2.3 Shared Contracts.

2.3.1 Subject to the provisions of this Section 2.3, the Transferred Assets shall include those rights relating to the Business which arise from and after the Closing under a Shared Contract set forth on Schedule 2.3.1 (each, an “Allocable Shared Contract”), subject to the terms and conditions of such Allocable Shared Contract (such rights, the “Shared Contract Rights”), and the Assumed Liabilities shall include those Liabilities corresponding to such rights, other than those Liabilities which arise as a result of any breach thereof by Seller or any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of such Allocable Shared Contract (such Liabilities, the “Shared Contract Liabilities”).

All rights and Liabilities which arise under an Allocable Shared Contract other than the Shared Contract Rights and the Shared Contract Liabilities shall in all cases be included in the Excluded Assets and the Retained Liabilities, as applicable. For purposes of determining the scope of the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities, the rights and Liabilities under each Allocable Shared Contract shall be equitably allocated among (a) the Business, on the one hand, and (b) the newspapers or other businesses other than the Business that will continue to be owned by Seller or its Affiliates and other buyers of newspapers of Seller or its Affiliates, to the extent applicable, after the Closing, on the other hand, in accordance with the following equitable allocation principles:

(i) any allocation set forth in the Allocable Shared Contract shall control;

(ii) if there is no allocation in the Allocable Shared Contract as described in clause (i) hereof, then any allocation previously made by Seller or its Affiliates in the ordinary course of business shall control;

(iii) if there is no allocation as described in clause (ii) hereof, then the quantifiable proportionate benefit to be received by Seller and Buyer after the Closing Date (to be determined by mutual good faith agreement of Seller and Buyer) shall control; and

(iv) if not quantifiable as described in clause (iii) hereof, then reasonable accommodation (to be determined by mutual good faith agreement of Seller and Buyer) shall control.

2.3.2 At the election of Seller and subject to any applicable Consents, such allocation may be effectuated by termination of the Allocable Shared Contract in its entirety and the execution of new Contracts or by an assignment to and assumption by Buyer of the Shared Contract Rights and the Shared Contract Liabilities under such Allocable Shared Contract, provided, that the effectuation of such allocation by termination of the Allocable Shared Contract in its entirety does not materially disadvantage Buyer. Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1.6, the completion of the documentation of any such termination and replacement or assignment is not a condition to the Closing. As soon as practicable after the execution of this Agreement, Seller shall make appropriate requests to obtain, at the election of Seller, either Consents from appropriate third parties to assignment and assumption by Buyer of such Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities or reasonably comparable replacement or separated Contracts (each, a “Replacement Contract”) that provide for the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities for the benefit of Buyer and the Business with the remaining rights and Liabilities for the benefit of Seller and its Affiliates, and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain such Consents or Replacement Contracts as expeditiously as possible. Any requests for such Consents or Replacement Contracts shall include a request that Seller and its Affiliates be unconditionally released from all Liabilities relating to the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities attributable to the period after the Closing; provided, such releases shall not be a condition to the processing or provision of such Consents or Replacement Contracts. Seller shall be responsible for and pay all administrative or processing fees imposed by any Person pursuant to the terms of the relevant Allocable Shared Contract or otherwise as a condition to processing any Consent or Replacement Contract requests. Buyer shall reasonably cooperate with Seller to obtain such Consents or Replacement Contracts. Nothing in this Section 2.3.2 shall require the expenditure or payment of any funds (other than in respect of normal and usual attorneys fees, administrative fees, processing fees, filing fees or other normal costs of doing business) or the giving of any other consideration by Seller or Buyer or any adjustment to the Purchase Price.

2.3.3 Except as set forth on Schedule 6.1.6, Buyer and Seller agree that obtaining the Consents or Replacement Contracts for the Allocable Shared Contracts is not a condition to the Closing. In the event that a Consent or Replacement Contract for an Allocable Shared Contract is not obtained by the Closing and the Closing occurs, Seller, in its sole discretion, may either assign the Shared Contract Rights and Shared Contract Liabilities arising under such Allocable Shared Contract to Buyer notwithstanding the absence of a Consent therefor or use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with Buyer in effecting a commercially reasonable arrangement permitted by Legal Rules and not inconsistent with such Allocable Shared Contract under which Buyer shall receive benefits under the Allocable Shared Contract corresponding to the Shared Contract Rights from and after the Closing, and, to the extent of the benefits received, Buyer shall pay and perform Seller’s and its Affiliates’ Liabilities arising under the Allocable Shared Contract (other than Liabilities arising from a breach thereof by Seller or any of its Affiliates prior to the Closing) corresponding to the Shared Contract Liabilities from and after the Closing in accordance with its terms; provided, that Seller and its Affiliates shall not be liable or have any further responsibility to Buyer for the failure of such Consents or Replacement Contracts to be obtained so long as Seller and its Affiliates have complied with this Section 2.3.3 in connection therewith.

2.4 Purchase Price. The purchase price for the Transferred Assets shall be One Hundred Forty-Two Million Dollars ($142,000,000), reduced or increased, as the case may be, on a dollar-for-dollar basis by the amount by which the Closing Adjustment Amount is less than or greater than the Target Adjustment Amount (such amount subject to such adjustments, the “Purchase Price”). If the Closing Adjustment Amount is less than the Target Adjustment Amount, then the Purchase Price shall include a corresponding reduction on a dollar-for-dollar basis, and if the Closing Adjustment Amount is greater than the Target Adjustment amount, then the Purchase Price shall include a corresponding increase on a dollar-for-dollar basis. At the Closing, Buyer shall deliver to Seller, via wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars in accordance with Seller’s written instructions (to be provided at least two (2) Business Days prior to the Closing), the Estimated Purchase Price.

2.5 Purchase Price Adjustment.

2.5.1 At least five (5) Business Days before the Closing Date, Seller shall prepare and deliver to Buyer a statement setting forth Seller’s good-faith estimate of the Adjustment Assets and the Adjustment Liabilities as of the Closing, the Closing Adjustment Amount, and the Purchase Price, as adjusted for such estimated Closing Adjustment Amount (such statement, the “Estimated Adjustment Statement”). The Closing Adjustment Amount and the Purchase Price calculated pursuant to such estimate for purposes of the Closing are referred to as the “Estimated Closing Adjustment Amount” and the “Estimated Purchase Price,” respectively. Such Estimated Adjustment Statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Section 2.5.1 and Section 2.5.5. Seller shall make available to Buyer reasonably detailed supporting calculations and work papers used to prepare the Estimated Adjustment Statement and relevant accounting personnel of Seller involved in the preparation of the Estimated Adjustment Statement, and Buyer shall notify Seller of any good faith disagreement with such calculation. Seller shall revise the Estimated Adjustment Statement to reflect the resolution of any such disagreement upon which Seller and Buyer may agree; provided, however, that Buyer and Seller shall utilize Seller’s estimates to the extent any disagreement remains unresolved for purposes of the adjustment to be applied at the Closing for determining the Estimated Purchase Price.

2.5.2 Buyer shall prepare and deliver to Seller a statement of Adjustment Assets and Adjustment Liabilities as of the Closing (the “Adjustment Statement”), which statement shall be prepared in accordance with this Section 2.5.2 and Section 2.5.5, as promptly as practicable, but in any event within sixty (60) days after Seller has provided to Buyer complete and correct copies of any and all books and records, or other data regularly prepared by Seller, as reasonably requested by Buyer to prepare the Adjustment Statement (the “Adjustment Statement Period”). If Buyer does not prepare and deliver the Adjustment Statement to Seller prior to the end of the Adjustment Statement Period, Buyer shall be deemed to have approved the Estimated Adjustment Statement for purposes of the adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 2.5.4. Seller shall notify Buyer in writing of any objections that Seller may have to the Adjustment Statement within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Adjustment Statement. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, during such thirty (30) day period, Buyer shall make its relevant accounting personnel (and reasonably detailed supporting calculations and work papers used to prepare the Adjustment Statement) available to Seller and its representatives for purposes of Seller’s review of the Adjustment Statement.

2.5.3 If Seller does not notify Buyer in writing of any objections to the Adjustment Statement prior to the end of such thirty (30) day period, Seller shall be deemed to have approved the Adjustment Statement for purposes of the adjustment to be made pursuant to Section 2.5.4. If Seller notifies Buyer in writing of any objections to the Adjustment Statement prior to the end of such thirty (30) day period, Buyer and Seller shall attempt to resolve the differences between Buyer and Seller in good faith for a period of thirty (30) days after the date of Buyer’s receipt of such notice of objections. If Seller and Buyer resolve such differences within such period, the determination of Buyer and Seller shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. If any such differences cannot be resolved within such thirty (30) day period, the disputed items shall be referred promptly to PricewaterhouseCoopers, or if such firm is not available, another independent certified public accounting firm of national reputation, which is mutually satisfactory to the parties, which has been retained by neither Seller, Buyer nor any of their respective Affiliates for any material engagement during the one (1) year period preceding the date of such referral, and which has agreed to meet the time deadlines imposed herein; provided that if Seller and Buyer cannot agree on such an independent accounting firm, the firm shall be selected by an accounting firm designated by Buyer and an accounting firm designated by Seller; provided, further, that if no firm is designated within thirty (30) days by the accounting firms so designated by Buyer and Seller, the accounting firm shall be designated by the American Arbitration Association (Richmond, Virginia office). Seller and Buyer shall instruct such firm to make its determination with respect to such disputed items (and only such disputed items) within thirty (30) days after the date of the execution of the engagement letter of such firm by the parties thereto. The determination of such firm shall be conclusive and binding on Seller and Buyer. Such firm shall make such determination in accordance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement and shall not award an amount more favorable to Buyer than the corresponding amounts claimed by Buyer in its Adjustment Statement or more favorable to Seller than the corresponding amounts claimed by Seller in its notice of objections. Seller and Buyer shall each pay one-half of the fees of such firm and any fees owed to the American Arbitration Association (if applicable).

2.5.4 If, based on the Adjustment Statement as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.5.3, it is determined that the amount, if any, paid by Buyer at the Closing in accordance with Section 2.4 should have been more or less than what was paid on the Closing Date, then, within three (3) Business Days after the final determination of the Adjustment Statement, Buyer or Seller, as applicable, shall pay to the other party the amount of such underpayment or overpayment by wire of immediately available U.S. funds to an account designated in writing by such other party at least two (2) Business Days prior to such payment.

2.5.5 Schedule 2.5.5 sets forth and describes the accounts and line items that will comprise the Adjustment Assets and Adjustment Liabilities. The parties agree that for purposes of preparing the Estimated Adjustment Statement and the Adjustment Statement, (i) such statements shall be presented using the same accounts and line items as set forth on Schedule 2.5.5, (ii) for purposes of the Estimated Adjustment Statement, Adjustment Assets and Adjustment Liabilities shall be determined as of the last month end preceding the Closing Date; (iii) for purposes of the Adjustment Statement, Adjustment Assets and Adjustment Liabilities shall be determined as of 12:01 a.m., local time, on the Closing Date, and (iv) Adjustment Assets and Adjustment Liabilities shall be determined in accordance with GAAP, except with respect to the determination of certain non-GAAP accounts and line items specified on Schedule 2.5.5, which shall not be determined in accordance with GAAP but shall be determined in accordance with the principles and methodologies historically used by Seller and its Affiliates in determining such amounts.

2.6 Allocation of Purchase Price. Seller and Buyer agree to use good faith efforts to agree to an allocation of the aggregate purchase consideration among the Transferred Assets in a manner consistent with Section 1060 of the Code and the United States Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder within one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date and, if Seller and Buyer reach such agreement, then Seller and Buyer agree to file all income Tax forms and Returns (including IRS Form 8594 or any successor form) in accordance with such allocation and agree not to take any position before any taxing authority that is inconsistent with such allocation. If Seller and Buyer shall not have agreed on such allocation by the one hundred twentieth (120th) day following the Closing Date, then Seller and Buyer shall have no further obligations pursuant to this Section 2.6, and each of Seller and Buyer shall make its own determination of such allocation for financial and tax reporting purposes. Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, during such one hundred twenty (120) day period, Seller shall make its relevant personnel and its books and records reasonably available to Buyer and its representatives in connection with the determination of the allocation of the aggregate purchase consideration.

(iii) all Adjustment Liabilities; and

2.7.3 Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, except as set forth in the second sentence of this Section 2.7.3, this Article 2 shall not constitute an agreement to assign or assume any Contract related to the Transferred Assets or the Business, or any claim, commitment, sales order or purchase order or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom included within the Transferred Assets or the Assumed Liabilities if an attempted assignment or assumption of the same, without a Consent, would constitute a breach thereof. If any Consent is not obtained so that the Buyer does not, in fact, receive the rights, or assume the obligations, of Seller with respect thereto as they exist as of the Closing Date, without limitation of any rights and remedies of the parties hereunder, then Seller and Buyer shall enter into such commercially reasonable cooperative arrangements as may be reasonably acceptable to the Seller and Buyer to provide Buyer with the benefits of such Transferred Asset and to relieve Seller from the obligations of such Assumed Liability.

2.8 Name; Affiliated Services.

2.8.1 Without limiting the terms of Section 2.2.6, after the Closing, Buyer shall remove or delete the name “Media General” and any derivations thereof from the Transferred Assets as soon as reasonably practicable, but, in any event, by the ninetieth (90th) day following the Closing, except that Buyer shall not be obligated to remove the name “Media General” and any derivations thereof from Transferred Assets that constitute historical assets from which it would not be practicable to remove such name or derivations. By way of example only, such historical assets include newspaper morgue assets, books of account, and financial records.

2.8.2 Except as will be provided in the Buyer Transition Services Agreement, Buyer acknowledges and agrees that all services currently provided for, or all rights licensed for use by, or on behalf of, Seller and its Affiliates in connection with the operation of the Business, including all customary corporate overhead and other services, including those described on Schedule 3.18, shall cease to be provided to the Business and shall not be provided to Buyer effective as of the Closing.

Except as set forth on Schedule 3.6.2, all material Transferred Assets which, individually or in the aggregate, are material to the Business are in adequate operating condition for their respective present uses and operation, given the age of such property and the use to which such property is put, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and its use complies in all material respects with all Legal Rules.

Seller has no reason to believe that any particular lessor under any Lease will not consent (where such consent is necessary) to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without requiring any modifications of the rights or obligations of the lessee thereunder.

The Fundamental Representations and the representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.1 and 4.2 shall survive the Closing until the third (3rd) anniversary of the Closing Date. The representations and warranties contained in Section 3.16 shall survive until the seventh (7th) anniversary of the Closing Date. The several covenants and agreements of the parties contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and shall survive until the performance by the applicable party hereto of such covenant and agreement; provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, any such covenant or agreement required to be performed prior to the Closing and actually performed prior to the Closing in compliance with this Agreement in all material respects shall not survive the Closing. No claim may be made against any party hereto, and no party hereto shall have any Liability to any other party hereto, arising out of or resulting from a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement after the survival period specified above shall have expired, except that if a claim shall have been made by a party hereto against another party hereto prior to the expiration of the applicable survival period specified above, then, in each case, such survival period shall be extended as it relates to such claim until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof.

9.2 Indemnification by Seller. After the Closing, Parent and Seller shall indemnify and hold Buyer harmless against and with respect to, and shall reimburse Buyer for:

9.2.1 Losses resulting from any breach by Seller of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 3;

9.2.2 Losses resulting from any breach by Seller of any covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement; and

9.2.3 Losses resulting from the Retained Liabilities; and

9.2.4 Losses resulting from any failure by Seller to transfer to Buyer, with respect to Software included in the Transferred Assets, Software and licenses therefor sufficient to lawfully and properly conduct the Business as currently conducted. For the avoidance of doubt, any limitations herein on indemnification pursuant to Section 9.2.1 shall not apply in respect of indemnification pursuant to this Section 9.2.4 solely because the basis for any indemnification claimed by Buyer pursuant to this Section 9.2.4 is of the same or similar subject matter as any representation or warranty set forth in Article 3.

9.3 Indemnification by Buyer. After the Closing, Buyer shall indemnify and hold Seller harmless against and with respect to, and shall reimburse Seller for:

9.3.1 Losses resulting from any breach by Buyer of any representation or warranty set forth in Article 4;

9.3.2 Losses resulting from any breach by Buyer of any covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement; and

9.3.3 Losses resulting from the Assumed Liabilities.

9.4 Procedure for Indemnification. The procedure for indemnification shall be as follows:

9.4.1 The party claiming indemnification (the “Claimant”) shall promptly give notice to the party from whom indemnification is claimed (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim, whether between the parties or brought by a third party, specifying (a) the factual basis for such claim and (b) the estimated amount of the claim. If the claim relates to an action, suit or proceeding filed by a third party against Claimant, such notice shall be given promptly by Claimant to the Indemnifying Party after written notice of such action, suit or proceeding is received by Claimant; provided, however, that the failure of the Claimant to give timely notice hereunder shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article 9 unless, and only to the extent that, the Indemnifying Party has been materially prejudiced thereby.

9.4.2 With respect to claims solely between the parties, following receipt of notice from the Claimant of a claim, the Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days to make such investigation of the claim as the Indemnifying Party deems necessary or desirable. For the purposes of such investigation, the Claimant agrees to provide to the Indemnifying Party and its representatives reasonable detail concerning the basis for such claim. If the Claimant and the Indemnifying Party agree at or prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof) to the validity and amount of such claim, the Indemnifying Party shall immediately pay to the Claimant the recoverable amount of the claim, subject to the terms hereof (including Section 9.5). If the Claimant and the Indemnifying Party do not agree to the validity and amount of such claim within such thirty (30) day period (or any mutually agreed upon extension thereof), the Claimant may seek appropriate remedies at law or equity, as applicable, subject to the limitations of Section 9.5.

9.4.3 With respect to any claim by a third party as to which the Claimant is entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to participate in or assume control of the defense of such claim with one or more counsel reasonably acceptable to the Claimant, and the Claimant shall cooperate fully with the Indemnifying Party, subject to reimbursement for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Claimant as the result of a request by the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to assume control of the defense of any third-party claim, the Claimant shall have the right, but not the obligation, to participate in the defense of such claim at its own expense.

If the Indemnifying Party does not elect to assume control of the defense of any third-party claim, or fails to timely prosecute such defense, then the Claimant may defend through counsel of its own choosing (and the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for the reasonable fees of such counsel if and to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is required to indemnify the Claimant with respect to the underlying third-party claim), subject to the right of the Indemnifying Party to participate in the defense thereof at any time prior to the settlement, compromise or final determination thereof with additional counsel at its sole cost and expense. No party shall compromise or settle any third party claim, action or suit without the prior written consent of the other party; provided, however, that if such compromise or settlement relates only to monetary amounts and provides for the full and unconditional release of the Claimant from all Liability in connection with such claim, then the Indemnifying Party may settle such claim without the Claimant’s consent as long as the Indemnifying Party is responsible for the recoverable amount of such claim (subject to the limitations of Section 9.5) and the settlement of such claim does not contain an admission of wrongdoing on the part of the Claimant.

9.5 Limitation on Indemnification; Exclusive Remedy.

9.5.1 No Indemnifying Party shall have an obligation to indemnify the Claimant under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.3.1, and no Claimant shall make any claim under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.3.1, unless and until the aggregate amount of such Claimant’s Losses exceeds an amount equal to one percent (1%) of the Purchase Price (the “Deductible”), and then the Indemnifying Party shall only be liable for Losses exceeding the Deductible. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, this Section 9.5.1 shall not apply in respect of an inaccuracy in, or breach of, a representation or warranty in Section 3.1, 3.2, 4.1 or 4.2, or a claim for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct.

9.5.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) the aggregate maximum liability of any party to another party under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.3.1 (other than in respect of an inaccuracy in, or breach of, a Fundamental Representation or a representation or warranty in Section 4.1 or 4.2, or a claim for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct) shall be limited to (in the aggregate) an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Purchase Price, and (b) the aggregate maximum liability of any party to another party under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.3.1 in respect of an inaccuracy in, or breach of, a Fundamental Representation or a representation or warranty in Section 4.1 or 4.2 (other than in respect of a claim for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct), shall be limited to (in the aggregate and including all amounts recovered under Section 9.2.1 or Section 9.3.1) an amount equal to the Purchase Price. For the avoidance of doubt, any liability of Parent or Seller to Buyer pursuant to Section 9.2.2, 9.2.3, 9.3.2, 9.3.3 or 9.3.4 shall not be subject to an aggregate maximum amount, nor shall such liability of Seller to Buyer be included in the calculation of the aggregate liabilities subject to the maximum amounts set forth in clause (a) and clause (b) of this Section 9.5.2.

9.5.3 Solely for the purpose of calculating the amount of any Losses arising out of or resulting from any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement (and not for determining the existence of any breach of any representation or warranty contained in this Agreement), any reference to a “Material Adverse Effect” or “materiality” or other correlative terms in such representation or warranty shall be disregarded.

9.5.4 The amount of any Losses attributable to any claim by a third party as to which any Claimant is entitled to indemnification under this Article 9 shall be reduced by the amount, if any, actually received by the Claimant claiming indemnification in respect of such third-party claim from any Person (including any third-party insurance provider) less any out-of-pocket cost associated with receiving such amount (such amount being referred to herein as an “Alternative Reimbursement”), with respect to the Losses suffered thereby. If, after receipt by such Claimant of any indemnification payment hereunder in respect of such third-party claim, such Claimant receives an Alternative Reimbursement in respect of the same Losses for which indemnification was made and such Alternative Reimbursement was not taken into account in assessing the amount of indemnifiable Losses, then such Claimant shall accept such Alternative Reimbursement for the account of the Indemnifying Party and shall turn over all of such Alternative Reimbursement to the Indemnifying Party up to the amount of the indemnification paid by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement in respect of the applicable claim for indemnification. The parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other to maximize the availability of any Alternative Reimbursements for indemnifiable claims hereunder arising from third-party claims, and, if any insurance provider for a party agrees to defend any such third-party claim, such Person may tender the defense to such third-party insurance provider.

9.5.5 The parties shall cooperate with each other and use their respective commercially reasonable efforts with respect to resolving any Liability and mitigating Losses with respect to which an Indemnifying Party is obligated to indemnify a Claimant pursuant to this Article 9.

9.5.6 No claim for indemnification or cause of action arising under or resulting from this Agreement, any Related Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby may be asserted by a party (unless as a result of a third party claim against an Indemnitee) for indirect, punitive, exemplary, consequential (but only to the extent not reasonably foreseeable) or similar damages, even if advised of the possibility thereof.

9.5.7 After the Closing, the sole and exclusive remedy of any party for any claim (whether such claim is framed in tort, contract or otherwise) arising out of a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement of Seller or Buyer set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement shall be a claim for indemnification under and pursuant to this Article 9, except for the remedies of specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief; provided, however, that nothing in this Article 9 shall be deemed to limit a party’s remedies for claims for fraud, intentional misrepresentation or willful misconduct.

10. MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 No Other Representations or Warranties. Buyer acknowledges and agrees that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates or representatives have made or shall be construed as having made or deemed to have made to Buyer or any of its Affiliates or representatives, and neither Buyer nor any of its Affiliates or representatives has relied upon, representations or warranties other than those contained in Article 3 or any Related Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer agrees that neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates or representatives has made any representation or warranty to Buyer or to any of its Affiliates or representatives with respect to any Projections or, except to the extent and as expressly covered

by a representation and warranty of Seller contained in Article 3, with respect to the Confidential Information Memorandum prepared by Seller and its Affiliates (the “CIM”) dated April 2012. “Projections” means estimates, projections and other forecasts regarding the future financial results and operating performance of the Business, and plan and budget information with respect thereto, furnished to Buyer or its representatives by Seller or its representatives.

10.2 Disclosure. Disclosure of information included on any disclosure schedule (or portion of any disclosure schedule) shall be considered disclosures for all other disclosure schedules (or other portions of other disclosure schedules) to the extent that it is reasonably apparent from the face of such disclosure that such disclosure is applicable to such other disclosure schedules (or other portions of disclosure schedules). In addition, (a) the fact that any disclosure on any schedule is not required to be disclosed in order to render the applicable representation or warranty to which it relates true, or that the absence of such disclosure on any schedule would not constitute a breach of such representation or warranty, shall not be deemed or construed to expand the scope of any representation or warranty hereunder or to establish a standard of disclosure in respect of any representation or warranty and (b) disclosure of a particular matter on any schedule shall not be construed to mean that such matter is material or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

10.3 Notices. All notices, demands and requests which may be or are required or permitted to be given, served, sent or delivered under the provisions of this Agreement shall be (a) in writing, (b) delivered by personal delivery, facsimile transmission (to be followed promptly by written confirmation mailed by certified mail as provided below) or sent by overnight courier service or certified mail, return receipt requested, (c) deemed to have been given on the earliest of: the date of personal delivery, the date of transmission and receipt of facsimile transmissions, or the date set forth in the records of the delivery service or on the return receipt and (d) addressed as follows:

Rejection or other refusal to accept or inability to deliver because of a change of address of which no notice was given shall be deemed to be receipt of the notice.

10.4 No Assignment; Benefit and Binding Effect. Neither party shall assign this Agreement (or its rights or obligations hereunder) without the prior written consent of the other party. This Agreement and the Related Agreements shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

10.5 Bulk Transfer. Buyer acknowledges that Seller has not filed, and shall not file, any bulk transfer notice or otherwise comply with applicable bulk transfer laws, and the parties agree to waive compliance with same.

10.6 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed, construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the choice of law provisions or conflicts of law principles of such state.

10.7 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives all right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim (whether based on contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Related Agreements or the actions of any party in the negotiation, performance or enforcement hereof or thereof.

10.8 Submission to Jurisdiction; Venue. Each of the parties hereto agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Delaware Court of Chancery in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Related Agreements or any of the matters contemplated hereby or thereby; provided, however, that in the event that the Delaware Court of Chancery does not have subject matter jurisdiction over any such action or proceeding, each of the parties hereto agrees to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court, District of Delaware. Each party hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the Related Agreements in such Delaware state or federal courts. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Legal Rules, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any such action or proceeding in such courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees not to bring any action arising out of this Agreement or the Related Agreements other than in the Delaware Court of Chancery or the United States District Court, District of Delaware, as provided in this Section 10.8.

10.9 Heading; Interpretation. The descriptive headings of the several Articles and Sections of this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and do not constitute a part of this Agreement. References to Sections or Articles (whether or not capitalized), unless otherwise indicated, are references to Sections and Articles of this Agreement. References to Schedules and Exhibits (whether or not capitalized), unless otherwise indicated, are references to the disclosure schedules and exhibits to this Agreement. The words “include” and “including” and variations thereof shall not be deemed terms of limitation, but rather shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The terms “hereof”, “herein” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to this Agreement as a whole (including all of the schedules and exhibits hereto) and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. Each of the representations, warranties, covenants and conditions herein is separate and not limited or satisfied by the existence, wording or satisfaction of any other representation, warranty, covenant or condition contained herein. Any definition of or reference to any agreement, instrument, document, statute or regulation herein shall be construed as referring to such agreement, instrument, document, statute or regulation as it may from time to time be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified; provided that such references in Article 3 or Article 4 shall not include any such amendments, supplements or other modifications after the date hereof (made in compliance with Section 5.1.1) or after the Closing, as the context of the applicable provisions of Article 3 or Article 4 may require. All references to “$” or “Dollars” shall mean United States Dollars.

10.10 Gender and Number. Words used herein, regardless of the gender and number specifically used, shall be deemed and construed to include any other gender, masculine, feminine or neuter, and any other number, singular or plural, as the context requires.

10.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Related Agreements, along with the Confidentiality Agreement to the extent incorporated herein pursuant to Section 5.8, represent the entire understanding and agreement between Buyer and Seller with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior negotiations between Buyer and Seller with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, and all letters of intent and other writings relating to such negotiations, and cannot be amended, supplemented or modified except by an agreement in writing which makes specific reference to this Agreement or an agreement delivered pursuant hereto, as the case may be, and which is executed by the party against which enforcement of any such amendment, supplement or modification is sought. All schedules and exhibits attached to this Agreement shall be deemed part of this Agreement and incorporated herein, as if fully set forth herein.

10.12 Further Assurances. From time to time after the Closing Date, Buyer or Seller or Seller’s Affiliates shall execute or deliver or cause to be executed or delivered such further instruments of conveyance, assignment, transfer and assumption, as may reasonably be requested by the other party in order to effect or facilitate the transactions contemplated hereby. The parties acknowledge and agree that it is their mutual intent that any and all Transferred Assets are duly transferred to Buyer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Related Agreements. If and to the extent that following the Closing it is determined that Seller or any of its Affiliates owns, controls or otherwise holds any Transferred Assets, Parent and Seller shall promptly notify Buyer thereof in writing, including providing Buyer with all information, files, and books and records (other than Excluded Assets, if any) pertaining to such Transferred Asset, and shall promptly take (or cause to be taken) any and all actions, and execute, acknowledge and deliver (or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered) to Buyer all instruments of conveyance and transfer as Buyer reasonably deems necessary or desirable to evidence and/or effectuate the transfer to Buyer all of the right, title and interest of Seller or such Affiliate(s) in and to such Transferred Asset, free and clear of any Encumbrance, other than Permitted Encumbrances.

10.13 Waiver of Compliance. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, any failure of any of the parties to comply with any obligation, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof, but such waiver or failure to insist upon strict compliance with such obligation, representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure not so specifically waived.

10.14 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect by a court of competent jurisdiction, shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability, without affecting in any way the remaining provisions hereof; provided, however, that the parties will attempt in good faith to reform this Agreement in a manner consistent with the intent of any such ineffective provision for the purpose of carrying out such intent.

10.15 Enforcement of Agreement. Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of this Agreement by the other party, that the parties hereto would suffer irreparable harm as a result of any such breach, and that, in addition to all other remedies available under this Agreement or at law or in equity, the parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief as a remedy for any such breach or threatened breach. In the event of any action by any party to enforce this Agreement, the other parties hereto hereby waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. The parties recognize and agree that Seller and Buyer have both relied on this Agreement and expended considerable effort and resources related to the transactions contemplated hereby, that the right and benefits conferred upon Seller and Buyer herein are unique, and that damages may not be adequate to compensate Seller or Buyer in the event either refuses to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and effect the Closing in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof. The parties therefore acknowledge and agree that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing and in addition to any and all remedies available to them, Seller shall be entitled to enforce specifically Buyer’s obligation to purchase the Transferred Assets for the Purchase Price and assume the Assumed Liabilities and otherwise to effect the Closing, if Buyer’s conditions to the Closing set forth in Article 6.1 are satisfied or capable of being satisfied.

10.16 Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if the signature on each such counterpart were upon the same instrument, and a facsimile or portable document format (pdf) transmission shall be deemed to be an original signature for all purposes under this Agreement.

10.17 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement constitutes an agreement solely among the parties hereto, and, except as otherwise provided herein, is not intended to and shall not confer any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities, legal or equitable on any Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors or assigns, or otherwise constitute any Person a third party beneficiary under or by reason of this Agreement.

10.18 Construction. This Agreement has been negotiated by Buyer and Seller and their respective legal counsel, and legal or equitable principles that might require the construction of this Agreement or any provision of this Agreement against the party drafting this Agreement shall not apply in any construction or interpretation of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

10.19 Public Announcements. Each party shall consult with the other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement without the prior written approval of the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that they may, without each other’s prior consent, issue such press releases or make such public statements as may be compelled by Legal Rules, in which case the issuing party shall provide the other party with a draft of such press release or public statement at least two (2) Business Days in advance, if practicable, consult with the other party regarding such press release or such public statement, as the case may be, and use all commercially reasonable efforts to agree upon the nature, content and form of such press release or public statement.

10.20 No Personal Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision set forth in this Agreement, no director, officer, employee or individual representative of Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, or of Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, shall have any personal liability as a result of any breach by Seller or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, or by Buyer or any of its Affiliates, on the other hand, of their respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained herein.

10.21 Expenses. Except as expressly set forth elsewhere in this Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall bear their own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the negotiation, preparation or execution of this Agreement (including fees and expenses of attorneys, accountants, consultants, finders and investment bankers), whether or not the Closing occurs.

Exhibit B to Asset Purchase Agreement

Term Sheet for Buyer Transition Services Agreement

It is the intention of Buyer and Seller that after the Closing Seller and its Affiliates will provide to Buyer services, on a transitional basis, in the same or similar manner consistent with past practice that such services are provided to the Business on the date of the Asset Purchase Agreement, in the categories and on the terms set forth below for the period of time indicated or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. In exchange for the provision of the services Buyer will reimburse Seller for any allocable third-party costs and its allocable internal costs (calculated as Seller’s current year-to-date 2012 rates through signing of the Asset Purchase Agreement for such services plus 10%). Reimbursable costs will include any costs to obtain any incremental hardware or software necessary to provide the services and any costs Seller may reasonably incur to maintain the services of existing personnel (e.g., stay bonuses) or retain the services of additional personnel (e.g., contracting projects to third parties) to provide the services (collectively, “Reimbursable Costs”). Seller will inform Buyer of reasonably estimated third party costs and Reimbursable Costs that exceed a threshold amount to be agreed prior to incurring such costs. Seller will issue invoices to Buyer for reimbursement for the services, which will be payable within 30 days. If Buyer and Seller agree that additional transition services will be provided to Buyer, those services will be charged to Buyer at the same rate described above. Buyer will provide 30 days advance written notice to Seller if it determines that it no longer requires any of the services at or after Closing. The Transition Services Agreement will include other customary terms as mutually agreed by Buyer and Seller.

Information Technology

Buyer and Seller acknowledge that purchases of IT hardware and software will need to be made in order to properly separate newspaper applications from Seller’s shared applications. Buyer and Seller have worked together to split existing hardware and software used in connection with the Business, as reflected in the key principles and terms set forth on Appendix A attached hereto. Based on, and subject to, the agreed upon split of hardware and software, the parties have agreed, pursuant to such separation, that Seller shall purchase for Buyer’s benefit (or provide funds to Buyer to allow for the purchase of) hardware and software approved by Buyer, with Seller’s out-of-pocket costs capped at $500,000.

Human Resources

Seller and its Affiliates will provide human resources shared services, including establishing and maintaining a data base including employee records, new hires, terminations, and (upon request) safety services to Buyer for up to six months after Closing.

Accounting

Seller and its Affiliates will provide accounting shared services, including accounting, accounting system, payroll, remittance processing, accounts payable, billing, and consolidations services to Buyer for up to seven months after Closing; provided that no payrolls for 2013 will be run on Seller’s or its Affiliates’ systems.

Business Office Support

Digital

·	Seller and its Affiliates will provide digital shared services, including content management, audience reporting, creative services, advertising operations, product management, sales operation and execution, and systems and infrastructure, to Buyer for up to nine months after Closing.

From time to time before the Closing and consistent with Section 5.7 of the Agreement, Seller and Buyer shall work together in good faith to reach a mutual agreement no later than one week prior to the Closing regarding how they will split the work, product and tools relating to Seller’s digital media function between the Transferred Assets and the Excluded Assets.

As part of the mutually agreed split of such work, product, and tools relating to Seller’s digital media product development function, Buyer may make offers of employment to a reasonable percentage of Seller employees associated therewith or related thereto. The work related tools associated with the job functions of any such employees who accept such offer of employment shall also be transferred to Buyer.

Existing desktop licenses and computers Seller has with respect to Transferred Employees shall transfer to Buyer. In addition, workstations (cubicles and filing cabinets, etc.) shall move and transfer with the Transferred Employees when any Transferred Employee relocates from a Seller corporate office to a newspaper office being acquired by Buyer. And in the event any Seller employee who does not become a Transferred Employee needs to relocate from a newspaper office being acquired by Buyer, that person’s desktop license, computer and workstation shall also move and transfer with such employee. Post-closing the parties shall cooperate and work together to try to mitigate the move of workstations to the extent the parties can swap equivalent workstations without the need to disassemble or move such workstations. In the event the disassembly and move of workstations is required post-closing, such cost shall be borne by the employer of the person being relocated.

SECTION 6. Transfers and Exchanges.

6.1 Transfers.

(a) The Holder may transfer, assign or encumber all or any part of a Warrant Certificate to any Person, provided, however, that such transfer shall be in compliance with the Securities Act or any state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “blue sky” laws applicable to the Company or the Warrants.

(b) Upon written notice from the Holder of any transfer permitted pursuant to Section 6.1(a) and receipt of such customary documents as the Company may reasonably request to assure itself that such transfer is in compliance with the Securities Act or any applicable state (or other jurisdiction) securities or “blue sky” laws, the Company shall reflect in its records any change in record ownership pursuant to any such transfer.

6.2 Exchange of Warrant Certificates. Warrant Certificates may be exchanged at the option of the Holder, when surrendered to the Company during normal business hours for another Warrant Certificate or other Warrant Certificates of like tenor and representing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants. Warrant Certificates surrendered for exchange shall be cancelled by the Company. Such cancelled Warrant Certificates shall then be disposed of by the Company in accordance with applicable Law.

SECTION 7. Exercise of Warrants.

7.1 Vesting of Warrants. The Warrants shall vest immediately upon the execution of this Agreement.

7.2 Exercise of Warrants. A Warrant may be exercised upon surrender to the Company of the Warrant Certificate evidencing the Warrant to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly completed and signed, and upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price, as adjusted from time to time as provided herein, for each Warrant Share then purchased. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for all Warrant Shares being purchased in respect of a Warrant shall be made (a) by wire transfer of immediately available funds in U.S. Dollars or (b) by certified or official bank check for U.S. Dollars made payable to the order of the Company. Each Warrant not exercised prior to the Expiration Date shall become void and all rights thereunder and all rights in respect thereof under this Agreement shall cease as of such time. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Holder hereby acknowledges and agrees that its exercise of a Warrant for Warrant Shares is subject to the condition that the Holder will have first received any necessary Regulatory Approvals; provided, however, that in the event the Holder has delivered a notice of exercise to the Company prior to the Expiration Date and any Regulatory Approvals with respect to such exercise are pending as of the Expiration Date, the Expiration Date with respect to such Warrants shall automatically be extended for a period of 30 days following final approval or disapproval of any such Regulatory Approval. The Company agrees that if the exercise of any Warrant requires any Regulatory Approval it will promptly provide the Holder all cooperation reasonably requested to obtain such Regulatory Approvals.

7.3 Issuance of Certificates Representing Shares. Upon such surrender of Warrant Certificates and payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (unless such exercise is pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof (in which case no Exercise Price shall be due)), the Company shall cause to be delivered promptly to, or upon the written order of, the Holder, and in such name or names as the Holder may designate, a certificate or certificates for the number of full Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants together with cash in lieu of fractional Shares as provided in Section 7.8. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and any Person so designated to be named therein shall be deemed to have become a holder of such Warrant Shares as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants Certificates and, if applicable, payment of the aggregate Exercise Price.

7.4 Issuance of New Warrant Certificates. Each Warrant shall be exercisable at the election of the Holder thereof, either in full or from time to time in part (in whole numbers of Warrant Shares), and, in the event that a Warrant is exercised (and a Warrant Certificate is surrendered) in respect of fewer than all of the Warrant Shares issuable on such exercise at any time prior to the Expiration Date, a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the remaining Warrant or Warrants will be issued and delivered by the Company.

7.5 Cancellation of Warrant Certificates. All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company in accordance with applicable Law.

7.6 Warrant Agreement. The Company shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holder during normal business hours at its office.

7.7 Alternative Cashless Exercise. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, in lieu of exercising a Warrant as set forth above, the Holder may exercise a Warrant by electing to receive that number of Shares as determined below by surrendering to the Company such Warrant Certificate, with the applicable election to purchase such Share(s) duly completed and signed by the Holder, in which event the Company shall deliver to the Holder the number of Shares computed using the following formula:


S	=	WS (MP – PP)
		MP

where:

“S” equals the net number of Warrant Shares to be issued to the Holder;

“WS” equals the number of Warrant Shares purchasable under the Warrant or, if only a portion of the Warrant is being exercised, the portion of the Warrant being exercised;

“MP” equals the Current Market Price; and

“PP” equals the Exercise Price.

Following the surrender of any Warrant pursuant to this Section 7.7, the Company shall promptly record the name of the Holder in the Warrant Register for that number of Shares, as calculated above, or in such name or names as may be designated by such Holder.

7.8 Fractional Shares. The Company shall not be required to deliver fractional Warrant Shares on the exercise of any Warrant. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Warrant Shares which shall be deliverable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Warrant Shares purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Warrant Share would, except for the provisions of this Section 7.8, be deliverable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), the Company shall pay an amount in cash equal to the Market Price multiplied by such fraction.

7.9 When Exercise Effective. The exercise of any Warrant shall be deemed to have been effective immediately prior to the close of business on the Business Day on which such Warrant is surrendered to and, unless such exercise is pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof (in which case no Exercise Price shall be due), the Exercise Price is received by the Company as provided in this Section 7 (the “Exercise Date”) and the Person in whose name the Shares shall be issuable upon such exercise shall be deemed to be the holder of such Shares for all purposes on the Exercise Date.

SECTION 8. Adjustment of Exercise Price. If any of the events set forth in this Section 8 occur during the Exercise Period, the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares for which any Warrant is exercisable, as applicable, shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as set forth in this Section 8; provided, however, that if more than one subsection of this Section 8 is applicable to a single event, the subsection shall be applied that produces the largest adjustment in favor of the Holder (as determined by the Board in good faith). All of the adjustments referred to in this Section 8 shall only apply to Warrants which have not yet been exercised and shall not apply the issuance of any Warrant Shares upon exercise of any Warrant (or the initial issuance of Warrants pursuant to this Agreement).

8.1 Adjustments for Change in Shares. If at any time the Company shall:

(a) make a distribution on its Shares payable in Additional Shares or shares of other Capital Stock;

(b) subdivide its outstanding Shares into a greater number of Shares;

(d) issue by reclassification of the Shares any shares of its Capital Stock (other than rights, warrants or options for its Shares);

then (i) the aggregate number of Warrant Shares for which any Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such action shall be adjusted so that the Holder shall be entitled to receive upon exercise of such Warrant the number of Shares that the Holder would have owned or would have been entitled to receive immediately following such action if the Holder had exercised such Warrant immediately prior to such action and (ii) the Exercise Price payable upon the exercise of such Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon the exercise of such Warrant immediately prior to such adjustment and the denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares issuable immediately thereafter.

8.2 Adjustment for Rights Issue.

(a) If the Company distributes any rights, warrants, options or other securities exercisable or convertible into or exchangeable (collectively, an “Exercise”) for Shares (collectively, “Rights”) to all holders of its Shares entitling them to purchase Shares at a price per Share (or having an exercise price per Share) less than the Market Price of the Shares as of the last Trading Day preceding the date of the agreement on pricing such rights, then, in such event:

(i) the number of Warrant Shares for which any Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to the date of the agreement on pricing of such Rights (the “Initial Number”) shall be increased to the number obtained by multiplying the Initial Number by a fraction (A) the numerator of which shall be the sum of (1) the number of Shares outstanding on such date on a fully diluted basis (i.e., taking into account any previously issued Rights (including the Warrants) exercisable for Shares then outstanding) and (2) the number of Additional Shares for which Rights then being issued may be Exercised and

(B) the denominator of which shall be the sum of (1) the number of Shares outstanding on such date on a fully diluted basis (i.e., taking into account any previously issued Rights (including the Warrants) exercisable for Shares then outstanding) and (2) the number of Shares which the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company for the total number of Shares for which Rights then being issued may be Exercised would purchase at the Market Price on the last Trading Day preceding the date of the agreement on pricing such Rights; and

(ii) the Exercise Price payable upon exercise of a Warrant shall be adjusted by multiplying such Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the date of the agreement on pricing of such Rights by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares prior to such date and the denominator of which shall be the number of Warrant Shares immediately after the adjustment described in Section 8.2(a)(i).

(b) For purposes of the foregoing, the aggregate consideration receivable by the Company in connection with the issuance of such Rights shall be deemed to be equal to the sum of the net offering price (including the fair market value, as determined by the Investment Bank, of any non-cash consideration and after deduction of any related expenses payable to third parties) of all such Rights plus the minimum aggregate amount, if any, payable upon exercise of any such Rights into Shares. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 8.2 shall become effective immediately upon the date of such issuance.

8.3 Adjustment for Other Non-Cash Distributions.

(a) If the Company distributes to all holders of its Shares any of its non-cash assets, equity interests of the Company other than Shares or debt securities or any rights, warrants or options to purchase securities of the Company or other equity interests of the Company other than Shares (including securities but excluding distributions of Shares referred to in Section 8.1, distributions of rights, warrants or options referred to in Section 8.2 and any spin-off as described in Section 8.3(c)), the Exercise Price shall be adjusted in accordance with the formula:

E′ = E - F

where:

E' = the adjusted Exercise Price;

E = the current Exercise Price; and

F = the fair market value (on the record date for the distribution to which this Section 8.3(a) applies) of the assets, securities, rights, warrants or options to be distributed in respect of each Share in the distribution to which this Section 8.3(a) is being applied.

(b) The Investment Bank shall determine fair market values for the purposes of this Section 8.3. The adjustment shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive the distribution to which this Section 8.3 applies.

(c) In respect of a distribution of Shares of any class or series, or Capital Stock or similar equity interests, of or relating to a subsidiary of the Company or other business unit, referred to herein as a “spin-off,” for purposes of the adjustment in Section 8.3(a) above, “F” shall be equal to the average of the closing price of the portion of those shares of Capital Stock or similar equity interests so distributed applicable to one Share for the ten (10) consecutive Trading Days beginning on the effective day of the spin-off or, if such shares of Capital Stock or similar equity interests are not listed on any national or regional securities exchange or quoted in the over-the-counter market, the fair value thereof shall be determined by the Investment Bank. The adjustment to the Exercise Price in the event of a spin-off will occur on the tenth Trading Day from, and including, the effective date of the spin-off.

8.4 Adjustment for Cash Distributions. In case the Company shall pay an annual cash distribution per Share, excluding any distribution in connection with the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, then, in such case, the Exercise Price shall be decreased by the amount of the cash distribution per Share payable to the holder of one Share, such adjustment to be effective immediately prior to the opening of business on the day following such record date. If any such distribution is not so paid, the Exercise Price shall again be adjusted to be the Exercise Price that would then be in effect if such distribution had not been declared.

8.5 Certain Repurchases of Shares.

(a) In case the Company effects a Pro Rata Repurchase in which the cash and value of any other consideration included in the payment per Share exceeds the Market Price on the Trading Day next succeeding the last date on which tenders or exchanges may be made pursuant to such Pro Rata Repurchase, then the Exercise Price shall be reduced to the price determined by multiplying the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date of such Pro Rata Repurchase by a fraction of which (i) the numerator shall be (A) the product of (1) the number of Shares outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase and (2) the Market Price of a Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase, minus (B) the aggregate purchase price of the Pro Rata Repurchase, and of which (ii) the denominator shall be the product of (A) the number of Shares outstanding immediately before such Pro Rata Repurchase minus the number of Shares so repurchased and (B) the Market Price of a Share on the Trading Day immediately preceding the first public announcement by the Company or any of its Affiliates of the intent to effect such Pro Rata Repurchase.

(b) In such event, the number of Warrant Shares for which any Warrant is exercisable shall be increased to the number obtained by dividing (i) the product of (A) the number of Warrant Shares before such adjustment, and (B) the Exercise Price in effect immediately prior to the Pro Rata Repurchase giving rise to this adjustment by (ii) the new Exercise Price determined in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(c) For the avoidance of doubt, no increase to the Exercise Price or decrease in the number of Warrant Shares shall be made pursuant to this Section 8.5.

8.6 Other Provisions Applicable to Adjustments Under this Section 8. The following provisions shall be applicable to the making of adjustments of the Exercise Price and number of Warrant Shares hereinbefore provided for in this Section 8, irrespective of the accounting treatment of any consideration described below:

(a) When Adjustments to be Made. The adjustments required by this Section 8 shall be made whenever and as often as any specified event requiring an adjustment shall occur. For the purpose of any adjustment, any specified event shall be deemed to have occurred at the close of business on the date of its occurrence.

(b) When Adjustments May Be Deferred. No adjustment in the Exercise Price needs to be made if the amount of such adjustment would be less than $0.01. Any adjustments that are not made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment and all adjustments that are made and carried forward shall be taken in the aggregate in order to determine if the $0.01 threshold is met. In computing adjustments under this Section 8, fractional interests in Shares shall be taken into account to the nearest one-hundredth of a Share.

(c) When Adjustment Not Required. If the Company shall take a record of the holders of Shares for the purpose of entitling them to receive a distribution or subscription or purchase rights and shall, thereafter and before the distribution thereof to the holders of Shares, legally abandon its plan to pay or deliver such dividend, distribution, subscription or purchase rights, then no adjustment shall be required by reason of the taking of such record and any such adjustment previously made in respect thereof shall be rescinded and annulled, and no adjustment to the Exercise Price or number of Warrant Shares under this Section 8 shall be made in respect of the Warrants held by the Holder.

(d) Limitation on Number of Warrant Shares. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares shall be made pursuant to this Section 8 which, under the Company’s organizational documents, Virginia law, the rules of the NYSE or otherwise, would have the effect of requiring the Company to seek approval from its shareholders (assuming that all of the Warrants outstanding under this Agreement were exercised for Warrant Shares).

SECTION 9. Consolidation and Merger.

9.1 Consolidation and Merger. In the event that any transaction, whether by way of consolidation, merger, transfer or sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or other transaction that has substantially the same effect, shall be effected with another Person after the date hereof and the Company shall not be the surviving entity, or the Company shall be the surviving entity but its Shares shall be changed into securities or other property of another Person which is not an Affiliate of the Company immediately prior to such transaction (each such transaction, a “Change of Control”), then, as a condition of such Change of Control, lawful and adequate provision shall be made whereby the Holder shall thereafter have the right to purchase and receive,

upon the exercise of its Warrants, on the basis and the terms and conditions specified herein (and in lieu of each Warrant Share immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants), such securities, cash or other property receivable upon such Change of Control as such Holder would have been entitled to receive if its Warrants had been exercised immediately prior to such event in accordance with Section 9.3. The Company shall not effect any such Change of Control unless prior to or simultaneously with the consummation thereof the successor Person (if other than the Company) resulting from such Change of Control shall assume, by written instrument, the obligation to deliver to such Holder such securities, cash or other property as, in accordance with the foregoing provisions, such Holder may be entitled to upon the exercise of its Warrants. The above provisions of this Section 9.1 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations, mergers or other transactions that have substantially the same effect as a Change of Control.

9.2 Dilution in Case of Other Securities. In the event that all the Shares of the Company are or will be converted or exchanged for Other Securities in a transaction which does not qualify as a Change of Control pursuant to Section 9.1, then upon such conversion or exchange, the Warrant shall become exercisable for such Other Securities, and the computations, adjustments and readjustments provided for in Section 8 with respect to the Exercise Price and Warrant Shares shall be made as nearly as possible in the manner so provided and applied to determine the Exercise Price and amount of Other Securities from time to time receivable upon the exercise of the Warrants. In any such case, appropriate and equitable provision shall be made with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder to the end that the provisions hereof (including Section 8 hereof) shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as may be, in relation to any securities, cash or other property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of any Warrants (such that, for greater clarity, the provisions of Section 8 shall read as if references therein to Shares referred to the Other Securities or other equity interests issuable on the exercise of the Warrants, mutatis mutandis).

9.3 Alternative Settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if there shall occur a Change of Control for cash consideration then the Company shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Holder, concurrent with the completion of the transaction, the amount of the Warrants (calculated in the same manner as a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, provided that the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the value of the consideration being delivered in exchange for the Shares in the Change of Control), and the Warrants shall thereafter not be exercisable and (ii) if there shall occur a Change of Control for consideration that includes cash and non-cash consideration, then the Company shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Holder, concurrent with the completion of the transaction and in the same allocation of cash and non-cash consideration as is paid to holders of Shares, such consideration for that number of Shares that the Warrants (calculated in the same manner as a cashless exercise pursuant to Section 7.7 hereof, provided that the Current Market Price shall be deemed to be the volume weighted average price of the Shares for the 30-day period prior to the date of the completion of the transaction), with the value of any fractional Shares to be paid in cash, and the Warrants shall thereafter not be exercisable.

SECTION 10. Notice of Adjustments. Whenever the Warrants or Exercise Price shall be adjusted pursuant to Section 8 or Section 9.2, the Company shall forthwith provide a certificate signed by an Officer, setting forth, in reasonable detail, the event requiring the adjustment and the method by which such adjustment was calculated and describing the number and kind of any other securities issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and any change in the Exercise Price after giving effect to such adjustment or change.

The Company shall promptly, and in any case within 10 Business Days after the making of such adjustment, cause a signed copy of such certificate to be delivered to the Holder in accordance with Section 17.1. The Company shall keep at its principal executive offices referred to in Section 17.1 copies of all such certificates and cause the same to be available for inspection at said office during normal business hours by the Holder.

SECTION 11. Payment of Taxes; Adjustments Resulting in Taxes. No service charge shall be made to any Holder for any exercise, exchange or registration of transfer of Warrant Certificates, and the Company will pay all documentary or stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Warrant Shares or upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Warrant Shares in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of a Warrant. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent that any adjustments to the Warrants or the Exercise Price, whether pursuant to Section 3(a), Section 8, Section 9.2 or otherwise, would cause the Holder to incur a tax liability, the Holder shall have 15 Business Days after receipt of the signed certificate pursuant to Section 10 to notify the Company in writing that the Holder does not accept such adjustment to the Warrants or the Exercise Price so adjusted in whole or in part, in which case such adjustments shall not be made. The Company shall be required to withhold and deduct any taxes required to be withheld and deducted under applicable law in connection with an adjustment to the Warrants or the Exercise Price hereunder, or upon the exercise or settlement of the Warrants.

SECTION 12. Mutilated or Missing Warrant Certificates. If any of the Warrant Certificates shall be mutilated, lost, stolen or destroyed, the Company shall issue, in exchange and substitution for and upon cancellation of the mutilated Warrant Certificate, or in lieu of and substitution for the Warrant Certificate lost, stolen or destroyed, a new Warrant Certificate of like date and tenor and representing an equivalent number of Warrants, but only upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of such loss, theft or destruction of such Warrant Certificate and such indemnity and security therefor as is customary and reasonably satisfactory to the Company, if requested. Applicants for such substitute Warrant Certificate shall also comply with such other reasonable regulations and pay such other reasonable charges as the Company may prescribe.

SECTION 13. Covenants with Respect to Shares.

(a) Delivery of Shares. The Company agrees to take all actions and do all things as are necessary or desirable to enable and permit it to deliver the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of Warrants. The Company guarantees to the Holder the performance of the Company’s obligations to deliver the Warrant Shares in accordance with this Agreement.

(b) Reservation of Shares. The Company will, commencing on the date hereof and at all times subsequent thereto until the sooner of the expiration of the Exercise Period or the exercise of all of the Warrants by the Holders thereof, reserve and keep available, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Shares or its authorized and issued Shares held in treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to provide Shares (directly or indirectly) such that the Company may satisfy any obligation to deliver Warrant Shares upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of Shares which may then be deliverable upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

(c) Stock Exchange Listing. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of the Shares on the NYSE for a period of at least the Exercise Period for each Warrant unless the Company undergoes a Change of Control.

SECTION 14. Notices of Certain Corporate Actions.

(a) In case:

(i) the Company proposes to take any action that would require an adjustment to the Exercise Price or the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of the Warrants pursuant to Section 8 or Section 9.2;

(ii) of a Change of Control; or

(iii) of the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company;

then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Holder at its address as set forth in the Warrant Register, at least 20 Business Days prior to the applicable record date hereinafter specified, or promptly in the case of events for which there is no record date, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, a written notice stating (A)(1) if applicable, the date as of which the Holders to be entitled to receive any such rights, options, warrants or distribution are to be determined or (2) if applicable, the initial expiration date set forth in any tender offer or exchange offer for Shares or (3) if applicable, the date on which any such Change of Control, dissolution, liquidation or winding up is expected to become effective or consummated, and the date as of which it is expected that Holders shall be entitled to exchange such Shares for securities or other property, if any, deliverable upon such Change of Control, dissolution, liquidation or winding up and (B) the facts with respect thereto as shall reasonably be necessary to indicate the effect on the Exercise Price and the number, kind or class of shares or other securities or property which shall be deliverable upon exercise of any Warrants. The failure to give the notice required by this Section 14(a) or any defect therein shall not affect the legality or validity of any distribution, right, option, warrant, Change of Control, dissolution, liquidation or winding up, or the vote upon any action.

(b) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as conferring upon the Holder the right to vote or consent to or receive notice as a shareholder in respect of the meetings of shareholders or the right to receive distributions or the right to receive the net assets of the Company upon the winding-up or termination of the Company or any other matter, or any rights whatsoever as shareholders of the Company.

SECTION 15. Expenses. All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement will be borne by the Company, including: (a) all expenses of printing Warrant Certificates; (b) messenger and delivery services and telephone calls; (c) all fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company; (d) all fees and disbursements of independent certified public accountants or knowledgeable experts selected by the Company; and (e) the Company’s internal expenses (including all salaries and expenses of their officers and employees performing legal or accounting duties).

(f) The Warrant Shares have been duly and validly authorized for issuance and, when issued and delivered in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Warrants, will be duly and validly issued, fully paid and non-asssessable, free and clear of any liens, claims, adverse interests or other encumbrances and will conform to the existing Shares.

(g) Assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties made by the Holder, no consent, approval, authorization, finding of suitability, registration, exemption or permit or (other than informational filings or notices) any filing with or notice to any Governmental Authority or any third party that is a party to any of the documents, to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party, is required in connection with, or as a condition to, the execution, delivery or performance by the parties of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Consistent with the preceding sentence, the parties hereto hereby (a) submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of any federal or state court sitting in City of New York, Borough of Manhattan, for the purpose of any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement brought by any party hereto and (b) irrevocably waive, and agree not to assert by way of motion, defense, or otherwise, in any such Action, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that the Action is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the Action is improper, or that this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement may not be enforced in or by any of the above-named courts.

17.8 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any Law, or public policy, all other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement is not affected in any manner materially adverse to either party hereto.

[Reverse of Warrant Certificate]

MEDIA GENERAL, INC.

By accepting a Warrant Certificate, the Holder shall be bound by all of the terms and provisions of the Warrant Agreement (a copy of which is available on request to the Secretary of the Company) and any amendments thereto as fully and effectively as if such Holder had signed the same.

The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants by the Company expiring on the Expiration Date, entitling the Holder upon proper exercise to receive Warrant Shares pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument and is hereby referred to for a description of the rights, limitation of rights, obligations, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company and each Holder of the Warrants. Capitalized terms used but not other otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Warrant Agreement.

The Holder of the Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate may exercise them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to purchase set forth below on this Warrant Certificate, properly completed and executed, together with payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of cashless exercise pursuant to Section 7.7 of the Warrant Agreement) in accordance with the provisions set forth on the face of this Warrant Certificate and in the Warrant Agreement. In the event that upon any exercise of Warrants evidenced hereby the number of Warrants exercised shall be less than the total number of Warrants evidenced hereby, there shall be issued to the Holder hereof or his assignee a new Warrant Certificate evidencing the number of Warrants not exercised.

The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events the Exercise Price and the number of Warrant Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, each as set forth on the face hereof, may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. No fractions of a Warrant Share will be issued upon the exercise of any Warrant, but the Company will pay the cash value in lieu thereof determined as provided in the Warrant Agreement.

Warrant Certificates, when surrendered to the Company by the Holder thereof in person or by legal representative or attorney duly authorized in writing, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate to the Company, a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge.

The Company may deem and treat the Holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the Holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 2. Demand Registration.

(a) Right to Request Registration. Subject to the provisions hereof, until the Termination Date, the Investor may at any time request registration for resale under the Securities Act of all or part of the Registrable Shares separate from an S-3 Shelf Registration (a “Demand Registration”); provided, however, that (based on the then-current market prices) the number of Registrable Shares included in the Demand Registration would, if fully sold, yield gross proceeds to the Investor of at least the Minimum Amount. Subject to Section 2(d) and Sections 5 and 7 below, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts (i) to file a Registration Statement registering for resale such number of Registrable Shares as requested to be so registered pursuant to this Section 2(a) (a “Demand Registration Statement”) within 90 days after the Investor’s request therefor and (ii) if necessary, to cause such Demand Registration Statement to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as practical thereafter. If permitted under the Securities Act, such Registration Statement shall be one that is automatically effective upon filing.

(b) Number of Demand Registrations. Subject to the limitations of Sections 2(a), 2(d) and 4(a), throughout the term of this Agreement the Investor shall be entitled to request a maximum of one Demand Registration or S-3 Shelf Registration (regardless of the number of Permitted Transferees who may become an Investor pursuant to Section 11). A Registration Statement shall not count as a permitted Demand Registration unless and until it has become effective.

(c) Priority on Demand Registrations. The Company may include Shares other than the Investor’s Registrable Shares in a Demand Registration for any accounts (including for the account of the Company) on the terms provided below; and if such Demand Registration is an underwritten offering, such Shares may be included only with the consent of the managing underwriters of such offering. If the managing underwriters of the requested Demand Registration advise the Company and the Investor requesting such Demand Registration that in their opinion the number of Shares proposed to be included in the Demand Registration exceeds the number of Shares which can be sold in such underwritten offering without materially delaying or jeopardizing the success of the offering (including the price per share of the Shares proposed to be sold in such underwritten offering), the Company shall include in such Demand Registration (i) first, the number of Registrable Shares that the Investor proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the number of Shares proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including Shares to be sold for the account of the Company) allocated among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine. If the number of Shares which can be sold is less than the number of Shares proposed to be registered pursuant to clause (i) above by the Investor, the amount of Shares to be sold shall be allocated to the Investor.

(d) Restrictions on Demand Registrations. The Investor shall not be entitled to request a Demand Registration at any time when the Company is diligently pursuing a primary or secondary underwritten offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to proceed with a Demand Registration if the offering to be effected pursuant to such registration can be effected pursuant to an S-3 Shelf Registration and the Company, in accordance with Section 4, effects or has effected an S-3 Shelf Registration pursuant to which such offering can be effected.

(e) Underwritten Offerings. The Investor shall be entitled to request an underwritten offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, but only if the number of Registrable Shares to be sold in the offering would reasonably be expected to yield gross proceeds to the Investor of at least the Minimum Amount (based on then-current market prices). If any of the Registrable Shares covered by a Demand Registration are to be sold in an underwritten offering, the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to lead the offering.

(f) Effective Period of Demand Registrations. Upon the date of effectiveness of any Demand Registration for an underwritten offering and if such offering is priced promptly on or after such date, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to keep such Demand Registration Statement effective for a period equal to 60 days from such date or such shorter period which shall terminate when all of the Registrable Shares covered by such Demand Registration have been sold by the Investor. If the Company shall withdraw any Demand Registration pursuant to Section 5 before such 60 days end and before all of the Registrable Shares covered by such Demand Registration have been sold pursuant thereto, the Investor shall be entitled to a replacement Demand Registration which shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement. A Demand Registration shall not count against the limit on the number of such registrations set forth in Section 2(b) if (i) after the applicable Registration Statement has become effective, such Registration Statement or the related offer, sale or distribution of Registrable Shares thereunder becomes the subject of any stop order, injunction or other order or restriction imposed by the SEC or any other governmental agency or court for any reason not attributable to the Investor or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its controlled Affiliates) and such interference is not thereafter eliminated so as to permit the completion of the contemplated distribution of Registrable Shares or (ii) in the case of an underwritten offering, the conditions specified in the related underwriting agreement, if any, are not satisfied or waived for any reason not attributable to the Investor or its Affiliates (other than the Company and its controlled Affiliates), and as a result of any such circumstances described in clause (i) or (ii), less than 75% of the Registrable Shares covered by the Registration Statement are sold by the Investor pursuant to such Registration Statement.

Section 3. Piggyback Registrations.

(a) Right to Piggyback. Whenever prior to the occurrence of a Minimum Investor Holding Event the Company proposes to register any Shares under the Securities Act (other than on a registration statement on Form ▇-▇, ▇-▇, ▇-▇ or F-4), whether for its own account or for the account of one or more holders of Shares (other than the Investor), and the form of registration statement to be used may be used for any registration of Registrable Shares (a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give written notice to the Investor of its intention to effect such a registration and, subject to Sections 3(b) and 3(c), shall include in such registration statement and in any offering of Shares to be made pursuant to that registration statement all Registrable Shares with respect to which the Company has received a written request for inclusion therein from the Investor within 10 days after the Investor’s receipt of the Company’s notice or, in the case of a primary offering, such shorter time as is reasonably specified by the Company in light of the circumstances. The Company shall have no obligation to proceed with any Piggyback Registration and may abandon, terminate and/or withdraw such registration for any reason at any time prior to the pricing thereof. If the Company or any other Person other than the Investor proposes to sell Shares in an underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act, such offering shall be treated as a primary or secondary underwritten offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration.

(b) Priority on Primary Piggyback Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as a primary underwritten offering on behalf of the Company and the managing underwriters advise the Company and the Investor (if the Investor has elected to include Registrable Shares in such Piggyback Registration) that in their opinion the number of Shares proposed to be included in such offering exceeds the number of Shares (of any class) which can be sold in such offering without materially delaying or jeopardizing the success of the offering (including the price per share of the Shares proposed to be sold in such offering), the Company shall include in such registration and offering (i) first, the number of Shares that the Company proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the number of Shares requested to be included therein by holders of Shares, including the Investor (if the Investor has elected to include Registrable Shares in such Piggyback Registration), pro rata among all such holders on the basis of the number of Shares requested to be included therein by all such holders or as such holders and the Company may otherwise agree (with allocations among different classes of Shares, if more than one are involved, to be determined by the Company).

(c) Priority on Secondary Piggyback Registrations. If a Piggyback Registration is initiated as an underwritten registration on behalf of a holder of Shares other than the Investor, and the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their opinion the number of Shares proposed to be included in such registration exceeds the number of Shares which can be sold in such offering without materially delaying or jeopardizing the success of the offering (including the price per share of the Shares to be sold in such offering), then the Company shall include in such registration (i) first, the number of Shares requested to be included therein by the holder(s) requesting such registration, (ii) second, the number of Shares requested to be included therein by other holders of Shares including the Investor (if the Investor has elected to include Registrable Shares in such Piggyback Registration) and (iii) third, the number of Shares that the Company proposes to sell, pro rata among such holders on the basis of the number of Shares requested to be included therein by such holders or as such holders and the Company may otherwise agree (with allocations among different classes of Shares, if more than one are involved, to be determined by the Company).

(d) Selection of Underwriters. If any Piggyback Registration is a primary or secondary underwritten offering, the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to administer any such offering.

(e) Basis of Participations. The Investor may not sell Registrable Shares in any offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration unless it (a) agrees to sell such Shares on the same basis provided in the underwriting or other distribution arrangements approved by the Company and that apply to the Company and/or any other holders involved in such Piggyback Registration and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lockups and other documents required under the terms of such arrangements.

Section 4. S-3 Shelf Registration.

(a) Right to Request Registration. Subject to the provisions hereof, at any time when the Company is eligible to use Form S-3 prior to the Termination Date and if the Investor has not previously requested a Demand Registration which has resulted in an effective Demand Registration Statement, the Investor shall be entitled to request on one occasion that the Company file a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (or an amendment or supplement to an existing registration statement on Form S-3) for a public offering of all or such portion of the Registrable Shares designated by the Investor pursuant to Rule 415 promulgated under the Securities Act or otherwise (an “S-3 Shelf Registration”). A request for an S-3 Shelf Registration may not be made at any time when the Company is diligently pursuing a primary or secondary underwritten offering pursuant to a registration statement. Upon such request, and subject to Section 5, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts (i) to file a Registration Statement (or any amendment or supplement thereto) covering the number of shares of Registrable Shares specified in such request under the Securities Act on Form S-3 (an “S-3 Shelf Registration Statement”) for public sale in accordance with the method of disposition specified in such request within 10 business days (in the case of a Registration Statement that is automatically effective upon filing if the company is eligible to make such a filing under the Securities Act) or 45 days (in the case of all other Registration Statements) after the Investor’s written request therefor and (ii) if necessary, to cause such S-3 Shelf Registration Statement to become effective as soon as practical thereafter. If permitted under the Securities Act, such Registration Statement shall be one that is automatically effective upon filing. The right to request an S-3 Shelf Registration may be exercised no more than once in the aggregate and, pursuant to Section 2(b) may not be exercised after a Demand Registration, regardless of the number of Permitted Transferees who may become an Investor pursuant to Section 11.

(b) Right to Effect Shelf Takedowns. The Investor shall be entitled, at any time and from time to time when an S-3 Shelf Registration Statement is effective and until the Termination Date, to sell such Registrable Shares as are then registered pursuant to such Registration Statement (each, a “Shelf Takedown”), but only upon not less than 10 business days’ prior written notice to the Company (if such takedown is to be underwritten). The Investor shall be entitled to request that a Shelf Takedown shall be an underwritten offering; provided, however, that (based on the then-current market prices) the number of Registrable Shares included in each such underwritten Shelf Takedown would reasonably be expected to yield gross proceeds to the Investor of at least the Minimum Amount, and provided further that the Investor shall not be entitled to request any underwritten Shelf Takedown at any time when the Company is diligently pursuing a primary or secondary underwritten offering of Shares pursuant to a registration statement. The Investor shall give the Company prompt written notice of the consummation of each Shelf Takedown (whether or not underwritten).

(c) Priority on Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. The Company may include Shares other than Registrable Shares in an underwritten Shelf Takedown for any accounts on the terms provided below, but only with the consent of the managing underwriters of such offering and the Investor (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld). If the managing underwriters of the requested underwritten Shelf Takedown advise the Company and the Investor that in their opinion the number of Shares proposed to be included in the underwritten Shelf Takedown exceeds the number of Shares which can be sold in such offering without materially delaying or jeopardizing the success of the offering (including the price per share of the Shares proposed to be sold in such offering), the Company shall include in such underwritten Shelf Takedown (i) first, the number of Shares that the Investor proposes to sell, and (ii) second, the number of Shares proposed to be included therein by any other Persons (including Shares to be sold for the account of the Company) allocated among such Persons in such manner as the Company may determine. If the number of Shares which can be sold is less than the number of Registrable Shares proposed to be included in the underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to clause (i) above, the amount of Shares to be so sold shall be allocated to the Investor. The provisions of this paragraph (c) apply only to a Shelf Takedown that the Investor has requested be an underwritten offering.

(d) Selection of Underwriters. If any of the Registrable Shares are to be sold in an underwritten Shelf Takedown initiated by the Investor, the Company shall have the right to select the managing underwriter or underwriters to lead the offering.

(e) Effective Period of S-3 Shelf Registrations. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to keep any S-3 Shelf Registration Statement effective for a period of 90 days after the effective date of such registration statement, provided that such 90 day period shall be extended by the number of days in any Suspension Period commenced pursuant to Section 5 during such period (as it may be so extended) and by the number of days in any Third Party Holdback Period commenced during such period (as it may be so extended). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be obligated to keep any such registration statement effective, or to permit Registrable Shares to be registered, offered or sold thereunder, at any time on or after the Termination Date.

Section 5. Suspension Periods.

(a) Suspension Periods. The Company may (i) delay the filing or effectiveness of a Registration Statement in conjunction with a Demand Registration or an S-3 Shelf Registration or (ii) prior to the pricing of any underwritten offering or other offering of Registrable Shares pursuant to a Demand Registration or an S-3 Shelf Registration, delay such underwritten or other offering (and, if it so chooses, withdraw any registration statement that has been filed), but in each case described in clauses (i) and (ii) only if the Company determines in its sole discretion (x) that proceeding with such an offering would require the Company to disclose material information that would not otherwise be required to be disclosed at that time and that the disclosure of such information at that time would not be in the Company’s best interests, or (y) that the registration or offering to be delayed would, if not delayed, materially adversely affect the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole or materially interfere with, or jeopardize the success of, any pending or proposed material transaction, including any debt or equity financing, any acquisition or disposition, any recapitalization or reorganization or any other material transaction, whether due to commercial reasons, a desire to avoid premature disclosure of information or any other reason. Any period during which the Company has delayed a filing, an effective date or an offering pursuant to this Section 5 is herein called a “Suspension Period”. If pursuant to this Section 5 the Company delays or withdraws a Demand Registration or S-3 Shelf Registration requested by the Investor, the Investor shall be entitled to withdraw such request and, if it does so, such request shall not count against the limitation on the number of such registrations set forth in Section 2 or Section 4. The Company shall provide prompt written notice to the Investor of the commencement and termination of any Suspension Period (and any withdrawal of a registration statement pursuant to this Section 5), but shall not be obligated under this Agreement to disclose the reasons therefor. The Investor shall keep the existence of each Suspension Period confidential and refrain from making offers and sales of Registrable Shares (and direct any other Persons making such offers and sales to refrain from doing so) during each Suspension Period. In no event (i) may the Company deliver notice of a Suspension Period to the Investor more than three times in any calendar year and (ii) shall a Suspension Period or Suspension Periods be in effect for an aggregate of 180 days or more in any calendar year.

(b) Other Lockups. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to take any action hereunder that would violate any lockup or similar restriction binding on the Company in connection with a prior or pending registration or underwritten offering.

(c) Purchase Agreement Restrictions. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect the restrictions on transfers of Shares and other provisions of the Purchase Agreement, which shall apply independently hereof in accordance with the terms thereof.

Section 6. Holdback Agreements.

The restrictions in this Section 6 shall apply for as long as the Investor is the beneficial owner of any Registrable Shares. If the Company sells Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for (or otherwise representing a right to acquire) Shares in a primary underwritten offering pursuant to any registration statement under the Securities Act (but only if the Investor is provided its piggyback rights, if any, in accordance with Sections 3(a) and 3(b)), or if any other Person sells Shares in a secondary underwritten offering pursuant to a Piggyback Registration in accordance with Sections 3(a) and 3(b), and if the managing underwriters for such offering advise the Company (in which case the Company promptly shall notify the Investor) that a public sale or distribution of Shares outside such offering would materially adversely affect such offering, then, if requested by the Company, the Investor shall agree, as contemplated in this Section 6, not to (and to cause its majority-controlled Affiliates not to) sell, transfer, pledge, issue, grant or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly (including by means of any short sale), or request the registration of, any Registrable Shares (or any securities, including the Warrants, of any Person that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or otherwise represent a right to acquire, any Registrable Shares) for a period (each such period, a “Holdback Period”) beginning on the 10th day before the pricing date for the underwritten offering and extending through the earlier of (i) the 90th day after such pricing date (subject to customary automatic extension in the event of the release of earnings results of or material news relating to the Company) and (ii) such earlier day (if any) as may be designated for this purpose by the managing underwriters for such offering (each such agreement of the Investor, a “Holdback Agreement”). Each Holdback Agreement shall be in writing in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and the managing underwriters. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Investor shall not be obligated to make a Holdback Agreement unless the Company and each selling shareholder in such offering also execute agreements substantially similar to such Holdback Agreement. A Holdback Agreement shall not apply to (i) the exercise of any warrants or options to purchase shares of the Company (provided that such restrictions shall apply with respect to the securities issuable upon such exercise) or (ii) any Shares included in the underwritten offering giving rise to the application of this Section 6.

Section 7. Registration Procedures.

(a) Whenever the Investor requests that any Registrable Shares be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to effect, as soon as practical as provided herein, the registration and the sale of such Registrable Shares in accordance with the intended methods of disposition thereof, and, pursuant thereto, the Company shall, as soon as practical as provided herein:

(i) subject to the other provisions of this Agreement, use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC a Registration Statement with respect to such Registrable Shares and cause such Registration Statement to become effective (unless it is automatically effective upon filing);

(ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to such Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and to keep such Registration Statement effective for the relevant period required hereunder, but no longer than is necessary to complete the distribution of the Shares covered by such Registration Statement, and to comply with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all the Shares covered by such Registration Statement during such period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition set forth in such Registration Statement;

(iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any Registration Statement, or the lifting of any suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of any Registrable Shares for sale in any jurisdiction in the United States;

(iv) deliver, without charge, such number of copies of the preliminary and final Prospectus and any supplement thereto as the Investor may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Shares of the Investor covered by such Registration Statement in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act;

(v) use commercially reasonable efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Shares under such other securities or blue sky laws of such U.S. jurisdictions as the Investor reasonably requests and continue such registration or qualification in effect in such jurisdictions for as long as the applicable Registration Statement may be required to be kept effective under this Agreement (provided that the Company will not be required to (I) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subparagraph (v), (II) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction or (III) consent to general service of process in any such jurisdiction);

(vi) notify the Investor and each distributor of such Registrable Shares identified by the Investor, at any time when a Prospectus relating thereto would be required under the Securities Act to be delivered by such distributor, of the occurrence of any event as a result of which the Prospectus included in such Registration Statement contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omits a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and, at the request of the Investor, the Company shall use commercially reasonable efforts to prepare, as soon as practical, a supplement or amendment to such Prospectus so that, as thereafter delivered to any prospective purchasers of such Registrable Shares, such Prospectus shall not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;

(vii) in the case of an underwritten offering in which the Investor participates pursuant to a Demand Registration, a Piggyback Registration or an S-3 Shelf Registration, enter into a customary underwriting agreement on market terms and take all such other customary and reasonable actions as the managing underwriters of such offering may request in order to facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Shares (including, making members of senior management of the Company available at reasonable times and places to participate in “road-shows” that the managing underwriter determines are necessary to effect the offering);

(viii) in the case of an underwritten offering in which the Investor participates pursuant to a Demand Registration, a Piggyback Registration or an S-3 Shelf Registration, and to the extent not prohibited by applicable law, (A) make reasonably available, for inspection by the managing underwriters of such offering and one attorney and accountant acting for such managing underwriters, pertinent corporate documents and financial and other records of the Company and its subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates, (B) cause the Company’s officers and employees to supply information reasonably requested by such managing underwriters or attorney in connection with such offering, (C) make the Company’s independent accountants available for any such managing underwriters’ due diligence and have them provide customary comfort letters to such underwriters in connection therewith; and (D) cause the Company’s counsel to furnish customary legal opinions to such underwriters in connection therewith; provided, however, that such records and other information shall be subject to such confidential treatment as is customary for underwriters’ due diligence reviews;

(ix) use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Shares to be listed on each primary securities exchange (if any) on which securities of the same class issued by the Company are then listed;

(x) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Shares not later than the effective date of such Registration Statement and, a reasonable time before any proposed sale of Registrable Shares pursuant to a Registration Statement, provide the transfer agent with printed certificates for the Registrable Shares to be sold, subject to the provisions of Section 11; and

(xi) promptly notify the Investor and the managing underwriters of any underwritten offering, if any:

(1) when the Registration Statement, any pre-effective amendment, the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or any post-effective amendment to the Registration Statement has been filed and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective;

(2) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Registration Statement or the Prospectus or for any additional information regarding the Investor;

(3) of the notification to the Company by the SEC of its initiation of any proceeding with respect to the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement; and

(4) of the receipt by the Company of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of any Registrable Shares for sale under the applicable securities or blue sky laws of any jurisdiction.

For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of clauses (vii), (viii) and (xi) of this Section 7(a) shall apply only in respect of an underwritten offering and only if (based on market prices at the time the offering is requested by the Investor) the number of Registrable Shares to be sold in the offering would reasonably be expected to yield gross proceeds to the Investor of at least the Minimum Amount.

(b) No Registration Statement (including any amendments thereto) shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein, or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and no Prospectus (including any supplements thereto) shall contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in each case, except for any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact made in reliance on and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor or any other selling shareholder, underwriter or other distributor specifically for use therein.

(c) At all times after the Company has filed a registration statement with the SEC pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act and until the Termination Date, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to continuously maintain in effect the registration statement of its common stock under Section 12 of the Exchange Act and to use commercially reasonable efforts to file all reports required to be filed by it under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC thereunder, all to the extent required to enable the Investor to be eligible to sell Registrable Shares (if any) pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

(d) The Company may require the Investor and each other selling shareholder and other distributor of Registrable Shares as to which any registration is being effected to furnish to the Company information regarding such Person and the distribution of such securities as the Company may from time to time reasonably request in connection with such registration.

(e) The Investor agrees by having its Shares treated as Registrable Shares hereunder that, upon being advised in writing by the Company of the occurrence of an event pursuant to Section 7(a)(vi), the Investor will immediately discontinue (and direct any other Persons making offers and sales of Registrable Shares to immediately discontinue) offers and sales of Registrable Shares pursuant to any Registration Statement (other than those pursuant to a plan that is in effect prior to such time and that complies with Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act) until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed and is furnished with a supplemented or amended Prospectus as contemplated by Section 7(a)(vi), and, if so directed by the Company, the Investor will deliver to the Company all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Investor’s possession, of the Prospectus covering such Registrable Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice.

(f) The Company may prepare and deliver an issuer free-writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) in lieu of any supplement to a prospectus, and references herein to any “supplement” to a Prospectus shall include any such issuer free-writing prospectus. Neither the Investor nor any other seller of Registrable Shares may use a free-writing prospectus to offer or sell any such shares without the Company’s prior written consent.

(g) It is understood and agreed that any failure of the Company to file a registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto or to cause any such document to become or remain effective or usable within or for any particular period of time as provided in Section 2, 4 or 7 or otherwise in this Agreement, due to reasons that are not reasonably within its control, or due to any refusal of the SEC to permit a registration statement or prospectus to become or remain effective or to be used because of unresolved SEC comments thereon (or on any documents incorporated therein by reference) despite the Company’s good faith and reasonable best efforts to resolve those comments, shall not be a breach of this Agreement.

(h) It is further understood and agreed that the Company shall not have any obligations under this Section 7 at any time on or after the Termination Date, unless an underwritten offering in which the Investor participates has been priced but not completed prior to the Termination Date, in which event the Company’s obligations under this Section 7 shall continue with respect to such offering until it is so completed (but not more than 60 days after the commencement of the offering).

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall not be required to file a Registration Statement or include Registrable Shares in a Registration Statement unless it has received from the Investor, at least five days prior to the anticipated filing date of the Registration Statement, requested information required to be provided by the Investor for inclusion therein.

Section 8. Registration Expenses.

(a) All expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with this Agreement, including all registration and filing fees, fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws, FINRA fees, listing application fees, printing expenses, transfer agent’s and registrar’s fees, cost of distributing Prospectuses in preliminary and final form as well as any supplements thereto, and fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company and all independent certified public accountants and other Persons retained by the Company (all such expenses being herein called “Registration Expenses”) (but not including any underwriting discounts or commissions attributable to the sale of Registrable Shares or fees and expenses of counsel and any other advisor representing any underwriters or other distributors), shall be borne by the Company. The Investor shall bear the cost of all underwriting discounts and commissions associated with any sale of Registrable Shares and shall pay all of its own costs and expenses, including all fees and expenses of any counsel (and any other advisers) representing the Investor and any stock transfer taxes.

(b) The obligation of the Company to bear the expenses described in Section 8(a) shall apply irrespective of whether a registration, once properly demanded or requested becomes effective or is withdrawn or suspended; provided, however, that Registration Expenses for any Registration Statement withdrawn solely at the request of the Investor (unless withdrawn following commencement of a Suspension Period pursuant to Section 5) for any reason other than an adverse change in the Company or its business (unrelated to any financial market or general economic conditions that do not disproportionately affect the Company) shall be borne by the Investor.

Section 9. Indemnification.

(a) The Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Investor and each Person who controls the Investor (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs (including reasonable costs of investigation) and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are made in reliance and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by the Investor expressly for use therein.

(b) In connection with any Registration Statement in which the Investor is participating, the Investor shall furnish to the Company in writing such information as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus, or amendment or supplement thereto, and shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the Company, its officers and directors and each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, costs (including reasonable costs of investigation) and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement or Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or arising out of or based upon any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that the same are made in reliance and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Company by or on behalf of the Investor expressly for use therein.

Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying Person of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification and (ii) permit such indemnifying Person to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified Person. Failure so to notify the indemnifying Person shall not relieve it from any liability that it may have to an indemnified Person except to the extent that the indemnifying Person is materially and adversely prejudiced thereby. The indemnifying Person shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified Person without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld, provided that any such settlement includes as an unconditional term the giving, by all relevant claimants and plaintiffs to such indemnified Person, a release, satisfactory in form and substance to such indemnifying person, from all liabilities in respect of such claim or action for which such indemnifying person would be required to provide indemnification for). An indemnifying Person who is entitled to, and elects to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (in addition to one local counsel) for all Persons indemnified (hereunder or otherwise) by such indemnifying Person with respect to such claim (and all other claims arising out of the same circumstances), unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified Person there may be one or more legal or equitable defenses available to such indemnified Person which are in addition to or may conflict with those available to another indemnified Person with respect to such claim, in which case such maximum number of counsel for all indemnified Persons shall be two rather than one). If an indemnifying Person is entitled to, and elects to, assume the defense of a claim, the indemnified Person shall continue to be entitled to participate in the defense thereof, with counsel of its own choice, but, except as set forth above, the indemnifying Person shall not be obligated to reimburse the indemnified Person for the costs thereof. The indemnifying Person shall not consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into or agree to any settlement relating to a claim or action for which any indemnified Person would be entitled to indemnification by any indemnified Person hereunder unless such judgment or settlement imposes no ongoing obligations on any such indemnified Person and includes as an unconditional term the giving, by all relevant claimants and plaintiffs to such indemnified Person, a release, satisfactory in form and substance to such indemnified Person, from all liabilities in respect of such claim or action for which such indemnified Person would be entitled to such indemnification. The indemnifying Person shall not be liable hereunder for any amount paid or payable or incurred pursuant to or in connection with any judgment entered or settlement effected with the consent of an indemnified Person unless the indemnifying Person has also consented to such judgment or settlement.

(c) The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified Person or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified Person and shall survive the transfer of securities and the Termination Date but only with respect to offers and sales of Registrable Shares made before the Termination Date or during the period following the Termination Date referred to in Section 7(h).

(d) If the indemnification provided for in or pursuant to this Section 9 is due in accordance with the terms hereof, but is held by a court to be unavailable or unenforceable in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to herein, then each applicable indemnifying Person, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified Person, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified Person as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying Person on the one hand and of the indemnified Person on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which result in such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying Person on the one hand and of the indemnified Person on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the indemnifying Person or by the indemnified Person, and by such Person’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. In no event shall the liability of the indemnifying Person be greater in amount than the amount for which such indemnifying Person would have been obligated to pay by way of indemnification if the indemnification provided for under Section 9(a) or 9(b) hereof had been available under the circumstances.

Section 10. Securities Act Restrictions.

The Registrable Shares are restricted securities under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an effective registration statement or an available exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Investor shall not, directly or through others, offer or sell any Registrable Shares except pursuant to a Registration Statement as contemplated herein or pursuant to Rule 144 or another exemption from registration under the Securities Act, if available. Prior to any transfer of Registrable Shares other than pursuant to an effective registration statement, the Investor shall notify the Company of such transfer and the Company may require the Investor to provide, prior to such transfer, such evidence that the transfer will comply with the Securities Act (including written representations or an opinion of counsel) as the Company may reasonably request. The Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to any Registrable Shares that are to be transferred in contravention of this Agreement. Any certificates representing the Registrable Shares may bear a legend (and the Company’s share registry may bear a notation) referencing the restrictions on transfer contained in this Agreement (and the Purchase Agreement), until such time as such securities have ceased to be (or are to be transferred in a manner that results in their ceasing to be) Registrable Shares. Subject to the provisions of this Section 10, the Company will replace any such legended certificates with unlegended certificates promptly upon surrender of the legended certificates to the Company or its designee and cause shares that cease to be Registrable Shares to bear a general unrestricted CUSIP number, in order to facilitate a lawful transfer or at any time after such shares cease to be Registrable Shares.

Section 11. Transfers of Rights.

(a) If the Investor transfers any rights to a Permitted Transferee in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, such Permitted Transferee shall, together with all other such Permitted Transferees and the Investor, also have the rights of the Investor under this Agreement, but only if the Permitted Transferee signs and delivers to the Company a written acknowledgment (in form and substance satisfactory to the Company) that it has joined with the Investor and the other Permitted Transferees as a party to this Agreement and has assumed the rights and obligations of the Investor hereunder with respect to the rights transferred to it by the Investor. Each such transfer shall be effective when (but only when) the Permitted Transferee has signed and delivered the written acknowledgment to the Company. Upon any such effective transfer, the Permitted Transferee shall automatically have the rights so transferred, and the Investor’s obligations under this Agreement, and the rights not so transferred, shall continue, provided that under no circumstances shall the Company be required to provide more than one Demand Registrations or Shelf Registration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Person who acquires securities transferred in violation of this Agreement or the Purchase Agreement, or who acquires securities that are not or upon acquisition cease to be Registrable Shares, shall have any rights under this Agreement with respect to such securities, and such securities shall not have the benefits afforded hereunder to Registrable Shares.

Section 12. Miscellaneous.

(a) Notices. Any notice, request, instruction or other document to be given hereunder by any party to the other will be in writing and will be deemed to have been duly given (a) on the date of delivery if delivered personally, or by facsimile, upon confirmation of receipt, or (b) on the second business day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next day courier service. All notices hereunder shall be delivered as set forth below, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such notice.

(b) No Waivers. No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law.

(c) Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any right, remedy, obligation nor liability arising hereunder or by reason hereof shall be assignable by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties, and any attempt to assign any right, remedy, obligation or liability hereunder without such consent shall be void, except (i) an assignment, in the case of a merger or consolidation where such party is not the surviving entity, or a sale of substantially all of its assets, to the entity which is the survivor of such merger or consolidation or the purchaser in such sale or (ii) an assignment by Investor to a Permitted Transferee in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d) No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Nothing contained in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any person or entity other than the Company and the Investor (and any Permitted Transferee to which an assignment is made in accordance with this Agreement), any benefits, rights, or remedies (except as specified in Section 9 hereof).

(e) Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial, Etc. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. Each of the parties hereto agrees (a) to submit to the non-exclusive personal jurisdiction of the State or Federal courts in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, (b) that non-exclusive jurisdiction and venue shall lie in the State or Federal courts in the State of New York, and (c) that notice may be served upon such party at the address and in the manner set forth for such party in Section 12(a). To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the parties hereto hereby unconditionally waives trial by jury in any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

(f) Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (including by e-mail or facsimile) and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, with the same effect as if all parties had signed the same document. All such counterparts shall be deemed an original, shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received counterparts hereof signed by all of the other parties hereto.

(g) Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces all other prior agreements, written or oral, among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

(h) Captions. The headings and other captions in this Agreement are for convenience and reference only and shall not be used in interpreting, construing or enforcing any provision of this Agreement.

(i) Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated 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 modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(j) The Company agrees that it shall not grant any registration rights to any third party (i) unless such rights are expressly made subject to the rights of Investor in a manner consistent with this Agreement or (ii) if such registration rights are senior to, or take priority over, the registration rights granted to the Investor under this Agreement.

(k) Amendments. The provisions of this Agreement, including the provisions of this sentence, may not be amended, modified or supplemented, and waivers or consents to departures from the provisions hereof may not be given without the prior written consent of the Company and the Investor.

ARTICLE II.

VOTING AGREEMENT

2.1 Nomination and Election of Investor Nominee.

2.1.1 Shareholder Agreement to Nominate and Elect Investor Nominee. Subject to Section 5.1 hereof, Shareholder hereby agrees that, prior to the occurrence of a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event, it shall exercise such rights as are available to it as a majority shareholder of the Class B Common Stock to nominate the Investor Nominee for election to the Board as a Class B Director at each annual shareholder meeting for the general election of directors and to vote in favor of such election, commencing with the first annual shareholder meeting for the general election of directors following the date hereof.

2.1.2 Company Agreement to Nominate Investor Nominee. Subject to Section 5.1 hereof, the Company hereby agrees that upon the occurrence of a Shareholder Director Default or a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event, it shall (i) cause the Investor Nominee to be nominated for election to the Board as a Class A Director as part of the Company’s slate of nominees at each annual shareholder meeting for the general election of directors and (ii) use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Investor Nominee to be elected to the Board as a Class A Director, in each case commencing with the first annual shareholder meeting for the general election of directors following the occurrence of the Shareholder Director Default or the Minimum Shareholder Holding Event.

2.2 Investor Notice of Investor Nominee. Investor agrees that each year it shall give the Shareholder (prior to the occurrence of a Shareholder Default or a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event) and the Company reasonable prior notice of its choice of Investor Nominee for such year, which in any event shall be no less than 120 days before the Company’s next scheduled annual meeting for the general election of directors, to enable the Shareholder (prior to the occurrence of a Shareholder Default or a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event) and the Company to determine whether such Investor Nominee meets the Director Requirements and to provide sufficient time for the Company to prepare proxy materials. The Investor shall provide and shall cause the Investor Nominee to provide such information as the Shareholder (prior to the occurrence of a Shareholder Default or a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event) and the Company shall reasonably request in order to make a determination that the Investor Nominee meets the Director Requirements and to prepare the proxy materials.

2.3 Nomination Following the Date Hereof. The Investor may, at its option, after the date hereof and prior to the general election of directors immediately following the date hereof, give notice to the Shareholder (prior to the occurrence of a Minimum Shareholder Holding Event) and the Company of its election to seek the appointment of an interim Class B Director to the Board. As soon as practicable following the receipt of such notice and delivery of information meeting the requirements of Section 2.2 by the Investor to the Company and a determination by the Company that such interim nominee meets the Director Requirements, the Company shall cause the appointment to the Board of such interim nominee to the extent permitted by and in compliance with the Articles of Incorporation and By-laws of the Company.

2.4 Compliance with Organizational Documents and NYSE Rules. All actions taken under this Article II shall be taken in compliance with (a) the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and By-laws, including without limitation the restrictions on the size and composition of the Board and the distribution of matters that holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively, are permitted to vote on and (b) the applicable rules of the New York Stock Exchange, including any applicable requirements related to director independence.

2.5 Board Observer. In any year, if for any reason, the Investor Nominee fails to be elected to the Board, Investor shall be entitled to designate a non-voting observer to attend all meetings of the Board. The observer shall have no voice or vote at meetings he or she attends and shall not be counted for purposes of determining quorum or for any other purpose.
