(a) Cancellation of Certain CCOH Common Stock. All CCOH Common Stock that is owned by CCH or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CCH as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (each such share of CCOH Common Stock being an “Excluded Share” and collectively, the “Excluded Shares”) shall automatically be canceled and retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered in exchange therefor.

-6-

(b) Conversion of CCOH Common Stock. At the Effective Time, each share of CCOH Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the Excluded Shares) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive, subject to Section 3.02(a), one (1) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation (the “New CCOH Common Stock”) (the “Merger Consideration”). From and after the Effective Time, subject to Section 3.02(a), all of such shares of CCOH Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall no longer be outstanding and shall automatically be converted into an equal number of shares of New CCOH Common Stock, and each certificate (a “Certificate”) representing any shares of CCOH Common Stock (other than Excluded Shares) and each non-certificated share of CCOH Common Stock represented by book-entry (a “Book-Entry Share”) (other than Excluded Shares) shall thereafter only represent the right to receive the Merger Consideration upon the surrender of such Certificate or receipt of an “agent’s message” in accordance with Section 3.02. Immediately following the Effective Time, each holder of CCOH Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Excluded Shares) shall have the right to receive the same number of shares of New CCOH Common Stock represented by book-entry as the number of shares of CCOH Common Stock such holder owned immediately prior to the Effective Time.

(d) No Appraisal Rights. No dissenters’ rights or appraisal rights shall be available to the stockholders of CCOH or CCH in accordance with the DGCL.

Section 3.02 Payment for Securities; Surrender of Certificates.

(a) Procedures for Surrender.

(i) Certificates. Promptly after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation shall cause the Transfer Agent to mail to each holder of record (as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) of a Certificate whose shares of CCOH Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement: (A) a letter of transmittal in customary form reasonably acceptable to CCH and CCOH (the “Letter of Transmittal”), which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Transfer Agent, and shall otherwise be in such form and have such other provisions as CCH and CCOH may reasonably specify; and (B) instructions for effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration payable in respect thereof pursuant to the provisions of this Article III. Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Transfer Agent, and upon delivery of a Letter of Transmittal, duly executed and in proper form with respect to such Certificates, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Transfer Agent, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration in book-entry form into which such shares of CCOH Common Stock have been converted pursuant to Section 3.01(a).

(ii) Book-Entry Shares. Any holder of Book-Entry Shares whose shares of CCOH Common Stock were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration at the Effective Time pursuant to this Agreement shall not be required to deliver a Certificate or an executed Letter of Transmittal to the Transfer Agent to receive the Merger Consideration that such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to this Agreement. In lieu thereof, each such holder shall, upon receipt by the Transfer Agent of an “agent’s message” (or such other evidence, if any, of surrender as the Transfer Agent may reasonably request) be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01. Payment of the Merger Consideration with respect to Book-Entry Shares shall only be made to the Person in whose name such Book-Entry Shares are registered.

(iii) Transfer of Shares. In the event of a transfer of ownership of CCOH Common Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of CCOH, the Merger Consideration may be issued to a Person other than

-7-

the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or shall otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting the Merger Consideration pays any transfer or other similar Taxes required by reason of the payment of the Merger Consideration to a Person other than the registered holder of the Certificate so surrendered or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Surviving Corporation that such Taxes either have been paid or are not required to be paid.

(b) No Further Ownership Rights in CCOH Common Stock; Closing of Transfer Books. As of the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of CCOH shall be closed, and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of CCOH of the shares of CCOH Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than registrations of transfers to reflect, with customary settlement procedures, trades effected prior to the Effective Time. The Merger Consideration paid in accordance with the terms of this Article III shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such CCOH Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of CCOH Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such CCOH Common Stock except as otherwise provided for herein or by applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates or Book-Entry Shares are presented to the Surviving Corporation, or the Transfer Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and, subject to the procedures set forth in Section 3.02(a), exchanged as provided in this Article III, except as otherwise required by law.

(c) No Liability. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 3.02(d), none of the parties hereto nor the Surviving Corporation nor the Transfer Agent or any of their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall be liable to any holder of a share of CCOH Common Stock for Merger Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Law. If any Certificate (or affidavits of loss in lieu thereof as provided in Section 3.02(d)) shall not have been surrendered prior to the date on which the Merger Consideration represented by such Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Authority, any such Merger Consideration shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(d) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it or the Surviving Corporation with respect to such Certificate, the Transfer Agent shall issue, or pay or cause to be paid, in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, the Merger Consideration deliverable in respect thereof pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 3.03 Treatment of CCOH Equity Incentive Plans. CCH and CCOH shall each adopt resolutions and take all necessary actions (x) such that CCH shall adopt the CCOH Equity Incentive Plans and all CCOH Equity Awards as of the Effective Time and (y) to effectuate the following:

(a) Effect on CCOH Stock Options. Subject to any written agreement between the relevant holder and CCH and/or CCOH, at the Effective Time, each CCOH Stock Option (or portion thereof) that is outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, shall be converted into and shall become a New CCOH Stock Option (or an equal portion thereof); provided, however, that such conversion shall, in each case, comply with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code and Section 409A of the Code. Each New CCOH Stock Option shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the CCOH Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto provided for in the CCOH Equity Incentive Plans, in any award agreement or in such CCOH Stock Option by reason of this Agreement or the Merger). Promptly following the Effective Time, but in no event more than ten Business Days after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall issue to each holder of an outstanding CCOH Stock Option that is converted into a New CCOH Stock Option hereunder a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such CCOH Stock Option by the Surviving Corporation.

(b) Effect on CCOH Restricted Stock Units. Subject to any written agreement between the relevant holder and CCH and/or CCOH, as of the Effective Time, each CCOH Restricted Stock Unit (or portion thereof) that is outstanding as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any CCOH Restricted Stock Unit or portion thereof that becomes vested as a result of the consummation of the Merger and is settled in CCOH Common Stock that, in turn, converts into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01) shall be assumed by the Surviving Corporation and shall be converted into a New CCOH Restricted Stock Unit in accordance with this Section 3.03. Each such New CCOH Restricted Stock Unit shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the CCOH Restricted Stock Unit immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto provided for in the CCOH Equity Incentive Plans, in any award agreement or in such CCOH Restricted Stock Unit by reason of this Agreement or the Merger). As of the Effective Time, each such New CCOH Restricted Stock Unit as so assumed and converted shall represent the right to receive a corresponding number of shares of New CCOH Common Stock. Promptly following the Effective Time, but in no event more than ten Business Days after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall issue to each holder of a CCOH Restricted Stock Unit that is converted into a New CCOH Restricted Stock Unit a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such CCOH Restricted Stock Unit by the Surviving Corporation.

Subject to any written agreement between the relevant holder and CCH and/or the CCOH, as of the Effective Time, each restricted share of CCOH Class A Common Stock granted under the applicable CCOH Equity Incentive Plan (a “CCOH Restricted Stock Award”), shall be converted into the right to receive a corresponding number of restricted shares of New CCOH Common Stock (a “New CCOH Restricted Stock Award”). Each unvested converted CCOH Restricted Stock Award so assumed and converted shall continue to have, and shall be subject to, the same terms and conditions as applied to the CCOH Restricted Stock Award immediately prior to the Effective Time (but taking into account any changes thereto provided for in the applicable CCOH Equity Incentive Plan, in any award agreement or in such CCOH Stock Option by reason of this Agreement or the Merger). Promptly following the Effective Time, but in no event more than ten Business Days after the Closing Date, the Surviving Corporation shall issue to each holder of a CCOH Restricted Stock Award that is converted into a New CCOH Restricted Stock Award a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such CCOH Restricted Stock Award by the Surviving Corporation.

(d) Form S-8. As soon as practicable after the Effective Time (but in no event later than ten Business Days following the Effective Time), the Surviving Corporation shall cause to be filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 (or any successor form), if available for use by the Surviving Corporation, relating to the shares of New CCOH Common Stock issuable with respect to such New CCOH Stock Options and New CCOH Restricted Stock Units eligible for registration on Form S-8.

The Legal Opinions shall also rely upon the CCOH Tax Representation Letter, the CCH Tax Representation Letter, and the representations and warranties made under Article IV and will assume that these representations and warranties are true, correct and complete, and that CCOH and CCH, as the case may be, shall comply with the covenants set forth in this Agreement. CCOH and CCH shall cooperate with one another to facilitate the issuance of the Legal Opinions referred to in this Section 5.01. In the event that K&E is unwilling or unable to provide the K&E Legal Opinion, or WSGR is unwilling or unable to provide the WSGR Legal Opinion, then CCOH (if the K&E Legal Opinion is not being provided) shall have the right to require CCH to use reasonable best efforts to obtain, or CCH (if the WSGR Legal Opinion is not being provided), shall have the right to require CCOH to use reasonable best efforts to obtain, from a nationally recognized “Big 4” accounting firm or law firm that is reasonably acceptable to each of CCH and CCOH (a “Replacement Opinion Provider”), an opinion addressing the matters that would have been addressed by the K&E Legal Opinion or WSGR Legal Opinion, as applicable (a “Replacement Opinion”), and the delivery of such Replacement Opinion shall satisfy any condition in this Agreement that would otherwise have been satisfied by such K&E Legal Opinion or WSGR Legal Opinion, as applicable; provided, that any such Replacement Opinion shall be subject to the same requirements as the opinion it is replacing, and CCH and CCOH, as applicable, shall fully cooperate in providing the applicable accounting firm or law firm with the same information and materials, including the CCOH Tax Representation Letter or CCH Tax Representation Letter, as applicable, that would have been provided to K&E or WSGR.

Each of CCOH and CCH shall promptly notify the other upon the receipt of any comments from the SEC or any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Form S-4, and shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, provide the other with copies of all material correspondence between it and its Representatives, on one hand, and the SEC, on the other hand, and all written comments with respect to the Form S-4 received from the SEC and advise the other party of any oral comments with respect to the Form S-4 received from the SEC.

THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY AGREE THAT VENUE WOULD BE PROPER IN SUCH COURT AND HEREBY WAIVE ANY OBJECTION THAT ANY SUCH COURT IS AN IMPROPER OR INCONVENIENT FORUM FOR THE RESOLUTION OF SUCH SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING. EACH OF THE PARTIES FURTHER IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 8.02. NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT THE RIGHT OF ANY PARTY TO SERVE PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW.

Section 8.09 Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto, and their respective successors and permitted assigns; provided that no party hereto may assign its respective rights or delegate its respective obligations under this Agreement without the express prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided, further, that each party may assign its rights and delegate its obligations under this Agreement to any of its Affiliates (provided that no such assignment or delegation shall release such party from any liability or obligation under this Agreement).

Section 8.10 Specific Performance. In the event of any actual or threatened default in, or breach of, any of the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement, the party who is thereby aggrieved shall have the right to seek specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief (on an interim or permanent basis) in respect of its or their rights under this Agreement, in addition to any and all other rights and remedies at Law or in equity, and all such rights and remedies shall be cumulative. The parties agree that the remedies at Law for any breach or threatened breach, including monetary damages, may be inadequate compensation for any damage or loss and that any defense in any action, suit, arbitration or other proceeding of any nature for specific performance that a remedy at Law would be adequate is waived. Any requirements for the securing or posting of any bond with such remedy are waived by each of the parties.

Section 8.11 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereof or thereof, or the application of such provision to Persons or circumstances or in jurisdictions other than those as to which it has been held invalid or unenforceable, shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated thereby. Upon such determination, the parties shall negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon such a suitable and equitable provision to effect the original intent of the parties.

Section 8.12 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH PARTY HERETO EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THE RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY FROM THIS AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS OR THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT HEREOF, AND ANY ACTION RELATING TO OR ARISING IN ANY WAY THEREFROM SHALL BE TRIED IN A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION BY A JUDGE SITTING WITHOUT A JURY.

Section 8.13 No Recourse. This Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon or arise out of this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement, may only be made against the Persons that are expressly identified as parties hereto and no former, current or future equity holders, controlling Persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, Representatives or Affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future stockholder, controlling Person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, agent, Representative or Affiliate of any of the

Without limiting the rights of any party against the other party hereto, in no event shall either party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages for breach of this Agreement from, any Non-Recourse Party.
