OF

SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

OF

WESTWOOD ONE, INC.

(PURSUANT TO SECTION 151(g) OF THE

GENERAL CORPORATION LAW OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE)

October 21, 2011

The undersigned duly authorized officer of Westwood One, Inc. (the “Corporation”), a
corporation organized and existing under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the
“DGCL”), certifies that, pursuant to the authority expressly granted to and vested in the
Board of Directors of the Corporation (the “Board of Directors”) by the Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (the “Certificate of
Incorporation”), which authorizes the issuance, by the Corporation, of up to 200,000 shares of
preferred stock, par value $.01 per share (the “Preferred Stock”), the Board of Directors
on October 21, 2011 duly adopted the following resolutions:

RESOLVED, that pursuant to clause (c) of Article Fourth of the Certificate of Incorporation,
the Board of Directors hereby creates and provides for the issuance of a series of Preferred
Stock, par value $.01 per share and with a liquidation preference of $1,000 per share, of
the Corporation and hereby fixes the number, voting powers, designations, preferences, and
relative, participating, optional or other special rights of said series, and such
qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, and other matters relating to said
series as follows (capitalized terms used herein but not defined in Section 1
through 9 below have the meanings ascribed to them in Section 10):

Section 1. Designation.

Twenty thousand (20,000) shares of the Preferred Stock of the Corporation are hereby
constituted as a series of Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share and with a liquidation
preference of $1,000 per share (the “Liquidation Preference”), designated as “Series A
Preferred Stock” (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), no shares of which have been issued by
the Corporation prior to October 21, 2011 (the “Issue Date”).

Section 2. Ranking.

The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank senior as to dividends over the Common Stock and
any other series or class of the Corporation’s stock created after the Issue Date that by its terms
ranks junior as to dividends to the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued (“Junior
Dividend Stock”), and senior as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, over the Common Stock and any
other series or class of the Corporation’s stock issued after the Issue Date that by its terms
ranks junior as to liquidation, dissolution and winding up to the Series A Preferred Stock, when
and if issued (“Junior Liquidation Stock”). The Common Stock and any other series or class
of the Corporation’s stock that is both Junior Dividend Stock and Junior Liquidation Stock is
referred to herein as “Junior Stock”. The Series A Preferred Stock shall be junior as to
dividends to any other series or class of the Corporation’s stock issued after the Issue Date that
by its terms ranks senior as

 

 

 

to dividends to the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued
(“Senior Dividend 
Stock”), and junior as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, to any other series or class of
the Corporation’s stock issued after the Issue Date that by its terms ranks senior as to
liquidation, dissolution and winding up to the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued
(“Senior Liquidation Stock” and collectively with the Senior Dividend Stock, “Senior
Stock”). The Series A Preferred Stock shall rank pari passu with respect to dividends with any
series or class of the Corporation’s stock issued after the Issue Date that by its terms ranks pari
passu as to dividends with the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued (“Parity Dividend
Stock”), and pari passu as to distributions of assets upon liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, to any series or class of the
Corporation’s stock issued after the Issue Date that by its terms ranks pari passu as to
liquidation, dissolution and winding up with the Series A Preferred Stock, when and if issued
(“Parity Liquidation Stock” and collectively with the Parity Dividend Stock, “Parity
Stock”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, until the first anniversary of the Issue Date, to the
extent declared by the Board of Directors prior to such first anniversary, the Corporation may pay
dividends to the Common Stock notwithstanding the fact that the Annual Dividend Amount has not been
paid.

Section 3.
Dividends.

(a) Each holder of the Series A Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive dividends when,
as and if declared by the Board of Directors or a duly authorized committee thereof out of funds of
the Corporation legally available therefor, at an annual rate equal to the Applicable Dividend Rate
on the Liquidation Preference (including all accumulated dividends thereon, but not accrued
dividends that have not accumulated) of each share of the Series A Preferred Stock (the “Annual
Dividend Amount”). Such dividends shall be payable solely in cash (to the extent actually
paid), shall be cumulative and shall accrue (whether or not earned or declared, whether or not
there are funds legally available for the payment thereof and whether or not restricted by the
terms of any of the Corporation’s indebtedness outstanding at any time) from and including the date
each share is issued to and including the first to occur of (i) the date on which the Liquidation
Preference (including all accumulated dividends thereon) of such share (plus all accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon) is paid to the holder thereof in connection with the liquidation of the
Corporation or the redemption of such share by the Corporation or (ii) the date on which such share
is otherwise acquired by the Corporation. To the extent not paid in cash on March 15, June 15,
September 15 and December 15 of each year (each, a “Dividend Reference Date”), all
dividends which have accrued on each share outstanding during the calendar quarter preceding the
applicable Dividend Reference Date shall be accumulated and shall remain accumulated dividends with
respect to such share until paid to the holder thereof. No dividends may be paid on the Series A
Preferred Stock in cash for any Dividend Reference Date occurring prior to the first anniversary of
the Issue Date.

(b) The dividend payment period for any dividend payable or accumulating on a Dividend
Reference Date shall be the period beginning on the immediately preceding Dividend Reference Date
(or on the issue date if the applicable share is first issued at some time after the immediately
preceding Dividend Reference Date) and ending on the day preceding such applicable Dividend
Reference Date. If any date on which a cash dividend is declared in respect of the Series A
Preferred Stock is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next day that is a
Business Day.

(c) Any dividends paid in cash shall be payable to the holders of record of the Series A
Preferred Stock as they appear on the stock transfer books of the Corporation at the close of
business on the day the dividend is declared, or such other date that the Board of Directors
designates that is not more than 30 nor less than 10 days prior to such date. Dividends paid on
the shares of the Series A Preferred
Stock in an amount less than accumulated and unpaid dividends payable thereon shall be
allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding.

 

2

 

(d) After the first anniversary of the Issue Date, unless all dividends on the Series A
Preferred Stock have been declared and paid or set apart for payment and all other amount owing on
the Series A Preferred Stock have otherwise been paid in full, the Corporation shall not (i)
declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution on any Junior Stock, whether in cash, property
or otherwise (other than dividends payable in shares of Junior Stock) or (ii) purchase or redeem
any Junior Stock (except by conversion into or exchange solely for shares of Junior Stock), or pay
or make available any monies for a sinking fund for the purchase or redemption of any Junior Stock,
other than up to $2,000,000 in the aggregate under the First Lien Credit Agreement (so long as no
“Default” is existing or would result therefrom under the First Lien Credit Agreement) and
$2,250,000 in the aggregate under the Second Lien Credit Agreement (so long as no “Default” is
existing or would result therefrom under the Second Lien Credit Agreement) from employees of the
Corporation who are not directors or executive officers of the Corporation upon termination of
employment with the Corporation.

Section 4.
Redemption.

Following the first anniversary on the Issue Date, the Corporation may redeem the Series A
Preferred Stock out of funds legally available therefore in whole or in part on at least 15 days
prior written notice (of the anticipated date of redemption, which notice shall not obligate the
Corporation to redeem any of the Series A Preferred Stock) to each holder of record if the Board of
Directors approves such redemption, payable in cash (the “Redemption Payment”). If the
Corporation elects to redeem any of the Series A Preferred Stock, the Redemption Payment shall be
equal to the Liquidation Preference (including all accumulated dividends thereon) of the shares
being redeemed and any accrued and unpaid dividends whether or not declared on the shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock being redeemed. If the number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be
redeemed in a redemption shall be less than all of the Series A Preferred Stock, the number of
shares to be redeemed from each holder thereof shall be determined by multiplying, as appropriate,
the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed times a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the total number of shares of Series A Preferred Stock then held by
such holder and the denominator of which shall be the total number of shares of Series A Preferred
Stock then outstanding.

Section 5.
Procedure For Redemption.

(a) In the event of redemption of the Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to Section 4,
notice of such redemption shall be given by hand or by nationally recognized “overnight courier”
for delivery at the earliest time offered by such overnight courier (which may not necessarily be
the next day) to each holder of record of the shares to be redeemed at such holder’s address as the
same appears on the stock transfer books of the Corporation at least 15 but not more than 60 days
before the date fixed for redemption, provided, however, that no failure to give
such notice nor any defect therein shall affect the validity of the redemption of any share of the
Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed except as to the holder to whom the Corporation has failed
to give said notice or except as to the holder whose notice was defective. Each such notice shall
state: (i) the redemption date; (ii) the number of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be
redeemed and, if less than all the shares held by such holder are to be redeemed, the number of
shares to be redeemed from such holder; (iii) the amount of the Redemption Payment; and (iv) that
dividends on the shares to be redeemed will cease to accrue on such redemption date. Each such
notice shall be effective upon delivery if given by hand or upon deposit with a nationally
recognized overnight courier if given by such a courier.

 

3

 

(b) Notice having been given as aforesaid, from and after the redemption date (unless the
Corporation shall have defaulted in providing the Redemption Payment for the shares called for
redemption), dividends on the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock called for redemption shall
cease to accrue, and such shares shall no longer be deemed to be outstanding and shall have the
status of authorized but unissued shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, unclassified as to
series, and shall not be reissued as shares of the Series A Preferred Stock, and all rights of the
holders thereof attendant to their ownership of the Series A Preferred Stock as stockholders of the
Corporation (except the right to receive from the Corporation the Redemption Payment) shall cease.
Upon surrender in accordance with said notice of the certificates for any shares so redeemed
(properly endorsed or assigned for transfer, if the Board of Directors shall require and the notice
shall so state), such shares shall be redeemed by the Corporation, and the Corporation shall make
the required Redemption Payment.

(c) If a notice of redemption shall have been given, and if, prior to the redemption date, the
Corporation shall have irrevocably deposited the aggregate Redemption Payment of the shares of the
Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed in trust for the pro rata benefit of the holders of the
shares of the Series A Preferred Stock to be redeemed, so as to be and to continue to be available
therefor, with a bank or trust company that is organized under the laws of the United States of
America or any state thereof, has capital and surplus of not less than $250,000,000 and has, or, if
it has no publicly traded debt securities rated by a nationally recognized rating agency, is the
subsidiary of a bank holding company that has, publicly traded debt securities rated at least “A”
or the equivalent thereof by Standard & Poor’s Corporation or “A-2” or the equivalent by Moody’s
Investor Service Inc., then upon making such deposit, all rights of holders of the shares so called
for redemption shall cease, except (i) as otherwise set forth herein and (ii) for the right of
holders of such shares to receive the Redemption Payment against delivery of such shares, but
without interest after the actual redemption date, and such shares shall cease to be outstanding.
Any funds so deposited that are unclaimed by holders of shares at the end of three years from such
redemption date shall be repaid to the Corporation upon its request, after which repayment the
holders of shares of the Series A Preferred Stock so called for redemption shall thereafter be
entitled to look only to the Corporation for payment of the Redemption Payment.

Section 6.
No Conversion or Exchange Rights.

The holders of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock shall not have any right to convert
such shares into or exchange such shares for any other class or series of stock or obligations of
the Corporation.

(a)

Section 7.
Liquidation Rights.

(a) In the case of the liquidation, bankruptcy, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation,
in each case, whether voluntary or involuntary, holders of outstanding shares of the Series A
Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, from the net assets of the Corporation available for
distribution to stockholders, an amount per share in cash of Series A Preferred Stock equal to the
Liquidation Preference (including all accumulated dividends thereon), plus any accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon through the
date of distribution, which shall be a date prior to such liquidation, bankruptcy, dissolution
or winding up to be established by the Board of Directors, as set forth herein, before any payment
or distribution is made to the holders of Common Stock or any other Junior Liquidation Stock, but
the holders of the shares of the Series A Preferred Stock will not be entitled to receive the
liquidation preference of such shares until the liquidation preference of any Senior Liquidation
Stock has been paid in full.

 

4

 

(b) The holders of the Series A Preferred Stock and any Parity Liquidation Stock shall share
ratably in any liquidation, distribution or winding up of the Corporation (after payment of the
liquidation preference of the Senior Liquidation Stock) in which the net assets or the proceeds
thereof are not sufficient to pay in full the aggregate of the amounts payable thereon, in the same
ratio that the respective amounts which would be payable on such distribution if the amounts to
which the holders of all the outstanding shares of the Series A Preferred Stock and Parity
Liquidation Stock are entitled were paid in full, bear to each other.

(c) A Change of Control, as defined below, shall be considered a liquidation, dissolution or
winding up of the Corporation for the purpose of this Section 7; provided that the
Corporation shall be able to pay in respect of each share of Series A Preferred Stock the
Liquidation Preference (including all accumulated dividends thereon), plus any accrued and unpaid
dividends thereon through the payment date, by paying such amounts as part of making a Redemption
Payment, and such Redemption Payment shall be made pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section
4 hereof. For purposes hereof, a “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of

hereof
unless the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders agree to
modify such provisions to reflect such changes in GAAP and, unless such  provisions are modified,
all Financial Statements, Compliance Certificates and similar documents  provided hereunder shall be
provided together with a reconciliation between the calculations and amounts  set forth therein
before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. For the avoidance of  doubt, notwithstanding
any change in generally accepted accounting principles after the Closing Date  that would require
lease obligations that would be treated as operating leases as of the Closing  Date to be classified
and accounted for as Capital Leases or otherwise reflected on the  Borrower’s consolidated balance
sheet, such obligations shall continue to be excluded from the definition of  Indebtedness.
Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an  accounting or financial
nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and  ratios referred to
herein shall be made, without giving effect to any election under Statement of  Financial Accounting
Standards 159 (or any other Financial Accounting Standard having a similar  result or effect) to
value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary  of any Loan Party

Article 5 shall be deemed to have occurred as of the last day of  any specified measurement
period, regardless of when the financial statements reflecting such breach are  delivered to the
Administrative Agent.

(b) Pro Forma. All components of financial calculations  made to determine
compliance with Article 5 or otherwise shall be adjusted on a Pro  Forma Basis to
include or exclude, as the case may be, without duplication, such components of  such
calculations attributable to any Pro Forma Transaction consummated after the  first day of
the applicable period of determination and prior to the end of such period, as  determined in
good faith by the Borrower based on assumptions expressed therein and that were  reasonable
based on the information available to the Borrower at the time such assumptions  were made.

Section 1.4 Payments. The Administrative Agent may set up  standards and procedures to
determine or redetermine the equivalent in Dollars of any amount expressed in  any currency other
than Dollars and otherwise may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any  determination made by
any Loan Party or any L/C Issuer. Any such determination or redetermination by  the Administrative
Agent shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.  No determination or
redetermination by any Secured Party or Loan Party and no other currency  conversion shall change or
release any obligation of any Loan Party or of any Secured Party (other than  the Administrative
Agent and its Related Persons) under any Loan Document, each of which agrees to  pay separately for
any shortfall remaining after any conversion and payment of the amount as  converted. The
Administrative Agent may round up or down, and may set up appropriate  mechanisms to round up or
down, any amount hereunder to nearest higher or lower amounts and may determine  reasonable de
minimis payment thresholds.

Section 1.5 Interpretation.

(a) Certain Terms. The terms “herein”,  “hereof” and similar

limitation.” The term “documents” means all writings,  however evidenced and whether
in physical or electronic form, including all documents, instruments,  agreements, notices,
demands, certificates, forms, financial statements, opinions and reports. The  term

(c) Laws. References to any statute or regulation may  be made by using either
the common or public name thereof or a specific citation reference and are to  be construed
as including all statutory and regulatory provisions relating thereto or  consolidating,
amending, replacing, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation.

(d) Deliveries. Notwithstanding anything herein to the  contrary, whenever any
document, agreement or other item (other than any payment) is required by any  Loan Document
to be delivered on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall  be extended
to the next succeeding Business Day.

(e) Intercreditor Agreement. Any reference herein or in  any other Loan Document
(other than in the Intercreditor Agreement) to the “Intercreditor  Agreement” shall mean the
Intercreditor Agreement as in effect on the date hereof and any amendment,  restatement,
supplement or other modification thereto a copy of which has been delivered to  the Borrower.

ARTICLE 2

THE FACILITIES

Section 2.1 The Commitments. (a) Revolving Credit  Commitments. On the terms
and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Revolving  Credit Lender severally,
but not jointly, agrees to make loans in Dollars (each a “Revolving  Loan”) to the Borrower
from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof  until the applicable
Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time  outstanding for all
such loans by such Lender not to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit  Commitment;
provided, however, that at no time shall any Revolving Credit  Lender be obligated
to make a Revolving Loan in excess of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the  amount by which the then
effective Revolving Credit Commitments exceeds the aggregate Revolving Credit  Outstandings at such
time. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of this clause  (a), amounts of
Revolving Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1.

(b) Term Loan Commitments. On the terms and subject to  the conditions contained
in this Agreement, each Term Loan Lender severally, but not jointly, agrees to  make a loan
(each a “Term Loan”) in Dollars to the Borrower on the Closing  Date, in an amount
not to exceed such Lender’s Term Loan Commitment. Amounts of Term Loans  repaid may not be
reborrowed.

(c) Incremental Term Loan Commitments. On the terms and  subject to the
conditions contained in this Agreement and in the applicable Incremental Term  Loan
Assumption Agreement, each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment  severally, but
not jointly, agrees to make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower, in an  amount not to
exceed such Lender’s Incremental Term Loan Commitment. Amounts of  Incremental Term Loans
repaid may not be reborrowed.

Section 2.2 Borrowing Procedures. (a) Notice From the  Borrower. Each Borrowing
shall be made on notice given by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent not  later than 12:00 p.m.
on (i) the first Business Day, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate  Loans and (ii) the third
Business Day, in the case of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Loans, prior to the  date of the
proposed Borrowing. Each such notice may be made in a writing substantially in  the form of
Exhibit C (a “Notice of Borrowing”) duly completed  or by telephone if confirmed
promptly, but in any event within one Business Day and prior to such Borrowing,  with such a Notice
of Borrowing. Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, outside of a  suspension period
pursuant to Section 2.15, the Notice of Borrowing specifies that  all or a portion thereof
shall be Eurodollar Rate Loans. Each Borrowing of Revolving Loans shall be in  an aggregate amount
that is an integral multiple of $100,000.

(b) Notice to Each Lender. The Administrative Agent  shall give to each Lender
prompt notice of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of  Borrowing and, if
Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Borrowing,  prompt notice of
the applicable interest rate. Each Lender shall, before 12:00 p.m. on the  date of the
proposed Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at its address  referred to in
Section 11.11, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such proposed  Borrowing. Upon
fulfillment or due waiver (i) on the Closing Date, of the applicable  conditions set forth in
Section 3.1 and (ii) any time after (but not including) the  Closing Date, of the
applicable conditions set forth in Section 3.2, the Administrative  Agent shall make
such funds available to the Borrower.

(c) Non-Funding Lenders.

(i) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received  notice from any Lender
prior to the date such Lender is required to make any payment hereunder with  respect
to any Loan or any participation in any Swing Loan or Letter of Credit that  such
Lender will not make such payment (or any portion thereof) available to the
Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has  made
such payment available to the Administrative Agent on the date such payment is
required to be made in accordance with this Article 2 and the  Administrative
Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on  such
date a corresponding amount; provided that nothing herein or in any other Loan
Document shall be deemed to require the Administrative Agent to advance funds  on
behalf of any Lender. The Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent  on
demand such amount (until repaid by such Lender) with interest thereon for each  day
from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower until the date such
amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at the interest rate applicable  to the
Obligation that would have been created when the Administrative Agent made  available
such amount to the Borrower had such Lender made a corresponding payment  available;
provided, however, that such payment shall not relieve such  Lender
of any obligation it may have to the Borrower, the Swingline Lender or any L/C
Issuer. The failure of a Non-Funding Lender to make any Revolving Loan, to fund  any
purchase of any participation to be made or funded by it or to make any other
payment required to be made by it under the Loan Documents, in each case on the  date
specified therefore, shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations to  make
such loan, fund the purchase of such participation or make any other such  payment
under any Loan Document on such date, but neither the Administrative Agent nor,
other than as expressly set forth herein, any Lender shall be responsible for  the
failure of any Non-Funding Lender to make a Loan, fund the purchase of a
participation or make any other payment required under any Loan Document.

(ii) Reallocation. If any Revolving Credit Lender is a  Non-Funding
Lender, all or a portion of such Non-Funding Lender’s L/C Obligations  (unless such
Lender is the L/C Issuer that Issued such Letter of Credit) and reimbursement
obligations with respect to Swing Loans shall, (A) at the Administrative  Agent’s
election at any time or upon any L/C Issuer’s or Swingline Lender’s,  as applicable,
written request delivered to the Administrative Agent (whether before or after  the
occurrence of any Default or Event of Default) or (B) upon the  Borrower’s written
request delivered to the Administrative Agent if no Event of Default has  occurred
and is continuing, be reallocated to and assumed by the Revolving Credit  Lenders
that are not Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders pro rata in accordance  with
their Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Credit Commitment (calculated as if the
Non-Funding Lender’s Pro Rata Share was reduced to zero and each other  Revolving
Credit Lender’s Pro Rata Share had been increased proportionately),  provided that no
Revolving Credit Lender shall be reallocated any such amounts or be required to  fund
any amounts that would cause the sum of its outstanding Revolving Loans,  outstanding
L/C Obligations, amounts of its participations in Swing Loans and its pro rata  share
of unparticipated amounts in Swing Loans to exceed its Revolving Credit  Commitment.

(iii) Voting Rights. Notwithstanding anything herein to  the contrary,
including Section 11.1, a Non-Funding Lender shall not have any  voting or
consent rights under or with respect to any Loan Document or constitute a  “Lender”
or a “Revolving Lender” (or be, or have its Loans or Commitments,  included in the
determination of “Required Lenders,” “Required Revolving Credit  Lenders” or “Lenders
directly affected” pursuant to Section 11.1) for any voting or  consent
rights under or with respect to any Loan Document; provided that (A) the  Commitment
of a Non-Funding Lender may not be increased, extended or reinstated,  (B) the
principal of a Non-Funding Lender’s Loans may not be reduced or forgiven  and (C) the
interest rate applicable to Obligations owing to a Non-Funding Lender may not  be
reduced, in each case without the consent of such Non-Funding Lender. For the
purposes of determining Required Lenders and Required Revolving Credit Lenders,  the
Loans and Commitments held by Non-Funding Lenders shall be excluded from the  total
Loans and Commitments outstanding.

(iv) Borrower Payments to a Non-Funding Lender. The  Administrative
Agent shall be entitled to hold, in a non-interest bearing account, all  payments
received by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of any Non-Funding Lender
pursuant to this Agreement as cash collateral. The Administrative Agent is  hereby
authorized to use such cash collateral to pay in full the Aggregate Excess  Funding
Amount to the appropriate Secured Parties, and then, to hold as cash collateral  the
amount of such Non-Funding Lender’s pro rata share, without giving effect  to any
reallocation pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii), of all L/C Obligations  until
the Obligations are paid in full in cash, all L/C Obligations have been  discharged
or cash collateralized and all Commitments have been terminated. Upon any such
unfunded obligations owing by a Non-Funding Lender becoming due and payable,  the
Administrative Agent shall be authorized to use such cash collateral to make  such
payment on behalf of such Non-Funding Lender. With respect to such Non-Funding
Lender’s failure to fund Revolving Loans or purchase participations in  Letters of
Credit or L/C Obligations, any amounts applied by the Administrative Agent to
satisfy such funding shortfalls shall be deemed to constitute a Revolving Loan  or
amount of the participation required to be funded and, if necessary to  effectuate
the foregoing, the other Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have sold,  and
such Non-Funding Lender shall be deemed to have purchased, Revolving Loans or  Letter
of Credit participation interests from the other Revolving Credit Lenders until  such
time as the aggregate amount of the Revolving Loans and participations in  Letters of
Credit and L/C Obligations are held by the Revolving Credit Lenders in  accordance
with their Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Credit Commitment. Any amounts  owing by
a Non-Funding Lender to the Administrative Agent which are not paid when due  shall
accrue interest at the interest rate applicable during such period to Revolving
Loans that are Base Rate Loans. In the event that the Administrative Agent is
holding cash collateral of a Non-Funding Lender that cures pursuant to  clause
(iv) below or ceases to be a Non-Funding Lender pursuant to the definition  of
Non-Funding Lender, the Administrative Agent shall return the unused portion of  such
cash collateral to such Lender. The “Aggregate Excess Funding Amount”  of a
Non-Funding Lender shall be the aggregate amount of (A) all unpaid  obligations owing
by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, L/C Issuers, Swingline Lender, and  other
Lenders under the Loan Documents, including such Lender’s pro rata share  of all
Revolving Loans, L/C Obligations, Swing Loans, plus, without  duplication,
(B) all amounts of such Non-Funding Lender’s L/C Obligations and  reimbursement
Obligations with respect to Swing Loans reallocated to other Lenders pursuant  to
Section 2.2(c)(ii).

(v) Cure. A Lender may cure its status as a Non-Funding  Lender under
clause (a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender if such Lender fully  pays
to the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the applicable Secured Parties, the
Aggregate Excess Funding Amount, plus all interest due thereon. Any such cure  shall
not relieve any Lender from liability for breaching its contractual obligations
hereunder.

(vi) Fees. A Lender that is a Non-Funding Lender  pursuant to clause
(a) of the definition of Non-Funding Lender shall not earn and shall not be
entitled to receive, and the Borrower shall not be required to pay, such  Lender’s
portion of the Unused Commitment Fee during the time such Lender is a  Non-Funding
Lender pursuant to clause (a) thereof. In the event that any  reallocation of
L/C Obligations occurs pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii)), during the  period of
time that such reallocation remains in effect, the Letter of Credit Fee payable  with
respect to such reallocated portion shall be payable to (A) all Revolving  Credit
Lenders based on their pro rata share of such reallocation or (B) to the  L/C Issuer
for any remaining portion not reallocated to any other Revolving Credit  Lenders.

Section 2.3 Swing Loans. (a) Availability. On the terms  and subject to the
conditions contained in this Agreement, the Swingline Lender shall make loans  in Dollars (each a
“Swing Loan”) available to the Borrower under the Revolving  Credit Facility from time to
time on any Business Day during the period from the date hereof until the  Revolving Credit
Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not  to exceed its
Swingline Commitment; provided, however, that the Swingline  Lender may not make any
Swing Loan (x) to the extent that after giving effect to such Swing Loan,  the aggregate Revolving
Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments and  (y) in the period commencing
on the first Business Day after it receives notice from the Administrative  Agent or the Required
Revolving Credit Lenders that one or more of the conditions precedent contained  in Section
3.2 are not satisfied and ending when such conditions are satisfied or duly  waived. In
connection with the making of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender may but  shall not be required to
determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in  Section 3.2
have been satisfied or waived. Each Swing Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan and  must be repaid in full
on the earliest of (i) the funding date of any Borrowing of Revolving  Loans and (ii) the Revolving
Credit Termination Date. Within the limits set forth in the first sentence of  this clause
(a), amounts of Swing Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this clause  (a).

(b) Borrowing Procedures. In order to request a Swing  Loan, the Borrower shall
give to the Administrative Agent a notice to be received not later than  12:00 p.m. on the
day of the proposed borrowing, which may be made in a writing substantially in  the form of
Exhibit D duly completed (a “Swingline Request”)  or by telephone if
confirmed promptly but, in any event, prior to such borrowing, with such a  Swingline
Request. In addition, if any Notice of Borrowing requests a Borrowing of Base  Rate Loans,
the Swing Line Lender may, notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in  Section
2.2, make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower in an aggregate amount not  to exceed
such proposed Borrowing, and the aggregate amount of the corresponding proposed  Borrowing
shall be reduced accordingly by the principal amount of such Swing Loan. The  Administrative
Agent shall promptly notify the Swingline Lender of the details of the  requested Swing Loan.
Upon receipt of such notice and subject to the terms of this Agreement, the  Swingline Lender
shall make a Swing Loan available to the Borrower by making the proceeds  thereof available
to the Administrative Agent and, in turn, the Administrative Agent shall make  such proceeds
available to the Borrower on the date set forth in the relevant Swingline  Request.

(c) Refinancing Swing Loans. The Swingline Lender may  at any time forward a
demand to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall, upon  receipt,
forward to each Revolving Credit Lender) that each Revolving Credit Lender pay  to the
Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving  Credit
Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all or a portion of the outstanding Swing Loans  (as such amounts
may be increased pursuant to Section 2.2 (c)(ii)). Each Revolving  Credit Lender
shall pay such Pro Rata Share to the Administrative Agent for the account of  the Swingline
Lender. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such payment (other than  during the
continuation of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(e)), such  Revolving Credit
Lender shall be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which,  upon receipt of
such payment by the Swingline Lender from the Administrative Agent, the  Borrower shall be
deemed to have used in whole to refinance such Swing Loan. In addition,  regardless of
whether any such demand is made, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default  under
Section 9.1(e), each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to  have acquired,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in each  Swing Loan in
an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swing Loan. If any  payment made by
any Revolving Credit Lender as a result of any such demand is not deemed a  Revolving Loan,
such payment shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of such participation.  Such
participation shall not be otherwise required to be funded. Upon receipt by the  Swingline
Lender of any payment from any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this  clause (c)
with respect to any portion of any Swing Loan, the Swingline Lender shall  promptly pay over
to such Revolving Credit Lender all payments of principal (to the extent  received after such
payment by such Lender) and interest (to the extent accrued with respect to  periods after
such payment) received by the Swingline Lender with respect to such portion.

(d) Obligation to Fund Absolute. Each Revolving Credit  Lender’s obligations
pursuant to clause (c) above shall be absolute, unconditional and  irrevocable and
shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement  under any and all
circumstances whatsoever, including (A) the existence of any setoff,  claim, abatement,
recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender, any Affiliate thereof or  any other
Person may have against the Swing Loan Lender, any other Secured Party or any  other Person,
(B) the failure of any condition precedent set forth in  Section 3.2 to be satisfied
or the failure of the Borrower to deliver any notice set forth in  Section 2.2(a)
(each of which requirements the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably  waive) and (C)
any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party.

(e) Extensions. If the Maturity Date shall have  occurred in respect of any
tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments (such Maturity Date, the  “Earlier Revolving
Commitment Maturity Date”) at a time when another tranche or tranches  of Revolving
Credit Commitments is or are in effect with a longer Maturity Date, then, on  such Earlier
Revolving Commitment Maturity Date, all then outstanding Swing Loans shall be  repaid in full
(and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swing Loans as  a result of
the occurrence of such Earlier Revolving Maturity Date); provided, however,  that if on the
occurrence of such Earlier Revolving Commitment Maturity Date (after giving  effect to any
repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation of Letter of Credit  participations as
contemplated in Section 2.4(h)), there shall exist sufficient  unutilized Extending
Revolving Credit Commitments so that the respective outstanding Swing Loans  could be
incurred pursuant to such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments which will  remain in effect
after the occurrence of such Earlier Revolving Commitment Maturity Date, then  there shall be
an automatic adjustment on such date of the risk participations of each  Revolving Credit
Lender that is an Extending Revolving Credit Lender and such outstanding Swing  Loans shall
be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to the relevant Extended  Revolving Credit
Commitments and such Swing Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full  on such
Earlier Revolving Commitment Maturity Date.

(f) Non-Funding Lenders; Impacted Lenders.  Notwithstanding anything else to the
contrary herein, if any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender, the  Swingline
Lender shall not be obligated to make any Swing Loan unless (i) the  Non-Funding Lender or
Impacted Lender has been replaced in accordance with Section 2.18  or Section
11.2, (ii) the reimbursement obligations with respect to Swing Loans  of such Non-Funding
Lender or Impacted Lender have been cash collateralized, (iii) the  Revolving Credit
Commitments of the other Revolving Credit Lenders have been increased by an  amount
sufficient to satisfy the Administrative Agent that all future reimbursement  obligations
with respect to Swing Loans will be covered by all Revolving Credit Lenders  that are not
Non-Funding Lenders or Impacted Lenders, or (iv) the reimbursement  obligations with respect
to Swing Loans of such Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender have been  reallocated to other
Revolving Credit Lenders in a manner consistent with  Section 2.2(c)(ii).

Section 2.4 Letters of Credit. (a) Commitment and  Conditions. On the terms and
subject to the conditions contained herein, each L/C Issuer agrees to Issue, at  the request of the
Borrower, in accordance with such L/C Issuer’s usual and customary  business practices, and for the
account of the Borrower (or, as long as the Borrower remains responsible for  the payment in full of
all amounts drawn thereunder and related fees, costs and expenses, for the  account of any Group
Member), Letters of Credit (denominated in Dollars) from time to time on any  Business Day during
the period from the Closing Date through the earlier of the Revolving Credit  Termination Date and 7
days prior to the Scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided,  however,
that such L/C Issuer shall not be under any obligation to Issue any Letter of  Credit upon the
occurrence of any of the following, after giving effect to such Issuance:

(i) (A) the aggregate Revolving Credit Outstandings would  exceed the aggregate
Revolving Credit Commitments or (B) the L/C Obligations for all Letters of  Credit
would exceed the L/C Sublimit;

(ii) the expiration date of such Letter of Credit  (A) is not a Business Day,
(B) is more than one year after the date of Issuance thereof or  (C) is later than 7
days prior to the Scheduled Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided,
however, that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding one year  may
provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding one year as long  as (x)
each of the Borrower and such L/C Issuer have the option to prevent such  renewal
before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such  L/C
Issuer nor the Borrower shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration  date
beyond the date set forth in clause (C) above; provided, further,  however,
that any Letter of Credit may have an expiration date beyond the date set forth  in
clause (C) to the extent such Letter of Credit is cash collateralized in a  manner
acceptable to the L/C Issuer in its sole discretion (provided that cash
collateralization of 105% of the face amount shall be deemed to be an  acceptable
amount of cash collateral); or

(iii) (A) any fee due in connection with, and on or prior  to, such Issuance has
not been paid, (B) such Letter of Credit is requested to be Issued in a  form that is
not reasonably acceptable to such L/C Issuer or (C) such L/C Issuer shall  not have
received, each in form and substance acceptable to it and duly executed by the
Borrower (and, if such Letter of Credit is Issued for the account of any other  Group
Member, such Group Member), the documents that such L/C Issuer generally uses  in the
ordinary course of its business for the Issuance of letters of credit of the  type of
such Letter of Credit (collectively, the “L/C Reimbursement  Agreement”).

Furthermore, GE  Capital as an L/C Issuer may elect only to Issue Letters of Credit in its own  name
and may only Issue Letters of Credit to the extent permitted by Requirements of  Law, and such
Letters of Credit may not be acceptable by certain beneficiaries such as  insurance companies. For
each such Issuance, the applicable L/C Issuer may, but shall not be required  to, determine that, or
take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in  Section 3.2 have been satisfied
or waived in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit;  provided,
however, that no Letter of Credit shall be Issued during the period  starting on the first
Business Day after the receipt by such L/C Issuer of notice from the  Administrative Agent or the
Required Revolving Credit Lenders that any condition precedent contained in  Section 3.2 is
not satisfied and ending on the date all such conditions are satisfied or duly  waived.

Notwithstanding  anything else to the contrary herein, if any Lender is a Non-Funding Lender or
Impacted Lender, no L/C Issuer shall be obligated to Issue any Letter of Credit  unless (i) the
Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender has been replaced in accordance with  Section 2.18 or
Section 11.2, (ii) the L/C Obligations of such Non-Funding  Lender or Impacted Lender have
been cash collateralized, (iii) the Revolving Credit Commitments of the  other Revolving Credit
Lenders have been increased by an amount sufficient to satisfy the  Administrative Agent that all
future L/C Obligations will be covered by all Revolving Credit Lenders that are  not Non-Funding
Lenders or Impacted Lenders, or (iv) the L/C Obligations of such  Non-Funding Lender or Impacted
Lender have been reallocated to other Revolving Credit Lenders in a manner  consistent with
Section 2.2(c)(ii).

(b) Notice of Issuance. The Borrower shall give the  relevant L/C Issuer and the
Administrative Agent a notice of any requested Issuance of any Letter of  Credit, which shall
be effective only if received by such L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent  not later than
12:00 p.m. on the third Business Day prior to the date of such requested  Issuance (or such
shorter period as may be agreed by the L/C Issuer). Such notice may be made in  a writing
substantially the form of Exhibit E duly completed or in a writing  in any other form
acceptable to such L/C Issuer (an “L/C Request”) or by  telephone if confirmed
promptly, but in any event within one Business Day and prior to such Issuance,  with such an
L/C Request.

(c) Reporting Obligations of L/C Issuers. Each L/C  Issuer agrees to provide the
Administrative Agent (which, after receipt, the Administrative Agent shall  provide to each
Revolving Credit Lender), in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent, each of the following on the following dates: (i) on  or prior to (A)
any Issuance of any Letter of Credit by such L/C Issuer, (B) any drawing  under any such
Letter of Credit or (C) any payment (or failure to pay when due) by the  Borrower of any
related L/C Reimbursement Obligation, notice thereof, which shall contain a  reasonably
detailed description of such Issuance, drawing or payment, (ii) upon the  request of the
Administrative Agent (or any Revolving Credit Lender through the Administrative  Agent),
copies of any Letter of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer and any related L/C  Reimbursement
Agreement and such other documents and information as may reasonably be  requested by the
Administrative Agent and (iii) on the first Business Day of each calendar  week, a schedule
of the Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer, in form and substance  reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the L/C Obligations for  such Letters
of Credit outstanding on the last Business Day of the previous calendar week.

(d) Acquisition of Participations. Upon any Issuance of  a Letter of Credit in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement resulting in any increase in the  L/C
Obligations, each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have acquired,  without recourse
or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Letter of Credit  and the
related L/C Obligations in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share  of such L/C
Obligations.

(e) Reimbursement Obligations of the Borrower. The  Borrower agrees to pay to
the L/C Issuer of any Letter of Credit, or to the Administrative Agent for the  benefit of
such L/C Issuer, each L/C Reimbursement Obligation owing with respect to such  Letter of
Credit no later than the first Business Day after the Borrower receives notice  from such L/C
Issuer or from the Administrative Agent that payment has been made under such  Letter of
Credit or that such L/C Reimbursement Obligation is otherwise due (the  “L/C
Reimbursement Date”) with interest thereon computed as set forth in  clause (i)
below. In the event that any L/C Issuer incurs any L/C Reimbursement  Obligation not
repaid by the Borrower as provided in this clause (e) (or any such  payment by the
Borrower is rescinded or set aside for any reason), such L/C Issuer shall  promptly notify
the Administrative Agent of such failure (and, upon receipt of such notice, the
Administrative Agent shall forward a copy to each Revolving Credit Lender) and,  irrespective
of whether such notice is given, such L/C Reimbursement Obligation shall be  payable on
demand by the Borrower with interest thereon computed (i) from the date on  which such L/C
Reimbursement Obligation arose to the L/C Reimbursement Date, at the interest  rate
applicable during such period to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans and  (ii)
thereafter until payment in full, at the interest rate applicable during such  period to past
due Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.

(f) Reimbursement Obligations of the Revolving Credit  Lenders. Upon receipt of
the notice described in clause (e) above from the Administrative Agent,  each
Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account  of such L/C
Issuer its Pro Rata Share of such L/C Reimbursement Obligation (as such amount  may be
increased pursuant to Section 2.2(c)(ii)). By making such payment  (other than during
the continuation of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(e)), such  Lender shall be
deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to the Borrower, which, upon receipt  thereof by the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of such L/C Issuer, the Borrower shall be  deemed to
have used in whole to repay such L/C Reimbursement Obligation. Any such payment  that is not
deemed a Revolving Loan shall be deemed a funding by such Lender of its  participation in the
applicable Letter of Credit and the related L/C Obligations. Such participation  shall not
otherwise be required to be funded. Following receipt by any L/C Issuer of any  payment from
any Lender pursuant to this clause (f) with respect to any portion of  any L/C
Reimbursement Obligation, such L/C Issuer shall promptly pay to the  Administrative Agent,
for the benefit of such Lender, all amounts received by such L/C Issuer (or to  the extent
such amount shall have been received by the Administrative Agent for the  benefit of such L/C
Issuer, the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender all amounts  received by
the Administrative Agent for the benefit of such L/C Issuer) with respect to  such portion.

(g) Obligations Absolute. The obligations of the  Borrower and the Revolving
Credit Lenders pursuant to clauses (d), (e) and (f) above  shall be
absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and performed strictly in accordance  with the terms
of this Agreement irrespective of (i) (A) the invalidity or  unenforceability of any term or
provision in any Letter of Credit, any document transferring or purporting to  transfer a
Letter of Credit, any Loan Document (including the sufficiency of any such  instrument), or
any modification to any provision of any of the foregoing, (B) any  document presented under
a Letter of Credit being forged, fraudulent, invalid, insufficient or  inaccurate in any
respect or failing to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit or  (C) any loss or
delay, including in the transmission of any document, (ii) the existence  of any setoff,
claim, abatement, recoupment, defense or other right that any Person (including  any Group

transaction, or the existence of any other withholding, abatement or reduction,  (iii) in the
case of the obligations of any Revolving Credit Lender, (A) the failure of  any condition
precedent set forth in Section 3.2 to be satisfied (each of which  conditions
precedent the Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive) or  (B) any adverse change
in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Loan Party and (iv) any  other act or
omission to act or delay of any kind of any Secured Party or any other Person  or any other
event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the  foregoing, that

discharge of any obligation of the Borrower or any Revolving Credit Lender  hereunder.

(h) Extensions. If the Maturity Date in respect of any  tranche of Revolving
Credit Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit, then  (i) if one

(d) Savings Clause. Anything herein to the contrary  notwithstanding, the
obligations of the Borrower hereunder shall be subject to the limitation that  payments of
interest shall not be required, for any period for which interest is computed  hereunder, to
the extent (but only to the extent) that contracting for or receiving such  payment by the
respective Lender would be contrary to the provisions of any law applicable to  such Lender
limiting the highest rate of interest which may be lawfully contracted for,  charged or
received by such Lender, and in such event the Borrower shall pay such Lender  interest at
the highest rate permitted by applicable law (“Maximum Lawful  Rate”); provided,
however, that if at any time thereafter the rate of interest payable hereunder  is less than
the Maximum Lawful Rate, the Borrower shall continue to pay interest hereunder  at the
Maximum Lawful Rate until such time as the total interest received by the  Administrative
Agent, on behalf of Lenders, is equal to the total interest that would have  been received
had the interest payable hereunder been (but for the operation of this  paragraph) the
interest rate payable since the Closing Date as otherwise provided in this  Agreement.

Section 2.10 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a)  Option. The Borrower may
elect (i) in the case of any Eurodollar Rate Loan, (A) to continue  such Eurodollar Rate Loan or any
portion thereof for an additional Interest Period on the last day of the  Interest Period applicable
thereto and (B) to convert such Eurodollar Rate Loan or any portion  thereof into a Base Rate Loan
at any time on any Business Day, subject to the payment of any breakage costs  required by
Section 2.16(a), and (ii) in the case of Base Rate Loans  (other than Swing Loans), to
convert such Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Eurodollar Rate Loans  at any time on any
Business Day upon 3 Business Days’ prior notice; provided,  however, that, (x) for
each Interest Period, the aggregate amount of Eurodollar Rate Loans having such  Interest Period
must be an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and (y) no conversion in whole  or in part of Base Rate
Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans and no continuation in whole or in part of  Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be permitted at any time at which (1) an Event of Default shall be  continuing and the
Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders shall have determined in their  sole discretion not to
permit such conversions or continuations or (2) such continuation or  conversion would be made
during a suspension imposed by Section 2.15.

(b) Procedure. Each such election shall be made by  giving the Administrative
Agent at least 3 Business Days’ prior notice in substantially the form of  Exhibit F
(a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) duly completed. The  Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or  Continuation
and of the options selected therein. If the Administrative Agent does not  receive a timely
Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower containing a permitted  election to
continue or convert any Eurodollar Rate Loan, then, upon the expiration of the  applicable
Interest Period, such Loan shall be automatically converted to a Base Rate  Loan. Each
partial conversion or continuation shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders  in the
applicable Facility in accordance with their Pro Rata Share.

Section 2.11 Fees. (a) Unused Commitment Fee. The  Borrower agrees to pay to

Obligations for all Letters of Credit from the date hereof through the  Revolving Credit Termination
Date at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin (the “Unused  Commitment Fee”),

separately agreed between the Borrower and such L/C Issuer or otherwise in  accordance with
such L/C Issuer’s standard schedule in effect at the time of determination  thereof and (ii)
to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders  according to

maximum undrawn face amount of outstanding and undrawn Letters of Credit,  payable in arrears
(A) on the last day of each calendar quarter, ending after the Issuance of  such Letter of
Credit and (B) on the last Revolving Credit Termination Date;  provided,
however, that the fee payable under this clause (ii) shall be  increased by
2% per annum and shall be payable, in addition to being payable on any date it  is otherwise
required to be paid hereunder, on demand effective immediately upon  (x) the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(a)  or (e)
or (y) the delivery of a written notice by the Administrative Agent or the  Required Lenders

as such Event of Default shall be continuing.

(c) In the event that prior to the first anniversary of  the Closing Date (i) the
Borrower prepays, refinances, substitutes or replaces all or a portion of the  Term Loans in
connection with a Repricing Transaction, (ii) the Borrower effects any  amendment of this
Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction or (iii) a Term Loan Lender  is replaced as a
result of the mandatory assignment of its portion of the Term Loans pursuant to  Section
2.18 following the failure of such Term Loan Lender to consent to an  amendment hereof
that would result in a Repricing Transaction, then the Borrower shall pay to  the
Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable  Lenders, (A) in the
case of clause (i), a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal  amount of the
initial Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced, (B) in  the case of
clause (ii), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the  applicable Term

the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans of such replaced Term Loan Lender  outstanding

maturity to the next four scheduled amortization payments and thereafter  ratably to the
remaining installments of the Term Loans and Other Term Loans, second,  to repay the
outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans and the Swing Loans (which  shall not
effect a permanent reduction in the Revolving Credit Facility), third,  to provide
cash collateral to the extent and in the manner in Section 9.3,  fourth, if
all the Obligations have been paid in full in cash (other than unasserted  contingent
indemnification obligations and any unasserted expense reimbursement  obligations) and all

respect of any Obligation, all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account  and all other
proceeds of Collateral (i) first, to pay Obligations in respect of any  cost or

Loans. Except as otherwise provided in  Section 2.12(a) and Section
2.12(b), all repayments of Term Loans shall be applied to reduce on a pro  rata basis the
remaining installments of such outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans.  All
repayments of Other Term Loans shall be applied to reduce remaining  installments of such
outstanding principal amounts of the Other Term Loans as set forth in the  applicable
Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. All mandatory repayments of Other  Refinancing
Term Loans shall be applied to reduce the remaining installments of such  outstanding
principal amounts of the Other Refinancing Term Loans as set forth in the  applicable
Refinancing Amendment. If sufficient amounts are not available to repay all  outstanding
Obligations described in any priority level set forth in this  Section 2.12, the
available amounts shall be applied, unless otherwise expressly specified  herein, to such
Obligations ratably based on the proportion of the Secured Parties’  interest in such
Obligations. Any priority level set forth in this Section 2.12 that  includes
interest shall include all such interest, whether or not accruing after the  filing of any
petition in bankruptcy or the commencement of any insolvency, reorganization or  similar
proceeding, and whether or not a claim for post-filing or post-petition  interest is allowed
in any such proceeding.

Section 2.13 Payments and Computations. (a) Procedure.  The Borrower shall make
each payment under any Loan Document not later than 12:00 p.m. on the day  when due to the
Administrative Agent by wire transfer or ACH transfer (which shall be the  exclusive means of
payment hereunder) to the following account (or at such other account or by  such other means to
such other address as the Administrative Agent shall have notified the Borrower  in writing within a
reasonable time prior to such payment) in immediately available Dollars and  without setoff or
counterclaim:

ABA No. 021 001 033

Account Number 502 797 91

Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas

Account Name: General Electric Capital Corporation

Reference: CFK1706/ Westwood One Inc.

The  Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed  immediately available
funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the Lenders, in  accordance with the
application of payments set forth in Section 2.12. The Lenders  shall make any payment under
any Loan Document in immediately available Dollars and without setoff or  counterclaim. Each
Revolving Credit Lender shall make each payment for the account of any L/C  Issuer or Swingline
Lender required pursuant to Section 2.3 or 2.4 (A) if  the notice or demand therefor
was received by such Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. on any Business Day, on  such Business Day and (B)
otherwise, on the Business Day following such receipt. Payments received by the  Administrative
Agent after 12:00 p.m. may, in the Administrative Agent’s sole  discretion, be deemed to be received
on the next Business Day.

(b) Computations of Interests and Fees. All  computations of interest and of
fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of  360 days (or, in
the case of Base Rate Loans the interest rate payable on which is then based on  the Prime
Rate (as defined in the definition of “Base Rate”),  365/366 days), in each case for the
actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day)  occurring in the
period for which such interest and fees are payable. Each determination of an  interest rate
or the amount of a fee hereunder shall be made by the Administrative Agent  (including
determinations of a Eurodollar Rate or Base Rate in accordance with the  definitions of
“Eurodollar Rate” and “Base Rate”, respectively) and shall  be conclusive, binding and final
for all purposes, absent manifest error.

(c) Payment Dates. Notwithstanding anything to the  contrary set forth herein,
whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a  Business Day,
the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business  Day without
any increase in such payment as a result of additional interest or fees;  provided,
however, that such interest and fees shall continue accruing as a result  of such
extension of time. For the avoidance of doubt, the initial payments of interest  and fees
relating to the Obligations (other than amounts due on the Closing Date) shall  be due and
paid on the last day of the first month or quarter, as applicable, following  entry of the
Obligations onto the operations systems of the Administrative Agent (as  notified to the
Borrower), but in no event later than the last day of the second month or  quarter, as
applicable, following the Closing Date.

(d) Advancing Payments. Unless the Administrative Agent  shall have received
notice from the Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment  is due
hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the  Administrative Agent may
assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative  Agent on such
date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause  to be
distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then  due such
Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have made such payment  in full to
the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent  on demand such
amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon (at the  Federal Funds Rate
for the first Business Day and thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate  Loans under
the applicable Facility) for each day from the date such amount is distributed  to such
Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative  Agent.

Section 2.14 Evidence of Debt. (a) Records of Lenders.  Each Lender shall
maintain in accordance with its usual practice accounts evidencing Indebtedness  of the Borrower to
such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time,  including the amounts of
principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under  this Agreement. In
addition, each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or  having identified an
SPV as such to the Administrative Agent, acting as agent of the Borrower solely  for this purpose
and solely for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at its address  referred to in Section
11.11 (or at such other address as such Lender shall notify the Borrower) a  record of
ownership, in which such Lender shall register by book entry (A) the name  and address of each such
participant and SPV (and each change thereto, whether by assignment or  otherwise) and (B) the
rights, interest or obligation of each such participant and SPV in any  Obligation, in any
Commitment and in any right to receive any payment hereunder.

(b) Records of Administrative Agent. The Administrative  Agent, acting as agent
of the Borrower solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions  described in
this Section 2.14, shall establish and maintain at its address  referred to in
Section 11.11 (or at such other address as the Administrative Agent  may notify the
Borrower) (A) a record of ownership (the “Register”) in  which the Administrative
Agent agrees to register by book entry the interests (including any rights to  receive
payment hereunder) of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer  in the Term
Loans and the Revolving Credit Outstandings, each of their obligations under  this Agreement
to participate in each Loan, Letter of Credit and L/C Reimbursement Obligation,  and any
assignment of any such interest, obligation or right and (B) accounts in  the Register in
accordance with its usual practice in which it shall record (1) the names  and addresses of
the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (and each change thereto pursuant to  Section 2.18
(Substitution of Lenders) and Section 11.2 (Assignments  and
Participations; Binding Effect)), (2) the Commitments of each Lender,  (3) the amount of
each Loan and each funding of any participation described in clause (A)  above, (4)
for Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (5) the  amount of any
principal or interest due and payable or paid, (6) the amount of the L/C  Reimbursement
Obligations due and payable or paid and (7) any other payment received by  the Administrative
Agent from the Borrower and its application to the Obligations.

(c) Registered Obligations. Notwithstanding anything to  the contrary contained
in this Agreement, the Loans (including any Notes evidencing such Loans and, in  the case of
Revolving Loans, the corresponding obligations to participate in L/C  Obligations and Swing
Loans) and the L/C Reimbursement Obligations are registered obligations, the  right, title
and interest of the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and their assignees in and to  such Loans or
L/C Reimbursement Obligations, as the case may be, shall be transferable only  upon notation
of such transfer in the Register and no assignment thereof shall be effective  until recorded
therein. This Section 2.14 and Section 11.2 shall be  construed so that the
Loans and L/C Reimbursement Obligations are at all times maintained in  “registered
form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and  881(c)(2) of the Code and any
related regulations (and any successor provisions).

(d) Prima Facie Evidence. The entries made in the  Register and in the accounts
maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the  extent
permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be prima facie evidence of the  existence and
amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided, however,  that no
error in such account and no failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent  to maintain
any such account shall affect the obligations of any Loan Party to repay the  Loans in
accordance with their terms. In addition, the Loan Parties, the Administrative  Agent, the
Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in  the Register
as a Lender or L/C Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement.  Information
contained in the Register with respect to any Lender or any L/C Issuer shall be  available
for access by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such L/C  Issuer at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. No Lender  or L/C Issuer
shall, in such capacity, have access to or be otherwise permitted to review any  information
in the Register other than information with respect to such Lender or L/C  Issuer unless
otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent.

(e) Notes. Upon any Lender’s request, the Borrower  shall promptly execute and
deliver Notes to such Lender evidencing the Loans of such Lender in a Facility  and
substantially in the form of Exhibit B; provided,  however, that only
one Note for each Facility shall be issued to each Lender, except (i) to  an existing Lender
exchanging existing Notes to reflect changes in the Register relating to such  Lender, in
which case the new Notes delivered to such Lender shall be dated the date of  the original
Notes and (ii) in the case of loss, destruction or mutilation of existing  Notes and similar
circumstances, with respect to a lost Note, prior to the Borrower issuing a new  Note, the
holder of such Note shall execute an affidavit of loss therefor which shall  include
customary indemnity provisions acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Each  Note, if issued,
shall only be issued as means to evidence the right, title or interest of a  Lender or a
registered assignee in and to the related Loan, as set forth in the Register,  and in no
event shall any Note be considered a bearer instrument or obligation.

Section 2.15 Suspension of Eurodollar Rate Option.  Notwithstanding any provision to
the contrary in this Article 2, the following shall apply:

(a) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or  Unfair. In the event that (A)
the Administrative Agent determines in good faith that adequate and fair means  do not exist
for ascertaining the applicable interest rates by reference to which the  Eurodollar Rate is
determined or (B) the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent  that the Eurodollar
Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to the  Lenders of making
or maintaining such Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent  shall promptly
so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon the obligation of each Lender  to make or
to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended as provided in clause  (c) below
until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower that the Required  Lenders have
determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

(b) Illegality. If any Lender determines in good faith  that the introduction
of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any Requirement of Law after  the date of
this Agreement shall make it unlawful, or any Governmental Authority shall  assert that it is
unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make Eurodollar  Rate Loans or
to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof  and demand
therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, the  obligation of
such Lender to make or to continue Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended as  provided in
clause (c) below until such Lender shall, through the Administrative  Agent, notify
the Borrower that it has determined that it may lawfully make Eurodollar Rate  Loans.

(c) Effect of Suspension. If the obligation of any  Lender to make or to
continue Eurodollar Rate Loans is suspended, (A) the obligation of such  Lender to convert
Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended, (B) such  Lender shall make a
Base Rate Loan at any time such Lender would otherwise be obligated to make a  Eurodollar
Rate Loan, (C) the Borrower may revoke any pending Notice of Borrowing or  Notice of
Conversion or Continuation to make or continue any Eurodollar Rate Loan or to  convert any
Base Rate Loan into a Eurodollar Rate Loan and (D) each Eurodollar Rate  Loan of such Lender
shall automatically and immediately (or, in the case of any suspension pursuant  to
clause (a) above, on the last day of the current Interest Period  thereof) be
converted into a Base Rate Loan.

Section 2.16 Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital  Requirements. (a) Breakage
Costs. The Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon written demand from  such Lender to such
Borrower (with copy to the Administrative Agent), for all Liabilities  (including, in each case,
those incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or  other funds acquired by
such Lender to prepare to fund, to fund or to maintain the Eurodollar Rate  Loans of such Lender to
the Borrower but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant  Loans) that such
Lender may incur (A) to the extent, for any reason other than solely by  reason of such Lender being
a Non-Funding Lender, a proposed Borrowing, conversion into or continuation of  Eurodollar Rate
Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a  Notice of
Conversion or Continuation or in a similar request made by telephone by the  Borrower, (B) to the
extent any Eurodollar Rate Loan is paid (whether through a scheduled, optional  or mandatory
prepayment) or converted to a Base Rate Loan (including because of  Section 2.15) on a date
that is not the last day of the applicable Interest Period or (C) as a  consequence of any failure
by the Borrower to repay Eurodollar Rate Loans when required by the terms  hereof. For purposes of
this clause (a), each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each  Eurodollar Rate Loan made
by it using a matching deposit or other borrowing in the London interbank  market.

(b) Increased Costs. If at any time any Lender or L/C  Issuer determines in good
faith that, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any change in or in the
interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with, any  Requirement of Law
(other than any imposition or increase of Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) from  any
Governmental Authority shall have the effect of (i) increasing the cost to  such Lender of
making, funding or maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loan or to agree to do so or  of
participating, or agreeing to participate, in extensions of credit that are  Eurodollar Rate
Loans, (ii) increasing the cost to such L/C Issuer of Issuing or  maintaining any Letter of
Credit or of agreeing to do so or (iii) imposing any other cost to such  Lender or

L/C Issuer
with respect to compliance with its obligations under any Loan
Document, then, upon demand
by such Lender or L/C Issuer (with copy to the Administrative Agent), the  Borrower shall pay
to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender or L/C Issuer  amounts sufficient
to compensate such Lender or L/C Issuer for such increased cost (without  duplication of
increases attributable to Taxes which are addressed in  Section 2.17);
provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,  (A) the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules,  guidelines or
directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (B) all  requests, rules,
guidelines, requirements and directives promulgated by the Bank for  International
Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or  similar
authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case  pursuant to
Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to be a change in a Requirement of Law,  regardless
of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented. The foregoing provisions  of this
Section 2.16(b) shall not apply in the case of any change in any  Requirement of Law
or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by a Lender with  any request
or directive (whether or not having force of law) from any central bank or  Governmental
Authority, each in respect of Excluded Taxes.

(c) Increased Capital Requirements. If at any time any  Lender or L/C Issuer
determines in good faith that, after the date hereof, the adoption of, or any  change in or
in the interpretation, application or administration of, or compliance with,  any Requirement
of Law (other than any imposition or increase of Eurodollar Reserve  Requirements) from any
Governmental Authority regarding capital adequacy, liquidity, reserves, special  deposits,
compulsory loans, insurance charges against property of, deposits with or for  the account
of, Obligations owing to, or other credit extended or participated in by, any  Lender or L/C
Issuer or any similar requirement (in each case other than any imposition or  increase of
Eurodollar Reserve Requirements) shall have the effect of reducing the rate of  return on the
capital of such Lender’s or L/C Issuer (or any corporation controlling  such Lender or L/C
Issuer) as a consequence of its obligations under or with respect to any Loan  Document or
Letter of Credit to a level below that which, taking into account the capital  adequacy
policies of such Lender, L/C Issuer or corporation, such Lender, L/C Issuer or  corporation
could have achieved but for such adoption or change, then, upon demand from  time to time by
such Lender or L/C Issuer (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative  Agent), the
Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender  amounts
sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction; provided that  notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, (A) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and  Consumer
Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives thereunder or  issued in
connection therewith and (B) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements  and directives
promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on  Banking
Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or  foreign
regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case  be deemed to
be a change in a Requirement of Law, regardless of the date enacted, adopted,  issued or
implemented.

(d) Compensation Certificate. Each demand for  compensation under this
Section 2.16 shall be accompanied by a certificate of the Lender or  L/C Issuer
delivered to the Borrower claiming such compensation and setting forth in  reasonable detail
the basis for such demand, setting forth the amounts to be paid hereunder,  which certificate
shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.  In
determining such amount, such Lender or L/C Issuer may use any reasonable  averaging and
attribution methods. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the  contrary, failure or
delay on the part of any Lender or L/C Issuer to demand compensation pursuant  to this
Section 2.16 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or  L/C Issuer’s right to
demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be  required to
compensate a Lender or L/C Issuer pursuant to this Section 2.16 for  any increased
costs incurred or reductions suffered more than six months prior to the date  that such
Lender or L/C Issuer, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the  occurrence of the
event giving rise to the additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss or other  additional
amounts described in this Section 2.16, and of such Lender’s  or L/C Issuer’s
intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the event giving rise  to the
additional cost, reduction in amounts, loss or other additional amounts  described in this
Section 2.16 is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to  above shall be
extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

Section 2.17 Taxes. (a) Payments Free and Clear of  Taxes. Except as otherwise
required by Requirements of Law, each payment by any Loan Party under any Loan  Document shall be
made free and clear of all present or future taxes, levies, imposts,  deductions, charges or
withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto (and without deduction  for any of them)
(collectively, “Taxes” and excluding the taxes set forth in  clauses (i) — (vi)
below, the “Indemnified Taxes”) other than for (i) Taxes  measured by net income (including
branch profits taxes) or capital and franchise taxes imposed in lieu of net  income taxes, (ii)
Taxes imposed on any Secured Party as a result of a present or former  connection between such
Secured Party and the jurisdiction of the Governmental Authority imposing such  tax or any political
subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than such connection  arising solely from
any Secured Party having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or  received a payment
under, or enforced, any Loan Document), (iii) Taxes that are directly  attributable to the failure
(other than as a result of a change in any Requirement of Law) by any Secured  Party to deliver the
documentation required to be delivered pursuant to clause (f) below,  (iv) Taxes imposed on
or in respect of a payment to a Secured Party to the extent that such Tax is  imposed pursuant to
law in effect on the date that such Secured Party became a “Secured  Party” under this Agreement in
the capacity under which such Secured Party makes a claim under  Section 2.17(b), except in
each case to the extent such Secured Party is a direct or indirect assignee  (other than pursuant to
Section 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders)) of any other Secured  Party that was
entitled, at the time the assignment of such other Secured Party became  effective, to receive
additional amounts under Section 2.17(b), (v) Taxes that  constitute a penalty, interest or
expense that results solely from a failure of a Secured Party to pay any Taxes,  within thirty (30)
days of the receipt of the indemnity payment with respect thereto under  Section 2.17(d), to
the extent such penalty, interest or expense relates to any Taxes which it is  required to pay, or
(vi) Taxes resulting from FATCA (clauses (i) through  (vi) collectively, “Excluded Taxes”).

(b) Gross-Up. If any Indemnified Taxes shall be  required by law to be deducted
from or in respect of any amount payable under any Loan Document to any Secured  Party (i)
such amount shall be increased as necessary to ensure that, after all required  deductions
for Indemnified Taxes are made (including deductions applicable to any  increases to any
amount under this Section 2.17), such Secured Party receives the  amount it would
have received had no such deductions for Indemnified Taxes been made,  (ii) the relevant Loan
Party shall make such deductions, (iii) the relevant Loan Party shall  timely pay the full
amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in  accordance with
applicable Requirements of Law, and (iv) within thirty (30) days  after such payment is made,
the relevant Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an original  or certified
copy of a receipt evidencing such payment.

(c) Other Taxes. In addition, the Borrower agrees to  pay, and authorizes the
Administrative Agent to pay in its name, any stamp, documentary, excise or  property tax,
charge or similar levy imposed by any applicable Requirement of Law or  Governmental
Authority and all Liabilities with respect thereto (including by reason of any  delay in
payment thereof), in each case arising from the execution, delivery or  registration of, or
otherwise with respect to, any Loan Document or any transaction contemplated  therein
(collectively, “Other Taxes”). The Swingline Lender may,  without any need for
notice, demand or consent from the Borrower, by making funds available to the  Administrative
Agent in the amount equal to any such payment, make a Swing Loan to the  Borrower in such
amount, the proceeds of which shall be used by the Administrative Agent in  whole to make
such payment. Within thirty (30) days after the date of any payment of  Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by any Loan Party in respect of a Secured Party, the Borrower shall  furnish to
the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in  Section 11.11, the original
or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence  of payment
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Indemnification. The Borrower shall reimburse and  indemnify, within thirty
(30) days after receipt of demand therefor (with copy to the  Administrative Agent), each
Secured Party for all Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including any  Indemnified Taxes and
Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this  Section 2.17)
paid by such Secured Party and any Liabilities arising therefrom or with  respect thereto,
whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally  asserted. A
certificate of the Secured Party (or of the Administrative Agent on behalf of  such Secured
Party) claiming any compensation under this clause (d), setting forth  the amounts to
be paid thereunder and delivered to the Borrower with copy to the  Administrative Agent,
shall be conclusive, binding and final for all purposes, absent manifest error.  In
determining such amount, the Administrative Agent and such Secured Party may  use any
reasonable averaging and attribution methods.

(e) Mitigation. Any Lender claiming any additional  amounts payable pursuant to
this Section 2.17 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with  its internal
policies and Requirements of Law) to change the jurisdiction of its lending  office if such a
change would reduce any such additional amounts (or any similar amount that may  thereafter
accrue) and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise
disadvantageous to such Lender.

(f) Tax Forms. (i) Each Non-U.S. Lender Party  that, at any of the following
times, is entitled to an exemption from United States withholding tax or,  currently or after
a change in any Requirement of Law, is subject to such withholding tax at a  reduced rate
under an applicable tax treaty, shall (w) on or prior to the date such  Non-U.S. Lender Party
becomes a “Non-U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (x) on or prior to  the date on which any such
form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (y) after the  occurrence of any event
requiring a change in the most recent form or certification previously  delivered by it
pursuant to this clause (f) and (z) from time to time if requested  by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the  relevant Lender),
provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (or, in the case of a  participant or SPV,
the relevant Lender) with two properly completed and duly executed originals of  one of the
following, as applicable: (A) Forms W-8ECI (claiming exemption from U.S.  withholding tax
because the income is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business),  W-8BEN (claiming
exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under an income tax  treaty) and/or
W-8IMY (together with appropriate forms, certifications and supporting  statements) or any
successor forms, (B) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender Party claiming  exemption under
Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, Form W-8BEN (claiming exemption from  U.S. withholding
tax under the portfolio interest exemption) or any successor form and a  certificate in form
and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent that such Non-U.S. Lender  Party is not
(1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of  the Code, (2) a “10 percent
shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of  Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (3) a
“controlled foreign corporation” described in  Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (C) any
other applicable document prescribed by the IRS certifying as to the  entitlement of such
Non-U.S. Lender Party to such exemption from United States withholding tax or  reduced rate
with respect to all payments to be made to such Non-U.S. Lender Party under the  Loan
Documents. Unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent have received forms  or other
documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments under any Loan Document  to or for a
Non-U.S. Lender Party are not subject to United States withholding tax or are  subject to
such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, the Loan Parties and  the
Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by  applicable
Requirements of Law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate.

(ii) Each U.S. Lender Party shall (A) on or prior to  the date such U.S. Lender
Party becomes a “U.S. Lender Party” hereunder, (B) on or prior  to the date on which
any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete, (C) after the  occurrence
of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certification  previously
delivered by it pursuant to this clause (f) and (D) from time to  time if
requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a
participant or SPV, the relevant Lender), provide the Administrative Agent and  the
Borrower (or, in the case of a participant or SPV, the relevant Lender) with  two
completed originals of Form W-9 (certifying that such U.S. Lender Party is  entitled
to an exemption from U.S. backup withholding tax) or any successor form.

(iii) Each Lender having sold a participation in any of  its Obligations or
identified an SPV as such to the Administrative Agent shall collect from such
participant or SPV the documents described in this clause (f) and  provide
them to the Administrative Agent.

(iv) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement  would be subject to
U.S. withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply  with the
applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in  Section
1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to  the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law  and at
such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative  Agent,
such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by  Section
1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably  requested
by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the  Borrower and
the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to  determine
that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations  under FATCA
and, as necessary, to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such  payment.
Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f)(iv), “FATCA”  shall include any
amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) Refunds. If a Secured Party determines, in its sole  discretion, that it has
received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has  been
indemnified by a Loan Party or with respect to which a Loan Party has paid  additional
amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such  refund to such Loan
Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts  paid, by
such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the  Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of  the
Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any  interest paid by
the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund);  provided, that
such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender,  agrees to
repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or  other charges
imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Secured Party in the  event such
Secured Party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.  This
paragraph shall not be construed to require any Secured Party to make available  its Tax
Returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems  confidential) to any
Loan Party or any other Person.

Section 2.18 Substitution of Lenders. (a) Substitution  Right. In the event
that any Lender in any Facility that is not the Administrative Agent or an  Affiliate of the
Administrative Agent (an “Affected Lender”), (i) makes a  claim under clause (b)
(Increased Costs) or (c) (Increased Capital Requirements) of  Section 2.16,
(ii) notifies the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.15(b)  (Illegality) that it becomes
illegal for such Lender to continue to fund or make any Eurodollar Rate Loan in  such Facility,
(iii) makes a claim for payment pursuant to Section 2.17(b)  (Taxes), (iv) does not
consent to any amendment, waiver or consent to any Loan Document for which the  consent of the
Required Lenders is obtained but that requires the consent of other Lenders in  such Facility, (v)
is a Non-Funding Lender or an Impacted Lender or (vi) does not agree to  provide any portion of any
Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness being incurred pursuant to  Section 2.22, the
Borrower may either pay in full such Affected Lender with respect to amounts  due in such Facility
with the consent of the Administrative Agent or substitute for such Affected  Lender in such
Facility any Lender or any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any Lender or any  other Person (and to the
extent any such consent would be required from the Administrative Agent under  Section 11.2 for an
assignment of Loans to such Person, such Person shall be acceptable to the  Administrative Agent,
which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) (in each case,  a “Substitute
Lender”). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with  respect to a Lender that is a
Non-Funding Lender or an Impacted Lender, the Administrative Agent may, but  shall not be obligated
to, obtain a Substitute Lender and execute an Assignment on behalf of such  Non-Funding Lender or
Impacted Lender at any time with three Business Days’ prior notice to such  Non-Funding Lender or
Impacted Lender (unless notice is not practicable under the circumstances) and  cause such Lender’s
Loans and Commitments to be sold and assigned, in whole or in part, at par.

(b) Procedure. To substitute such Affected Lender or  pay in full the
Obligations owed to such Affected Lender under such Facility as described in  the first
sentence of clause (a) above, the Borrower shall deliver a notice to the
Administrative Agent and such Affected Lender. The effectiveness of such  payment or
substitution shall be subject to the delivery to the Administrative Agent by  the Borrower
(or, as may be applicable in the case of a substitution, by the Substitute  Lender) of (i)
payment for the account of such Affected Lender, of, to the extent accrued  through, and
outstanding on, the effective date for such payment or substitution, all  Obligations owing
to such Affected Lender with respect to such Facility (including those that  will be owed
because of such payment and all Obligations that would be owed to such Lender  if it was
solely a Lender in such Facility), (ii) in the case of a payment in full  of the Obligations
owing to such Affected Lender in the Revolving Credit Facility, payment of any  amount that,
after giving effect to the termination of the Commitment of such Affected  Lender, is
required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.8(d) (Excess  Outstandings), (iii)
in the case of a substitution, (A) payment of any required assignment fee  set forth in
Section 11.2(c), unless waived by the Administrative Agent and  (B) an assumption
agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative  Agent whereby
the Substitute Lender shall, among other things, agree to be bound by the terms  of the Loan
Documents and assume the Commitment of the Affected Lender under such Facility  and (iv) in
the case of any Term Loan Lender that has failed to consent to an amendment  hereof that
would result in a Repricing Transaction, any amounts that may be owing pursuant  to
Section 2.11(c).

(c) Effectiveness. Upon satisfaction of the conditions  set forth in clause
(b) above or in the case of a substitution of a Non-Funding Lender or  Impacted Lender as
described in clause (a) above, the Administrative Agent shall record  such
substitution or payment in the Register, whereupon (i) in the case of any  payment in full in
any Facility, such Affected Lender’s Commitments in such Facility shall be  terminated and
(ii) in the case of any substitution in any Facility, (A) the  Affected Lender shall sell and
be relieved of, and the Substitute Lender shall purchase and assume, all rights  and claims
of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents with respect to such Facility,  except that
the Affected Lender shall retain such rights expressly providing

 that they survive the
repayment of the Obligations and the termination of the Commitments,  (B) the Substitute
Lender shall become a “Lender” hereunder having a Commitment  in such Facility in the
amount of such Affected Lender’s Commitment in such Facility and  (C) the Affected Lender
shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment to evidence  such
substitution and deliver any Note in its possession (or with respect to any  lost note,
execute and deliver an affidavit of loss in accordance with  Section 2.14(e)) to the
Borrower with respect to such Facility; provided, however, that  the failure
of any Affected Lender to execute any such Assignment or deliver any such Note  shall not
render such sale and purchase (or the corresponding assignment) invalid. Each  Lender agrees
that if the Borrower or the Administrative Agent exercises its option hereunder  to cause an
assignment by such Lender as an Affected Lender, such Lender shall, promptly  after receipt
of written notice of such election, execute and deliver all documentation  necessary to
effectuate such assignment in accordance with Section 11.2. In the  event that a
Lender does not comply with the requirements of the immediately preceding  sentence within
one Business Day after receipt of such notice, each Lender hereby authorizes  and directs the
Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender as  assignor, any
assignment agreement or other documentation as may be required to give effect  to an
assignment in accordance with Section 11.2 on behalf of an Affected  Lender and any
such documentation so executed by the Administrative Agent shall be effective  for purposes
of documenting an assignment pursuant to Section 11.2.

Section 2.19 Incremental Term Loans and Commitments.  (a) The Borrower may, by written
notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request Incremental Term  Loan Commitments in
an amount not to exceed the Incremental Term Loan Amount from one or more  Incremental Term Loan
Lenders, each of which must be (i) an existing Lender, (ii) any  Affiliate or Approved Fund of any
existing Lender or (iii) any other Person acceptable (which acceptance  shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) to the Administrative Agent (but only to the extent the  Administrative Agent’s
consent would be required under Section 11.2 for an assignment of  Loans to such Person)
(such Person in this clause (iii), an “Additional Lender”).  Such notice shall set forth (i)
the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments being requested (which  shall be in minimum
increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or such lesser  amount equal to the
remaining Incremental Term Loan Amount), (ii) the date on which such  Incremental Term Loan
Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than  seven (7) Business Days
nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice), and  (iii) whether such Incremental
Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional Term Loans or  commitments to make term
loans with terms different from the Term Loans (“Other Term  Loans”). The Borrower may, by
written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request  additional Revolving Credit
Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Additional Revolving Credit  Commitment Amount from one
or more Persons, each of which must be (i) an existing Lender,  (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund
of any existing Lender, (iii) an Additional Lender or (iv) a Debt  Fund Affiliate or a Non-Debt Fund
Affiliate; provided, that (A) the aggregate amount of all  additional Revolving Credit
Commitments of Debt Fund Affiliates and Non-Debt Fund Affiliates established  from and after the
Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall not exceed  $7,500,000, (B) no Debt Fund
Affiliate or Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall be permitted to provide any  additional Revolving Credit
Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.19 if, immediately after  giving effect thereto,
Affiliated Lenders shall collectively constitute more than three  (3) Lenders and (C) no Non-Debt
Fund Affiliate shall be permitted to provide any additional Revolving Credit  Commitment pursuant to
this Section 2.19 if, immediately after giving effect thereto, the  Affiliated Lender
Condition shall not be satisfied. Such notice shall set forth (i) the  amount of the additional
Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum  increments of $500,000 and
a minimum amount of $1,000,000 or such lesser amount equal to the remaining  Additional Revolving
Credit Commitment Amount) and (ii) the date on which such additional  Revolving Credit Commitments
are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than seven  (7) Business Days (or less
than one

(1) Business Day in the case of  any additional Revolving Credit Commitments to be provided
by Debt Fund Affiliates or Non-Debt Fund Affiliates) nor more than sixty  (60) days after the date
of such notice). Except in the case of any additional Revolving Credit  Commitments to be provided
by Debt Fund Affiliates or Non-Debt Fund Affiliates, the Borrower will first  seek Additional
Revolving Credit Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be  entitled to agree or
decline to participate in its sole discretion) and, if additional commitments  are needed, from
additional Persons who will become Revolving Credit Lenders in connection  herewith in accordance
with Section 11.2 and the foregoing provisions of this  Section 2.19. The Borrower
and each Person providing an additional Revolving Credit Commitment shall  execute and deliver to
the Administrative Agent an Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption  Agreement and such
other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to  evidence the additional
Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Person. The terms and provisions of  such additional
Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Loans made under such additional  Revolving Credit
Commitments shall be identical to those of the existing Revolving Credit  Commitments and Revolving
Loans, respectively; provided that no Debt Fund Affiliate or Non-Debt  Fund Affiliate shall
be permitted to receive any fees or discount in connection with any additional  Revolving Credit
Commitment that are not paid to Revolving Credit Lenders generally pursuant to  Section 2.11
(including, without limitation, any arrangement fees, upfront fees or original  issue discount).

(b) The Borrower will first seek Incremental Term Loan  Commitments from existing
Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in  its sole
discretion) and, if additional commitments are needed, from additional banks,  financial
institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental Term  Loan Lenders
in connection therewith. The Borrower and each Incremental Term Loan Lender  shall execute
and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Term Loan Assumption  Agreement and
such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify  to evidence
the Incremental Term Loan Commitment of each Incremental Term Loan Lender.  Subject to the
restrictions set forth in the immediately succeeding sentence, the terms and  provisions of
the Incremental Term Loans shall be as set forth in the Incremental Term Loan  Assumption
Agreement; provided that such terms shall be no more favorable to the  lenders or
holders providing such Incremental Term Loans than those applicable to the  initial Term
Loans. Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the  final maturity
date of any Other Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Maturity Date for  Term Loans, (ii)
the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Other Term Loans shall be no  shorter than the
Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans and (iii) if the  All-In-Yield applicable
to the Other Term Loans being considered priced at the Eurodollar Rate is more  than twenty
five (25) basis points higher than the corresponding All-In-Yield  (calculated on the same
basis) then in effect for all existing Term Loans (or all existing Revolving  Loans) that are
priced at the Eurodollar Rate (the amount of such excess above twenty five  (25) basis points
being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then  the Applicable Margin
then in effect for all existing Term Loans and all existing Revolving Loans  shall
automatically (without requiring any consent of the Lenders) be increased by  the Yield
Differential, effective upon the making of the Other Term Loans being  considered. The
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness  of each
Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement and each Additional Revolving Credit  Commitment
Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the  effectiveness
of any Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement or Additional Revolving  Credit Commitment
Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but  only to the
extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term  Loan Commitment
and the Incremental Term Loans evidenced thereby or the additional Revolving  Credit
Commitment and additional Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, as applicable, and  the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower may revise this Agreement to evidence  such amendments.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term  Loan Commitment or additional
Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective under this  Section 2.19 unless
(i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in  paragraph (b) of
Section 3.2 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall  have received a
certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Responsible  Officer of the
Borrower, (ii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental  Term Loan
Assumption Agreement or Additional Revolving Credit Commitment Assumption  Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and  other closing
certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent  with those
delivered on the Closing Date under Section 3.1, (iii) the  Borrower’s Consolidated
First Lien Leverage Ratio the numerator of which shall be calculated on a pro  forma basis to
give effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Term  Loans to be
made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom, and the  denominator of which
shall equal the Borrower’s Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended  twelve
consecutive months with respect to which financial statements have been or were  required to
be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1, shall not exceed the  Borrower’s Consolidated
First Lien Leverage Ratio as of the Closing Date; provided, that  for
purposes of such calculations of the Borrower’s Consolidated First Lien  Leverage Ratio as of
the Closing Date, any Borrowing of Revolving Loans on the Closing Date to fund  additional
upfront fees incurred under the provisions of the Fee Letter under the heading  “Market Flex”
shall be excluded from Indebtedness for purposes of such calculations,  (iv) the Borrower’s
Consolidated Leverage Ratio the numerator of which shall be calculated on a pro  forma basis
to give effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental  Term Loans to be
made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom, and the  denominator of which
shall equal the Borrower’s Consolidated EBITDA for the most recently ended  twelve
consecutive months with respect to which financial statements have been or were  required to
be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1, shall not exceed the lesser  of (A) the
Consolidated Leverage Ratio permitted under Section 5.1 for the  last day of the most
recent Fiscal Quarter ending prior to such date and (B) the  Borrower’s Consolidated Closing
Leverage Ratio and (v) to the extent reasonably necessary to maintain the  continuing
priority of the Lien of the Mortgages as security for the Obligations, as  determined by the
Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion (x) the applicable Loan  Party party to any
Mortgages shall have entered into, and delivered to the Administrative Agent,  at the
direction and in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent a mortgage  modification or
new Mortgage in proper form for recording in the relevant jurisdiction and in a  form
reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (y) the Borrower  shall have caused to
be delivered to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties  an
endorsement to the title insurance policy, date down(s) or other evidence  reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent insuring that the priority of the Lien  of the
Mortgages as security for the Obligations has not changed and confirming and/or  insuring
that since the issuance of the title insurance policy there has been no change  in the
condition of title and there are no intervening liens or encumbrances which may  then or
thereafter take priority over the Lien of the Mortgages (other than those  expressly
permitted by Section 8.2) and (z) the Borrower shall have  delivered, at the request
of the Administrative Agent, to the Administrative Agent and/or all other  relevant third
parties all other items reasonably necessary to maintain the continuing  priority of the Lien
of the Mortgages as security for the Obligations.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the  Administrative Agent may, in
consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably  necessary to
ensure that all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when  originally made,
are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis.  This may be
accomplished by requiring each outstanding Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Term  Loans to be
converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Term Loans on the date of each  Incremental Term
Loan, or by allocating a portion of each Incremental Term Loan to each  outstanding Borrowing
of Eurodollar Rate Term Loans on a pro rata basis. Any conversion of Eurodollar  Term Loans
to Base Rate Term Loans required by the preceding sentence shall be subject to  Section
2.16. If any Incremental Term Loan is to be allocated to an existing  Interest Period for
a Borrowing of Eurodollar Rate Term Loans, then the interest rate thereon for  such Interest
Period and the other economic consequences thereof shall be as set forth in the  applicable
Incremental Term Loan Assumption Agreement. In addition, to the extent any  Incremental Term
Loans are not Other Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under  Section
2.6(b) required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans  shall be
ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term  Loans and shall
be further increased for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent  necessary to avoid
any reduction in the amortization payments to which the Term Loan Lenders were  entitled
before such recalculation. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the  Administrative
Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be  reasonably
necessary to ensure that, upon the effectiveness of each additional Revolving  Credit
Commitment, (i) Revolving Loans made under such additional Revolving  Credit Commitment are
included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis  and (ii) the
Lender providing each additional Revolving Credit Commitment shares ratably in  the aggregate
Pro Rata Outstandings under the Revolving Credit Facility. This  Section 2.19 shall
supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12, 11.1 or  11.9 to the
contrary.

Section 2.20 Extension of Loans and Commitments.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this  Agreement, pursuant to one or more
offers (each, an “Extension Offer”) made from time to time by  the Borrower to all
Term Loan Lenders of Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Incremental Term  Loan Lenders
of Incremental Term Loans with a like Maturity Date, all Lenders of Other Term  Loans with a
like Maturity Date, all Lenders of Other Refinancing Term Loans with a like  Maturity Date,
all Revolving Credit Lenders with Revolving Credit Commitments with a like  Maturity Date or
all Lenders with Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments with a like  Maturity Date,
in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal  amount of the
respective Loans or the aggregate amount of the Commitments with the same  Maturity Date, as
the case may be) and on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower may  from time to
time offer to extend the maturity date for any Term Loans, Incremental Term  Loans, Other
Term Loans, Other Refinancing Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, and/or  Other
Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such  Loans and/or
Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Extension Offer (including by  increasing
the interest rate or fees payable in respect of such Loans and/or Commitments  (and related
outstandings) and/or modifying the amortization schedule in respect of such  Lender’s Loans)
(each, an “Extension”, and each group of Loans or Commitments,  as applicable, in
each case as so extended, as well as the original Loans and Commitments (in  each case not so
extended), being a tranche; any Extended Term Loans, Extended Incremental Term  Loans or
Extended Other Term Loans shall constitute a separate tranche of Term Loans  from the tranche
of Term Loans from which they were converted, and any Extended Revolving Credit  Commitments
shall constitute a separate tranche of Revolving Credit Commitments from the  tranche of
Revolving Credit Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the  following terms
are satisfied:

(i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred  and be continuing at the
time an Extension Offer is delivered to the Lenders or at the time of the  Extension;

(ii) except as to interest rates, fees and final maturity  (which shall, subject
to the requirements of this Section 2.20, be determined by Borrower  and set
forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the Revolving Credit Commitment, or  Other
Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment of any Revolving Credit Lender (an
“Extending Revolving Credit Lender”) extended pursuant to an  Extension (an
“Extended Revolving Credit Commitment”), and the related  outstandings, shall
be a Revolving Credit Commitment, or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit  Commitment
(or related outstandings, as the case may be) with the same terms as the  original
Revolving Credit Commitments or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments  (and
related outstandings); provided that (x) subject to the provisions  of
Sections 2.3(e) and 2.4(h) to the extent dealing with  Letters of
Credit and Swing Loans which mature or expire after a Maturity Date when there  exist
Extended Revolving Credit Commitments with a longer Maturity Date, all Letters  of
Credit and Swing Loans shall be participated in on a pro rata basis by all  Lenders
with Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit  Commitments
in accordance with their pro rata share of the aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitment, or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitment (and except as  provided
in Sections 2.3(e) and 2.4(h), without giving effect to  changes
thereto on an earlier Maturity Date with respect to Swing Loans and Letters of
Credit theretofore incurred or issued) and all borrowings under Revolving  Credit
Commitments, or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments and repayments
thereunder shall be made on a pro rata basis (except for (A) payments of  interest
and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and  related
outstandings) and (B) repayments required upon the Maturity Date for the
non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other Refinancing Revolving  Credit
Commitments) and (y) at no time shall there be Revolving Credit  Commitments or Other
Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments hereunder (including Extended  Revolving
Credit Commitments and any original Revolving Credit Commitments) which have  more
than three different Maturity Dates;

(iii) except as to interest rates, fees, amortization,  final maturity date,
premium, required prepayment dates and participation in prepayments (which  shall,
subject to the succeeding clauses (iv), (v) and (vi), be
determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Extension Offer), the  Term
Loans of any Term Loan Lender (an “Extending Term Loan  Lender”) extended
pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall have  the same terms
as the tranche of Term Loans subject to such Extension Offer;

(iv) the final maturity date for any Extended Term Loans  shall be no earlier
than the then latest Maturity Date hereunder and the amortization schedule
applicable to such Extended Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.6(b)  for
periods prior to the applicable Maturity Date may not be increased;

(v) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended  Term Loans shall be
no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term  Loans
extended thereby;

(vi) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro  rata basis or a less than
pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or  mandatory
repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the  respective
Extension Offer;

(vii) if the aggregate principal amount of applicable  Term Loans (calculated on
the face amount thereof), Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other Refinancing
Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which  applicable
Term Loan Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall have
accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate  principal
amount of applicable Term Loans, Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other  Refinancing
Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the
Borrower pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the applicable Term Loans,  Revolving
Loans, or Other Refinancing Loans, as the case may be, of the applicable Term  Loan
Lenders or Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended  ratably
up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to
exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Loan Lenders  or
Revolving Credit Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Extension  Offer;

(viii) all documentation in respect of such Extension  shall be consistent with
the foregoing;

(ix) the Extension shall not become effective unless, on  the proposed effective
date of the Extension, (x) the Borrower shall deliver to the  Administrative Agent
one or more legal opinions reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent  and a
certificate of an authorized officer of each Loan Party dated the applicable  date of
the Extension and executed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party  certifying
and attaching the resolutions adopted by such Loan Party approving or  consenting to
such extension and (y) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2  shall be
satisfied or waived (with all references in such Section to any credit event  being
deemed to be references to the Extension on the applicable date of the  Extension)
and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect  dated
the applicable date of the Extension and executed by a financial officer of the
Borrower;

(x) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition (as  defined below) shall be
satisfied unless waived by the Borrower; and

(xi) the Minimum Tranche Amount (as defined below) shall  be satisfied unless
waived by the Administrative Agent.

(b) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the  Borrower pursuant to this
Section 2.20, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute  voluntary or mandatory
payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.7 or 2.8  and (ii) no
Extension Offer is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum  increment;
provided that (A) the Borrower may at its election specify as a  condition (a
“Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such  Extension that a minimum
amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Offer in  Borrower’s sole
discretion and may be waived by Borrower) of Term Loans, Other Refinancing Term  Loans or
Revolving Credit Commitments, or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments  (as
applicable) of any or all applicable tranches be tendered and (B) no  tranche of Extended
Loans shall be in an amount of less than $25,000,000 (the “Minimum  Tranche Amount”),
unless such Minimum Tranche Amount is waived by the Administrative Agent.  Subject to
compliance with the terms of this Section 2.20, the Administrative  Agent, the L/C
Issuer and the Lenders hereby consent to the Extensions and the other  transactions
contemplated by this Section 2.20 (including, for the avoidance of  doubt, payment of
any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or  Extended
Revolving Credit Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant  Extension
Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement  (including,
without limitation, Sections 2.12, 11.1 and 11.9) or  any other Loan
Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other  transaction
contemplated by this Section 2.20.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth  herein, no consent of any
Lender, the L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent shall be required to  effectuate any
Extension, other than the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension  with respect to
one or more of its Term Loans, Other Refinancing Term Loans, Revolving Credit  Commitments,
and/or Other Refinancing Revolving Credit Commitments (or a portion thereof);  provided that
the consent of the L/C Issuer shall be required to effect an Extension of  Revolving Credit
Commitments. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and  all
obligations in respect thereof shall be Secured Obligations under this  Agreement and the
other Loan Documents that are secured by all or a portion of the Collateral on  a pari passu
or junior lien basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement  and the
other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the  Administrative Agent to
enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the  Borrower as
may be necessary in order to establish new tranches or sub-tranches in respect  of Revolving
Credit Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as  may be
necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent  and the
Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new tranches or  subtranches, in each
case on terms consistent with this Section 2.20. Without limiting  the foregoing, in
connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their  expense) amend
(and the Administrative Agent is hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that  has a maturity
date prior to the then latest Maturity Date so that such maturity date is  extended to the
then latest Maturity Date (or such later date as may be advised by local  counsel to the
Administrative Agent).

(d) In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall  provide the Administrative
Agent at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as may be  agreed by the
Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such  procedures, if
any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in  each case
acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.20.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained  herein, no Lender shall be
required to accept an Extension Offer.

Section 2.21 Loan Repurchases.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth or  referred to below and to
Section 11.2, the Borrower may from time to time, at its  discretion, conduct
modified Dutch auctions in order to facilitate the purchase of its Term Loans  by Purchasing
Borrower Parties (each, a “Purchase Offer”), each such  Purchase Offer to be managed
exclusively by the Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Auction  Manager”),
so long as the following conditions are satisfied or waived:

(i) each Purchase Offer shall be conducted in accordance  with the procedures,
terms and conditions set forth in this Section 2.21 and the Auction
Procedures;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred  and be continuing on
the date of the delivery of each Auction Notice and at the time of purchase of  any
Term Loans in connection with any Purchase Offer;

CREDIT  AGREEMENT

71

 

(iii) the principal amount (calculated on the face amount  thereof) of Term
Loans that such Purchasing Borrower Party offers to purchase in any such  Purchase
Offer shall be no less than $2,500,000, unless another amount is agreed to by  the
Administrative Agent (such agreement not to be unreasonably withheld or  delayed) or
such lesser amount to the extent the amount of outstanding Term Loans is less  than
$2,500,000;

(iv) immediately after giving effect to any purchase of  Term Loans by any
Purchasing Borrower Party pursuant to this Section 2.21, there  shall be no
Revolving Credit Outstandings other than undrawn amounts of Letters of Credit;

(v) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the  face amount thereof) of
all Term Loans so purchased by a Purchasing Borrower Party shall automatically  be
cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the settlement date of the relevant
purchase (and may not be resold), and in no event shall any Purchasing Borrower
Party be entitled to any vote hereunder in connection with such Term Loans;

(vi) no more than one Purchase Offer may be ongoing at  any one time;

(vii) any Purchase Offer shall be offered to all Term  Loan Lenders on a pro
rata basis; and

(viii) no purchase of any Term Loans shall be made from  the proceeds of any
Incremental Term Loans.

(b) The Borrower must terminate any Purchase Offer if it  fails to satisfy one or more
of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met (and have not  been waived) at
the time which otherwise would have been the time of purchase of Term Loans  pursuant to such
Purchase Offer. If a Purchasing Borrower Party commences any Purchase Offer  (and all
relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied or  waived at the
time of the commencement of such Purchase Offer have in fact been satisfied or  waived), and
if at such time of commencement such Purchasing Borrower Party reasonably  believes that all
required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied or  waived at the time
of the consummation of such Purchase Offer shall be satisfied or waived, then  such
Purchasing Borrower Party shall have no liability to any Term Loan Lender for  any
termination of such Purchase Offer as a result of its failure to satisfy one or  more of the
conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which  otherwise would
have been the time of consummation of such Purchase Offer, and any such failure  shall not
result in any Default or Event of Default hereunder. With respect to all  purchases of Term
Loans made by a Purchasing Borrower Party pursuant to this  Section 2.21, (x) the
Borrower shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and  unpaid
interest (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant offering  documents), if
any, on the purchased Term Loans up to the settlement date of such purchase,  and (y) such
purchases (and the payments made by such Purchasing Borrower Party (and the  cancellation of
the purchased Loans in the case of any Loans purchased by a Purchasing Borrower  Party, in
each case in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory  payments or
prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.7 or 2.8 hereof.

(c) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby  consent to the Purchase Offers and
the other transactions effected pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of  this
Section 2.21 (provided that, notwithstanding anything to the  contrary
contained herein, no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such  Purchase
Offer). For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood and agreed that the  provisions of
Section 2.16(a), Section 2.12 and  Section 11.9 will not apply (but

Section 11.3 and Section 11.4 to the same extent as if  each reference
therein to the “Administrative Agent” were a reference to the Auction  Manager, and the
Administrative Agent shall cooperate with the Auction Manager as reasonably  requested by the
Auction Manager in order to enable it to perform its responsibilities and  duties in

may obtain, from any Lender or any Refinancing Lender, Credit Agreement  Refinancing Indebtedness in

Other Refinancing Loans, Other Refinancing Commitments, Incremental Term Loans,  Incremental Term
Loan Commitments, Extended Loans or Extended Commitments), in the form of Other  Refinancing Loans
or Other Refinancing Commitments in each case pursuant to a Refinancing  Amendment; provided that

pricing, premiums and optional prepayment or redemption terms as may be agreed  by the Borrower and
the Lenders thereof. Any Other Refinancing Loans or Other Refinancing  Commitments, as applicable,
may participate on a pro rata basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not  on a greater than pro
rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified  in the applicable
Refinancing Amendment. The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be  subject to the
satisfaction or waiver on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth  in Section

(including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject  thereto as Other
Refinancing Loans and/or Other Refinancing Commitments). Any Refinancing  Amendment may, without the
consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the  other Loan Documents
as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the  Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22. This  Section 2.22 shall
supersede any provisions in Sections 2.12, 11.1 or  11.9 to the contrary.

Sections 8.4 and 8.7, and (b) preserve and maintain its  rights (charter and

the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.2 Compliance with Laws, Etc. Each Group Member shall  comply with all
applicable Requirements of Law, Contractual Obligations and Permits, except for  such failures to
comply that would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect.

Section 7.3 Payment of Obligations. Each Group Member shall pay  or discharge before
they become delinquent (a) all material claims, taxes, assessments,  charges and levies imposed by
any Governmental Authority and (b) all other material lawful claims that  if unpaid would, by the

in good faith by proper proceedings diligently conducted and for which adequate  reserves are
maintained on the books of the appropriate Group Member in accordance with  GAAP.

 and as is
customarily carried by businesses of the size and  character of the business of the Group Members
(it being agreed by the Administrative Agent that the insurance policies,  amounts of coverage and
the companies used by the Borrower on the Closing Date are satisfactory to the  Administrative Agent
as of the Closing Date) and (b) subject to Section 7.15 with  respect to insurance in effect
on the Closing Date, cause all such insurance (other than worker’s  compensation insurance policies)
relating to any property or business of any Loan Party to name the  Administrative Agent on behalf
of the Secured Parties as additional insured or lender loss payee, as agent for  the Lenders, as
appropriate, and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such insurance  to provide that no
cancellation, material addition in amount or material change in coverage shall  be effective until
after thirty (30) days’ notice (ten (10) days’ notice of  nonpayment) (or any shorter period or

account, in which full, true and correct entries shall be made in accordance  with GAAP and all
other applicable Requirements of Law of all financial transactions and the  assets and business of
each Group Member.

Section 7.7 Access to Books and Property. Each Group Member  shall permit the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and any Related Person of any of them, as  often as reasonably
requested, at any reasonable time during normal business hours and with  reasonable advance notice
(except that, during the continuance of an Event of Default, no such notice  shall be required) to
(a) visit and inspect the property of each Group Member and examine and  make copies of and
abstracts from, the corporate (and similar), financial, operating and other  books and records of
each Group Member, (b) discuss the affairs, finances and accounts of each  Group Member with any
officer or director of any Group Member and (c) communicate directly with  any registered certified
public accountants (including the Group Members’ Accountants) of any Group  Member. Each Group
Member shall authorize their respective registered certified public accountants  (including the
Group Members’ Accountants) to communicate directly with the  Administrative Agent, the Lenders and
their Related Persons and to disclose to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders  and their Related
Persons all financial statements and other documents and information as they  might have and the
Administrative Agent or any Lender reasonably requests with respect to any  Group Member;
provided that (i) any such visit or inspection shall be coordinated  through the
Administrative Agent, (ii) unless an Event of Default shall have occurred  and be continuing, only
one (1) such visit or inspection during any twelve month period shall be  at the cost of the Group

all applicable Environmental Laws (including by implementing any Remedial  Action necessary to
achieve such compliance or that is required by orders and directives of any  Governmental Authority)
except for failures to comply or maintain compliance that would not, in the  aggregate, have a
Material Adverse Effect. Without limiting the foregoing, if an Event of Default  relating to
Environmental Laws is continuing or if the Administrative Agent at any time has  a reasonable basis
to believe that there exist violations of Environmental Laws by any Group  Member or that there
exist any Environmental Liabilities, in each case, that would have, in the  aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect, then each Group Member shall, promptly upon receipt of written  request from the
Administrative Agent, cause the performance of, and allow the Administrative  Agent and its Related
Persons reasonable access to such real property that is the subject of the  violation of
Environmental Laws or Environmental Liabilities for the purpose of conducting,  such environmental
audits and assessments, including subsurface sampling of soil and groundwater,  and cause the
preparation of such reports, in each case as the Administrative Agent may from  time to time
reasonably request. Such audits, assessments and reports, to the extent not  conducted by the
Administrative Agent or any of its Related Persons, shall be conducted and  prepared by reputable
environmental consulting firms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative  Agent and shall be in
form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

written notice to the Borrower and in addition to any other right or remedy  provided under any Loan
Document or by any applicable Requirement of Law, do each of the following:  (a) declare all or any

obligation any Lender may have hereunder to make any Loan and any L/C Issuer  may have hereunder to
Issue any Letter of Credit or (b) declare immediately due and payable all  or part of any Obligation
arising under the Loan Documents (including any accrued but unpaid interest  thereon), whereupon the
same shall become immediately due and payable, without presentment, demand,  protest or further
notice or other requirements of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly  waived by the Borrower
(and, to the extent provided in any other Loan Document, the other Loan  Parties); provided,
however, that, effective immediately upon the occurrence of the Events  of Default specified
in Section 9.1(e)(ii), (x) the Commitments of each Lender to  make Loans and the commitment
of each L/C Issuer to Issue Letters of Credit shall each automatically be  terminated and (y) each
Obligation arising under the Loan Documents (including in each case all accrued  but unpaid interest
thereon) shall automatically become and be due and payable, without  presentment, demand, protest or
further notice or other requirement of any kind, all of which are hereby  expressly waived by the
Borrower (and, to the extent provided in any other Loan Document, any other  Loan Party).

Section 9.3 Actions in Respect of Letters of Credit. At any  time (i) upon the

the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent in immediately available  funds at the
Administrative Agent’s office referred to in Section 11.11,  for deposit in a L/C Cash
Collateral Account, the amount required so that, after such payment, the  aggregate funds on deposit
in the L/C Cash Collateral Accounts equals or exceeds 105% of the L/C  Obligations for all Letters
of Credit at such time (not to exceed, in the case of clause (iii)  above, the payment to be
applied pursuant to Section 2.12 to provide cash collateral for  Letters of Credit).

Section 9.4 Governmental Approvals. Notwithstanding anything to  the contrary contained
herein or in any other Loan Document, any foreclosure on, sale, transfer or  other disposition of
any Collateral or any other action taken in accordance with this Agreement or  proposed to be taken
hereunder that would affect the operational, voting, or other control of any  Loan Party or affect
the ownership of the FCC Licenses shall be pursuant to the Communications Laws  and, if and to the
extent required thereby, subject to the prior consent of the FCC and any other  applicable
Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained  herein, the
Administrative Agent and the other Secured Parties shall not take any action  pursuant hereto that
would constitute or result in any assignment of the FCC Licenses or transfer of  control of any Loan
Party if such assignment or transfer of control would require, under then  existing law (including
the Communications Laws), the prior approval of the FCC, without first  obtaining such approval of
the FCC and notifying the FCC of the consummation of such assignment or  transfer of control (to the
extent required to do so). During the existence of an Event of Default, each  Loan Party agrees to
take any reasonable, lawful action which the Administrative Agent may  reasonably request in order
to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Administrative  Agent and Lenders by
this Agreement, including specifically, after the occurrence and during the  continuance of an Event
of Default, the use of such Loan Party’s commercially reasonable efforts  to assist in obtaining any
approval of the FCC and any other Governmental Authority that is then required  under the
Communications Laws or under any other law for any action or transaction  contemplated by this
Agreement, including, without limitation, the sale or transfer of Collateral.  Such efforts shall
include, without limitation, sharing with the Administrative Agent any FCC  registration numbers,
account numbers and passwords for the FCC’s electronic databases and  preparing, certifying and
filing (or causing to be prepared, certified and filed) with the FCC any  portion of any application
or applications for consent to the assignment of the FCC Licenses or transfer  of control of any
Loan Party required to be filed under the Communications Laws for approval of  any sale or transfer
of Collateral and/or the FCC Licenses.

Section 9.5 Borrower’s Right to Cure. Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary
contained in Section 9.1, in the event of any Event of Default  under any covenant set forth
in Sections 5.1 or 5.2, any equity contribution in respect  of the Stock of the
Borrower (in the form of common equity, Qualified Stock or other equity having  terms reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent) made to the Borrower after the last day  of any Fiscal
Quarter and on or prior to the day that is ten (10) days after the day on  which financial
statements are required to be delivered for that Fiscal Quarter (or, in the  case of the fourth
Fiscal Quarter, for such Fiscal Year) will, at the irrevocable request of the  Borrower, be included
in the calculation of Consolidated EBITDA solely for the purposes of  determining compliance with
such financial covenants at the end of such Fiscal Quarter and any subsequent  period that includes
such Fiscal Quarter (any such equity contribution, a “Specified Equity  Contribution”);
provided that (a) no Specified Equity Contribution shall be given  effect pursuant hereto
for any Fiscal Quarter unless, immediately after giving effect to such  requested Specified Equity
Contribution, there will be at least three (3) Fiscal Quarters in the  Relevant Four Fiscal Quarter
Period (as defined below) in which no Specified Equity Contribution has been  made, (b) the amount
of any Specified Equity Contribution and the use of proceeds therefrom will be  no greater than the
amount required to cause Borrower to be in compliance with the financial  covenants, (c) all
Specified Equity Contributions and the use of proceeds therefrom will be  disregarded for all
purposes under the Loan Documents other than determining compliance with the  covenants set forth in
Sections 5.1 and 5.2 (including calculating adjusted  Consolidated EBITDA for
purposes of determining basket levels, pricing and other items governed by  reference to
Consolidated EBITDA), (d) there shall be no more than two  (2) Specified Equity Contributions made
in the aggregate after the Closing Date, (e) the proceeds of all Specified  Equity Contributions
will be promptly applied by the Borrower to prepay amounts outstanding under  the Term Loan Facility
and (f) any Loans prepaid with the proceeds of Specified Equity  Contributions shall be deemed
outstanding for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant set forth  in Sections
5.1 or 5.2 for the current Fiscal Quarter. For purposes of this  paragraph, the term
“Relevant Four Fiscal Quarter Period” shall mean, with respect  to any requested Specified
Equity Contribution, the four Fiscal Quarter period ending on (and including)  the Fiscal Quarter in
which Consolidated EBITDA will be increased as a result of such Specified  Equity Contribution.

transmitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders or L/C Issuers, the  Administrative Agent
shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or L/C Issuer  with any credit or

of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order,  (ii) a material
breach of the Administrative Agent’s obligations under the Loan Documents,  as determined by
a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order  or (iii) any
dispute among the Indemnitees other than (x) any claims against the  Administrative Agent in
its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an administrative agent or any  similar role under
the Loan Documents and (y) any claims arising out of any act or omission  on the part of the
Loan Parties or their Affiliates.

(c) To the extent required by any applicable law, the  Administrative Agent may withhold
from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable  withholding Tax. If
any payment is made to any Lender by the Administrative Agent without the  applicable
withholding Tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent  has paid over
the applicable withholding Tax to the IRS or any other Governmental Authority,  or the IRS or
any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent  did not
properly withhold Tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender  because the
appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such  Lender
failed to notify the Administrative Agent of a change in circumstance which  rendered the
exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax ineffective or for any other  reason not
attributable to the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful  misconduct, such
Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid,  directly or
indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as Tax or otherwise, including any  penalties or
interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated  internal costs
and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred. The Administrative Agent may offset  against any
payment to any Lender under a Loan Document, any applicable withholding Tax  that was
required to be withheld from any prior payment to such Lender but which was not  so withheld,
as well as any other amounts for which the Administrative Agent is entitled to
indemnification from such Lender under this Section 10.8(c).

Borrower, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if no such date is  set forth therein,

any provision of any Loan Document other than with respect to any actions taken  or omitted
to be taken while such retiring Administrative Agent was, or because such  Administrative
Agent had been, validly acting as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents  and (iv)
subject to its rights under Section 10.3, the retiring  Administrative Agent shall
take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor  Administrative
Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents. Effective  immediately
upon its acceptance of a valid appointment as Administrative Agent, a successor
Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights,  powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan  Documents.

(c) Any L/C Issuer may resign at any time by delivering  notice of such resignation to
the Administrative Agent, effective on the date set forth in such notice or, if  no such date
is set forth therein, on the date such notice shall be effective. Upon such  resignation, the
L/C Issuer shall remain an L/C Issuer and shall retain its rights and  obligations in its
capacity as such (other than any obligation to Issue Letters of Credit but  including the
right to receive fees or to have Lenders participate in any L/C Reimbursement  Obligation
thereof) with respect to Letters of Credit Issued by such L/C Issuer prior to  the date of
such resignation and shall otherwise be discharged from all other duties and  obligations
under the Loan Documents.

Section 10.10 Release of Collateral or Guarantors. Each Lender  and L/C Issuer
(including in its capacities as a potential Secured Banking Services Provider  or Secured Hedging
Counterparty) hereby consents to the automatic release and hereby directs the  Administrative Agent

(b) any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the  benefit of the Secured Parties
against (i) any Collateral that is Sold by a Loan Party in a Sale  permitted by the Loan
Documents (including pursuant to a valid waiver or consent), to the extent all  Liens
required to be granted in such Collateral pursuant to Section 7.10  after giving
effect to such Sale have been granted, (ii) any property subject to a Lien  permitted
hereunder in reliance upon Section 8.2(d) or (e) and  (iii) all of the

satisfaction in full of all Loans, all L/C Reimbursement Obligations and all  other
Obligations (including Obligations arising under Secured Hedging Agreements and  Secured
Banking Services Obligations) that the Administrative Agent has been notified  (by or on
behalf of the holder of such Obligations) in writing are then due and payable  (or will be
due and payable following notice or expiration of any applicable grace period),  (C) deposit
of cash collateral with respect to all contingent Obligations (or, in the case  of any L/C

Secured Banking Services Obligations, any other arrangements satisfactory to  the applicable
Secured Hedging Counterparty or Secured Banking Services Provider shall have  been made), in
amounts and on terms and conditions and with parties satisfactory to the  Administrative
Agent (or, in the case of contingent Obligations arising under Secured Hedging  Agreements or
contingent Secured Banking Services Obligations, satisfactory to the applicable  Secured
Hedging Counterparty or Secured Banking Services Provider, as applicable) and  each
Indemnitee that is owed such Obligations and (D) to the extent requested  by the
Administrative Agent, receipt by the Secured Parties of liability releases from  the Loan
Parties each in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent.

Each Secured  Party hereby directs the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent  hereby
agrees, promptly (but in any event, within three Business Days of receipt of  advance notice from
the Borrower and documentation prepared to the reasonable satisfaction of the  Administrative
Agent), to execute and deliver or file such documents and to perform other  actions reasonably
necessary to release the guaranties and Liens when and as directed in this  Section 10.10.

Section 10.11 Additional Secured Parties. The benefit of the  provisions of the Loan
Documents directly relating to the Collateral or any Lien granted thereunder  shall extend to and be
available to any Secured Party that is not a Lender or L/C Issuer as long as,  by accepting such
benefits, such Secured Party agrees, as among the Administrative Agent and all  other Secured
Parties, that such Secured Party is bound by (and, if requested by the  Administrative Agent,
(except in the case of Secured Hedging Counterparties and Secured Banking  Services Providers) shall
confirm such agreement in a writing in form and substance acceptable to the  Administrative Agent)
this Article X, Section 11.8 (Right of Setoff),  Section 11.9
(Sharing of Payments) and Section 11.20  (Confidentiality) and the decisions
and actions of the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (or, where  expressly required by
the terms of this Agreement, a greater proportion of the Lenders) to the same  extent a Lender is
bound; provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing,  (a) such Secured
Party shall be bound by Section 10.8 only to the extent of  Liabilities, costs and expenses
with respect to or otherwise relating to the Collateral held for the benefit of  such Secured Party,
in which case the obligations of such Secured Party thereunder shall not be  limited by any concept
of Pro Rata Share or similar concept, (b) except as set forth specifically  herein, each of the
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers shall be entitled to act  at its sole
discretion, without regard to the interest of such Secured Party, regardless of  whether any
Obligation to such Secured Party thereafter remains outstanding, is deprived of  the benefit of the
Collateral, becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in jeopardy  thereby, and without any
duty or liability to such Secured Party or any such Obligation and  (c) except as set forth
specifically herein, such Secured Party shall not have any right to be notified  of, consent to,
direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in  respect of the
Collateral or under any Loan Document.

(b) Each waiver or consent under any Loan Document shall  be effective only in the
specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No  notice to or
demand on any Loan Party shall entitle any Loan Party to any notice or demand  in the same,
similar or other circumstances. No failure on the part of any Secured Party to  exercise, and
no delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof,  nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further  exercise thereof
or the exercise of any other right.

Section 11.2 Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect.  (a) Binding
Effect. This Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been  executed by the Borrower
and the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have been  notified by each
Lender and L/C Issuer that such Lender or L/C Issuer has executed it.  Thereafter, it shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of, but only to the benefit of, the  Borrower (except for each
Section of Article 10 other than Section 10.10), the  Administrative Agent, each
Lender and L/C Issuer and, to the extent provided in Section 10.11,  each other Indemnitee
and Secured Party and, in each case, their respective successors and permitted  assigns. Except as
expressly provided in any Loan Document (including in  Section 10.9), none of the Borrower,
any L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent shall have the right to assign any  rights or obligations
hereunder or any interest herein.

(b) Right to Assign. Each Lender may sell, transfer,  negotiate or assign all or
a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion  of its
Commitments and its rights and obligations with respect to Loans and Letters of  Credit) to
(i) any existing Lender (other than (w) a Non-Funding Lender or  Impacted Lender, (x) a
natural Person, (y) the Borrower, the Permitted Investors or any of their  respective
Affiliates except, in each case, in accordance with clause (g) below and  (z) a
holder of obligations under the Second Lien Credit Agreement or any  Subordinated Debt or an
Affiliate of such a holder), (ii) any Affiliate or Approved Fund of any  existing Lender
(other than (x) a Non-Funding Lender or Impacted Lender, (y) a  natural Person and (z) the
Borrower, the Permitted Investors or any of their respective Affiliates except,  in each
case, in accordance with clause (g) below) or (iii) any other  Person (other than (x)
a natural Person and (y) the Borrower, the Permitted Investors or any of  their respective
Affiliates except, in each case, pursuant to clause (g) below)  acceptable (which
acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to the Administrative  Agent and,
as long as no Event of Default is continuing, the Borrower (which acceptance  shall be deemed
to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within five Business Days  of a written
request for such acceptance); provided that the written consent of the  Borrower
shall always be required for assignments to Disqualified Competitors and, with  respect to
Sales of Revolving Credit Commitments, each L/C Issuer and Swingline Lender  that is a
Lender; provided, however, that (w) such Sales do not have  to be ratable
between the Facilities but must be ratable among the obligations owing to and  owed by such
Lender with respect to a Facility, (x) for each Facility, the aggregate  outstanding
principal amount (determined as of the effective date of the applicable  Assignment) of the
Loans, Commitments and L/C Obligations subject to any such Sale shall be in a  minimum amount
of $1,000,000, unless such Sale is made to an existing Lender or an Affiliate  or Approved
Fund of any existing Lender, is of the assignor’s (together with its

119

 

Affiliates
and Approved
Funds) entire interest in such Facility or is made with the prior written  consent of the
Borrower (to the extent the Borrower’s consent is otherwise required) and  the Administrative
Agent, (y) such Sales by Lenders who are Non-Funding Lenders due to clause  (a) of the
definition of Non-Funding Lender shall be subject to the Administrative  Agent’s prior
written consent in all instances, unless in connection with such sale, such  Non-Funding
Lender cures, or causes the cure of, its Non-Funding Lender status as  contemplated in
Section 2.2(c)(v) and (z) any assignments of loans and  commitments under the
Facilities entered into to complete a Successful Syndication shall not be  subject to the
consent, minimum amounts and fee provisions set forth in this  Section 11.2 (except
for the Borrower’s right to consent to assignments to Disqualified  Competitors). The
Administrative Agent’s refusal to accept a Sale to a holder of obligations  under the Second
Lien Credit Agreement or any Subordinated Debt or an Affiliate of such a holder  (including
any such holder that is a Lender), or to a Person that would be (or could  reasonably be
expected to become) a Non-Funding Lender or an Impacted Lender, or the  imposition of
conditions or limitations (including limitations on voting) upon Sales to such  Persons,
shall not be deemed to be unreasonable. Notwithstanding anything to the  contrary contained
herein, GE Capital shall have the absolute right, without obligation to obtain  any consent
of the Loan Parties or any Lender, to sell or assign to third parties such  portion of GE
Capital’s Commitments and Loans as GE Capital deems necessary to enable GE  Capital and its
Affiliates to ensure that they have no attributable stake in the Borrower for  purposes of
the regulations of the FCC, or any successor agency thereto, or to otherwise  comply with FCC
regulations.

(c) Procedure. The parties to each Sale made in  reliance on clause (b)
above (other than those described in clause (e) or (f) below)  shall
execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment via an electronic  settlement
system designated by the Administrative Agent (or if previously agreed with the
Administrative Agent, via a manual execution and delivery of the assignment)  evidencing such
Sale, together with any existing Note subject to such Sale (or any affidavit of  loss
therefor (including customary indemnity provisions provided therein) acceptable  to the
Administrative Agent), any tax forms required to be delivered pursuant to  Section
2.17(f) and, unless waived by the Administrative Agent, payment of an  assignment fee in
the amount of $3,500, provided that (1) if a Sale by a Lender is made to  an Affiliate or an
Approved Fund of such assigning Lender, then no assignment fee shall be due in  connection
with such Sale, and (2) if a Sale by a Lender is made to an assignee that  is not an
Affiliate or Approved Fund of such assignor Lender, and concurrently to one or  more
Affiliates or Approved Funds of such assignee, then only one assignment fee of  $3,500 shall
be due in connection with such Sale. Upon receipt of all the foregoing, and  conditioned upon
such receipt and, if such assignment is made in accordance with Section
11.2(b)(iii), upon the Administrative Agent (and the Borrower, if  applicable) consenting
to such Assignment, from and after the effective date specified in such  Assignment, the
Administrative Agent shall record or cause to be recorded in the Register the  information
contained in such Assignment.

(d) Effectiveness. Subject to the recording of an  Assignment by the
Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to Section 2.14(b),  (i) the assignee
thereunder shall become a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and  obligations under
the Loan Documents have been assigned to such assignee pursuant to such  Assignment, shall
have the rights and obligations of a Lender, (ii) any applicable Note  shall be transferred
to such assignee through such entry and (iii) the assignor thereunder  shall, to the extent
that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it  pursuant to such
Assignment, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the termination  of the
Commitments and the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from  its obligations
under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances  occurring
prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment covering all or the  remaining
portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan  Documents, such
Lender shall cease to be a party hereto except that each Lender agrees to  remain bound by
Article 10, Section 11.8 (Right of Setoff) and  Section 11.9
(Sharing of Payments) to the extent provided in  Section 10.11
(Additional Beneficiaries of Collateral)).

(e) Grant of Security Interests. In addition to the  other rights provided in
this Section 11.2, each Lender may grant a security interest in, or  otherwise assign
as collateral, any of its rights under this Agreement, whether now owned or  hereafter
acquired (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans),  to (A) any
federal reserve bank (pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve  Board) or a central
bank or other regulator, without notice to the Administrative Agent or  (B) any holder of, or
trustee for the benefit of the holders of, such Lender’s Securities by  notice to the
Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no such holder or  trustee,
whether because of such grant or assignment or any foreclosure thereon (unless  such
foreclosure is made through an assignment in accordance with clause (b)  above),
shall be entitled to any rights of such Lender hereunder and no such Lender  shall be
relieved of any of its obligations hereunder.

(f) Participants and SPVs. In addition to the other  rights provided in this
Section 11.2, each Lender may, (x) with notice to the  Administrative Agent, grant to
an SPV the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would  otherwise be
required to make hereunder (and the exercise of such option by such SPV and the  making of
Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy the obligation of such Lender to make such  Loans
hereunder) and such SPV may assign to such Lender the right to receive payment  with respect
to any Obligation and (y) without notice to or consent from the  Administrative Agent or the
Borrower (except that the written consent of the Borrower shall always be  required for
participations to Disqualified Competitors), sell participations to one or more  Persons in
or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents  (including all
its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loans, Revolving Loans and  Letters of
Credit); provided, however, that, whether as a result of any term  of any
Loan Document or of such grant or participation, (i) no such SPV or  participant shall have a
commitment, or be deemed to have made an offer to commit, to make Loans  hereunder, and,
except as provided in the applicable option agreement, none shall be liable for  any
obligation of such Lender hereunder, (ii) such Lender’s rights and  obligations, and the
rights and obligations of the Loan Parties and the Secured Parties towards such  Lender,
under any Loan Document shall remain unchanged and each other party hereto  shall continue to
deal solely with such Lender, which shall remain the holder of the Obligations  in the
Register, except that (A) each such participant and SPV shall be entitled  to the benefit of
Sections 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs; Capital  Requirements) and
2.17 (Taxes), but only to the extent such participant or SPV  delivers the
tax forms such Lender is required to collect pursuant to  Section 2.17(f) and then
only to the extent of any amount to which such Lender would be entitled in the  absence of
any such grant or participation and (B) each such SPV may receive other  payments that would
otherwise be made to such Lender with respect to Loans funded by such SPV to  the extent
provided in the applicable option agreement and set forth in a notice provided  to the
Administrative Agent by such SPV and such Lender, provided,  however, that in
no case (including pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above) shall an  SPV or
participant have the right to enforce any of the terms of any Loan Document,  and (iii) the
consent of such SPV or participant shall not be required (either directly, as a  restraint on
such Lender’s ability to consent hereunder or otherwise) for any  amendments, waivers or
consents with respect to any Loan Document or to exercise or refrain from  exercising any
powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents  (including
the right to enforce or direct enforcement of the Obligations), except for  those described
in clauses (iii) and (iv) of Section 11.1(a) with  respect to
amounts, or dates fixed for payment of amounts, to which such participant or  SPV would
otherwise be entitled and, in the case of participants, except for those  described in
Section 11.1(a)(v) (or amendments, consents and waivers with  respect to Section
10.10 to release all or substantially all of the Collateral). No party  hereto shall
institute (and the Borrower shall cause each other Loan Party not to institute)  against any
SPV grantee of an option pursuant to this clause (f) any bankruptcy,  reorganization,
insolvency, liquidation or similar proceeding, prior to the date that is one  year and one
day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper of such SPV;  provided,
however, that each Lender having designated an SPV as such agrees to indemnify  each
Indemnitee against any Liability that may be incurred by, or asserted against,  such
Indemnitee as a result of failing to institute such proceeding (including a  failure to get
reimbursed by such SPV for any such Liability). The agreement in the preceding  sentence
shall survive the termination of the Commitments and the payment in full of the  Obligations.

contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of  its Term

any liability under this Section 11.4 to any Indemnitee with  respect to any Indemnified
Matter, and no Indemnitee shall have any liability with respect to any  Indemnified Matter other
than (to the extent otherwise liable), to the extent such liability has  resulted primarily and
directly from (A) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such  Indemnitee, as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order,  (B) a material breach
of any such Indemnitee’s obligations under the Loan Documents, as  determined by a court of

successor-in-interest to any Related Person or the owner, lessee or operator of  any property
of any Related Person through any foreclosure action, in each case except to  the extent such

any Indemnitee or (ii) (A) are incurred solely following foreclosure by  any Secured Party or
following any Secured Party having become the successor-in-interest to any Loan  Party and
(B) are attributable to acts of such Indemnitee.

held harmless and defended by the Borrower from and against any such claim for  special, indirect,
consequential or punitive damages that may be imposed on, incurred by or  asserted against any such
Indemnitee in any matter relating to or arising out of, in connection with or  as a result of
Indemnified Matters (subject to the limitations related thereto in  Section 11.4).

Section 11.7 Lender-Creditor Relationship. The relationship  between the Lenders, the
L/C Issuers and the Administrative Agent, on the one hand, and the Loan  Parties, on the other hand,
is solely that of lender and creditor. No Secured Party has any fiduciary  relationship or duty to
any Loan Party arising out of or in connection with, and there is no agency,  tenancy or joint
venture relationship between the Secured Parties and the Loan Parties by virtue  of, any Loan
Document or any transaction contemplated therein.

Section 11.8 Right of Setoff. Each of the Administrative Agent,  each Lender, each L/C
Issuer and each Affiliate (including each branch office thereof) of any of them  is hereby
authorized, without notice or demand (each of which is hereby waived by the  Borrower), at any time
and from time to time during the continuance of any Event of Default and to the  fullest extent
permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, to set off and apply any and all  deposits (whether
general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and  other Indebtedness,
claims or other obligations at any time owing by the Administrative Agent, such  Lender, such L/C
Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates to or for the credit or the  account of the Borrower
against any Obligation of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing, whether or  not any demand was
made under any Loan Document with respect to such Obligation and even though  such Obligation may be
unmatured. Each of the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each L/C Issuer  agrees promptly to
notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing after any such  setoff and application
made by such Lender or its Affiliates; provided, however, that  the failure to give
such written notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and  application. The rights under
this Section 11.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies  (including other rights
of setoff) that the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the L/C Issuers and  their Affiliates and
other Secured Parties may have.

Section 11.9 Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender, directly  or through an Affiliate
or branch office thereof, obtains any payment of any Obligation of any Loan  Party (whether
voluntary, involuntary or through the exercise of any right of setoff or the  receipt of any
Collateral or “proceeds” (as defined under the applicable UCC)  of Collateral) other than
pursuant to Sections 2.16 (Breakage Costs; Increased Costs;  Capital Requirements),
2.17 (Taxes), 2.18 (Substitution of Lenders),  2.19
(Incremental Term Loans and Commitments), 2.20 (Extension of  Loans and
Commitments), 2.21 (Loan Repurchases), 2.22 (Refinancing  Amendment) and
11.2 (Assignments and Participations; Binding Effect) and other  than in connection
with any retirement of Term Loans held by a Purchasing Borrower Party and such  payment exceeds the
amount such Lender would have been entitled to receive if all payments had gone  to, and been
distributed by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of  the Loan Documents,
such Lender shall purchase for cash from other Secured Parties such  participations in their
Obligations as necessary for such Lender to share such excess payment with such  Secured Parties to
ensure such payment is applied as though it had been received by the  Administrative Agent and
applied in accordance with this Agreement (or, if such application would then  be at the discretion
of the Borrower, applied to repay the Obligations in accordance herewith);  provided,
however, that (a) if such payment is rescinded or otherwise  recovered from such Lender or
L/C Issuer in whole or in part, such purchase shall be rescinded and the  purchase price therefor
shall be returned to such Lender or L/C Issuer without interest and  (b) such Lender shall, to the
fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, be able to exercise  all its rights of
payment (including the right of setoff) with respect to such participation as  fully as if such
Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such  participation. If a
Non-Funding Lender receives any such payment as described in the previous  sentence, such Lender
shall turn over such payments to the Administrative Agent in an amount that  would satisfy the cash
collateral requirements set forth in Section 2.2(c).

Section 11.10 Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. No Secured Party  shall be under any
obligation to marshal any property in favor of any Loan Party or any other  party or against or in
payment of any Obligation. To the extent that any Secured Party receives a  payment from the
Borrower, from the proceeds of the Collateral, from the exercise of its rights  of setoff, any
enforcement action or otherwise, and such payment is subsequently, in whole or  in part,
invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required  to be repaid to a
trustee, receiver or any other party, then to the extent of such recovery, the  obligation or part
thereof originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies  therefor, shall be
revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not  occurred.

interception, disclosure and abuse and each indicates it assumes and accepts  such risks by hereby

posting on any E-System or E-Signature on any such posting under the provisions  of any

with any E Systems or Electronic Communication, including any warranty of  merchantability,
fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or  freedom from
viruses or other code defects. The Borrower and each Secured Party agrees (and  the Borrower

required in connection with any Electronic Transmission or otherwise required  for any

expressly set forth its applicable law, and the rights and obligations of the  parties hereto and

set forth in any other Loan Document, each other Loan Party) hereby irrevocably  waive any

related thereto (whether founded in contract, tort or any other theory). Each  party hereto (A)
certifies that no other party and no Related Person of any other party has  represented, expressly
or otherwise, that such other party would not, in the event of litigation, seek  to enforce the
foregoing waiver and (B) acknowledges that it and the other parties hereto  have been induced to
enter into the Loan Documents, as applicable, by the mutual waivers and  certifications in this

Section 11.17 Execution in Counterparts. This Agreement may be  executed in any number
of counterparts and by different parties in separate counterparts, each of  which when so executed

agreement. Signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts  and attached to a
single counterpart. Delivery of an executed signature page of this Agreement by  facsimile
transmission or Electronic Transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a  manually executed

Section 11.18 Entire Agreement. The Loan Documents embody the  entire agreement of the
parties and supersede all prior agreements and understandings relating to the  subject matter
thereof and any prior letter of interest, commitment letter, fee letter,  confidentiality and
similar agreements involving any Loan Party and any of the Administrative  Agent, any Lender or any
L/C Issuer or any of their respective Affiliates relating to a financing of  substantially similar
form, purpose or effect; provided, however, that those provisions  of the Commitment
Letter and Fee Letter that are expressly stated as surviving the execution and  delivery of the Loan
Documents pursuant to provisions of the Commitment Letter set forth under this  heading “Survival”
and the corresponding provisions of the Fee Letter, shall survive the execution  and delivery of the
Loan Documents. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this  Agreement and any other Loan

are necessary to comply with applicable Requirements of Law, in which case such  terms shall govern
to the extent necessary to comply therewith).

Party to agree, that it shall not, and none of its Affiliates shall, issue any  press release or
other public disclosure (other than any document filed with any Governmental  Authority relating to

Section 11.20 Non-Public Information; Confidentiality.  (a) Each Lender and L/C Issuer
acknowledges and agrees that it may receive material non-public information  hereunder concerning
the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and Securities. The Lenders are aware of  the restrictions
imposed by the United States securities laws on the purchase or sale of  securities by any person
who has received material, non-public information from the issuer of such  securities and on the
communication of such information to any other person when it is reasonably  foreseeable that such
other person is likely to purchase or sell such securities in reliance upon  such information.

(b) Each Lender, L/C Issuer and the Administrative Agent  agrees to use all reasonable
efforts to maintain, in accordance with its customary practices, the  confidentiality of
information obtained by it pursuant to any Loan Document and designated in  writing by any
Loan Party as confidential, except that such information may be disclosed  (i) with the
Borrower’s written consent, (ii) to Related Persons of such Lender,  L/C Issuer or the
Administrative Agent, as the case may be, or to any Person that any L/C Issuer  causes to
Issue Letters of Credit hereunder, that are advised of the confidential nature  of such
information and are instructed to keep such information confidential in  accordance with the
terms hereof, (iii) to the extent such information presently is or  hereafter becomes (A)
publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this  Section 11.20 or (B)
available to such Lender, L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent or any of  their Related
Persons, as the case may be, from a source (other than any Loan Party or any of  its
Affiliates) not known to them to be subject to disclosure restrictions,  (iv) to the extent
disclosure is required by applicable Requirements of Law or other legal process  or requested
or demanded by any Governmental Authority, (v) to the extent necessary or  customary for
inclusion in league table measurements or in any tombstone or other advertising  materials
(and the Loan Parties consent to the publication of such tombstone or other  advertising
materials by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any L/C Issuer or any of  their Related
Persons), (vi) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or  any similar
organization, any examiner or any nationally recognized rating agency or  otherwise to the
extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Loan  Parties,
(vii) to current or prospective assignees, SPVs (including the investors  or prospective
investors therein), grantees of any option described in  Section 11.2(f) or
participants, direct or contractual counterparties to any Hedging Agreement  permitted
hereunder and to their respective Related Persons, in each case to the extent  such
assignees, participants, counterparties or Related Persons agree to be bound by  provisions
substantially similar to the provisions of this Section 11.20 (and  such Person may
disclose information to their respective Related Persons in accordance with  clause (ii)
above), (viii) to any other party hereto, and (ix) in connection with  the exercise or
enforcement of any right or remedy under any Loan Document, in connection with  any
litigation or other proceeding to which such Lender, L/C Issuer or the  Administrative Agent
or any of their Related Persons is a party or bound, to the extent necessary to  respond to
public statements or disclosures by Loan Parties or their Related Persons  referring to a
Lender, L/C Issuer or the Administrative Agent or any of their Related Persons.  In the event
of any conflict between the terms of this Section 11.20 and those  of any other
Contractual Obligation entered into with any Loan Party (whether or not a Loan  Document),
the terms of this Section 11.20 shall govern. Any Person required  to maintain the
confidentiality of information as provided in this Section 11.20  shall be considered
to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised at  least the same
degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such  Person accords
its own confidential information.

Section 11.21 Actions in Concert. Notwithstanding anything  herein or in the other Loan
Documents to the contrary, each Lender hereby agrees with each other Lender  that no Lender shall
take any action to protect or enforce its rights against any Loan Party arising  out of this
Agreement or any other Loan Document (including exercising any rights of  setoff) without first
obtaining the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent or the Required  Lenders, it being
the intent of the Lenders that any such action to protect or enforce rights  under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents shall be taken in concert and at the direction or  with the consent of
the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders.

Section 11.22 Patriot Act Notice. Each Lender subject to the  USA Patriot Act of 2001
(31 U.S.C. 5318 et seq.) hereby notifies the Borrower that, pursuant to  Section 326 thereof, it is
required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower,  including the name
and address of the Borrower and other information allowing such Lender to  identify the Borrower in
accordance with such act.

Section 11.23 Affiliated Lenders. (a) Notwithstanding  anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (i) attend  (including by telephone) any
meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or  any Lender to which
representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, (ii) receive any  information or material
prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or  among the
Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders (and their auditors, advisors  and attorneys),
except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to  any Loan Party or
its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices  of prepayments and
other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered  to Lenders pursuant
to Article 2), or (iii) make or bring (or participate in, other than  as a passive participant in or
recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender,  against the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or  obligations or alleged
duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan  Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.1  or the definition of “Required
Lenders”, “Required Revolving Credit Lenders” or “Required  Term Loan Lenders” to the
contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, the  Required Term Loan
Lenders or the Required Revolving Credit Lenders have (i) consented (or  not consented) to
any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to  any of the
terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom,  (ii) otherwise
acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or  required the
Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from  taking any
action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Loans held by any  Non-Debt Fund
Affiliate shall be deemed to be not outstanding for all purposes of calculating  whether the
Required Lenders, Required Revolving Lenders or Required Term Loan Lenders have  taken any
actions and no Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall be entitled to vote hereunder in  connection
with such Loans; provided, however, that the commitments of any Non-Debt Fund  Affiliate
shall not be increased, the due dates for payment of interest and scheduled  amortization
(including at maturity) owned to any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate will not be  extended and the
amounts owing to any such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate will not be reduced without  the written
consent of such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate.

(c) Additionally, the Loan Parties and each Non-Debt Fund  Affiliate hereby agree that
if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code is commenced against any  Loan Party, such
Loan Party shall seek (and each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate shall consent) to  provide that the
vote of any Non-Debt Fund Affiliate (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect  to any plan
of reorganization of such Loan Party shall not be counted except that such  Non-Debt Fund
Affiliate’s vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be

counted
to the  extent any such plan of reorganization  proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate in a
manner that is less favorable in any material respect to such Non-Debt Fund  Affiliate than
the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not  Affiliates of the
Borrower. Each Non-Debt Fund Affiliate hereby irrevocably appoints the  Administrative Agent
(such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Non-Debt Fund  Affiliate’s
attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Non-Debt  Fund Affiliate
and in the name of such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate (solely in respect of Loans and
participations therein and not in respect of any other claim or status such  Non-Debt Fund
Affiliate may otherwise have), from time to time in the Administrative  Agent’s discretion to
vote such Non-Debt Fund Affiliate’s claims in the same proportion, for or  against, as votes
were cast on each matter by Lenders that are not Affiliated Lenders and take  any action and
to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably  necessary to
carry out the provisions of this paragraph.

Credit Agreement

Form of Solvency Certificate

October 21, 2011

This Solvency Certificate is being executed and delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(h)
of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof, by and among Westwood One, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders (as defined below), Cortland Capital
Market Services LLC (“Cortland”), as administrative agent and collateral agent for the
Lenders, and Macquarie Capital (USA) Inc., as syndication agent (the “Credit Agreement”;
capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to them in the
Credit Agreement).

I, [•], the [Chief Financial Officer][President][Chief Executive Officer] of the Borrower, in
such capacity and not in an individual capacity, hereby certify that I am the [Chief Financial
Officer][President][Chief Executive Officer] of the Borrower and that I am generally familiar with
the businesses and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), I have made such
other investigations and inquiries as I have deemed appropriate and am duly authorized to execute
this Solvency Certificate on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

I further certify, in my capacity as [Chief Financial Officer][President][Chief Executive
Officer] of the Borrower, and not in my individual capacity, as of the date hereof and after giving
effect to the Acquisition and the incurrence of the indebtedness and obligations being incurred in
connection with the Credit Agreement and any other funded indebtedness incurred to consummate the
Acquisition, that, (i) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a
consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of liabilities, including contingent
liabilities, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; (ii) the present fair
saleable value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not
less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, on their debts and liabilities as they become absolute and
matured; (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are not engaged in
business or a transaction, and are not about to engage in business or a transaction, for which the
Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets, on a consolidated basis, would constitute unreasonably
small capital; and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not intend to, and do not believe that
they will, incur debts or liabilities, on a consolidated basis, beyond their ability to pay such
debts and liabilities as they mature. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent
liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and
circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to
become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the
criteria for accrual under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).

Exhibit I

to

Credit Agreement

Auction Procedures

This Exhibit I is intended to summarize certain basic terms of the modified Dutch auction
(an “Auction”) procedures pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of
Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement, of which this Exhibit I is a part. It is not
intended to be a definitive statement of all of the terms and conditions of an Auction, the
definitive terms and conditions for which shall be set forth in the applicable offering document.
None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, or any of their respective affiliates or any
officers, directors, employees, agents or attorneys-in-fact of such Persons (together with the
Administrative Agent and its affiliates, the “Agent-Related Person”) makes any
recommendation pursuant to any offering document as to whether or not any Lender should sell its
Term Loans to a Purchasing Borrower Party pursuant to any offering documents, nor shall the
decision by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any other Agent-Related Person (or any
of their Affiliates) in its respective capacity as a Lender to sell its Term Loans to any
Purchasing Borrower Party be deemed to constitute such a recommendation. Each Lender should make
its own decision on whether to sell any of its Term Loans and, if it decides to do so, the
principal amount of and price to be sought for such Term Loans. In addition, each Lender should
consult its own attorney, business advisor or tax advisor as to legal, business, tax and related
matters concerning each Auction and the relevant offering documents. Capitalized terms not
otherwise defined in this Exhibit I have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit
Agreement.

ARTICLE 1 Notice Procedures. In connection with each Auction, the Borrower will
provide notification to the Auction Manager (for distribution to the Lenders of the Term Loans
(each, an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall contain (i) the maximum principal
amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans that Purchasing Borrower Parties offer
to purchase in such Auction (the “Auction Amount”), which shall be no less than $2,500,000
(unless another amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed)) or such lesser amount to the extent the amount of outstanding
Term Loans is less than $2,500,000; (ii) the range of discounts to par (the “Discount
Range”), expressed as a range of prices per $1,000 (in increments of $5), at which a Purchasing
Borrower Party would be willing to purchase Term Loans in such Auction; and (iii) the date on which
such Auction will conclude, on which date Return Bids (as defined below) will be due by 12:00 p.m.
(New York time) (as such date and time may be extended by the Auction Manager, such time (including
any extension thereof) the “Expiration Time”). Such Expiration Time may be extended for a
period not exceeding three (3) Business Days upon notice by the Borrower to the Auction Manager
received not less than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time; provided that only two
(2) extensions per offer shall be permitted. An Auction shall be regarded as a “failed auction” in
the event that either (x) the Borrower withdraws such Auction in accordance with the terms hereof
or (y) the Expiration Time occurs with no Qualifying Bids (as defined below) having been received.
In the event of a failed auction, the Borrower shall not be permitted to deliver a new Auction
Notice prior to the date occurring three (3) Business Days after such withdrawal or Expiration
Time, as the case may be. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Borrower
shall not initiate any Auction by delivering an Auction Notice to the Auction Manager until after
the conclusion (whether successful or failed) of the previous Auction (if any), whether such
conclusion occurs by withdrawal of such previous Auction or the occurrence of the Expiration Time
of such previous Auction.

 

I-1

 

ARTICLE 2 Reply Procedures. In connection with any Auction, each Term Loan Lender
wishing to participate in such Auction shall, prior to the Expiration Time, provide the Auction
Manager
with a notice of participation, in the form included in the respective offering document
(each, a “Return Bid”) which shall specify (i) a discount to par that must be expressed as
a price per $1,000 (in increments of $5) in principal amount of Term Loans (the “Reply
Price”) within the Discount Range and (ii) the principal amount of Term Loans, in an amount not
less than $1,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof, that such Lender offers
for sale at its Reply Price (the “Reply Amount”). A Lender may submit a Reply Amount that
is less than the minimum amount and incremental amount requirements described above only if the
Reply Amount comprises the entire amount of the Term Loans held by such Lender. Lenders may only
submit one Return Bid per Auction but each Return Bid may contain up to three (3) component bids,
each of which may result in a separate Qualifying Bid and each of which will not be contingent on
any other component bid submitted by such Lender resulting in a Qualifying Bid. In addition to the
Return Bid, the participating Lender must execute and deliver, to be held by the Auction Manager,
an assignment and acceptance (which shall be in customary form) included in the offering document
(each, an “Auction Assignment and Assumption”). No Purchasing Borrower Party will purchase
any Term Loans at a price that is outside of the applicable Discount Range, nor will any Return
Bids (including any component bids specified therein) submitted at a price that is outside such
applicable Discount Range be considered in any calculation of the Applicable Threshold Price.

ARTICLE 3 Acceptance Procedures. Based on the Reply Prices and Reply Amounts received
by the Auction Manager, the Auction Manager, in consultation with the participating Purchasing
Borrower Parties, will calculate the lowest purchase price (the “Applicable Threshold
Price”) for such Auction within the Discount Range for such Auction that will allow such
Purchasing Borrower Parties to complete the Auction by purchasing the full Auction Amount (or such
lesser amount of Term Loans for which the Borrower has received Qualifying Bids). The
participating Purchasing Borrower Parties shall purchase Term Loans from each Lender whose Return
Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the
Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All Term Loans included in
Qualifying Bids (including multiple component Qualifying Bids contained in a single Return Bid)
received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at such
applicable Reply Prices and shall not be subject to proration.

ARTICLE 4 Proration Procedures. All Term Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if
applicable, any component thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids at the Applicable Threshold Price
will be purchased at the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate
principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans for which Qualifying
Bids have been submitted in any given Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the
remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans to be purchased at prices
below the Applicable Threshold Price), the participating Purchasing Borrower Parties shall purchase
the Term Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price
ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount equal to the
amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. No Return Bids or any component
thereof will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.

ARTICLE 5 Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable
Threshold Price and post the Applicable Threshold Price and proration factor onto an internet or
intranet site (including an IntraLinks, SyndTrak or other electronic workspace) in accordance with
the Auction Manager’s standard dissemination practices by 4:00 p.m. New York time on the same
Business Day as the date the Return Bids were due (as such due date may be extended in accordance
with this Exhibit I). The Auction Manager will insert the principal amount of Term Loans
of to be assigned and the applicable settlement date into each applicable Auction Assignment and
Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon the request of the submitting
Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Auction Assignment and Assumption received in
connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid.

 

I-2

 

ARTICLE 6 Auction Assignment and Assumption. Each Auction Notice and Auction
Assignment and Assumption shall contain the representation and warranty by the Borrower that the
express conditions set forth in Section 2.21(a)(i)-(viii) of the Credit Agreement have each
been satisfied or waived on and as of the date hereof, except to the extent that such conditions
refer to conditions that must be satisfied as of a future date, in which case the Borrower must
terminate any Auction if it fails to satisfy (or obtain a waiver of) one of more of the conditions
which are required to be met or waived at the time which otherwise would have been the time of
purchase of Term Loans pursuant to an Auction.

ARTICLE 7 Additional Procedures. Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Borrower
may withdraw an Auction only in the event that, (i) as of such time, no Qualifying Bid has been
received by the Auction Manager or (ii) the Borrower has failed to meet a condition set forth in
Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon
submission by a Lender of a Return Bid, such Lender will not have any withdrawal rights. Any
Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be
modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled by a Lender. However, an Auction may become void if the
conditions to the purchase of Term Loans by a Purchasing Borrower Party required by the terms and
conditions of Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement are not met or waived. The purchase
price in respect of each Qualifying Bid for which purchase by a Purchasing Borrower Party is
required in accordance with the foregoing provisions shall be paid directly by such Purchasing
Borrower Party to the respective assigning Lender on a settlement date as determined jointly by
such Purchasing Borrower Party and the Auction Manager (which shall be not later than fifteen (15)
Business Days after the date Return Bids are due). The Borrower shall execute each applicable
Auction Assignment and Assumption received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. All questions as
to the form of documents and validity and eligibility of Term Loans that are the subject of an
Auction will be reasonably determined by the Auction Manager, in consultation with the Borrower,
and their determination will be final and binding so long as such determination is not inconsistent
with the terms of Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit I. The
Auction Manager’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the offering document, in
consultation with the Borrower, will be final and binding so long as such interpretation is not
inconsistent with the terms of Section 2.21 of the Credit Agreement or this Exhibit
I. None of the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, any other Agent Related Person or
any of their respective Affiliates assumes any responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of
the information concerning the Borrower, the Loan Parties, or any of their Affiliates (whether
contained in an offering document or otherwise) or for any failure to disclose events that may have
occurred and may affect the significance or accuracy of such information. This Exhibit I
shall not require the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any of their Affiliates to initiate any
Auction.

marshaling of the Company’s assets and liabilities:

(a) holders of Senior Debt shall be entitled to receive payment in full in cash (other
than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and any unasserted contingent expense
reimbursement obligations that, at such time, have not been incurred) of all Obligations due
in respect of such Senior Debt (including interest after the commencement of any such
Proceeding at the rate specified in the applicable Senior Debt) before the Holder of the

in full in cash (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and any

authorizes, empowers and directs any debtor, debtor in possession, receiver, trustee,
liquidator, custodian, conservator or other Person having authority, to pay or otherwise
deliver all such distributions to the Senior Agent. The Holder also irrevocably authorizes
and empowers the Senior Agent, in the name of the Holder, to demand, sue for, collect and

other proceeding challenging the enforceability, validity, perfection or priority of the

of the Holder promptly to do so prior to 30 days before the expiration of the time to file
any such proof of claim; provided that Senior Agent shall have no obligation to
execute, verify, deliver and/or file any such proof of claim; and

(d) The Senior Debt shall continue to be treated as Senior Debt and the provisions of
this Section 13 shall continue to govern the relative rights and priorities of the

13 shall be reinstated if at any time any payment of any of the Senior Debt is rescinded
or must otherwise be returned by any holder of Senior Debt or any representative of such

written consent of the agent or representative under any Senior Debt (including the Senior Agent),
(i) sue for payment of, or to initiate or participate with others in any suit, action or proceeding
against the Company (A) to enforce payment of or to collect the whole or any part of this Note or
(B) to commence judicial enforcement of any of the rights and remedies under this Indenture or
applicable law with respect to this Note, or (ii) accelerate the Notes (it being understood that
the Notes will automatically accelerate in the case of an Event of Default of the type set forth in
Section 3(a)(ii)). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 13(d), the Holders may
take any of the actions set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section
13(d) to the extent available under this Note and applicable law, after the first to occur of:
(x) the acceleration of any Senior Debt; provided, however, that the Senior Agent shall have
received ten (10) days’ prior written notice of the Holder’s intention to effect such acceleration,
(y) the date of initiation of any Proceeding or institution or commencement of any remedies against
the Company in respect of the Senior Debt to foreclose upon a material portion or item of
collateral and (z) the date the Senior Debt is paid in full in cash (other than unasserted
contingent indemnification obligations and any unasserted contingent expense reimbursement
obligations that, at such time, have not been incurred) and all commitments to lend under the
Senior Debt Documents shall have been terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Holder may

Company, (y) commence legal proceedings to the extent necessary to prevent the running of
applicable statutes of limitation or similar restrictions on claims and (z) make compulsory cross
claims or counterclaims. Any distributions or other proceeds of any enforcement action described
in clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence obtained by the
Holder in violation of the foregoing prohibition shall in any event be held in trust by it for the
benefit of the Senior Agent and promptly paid or delivered to the Senior Agent in the form received
until all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash (other than unasserted contingent indemnification
obligations and any unasserted contingent expense reimbursement obligations that, at such time,
have not been incurred) and all commitments to lend under the Senior Debt Documents shall have been
terminated.

Section 13.5 Acceleration of Notes. If payment of this Note is accelerated because of

receives any payment or other distribution, whether in cash, securities or other property, on
account of any Obligations with respect to this Note not permitted to be made by the Company or
accepted by the Holder under this Section 13, such payment or other distribution shall not be
commingled with any of the assets of the Holder and shall be held by the Holder, in trust for the
benefit of the Senior Agent, and shall promptly be paid over and delivered to, the Senior Agent,
for application to the payment of all Obligations with respect to Senior Debt remaining unpaid
until all the Senior Debt is paid in full in cash (other than unasserted contingent indemnification
obligations and any unasserted contingent expense reimbursement obligations that, at such time,
have not been incurred) and all commitments to lend under the Senior Debt Documents have been
terminated.

Section 13.7 Notice by Company. The Company shall promptly notify Holder of any facts
known to the Company that would cause a payment of any Obligations with respect to this Note to
violate
this Section 13, but failure to give such notice shall not affect the subordination of this
Note to the Senior Debt as provided in this Section 13.

 

J-9

 

Section 13.8 Subrogation. After all Senior Debt is paid in full in cash (other than
unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and any unasserted contingent expense
reimbursement obligations that, at such time, have not been incurred) and all commitments to lend
under the Senior Debt Documents have been terminated and until the Note is paid in full, the Holder
shall be subrogated (equally and ratably with all other Indebtedness pari passu with this Note) to
the rights of holders of Senior Debt to receive distributions applicable to Senior Debt to the
extent that distributions otherwise payable to the Holder have been applied to the payment of
Senior Debt. A distribution made under this Section 13 to holders of Senior Debt that otherwise
would have been made to the Holder is not, as between the Company and the Holder, a payment by the
Company on the Notes.

Section 13.9 Relative Rights. This Section 13 defines the relative rights of the
Holder and holders of Senior Debt. Nothing in this Section 13 shall:

(a) impair, as between the Company and the Holder, the obligation of the Company, which

with its terms;

(b) affect the relative rights of the Holder and creditors of the Company other than
their rights in relation to holders of Senior Debt; or

(c) prevent Holder from exercising its available remedies upon an Event of Default,
subject to the limitations set forth herein.

Section 13.10 Payment. If the Company fails because of this Section 13 to pay
principal of or interest on a Note on the due date, the failure is still an Event of Default.

Section 13.11 Subordination May Not Be Impaired by Company. No right of any holder of
Senior Debt to enforce the subordination of the Indebtedness evidenced by this Note shall be
impaired by any act or failure to act by the Company or the Holder or by the failure of the Company
or the Holder to comply with this Section 13.

Section 13.12 Distribution or Notice to Representative. Whenever a distribution is to
be made or a notice given to holders of Senior Debt, the distribution shall be made and the notice
given to the Senior Agent. Upon any payment or distribution of assets of the Company referred to
in this Section 13, the Holder shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court
of competent jurisdiction or upon any certificate of the Senior Agent or of the liquidating trustee
or agent or other Person making any distribution to the Holder for the purpose of ascertaining the
Persons entitled to participate in such distribution, the holders of the Senior Debt and other
Indebtedness of the Company, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or
distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Section 13.

Section 13.13 Amendments. The provisions of this Section 13 shall not be amended or
modified without the prior written consent of the requisite holders of each issue of Senior Debt
and shall not be affected, modified or impaired in any manner or to any extent by any amendment or
modification of or supplement to the Credit Agreements.

Section 13.14 No Collateral or Guaranties. Until the Senior Debt is paid in full in
cash (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and any unasserted contingent
expense
reimbursement obligations that, at such time, have not been incurred) and all commitments to
lend under the Senior Debt Documents shall have been terminated, the Holder shall not, without the
prior written consent of the Senior Agent, accept any collateral, guaranties or other security or
similar third party support agreements for the Note.

 

J-10

at any time and from time to time without the consent of or notice to the Holder, without incurring
liability to the Holder and without impairing or releasing the obligations of the Holder under this
Note, change the manner or place of payment or extend the time of payment of or renew or alter any
of the terms of the Senior Debt, or amend in any manner any agreement, note, guaranty or other
instrument evidencing or securing or otherwise relating to the Senior Debt.

Section 13.16 Assignments of Senior Debt. The holders of the Senior Debt may, from
time to time, assign or transfer any or all of the Senior Debt or any interest therein to any
Person in accordance with the applicable Senior Debt Documents and, notwithstanding any such
assignment or transfer, or any subsequent assignment or transfer, the Senior Debt shall, subject to
the terms hereof, be and remain Senior Debt for purposes of this Section 13, and every permitted
assignee or transferee of any of the Senior Debt or of any interest therein shall, to the extent of
the interest of such permitted assignee or transferee in the applicable Senior Debt Documents, be
entitled to rely upon and be the third party beneficiary of the subordination provided under this
Section 13 and shall be entitled to enforce the terms and provisions hereof to the same extent as
if such assignee or transferee were initially a party hereto; provided that, with respect to any
payments or property that the Holder is required to deliver to the Senior Agent, the Holder shall
be permitted to pay the Person that the Holder most recently received notice from the Senior Agent
to deliver such payments or property to and the Holder shall not be liable to any such permitted
assignee or transferee for delivering any such payment or property to such Person.

Section 13.17 Third Party Beneficiary. The Holder expressly acknowledges and agrees
that each holder of Senior Debt is an intended third party beneficiary of the subordination
provided under this Section 13; provided, that each such holder of Senior Debt shall comply with
its obligation to provide notice in accordance with Section 16 of this Note.

ARTICLE 14 Assignments of this Note. Until the Senior Debt has been paid in full in
cash (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and any unasserted contingent
expense reimbursement obligations that, at such time, have not been incurred) and all commitments
to lend under the Senior Debt Documents have been terminated, the provisions of this Note
(including, for the avoidance of doubt, the subordination provisions in Section 13) shall be
binding on any successors and assigns or other transferees of this Note; provided,
however, that (a) the Company may not assign this Note or any rights or duties hereunder
without the Holder’s prior written consent and any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void
ab initio and (b) the Holder shall provide the Senior Agent notice in accordance with the notice
provisions set forth in Section 16 promptly after making any assignment of this Note.

ARTICLE 15 Severability. In the event that any provision of this Note is deemed to be
invalid, illegal or unenforceable by reason of the operation of any law or by reason of the
interpretation placed thereon by any court or governmental authority, the validity, legality and
enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Note shall not in any way be affected or
impaired thereby, and the affected provision shall be modified to the minimum extent permitted by
law so as most fully to achieve the intention of this Note.

Credit Agreement

Solvency Certificate

October [•], 2011

This Solvency Certificate is being executed and delivered pursuant to Section 3.1(h)
of that certain Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof, by and among Westwood One, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), the Lenders (as defined below), the L/C Issuer (as
defined below) General Electric Capital Corporation (“GE Capital”), as administrative agent
and collateral agent for the Lenders and the L/C Issuers (in such capacity, and together with its
successors and permitted assigns, the “Administrative Agent”) and ING Capital LLC, as
syndication agent (the “Syndication Agent”) (the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized
terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning assigned to them in the Credit
Agreement).

I, [•], the [Chief Financial Officer][President][Chief Executive Officer] of the Borrower, in
such capacity and not in an individual capacity, hereby certify that I am the [Chief Financial
Officer][President][Chief Executive Officer] of the Borrower and that I am generally familiar with
the businesses and assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), I have made such
other investigations and inquiries as I have deemed appropriate and am duly authorized to execute
this Solvency Certificate on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

I further certify, in my capacity as [Chief Financial Officer][President][Chief Executive
Officer] of the Borrower, and not in my individual capacity, as of the date hereof and after giving
effect to the Acquisition and the incurrence of the indebtedness and obligations being incurred in
connection with the Credit Agreement and any other funded indebtedness incurred to consummate the
Acquisition, that, (i) the fair value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a
consolidated basis, is greater than the total amount of liabilities, including contingent
liabilities, of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis; (ii) the present fair
saleable value of the assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, is not
less than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liability of the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, on their debts and liabilities as they become absolute and
matured; (iii) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, are not engaged in
business or a transaction, and are not about to engage in business or a transaction, for which the
Borrower’s and its Subsidiaries’ assets, on a consolidated basis, would constitute unreasonably
small capital; and (iv) the Borrower and its Subsidiaries do not intend to, and do not believe that
they will, incur debts or liabilities, on a consolidated basis, beyond their ability to pay such
debts and liabilities as they mature. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent
liability at any time shall be computed as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and
circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to
become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the
criteria for accrual under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).

Credit Agreement

Form Intercompany Subordination Provisions

[Non-Loan Party] agrees that any intercompany Indebtedness or other intercompany payables or
receivables, or intercompany advances directly or indirectly made by or owed to [non-Loan Party] by
[Loan Party] (collectively, “Intercompany Debt”), of whatever nature at any time
outstanding shall be subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full in cash of the
Obligations (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and unasserted
reimbursement obligations). [Non-Loan Party] hereby agrees that it will not following written
notice by the Administrative Agent (and in any case without notice following the occurrence and
during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 9.1(e) of the Credit Agreement), while
any Event of Default is continuing, accept any payment, including by any offset, on any
Intercompany Debt until the Termination Date (as defined in the Guaranty and Security Agreement).

In the event that any payment on any Intercompany Debt shall be received by [non-Loan Party] other
than as permitted hereby prior to the Termination Date, [non-Loan Party] shall receive such
payments and hold the same in trust for, segregate the same from its own assets and shall promptly
pay over to, the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
all such sums to the extent necessary so that Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have been
paid in full, in cash, all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations and
unasserted expense reimbursement obligations) owed or which may become owing by [Loan Party].

Upon any payment or distribution of any assets of [Loan Party] of any kind or character, whether in
cash, property or securities by set-off, recoupment or otherwise, to creditors in any liquidation,
administration, examinership or other winding-up of [Loan Party] or in the event of any proceeding
under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar bankruptcy laws, in which [Loan Party] is a debtor, the
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash, in
accordance with the terms of the Obligations and of this Agreement and the Credit Agreement, of all
amounts payable under or in respect of such Obligations owing by [Loan Party], before any payment
or distribution is made on, or in respect of, any Intercompany Debt, in any such proceeding under
the Bankruptcy Code or any similar bankruptcy laws, any distribution or payment, to which
Administrative Agent (for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) to the extent
necessary to pay all such Obligations owing by [Loan Party] in full in cash, after giving effect to
any concurrent or previous payment or distribution to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (or
to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders), in each
case, other than contingent indemnification obligations and unasserted expense reimbursement
obligations).

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement,
dated as of October 21, 2011, among Westwood One, Inc., the Lenders and L/C Issuers party thereto,
