Agreement and the PD LLC Notes and (II) the Borrower fails to deliver the audited annual financial statements and related compliance 

 
certificate required to be delivered pursuant to said Sections within 90 days after the close of the fiscal year of the Borrower ended September 28,

waiver of the Specified Events of Default shall cease to be of any force or effect (v) on the Business Day immediately following the first Quarterly Payment Date in 2009 (the “Waiver Termination Date”), at which time each
Specified Event of Default then existing under the Credit Agreement will constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Credit Agreement without regard to this Second Waiver, (w) at any time on or after the date hereof and prior to the
Waiver Termination Date, a Default or an Event of Default (other than the Specified Events of Default) exists under the Credit Agreement, at which time each Specified Event of Default then existing under the Credit Agreement will constitute an
immediate Event of Default under the Credit Agreement without regard to this Second Waiver, (x) at any time on or after the date hereof and prior to the Waiver Termination Date, any of the holders of the PD LLC Notes shall take any action to
enforce their rights or remedies under any of the PD LLC Notes Documents or applicable law, at which time each Specified Event of Default then existing under the Credit Agreement will constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Credit

 -2- 

 
at which time each Specified Event of Default then existing under the Credit Agreement will constitute an immediate Event of Default under the Credit
Agreement without regard to this Second Waiver. 
 2. In order to induce the Lenders to grant the waivers set forth in preceding
Section 1 of Part I of this Second Waiver, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Credit Agreement, during the period from December 15, 2008 until such time as the Required Lenders otherwise agree in writing:

 (i) in connection with any requested Borrowing of Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans pursuant to Section 2.03 of the
Credit Agreement, and as a condition precedent to any such Borrowing (in addition to the other conditions precedent contained in the Credit Agreement), the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent together with the relevant Notice of
Borrowing, a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying (x) in detail reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, as to the use of the proceeds of such Borrowing and (y) that as of the date of such requested Borrowing, the

shall be made within two Business Days of the date of such Borrowing and the proceeds thereof applied in a manner consistent with the foregoing certifications) and from any other Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents then held or owned by the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries (to the extent such proceeds and/or other Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents are to be utilized by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries within two Business Days of such date for a permitted purpose under the Credit
Agreement (after giving effect to this Second Waiver) other than an Investment in Unrestricted cash and Cash Equivalents or in a Subsidiary of the Borrower), shall not exceed $15,000,000 (with all determinations of the amount of Unrestricted cash

 (iii) without limiting the obligations of the Borrower under the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees that it shall pay all reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and consultants of the Administrative
Agent (including, without limitation, White & Case LLP and Alvarez & Marsal North America, LLC (“A&M”)) within ten Business Days of the receipt of any invoice evidencing any such fees or disbursements; 
  

 -3- 

 (iv) the Borrower hereby confirms and agrees that it shall (x) at the request of the
Administrative Agent, cause the Borrower’s senior management, and use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Borrower’s financial and legal advisors, to (I) discuss (telephonically), on not less than a bi-weekly basis during
regular business hours and for reasonable durational periods, with the Administrative Agent, its legal and financial advisors and the Lenders identified by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower as the steering committee (the “Steering
Committee”), among other things, the ongoing financial performance and operations, liquidity and progress with respect to any asset sale, merger, consolidation or other business combination, equity infusion, change of control transaction or
restructuring plan or similar proposal with respect to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, in each case having a fair market value or transaction value in excess of $5,000,000 (each, a “Proposed Transaction”) and (II) provide A&M
and its personnel with access to certain books, records, reports and other information of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at reasonable times and locations, in each case to the extent reasonably requested by A&M and to otherwise reasonably
cooperate with A&M and its personnel in connection with its analysis of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and (y) promptly deliver (and in any event, within two Business Days of receipt thereof by the Borrower) to the Administrative Agent

financial or legal advisors with respect to any Proposed Transaction; 
 (v) the Borrower hereby confirms and agrees that,
from and after the Second Waiver Effective Date (as hereinafter defined), it shall deliver, by no later than the first Business Day of each other week (beginning on January 5, 2009), a forecast for the succeeding 13-week period of the projected
consolidated cash flows of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, together with a variance report of actual cash flow for the immediately preceding period for which a forecast was delivered against the then current forecast for such
preceding period; and 
 (vi) the Borrower hereby confirms and agrees that it shall promptly deliver to the Administrative
Agent any notices received from Herald or any holders of the PD LLC Notes in connection with any action to enforce their rights or remedies under any of the PD LLC Operating Agreement, the PD LLC Notes Documents or applicable law. 
 The Borrower hereby further acknowledges and agrees that each of the covenants set forth above in this Section 2 shall constitute a covenant for purposes of the
Credit Agreement (including for the purposes of Section 11.03 of the Credit Agreement). 
 3. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and
agree that (a) the Lenders have not waived any existing or future Defaults or Events of Default under the Credit Agreement (other than the Specified Events of Default on the terms provided for herein), (b) no course of dealing shall be
deemed to be established as a consequence of the Lenders agreeing to waive the Specified Events of Default as provided in this Second Waiver and continuing to make Loans and issue and participate in Letters of Credit on the terms described in
Section 2 of Part I of this Second Waiver and (c) subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2 of Part I of this Second Waiver, all Credit Events shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement.

	II.	Miscellaneous Provisions. 

 1. In order to induce
the Lenders to enter into this Second Waiver, the Borrower hereby represents and warrants that (i) no Default or Event of Default exists as of the Second Waiver Effective Date (as defined below), immediately after giving effect to this Second
Waiver on such date, (ii) all of the representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement and in the other Credit Documents are true and correct in all material respects on the Second Waiver Effective Date, immediately after giving
effect to this Second Waiver on such date, with the same effect as though such representations and warranties had been made on and as of the Second Waiver Effective Date (it being understood that any representation or warranty made as of a specific
date shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such specific date), and (iii) this Second Waiver has been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of each Credit Party, has been duly executed and delivered by each
Credit Party and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Credit Party, enforceable against each of them in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law. 
 2. The Credit Parties acknowledge and agree and hereby represent and warrant that (x) the Credit Agreement (as modified hereby) and each other Credit Document, and all Obligations and Liens thereunder, are valid
and enforceable against the Credit Parties in every respect and all of the terms and conditions thereof are legally binding upon the Credit Parties, in each case all without offset, counterclaims or defenses of any kind and (y) the perfected
status and priority of each Lien and security interest created under each Security Document remains in full force and effect in accordance with the requirements of the Credit Agreement on a continuous basis, unimpaired, uninterrupted and
undischarged, in each case as of the Second Waiver Effective Date, both immediately before and immediately after giving effect to this Second Waiver on such date. 
 3. In further consideration of the Lenders’ execution of this Second Waiver, each Credit Party unconditionally and irrevocably acquits and fully forever releases and discharges each Lender, each Issuing Lender,
the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and all affiliates, partners, subsidiaries, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, principals, directors and shareholders of such Persons, and their respective heirs, legal representatives, successors
and assigns (collectively, the “Releasees”) from any and all claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, remedies, suits, damages and liabilities of any nature whatsoever, whether now known, suspected or claimed, whether arising
under common law, in equity or under statute, which such Credit Party ever had or now has against any of the Releasees and which may have arisen at any time prior to the date hereof and which were in any manner related to this Second Waiver, the
Credit Agreement, any other Credit Document or related documents, instruments or agreements or the enforcement or attempted or threatened enforcement by any of the Releasees of any of their respective rights, remedies or recourse related thereto
(collectively, the “Released 

  

 -5- 

 
Claims”). Each Credit Party covenants and agrees never to commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute or cause to be commenced or prosecuted
against any of the Releasees any action or other proceeding based upon any of the Released Claims. 
 4. This Second Waiver is limited as
specified and shall not constitute a modification, acceptance or waiver of any other provision of the Credit Agreement or any other Credit Document. 
 5. This Second Waiver may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which counterparts when executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of
which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. A complete set of counterparts shall be lodged with the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. 
 6. THIS SECOND WAIVER AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW
PRINCIPLES. 
 7. This Second Waiver shall become effective on the date (the “Second Waiver Effective Date”) when each
of the following conditions shall have been satisfied: 
 (i) the Borrower, each other Credit Party and Lenders constituting
the Required Lenders shall have signed a counterpart hereof (whether the same or different counterparts) and shall have delivered (including by way of facsimile or other electronic transmission) the same to White & Case LLP, 1155 Avenue of

 (ii) the Borrower shall have paid (x) to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders all fees, costs and expenses (including, without limitation, legal fees and expenses of White and Case LLP and financial advisor

Administrative Agent $150,000 as a retainer for A&M (it being understood and agreed that each such retainer shall be an “evergreen” retainer and shall not be deemed to be a “cap” on the costs, fees and expenses and that the
receipt of such retainer shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, or the obligations of the Borrower under Section 13.01 of the Credit Agreement or Section 2 of Part I of this Second Waiver).

 8. The Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that, so long as the Second Waiver Effective Date occurs, it shall pay to each Lender which
executes and delivers to the Administrative Agent (or its designee) a counterpart hereof by 5:30 P.M. (New York City time) on December 22, 2008 (or, if later, on the Second Waiver Effective Date), a non-refundable cash fee (the “Waiver
Fee”) in Dollars in an amount equal to 7.5 basis points (0.075%) on an amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans of such Lender 

  

 -6- 

 
outstanding on the Second Waiver Effective Date (immediately prior to the occurrence thereof) plus (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitment of such
Lender as in effect on the Second Waiver Effective Date (immediately prior to the occurrence thereof). The Waiver Fee shall not be subject to counterclaim or set-off, or be otherwise affected by, any claim or dispute relating to any other matter.
The Waiver Fee shall be paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent for distribution to the relevant Lenders not later than the Business Day following the Second Waiver Effective Date. 
 9. By executing and delivering a copy hereof, each Credit Party hereby agrees that all Obligations of the Credit Parties shall be fully guaranteed
pursuant to the Subsidiaries Guaranty and shall be fully secured pursuant to the Pledge Agreements, in each case in accordance with the respective terms and provisions thereof and that this Second Waiver does not in any manner constitute a novation
of any Obligations under any of the Credit Documents 
 10. From and after the Second Waiver Effective Date, all references in the Credit
Agreement and each of the other Credit Documents to the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to be references to the Credit Agreement as modified hereby.

 Attention: Mr. Ronald H. Ridgway 
 Reference is
made to: 
  

	 	(a)	the Operating Agreement of St. Louis Post-Dispatch LLC (“SPD”), dated as of May 1, 2000, among The Herald Company, Inc. (“Herald”) Pulitzer Inc.
(“Pulitzer”) and Pulitzer Technologies, Inc. (“PTI”) (the “Post-Dispatch Operating Agreement”); 

  

	 	(b)	the Indemnity Agreement, dated May 1, 2000, between Herald and Pulitzer; and 

  

	 	(c)	the Operating Agreement of STL Distribution Services LLC, dated May 31, 2001, among Herald, Pulitzer and PTI, as amended (the “STL Operating Agreement,” together with
the Post-Dispatch Operating Agreement, the “Operating Agreements”), 

 and in the case of the two Operating Agreements, as

 On December 31, 2006, Herald intends to assign all of its

of the date hereof, will be true on December 31, 2006 and that all of the assets of the nature described in such letter will be transferred to HPC on December 31, 2006. Herald agrees to indemnify Pulitzer in the event and to the extent
that the assignment consented to herein causes any adverse tax consequences to Pulitzer. 

 Please indicate your consent to the assignment by signing and returning the enclosed copy of this letter.
