The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by law as it presently exists or may hereafter be amended, any person or entity (an “Indemnified Person”) who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to or is otherwise involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was a member or any partner, member, director, trustee, manager, officer or employee of a member (each, a “Member Party”) or an officer of the Company or, while a Member Party or an officer of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise, nonprofit entity or other entity of any type, including service with respect to any employee benefit plan, whether the basis of such Proceeding is alleged action in an official capacity as a Member Party or an officer or in any other capacity while serving at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
5
such Indemnified Person in such Proceeding; provided that, as provided in the Fourth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization for Tribune Company and its Subsidiaries Proposed by the Debtors, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors, Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co., L.P., and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., filed pursuant to Section 1121(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, as amended (the “Plan of Reorganization”), no such indemnification or reimbursement rights shall apply to any LBO-Related Causes of Action (as defined in the Plan of Reorganization) arising prior to December 8, 2008. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.1(c), the Company shall be required to indemnify an Indemnified Person in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) commenced by or on behalf of such Indemnified Person only if the commencement of such Proceeding (or part thereof) by the Indemnified Person was authorized in advance by the Member. The Company hereby agrees: (i) that it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., in the event any Indemnified Person has the right to receive indemnification from one or more sponsors, affiliates or third parties, the Company’s obligations to such Indemnified Person are primary); and (ii) that it shall be required to pay the full amount of expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such Indemnified Person in connection with any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition as required by the terms of this Agreement, without regard to (A) any rights such Indemnified Person may have, or the exercise of any such rights by such Indemnified Person, against any other sponsors, affiliates or third parties or (B) any advance or payment made by such sponsors, affiliates or third parties on behalf of such Indemnified Person with respect to any claim for which such Indemnified Person is entitled to indemnification from the Company; and (iii) that it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases such sponsors or affiliates from any and all claims against such sponsors or affiliates for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof.
(b) Prepayment of Expenses. The Company shall pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by an Indemnified Person in connection with any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that such payment of expenses in advance of the final disposition of the Proceeding shall be made only upon receipt of an undertaking by the Indemnified Person to repay all amounts advanced if it should be ultimately determined that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to be indemnified under this Section 8.1 or otherwise.
(c) Claims by Indemnified Persons. If a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses under this Section 8.1 is not paid in full within thirty (30) days after a written claim therefor by the Indemnified Person has been received by the Company (and any undertaking required under Section 8.1(b)), the Indemnified Person may file suit to recover the unpaid amount of such claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Company to recover an advancement of expenses, the Indemnified Person shall be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting or defending such claim. In any such action, the Company shall have the burden of proving that the Indemnified Person is not entitled to the requested indemnification or advancement of expenses under the terms of this Agreement and applicable law.
(d) Indemnification of Employees and Agents. The Company may indemnify and advance expenses to any person who was or is made or is threatened to be
6
made or is otherwise involved in any Proceeding by reason of the fact that such person, or a person for whom such person is the legal representative, is or was an employee or agent of the Company or, while an employee or agent of the Company, is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise, nonprofit entity or other entity of any type, including service with respect to any employee benefit plan, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such Proceeding. The ultimate determination of entitlement to indemnification of persons who are non-officer employees or agents shall be made in such manner as is determined by the Member in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company shall not be required to indemnify a person described therein in connection with a Proceeding initiated by or on behalf of such person if the Proceeding was not authorized in advance by the Member.
(e) Advancement of Expenses of Employees and Agents. The Company may pay the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by an employee or agent in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Member.
(f) Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person or entity by this Section 8.1 shall not be exclusive of any other rights which such person or entity may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of this Agreement, decision of the Member, agreement or otherwise.
(g) Other Indemnification. Except as provided in Section 8.1(a), the Company’s obligation under the provisions of this Section 8.1, if any, to indemnify any person who was or is serving at its request as a director, officer, trustee, manager, employee or agent of another corporation or of a partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise, nonprofit entity or other entity of any type, including service with respect to any employee benefit plan, shall be reduced by any amount such person collects as indemnification from such other corporation or such partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust, enterprise, nonprofit entity or other entity of any type; provided that no Indemnified Person shall have the obligation to reduce, offset, allocate, pursue or apportion any indemnification advancement, contribution or insurance coverage among multiple parties possessing such duties to such Indemnified Person prior to the Company’s satisfaction of its obligations under the provisions of this Section 8.1.
(h) Insurance. The Member or an officer of the Company may, to the full extent permitted by law as it presently exists, or may hereafter be amended from time to time, authorize an appropriate officer or officers to purchase and maintain, at the Company’s expense, insurance: (i) to indemnify the Company for any obligation which it incurs as a result of the indemnification of any member, officer, employee or agent under the provisions of this Section 8.1; and (ii) to indemnify or insure any Member Party, officer, employee or agent against liability in instances in which they may not otherwise be indemnified by the Company under the provisions of this Section 8.1.
7
(i) Amendment or Repeal. Any repeal or modification of the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.1, or adoption of any provision of this Agreement inconsistent with this Section 8.1, shall not adversely affect any right or protection hereunder of any person or entity in respect of any act or omission occurring prior to the time of such repeal, modification or adoption of any inconsistent provision. The rights provided hereunder shall inure to the benefit of any Indemnified Person and such person’s or entity’s heirs, executors, administrators, receivers, trustees, successors, assignees and transferees.
8.2 Limit on Liability of Member. The indemnification set forth in this Agreement shall in no event cause the Member to incur any liability or obligation to any Indemnified Person, the Company or any other third party.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
10.1 Creditors. None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be for the benefit of, or enforceable by, any creditor of the Member or of the Company. No creditor who makes a loan to the Member or to the Company may have or acquire, solely as a result of making such loan, any membership interest or interest in the profits or property of the Company, other than such membership interest or interest in the profits or property of the Company that may be expressly granted to such creditor, with the written consent of the Member or an officer of the Company, pursuant to the terms of such loan.
10.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement with respect to the affairs of the Company and the conduct of its business, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or written.
10.3 Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.
10.4 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, supplemented or modified only by a written agreement executed by the Member.
10.5 Binding Effect; Benefit. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Member and the Company, all Indemnified Persons and their respective estates, heirs, legal or personal representatives, executors, administrators, receivers, trustees, successors, assignees and/or transferees.

10.8 Terms Generally. The definitions of terms in this Agreement shall apply equally to the singular and plural forms of the terms defined. The term “and/or” is used herein to mean both “and” as well as “or.” The use of “and/or” in certain contexts in no respect qualifies or modifies the use of the terms “and” or “or” in others. “Or” shall not be interpreted to be exclusive unless the context otherwise requires; and “and” shall not be interpreted to require the conjunctive, in each case unless the context otherwise requires. The terms “include” and

“including” are to be construed as non-exclusive (so that, by way of example and for the avoidance of doubt, “including” shall mean “including without limitation”), in each case, unless the context otherwise requires.
