PRINTING AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) BETWEEN AMERICAN MEDIA, INC. AND QUAD/GRAPHICS, INC.

Exhibit 10.3

(the “Agreement”)

BETWEEN

AMERICAN MEDIA, INC.

AND

QUAD/GRAPHICS, INC.

AMERICAN MEDIA INC. (hereinafter referred to as “Publisher”), a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and QUAD/GRAPHICS, INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Wisconsin (hereinafter referred to as “Printer”), do hereby agree upon the following terms and conditions:

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, Publisher wishes to contract with Printer for certain printing and production services to be provided with respect to the publication of Star magazine (the “Magazine”) more particularly described herein; and

WHEREAS, Printer wishes to provide such services to Publisher, on the terms and conditions hereof.

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Statement of Work

1.01	Work. Subject to the provisions hereinafter set forth in this agreement and the exhibits annexed hereto and incorporated herein (together the “Agreement”):


Exhibit A:		Star Magazine Projections

from time to time require, and (ii) platemaking, printing, binding, finishing, and mailing and newsstand preparation and loading as required for the production of the Magazine in accordance with the specifications set forth in Exhibit “B”, as the same may be modified as hereinafter permitted. Printer shall furnish all necessary materials and supplies therefor except those that Publisher, pursuant to the terms hereof, furnishes. Notwithstanding any provision hereof to the contrary, Publisher may shift the Adjustable Work to another commercial printer if there is a change to the method of distributing the Adjustable Work currently used by Publisher and Publisher provides an officer’s certificate that such change would otherwise result in a significant increase in distribution costs to Publisher. The services and the obligations undertaken to be performed by Printer under this Article 1.01 are hereinafter referred to as the “Work”. “Adjustable Work” is work that relates solely to those copies of the Magazine (the number of which shall not exceed ***) that are projected to be printed at the Oklahoma Plant and sent to Publisher’s Colorado distribution hub.

1.02

Furnished Material. Publisher shall have the right to supply Printer, in a form suitable for binding or application, one or more pre-printed advertiser or editorial inserts, signatures, wraps, bind-in cards, blow-in cards or dot whacks which Printer shall insert into or apply onto, issues of the Magazine as directed by Publisher. Such furnished material will be stored without charge for *** after receipt by Printer. Furnished material stored for over *** shall be subject to the skid storage charge specified in Exhibit “C”. Costs resulting from the use of furnished material will be billed to Publisher in accordance with the prices in Exhibit “C”, or if such prices are not included in Exhibit “C”, at the prices agreed to by Printer and Publisher prior to the printing of the furnished material and their delivery to Printer. Such prices shall be developed using the same methodology and criteria as were used to establish the prices set forth in Exhibit “C”, the Price Schedule.

ARTICLE II

Term

2.01

Term. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the term of this Agreement shall commence as of March 26, 2004 with the production of the April 12, 2004 issue of the Magazine as directed by Publisher and end with the production of the April 7, 2014 issue of the Magazine, or equivalently, the issue with a production cycle starting on or about March 21, 2014 (the “Initial Term”). Publisher has the exclusive right to extend the Term of this Agreement pursuant to Articles 2.02 and 2.03 below. When used herein, “Contract Year” shall refer to each 12-month period commencing April 1 during the Term hereof.

2.02

Right to Extend Initial Term. At any time prior to April 1, 2013, Publisher may, in its sole discretion, extend this Agreement for two (2) additional years (the “Extended Term” and any such Extended Term, if any, together with the Initial Term and any Further Extended Term shall constitute the “Term”) by notifying Printer in writing of its intent to so extend the Initial Term.

If Publisher chooses to exercise its right to extend the Initial Term as provided in this Article 2.02 and upon written notification to the Printer as such, Publisher agrees that any Breach that has occurred prior to the date of such written notification shall be considered cured and shall not

apply towards Publisher’s termination rights (i.e. re-setting the calendar to begin as of the date of Publisher’s extension letter).

2.03

Right to Extend Beyond Extended Term. Provided Publisher has exercised its right to extend the Term of this Agreement beyond the Initial Term pursuant to Article 2.02, and Printer is given no less than one year’s advance notice prior to this Agreement’s then current expiration date, Publisher has the exclusive right, but not the obligation, to further extend the Term in increments of a minimum of one year terms but not to exceed five years in total (“Further Extended Terms”). By way of example only, Publisher may extend the Term (after the Extended Term) for up to five consecutive one year terms or for one five year term or for a two, three or four year term. In consideration of the Further Extended Terms, Printer will implement a reduction in the then current manufacturing prices in Exhibit “C”, not to include ink or, if applicable, paper or freight. The price reduction will be effective commencing with the first day of the first Further Extended Term. The price reduction shall be calculated by multiplying the number of years plus any fraction of a year, of the corresponding extension, by *** percent. Printer shall remain entitled to implement the annual price adjustment, pursuant to the provisions of Article 7, on April 1st of each year. If Publisher exercises its aforementioned right to extend the Term of this Agreement (after the Extended Term) by less than the five-year maximum, then Publisher’s rights under this Article shall continue, subject to a cumulative maximum extension of five years and a cumulative maximum price reduction of *** percent (***%). In any event, this Article does not give Publisher the exclusive right to extend the Term of this Agreement beyond production of the issue with a publication date later than the first week of April 2021.

ARTICLE III

Quantity of Work

3.01	Representative Magazine Pages and Print Orders. The paginations set forth in Exhibit “A” and the representative production schedules set forth in Exhibit “E” have been established on the basis of estimates for the Magazine’s estimated printed pages and print order for the first Contract Year.

As more particularly described herein, Publisher reserves the right to adjust upward or downward the Exhibit “A” estimates of printed pages and print order for the aforementioned Contract Year and to update Exhibit “A” for subsequent Contract Years, provided that this provision does not give Publisher the right to decrease estimates due to contracting with other printers to perform the Work (excluding Adjustable Work that may be moved from the Oklahoma Plant in accordance with Section 1.01 and excluding work on the Magazine that is performed by any other printer with respect to work that was previously performed by a Terminated Plant).

The purpose of Exhibit “E”, the production schedule, is to demonstrate the agreed to parameters within which both parties are to work.

3.02

Forecasts. Within thirty (30) days after the commencement of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter (but no less than once per Contract Year and in any case at least thirty (30) days prior to the end of the period covered by the previous forecast), Publisher shall submit to Printer an updated forecast for the next twelve (12) months for the Work hereunder, including without

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 3 of 25

limitation, the Magazine’s print orders, pages, and mailing and newsstand dispatch dates. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of such updated forecast, Printer shall develop the necessary manufacturing schedules for the production of the Work forecasted for the next twelve (12) months. Publisher may update such forecast at any time during the Term.

3.03

Publisher Changes in Specifications. If at any time Publisher desires to make commercially reasonable material changes in the specifications set forth in this Agreement, including but not limited to a request by Publisher to incorporate new technology contemplated by Article 21, addition or deletion of an issue date, special insert requirements, changes in the number of pages, 5% print order variation, special color requirements, testing requirements, trim size change, binding methodology, Publisher will give Printer reasonable advance notice in writing of such change(s) prior to the commencement of Work on the issue of the Magazine affected thereby and Printer will accommodate Publisher’s request(s) and cooperate with Publisher in putting such changes into effect.

In the event any such change results in an increase or decrease in the cost of performing the Work the prices for the Work shall be adjusted to fairly reflect such increase or decrease. Any new price categories required by reason of such change shall be developed using the same methodology and criteria as was used to establish the prices set forth in Exhibit “C”, the Price Schedule. In addition, should such change result in Printer’s inability to use any materials on hand or ordered for Publisher in the production of Publisher’s Work, Publisher will pay Printer reasonable costs associated with such materials and their disposition provided that Printer delivers to Publisher appropriate documentation supporting such costs.

If the change(s) requested by Publisher is not within the reasonable capacity and performance capabilities of Printer’s existing equipment, its schedule and labor force, then within thirty (30) days after Publisher requests such change(s), Printer shall (i) notify Publisher if it is unable or unwilling to make the requested change(s), or (ii) present Publisher with a commercially reasonable plan to implement such change in the Plant(s) and include a timeframe for implementation. If Printer is unable or unwilling to accommodate a change under this Article 3.03, or should Printer fail to implement the requested change(s) within the implementation time frame, then Publisher shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon one hundred eighty (180) days written notice to Printer.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Publisher shall not be subject to rate increases as a result of any decrease in print order or any decline in the number of pages or frequency affecting the Magazine, unless or until the weekly print order for one of the Plant(s) is *** or fewer completed Magazines.

3.04

Production Schedules/Plans/Changes. The production schedules included as Exhibit “E” reflect the current understanding between Publisher and Printer on the production schedules at the four printing facilities scheduled to perform the Work. Provided Publisher gives Printer reasonable advance written notice, Printer shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to accommodate changes in production schedules, including but not limited to changes in print order and pages as required by Publisher. Printer shall schedule the most cost efficient manufacturing configuration by maximizing the use of the 48-page press form equipment to produce the Work based on the

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 4 of 25

prices in Exhibit “C”, the initial Magazine projections in Exhibit “A”, and the Production Schedule in Exhibit “E”. If Printer chooses to produce the Work using less cost effective equipment than the agreed upon manufacturing platform indicates (while adhering to the agreed upon dispatch schedules), then Printer’s invoice and paper consumption requirements shall nevertheless reflect the most cost efficient manufacturing plan.

Printer acknowledges and agrees that Publisher may add up to *** pages up to *** before press start and that Publisher may add from *** to *** pages up to *** before press date. Printer agrees to implement such changes at the prices and paper requirements set forth in Exhibit “C”, the Price Schedule and Paper Requirements.

Production operations taking place on a scheduled holiday of Printer, as set forth in Exhibit “K”, shall be subject to the holiday premiums set forth in the Price Schedule in Exhibit “C”. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Publisher provides to Printer at least thirty (30) days prior to a holiday an adjustment to the production schedule in order to avoid production on such holiday by Printer (where such adjustment is within Printer’s production capacity and does not conflict with Printer’s regular schedule) and Printer is unable to accommodate such adjustment and produces on a holiday, despite reasonable efforts to find alternative production scenarios, then the parties agree to equally share the holiday premiums.

3.05	Overruns or Underruns. For all product manufactured by Printer, Publisher will accept * under-runs. There will also be a * overrun allowance for all Work performed by Printer for Publisher.

ARTICLE IV

Quality of Work

4.01

Performance. Printer acknowledges that all services Printer undertakes to provide under this Agreement (including but not limited to the printing, binding, and mailing and newsstand preparation and loading in accordance with the specifications set forth in Exhibit “B”) and Printer’s timely adherence to the production schedules set forth in Exhibit “E” (which may be amended by mutual consent, from time to time) are of the essence of this Agreement and a major factor in inducing Publisher to enter into this Agreement.

Printer warrants that the print production quality of all cover and text pages, along with binding and finishing quality of all Work shall be performed in a competent, efficient and workmanlike manner and in accordance with the highest quality print industry standards. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the finished quality shall be subject to variation to the extent caused by any materials (including paper) supplied by the Publisher and any such variation will not be deemed a Breach hereunder. Printer also warrants that the completed product produced hereunder shall be of a standard of quality substantially equal to that exemplified by Exhibit “J”, Quality Control Standards for Printer. Because of differences in equipment and processes, and reasonable manufacturing variances due to normal production operations which are established by trade customs generally accepted in the printing industry, delivery of Work with reasonable variations in color between proofs and the completed job, or other similar manufacturing variances, shall not be deemed a Breach hereunder.

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 5 of 25

In addition, Exhibit “F” sets forth defects in print and binding quality which the Publisher considers unacceptable and not in conformity with Printer’s warranty described in the preceding paragraph. Items to be considered by Publisher for measuring the quality of the printed product shall include, without limitation, the following:


1.		Inking levels
2.		Registration of all colors
3.		Doubling, slurring of printed dot formation
4.		Moire’s
5.		Adherence to SWOP standards
6.		Color balance
7.		Print contrast
8.		Color match to supplied color guidance
9.		Margins, trimming and binding
10.		Bundling and Packing
11.		Adherence to the Magazine’s print order

Printer will place special attention and emphasis on all pages which the Publisher has designated as “Critical Reproduction”, (either editorial or advertising), i.e.: cover forms, crossover spreads, and page(s) which contain special or match colors. Publisher will alert Printer in writing (whether by mail, courier, facsimile or email) prior to actual press date of all “Critical Reproduction” pages. Publisher agrees to provide on-line proof approval on pages that Publisher has identified as Critical Reproduction pages. Prior to and during the actual printing of the issue, Printer will advise Publisher of any situation which could have, or is in fact having, a material adverse effect on the overall print quality.

Exhibit “F” will be mutually reviewed and revised by the parties once each calendar year, to include specific and definitive examples of the Publisher’s standards during the Term, together with a statement of comments by Publisher reasonably setting forth what Publisher deems unacceptable print quality as described above. Publisher shall provide the revised Exhibit “F” to Printer promptly upon completion of said revisions whereupon the revised Exhibit “F” shall be deemed incorporated in this Agreement in replacement of the immediately prior version.

Printer warrants that the Work shall be performed in accordance with the Production Schedule subject, however, to the timely submission by Publisher or suppliers of the materials required to be furnished by Publisher. If it becomes necessary for Printer to incur additional standard billable charges, including without limitation those relating to overtime, additional labor, press holding, stitcher holding, plates, press stops, press make readies, and/or stitcher make readies (collectively, “Delay Charges”), that directly result from a delay in the receipt by Printer of files, paper, inserts or wraps, delivery instructions, or from a failure by Publisher or any of its agents or contractors to perform any operation which Publisher is required to perform hereunder (and such delay in receipt of materials or such failure to perform is not primarily the result of any act or omission of Printer), Printer may charge, and Publisher shall pay, such Delay Charges that are actually and reasonably incurred by Printer; provided that (i) Printer uses commercially reasonable efforts to avoid incurring such Delay Charges, and (ii) Printer notifies Publisher (first by using best efforts to reach Publisher by live telephone conversation and then, in any case, by

Page 6 of 25

email) as soon as practicably feasible of any such delay in the receipt of materials and any such failure to perform. Printer agrees that it will attempt to so notify Publisher as soon as practically feasible or within at least ten (10) hours of the time at which Printer assigns the paper and/or inserts to the specific print job for which the Delay Charges would apply. No Delay Charges will be incurred without advance written approval from Publisher. In the absence of Publisher’s approval of the Delay Charges, delivery of the Work will be made as promptly as practicable consistent with Printer’s then available capacity and any failure to meet the Production Schedule in such situations will not be deemed a Breach of this Agreement so long as Printer notifies Publisher of the need for Delay Charges as soon as practicably feasible.

If Delay Charges are the direct result of any delay by Printer or suppliers of the materials required to be furnished by Printer or in order to fulfill Printer’s commitments per the Production Schedule, Exhibit “E”, such overtime shall be at Printer’s expense. To the extent Publisher incurs increased distribution costs as a result of Printer’s default of its obligations under this Agreement, Printer shall be liable for the commercially reasonable excess freight charges incurred by Publisher to meet on sale requirements, provided Publisher uses commercially reasonable efforts and cannot meet said requirements without incurring additional charges.

4.02	[Intentionally left blank]

4.03

Reimbursements for Ad Reproduction and Editorial Defects. Except with respect to Quality Breaches or Shipping and Mailing Breaches related to customer supplied inserts, Publisher’s sole and exclusive remedy for any Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach shall be to recover Printer’s invoiced manufacturing costs related to the defective page(s) or partial page (if associated with a fractional size ad) plus applicable paper costs; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall diminish Publisher’s right to: (i) be indemnified by Printer in accordance with Section 10.01, and (ii) count any such Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach as a Breach for purposes of determining whether Publisher may terminate this Agreement. The manufacturing cost per page (or partial page) shall be determined by dividing the total invoiced manufacturing cost of the issue (i.e. printing, ink, and binding) plus applicable paper costs, by the total number of pages in a copy of the issue to determine the cost per page. With respect to Quality Breaches or Shipping and Mailing Breaches related to customer supplied inserts, Publisher’s sole and exclusive remedy for such Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach shall be to recover Printer’s invoiced manufacturing cost relating thereto; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall diminish Publisher’s right to: (a) be indemnified by Printer in accordance with Section 10.01, and (b) count any such Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach as a Breach for the purpose of determining whether Publisher may terminate this Agreement. For ad reproduction defects, Printer shall not be liable to Publisher for cash rebates given by Publisher to an advertiser for defective page(s) or insert(s) that exceeds the manufacturing credits described above.

4.04

Limitation of Damages. Except as to the indemnification provisions set forth in Sections 10.01 (b) and (c) and 10.02 (b) and (c) of this Agreement, neither party shall be liable to the other party for any consequential, indirect, incidental, punitive or special damages, including without limitation, the loss of income, or revenue, or profits for any reason, whether rising out of breach of this Agreement, tort or any other theory of law or equity.

Page 7 of 25

4.05

Notices of Breach. Publisher shall notify Printer in writing of each Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach within thirty (30) days from the applicable “on sale” date of the issue of the Magazine affected by such Breach, and Publisher shall identify, with reasonable specificity, the nature of such Quality Breach or Shipping and Mailing Breach. Publisher shall notify Printer in writing of each Performance Breach or Severe Breach within thirty (30) days of becoming aware of such Breach, and Publisher shall identify, with reasonable specificity, the nature of such Performance Breach or Severe Breach. Publisher’s failure to notify Printer of any specific Breach within such specified period will constitute an acceptance of the Work affected by such Breach (if any) and a waiver of the specific occurrence of such Breach, and Publisher will not be able to count such Breach for the purpose of termination hereunder; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall diminish Publisher’s right to: (i) be indemnified by Printer in accordance with Section 10.01, and (ii) count any subsequent occurrence of such Breach for the purpose of determining whether Publisher may terminate this Agreement (provided that Publisher gives notice of such subsequent occurrence of such Breach to Printer in accordance with this paragraph). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the exact same Breach is repeated more than once in any thirty (30) day period, then no specified previous occurrence of such Breach shall be deemed to have occurred unless Publisher has provided Printer with written notice of such specified previous occurrence on or before the applicable “file due date” of the issue of the Magazine containing any subsequent occurrence of such Breach.

4.06	Definitions of Breach. For the purposes of this Agreement, the following capitalized terms shall have the following meanings:

“Quality Breach” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following in a material number of copies of any issue of the Magazine if caused primarily by Printer’s acts or omissions: (i) primary press defect (more particularly defined in Exhibits “F” and “J”); (ii) a major finishing defect (more particularly defined in Exhibits “F” and “J”); or (iii) any other breach of Printer’s obligations, representations or warranties hereunder which affects the quality or timeliness of the Work.

“Shipping and Mailing Breach” shall mean Printer’s tender of materially less than the pre-arranged number of copies of the Magazine (where the “pre-arranged number of copies” refers to subscription copies, newsstand copies and “comp” copies separately as well as in the aggregate) for delivery at Printer’s dock within *** of the dispatch times shown on the Production Schedule, provided that such failure is not the result of (i) a Force Majeure Event or (ii) any act or omission of Publisher or its agents or contractors, including without limitation Publisher’s failure to provide Printer with electronic page files landing at Printer’s site, inserts or other materials needed to produce an issue in accordance with the dates and times on Publisher’s production schedules. It is understood and agreed that, for any particular issue of the Magazine, more than one (1) Shipping and Mailing Breach occurring at an individual plant shall be deemed to constitute only one (1) Shipping and Mailing Breach for such issue at such plant.

“Performance Breach” shall mean any material breach of any of Printer’s obligations, representation or warranties hereunder which is not a Quality Breach or a Shipping and Mailing Breach.

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 8 of 25

“Breach” shall mean any of the following breaches: Quality Breach; Shipping and Mailing Breach; and/or Performance Breach.

“Severe Breach” shall mean any one or more of the following if primarily caused by an act or omission of Printer: (i) pages from another publication mistakenly bound into a material number of copies of the Magazine; (ii) pages from the Magazine mistakenly bound into a material number of copies of another publication; (iii) if and only if the Magazine is saddle-stitched, a signature mistakenly bound upside down into a material number of copies of the Magazine; (iv) missing shipping or mailing deadlines for a material number of copies of the Magazine by more than ***; (v) any Breach which results in actual or threatened litigation where the aggregate amount of out-of-pocket legal expenses incurred by Publisher plus damages paid by Publisher to a third party upon judgment or as settlement of threatened litigation exceeds $***, and/or (vi) any material breach of Printer’s confidentiality obligations hereunder which directly causes Publisher significant, supportable damages, including but not limited to damage to reputation, lost profits, claims and lawsuits or material costs.

4.07	Termination for Breaches. Publisher may terminate this Agreement upon one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice to Printer if: (i) there are at least * Breaches in any consecutive * period, or (ii) there are at least * Severe Breaches in any consecutive * period.

Publisher may require Printer to cease performing Work at any plant of Printer if there are at least *** Breaches relating to Work performed by such plant in any consecutive *** period (such plant is referred to as the “Terminated Plant”). Publisher must give Printer at least one hundred eighty (180) days prior written notice of such required cessation.

With respect to Publisher’s right to terminate this Agreement or to require a plant to cease performing Work, Publisher must exercise such right within one hundred eighty (180) days of the date of the notice provided to Printer of the Breach which gives rise to such right. If such right is not exercised by Publisher within such time frame and the right arises due to there being *** Severe Breaches in a consecutive *** period, then the earlier of the *** Severe Breaches giving rise to such claim will be deemed waived by Publisher and may no longer be counted toward determining whether Publisher has a right to terminate under Section 4.07 clause (ii).

4.08

Fitness of Materials. Printer shall assume no responsibility for the condition or fitness of materials supplied by Publisher or Publisher’s prepress vendors (other than Printer’s prepress facility) for printing or binding, unless (i) Publisher has requested Printer in writing and Printer has agreed, at Printer’s standard rates, to inspect such materials and to make such corrections, repairs, replacements or substitutions that Printer may recommend and such materials are in fact able to be repaired, replaced or substituted by Printer such that Printer can still fulfill its obligations hereunder; or (ii) the materials supplied by Publisher become damaged while in Printer’s custody, possession and control (with respect to which the provisions of Articles 9 and 22 shall be applicable).

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 9 of 25

4.09

Timeliness of Dispatches. To meet critical newsstand On Sale dates, Printer shall load skids with bundles of newsstand copies onto trucks on or before the dispatch times shown on Publisher’s Production Schedules (Exhibit “E”), such dispatches to be made without interruption during the shipping period so that all newsstand copies are en route to breakup agents or wholesalers in the least possible time. Both parties acknowledge that time is of the essence of all aspects of this Agreement. Printer’s failure to meet the obligations set forth in this paragraph shall be considered a Breach only if such failure results in a Shipping and Mailing Breach.

ARTICLE V

Paper

5.01

Publisher Furnished Paper. Publisher shall furnish F.O.B. Printer’s plant as set forth in the applicable production schedule, paper in rolls, prepared and identified in accordance with the reasonable mechanical specifications and delivery requirements set forth in Exhibit “G”. If paper that does not meet the specifications set forth on Exhibit G or that is otherwise substandard and/or defective (“Non-conforming Paper”) is used or received by Printer which adversely affects or, if used, might reasonably be expected to adversely affect runability or printability, Printer will provide prompt notification to Publisher (i) by using best efforts to reach Publisher by live telephone conversation (i.e., not voicemail), upon discovery of such substandard or defective conditions, and (ii) in writing (whether by courier or facsimile), within three (3) business days of discovery of such, non-conforming, substandard or defective conditions. If, after such telephone notification, Publisher requests, in writing, for Printer to continue using or to use the Non-conforming Paper to perform the Work and Printer incurs extra cost as a result thereof, Printer shall promptly notify Publisher in writing of such extra cost and thereafter such cost will be charged to and paid by Publisher. Printer shall give to Publisher all reasonable assistance as Publisher may request to assist Publisher in recovering for damage or defect. Steel cores shall remain the property of Publisher and, if not damaged so as to be unusable, shall be loaded in cars and returned to the respective ▇▇▇▇▇ by Printer at Publisher’s direction and expense. Printer shall perform the following paper management functions, including: receiving and providing a cursory inspection of paper, and notifying Publisher of the quantities received; maintaining paper inventory records; shipping cores back for credit; submitting periodic inventory reports to Publisher; developing paper requirements and paper required dates; and, at Publisher’s request, filing claims for damaged or defective paper. With regard to Printer’s responsibility for developing paper requirements, Printer shall submit to Publisher projections for each issue’s paper requirements (including basis weight, pounds, web width and paper due date for each requirement) based on the paper consumption allowances listed in Exhibit “C” and Publisher’s production schedule promptly after Printer receives from Publisher the information necessary to produce such paper projections. Printer shall update said paper requirement projections at Publisher’s request and just prior to each month’s LDC. In the event there is a discrepancy between Printer’s projected requirements and Publisher’s projections or Publisher’s representative’s projections, then Printer shall assist Publisher and Publisher’s representative(s) in reconciling such discrepancy. Publisher will be solely responsible for issuing purchase orders to its paper suppliers and paying the paper supplier’s invoices.

Printer shall provide data to Publisher of such substance (including without limitation the receipt, usage and balances of paper) and in such formats (including without limitation papiNet formats)

Page 10 of 25

as reasonably directed by Publisher; provided that such formats are consistent with widely accepted industry practices. Printer and Publisher agree that it is in the interest of both parties to engage in solutions which are reasonable in cost and not otherwise restrictive to either party’s overall business interests.

5.02

Inventory Reports. Printer will maintain a record of all paper received, used and on hand, and shall submit an inventory report to Publisher within three (3) business days of completion of presswork. This inventory report shall be submitted in a record-keeping format reasonably satisfactory to Publisher and Printer. Printer will maintain an ongoing cycle inventory of Publisher’s paper. Once annually, upon reasonable advance notice from Publisher, at Printer’s sole cost, Printer will effect a physical inventory of paper and submit to Publisher said inventory report. Printer agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to keep the wastage of paper to a minimum.

5.03

Paper Allowances. Within sixty (60) days after the end of each Contract Year, Printer and Publisher will calculate, for each grade and brand used, the underconsumption or overconsumption of paper purchased by Publisher for the applicable Contract Year. The paper consumption allowances are specified in Exhibit “C” and are based on net weight, inclusive of all press and binding spoilage, including wrapper and core waste (excluding the weight of cores). Publisher shall supply such information as may be needed to determine the average price of said paper. The full value of underconsumption of one kind of paper will be used as a credit against the full value of overconsumption of other kinds of paper (based on dollar value, not weight).

If in any Contract Year Printer consumes more paper than allowed by Exhibit “C” (i.e., net overconsumption), Printer shall pay Publisher an amount equal to ***% of the average cost of paper overconsumed during the printing of the Magazine during such Contract Year. If in any Contract Year Printer consumes less paper than allowed by Exhibit “C” (i.e., net underconsumption), Publisher shall pay Printer an amount equal to ***% of the average cost of paper underconsumed during the printing of the Magazine during such Contract Year. Publisher will continue to own all underconsumed paper.

Printer will not be responsible for excess paper consumption on Customer-furnished mill seconds or odd/job lot paper or on Non-conforming Paper. “Mill seconds or odd/job lot paper” is defined as paper sold by the manufacturer to a seconds broker, who resells the paper without a guarantee from the mill and without a mill brand name on the rolls. If Publisher elects to furnish Non-conforming Paper or odd/job lot or seconds paper, such paper must be suitable for use on high speed 4/color presses, and all paper in a given shipment must originate from the same mill and have been produced from not more than two mill runs. In the event that such paper is used, the standard contract paper allowance shall be waived and actual consumption of Non-conforming Paper or odd/job lot or seconds paper will become the standard allowance. Additional expense (lost time and materials) incurred by Printer as a result of the use of such paper will be paid by Publisher.

Printer and Publisher agree to adjust for the variation in the weight of wrappers, headers and cores for foreign paper versus domestic paper.

Page 11 of 25

5.04

Storage. Publisher will supply all the paper required for the Magazine. Printer will not charge a storage fee to store Publisher’s paper for up to a cumulative *** day supply of paper (i.e., the projected consumption requirements for the following *** days which is equivalent to *** weeks). If the overall pounds in inventory for Publisher, across all four plants producing the Work, exceeds the projected consumption requirements over the following *** weeks, then Printer will be obligated to store such paper and be entitled to charge Publisher for such storage at the rates set forth in Exhibit “C”. The parties shall maintain adequate and customary insurance for said paper, and Printer’s insurance shall be primary (and shall apply first) and Publisher’s insurance shall be secondary (and shall apply only after Printer’s insurance has been applied).

5.05	Paper Waste. All waste paper and trim waste shall become the property of Printer.

5.06	Printer Furnished Paper. Publisher may request Printer to supply paper for a special insert that requires a different type of stock, or, on occasion, to furnish paper in case of shortfall and Printer will use commercially reasonable efforts to supply such paper.

If the Qualified Amount in any Contract Year equals or exceeds ***dollars ($***), then Printer shall provide Publisher with a rebate equal to *** percent (***%) of the Qualified Amount. As used herein, “Qualified Amount” shall mean the total of all amounts that Printer charges Publisher in any Contract Year for the sum of (a) the Work (excluding all amounts, if any, that Printer charges Publisher for paper, stamps/postage/franking and transportation services), and (b) any other work that Printer performs for Publisher with respect to publications other than the Magazine (excluding all amounts, if any, that Printer charges Publisher for paper, stamps/postage/franking, transportation services and work performed for the Weider titles pursuant to that certain Printing Agreement dated as of December 1, 2000 by and between Weider Publications, Inc. and Quad/Graphics, Inc.). All such rebates will be calculated promptly after the last business day of each Contract Year.

Invoices for printer supplied paper and miscellaneous manufacturing charges shall be due net *** from receipt of hard copy by Publisher. All freight invoices (including charges for bulk freight) shall be due net *** from receipt of hard copy by Publisher. Invoices shall be due in accordance with the foregoing sentence provided, however, that all invoices shall be sent electronically using a PDF format with a hard copy sent via overnight delivery to include an original invoice and a copy. Any undisputed portion of an invoice not paid when due shall be subject to a service charge on past due balances equal to the prime rate as computed by the Wall Street Journal (i.e., the base rate on corporate loans posted by at least 75% of the nation’s 30 largest banks) or the maximum which may be charged by law, whichever is less. All invoices shall be prepared by Printer using a mutually agreeable format and each issue’s invoice shall include a summary page(s) which shows the totals across all four plants.

Each calendar week during the Term, within twenty-four (24) hours of such time and day of the week as Printer and Publisher may reasonably agree from time to time, Printer shall deliver to such email addresses as Publisher may reasonably specify from time to time a written statement (the “Weekly Statement”) which details all current information (as of the close of business of the prior business day) about Publisher’s unpaid invoices, including initial balances, unpaid balances, due dates, number of days past due and any other information that Printer and Publisher may reasonably agree to include from time to time. Provided that Printer materially complies with its obligation to deliver the Weekly Statement as required herein, if, at any time on or after January 1, 2005, Publisher defaults in timely payment of undisputed invoices in excess of *** dollars ($***) more than *** times hereunder in any consecutive *** period and in each such case Printer provides Publisher with written notice (in accordance with Section 27.01) of such default within *** of the first day such payment is late, then (i) Printer shall have the right to propose a change in terms of payment and such other actions as it believes in good faith to be necessary to protect its financial interests; and (ii) Printer’s obligation to perform any additional Work shall be subject to reaching mutual agreement on such revised payment terms and actions. It is understood and agreed that Printer shall have materially complied with its obligation to deliver the Weekly Statement, as required herein, if any invoice which could potentially be deemed to be in default under this paragraph is noted in at least one (1) Weekly Statement. If any Publisher payment default of an undisputed amount in excess of *** dollars ($***) continues uncured for more than *** after Printer has provided Publisher with written notice (in accordance with Section 27.01), Printer may terminate this Agreement upon written notice to Publisher.

dispute. Both parties agree to use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve the disputed portion of such invoice within (30) days of learning of the dispute.

6.05

Postal Deposits. Publisher shall maintain the necessary deposits for postage to prevent possible delays in mailing.

There shall be no additional charges (other than those specified in the pro forma invoices prepared by Printer and included as Exhibit “I”) for Printer to prepare copies for transit, to Publisher’s reasonable specifications, and load those copies onto trucks belonging to Publisher’s designated vendors. Periodically, Publisher may request Printer to offer a plan(s) for Publisher to use Printer’s pool to ship either the subscription copies or the newsstand copies or both. Printer will respond with such a plan(s) in a timely manner. If the parties agree to implement any such plan, they will enter into a separate agreement relating thereto.

ARTICLE VII

Price Adjustment

7.01

Price Adjustment. The manufacturing prices contained in Schedule “C” (excluding ink, paper, stamps/postage/franking and transportation services) shall be increased by the following amounts: (i) *** percent (***%) on ***; and (ii) *** percent (***%) on ***. (It is understood and agreed that the ***% increase on the manufacturing and ink prices shall be made on the manufacturing and ink prices as previously increased by the earlier ***% increase.) In the event Printer becomes obligated and entitled to provide or arrange for transportation services for Publisher’s Work under this Agreement, then fuel surcharges will be addressed by the parties to determine the reference and mechanics of such calculation.

7.02

CPI Price Adjustment. The manufacturing prices set forth in Schedule “C” are based on Printer’s salaries, labor rates, prices of materials, energy, working conditions and other items affecting the Work to be performed hereunder by Printer as of March 26, 2004. There will be no cost of living adjustment to the manufacturing prices included in Exhibit “C”, except for ink, until ***. On *** and on each subsequent *** during the Term, Printer will increase (decrease) manufacturing prices by ***% of the percentage increase (decrease) in the Consumer Price Index during the prior twelve-month period as described below. During each December prior to an adjustment date, Printer shall calculate the percentage change in the “all items” listing (1982-84=100) of the U.S. City Average for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, U.S. Department of Labor, for the August immediately preceding the effective date of the price adjustment as compared to that reported for August in the previous year. If the CPI-U as defined above is revised or discontinued, the calculation described herein shall be made using the price index with which the Bureau of Labor Statistics replaces it. Printer shall furnish Customer with an adjusted Exhibit “C” by *** of each calendar year during the Term.

***	Confidential information omitted pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Page 14 of 25

At the time of each adjustment, if the monthly CPI-U Index increases over the specified prior twelve (12) months, the prices shall be adjusted upward by the percentage obtained by multiplying the percentage of increase of the CPI-U over the prior twelve (12) months by ***%. At the time of each adjustment, if the CPI-U decreases over the prior twelve (12) months, the prices shall be adjusted downward by the percentage obtained by multiplying the percentage of decrease of the CPI-U over the prior twelve (12) months by ***%. Should Publisher exercise Publisher’s right to extend this Agreement beyond the Initial Term, pursuant to the terms of Article 2.02, then all price adjustments after the Initial Term shall be calculated using ***% instead of ***% of the percentage increase (decrease) in the Consumer Price Index.

7.03

Ink (Other than Fluorescent Ink). All ink (except fluorescent ink) is priced on a *** basis. The ink prices in Exhibit “C” reflect material costs as of the current date and are based on the ink coverage reflected in the January 27, 2004 issue of the Magazine included as Exhibit “H”. In addition to the price increases set forth in Section 7.01, ink prices may be adjusted periodically to reflect any subsequent increase or decrease in Printer’s actual unit costs for materials from its suppliers. Printer shall furnish adequate documentation to support any adjustment. Printer shall keep Publisher informed of any industry intelligence that may impact the cost of ink, provided Printer may do so without breaching any confidentiality obligations it may be bound by and Publisher agrees to maintain the confidentiality of any such information. The failure to give Publisher notice of any price adjustment before such price adjustment is publicly announced shall not result in a delay in passing on any price adjustment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Printer agrees that, until ***, the cumulative percentage price increase allowed under this Section 7.03 shall be limited to the cumulative percentage increase in Printer’s actual unit costs for ink from its suppliers for such period in excess of ***%. Thereafter, price increases or decreases shall be based on the percentage increase or decrease in Printer’s actual unit costs for ink over the actual unit costs as of ***.

7.04

Fluorescent Ink. Fluorescent ink shall be charged to Publisher at ***, supporting documentation to be furnished on request. At each of the four designated printing facilities, Printer shall maintain an inventory of approximately twelve non-process color inks for use on the front cover page, to be specified by Publisher, to allow Publisher to select the specific non-process color for the cover on twelve hours notice or more. Printer shall provide ink inventory reports of the Publisher specified non-process inks to Publisher on a quarterly basis indicating the shipment of ink has been in inventory and Printer will use reasonable efforts to ensure that each such quarterly report contains a reasonable notice of ink that will be expiring in the next six (6) months. Non-process colors will be kept in inventory for one year, in accordance with industry standards, and then discarded. Unless requested by Publisher, Printer shall not reorder replacement ink prior to discarding expired ink. The cost of any such discarded ink will be charged to Publisher. If Publisher requests that expired non-process ink be used by Printer rather than being discarded, Publisher will be responsible for any additional costs incurred by Printer to the extent caused by the use of such expired ink and Printer will not be responsible for any degradation of quality in the Work to the extent caused by such expired ink, and any such degradation will not be deemed a Breach hereunder.

ARTICLE VIII

Force Majeure

8.01

Unavoidable Delays. Neither Publisher nor Printer shall be required to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and any failure by Publisher or Printer to perform will not be deemed a Breach hereunder, to the extent any failure to perform is caused by any act or event that (i) is beyond the reasonable control of and not the fault of the nonperforming party, and (ii) the nonperforming party would have been unable to avoid or overcome by the exercise of reasonable due diligence (a “Force Majeure Event”). It is understood and agreed that the term “Force Majeure Event” shall not include: (a) the failure or compromised efficiency of equipment or machinery, or (b) any increase or decrease in prices for commodities or labor. If a Force Majeure Event occurs, Publisher shall have the right to make immediate arrangements for the production of the Magazine by a third party, and Printer shall have the right to accept other work from third parties until such time as the Force Majeure Event ceases to cause the nonperformance. If the nonperformance continues for a period of ninety (90) days or more, then either party shall have the right to terminate this Agreement on thirty (30) days written notice.

If a Force Majeure Event occurs, Printer shall not be required to perform any services specified in this Agreement to the extent impeded by a Force Majeure Event but Printer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have all such services performed either at other facilities which it operates or through subcontracting to other printers for the duration of any such occurrence, subject to Publisher’s consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed. Should there be insufficient capacity or shortage of materials due to a Force Majeure Event, Printer shall give priority to its then current contract customers and allocate equipment and material fairly among such contract customers so that Publisher receives its fair share of resources.

During any such period while Publisher’s Work is being done under subcontract by Printer or at other facilities which Printer operates, the Price Schedule shall remain in effect and Printer’s obligations with respect to specifications and quality, the production schedule, overruns and underruns and storage shall remain in effect.

Printer will use commercially reasonable efforts in assisting Publisher to obtain completion of the unperformed Work, including, but not limited to, facilitating contacts between Publisher and other printers. Publisher shall have the right to remove from Printer’s plant any and all material (completed or uncompleted) relating to the Magazine upon written notice of Publisher’s election to have Work done elsewhere.

ARTICLE IX

At the indemnifying party’s option, the indemnifying party may assume the handling, settlement or defense of any such claim or litigation, in which event the indemnified party shall cooperate in the defense thereof, and the indemnifying party’s obligation with respect thereto shall be holding indemnified party harmless from any damages awarded on account of such claim or any settlement thereof made and approved by the indemnifying party.

Yield Variance Determination

Exhibit D

Quad/Graphics, Inc.

American Media, Inc. – STAR MAGAZINE

Yield Variance Determination

PAPER YIELD VARIANCE VERIFICATION FOR USE IN

THE CALCULATION OF OVER OR UNDER CONSUMPTION

The actual basis weight of the paper received and used for each catalog shall be the basis for the calculation of over and under consumption.

Paper recording and analysis

The following steps detail the recording process Quad/Graphics uses to record paper consumption. This procedure accounts for all paper that feeds into the press.

Steps 8 through 11 below describe the procedure for verifying yield variance in terms of a single roll, although Quad/Graphics summarizes and reports the results of each entire press run. If needed, some individual rolls can be analyzed for checking purposes.

1.	The roll of paper is received into Quad/Graphics’ inventory at gross weight minus the fiber core weights. If these weights are not recorded on the roll manifest, the weights will be determined by calculating a factor of .24 times the roll width (or .333 times the roll width, for 6-inch cores).

2.	The roll of paper is then delivered to the press where rolltender removes roll wrapper and headers which are weighed and recorded at press or a constant for that order/shift may be developed and used in calculations.

3.	The rolltender then strips some of the outer layers of white paper to prepare roll for running. This “outer strip waste” is then weighed and recorded at the press by the rolltender.

The rolltender mounts the “first” roll on the press. A splice is made and the “first” roll begins to be run through the press. Quad/Graphics’ Roll Collection System (RCS) records how many impressions each roll produces from splice in to splice out, as well as wrap, outer strip, and core strip waste.

5.	The white paper remaining on the core is then stripped off and weighed at press. This weight is captured in RCS as “core strip waste”.

Quad/Graphics, Inc.

Yield Variance Determination

Calculation of Yield Variance

6.	Begin with the “gross” received roll weight. Next subtract the weight of the fiber or steel core and the weight of the wrapper and the header. Then subtract the outer strip waste and the core strip waste to arrive at the weight of the paper that was actually run through the press.

7.	Calculate the theoretical weight of 1,000 impressions:

Cylinder circumference x Web width x Basis Weight

475*

* Book stock basis - 25 x 38 = 475

Cover stock basis - 20 x 26 = 260

Newsprint/Tag stock basis - 24 x 36 = 432

8.	Divide the weight of paper through press by the theoretical weight per thousand impressions calculated in #7 and multiply by 1000. The result will be the number of impressions this roll should theoretically have achieved.

9.	Take the theoretical impressions calculated in #8 and subtract the gross impressions, this is the variance in impressions. Now divide this variance by the theoretical impressions and the result will be the yield variance percentage.

Yield Variance Determination

BASIS WEIGHT DETERMINATION

Example of the paper reporting steps (Although only one roll is used in this example, such calculations are not required on a roll by roll basis):


Step 1:		Roll number GID3329031M* is received.

Step 1a:		The roll is received at 5,474#.
		(The gross weight less the weight of the fiber core.)

Step 2:		Roll is taken to press. Wrapper and headers are weighed at 24 pounds.

Step 3:		The outer strip waste weighs 24 pounds.

Step 4:		The impressions achieved by this roll are 22,460.

Step 5:		Core strip waste is weighed at 18 pounds.

Step 6:		Paper through press is calculated:
		5,474# - 24# - 24# - 18# = 5,408 pounds.

Step 7:		Impression size (roll width x cylinder circumference) =3,556.125; Basis weight =
		25 x 38 - 32#; 3,556.125 x 32/475 = 239.57# (weight of 1,000 impressions)=.

Step 8:		5,408/239.57 x 1000 = 22,574 theoretical impressions

Step 9:		22,460 - 22,574 = (114);
		(114)/22,574 = .00505 (.51% heavy)
		Which indicates an actual basis weight of 32.1616#

*	Note: This roll sent for testing and showed a basis weight of 32.1536#.

Quad/Graphics is in the process of implementing the papiNet Messaging Standards and will be requesting that all Order Acknowledgements, whether for Quad ordered paper or customer ordered paper, use the papiNet Order Acknowledgement message.

Roll Weights

•

Roll labels and manifests should list both gross, tare and net weights in pounds.

•

Tare weight includes core and core plugs.

•

All invoices should be based on net weights (i.e., gross weight less tare).

•

Roll Width

•

The exact roll width size is required + / - 1/32".

•

Roll Diameters

*	For example: 30" Roll cannot exceed 2,700#; 38" roll cannot exceed 3,420#.

Over/Under Delivery Specifications

•

As of 2/1/2002, for Quad purchased paper, all over shipments on orders greater than 44,000lbs.* will result in a rejection of the over shipped roll(s).

Basis Weight Tolerance

•

Overweight paper is not desirable. The target should be from nominal to .25 percent light. The average basis weight should be as close as possible to nominal basis weight.

For Quad Purchased Paper

•

Quad will audit basis weight once per quarter on an aggregate basis.

•

At the end of the calendar year, any mill credits will be zeroed out.

•

Quad’s basis weight variance calculation will be used in verifying average basis weights. Quad’s calculations will supersede mill figures. Quad compares actual impressions to theoretical impressions based upon stated roll weight, basis weight and width of roll. If the actual impressions are less than the theoretical impressions that have been calculated, the paper is considered heavy.

•

Quad reserves the right to hold the supplier responsible for individual orders.

Purchased Paper Claims

For Quad Purchased Papers

•

Notification of transit claims will be filed directly with the originating paper mill. In the cases where paper was shipped from another printer, claim documentation will be forwarded to the papers’ owner. Resolution of the claim is then the responsibility of the owner.

•

Notification of press claims will be filed directly with the paper supplier. Quad will provide evidence of damages.

•

Claims are to be resolved within 21 calendar days from the file date. If no dispute arises and a claim remains unpaid on day 21, Quad/Graphics will debit the mill and reference the claim number.

•

Disputed claims that remain unresolved after 21 calendar days will be forwarded to Quad/Graphics’ Paper Purchasing department for resolution.

•

No time limit exists for Quad discovering concealed water damage. We will do our best to report cases as they are discovered.
