proxy and prior to the termination of this proxy and to execute any and all
written consents of shareholders of such corporation(s) executed on or after
the date of the giving of this proxy and prior to the termination of this
proxy, with the same effect as if Grantor had personally attended the
meetings or had personally voted its shares or had personally signed the
written consents; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Agent as proxyholder shall have
rights hereunder only upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default and subject to Section 16(j) hereof. Grantor hereby

will not, without the Agent's prior written consent, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, (a) enter into any copyright license
agreements except license agreements entered into in the ordinary course of
its business consistent with past practices and containing such additional
provisions to protect the Lenders' interest hereunder as the Agent may from
time to time reasonably request or (b) take any action, or permit any action
to be taken by others, including, without limitation, licensees, or fail to
take any action, which would customarily be taken by a Person in the same
business and in similar circumstances as the Grantor, which could in any
respect reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
-12-
(iii) DUTIES OF GRANTOR. Grantor shall have the duty to: (i) prosecute
diligently any copyright application included in the Copyrights, (ii) upon
the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the

deem appropriate if the failure to do so could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect, (iii) place notices of copyright on all
copyrightable property produced or owned by Grantor embodying the Copyrights
and use diligent reasonable efforts to have its licensees do the same and

Grantor's rights in the Copyrights that are or shall be necessary in the

reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Any expenses
incurred in connection with the foregoing shall be borne by Grantor. Neither
the Agent nor the Lenders shall have any duty with respect to the Copyrights
other than to act lawfully and without gross negligence or willful
misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, neither the
Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any obligation to take any steps
necessary to preserve rights in the Copyrights against any other parties, but
the Agent may do so at its option upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, and all reasonable expenses incurred in
connection therewith shall be for the sole account of Grantor and shall be
added to the Obligations.
x. PATENTS AND MARKS.
(i) ROYALTIES. Grantor hereby agrees that any rights granted hereunder
to the Lenders with respect to Patents and Marks shall be applicable to all
territories in which the Grantor has the right to use such Patents and Marks,
from time to time, and without any liability for royalties or other related
charges from the Lenders to Grantor.
(ii) RESTRICTIONS ON FUTURE AGREEMENTS. Grantor will not, without the
Agent's prior written consent, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld
or delayed, abandon any Patent or Mark in which Grantor now owns or hereafter
acquires any rights or interests if such abandonment could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or enter into any agreement,
including, without limitation, any license agreement, which is inconsistent
with Grantor's obligations under this Agreement, if such actions could
reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and Grantor further
agrees that it will not take any action, or permit any action to be taken by
others subject to its control, including licensees, or fail to take any
action which would customarily be taken by a Person in the same
-13-
business and in similar circumstances as the Grantor, which could reasonably
be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
(iii) DUTIES OF GRANTOR. Grantor shall have the duty to (i) prosecute
diligently any patent application or trademark application pending as of the
date hereof or thereafter until the Obligations shall have been indefeasibly
paid in full, no Commitment remains outstanding and no Letter of Credit
remains outstanding, (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuance of
an Event of Default, make application on unpatented but patentable inventions
owned by the Grantor and on Marks, as the case may be, as the Managing Agents
reasonably deem appropriate, (iii) file and prosecute opposition and
cancellation proceedings if the failure to do so could reasonably be expected
to have a Material Adverse Effect and (iv) take all reasonable action
necessary in Grantor's reasonable business judgment consistent with past
practices to preserve and maintain all rights in patent applications of the
Patents and in applications for registrations of the Marks unless the failure
so to do could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Any expenses incurred in connection with such applications shall be borne by
Grantor. Grantor shall not abandon any right to file a Patent application or
Mark application without the consent of the Agent, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed, if such abandonment could reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Grantor shall give proper
statutory notice in connection with its use of each of the Marks to the
extent necessary for the protection of each of the Marks. Grantor shall
notify the Agent of any suits it commences to enforce the Patents and Marks
and shall provide the Agent with copies of any documents reasonably requested
by the Agent relating to such suits.

valid, continuing and perfected first-priority (except for any Liens or
security interests permitted under Section 6.3 of the Credit Agreement
which have priority by operation of law security interest in and lien on
such Registered Material Marks, securing the payment of the Obligations.
Subject to the foregoing, all other actions necessary or reasonably

regulation or ordinance or any Requirement of Law applicable to Grantor,
nor used in any way that will void or impair any insurance required to be
carried in connection therewith.
(c) Grantor will keep the Collateral in reasonably good repair,
working order and operating condition (normal wear and tear excluded),

replacements, additions and improvements thereto and, as appropriate and

by this Agreement, including the use of the Grantor's best efforts to
assist in obtaining the approval of the FCC for any action or transaction
contemplated by this Agreement for which such approval is required by law.
13. AGENT'S RIGHTS REGARDING COLLATERAL. At any time and from time
to time, the Agent (for the benefit of Secured Party) may, to the extent
necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but the Agent
shall not be obligated to: (a) (whether or not a Default has occurred)
itself or through its representatives, at its own expense, upon
reasonable notice and at such reasonable times during usual business
hours, visit and inspect any of the Grantor's properties and examine and
make abstracts from any of its books and records at any reasonable time
and as often as may reasonably be desired and discuss the business,
operations, properties and financial and other condition of the Grantor
and its Subsidiaries with officers and employees of the Grantor and its
Subsidiaries and with its Accountants (as long as a member of senior
management of the Grantor is present during such discussion) or (b) if
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at the expense of
the Grantor, perform any obligation of Grantor under this Agreement. At
any time and from time to time, at the expense of Grantor, the Agent
(for the benefit of Secured Party) may, to the extent necessary or
desirable to protect the security hereunder, but the Agent shall not be
obligated to: (i) notify obligors on the Collateral that the Collateral
has been assigned as security to the Agent for the benefit of Secured
Party; (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, at
any time and from time to time request from obligors on the Collateral,
in the name of Grantor or in the name of Secured Party, information
-19-
concerning the Collateral and the amounts owing thereon; and (iii) after an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, direct obligors under the
contracts included in the Collateral to which Grantor is party to direct
their performance to the Agent or the Lenders. Grantor shall keep proper
books and records and accounts in which full, true and correct entries in
conformity with GAAP and all Requirements of Law shall be made of all
material dealings and transactions pertaining to the Collateral. The Agent
shall at all reasonable times on reasonable notice have full access to and
the right to audit any and all of Grantor's books and records pertaining to
the Collateral, and to confirm and verify the value of the Collateral.
Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any duty or obligation
whatsoever to take any action to preserve any rights of or against any prior
or other parties in connection with the Collateral, to exercise any voting
rights or managerial rights with respect to any Collateral or to make or give
any presentments for payment, demands for performance, notices of
non-performance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor or notices
of any other nature whatsoever in connection with the Collateral or the
Obligations. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any duty or
obligation whatsoever to take any action to protect or preserve the
Collateral or any rights of Grantor therein, or to make collections or
enforce payment thereon, or to participate in any foreclosure or other
proceeding in connection therewith. Nothing contained herein or in any
Consent shall constitute an assumption by the Lenders of any of Grantor's
obligations under the contracts assigned hereunder unless the Agent shall
have given written notice to the counterparty to such assigned contract of
the Lenders' intention to assume such contract. Grantor shall continue to be
liable for performance of its obligations under such contracts.
14. COLLECTIONS ON THE COLLATERAL. Except as provided to the contrary
in the Credit Agreement, Grantor shall have the right to use and to continue
to make collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of all of the
Collateral in the ordinary course of business so long as no Event of Default
shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, at the option of the Agent, Xxxxxxx's
right to make collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of the
Collateral and to use or dispose of such collections and proceeds shall
terminate, and any and all dividends, proceeds and collections, including all
partial or total prepayments, then held or thereafter received on or on
account of the Collateral will be held or received by Grantor in trust for
Secured Party and immediately delivered in kind to the Agent (duly endorsed
to the Agent, if required), to be applied to the Obligations or held as
Collateral, as the Agent shall elect. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have the right at all
times to receive, receipt for, endorse, assign, deposit and deliver, in the
name of the Agent or the Lenders or
-20-
in the name of Grantor, any and all checks, notes, drafts and other
instruments for the payment of money constituting proceeds of or otherwise
relating to the Collateral; and Grantor hereby authorizes the Agent to affix,
by facsimile signature or otherwise, the general or special endorsement of
Grantor, in such manner as the Agent shall deem advisable, to any such
instrument in the event the same has been delivered to or obtained by the
Agent without appropriate endorsement, and the Agent and any collecting bank
are hereby authorized to consider such endorsement to be a sufficient, valid
and effective endorsement by Grantor, to the same extent as though it were
manually executed by the duly authorized representative of Grantor,
regardless of by whom or under what circumstances or by what authority such
endorsement actually is affixed, without duty of inquiry or responsibility as
to such matters, and Grantor hereby expressly waives demand, presentment,
protest and notice of protest or dishonor and all other notices of every kind
and nature with respect to any such instrument.
15. POSSESSION OF COLLATERAL BY AGENT. All the Collateral now,
heretofore or hereafter delivered to the Agent shall be held by the Agent in
its possession, custody and control. Any or all of the Collateral delivered
to the Agent constituting cash or cash equivalents shall, prior to the
occurrence of any Event of Default, be held in an interest-bearing account
with one or more of the Lenders, and shall be, upon Xxxxxxx's request,
invested in investments permitted by Section 6.7(b) of the Credit Agreement.
The Grantor shall be permitted to withdraw any of such Collateral from time
to time, PROVIDED that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and
Grantor has not received written notice from the Agent prohibiting such
withdrawal. Nothing herein shall obligate Agent to obtain any particular
return thereon. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event
of Default, whenever any of the Collateral is in the Agent's possession,
custody or control, the Agent may use, operate and consume the Collateral,
whether for the purpose of preserving and/or protecting the Collateral, or
for the purpose of performing any of Grantor's obligations with respect
thereto, or otherwise, and, subject to the terms of Section 9.7 of the Credit
Agreement, any or all of the Collateral delivered to the Agent constituting
cash or cash equivalents shall be applied by the Agent to payment of the
Obligations to the extent permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement or
otherwise held as Collateral as the Agent shall elect. The Agent may at any
time deliver or redeliver the Collateral or any part thereof to Grantor, and
the receipt of any of the same by Grantor shall be complete and full
acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and the Agent thereafter shall
be discharged from any liability or responsibility arising after such
delivery to Grantor. So long as the Agent exercises reasonable care with
respect to any Collateral in its possession, custody or control, neither the
Agent nor the Lenders shall have any liability for any loss of or damage to
any Collateral, and in no event shall the Agent or
-21-
the Lenders have liability for any diminution in value of Collateral
occasioned by economic or market conditions or events, absent the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or any of the Lenders. The
Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care within the meaning of
the preceding sentence if the Collateral in the possession, custody or
control of the Agent is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which
the Agent accords similar property for its own account, it being understood
that neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall have any responsibility for (a)
ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges,
maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or
not the Agent or any Lender has or is deemed to have knowledge of such
matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any
Person with respect to any Collateral.
16. REMEDIES.
(i) RIGHTS UPON EVENT OF DEFAULT. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor shall be in default hereunder and
the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Party shall have, in any
jurisdiction where enforcement is sought, in addition to all other rights and
remedies that the Agent on behalf of Secured Party may have under this
Agreement and under applicable laws or in equity, all rights and remedies of
a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in any such
jurisdiction in effect at that time, and in addition the following rights and
remedies, all of which may be exercised with or without further notice to
Grantor except such notice as may be specifically required by applicable law:
(a) to foreclose the Liens and security interests created hereunder or under
any other Loan Document by any available judicial procedure or without
judicial process; (b) to enter any premises where any Collateral may be
located for the purpose of securing, protecting, inventorying, appraising,
inspecting, repairing, preserving, storing, preparing, processing, taking
possession of or removing the same; (c) to sell, assign, lease or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral or any part thereof, either at public or private
sale or at any broker's board, in lot or in bulk, for cash, on credit or
otherwise, with or without representations or warranties and upon such terms
as shall be commercially reasonable; (d) to notify obligors on the Collateral
that the Collateral has been assigned to the Agent for the benefit of Secured
Party and that all payments thereon, or performance with respect thereto, are
to be made directly and exclusively to the Agent for the account of Secured
Party; (e) to collect by legal proceedings or otherwise all dividends,
distributions, interest, principal or other sums now or hereafter payable
upon or on account of the Collateral; (f) to enter into any extension,
reorganization, disposition, merger or consolidation agreement, or any other
agreement relating to or affecting the Collateral, and in connection
therewith the Agent may deposit or surrender control of the Collateral and/or
accept other property in exchange for the Collateral as the Agent reasonably
deems
-22-
appropriate and is commercially reasonable; (g) to settle, compromise or
release, on terms acceptable to the Managing Agents, in whole or in part, any
amounts owing on the Collateral and/or any disputes with respect thereto; (h)
to extend the time of payment, make allowances and adjustments and issue
credits in connection with the Collateral in the name of the Agent for the
benefit of Secured Party or in the name of Grantor; (i) to enforce payment
and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any or all of the
Collateral and take or bring, in the name of Secured Party or in the name of
Grantor, any and all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed necessary or
reasonably desirable by the Managing Agents to effect collection of or to
realize upon the Collateral, including any judicial or nonjudicial
foreclosure thereof or thereon, and Grantor specifically consents to any
nonjudicial foreclosure of any or all of the Collateral or any other action
taken by the Lenders which may release any obligor from personal liability on
any of the Collateral, and Grantor waives, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, any right to receive notice of any public or private judicial
or nonjudicial sale or foreclosure of any security or any of the Collateral,
and any money or other property received by the Agent in exchange for or on
account of the Collateral, whether representing collections or proceeds of
Collateral, and whether resulting from voluntary payments or foreclosure
proceedings or other legal action taken by Agent or Grantor may be applied by
the Agent, without notice to Grantor, to the Obligations in such order and
manner as the Managing Agents in their sole discretion shall determine; (j)
to insure, protect and preserve the Collateral; (k) to exercise all rights,
remedies, powers or privileges provided under any of the Loan Documents; and
(l) to remove, from any premises where the same may be located, the
Collateral and any and all documents, instruments, files and records, and any
receptacles and cabinets containing the same, relating to the Collateral, and
the Agent may, at the cost and expense of Grantor, use such of its supplies,
equipment, facilities and space at its places of business as may be necessary
or appropriate to properly administer, process, store, control, prepare for
sale or disposition and/or sell or dispose of the Collateral or to properly
administer and control the handling of collections and realizations thereon,
and the Agent shall be deemed to have a rent-free tenancy of any premises of
Grantor for such purposes and for such periods of time as reasonably required
by the Agent. Grantor will, at the Agent's request, assemble the Collateral
and make it available to the Agent at places which the Agent may designate,
whether at the premises of Grantor or elsewhere, and will make available to
the Agent, free of cost, all premises, equipment and facilities of Grantor
for the purpose of the Agent's taking possession of the Collateral or storing
the same or removing or putting the Collateral in salable form or selling or
disposing of the same.
Nothing herein contained shall be construed to give the Agent, the
Managing Agents or the Lenders or any purchaser of
-23-
the Collateral the right to operate any of the Stations without the prior
consent of the FCC, to the extent required by law or the terms of any Media
License.
(ii) POSSESSION BY AGENT. Upon the occurrence and during the
continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent also shall have the right,
without notice or demand, either in person, by agent or by a receiver to be
appointed by a court in accordance with the provisions of applicable law (and
Grantor hereby expressly consents, to the fullest extent permitted by
applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of
Default to the appointment of such a receiver), and, to the extent permitted
by applicable law, without regard to the adequacy of any security for the
Obligations, to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof and to
collect and receive the rents, issues, profits, income and proceeds thereof.
The taking possession of the Collateral by the Agent shall not cure or waive
any Event of Default or notice thereof or invalidate any act done pursuant to
such notice. The rights, remedies and powers of any receiver appointed by a
court shall be as ordered by said court.
(iii)SALE OF COLLATERAL. Any public or private sale or other
disposition of the Collateral may be held at any office of Agent, or at
Grantor's place of business, or at any other place permitted by applicable
law, and without the necessity of the Collateral's being within the view of
prospective purchasers. The Agent may direct the order and manner of sale of
the Collateral, or portions thereof, as it in its sole and absolute
discretion may determine provided such sale is commercially reasonable, and
Grantor expressly waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any
right to direct the order and manner of sale of any Collateral. The Agent or
any Person acting on the Agent's behalf may bid and purchase at any such sale
or other disposition. In addition to the other rights of the Agent and the
Lenders hereunder, Grantor hereby grants to the Agent and the Lenders a
license or other right to use, without charge, Grantor's labels, copyrights,
patents, rights of use of any name, trade names, trademarks and advertising
matter, or any property of a similar nature, including, without limitation,
the Copyrights, the Patents and the Marks in advertising for sale and selling
any Collateral.
(iv) NOTICE OF SALE. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens
to decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized
market, the Agent will give Grantor reasonable notice of the time and place
of any public sale thereof or of the time on or after which any private sale
thereof is to be made. The requirement of reasonable notice conclusively
shall be met if such notice is mailed, certified mail, postage prepaid, to
Grantor at its address set forth on the signature page hereto or delivered or
otherwise sent to Grantor, at least five (5) days before the date of the
sale. Grantor expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by
-24-
applicable law, any right to receive notice of any public or private sale of
any Collateral or other security for the Obligations except as expressly
provided for in this paragraph. The Agent shall not be obligated to make any
sale of the Collateral if it shall determine not to do so regardless of the
fact that notice of sale of the Collateral may have been given. The Agent
may, without notice or publication, except as required by applicable law,
adjourn the sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place
fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice (except as required
by applicable law), be made at the time and place to which the same was so
adjourned.
(v) PRIVATE SALES. With respect to any Collateral consisting of
securities, partnership interests, joint venture interests or the like, and
whether or not any of such Collateral has been effectively registered under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other applicable laws, the Agent
may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell all or any part of such
Collateral at private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the
Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order that the sale may be lawfully
conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Without limiting the
foregoing, the Agent may (i) approach and negotiate with a limited number of
potential purchasers, and (ii) restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers
to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing such
Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the
distribution or resale thereof. In the event that any such Collateral is
sold at private sale, Grantor agrees to the extent permitted by applicable
law that if such Collateral is sold for a price which is commercially
reasonable, then (A) Grantor shall not be entitled to a credit against the
Obligations in an amount in excess of the purchase price, and (B) the Lenders
shall not incur any liability or responsibility to Grantor in connection
therewith, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price
might have been realized at a public sale. Grantor recognizes that a ready
market may not exist for such Collateral if it is not regularly traded on a
recognized securities exchange, and that a sale by the Agent of any such
Collateral for an amount substantially less than a pro rata share of the fair
market value of the issuer's assets minus liabilities may be commercially
reasonable in view of the difficulties that may be encountered in attempting
to sell a large amount of such Collateral or Collateral that is privately
traded.
(vi) TITLE OF PURCHASERS. Upon consummation of any sale of Collateral
hereunder, the Agent on behalf of Secured Party shall have the right to
assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the
Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the
Collateral so sold absolutely free from any claim or right upon the part of
Grantor or any other Person claiming through Grantor, and Grantor hereby
waives (to the extent permitted by applicable laws) all rights
-25-
of redemption, stay and appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the
future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter
enacted. If the sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit
or for future delivery, the Agent shall not be required to apply any portion
of the sale price to the Obligations until such amount actually is received
by the Agent, and any Collateral so sold may be retained by the Agent until
the sale price is paid in full by the purchaser or purchasers thereof.
Secured Party shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or
purchasers shall fail to pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of any
such failure, the Collateral may be sold again.
(vii) DISPOSITION OF PROCEEDS OF SALE. The proceeds resulting from the
collection, liquidation, sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall be
applied, FIRST, to the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable
attorneys' fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for
sale, selling, collecting and liquidating the Collateral, and the like;
SECOND, to the satisfaction of all Obligations; and THIRD, any surplus
remaining after the satisfaction of all Obligations, provided no Commitment
exists and no Letter of Credit remains outstanding, to be paid over to
Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus.
(viii) CERTAIN WAIVERS. To the extent permitted by applicable law,
Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands against the Agent and the
Lenders arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral,
or any part or parts thereof, except to the extent any such claims, damages
and awards arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the
Agent or the Lenders.
(ix) REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The rights and remedies provided under this
Agreement are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are
not exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided by law or equity.
(x) COMPLIANCE WITH COMMUNICATIONS ACT AND FCC RULES AND REGULATIONS.
(i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any
foreclosure on, sale, transfer or other disposition of, or the exercise of
any right to vote or consent with respect to, any of the Collateral as
provided herein or any other action taken or proposed to be taken by the
Agent hereunder which would affect the operational, voting or other control
of any entity holding a Media License shall be made in accordance with the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, the terms of each Media License,
and any applicable rules and regulations of the FCC, including, to the
extent applicable under rules and regulations of the FCC in effect at the
time of a Default, any requirement that there be a public or private sale.
-26-
(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this
Agreement, or in the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in any
other related instrument, the Agent shall not, without first obtaining any
consent or approval of the FCC, take any action pursuant to this Agreement
which would constitute or result in any change of control of a Subsidiary
holding a Media License if any such change in control would require, under
then existing law, the prior approval of the FCC.
(iii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Grantor shall take any action which the Agent may request in the
exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement in order to
transfer and assign to the Agent or to one or more third parties as the
Agent may designate, or to a combination of the foregoing, the Collateral
for the purposes of a public or private sale. To enforce the provisions of
this Section 16, the Agent is empowered to request, and the Grantor agrees
to authorize, the appointment of a receiver or trustee from any court of
competent jurisdiction. Such receiver or trustee shall be instructed to
seek from the FCC (and any other Governmental Authority, if required) its
consent to an involuntary transfer of control or assignment of any Media
License or of any entity whose stock, partnership interests or other
securities are subject to this Agreement, for the purpose of seeking a bona
fide purchaser to whom such Media License or control of such entity
ultimately will be transferred or assigned in connection with a public or
private sale. The Grantor hereby agrees to authorize (including Xxxxxxx's
execution of any necessary or appropriate applications or other
instruments) such an involuntary transfer of control or assignment upon the
request of the receiver or trustee so appointed; and, if the Grantor's
approval is required by the court and the Grantor shall refuse to authorize
such transfer or assignment, then, to the extent permitted by the
Communications Act and the rules and regulations of the FCC in effect at
such time and provided that the Grantor has been given 2 Business Days'
prior written notice telecopied to its telecopier number set forth on the
signature page hereof and the Grantor has not responded by executing any
such applications or other instruments, the clerk of the court may execute
in the place of Grantor any application or other instrument necessary or
appropriate for the obtaining of such consent. Upon the occurrence and
during the continuance of an Event of Default, Grantor shall further use
its best efforts to assist in obtaining the approval of the FCC (and that
required by any other Governmental Authority) for any action or transaction
contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, the
preparation, execution and filing with the FCC of the assignor's or
transferor's portion of any application or applications for consent to the
assignment of any Media License or transfer of control of any entity
holding or
-27-
controlling any Media License as may be necessary or appropriate
under the FCC's rules and regulations for approval of the transfer or
assignment of any portion of the Collateral or any Media License. Xxxxxxx
further agrees that, because of the unique nature of its undertaking in
this Section 16, the same may be specifically enforced, and it hereby
waives, and agrees to waive, any claim or defense that the Agent, the
Managing Agents or the Lenders would have an adequate remedy at law for the
breach of this undertaking and any requirement for the posting of bond or
other security. This Section 16 shall not be deemed to limit any other
rights of the Agent, the Managing Agents and the Lenders available under
applicable law and consistent with the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended, and the applicable rules and regulations of the FCC.
(xi) NOTICE. The Agent shall use reasonable efforts to give the
Grantor prior written notice of the exercise of any remedy provided for
herein, PROVIDED that the failure to give such notice shall not subject the
Agent or any Lender to liability and shall not affect the validity or
exercise of any remedy hereunder.
xvii. AGENT APPOINTED ATTORNEY-IN-FACT. To the full extent permitted
by applicable law, including the Communications Act and FCC regulations, and
subject to Section 16(j) hereof, Grantor hereby irrevocably appoints the
Agent as Grantor's attorney-in-fact, effective upon and during continuance of
an Event of Default, with full authority in the place and stead of Grantor,
and in the name of Grantor, or otherwise, from time to time, in the Agent's
sole and absolute discretion to do any of the following acts or things: (a) to
do all acts and things and to execute all documents necessary or advisable
to perfect and continue perfected the security interests created by this
Agreement and to preserve, maintain and protect the Collateral; (b) to do any
and every act which Grantor is obligated to do under this Agreement; (c) to
prepare, sign, file and record, in Grantor's name, any financing statement
covering the Collateral; (d) to endorse and transfer the Collateral upon
foreclosure by the Agent; (e) to grant or issue an exclusive or nonexclusive
license under the Copyrights, the Programs, the Patents or the Marks to
anyone upon foreclosure by the Agent; (f) to assign, pledge, convey or
otherwise transfer title in or dispose of the Copyrights, the Programs, the
Patents or the Marks to anyone upon foreclosure by the Agent; and (g) to file
any claims or take any action or institute any proceedings which the Agent
may reasonably deem necessary or desirable for the protection or enforcement
of any of the rights of the Lenders with respect to any of the Copyrights,
the Programs, the Patents and the Marks; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the Agent
shall be under no obligation whatsoever to take any of the foregoing actions,
and neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall have any liability or
responsibility for any act or omission (other than the Agent's or the
Lenders' own gross negligence or willful misconduct) taken with respect
-28-

all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees)
incurred or expended by the Agent in exercising any right or taking any
action under this Agreement.
xviii. COSTS AND EXPENSES. After the occurrence and during the
continuance of a Default, Xxxxxxx agrees to pay to the Agent all reasonable
costs and out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by the Agent in the enforcement
or attempted enforcement of this Agreement, whether or not an action is filed
in connection therewith, and in connection with any waiver or amendment of
any term or provision hereof. All reasonable advances, charges, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements, incurred or
paid by the Agent in exercising any right, privilege, power or remedy
conferred by this Agreement (including, without limitation, the right to
perform any Obligation of Grantor under the Loan Documents), or in the
enforcement or attempted enforcement thereof, shall be secured hereby and
shall become a part of the Obligations and shall be due and payable to the
Agent by Grantor on demand therefor.
xix. TRANSFERS AND OTHER LIENS. Grantor agrees that, except as
specifically permitted under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document,
it will not (i) sell, assign, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or
contract to sell, assign, exchange, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or
grant any option with respect to, any of the Collateral, or (ii) create or
permit to exist any Lien upon or with respect to any of the Collateral,
except for Liens in favor of the Agent for the benefit of the Lender or
otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document.
xx. OTHER AGREEMENTS. Nothing herein shall in any way modify or limit
the effect of terms or conditions set forth in any other Loan Document
executed by Grantor or any other Person in connection with the Obligations,
but each and every term and condition hereof shall be in addition thereto.
In the event of inconsistency between this Agreement and the Credit
Agreement, the Credit Agreement shall govern.
xxi. [Intentionally Omitted.]
xxii. UNDERSTANDINGS WITH RESPECT TO WAIVERS AND CONSENTS. Grantor
warrants and agrees that each of the waivers and consents set forth herein
are made with full knowledge of their significance and consequences, with the
understanding that events giving rise to any defense or right waived may
diminish, destroy or otherwise adversely affect rights which Grantor
otherwise may have against Secured Party or others, or against any
Collateral. If any of the waivers or consents herein are determined to be
unenforceable under applicable law, such
-29-
waivers and consents shall be effective to the maximum extent
permitted by law.
xxiii. INDEMNITY. Xxxxxxx agrees to indemnify the Agent and the
Lenders from and against any and all claims, losses and
liabilities growing out of or resulting from this Agreement
(including, without limitation, enforcement of this
Agreement), except to the extent such claims, losses or
liabilities result from the Agent's or the Lenders' gross
negligence or willful misconduct.
xxiv. AMENDMENTS, ETC. No amendment or waiver of any provision
of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by Grantor
herefrom (other than supplements to the Schedules hereto in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement) shall in any
event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and
made in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Credit Agreement,
and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in
the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which
given.
xxv. NOTICES. All notices and other communications provided for
hereunder shall be given in the manner set forth in Section 9.2
of the Credit Agreement, and if to the Agent, to the address set

Grantor, to the address set forth for it on the signature page
hereof.
xxvi. CONTINUING SECURITY INTEREST: TRANSFER OF NOTES;
TERMINATION. (a) This Agreement shall create a continuing
security interest in the Collateral and shall (i) remain in
full force and effect until indefeasible payment in full in
cash of the Obligations and the termination or expiration of

Agreement, any Lender may assign or otherwise transfer any

include, without limitation, a receiver, trustee or
debtor-in-possession thereof or therefor, PROVIDED THAT,
except as otherwise permitted under the Credit Agreement or
any other Loan Document, none of the rights or obligations
of the Grantor hereunder may be assigned or otherwise
transferred without the prior written consent of the
Lenders.
-30-

obligations of Grantor hereunder and all security interests
granted hereby shall be released and terminated when all
Obligations have been indefeasibly paid in full in cash and
when all Commitments and all Letters of Credit have expired
or have otherwise been terminated. Upon such release and
termination of all Obligations and such expiration or
termination of all Commitments and all Letters of Credit and
the security interest hereunder, all rights in and to the
Collateral pledged or assigned by Grantor hereunder shall
automatically revert to the Grantor, and the Agent and the
Lenders shall return any pledged Collateral in their
possession to Grantor, or to the Person or Persons legally
entitled thereto, and shall endorse, execute, deliver,
record and file all instruments and documents, and do all
other acts and things, reasonably required for the return of
the Collateral to Grantor, or to the Person or Persons
legally entitled thereto, and to evidence or document the
release of the interests of Secured Party arising under this
Agreement, all as reasonably requested by, and at the sole
expense of, Grantor.
(i) The Agent agrees that if an Asset Disposition
or other sale or disposition of any personal
property or assets constituting Collateral
permitted under the Credit Agreement occurs, the
Agent shall release the Collateral that is the
subject of such Asset Disposition or other sale or
disposition to Grantor free and clear of the Lien
and security interest under this Agreement,
PROVIDED that so long as any Obligations remain
outstanding under the Credit Agreement or any
Commitment or Letter of Credit remains
outstanding, the Agent shall have no obligation to
make such release until arrangements reasonably
satisfactory to it have been made for delivery to
it of any Net Proceeds of any Asset Disposition
required to be used to prepay the Loans pursuant
to Section 2.6(a) of the Credit Agreement.
xxviii. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED AND
CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW
YORK (WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS),

Uniform Commercial Code).
xxx. COVENANT NOT TO DILUTE INTERESTS OF SECURED PARTY IN
SECURITIES. Grantor represents, warrants and covenants to

OR ANY DOCUMENT EXECUTED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH AND FOR ANY
COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.
xxxii. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in
separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be
an original, but all of which taken together shall
constitute one and the same agreement.
xxxiii. COPIES OF CERTIFICATES, ETC. Whenever the Grantor is
required to deliver notices, certificates, opinions,

payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of
the Obligations (as defined in the Credit
Agreement) or any other amendment or waiver of, or
any consent to departure from, the Credit
Agreement or any other Loan Document;
(iii) any subordination, compromise, exchange,
release, nonperfection or liquidation of any
collateral, or any release, amendment or
waiver of, or consent to departure from, any

Agreement);
-32-
(iv) any express or implied amendment,
modification, renewal, supplement, extension or

had notice or knowledge of any of the foregoing;

the Obligations (as defined in the Credit
