ARTICLE III

Representations and Warranties

          SECTION 3.01. Representations and Warranties of RN Parent. Except as set forth in a
schedule dated the date of this Agreement (the “Disclosure Schedule”) (with specific
reference to the Section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information stated in such
schedule relates; provided, however, that information set forth in one Section of
the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to each other Section or subsection to which its
relevance is readily apparent), RN Parent represents and warrants to MTVN Parent as follows:

          (a) Organization, Standing and Power. Each of RN Parent and RN Sub (i) is duly
organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing (with respect to jurisdictions which
recognize such concept) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is so organized or formed
and (ii) has full corporate power and authority to perform and comply with all the terms and
conditions of each Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party. Each of RN
Parent and RN Sub is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing
(with respect to jurisdictions which recognize such concept) in all material respects in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of the business transacted by it or the character or location of
the properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification.

          (b) Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. Each of RN Parent and RN Sub
has full power and authority to execute and deliver the Transaction Documents to which it is, or is
specified to be, a party, and to consummate the Transactions to which it is, or is specified to be,
a party. The execution, delivery and performance by each of RN Parent and RN Sub of the
Transaction Documents to which it is, or is specified to be, a party and the consummation by each
of RN Parent and RN Sub of the Transactions to which it is, or is specified to be, a party have
been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the
part of RN Parent or RN Sub are necessary to authorize this Agreement or the consummation of the
Transactions. Each of RN Parent and RN Sub has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and each
other Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party, and this Agreement
constitutes, and each other Transaction Document to which it

11

 

is, or is specified to be, a party will (assuming the execution and delivery by each other
party thereto) constitute its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms.

          (c) No Conflicts; Consents. The execution and delivery by RN Parent and RN Sub of
this Agreement do not, the execution and delivery by RN Parent and RN Sub of each other Transaction
Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party will not, and the consummation of the
Transactions and compliance by RN Parent and RN Sub with the terms of the Transaction Documents
will not conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice or lapse
of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or acceleration of
any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or to increased, additional, accelerated or
guaranteed rights or entitlements of any Person under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon
any of the RN Contribution Assets under, any provision of (i) the Organizational Documents of RN
Parent or its subsidiaries, (ii) any RN Contributed Contract or any Contract by which any of the RN
Contribution Assets is bound or (iii) any Judgment or Applicable Law applicable to RN Parent or its
subsidiaries or their respective properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses (ii) and
(iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate, has not had, and would not
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to RN Parent. No Consent
of, or registration, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity is required to be obtained
or made by or with respect to RN Parent or its subsidiaries in connection with the (A) execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement or any other Transaction Document or the consummation of
the Transactions or (B) the conduct by the Company of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business
of RN Parent following the Closing as conducted on the date hereof.

          (d) Title to Assets. RN Parent owns, directly or indirectly, and has good and valid
title to all of the RN Contribution Assets, free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens.
This Section 3.01(d) does not relate to RN Contributed Intellectual Property, such items being the
subject of Section 3.01(i).

          (e) Profit/Loss Statements. Schedule 3.01(e) sets forth the profit/loss statements
of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent from January 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007.
Such profit/loss statements have been prepared from the books and records of RN Parent relating to
its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business and present fairly in all material respects the
results of operations of its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business for the periods indicated.

          (f) No Undisclosed Material Extraordinary Liabilities. Schedule 3.01(f) sets forth,
(A) to the best of RN Sub and RN Parent’s knowledge and belief after reasonable diligence and
inquiry by RN Sub and RN Parent’s officers, all liabilities and obligations of any nature (whether
accrued, absolute, contingent, unasserted or otherwise) of the Existing Consumer Digital Music
Business of RN Parent, except for (i) liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary course
of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent consistent with past practice, (ii)
taxes, (iii) liabilities and obligations related to patent infringement claims (which are addressed
below) and (iv) matters that, individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to be
material to

12

 

the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent taken as a whole and (B) all patent
infringement claims related to or that would reasonably be purported to be related to the Existing
Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent about which RN Parent has actual knowledge, without
having conducted due diligence or inquiry, except for patent infringement claims that, individually
or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to be material to the Existing Consumer Digital
Music Business of RN Parent taken as a whole.

          (g) Contracts. All of the RN Contributed Contracts are in full force and effect and
are valid and binding agreements of RN Parent and, to the knowledge of RN Parent, the other parties
thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general applicability
affecting creditors’ rights and remedies, and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles
of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing
(regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a Proceeding at law or in equity). To the
knowledge of RN Parent, no party is in default in any material respect under any of the RN
Contributed Contracts, nor does any condition exist that with notice or the lapse of time or both
would constitute such a default in any material respect. Except that which individually or in the
aggregate, has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect
with respect to RN Parent, the Transactions will not affect the validity or enforceability of any
of the RN Contributed Contracts. Except that which individually or in the aggregate, has not had,
and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to RN Parent,
no party to any of the RN Contributed Contracts has informed RN Parent of its intention or, to RN
Parent’s actual knowledge, intends (i) to terminate such Contract or amend the material terms
thereof, (ii) to refuse to renew such Contract upon expiration of its term or (iii) to renew such
Contract upon expiration only on terms and conditions that are more onerous to RN Parent’s Existing
Consumer Digital Music Business, as the case may be, than those now existing. Complete and correct
copies of all Contracts listed in the Schedules, together with all modifications and amendments
thereto, have been made available to MTVN Parent.

          (h) Permits. Each material Permit of RN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music
Business has been validly issued and is in full force and effect, and RN Parent is the authorized
legal holder thereof and has complied in all material respects with all the terms and conditions
thereof. As of the date hereof, there is no Proceeding pending or, to RN Parent’s knowledge,
threatened, seeking the revocation, modification (in a manner adverse to RN Parent’s Existing
Consumer Digital Music Business) or limitation of any material Permit of RN Parent’s Existing
Consumer Digital Music Business, and no such Permit will be subject to suspension, modification,
revocation or non-renewal as a result of the execution of this Agreement or the consummation of the
Transactions, except for such suspensions, modifications, revocations or non-renewals that
individually or in the aggregate, has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a
Material Adverse Effect with respect to RN Parent. RN Parent possesses all material Permits to own
or hold under lease and operate the RN Contribution Assets that are necessary to enable it to
conduct its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business as currently conducted.

13

 

          (i) Contributed Intellectual Property. Except as has arisen in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice and without material diminution of the value thereof, to the
knowledge of RN Parent, no other Person has any claim of ownership or right of use with respect to
any RN Contributed Intellectual Property. The use of RN Contributed Intellectual Property by RN
Parent does not, and the use by the Company immediately after the Closing will not, conflict with,
infringe upon, violate, or interfere with or constitute an appropriation of any right, title,
interest, or goodwill, including any intellectual property right, patent (including all reissues,
divisions, continuations and extensions thereof), patent application, patent right, trademark,
trademark registration, trademark application, servicemark, trade name, business name, brand name,
copyright, copyright registration, design, design registrations, and right to any of the foregoing
of any other Person, and, to the knowledge of RN Parent, there have been no claims made, and RN
Parent has not received any written notice, that any item of RN Contributed Intellectual Property
is invalid or conflicts with the asserted rights of any Person.

          (j) Privacy. To the best of RN Sub and RN Parent’s knowledge and belief after
reasonable diligence and inquiry by RN Sub and RN Parent’s officers, the conduct of RN Parent’s
Existing Consumer Digital Music Business by RN Parent and its subsidiaries and divisions complies
in all material respects with all Applicable Laws (including the Children’s Online Privacy
Protection Act of 1998, as amended) with respect to the protection of personal privacy, Personally
Identifiable Information regulated thereunder, sensitive personal information, personal information
of children and any other categories of personal information, whether or not the same is accessed
or used by RN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business.

          (k) Litigation. There are not any (i) outstanding Judgments against or affecting the
Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent or (ii) Proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of RN Parent, threatened or alleged against or affecting the Existing Consumer Digital
Music Business of RN Parent, by or against any Governmental Entity or any other Person, that in any
manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin, materially alter or materially delay the
Transactions or that, individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a
Material Adverse Effect with respect to RN Parent.

          (l) Compliance with Applicable Laws. RN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music
Business has been and is presently being conducted in compliance in all material respects with all
Applicable Laws. RN Parent has not received any written communication during the past year from a
Governmental Entity that alleges that its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business is not in
compliance in any material respect with any Applicable Laws, and RN Parent has not received any
written notice that any investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to any of
its Initial Contributions or its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business is pending or that any
such investigation is contemplated.

          (m) Material Adverse Effect. Since June 30, 2007, there has not been any event,
change, effect or development that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or

14

 

would reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on (i) the business, assets,
financial condition or results of operations of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN
Parent taken as a whole or (ii) RN Parent’s ability to perform its obligations under any
Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party.

          (n) Investment Intent. Each of RN Parent and RN Sub understands that (i) the
membership interests in the Company to be issued to it as contemplated by this Agreement or the LLC
Agreement have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or under any state securities laws, and are being offered and sold in reliance upon federal and
state exemptions for transactions not involving any public offering, and (ii) to the extent it
acquires any additional membership interests in the Company as contemplated by the LLC Agreement,
it will be acquiring such interests solely for its own account for investment purposes, and not
with a view to the distribution thereof.

          (o) Sufficiency of Contributed Assets. The RN Contribution Assets, the RN License
Assets and RN Service Assets comprise all the material assets employed by RN Parent and its
subsidiaries and divisions necessary to conduct the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN
Parent. The RN Contribution Assets, the RN License Assets and RN Service Assets are sufficient for
the conduct of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of RN Parent immediately following the
Closing in substantially the same manner as currently conducted.

          (p) Conduct of the Company. The Company has not conducted any business prior to the
Closing and has no assets and liabilities other than those incident to its formation and to the
consummation of the Transactions.

          SECTION 3.02. Representations and Warranties of MTVN Parent. Except as set forth in
the Disclosure Schedule (with specific reference to the Section or subsection of this Agreement to
which the information stated in such schedule relates; provided, however, that
information set forth in one Section of the Disclosure Schedule shall be deemed to apply to each
other Section or subsection to which its relevance is readily apparent), MTVN Parent represents and
warrants to RN Parent as follows:

          (a) Organization, Standing and Power. Each of MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub (i) is duly
organized or formed, validly existing and in good standing (with respect to jurisdictions which
recognize such concept) under the laws of the jurisdiction in which it is so organized or formed
and (ii) has full corporate power and authority to perform and comply with all the terms and
conditions of each Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party. Each of
MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good
standing (with respect to jurisdictions which recognize such concept) in all material respects in
each jurisdiction in which the nature of the business transacted by it or the character or location
of the properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification.

          (b) Authority; Execution and Delivery; Enforceability. Each of MTVN Parent and MTVN
Sub has full power and authority to execute and deliver the

15

 

Transaction Documents to which it is, or is specified to be, a party, and to consummate the
Transactions to which it is, or is specified to be, a party. The execution, delivery and
performance by each of MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub of the Transaction Documents to which it is, or is
specified to be, a party and the consummation by each of MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub of the
Transactions to which it is, or is specified to be, a party have been duly authorized by all
necessary corporate action and no other corporate proceedings on the part of MTVN Parent or MTVN
Sub are necessary to authorize this Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions. Each of
MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and each other Transaction
Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party, and this Agreement constitutes, and each
other Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party will (assuming the
execution and delivery by each other party thereto) constitute its legal, valid and binding
obligations, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

          (c) No Conflicts; Consents. The execution and delivery by MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub of
this Agreement do not, the execution and delivery by MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub of each other
Transaction Document to which it is, or is specified to be, a party will not, and the consummation
of the Transactions and compliance by MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub with the terms of the Transaction
Documents will not conflict with, or result in any violation of or default (with or without notice
or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or
acceleration of any obligation or to loss of a material benefit under, or to increased, additional,
accelerated or guaranteed rights or entitlements of any Person under, or result in the creation of
any Lien upon any of the MTVN Contribution Assets under, any provision of (i) the Organizational
Documents of MTVN Parent or its subsidiaries, (ii) any MTVN Contributed Contract or any Contract by
which any of the MTVN Contribution Assets is bound or (iii) any Judgment or Applicable Law
applicable to MTVN Parent or its subsidiaries or their respective properties or assets, other than,
in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above, any such items that, individually or in the aggregate,
has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect
to MTVN Parent. No Consent of, or registration, declaration or filing with any Governmental Entity
is required to be obtained or made by or with respect to MTVN Parent or its subsidiaries in
connection with the (A) execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement or any other
Transaction Document or the consummation of the Transactions or (B) the conduct by the Company of
the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent following the Closing as conducted on
the date hereof.

          (d) Title to Assets. MTVN Parent owns, directly or indirectly, and has good and valid
title to all of the MTVN Contribution Assets, free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens.
This Section 3.02(d) does not relate to MTVN Contributed Intellectual Property, such items being
the subject of Section 3.02(i).

          (e) Profit/Loss Statements. Schedule 3.02(e) sets forth the profit/loss statements
of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent from January 1, 2004 to June 24,
2007. Such profit/loss statements have been prepared from the books and records of MTVN Parent
relating to its Existing Consumer Digital Music

16

 

Business and present fairly in all material respects the results of operations of its Existing
Consumer Digital Music Business for the periods indicated.

          (f) No Undisclosed Material Extraordinary Liabilities. Schedule 3.02(f) sets forth,
(A) to the best of MTVN Sub and MTVN Parent’s knowledge and belief after reasonable diligence and
inquiry by MTVN Sub and MTVN Parent’s officers, all liabilities and obligations of any nature
(whether accrued, absolute, contingent, unasserted or otherwise) of the Existing Consumer Digital
Music Business of MTVN Parent, except for (i) liabilities and obligations incurred in the ordinary
course of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent consistent with past
practice, (ii) taxes, (iii) liabilities and obligations related to patent infringement claims
(which are addressed below) and (iv) matters that, individually or in the aggregate, are not
reasonably likely to be material to the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent
taken as a whole and (B) all patent infringement claims related to or that would reasonably be
purported to be related to the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent about which
MTVN Parent has actual knowledge, without having conducted due diligence or inquiry, except for
patent infringement claims that, individually or in the aggregate, are not reasonably likely to be
material to the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent taken as a whole.

          (g) Contracts. All of the MTVN Contributed Contracts are in full force and effect and
are valid and binding agreements of MTVN Parent and, to the knowledge of MTVN Parent, the other
parties thereto, enforceable in accordance with their terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general
applicability affecting creditors’ rights and remedies, and subject, as to enforceability, to
general principles of equity, including principles of commercial reasonableness, good faith and
fair dealing (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a Proceeding at law or in equity). To
the knowledge of MTVN Parent, no party is in default in any material respect under any of the
MTVN Contributed Contracts, nor does any condition exist that with notice or the lapse of time or
both would constitute such a default in any material respect. Except that which individually or in
the aggregate, has not had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect
with respect to MTVN Parent, the Transactions will not affect the validity or enforceability of any
of the MTVN Contributed Contracts. Except that which individually or in the aggregate, has not
had, and would not reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to
MTVN Parent, no party to any of the MTVN Contributed Contracts has informed MTVN Parent of its
intention or, to MTVN Parent’s actual knowledge, intends (i) to terminate such Contract or amend
the material terms thereof, (ii) to refuse to renew such Contract upon expiration of its term or
(iii) to renew such Contract upon expiration only on terms and conditions that are more onerous to
MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business, as the case may be, than those now
existing. Complete and correct copies of all Contracts listed in the Schedules, together with all
modifications and amendments thereto, have been made available to RN Parent.

          (h) Permits. Each material Permit of MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music
Business has been validly issued and is in full force and effect, and

17

 

MTVN Parent is the authorized legal holder thereof and has complied in all material respects
with all the terms and conditions thereof. As of the date hereof, there is no Proceeding pending
or, to MTVN Parent’s knowledge, threatened, seeking the revocation, modification (in a manner
adverse to MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business) or limitation of any material
Permit of MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business, and no such Permit will be
subject to suspension, modification, revocation or non-renewal as a result of the execution of this
Agreement or the consummation of the Transactions, except for such suspensions, modifications,
revocations or non-renewals that individually or in the aggregate, has not had, and would not
reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect with respect to MTVN Parent. MTVN Parent
possesses all material Permits to own or hold under lease and operate the MTVN Contribution Assets
that are necessary to enable it to conduct its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business as
currently conducted.

          (i) Contributed Intellectual Property. Except as has arisen in the ordinary course of
business consistent with past practice and without material diminution of the value thereof, to the
knowledge of MTVN Parent, no other Person has any claim of ownership or right of use with respect
to any MTVN Contributed Intellectual Property. The use of MTVN Contributed Intellectual Property
by MTVN Parent does not, and the use by the Company immediately after the Closing will not,
conflict with, infringe upon, violate, or interfere with or constitute an appropriation of any
right, title, interest, or goodwill, including any intellectual property right, patent (including
all reissues, divisions, continuations and extensions thereof), patent application, patent right,
trademark, trademark registration, trademark application, servicemark, trade name, business name,
brand name, copyright, copyright registration, design, design registrations, and right to any of
the foregoing of any other Person, and, to the knowledge of MTVN Parent, there have been no claims
made, and MTVN Parent has not received any written notice, that any item of MTVN Contributed
Intellectual Property is invalid or conflicts with the asserted rights of any Person.

          (j) Privacy. To the best of MTVN Sub and MTVN Parent’s knowledge and belief after
reasonable diligence and inquiry by MTVN Sub and MTVN Parent’s officers, the conduct of
MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business by MTVN Parent and its subsidiaries and
divisions complies in all material respects with all Applicable Laws (including the Children’s
Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998, as amended) with respect to the protection of personal
privacy, Personally Identifiable Information regulated thereunder, sensitive personal information,
personal information of children and any other categories of personal information, whether or not
the same is accessed or used by MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music Business.

          (k) Litigation. There are not any (i) outstanding Judgments against or affecting the
Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent or (ii) Proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of MTVN Parent, threatened or alleged against or affecting the Existing Consumer Digital
Music Business of MTVN Parent, by or against any Governmental Entity or any other Person, that in
any manner challenges or seeks to prevent, enjoin, materially alter or materially delay the
Transactions or that,

18

 

individually or in the aggregate, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect with respect to MTVN Parent.

          (l) Compliance with Applicable Laws. MTVN Parent’s Existing Consumer Digital Music
Business has been and is presently being conducted in compliance in all material respects with all
Applicable Laws. MTVN Parent has not received any written communication during the past year from
a Governmental Entity that alleges that its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business is not in
compliance in any material respect with any Applicable Laws, and MTVN Parent has not received any
written notice that any investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to any of
its Initial Contributions or its Existing Consumer Digital Music Business is pending or that any
such investigation is contemplated.

          (m) Material Adverse Effect. Since June 30, 2007, there has not been any event,
change, effect or development that, individually or in the aggregate, has had, or would reasonably
be expected to have, a material adverse effect on (i) the business, assets, financial condition or
results of operations of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent taken as a
whole or (ii) MTVN Parent’s ability to perform its obligations under any Transaction Document to
which it is, or is specified to be, a party.

          (n) Investment Intent. Each of MTVN Sub Parent and MTVN understands that (i) the
membership interests in the Company to be issued to it as contemplated by this Agreement or the LLC
Agreement have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended,
or under any state securities laws, and are being offered and sold in reliance upon federal and
state exemptions for transactions not involving any public offering, and (ii) to the extent it
acquires any additional membership interests in the Company as contemplated by the LLC Agreement,
it will be acquiring such interests solely for its own account for investment purposes, and not
with a view to the distribution thereof.

          (o) Sufficiency of Contributed Assets. The MTVN Contribution Assets, the MTVN License
Assets and MTVN Service Assets comprise all the material assets employed by MTVN Parent and its
subsidiaries and divisions necessary to conduct the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of
MTVN Parent. The MTVN Contribution Assets, the MTVN License Assets and MTVN Service Assets are
sufficient for the conduct of the Existing Consumer Digital Music Business of MTVN Parent
immediately following the Closing in substantially the same manner as currently conducted.

ARTICLE IV

Covenants

          SECTION 4.01. Tax Treatment. RN Parent, RN Sub, MTVN Parent and MTVN Sub hereby agree
that the Initial Contributions pursuant to Section 2.01(a) and Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement
and Section 4.01 of the LLC Agreement shall be treated as tax-free contributions of property under
Section 721(a) of the Code. Therefore,

19

 

none of RN Parent, RN Sub, and MTVN Parent, or MTVN Sub shall take any position inconsistent
with such characterization or with Section 2.01(c) of this Agreement on any tax return unless
otherwise required by law.

          SECTION 4.02. Employee Matters. (a) Shortly following the Closing, the Company shall
offer employment to be effective as of September 1, 2007 to the employees of RN Parent and
MTVN Parent set forth on Schedule 4 hereto. The Company’s employment offers to employees of
MTVN Parent or RN Parent shall be on such terms as MTVN Parent, MTVN Sub, RN Parent and RN Sub
reasonably agree; provided that the cash compensation (i.e., base salary and bonus
opportunity) provided for in such an offer shall be no less than those provided to the employee by
MTVN Parent or RN Parent immediately prior to the Closing. Employees who accept the term offer of
employment are hereinafter referred to as “Transferred Employees.”

          (b) Subject to the Company’s compliance with the requirements of Section 4.02(a) hereof,
MTVN Parent, MTVN Sub, RN Parent and RN Sub each agree to reasonably cooperate to directly or
indirectly contribute such employees to the Company as are reasonably necessary to enable the
Company to operate its business; provided that notwithstanding the generality of the
foregoing, Michael Bloom shall be offered employment as General Manager of the Company.

          (c) Within 60 days following the Closing, the Company shall develop a long term incentive
program based on the performance of the Company on terms reasonably agreed by MTVN Parent, MTVN
Sub, RN Parent and RN Sub. The Company shall implement such long term incentive program prior to
January 1, 2008.

          (d) From and after the Closing, the Company shall provide Transferred Employees who were
formerly employees of MTVN Parent immediately prior to the Closing (the “MTVN Transferred
Employees”) and Transferred Employees who were formerly employees of RN Parent immediately
prior to the Closing (the “RN Transferred Employees”), compensation (including cash
compensation in accordance with Section 4.02(a)) and benefits (including severance benefits) that
are substantially comparable in the aggregate to those provided to the similarly situated
Transferred Employees who were formerly employees of RN Parent immediately prior to the Closing;
provided that in no event shall the aggregate compensation and benefits, (including
severance benefits) paid or payable by the Company to an MTVN Transferred Employee or RN
Transferred Employee be substantially less than those paid or payable to the MTVN Transferred
Employee or RN Transferred Employee, respectively, immediately prior to the Closing.

          (e) For purposes of eligibility, vesting and benefit accrual (other than benefit accrual with
respect to any defined benefit plans) under each employee benefit plan of the Company in which any
MTVN Transferred Employee or RN Transferred Employee is eligible to participate after the Closing,
the Company shall treat the service of such MTVN Transferred Employee or RN Transferred Employee
with the Company as service with the Company. Following the Closing, for purposes of each employee
benefit plan of the Company in which any MTVN Transferred Employee or RN Transferred

20

 

Employee or his or her eligible dependents is eligible to participate after the Closing, the
Company (i) shall waive, or cause to be waived, any pre-existing condition, exclusion,
actively-at-work requirement or waiting period to the extent such condition, exclusion, requirement
or waiting period was satisfied or waived under a comparable employee benefit plan as of the
Closing and (ii) shall provide, or cause to be provided, full credit for any co-payments,
deductibles or similar payments made or incurred under a comparable employee benefit plan prior to
the Closing.

          SECTION 4.03. Expenses; Transfer Taxes. (a) All costs and expenses incurred in
connection with the preparation of the Transaction Documents and the consummation of the
Transactions shall be paid by the party incurring such costs and expenses.

          (b) Each of RN Parent and MTVN Parent shall pay all Transfer Taxes on its Initial
Contributions Contributed to the Company pursuant to Section 2.01.

          SECTION 4.04. Other Assets. (a) In the event that at any time or from time to time
after the date hereof, RN Parent shall have knowledge that any RN Other Asset has not been
Contributed, licensed or provided in the form of services to the Company, RN Parent shall promptly
transfer the benefits of such RN Other Asset to the Company by Contributing, licensing or providing
in the form of services such RN Other Asset on terms substantially similar to those applicable to
comparable RN License Assets or RN Service Assets, as the case may be. Prior to any such transfer,
RN Parent shall be deemed to have held such RN Other Asset in trust for the Company. Upon such
transfer, RN Parent shall provide to MTVN Parent the representations and warranties for such RN
Other Asset that would have been provided had such RN Other Asset been included as part of the RN
Contribution Assets, RN License Assets or RN Service Assets, as applicable, and RN Parent shall be
subject to indemnification obligations and all other consequences applicable to a breach of such
representations and warranties.

          (b) In the event that at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, MTVN Parent
shall have knowledge that any MTVN Other Asset has not been Contributed, licensed or provided in
the form of services to the Company, MTVN Parent shall promptly transfer the benefits of such
MTVN Other Asset to the Company by Contributing, licensing or providing in the form of services
such MTVN Other Asset on terms substantially similar to those applicable to comparable MTVN License
Assets or MTVN Service Assets, as the case may be. Prior to any such transfer, MTVN Parent shall
be deemed to have held such MTVN Other Asset in trust for the Company. Upon such transfer,
MTVN Parent shall provide to RN Parent the representations and warranties for such MTVN Other Asset
that would have been provided had such MTVN Other Asset been included as part of the
MTVN Contribution Assets, MTVN License Assets or MTVN Service Assets, as applicable, and
MTVN Parent shall be subject to indemnification obligations and all other consequences applicable
to a breach of such representations and warranties. In particular, MTVN Parent and RN Parent
hereby agree to negotiate in good faith within thirty (30) days from the Closing appropriate
additional contributions pursuant to this Agreement and/or appropriate licenses to the Company for
use in the Company’s digital consumer music business, on

21

 

terms substantially similar to those used for technology licensed to the Company by RN Parent
in the RN License and Services Agreement, to use, modify and own derivative works with respect to
the portions of the following components developed or acquired specifically for the URGE digital
music service: (i) the web version of URGE, (ii) software with respect to the back-end system of
the URGE music service, and (iii) wireframes and design for each of the web version of URGE, URGE
community design and URGE mobile development, subject in each case to third party rights.

          SECTION 4.05. Further Assurances. (a) From time to time after the date hereof, as
and when reasonably requested by another party, each party shall execute and deliver, or cause to
be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and shall take, or cause to be taken,
all such further or other actions as such other party may reasonably deem necessary or desirable to
give effect to the Transactions.

          (b) In the event that at any time or from time to time after the date hereof, a party shall
receive or otherwise possess any asset which was included in any party’s Initial Contributions that
was not assigned or otherwise transferred to the Company at the date hereof, such party shall
promptly transfer, or cause to be transferred, such asset to the Company. Prior to any such
transfer, the party possessing such asset shall hold such asset (and all earnings generated by such
asset from and after the date hereof) in trust for the Company.

(“Losses”) as incurred (payable promptly upon written request), to the extent arising from,
in connection with or otherwise with respect to:

     (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of RN Parent or RN Sub that survives

22

 

     (i) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.01(a) unless the aggregate of all Losses

an amount equal to $[ * ], and then only to the extent of any such excess;

     (ii) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.01(a) for any individual items where the
Loss relating thereto is less than $[ * ] and such items shall not be aggregated for
purposes of clause (i) of this Section 5.01(b);

     (iii) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.01(a) in excess of $200 million (except

Affiliates.

          SECTION 5.02. MTVN Indemnification. (a)  MTVN Parent shall indemnify RN Parent and
its Affiliates, the Company and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees, stockholders, agents and representatives against, and hold them harmless from, any
Losses, as incurred (payable promptly upon written request), to the extent arising from, in
connection with or otherwise with respect to:

     (i) any breach of any representation or warranty of MTVN Parent or MTVN Sub that
survives the Closing and is contained in this Agreement;

     (ii) any failure by MTVN Parent or MTVN Sub to perform or fulfill any of its covenants
or agreements contained in this Agreement;

for which MTVN Parent would, but for this clause (i), be liable exceeds on a cumulative
basis an amount equal to $[ * ], and then only to the extent of any such excess;

 

[ * ]   designates portions of this document that have been omitted pursuant to a request for
confidential treatment filed separately with the Commission.

23

 

     (ii) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.02(a) for any individual items where the Loss
relating thereto is less than $[ * ] and such items shall not be aggregated for purposes
of clause (i) of this Section 5.02(b);

     (iii) under clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 5.02(a) in excess of $200 million (except

     (iv) under Section 5.02(a) to the extent the liability or obligation arises as a
result of any action taken or omitted to be taken by RN Parent or RN Sub or any of its
Affiliates.

          SECTION 5.03. Company Indemnification. The Company shall indemnify RN Parent and its
Affiliates, MTVN Parent and its Affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees, stockholders, agents and representatives against, and hold them harmless from, any
Losses, as incurred (payable promptly upon written request), to the extent arising from, in
connection with or otherwise with respect to any failure by the Company to perform or fulfill any
of its covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement, including without limitation with
respect to any of the MTVN Contribution Assets, RN Contribution Assets, MTVN Included Liabilities
or RN Included Liabilities; provided, that, if the indemnified party is RN Sub, RN Parent,
an Affiliate thereof or an officer, director, employee, stockholder, agent or representative
thereof, neither RN Sub, RN Parent or any Affiliate thereof shall participate nor have any
involvement in the Company’s defense of such claim, and if the indemnified party is MTVN Sub,
MTVN Parent, an Affiliate thereof or an officer, director, employee, stockholder, agent or
representative thereof, neither MTVN Sub, MTVN Parent or any Affiliate thereof shall participate
nor have any involvement in the Company’s defense of such claim; provided, further that the
settlement or payment by the Company of any such claim or any other action or decision in
connection with such claim valued in excess of $[  * ]shall require Unanimous Approval (as defined
in the LLC Agreement) in accordance with Section 9.03 of the LLC Agreement, such approval not to be
unreasonably withheld. Any disputes with respect to any such settlements or payment of such claims
shall be resolved in accordance with Section 6.10 of this Agreement.

          SECTION 5.04. Calculation of Losses. The amount of any Loss for which indemnification
is provided under this Article V shall be net of any amounts actually recovered by the indemnified
party under insurance policies with respect to such Loss and shall be (i) increased to take account
of any net tax cost incurred by the indemnified party arising from the receipt of indemnity
payments hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (ii) reduced to take account of any net tax
benefit realized by the indemnified party arising from the incurrence or payment of any such Loss.
In computing the amount of any such tax cost or tax benefit, the indemnified party shall be

 

[ * ]   designates portions of this document that have been omitted pursuant to a request for
confidential treatment filed separately with the Commission.

24

 

deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss deduction or credit before recognizing
any item arising from the receipt of any indemnity payment hereunder or the incurrence or payment
of any indemnified Loss.

          SECTION 5.05. Termination of Indemnification. The obligations to indemnify and hold
harmless any party, (i) pursuant to Section 5.01(a)(i) or 5.02(a)(i), shall terminate when the
applicable representation or warranty terminates pursuant to Section 5.08 and (ii) pursuant to the
other clauses of Sections 5.01, 5.02 and 5.03 shall not terminate; provided,
however, that such obligations to indemnify and hold harmless shall not terminate with
respect to any item as to which the person to be indemnified shall have, before the expiration of
the applicable period, previously made a claim by delivering a notice of such claim (stating in
reasonable detail the basis of such claim) pursuant to Section 5.06 to the party to be providing
the indemnification.

          SECTION 5.06. Procedures; Exclusivity. (a)  In order for a party (the
“indemnified party”), to be entitled to any indemnification provided for under this
Agreement in respect of, arising out of or involving a claim made by any Person against the
indemnified party (a “Third Party Claim”), such indemnified party must notify the
indemnifying party in writing (and in reasonable detail) of the Third Party Claim promptly after
receipt by such indemnified party of written notice of the Third Party Claim; provided,
however, that failure to give such notification shall not affect the indemnification
provided hereunder except to the extent the indemnifying party shall have been actually and
materially prejudiced as a result of such failure. Thereafter, the indemnified party shall deliver
to the indemnifying party, promptly after the indemnified party’s receipt thereof, copies of all
notices and documents (including court papers) received by the indemnified party relating to the
Third Party Claim.

          (b) If a Third Party Claim is made against an indemnified party, the indemnifying party shall
be entitled to participate in the defense thereof and, if it so chooses, to assume the defense
thereof with counsel selected by the indemnifying party; provided, however, that
such counsel is not reasonably objected to by the indemnified party. Should the indemnifying party
so elect to assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying party shall not be liable
to the indemnified party for any legal expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in
connection with the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party assumes such defense, the
indemnified party shall have the right to participate in the defense thereof and to employ counsel,
at its own expense, separate from the counsel employed by the indemnifying party, it being
understood that the indemnifying party shall control such defense. The indemnifying party shall be
liable for the fees and expenses of counsel employed by the indemnified party for any period during
which the indemnifying party has not assumed the defense thereof. If the indemnifying party
chooses to defend or prosecute a Third Party Claim, all the indemnified parties shall cooperate in
the defense or prosecution thereof. Such cooperation shall include the retention and (upon the
indemnifying party’s request) the provision to the indemnifying party of records and information
that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making employees available on a
mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material
provided hereunder. Whether or not the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a

25

 

Third Party Claim, the indemnified party shall not admit any liability with respect to, or
settle, compromise or discharge, such Third Party Claim without the indemnifying party’s prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).  If the indemnifying
party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, it shall not settle any such claim without the
prior written consent of the indemnified party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld);
provided, however, that the indemnified party shall agree to any settlement,
compromise or discharge of a Third Party Claim that the indemnifying party may recommend and that
by its terms obligates the indemnifying party to pay the full amount of the liability in connection
with such Third Party Claim, which releases the indemnified party completely in connection with
such Third Party Claim and that would not otherwise adversely affect the indemnified party.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume the defense
of any Third Party Claim (and shall be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel
incurred by the indemnified party in defending such Third Party Claim) if the Third Party Claim
seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief or relief for other than money damages against
the indemnified party that the indemnified party reasonably determines, after conferring with its
outside counsel, cannot be separated from any related claim for money damages. If such equitable
relief or other relief portion of the Third Party Claim can be so separated from that for money
damages, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of the portion relating to
money damages.

          (c) In the event any indemnified party should have a claim against any indemnifying party
under this Article V that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to
be collected from such indemnified party, the indemnified party shall deliver notice of such claim
with reasonable promptness to the indemnifying party. Subject to Sections 5.05 and 5.07, the
failure by any indemnified party so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve the
indemnifying party from any liability that it may have to such indemnified party under this Article
V, except to the extent that the indemnifying party demonstrates that it has been materially
prejudiced by such failure.

          (d) After the Closing, Sections 5.01 and 5.02 shall constitute the exclusive remedy for any
misrepresentation or breach of warranty contained in this Agreement.

          SECTION 5.07. Mitigation. RN Parent and MTVN Parent shall cooperate with each other
with respect to resolving any claim or liability with respect to which one party is obligated to
indemnify the other party hereunder, including by making commercially reasonably efforts to
mitigate or resolve any such claim or liability; provided, however, that such party
shall not be required to make such efforts if they would be detrimental in any material respect to
such party. In the event that RN Parent or MTVN Parent shall fail to make such commercially
reasonably efforts to mitigate or resolve any claim or liability, then (unless the proviso to the
foregoing sentence shall be applicable) notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained
herein, the other party shall not be required to indemnify any Person for any loss, liability,
claim, damage or expense that could reasonably be expected to have been avoided if RN Parent or
MTVN Parent, as the case may be, had made such efforts.

26

 

          SECTION 5.08. Survival. The representations and warranties contained in Sections 3.01
and 3.02 of this Agreement shall survive the Closing and shall terminate two years from the date of
this Agreement. The covenants and agreements in this Agreement shall survive in accordance with
their terms or, if no term is stated, then shall survive indefinitely.

ARTICLE VI

Miscellaneous

          SECTION 6.01. Notices. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all
notices, requests and other communications to any party hereunder shall be in writing (including a
facsimile or similar writing) and shall be given to such party at the address or facsimile number
set forth for such party in Schedule 7 hereto or as such party shall hereafter specify for the
purpose by notice to the other parties. Each such notice, request or other communication shall be
effective (a) if given by facsimile, at the time such facsimile is transmitted and the appropriate
confirmation is received (or, if such time is not during a Business Day, at the beginning of the
next such Business Day), (b) if given by mail, five Business Days (or, (i) if by overnight courier,
one Business Day, or (ii) if to an address outside the United States, seven Business Days) after

aforesaid, or (c) if given by any other means, when delivered at the address specified pursuant to
this Section 6.01.

          SECTION 6.02. No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of all the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, and their legal
representatives. No party may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations
in connection with the Transactions. Except as expressly set forth in Article V, this Agreement is
not intended to confer any rights or remedies hereunder upon, and shall not be enforceable by, any
Person other than the parties hereto.

          SECTION 6.03. Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance
of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy
consequent upon a breach of such or any other covenant, agreement, term or condition shall operate
as a waiver of such or any other covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement. Any
party by notice given in accordance with Section 6.01 may, but shall not be under any obligation
to, waive any of its rights or conditions to its obligations hereunder, or any duty, obligation or
covenant of any other party. No waiver shall affect or alter the remainder of this Agreement but
each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition hereof shall continue in full force and
effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach. The rights and remedies
provided by this Agreement are cumulative and the exercise of any one right or remedy by any party
shall not preclude or waive its right to exercise any or all other rights or remedies.

          SECTION 6.04. Integration. The Transaction Documents and all other written agreements
contemporaneously entered into herewith by the parties constitute the

27

 

entire agreement among the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings of the parties in connection herewith, and no covenant,
representation or condition not expressed in this Agreement shall affect, or be effective to
interpret, change or restrict, the express provisions of this Agreement.

          SECTION 6.05. Headings. The titles of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are for
convenience only and shall not be interpreted to limit or amplify the provisions of this Agreement.

          SECTION 6.06. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in multiple counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which, taken together, shall constitute one
and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed
by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

          SECTION 6.07. Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered
separable and if for any reason any provision or provisions hereof are determined to be invalid and
contrary to any existing or future law, such invalidity shall not impair the operation of or affect
those portions of this Agreement which are valid; provided, however, that in such
case the parties shall endeavor to amend or modify this Agreement to achieve to the extent
reasonably practicable the purpose of the invalid provision.

          SECTION 6.08. Amendments and Modifications. This Agreement may be amended or modified
at anytime and from time to time with the written consent of each party.

          SECTION 6.09. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the conflicts of law
principles thereof.

          SECTION 6.10. Dispute Resolution. Any and all disputes arising out of or relating to
any aspect of this Agreement shall be resolved pursuant the provisions set forth in Schedule 6.

          SECTION 6.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties irrevocably waives any and
all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

          SECTION 6.12. Absence of Presumption. The parties have participated jointly in the
negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event of ambiguity or question of intent or
interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by such 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.

obligation of such Member under this Agreement. This is a guarantee of payment and performance and
not collectibility. The Parent of a Member hereby waives diligence, presentment, demand of
performance, filing of any claim, any right to require any proceeding first against such Member,

execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Initial Members are entering into the Transaction,
Contribution and Purchase Agreement whereby each Initial Member shall contribute to the Company the
respective assets set forth therein (with respect to each Member, such Member’s “Initial Asset
Contribution”) and MTVN Sub shall purchase a portion of its Participation Percentage for the

of the Transaction, Contribution and Purchase Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Initial

rata share of the projected losses of the Company for the Fiscal Year of 2007 as set forth
in the Initial Business Plan, and the Initial Cash Contribution to be made by each Member on
December 20, 2007 shall be such Member’s pro rata share of the projected losses of
the Company for the

Fiscal Years of 2008 and 2009 as set forth in the Initial Business Plan. Schedule 4 hereto
sets forth the portion of MTVN Sub’s Participation Percentage that is being received in exchange

          SECTION 4.02. Additional Commitments. (a) After the Effective Date, each Member
shall be obligated to make additional cash contributions as provided in this Article IV (the
“Additional Cash Contributions”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed, in the case of RN
Sub, $[ * ] and in the case of MTVN Sub, $[ * ] (with respect to each Member, such Member’s
“Contribution Cap”).

          (b) During any Fiscal Year for which the Company has an approved Annual Operating Budget, each
Member shall be required to fund, on a pro rata basis, the Additional Cash Contributions set forth
in such Annual Operating Budget (which shall include a working capital allotment), when and as
called by the Joint Committee in accordance with Section 4.04, it being agreed that such Additional
Cash Contributions, together with all other Additional Cash Contributions previously funded by such
Member, shall not exceed such Member’s Contribution Cap. In all other cases, the provisions of
Section 9.07 shall control the funding of Additional Cash Contributions.

          (c) No Member shall have any right or obligation to contribute any cash or assets to the
Company other than as specifically provided for in this Section 4.02, Section 4.04 and Article IX,
except as unanimously agreed by the Members. Neither the Company nor any Member shall have any
obligation or liability to repay any Contribution made by any Member. The value of any non-cash
additional contributions, if any, shall be the fair market value as determined by the Joint
Committee with Unanimous Approval in accordance with Section 9.03.

          SECTION 4.03. Reduction of Additional Commitments. (a) At any time and from time to
time, the Members may unanimously determine to make an irrevocable election to reduce, on a pro
rata basis, each Member’s Contribution Cap (in each case to the extent not previously funded or
utilized). Any such reduction shall not change the applicable Participation Percentage of any
Member’s Interest.

          (b) In the event of any reduction pursuant to this Section 4.03, Schedule 4 hereto shall be
amended and restated to reflect such adjustment.

          SECTION 4.04. Contribution Drawdown. At least 30 days prior to the funding date for
any Additional Cash Contributions, (a “Drawdown Date”), the Joint Committee shall deliver
(or cause to be delivered) to each Member written notice (a “Drawdown Notice”) setting
forth the amount to be funded by such Member as an Additional Cash Contribution and the applicable
Drawdown Date. Each Member shall

20

 

make an Additional Cash Contribution on such Drawdown Date in the amount so specified for such
Member. All Contributions pursuant to this Section 4.04 shall be paid by 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time)
on the applicable Drawdown Date in immediately available funds to the account of the Company
specified in the applicable Drawdown Notice in United States dollars.

          SECTION 4.05. Contribution Default. (a) If a Member fails to fund all or part of its

on the applicable date or its required Additional Cash Contribution in accordance with Section 4.04
by 11:00 a.m. (Eastern time) on the applicable Drawdown Date, then such Member shall be in default
hereunder. If such Member fails to cure such default within five Business Days after receipt of
written notice thereof from the Joint Committee or the other Member, then such Member shall be the
subject of both a “Contribution Default” and an Event of Default in accordance with Section
12.01.

          (b) In addition to the provisions of Section 12.01, any Contribution Default shall result in
(x) the Defaulting Member being obligated to pay interest on the amount of the defaulted
Contribution at a rate equal to 12% per annum and (y) the right of the non-defaulting Member to
elect to make up the defaulted funding requirement, with a corresponding dilution of the Defaulting
Member.

          SECTION 4.06. Capital Loans. (a) During any Fiscal Year for which the Company has an
approved Annual Operating Budget, in the event that as part of the budget approval process, RN Sub
proposes that the Members make cash contributions to the Company in excess of each Member’s
Contribution Cap, RN Sub shall provide written notice to MTVN Sub setting forth the aggregate
amount of such proposed cash contributions (the “New Capital Contributions”). Within 15
Business Days after receipt of such notice, MTVN Sub shall provide written notice to RN Sub stating
whether or not MTVN Sub agrees to such New Capital Contributions. If MTVN Sub agrees to such New
Capital Contributions, then Section 4.02(a) shall be amended to correspondingly increase each
Member’s Contribution Cap, and such New Capital Contributions shall be treated as Additional Cash
Contributions for all purposes hereunder. If MTVN Sub does not agree to such New Capital
Contributions, then RN Sub shall only be permitted to fund such New Capital Contributions in the
form of an unsecured loan to the Company (a “Capital Loan”) on the terms set forth in
Section 4.06(b).

          (b) Any Capital Loan shall (i) have a term ending on the later of (y) the sixth anniversary of
the Effective Date or (z) the second anniversary of the date of such Capital Loan, (ii) be in a
principal amount not to exceed $[ * ] (or, if less, the amount specified in the notice
provided to MTVN Sub proposing the applicable New Capital Contributions), (iii) be in a principal
amount that, when added to the aggregate outstanding principal amounts of all other then
outstanding Capital Loans and Budget Loans, does not exceed the Aggregate Loan Cap, (iv) bear
interest at a rate equal to the Capital Loan Interest Rate, and such interest shall be solely
“pay-in-kind” and shall be added to the principal amount annually and (v) be evidenced solely by a
promissory note in the form of Exhibit B.

          (c) MTVN Sub shall have the right to participate in any such Capital Loan on a pro rata basis
and on the same terms and conditions applicable to RN Sub. RN Sub shall provide written notice to
MTVN Sub setting forth the proposed interest rate and principal amount for the Capital Loan, and
within six (6) Business Days after receipt of such notice, MTVN Sub shall provide written notice to
RN Sub stating whether MTVN Sub elects to fund its pro rata share thereof. Any Capital Loan shall
be funded within five (5) Business Days after the date of MTVN Sub’s notice to RN Sub.

          SECTION 7.01. Allocations. Except as set forth in that certain side letter dated
August 20, 2007, by and between RN Parent and MTVN Parent, relating to stock options granted to
certain individuals, or as otherwise required pursuant to Section 704(c) of the Code, all items of
income, gain, loss, expense and other tax items shall be allocated to the Members on a pro
rata basis.

          SECTION 7.02. Treatment of Company as Partnership. It is the intention of the Members
that the Company be treated as a partnership for Federal, state and local income tax purposes.
None of the Company, the Joint Committee or any Member shall elect, or cause an election to be
made, to treat the Company as a corporation under Treasury Regulation §301.7701-3(c) for Federal
income tax purposes. The Members agree not to take any action or fail to take any action
(including amendment of this Agreement, so long as such amendment does not materially adversely
affect any Member) which action or inaction would be inconsistent with such treatment.

          SECTION 7.03. Tax Matters Member. (a) Designation. RN Sub is hereby
designated as the tax matters partner within the meaning of Section 6231(a)(7) of

25

 

the Code (“Tax Matters Member”). In such capacity, RN Sub shall have all of the
rights, authority and power, and shall be subject to all of the obligations, of a tax matters
partner to the extent provided in the Code and the Regulations. The Tax Matters Member shall take
such action as may be reasonably necessary to cause each other eligible Member to become a “notice
partner” within the meaning of Code Section 6231(a)(8). The Tax Matters Member shall keep the
Members informed of all administrative and judicial proceedings, as required by Section 6223(g) of
the Code, and shall furnish a copy of each notice or other communication received by the Tax
Matters Member from the Internal Revenue Service to each Member, except such notices or
communications as are sent directly to such Member by the Internal Revenue Service.

          (b) State and Local Tax Law. If any state or local tax law provides for a tax matters
member or person having similar rights, powers, authority or obligations, the Tax Matters Member
shall also serve in such capacity. In all other cases, the Tax Matters Member shall represent the
Company in all tax matters to the extent allowed by law.

          (c) Expenses. Expenses incurred by the Tax Matters Member or in a similar capacity as
set forth in this Section 7.03 shall be borne by the Company as the Company’s expenses. Such
expenses shall include, without limitation, fees of attorneys and other tax professionals,
accountants, appraisers and experts, filing fees and reasonable out of pocket costs.

          (d) Election into TEFRA. In the event that the Company is not subject to the
consolidated audit rules of Sections 6221 through 6234 of the Code during any Fiscal Year, each
Person who was a Member at any time during such Fiscal Year hereby agrees to sign an election
pursuant to Section 6231(a)(1)(B)(ii) of the Code and Regulations Section 301.6231(a)(1)-1(b)(2) to
be filed with the Company’s United States federal income tax return for such Fiscal Year to have
such consolidated audit rules apply to the Company.

          (e) Tax Audits and Litigation. The Tax Matters Member shall keep the Joint Committee
apprised of all material developments in any audit, litigation or other adversarial proceeding
pertaining to the Company.

          (f) Best Interests of Members. The Tax Matters Member shall at all times act in the
best interests of the Members as a whole and not in the best interests of a particular Member.
Before taking any action that would have (or would reasonably be expected to have) a significant
adverse effect on either RN Sub or MTVN Sub, the Tax Matters Member shall reasonably consult in
good faith with such Member, and shall make reasonable efforts to reach agreement with such Member
on a course of action and to mitigate to the extent possible any such adverse effect on such
Member.

          (g) No Liability. The Tax Matters Member shall not be liable in its capacity as such
to the Company or the Members for any losses, claims or damages, except for any losses, claims or
damages arising from such the Tax Matters Member’s fraud, bad faith, or wilful misconduct.

26

 

          SECTION 7.04. Tax Returns, Tax Elections, Consistency. (a) Tax Returns. The
Company shall timely cause to be prepared, at the expense of the Company, all Federal, state, local
and foreign tax returns (including information returns) of the Company and its subsidiaries, which
may be required by a jurisdiction in which the Company or any of its subsidiaries operates or
conducts business for each Fiscal Year (or portion thereof) for which such returns are required to
be filed. Prior to any filing, the Company shall provide draft tax returns to all Members in order
to solicit comments and to identify issues that might cause potential adverse consequences to the
Members. After review and approval by the Joint Committee, the Company shall cause such returns to
be timely filed. In addition, where the Tax Matters Member deems it necessary or advisable, the
Company shall be permitted to file such returns on an extended basis following the timely filing of
an application for an automatic six (6)-month extension of time to file as prescribed by United
States Treasury Regulations. As soon as practicable after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Tax
Matters Member shall furnish to each Member such information in the possession of the Company,
including a Schedule K-1 to IRS Form 1065, as is reasonably required by such Member to file any
required Federal, state, local and foreign tax returns. The Tax Matters Member shall determine
whether any particular planned transfer of Beneficial Economic Rights pursuant to the last sentence
of Section 10.02(b) shall be subject to the limitations of Section 10.01(e) (relating to Section
7704 of the Code), and whether a transferee of any particular Beneficial Economic Rights will be
treated as a partner of the Company for tax purposes.

          (b) Tax Elections. Except as provided in Section 7.02, relating to the classification
of the Company for tax purposes, the Tax Matters Member may, on behalf of the Company, make, but
shall not be obligated to make, any tax election provided under the Code, or any provision of
state, local or foreign tax law. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence,

     (i) at the request of a person who becomes a Member of the Company in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement as a result of a sale or exchange of an interest, the Tax
Matters Member shall cause the Company to make an election pursuant to Section 754 of the
Code (and any similar election under applicable state and local law), and

     (ii) the Tax Matters Member shall cause the Company to adopt the “traditional method”
for purposes of Section 704(c) of the Code (and any similar election under applicable state
and local law).

          (c) Best Interests of Members. The Company and the Tax Matters Member shall at all
times act under Sections 7.04(a) and (b) in the best interests of the Members as a whole and not in
the best interests of a particular Member. Before the Company or Tax Matters Member takes any
action that would have (or would reasonably be expected to have) a significant adverse effect on
either RN Sub or MTVN Sub, including, without limitation, any election to capitalize an item that
could be currently deducted, the Tax Matters Member shall reasonably consult in good faith with
such Member, and shall make reasonable efforts to reach agreement with such Member on a

27

 

course of action and to mitigate to the extent possible any such adverse effect on such
Member.

          (d) Consistency. Except in the case where (i) a Member was not consulted as required
by Section 7.04(c) as to a tax return position that would have (or would reasonably be expected to
have) a significant adverse effect on such Member, or (ii) such Member was consulted, but after
raising an objection to such position was unable to reach agreement on such tax return position, no
Member shall file a Federal, state or local tax return (or take any tax position) that is
inconsistent with the corresponding Federal, state or local tax return of the Company or with the
terms of this Agreement.

          SECTION 7.05. Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the
Joint Committee is authorized to take any and all actions that are necessary or appropriate to
ensure that the Company satisfies any and all withholding and tax payment obligations under Section
1441, 1445, 1446 or any other provision of the Code or other applicable law. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Joint Committee may cause the Company to withhold any amount that
it determines is required to be withheld from amounts otherwise distributable to any Member
pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that such amount shall be deemed to
have been distributed to such Member for purposes of applying this Agreement. Each Member will
timely provide any certification or file any agreement that is required by any taxing authority in
order to avoid or mitigate any withholding obligation that would otherwise be imposed on the
Company.

          SECTION 7.06. Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Company for tax and financial
statement purposes (“Fiscal Year”) shall be the 12-month (or shorter) period ending on
December 31 of each year, unless otherwise required by the Code, or else determined by the Joint
Committee with Unanimous Approval in accordance with Section 9.03.

          SECTION 7.07. Construction and References to Regulations. The provisions of this
Article VII are intended to comply with the Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 704 of
the Code and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with such Treasury
Regulations. Any reference in this Article VII to a provision of the Code or Regulations shall, if
such provision is modified or renumbered, be deemed to refer to the successor provision as so
modified or renumbered, but only to the extent that such successor provision applies to the Company
under the effective date rules applicable to such successor provision.

ARTICLE VIII

Distributions

          SECTION 8.01. Distributions. (a) Any distributions to the Members that are made by
the Company shall require Unanimous Approval in accordance with Section 9.03, and shall be made on
a pro rata basis.

28

 

          (b) No Member shall be entitled to withdraw capital or receive distributions except as
specifically provided herein.

          SECTION 8.02. Tax Distributions. The Company shall, as soon as practicable after the
close of each Fiscal Year, distribute to the Members on a pro rata basis in an
aggregate amount equal to the product of (a) the amount of taxable income allocated to all Members
for such taxable year pursuant to Section 7.02, reduced by the amount of taxable loss allocated to
all Members for all prior taxable years (except to the extent such taxable losses have previously
been taken into account under this sentence) and (b) 38.5%, such percentage to be subject to
adjustment as agreed by the Members from time to time based on changes in tax rates after the
Effective Date (a “Tax Distribution”). The Company may make quarterly distributions during
a Fiscal Year, at the times that estimated tax payments are payable by the Members, based on
estimated tax allocations for the entire Fiscal Year, in which case a “true up” shall be made
between the Company and the Members after the end of such year. Any amounts distributed to a
Member pursuant to this Section 8.02 shall reduce (on a dollar-for-dollar basis until fully
recovered) any distribution to which such Member is otherwise entitled to under Section 8.01(a).
If the Company lacks sufficient cash to make the required Tax Distribution, the Company shall not
be required to borrow any cash for purposes of making such a Tax Distribution, and the Company
shall make an additional Tax Distribution out of the first available cash in subsequent Fiscal
Years to make up for such short fall.

          SECTION 8.03. General Limitations. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Company shall not make any distributions except to the extent permitted under the
Delaware Act. No Member shall have a right to interest or other compensation with respect to its
Contributions or services provided to the Company, except as expressly provided in the License and
Services Agreements and any other separate agreements duly approved by the Joint Committee.

          SECTION 8.04. Distributions in Kind. The Company shall not distribute any assets in
kind, except as provided in Section 13.03.

ARTICLE IX

Management of the Company

          SECTION 9.01. Joint Committee. (a) The business and affairs of the Company shall be
regularly reviewed by a committee of managers (the “Joint Committee”). The Members hereby
designate the members of the Joint Committee as the managers (within the meaning of the Delaware
Act) of the Company, with exclusive rights and responsibilities to direct the business of the
Company. The Joint Committee shall have the power to do any and all acts necessary or convenient
to or for the furtherance of the purpose described herein, including all powers, statutory or
otherwise, possessed by managers under the laws of the State of Delaware.

          (b) The Joint Committee shall be comprised of four members (the “Member
Representatives”). Each Member Representative shall serve without

shall have the right to appoint two Member Representatives and MTVN Sub shall have the right to
appoint two Member Representatives. Each Member Representative shall be an employee of the
appointing Member or one of its Affiliates, unless otherwise agreed by the Members. Each Member
may remove and replace its own Member Representatives at any time and from time to time as
determined in its sole discretion. No Member shall have the right to remove any Member
Representative appointed by another Member. A Member Representative shall hold office until his or
her successor is designated by the applicable Member or until his or her earlier death, resignation
or removal. The Member Representatives as of the Effective Date are set forth on Schedule 5.

          SECTION 9.02. Joint Committee Meetings. (a) The GM shall attend meetings of the
Joint Committee, subject to the right of the Joint Committee to meet in executive session without
the GM as any Member deems appropriate. The Joint Committee shall hold regular meetings at least
quarterly, and special meetings may be called, on not less than 10 days notice, by any Member
Representative or the GM. A Member may waive notice of any meeting at any time, either before or
after such meeting by a writing signed by a Member Representative of such Member. The attendance
of a Member’s Member Representative at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such
meeting unless, at the beginning of such meeting, such Member Representative objects to holding
such meeting or the transaction of business at such meeting on the ground that the meeting is not
properly called or convened. In addition, the Members shall meet with the Joint Committee not less

Quarterly Business Review shall be in Seattle, Washington.

          (b) Any Member Representative may attend a meeting of the Joint Committee in person, by
telephone or by any other electronic communication device. All matters to be acted upon by the
Joint Committee shall be voted on by the Members, in their capacity as Members, rather than by the
individuals serving as such Members’ Member Representatives. In any such vote, each Member shall
be entitled to a number of votes equal to the Participation Percentage of such Member’s Interest.
Each Member entitled to vote at any meeting of the Joint Committee shall authorize one of its
Member Representatives to act on behalf of that Member to express such Member’s vote. At any

          (c) At any meeting of the Joint Committee, any action (other than actions requiring Unanimous
Approval or Contract Party Approval described below) taken by the Joint Committee shall require (i)
the presence of a quorum and (ii) the approval of Members holding Interests having an aggregate
Participation Percentage of at least 50.1%; provided, that if a Defaulting Member shall
have lost its voting rights pursuant to Section 12.01(b), then during the continuance of the
applicable Event of Default, the approval of the remaining Members holding a majority by
Participation Percentage of the remaining Interests shall be sufficient even if their Interests
have an aggregate Participation Percentage less than 50.1%.

          SECTION 9.03. Unanimous Approval. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries
shall engage in any of the following activities without the prior written consent of each Member

33

 

respective Affiliates without the prior written consent of the Person to be bound (“Contract
Party Approval”).

          SECTION 9.05. Business Plans. (a) The business of the Company shall be conducted in
accordance with the initial business plan attached as Schedule 2 hereto (the “Initial Business
Plan”), which includes a summary operating budget for the period from the date of formation of
the Company to the end of the Fiscal Year in which the Company was formed (the “Stub
Period”) and the first full Fiscal Year of the Term and a five-year strategic outlook for the
Company covering the first five full Fiscal Years of the Term, and such strategic outlook shall
include (i) a target capital contribution schedule for each year in such five-year period and (ii)
financial projections covering projected revenues, projected capital and operating expenditures,
projected fully burdened operating profit/loss and projected free cash flow for each year in such
five-year period and shall, for revenue and net income, follow GAAP, and shall otherwise be
prepared on a basis consistent with the Initial Business Plan so as to enable the Budget Financial
Tests to be calculated on a consistent basis.

          (b) As part of (and concurrent with) the annual budget process described in Section 9.06, the
Company shall deliver to the Joint Committee an updated and revised business plan for the Company
(including an updated summary operating budget and five-year strategic outlook covering the Fiscal
Year being budgeted for and the next four Fiscal Years) containing the same level of detail as the
Initial Business Plan. The Company shall make any revisions necessary in order to obtain
Unanimous Approval of such business plan in accordance with Section 9.03 (the Initial Business Plan
and any such updated and revised business plan and strategic outlook obtaining Unanimous Approval,
the “Business Plan”). Once the Business Plan has received Unanimous Approval, any proposed
amendments to such Business Plan must obtain Unanimous Approval to be effective.

          SECTION 9.06. Budgets. (a) The Company shall be operated in accordance with the
Initial Business Plan during the Stub Period and thereafter in accordance with an operating budget
determined pursuant to Section 9.06(b) or Section 9.07, provided, that, for the avoidance
of doubt, Section 9.07 shall not apply to the Fiscal Year of 2008.

          (b) (i) No later than December 14, 2007 with respect to the Fiscal Year of 2008 and (ii) no
later than January 31 of each Fiscal Year with respect to the Fiscal Year of 2009 and each Fiscal
Year of the Term thereafter, the Company shall deliver to the Joint Committee an operating budget
for the Company for such Fiscal Year plus the first fiscal quarter of the next Fiscal Year, which
shall include projected revenues, projected capital and operating expenditures, projected
fully-burdened operating profit/loss, projected free cash flow, projected cash requirements and
reasonable specificity of individual capital expenditure items, in each case, on a quarterly basis,
shall, for revenue and net income, follow GAAP, and shall otherwise be prepared on a basis
consistent with the Initial Business Plan so as to enable the Budget Financial Tests to be
calculated on a consistent basis. The Company shall use its reasonable efforts to make any
revisions necessary in order to obtain Unanimous Approval of such annual operating budget in

34

 

accordance with Section 9.03 (each annual operating budget obtaining Unanimous Approval, the
“Annual Operating Budget”). Once the Annual Operating Budget has received Unanimous
Approval, any proposed amendments to such Annual Operating Budget must obtain Unanimous Approval to
be effective. For the avoidance of doubt, the purpose of budgeting for five fiscal quarters is so
that the Company will have an operating budget to operate under during the first fiscal quarter of
any Fiscal Year while the budget for that Fiscal Year is being finalized.

          SECTION 9.07. Failure to Approve the Annual Operating Budget. (a) Commencing with
the second full Fiscal Year of the Term, if the Joint Committee fails to approve an annual
operating budget for a Fiscal Year prior to February 15 of such Fiscal Year (an “Budget
Approval Failure”), the annual operating budget of the Company shall be determined, in part, by
the application of the following financial tests (the “Budget Financial Tests”):

     (i) actual Revenue of the Company for the most recently completed Fiscal Year as set
forth in the audited financial statements of the Company is at least 80% of the projected
Revenue as set forth in Financial Test Operating Budget applicable to such Fiscal Year;

     (ii) the difference of (x) the projected Fully Burdened Operating Profit/Loss as set
forth in the Financial Test Operating Budget applicable to the most recently completed
Fiscal Year and (y) the actual Fully Burdened Operating Profit/Loss of the Company for the
most recently completed Fiscal Year calculated from the audited financial statements of the
Company is no greater than 6% of the actual Revenue of the Company for the most recently
completed Fiscal Year as set forth in the audited financial statements of the Company if
such actual Revenue does not exceed $[ * ] or 4% of such actual Revenue if such actual
Revenue exceeds $[ * ]; and

     (iii) the difference of (x) the projected Free Cash Flow as set forth in the Financial
Test Operating Budget applicable to the most recently completed Fiscal Year and (y) the
actual Free Cash Flow of the Company for the most recently completed Fiscal Year calculated
from the audited financial statements of the Company is no greater than 6% of the actual
Revenue of the Company for the most recently completed Fiscal Year as set forth in the
audited financial statements of the Company if such actual Revenue does not exceed $[ * ]
or 4% of such actual Revenue if such actual Revenue exceeds $[ * ].

          (b) In the event of a Budget Approval Failure, if any of the Budget Financial Tests has not
been met, then:

     (i) MTVN Sub shall not be required to make any Additional Cash Contributions, RN Sub
shall not be permitted to make any Additional Cash

 

[ * ]   designates portions of this document that have been omitted pursuant to a request for

Contributions and, unless RN Sub shall elect to comply with clause (ii) below, an impasse shall be
deemed to have occurred and the provisions of Section 9.08 shall apply; and

     (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.03, without the approval of MTVN Sub,
RN Sub shall have until March 15 of such Fiscal Year, at its option, to cause the Company
to adopt an annual operating budget for such Fiscal Year (the “RN Annual Operating
Budget”) to be funded by RN Sub in the form of an unsecured loan to the Company (a
“Budget Loan”) on terms set forth in Section 9.07(e); provided that in the
event that the Company generates operating losses during such Fiscal Year which exceed the
amount projected under the applicable Carry-Over Annual Operating Budget had it been
implemented, RN Sub shall be required to contribute (without dilution of MTVN Sub) an
amount to the Company sufficient to satisfy the Company’s operating losses for such Fiscal
Year in excess of the losses projected under the applicable Carry-Over Annual Operating
Budget had it been implemented, not to exceed in the aggregate
$[ * ] (the
“Liability Cap”) for such Fiscal Year.

          (c) In the event of a Budget Approval Failure, if all of the Budget Financial Tests have been
met, the Company shall:

     (i) be subject to an operating budget for such Fiscal Year equal to the product of (x)
the Carry-Over Budget Ratio and (y) the projected operating budget for such Fiscal Year as
set forth in the Company’s most recently approved Business Plan (the “Carry Over Annual
Operating Budget”) and the Members shall only be obligated to fund Additional Cash
Contributions for such Fiscal Year equal to the product of (A) the Carry-Over Budget Ratio
and (B) the projected Additional Cash Contributions for such Fiscal Year as set forth in
the Company’s most recently approved Business Plan; and

     (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.03, without the approval of MTVN Sub,
RN Sub shall have until March 15 of such Fiscal Year, at its option, to cause the Company
to adopt a RN Annual Operating Budget (in lieu of the Carry-Over Annual Operating Budget)
to be funded by RN Sub by a Budget Loan on terms set forth in Section 9.07(e);
provided that in the event that the Company generates operating losses during such
Fiscal Year which exceed the amount projected under the applicable Carry-Over Annual
Operating Budget had it been implemented, RN Sub shall be required to contribute (without
dilution of MTVN Sub) an amount to the Company sufficient to satisfy the Company’s
operating losses for such Fiscal Year in excess of the losses projected under the
applicable Carry-Over Annual Operating Budget had it been implemented, not to exceed in the
aggregate the Liability Cap for such Fiscal Year.

          (d) Any Additional Cash Contributions to be funded pursuant to Section 9.07(c)(i) shall be
funded in accordance with Section 4.04 and be subject to Section 4.05.

 

[ * ]   designates portions of this document that have been omitted pursuant to a request for

36

 

          (e) Any Budget Loan shall (i) have a term ending on the later of (y) the sixth anniversary of
the Effective Date or (z) the second anniversary of the date of such Budget Loan, (ii) be in a
principal amount not to exceed $[ * ] annually, (iii) be in a principal amount that, when
added to the aggregate outstanding principal amounts of all other then outstanding Capital Loans
and Budget Loans, does not exceed the Aggregate Loan Cap, (iv) bear interest at a rate equal to the
Budget Loan Interest Rate and such, interest shall be solely “pay-in-kind” and shall be added to
the principal amount annually and (v) be evidenced solely by a promissory note in the form of
Exhibit C.

          (f) MTVN Sub shall have the right to participate in any such Budget Loan on a pro rata basis
and on the same terms and conditions applicable to RN Sub. RN Sub shall provide written notice to
MTVN Sub setting forth the proposed interest rate and principal amount for the Budget Loan, and
within six (6) Business Days after receipt of such notice, MTVN Sub shall provide written notice to
RN Sub stating whether MTVN Sub elects to fund its pro rata share thereof. Any Budget Loan shall
be funded within five (5) Business days after the date of MTVN Sub’s notice.

          SECTION 9.08. Impasse. (a) If (i) for two consecutive Fiscal Years, (y) there has
been a Budget Approval Failure and (z) any of the Impasse Financial Tests as set forth in Section
9.08(d) below have not been met or (ii) an impasse has occurred pursuant to Section 9.07(b)(i), (in
each case, an “Impasse”) then any Member may at any time provide written notice to the
other Member that an Impasse exists.

          (b) Within 10 days of the receipt of such notice of Impasse by the other Member, the Impasse
shall be submitted to the Chief Executive Officers of MTVN Parent and RN Parent, who shall attempt
in good faith to resolve such matter within 30 days, unless otherwise agreed by each Member.

          (c) If an Impasse has not been resolved by application of the provisions of Section 9.08(b),
then at any time after January 1, 2011, RN Sub may deliver a Call Notice pursuant to Section
10.03(a) and MTVN Sub may deliver a Put Notice pursuant to Section 10.03(b).

          (d) The following financial tests (the “Impasse Financial Tests”) shall be applied in
the determination of an Impasse pursuant to Section 9.08(a)(i). Each test shall be applied in
respect of each of the two most recently completed Fiscal Years:

financial statements of the Company is at least 75% of the projected Revenue as set forth
in Financial Test Operating Budget applicable to such Fiscal Year;

     (ii) the difference of (x) the projected Fully Burdened Operating Profit/Loss as set

ARTICLE X

Transfers of Interests

          SECTION 10.01. Restrictions on Transfers. (a) Except as expressly provided for by
this Article X, no Member shall Transfer all or any part of its or its subsidiaries’ Interests, or
any right pertaining thereto, including the right to receive capital, profits or distributions of
the Company pursuant thereto. To the fullest extent permitted by law, any Transfer in violation of
this Agreement shall be null and void.

          (b) Except as expressly provided for in this Article X, at all times, a Member must be wholly
owned (directly or indirectly) by its Parent. Subject to Section 10.02(b), if at any time a Member
ceases to be wholly owned (directly or indirectly) by its Parent, then such Person shall
automatically cease to be a Member and shall cease to have any rights hereunder and all Interests
held by such Person shall be deemed to be automatically Transferred to such Parent or to another
wholly owned direct or indirect subsidiary of such Parent designated by such Parent, which
subsidiary shall execute and deliver an Adoption Agreement in the form of Exhibit A. Upon such
Transfer, such Parent or subsidiary shall be substituted for such Member for all purposes hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, but subject to Section 10.03(e), the
restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 10.01 shall not prohibit any Sale Transaction;
provided, that the ultimate parent entity of a Member following such Sale Transaction shall
be substituted as the “Parent” of such Member for all purposes hereof, shall execute and deliver an
Adoption Agreement in the form of Exhibit A, and such Member shall continue to have all the rights
and obligations of a “Member” hereunder (it being agreed that if such Member continues to be an
affiliate of MTVN Parent or RN Parent then such ultimate parent entity shall continue to mean MTVN
Parent or RN Parent, as the case may be).

          (c) It shall be a condition to any Transfer not prohibited by this Article X that such
Transfer shall comply with the provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws. Until the Transfer of any Interest has been registered under the Securities Act, such
Interest may not be offered or sold except pursuant to an exemption

40

 

from, or in a transaction not
subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities
laws.

          (d) It shall be a condition to any Transfer not prohibited by this Article X that no
applicable law or judgment issued by any governmental entity which would prohibit such Transfer
shall be in effect, and all consents of, or declarations or filings with, or expirations of waiting
periods imposed by, any governmental entity necessary for the consummation of such Transfer shall
have been obtained or filed or shall have occurred, and each Member agrees to cooperate with the
other Member to provide such information and make such filings as shall be necessary to satisfy as
promptly as practicable the foregoing conditions in connection with a proposed Transfer.

          (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Member shall Transfer any
portion of such Member’s Interest if such Transfer could reasonably cause the Company to be treated
as a “publicly traded partnership” taxable as a corporation within the meaning of Section 7704 of
the Code, as determined by the Joint Committee with Unanimous Approval in accordance with Section
9.03, or as determined by the Tax Matters Member in situations governed by Section 7.04(a).

          SECTION 10.02. Permitted Transfers. (a) The following Transfers shall be permitted
at any time from time to time:

     (i) any Transfer by a Member of its Interests to a wholly owned direct or indirect
subsidiary of such Member’s Parent, subject to the provisions of Section 3.02; and

     (ii) any Transfer by a Member with the prior written consent of the other Member.

          (b) At any time after the fifth anniversary of the Effective Date (the period from the
Effective Date to such fifth anniversary, the “Restricted Period”), (i) any Member may
Transfer all but not less than all its and its Affiliates’ Interests to any other Person and
(ii) the Parent of a Member may Transfer all but not less than all its capital stock, voting
securities, equity interests and Equity Rights in all but not less than all Members for which it is
the Parent to any other Person, in each case, subject to the provisions of this Article X;
provided, that, all references in this Agreement to such Transferring Member (whether RN
Sub or MTVN Sub) or Transferring Parent shall thereafter be deemed to be references to the
applicable Transferee Member or Transferee Parent; provided, further that any Transferee
shall have all rights and obligations of the Transferor under this Agreement, including for the
avoidance of doubt, Article IX and the Put/Call provisions of Section 10.03 and the Tag-Along
provisions of Section 10.04 and the Drag-Along/Right of First Refusal provisions of Section 10.05
to the same extent as the Transferor; provided, further, that if the Transferor is RN
Parent or an Affiliate of RN Parent and the Transferee is not an Affiliate of RN Parent then
thereafter all of the consideration in respect of any Put Notice shall be cash without regard to
the Cash Cap and the provisions of Section 10.03(g)(vi) relating to Adjusted RN Parent Enterprise
Value shall cease to be applicable. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Section

41

 

10.02(b),
at any time after the Restricted Period, any Member may, in one or more transactions, transfer
economic participations in an aggregate of less than 50% of such Member’s and its Affiliates’
beneficial economic rights under this Agreement (the
“Beneficial Economic Rights”) to one or more Persons, and the transfer of such
Beneficial Economic Rights in accordance with this sentence shall not be deemed a Transfer of such
Member’s or its Affiliates’ Interests or rights or obligations under this Agreement, nor will such
transfer trigger any of the put, call, drag-along or tag-along rights hereunder; provided,
that (x) no such transferee shall receive any legal or equitable rights under this Agreement nor
shall any such transferee be an express or implied third party beneficiary of this Agreement and
any such transferee shall look solely to the transferor to enforce its rights pursuant to such
grant; (y) the transferor shall remain fully liable for all its obligations under this Agreement;
and (z) the transferor shall notify each other Member of any such transfer and the identity of the
transferee no later than 30 days prior to such transfer.

          SECTION 10.03. Put/Call Right. (a) (i) During the 30-day period beginning on
January 1 of each of 2013, 2014 and 2015 and every two years thereafter, if MTVN Sub has not issued
a Put Notice pursuant to Section 10.03(b) or (ii) at any time after January 1, 2011, if an Impasse
in accordance with Section 9.08(c) shall have occurred, then RN Sub may deliver to MTVN Sub a
written notice stating that RN Sub is willing to buy all of the Interests held by MTVN Sub and its
Affiliates (the “Call Notice”). If RN Sub delivers a Call Notice, RN Sub shall be
obligated to purchase (directly or through any Affiliate of RN Sub) and MTVN Sub shall be obligated
to sell all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests, at an amount (the “Call Price”) equal to
the greater of (x) the product of the aggregate Participation Percentage of MTVN Sub’s and its
Affiliate’s Interests and the Appraised Value and (y) the original principal amount of the MTVN
Note (the “MTVN Note Value”).

          (b) (i) During the 30-day period beginning on September 1 of the each of 2012, 2013 and 2014
and every two years thereafter, (ii) if, without the prior written consent of MTVN Sub, (A) RN
Parent announces any Extraordinary Transaction during the period from August 1 of any such year to
October 1 of any of 2012, 2013 and 2014 and every two years thereafter, then during the thirty (30)
day period following such announcement (an “Extended Put Notice Period”) or (B) RN Parent
announces any Extraordinary Transaction during an Extended Put Notice Period, then during the
thirty (30) day period following such subsequent announcement, in each case, in addition to and
without limiting MTVN Sub’s rights during the period specified in clause (i) above, or (iii) at any
time after January 1, 2011, if an Impasse in accordance with Section 9.08(c) shall have occurred,
in the case of each of the foregoing clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), MTVN Sub may deliver to RN Sub a
written notice stating that MTVN Sub is willing to sell to RN Sub all of the Interests held by MTVN
Sub and its Affiliates (the “Put Notice”). If MTVN Sub delivers a Put Notice, RN Sub shall
be obligated to purchase (directly or through any Affiliate of RN Sub) and MTVN Sub shall be
obligated to sell all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests at a price equal to the Put Price. The
“Put Price” means, (x) in the case of a Put Notice pursuant to clause (i) or clause (ii) of
the first sentence of this Section 10.03(b), the MTVN Preferred Return Portion with respect to the
Appraised Value and (y) in the case of a Put Notice pursuant to clause (iii) above, the product of
the

42

 

Participation Percentage of MTVN Sub’s and its Affiliates’ Interests and the Appraised Value.

          (c) In the event (i) a Call Notice is delivered, MTVN Sub may elect to receive as
consideration any combination of cash and RN Parent Equity, subject, in the case of RN Parent
Equity, to Section 10.03(f). MTVN Sub shall deliver written notice to RN Sub of its election of
consideration (as a percentage of the total consideration) no later than six (6) Business Days
after the delivery of the Call Notice.

          (d) In the event a Put Notice is delivered, RN Sub (or the purchasing RN Sub Affiliate) shall
provide, in its discretion, as consideration any combination of cash or RN Parent Equity, subject,
in the case of RN Parent Equity, to Section 10.03(e) and Section 10.03(f); provided that RN
Sub (or the purchasing RN Sub Affiliate) shall not provide nor shall it be required to provide as
consideration a number of shares of RN Parent Equity in excess of the Stock Cap or an amount of
cash in excess of the Cash Cap; provided, further, that if the Put Price exceeds
the sum of the Cash Cap and the Stock Cap then, subject to Section 10.03(e) and Section 10.03(f),
RN Sub (or the purchasing RN Sub Affiliate) shall be obligated to provide cash in the amount of the
Cash Cap and RN Parent Equity in the amount of the Stock Cap and the remainder shall be in the form
of subordinated debt of RN Sub on market terms determined by an Investment Bank selected by RN Sub.
In making such determination the Investment Bank shall consider (A) market conditions for issuers
similar to RN Parent and securities similar to those being issued, (B) the actual/estimated credit
rating of RN Parent after giving effect to such issuance and the debt security being issued, (C)
the interest rate environment and credit spreads for similarly issued securities, (F) the current
and projected leverage of RN Parent after giving effect to such issuance and (G) the interest rate,
covenants and other provisions of a comparable security marketed by RN Parent to a third party and
priced at par. RN Sub shall deliver written notice to MTVN Sub of its election of consideration
(as a percentage of the total consideration) no later than six (6) Business Days after the delivery
of the Put Notice. As used herein “Cash Cap” means
the sum of (y) $100 million plus (z) 50% of
the amount by which the unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents on hand of RN Parent (as determined
on the day before delivery of the Put Notice) exceeds
$150 million (before giving effect to any
deduction of the $100 million referred to in (y) above). For the avoidance of doubt, if the
unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents on hand of RN Parent on the day before delivery of the Put
Notice is $250 million, the Cash Cap shall mean $150 million.

          (e) In the event that (x) a Change of Control of RN Parent, (y) sale of substantially all
assets of the RN Sub Music Group or (z) any action or transaction that would result in the Common
Stock ceasing to be listed on NASDAQ without a concurrent listing on the New York Stock Exchange or
the American Stock Exchange, is

43

 

approved, announced or consummated, RN Sub shall thereafter be obligated to offer all of the
consideration for any Put Notice (whether delivered before or after such approval, announcement or
consummation) in the form of cash without regard to the Cash Cap.

          (f) In the event that any portion of the consideration to be provided pursuant to a Call
Notice or a Put Notice is in the form of RN Parent Equity, (i) the number of shares of Common Stock
that RN Sub shall be required to deliver to MTVN Sub shall be limited such that MTVN Sub’s holdings
of outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately following the transaction shall account for less
than 20% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the transaction and (ii) if
the number of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be delivered to MTVN Sub would exceed 15%
of the total shares of Common Stock outstanding after giving effect to the transaction, then RN Sub
shall be entitled to deliver any such excess shares in the form of Non-Voting Equity (the foregoing
clauses (i) and (ii), collectively, the “Stock Cap”). The number of the shares of RN
Parent Equity to be delivered by RN Sub shall be equal to (A) the dollar amount of RN Parent Equity
to be delivered, divided by (B) the Volume Weighted Average Price of the Common Stock over the 30
trading-day period ending immediately prior to the date of the Put/Call Closing (the “Pricing
Period”); provided further that, if an Extraordinary Transaction is publicly
disclosed during such Pricing Period, the Pricing Period and the Put/Call Closing shall be delayed
as necessary to in order to ensure that such Volume Weighted Average Price reflects the effects of
such Extraordinary Transaction.

          (g) In the event a Call Notice or Put Notice is delivered, the Members shall attempt to
mutually agree on the appraised value of 100% of the Interests in the Company (the “Appraised
Value”). If the Members are unable to reach agreement within 30 days from the date of such
Call Notice or Put Notice, as applicable, then each Member shall retain within 21 days thereafter
an appraiser to determine the Appraised Value and shall notify the other Member in writing of its
selection.

     (i) If either Member fails to notify the other Member of its selection within such
21-day period, the sole appraiser selected shall make the determination and such
determination shall be referred to as the Appraised Value and shall be final for purposes
hereof. If each Member so notifies the other Member, then each Member, in consultation
with its appraiser, shall, simultaneously with the other Member, submit its determination
of the Appraised Value (the “Initial Appraised Value”) in writing to such other
Member within 45 days from the date of the selection of such appraisers. If the
determinations of Initial Appraised Value by the appraisers vary by 10% or less from the
average of such two determinations, the Appraised Value shall be the average of the two
determinations. If such determinations vary by more than 10% from the average of such two
determinations, then five (5) Business Days later, the Members shall simultaneously
exchange their adjusted proposal for the Appraised Value (the “Adjusted Proposed
Appraised Value”). If the Adjusted Proposed Appraised Values vary by less than 10%
from the average of the two Adjusted Proposed Appraised Values, the Appraised Value shall
be the average of the Adjusted Proposed Appraised Values. If the Adjusted Proposed
Appraised Values vary by

44

 

more than 10% from the average of the two Adjusted Proposed Appraised Values, then
five (5) Business Days later, Members shall select a third appraiser (the “Third
Appraiser”) by simultaneously exchanging lists of five Investment Banks that have
experience valuing businesses similar to the Company and that did not participate in the
determination of any Initial Appraised Value. The lists shall rank the Investment Banks
from one to five in order of sequential preference. If such lists contain one or more
common names, the Investment Bank with the lowest combined preferential ranking (the sum of
the sequential preference from each list) shall be the Third Appraiser. If two or more
proposed Investment Banks have identical combined preferential rankings, the Third
Appraiser shall be selected based on the proposed appraiser with the identical lowest
combined preferential ranking by coin flip, lottery, or other random means. If such lists
contain no common name, the Members shall immediately request that the two appraisers
chosen by each Member select the Third Appraiser from among the two highest ranked
Investment Banks on each Member’s list, or if the appraisers are unable to agree, then the
Members shall request that New York office of JAMS select the Third Appraiser. If the
Investment Bank initially selected to be the Third Appraiser is unwilling or unable to
serve as the Third Appraiser (or unwilling to serve for a reasonable fee), then the Third
Appraiser shall be selected using the foregoing process but as if such initially selected
Investment Bank had not been proposed by either Member. Within 45 days from the date of
its selection as such, the Third Appraiser shall select the Adjusted Proposed Appraised
Value that it believes is closest to the fair market value of such interests and notify
each Member of such determination of the Appraised Value.

     (ii) In determining the Appraised Value, the appraisers shall not apply any minority
or liquidity discount and shall not apply any synergy premium, but shall assume an open
market sale of 100% of the Company to a third party and shall utilize one or more of the
following valuation methods: (w) analysis of discounted cash flow, (x) publicly-traded
comparable company multiples, (y) comparable precedent transaction multiples and (z) other
accepted valuation methods for businesses similar to the Company at the time of the
appraisal.

     (iii) In determining the Appraised Value, the appraisers shall be required to consider
the actual historical results of the Company and projections included in the most recently
approved Business Plan as the primary source of financial projections for the Company,
while also giving due consideration to other information submitted by the Members.

     (iv) In determining the Appraised Value, the appraisers (v) shall determine the fair
market value as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter (the “Valuation Date”),
(w) shall assume that the Company will continue to operate in the normal course of business
after consummation of the Put/Call Closing, (x) shall not attribute any additional cost or
loss of value to RN Parent’s ability after the Valuation Date to raise prices for, or RN
Parent’s or the Company’s ability to terminate its provision of, services pursuant to the
RN License and Services Agreement (and the Company’s resulting need to obtain replacement
services),

45

 

but instead shall assume that the Company will continue to have the right to purchase
services from RN Parent pursuant to the RN License and Services Agreement on the terms most
recently in effect between the parties as of the Valuation Date provided that with respect
to an Appraised Value in connection with the exercise of the Put or Call in 2012 or 2013,
such terms shall be those most recently in effect, regardless of what other terms may have
been agreed but have not yet taken effect, (y) shall exclude all business and operations
taxes of the State of Washington applicable to services provided or to be provided by RN
Parent to the Company pursuant to the RN License and Services Agreement, (z) shall also
give consideration to the values the assets might bring in an open market sale, (aa) shall
include any remaining monies due under the MTVN Note as a funding source for the Company’s
purchase of advertising from MTVN and (bb) shall increase the total dollar value of their
appraisals by the excess (if any) of $20 million over the value assigned to the Company’s
international digital radio business.

     (v) In determining the Appraised Value, the appraisers shall assume that the parent
company of the Company is converted from a tax partnership to a stand-alone taxable
“C-corporation” pursuant to a tax-free incorporation transaction at the time the Call
Notice or Put Notice is delivered (“Deemed Incorporation”). Accordingly, the
financial projections shall be adjusted by the appraiser in consultation with management of
the Company to reflect the expected future tax burden associated with the Company being a
C-corporation, the expected future tax benefit of various deductions and future net
operating losses and the resulting Appraised Value should reflect the impact of these
adjustments. In addition, for purposes of calculating the potential future tax burden of
the Company, the assumed tax basis of the assets of the Company shall be equal to the tax
basis of the Company’s assets immediately prior to the Deemed Incorporation.

     (vi) For so long as the Common Stock is listed on NASDAQ, the New York Stock Exchange
or the American Stock Exchange, absent extraordinary circumstances, (A) in the case of a
Put Notice, the Appraised Value minus the MTVN Preferred Return Portion with respect to the
Appraised Value shall not exceed the Adjusted RN Parent Enterprise Value at the date of
delivery of the Put Notice and (B) in the case of a Call Notice, the product of (x) the
aggregate Participation Percentage of RN Sub’s and its Affiliates’ Interests and (y) the
Appraised Value, shall not exceed the Adjusted RN Parent Enterprise Value at the date of
delivery of the Call Notice. If such portion of the Appraised Value exceeds the applicable
limit set forth in clause (A) or (B) above, the Appraised Value shall be reduced to the
extent necessary to comply with the applicable limit.

     (vii) The determination of the Appraised Value in accordance with the foregoing
procedure shall be final and binding on the Members and shall be the Appraised Value.

46

 

          (h) A Transfer pursuant to this Section 10.03 shall be consummated at a closing (the
“Put/Call Closing”), at the offices of the Company, within 45 days of notice pursuant to
Section 10.03(g) of the Appraised Value; provided that such period shall be extended for
such additional periods as shall be necessary to obtain any requisite governmental or regulatory
approvals. At the Put/Call Closing (the date and time of which shall be designated by RN Sub and
provided to MTVN Sub in writing at least seven days prior thereto), (i) RN Sub shall pay MTVN Sub
the Call Price or Put Price being sold in the Call Notice or Put Notice, as applicable, together
with interest on such amount accrued at the Budget Loan Interest Rate from the Valuation Date to
the date of the Put/Call Closing, in the form(s) of consideration required pursuant to this
Section 10.03 and (ii) MTVN Sub shall deliver an assignment of its and its Affiliates’ Interests
duly executed by MTVN Sub and its applicable Affiliates, free and clear of any Liens. Any cash
consideration shall be paid by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account
specified by MTVN Sub. RN Parent hereby represents and warrants that any shares of RN Parent
Equity issued to MTVN Sub and its Affiliates shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable, and shall be listed on NASDAQ, the New York Stock Exchange or the American Stock
Exchange. RN Parent and its Board of Directors shall take all actions, including the adoption of
any resolutions, as may be necessary to ensure that any “shareholder rights plan” or similar
takeover defense and anti-takeover statutes are inapplicable to such issuance of shares of RN
Parent Equity, including that none of MTVN Sub or its Affiliates (including for purposes of this
sentence only, Viacom Inc. and its affiliates) will be subject to Section 23B.19 et. seq. of the
Washington Business Corporation Act (including any restriction on “significant business
transactions” with RN Parent under Section 23B.19.40 of the Washington Business Corporation Act) or
any successor statute with respect to or as a result of such issuance of shares of RN Parent
Equity. Concurrent with the delivery of any RN Parent Equity to MTVN Sub and its Affiliates, the
Stockholder Agreement shall become effective.

          SECTION 10.04. Tag-Along Right. (a) At any time and from time to time following the
Restricted Period, if RN Sub or any of its Affiliates seeks to Transfer in any transaction or
series of related transactions all of the Interests of RN Sub and its Affiliates (including an
indirect Transfer through the Transfer of a Member as permitted by Section 10.02(b)(ii)), RN Sub
shall provide written notice (the “Tag-Along Notice”) to MTVN Sub of the identity of the
prospective Transferee, the purchase price, the terms of the prospective Transferee’s financing (if
any and if known), the anticipated date of closing of the proposed Transfer and any other material
terms and conditions of the Transfer (the “Tag-Along Terms”).

          (b) Upon receipt of a Tag-Along Notice, MTVN Sub shall have the right to Transfer all of its
and its Affiliates’ Interests in such proposed Transfer on the Tag-Along Terms, exercisable by
delivering written notice to RN Sub within 10 Business Days from the date of receipt of the
Tag-Along Notice. The right of MTVN Sub pursuant to this Section 10.04(b) shall terminate with
respect to that proposed Transfer if not exercised within such 10-Business Day period.

47

 

          (c) Following the expiration of the 10-Business Day period referred to in Section 10.04(b),
if MTVN Sub shall have exercised its right to participate in such Transfer pursuant to Section
10.04(b), MTVN Sub shall then be entitled and obligated to sell to the prospective Transferee such
all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests on the Tag-Along Terms. All consideration received by RN
Sub, MTVN Sub and their respective Affiliates shall be determined in accordance with Section
10.04(f). MTVN Sub shall be subject, on a several and not a joint basis, to the same
representations and warranties (but only to its knowledge with respect to matters relating to the
Company, it being agreed that the associated indemnity obligation shall be the same as that of RN
Sub), covenants, indemnities (in any event not to exceed the value of consideration to be received
by MTVN Sub and its Affiliates), holdback and escrow provisions, if any, and any similar components
of the Tag-Along Terms to which RN Sub is subject and which have been disclosed as part of the
Tag-Along Notice; provided, however, that neither MTVN Sub nor MTVN Parent nor any
of their respective Affiliates shall be required to be subject to any non-competes, exclusivities
or other restrictions on, or agreements relating to, the businesses of MTVN Parent or any of its
Affiliates, other than the restrictions set forth in Section 2.08 (or a subset thereof), which may
continue to bind MTVN Parent for a reasonable period, not to exceed five (5) years, following the
closing of the Transfer, as disclosed as part of the Tag-Along Notice. Each party shall bear its
own expenses in connection with a Transfer pursuant to this Section 10.04.

          (d) At the closing of the proposed Transfer (which date, place and time shall be designated
by RN Sub and provided to MTVN Sub, if MTVN Sub participates in such Transfer pursuant to Section
10.04(b), in writing at least seven days prior thereto), MTVN Sub shall deliver an assignment
agreement Transferring all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests, duly executed by MTVN Sub and its
applicable Affiliates, free and clear of any Liens, against delivery of the purchase price
therefor.

          (e) In the event that, following delivery of a Tag-Along Notice, the 10-Business Day period
set forth in Section 10.04(b) shall have expired without any exercise of the rights under Section
10.04(b) by MTVN Sub, RN Sub shall have the right, during the 130-day period following the
expiration of such 10-Business Day period, to Transfer to the prospective Transferee the offered
Interests on the Tag-Along Terms, provided, that all consideration received by RN
Sub and its Affiliates shall be determined in accordance with Section 10.04(f). In the event that
RN Sub shall not have consummated such Transfer within such 130-day period, any subsequent Transfer
of the Interests shall once again be subject to the terms of this Section 10.04.

          (f) MTVN Sub shall be entitled to receive the MTVN Preferred Return Portion with respect to
the aggregate value of all consideration payable to MTVN Sub, RN Sub and their respective
Affiliates in connection with all Transfers pursuant to this Section 10.04 in accordance with the
preferred returns set forth in the definition of MTVN Preferred Return Portion.

          SECTION 10.05. Drag-Along Right/Right of First Refusal. (a) At any time following
the Restricted Period, in the event that RN Sub shall have entered into an agreement with any
Person or Persons (such Person, a “Drag-Along Purchaser”)

48

 

regarding the sale of all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests (including the Transfer of a
Member by a Parent as permitted in Section 10.02(b)(ii)) RN Sub shall be entitled, at its option,
to require MTVN Sub to include all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests in such sale (the
“Drag-Along Right”). The Drag-Along Right shall be exercised by written notice (the
“Drag-Along Notice”) to MTVN Sub, at least 30 days prior to signing of the proposed sale,
of the identity of the Drag-Along Purchaser, the consideration offered for RN Sub’s and its
Affiliates’ Interests (the “Drag-Along Price”), the terms of the Drag-Along Purchaser’s
financing (if any and if known), the anticipated date of closing of the proposed Transfer and any
other material terms and conditions of the proposed sale (the “Drag-Along Terms”).

          (b) Upon receipt of the Drag-Along Notice, MTVN Sub shall have the right to purchase and RN
Sub shall be obligated to sell all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests at the Drag-Along Price and
on the Drag-Along Terms (the “Right of First Refusal”), it being agreed that if any portion
of the Drag-Along Price includes non-cash consideration, MTVN Sub may substitute cash or MTVN
Parent stock or debt. The Right of First Refusal shall be exercised by written notice to RN Sub
within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Drag-Along Notice. The Right of First Refusal shall
terminate if not exercised within such 10-Business Day period.

          (c) In the event that the Right of First Refusal is exercised pursuant to Section 10.05(b),
at the closing of such Transfer (which date, place and time shall be designated by MTVN Sub and
provided to RN Sub in writing at least seven days prior thereto; provided that such date
shall be no later than the date of closing proposed in the Drag-Along Terms (subject to reasonable
extension for regulatory filings)), RN Sub shall deliver an assignment agreement Transferring its
and its Affiliates’ Interests, duly executed by RN Sub and its applicable Affiliates, free and
clear of any Liens, against delivery of the purchase price therefor.

          (d) In the event the Right of First Refusal is terminated pursuant to Section 10.05(b), MTVN
Sub shall be obligated to sell all of its and its Affiliates’ Interests to the Drag-Along Purchaser
on the Drag-Along Terms at a price equal to the greater of (i) the product of (x) the ratio of the
Participation Percentage of MTVN Sub’s Interests over the Participation Percentage of RN Sub’s
Interest and (y) the Drag-Along Price and (ii) the MTVN Note Value; provided, that (A) if
(1) the consideration offered to MTVN Sub by the Drag-Along Purchaser is not Liquid, (2) such
consideration would, in the reasonable judgment of MTVN Sub (to be confirmed by MTVN Sub’s outside
counsel if so requested by RN Sub), cause MTVN Sub, MTVN Parent or any of their respective
Affiliates to be subject to any statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation promulgated by any
Governmental Entity (as defined in the Transaction, Contribution and Purchase Agreement) (other
than securities laws) that would not otherwise restrict such Persons or (3) the exercise of such
Drag-Along Right is related to a transaction or series of transactions involving a Change of
Control of RN Parent, then MTVN Sub shall be entitled to elect to receive 100% of the consideration
in the form of cash in an amount equal to the price determined as set forth above and (B) MTVN Sub,
shall be subject, on a several and not a joint basis, to the same representations and warranties
(but only to its knowledge with respect to matters relating to the Company, it being agreed that
the

49

 

associated indemnity obligation shall be the same as that of RN Sub), indemnities (in any
event not to exceed the value of consideration to be received by MTVN Sub and its Affiliates),
holdback and escrow provisions, if any, and any similar components of the Drag-Along Terms to which
RN Sub is subject and which have been disclosed as part of the Drag-Along Notice to the extent
known at the time of the giving such Drag-Along Notice, provided, however, that
neither MTVN Sub nor MTVN Parent nor any of their respective Affiliates shall be subject to any
non-competes, exclusivities or other restrictions on, or agreements relating to, the businesses of
MTVN Parent or any of its Affiliates. MTVN Sub shall make its election as to form of consideration
by written notice to RN Sub within 10 Business Days after receipt of the Drag-Along Notice. At the
closing of such Transfer (which anticipated date, place and time shall be designated in the
Drag-Along Terms), each of MTVN Sub and RN Sub shall deliver an assignment agreement Transferring
all of its and its Affiliates’ respective Interests, duly executed by MTVN Sub or RN Sub and their
respective applicable Affiliates, as applicable, free and clear of any Liens, against delivery of
the respective purchase price therefor.

          (e) Each party shall bear its own expenses in connection with a Transfer pursuant to this
Section 10.05.

ARTICLE XI

Limitation on Liability, Exculpation

          SECTION 11.01. Limitation on Liability. The debts, obligations and liabilities of
the Company, whether arising in contract, tort or otherwise, shall be solely the debts, obligations
and liabilities of the Company, and no Covered Person shall be obligated personally for any such
debt, obligation or liability of the Company; provided, however, that the foregoing
shall not alter any Member’s obligation to make Contributions pursuant to Article IV or Article IX
when and to the extent the same shall become due pursuant thereto or any Member’s obligation to
return funds wrongfully distributed to it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this
Article XI shall alter or reduce a current or former employee’s obligations or liabilities to the
Company under any employment, non-compete, non-solicitation, or other agreement related to such
Person’s current or former employment by the Company.

          SECTION 11.02. Exculpation of Covered Persons. (a) Except as expressly provided
herein, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (including Section 18-1101 of the
Delaware Act), no Covered Person shall be liable, including under any legal or equitable theory of
fiduciary duty or other theory of liability, to the Company or to any other Covered Person for any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities incurred by reason of any act or omission performed or
omitted by such Covered Person on behalf of the Company arising from, related to, or in connection
with, this Agreement or the Company’s business or affairs, except for any losses, claims, damages
or liabilities arising from such Covered Person’s fraud, bad faith, or wilful misconduct.

          (b) Whenever in this Agreement a Member or Member Representative is permitted or required to
make decisions, such Member or Member Representative may

50

 

make such decisions with regard to the interests of the Company or the interests of a Member
and its Affiliates, as such Person may determine in its sole discretion, and such Person shall not
be subject to any other or different standard (including any legal or equitable standard of
fiduciary or other duty) imposed by this Agreement or any relevant provisions of law or in equity
or otherwise. The provisions of this Agreement, to the extent that they restrict or eliminate the
duties and liabilities of a Member or Member Representative otherwise existing at law or in equity,
are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of such Member or
Member Representative.

          (c) Officers and employees of the Company shall be expected to perform their duties and make
decisions in furtherance of the best interests of the Company, regardless of whether such officers
or employees are designated by a particular Member. Such officers and employees shall be subject
to (i) the same fiduciary duties of care and loyalty as are employees and officers of corporations
under the law of the State of Delaware and (ii) notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.02(a),
liability for losses, claims, damages or liabilities arising from such person’s gross negligence in
the performance of such duties (in addition to any liabilities arising from such person’s fraud,
bad faith or wilful misconduct).

          (d) A Covered Person shall be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the records of
the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Company,
the Joint Committee or management of the Company by any Person as to matters the Covered Person
reasonably believes are within such Person’s professional or expert competence.

          SECTION 11.03. Renunciation of Corporate Opportunities. (a) If any Member or any
employee, officer, director, agent, stockholder, member, manager, partner or Affiliate of any of
the foregoing (other than an employee or officer of the Company) acquires knowledge of a potential
transaction or matter which may be a Corporate Opportunity or otherwise is then exploiting any
Corporate Opportunity, the Company shall have no interest in such Corporate Opportunity and no
expectancy that such Corporate Opportunity be offered to the Company, any such interest or
expectancy being hereby renounced, so that, as a result of such renunciation, and for the avoidance
of doubt, such Person (i) shall have no duty to communicate or present such Corporate Opportunity
to the Company, (ii) shall have the right to hold any such Corporate Opportunity for its (and/or
its officers’, directors’, agents’, stockholders’, members’, managers’, partners’ or Affiliates’)
own account or to recommend, sell, assign or transfer such Corporate Opportunity to Persons other
than the Company or any subsidiary of the Company and (iii) shall not breach any fiduciary or other
duty to the Company, in such Person’s capacity as a Member or otherwise, by reason of the fact that
such Person pursues or acquires such Corporate Opportunity for itself, directs, sells, assigns or
transfers such Corporate Opportunity to another Person, or does not communicate information
regarding such Corporate Opportunity to the Company.

          (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 11.03, the Company does not renounce any
interest or expectancy it may have in any Corporate Opportunity that is offered to an employee or
officer of the Company who is also a director, officer or

51

 

employee of any Member or their respective Affiliates if such opportunity is expressly offered
to such Person in his or her capacity as an employee or officer of the Company.

          (c) Except as otherwise expressly provided in any other agreement to which the Members may be
a party, (i) the Members and their employees, officers, directors, agents, stockholders, members,
managers, partners and Affiliates may engage or invest in, independently or with others, any
business activity of any type or description, including those that might be the same as or similar
to the Company’s business or the business of any subsidiary of the Company, (ii) none of the
Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any Person Beneficially Owning Interests shall have any
right in or to such business activities or ventures or to receive or share in any income or
proceeds derived therefrom and (iii) to the extent required by applicable law in order to
effectuate the purpose of this Section 11.03, the Company shall have no interest or expectancy, and
specifically renounces any interest or expectancy, in any such business activities or ventures.

          SECTION 11.04. Indemnification. (a) The Company shall, to the fullest extent
permitted under the Delaware Act as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case
of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Company to provide
broader indemnification rights than said law permitted the Company to provide prior to such
amendment), indemnify and hold harmless each Covered Person (and the Company shall be authorized
with approval of the Joint Committee in accordance with Section 9.02(c) to indemnify any employee
of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company) against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines or penalties and amounts paid or to be
paid in settlement) incurred or suffered by him or her arising from any threatened, pending or
completed action, suit, investigation or proceeding relating to the Company’s business and affairs,
except (i) for direct or derivative claims of the Company or any of its subsidiaries against such
Covered Person or claims of a Member against such Covered Person or (ii) where such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses resulted from the fraud, bad faith or wilful misconduct of such
indemnified Person or a breach by such indemnified Person of the covenants and express obligations
set forth in this Agreement or the representations, warranties, covenants or obligations set forth
in any other Transaction Document. The right to indemnification conferred in this Agreement shall
be a contract right and shall include the right to be paid by the Company, the expenses (including
attorney’s fees) incurred in defending any such proceeding in advance of its final disposition,
such advances to be paid by the Company within 20 days after the receipt by the Company of a
statement or statements from the claimant requesting such advance or advances from time to time,
subject to the Company’s receipt of a written undertaking of the indemnified Person to repay any
such advances if it shall be finally judicially determined that such Person was not entitled to be
indemnified by the Company in connection with such suit, investigation or proceeding.

          (b) The obligations of the Company under this Section 11.04 shall be satisfied solely out of
and to the extent of the Company’s assets, and no Covered Person shall have any personal liability
on account thereof.

52

 

          (c) The Company may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any Member,
Member Representative, officer, employee or agent of the Company or another limited liability
company, corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense,
liability or loss, whether or not the Company would have the power to indemnify such Person against
such expense, liability or loss under the Delaware Act.

ARTICLE XII

          SECTION 12.01. Events of Default. (a) An “Event of Default” with respect to

Agreement;

     (ii) a Contribution Default of such Member;

     (iii) the Bankruptcy of such Member or its Parent; and

“Defaulting Member”), such Defaulting Member shall lose its rights to vote with respect to
decisions requiring approval of the Joint Committee and its rights of Unanimous Approval pursuant
to Section 9.03, other than (A) its right to approve amendments to this Agreement that would (x)
impose new obligations or liabilities on such Defaulting Member or the Parent of such Defaulting
Member or any of their Affiliates or (y) have a disproportionately adverse effect on the rights of
such Defaulting Member under this Agreement relative to the effect of such amendment on the other
Member and (B) its right to approve matters described in Section 10.01(e).

          (c) The rights and remedies referred to in this Section 12.01 shall be in addition to, and not
in limitation of, any other rights or remedies available to any non-defaulting Member or the
Company under this Agreement or at law or in equity.

          SECTION 12.02. Events of Withdrawal. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement,

     (v) the Bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution of a Member or the occurrence of any
other event that terminates the continued membership of a Member (in either case, the
“Bankrupt Member”), unless RN Sub, if MTVN Sub is the Bankrupt Member, or MTVN Sub,
if RN Sub is the Bankrupt Member, or each of RN Sub and MTVN Sub, if any other Member is

insolvency or dissolution or unless each of the other Members agrees to continue the
Company within 90 days of such Bankruptcy, insolvency or dissolution; and

     (vi) the end of the Term.

          SECTION 13.02. Winding Up of the Company. (a) Upon dissolution, the Company’s
business shall be liquidated in an orderly manner. Members holding a majority of the Interests may

liquidation. In performing its duties, the liquidation trustee is authorized to sell, distribute,
exchange or otherwise dispose of the assets of the Company in accordance with the Delaware Act and
in any reasonable manner that the liquidation trustee shall determine to be in the best interest of
the Members with the goal of maximizing the proceeds to the Members.

          (b) The proceeds of the liquidation of the Company shall be distributed in the following order
and priority:

     first, to the creditors (including any Members or their respective
Affiliates that are creditors) of the Company in satisfaction of all of the
Company’s liabilities (whether by payment or by making reasonable

54

 

provision for payment thereof, including the setting up of any reserves which
are, in the judgment of the liquidation trustee, reasonably necessary therefor);
and

(i) second, to the Members on a pro rata basis.

(c) Upon liquidation, the License and Services Agreements shall be terminated.

          SECTION 13.03. Distribution of Property. In the event it becomes necessary in
connection with the liquidation of the Company to make a distribution of property in kind, subject
to the priority set forth in Section 13.02, the liquidation trustee shall have the right to compel
each Member to accept a distribution of any asset in kind, so long as the portion of such asset to
be distributed is determined based upon the amount of cash that would be distributed to such Member
if such property were sold for an amount of cash equal to the fair market value of such property,
as determined by the liquidation trustee in good faith.

          SECTION 13.04. Claims of Members. No Member shall have a right to demand a return of

inure to the benefit of all the parties hereto and their successors and assigns, and their legal
representatives. No Member may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or
obligations in connection with a Transfer of Interests hereunder except to the extent such rights,
interests and obligations relate to Interests and the Transfer of such Interests is in accordance
with this Agreement and is provided for or contemplated herein. Except as provided in Article XI,
this Agreement is not intended to confer any rights or remedies hereunder upon, and shall not be
enforceable by, any Person other than the parties hereto.

          SECTION 14.03. Waiver. No failure by any party to insist upon the strict performance
of any covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement or to exercise any right or remedy
consequent upon a breach of such or any other covenant, agreement, term or condition shall operate
as a waiver of such or any other covenant, agreement, term or condition of this Agreement. Any
party by notice given in accordance with Section 14.01 may, but shall not be under any obligation
to, waive any of its rights or conditions to its obligations hereunder, or any duty, obligation or
covenant of any other party. No waiver shall affect or alter the remainder of this Agreement but
each and every covenant, agreement, term and condition hereof shall continue in full force and
effect with respect to any other then existing or subsequent breach. The rights and remedies
provided by this Agreement are cumulative and the exercise of any one right or remedy by any party

          SECTION 14.04. Integration. This Agreement, the other Transaction Documents and all
other written agreements contemporaneously entered into herewith by the parties constitute the
entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersede all
prior agreements and understandings of the parties in connection herewith, and no covenant,
representation or condition not expressed in this Agreement shall affect, or be effective to
interpret, change or restrict, the express provisions of this Agreement.

          SECTION 14.05. Headings. The titles of Articles and Sections of this Agreement are

and the same instrument and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed
by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

          SECTION 14.07. Severability. Each provision of this Agreement shall be considered
separable and if for any reason any provision or provisions hereof are determined to be invalid and
contrary to any existing or future law, such invalidity shall not impair the operation of or affect
those portions of this Agreement which are valid; provided, however, that in such
case the Members shall endeavor to amend or modify this

56

 

Agreement to achieve to the extent reasonably practicable the purpose of the invalid
provision.

          SECTION 14.08. Amendments and Modifications. Subject to Section 3.02(a), this

          SECTION 14.12. Confidentiality. Each Member expressly acknowledges that such Member
may receive confidential and proprietary information relating to the Company, including information
relating to the Company’s financial condition and business plans, and that the disclosure of such
confidential information to a third party would cause irreparable injury to the Company. Except
with the prior written consent of the Company, no Member shall disclose any such information to a
third party (other than on a “need to know” basis to any Affiliate or any employee, agent,
representative or contractor of such Member or its Affiliates), and each Member shall use
reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of such information. The obligations of a
Member under this Section 14.12 shall survive the termination of this Agreement or cessation of a
Member’s status as a Member for a period of two years. Information exchanged between Members shall
be non-confidential unless exchanged pursuant to a separate confidentiality agreement executed
between such Members. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member shall not be bound by the
confidentiality obligations in this Section 14.12 with respect to any information that is currently
or becomes (a) required to be disclosed by such Member pursuant to applicable law, including
Federal or state securities laws, or a domestic national securities exchange rule (but in each case
only to the extent of such requirement), (b) required to be disclosed in order to protect such
Member’s Interests or enforce such Member’s rights under this Agreement (but in each case only to
the extent of such requirement and only after consultation with the Company), (c) publicly known or

in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event of ambiguity or question of
intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointed by such

virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

          SECTION 14.15. Expenses. Each Member shall be responsible for its own expenses
incurred in connection with this Agreement, other than reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Tax
Matters Member pursuant to 7.03(c) which shall be borne by the Company.

SCHEDULE 9

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Article I

Dispute Resolution. (a) Any and all disputes arising out of or relating to any provision
of this Agreement, except as set forth in paragraph (g), shall be resolved exclusively pursuant to
arbitration conducted in Seattle, Washington and administered by JAMS or any successor entity
thereto (“JAMS”), in accordance with its Comprehensive Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”) as
modified by the provisions herein. The arbitration shall be conducted by a panel of three (3)
arbitrators (the “panel”). Each party shall select one arbitrator (a “party arbitrator”) and the
two party arbitrators shall select a third arbitrator, who will be the Chairperson. The persons
considered for selection as arbitrators hereunder shall not be limited to persons identified by
JAMS. All three arbitrators shall be neutral and independent of the appointing party. There shall
be no ex parte communications with the party arbitrators after the first organizational meeting.
The confidentiality of all proceedings related to any arbitration shall be strictly maintained, as
shall the confidentiality of any documents, deposition testimony, or other information exchanged in
relation to the arbitration proceedings (except as information may be required in any judicial
proceeding brought to enforce these arbitration provisions or any award rendered hereunder).

(b) Without limiting the generality of paragraph (a), it is understood that this Article does not
apply to any disputes concerning intellectual property rights, other than to disputes arising out
of any express grant or license of any intellectual property rights owned or controlled by any of
the parties to this Agreement and made or allegedly made to one another or to the Company pursuant
to any of the transaction documents entered into in connection with the creation of the Company,
including but not limited to disputes relating to the scope, nature or duration of such grant or
license, whether there has been a grant or license of certain intellectual property rights, and/or
the applicable terms, conditions, limitations, representations and warranties and indemnities
relating to or arising from any such grant or license, all of which disputes, for the avoidance of
doubt, shall be subject to arbitration pursuant to the terms hereof.

(c) Prior to commencing arbitration, a party shall deliver notice of the applicable dispute to the
other parties and the parties shall meet and discuss possible resolution of such dispute. Within
thirty (30) days of delivery of notice of a dispute, senior executives of the MTVN Music Group and
RN Parent shall meet and attempt to negotiate a resolution. After notice and the expiration of
such thirty (30) day period either party may commence arbitration.

(d) The panel shall be requested to use reasonable efforts to render its decision and award within
six (6) months of the first organizational meeting. The panel shall allow reasonable discovery,
relevant to the issues before it, subject to the goal of completing the proceedings within the
specified time frame. Except with respect to custodial depositions, depositions shall be limited
to a maximum total number of fifty hours for each party, except in extraordinary cases. The
decision of the panel shall be final.

 

 

SCHEDULE 9

(e) The panel shall render findings of fact and conclusions of law and a written opinion setting
forth the basis and reasons for any decision reached. In rendering an award, the panel shall
determine the rights and obligations of the parties according to the substantive laws of the State
of Delaware and of the United States.

(f) The panel shall have the authority to grant any equitable or legal relief that would be
available in any judicial proceeding instituted to resolve the disputed matter, including interim
relief, but the panel shall not have the authority to grant any remedies the parties have waived in
the Agreement or to award punitive or exemplary damages. The panel shall have the authority to
award costs, including reasonable attorneys fees, of any arbitration.

(g) Each of the parties agrees that it will not bring any action relating to the interpretation,
application or enforcement of the provisions of this Article or seeking emergency or temporary
relief prior to appointment of the panel in any court other than a Federal or state court sitting
in the State of Delaware, and the laws of the State of Delaware shall apply to any such action.
With respect to any such action, each of the parties hereby consents to and submits itself and its
property to the personal jurisdiction of any Federal or state court located in the State of
Delaware. Each of the parties hereby waives any rights such party may have to personal service of
a summons, complaint or other process in connection with such an action and agrees that service may
be made by registered or certified mail addressed to such party and sent in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement. The parties acknowledge and agree that upon appointment of the
panel, it shall have the exclusive authority to grant relief.

(h) The parties hereby also consent to the personal jurisdiction of any Federal or state court in
the County of New York or in Seattle, Washington, for the purpose of confirming any award and
entering judgment thereon. The parties hereby waive any and all objections that they may have as
to jurisdiction or venue in any of such courts.
