3.	COST SHARING

3.1 Generally.

3.1.1

All documented expenses, fees, charges and costs relating to the Shared Services, including third-party charges, facility costs, including maintenance costs, rental costs, legal and accounting expenses, telephone and fax costs, travel expenses, costs of technical and communications support, and shared administration and other similar office expenses (collectively, “Shared Expenses”), shall be paid by Pubco, including, if not directly incurred by Pubco or its applicable Affiliate, by reimbursement to LG Parent in the event that LG Parent is a Provider of any Shared Services and incurs any Shared Expenses; provided, that such amounts payable to LG Parent pursuant to this Section 3.1.1 shall be offset by the LG Parent Allocation

such that only amounts required to be paid or reimbursed by Pubco in excess of the LG Parent Allocation shall be payable to LG Parent; provided, further, that Shared Expenses shall be net of all costs or expenses relating to Benefits (as defined below) to which employees of Starz (other than Shared Employees) are entitled under plans maintained by LG Parent or its Affiliates.

3.1.2

In consideration of the Shared Services, and in further consideration of Pubco’s assumption and payment of the Shared Expenses, LG Parent (or its Affiliate) shall reimburse Pubco in an amount of $10 million per fiscal year (the “LG Parent Allocation”). The LG Parent Allocation shall be payable in equal monthly installments on the last day of each fiscal month following the StudioCo Amalgamation Effective Time; provided, that such payment may, at LG Parent’s option, be reduced by the amount of any Shared Expense actually incurred or paid by LG Parent with respect to such Shared Services and reimbursable by Pubco pursuant to Section 3.1.1. The Parties agree to consider in good faith from time-to-time adjustments to the LG Parent Allocation as required to reflect changes in the Shared Services as agreed to from time to time. The Parties shall amend this Agreement to reflect any such agreed upon changes.

3.2 Shared Employees.

3.2.1

In the event that any employee (including any corporate executive) of Provider acts as an employee or corporate executive of, or otherwise provides services to, both Parties (and/or their subsidiaries) such employee shall be treated as a “Shared Employee”.

3.2.2

For such time as any Shared Employees are shared under this Agreement, the applicable employer of the Shared Employee, either Pubco or LG Parent, shall, except as provided in Section 3.2.3, be solely responsible for the payment of all compensation, including wages, bonuses, commissions and other incentive compensation (collectively, the “Wages”), employee benefits, including, but not limited to, pension and welfare benefits, paid absences, health insurance and other fringe benefits, direct non-labor costs and similar expenses, reimbursement of out-of-pocket third-party costs and expenses, severance benefits and workers’ compensation insurance (collectively, the “Benefits”), in each case, including associated employer-side payroll and similar Taxes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, and subject to the final proviso of Section 3.1.1, such Wages, Benefits and other costs relating to Shared Employees (including associated employer-side payroll and similar Taxes) shall (regardless of whether Pubco or LG Parent is responsible under this paragraph for the actual payment of Wages or the provision of Benefits) be deemed “Shared Expenses” and subject to payment or reimbursement, as applicable, under Section 3.1.

3.2.3

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 3.1.1 or 3.2.2, the Parties agree that any equity compensation awards to employees of Starz or the Studio Business (including Shared Employees) shall be provided by, and shall be the responsibility of, LG Parent, provided that the costs of such awards with respect to employees of the Studio Business and Shared Employees shall be reflected as an expense on the financial statements of the StudioCo Group for accounting purposes. Such awards shall not be Shared Expenses, and it is not currently anticipated that Pubco will grant any Pubco equity compensation awards to any persons.

3.2.4

To the extent employees of Starz (other than Shared Employees) receive Benefits under a plan maintained by Pubco or one of its subsidiaries, or receive Wages from Pubco or one of its subsidiaries , LG Parent shall reimburse Pubco for the costs or expenses relating to such Benefits or Wages (including associated employer-side payroll and similar Taxes) to the extent such Benefits have not been satisfied pursuant to the offset contemplated by the final proviso to Section 3.1.1. For the avoidance of doubt, for any such reimbursement required under this Section 3.2.4 that is not satisfied pursuant to the offset contemplated by the final proviso in Section 3.1.1, Pubco may offset such amounts payable against any other amounts Pubco is required to pay LG Parent pursuant to Section 3.1.1.

3.2.5

To the extent employees of the Studio Business (other than Shared Employees) receive Benefits under a plan maintained by LG Parent or one of its subsidiaries, or receive Wages from LG Parent or one of its subsidiaries, Pubco shall reimburse LG Parent for the costs or expenses relating to such Benefits or Wages (including associated employer-side payroll and similar Taxes).

3.3 Taxes.

3.3.1

Any amount required to be paid by a Party (or its Affiliates) to the other Party (or its Affiliates) pursuant to this Agreement does not include any Taxes payable with respect to such payment. In addition to any such payment, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any Service Recipient shall pay (or cause to be paid) and be responsible for and shall promptly reimburse the applicable Provider for any sales, use, excise, value-added, service, goods and services, consumption or similar Taxes imposed on, in connection with or with respect to the provision of the Shared Services by such Provider (such Taxes, “Service Provision Taxes”). The applicable Service Recipient shall either (1) upon receipt of an invoice (or other valid and customary documentation, if any), if applicable, reasonably detailing the applicable Service Provision Taxes and a calculation of the amount due, promptly pay or reimburse the applicable Provider for the amount of such Service Provision Taxes shown as due on such invoice (or other documentation) (and, to the extent required by applicable Law, such Provider shall timely remit such amount to the applicable Tax authority) or (2) where permitted by applicable Law, timely and directly account to the relevant Tax authority for any such Service Provision Taxes.

3.3.2

Any amount required to be paid by a Party (or its Affiliates) to the other Party (or its Affiliates) pursuant to this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes, unless the payor is required to deduct or withhold Taxes from such payment under applicable Law. If the payor is so required by applicable Law to deduct or withhold any amount for or on account of Taxes from any such payment, then the payor shall (i) make such deductions or withholdings as are required by applicable Law (taking into account applicable Tax forms, documentation or certificates furnished by the payee and any reductions or exemptions provided thereunder), (ii) timely pay the full amount so deducted or withheld to the applicable Tax authority, and (iii) promptly provide to the applicable payee reasonable evidence of payment to the appropriate Tax authority of such deducted or withheld amounts. To the extent any such amounts are so deducted or withheld and timely paid to the applicable Tax authority, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the payee in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that Service Provision Taxes shall not be treated as deemed paid to the Provider and shall be reimbursed by a Service Recipient pursuant to Section 3.3.1.

3.3.3

The Parties shall (and shall cause their respective Affiliates to) cooperate in good faith in order to reduce or eliminate Service Provision Taxes and Taxes otherwise required to be deducted or withheld by any Party (or its Affiliates) on amounts required to be paid by such Party (or its Affiliates) to the other Party (or its Affiliates) pursuant to this Agreement to the extent legally permissible, including by providing any applicable Tax forms, documentation or certificates.

3.3.4

If a Provider receives any refund of Taxes that are borne by a Service Recipient pursuant to this Agreement, then such Provider shall promptly pay, or cause to be paid, to such Service Recipient the amount of such refund (net of any additional Taxes such Provider incurs or will incur as a result of the receipt of such refund, taking into account available deductions for applicable Tax purposes that reduce such Taxes).

3.3.5

If any amount paid by Service Recipient to Provider with respect to Taxes in connection with this Agreement is subject to adjustment by any Tax authority pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code (or any similar provision of state, local or non-U.S. Law), the Service Recipient shall make an additional payment or Provider shall make a rebate of consideration previously paid to reflect such adjustment to the extent consistent with the Parties’ economic rights and obligations for such Taxes pursuant to this Agreement.

3.3.6

The Parties agree to (and to cause their respective Affiliates to) cooperate in good faith to avoid double taxation.

3.3.7

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, each Party will be solely responsible for any and all Taxes levied, assessed or imposed on its income, business operations (e.g., franchise Taxes) or the ownership of its assets.

3.4 Board Services. For such time as any Pubco Director is also serving on (or as an observer of) the Board of Directors of LG Parent, such Pubco Director will be compensated solely by LG Parent in accordance with LG Parent’s non-employee director compensation program (which may be amended from time to time) and will not receive additional compensation from Pubco.

Neither Party shall have authority to create any obligation for the other Party, except to the extent stated herein. Further, Provider shall be responsible for: (1) selecting and hiring its employees legally, including compliance with all applicable laws in connection therewith; (2) paying wages and other benefits that Provider offers to such employees in accordance with applicable laws; and (3) paying or withholding all required payroll taxes and mandated insurance premiums.

The Provider will have the right, in its reasonable discretion, to (i) designate which personnel it will assign to perform such Shared Service, and (ii) remove and replace such personnel at any time.

7.	PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES

7.1 Compliance with Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Provider to perform or cause to be performed any Shared Service to the extent the manner of such performance would constitute a violation of applicable law or any existing contract or agreement with a third party. Each Party shall be responsible for its own compliance and its subcontractors’ compliance with any and all laws applicable to its performance under this Agreement. No Party will knowingly take any action in violation of any such applicable law that results in liability being imposed on the other Party.

7.2 Standard of Service. Each Provider represents, warrants and agrees that the Shared Services it provides shall be provided in good workmanlike manner using commercially reasonable efforts, in accordance with applicable Law and in a manner generally consistent with the historical provision of the Shared Services and with the same or higher standard of care as historically provided. Each Service Recipient shall use the Shared Services for the same purposes and in substantially the same manner as were used historically. Provider agrees to assign sufficient resources and qualified personnel as are reasonably required to perform the Shared Services in accordance with the standards set forth in this Agreement. Each Provider remains responsible for the performance by any of its Affiliates of the Shared Services, and each such Affiliate shall be subject to the standard of service set forth in this Section 7.2.

7.3 Disclaimer of Warranties. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE PARTIES ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE SHARED SERVICES ARE PROVIDED AS-IS, THAT SERVICE RECIPIENT ASSUMES ALL RISKS AND LIABILITY ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO ITS USE OF AND RELIANCE UPON THE SHARED SERVICES AND PROVIDER, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MAKES NO REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY WITH RESPECT THERETO. EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, EACH OF PROVIDER AND SERVICE RECIPIENT HEREBY EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ALL REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING THE SHARED SERVICES, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, EITHER IN FACT OR BY OPERATION OF LAW, BY STATUTE OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY REPRESENTATION OR WARRANTY IN REGARD TO QUALITY, PERFORMANCE, NONINFRINGEMENT, COMMERCIAL UTILITY, MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS OF ANY SHARED SERVICE FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

8.	CONFIDENTIALITY

8.1 Neither Party hereto as the Receiving Party (as defined below) shall disclose to any third party, any Information (as defined below), except: (a) to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law, a governmental entity with jurisdiction over the Receiving Party or a valid court order of a court with competent jurisdiction, in which event the Receiving Party shall so notify the Disclosing Party (as defined below) as promptly as is practicable (if possible, prior to making such disclosure) and shall not oppose any efforts of the Disclosing Party to seek confidential treatment of such information; (b) to the extent necessary to comply with the disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission or similar entities; (c) (i) to the Receiving Party’s employees, directors and officers, in their capacity as such, on a reasonable need-to-know basis, and (ii) to the Receiving Party’s respective parent, subsidiary or other Affiliates, and its or their investors, financiers, banks, auditors, attorneys, employees, directors and officers, in each case, on a reasonable need-to-know basis in connection with this Agreement (collectively, its “Permitted Recipients”) (provided, that the Receiving Party shall be liable in the event that any of its Permitted Recipients disclose any information that the Receiving Party would be prohibited from disclosing pursuant to this provision); (d) in order to enforce the Receiving Party’s rights pursuant to this Agreement; and (e) to a bona fide prospective or an actual buyer or financier as well as the Permitted Recipients thereof (provided, that any such buyer or financier first executes a written confidentiality agreement with the Receiving Party pursuant to which such

buyer or financier agree(s) (on behalf of itself and its Permitted Recipients) to be bound by the provisions of this Section 8.1 or a similar undertaking of confidentiality at least as restrictive as the provisions of this Section 8.1). “Information” means, with respect to a Party (the “Disclosing Party”), all confidential and/or proprietary information of such Disclosing Party that is received by or on behalf of the other Party (the “Receiving Party”) or that the Receiving Party otherwise learns or has access to, other than any such information that (a) is publicly available or publicly known other than through a breach of this Section 8.1, (b) was known to the Receiving Party from a source other than the Disclosing Party, as applicable, that is not subject to a confidentiality obligation, or (c) is independently developed after the Effective Date by or on behalf of the Receiving Party or any of its Representatives, as applicable, without use or reference to the Information of the other Party. With respect to the Information of a Disclosing Party hereto, the Receiving Party shall use the same degree of care in safeguarding such Information as it uses to safeguard its own confidential Information and otherwise, in a commercially reasonable manner. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that in the event of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Section 8.1, monetary damages may not constitute a sufficient remedy. Consequently, in the event of any such breach, the Disclosing Party and/or its successors or assigns may, in addition to any other rights and remedies existing in its favor, apply to any court of law or equity of competent jurisdiction for specific performance and/or injunctive or other relief in order to enforce or prevent any violations of the provisions hereof, in each case without the requirement of proving actual damages. However, it is agreed that in no event shall either Party seek to enjoin or otherwise restrain the development, production, advertising, promotion, distribution, exhibition, or other exploitation of any motion picture or other content of the other Party or its Affiliates in connection with the exercise of remedies under this Agreement except to the extent such claim is based on a breach of intellectual property rights. For the avoidance of doubt, each Party shall be required to inform its members, managers, officers, employees, contractors and agents of the obligations hereunder and cause them to comply therewith.

9. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

9.1 Except as expressly set forth in Section 9.2, nothing in this Agreement shall or is intended to transfer, convey, grant or assign any right or license in or to the Intellectual Property Rights of one Party (or such Party’s Affiliates or their licensors) to any other, whether by implication, estoppel, or otherwise. All rights not expressly granted herein are expressly reserved. Service Recipient shall not remove or alter any proprietary notices that appear on any information technology, software or other technology owned or made available by or on behalf of Provider or its Affiliates in connection with the Shared Services, and shall not attempt to decompile or reverse engineer copies of any software owned or made available by Provider.

9.2 Without limitation to Section 8, each Party hereby grants, and shall cause its Affiliates to grant, to the other Party and its Affiliates, a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as provided in Section 10.3), non-sublicensable (except to such Party’s or its Affiliates’ subcontractors in connection with the provision or receipt of the Shared Services, as applicable), royalty-free, fully paid up license (or sublicense, as applicable) under (a) the Intellectual Property Rights owned by such first Party or its Affiliates, and (b) any Intellectual Property Rights owned by any third party and sublicensable by such first Party or any of its Affiliates (but only to the extent sublicensable without further payment or other obligation by such first Party or its Affiliates), in each case, solely to the extent required or used for, as applicable, Provider to provide the Shared Services, or Service Recipient to receive or use the Shared Services for purposes consistent with those for which they were provided, in each case, in accordance with this Agreement. Upon the termination or expiration of any Shared Service as provided herein, the license to the relevant Intellectual Property Rights granted under this Section 9.2 in connection with such Shared Service shall automatically terminate.

10.	MISCELLANEOUS

Any notice, request, demand, claim, or other communication hereunder shall be deemed duly given (a) when delivered personally to the recipient, (b) when sent by electronic mail, on the date of transmission to such recipient (c) one Business Day after being sent to the recipient by reputable overnight courier service (charges prepaid), or (d) four (4) Business Days after being mailed to the recipient by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested and postage prepaid, and addressed to the intended recipient as set forth on Schedule 1.

10.3 Successors and Assigns; No Third-Party Rights. This Agreement shall be binding upon and enure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assignable, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, by any Party without the prior written consent of the other Parties (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), and any attempt to assign any rights or obligations arising under this Agreement without such consent shall be void ab initio and without force or effect, provided that any assumption of this Agreement as part of the chapter 11 bankruptcy case of any Party shall not be considered an assignment for purposes of this Section 10.3. This Agreement is not intended to, and does not, create rights in any other person, and no person is or is intended to be a third-party beneficiary of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

10.4 Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement that is held invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or other governmental authority in any situation in any jurisdiction shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining terms and provisions hereof or the validity or enforceability of the offending term or provision in any other situation or in any other jurisdiction so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a determination, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to replace invalid or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid or unenforceable provisions.

10.5 Waivers and Amendments. Any waiver of any term or condition of this Agreement, or any amendment or supplement to this Agreement, shall be effective only if in writing and signed by the Parties. A waiver of any breach or failure to enforce any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement shall not in any way affect, limit or waive a Party’s rights hereunder at any time to enforce strict compliance thereafter with every term or condition of this Agreement.

10.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic means) with the same effect as if all Parties had signed the same document.

10.7 Governing Law; Waiver of Jury. Each of the Parties hereto hereby agrees this Agreement shall be governed by and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, excluding any conflict-of-laws rule or principle that might refer the governance or the construction of this Agreement to the law of another jurisdiction. EACH PARTY HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH

PARTY (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.7. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. EACH PARTY HERETO FURTHER REPRESENTS AND WARRANTS THAT IT HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS LEGAL COUNSEL AND THAT IT KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL.

10.8 Specific Performance. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms. Accordingly, it is hereby agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

10.9 Headings; References; Interpretation. All Article and Section headings in this Agreement are for convenience only and shall not be deemed to control or affect the meaning or construction of any of the provisions hereof. The words “hereof,” “herein,” and “hereunder” and words of similar import, when used in this Agreement, shall refer to this Agreement as a whole, including, without limitation, all Exhibits attached hereto, and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. All references herein to Articles, Sections and Exhibits shall, unless the context requires a different construction, be deemed to be references to the Articles and Sections of this Agreement and the Exhibits attached hereto, and all such Exhibits attached hereto are hereby incorporated herein and made a part hereof for all purposes. The use herein of the word “including” following any general statement, term, or matter shall not be construed to limit such statement, term or matter to the specific items or matters set forth immediately following such word or to similar items or matters, whether or not non-limiting language (such as “without limitation,” “but not limited to,” or words of similar import) is used with reference thereto, but rather shall be deemed to refer to all other items or matters that could reasonably fall within the broadest possible scope of such general statement, term, or matter.

10.10 Non-Recourse. No past, present or future director, officer, employee, incorporator, member, partner, shareholder, affiliate, agent, attorney or representative of either Party or their affiliates shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of either Party, respectively, under this Agreement or for any claims based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
