 C. Other than Cause or Death or Disability. The Company may terminate Employee’s employment at any time, with or without
cause, upon 30 days’ written notice. 
  
 D.
Obligations of the Company Upon Termination. 
  
 1. Death or Disability. If Employee’s employment is terminated by reason of Employee’s death, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Employee or his legal representatives under this Agreement (except
as provided in this Section IV-D-1), other than for (a) payment of the sum of (i) Employee’s annual base salary through the date of termination to the extent not theretofore paid and (ii) any accrued vacation pay to the extent not theretofore
paid (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (i) and (ii) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”), which shall be paid to Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30
days of the date of termination; and (b) payment to Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in any amounts due pursuant to the terms of any applicable welfare benefit plans. If Employee’s employment is terminated by reason of the
Employee’s Disability, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Employee or his legal representative under this Agreement (except as provided in the last sentence of this Section IV-D-1), other than for (a) payment of the
sum of the Accrued Obligations which shall be paid to Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the date of termination; (b) payment to Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, any
amounts due pursuant to the terms of any applicable welfare benefit plans, and (c) until the earlier of the end of such disability and December 31, 2005, continued participation in medical, dental, hospitalization and life insurance coverage and in
all other employee plans and programs in which he was participating (and on the same basis that he was participating) on the date of termination of his employment due to disability subject to the terms of such plans and to the extent such coverage
may be available to disabled employees. In addition, in the event of a termination of Employee’s employment with the Company upon his death or Disability, the pro-rated portion of Employee’s Target Bonus for the calendar year in which
termination due to Employee’s death or Disability occurs (calculated based upon the number of days elapsed during such year prior to such termination), shall be payable to Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, promptly after the
end of the calendar year during which such termination occurred. In the event of a termination of the Employee’s employment as a result of death or Disability, Employee or his estate or beneficiary, as applicable, shall, subject to earlier
termination pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Plan, be 
  

 5 








 entitled to exercise any Options which shall have vested as of the date of Employee’s termination
for a period of one year following the date of termination. All unvested or unexercisable options as of such date shall be terminated and forfeited. 
  
 2. Cause. If Employee’s employment is terminated by the Company for Cause, this Agreement shall terminate without further
obligations to Employee other than for the timely payment of Accrued Obligations. If it is subsequently determined that the Company did not have Cause for termination under this Section IV-D-2, then the Company’s decision to terminate shall be
deemed to have been made under Section IV-D-3 and the amounts payable thereunder shall be the only amounts Employee may receive for his termination. In the event that the Company terminates Employee’s employment for Cause, all unvested or
unexercised Options as of the date of termination shall be terminated and forfeited and all previously vested options as of the date of such termination shall be terminated and forfeited. 
  
 3. Other than Cause or Death or Disability. If the
Company terminates Employee’s employment for other than Cause or death or Disability, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Employee (except as provided in this Section IV D-3) other than (a) the timely payment of
Accrued Obligations, (b) payment to Employee of a lump sum equal to the lesser of (1) one year’s then-current base salary and Target Bonus or (ii) an aggregate amount equal to the remaining payments of base salary which Employee would have been
entitled to receive under this Agreement in the event that Employee remained employed hereunder through the end of the Term (including the amounts payable under Section VI hereof) and an amount equal to Employee’s then-current Target Bonus, in
either case, less standard withholdings and other authorized deductions (to the extent applicable), (c) reimbursement to Employee of premiums paid for COBRA continuation of medical insurance until the earlier of (i) Employee becomes eligible for
group medical insurance with another employer or (ii) twelve (12) months, and (d) reimbursement for reasonable moving expenses actually incurred by Employee as a result of relocating Employee and Employee’s family to New York within one year
after any such termination in an amount not to exceed $100,000, inclusive of tax gross up payments. Furthermore, if the Company terminates Employee’s employment for other than Cause, death or Disability, the Options to the extent outstanding
and not previously vested at the time of such termination, shall thereupon vest in full and shall, subject to earlier termination pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Plan, continue to be exercisable for a period of one year after such termination.

Reason. Employee 
  

 6

“Good Reason” shall mean any of the following: (i) the Company requires Employee to relocate his principal office outside of the greater Los Angeles area without Employee’s consent; (ii) the Company assigns Employee to a position
other than Executive Vice President and General Counsel reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer; (iii) the Company substantially diminishes Employee’s duties or responsibilities, or (iv) the Company breaches any material provision of
this Agreement (other than immaterial breaches). Before terminating his employment with Good Reason, Employee shall give the Company written notice of his intent to terminate for Good Reason and the basis therefor, and the Company shall have thirty
(30) days to cure (the “Cure Period”). If the Company fails to cure the Good Reason within the Cure Period, Employee may terminate his employment and this Agreement upon the expiration of such thirty (30) day period. For all purposes under
this Agreement, any such termination by Employee with Good Reason shall be treated as a termination without Cause and Employee shall be entitled to the payments and benefits set forth in Section VI-D-3 above. 
  
 5. Exclusive Remedy. Employee agrees that the
payments contemplated by this Agreement shall constitute the exclusive and sole remedy for any termination of his employment and Employee covenants not to assert or pursue any other remedies, at law or in equity, with respect to any termination of
employment during the Term. 
  

	V.	ARBITRATION

misrepresentation in connection with any of its provisions, or any other controversy arising out of Employee’s employment, including, but not limited to, any state or federal statutory claims, shall be submitted to arbitration in Los Angeles,
California, before a sole arbitrator selected from the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), and shall be conducted in accordance with the AAA rules for the resolution of Employment Disputes as the exclusive forum for the resolution of
such dispute; provided, however, that provisional injunctive relief may, but need not, be sought by either party to this Agreement in a court of law while arbitration proceedings are pending, and any provisional injunctive relief granted by such
court shall remain effective until the matter is finally determined by the Arbitrator. Final resolution of any dispute through arbitration may include any remedy or relief which the Arbitrator deems just and equitable, including any and all remedies
provided by applicable state or federal statutes. At the conclusion of the arbitration, the Arbitrator shall issue a written decision that sets forth the essential findings and conclusions upon which the Arbitrator’s award or decision is based.
