“7.6           RSL Preemptive Rights.   From the First Amendment Date until Outside Date (as defined in the TW Subscription Agreement), in the event no Time Warner Loans are drawn on or before such date, or otherwise until the 180th day following the Loan Disbursement Date, if the Company intends to issue Class A Common Shares to the public in a registered underwritten public offering, the Company shall give the RSL Investors written notice of such intention (including, to the extent possible, a copy of the prospectus included in the registration statement filed in respect of such public offering) describing, to the extent then known, the anticipated amount of Class A Common Shares (the “Offered Class A Shares”), range of prices, timing and other material terms of such offering.  The Company shall give such written notice no less than three (3) business days prior to the commencement of the marketing efforts with respect to such registered public offering, which notice shall constitute an offer to sell to the RSL Investors a portion of the Offered Class A Shares that would result in the RSL Investors beneficially owning (excluding the RSL Excluded Shares) 4.7% of the total outstanding Class A Common Shares, after giving effect to the registered underwritten public offering and the sale of any Designated Securities to TW Investors pursuant to Section 7.3 (the “RSL Designated Securities”).  An RSL Investor must exercise its respective purchase rights under this Section 7.6 prior to the commencement of marketing efforts with respect to such offering, which commencement shall not be earlier than three (3) business days following the delivery of written notice to the RSL Investors of such offering, by providing a binding indication of interest (which shall be subject to customary conditions with respect to the offering, including the pricing) of such RSL Investor to purchase the RSL Designated Securities within the range of prices and consistent with the other terms set forth in the Company’s notice to it.  In the event the pricing of the offering is not yet consummated, any binding indication of interest will expire after the second trading day subsequent to the anticipated pricing date set forth in the Company's notice.  If a RSL Investor exercises its respective purchase rights provided in this Section 7.6, the Company shall agree to sell to such RSL Investor, at the time of pricing of the offering, the RSL Designated Securities (as adjusted to reflect the actual size of such offering when priced) at the same price as the Class A Common Shares that are offered to the public.  Contemporaneously with the execution of any underwriting agreement entered into between the Company and the underwriters of an underwritten public offering, each such RSL Investor shall enter into an instrument in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company acknowledging such RSL Investor’s binding obligation to purchase the RSL Designated Securities to be acquired by it.  The failure by any RSL Investor to provide a binding indication of interest with respect to a registered public offering of Offered Class A Shares shall constitute a waiver of the rights granted pursuant to this Section 7.6.  The rights granted pursuant to this Section 7.6 may be exercised once and, if waived, the Company will have no further obligations.  In connection with the exercise of the rights granted pursuant to this Section 7.6, each RSL Investor shall enter into customary lock-up agreements and registration rights waivers as any managing underwriter of such registered public offering may reasonably request.”

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this First Amendment to Investor Rights Agreement to be executed by their duly authorized representatives as of the day and year first above written.
