STARZ SEVERANCE AGREEMENT WITH __________________________________________ (the Executive) Effective Date: September 1, 2013

This Starz Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into, as of the Effective Date set forth above, by and between Starz Entertainment, LLC (the “Employer”) and the Executive named above.

This Agreement provides for severance benefits if the Executive’s employment with the Employer is terminated in a Qualifying Termination. Capitalized terms have the meanings set forth in Section 6.

a.    Severance Pay Benefits - Generally: Subject to Section 2, if the Executive’s employment is terminated in a Qualifying Termination that is not an Excluded Termination, the Executive will be eligible for severance pay benefits in an amount equal to [15/18] months of Base Pay (the “Severance Pay Amount”).

b.    Form and Timing of Severance Pay: Except as otherwise provided in Sections 2 and 3, the Severance Pay Amount will be paid in installments in amounts equal to the Executive’s Base Pay pursuant to the Employer’s regular payroll practices, commencing with the payroll date coincident with or immediately following the 50^th day after the Executive’s termination date, except that the first payment of severance pay on such date will include a lump sum amount equal to the severance pay that would have been paid during such 50-day period immediately following the Participant’s termination date; provided that the Waiver and Release has been signed by the Executive and the Waiver and Release Agreement is not revoked during any applicable revocation period.

i.    Severance pay benefits will be subject to all applicable tax and other withholdings, except that no withholding will be made for any 401(k) plan or for premiums for continued insurance coverage pursuant to the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”).

ii.    If the Executive becomes re-employed by the Employer or any member of the Starz Group in any category of employment prior to the Executive’s actual receipt of any portion of the severance pay benefit, the severance payments will be suspended, and the Executive will not be subject to additional severance payments under this Agreement. If the Executive dies after becoming eligible for severance pay but before the Executive receives the full amount of his or her severance pay benefit, the remaining amount of such Severance Pay Amount will be paid in one lump sum, within 60 days after the Executive’s date of death, to the Executive’s estate.

iii.    In no event will the severance pay benefits be considered “wages” pursuant to any State law or regulation.

c.    Adjustments to Severance Pay Benefits: The Severance Pay Amount shall be reduced by each of the following, provided that the aggregate reductions shall not reduce severance pay below the Release Consideration:

i.    the amount of wages or other compensation for services received by the Executive from any other employer or other entity (that is not a member of the Starz Group) during the Severance Period;

ii.    any wages or wage replacement benefits paid or payable to the Executive with respect to any applicable notice period required under the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN) or any state law with respect to notice prior to termination;

iii.    to the extent permitted by law, by any debt that the Executive owes the Employer or any member of the Starz Group at the time the Severance Pay Amount becomes payable; and

iv.    the Severance Pay Amount under this Agreement will be reduced (but not below the Release Consideration) by any amount of severance pay the Executive may be entitled to receive under any other severance plan or arrangement, individual written employment agreement or other agreement relating to payment upon separation from employment.

d.    Enhanced Severance Pay Benefits Upon a Change in Control. If the Executive experiences a Qualifying Termination within 30 days preceding or twelve months immediately following a Change in Control, in addition to the Severance Pay Amount described in Section 1(a) above, and subject to the adjustments in Section 1(c) and the provisions of Section 2, the Executive will be entitled to the following additional severance pay benefits:

i.    A lump sum payment equal to [40/50/70/90%] of the Executive’s Severance Pay Amount, which will be paid within 60 days following such termination date; and

ii.    Provided that the Executive elects continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985 (“COBRA”), the Employer will contribute to the health plan maintained by the Employer as of the date of termination, or any such successor health plan maintained by the Employer, that monthly amount that reflects the portion of the premium for such coverage that is paid by the Employer as of the date of termination throughout the period beginning on the date of termination and ending on the earliest of (A) the date that is 18 months following the date of termination, or (B) the expiration of the coverage period specified under COBRA.

Section 2.    Conditions for Payment of Severance Pay Benefits: The Executive must meet all of the following conditions in order to be eligible to receive severance pay benefits under this Agreement:

a.    Waiver and Release Agreement Required: To the extent permitted under applicable law, the severance pay benefits provided under this Agreement are conditioned upon the Executive returning the signed Waiver and Release Agreement to the Employer by the 45^th day following the Executive’s termination date and such Waiver and Release Agreement becoming irrevocable.

b.    Suspension of Severance Pay Upon Competitive Activities: Conditions for the Executive’s receipt of severance pay benefits are intended to protect the trade secrets and other business interests of the Starz Group. If the Executive elects to engage in Competitive Activities during the Severance Period, the Executive shall deliver to the Employer at least ten business days prior to commencing any such Competitive Activities a written notice advising the Employer of (i) the Executive’s intent to commence Competitive Activities, and (ii) the commencement date for such Competitive Activities (the “Competition Notice”). If the Executive engages in Competitive Activities prior to the expiration of the Severance Period, the Employer shall have no obligation to make any further payment of severance pay benefits (except to the extent severance pay benefits at least equal to the Release Consideration have not theretofore been paid).

c.    Other Damages Upon Competitive Activities: In addition to the suspension of severance pay upon the Executive’s engaging in Competitive Activities as provided above, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Executive agrees that (i) the Employer and its affiliates will be irreparably injured in the event of such Competitive Activities; (ii) the Executive will repay to the

Employer 75% of the total amount of severance pay benefits received by the Executive under this Agreement; provided that the Executive may retain severance pay benefits equal to the Release Consideration (whether such payments were received prior or subsequent to such Competitive Activities), together with interest from the dates of such payments to the date reimbursement is made at the rate per annum equal to the prime rate of interest charged by the bank designated by Employer plus 5% or, if lower, the maximum rate permitted by law, (iii) because monetary damages will not be an adequate remedy for any such Competitive Activities, the Employer and its affiliates also will be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy which they may have, in the event of such Competitive Activities; and (iv) the existence of any unrelated claims which the Executive may have against the Employer or any of its affiliates, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, will not be a defense to the enforcement by the Employer or its affiliates of any of their rights under this paragraph. The covenants of the Executive contained in this paragraph are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any obligations which the Executive may have with respect to the subject matter of this paragraph, whether by contract, as a matter of law or otherwise, and such covenants and their enforceability will survive any termination of the employment of the Executive for any reason and any investigation made with respect to the Competitive Activities by the Employer or any of its affiliates.

d.    Agreement to Not Solicit and to Keep Information Confidential: The Executive agrees that, during his or her employment with the Employer or any member of the Starz Group and during the Severance Period, the Executive will not:

i.    solicit or divert any business or any customer from any Starz Group member or assist any person in doing so or attempting to do so, or cause or seek to cause any person to refrain from dealing or doing business with any member of the Starz Group or assists any person in doing so or attempting to do so;

ii.    solicit or induce, directly or indirectly, or cause or authorize others to solicit or induce, directly or indirectly, any person employed by any member of the Starz Group to leave such employment with the Starz Group member; and

iii.    disclose or furnish to, or use for the benefit of, any other person, firm or corporation any Confidential Information, except in the course of the proper performance of the Executive’s employment duties or as required by law (in which event the Executive shall give prior written notice to the Employer and shall cooperate with the Employer in complying with such legal requirements),

and the Executive agrees that (A) the Employer and its affiliates will be irreparably injured in the event of a breach of the provisions of this paragraph; (B) because monetary damages will not be an adequate remedy for any such breach, the Employer and its affiliates will be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy which they may have, in the event of such a breach of the provisions of this paragraph; and (C) the existence of any unrelated claims which the Executive may have against the Employer or any of its affiliates, whether under this Agreement or otherwise, will not be a defense to the enforcement by the Employer or its affiliates of any of their rights under this paragraph.

e.    Transfer of Duties: The Executive must cooperate with the orderly transfer of his or her duties as requested by the Employer.

f.    Return of Property: The Executive must return all Employer and Starz Group property by a date specified by the Employer.

g.    Notification of Other Employment: The Executive must notify the Employer in writing immediately upon becoming employed by any employer in any capacity during the Severance Period.

Section 3.    Application of Code Section 409A to Severance Pay: To the extent that Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”) applies to any payment of severance under this Agreement, the following will apply:

a.    Any payable that is triggered upon the Executive’s termination of employment shall be paid only if such termination of employment constitutes a “separation from service” under Section 409A;

b.    For purposes of Section 409A, the Executive’s right to receive installment payments of any severance amount shall be treated as a right to receive a series of separate and distinct payments.

c.    In no event will the Employer or its affiliates be liable for any additional tax, interest or penalties that may be imposed on the Executive under Section 409A or any damages for failing to comply with Section 409A.

d.    In the event that the Executive is deemed on the date of termination to be a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A, then with regard to any payment that is subject to Section 409A, such payment shall be delayed until the earlier of (A) the first business day of the seventh calendar month following such termination of employment, or (B) the Executive’s death. Any payments delayed by reason of the prior sentence shall be paid in a single lump sum, without interest thereon, on the date indicated by the previous sentence and any remaining payments due under this Agreement shall be paid as otherwise provided herein.

Section 4.    Miscellaneous:

a.    Amendment and Termination of Agreement. This Agreement may be amended or terminated only by written action signed by the Executive and the Employer; provided, however, that the Employer may assign this Agreement to any member of the Starz Group, or any successor to any member of the Starz Group, without the consent of the Executive.

b.    Ineligibility for Other Severance Plans. The Executive acknowledges and agrees that he or she is not eligible to participate in, or to receive any benefits under, the Starz Severance Plan for Employees, the Starz Severance Plan for Executives, or any successor plan to such plans.

c.    No Additional Rights Created. The terms and conditions of the Executive’s employment with the Employer (or any affiliate) may not be modified or in any way affected by this Agreement.

d.    Records. The records of the Employer with respect to the determination of eligibility, employment history, Base Pay, absences, and all other relevant matters shall be conclusive for all purposes of this Agreement.

e.    Construction. The laws of the State of [Colorado/California] will apply and any action brought under this Agreement shall be brought in the State of [Colorado/California].

f.    Return of Amounts Paid in Error. Upon a determination by the Employer that amounts have been paid under this Agreement to the Executive or other individual in error, or amounts have been paid to any individual not entitled to payment under the terms of this Agreement, the Executive or other individual receiving such incorrect payments will repay such amounts to the Employer immediately upon notice of such error, and the Employer will have the right to pursue such repayment to the fullest extent of the law.

g.    Severability Provisions. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application of such provision to any person or in any circumstance, is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable for any reason, such provision may be modified or severed from this Agreement to the extent necessary to make such provision unenforceable against such person or in such circumstance. Neither the unenforceability of such provision nor the modification or severance of such provision will affect (i) the enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement or (ii) the enforceability of such provision against any person or in any circumstance other than those against or in which such provision is found to be unenforceable.

Section 5.    Arbitration:

a.    Application of Section. Other than any action to obtain injunctive relief relating to the matters set forth in Section 1 of this Agreement, if any controversy, claim or dispute arises out of or in any way relates to this Agreement, the alleged breach thereof, Executive’s employment with the Employer or termination therefrom, including, without limitation, any and all claims for employment discrimination or harassment, civil tort and any other employment laws, excepting only claims that may not, by statute, be arbitrated, both Executive and the Employer (and its members, managers, officers, employees or agents) agree to submit any such dispute exclusively to binding arbitration. Both Executive and the Employer acknowledge that they are relinquishing their right to a jury trial in civil court. The Executive and the Employer agree that arbitration is the exclusive remedy for all disputes arising out of or related to Executive’s employment with the Employer.

b.    Arbitration. The arbitration shall be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act and shall be administered by JAMS in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS then in effect and subject to JAMS Policy on Employment Arbitration Minimum Standards, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Arbitration shall be commenced and heard in the [Denver, Colorado/Los Angeles, California] metropolitan area. Only one arbitrator shall preside over the proceedings, who shall be selected by agreement of the parties from a list of five or more qualified arbitrators provided by the arbitration tribunal, or if the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within ten business days following receipt of such list, the arbitration tribunal shall select the arbitrator. The arbitrator shall apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of [Colorado/California] or federal law, or both, as applicable to the claim(s) asserted. In any arbitration, the burden of proof shall be allocated as provided by applicable law. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award any and all legal and equitable relief authorized by the law applicable to the claim(s) being asserted in the arbitration, as if the claim(s) were brought in a federal or state court of law. Either party may bring an action in court to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Discovery, such as depositions or document requests, shall be available to the Employer and Executive as though the dispute were pending in federal court. The arbitrator shall have the ability to rule on pre-hearing motions as though the matter were in a federal court, including the ability to rule on a motion for summary judgment.

c.    Fees. If permitted by applicable law, the fees of the arbitrator and any other fees for the administration of the arbitration that would not normally be incurred if the action were brought in a court of law (e.g., filing fees, room rental fees, etc.) shall be shared equally by the parties. If the foregoing is not permitted by applicable law, the fees of the arbitrator and any other fees for the administration of the arbitration that would not normally be incurred if the action were brought in a court of law (e.g., filing fees, room rental fees, etc.) shall be paid by the Employer, provided that Executive shall be required to pay the amount of filing fees equal to that which Executive would be required to pay to file an action in [Colorado/California] state court. Each party shall pay its own attorneys’ fees and other costs incurred in connection with the arbitration, unless the relief authorized by law allows

otherwise and the arbitrator determines that attorneys’ fees shall be paid in a different manner. The arbitrator must provide a written decision that is subject to limited judicial review consistent with applicable law. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of law, that part may be severed or reformed so as to make the balance of this arbitration provision enforceable.
