Promotora de Informaciones, S.A., a Spanish sociedad anónima (“PRISA”), and Liberty Acquisition
Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Liberty”).
W I T N E S S E T H :
WHEREAS, each of PRISA and Liberty desire to enter into the strategic business combination
transaction provided for herein for the purpose of effecting an increase of capital in kind of
PRISA through an exchange of securities involving the delivery of all outstanding Liberty shares
and warrants against newly issued shares of PRISA, which will be reflected in the books and
accounts of PRISA as the subscription of such newly issued shares by a depositary bank acting in a
purely fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the actual owners of the new shares of PRISA (the
former share and warrant holders of Liberty) which, upon receipt of such shares, will issue
American depositary shares to Liberty’s former share and warrant holders;
WHEREAS, notwithstanding that the above-referenced increase of capital in kind of PRISA does
not legally require the application of preemptive rights in favor of the existing shareholders of
PRISA, the CNMV, taking into that account the parties to this Agreement desire to carry out the
Reorganization (as defined below), considers it advisable to grant certain preemptive rights in
favor of the existing shareholders of PRISA; and for such purposes, prior to effecting the
Reorganization PRISA will submit to its shareholders for their approval an increase of capital in
cash, granting the shareholders of PRISA the opportunity to subscribe for new shares on the terms
described in this Agreement;
WHEREAS, for the above purposes, (i) Liberty will, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions set forth herein, merge with and into a newly formed, wholly owned Subsidiary of Liberty
incorporated in the Commonwealth of Virginia (“Liberty Virginia”) under and in accordance with the
Virginia Stock Corporation Act (as amended, the “VSCA”) and the Delaware General Corporation Law
(as amended, the “DGCL”), with Liberty Virginia surviving such merger (the “Reincorporation
Merger”), and (ii) Liberty Virginia and PRISA will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions
set forth herein, undertake a statutory share exchange pursuant to the Spanish Corporation Law of
1989 (Texto Refundido de xx Xxx de Sociedades Anónimas aprobado por el Real Decreto Legislativo
1564/1989) (as amended, the “SCL”) and the VSCA, such that shares of Liberty Virginia will be
exchanged for newly issued shares of PRISA, as a result of which Liberty Virginia will become a
wholly owned Subsidiary of PRISA (the “Share Exchange” and, together with the Reincorporation
Merger, the “Reorganization”);
WHEREAS, the Reorganization is subject to certain conditions precedent set forth herein,
including, among others, the requirements: (i) that fewer than thirty percent of the public
shareholders of Liberty elect to exercise their right to require Liberty to redeem their shares in
connection with the Reorganization, (ii) that the PRISA Control Group (as defined herein) maintain,
directly or indirectly, subsequent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, a
minimum ownership share greater than or equal to thirty percent of the issued and outstanding share
capital of PRISA on a fully diluted basis, (iii) that the Reorganization shall have been approved
on the terms set forth herein by, and the necessary filings made with, the Spanish regulatory
authorities and the registration of the PRISA Shares to
be issued in the Reorganization shall have been cleared by the applicable United States
regulatory authorities (iv) that the PRISA Shareholder Approval, the Liberty Shareholder Approval
and the Liberty Warrantholder Approval (as such terms are defined herein) shall have been obtained;
WHEREAS, for the purposes of ascertaining the view of the Spanish stock market regulatory
authorities, PRISA has discussed the terms and conditions of the Reorganization with the CNMV,
having prepared together with Liberty, for those purposes, the transaction summary attached hereto
as Annex I;
WHEREAS, it is the intent of the parties hereto that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
the Reincorporation Merger shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section
368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” for
the purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code;
WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition to Liberty’s willingness to enter into this
Agreement, certain shareholders of PRISA are entering into an agreement (the “PRISA Support
Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement whereby, among other things, such
shareholders have agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Liberty
to vote their shares of PRISA in favor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Ancillary Agreements;
WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition of PRISA’s willingness to enter into this
Agreement, the Sponsors are entering into an agreement with PRISA (the “Sponsors Support
Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, whereby, among other things, such
Persons have agreed to vote all of the Liberty Warrants held by such Persons in favor of the
Warrant Amendment Agreement;
WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition of PRISA’s willingness to enter into this
Agreement, Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx and Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx are entering into an agreement with PRISA (the
“Sponsor Indemnification Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement whereby,
among other things, such Persons have agreed, from and after the Exchange Effective Time, to
indemnify PRISA and its Affiliates with respect to certain matters; and
WHEREAS, the parties, having completed a due diligence process with respect to the business
activities of the other party and having found no impediment to proceeding with the Reorganization,
desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the
Reorganization and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Reorganization.

requesting such exchange shall pay to the Exchange Agent in advance any transfer or other taxes
required by reason of the issuance of ADRs representing PRISA ADSs in any name other than that of

required for any other reason, or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that
such tax has been paid or is not payable.
(d) After the Exchange Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the stock transfer books
of Liberty Virginia of the shares of Liberty Virginia Common Stock or Liberty Warrants that were
issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Exchange Effective Time by any Person that was a
registered holder of such shares prior to the Exchange Effective Time.
(e) No dividend or distribution with respect to the Per Share Consideration shall be payable
on or with respect to any fractional share, and fractional share interests shall not entitle the
owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of PRISA. In lieu of the issuance of
any such fractional share, PRISA shall pay to each former Liberty Virginia Stockholder or Liberty
Warrantholder who otherwise would be entitled to receive a PRISA ADS representing such fractional
share an amount in cash (the ”Cash”) (i) in the case of a fraction of a PRISA Class A Ordinary
Share, determined by multiplying (x) the average closing price of PRISA ordinary shares on the SIBE
for the ten full SIBE trading days prior to the Closing Date (excluding the Closing Date) by (y)
the fraction of a share (rounded to the nearest hundredth when expressed in decimal form) which
such holder would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to Section 3.5(a) and (ii) in
the case of a fraction of a PRISA Convertible Non-Voting Share, equal to the face amount
corresponding to such fraction of a PRISA Convertible Non-Voting Share.
-19-
(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the Liberty Virginia
Stockholders or the Liberty Warrantholders for six months after the Exchange Effective Time shall
be returned to PRISA. Any former Liberty Virginia Stockholders or Liberty Warrantholders who have
not theretofore complied with this Article IV shall thereafter look only to PRISA for
payment of the Per Share Consideration, Warrant Consideration, any Cash and any PRISA Distribution,
in each case, without any interest thereon. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Liberty,
Liberty Virginia, PRISA, the Exchange Agent, the Depositary or any other person shall be liable to
any former holder of shares of Liberty Virginia Common Stock or Liberty Warrants for any amount
delivered in good faith to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or
similar Laws.
(g) In the event any Liberty Virginia Common Certificate or Liberty Warrant shall have been
lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming such
Liberty Virginia Common Certificate or Liberty Warrant to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if
reasonably required by PRISA, the posting by such person of a bond in such amount as PRISA may
determine is reasonably necessary as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with
respect to such Liberty Virginia Common Certificate or Liberty Warrant, the Exchange Agent will
issue, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Liberty Virginia Common Certificate or
Liberty Warrant, the Per Share Consideration or Warrant Consideration and any Cash to which the
holder is entitled.
(h) PRISA shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from the consideration otherwise payable
pursuant to this Agreement or the Warrant Amendment Agreement to any Liberty Virginia Stockholder
or Liberty Warrantholder such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the
making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of applicable Tax Law. To the extent that
amounts are so withheld by PRISA, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this
Agreement and the Warrant Amendment Agreement as having been paid to the Liberty Virginia
Stockholder or Liberty Warrantholder in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made by
PRISA.

assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with
respect to this Agreement, (i) the defense of sovereign immunity, (ii) any claim that it is not
personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the
failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 12.10, (iii) that it or its
property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process
commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment,
attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (iv) to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Law that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in any such

provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other
remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
12.12 Disclosure Schedules; Knowledge.
(a) Inclusion of information in the PRISA Disclosure Schedule or the Liberty Disclosure

of liability under any applicable Law or that such information contained therein is (i) material to
the business, operations, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of a
party, or (ii) a representation or warranty that a potential consequence will occur as described.
The Schedules set forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular section or
subsection of this Agreement to which the items or information in such schedule relates;

a Schedule pertaining to representations and warranties and covenants of a party shall be deemed to
apply to each other section or subsection of such party’s Schedules pertaining to its
representations, warranties and covenants to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on its face
from a reading of such disclosure that it is relevant to such other sections or subsections of the
party’s Schedules.
(b) Notwithstanding the failure of a representation or warranty contained in Article
VI or Article VII, as applicable, to be true and accurate, the party making such
representation or warranty shall be deemed not to have so breached if the other party or any of its
Affiliates had actual or constructive knowledge of such breach or the facts giving rise to such
breach, including knowledge gained from materials made available to it during such party’s due
diligence investigation. Section 12.12 of the PRISA Disclosure Schedule identifies the
materials included in the electronic data room made available to Liberty in connection with its due
diligence investigation the contents of which materials the parties shall be deemed to have actual
