CH_DOCS\35251.1 [W97]
. REMEDIES: RIGHTS UPON DEFAULT .
In addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it under this
Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and under any other
instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or relating to any of the Obligations, if any Event
of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, Agent may exercise all rights and remedies of
a secured party under the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor
expressly agrees that if any such event exists and is continuing, Agent, without demand of
performance or other demand, advertisement or notice of any kind (except the notice specified
below of time and place of public or private sale) to or upon such Grantor or any other Person
(all and each of which demands, advertisements and notices are hereby expressly waived to the
maximum extent permitted by the Code and other applicable law), may forthwith enter upon the
premises of such Grantor where any Collateral is located through self-help, without judicial
process, without first obtaining a final judgment or giving such Grantor or any other Person
notice and opportunity for a hearing on Agent = s claim or action and may collect, receive,
assemble, process, appropriate and realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and may
forthwith sell, lease, license, assign, give an option or options to purchase, or sell or otherwise
dispose of and deliver said Collateral (or contract to do so), or any part thereof, in one or more
parcels at a public or private arms-length sale or sales, at any exchange at such prices as it may
deem acceptable, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit
risk. Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales and, to the
extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase for the benefit of Agent
and Lenders, the whole or any part of said Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of
redemption, which equity of redemption each Grantor hereby releases. Such sales may be
adjourned and continued from time to time with or without notice. Agent shall have the right to
conduct such sales on any Grantor = s premises or elsewhere and shall have the right to use any
Grantor = s premises without charge for such time or times as Agent deems necessary or
advisable.
If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continued, each
Grantor further agrees, at Agent = s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to
Agent at a place or places designated by Agent which are reasonably convenient to Agent and
such Grantor, whether at such Grantor = s premises or elsewhere. Until Agent is able to effect a
sale, lease, or other disposition of Collateral, Agent shall have the right to hold or use Collateral,
or any part thereof, to the extent that it deems appropriate for the purpose of preserving
Collateral or its value or for any other purpose deemed appropriate by Agent. Agent shall have
no obligation to any Grantor to maintain or preserve the rights of such Grantor as against third
parties with respect to Collateral while Collateral is in the possession of Agent. Agent may, if it
so elects, seek the appointment of a receiver or keeper to take possession of Collateral and to
enforce any of Agent = s remedies (for the benefit of Agent and Lenders), with respect to such
appointment without prior notice or hearing as to such appointment. Agent shall apply the net
proceeds of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization or sale to the
Obligations as provided in the Credit Agreement, and only after so paying over such net
proceeds, and after the payment by Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law,
need Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Grantor. To the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law, each Grantor waives all claims, damages, and demands against Agent or any
Lender arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral except to the extent that
any such claims, damages and demands results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of Agent or such Lender as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction. Each
Grantor agrees that ten (10) days prior notice by Agent of the time and place of any public sale
or of the time after which a private sale may take place is reasonable notification of such
matters. Grantors shall remain liable for any deficiency if the proceeds of any sale or disposition
of the Collateral are insufficient to pay all Obligations, including any attorneys = fees and other
expenses incurred by Agent or any Lender to collect such deficiency.
Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, each Grantor hereby
waives presentment, demand, protest or any notice (to the maximum extent permitted by
applicable law) of any kind in connection with this Security Agreement or any Collateral.
To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on the Agent to exercise
remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is
not commercially unreasonable for the Agent, following the occurrence and during the
continuation of an Event of Default (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by
the Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in
process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third
party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other
law, to fail to obtain governmental or third party consents for the collection or disposition of
Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against
Account Debtors or other Persons obligated on Collateral or to remove Liens on or any adverse
claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other
Persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other
collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of
general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other
Persons, whether or not in the same business as the Grantor, for expressions of interest in
acquiring all or any portion of such Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers
to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature,
(viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of
the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capacity of doing so, or that
match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail
markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, such as title, possession or quiet enjoyment, (xi)
to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Agent against risks of loss, collection
or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or
disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Agent, to obtain the
services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the
Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Grantor acknowledges that
the purpose of this Section 7(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or
omissions by the Agent would not be commercially unreasonable in the Agent's exercise of
remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Agent shall not be
deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section 7(c) .
Without limitation upon the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section 7(c) shall be construed
to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on Agent that would not have been
granted or imposed by this Security Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this
Section 7(c) .
Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be required to make any demand
upon, or pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies against, any Grantor, any other
CH_DOCS\35251.1 [W97]
obligor, guarantor, pledgor or any other Person with respect to the payment of the Obligations or
to pursue or exhaust any of their rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral therefor or any
direct or indirect guarantee thereof. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be required to
marshal the Collateral or any guarantee of the Obligations or to resort to the Collateral or any
such guarantee in any particular order, and all of its and their rights hereunder or under any other
Loan Document shall be cumulative. To the extent it may lawfully do so, each Grantor
absolutely and irrevocably waives and relinquishes the benefit and advantage of, and covenants
not to assert against the Agent or any Lender, any valuation, stay, appraisement, extension,
redemption or similar laws and any and all rights or defenses it may have as a surety now or
hereafter existing which, but for this provision, might be applicable to the sale of any Collateral
made under the judgment, order or decree of any court, or privately under the power of sale

Section 7 hereof (including, without limiting the terms of Section 7 hereof, in order to take

otherwise dispose of Collateral) at such time as Agent shall be lawfully entitled to exercise such
rights and remedies following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default,

or stored and to all computer software and programs used for the compilation or printout thereof
(but subject to any limitation on such Grantor = s right to grant such licenses or sublicenses as set
forth in the terms of the licenses governing such Intellectual Property).
LIMITATION ON AGENT = S AND LENDERS = DUTY IN RESPECT

conveyance, @ or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had not been made. In
the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored or returned, the
Obligations shall be reinstated and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so
rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.
NOTICES . Except as otherwise provided herein, whenever it is provided
herein that any notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other communication
shall or may be given to or served upon any of the parties by any other party, or whenever any of
the parties desires to give and serve upon any other party any communication with respect to this
Security Agreement, each such notice, demand, request, consent, approval, declaration or other
communication shall be in writing and shall be given in the manner, and deemed received, as
provided for in the Credit Agreement.
SEVERABILITY . Whenever possible, each provision of this Security
Agreement shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but
if any provision of this Security Agreement shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable
law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity without
invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Security
Agreement. This Security Agreement is to be read, construed and applied together with the
Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents which, taken together, set forth the complete
understanding and agreement of Agent, Lenders and Grantors with respect to the matters
referred to herein and therein.
NO WAIVER; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES . Neither Agent nor any
Lender shall by any act, delay, omission or otherwise be deemed to have waived any of its rights
or remedies hereunder, and no waiver shall be valid unless in writing, signed by Agent and then
only to the extent therein set forth. A waiver by Agent of any right or remedy hereunder on any
one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to any right or remedy which Agent would
otherwise have had on any future occasion. No failure to exercise nor any delay in exercising on
the part of Agent or any Lender, any right, power or privilege hereunder, shall operate as a
waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder
preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or
privilege. The rights and remedies hereunder provided are cumulative and may be exercised
singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any rights and remedies provided by law. None
of the terms or provisions of this Security Agreement may be waived, altered, modified or
amended except by an instrument in writing, duly executed by Agent and Grantors.
LIMITATION BY LAW . All rights, remedies and powers provided in
this Security Agreement may be exercised only to the extent that the exercise thereof does not
violate any applicable provision of law, and all the provisions of this Security Agreement are
intended to be subject to all applicable mandatory provisions of law that may be controlling and
to be limited to the extent necessary so that they shall not render this Security Agreement
invalid, unenforceable, in whole or in part, or not entitled to be recorded, registered or filed
under the provisions of any applicable law.
TERMINATION OF THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT . Subject to
Section 10 hereof, this Security Agreement shall terminate upon the Termination Date.
SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS . This Security Agreement and all
obligations of Grantors hereunder shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of each
Grantor (including any debtor-in-possession on behalf of such Grantor) and shall, together with
the rights and remedies of Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, hereunder, inure to the
benefit of Agent and Lenders, all future holders of any instrument evidencing any of the
Obligations and their respective successors and assigns. No sales of participations, other sales,
assignments, transfers or other dispositions of any agreement governing or instrument
CH_DOCS\35251.1 [W97]
evidencing the Obligations or any portion thereof or interest therein shall in any manner impair
the Lien granted to Agent, for the benefit of Agent and Lenders, hereunder. No Grantor may
assign, sell, hypothecate or otherwise transfer any interest in or obligation under this Security
Agreement.
COUNTERPARTS . This Security Agreement may be authenticated in
any number of separate counterparts, each of which shall collectively and separately constitute
one agreement. This Security Agreement may be authenticated by manual signature, facsimile
or, if approved in writing by Agent, electronic means, all of which shall be equally valid.
GOVERNING LAW . EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY
PROVIDED IN ANY OF THE LOAN DOCUMENTS, IN ALL RESPECTS, INCLUDING
ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY AND PERFORMANCE, THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT AND THE OBLIGATIONS ARISING HEREUNDER SHALL BE
GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO CONTRACTS MADE AND
PERFORMED IN THAT STATE, AND ANY APPLICABLE LAWS OF THE UNITED
STATES OF AMERICA. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY CONSENTS AND AGREES THAT
THE STATE OR FEDERAL COURTS LOCATED IN NEW YORK COUNTY, CITY OF
NEW YORK, NEW YORK, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION TO HEAR AND
DETERMINE ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN GRANTORS, AGENT AND
LENDERS PERTAINING TO THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER
LOAN DOCUMENTS OR TO ANY MATTER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, PROVIDED ,
THAT AGENT, LENDERS AND GRANTORS ACKNOWLEDGE THAT ANY APPEALS
FROM THOSE COURTS MAY HAVE TO BE HEARD BY A COURT LOCATED OUTSIDE
OF NEW YORK COUNTY, AND, PROVIDED, FURTHER , NOTHING IN THIS
AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED OR OPERATE TO PRECLUDE AGENT FROM
BRINGING SUIT OR TAKING OTHER LEGAL ACTION IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION
TO REALIZE ON THE COLLATERAL OR ANY OTHER SECURITY FOR THE
OBLIGATIONS, OR TO ENFORCE A JUDGMENT OR OTHER COURT ORDER IN
FAVOR OF AGENT. EACH GRANTOR EXPRESSLY SUBMITS AND CONSENTS IN
ADVANCE TO SUCH JURISDICTION IN ANY ACTION OR SUIT COMMENCED IN ANY
SUCH COURT, AND EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT
MAY HAVE BASED UPON LACK OF PERSONAL JURISDICTION, IMPROPER VENUE
OR FORUM NON CONVENIENS AND HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE GRANTING OF
SUCH LEGAL OR EQUITABLE RELIEF AS IS DEEMED APPROPRIATE BY SUCH
COURT. EACH GRANTOR HEREBY WAIVES PERSONAL SERVICE OF THE
SUMMONS, COMPLAINT AND OTHER PROCESS ISSUED IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR
SUIT AND AGREES THAT SERVICE OF SUCH SUMMONS, COMPLAINTS AND OTHER
PROCESS MAY BE MADE BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL ADDRESSED TO
SUCH GRANTOR AT THE ADDRESS SET FORTH ON ANNEX I TO THE CREDIT
AGREEMENT AND THAT SERVICE SO MADE SHALL BE DEEMED COMPLETED
UPON THE EARLIER OF ACTUAL RECEIPT THEREOF OR THREE (3) DAYS AFTER
DEPOSIT IN THE U.S. MAILS, PROPER POSTAGE PREPAID.
WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL . BECAUSE DISPUTES ARISING IN
CONNECTION WITH COMPLEX FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ARE MOST QUICKLY
AND ECONOMICALLY RESOLVED BY AN EXPERIENCED AND EXPERT PERSON
AND THE PARTIES WISH APPLICABLE STATE AND FEDERAL LAWS TO APPLY
(RATHER THAN ARBITRATION RULES), THE PARTIES DESIRE THAT DISPUTES
ARISING HEREUNDER OR RELATING HERETO BE RESOLVED BY A JUDGE
APPLYING SUCH APPLICABLE LAWS. THEREFORE, TO ACHIEVE THE BEST
COMBINATION OF THE BENEFITS OF THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND OF
ARBITRATION, THE PARTIES HERETO WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY ACTION, SUIT OR PROCEEDING BROUGHT TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE,
WHETHER SOUNDING IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, AMONG AGENT,
LENDERS, AND GRANTORS ARISING OUT OF, CONNECTED WITH, RELATED TO,
OR INCIDENTAL TO THE RELATIONSHIP ESTABLISHED IN CONNECTION WITH,
THIS SECURITY AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS OR THE
TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO.
SECTION TITLES . The Section titles contained in this Security
Agreement are and shall be without substantive meaning or content of any kind whatsoever and
are not a part of the agreement between the parties hereto.
NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION . The parties hereto have participated
jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Security Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or
question of intent or interpretation arises, this Security Agreement shall be construed as if
drafted jointly by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring
or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Security
Agreement.
ADVICE OF COUNSEL . Each of the parties represents to each other
party hereto that it has discussed this Security Agreement and, specifically, the provisions of
Section 18 and Section 19 , with its counsel.

shall be for the benefit of Agent, individually, and Lenders, and all proceeds or payments
realized from Collateral in accordance herewith shall be applied to the Obligations in accordance
with the terms of the Credit Agreement.
GOVERNMENT APPROVAL . Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any
foreclosure on, sale, transfer or other disposition of any Collateral or any other action taken or
proposed to be taken hereunder that would affect the operational, voting, or other control of any
Grantor or affect the ownership of the FCC Licenses shall be pursuant the Communications
Laws and, if and to the extent required thereby, subject to the prior consent of the FCC and any
other applicable governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
herein, Agent and Lenders shall not take any action pursuant hereto that would constitute or
result in any assignment of the FCC Licenses or transfer of control of any Grantor if such
assignment or transfer of control would require, under then existing law (including the
Communications Laws), the prior approval of the FCC, without first obtaining such approval of
the FCC and notifying the FCC of the consummation of such assignment or transfer of control
(to the extent required to do so). Each Grantor agrees to take any action which the Agent may
request in order to obtain and enjoy the full rights and benefits granted to the Agent and Lenders
by this Agreement, including specifically, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an
Event of Default, the use of such Grantor = s best efforts to assist in obtaining any approval of
the FCC that is then required under the Communications Laws or under any other law for any
CH_DOCS\35251.1 [W97]
action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement.

this Amended and Restated Security Agreement to be executed and delivered by its duly
authorized officer as of the date first set forth above.
