employment on or prior to January 31, 2007 other than: (a) ”For Cause” (as defined in Section 6.1); or (b) due to death or total disability as provided in Section 2.1, the Corporation shall pay Employee, in full
satisfaction and complete discharge of all obligations and liabilities of the Corporation to Employee under this Agreement or otherwise: (i) the balance of his compensation under Section 3.1 for the remainder of the Employment Period; plus (ii) all
Bonus Payments for the remainder of the Employment Period, computed pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.  Employee shall be paid the balance of his compensation under Section 3.1 as follows: the compensation that accrues to Employee for the six months

first day of the month that immediately follows the month in which such compensation accrued. Employee shall be paid his Bonus Payments in two installments, the first installment being paid during the Corporation’s taxable year immediately

termination ends. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if termination is due to total disability, then the payment shall not be made before the date in the Payment Year which is six (6) months after the date of termination, unless the Corporation, in its
sole discretion, determines that (i) the Employee’s total disability constitutes being “disabled” under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Section 409A”), or (ii) the payment under this Section 6.5 will not
constitute a deferral of compensation under the exemption for separation pay due to involuntary separation from service or participation in a window program set forth in Income Tax Regulation
Section 1.409A-1(a)(9)(ii) (the “Severance Pay Exemption”).” 

7.     Amendment to Section 6.6.  Section 6.6 of the Agreement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following sentences at the end thereof:

termination ends.

2

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment shall not be made before the date in the Payment Year which is six (6) months after the date of termination, unless the Corporation, in its sole discretion, determines that the payment
under this Section 6.6 will not constitute a deferral of compensation under the Severance Pay Exception.” 

8.     Addition of Section 6.7. The Agreement is hereby amended and supplemented by adding a new Section 6.7 as follows: 

“6.7 Effect of Termination of Employment Without Cause After January 31, 2007.  In the event the Corporation terminates Employee’s employment after January 31,
2007 other than: (a) ”For Cause” (as defined in Section 6.1); or (b) due to death or total disability as provided in Section 2.1, the Corporation shall pay Employee, in full satisfaction and complete discharge of all obligations and
liabilities of the Corporation to Employee under this Agreement or otherwise: (i) the balance of his compensation under Section 3.1 for the remainder of the Employment Period or period of renewal; plus (ii) all Bonus Payments, for the remainder of
the Employment Period or period of renewal, computed pursuant to Section 4.2 hereof.  Employee shall be paid the balance of his compensation under Section 3.1 in equal monthly installments on the last day of each month (or otherwise in accordance
with the Corporation’s established payroll policies) commencing on the last day of the month in which termination occurs. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at the time of termination Employee is a “specified employee” within the
meaning of Section 409A, then the payments otherwise due Employee during the first six months after termination shall be paid in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following termination, unless the Corporation, in its sole discretion,
determines that the payments otherwise payable during the first six months following termination will not constitute a deferral of compensation under the Severance Pay Exception. Employee shall be paid his Bonus Payments during the
Corporation’s taxable year (the “Payment Year”) immediately following the taxable year in which the Performance Period that includes the date of termination ends.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the payment shall not be made before
the date in the Payment Year which is six (6) months after the date of termination, unless the Corporation, in its sole discretion, determines that the payment under this Section 6.7 will not constitute a deferral of compensation under the Severance
Pay Exception.” 

9.     Effectiveness.  This Amendment shall be effective as of the date first written above. Except as
specifically amended by this Amendment, all other terms and conditions of the Agreement shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed.

10.   Miscellaneous.
This Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State
of Ohio and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in  accordance
with the laws of such State applicable to contracts made and to be performed
entirely within such State. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of
this Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority
to  be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions,
covenants, and restrictions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and
effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

       THIS AMENDMENT NO. 2 TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT is entered into as of the 10th day of December, 2007 between Rex Radio and Television, Inc., an Ohio corporation (the

      B.      The Corporation and the Employee entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement dated December 20, 2006 (the “Amendment”) to amend the terms and conditions of the Agreement to comply with Section 409A of the Internal

      C.      The Corporation and the Employee entered into Amended and Restated Amendment No. 1 to the Agreement dated December 10, 2007 (the “1st Amendment”) to
amend and restate the Amendment to comply with the Final Section 409A Regulations issued in 2007.

additional change to comply with the Final Section 409A Regulations issued in 2007. 

      NOW, THEREFORE, the Corporation and the Employee hereby amend and restate the 1st Amendment as follows: 

1.     Payment on or before December 31.  Whenever the 1st Amendment provides for a payment to be made in a
certain taxable year of the Corporation such payment is required to be made on or before December 31 of such taxable year. Thus, for example, the 1st Amendment amended Section 4.2(c) of
the Agreement to provide as follows:

“Subject to Section 6.3 and new Section 6.7 below, the Corporation shall pay the Retail Bonus and Energy Investment Bonus (collectively, the “Bonus Payments”) to Employee during the Corporation’s
    taxable year immediately following the taxable year in which the Performance
    Period ends.” 

Under this 2nd Amendment, the amount payable to “Employee during the Corporation’s taxable year immediately following the taxable year in which the
Performance Period ends” shall be paid on or before December 31 of such taxable year.

2.     Effectiveness. This 2nd Amendment shall be effective as of the date first written above. Except as specifically amended by this 2nd Amendment, all other terms and conditions of the Agreement (including the Amendment and the 1st Amendment) shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. 

3.     Miscellaneous. This 2nd Amendment shall be deemed to be a contract made under the laws of the State of
Ohio and for all purposes shall be governed by and construed in accordance

with the laws of such State applicable to contracts made and to be performed entirely within such State. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this 2nd
Amendment is held by a court of competent jurisdiction or other authority to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants, and restrictions of the Agreement (including the Amendment and the 1st Amendment) shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated.

      IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this 2nd Amendment to be duly executed and attested, all as of the day and year first above written.
