          (c) The Company shall not include in any Demand Registration any securities that are not Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Demanding Stockholder.

          (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company shall furnish to the Demanding Stockholder a certificate signed by an officer of the Company stating that, in the reasonable good faith judgment of the Board, it would not be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders for such registration to be effected (because the Company is engaging in or intends to engage in an acquisition, divestiture or other material transaction or due to other extraordinary events relating to the Company, but, in any case, not including for purposes of the Company avoiding its obligations hereunder), then the Company shall have the right to defer such registration for a period of not more than 90 days after receipt of the request of the Demanding Stockholder; provided, however, that (i) the Company shall not be entitled to defer its obligation to effect a registration for an aggregate of more than 180 days within any 365-day period and (ii) the Company shall make and communicate to the selling Stockholders its determinations under this paragraph in respect of a registration under this Section 4.2 within 15 days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration notice in respect of such registration or, to the extent reasonably practicable, promptly after becoming aware of such transaction.
          (e) The Demanding Stockholder shall select the book-running and other managing underwriters in connection with an offering pursuant to a Demand Registration, and any additional investment bankers and managers to be used in connection with the offering, in each case which shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.
          Section 4.3 Piggyback Registration.
          (a) At any time that the Company proposes to register any shares of Common Stock under the 1933 Act for sale solely for cash, for its own account or pursuant to a Demand Registration, and the registration form to be used may be used for the registration of Registrable Securities (each a “Piggyback Registration”), the Company shall give written notice of such proposed registration to the Stockholders and the Non-party Holders as soon as practicable (but in no event less than 20 days before the anticipated filing date of the registration statement effecting such registration), and the Company shall include in any such registration by it all Registrable Securities with respect to which it has received written requests for inclusion therein within 10 days after receipt by such Stockholders or by such Non-party Holders of such written notice from the Company. If any Piggyback Registration is an underwritten offering, the Company shall select the book running and other managing underwriters in connection with such offering and any additional investment bankers and managers to be used in connection with the offering.
          (b) If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten primary registration on behalf of the Company, the Company shall include in such registration all securities requested to be included in such registration; provided, however, that if the managing

-11-


 

underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number or class of such securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number or class which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration (1) first, the securities that the Company proposes to sell, (2) second, to the extent Registrable Securities requested for inclusion therein need to be reduced as a result of such advice, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Stockholders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Stockholder, (3) third, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Non-party Holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Non-party Holder and (4) fourth, other securities, if any, requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such securities owned by each such holder.
          (c) If a Piggyback Registration is in connection with a Demand Registration, the restrictions set forth in Section 4.2(c) shall apply. If a Piggyback Registration is an underwritten secondary registration on behalf of holders of securities of the Company (and is not a Demand Registration) and the managing underwriters advise the Company in writing that in their opinion the number or class of securities requested to be included in such registration exceeds the number or class which can be sold in such offering without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering, the Company shall include in such registration (1) first, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Stockholders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Stockholder, (2) second, the Registrable Securities requested to be included in such registration, pro rata among the Non-party Holders of such Registrable Securities on the basis of the number of Registrable Securities owned by each such Non-party Holder and (3) third, any other securities requested to be included in such registration not covered by clause (1) above pro rata among the holders of such securities on the basis of the number of such securities owned by each such holder.
          (d) The Company shall not be obligated to include any Registrable Securities in a registration statement (1) filed on Forms S-4 or S-8 or such other similar successor forms then in effect under the 1933 Act, (2) pursuant to which the Company is offering to exchange its own securities or (3) relating solely to dividend reinvestment plans.
          (e) Any Piggyback Registration relating to a sale of securities by the Company for its own account shall be managed by the Company; the Company shall have the power to select the managing underwriter(s) for such offering, and shall in consultation with the managing underwriter(s) have the power to determine the offering price, the underwriting discounts and commissions, the terms of the underwriting agreement, the timing of the registration and related offering, counsel to the Company, and all other administrative matters related to the registration and related offering. To the extent that the Stockholders or Non-party Holders participate in such a registration and related offering, such Stockholders or Non-party Holders shall enter into, and sell their

-12-


 

Registrable Securities only pursuant to, the underwriting arranged by the Company, and shall either commit to attend the closing of the offering and take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to effect their participation in the offering and to provide any assurances reasonably requested by the Company and the managing underwriter(s) in that regard, are shall deliver to the Company in custody certificates representing all Registrable Securities to be included in the registration and shall execute and deliver to the Company a custody agreement and a power of attorney, each in form and substance appropriate for the purpose of effecting their participation in such registration.
          Section 4.4 Registration Procedures. Subject to the limitations in Sections 4.2 and 4.3, whenever the Stockholders or Non-party Holders have requested that any Registrable Securities be registered pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to effect the registration and sale of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method of disposition thereof, and pursuant thereto the Company shall as expeditiously as practicable:

          (c) if requested, prior to filing such registration statement or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to the selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders and each managing underwriter, if any, copies thereof, and thereafter furnish to the selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders and each such underwriter, if any, such number of copies of such registration statement, each amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including without limitation all exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by reference therein) and the prospectus included in such registration statement (including without limitation each preliminary prospectus) as such Stockholders or Non-party Holders or such underwriter may reasonably request in or to facilitate the sale of the Registrable Securities;
          (d) use its reasonable best efforts to register or qualify such Registrable Securities under such other securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions as any seller reasonably requests and do any and all other acts and things which may be reasonably necessary or advisable to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the Registrable Securities owned by such seller, provided, that the Company shall not be required to (1) qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this subsection, (2) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction, or (3) consent to general service of process (i.e.,

          (g) cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed and, if not so listed, to be listed on the NASDAQ (or such other national securities exchange as the Board determines provides the best liquidity on which such Registrable Securities may be listed), if so requested by the holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold, or if so requested by the managing underwriter of an offering pursuant to such registration statement;
          (h) provide a transfer agent and registrar for all such Registrable Securities not later than the effective date of such registration statement;
          (i) enter into such customary agreements (including without limitation underwriting agreements in customary form) and take all such other actions as the underwriters, if any, reasonably request in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;
          (j) make available for inspection by any seller of Registrable Securities, any underwriter participating in any disposition pursuant to such registration statement and any attorney, accountant or other agent retained by any such seller or underwriter, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the managers, officers, members, employees and independent accountants of the Company to supply all information reasonably requested by any such

          (l) permit any selling Stockholder or Non-party Holder (which Stockholder or Non-party Holder, in the Company’s sole and exclusive judgment, might be deemed to be an underwriter or a controlling Person of the Company) to participate in the preparation of such registration or comparable statement and to require the insertion therein of material, furnished to the Company in writing, which in the reasonable judgment of such Stockholder or Non-party Holder and its counsel should be included;
          (m) in the event of the issuance of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of a registration statement, or of any order suspending or preventing the use of any related prospectus or suspending the qualification of any securities included in such registration statement for sale in any jurisdiction, use its reasonable best efforts promptly to obtain the withdrawal of such order;
          (n) use its reasonable best efforts to cause such Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental agencies or authorities as may be necessary to enable the sellers thereof to consummate the disposition of such Registrable Securities;

          Section 4.5 Registration Expenses. In connection with any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration, each selling Stockholder or Non-party Holder shall be responsible for any underwriting discounts or commission that may be payable in connection with the sale of its respective securities. The Company shall pay all other expenses incurred in connection with such registration, including without limitation (1) all filing fees with the SEC, (2) fees and expenses of compliance with securities or blue sky laws (including without limitation reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel in connection with blue sky qualifications of the securities), (3) printing expenses, (4) the fees and expenses incurred in connection with the listing of the securities, (5) fees and expenses of counsel and independent certified public accountants for the Company (including without limitation the expenses of any comfort letters pursuant to Section 4.4(o) hereof), (6) the reasonable fees and expenses of any additional experts retained by the Company in connection with such registration and (7) fees and expenses of one counsel to the selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders to be mutually agreed upon.
          Section 4.6 Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Person who participates as an underwriter, each Stockholder and their respective partners, directors, officers and employees and each Person, if any, who controls any Stockholder or Non-party Holder or underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:
          (a) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and reasonable expenses whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any registration statement pursuant to which Registrable Securities were registered under the 1933 Act, including without limitation all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, including without limitation all documents incorporated therein by reference, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading;
          (b) against any and all losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and reasonable expenses whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in settlement of any litigation, investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any other claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, if such settlement is effected with the written consent of the Company; and
          (c) against any and all reasonable expense whatsoever, as incurred (including without limitation fees and disbursements of counsel), incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, investigation or proceeding, commenced or threatened, in each case whether or not such Person is a party, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under sub-paragraph (a) or (b) above;

-16-


 

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement (i) does not apply to any Stockholder or Non-party Holder or underwriter with respect to any loss, liability, claim, damage, judgment or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in any such case made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such Stockholder or Non-party Holder or underwriter expressly for use in a registration statement (or any amendment thereto) or any prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto) and (ii) shall not inure to the benefit of any Stockholder or Non-party Holder or underwriter if a copy of the current prospectus was not provided to a purchaser and such current prospectus would have cured the defect giving rise to such loss, claim, damage, liability, judgment or expense.
          Section 4.7 Indemnification by Stockholders. Each selling Stockholder and Non-party Holder severally agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each underwriter and the other selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders, and each of their respective partners, directors, officers and employees (including without limitation each officer of the Company who signed the registration statement), and each Person, if any, who controls the Company, any underwriter or any other selling Stockholder or Non-party Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, against any and all lasses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses described in the indemnity contained in Section 4.6 (provided that any settlement of the type described therein is effected with the written consent of such selling Stockholder or such Non-party Holder), as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or alleged untrue statements of a material fact contained in any prospectus or the omissions, or alleged omissions therefrom of a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, in any such case made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by such selling Stockholder or such Non-party Holder expressly for use in such registration statement (or any amendment thereto) or such prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto).
          Section 4.8 Conduct of Indemnification Proceedings. Each indemnified party shall give reasonably prompt notice to each indemnifying party of any action or proceeding commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought hereunder; provided, however, that failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under this indemnity agreement, except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. If the indemnifying party so elects within a reasonable time after receipt of such notice, such indemnifying party may assume the defense of such action or proceeding at such indemnifying party’s expense with counsel chosen by the indemnifying party and approved by the indemnified party defendant in such action or proceeding, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, however, that, if such indemnified party determines in good faith that a conflict of interest exists and that therefore it is advisable for such indemnified party to be represented by separate counsel or that, upon advice of counsel, there may be legal defenses available to it which are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party, then the indemnifying party shall not be entitled to assume such defense and the indemnified party shall be entitled to separate counsel (limited in each jurisdiction to one counsel for all underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified parties under this Agreement) at the indemnifying

-17-


 

party’s expense. If an indemnifying party is not so entitled to assume the defense of such action or does not assume such defense, after having received the notice referred to in the first sentence of this paragraph, the indemnifying party will pay the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party (limited in each jurisdiction to one counsel for all underwriters and another counsel for all other indemnified parties under this Agreement). No indemnifying party will be liable for any settlement effected without the written consent of such indemnifying party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. If an indemnifying party is entitled to assume, and assumes, the defense of such action or proceeding in accordance with this paragraph, such indemnifying party shall not, except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.8, be liable for any fees and expenses of counsel for the indemnified party incurred thereafter in connection with such action or proceeding.
          Section 4.9 Contribution.
          (a) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in Sections 4.6 through 4.8 is for any reason held to be unenforceable by the indemnified parties although applicable in accordance with its terms in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses suffered by an indemnified party referred to therein, each applicable indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the liable Selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders (including without limitation, in each case, that of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments or expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the liable selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders (including without limitation, in each case, that of their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company, on the one hand, or by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholders and Non-party Holders, on the other, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses, liabilities, claims, damages, judgments and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.8, any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with investigating or defending any action or claim.
          (b) The parties agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.9 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in subparagraph (a) above. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 4.9, in the case of distributions to the public, an indemnifying Stockholder or Non-party Holder shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount

-18-


 

by which (A) the total price at which the Registrable Securities sold by such indemnifying Stockholder or Non-party Holder and its affiliated indemnifying Stockholders and Non-party Holders and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds (B) the amount of any damages which such indemnifying Stockholder or Non-party Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
          (c) For purposes of Sections 4.6 through this Section 4.9, each Person, if any, who controls a Stockholder or Non-party Holder or an underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act (and their respective partners, directors, officers and employees) shall have the same rights to contribution as such Stockholder or Non-party Holder or underwriter; and each director of the Company, each officer of the Company who signed the registration statement, and each Person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act, shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company.
          Section 4.10 Participation in Underwritten Registrations. No Stockholder or Non-party Holder may participate in any underwritten registered offering contemplated hereunder unless such Stockholder or Non-party Holder (a) agrees to sell its securities on the basis provided in any underwriting arrangements and (b) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements, lock-up agreements and other documents reasonably required under the terms hereof and of such underwriting arrangements.
          Section 4.11 Rule 144. The Company covenants that from and after an Initial Public Offering it shall file any reports required to be filed by it under the 1933 Act and the 1934 Act and that it shall take such further action as the Stockholders or Non-party Holders may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable the Stockholders or Non-party Holders to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the 1933 Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 under the 1933 Act, as such rule may be amended from time to time, or any similar rule or regulation hereafter adopted by the SEC. Upon the request of any Stockholder or Non-party Holder, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Stockholders and Non-party Holders a written statement as to whether it has complied with such requirements.
          Section 4.12 Holdback Agreements.
          (a) To the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, each Stockholder and Non-party Holder agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution (including without limitation sales pursuant to Rule 144) of equity securities of the Company or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the seven days prior to and the period of up to 180 days beginning on the effective date of any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration for a public offering to be underwritten on a firm commitment basis in which Registrable Securities

-19-


 

are included (except as part of such underwritten registration), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.
          (b) The Company agrees (1) not to effect any public sale or distribution (including without limitation sales pursuant to Rule 144) of its equity securities or any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity securities, during the seven days prior to and the period of up to 180 days beginning on the effective date of any Demand Registration or Piggyback Registration for a public offering to be underwritten on a firm commitment basis in which Registrable Securities are included (except as part of such underwritten registration or pursuant to registrations on Forms S-4 or S-8 or any successor forms), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree, and (2) to use its reasonable best efforts to cause each other stockholder of at least 5% of the Fully-Diluted Shares to agree not to effect any public sale or distribution (including without limitation sales pursuant to Rule 144) of any such securities during such period (except as part of such underwritten registration, if otherwise permitted), unless the underwriters managing the registered public offering otherwise agree.

ARTICLE VI
GENERAL PROVISIONS
          Section 6.1 License Activities. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or the Recap Agreement, neither the Company nor any party hereto shall, without first obtaining the approval or consent of the FCC, take any action pursuant to this Agreement or the Recap Agreement which would be reasonably likely to cause or result in any acquisition or transfer of ownership of the Company or its assets, assignment of any FCC License or any change of control that would require, under then existing law (including the Communications Act of 1934), the prior approval of the FCC; provided, however, that the preceding clause shall not preclude any of MS, Hitachi or Ball, as the case may be, from exercising its rights under Article II of this Agreement.
          (b) If the FCC does not approve, or otherwise consent to, the transfer of control of the Company to MS or if the FCC determines that this Agreement, the Recap Agreement, and/or the facts associated with the ownership of the Company demonstrate that control of the Company has changed, the parties to this Agreement agree to revise this Agreement and the Recap Agreement, or otherwise impose conditions, in order to ensure compliance with then existing laws and regulations.
          Section 6.2 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of:
          (a) written agreement among the holders of two-thirds of the Fully-Diluted Shares to terminate this Agreement;
          (b) as to any of Ball, Hitachi, MS, CapRe or Post, at such time as such party ceases to own any shares of New Common Stock; provided, however, that the provisions hereof will continue to apply to any Permitted Transferees of Hitachi, Ball, MS, CapRe or Post even after such provisions terminate with respect to such parties; and
          (c) June 30, 2013;
          provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, Articles II and III shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of the events set forth in clauses (a) and (b) above or the Initial Public Offering.
          Section 6.3 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties. Copies of executed counterparts transmitted by telecopy, telefax or other electronic transmission service shall be considered original executed counterparts for purposes of this Section, provided receipt of copies of such counterparts is confirmed.
          Section 6.4 Governing Law. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REFERENCE TO THE CHOICE OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF.

          Section 6.5 Entire Agreement. Except for any agreements, understanding, representations or warranties set forth in the Recap Agreement, this Agreement contains the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and there are no agreements, understandings, representations or warranties between the parties other than those set forth or referred to herein. This Agreement is not intended to confer upon any Person not a party hereto (and their successors and assigns) any rights or remedies hereunder.
          Section 6.6 Specific Performance. The parties hereto each acknowledge that, in view of the uniqueness of the arrangements contemplated by this Agreement, the parties hereto would not have an adequate remedy at law for money damages in the event that this Agreement were not performed in accordance with its terms, and therefore agree that the parties hereto shall be entitled to specific enforcement of the terms hereof in addition to any other remedy to which the parties hereto may be entitled at law or in equity.
          Section 6.7 Notices. All notices, requests, demands or other communications required by or otherwise with respect to this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given to any party when delivered by hand, by messenger, or by a nationally recognized overnight delivery company, when delivered by telecopy and confirmed by return telecopy, or when delivered by first-class mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, in each case to the applicable addresses set forth below (or such other addresses as a party may designate by written notice to each other party).
