AGREEMENT

This Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between A. H. Belo Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“AHC”), Belo Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Belo”), and the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation, a United States government corporation (“PBGC,” and collectively with AHC and Belo, the “Parties”), and is effective on the first date that each of the Parties has signed this Agreement (the “Effective Date”).

WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, PBGC is a wholly-owned United States government corporation established under Section 4002 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), 29 U.S.C. § 1302, to administer the pension plan termination insurance program created by Title IV of ERISA, 29 U.S.C. §§ 1301-1461; and

WHEREAS, AHC is a publicly-traded corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, which maintains its headquarters at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000; and

WHEREAS, Belo is a publicly-traded corporation incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware, which maintains its headquarters at 000 Xxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxx 00000; and

WHEREAS, AHC is the contributing sponsor (as that term is defined in ERISA § 4001(a)(13)) of the A. H. Belo Pension Plan I and the A. H. Belo Pension Plan II (each an “AHC Plan,” and together, the “AHC Plans”); and

WHEREAS, Belo is, and has been at all relevant times, the contributing sponsor (as that term is defined in ERISA § 4001(a)(13)) of The G. B. Dealey Retirement Pension Plan (the “GB Dealey Plan”) (together, with the AHC Plans, the “Plans”), which provides benefits for certain current and former employees of Belo and other members of Belo’s controlled group within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA (any such member, including Belo, a “Belo Controlled Group Member”); and

WHEREAS, the Plans are, and have been at all relevant times, tax-qualified defined benefit pension plans (within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), whose benefits are insured by PBGC under ERISA § 4022; and

WHEREAS, on or about February 8, 2008, AHC became a separate publicly-traded corporation as a result of a corporate spin-off from Belo (the “2008 Spin-off”); and

WHEREAS, on or about October 6, 2010, AHC and Belo entered into an agreement (the “2010 Transfer Agreement”), whereby effective January 1, 2011, Belo transferred approximately 55% to 60% of the GB Dealey Plan’s assets and liabilities to the AHC Plans (the “Transfer,” and

collectively with the 2008 Spin-off and the 2010 Transfer Agreement, the “Transactions”), including an initial transfer of 95% of the estimated assets allocable to the AHC Plans, to be followed by a “true-up” transfer of assets from the GB Dealey Plan to the AHC Plans, pursuant to the 2010 Transfer Agreement; and

WHEREAS, PBGC has reviewed the Transactions and the Parties have discussed the funding status of each Plan; and

WHEREAS, PBGC, AHC and Belo have reached an understanding with respect to the Transactions under which, inter alia, AHC will make certain contributions to the AHC Plans in addition to those otherwise required by law.

NOW THEREFORE, AHC and Belo, as applicable, severally not jointly, and PBGC, for good and valuable consideration set out herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, agree as follows:

1. Additional Contributions to the AHC Plans

1.1 In addition to making any installments or other contributions to the AHC Plans otherwise required under Code §§ 412 and 430 (including, without limitation, Code § 430(j)(3)) (“Required Contributions”), AHC will contribute to the AHC Plans a total of $30 million in the aggregate (collectively, the “Additional Contributions”), payable in an initial installment of $20 million due on or before March 31, 2011 (the “Initial Additional Contribution”), and in two additional installments of $5 million each due on or before December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2013, respectively. AHC may allocate the Additional Contributions between the AHC Plans in AHC’s sole discretion.

1.2 AHC agrees that it will not at any time elect to create or increase any prefunding balance (as defined in Code § 430(f)(6)) for either AHC Plan by (a) all or any part of any Additional Contribution contributed to either AHC Plan, or (b) any portion of any excess described in Code § 430(f)(6)(B)(i) that is directly or indirectly attributable to any Additional Contribution that has been contributed (in either case, an “Election”). AHC’s obligation not to make an Election is continuing and will survive the termination of AHC’s other obligations under this Agreement. AHC agrees that in the event that AHC makes an Election, AHC will be obligated to contribute to the applicable AHC Plan the amount so elected, the liability for such contribution will be immediately due and payable to such AHC Plan upon the making of such Election without notice or demand, and such liability may be enforced by PBGC on behalf of such AHC Plan. Such obligation will be in addition to all other obligations of AHC under this Agreement.

1.3 AHC may, at any time and in its sole discretion, prepay any Additional Contribution. In addition, each of AHC and Belo will each be entitled, in its sole discretion, to take advantage of any funding relief available to it under the Preservation of Access to Care for Medicare Beneficiaries and Pension Funding Relief Act of 2010 and/or subsequent legislation, and applicable guidance thereunder. To any extent permitted by law, all or any part of any Additional Contribution may be designated as made for the plan year immediately preceding the plan year in which actually made.

1.4 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if making any Additional Contribution for a plan year would cause the maximum amount deductible limit under Code § 404 or a successor Code provision (the “Section 404 Limit”) with respect to both AHC Plans for that plan year to be exceeded, then AHC may, in lieu of paying all of such Additional Contribution directly to either (or both) of the AHC Plans on or before its due date: (a) pay directly to either (or both) of the AHC Plans on or before such due date that portion of such Additional Contribution, if any, that would not cause the Section 404 Limit with respect to both AHC Plans to be exceeded; and (b) pay the remaining portion of such Additional Contribution into an escrow account reasonably acceptable to PBGC, to be held in escrow until the first plan year in which payment of such remaining portion to one or more of the AHC Plans (as directed by AHC) would not cause the Section 404 Limit of both AHC Plans to be exceeded.

1.5 (a) If (i) the plan administrator for each AHC Plan issues a notice of intent to terminate to each affected party (within the meaning of Title IV of ERISA) (other than PBGC) in compliance with ERISA § 4041(a)(2) and 29 C.F.R. § 4041.23 (with respect to either AHC Plan, a “NOIT”); (ii) AHC demonstrates to PBGC’s reasonable satisfaction the wherewithal to satisfy all benefit liabilities under both AHC Plans (such benefit liabilities for each AHC Plan to be determined by PBGC in accordance with applicable law and may be estimated); and (iii) a copy of the issued NOIT for each AHC Plan is provided to PBGC, then AHC may suspend its obligation to make any Additional Contributions to the AHC Plans unless and until (y) PBGC concludes in writing to AHC that the plan administrator for either AHC Plan has failed to comply with any requirement of ERISA § 4041, or applicable final PBGC regulations thereunder, with respect to a standard termination of such AHC Plan (any such conclusion, for purposes of this Agreement only and without any application to any administrative determination by PBGC with respect to such standard termination, to be reasonably issued), or (z) the plan administrator for either AHC Plan has abandoned the standard termination process by written notice to PBGC (the date on which PBGC has given written notice to the plan administrator for either AHC Plan of such conclusion or on which the plan administrator for either AHC Plan has given written notice to PBGC of such abandonment, the “Notification Date”).

(b) Any and all suspended Additional Contributions that, but for the operation of Section 1.5(a), would have otherwise come due under Section 1.1, shall become due and payable on the 30^th day after the Notification Date, and each subsequent Additional Contribution will be made as it becomes due and payable under Section 1.1.

1.6 (a) In the event that any AHC Plan is merged into or consolidated with another plan sponsored by AHC or a member of AHC’s controlled group, as those terms are defined in Title IV of ERISA (each such member, including AHC, an “AHC Controlled Group Member”), or another plan is merged into or consolidated with any AHC Plan, the obligations of AHC under this Agreement will apply to the plan that results from such a merger or consolidation, and to each plan in a series of such mergers or consolidations (a “Merged Plan”) to the same extent as if the merger had not occurred, until such obligations terminate under Section 4.1.

(b) In the event that an AHC Plan is merged into or consolidated with a plan that is not sponsored by an AHC Controlled Group Member, or an AHC Plan otherwise ceases to be sponsored by any AHC Controlled Group Member, AHC will either (at AHC’s election)

(i) continue to make any remaining Additional Contributions under this Agreement in full to the remaining AHC Plan sponsored by an AHC Controlled Group Member, and cease to have any obligation under this Agreement with respect to the plan no longer sponsored by any AHC Controlled Group Member, or (ii) negotiate with PBGC to make such modifications to this Agreement that may be necessary to ensure the continued fair and reasonable application of any remaining Additional Contributions due under this Agreement, provided, however, that in no event will any such modification require AHC to make any payments in excess of those otherwise required, or impose upon AHC terms and conditions materially different than those required, under this Agreement as originally in effect.

(c) In the event that both AHC Plans cease to be sponsored by an AHC Controlled Group Member, and without limiting AHC’s right to consummate a merger or consolidation involving any AHC Plan, AHC and PBGC agree to make modifications to this Agreement that may be necessary to ensure the continued fair and reasonable application of this Agreement, provided, however, that in no event will any such modification require AHC to make any payments in excess of those otherwise required, or impose upon AHC terms and conditions materially different than those required, under this Agreement as originally in effect.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed as limiting AHC’s right to consummate a merger, consolidation or sale of its or any of its subsidiaries’ assets.

1.7 This Agreement will apply in the event of any spinoff or transfer of plan assets or liabilities that involves any AHC Plan or Merged Plan, and as soon as practicable before such spinoff or transfer, AHC and PBGC will agree on modifications of this Agreement that may be necessary to ensure the continued fair and reasonable application of this Agreement, provided, however, that in no event will any such modification require AHC to make any payments in excess of those otherwise required, or impose upon AHC terms and conditions materially different than those required, under this Agreement as originally in effect.

1.8 Except as provided in Sections 1.6 and 1.7, AHC’s obligations under this Agreement will not be affected by any change in any AHC Plan’s contributing sponsor or the membership of such a contributing sponsor’s controlled group, as those terms are defined in Title IV of ERISA. Except as provided in Section 3, nothing in this Agreement will affect PBGC’s ability to exercise any right, seek any remedy, or enforce any provision under Title IV of ERISA or other applicable law in connection with any contemplated or consummated transaction associated with such a change.

2. Information and Notice

2.1 For the period beginning January 1, 2011, and ending December 31, 2015 (notwithstanding any earlier termination of AHC and Belo obligations under Section 4.1 of this Agreement), Belo will provide the following to PBGC with respect to the GB Dealey Plan:

(a) The most recent final actuarial valuation report within ten days after the Effective Date, and subsequent actuarial valuation reports within 45 days after delivery in final form to Belo; and

(a) With respect to each AHC Plan, a written statement of the amount and date of each Additional Contribution and Required Contribution made, within 30 days after payment; and

(b) A copy of any public filing made by AHC with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) or with the New York Stock Exchange, within five business days after such filing; provided that any such filing made by AHC with the SEC pursuant to its Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval system, or any successor filing system (“XXXXX”) shall be deemed to be provided to the PBGC as of the time such filing is filed or furnished by XXXXX; and

(c) A copy of any written report from AHC to AHC’s lender(s), within five business days after the date on which such report was made, regarding any covenant violation(s) under any loan agreement(s) for $5,000,000 or more that has not been cured or waived and that serves as the basis for the acceleration of debt under such agreement(s).

2.3 Failure of AHC or Belo to timely provide information required under Section 2.1 or Section 2.2 shall not constitute nonperformance of such Party’s obligations under this Agreement unless such Party fails to provide such information within 10 business days of its receipt of notification from the PBGC of such failure.

3. Forbearance; Release

3.1 So long as no Default (as defined in Section 6) has occurred and is continuing, PBGC will forbear until the Release Date (as defined in Section 3.2) from (a) pursuing any claim or otherwise taking any action against any Belo Controlled Group Member or AHC Controlled Group Member to enforce ERISA §§ 4062(e) and/or 4063, or any successor provision or applicable regulations thereunder, arising out of or relating to the 2008 Spin-off, and/or (b) instituting proceedings directly related to the Transactions to terminate the GB Dealey Plan or any AHC Plan pursuant to ERISA § 4042(a)(4) or any successor provision or applicable regulations thereunder.

3.2 Effective upon the date of the timely contribution of the Initial Additional Contribution by AHC to one or both of the AHC Plans (the “Release Date”), PBGC agrees (a) not to pursue any claim or otherwise take any action against any Belo Controlled Group Member or AHC Controlled Group Member to enforce ERISA §§ 4062(e) and/or 4063, or any successor provision or applicable regulations thereunder, arising out of or relating to the 2008 Spin-off (the “4062(e)/4063 Claims”), and (b) not to institute proceedings directly related to the Transactions

to terminate the GB Dealey Plan or any AHC Plan pursuant to ERISA § 4042(a)(4) or any successor provision or applicable regulations thereunder. For purposes of this Section 3.2 and Section 3.3, if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code has been commenced by or against AHC prior to the 91^st day following the date on which the Initial Additional Contribution has been paid to the AHC Plans, the Release Date will not be deemed to occur until the Initial Additional Contribution is no longer subject to avoidance in whole or in part under 11 U.S.C. § 547(b).

3.3 Effective on the Release Date, PBGC will be deemed to have released and forever discharged each Belo Controlled Group Member and AHC Controlled Group Member, and each such member’s officers, directors, employees, shareholders, subsidiaries, affiliates and representatives from any and all 4062(e)/4063 Claims.

(b) For purposes of clause (a)(i) of this Section 4.1, if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code has been commenced by or against AHC prior to the 91st day following the date on which the last Additional Contribution has been paid to the AHC Plans, the Final Payment Date will not be deemed to occur until no Additional Contributions are subject to avoidance in whole or in part under 11 U.S.C. § 547(b).

(c) For purposes of clause (a)(ii) of this Section 4.1, termination of the AHC Plans in standard terminations will not be deemed to occur until the later of (i) the 180th day after the date on which PBGC receives Form 501—Post Distribution Certifications for both AHC Plans indicating that each has terminated in a standard termination under ERISA § 4041(b), or (ii) if PBGC has, by such 180th day, issued audit findings or a notice of noncompliance with respect to either such standard termination, the date on which all such audit findings have been complied with or rescinded or on which all such notices of noncompliance have been rescinded.
