provided that any Indebtedness of any Pulitzer Entity and any Consolidated EBITDA of any Pulitzer Entity will not be included in the calculation of the Consolidated Leverage Ratio until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, provided
further, that: 
  

	 	(1)	if the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary: 

  

	 	(a)	has Incurred any Indebtedness since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period that remains outstanding on such date of determination or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage
Ratio includes an Incurrence of Indebtedness, Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such Indebtedness as if such Indebtedness had been Incurred on the first day of such period and
the discharge of any other Indebtedness repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged with the proceeds of such new Indebtedness as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period; or

  

	 	(b)	has repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged any Indebtedness since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period that is no longer outstanding on such date of determination or if the
transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio includes a discharge of Indebtedness (in each case, other than Indebtedness Incurred under any revolving Debt Facility unless such Indebtedness has been permanently
repaid and the related commitment terminated and not replaced), Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving effect on a pro forma basis to such discharge of such Indebtedness, including with the proceeds of such new
Indebtedness, as if such discharge had occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period; 

  

	 	(2)	 if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period, the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall have made any Asset Disposition or disposed of or

 14 

	 	
Fair Market Value in excess of $2.5 million) or line of business or if the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio includes such a transaction:

  

	 	(a)	the Consolidated EBITDA for such Four Quarter Period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if positive) directly attributable to the assets that are the subject of such disposition or
discontinuation for such Four Quarter Period or increased by an amount equal to the Consolidated EBITDA (if negative) directly attributable thereto for such Four Quarter Period; and 

 

	 	(b)	Consolidated Interest Expense for such Four Quarter Period will be reduced by an amount equal to the Consolidated Interest Expense directly attributable to any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary
repaid, repurchased, redeemed, retired, defeased or otherwise discharged (to the extent the related commitment is permanently reduced) with respect to the Borrower and its continuing Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with such transaction for
such Four Quarter Period (or, if the Capital Stock of any Restricted Subsidiary is sold, the Consolidated Interest Expense for such period directly attributable to the Indebtedness of such Restricted Subsidiary to the extent the Borrower and its
continuing Restricted Subsidiaries are no longer liable for such Indebtedness after such sale); 

  

	 	(3)	if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (by merger or otherwise) shall have made an Investment in any Restricted Subsidiary (or any Person that becomes a Restricted
Subsidiary or is merged with or into the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary) or an acquisition of assets, including any acquisition of assets occurring in connection with a transaction causing a calculation to be made hereunder, which constitutes
all or substantially all of a company, division, operating unit, segment, business, group of related assets (provided that such group of related assets has a Fair Market Value in excess of $2.5 million) or line of business, Consolidated
EBITDA for such Four Quarter Period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (including the Incurrence of any Indebtedness) as if such Investment or acquisition occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period; and

  

	 	(4)	if since the beginning of such Four Quarter Period any Person (that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary since the beginning of such period)
shall have Incurred any Indebtedness or discharged any Indebtedness or made any disposition or any Investment or acquisition of assets that would have required an adjustment pursuant to clause (1), (2) or (3) above if made by the Borrower
or a Restricted Subsidiary during such period, Consolidated EBITDA for such period will be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction occurred on the first day of such Four Quarter Period. 

  
 15 

 If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest
expense on such Indebtedness will be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Interest Rate Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such
Interest Rate Agreement has a remaining term in excess of twelve months). If any Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect bears an interest rate at the option of the Borrower, the interest rate shall be calculated by applying such
optional rate chosen by the Borrower. In making any pro forma calculation, the amount of Indebtedness under any revolving Debt Facility outstanding on the date of determination (other than any Indebtedness Incurred under such facility in
connection with the transaction giving rise to the need to calculate the Consolidated Leverage Ratio) will be deemed to be: 
  

	 	(i)	the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable Four Quarter Period or such shorter period for which such facility was outstanding; or 

 

	 	(ii)	if such facility was created after the end of such Four Quarter Period, the average daily balance of such Indebtedness during the period from the date of creation of such facility to the date of such determination.

 For purposes of this definition, whenever pro forma effect is to be given to any calculation under this definition,
the pro forma calculations shall be (x) made in good faith by a responsible financial or accounting officer of the Borrower (and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, cost savings and operating expense reductions resulting from any
Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition which is being given pro forma effect that have been or are expected to be realized within twelve months after the date of such Asset Disposition or Asset Acquisition as the result of specified actions
taken or to be taken within six months after such date) or (y) determined in accordance with Regulation S-X under the Securities Act. 

“Consolidated Net Income” shall mean, as to any Person, for any period, the net income (loss) of such Person and its
consolidated Restricted Subsidiaries determined on a consolidated basis in accordance with GAAP (before Preferred Equity dividends other than with respect to Disqualified Stock); provided, however, that there will not be included in
such Consolidated Net Income: 
  

	 	(1)	any net income (loss) of any Person if such Person is not a Restricted Subsidiary or that is accounted for by the equity method of accounting, except that: 

 

	 	(a)	subject to the limitations contained in clauses (3) through (7) below, the Borrower’s equity in the net income of any such Person for such period will be included in such Consolidated Net Income up to the
aggregate amount of cash actually distributed by such Person to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries during such period (subject, in the case of a dividend or other distribution to a Restricted Subsidiary, to the limitations contained
in clause (2) below); and 

  

	 	(b)	 the Borrower’s equity in a net loss of any such Person for such period will be included in determining such Consolidated Net Income to the extent

  
 16

	 	(2)	any net income (but not loss) of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor) if such Restricted Subsidiary is subject to prior government approval or other restrictions due to the operation of its
charter or any agreement, instrument (including, without limitation, the Pulitzer Debt, but excluding any provisions of the Credit Documents requiring that any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities must be applied (or, at the option of the Lenders,
must be applied), or that the Pulitzer Entities must use best, reasonable best or commercially reasonable efforts to use any cash flow of the Pulitzer Entities, to repay the Loans before such cash flow may be applied to pay principal of or interest
on the notes issued under the First Lien Notes Indenture or any other Lee Pari Passu Lien Indebtedness (it being understood that no Indebtedness under the Credit Documents will be deemed to include provisions to the foregoing effect solely by virtue
of Liens on Lee Collateral, Pulitzer Collateral or other collateral, Guarantees, maturity or structural subordination)), judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or government regulation (which have not been waived), directly or indirectly, on the
payment of dividends or the making of distributions by such Restricted Subsidiary, directly or indirectly, to the Borrower, except that: 

  

	 	(a)	subject to the limitations and other adjustments contained in clauses (3) through (7) below, the Borrower’s equity in the net income of any such Restricted Subsidiary for such period will be included in
such Consolidated Net Income up to the aggregate amount of cash that could have been distributed by such Restricted Subsidiary during such period to the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary as a dividend or other distribution (subject, in the
case of a dividend or other distribution to another Restricted Subsidiary, to the limitation contained in this clause); and 

  

	 	(b)	the Borrower’s equity in a net loss of any such Restricted Subsidiary for such period will be included in determining such Consolidated Net Income;

Administrative Agent) written notice of the Loans to be incurred hereunder on the Effective Date prior to 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the first Business Day prior to the Effective Date. Such notice (the “Notice of Borrowing”) shall

payment in respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes will endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not
affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Notes or Loans. 
 (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in
this Section 2.03 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing its Loans shall affect
or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans (and all related Obligations) which would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or
guaranties therefor provided pursuant to the various Credit Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (c). At any

anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the unpaid principal amount of each Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2% in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan at all times that an Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. In addition (but without duplication of any amounts payable pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence), overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each
Loan shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the rate which is 2% in excess of the rate then borne by Loans hereunder. Interest that accrues under this Section 2.04(b) shall be payable on demand. Payment or acceptance of
the increased rates of interest provided for in this Section 2.04(b) is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the
Administrative Agent or any Lender. 
 (c) Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable in cash (x) quarterly in arrears
on each Quarterly Payment Date, (y) on the date of any repayment or

prepayment in full of all outstanding Loans, and (z) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.

administration thereof by the NAIC or any governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, (i) will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any
corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder, or (ii) shall subject any Lender or Agent to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, or (B) Taxes in clauses (ii) -

Lender or Agent, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of
return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result of such increase of capital or liquidity or such Taxes. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender or Agent will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and
attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s or Agent’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.05 shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties
hereto. Each Lender or Agent, upon determining that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.05, will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for
calculation of such additional amounts. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof, and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for
International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to be a change after the Effective Date in
a requirement of law or government rule, regulation or order, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented for purposes of this Section 2.05.

subject to the requirements of, said Section 13.12(b), so long as the consents, if any, required by Section 13.12(b) in connection with the repayment pursuant to this clause (c) shall have been obtained.

Administrative Agent within 5 Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice indicating its election to so reject such prepayment offer (and any Lender which does not execute and return such Prepayment Option Notice to the
Administrative Agent within such 5 Business Days shall be deemed to have accepted such prepayment offer). On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (i) the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the relevant Lenders the
aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding relevant Loans in respect of which such Lenders have accepted such prepayment offer as described above, and (ii) the Borrower shall be entitled to retain and apply the
remaining portion of the Pulitzer Excess Cash Flow Repayment Amount not accepted by the relevant Lenders in accordance with Section 9.19. 

(d) The Borrower shall prepay the Loans (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any) in such amounts and at such times as
provided in Section 10.05(d). 
 5.03 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments
under this Agreement and under any Note shall be made to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately
available funds at the Payment Office. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof 

  
 65 

 
shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension. 

5.04 Net Payments. (a) All payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower under any Credit Document will be made without setoff,
counterclaim or other defense. Except as required by applicable law, all such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes with respect to such payments (but excluding, (i) any Tax imposed on or

office or applicable lending office of such Lender is located or any subdivision thereof or therein, and (ii) any Tax imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes and branch profits Taxes that are imposed on a
Lender or other Recipient as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender or Recipient and the jurisdiction of the governmental authority imposing such Tax or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof (other than
connections arising from such Lender or Recipient having executed, delivered, become a party to, performed its obligations under, received payments under, received or perfected a security interest under, engaged in any other transaction pursuant to
or enforced any Credit Document, or sold or assigned an interest in any Loan or Credit Document), (iii) in the case of a Lender, any United States Federal withholding Tax that is imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of the Lender

each case to the extent that, pursuant to Section 5.04, amounts with respect to such Taxes were either payable to such Lender’s assignor immediately before such Lender became a party hereto or to such Lender immediately before it changed
its lending office, (iv) any Tax imposed on a Lender or other Recipient that is attributable to such Lender’s or other Recipient’s failure to comply with the relevant requirements set forth in Section 5.04(b), and (v) any United

“FATCA”) (all such excluded Taxes in clauses (i) – (v) being referred to, collectively, as “Excluded Taxes”))(all such non-Excluded Taxes being “Indemnified Taxes”). If any
Indemnified Taxes are so levied or imposed, the Borrower agrees to pay the full amount of such Indemnified Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under the Credit Documents, after withholding
or deduction for or on account of any Indemnified Taxes (including such deduction and withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 5.04) , will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Credit
Document as if such Indemnified Taxes had not been levied or imposed. The Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, within 45 days after the date the payment of any Taxes payable hereunder is due pursuant to applicable law, certified copies
of tax receipts evidencing such payment by the Borrower. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and Agent, and reimburse such Lender or Agent upon its written request, for the amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including
Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable pursuant to this sentence) so levied or imposed and paid by such Lender or Agent (other than for 

  
 66 

 
any interest or penalties directly attributable to any failure of a Lender to file any returns or pay any Indemnified Taxes directly attributable to this Agreement, to the extent such Lender was
legally required to file such returns and/or pay such Indemnified Taxes and was reasonably informed by the Borrower about such requirements and had all information necessary to file such returns and/or pay such Indemnified Taxes). For purposes of
this Section 5.04(a), Indemnified Taxes shall include Other Taxes. 
 (b) To the extent it is legally entitled, each Lender that is a
“United States person” (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of a Lender that is an assignee,

prior to the Effective Date or, in the case of a Lender that is an assignee, transferee or acquiror of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 2.06, 2.07 or 13.04(b) (unless the respective Lender was already a Lender hereunder
immediately prior to such assignment, transfer or acquisition), on the date of such assignment, transfer or acquisition to or by such Lender (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent),

Service forms) (or successor forms) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments to be made under this Agreement and under any other Credit Document,
(ii) if the Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and cannot deliver either Internal Revenue Service Form W 8ECI or Form W 8BEN (with respect to a complete exemption under an income tax
treaty) or W-8IMY (or any successor forms) pursuant to clause (i) above, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C (any such certificate, a “Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate”) and (y) two accurate and
complete original signed copies of applicable Internal Revenue Service Form W 8 (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or successor form) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United
States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any other Credit Document, or (iii) any other form prescribed by applicable requirements of U.S. Federal income tax law as a basis for
claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable requirements of law to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to
determine the withholding or deduction required to be made and to permit the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA. In addition, each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Effective Date, when a
lapse in time or change in circumstances renders the previous certification obsolete or inaccurate in any material respect and from time to time thereafter upon the request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such Lender will, to the extent
it is legally entitled, deliver to the 

  
 67 

 
Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W 8ECI, Form W 8BEN (with respect to the benefits of any income tax
treaty), Form W-8IMY (together with any applicable underlying Internal Revenue Service forms) or applicable Form W-8 (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Section 5.04(b)(ii) Certificate, as the case may be, and such other

immediately notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its inability to deliver any such Form or Certificate, in which case such Lender shall not be required to deliver any such Form or Certificate pursuant to this Section 5.04(b).
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the preceding sentence or elsewhere in this Section 5.04 and except as set forth in Section 13.04(b), the Borrower agrees to pay any additional amounts and to indemnify each Lender in
the manner set forth in Section 5.04(a) (without regard to the identity of the jurisdiction requiring the deduction or withholding) in respect of any amounts deducted or withheld as a result of any changes that are effective after the Effective
Date in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof, relating to the deduction or withholding of any Taxes. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.04(b),
the completion, execution and submission of any documentation shall not be required if, in the Lender’s reasonable judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or
would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. 
 (c) Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent for
the full amount of any Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (i) that are attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already reimbursed the
Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) or (ii) that are attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.15 relating to the maintenance of a
Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto in connection with any Credit Document, as
determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. 

(d) Each applicable party’s obligations under this Section 5.04 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under the Credit Documents.

(it being understood and agreed that any representation or warranty which by its terms is made as of a specified date shall be required to be true and correct in all material respects only as of such specified date): 

8.01 Company Status. Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries (i) is a duly organized and validly existing Company in

or authorized which, either individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 8.02
Power and Authority. Each Credit Party has the Company power and authority to execute, deliver and perform the terms and provisions of each of the Credit Documents to which it is party and has taken all necessary Company action to authorize
the execution, delivery and performance by it of each of such Credit Documents. Each Credit Party has duly executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents to which it is party, and each of such Credit Documents constitutes its legal, valid and
binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws generally affecting
creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law). 
 8.03 No
Violation. Neither the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party of the Credit Documents, the Tax Sharing Agreements to which it is a party, nor compliance by it with the terms and provisions thereof, (i) contravenes any

definition of “Credit Documents” in Section 1.01, to the extent such contravention, conflict, breach or violation, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to cause a Pulitzer Material Adverse Effect. 

8.04 Approvals. All necessary governmental (domestic and foreign) and material third party approvals and/or consents in connection with
this Agreement and the other transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Credit Documents shall have been obtained and remain in effect, and all applicable waiting periods with respect thereto shall have expired without any action being taken

and cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries for the Borrower’s respective fiscal year ended on each such date, in each case furnished to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date, present fairly in
all material respects the consolidated financial position of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries at the dates of said financial statements and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods covered thereby. The consolidated balance
sheets of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries at September 29, 2013 and September 30, 2012 and the related consolidated statements of income and cash flows and changes in shareholders’ equity of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries for
Pulitzer’s fiscal year ended on each such date, furnished to the Lenders prior to the Effective Date, present fairly in all material respects the consolidated financial condition of Pulitzer and its Subsidiaries at the date of said financial
statements and the consolidated results of their operations for the periods covered thereby. All such financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied except to the extent provided in the notes to said financial
statements and subject, in the case of the unaudited interim consolidated financial statements of the Borrower and Pulitzer, to normal year-end audit adjustments (all of which are of a recurring nature and none of which, individually or in the
aggregate, would be material) and the absence of footnotes. 

  
 75 

 (b) On and as of the Effective Date, and after giving effect to all Indebtedness (including the
Loans) being incurred or assumed and Liens created by the Credit Parties in connection therewith, (i) the sum of the assets, at a fair valuation, of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a
whole), will exceed its or their respective debts, (ii) the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) has or have not incurred and does or do not intend to incur, and does or do not believe that
it or they will incur, debts beyond its or their respective ability to pay such debts as such debts mature, and (iii) the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) will have sufficient capital
with which to conduct its or their respective businesses. For purposes of this Section 8.05(b), “debt” means any liability on a claim, and “claim” means (a) right to payment, whether or not such a right is
reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured or (b) right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a
payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured or unsecured. The amount of contingent liabilities at any time shall be computed as the amount
that, in the light of all the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability. 

(c) Except as fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to Section 8.05(a) and for the Indebtedness incurred under
this Agreement, the Pulitzer Debt Documents, the First Lien Loan Documents and the First Lien Notes Documents, there were as of the Effective Date no liabilities or obligations with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries of any nature
whatsoever (whether absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise and whether or not due) which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to be material to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries taken as a whole. As of the
Effective Date, the Borrower knows of no basis for the assertion against it or any of its Subsidiaries of any liability or obligation of any nature whatsoever that is not fully disclosed in the financial statements delivered pursuant to
Section 8.05(a) or referred to in the immediately preceding sentence which, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. 

(d) The Projections delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders prior to the Effective Date have been prepared in good faith and are
based on reasonable assumptions, and there are no statements or conclusions in the Projections which are based upon or include information known to the Borrower to be misleading in any material respect or which fail to take into account material
information known to the Borrower regarding the matters reported therein. On the Effective Date, the Borrower believes that the Projections are reasonable and attainable, it being recognized by the Lenders, however, that projections as to future
events are not to be viewed as facts and that the actual results during the period or periods covered by the Projections may differ from the projected results. 

(e) Since September 29, 2013, nothing has occurred that has had, or could reasonably be expected to have, a Material Adverse Effect or a
Pulitzer Material Adverse Effect. 
 8.06 Litigation. Except as set forth in Schedule X (it being understood that disclosure on
Schedule X is not a representation that a matter to which the disclosure relates is 

  
 76 

 
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect), there are no actions, suits, proceedings or governmental investigations pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened with respect to any
Credit Document or otherwise that have had, or could reasonably be expected to have, either individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect. 

8.07 True and Complete Disclosure. All factual information (taken as a whole) theretofore furnished by or on behalf of the Borrower in
writing to the Administrative Agent or any Lender for purposes of or in connection with this Agreement, the other Credit Documents or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is true and accurate in all material respects on the date as of
which such information is dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect at such time in light of the circumstances under which such
information was provided, it being understood and agreed that for purposes of this Section 8.07, such factual information shall not include the Projections or any pro forma financial information. 

8.08 Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. (a) All proceeds of the Loans shall be used by the Borrower (i) to repay
Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement and the Existing First Lien Credit Agreement and (ii) pay fees and expenses in connection therewith. 

(b) No part of the Loans (or the proceeds thereof) will be used to purchase or carry any Margin Stock or to extend credit for the purpose of
purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock. Neither the making of any Loan nor the use of the proceeds thereof will violate or be inconsistent with (x) the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
or (y) Section 8.23. 
 8.09 Tax Returns and Payments. Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has timely filed
or caused to be timely filed (in each case giving effect to all applicable and permitted extensions) with the appropriate taxing authority all Federal and other material returns, statements, forms and reports for taxes (the
“Returns”) required to be filed by, or with respect to the income, properties or operations of, the Borrower and/or any of its Subsidiaries. The Returns accurately reflect in all material respects all liability for taxes of the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, for the periods covered thereby. Each of the Borrower and each of its Subsidiaries has paid all taxes and assessments payable by it which have become due, other than those that are immaterial and those
that are being contested in good faith and adequately disclosed and fully provided for on the financial statements of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP. There is no material action, suit, proceeding, investigation, audit or
claim now pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by any authority regarding any material taxes relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Neither the Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries has incurred, nor will any of them
incur, any material tax liability in connection with transactions contemplated in this Agreement, the First Lien Credit Agreement, the First Lien Notes Indenture or the Pulitzer Debt Agreement (it being understood that the representation contained
in this sentence does not cover any future tax liabilities of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries arising as a result of the operation of their businesses in the ordinary course of business). 

  
 77 

 8.10 Compliance with ERISA. (a) Schedule III sets forth each Plan as of the Effective
Date. Except as disclosed on Schedule III or otherwise as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (it being understood that disclosure on Schedule III is not a representation that
such item is expected to have a Material Adverse Effect): each Plan (and each related trust, insurance contract or fund) is in compliance with its terms and with all applicable laws, including without limitation ERISA and the Code; each Plan (and
each related trust, if any) which is intended to be qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that it meets the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 501(a) of

made with respect to a Plan have been timely made; neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability (including any indirect, contingent or secondary liability to or on account of a Plan) pursuant to Sections 409, 502(i),

risk to the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate of incurring a liability to or on account of a Plan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of ERISA and the Code; no proceedings have been instituted to terminate or appoint a trustee to administer any Plan
which is subject to Title IV of ERISA; no action, suit, proceeding, hearing, audit or investigation with respect to the administration, operation or the investment of assets of any Plan (other than routine audits and claims for benefits) is pending,
expected or threatened; using actuarial assumptions and computation methods consistent with Part 1 of subtitle E of Title IV of ERISA, the aggregate liabilities of the Borrower and its ERISA Affiliates to all Plans which are multiemployer plans (as
defined in Section 4001(a)(3) of ERISA) in the event of a complete withdrawal therefrom, as of the close of the most recent fiscal year of each such Plan ended prior to the Effective Date, would not exceed $10,000,000; each group health plan

 78 

 
liability (other than any termination of employees which, individually or in the aggregate, may trigger a complete or partial withdrawal from a multiemployer pension fund). 

(b) Except as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect: each Foreign

any Foreign Pension Plan; and the present value of the accrued benefit liabilities (whether or not vested) under each Foreign Pension Plan, determined as of the end of the Borrower’s most recently ended fiscal year on the basis of actuarial
assumptions, each of which is reasonable, did not exceed the current value of the assets of such Foreign Pension Plan allocable to such benefit liabilities.

its Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to all material properties (and to all buildings, fixtures and improvements located thereon) owned by it, including all material property reflected in the most recent

each of its Subsidiaries is in compliance with all applicable Environmental Laws and the requirements of any permits issued under such Environmental Laws. There are no pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened Environmental Claims

Property owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to be subject to any restrictions on the ownership, lease, occupancy or transferability of such Real Property by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under any

 (b) Hazardous Materials have not at any time been generated, used, treated or stored on, or transported to

warranties made in this Section 8.18 shall be untrue only if the effect of any or all conditions, violations, claims, restrictions, failures and noncompliances of the types described above could, either individually or in the aggregate,

 9.12
Further Assurances; etc. (a) The Borrower will cause (i) each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Foreign Subsidiary and any Immaterial Subsidiary (so long as such Immaterial Subsidiary remains an Immaterial Subsidiary))
created or acquired after the Effective Date to become party to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and each Intercreditor Agreement (to the extent applicable to such Domestic Subsidiary) in accordance with the terms of the Guarantee and
Collateral Agreement and each such Intercreditor Agreement (ii) any Non-Guarantor Subsidiary to become a Subsidiary Guarantor at the time that (and as a condition precedent to such other Guarantee being so given (but without limiting any other
provisions of this Agreement prohibiting, restricting or otherwise limiting such other Guarantee; it being understood that no such other Guarantee shall be given by any Pulitzer Entity prior to the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date) such Non-Guarantor
Subsidiaries become “Guarantors” or “Subsidiary Guarantors” of (or the equivalent under) any First Lien Documents or Pulitzer Debt Documents. On and as of the date that a Lien is granted or otherwise created under any First Lien
Documents (or, if applicable, any documentation governing any Permitted First Lien Refinancing Indebtedness) on any asset or property of Pulitzer or any of its Subsidiaries, and as a condition precedent to such Liens being so granted or created (but
without 

  
 94 

 
limiting any other provisions of this Agreement prohibiting, restricting or otherwise limiting such Liens or the granting thereof; it being understood that no such Lien shall be granted or
otherwise created on such assets or property prior to the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date), (x) such Subsidiary of Pulitzer shall be a Restricted Subsidiary, (y) such asset or property shall constitute Pulitzer Collateral under and in
accordance with the applicable Security Documents and (z) the Collateral Agent, Pulitzer, and the collateral agents or trustees under each of the First Lien Documents (or if applicable, the collateral agent or trustee under all Permitted First
Lien Refinancing Indebtedness) shall have executed and delivered the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement and such Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement shall be in full force and effect. 

(b) The Borrower will, and will cause each other Credit Party to, grant to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors
security interests and Mortgages in or on such assets and Real Property of the Borrower and such other Credit Party as are not covered by the Security Documents as in effect on the Effective Date (other than any Real Property listed on Part B of
Schedule IX, any Excluded TNI Assets and any Excluded Real Property) and as may be reasonably requested from time to time by the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (collectively, the “Additional Security Documents”). All
such security interests and Mortgages shall be granted pursuant to the documentation and other deliverables required pursuant to Section 9.16 reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Collateral Agent and shall constitute valid and
enforceable perfected security interests, hypothecations and Mortgages superior to and prior to the rights of all third Persons and enforceable against third parties and subject to no other Liens except for Permitted Liens or, in the case of Real
Property, the Permitted Encumbrances related thereto. The Additional Security Documents or instruments related thereto shall have been duly recorded or filed in such manner and in such places as are required by law to establish, perfect, preserve
and protect the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent required to be granted pursuant to the Additional Security Documents and all taxes, fees and other charges payable in connection therewith shall have been paid in full. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, this Section 9.12(b) shall not apply to (and the Borrower and the other Credit Parties shall not be required to grant a Mortgage in) any Real Property owned by a Credit Party on the Effective Date that as of the Effective
Date is not subject to a Mortgage under a Debt Facility in existence immediately prior to the Effective Date, property currently held for sale shown on Part B of Schedule IX, and Real Property acquired after the Effective Date the
Fair Market Value (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower) of which individually is less than $3,000,000 (any such Real Property, “Excluded Real Property”). 

(c) The Borrower will, and will cause each of the other Credit Parties to, at the expense of the Borrower, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge,
file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, copies of its most recent
surveys, reports, landlord waivers, bailee agreements, control agreements and other assurances or instruments and take such further steps relating to the Collateral covered by any of the Security Documents (other than with respect to Excluded Real
Property and Excluded TNI Assets) as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require; provided, that the Collateral Agent shall not require new surveys of the Borrower’s or any Credit Party’s real properties. In addition, at the time
that the actions required or requested to be taken pursuant to clause (a) above are taken, the Borrower will cause the respective Domestic Subsidiaries to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, all relevant documentation

  
 95 

 
(including, but not limited to, (i) opinions of counsel in respect of the effectiveness of UCC financing statements and/or Mortgages to perfect a Lien on the applicable Credit Party’s
property and (ii) officers’ certificates) of the type described in Section 6 as each such Domestic Subsidiary would have had to deliver if it were a Credit Party on the Effective Date. Furthermore, the Borrower will, and will cause
the other Credit Parties to, deliver to the Collateral Agent such opinions of counsel, officers’ certificates, title insurance and other related documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to assure itself that this
Section 9.12 has been complied with. 
 (d) If the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders reasonably determine that they are
required by law or regulation to have appraisals prepared in respect of any Real Property of the Borrower and the other Credit Parties constituting Collateral, the Borrower will, at its own expense, provide to the Administrative Agent appraisals
which satisfy the applicable requirements of the Real Estate Appraisal Reform Amendments of the Financial Institution Reform, Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, as amended, and which shall otherwise be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. 
 (e) The Borrower agrees that, subject to Section 9.12(f) (which Section 9.12(f), in
the case of an inconsistency with this Section 9.12(e), will control) each action required by Section 9.12(a), (b) and (c) shall be completed as soon as possible, but in no event later than 30 days or, in the case of Mortgages,
90 days (or, in either case, such later date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), after such action is required to be taken or requested to be taken by the Administrative Agent; provided that, in no event will
the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries be required to take any action, other than using its commercially reasonable efforts, to obtain consents from third parties with respect to its compliance with this Section 9.12. 

(f) The Borrower agrees that (x) to the extent that it is unable to deliver to the Collateral Agent on or prior to the Effective Date any
of the documents described in Section 9.16, the Borrower shall and shall cause each of its Subsidiaries to deliver to the Collateral Agent such documents as soon as commercially reasonable and in any event no later than 90 calendar days after
the Effective Date (or such other later date as the Collateral Agent may reasonably agree) and (y) no later than the date of compliance (or required compliance) with the preceding clause (x), the Borrower shall pay or reimburse, as the case may
be, all of the reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel) of the Agents and the Initial Lenders contemplated by Section 13.01 that shall have been invoiced in writing at least
one Business Day prior to such date.

amounts of shares required to be held by local nationals in each case to the extent required by applicable law). 
 9.14 Compliance with
Pulitzer Debt Documents. Without limitation to any other provision of this Agreement, until the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, the Borrower will cause each of the Pulitzer Entities to perform all of their respective obligations under the terms
of 

  
 96 

 
the Pulitzer Debt Documents as in effect on the date hereof, including, without limitation, the affirmative and negative covenants set forth in Paragraphs 6 and 7 of the Pulitzer Debt Agreement;
provided, that with respect to any such covenants set forth in such Pulitzer Debt Agreement, compliance therewith for purposes of this Section 9.14 shall be determined after giving effect to (x) a static cushion of 15.0% over any
numerical- or amount-based exceptions or baskets set forth therein (as reasonably determined by the the Administrative Agent) and (y) any period of grace or cure period applicable thereto under such Pulitzer Debt Agreement. 

9.15 Foreign Subsidiaries. Neither the Borrower nor any other Credit Party shall have any Foreign Subsidiaries other than Subsidiaries
that, if such Subsidiaries were Domestic Subsidiaries, would be Immaterial Subsidiaries. 
 9.16 Mortgage; Title Insurance; Survey;
Landlord Waivers; etc. The Borrower shall deliver, or cause the applicable other Credit Party to deliver, to the Collateral Agent (provided that such delivery requirement shall be subject to Section 9.12(f)):

reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent, which Mortgages and UCC Fixture Filings, if any, shall cover each Real Property owned by the Borrower or any other Credit Party as set forth on Part A of Schedule IX (it being understood that this

such Mortgage for recording; 
 (b) a Mortgage Policy relating to each Mortgage of the Mortgaged Property referred to above,

mortgage lien on such Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all defects and encumbrances except Permitted Encumbrances, with each such Mortgage Policy to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent; it being understood
that Chicago Title Insurance Company is an acceptable insurer and that no endorsements or affirmative coverage will be required or requested which would require a survey or which are otherwise not available or which, individually, would cost in
excess of 10% of the policy premium; 
 (c) to induce the title company to issue the Mortgage Policies referred to in
subsection (b) above, such affidavits, certificates, information and instruments of indemnification (including, without limitation, a so-called “gap” indemnification) as shall be required by such title company, together with payment
by the Borrower of all Mortgage Policy premiums, search and examination charges, mortgage recording taxes, fees, charges, costs and expenses required for the recording of such Mortgages and issuance of such Mortgage Policies; 

(d) to the extent requested by the Collateral Agent and otherwise available without cost to the Borrower, a survey of each
Mortgaged Property (and all 

  
 97 

 
improvements thereon) in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent or complete copies of all such surveys as most recently completed; 

(e) (A) A completed “Life-of-Loan” Federal Emergency Management Agency standard flood hazard determination together

amount reasonably satisfactory to the Collateral Agent and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Insurance Laws and (B) deliver to the Collateral Agent evidence of such
compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. As used herein, “Flood Insurance Laws” means, collectively, (i) the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 as now or hereafter in effect or any
successor statute thereto, (ii) the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973 as now or hereafter in effect or any successor statute thereto, (iii) the National Flood Insurance Reform Act of 1994 as now or hereafter in effect or any successor

applicable to such Lender.

of, Permitted Indebtedness of the Lee Entities (other than such Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to the Credit Documents) which are due and payable)) and (ii) except as otherwise permitted under this Agreement, any voluntary prepayments of any

Section 10.01(b) or could be Incurred pursuant to Section 10.01(a), the Borrower, in its sole discretion, may divide and classify such item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) on the date of Incurrence and may later reclassify such
item of Indebtedness (or any portion thereof) in any manner that complies with this 

  
 105 

 
Section 10.01 and will only be required to include the amount and type of such Indebtedness once; provided that all Indebtedness outstanding on the Effective Date under the First Lien
Credit Documents and the First Lien Notes Indenture shall be deemed Incurred on the Effective Date under Section 10.01(b)(ii) and may not later be reclassified;

pursuant to Section 10.01(b)(ii) above and the letters of credit relate to other Indebtedness, then such other Indebtedness shall not be included; 

(iii) except as provided in Section 10.01(c)(ii), Guarantees of, or obligations in respect of letters of credit relating
to, Indebtedness that is otherwise included in the determination of a particular amount of Indebtedness shall not be included; 

(iv) the principal amount of any Disqualified Stock or Preferred Equity will be equal to the greater of the maximum mandatory
redemption or repurchase price (not including, in either case, any redemption or repurchase premium) or the liquidation preference thereof; 

(v) Indebtedness permitted by this Section 10.01 need not be permitted solely by reference to one provision permitting
such Indebtedness but may be permitted in part by one such provision and in part by one or more other provisions of this Section 10.01 permitting such Indebtedness; 

(vi) the amount of Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof will be equal to the amount of
the liability in respect thereof determined in accordance with GAAP; 
 (vii) for purposes of any Indebtedness Incurred under
Section 10.01(b)(iv), it is understood and agreed that payments may be made thereon unless a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and except as otherwise provided in any applicable Intercompany Subordination Agreement;
and 
 (viii) for purposes of any Indebtedness Incurred under Section 10.01(a) and 10.01(b)(ii), it is understood and
agreed that the phrase “direct and/or primary obligor” shall mean, when referencing any party, the party that is directly responsible for making principal and interest payments for the relevant outstanding Payment Obligation. 

(d) Accrual of interest, accrual of dividends, the accretion of accreted value or the amortization of debt discount, the payment of interest in
the form of additional Indebtedness, the payment of dividends in the form of additional shares of Preferred Equity or Disqualified Stock and the payment of any premiums, fees, costs, expenses or charges, in each case, will not be deemed to be an
Incurrence of Indebtedness for purposes of this Section 10.01. Unless otherwise expressly provided for herein, for all purposes under the this Agreement, the amount of any Indebtedness outstanding as of any date shall be (i) in the case of
Disqualified Stock or Preferred Equity, the amount determined as provided in Section 10.01(c)(iv), (ii) in the case of 

  
 106 

 
Indebtedness issued at a price that is less than the principal amount thereof, the amount determined in accordance with Section 10.01(c)(vi), (iii) in the case of any other
Indebtedness, the principal amount thereof (including, in the case of Indebtedness with interest payable in kind, any interest that is more than 30 days past due), (iv) in the case of the Guarantee by a specified Person of Indebtedness of
another Person, the maximum liability to which the specified Person may be subject upon the occurrence of the contingency giving rise to the Payment Obligation and (v) in the case of Indebtedness of others Guaranteed solely by means of a Lien
on any asset or property of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (and not to their other assets or properties generally), the lesser of (x) the Fair Market Value of such asset or property on the date on which such Indebtedness is Incurred
and (y) the amount of the Indebtedness so secured. 
 (e) In addition, the Borrower will not permit any of its Unrestricted Subsidiaries
to Incur any Indebtedness or issue any shares of Disqualified Stock, other than Non-Recourse Debt. If at any time an Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed to be Incurred by a
Restricted Subsidiary as of such date (and, if such Indebtedness is not permitted to be Incurred as of such date under this Section 10.01, the Borrower shall be in Default under Section 11.03). 

(f) For purposes of determining compliance with any Dollar denominated restriction on the Incurrence of Indebtedness, the Dollar equivalent
principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency shall be calculated based on the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date such Indebtedness was Incurred, in the case of term Indebtedness, or first committed, in the
case of revolving credit Indebtedness; provided that if such Indebtedness is Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency, and such Refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar denominated restriction to be
exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Refinancing Indebtedness
does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness being Refinanced plus the amount of any reasonable premium (including reasonable tender premiums), defeasance costs and any reasonable fees and expenses Incurred in connection with the
issuance of such new Indebtedness. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 10.01, the maximum amount of Indebtedness that the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries may Incur pursuant to this Section 10.01 shall not be deemed
to be exceeded solely as a result of fluctuations in the exchange rate of currencies. The principal amount of any Indebtedness Incurred to Refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the Indebtedness being Refinanced,
shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate applicable to the currencies in which such Refinancing Indebtedness and Indebtedness being Refinanced are denominated that is in effect on the date of such Refinancing. 

10.02 Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries,
directly or indirectly, to: 
 (i) declare or pay any dividend or make any distribution (whether made in cash, securities or

Subsidiary) or on a basis that results in the receipt by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary of dividends or distributions of a greater value than it would receive on a pro rata basis);

case, prior to any scheduled maturity, scheduled repayment or scheduled sinking fund payment, any Subordinated Obligations, Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or any other Indebtedness secured by a Lien subject (or required to be subject) to an
Additional Junior Intercreditor Agreement (other than (x) Indebtedness of the Borrower owing to and held by any Restricted Subsidiary or Indebtedness of a Restricted Subsidiary owing to and held by the Borrower or any other Restricted
Subsidiary permitted under Section 10.01(b)(iv) and (y) any principal payment, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement of such Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations, as the
case may be, in anticipation of satisfying a sinking fund obligation, principal installment or final maturity, in each case due within one year of the date of principal payment, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or acquisition or
retirement); 
 (iv) [Reserved]; or 

(v) make any Restricted Investment (all such payments and other actions referred to in clauses (i) through (v) (other

Agreement), each determined for the period (taken as one accounting period) from and including the first day of the fiscal quarter in which the Effective Date occurs through and including the last day of the Borrower’s most recently ended

case of other Indebtedness referred to in this clause (b), is secured by Liens on any properties or assets of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries that are expressly junior in
priority to the Liens on such property or assets securing the Obligations pursuant to the Junior Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement or any other intercreditor agreement (as applicable); provided that after
giving effect to any such purchase, repurchase, redemption, acquisition or retirement on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Leverage Ratio would be no greater than 3.25 to 1.00; 

(xvii) (a) the distribution, by dividend or otherwise, of shares of Capital Stock of Unrestricted Subsidiaries (other than
Unrestricted Subsidiaries the primary assets of which are cash and/or Cash Equivalents) and (b) Restricted Payments in the form of Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries in an aggregate amount not to exceed the greater of $16.5 million and
2.1% of Consolidated Total Assets; provided that the aggregate amount of such Investments permitted to be made by the Pulitzer Entities under this clause (b) is the greater of $4.0 million and 0.5% of Consolidated Total Assets; 

(xviii) Restricted Payments that are made with Excluded Contributions; and 

(xix) any repayment of Loans under this Agreement (or the distribution of such amounts to the Borrower by the Pulitzer Entities
in connection therewith) to the extent such repayment is required to be made with Pulitzer Excess Cash Flow. 
 provided, however, that at the
time of and after giving effect to any Restricted Payment permitted under Section 10.02(b)(vi), (xi) or (xvi) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof. 

(c) The amount of all Restricted Payments (other than cash) will be the Fair Market Value on the date of such Restricted Payment of the assets
or securities proposed to be paid, transferred or issued by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, pursuant to such Restricted Payment. The Fair Market Value of any cash Restricted Payment shall be its face amount and the
amount of any non-cash Restricted Payment shall be determined conclusively in Good Faith by the Borrower. 
 (d) For purposes of determining
compliance with this Section 10.02, in the event that a proposed Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Restricted Payments described in Section 10.02(b)(i) through (xix) above
or one or more of the clauses within the definition of Permitted Investment, or is entitled to be made pursuant to Section 10.02(a), the Borrower will be entitled to divide and classify such Restricted Payment (or portion thereof) on the date
of its payment in any manner that complies with Section 10.02 (including, without limitation, by dividing such Restricted Payment among Section 10.02(a), one or more clauses of Section 10.02(b) and/or one or more of the clauses of the
definition of Permitted Investment). 
 (e) If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary makes a Restricted Investment or a Permitted
Investment and the Person in which such Investment was made subsequently becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent such Investment resulted in a 

  
 114 

 
reduction of the amounts calculated under Section 10.02(a) or any other provision of this Section 10.02 or the definition of Permitted Investment (which was not subsequently reversed),
then such reduction shall be equal to the amount of such Investment. 
 (f) As of the Effective Date, all of the Borrower’s Subsidiaries
will be Restricted Subsidiaries. The Borrower will not permit any Unrestricted Subsidiary to become a Restricted Subsidiary except pursuant to the definition of “Unrestricted Subsidiary.” For purposes of designating any Restricted
Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, all outstanding Investments by the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (except to the extent repaid) in the Subsidiary so designated will be deemed to be Restricted Payments in an amount determined as
set forth in the definition of “Investment.” Such designation will be permitted only if a Restricted Payment in such amount would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary. Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be subject to any of the restrictive covenants set forth in this Agreement. 
 10.03
Limitation on Liens. The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, create, Incur or assume any Lien that secures any Indebtedness on any asset or property of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary or
any income or profits therefrom, other than (a) Permitted Liens and (b) Liens securing Indebtedness that are expressly junior in priority to the Liens on such property or assets securing the Obligations pursuant (and otherwise at all times
subject) to the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement or any Additional Junior Intercreditor Agreement. In addition, if the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor shall create, Incur or assume any Lien on any property or asset of the Borrower or any
such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, securing any First Lien Indebtedness or any Priority Payment Lien Obligations, the Borrower or such Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, must concurrently grant a second-priority Lien (which shall
be a first priority Lien in the event the First Lien Indebtedness and the Priority Payment Lien Obligations are no longer outstanding), subject to Permitted Liens, upon such property or asset as security for the Loans and the Subsidiary Guarantees
pursuant to the terms and provisions of the Security Documents and the Lee Intercreditor Agreement. 
 10.04 Limitation on Restrictions
on Distributions from Restricted Subsidiaries. 
 (a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or
otherwise cause or permit to exist any consensual encumbrance or consensual restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary to: 

(i)    (A) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock to the Borrower or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, or (B) pay any Indebtedness or other obligations payable in cash that are owed to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the priority of any Preferred Equity in receiving dividends or
liquidating distributions prior to dividends or liquidating distributions being paid on Common Stock or any other class or series of Preferred Stock shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make distributions on Capital Stock); 

(ii) make any loans or advances to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood that the subordination of
loans or advances made to the Borrower or 

  
 115 

 
any Restricted Subsidiary to other Indebtedness Incurred by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall not be deemed a restriction on the ability to make loans or advances); or 

(iii) sell, lease or transfer any of its property or assets to the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary (it being understood
that such transfers shall not include any type of transfer described in clause (i) or (ii) above). 
 (b) The provisions of
Section 10.04(a) will not prohibit encumbrances or restrictions existing under or by reason of: 
 (i) any encumbrance
or restriction pursuant to an agreement in effect at or entered into on the Effective Date, including, without limitation, the Credit Documents, the Pulitzer Debt Documents, the Pulitzer Intercreditor Agreement, the Lee Intercreditor Agreement, the
Revolving Credit Facility, the First Lien Credit Agreement, and the First Lien Notes Documents as in effect on such date or as the same may be amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with the terms hereof and
thereof, and any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement on the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date (provided that the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement is entered into substantially in the form
thereof attached hereto as Exhibit K on the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date or such other form that is not materially less favorable to the Lenders than the form attached hereto as Exhibit K on the Effective Date); 

(ii) any encumbrance or restriction with respect to a Person or assets pursuant to an agreement in effect on or before the date
on which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, merged into or consolidated with the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary (other than Capital Stock or Indebtedness Incurred as consideration for, or to provide all or any
portion of the funds or credit support utilized to consummate, the transaction or series of related transactions pursuant to which such Person became a Restricted Subsidiary or was acquired by, merged into or consolidated with the Borrower or in
contemplation of the transaction) or such assets were acquired by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; provided, that any such encumbrance or restriction shall not extend to any Person or the assets or property of the Borrower or any
other Restricted Subsidiary other than the Person and its Subsidiaries or the assets and property so acquired (and any proceeds thereof or accessions, improvements or additions thereto); 

(iii) any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement effecting a Refinancing of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to an
agreement referred to in the preceding clause (i) or (ii) or this clause (iii) or contained in any amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing of an agreement referred to in the
preceding clause (i) or (ii) or this clause (iii); provided, however, that the encumbrances and restrictions with respect to such Restricted Subsidiary contained in any such agreement effecting such Refinancing or contained
in such agreement immediately after giving effect to any such amendment, restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing, as the case may be, are not materially less favorable (as determined in Good Faith by the
Borrower), 

  
 116 

 
taken as a whole, to the Lenders than the encumbrances and restrictions contained in such predecessor agreement or contained in such agreement immediately prior to any such amendment,
restatement, modification, renewal, supplement, refunding, replacement or Refinancing, as the case may be; 
 (iv) any
encumbrances or restrictions (a) arising in connection with Liens permitted under the provisions of Section 10.03 and (b) (1) that restrict in a customary manner the subletting, sublicensing, assignment or transfer of any
property or asset that is subject to a lease, sublease, license or similar contract, or the assignment, sublicense or transfer of any such lease, sublease, license or other contract, (2) are contained in mortgages, pledges or other security
agreements permitted under this Agreement securing Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary to the extent such encumbrance or restrictions restrict the transfer of the property subject to such mortgages, pledges or other security
agreements or (3) pursuant to customary provisions restricting dispositions of real property interests set forth in any reciprocal easement agreements of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

(v) Purchase Money Indebtedness and Capitalized Lease Obligations permitted under this Agreement, in each case, that impose
encumbrances or restrictions on the property so acquired (and any proceeds thereof or accessions, improvements or additions thereto); 

(vi) contracts for the sale of assets, including customary restrictions with respect to a Subsidiary of the Borrower pursuant
to an agreement that has been entered into for the sale of all or a portion of the Capital Stock or assets of such Subsidiary; 

(vii) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth requirements imposed by customers or lessors or required by
insurance, surety or bonding companies under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business; 
 (viii) any
customary provisions in joint venture agreements, partnership agreements, limited liability company agreements, sale leaseback agreements and other similar agreements and/or governance documents entered into in the ordinary course of business,
provided that if such joint venture, partnership, limited liability company or other similar entity is a Restricted Subsidiary, such provisions will not materially adversely affect (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower) the
Borrower’s ability to make principal or interest payments on the Loans or, prior to the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, the Pulitzer Debt; 

(ix) any customary provisions in leases, subleases or licenses and other agreements entered into by the Borrower or any
Restricted Subsidiary in the ordinary course of business; 
 (x) encumbrances or restrictions arising or existing by reason
of applicable law or any applicable rule, regulation, order, permit or grant; 
 (xi) encumbrances or restrictions contained
in or arising under indentures or debt instruments or other agreements governing or evidencing Indebtedness Incurred or 

  
 117 

 
entered into or Preferred Equity issued by the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in accordance with and subject to Section 10.01; provided that such encumbrances and restrictions
contained in any agreement or instrument will not materially affect the Borrower’s ability to make principal or interest payments pursuant to this Agreement (as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower); 

(xii) under any contract, instrument or agreement relating to Indebtedness of any Foreign Subsidiary which imposes restrictions
solely on such Foreign Subsidiary and its Subsidiaries; 
 (xiii) encumbrances or restrictions arising in connection with
Hedging Obligations; and 
 (xiv) encumbrances or restrictions imposed by amendments, modifications, restatements, amendments
and restatements, extensions, restructurings, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or other Refinancings of the contracts, instruments or obligations referred to in clauses (i) through (xiii) above;
provided that without duplication of any provisions in clauses (i) through (xiii) above, immediately after giving effect to any such amendment, modification, restatement, amendment and restatement, extension, restructuring,
renewal, increase, supplement, refunding, replacement or other Refinancing, as the case may be, the applicable contract, instrument or other obligation, as the case may be, is, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, not materially more
restrictive with respect to such encumbrance and other restriction, taken as a whole, than those prior to such amendment, modification, restatement, amendment and restatement, extension, restructuring, renewal, increase, supplement, refunding,
replacement or other Refinancing. 
 10.05 Limitation on Asset Dispositions and Subsidiary Stock. (a) The Borrower will not
permit any of the Pulitzer Entities to make any Asset Disposition of any asset of any Pulitzer Entity following the Effective Date unless: 

(i) such Pulitzer Entity receives consideration at least equal to the Fair Market Value (such Fair Market Value to be
determined, at the option of the Borrower or such Pulitzer Entity, as of the date a letter of intent for such Asset Disposition is entered into, as of the date of such Asset Disposition or as of the date of contractually agreeing to such Asset
Disposition) of the assets subject to such Asset Disposition; and 
 (ii) at least 75% of the consideration from such Asset
Disposition received by such Pulitzer Entity is in the form of cash or Cash Equivalents. 
 (b) The Borrower or such Pulitzer Entity shall
determine the Fair Market Value of any consideration from such Asset Disposition that is not cash or Cash Equivalents. 
 (c) Subject to the
terms of the Intercreditor Agreements and the other provisions hereof, any Net Available Cash received by any Pulitzer Entity from any Asset Disposition shall be applied at such Pulitzer Entity’s election for one or more of the following
purposes: 

  
 118 

 (i) in the case of any Asset Disposition by a Pulitzer Entity that is a
Non-Guarantor Subsidiary or consisting of Capital Stock of a Pulitzer Entity that is a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary, to repay Indebtedness of a Pulitzer Entity that is a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary; 

(ii) to reinvest in or acquire assets (including Capital Stock or other securities acquired in connection with the acquisition
of Capital Stock or property of another Person that is or becomes a Pulitzer Entity or that would constitute a Permitted Investment under clause (2) of the definition thereof) used or useful in a Related Business; provided that to the
extent the assets subject to such Asset Disposition were Pulitzer Collateral, such newly acquired assets shall also be Pulitzer Collateral, as required by the terms and provisions of the Security Documents; or 

(iii) solely to the extent such assets subject to such Asset Disposition were Pulitzer Collateral, to repay or prepay Loans.

 (d) All Net Available Cash from an Asset Disposition of assets of a Pulitzer Entity that is not applied or invested (or committed pursuant
to a written agreement to be applied or invested) as provided in subclause (i), (ii) or (iii) of Section 10.05(c) within 365 days after receipt of such Net Available Cash (or in the case of any amount committed to be so applied or
reinvested, which are not actually so applied or reinvested within 180 days following such 365 day period) will be deemed to constitute “Excess Proceeds.” At any time after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date that the aggregate
amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $2.0 million, the Borrower shall promptly make a prepayment on the Loans at par, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, in an amount equal to 100% of such Excess Proceeds. 

(e) For the purposes of this covenant, the following are deemed to be cash: (x) the assumption of Indebtedness or other liabilities of a
Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Pulitzer Entity (other than Disqualified Stock or Subordinated Obligations) or Indebtedness or other liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Pulitzer Entity (other than Guarantor Subordinated Obligations or
Disqualified Stock of any such Subsidiary Guarantor) and the release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from all liability on such Indebtedness or liabilities in connection with such Asset Disposition, (y) securities, notes or similar obligations
received by any Pulitzer Entity from the transferee that are converted within 180 days following the closing of such Asset Disposition by such Pulitzer Entity into cash, and (z) any Designated Non-cash Consideration received by such Pulitzer
Entity in such Asset Disposition having an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined in Good Faith by the Borrower), taken together with all other Designated Non-cash Consideration received pursuant to this clause (z) that is at that time
outstanding, not to exceed the greater of $5.5 million and 1.0% of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of the receipt of such Designated Non-cash Consideration (with the Fair Market Value of each item of Designated Non-cash Consideration being
determined in Good Faith by the Borrower at the time received and without giving effect to subsequent changes in value). 
 (f) Pending the
final application of any such Net Available Cash, the Pulitzer Entities may use such Net Available Cash to reduce revolving Indebtedness under any Debt Facility solely of the Pulitzer Entities (without any requirement to permanently reduce the
availability or commitment thereunder) or otherwise invest such Net Available Cash in Cash 

  
 119 

 
Equivalents or otherwise use such monies for any other purpose, subject to the other covenants contained in this Agreement. 

10.06 Limitation on Affiliate Transactions. 

(a) The Borrower will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, enter into or conduct any transaction (including the
purchase, sale, lease or exchange of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Borrower (an “Affiliate Transaction”) involving aggregate payments or consideration in excess of $1.0 million per
transaction or series of related transactions unless: 
 (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction, when viewed together
with any related Affiliate Transactions, are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than those that could be obtained in a comparable transaction at the time of such transaction in arm’s
length dealings with a Person that is not an Affiliate; 
 (ii) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate
consideration in excess of $10.0 million, the terms of such transaction have been approved by a majority of the disinterested members of the Board of Directors of the Borrower (and such majority determines that such Affiliate Transaction satisfies
the criteria in clause (i) above); and 
 (iii) in the event such Affiliate Transaction involves an aggregate
consideration in excess of $25.0 million, the Borrower has received a written opinion from an Independent Financial Advisor that such Affiliate Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to the Borrower and the Restricted Subsidiaries, as
applicable, or not materially less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate. 

(b) The provisions of Section 10.06(a) will not apply to: 

(i) Restricted Payments permitted to be made pursuant to Section 10.02 and (ii) Permitted Investments (other than
Permitted Investments made pursuant to clause (2) or (21) of the definition thereof); 
 (ii) any issuance or
purchase of securities or other payments, awards or grants in cash, securities or otherwise pursuant to, or the funding of, employment agreements and other compensation arrangements, severance arrangements, options to purchase Capital Stock of the
Borrower, restricted stock plans, stock option plans, other equity incentive plans, long-term incentive plans, stock appreciation rights plans, participation plans or similar employee benefits plans, pension plans, equity incentive compensation
plans or similar plans or agreements or arrangements approved by the Borrower; 
 (iii) loans or advances, or Guarantees of
third party loans or advances, to Officers, employees, consultants, members of management and directors of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower in the ordinary course of business, in an

  
 120 

 
aggregate amount outstanding at any time not in excess of $5.5 million (without giving effect to the forgiveness of any such loan); 

(iv) the payment of reasonable and customary fees and expenses to, and indemnity provided on behalf of, directors of the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or trustees of any stock option plan, stock purchase plan, other equity incentive plan, pension plan, deferred compensation plan, employee stock ownership plan or other similar plan of the Borrower or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries; 
 (v) any transaction between or among the Borrower and any Restricted Subsidiary or between or
among Restricted Subsidiaries, and any Guarantees issued by the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary for the benefit of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that this clause (v) shall not include transactions between any Lee
Entity, on the one hand, and any Pulitzer Entity, on the other hand, except as otherwise permitted hereunder; 
 (vi) the
payment of reasonable and customary compensation (including fees, expenses, benefits, severance, change of control payments and equity and other incentive arrangements) to, and employee benefit arrangements, including, without limitation,
split-dollar insurance policies, and indemnity or similar arrangements provided on behalf of, directors, officers, employees, members of management, consultants and agents of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, whether by charter, bylaw,
statutory, insurance or contractual provisions or otherwise; 
 (vii) the existence of, and the performance of obligations of
the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries under the terms of, any agreement or arrangement to which the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party as of or on the Effective Date, as these agreements may be amended, modified,
supplemented, extended or renewed from time to time; provided, however, that any future amendment, modification, supplement, extension or renewal entered into after the Effective Date will be permitted to the extent that, immediately
after giving effect thereto, the applicable agreement, taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Lenders, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, than the terms of such agreement in effect on the Effective Date; 

(viii) (a) any agreement between any Person and an Affiliate of such Person existing at the time such Person is acquired
by or merged with or into or consolidated with the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that such agreement was not entered into in contemplation of such acquisition, merger or consolidation, or any amendment thereto (so long as,
immediately after giving effect to any such amendment, the applicable agreement, taken as a whole, is not materially more disadvantageous to the Lenders, as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, as compared to the applicable agreement as in
effect on the date of such acquisition or merger or consolidation) and (b) any merger or consolidation of the Borrower with or into an Affiliate of the Borrower solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Borrower in another jurisdiction;

  
 121 

 (ix) transactions with customers, clients, suppliers, joint venturers or
partners, limited or general partnerships or the partners thereof, limited liability companies or the members thereof (including, without limitation, pursuant to the terms of any applicable joint venture agreements, partnership agreements or limited
liability company agreements), or purchasers or sellers of goods or services, in each case in the ordinary course of the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that as determined in Good Faith by the Borrower, such
transactions are on terms, taken as a whole, that are not materially less favorable to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been obtained in a comparable transaction by the Borrower or such Restricted
Subsidiary with a Person that is not an Affiliate; 
 (x) any purchases by the Borrower’s Affiliates of Indebtedness of
the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries the majority of which Indebtedness is placed with Persons who are not Affiliates of the Borrower; 

(xi) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the Borrower to Affiliates of the Borrower and
the granting of registration and other customary rights in connection therewith or any contribution to the Capital Stock of the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary; 

(xii) transactions between the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, on the one hand, and MNI, Capital Times, CDP or TNI
Partners, on the other hand, in the ordinary course of business; 
 (xiii) any transaction on arm’s length terms with
non-Affiliates that become Affiliates as a result of such transaction; 
 (xiv) the payment of all fees, costs and expenses
(including any payments in respect of bonuses and awards) related to the refinancings and related transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and 

(xv) transactions in which the Borrower or an Restricted Subsidiary delivers to the Administrative Agent an opinion or
appraisal issued by an independent accounting, appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing stating that the terms of such transaction, taken as a whole, are not materially less favorable than those that might reasonably have been
obtained by the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary in a comparable transaction at such time on an arm’s length basis from a Person that is not an Affiliate. 

10.07 Merger and Consolidation. (a) The Borrower will not consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not the Borrower is
the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, whether in one or multiple related
transactions, to, any Person unless: 
 (i) if other than the Borrower, the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the
“Successor Borrower”) will be a corporation, partnership or limited liability 

  
 122 

 
company organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State of the United States, any territory thereof or the District of Columbia; 

(ii) the Successor Borrower (if other than the Borrower) and, in the case of a Successor Borrower that is not a corporation, a
corporate co-borrower, shall assume pursuant to documentation instruments, executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, in forms reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, all of the Obligations of the
Borrower under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to which the Borrower is a party and the Pulitzer Debt Documents to which the Borrower is a party (as applicable) and the Lee Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor
Agreement and the Pulitzer Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) and, to the extent required by and subject to the limitations set forth in the applicable Security Documents, will cause such amendments, supplements or other instruments to be
executed, filed and recorded in such jurisdictions as may be required by applicable law to preserve and protect the Lien on the Collateral owned by or transferred to the Successor Borrower, together with such financing statements or comparable
documents to the extent required by and subject to the limitations set forth in the applicable Security Documents, as may be required to perfect any security interests in such Collateral which may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement
or a similar document under the Uniform Commercial Code or other similar statute or regulation of the relevant states or jurisdictions; 

(iii) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an
obligation of the Borrower, the Successor Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Borrower, the Successor Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no
Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; 
 (iv) immediately after giving pro forma effect
to such transaction and any related financing transactions, as if such transactions had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, (A) the Borrower or the Successor Borrower, as applicable, would be able to Incur at least
$1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 10.01(a) or (B) the Consolidated Leverage Ratio for the Successor Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries would be less than or equal to such Consolidated Leverage Ratio prior to such
transaction; 
 (v) if the Successor Borrower is not the Borrower, each Subsidiary Guarantor (unless it is the other party to
the transactions above, in which case clause (i) shall apply) shall have, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, confirmed that its Subsidiary Guarantee shall apply to all of such
Successor Borrower’s obligations under this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall constitute Obligations) and that such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under the Security Documents to which it is a party and the Lee
Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) shall continue to be in full force and effect and, to the extent required by and subject to the limitations set forth in
the applicable Security Documents, shall cause such amendments, supplements or other instruments to be executed, filed, and recorded in 

  
 123 

 
such jurisdictions as may be required by applicable law to preserve and protect the Lien on the Collateral owned by such Subsidiary Guarantor, together with such financing statements or
comparable documents to the extent required by and subject to the limitations set forth in the applicable Security Documents, as may be required to perfect any security interests in such Collateral which may be perfected by the filing of a financing
statement or a similar document under the Uniform Commercial Code or other similar statute or regulation of the relevant states or jurisdictions; and 

(vi) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an Officers’ Certificate and an opinion of counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, each stating, inter alia, that such consolidation, merger or transfer and such additional documentation (if any) comply with this Section 10.07 and, if any
supplement to any Security Document is required in connection with such transaction, that such supplement complies with the applicable provisions of this Agreement. 

(b) Without compliance with Section 10.07(a)(iii) and (iv): 

(i) any Restricted Subsidiary may consolidate with, merge with or into or to the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor
(provided that no Pulitzer Entity shall consolidate with, merge with or into any Lee Entity) so long as no Capital Stock of the Restricted Subsidiary is distributed to any Person other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor;
provided that, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that merges into the Borrower, the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not be required to comply with Section 10.07(a)(v) and (vi); and 

(ii) the Borrower may merge with an Affiliate of the Borrower solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Borrower in another
State of the United States, any territory thereof or the District of Columbia to realize tax or other benefits, so long as the amount of Indebtedness of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby; provided that, in
the case of a Restricted Subsidiary that merges into the Borrower, the Borrower and the Subsidiary Guarantors will not be required to comply with the preceding clauses (v) and (vi). 

(c) In addition, the Borrower will not permit any Subsidiary Guarantor to consolidate with or merge with or into (whether or not the Subsidiary
Guarantor is the surviving corporation), or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets, in one or more related transactions, to any Person (other than to the Borrower
or another Subsidiary Guarantor) unless: 
 (i) if such entity remains a Subsidiary Guarantor: (a) the resulting,
surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Guarantor”) will be a corporation, partnership, trust or limited liability company that is a Domestic Subsidiary; (b) the Successor Guarantor, if other than such Subsidiary
Guarantor, expressly assumes in writing, executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent, in form reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lenders and the Administrative Agent, all the obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under its Subsidiary
Guarantee, this Agreement, the Security Documents to which such 

  
 124 

 
Subsidiary Guarantor is a party, the Lee Intercreditor Agreement, the Pulitzer Junior Intercreditor Agreement and the Pulitzer Intercreditor Agreement (as applicable) and, to the extent required
by and subject to the limitations set forth in the applicable Security Documents, shall cause such amendments, supplements or other instruments to be executed, filed and recorded in such jurisdictions as may be required by applicable law to preserve
and protect the Lien on the Collateral owned by or transferred to the Successor Guarantor, together with such financing statements or comparable documents to the extent required by and subject to the limitations set forth in the applicable Security
Documents, as may be required to perfect any security interests in such Collateral which may be perfected by the filing of a financing statement or a similar document under the Uniform Commercial Code or other similar statute or regulation of the
relevant states or jurisdictions; (c) immediately after giving pro forma effect to such transaction (and treating any Indebtedness which becomes an obligation of the Successor Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary as a result of such
transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Guarantor or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default of Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (d) if the relevant Subsidiary Guarantor was a

properties and assets to another Subsidiary Guarantor or the Borrower or (ii) merge with a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower solely for the purpose of reincorporating the Subsidiary Guarantor in a State of the United States or the District
of Columbia, as long as the amount of Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Guarantor and its Restricted Subsidiaries is not increased thereby (and such surviving entity remains a Subsidiary Guarantor) and (b) any Restricted Subsidiary may dissolve,
liquidate or wind up its affairs or merge with or into the Borrower or another Restricted Subsidiary (other than a Subsidiary Guarantor dissolving, liquidating or winding up its affairs with its assets being transferred to a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary
or a Subsidiary Guarantor merging into a Non-Guarantor Subsidiary if the survivor is not a Subsidiary Guarantor) if such dissolution, liquidation or winding-up or merger is in the best interest of the Borrower (as determined in Good Faith by the
Borrower); provided that no Pulitzer Entity shall merge with or into or transfer all or part of its properties or assets (except as otherwise permitted hereunder with respect to cash flows of the Pulitzer Entities) to any Lee Entity.

SECTION 12. The Administrative Agent. 

12.01 Appointment. The Lenders hereby irrevocably designate and appoint Wilmington Trust, National Association as Administrative Agent
(for purposes of this Section 12 and Section 13.01, the term “Administrative Agent” also shall include Wilmington Trust, National Association in its capacity as Collateral Agent under the Security Documents) to act as specified
herein and in the other Credit Documents and hereby instruct the Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, as applicable. Each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes, and each holder of any Note by the
acceptance of such Note shall be deemed irrevocably to authorize, the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf 

  
 132 

 
under the provisions of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to herein or therein and to exercise such powers and to perform such duties
hereunder and thereunder as are specifically delegated to or required of the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof and such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent may perform any of its respective
duties hereunder by or through its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Credit Document to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not take any discretionary action (other than
any such actions of a purely administrative or ministerial nature) or exercise any discretionary powers, including in each case any expressions of satisfaction, except such discretionary actions and powers exercised in the manner directed by the
Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under Section 13.12(a)), and in the absence of any such direction shall refrain from taking any such discretionary actions or exercising any such
discretionary powers. 
 12.02 Nature of Duties. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities
except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Credit Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates shall be liable for any action taken or omitted by it or them
hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in connection herewith or therewith, unless caused by its or their gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).
The duties of the Administrative Agent shall be mechanical and administrative in nature; the Administrative Agent shall not have by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder
of any Note; and nothing in this Agreement or in any other Credit Document, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to impose upon the Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit
Document except as expressly set forth herein or therein. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of
any other Credit Document, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Book Running Managers and are named as such for recognition purposes only, and in their respective capacities as such shall have no powers, duties, responsibilities or liabilities
with respect to this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; it being understood and agreed that the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint Book Running Managers shall each be entitled to all
indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Administrative Agent as, and to the extent, provided for under Sections 12.06 and 13.01. Without limitation of the foregoing, none of the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Joint Book Running
Managers shall, solely by reason of this Agreement or any other Credit Documents, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender or the holder of any Note. 

12.03 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, each Lender and
the holder of each Note, to the extent it deems appropriate, has made and shall continue to make (i) its own independent investigation of the financial condition and affairs of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in connection with the making and
the continuance of the Loans and the taking or not taking of any action in connection herewith and (ii) its own appraisal of the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement, the
Administrative Agent shall not have 

  
 133 

 
any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit or other information with respect thereto, whether coming
into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible to any Lender or the holder of any Note for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties
herein or in any document, certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith or for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness, validity, enforceability, perfection, collectability, priority or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other
Credit Document or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or be required to make any inquiry concerning either the performance or observance of any of the terms, provisions or conditions of this Agreement or any other
Credit Document, or the financial condition of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the existence or possible existence of any Default or Event of Default. 

12.04 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent requests instructions from the Required Lenders with
respect to any act or action (including failure to act) in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until the Administrative
Agent shall have received instructions from the Required Lenders; and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, neither any Lender nor the holder of any Note shall
have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder or under any other Credit Document in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders.

 12.05 Reliance. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any note,
writing, resolution, notice, statement, certificate, telex, teletype or telecopier message, cablegram, radiogram, order or other document or telephone message signed, sent or made by any Person that the Administrative Agent reasonably believed to be
the proper Person, and, with respect to all legal matters pertaining to this Agreement and any other Credit Document and its duties hereunder and thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by the Administrative Agent. 

12.06 Indemnification. To the extent the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) is not reimbursed and indemnified by the
Borrower, the Lenders will reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any affiliate thereof) in proportion to their respective “percentage” as used in determining the Required Lenders for and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, costs, expenses or disbursements of whatsoever kind or nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent (or any affiliate thereof) in
performing its duties hereunder or under any other Credit Document or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document with respect to such duties or its role as Administrative Agent; provided that no
Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s (or such affiliate’s) gross
negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). 

  
 134 

 12.07 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its obligation
to make Loans under this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have the rights and powers specified herein for a “Lender” and may exercise the same rights and powers as though it were not performing the duties specified herein;
and the term “Lender”, “Required Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, include the Administrative Agent in its respective individual capacities. The Administrative
Agent and its affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, investment banking, trust or other business with, or provide debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial
advisory services) to any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party (or any Person engaged in a similar business with any Credit Party or any Affiliate thereof) as if they were not performing the duties specified herein, and may accept fees
and other consideration from any Credit Party or any Affiliate of any Credit Party for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without having to account for the same to the Lenders. 

12.08 Holders. The Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes hereof unless and
until a written notice of the assignment, transfer or endorsement thereof, as the case may be, shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any request, authority or consent of any Person who, at the time of making such request or giving
such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee, assignee or endorsee, as the case may be, of such Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor. 

12.09 Resignation by the Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may (and must, if so directed by the Required Lenders,
with or without cause (any such resignation, a “Mandatory Resignation”)) resign from the performance of all its respective functions and duties hereunder and/or under the other Credit Documents (including, for the avoidance of
doubt, in its capacity as Collateral Agent) at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice of any such resignation (other than a Mandatory Resignation) to the Lenders and, unless a Default or an Event of Default under Section 11.05
then exists, the Borrower. 
 (b) Upon any such notice of resignation (or upon a Mandatory Resignation) by the Administrative Agent, the
Required Lenders shall appoint a successor Administrative Agent who shall be a financial institution acceptable to the Required Lenders in their sole discretion; provided that if no Event of Default then exists and such successor
Administrative Agent’s stated annual fees exceed $75,000 per year, such successor Administrative Agent shall also be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. 

(c) If a successor Administrative Agent shall not have been so appointed within such 30 day period, the Administrative Agent, with the consent
of the Required Lenders (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), shall then appoint a successor Administrative Agent (provided that if no Event of Default then exists and such successor Administrative Agent’s stated
annual fees exceed $75,000 per year, such successor Administrative Agent shall also be reasonably acceptable to the Borrower, which acceptance shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) who shall serve as Administrative

  
 135 

 
Agent until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. 

(d) If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to clause (b) or (c) above by the 35th day after the date any
such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under
any other Credit Document until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above. 
 (e)
Upon a resignation of the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.09, such former Administrative Agent shall remain indemnified to the extent provided in this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and the provisions of this
Section 12 (and the analogous provisions of the other Credit Documents) shall continue in effect for the benefit of such former Administrative Agent for all of its actions and inactions while serving as the Administrative Agent. 

12.10 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the Collateral Agent to enter into the Security Documents for the
benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Creditors. Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders
(or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 13.12) in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders (or all the Lenders, as the case may be) of the
powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the
necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or the Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the
security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents. 
 (b) The Lenders hereby authorize the
Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations at any time arising under or in respect of
this Agreement or the Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the Borrower and its Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other
disposition thereof in compliance with Section 10.02, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 13.12) or (iv) as otherwise
may be expressly provided in this Agreement and/or the relevant Security Documents. Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items
of Collateral pursuant to this Section 12.10. 
 (c) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any
other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Credit Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully
created, perfected, protected or 

  
 136 

 
enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights,
authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 12.10 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the
Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a
court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). 
 (d) The Lenders hereby authorize and instruct the Collateral
Agent to enter into each Intercreditor Agreement and to take all actions and execute all documents required or deemed advisable by it in accordance with the terms of each such Intercreditor Agreement. 

12.11 Delivery of Information. The Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver to any Lender originals or copies of any
documents, instruments, notices, communications or other information received by the Administrative Agent from any Credit Party, any Subsidiary, the Required Lenders, any Lender or any other Person under or in connection with this Agreement or any
other Credit Document except (i) as specifically provided in this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) as specifically requested from time to time in writing by any Lender with respect to a specific document, instrument, notice
or other written communication received by and in the possession of the Administrative Agent at the time of receipt of such request and then only in accordance with such specific request. 

SECTION 13. Miscellaneous. 

13.01 Payment of Expenses, etc. The Borrower hereby agrees to: (i) whether or not the transactions herein contemplated are
consummated, reimburse or pay, as the case may be, from time to time (x) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of the respective legal counsel of each Agent
(including, without limitation, any successor Agent contemplated by Section 12.09, including any such successor Agent appointed following a Mandatory Resignation) and of a single counsel for the Initial Lenders) of the Agents and the Initial
Lenders in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9.12) and the other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein
and therein and in connection with any amendment, waiver or consent relating hereto or thereto, and (y) all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Agents and the Lenders in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement and the
other Credit Documents and the documents and instruments referred to herein and therein or in connection with any refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this Agreement in the nature of a “work-out” or
pursuant to any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings (including, in each case without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and consultants for each Agent and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default, each of the Lenders); (ii) without duplication with Section 5.04(a), pay and hold each Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all present and future stamp, excise and other similar documentary taxes with
respect to the foregoing matters and save each Agent and each of the Lenders harmless from and against any and all liabilities with respect to or resulting from any delay or omission (other than to the extent attributable to such Agent or such
Lender) to pay such 

  
 137 

 
taxes; and (iii) indemnify each Agent and each Lender, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, representatives, agents, affiliates, trustees and investment advisors
(each, an “Indemnitee”) from and hold each of them harmless against any and all liabilities, obligations (including removal or remedial actions), losses, damages, penalties, claims, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and
disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’ and consultants’ fees and disbursements) of whatsoever kind or nature incurred by, imposed on or assessed against any of them as a result of, or arising out of, or in any way related to, or by
reason of, (a) any investigation, litigation or other proceeding (whether or not any Agent or any Lender is a party thereto and whether or not such investigation, litigation or other proceeding is brought by or on behalf of any Credit Party)
related to the entering into and/or performance of this Agreement or any other Credit Document or the use of the proceeds of any Loans hereunder or the consummation of any transactions contemplated herein or in any other Credit Document or the
exercise of any of their rights or remedies provided herein or in the other Credit Documents or in any other way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or (b) the actual or alleged presence of Hazardous
Materials in the air, surface water or groundwater or on the surface or subsurface of any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the generation, storage, transportation, handling or disposal
of Hazardous Materials by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries at any location, whether or not owned, leased or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, the non-compliance by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries with any
Environmental Law (including applicable permits thereunder) applicable to any Real Property, or any Environmental Claim asserted against the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any Real Property at any time owned, leased or operated by the Borrower
or any of its Subsidiaries, including, in each case, without limitation, the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel and other consultants incurred in connection with any such investigation, litigation or other proceeding (but excluding any
losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable
decision)). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay or hold harmless any Agent or any Lender set forth in the preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, the Borrower shall make the
maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the indemnified liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, except as expressly provided herein, this Section 13.01 shall not apply with
respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses arising from any non-Tax claim. No Indemnitee shall be liable for any indirect, special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages in connection
with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby. 
 13.02 Right of Setoff.
(a) Subject to the terms of each Intercreditor Agreement and Section 13.06, in addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law or otherwise, and not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and each Lender is hereby authorized at any time or from time to time, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind to any Credit Party or to any other
Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived, to set off and to appropriate and apply any and all deposits (general or special) and any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by the Administrative Agent or such Lender

  
 138 

 
(including, without limitation, by branches and agencies of the Administrative Agent or such Lender wherever located) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower or any other Credit Party
against and on account of the Obligations and liabilities of the Credit Parties to the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or under any of the other Credit Documents, including, without limitation, all interests in Obligations
purchased by such Lender pursuant to Section 13.06(b), and all other claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or
such Lender shall have made any demand hereunder and although said Obligations, liabilities or claims, or any of them, shall be contingent or unmatured. 

(b) NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING SUBSECTION (a), AT ANY TIME THAT THE LOANS OR ANY OTHER OBLIGATION SHALL BE SECURED BY REAL PROPERTY
LOCATED IN CALIFORNIA, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE A RIGHT OF SETOFF, LIEN OR COUNTERCLAIM OR TAKE ANY COURT OR ADMINISTRATIVE ACTION OR INSTITUTE ANY PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE ANY PROVISION OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY NOTE UNLESS IT IS TAKEN WITH THE CONSENT
OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS OR APPROVED IN WRITING BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, IF SUCH SETOFF OR ACTION OR PROCEEDING WOULD OR MIGHT (PURSUANT TO CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL PROCEDURE SECTIONS 580a, 580b, 580d AND 726 OF THE CALIFORNIA CODE OF CIVIL
PROCEDURE OR SECTION 2924 OF THE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE, IF APPLICABLE, OR OTHERWISE) AFFECT OR IMPAIR THE VALIDITY, PRIORITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THE LIENS GRANTED TO THE COLLATERAL AGENT PURSUANT TO THE SECURITY DOCUMENTS OR THE ENFORCEABILITY OF
THE NOTES AND OTHER OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER, AND ANY ATTEMPTED EXERCISE BY ANY LENDER OF ANY SUCH RIGHT WITHOUT OBTAINING SUCH CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT SHALL BE NULL AND VOID. THIS SUBSECTION (b) SHALL BE SOLELY
FOR THE BENEFIT OF EACH OF THE LENDERS AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT HEREUNDER. 
 13.03 Notices. Except as otherwise expressly
provided herein, all notices and other communications provided for hereunder shall be in writing (including facsimile or electronic mail) and sent or delivered by mail, facsimile, electronic mail or overnight courier service: if to any Credit Party,

Administrative Agent, at the Notice Office; or, as to any Credit Party or the Administrative Agent, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto and, as to each Lender, at such other
address as shall be designated by such Lender in a written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. All such notices and communications shall, when sent by mail, facsimile, electronic mail or courier, be effective when deposited in the

Agent or the Borrower, as the case may be. 

  
 139 

 13.04 Benefit of Agreement; Assignments; Participations. (a) This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the respective successors and assigns of the parties hereto; provided, however, the Borrower may not assign or transfer any of its rights, obligations or interest hereunder
without the prior written consent of each Lender and, provided, further, that, although any Lender may transfer, assign or grant participations in its rights hereunder, such Lender shall remain a “Lender” for all purposes
hereunder and the transferee, assignee or participant, as the case may be, shall not constitute a “Lender” hereunder and, provided, further, that no Lender shall transfer or grant any participation under which the participant
shall have rights to approve any amendment to or waiver of this Agreement or any other Credit Document except to the extent such amendment or waiver would (i) extend the final scheduled maturity of any Loan or Note in which such participant is
participating, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest or Fees thereon (except in connection with a waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates) or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being
understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or to Section 13.07(a) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or Fees payable hereunder), or increase the amount of the
participant’s participation over the amount thereof then in effect (it being understood that a waiver of any Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a change in the terms of such participation), (ii) consent to the assignment or
transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement or (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral under all of Security Documents (except as expressly provided in the Credit Documents) supporting the
Loans in which such participant is participating. In the case of any such participation, the participant shall not have any rights under this Agreement or any of the other Credit Documents (including, without limitation, any rights of set-off) (the
participant’s rights against such Lender in respect of such participation to be those set forth in the agreement executed by such Lender in favor of the participant relating thereto) and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be
determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing, each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.05 and 5.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein,
including the requirements under 5.04(b) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 5.04(b) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by
assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided further that such participant (i) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.05 and 5.04 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and
(ii) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 2.05 and 5.04 with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a
greater payment results from an adoption of or any change in any applicable law, treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the interpretation thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not
having the force of law) from any central bank or other governmental authority made subsequent to the date hereof that occurs after the participant acquired the applicable participation. 

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Lender (or any Lender together with one or more other Lenders) may (x) assign all or a portion of
its outstanding Obligations hereunder to (i)(A) its parent company and/or any affiliate of such Lender which is at least 50% owned by such Lender or its parent company or (B) to one or more other Lenders or any affiliate of any such other
Lender which is at least 50% owned by such other Lender or its parent 

  
 140 

 
company (provided that any fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of another fund which is a Lender (or by an Affiliate of such investment
advisor) shall be treated as an affiliate of such other Lender for the purposes of this sub-clause (x)(i)(B)), or (ii) in the case of any Lender that is a fund that invests in loans, any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or
advised by the same investment advisor of any Lender or by an Affiliate of such investment advisor or (y) assign all, or if less than all, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Lender or assigning Lenders, of
such outstanding Obligations hereunder to one or more Eligible Transferees (treating any fund that invests in loans and any other fund that invests in loans and is managed or advised by the same investment advisor of such fund or by an Affiliate of
such investment advisor as a single Eligible Transferee), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, provided that (i) at such time, Schedule I shall
be deemed modified to reflect the outstanding Loans of such new Lender and of the existing Lenders, (ii) upon the surrender of the relevant Notes by the assigning Lender (or, upon such assigning Lender’s indemnifying the Borrower for any
lost Note pursuant to a customary indemnification agreement) new Notes will be issued, at the Borrower’s expense, to such new Lender and to the assigning Lender upon the request of such new Lender or assigning Lender, such new Notes to be in
conformity with the requirements of Section 2.03 (with appropriate modifications) to the extent needed to reflect the revised outstanding Loans, as the case may be, (iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Default
or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall be required in connection with any such assignment pursuant to clause (y) above (each of which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that consent shall be
deemed to have been given by the Borrower if the Borrower has not responded within five Business Days of a request therefor), (iv) the Administrative Agent shall receive at the time of each such assignment, from the assigning or assignee
Lender, the payment of a non-refundable assignment fee of $3,500, and (v) no such transfer or assignment will be effective until recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register pursuant to Section 13.15. To the extent of any
assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b), the assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations hereunder with respect to its assigned outstanding Loans. At the time of each assignment pursuant to this Section 13.04(b) to a Person
which is not already a Lender hereunder, the respective assignee Lender shall, to the extent legally entitled to do so, provide to the Borrower the appropriate Internal Revenue Service Forms (and, if applicable, a Section 5.04(b)(ii)
Certificate) described in Section 5.04(b). To the extent that an assignment of all or any portion of a Lender’s outstanding Obligations pursuant to Section 2.07 or this Section 13.04(b) would, at the time of such assignment,
result in increased costs under Section 2.05 or 5.04 from those being charged by the respective assigning Lender prior to such assignment, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower, in
accordance with and pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement, shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective assignment). 

(c) Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or prohibit (c) any Lender from pledging its Loans and Notes hereunder to secure obligations
of such Lender, including an pledge to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank in support of borrowings made by such Lender from such Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank and, with prior notification to the Administrative Agent (but
without the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower), any Lender which is a fund may pledge all or any portion of its Loans and Notes to its trustee or 

  
 141 

 
to a collateral agent providing credit or credit support to such Lender in support of its obligations to such trustee, such collateral agent or a holder of such obligations, as the case may be.
No pledge pursuant to this clause (c) shall release the transferor Lender from any of its obligations hereunder. 
 13.05 No Waiver;
Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit Document and no course of dealing between the
Borrower or any other Credit Party and the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Credit
Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Credit Document expressly provided are cumulative and not
exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Credit Party in any case shall entitle any Credit Party to any other or further notice
or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. 

13.06 Payments Pro Rata. (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent agrees that promptly after
its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Lenders entitled thereto (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to
waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received. 

(b) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by
voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Credit Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the
payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total
of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations
of the respective Credit Party to such Lenders in such amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such
Lenders, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
 13.07
Calculations; Computations. (a) The financial statements to be furnished to the Lenders pursuant hereto shall be made and prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the periods involved (except as set forth in the
notes thereto or as otherwise disclosed in writing by the Borrower to the Lenders). 

  
 142 

 (b) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 365/366 days
for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. 

13.08 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. (a) THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENTS AND
THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER AND THEREUNDER SHALL, EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN ANY MORTGAGE, BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE INTERNAL LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAWS
PRINCIPLES. ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING WITH RESPECT TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT MAY BE BROUGHT IN THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK OR OF THE UNITED STATES FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, IN EACH CASE WHICH ARE
LOCATED IN THE COUNTY OF NEW YORK, AND, BY EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE PERSONAL

AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED COURTS, THAT SUCH COURTS LACK PERSONAL JURISDICTION OVER THE BORROWER. THE BORROWER FURTHER IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO THE SERVICE OF PROCESS OUT OF ANY OF THE AFOREMENTIONED
COURTS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING BY THE MAILING OF COPIES THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL, POSTAGE PREPAID, TO THE BORROWER AT ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH OPPOSITE ITS SIGNATURE BELOW, SUCH SERVICE TO BECOME EFFECTIVE 30 DAYS AFTER SUCH
MAILING. THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION TO SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS AND FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING COMMENCED HEREUNDER OR UNDER ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT THAT SERVICE
OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LENDER OR THE HOLDER OF ANY NOTE TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR
OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST THE BORROWER IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
 (b) THE BORROWER HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY
NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY OF THE AFORESAID ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER CREDIT DOCUMENT BROUGHT IN THE COURTS REFERRED TO IN CLAUSE (a) ABOVE AND HEREBY

(except in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates), or reduce the principal amount thereof (it being understood that any amendment or modification to the financial definitions in this Agreement or

additional extensions of credit of the type provided to the Loans on the Effective Date), (iv) reduce the percentage specified in the definition of Required Lenders (it being understood
that, with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the extensions of Loans are included on the
Effective Date) or (v) consent to the assignment or transfer by the Borrower of any of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided further, that no such change, waiver, discharge or termination shall, (1) without the
consent of the Administrative Agent, amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 12 or any other provision as same relates to the rights or obligations of the Administrative Agent or (2) without the consent of the Collateral Agent,
amend, modify or waive any provision relating to the rights or obligations of the Collateral Agent or (3) without the consent of the Required Lenders, amend, modify or waive any provision or clause of, or any condition set forth in,
Section 6. 
 (b) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination of or to any of the provisions of this
Agreement as contemplated by clauses (i) through (v), inclusive, of the first proviso to Section 13.12(a), the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required is
not obtained, then the Borrower shall have the right, so long as all non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as described below, to replace each such non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more Replacement
Lenders pursuant to Section 2.07 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such Replacement Lender consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination. 

13.13 Survival. All indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation, in Sections 2.05, 5.04, 12.06 and 13.01 shall survive
the execution, delivery and termination of this Agreement and the Notes and the making and repayment of the Obligations. 
 13.14 Domicile
of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or affiliate of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to
this Section 13.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.05 or 5.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such
increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes after the date of the respective transfer). 

13.15 Register. The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as its non-fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this
Section 13.15, to maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record the Loans made by each of the Lenders and each repayment in respect of the principal amount of the Loans of each Lender. Failure to make any such
recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower or any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such
Lender’s Loans) at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. With respect to any Lender, the transfer of its rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Loan shall not be effective until such transfer is
recorded on the Register maintained by the Administrative Agent with respect to ownership of such Loan and 

  
 145 

 
prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Loan shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any
Loans shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Register only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption Agreement pursuant to Section 13.04(b). Coincident with the
delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption Agreement to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Lender shall
surrender the Note (if any) evidencing such Loan, and thereupon one or more new Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assigning or transferor Lender and/or the new Lender at the request of any such Lender. The Borrower
agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under
this Section 13.15 (but excluding any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or expenses to the extent incurred by reason of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)). Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each
participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any
obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any participant or any information relating to a participant’s interest in any Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement)
except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be
conclusive, and such Lender, each Credit Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. 
 13.16 Confidentiality. (a) Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of
this Section 13.16, each Lender agrees that it will use its reasonable efforts not to disclose without the prior consent of the Borrower (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors or counsel or to another Lender if such Lender or such
Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to the same extent as such
Lender) any non-public confidential information with respect to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any
such information (i) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 13.16(a) by the respective Lender or is or has become available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis, (ii) as
may be required or appropriate in any report, statement or testimony submitted to any municipal, state or Federal regulatory body having or claiming to have jurisdiction over such Lender or to the Federal Reserve Board or the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation or similar organizations (whether in the United States or elsewhere) or their successors, (iii) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in
order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any direct or indirect contractual 

  
 146 

 
counterparty in any swap, hedge or similar agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor) or to any credit insurance provider relating to the Borrower and its
obligations, so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) or credit insurance provider agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 13.16 and (vii) to any prospective or actual transferee or participant
in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or any interest therein by such Lender, provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this
Section 13.16. 
 (b) The Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates, and such
affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non-public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries), in
each case only if such Lender or affiliate shall have determined in its sole discretion that the Lender or affiliate with whom the information is to be shared should have access to such information; provided that such Persons shall be subject
to the provisions of this Section 13.16 to the same extent as such Lender. 
 13.17 Application of Proceeds. 

(a) After the exercise of remedies (including rights of setoff) provided for in Section 11 (or after the Loans and the Obligations owing
hereunder have automatically become immediately due and payable as set forth in Section 11), any amounts received on account of the Obligations (whether as a result of a payment under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, any realization on
the Collateral, any setoff rights, any distribution in connection with any proceedings or otherwise and whether received in cash or otherwise) shall be applied in the following order: 

First, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other
than principal and interest, but including legal fees and expenses payable under the Security Documents) payable to the Collateral Agent in its capacity as such; 

Second, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting fees, indemnities, expenses and other amounts (other
than principal and interest, but including legal fees and expenses payable under Section 13.01 and amounts payable under Sections 2.05 and 5.04) payable to the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such; 

Third, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting Fees, indemnities and other fees and amounts (other
than principal and interest) payable to the Lenders (including legal fees and expenses payable under Section 13.01 and amounts payable under Sections 2.05 and 5.04), ratably among them in proportion to the amounts described in this clause
Third payable to them; 
 Fourth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting accrued and unpaid
interest on the Loans, ratably among the Lenders in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fourth payable to them; 

  
 147 

 Fifth, to payment of that portion of the Obligations constituting unpaid
principal of the Loans, ratably among the applicable Secured Creditors in proportion to the respective amounts described in this clause Fifth held by them; 

Sixth, to the payment of all other Obligations that are due and payable to the Administrative Agent and the other
applicable Secured Creditors on such date, ratably based upon the respective aggregate amounts of all such Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent and the other applicable Secured Creditors on such date; and 

Last, the balance, if any, after all of the Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full, to the Borrower or as
otherwise required by law. 
 (b) If any Secured Creditor collects or receives any amounts received on account of the Obligations to which it
is not entitled under Section 13.17(a) hereof, such Secured Creditor shall hold the same in trust for the applicable Secured Creditors entitled thereto and shall forthwith deliver the same to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such
Secured Creditors, to be applied in accordance with Section 13.17(a) hereof, in each case until the prior payment in full in cash of the applicable Obligations of such Secured Creditors. 

13.18 The Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the USA PATRIOT ACT (Title 111 of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001))
(the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and the other Credit Parties and other
information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and the other Credit Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

	 	•	 	GCIU-Employer Retirement Plan 

  

	 	•	 	District No. 9 I.A.M. Pension Trust 

 The following Plans sponsored by Lee Enterprises,
Incorporated (the “Company”) have, within the last five (5) years, submitted Voluntary Correction Program applications to correct operational and plan document errors: 

 

	 	•	 	Joseph Pulitzer Pension Plan (Compliance Statement received) 

  

	 	•	 	Lee Enterprises, Inc. Consolidated Retirement Plan (Compliance Statement received) 

  

	 	•	 	Lee Enterprises, Incorporated Employees’ Retirement Account Plan (Compliance Statement received) 

 Except
with respect to the following two matters (which are currently pending before the IRS), in all instances, the Internal Revenue Service issued a Compliance Statement with respect to the corrections undertaken by the respective Plan. 

The third-party administrator for the Lee Enterprises, Incorporated Employees’ Retirement Account Plan (the
“Administrator”), filed a group Voluntary Correction Program application to address issues related to its failure to administer plan loans in accordance with applicable Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department rules for a
number of the ERISA plans it services, including the Lee Enterprises, Incorporated Employees’ Retirement Account Plan. The Administrator has informed the Company that it has received a Compliance Statement with regard to this application. The
Administrator filed a group Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program application with regard to such failures, and the Company has agreed to be part of this filing. The Administrator’s failure to comply with applicable rules in administering
certain plan loans of participants in the Lee Enterprises, Incorporated Employees’ Retirement Account Plan could result in the technical disqualification of the plan; however, the Company believes such an event is highly unlikely. As of the
date of this Agreement, the Company is unaware of any resolution of this Voluntary Fiduciary Correction Program application but anticipates a favorable decision by the Department of Labor. 

The Administrator has notified the Company that it intends to submit a group Voluntary Correction Program application on behalf of a number of
plans (including the Lee Enterprises, Incorporated Employees’ Retirement Account Plan) to address certain administrative errors with regard to its handling of required minimum distributions. As of the date of this Agreement, the Company has
assented to being part of this application, but it does not appear that the application 

  
 Schedules to Lee
Enterprises, Incorporated 
 Second Lien Loan Agreement dated as

 SCHEDULE III 

Page 2 
  

 
has yet been filed by the Administrator. While it is technically possible that the Administrator’s failure to administer all required minimum distribution payments in accordance with
applicable Internal Revenue Service and Treasury Department rules could result in the plan’s disqualification. Such a result is not expected by the Company, nor is it believed by the Company to be probable. 

As a part of its acquisition of Pulitzer Inc. (“Pulitzer”), the Company acquired all employee benefit plans or arrangements
sponsored and maintained by Pulitzer, including a disability income arrangement that provides certain income replacement benefits in the event of an employee’s disability. The Company is currently reviewing this arrangement to determine its
compliance with all applicable laws. The Company expects some corrective actions to be required, but expects the financial cost of these actions to not be in excess of $1 million. 

The Company makes contributions to three multiemployer plans on behalf of certain collectively bargained employees. Based upon the most recent
communications received by the Company from these plans’ administrators, the Company believes the following plans may be in “endangered” or “critical” status: 

 

	 	•	 	CWA/ITU Negotiated Pension Plan (“Critical” status) 

  

	 	•	 	GCIU-Employer Retirement Plan (“Critical” status) 

 The Company sponsors two
defined-benefit pension plans for which the fair market value of the assets of such plan is less than the present value of all benefits accrued under such Plan (determined based on those assumptions used to fund such Plan), as follows: 

 

	 	•	 	Joseph Pulitzer Pension Plan (Funding Target Attainment Percentage, as of January 1, 2013, is 86%) 

  

	 	•	 	Lee Enterprises, Inc. Consolidated Retirement Plan (Funding Target Attainment Percentage, as of January 1, 2013, is 86%) 

The Company makes contributions to three multiemployer pension plans (District No. 9 I.A.M. Pension Trust, CWA/ITU Negotiated Pension
Plan, and GCIU-Employer Retirement Fund). Lee Enterprises, Incorporated has an accrued liability related to the GCIU-Employer Retirement Fund as a result of a partial withdrawal that occurred in 2008. The Company is not aware of any other current
withdrawal liabilities. If, in the future, the Company were to withdraw from one of these multiemployer pension plans or trigger a partial withdrawal due to declines in contribution base units, and such plan(s) had unfunded vested benefits at the
time of the company’s withdrawal or partial withdrawal from such plan(s), the Company could owe the plan(s) significant withdrawal liability which could reduce the cash available for the Company’s business.

Litigation 
 In 2008, a
group of newspaper carriers filed suit against us in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, claiming to be our employees and not independent contractors. The plaintiffs seek relief related to alleged violations of
various employment-based statutes, and request punitive damages and attorneys’ fees. This case is proceeding to trial. Although trial has not been set, a Final Pretrial Conference is scheduled for March 21, 2014. The Company denies the
allegations of employee status, consistent with our past practices and industry standards, and will continue to vigorously contest the claims in the action, which are not covered by insurance. At this time we are unable to predict whether the
ultimate economic outcome, if any, could have a material effect on our Consolidated Financial Statements, taken as a whole. 
 We are
involved in a variety of other legal actions that arise in the normal course of business. Insurance coverage mitigates potential loss for certain of these other matters.

W I T N E S S E T H: 

WHEREAS, Lee Enterprises, Incorporated (the “Borrower”), the lenders from time to time party thereto (the

the Borrower, all as contemplated therein (with the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent being herein called the “Secured Creditors”) (as used herein, the term “Loan Agreement” means the Second
Lien Loan Agreement described above in this paragraph, as the same may be amended, restated, modified, supplemented, extended, renewed, refinanced, replaced, or refunded from time to time, and including any agreement extending the maturity of, or
refinancing or restructuring (including, but not limited to, the inclusion of additional borrowers or guarantors thereunder or any increase in the amount borrowed) all or any portion of, the indebtedness under such agreement or any successor
agreement, whether or not with the same agent, trustee, representative, lenders or holders; provided that, with respect to any subsequent agreement providing for the refinancing or replacement of indebtedness under the Loan Agreement, such
agreement shall only be treated as, or as part of, the Loan Agreement hereunder if (i) either (A) all obligations under the Loan Agreement being refinanced or replaced shall be paid in full at the time of such refinancing or replacement or
(B) the Required Lenders shall have consented in writing to the refinancing or replacement indebtedness being treated as indebtedness pursuant to the Loan Agreement, and (ii) a notice to the effect that the refinancing or replacement

original Parties hereto; 

  
 G-1 

 WHEREAS, additional Parties may from time to time become parties hereto in order to allow for
certain extensions of credit in accordance with the requirements of the Loan Agreement; and 
 WHEREAS, each of the original Parties desires
to execute this Agreement to satisfy the conditions described in the immediately preceding paragraphs. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual promises contained herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged by the parties hereto, the Parties and the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of the Senior Creditors)
hereby agree as follows: 
 1. The Subordinated Debt (as defined in Section 7 hereof) and all payments of principal, interest and all
other amounts thereunder are hereby, and shall continue to be, subject and subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full, in cash, of all Senior Indebtedness to the extent, and in the manner, set forth herein. The foregoing shall
apply notwithstanding the availability of collateral to the Senior Creditors or the holders of Subordinated Debt or the actual date and time of execution, delivery, recordation, filing or perfection of any security interests granted with respect to
the Senior Indebtedness or the Subordinated Debt, or the lien or priority of payment thereof, and in any instance wherein the Senior Indebtedness or any claim for the Senior Indebtedness (as defined in Section 7 hereof) is subordinated, avoided
or disallowed, in whole or in part, under the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable federal, foreign, state or local law. In the event of a proceeding, whether voluntary or involuntary, for insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution,
bankruptcy or other similar proceeding pursuant to the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable federal, foreign, state or local law (each, a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”), the Senior Indebtedness shall include all interest accrued on the
Senior Indebtedness, in accordance with and at the rates specified in the Senior Indebtedness, both for periods before and for periods after the commencement of any of such proceedings, even if the claim for such interest is not allowed pursuant to
the Bankruptcy Code or other applicable law. 
 2. Each Party (as a lender of any Subordinated Debt) hereby agrees that until the Senior
Indebtedness Termination Date shall have occurred: 
 (a) Such Party shall not, without the prior written consent of the Required Senior
Creditors (as defined in Section 7 hereof), which consent may be withheld or conditioned in the Required Senior Creditors’ sole discretion, commence, or join or participate in, any Enforcement Action (as defined in Section 7 hereof).

 (b) In the event that (i) all or any portion of any Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid after it becomes due (whether at stated
maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), (ii) any Event of Default under the Loan Agreement or any event of default under, and as defined in, any other Senior Indebtedness (or the documentation governing the same), then exists or would result
from such payment on the Subordinated Debt (including, without limitation, pursuant to Section 11.09 of the Loan Agreement), (iii) such Party receives any payment or prepayment of principal, interest or any other amount, in whole or in
part, of (or with respect to) the Subordinated Debt in violation of the terms of the Loan Agreement or any other Senior 

  
 G-2 

 
Indebtedness (or the documentation governing the same) or (iv) any distribution, division or application, partial or complete, voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, is
made of all or any part of the property, assets or business of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the proceeds thereof, in whatever form, to any creditor or creditors of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or to any holder of
indebtedness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or by reason of any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or their respective businesses, or of any receivership or custodianship for the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or of all or substantially all of their respective property, or of any insolvency or bankruptcy proceedings or assignment for the benefit of creditors or any proceeding by or against the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries for any relief under any bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency law or laws, federal, foreign, state or local, or any law, federal, foreign, state or local relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness,
reorganization, composition or extension, then, and in any such event, any payment or distribution of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, which shall be payable or deliverable with respect to any or all of the
Subordinated Debt or which has been received by any Party shall (subject to the Intercreditor Agreements) be held in trust by such Party for the benefit of the Senior Creditors and shall forthwith be paid or delivered directly to the Senior
Creditors for application to the payment of the Senior Indebtedness (after giving effect to the relative priorities of such Senior Indebtedness) to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all sums due under the Senior Indebtedness
remaining unpaid after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the Senior Creditors. In any such event, the Senior Creditors may (subject to the Intercreditor Agreements), but shall not be obligated to, demand, claim and collect
any such payment or distribution that would, but for these subordination provisions, be payable or deliverable with respect to the Subordinated Debt. In the event of the occurrence of any event referred to in subclauses (i), (ii), (iii) or
(iv) of the second preceding sentence of this clause (b) and until the Senior Indebtedness Termination Date shall have occurred and all of the obligations of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries to the Senior Creditors have been
performed in full, no payment of any kind or character (whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise) shall be made to or accepted by any Party in respect of the Subordinated Debt. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, if
one or more of the events referred to in subclauses (i) through (iv) of the first sentence of this clause (b) is in existence, the Required Senior Creditors may agree in writing that payments may be made with respect to the
Subordinated Debt which would otherwise be prohibited pursuant to the provisions contained above, provided that any such waiver shall be specifically limited to the respective payment or payments which the Required Senior Creditors agree may
be so paid to any Party in respect of the Subordinated Debt. 
 (c) If such Party shall acquire by indemnification, subrogation or otherwise,
any lien, estate, right or other interest in any of the assets or properties of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, that lien, estate, right or other interest shall be subordinate in right of payment to the Senior Indebtedness and the lien of
the Senior Indebtedness as provided herein, and such Party hereby waives any and all rights it may acquire by subrogation or otherwise to any lien of the Senior Indebtedness or any portion thereof until such time as the Senior Indebtedness
Termination Date shall have occurred. 
 (d) Such Party shall not pledge, assign, hypothecate, transfer, convey or sell any Subordinated Debt
or any interest in any Subordinated Debt to any entity (other than under 

  
 G-3 

 
the relevant Security Documents (as hereinafter defined) or in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Loan Agreement to a Credit Party which is a Party hereto) without the prior written
consent of the Administrative Agent (with the prior written consent of the Required Senior Creditors). 
 (e) After request by the
Administrative Agent or the Required Senior Creditors, such Party shall within ten (10) days furnish the Senior Creditors with a statement, duly acknowledged and certified setting forth the original principal amount of the notes evidencing the
indebtedness of the Subordinated Debt, the unpaid principal balance, all accrued interest but unpaid interest and any other sums due and owing thereunder, the rate of interest, the monthly payments and that, to the best knowledge of such Party,
there exists no defaults under the Subordinated Debt, or if any such defaults exist, specifying the defaults and the nature thereof. 
 (f)
In any case commenced by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar federal, foreign, state or local statute (a “Reorganization Proceeding”), to the extent permitted by applicable
law, the Required Senior Creditors shall (subject to the Intercreditor Agreements) have the exclusive right to exercise any voting rights in respect of the claims of such Party against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. 

(g) If, at any time, all or part of any payment with respect to Senior Indebtedness theretofore made (whether by the Borrower, any other Credit
Party or any other Person or enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise) is rescinded or must otherwise be returned by the holders of Senior Indebtedness for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or
reorganization of the Borrower, any other Credit Party or such other Persons), the subordination provisions set forth herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as though such payment had not been made. 

(h) Such Party shall not object to the entry of any order or orders approving any cash collateral stipulations, adequate protection
stipulations or similar stipulations executed by the Senior Creditors in any Reorganization Proceeding or any other proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code. 

(i) Such Party waives any marshalling rights with respect to the Senior Creditors in any Reorganization Proceeding or any other proceeding
under the Bankruptcy Code. 
 (j) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if any amount otherwise required to be held for or paid to
the Senior Creditors is required to be held for or paid to any other Senior Creditors (as defined in the Lee Intercompany Subordination Agreement) pursuant to the Lee Intercompany Subordination Agreement, the terms of the Lee Intercompany
Subordination Agreement, shall supersede the terms hereof and such amounts may be held for or paid to such other Senior Creditors (as defined in the Lee Intercompany Subordination Agreement) pursuant to the Lee Intercompany Subordination Agreement,
without resulting in any violation by such Party of this Agreement. 
 3. Each Party hereby represents, warrants and covenants as follows:

  
 G-4 

 (a) each Party will deliver a schedule setting forth all Intercompany Debt to the Administrative
Agent within 10 days after any request by the Administrative Agent or the Required Senior Creditors (although any failure to deliver such a supplement shall have no effect whatsoever on the subordination provisions contained herein, which shall
apply to all Subordinated Debt whether or not listed on said schedule); and 
 (b) each Party will not lend, hold or permit to exist any
Intercompany Debt owed by it or to it (in accordance with the definition thereof contained herein) unless each obligee or obligor, as the case may be, with respect to such Intercompany Debt is (or concurrently with such extension becomes) a Party to
this Agreement. 
 4. Any payments made to, or received by, any Party in respect of any guaranty or security in support of the Subordinated
Debt shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and applied on the same basis as payments made directly by the obligor under such Subordinated Debt. To the extent that the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than the respective obligor
or obligors which are already Parties hereto) provides a guaranty or any security in support of any Subordinated Debt, the Party which is the lender of the respective Subordinated Debt will cause each such Person to become a Party hereto (if such
Person is not already a Party hereto) not later than the date of the execution and delivery of the respective guarantee or security documentation, provided that any failure to comply with the foregoing requirements of this Section will
have no effect whatsoever on the subordination provisions contained herein (which shall apply to all payments received with respect to any guarantee or security for any Subordinated Debt, whether or not the Person furnishing such guarantee or
security is a Party hereto). 
 5. Each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that no payments will be accepted by it in respect of the
Subordinated Debt (unless promptly turned over to the holders of Senior Indebtedness as contemplated by Section 2 above) to the extent such payments would be prohibited under any Senior Indebtedness (or the documentation governing the same).

 6. In addition to the foregoing agreements, each Party hereby acknowledges and agrees that, with respect to all Intercompany Debt
(whether or not same constitutes Subordinated Debt), that (subject to the Intercreditor Agreements) (x) such Intercompany Debt (and any promissory notes or other instruments evidencing same) may be pledged, and delivered for pledge, by the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to any Security Document to which the Borrower or the respective such Subsidiary is, or at any time in the future becomes, a party and (y) with respect to all Intercompany Debt so pledged, the
Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise all rights and remedies with respect to such Intercompany Debt to the maximum extent provided in the various Security Documents (in accordance with the terms thereof and subject to the requirements of
applicable law). Furthermore, with respect to all Intercompany Debt at any time owed to any Credit Party, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the terms of such Intercompany Debt, each obligor (including any guarantor) and
obligee with respect to such Intercompany Debt hereby agrees, for the benefit of the holders from time to time of the Senior Indebtedness, that the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may at any time, and from time to time, acting on its
own or at the request of the Required Senior Creditors, accelerate the maturity of such Intercompany Debt if (x) any obligor (including any guarantor) of such Intercompany Debt is subject to any Bankruptcy

  
 G-5 

 
Proceeding or (y) any event of default under the Loan Agreement shall have occurred and be continuing. Any such acceleration of the maturity of any Intercompany Debt shall be made by written
notice by the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent to the obligor on the respective Intercompany Debt; provided that no such notice shall be required (and the acceleration shall automatically occur) either upon the occurrence of a
Bankruptcy Proceeding with respect to the respective obligor (or any guarantor) of the respective Intercompany Debt or upon (or following) any acceleration of the maturity of any Loans pursuant to the Loan Agreement.

CERTIFICATE 
 To the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders 

party to the Loan Agreement referred to below: 

I, the undersigned, the Chief Financial Officer of Lee Enterprises, Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), in
that capacity only and not in my individual capacity, do hereby certify as of the date hereof that: 
 1. This Certificate is furnished to
the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Section 6.13(i) of the Second Lien Loan Agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Loan Agreement”), among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (each,
a “Lender” and, collectively, the “Lenders”), JPMorgan Securities LLC and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as Administrative
Agent. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this solvency certificate (this “Certificate”) shall have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement. 

2. For purposes of this Certificate, the terms below shall have the following definitions: 

 

	 	(a)	“does or do not have Unreasonably Small Capital” 

 For the period from the
date hereof through the stated maturity of all Financing, each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, after the incurrence, issuance or assumption of all Indebtedness
(including the Loans) being incurred, issued or assumed and Liens of such Person or of such group of Persons existing or created, as the case may be, on the Effective Date, has or have sufficient capital with which to conduct its or their respective
businesses. 
  

	 	(b)	“Fair Value” 

 The amount at which the assets (both tangible and intangible),
in their entirety, of each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, within a commercially reasonable
period of time, each having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts, with neither being under any compulsion to act. 
  

	 	(c)	“Identified Contingent Liabilities” 

  

  
 H-1 

 
The maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result from pending litigation, asserted claims and assessments, guaranties, uninsured risks and other contingent liabilities
(other than such contingent liabilities included within the term “Stated Liabilities”) of each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, after giving effect to
the transactions consummated on the Effective Date (including all fees and expenses related thereto but exclusive of such contingent liabilities to the extent reflected in Stated Liabilities), as identified and explained in terms of their nature and
estimated magnitude by responsible officers of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or that have been identified as such by an officer of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, determined in accordance with GAAP. 

 

	 	(d)	“Financing” 

 All Indebtedness incurred or to be incurred by the Borrower and
its Subsidiaries under the Credit Documents, the First Lien Credit Documents (assuming the full utilization by the Borrower of the Commitments under (and as defined in) the First Lien Credit Agreement), the First Lien Notes Documents and the
Pulitzer Debt Documents, as applicable. 
  

	 	(e)	“Present Fair Salable Value” 

 The amount that could be obtained by an
independent willing seller from an independent willing buyer if the assets of each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, are sold with reasonable promptness in an
arm’s-length transaction under present conditions for the sale of comparable business enterprises. 
  

	 	(f)	“Stated Liabilities” 

 The recorded liabilities (including contingent
liabilities that would be recorded in accordance with GAAP) of each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, as of the date hereof
after giving effect to the transactions consummated on the Effective Date, determined in accordance with GAAP consistently applied, together with the amount of the Financing. 
  

	 	(g)	“will be able to pay its or their respective Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable” 

For the period from the date hereof through the stated maturity of all Financing, each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, will have sufficient assets and cash flow to pay its or their respective Stated 

  
 H-2 

 
Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as those liabilities mature or otherwise become payable. 

3. For purposes of this Certificate, I, or officers of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries under my direction and supervision, have performed
the following procedures as of and for the periods set forth below. 
  

	 	(a)	Reviewed the financial statements (including the pro forma financial statements) referred to in Section 8.05 of the Loan Agreement. 

 

	 	(b)	Made inquiries of certain officials of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial and accounting matters regarding (i) the existence and amount of Identified Contingent Liabilities
associated with the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries and (ii) whether the financial statements referred to in paragraph (a) above are in conformity with GAAP applied on a basis consistent with that of the Borrower’s
audited financial statements for the Borrower’s fiscal year ended September 29, 2013. 

  

	 	(c)	Reviewed to my satisfaction the Credit Documents, the First Lien Credit Documents, the First Lien Notes Documents and the Pulitzer Debt Documents and the respective Schedules, Annexes and Exhibits thereto.

  

	 	(d)	With respect to Identified Contingent Liabilities: 

  

	 	1.	inquired of certain officials of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for legal, financial and accounting matters as to the existence and estimated liability with respect to all contingent
liabilities associated with the business of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries; 

  

	 	2.	confirmed with officers of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries that, to the best of such officers’ knowledge, (i) all appropriate items were included in Stated Liabilities or Identified Contingent Liabilities
and that (ii) the amounts relating thereto were the maximum estimated amount of liabilities reasonably likely to result therefrom as of the date hereof; and 

  

	 	3.	to the best of my knowledge, in making the certification set forth in paragraph 4 below, considered all material Identified Contingent Liabilities that may arise from any pending litigation, asserted claims and
assessments, guarantees, uninsured risks and other Identified Contingent Liabilities of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (exclusive of such Identified Contingent Liabilities to the extent reflected in Stated Liabilities) and with respect to each
such Identified Contingent Liability the estimable maximum amount of liability with respect thereto was used in making such certification. 

  
 H-3 

	 	(e)	Made inquiries of certain officers of the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries who have responsibility for financial reporting and accounting matters regarding whether they were aware of any events or conditions that, as of
the date hereof, would cause either Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) or the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, after giving effect to the consummation of the financing transactions (including the incurrence of the
Financing), to (i) have assets with a Fair Value or Present Fair Salable Value that are less than the sum of its or their Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) have Unreasonably Small Capital; or (iii) not be
able to pay its or their respective Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable. 

  

	 	(f)	Had the Projections relating to the Borrower and/or its Subsidiaries which have been previously delivered to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, prepared under my direction based on good faith estimates and
assumptions, and have re-examined the Projections on the date hereof and considered the effect thereon of any changes since the date of the preparation thereof on the results projected therein. After such review, I hereby certify that in my opinion
the Projections are (and remain) reasonable and attainable (it being recognized by the Lenders that such projections of future events are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections
may differ from the projected results contained therein) and the Projections support the conclusions contained in paragraph 4 below. 

4. Based on and subject to the foregoing, I hereby certify on behalf of the Borrower that, on and as of the date hereof and after giving
effect to the consummation of the financing transactions (including the incurrence of the Financing), it is my opinion that (i) the Fair Value and Present Fair Salable Value of the assets of each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the
Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, exceed its or their respective Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities; (ii) each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its
Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, do not have Unreasonably Small Capital; and (iii) each of the Borrower (on a stand-alone basis) and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), as the case may be, intends to and
believes that it will be able to pay its or their respective Stated Liabilities and Identified Contingent Liabilities as they mature or otherwise become payable. 

5. The Borrower does not intend, in consummating the transactions contemplated by the Financing, to delay, hinder, or defraud either present
or future creditors. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned has set his hand this [    ] day of
[            ].

have the effect of requiring) any of the actions described in clauses (y)(i) and (y)(ii) above, including the payment or other transfer of Pulitzer Collateral to the Collateral Agent, shall be deemed to have been satisfied (or, in the case of any
representation and warranty, shall be deemed to be true) if such action has otherwise been taken with respect to the Pulitzer Collateral for the benefit of the First Priority Representative as noted above in clauses (y)(i) and (y)(ii), and
(z) the requirement of this Agreement to endorse, assign or deliver to the Collateral Agent, or to otherwise provide the Collateral Agent “control” (within the meaning of the UCC) over, any Investment Property of an Assignor, shall

this Agreement, all filings, registrations, recordings and other actions reasonably necessary or appropriate to create, preserve and perfect the security interest granted by such Assignor to the Collateral Agent hereby in respect of the Collateral
have been accomplished and the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement in and to the Collateral creates a valid and, together with all such filings, registrations, recordings and other actions, a perfected
security interest therein prior to the rights of all other Persons (other than the collateral agents under the Pari Passu Credit Facility and in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and, after the Pulitzer Debt Satisfaction Date, the First

referenced in Section 9-311(a) of the UCC to perfect the security interests granted herein in any Collateral where the filing of a financing statement does not perfect the security interest in such property in accordance with the provisions of

Assignor does not own, or expect to acquire, any property which constitutes, or would constitute, As-Extracted Collateral or Timber-to-be-Cut. If at any time after the date of this Agreement such Assignor owns, acquires or obtains rights to any
As-Extracted Collateral or Timber-to-be-Cut, such Assignor shall furnish the Collateral Agent with prompt written notice thereof (which notice shall describe in reasonable detail the As-Extracted Collateral and/or Timber-to-be-Cut and the locations

best efforts to promptly obtain an acknowledgment from such bailee that the bailee holds such Collateral for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and shall act upon the instructions of the Collateral Agent, without the further consent of such
Assignor. The Collateral Agent agrees with such Assignor that the Collateral Agent shall not give any such instructions unless an Event of Default has

CONCERNING ACCOUNTS; CONTRACT RIGHTS; 
 INSTRUMENTS; CHATTEL PAPER AND CERTAIN OTHER COLLATERAL

be deemed to have represented and warranted that each such Account, and all records, papers and documents relating thereto (if any) are genuine and what they purport to be, and that all papers and documents (if any) relating thereto (i) will,
to the knowledge of such Assignor, evidence indebtedness unpaid and owed by the respective account debtor arising out of the performance of labor or services or the sale or lease and delivery of the merchandise listed therein, or both,
(ii) will be the only original writings evidencing and embodying such obligation of the account debtor named therein (other than copies created for general accounting purposes), (iii) will, to the knowledge of such Assignor, evidence true,
binding and valid obligations, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
generally affecting 

  
 9 

 
creditors’ rights and by equitable principles (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in equity or at law)), and (iv) will be in compliance and will conform in all material
respects with all applicable federal, state and local laws and applicable laws of any relevant foreign jurisdiction. 

Section 3.2 Maintenance of Records. Each Assignor will keep and maintain at its own cost and expense, in all material
respects, accurate records of its Accounts and Contracts pursuant to its historical customs and practices, including, but not limited to, originals of all documentation (including each Contract) with respect thereto, records of all payments
received, all credits granted thereon, all merchandise returned and all other dealings therewith, and such Assignor will make the same available on any premise of any Assignor to the Collateral Agent for inspection, at such Assignor’s own cost
and expense, at any and all reasonable times upon prior notice to such Assignor and otherwise in accordance with the Indenture. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at the request of the Collateral Agent, such
Assignor shall, at its own cost and expense, deliver all tangible evidence of its Accounts and Contract Rights (including, without limitation, all documents evidencing the Accounts and all Contracts) and such books and records to the Collateral
Agent or to its representatives (copies of which evidence and books and records may be retained by such Assignor). Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and if the Collateral Agent so directs, such Assignor shall
legend the Accounts and the Contracts, as well as books, records and documents (if any) of such Assignor evidencing or pertaining to such Accounts and Contracts with an appropriate reference to the fact that such Accounts and Contracts have been
assigned to the Collateral Agent and that the Collateral Agent has a security interest therein. 
 Section 3.3 Direction to
Account Debtors; Contracting Parties; etc. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, and subject to the provisions of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, if the Collateral Agent so directs any Assignor, such
Assignor agrees (x) to cause all payments on account of the Accounts and Contracts to be made directly to the Cash Collateral Account, (y) that the Collateral Agent may, at its option, directly notify the obligors with respect to any
Accounts and/or under any Contracts to make payments with respect thereto as provided in the preceding clause (x), and (z) that the Collateral Agent may enforce collection of any such Accounts and Contracts and may adjust, settle or compromise
the amount of payment thereof, in the same manner and to the same extent as such Assignor. Without notice to or assent by any Assignor, the Collateral Agent may, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and subject to
the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, apply any or all amounts then in, or thereafter deposited in, the Cash Collateral Account toward the payment of the Obligations in the manner provided in Section 8.4 of this Agreement. The reasonable
costs and expenses of collection (including reasonable attorneys’ fees), whether incurred by an Assignor or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by the relevant Assignor. The Collateral Agent is hereby instructed to deliver a copy of each
notice referred to in the preceding clause (y) to the relevant Assignor, provided that (x) the failure by the Collateral Agent to so notify such Assignor shall not affect the effectiveness of such notice or the other rights of the
Collateral Agent created by this Section 3.3 and (y) no such notice shall be required if an Event of Default of the type described in Section 6.1(a)(vi) or (vii) of the Indenture has occurred and is continuing. 

  
 10

Assignor’s ordinary course of business and consistent with reasonable business judgment, (y) to the extent agreed to by the collateral agents under the Pari Passu Credit Facility and in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, in each
case to the extent then extant, or (z) as permitted by Section 3.5, no Assignor shall rescind or cancel any indebtedness evidenced by any Account or under any Contract, or modify any material term thereof or make any material adjustment
with respect thereto, or extend or renew the same, or compromise or settle any material dispute, claim, suit or legal proceeding relating thereto, or sell any Account or Contract, or interest therein, without the prior written consent of the
Collateral Agent at the direction of the Required Secured Creditors. 
 Section 3.5 Collection. Each Assignor shall
endeavor in accordance with reasonable business practices to cause to be collected from the account debtor named in each of its Accounts or obligor under any Contract, as and when due (including, without limitation, amounts which are delinquent,
such amounts to be collected in accordance with generally accepted lawful collection procedures) any and all amounts owing under or on account of such Account or Contract, and apply forthwith upon receipt thereof all such amounts as are so collected
to the outstanding balance of such Account or under such Contract. Except as otherwise directed by the Collateral Agent after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default and subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements,
any Assignor may allow in the ordinary course of business as adjustments to amounts owing under its Accounts and Contracts (i) an extension or renewal of the time or times of payment, or settlement for less than the total unpaid balance, which
such Assignor finds appropriate in accordance with reasonable business judgment and (ii) a refund or credit due as a result of returned or damaged merchandise or improperly performed services or for other reasons which such Assignor finds
appropriate in accordance with reasonable business judgment. The reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) of collection, whether incurred by an Assignor or the Collateral Agent, shall be borne by
the relevant Assignor. 
 Section 3.6 Instruments. If any Assignor owns or acquires any Instrument in excess of $500,000
constituting Collateral (other than (x) checks and other payment instruments received and collected in the ordinary course of business and (y) any Note), such Assignor will within 10 Business Days notify the Collateral Agent in writing
thereof, and to the extent required by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, will promptly deliver such Instrument to the Collateral Agent appropriately endorsed to the order of the Collateral Agent.

remain liable under each of the Accounts to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by it thereunder, all in accordance with the terms of any agreement giving rise to such Accounts. Neither the
Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto) by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured
Creditor of any payment relating to such Account pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Assignor under or pursuant to any Account (or any
agreement giving rise thereto), to make any payment, to make any inquiry as to the nature or the sufficiency of any payment received by them or as to the 

  
 11 

 
sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Account (or any agreement giving rise thereto), to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the
payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to them or to which they may be entitled at any time or times. 

Section 3.8 Assignors Remain Liable Under Contracts. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Assignors shall
remain liable under each of the Contracts to observe and perform all of the conditions and obligations to be observed and performed by them thereunder, all in accordance with and pursuant to the terms and provisions of each Contract. Neither the
Collateral Agent nor any other Secured Creditor shall have any obligation or liability under any Contract by reason of or arising out of this Agreement or the receipt by the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor of any payment relating to
such Contract pursuant hereto, nor shall the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Creditor be obligated in any manner to perform any of the obligations of any Assignor under or pursuant to any Contract, to make any payment, to make any inquiry as
to the nature or the sufficiency of any performance by any party under any Contract, to present or file any claim, to take any action to enforce any performance or to collect the payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to them or to
which they may be entitled at any time or times. 
 Section 3.9 Deposit Accounts; Etc. (a) No Assignor maintains, or
at any time after the date of this Agreement shall establish or maintain, any demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for such accounts maintained with a bank (as defined in Section 9-102 of the UCC) whose jurisdiction
(determined in accordance with Section 9-304 of the UCC) is within a State of the United States. Annex F hereto accurately sets forth, as of the date of this Agreement, for each Assignor, each Deposit Account maintained by such Assignor
(including a description thereof and the respective account number), the name and address of the respective bank with which such Deposit Account is maintained, and the jurisdiction of the respective bank with respect to such Deposit Account, and
indicates whether such Deposit Account constitutes an Excluded Account. For each Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account),
the respective Assignor shall cause the bank with which the Deposit Account is maintained to execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent (or to the Person contemplated by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements), within 90 days of this Agreement (or
such later date as may be agreed to by such Person contemplated by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements) or, if later, at the time of the establishment of the respective Deposit Account, a “control agreement” in such form as may be
reasonably acceptable to the Collateral Agent. If any bank with which a Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account) is
maintained refuses to, or does not, enter into such a “control agreement”, then the respective Assignor shall promptly (and in any event within 90 days thereafter) close the respective Deposit Account and transfer all balances therein to
the Cash Collateral Account or another Deposit Account meeting the requirements of this Section 3.9. If any bank with which a Deposit Account (other than (i) the Cash Collateral Account or any other Deposit Account maintained with the
Collateral Agent and (ii) any Excluded Account) is maintained refuses to subordinate all its claims with respect to such Deposit Account to the Collateral Agent’s security interest therein on terms consistent with market practice, then
(x) such Deposit Account shall be terminated in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence or (y) a “control agreement” may be entered into without such 

  
 12 

 
subordination to the extent agreed to by the collateral agents under the Pari Passu Credit Facility and in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility, in each case to the extent then extant. The
Collateral Agent agrees that it will only give a “Notice of Exclusive Control” under a “control agreement” following the occurrence of an Event of Default. 

(b) After the date of this Agreement, no Assignor shall establish any new demand, time, savings, passbook or similar account, except for
(i) Deposit Accounts established and maintained with banks and meeting the requirements of preceding clause (a) and (ii) Excluded Accounts. At the time any such Deposit Account (other than an Excluded Account) is established, the
appropriate “control agreement” shall be entered into in accordance with the requirements of preceding clause (a) and the respective Assignor shall furnish to the Collateral Agent a supplement to Annex F hereto containing the relevant
information with respect to the respective Deposit Account and the bank with which same is established. 

Section 3.10 Letter-of-Credit Rights. If any Assignor is at any time a beneficiary under a letter of credit with a stated
amount of $500,000 or more, such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, at the request of the Collateral Agent, such Assignor shall, pursuant to an agreement, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) arrange for the
issuer and any confirmer of such letter of credit to consent to an assignment to the Collateral Agent of the proceeds of any drawing under such letter of credit or (ii) arrange for the Collateral Agent to become the transferee beneficiary of
such letter of credit, with the Collateral Agent agreeing, in each case, that the proceeds of any drawing under the letter of credit are to be applied as provided in this Agreement after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default. 
 Section 3.11 Commercial Tort Claims. All Commercial Tort Claims of each Assignor in existence on the date of
this Agreement in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $500,000 or more are described in Annex G hereto. If any Assignor shall at any time after the date of this
Agreement acquire a Commercial Tort Claim in an amount (taking the greater of the aggregate claimed damages thereunder or the reasonably estimated value thereof) of $500,000 or more, such Assignor shall promptly notify the Collateral Agent thereof
in a writing signed by such Assignor and describing the details thereof and shall grant to the Collateral Agent in such writing a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Agreement. 

Section 3.12 Chattel Paper. Upon the request of the Collateral Agent made at any time or from time to time, each Assignor
shall promptly furnish to the Collateral Agent a list of all Electronic Chattel Paper held or owned by such Assignor. Furthermore, to the extent required by the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor shall promptly take all actions which
are reasonably practicable so that the Collateral Agent has “control” of all Electronic Chattel Paper in accordance with the requirements of Section 9-105 of the UCC. Each Assignor will promptly (and in any event within 10 days (or
such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion)) following any request by the Collateral Agent and subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, deliver any of its Tangible Chattel Paper so requested by the Collateral
Agent to the Collateral Agent. At all times, each Assignor will mark Tangible Chattel Paper with a legend indicating the security interest herein. 

  
 13 

 Section 3.13 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, make,
execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time such vouchers, invoices, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, certificates, reports and other assurances or
instruments and take such further steps, including any and all actions as may be necessary or required under the Federal Assignment of Claims Act, relating to its Accounts, Contracts, Instruments and other property or rights covered by the security
interest hereby granted, as the Collateral Agent may reasonably require.

INTERESTS AND PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS 

Section 4.1 Subsequently Acquired Collateral. For any Pledged Collateral subsequently acquired by any Assignor, such Assignor
will take (or cause to be taken) all action (as promptly as practicable and, in any event, within 10 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after it obtains such Pledged Collateral) with respect to such Pledged
Collateral in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 1.1(b) hereof, and will promptly thereafter deliver to the Assignee (i) a certificate executed by an authorized officer of such Assignor describing such Pledged Collateral
and certifying that the same has been duly pledged in favor of the Assignee (for the benefit of the Secured Creditors) hereunder and (ii) supplements to Annexes N - Q hereto as are necessary to cause such Annexes to be complete and accurate at
such time. 
 Section 4.2 Transfer Taxes. Each grant of security interest of Pledged Collateral under Section 1.1
hereof shall be accompanied by any transfer tax stamps required by applicable law in connection with the pledge of such Pledged Collateral. 

Section 4.3 Appointment of Sub-Agents; Endorsements, etc. Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, the Assignee
shall have the right to appoint one or more sub-agents for the purpose of retaining physical possession of the Pledged Collateral, which may be held in the name of the relevant Assignor, endorsed or assigned in blank or in favor of the Assignee or
any nominee or nominees of the Assignee or a sub-agent appointed by the Assignee. 
 Section 4.4 Voting, etc., While No Event
of Default. Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default and the Assignee shall instruct the Assignors otherwise (in writing), each Assignor shall be
entitled to exercise any and all voting and other consensual rights pertaining to the Pledged Collateral owned by it, and to give consents, waivers or ratifications in respect thereof; provided that, in each case, no vote shall be cast or any
consent, waiver or ratification given or any action taken or omitted to be taken which would violate, result in a breach of any covenant contained in, or be inconsistent with any of the terms of any Notes Document, or which could reasonably be
expected to have the effect of impairing the value of the Pledged Collateral or any part thereof or the position or interests of the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor in the Pledged Collateral, unless expressly permitted by the terms of the
Notes Documents. All such rights of each Assignor to vote and to give consents, waivers and ratifications shall cease in case 

  
 14 

 
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Assignee has notified the Assignors (in writing) that such rights have ceased, and Article VIII hereof shall become applicable. 

Section 4.5 Dividends and Other Distributions. Unless and until there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of
Default, all cash dividends, cash distributions, cash Proceeds and other cash amounts payable in respect of the Pledged Collateral shall be paid to the respective Assignor. The Assignee shall be entitled to receive directly, and to retain as part of
the Pledged Collateral:

(ii) all other or additional stock, notes, certificates, limited liability company interests, partnership interests,
instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash (although such cash may be paid directly to the respective Assignor so long as no Event of Default then exists) paid or distributed in respect of the Pledged Collateral

 (iii)
all other or additional stock, notes, certificates, limited liability company interests, partnership interests, instruments or other securities or property (including, but not limited to, cash) which may be paid in respect of the Pledged Collateral
by reason of any consolidation, merger, exchange of stock, conveyance of assets, liquidation or similar corporate or other reorganization. 
 Nothing
contained in this Section 4.5 shall limit or restrict in any way the Assignee’s right to receive the proceeds of the Collateral in any form in accordance with this Agreement. All dividends, distributions or other payments which are
received by any Assignor contrary to the provisions of this Section 4.5 or Article VIII hereof shall be received in trust for the benefit of the Assignee, shall be segregated from other property or funds of such Assignor and shall be forthwith
paid over to the Assignee as Collateral in the same form as so received (with any necessary endorsement). 

Section 4.6 Assignee Not a Partner or Limited Liability Company Member. (a) Nothing herein shall be construed to make
the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor liable as a member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership and neither the Assignee nor any other Secured Creditor by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to
in the following sentence) shall have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any limited liability company or as a partner in any partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Assignee shall become the
absolute owner of Pledged Collateral consisting of a Limited Liability Company Interest or a Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Assignee, any other Secured
Creditor, any Assignor and/or any other Person. 

  
 15 

 (b) Except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 4.6, the
Assignee, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any limited liability company or a partner of any partnership or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to any Assignor, any limited liability company,
partnership and/or any other Person either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. The Assignee shall have only those powers set forth herein and the Secured Creditors shall assume none of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a
member of any limited liability company or as a partner of any partnership or any Assignor except as provided in the last sentence of paragraph (a) of this Section 4.6. 

(c) The Assignee and the other Secured Creditors shall not be obligated to perform or discharge any obligation of any Assignor as a result of
the security interest in the Pledged Stock hereby effected. 
 (d) The acceptance by the Assignee of this Agreement, with all the rights,
powers, privileges and authority so created, shall not at any time or in any event obligate the Assignee or any other Secured Creditor to appear in or defend any action or proceeding relating to the Pledged Collateral to which it is not a party, or
to take any action hereunder or thereunder, or to expend any money or incur any expenses or perform or discharge any obligation, duty or liability under the Pledged Collateral. 

Section 4.7 The Assignee As Collateral Agent. The Assignee will hold in accordance with this Agreement all items of the
Pledged Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood, acknowledged and agreed by each Secured Creditor that by accepting the benefits of this Agreement each such Secured Creditor acknowledges and agrees that the
obligations of the Assignee as holder of the Pledged Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the Indenture. The
Assignee shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Indenture. 
 Section 4.8 Transfer By The
Assignors. Except as permitted by the Notes Documents, no Assignor will sell or otherwise dispose of, grant any option with respect to, or mortgage, pledge or otherwise encumber any of the Pledged Collateral or any interest therein. 

Section 4.9 Sale Of Pledged Collateral Without Registration. (a) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing and any Assignor shall have received from the Assignee a written request or requests that such Assignor cause any registration, qualification or compliance under any federal or state securities law or laws to be effected with respect to
all or any part of the Pledged Collateral, such Assignor as soon as practicable and at its expense will use its best efforts to cause such registration to be effected (and be kept effective) and will use its best efforts to cause such qualification
and compliance to be effected (and be kept effective) as may be so requested and as would permit or facilitate the sale and distribution of such Pledged Collateral, including, without limitation, registration under the Securities Act, as then in
effect (or any similar statute then in effect), appropriate qualifications under applicable blue sky or other state securities laws and appropriate compliance with any other governmental requirements; provided, that the Assignee shall furnish to
such Assignor such information regarding the Assignee as such Assignor may reasonably request in writing and as shall be 

  
 16 

 
required in connection with any such registration, qualification or compliance. Each Assignor will cause the Assignee to be kept reasonably advised in writing as to the progress of each such
registration, qualification or compliance and as to the completion thereof, will furnish to the Assignee such number of prospectuses, offering circulars and other documents incident thereto as the Assignee from time to time may reasonably request,
and will indemnify, to the extent permitted by law, the Assignee and all other Secured Creditors participating in the distribution of such Pledged Collateral against all claims, losses, damages and liabilities caused by any untrue statement (or
alleged untrue statement) of a material fact contained therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or the like) or by any omission (or alleged omission) to state therein (or in any related registration statement, notification or
the like) a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same may have been caused by an untrue statement or omission based upon information furnished in writing to
such Assignor by the Assignee or such other Secured Creditor expressly for use therein. 
 (b) If at any time when the Assignee shall
determine to exercise its right to sell all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to Article VIII hereof, and such Pledged Collateral or the part thereof to be sold shall not, for any reason whatsoever, be effectively registered under the
Securities Act, as then in effect, the Assignee may sell such Pledged Collateral or part thereof by private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Assignee may deem necessary or advisable in order that such sale may legally be
effected without such registration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in any such event the Assignee (i) may proceed to make such private sale notwithstanding that a registration statement for the purpose of registering such
Pledged Collateral or part thereof shall have been filed under such Securities Act, (ii) may approach and negotiate with a single possible purchaser to effect such sale, and (iii) may restrict such sale to a purchaser who will represent
and agree that such purchaser is purchasing for its own account, for investment, and not with a view to the distribution or sale of such Pledged Collateral or part thereof. In the event of any such sale, the Assignee shall incur no responsibility or
liability for selling all or any part of the Pledged Collateral at a price which the Assignee may deem reasonable under the circumstances, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might be realized if the sale were deferred
until the registration as aforesaid.

Marks and material Domain Names 

  
 17 

 
that it uses. Each Assignor further warrants that it has received no third party claim that any aspect of such Assignor’s present or contemplated business operations infringes or will
infringe any Mark of any other Person, and has no knowledge of any threat of any such claim (including “cease and desist” letters), in each case, other than as could not, either individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to
have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Assignor represents and warrants that (i) the United States registered Marks listed in Annex H hereto are valid, subsisting, have not been canceled and that such Assignor is not aware of any third-party
claim that any of said registrations is invalid or unenforceable, and is not aware that there is any reason that any of said applications for United States Marks will not mature into registrations, except to the extent the same, either individually

Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any document which may be required
by the United States Patent and Trademark Office, domain name registrar or similar registrar in order to effect an absolute assignment of all right, title and interest in each Mark and/or Domain Name, and record the same.

or diluting or otherwise violating any of such Assignor’s rights in and to any Mark or Domain Name in any manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, or with respect to any party claiming that such
Assignor’s use of any Mark or Domain Name material to such Assignor’s business violates in any material respect any property right of that party. Each Assignor further agrees to prosecute diligently in accordance with reasonable business
practices any Person infringing any Mark or Domain Name in any manner that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 

Section 5.4 Preservation of Marks. Each Assignor agrees to take all such actions as are reasonably necessary to preserve its
Marks as trademarks or service marks under the laws of the United States (other than any such Marks which are no longer used or useful in its business or operations and except as otherwise permitted by the Indenture).

 18 

 
shall pay all fees and disbursements in connection therewith and shall not abandon any such filing of affidavit of use or any such application of renewal prior to the exhaustion of all
administrative and judicial remedies (other than with respect to registrations and applications deemed by such Assignor in its reasonable business judgment to be no longer prudent to pursue). 

Section 5.6 Future Registered Marks and Domain Names. If any Mark registration is issued hereafter to any Assignor as a
result of any application now or hereafter pending before the United States Patent and Trademark Office or any Domain Name is registered by Assignor, within 45 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) of receipt
of such certificate or similar indicia of ownership, such Assignor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a copy of such registration certificate or similar indicia of ownership, and a grant of a security interest in such Mark and/or Domain Name, to
the Collateral Agent and at the expense of such Assignor, confirming the grant of a security interest in such Mark and/or Domain Name to the Collateral Agent hereunder, the form of such security to be substantially in the form of Annex K hereto.

applicable Intercreditor Agreements and the Indenture, by written notice to the relevant Assignor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) declare the entire right, title and interest of such Assignor in and to each of the Marks and
Domain Names, together with all rights and rights of protection to the same, vested in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, in which event such rights, title and interest shall immediately vest, in the Collateral Agent for
the benefit of the Secured Creditors, and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in Section 1.3 hereof to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and record said absolute assignment with the

Subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements, each Assignor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent an absolute power of attorney to sign, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any document which may be required

individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Assignor further agrees, absent direction of the Collateral Agent to the contrary, to diligently prosecute, in accordance with its reasonable
business judgment, any Person infringing any Patent or Copyright or any Person misappropriating any Trade Secret Right, in each case to the extent that such infringement or misappropriation, either individually or in the aggregate, could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. 
 Section 6.4 Maintenance of Patents or Copyrights. At its own expense,
each Assignor shall make timely payment of all fees required to prosecute and maintain in force its rights under each Patent or Copyright material to the operation of its business, absent prior written consent of the Collateral Agent (other than

a security interest as to such Patent or Copyright, as the case may be, to the Collateral Agent and at the expense of such Assignor, confirming the grant of a security interest, the form of such grant of a security interest to be substantially in
the form of Annex L or M hereto, as appropriate or in such other customary or necessary form to properly perfect such security interest.

 Section 7.1 Protection of Collateral Agent’s Security. Except as otherwise permitted by
the Notes Documents, each Assignor will do nothing to impair, in any material respect, the rights of the Collateral Agent in the Collateral. Each Assignor will at all times maintain insurance, at such Assignor’s own expense to the extent and in
the manner provided in the Notes Documents. Except to the extent otherwise permitted to be retained by such Assignor or applied by such Assignor pursuant to the terms of the Notes Documents, the Collateral Agent shall, at the time any proceeds of
such insurance are distributed to the Secured Creditors, apply such proceeds in accordance with Section 8.4 hereof. Each Assignor assumes all liability and responsibility in connection with the Collateral acquired by it and the liability of
such Assignor 

  
 21 

 
to pay the Obligations shall in no way be affected or diminished by reason of the fact that such Collateral may be lost, destroyed, stolen, damaged or for any reason whatsoever unavailable to
such Assignor. 
 Section 7.2 Warehouse Receipts Non-Negotiable. To the extent practicable, each Assignor agrees that if
any warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature of a warehouse receipt is issued with respect to any of its Inventory, such Assignor shall request that such warehouse receipt or receipt in the nature thereof shall not be “negotiable” (as
such term is used in Section 7-104 of the UCC as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction or under other relevant law). 

Section 7.3 Additional Information. Each Assignor will, at its own expense, from time to time upon the reasonable request of
the Collateral Agent, promptly (and in any event within 10 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such information with respect to
the Collateral (including the identity of the Collateral or such components thereof as may have been requested by the Collateral Agent, and the estimated value and location of such Collateral). Without limiting the foregoing, each Assignor agrees
that it shall promptly (and in any event within 20 days (or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its discretion) after its receipt of the respective request) furnish to the Collateral Agent such updated Annexes hereto as may from
time to time be reasonably requested by the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 7.4 Further Actions. Each Assignor will, at its

REMEDIES UPON OCCURRENCE OF AN EVENT OF DEFAULT 

Section 8.1 Remedies; Obtaining the Collateral Upon Default. Subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements
and the Indenture, each Assignor agrees that, if any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then and in every such case, the Collateral Agent, in addition to any rights now or hereafter existing under applicable law and under the
other provisions of this Agreement, shall have all rights as a secured creditor under any UCC, and such additional rights and remedies to which a secured creditor is entitled under the laws in effect in all relevant jurisdictions and may: 

(i) personally, or by agents or attorneys, immediately take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, from such
Assignor or any other Person who then has possession of any part thereof with or without notice or process of law, and for that purpose may enter upon such Assignor’s premises where any of the Collateral is located and remove the same and use
in connection with such removal any and all services, supplies, aids and other facilities of such Assignor; 
 (ii) instruct
the obligor or obligors on any agreement, instrument or other obligation (including, without limitation, the Accounts and the Contracts) constituting the Collateral to make any payment required by the terms of such agreement, instrument or other
obligation directly to the Collateral Agent and may exercise any and all remedies of such Assignor in respect of such Collateral; 

(iii) instruct all banks which have entered into a control agreement with the Collateral Agent to transfer all monies,
securities and instruments held by such depositary bank to the Cash Collateral Account; 
 (iv) sell, assign or otherwise
liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof in accordance with Section 8.2 hereof, or direct such Assignor to sell, assign or otherwise liquidate any or all of the Collateral or any part thereof, and, in each case, take
possession of the proceeds of any such sale or liquidation; 
 (v) take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by
directing such Assignor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any reasonable place or places designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Assignor shall at its own expense: 

(x) forthwith cause the same to be moved to the place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent and there delivered to
the Collateral Agent; 
 (y) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places
pending further action by the Collateral Agent as provided in Section 9.2 hereof; and 

  
 23 

 (z) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and
maintenance services as shall be reasonably necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain it in good condition; 

(vi) license or sublicense, whether on an exclusive or nonexclusive basis, any Intellectual Property included in the Collateral
for such term and on such conditions and in such manner as the Collateral Agent shall in its sole judgment determine; 

(vii) apply any monies constituting Collateral or proceeds thereof in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.4; 

(viii) accelerate any Note which may be accelerated in accordance with its terms, and take any other lawful action to collect
upon any Note (including, without limitation, to make any demand for payment thereon); 
 (ix) transfer all or any part of
the Collateral into the Collateral Agent’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees; 
 (x) vote (and exercise all
rights and powers in respect of voting) all or any part of the Collateral (whether or not transferred into the name of the Collateral Agent) and give all consents, waivers and ratifications in respect of the Collateral and otherwise act with respect
thereto as though it were the outright owner thereof (each Assignor hereby irrevocably constituting and appointing the Collateral Agent the proxy and attorney-in-fact of such Assignor, with full power of substation to do so); and 

(xi) take any other action as specified in clauses (1) through (5), inclusive, of Section 9-607 of the UCC; 

it being understood that each Assignor’s obligation so to deliver the Collateral is of the essence of this Agreement and that, accordingly, upon
application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by such Assignor of said obligation. By accepting the benefits of this Agreement and each other Collateral
Document, the Secured Creditors expressly acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and each other Collateral Document may be enforced only by the action of the Collateral Agent and that no other Secured Creditor shall have any right individually to
seek to enforce or to enforce this Agreement or to realize upon the security to be granted hereby, it being understood and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Creditors upon
the terms of this Agreement and the other Collateral Documents and the Indenture. 
 Section 8.2 Remedies; Disposition of the
Collateral. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, then any Collateral repossessed by the Collateral Agent under or pursuant to Section 8.1 hereof and any other Collateral whether or not so repossessed by the
Collateral Agent, may be sold, assigned, leased or otherwise disposed of under one or more contracts or as an entirety, and without the necessity of gathering at the place of sale the property to be sold, and in general in such manner, at such time
or times, at such place or places and on such terms as the Collateral Agent may, in compliance with any mandatory requirements of applicable law, determine to be commercially reasonable. Any of the Collateral may be sold, 

  
 24 

 
leased or otherwise disposed of, in the condition in which the same existed when taken by the Collateral Agent or after any overhaul or repair at the expense of the relevant Assignor which the
Collateral Agent shall determine to be commercially reasonable. Any such sale, lease or other disposition may be effected by means of a public disposition or private disposition, effected in accordance with the applicable requirements (in each case
if and to the extent applicable) of Sections 9-610 through 9-613 of the UCC and/or such other mandatory requirements of applicable law as may apply to the respective disposition. The Collateral Agent may, without notice or publication, adjourn any
public or private disposition or cause the same to be adjourned from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for the disposition, and such disposition may be made at any time or place to which the disposition may be so adjourned. To
the extent permitted by any such requirement of law, the Collateral Agent may bid for and become the purchaser (and may pay all or any portion of the purchase price by crediting Obligations against the purchase price) of the Collateral or any item
thereof, offered for disposition in accordance with this Section 8.2 without accountability to the relevant Assignor. If, under applicable law, the Collateral Agent shall be permitted to make disposition of the Collateral within a period of
time which does not permit the giving of notice to the relevant Assignor as hereinabove specified, the Collateral Agent need give such Assignor only such notice of disposition as shall be required by such applicable law. Each Assignor agrees to do
or cause to be done all such other acts and things as may be reasonably necessary to make such disposition or dispositions of all or any portion of the Collateral valid and binding and in compliance with any and all applicable laws, regulations,
orders, writs, injunctions, decrees or awards of any and all courts, arbitrators or governmental instrumentalities, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over any such sale or sales, all at such Assignor’s expense. 

Section 8.3 Waiver of Claims. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE EXTENT
PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, NOTICE AND JUDICIAL HEARING IN CONNECTION WITH THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S TAKING POSSESSION OR THE COLLATERAL AGENT’S DISPOSITION OF ANY OF THE COLLATERAL, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY AND ALL PRIOR NOTICE
AND HEARING FOR ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY OR REMEDIES, and each Assignor hereby further waives, to the extent permitted by law: 

(i) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession or any such disposition except any damages which are the direct result
of the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision); 

(ii) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of
the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder; and 
 (iii) all rights of redemption, appraisement, valuation, stay, extension
or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable law in order to prevent or delay the enforcement of this Agreement or the absolute sale of the Collateral or any portion thereof, and each Assignor, for itself and all who may claim under
it, insofar as it or they now or hereafter lawfully may, hereby waives the benefit of all such laws. 

  
 25 

 Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to
divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the relevant Assignor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Assignor and against any and all Persons claiming or
attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through and under such Assignor. 

Section 8.4 Application of Proceeds. (a) Subject to the terms of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements and the
Indenture, all monies collected by the Collateral Agent (or, to the extent any Mortgage or any other Collateral Document requires proceeds of collateral under such other Collateral Document to be applied in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, the Collateral Agent or other agent under such other Collateral Document) upon any sale or other disposition of the Collateral, together with all other monies received by the Collateral Agent hereunder, shall be applied as provided in the
applicable Intercreditor Agreements. 
 (b) All payments required to be made hereunder shall be made to the Collateral Agent for the account
of the Secured Creditors. 
 (c) It is understood that the Assignors shall remain jointly and severally liable to the extent of any
deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Obligations. 

Section 8.5 Remedies Cumulative. Each and every right, power and remedy hereby specifically given to the Collateral Agent
shall be in addition to every other right, power and remedy specifically given to the Collateral Agent under this Agreement, the other Notes Documents or now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by statute and each and every right, power and
remedy whether specifically herein given or otherwise existing may be exercised from time to time or simultaneously and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Collateral Agent. All such rights, powers and remedies shall be
cumulative and the exercise or the beginning of the exercise of one shall not be deemed a waiver of the right to exercise any other or others. No delay or omission of the Collateral Agent in the exercise of any such right, power or remedy and no
renewal or extension of any of the Obligations shall impair any such right, power or remedy or shall be construed to be a waiver of any Default or Event of Default or an acquiescence thereof. No notice to or demand on any Assignor in any case shall
entitle it to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of any of the rights of the Collateral Agent to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand. In the event that
the Collateral Agent shall bring any suit to enforce any of its rights hereunder and shall be entitled to judgment, then in such suit the Collateral Agent may recover reasonable expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, and the amounts
thereof shall be included in such judgment. 
 Section 8.6 Discontinuance of Proceedings. In case the Collateral Agent
shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined
adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case the relevant Assignor, the Collateral Agent and each holder of any of the 

  
 26 

 
Obligations shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral subject to the security interest created under this Agreement, and all rights, remedies
and powers of the Collateral Agent shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted. 
 ARTICLE IX

Section 9.1 Indemnity. (a) Each Assignor jointly and severally agrees to indemnify, reimburse and hold the Collateral
Agent, each other Secured Creditor and their respective successors, assigns, employees, affiliates and agents (hereinafter in this Section 9.1 referred to individually as “Indemnitee”, and collectively as
“Indemnitees”) harmless from any and all liabilities, obligations, damages, injuries, penalties, claims, demands, actions, suits, judgments and any and all costs, fees, expenses or disbursements (including reasonable attorneys’
fees and expenses) (for the purposes of this Section 9.1 the foregoing are collectively called “expenses”) of whatsoever kind and nature imposed on, asserted against or incurred by any of the Indemnitees in any way relating to or
arising out of this Agreement, any other Notes Documents or any other document executed in connection herewith or therewith or in any other way connected with the administration of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or the enforcement
of any of the terms of, or the preservation of any rights under any thereof, or in any way relating to or arising out of the manufacture, ownership, ordering, purchase, delivery, control, acceptance, lease, financing, possession, operation,

losses, damages or liabilities to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Each Assignor agrees that upon written
notice by any Indemnitee of the assertion of such a liability, obligation, damage, injury, penalty, claim, demand, action, suit or judgment, the relevant Assignor shall assume full responsibility for the defense thereof; provided however, that
failure to provide written notice shall not relieve Assignors of any obligation to provide indemnity. Each Indemnitee agrees to use its best efforts to promptly notify the relevant Assignor of any such assertion of which such Indemnitee has
knowledge. 
 (b) Without limiting the application of Section 9.1(a) hereof, each Assignor agrees, jointly and severally, to pay or
reimburse the Collateral Agent for any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses of whatever kind or nature incurred in connection with the creation, preservation or protection of the Collateral Agent’s Liens on, and security interest in, the
Collateral, including, without limitation, all fees and taxes in connection with the recording or filing of instruments and documents in public offices, payment or discharge of any taxes or Liens upon or in respect of the Collateral, premiums for
insurance with respect to the Collateral and all other fees, costs and expenses in connection with protecting, maintaining or preserving the 

  
 27 

 
Collateral and the Collateral Agent’s interest therein, whether through judicial proceedings or otherwise, or in defending or prosecuting any actions, suits or proceedings arising out of or
relating to the Collateral. 
 (c) Without limiting the application of Section 9.1(a) or (b) hereof, each Assignor agrees, jointly
and severally, to pay, indemnify and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any loss, costs, damages and expenses which such Indemnitee may suffer, expend or incur in consequence of or growing out of any misrepresentation by any Assignor in
this Agreement, any other Notes Document or in any writing contemplated by or made or delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or any other Notes Document. 

(d) If and to the extent that the obligations of any Assignor under this Section 9.1 are unenforceable for any reason, such Assignor
hereby agrees to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of such obligations which is permissible under applicable law. 

Section 9.2 Indemnity Obligations Secured by Collateral; Survival. Any amounts paid by any Indemnitee as to which such
Indemnitee has the right to reimbursement shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral. The indemnity obligations of each Assignor contained in this Article IX shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the full payment of all
of the other Obligations and the occurrence of the Termination Date.

this Agreement may be changed, waived, modified or varied in any manner whatsoever unless in writing duly signed by each Assignor 

  
 35 

 
directly affected thereby (it being understood that the addition or release of any Assignor hereunder shall not constitute a change, waiver, discharge or termination affecting any Assignor other
than the Assignor so added or released) and the Collateral Agent (with the written consent of the Required Secured Creditors if required by the Indenture). 

Section 11.3 Obligations Absolute. The obligations of each Assignor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect without
regard to, and shall not be impaired by, (a) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of such Assignor; (b) any exercise or non-exercise, or any waiver of, any right,
remedy, power or privilege under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Notes Document; or (c) any amendment to or modification of any Notes Document or any security for any of the Obligations; whether or not such Assignor shall have

with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent, the other Secured Creditors and their respective successors, transferees and assigns. All agreements, statements, representations and warranties
made by each Assignor herein or in any certificate or other instrument delivered by such Assignor or on its behalf under this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Secured Creditors and shall survive the execution and

ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY ACCEPTS FOR ITSELF AND IN RESPECT OF ITS PROPERTY, GENERALLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY, THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF THE AFORESAID COURTS. EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY FURTHER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY CLAIM THAT ANY SUCH COURTS LACK

NOTES DOCUMENT THAT SUCH SERVICE OF PROCESS WAS IN ANY WAY INVALID OR INEFFECTIVE. NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF THE COLLATERAL AGENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR ANY SECURED CREDITOR, TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR
TO COMMENCE LEGAL PROCEEDINGS OR OTHERWISE PROCEED AGAINST ANY ASSIGNOR IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. 
 (b) EACH ASSIGNOR HEREBY IRREVOCABLY

ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER NOTES DOCUMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. 

Section 11.7 Assignor’s Duties. It is expressly agreed, anything herein contained to the contrary notwithstanding, that
each Assignor shall remain liable to perform all of the obligations, if any, assumed by it with respect to the Collateral and the Collateral Agent shall not have any obligations or liabilities with respect to any Collateral by reason of or arising
out of this Agreement, nor shall the Collateral Agent be required or obligated in any manner to perform or fulfill any of the obligations of any Assignor under or with respect to any Collateral. 

Section 11.8 Termination; Release. (a) After the Termination Date, this Agreement shall terminate (provided that all
indemnities set forth herein including, without limitation in Section 9.1 hereof, shall survive such termination) and the Collateral Agent, at the written request and expense of the respective Assignor, will promptly execute and deliver to such
Assignor a proper instrument or instruments prepared by such Assignor (after which such Assignor may prepare and file UCC termination statements on form UCC-3) acknowledging the satisfaction and termination of this Agreement, and will duly assign,
transfer and deliver to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as 

  
 37 

 
may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and as has not theretofore been sold or otherwise applied or released pursuant to this Agreement. As used in this Agreement, “Termination
Date” shall mean the date upon which all the Obligations under the Indenture have been paid in full in cash and the Indenture has been discharged in accordance with its terms. 

(b) In the event that any part of the Collateral is (w) sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of (to a Person other than the Issuer or a
Subsidiary Guarantor) in a transaction not prohibited by the Notes Documents at the time of such sale, transfer or disposition, (x) is owned or at any time acquired by a Subsidiary Guarantor that has been released from its Subsidiary Guarantee
pursuant to the Notes Documents (including in connection with the designation of such Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary), (y) released (and/or the Lien on such Collateral is released) pursuant to Section 11.3(a) of the
Indenture or (z) released at the direction of the Required Secured Creditors in accordance with the Notes Documents, the security interest created hereby with respect to such part of the Collateral shall automatically be released and the
Collateral Agent, at the reasonable written request and expense of such Assignor, will execute and deliver such documentation, including termination or partial release statements and the like in connection therewith and assign, transfer and deliver
to such Assignor (without recourse and without any representation or warranty) such of the Collateral as is then being (or has been) so sold or otherwise disposed of, or released, and as may be in the possession of the Collateral Agent and has not
theretofore been released pursuant to this Agreement. The proceeds of such sale, transfer or other disposition shall be applied in accordance with the terms of the Indenture or such other Notes Documents to the extent required to be so applied.
Furthermore, upon the release of any Subsidiary Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, such Assignor (and the Collateral at such time assigned by the respective Assignor pursuant hereto) shall be
released from this Agreement. 
 (c) At any time that an Assignor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action to acknowledge or give
effect to any release of Collateral pursuant to the foregoing Section 11.8(a) or (b), such Assignor shall deliver to the Collateral Agent a certificate signed by a principal executive officer of such Assignor stating that the release of the
respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to such Section 11.8(a) or (b). 
 (d) The Collateral Agent shall have no liability
whatsoever to any other Secured Creditor as the result of any release of Collateral by it in accordance with (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be in accordance with) this Section 11.8. 

Section 11.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by the different parties hereto
on separate counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission or
other electronic transmission (including “.pdf” or “.tif” format) shall be effective as a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement. A set of counterparts executed by all the parties hereto shall be lodged with the Issuer and
the Collateral Agent. 
 Section 11.10 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable
in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the 

  
 38 

 
extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or
render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. 
 Section 11.11 The Collateral Agent and the other Secured
Creditors. The Collateral Agent will hold in accordance with this Agreement (and subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreements) all items of the Collateral at any time received under this Agreement. It is expressly understood and agreed
that the obligations of the Collateral Agent as holder of the Collateral and interests therein and with respect to the disposition thereof, and otherwise under this Agreement, are only those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the
Indenture. The Collateral Agent shall act hereunder on the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Indenture. 

Section 11.12 Additional Assignors. It is understood and agreed that any party that desires to become an Assignor hereunder,
or is required to execute a counterpart of this Agreement after the date hereof pursuant to the requirements of the Indenture or any other Notes Document, shall (i) become an Assignor hereunder by (x) executing a counterpart hereof and
delivering same to the Collateral Agent or by executing a joinder agreement and delivering same to the Collateral Agent, (y) delivering supplements (to the extent applicable) to Annexes A through F, inclusive, G through J, inclusive, and N
through Q, inclusive, hereto as are necessary to cause such Annexes to be complete and accurate with respect to such additional Assignor on such date and (z) taking all actions as specified in this Agreement as would have been taken by such
Assignor had it been an original party to this Agreement, in each case with all documents required above to be delivered to the Collateral Agent and (ii) be deemed to have made the representations and warranties made by the Assignors in this
Agreement; provided that any such representations and warranties that relate to the date of this Agreement shall be deemed to relate to the date such additional Assignor becomes an Assignor hereunder. 

Section 11.13 Intercreditor Agreements. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the exercise of any right or remedy
by the Collateral Agent hereunder shall be subject to the provisions of the applicable Intercreditor Agreements. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any applicable Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the applicable
Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control. 
 Section 11.14 Discretionary Action. Notwithstanding anything else to
the contrary herein, whenever reference is made in this Agreement to any discretionary action by, consent, designation, specification, requirement or approval of, notice, request or other communication from, or other direction given or action to be
undertaken or to be (or not to be) suffered or omitted by the Collateral Agent or to any election, decision, opinion, acceptance, use of judgment, expression of satisfaction, reasonable satisfaction or other exercise of discretion, rights or
remedies to be made (or not to be made) by the Collateral Agent, it is understood that in all cases the Collateral Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any such action under this Agreement if it shall not have received such
written instruction, advice or concurrence of the the Required Secured Creditors as it deems appropriate. This provision is intended solely for the benefit of the Collateral Agent and its successors and permitted assigns and is not intended to and
will not entitle the other parties hereto to any defense, claim or counterclaim, or confer any rights or benefits on any party hereto.

 WHEREAS,
the Assignor, certain of its affiliates and the Assignee have entered into a Security Agreement, dated as of March 31, 2014 (as amended, modified, restated and/or supplemented from time to time, the “Collateral Agreement”),
under which, among other things, in order to secure the payment of the Obligations (as defined in the Collateral Agreement), the Assignor has or will pledge to the Assignee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors (as defined in the Collateral
Agreement), and grant a security interest in favor of the Assignee for the benefit of the Secured Creditors in, all of the right, title and interest of the Assignor in and to any and all [“uncertificated securities” (as defined in
Section 8-102(a)(18) of the Uniform Commercial Code, as adopted in the State of New York) (“Uncertificated Securities”)] [Partnership Interests (as defined in the Collateral Agreement)] [Limited Liability Company Interests (as
defined in the Collateral Agreement)], from time to time issued by the Issuer, whether now existing or hereafter from time to time acquired by the Assignor (with all of such [Uncertificated Securities] [Partnership Interests] [Limited Liability
Company Interests] being herein collectively called the “Issuer Pledged Interests”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Assignor desires
the Issuer to enter into this Agreement in order to perfect the security interest of the Assignee under the Collateral Agreement in the Issuer Pledged Interests, to vest in the Assignee control of the Issuer Pledged Interests and to provide for the
rights of the parties under this Agreement; 
 NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual promises and agreements
contained herein, and for other valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 

1. The Assignor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Issuer, and the Issuer hereby agrees, to comply with any and all instructions and
orders originated by the Assignee (and its successors and assigns) regarding any and all of the Issuer Pledged Interests without the further consent by the registered owner (including the Assignor), and, following its

Page 2 
  

 
receipt of a notice from the Assignee stating that the Assignee is exercising exclusive control of the Issuer Pledged Interests, not to comply with any instructions or orders regarding any or all
of the Issuer Pledged Interests originated by any person or entity other than the Assignee (and its successors and assigns) or a court of competent jurisdiction. 

2. The Issuer hereby certifies that (i) no notice of any security interest, lien or other encumbrance or claim affecting the Issuer
Pledged Interests (other than the security interest of the Assignee and the security interests granted under the Pari Passu Credit Facility (as defined in the Indenture (as defined in the Collateral Agreement)) and the Junior Credit Facility (as
defined in the Indenture (as defined in the Collateral Agreement))) has been received by it, and (ii) the security interest of the Assignee in the Issuer Pledged Interests has been registered in the books and records of the Issuer. 

3. The Issuer hereby represents and warrants that (i) the pledge by the Assignor of, and the granting by the Assignor of a security
interest in, the Issuer Pledged Interests to the Assignee, for the benefit of the Secured Creditors, does not violate the charter, by-laws, partnership agreement, membership agreement or any other agreement governing the Issuer or the Issuer Pledged
Interests, and (ii) the Issuer Pledged Interests consisting of capital stock of a corporation are fully paid and nonassessable.
