This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of News Corporation and any other successors and general assigns of the Company or any other corporation or entity which is a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company or News Corporation to which this Agreement is assigned, and any other corporation or entity into which the Company or News Corporation may be merged or with which it may be consolidated.

Each party acknowledges that such party has participated with, at its option, the advice of counsel, in the preparation of this Agreement.

The parties agree that they have jointly prepared and approved the language of the provisions of this Agreement and that should any dispute arise concerning the interpretation of any provision hereof, neither party shall be deemed the drafter nor shall any such language be presumptively construed in favor of or against either party.

15. Severability. The conditions and provisions herein set forth shall be severable, and if any condition or provision or portion thereof shall be held invalid or unenforceable, then said condition or provision shall not in any manner affect any other condition or provision and the remainder of this Agreement and every section thereof construed without regard to said invalid condition or provision, shall continue in full force and effect.

16. Assignment. Neither party shall have the right, subject to Section 11 hereof, to assign the Executive’s rights and obligations with respect to his actual employment duties without the prior consent of the other party.

17. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and this Agreement supersedes and renders null and void any and all prior oral or written agreements, understandings or commitments pertaining to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, the Prior Agreement. No waiver or modification of the terms or provisions hereof shall be valid unless in writing signed by the party so to be charged thereby and then only to the extent therein set forth.

18. Section 409A.

(a) This Agreement is intended to comply with Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will be interpreted accordingly. References under this Agreement to the Executive’s termination of employment shall be deemed to refer to the date upon which the Executive has experienced a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) if at the time of the Executive’s separation from service with the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, the Executive is a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A of the Code (and any related regulations or other pronouncements thereunder) and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder or payable under any other compensatory arrangement between the Executive and the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, or any of their affiliates as a result of such separation from service is necessary in order to prevent any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Executive) until the date that is six months following the Executive’s separation from service (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code), at which point all

6

payments deferred pursuant to this Section shall be paid to the Executive in a lump sum and (ii) if any other payments of money or other benefits due to the Executive hereunder could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, such payments or other benefits shall be deferred if deferral will make such payment or other benefits compliant under Section 409A of the Code, or otherwise such payment or other benefits shall be restructured, to the extent possible, in a manner that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax. Any payments deferred pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be paid together with interest thereon at a rate equal to the applicable Federal rate for short-term instruments.

(c) To the extent any reimbursements or in-kind benefits due to the Executive under this Agreement constitute “deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, any such reimbursements or in-kind benefits shall be paid to the Executive in a manner consistent with Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-3(i)(1)(iv). Additionally, to the extent that the Executive’s receipt of any in-kind benefits from the Company or News Corporation or their affiliates must be delayed pursuant to this Section due to his status as a “specified employee”, the Executive may elect to instead purchase and receive such benefits during the period in which the provision of benefits would otherwise be delayed by paying the Company or News Corporation (or their affiliates) for the fair market value of such benefits (as determined by the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, in good faith) during such period. Any amounts paid by the Executive pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be reimbursed to the Executive (with interest thereon) as described above on the date that is six months following his separation from service.

(d) Each payment made under this Agreement shall be designated as a “separate payment” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code.

(e) The Company or News Corporation, as applicable, shall consult with the Executive in good faith regarding the implementation of the provisions of this Section. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive shall notify the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, if he believes that any provision of this Agreement (or of any award of compensation, including equity compensation, or benefits) would cause the Executive to incur any additional tax under Code Section 409A and, if the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, concurs with such belief after good faith review or the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, independently makes such determination, then the Company or News Corporation, as applicable, shall, after consulting with the Executive, use reasonable best efforts to reform such provision to comply with Code Section 409A through good faith modifications to the minimum extent reasonably appropriate to conform with Code Section 409A.

(f) Any amount that Executive is entitled to be reimbursed under this Agreement will be reimbursed to Executive as promptly as practical and in any event not later than the last day of the calendar year after the calendar year in which the expenses are incurred, and the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement during any calendar year will not affect the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other calendar year.

(g) Whenever a payment under this Agreement specifies a payment period with reference to a number of days (e.g., “payment shall be made within thirty (30) days following the date of termination”), the actual date of payment within the specified period shall be within the sole discretion of the Company or News Corporation, as applicable.

(h) Unless this Agreement provides a specified and objectively determinable payment schedule to the contrary, to the extent that any payment of base salary or other compensation is to be paid for a specified continuing period of time beyond the Executive’s termination of employment in accordance with the Company’s or News Corporation’s payroll practices (or other similar term), the payments of such base salary or other compensation shall be made on a monthly basis.

7

(i) To the extent that severance payments or benefits pursuant to this Agreement are conditioned upon the execution and delivery by you of a release of claims (and the expiration of any revocation rights provided therein) which could become effective in one of two (2) taxable years of the Executive depending on when you execute and deliver the release, any deferred compensation payment (which is subject to Code Section 409A) that is conditioned on execution of the waiver and release shall be made within ten (10) days after the waiver and release becomes effective and such revocation rights have lapsed, but not earlier than the first business day of the later of such tax years.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have affixed their signatures as of the day and year first above written.

Performance Guaranty by News Corporation

In order to induce the Executive to enter into this Employment Agreement, News Corporation hereby guarantees the full and faithful performance by Company of the terms of this Employment Agreement.
