ARTICLE I

VOTING AGREEMENT AND IRREVOCABLE PROXY

 

Section 1.1                        Agreement to Vote.

 

(a)                                 Agreement to Vote the Subject Shares in a Recommended Transaction.  Subject to Sections 1.1(b), 1.1(c), 1.2, 1.3 and 1.4, each Stockholder hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees that, during the Voting Period, at any duly called meeting of the stockholders of the Company (or any adjournment or postponement thereof), and in any action by written consent of the stockholders of the Company, each Stockholder shall, if a meeting is held, appear at the meeting, in person or by proxy, or otherwise cause its Subject Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of establishing a quorum, and shall vote or consent (or cause to be voted or consented), in person or by proxy, its Subject Shares (a) in favor of any Recommended Transaction (and any actions required in furtherance thereof), (b) against any action, proposal, transaction or agreement that would result in a breach in any respect of any covenant, representation or warranty or any other obligation or agreement of the Stockholders contained in this Agreement, (c) in favor of the adoption of a Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction, and (d) against the following actions or proposals (other than the transactions contemplated by the Definitive Agreement):  (i) any proposal in opposition to approval of a Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction or in competition with or materially inconsistent with a Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction; and (ii) any other action or proposal involving the Company or any subsidiary of the Company that is intended, or would reasonably be expected, to prevent, impede, interfere with, delay, postpone or adversely affect the transactions contemplated by a Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction or could reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions to the Company’s obligations under a Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction not being fulfilled; unless any such action or proposal is recommended by the Special Committee.

 

(b)                                 Stockholder Proposal.  In the event that one or more of the Stockholders, acting alone or with any of their respective Affiliates, together with one or more other persons, provides the Company with a Proposal to acquire the Company that is fully financed (i.e., a Proposal that has no financing condition and that includes evidence reasonably acceptable to the Special Committee of their ability to fund the Proposal in its entirety) (a “Stockholder Proposal”) prior to the Special Committee’s recommendation of a Recommended Transaction with any prospective buyer other than a Stockholder, the provisions of Section 1.1(a), 1.2 and 1.3 shall be applicable only to a Recommended Transaction from a prospective buyer that, by its terms provides that the holders of Company Common Stock would receive at closing cash consideration in an amount, or securities listed on a national securities exchange with a trading value at the time of execution of a Definitive Agreement with respect to such transaction, exceeding the consideration per share payable pursuant to the Stockholder Proposal.  Nothing in this Section 1(b) shall be construed to prohibit or otherwise limit the ability of the Stockholders to submit a Proposal at any time that contains a price per share that, by its terms provides that the holders of Company Common Stock would receive at closing cash consideration in an amount, or securities listed on a national securities exchange with a trading value at the time of execution of a Definitive Agreement with respect to such transaction, exceeding the consideration per share payable pursuant to the Definitive Agreement for a Recommended Transaction (a “Superior Stockholder Proposal”).  In the event that one or more of the Stockholders submits a Superior Stockholder Proposal that 

 

2

 

is fully financed (as defined in the parenthetical in the first sentence of this Section 1(b)), the provisions of Section 1.1(a), 1.2 and 1.3 shall be applicable only to a Recommended Transaction from a prospective buyer that, by its terms provides that the holders of Company Common Stock would receive at closing cash consideration in an amount, or securities listed on a national securities exchange with a trading value at the time of execution of a Definitive Agreement with respect to such transaction, exceeding the consideration per share payable pursuant to the Superior Stockholder Proposal.

 

(c)                                  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Sections 1.1(a), 1.2 and 1.3 shall be applicable only to a Recommended Transaction if prior to or concurrently with the execution of the Definitive Agreement with respect thereto, the Company and or the buyer shall have entered into arrangements to provide for (x) the termination or replacement of all then outstanding Sillerman Credit Supports, and the release of all collateral posted pursuant thereto, (y) the release of the Stockholders and their respective Affiliates from any and all support obligations under the Sillerman Credit Supports and (z) the reimbursement of the Stockholders and their respective Affiliates for all unreimbursed payments made by them in respect of the Sillerman Credit Supports.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the amounts set forth on Exhibit A under the caption “Outstanding Unreimbursed Payments” constitute all such unreimbursed payments as of the date of this Agreement, and (ii) any such amounts that are reimbursed prior to the execution of the Definitive Agreement with respect to a Recommended Transaction shall be deemed removed from Exhibit A immediately upon such reimbursement.  As of the date of this Agreement, “Sillerman Credit Supports” means the guaranties of obligations of the Company and/or its Subsidiaries provided by the Stockholders and listed on Exhibit A hereto.

 

(d)                                 No Contrary Agreements.  Subject to Section 1.4, each Stockholder agrees not to, and shall cause its Representatives not to, enter into any agreement, commitment or arrangement with any Person the effect of which would be inconsistent with or violative of the provisions and agreements contained in this Article I.

 

Section 1.2                                    Grant of Irrevocable Proxy.  Each Stockholder hereby appoints the Company and any designee of the Company, and as each Stockholder’s agent, proxy and attorney-in-fact, with full power of substitution and resubstitution in the premises, to vote or act by written consent during the Voting Period with respect to any and all of the Subject Shares in accordance with Section 1.1, in each case subject to the receipt of any requisite regulatory approvals, if required.  Each Stockholder shall promptly cause a copy of this Agreement to be deposited with the Company at its principal place of business.  Each Stockholder shall take such further action or execute such other instruments as may be necessary to effectuate the intent of this proxy.  Each Stockholder affirms that the irrevocable proxy set forth in this Article II is given in connection with, and in consideration of, the Company’s agreement to conduct the sale process, and that such irrevocable proxy is given to the Company by each Stockholder to secure the performance of the duties of each Stockholder under this Agreement.

Section 1.3                                    Nature of Irrevocable Proxy.  The proxy and power of attorney granted pursuant to Section 1.2 to the Company by each Stockholder shall (a) be irrevocable during the term of this Agreement, (b) be deemed to be coupled with an interest sufficient in law to support an irrevocable proxy, (c) revoke any and all prior proxies and powers of attorney granted by each Stockholder with respect to the Subject Shares and (d) not give any subsequent proxy or power of attorney with respect to the Subject Shares, other than a proxy necessary to permit each Stockholder to comply with Section 1.1.  The power of attorney granted by each Stockholder herein is a durable power of attorney and shall survive the dissolution, bankruptcy, death or incapacity of each Stockholder and shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors or assigns of each Stockholder.  The proxy and power of attorney granted hereunder shall terminate upon the termination of this Agreement.  It is agreed that the Company and any designee of the Company shall use the irrevocable proxy granted hereby only in accordance with applicable law.  For the avoidance of doubt, the vote of the Company or any designee of the Company shall control in any conflict between the vote by the Company or any designee of the Company of the Subject Shares and any other vote by Stockholder of the Subject Shares.

 

Section 1.4                                    Action in Stockholder Capacity Only.  The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement is entered into by each Stockholder in his or its capacity as an owner of Subject Shares and that nothing in this Agreement shall in any way restrict or limit any Stockholder from taking or authorizing any action or inaction in his or its capacity as a director, officer or other fiduciary of the Company.  Further, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to impose any obligation or limitation on votes or actions taken by any director, officer, general partner, member, employee, agent or other representative (collectively, “Representatives”) of Stockholder in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company.

 

COVENANTS

 

Section 1.5                                    Generally.

(b)                                 In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in the Common Stock by reason of any stock dividend or distribution, split-up, recapitalization, combination, conversion, exchange of shares or the like, the term “Subject Shares” shall be
