The Initial Servicer shall deliver to an escrow agent satisfactory to the Administrative Agent passwords to allow access to the Secure Data Room and update such passwords as necessary to insure access to the Secure Data Room through the passwords deposited with such escrow agent.

SECTION 3.02     Deemed Collections; Repurchases. 
(a)    If on any day:
(i)    If the Unpaid Balance of any Transferred Receivable originated by any Originator is (A) reduced or adjusted as a result of any defective, rejected, returned, repossessed or foreclosed goods or services, or any revision, cancellation, allowance, rebate, credit memo, discount or other adjustment made by any Originator or any Affiliate of any Originator, or any setoff, counterclaim or dispute between any Originator or any Affiliate of any Originator, and an Obligor or (B) extended, amended or otherwise modified or waived or any payment term or condition of any related Contract is amended, modified or waived (except as expressly permitted under Section 8.02(a) of the Loan and Security Agreement); or
(ii)    any of the representations or warranties of any Originator set forth in Sections 4.02 (a), (c), (n), (k) and (r) were untrue when made with respect to any Transferred Receivable originated by such Originator as determined by the Administrative Agent; 
then, on such day, such Originator shall be deemed to have received a Collection of such Transferred Receivable:
(A)    in the case of clauses (i)(A) above, in the amount of such reduction or cancellation or the difference between the actual Unpaid Balance (as determined immediately 

8

prior to the applicable event) and the Unpaid Balance in respect of such Transferred Receivable included in calculating the Net Pool Balance (after giving effect to any Collections applied thereto) or, in the case of clause (i)(B) above, in the amount that such extension, amendment, modification or waiver affects the Unpaid Balance of the related Transferred Receivable in the sole determination of the Administrative Agent (it being understood that any amendment, modification or waiver affecting an Originator’s right or manner of receiving payment under the related Contract shall affect the full Unpaid Balance of the related Transferred Receivable unless such amendment, modification or waiver is expressly limited to the rights in respect of a lesser amount).
(B)    in the case of clause (ii) above, in the amount of the entire Unpaid Balance of the relevant Transferred Receivable (as determined immediately prior to the applicable event) with respect to which such representations or warranties of any Originator are or were untrue.
Collections deemed received by any Originator under this Section 3.02(a) are herein referred to as “Deemed Collections”.
(b)    Any Originator that is deemed to receive Deemed Collections shall transfer to a Borrower Collection Account immediately available funds in the amount of such Deemed Collections no later than the earlier to occur of the Settlement Date or Purchase Date immediately following any DSG Party’s actual knowledge of the event giving rise to such Deemed Collections; provided, however that with respect to any Deemed Collection related to the setoff of any commissions owing to any advertising agency under any Contract relating to a Pool Receivable that is an Advertising Receivable against any amounts owing by such advertising agency to the related Originator under such Contract to reduce the Unpaid Balance of any such Pool Receivable, the amount of any such reduction in the Unpaid Balance of such Pool Receivable shall be paid as a Deemed Collection by the applicable Originator at least one (1) Business Day prior to the such Originator confirming such setoff with the applicable Obligor.
(c)    In the event that any Originator makes a Deemed Collection payment in full of the Unpaid Balance of a Transferred Receivable in accordance with Section 3.02(a), the Borrower shall at the request of the applicable Originator reconvey such Receivable to the applicable Originator. Each Originator shall ensure that no Collections or other proceeds with respect to a formerly Transferred Receivable so reconveyed to it are paid or deposited into the Borrower Collection Account.
(d)    Other than pursuant to Section 3.02(c), no Originator shall repurchase any Transferred Receivable unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall have consented to such repurchase in writing. 

SECTION 3.03     Actions Evidencing Purchases.  (a) On or prior to the Closing Date, each Originator (or Servicer, on behalf of such Originator) shall mark its records evidencing Receivables and Contracts in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, evidencing that the Receivables originated by such Originator have been transferred in whole or in part to the Borrower in accordance with this Agreement, and none of the Originators or Initial Servicer shall change or remove such mark without the consent of the Administrative Agent, as its assignee.  In addition, each Originator agrees that from time to time, at its expense, it will 

9

promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all further action that Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as its assignee, may reasonably request in order to perfect or more fully evidence the purchases, sales and contributions hereunder, or to enable Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as its assignee, to exercise or enforce any of their respective rights with respect to the Transferred Receivables and the Related Assets.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Originator will, upon the request of Borrower or the Administrative Agent: (i) authorize and file such financing or continuation statements, or amendments thereto or assignments thereof, and such other instruments or notices, as may be necessary or appropriate to perfect the interests of Borrower and the Administrative Agent, as its assignee, in the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator and the Related Assets; and (ii) if an Initial Servicer Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, mark conspicuously at the Administrative Agent’s request each Contract evidencing each Receivable originated by such Originator with a legend, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent evidencing that Receivables have been or may have been sold or contributed in accordance with this Agreement. 
(b)    Each Originator hereby authorizes Administrative Agent (i) to file one or more financing or continuation statements, and amendments thereto and assignments thereof, naming such Originator as debtor relative to all or any of the Receivables originated by such Originator and the Related Assets now existing or hereafter arising and (ii) to the extent permitted by the Loan and Security Agreement, to notify Obligors of the assignment of the Transferred Receivables originated by such Originator and the Related Assets.
(c)    Without limiting the generality of Section 3.03(a), each Originator hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to file, and shall deliver and file or cause to be filed appropriate continuation statements, not earlier than six months and not later than three months prior to the fifth anniversary of the date of filing of the financing statements filed in connection with the Closing Date or any other financing statement filed pursuant to this Agreement, if the Final Payout Date shall not have occurred.

PERFORMANCE GUARANTY
PERFORMANCE GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”), dated as of September 23, 2020, by Fox Sports Net, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“FSN”), in favor of Credit Suisse AG, New York Branch, as the Administrative Agent under the Loan Agreement (as defined below) for the benefit of itself, each Lender, each Secured Party and, with respect to any Indemnified Losses, any other Indemnified Party (the “Administrative Agent”), during the period from and including the date hereof to but excluding the Guaranty Termination Date (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Loan Agreement.
WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, the Originators are entering into that certain Initial Purchase and Sale Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Initial Purchase and Sale Agreement”), among the Originators and Diamond Sports Finance SPV, LLC (the “Borrower”);
WHEREAS, from time to time following the Closing Date, certain JV Originators may enter into one or more JV Purchase and Sale Agreements (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “JV Purchase and Sale Agreements”), among the applicable JV Originator(s) and the Borrower;
WHEREAS, concurrently herewith, FSN and the Borrower are entering into a credit facility pursuant to, among other agreements, a Loan and Security Agreement (as amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), among FSN, as Initial Servicer, the Borrower, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Collateral Agent, Paying Agent and Account Bank, the lenders from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent;
WHEREAS, in accordance with the Loan Agreement, it is a condition precedent to the effectiveness of the Loan Agreement that FSN provide this performance guaranty in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of itself, each Lender, each Secured Party and, with respect to any Indemnified Losses, any other Indemnified Party;
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, FSN hereby agrees:
Section 1.Performance Guaranty.  (a) FSN hereby irrevocably and unconditionally guarantees the due and punctual performance and observance by each Specified FSN Entity, as Originator or JV Originator or in its individual capacity or any other capacity under the Transaction Documents to which  any Specified FSN Entity is a party, of its obligations under the Transaction Documents and of all of the terms, covenants, conditions, agreements and undertakings to be performed or observed by any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity, under the Transaction Documents in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof including any agreement of any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity, to pay any money under the Transaction Documents (all such terms, covenants, conditions, agreements and undertakings to be performed or observed by any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity, being collectively referred to as the “Guaranteed Obligations”), in each case after any applicable grace periods or notice requirements, according to 

1

the terms of the Transaction Documents; provided, however, that FSN shall not be liable to make any payment in respect of a Guaranteed Obligation (each, a “Guaranteed Payment Obligation”) until two (2) Business Days (as used herein, a “Business Day” shall refer to a day other than a Saturday or a Sunday on which commercial banks are open for business in New York City) following receipt by FSN of written notice from the Administrative Agent that such a Guaranteed Payment Obligation is due that has not been satisfied by any Specified FSN Entity, in any relevant capacity under the Transaction Documents .  In the event that any Specified FSN Entity, in any relevant capacity, shall fail in any manner whatsoever to perform or observe any of the Guaranteed Obligations when the same shall be required to be performed or observed (after any applicable grace periods and notice requirements, according to the terms of the applicable Transaction Document, and the notice requirements set forth in the preceding sentence), then FSN will itself duly perform or observe, or cause to be duly performed or observed, such Guaranteed Obligation, and it shall not be a condition to the accrual of the obligation of FSN hereunder to perform or observe any Guaranteed Obligation, or to cause such Guaranteed Obligation to be performed or observed, that the Administrative Agent shall have first made any request of or demand upon or given any notice to FSN (other than the notice required pursuant to the preceding sentence) or to any Specified FSN Entity or its successors or assigns, or have instituted any action or proceeding against FSN or any Specified FSN Entity or its successors or assigns in respect thereof.  The obligations of FSN hereunder shall be unsubordinated and rank pari passu with the senior unsecured debt of FSN.  FSN hereby agrees that its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional, irrespective of (i) the validity, regularity or enforceability of any Transaction Document, any change therein or amendment thereto, the absence of any action by Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to exercise or enforce any right or remedy under the provisions of any Transaction Document or otherwise, any waiver or consent by any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity, with respect to any provision thereof, the recovery of any judgment against any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity, or any action to enforce the same, or any other circumstances which may otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a guarantor and (ii) any difference between the law selected as the governing law of any applicable Transaction Document and the law selected as the governing law of this Guaranty.  FSN covenants that this Guaranty will not be discharged except by complete performance and satisfaction in full of the Guaranteed Obligations.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Guaranty shall be discharged in its entirety on the Guaranty Termination Date; provided, however, that this Guaranty shall not be discharged on the Guaranty Termination Date in respect of any claims made pursuant to and in accordance with this Guaranty prior to the Guaranty Termination Date, which have not yet been satisfied. For the avoidance of doubt and notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Transaction Document, this Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and performance and not of collection. The Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to enforce or exhaust its remedies against any Specified FSN Entity or under any Transaction Document before proceeding to enforce this Guaranty. For the sake of clarity, and without limiting the foregoing, it is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the Guaranteed Obligations do not include the payment or guaranty of any amounts to the extent such amounts constitute recourse with respect to a Pool Receivable by reason of the insolvency, bankruptcy, lack of creditworthiness or other financial inability to pay of the related Obligor.

2

(b)    FSN herby waives (i) promptness and diligence; (ii) notice of the incurrence of any additional obligations by any Specified FSN Entity; (iii) notice of any actions taken by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Secured Party under any Transaction Document; (iv) acceptance of this Guaranty and reliance thereon by the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Secured Party; (v) any failure of any Secured Party to disclose to any DSG Party any information relating to the business, condition (financial or otherwise), operations, performance, properties, or prospects of any other DSG Party now or hereafter known to such Secured Party, and any duty of any Secured Party to disclose such information and (vi) presentment, demand of payment, notice of dishonor or nonpayment, protest and notice of protest with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations, and all other formalities of every kind in connection with the enforcement of the Guaranteed Obligations, the omission of or delay in which might constitute grounds for relieving FSN of its obligations under this Guaranty.
(c)    FSN, in respect of any amounts owing from any Specified FSN Entity, in any capacity under the Transaction Documents, that are paid by FSN pursuant to the provisions of this Guaranty to any third party, shall be subrogated to all rights of such third party to receive payments of such amounts from any Specified FSN Entity; provided, however, that FSN shall be entitled to enforce, or to receive any payments arising out of or based upon, such right of subrogation only after all amounts payable under the Loan Agreement and all Guaranteed Payment Obligations have been paid in full.
