This Agreement (the "Agreement"), dated as of February 13, 1995, is entered
into by and between MTV Asia LDC, Treasury Building, 8 Shenton Way, #01-01,
Republic of Singapore 0106 ("MTVA"), and Four Media Company Asia PTE Ltd., 30
Choon Guan Street, Republic of Singapore 0207 ("4MCA").
1. USE OF PREMISES, CREWS, SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT
----------------------------------------------
1.1. 4MCA agrees to furnish for the use of MTVA certain premises located
at 30 Choon Guan Street, Republic of Singapore, as listed in, and of the size
described in, SCHEDULE A attached hereto and made a part hereof (collectively,
----------
the "Premises"). At no cost to MTVA, 4MCA shall renovate the Premises in
accordance with that certain floor plan which has been provided to MTVA by 4MCA,
which floor plan is attached hereto and made a part hereof as SCHEDULE F (the
----------
"Floor Plan"). By MTVA's execution of this Agreement, MTVA shall be deemed to
have approved the Floor Plan in the form of SCHEDULE F. If either party desires
----------
to implement any material change to the Floor Plan, any such change shall only
be implemented upon the prior written approval of the other party. MTVA shall
have the right to consult with 4MCA with respect to the design, carpeting and
painting of the Premises.
1.2. 4MCA agrees to furnish for the exclusive use of MTVA certain
production, on-line editing, audio mixing, subtitling, origination and library
personnel, all as more specifically described in SCHEDULE B attached hereto and
----------
made a part hereof, and any other similar personnel that are added pursuant to
Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6 (collectively, the "Crews"). SCHEDULE B also sets
----------
forth each particular Crew position, the number of Crew members for each such
position, the work week and work hours for each Crew member, and the budgeted
total compensation for each Crew member.
1.3. 4MCA agrees to furnish certain services to enable MTVA to produce,
videotape and transmit programming to an interconnect on the terms and
conditions hereunder, including, without limitation, production studio services,
production control room services, on-line editing services, off-line editing
services, audio mixing services, graphics services, subtitling services,
origination services, videotape library services, and other services, all as
more particularly described in SCHEDULE C attached hereto and made a part hereof
----------
(collectively, the "Services"). MTVA acknowledges that the Services to be
provided hereunder shall be limited to those services which are capable of being
provided from the Premises (except for off-line editing, which shall be provided
from two edit bays located on premises leased by MTVA, for which 4MCA shall be
responsible solely for providing and maintaining certain off-line editing
equipment and shall not be responsible for off-line editing personnel), and
shall also be limited by the Equipment (as hereinafter defined) to be provided
hereunder pursuant to Paragraph 1.4.
1.4. 4MCA agrees to furnish and maintain certain equipment to enable MTVA
to produce, videotape and transmit programming to an interconnect on the terms
and conditions hereunder, as generally described in SCHEDULE C, and as more
----------
specifically detailed on an
1
item-by-item basis in SCHEDULE D attached hereto and made a part hereof
----------
(collectively, the "Equipment").
1.5. 4MCA agrees to furnish a local satellite downlink capability to the
Premises to provide access to one or more satellite transponders as requested by
MTVA, on which MTVA programming may be carried, if and only if 4MCA makes the
determination, in its sole and absolute discretion, after using all reasonable
efforts, that the following conditions are or can be reasonably satisfied:
(a) the ability to construct, operate and maintain small aperture receive-
only antenna(s) is technically feasible;
(b) the landlord on whose property the antenna is to be placed grants
permission for the placement of such antenna;
(c) 4MCA is granted the appropriate licenses (the "TVRO License") to
install and operate the downlink antenna from the Singapore Broadcasting
Authority and any other appropriate governmental licensing agencies (in which
event the term of 4MCA's services under this Paragraph 1.5 shall be co-extensive
with the term of such licenses);
(d) 4MCA and MTVA can mutually agree on a reasonable fee for such downlink
services, which fee shall be in addition to the fees described in Paragraph 6.1
hereof; and
(e) MTVA obtains all applicable licenses, as required, for the signal to be
transmitted from 4MCA's downlink antenna at the Premises to MTVA's premises and
MTVA complies with all of the material terms and conditions of such licenses
(but only if MTVA requests that the signal be transmitted to MTVA's premises).
To the extent 4MCA defaults in its obligations as set forth in this
Paragraph 1.5, such default shall not be deemed a "Default" for purposes of
Paragraph 9.1 hereof, nor shall the technical specifications set forth in
SCHEDULE H be applicable to the services which may be provided pursuant to this
- ----------
Paragraph 1.5.
1.6. In connection with the origination services to be provided by 4MCA as
described on SCHEDULE C, 4MCA shall use all reasonable efforts to implement
----------
certain systems and procedures in order to maintain the reliability of the
origination services to be provided hereunder, which systems and procedures are
described in Paragraph 7.6 of SCHEDULE C.
----------
1.7. Subject to the terms of Paragraph 1.8 hereof, MTVA shall have the
right to inspect and approve the Premises prior to the commencement of the Term
(as defined in Paragraph 2.1) to determine compliance with subparagraphs (a),
(b) and (c) of this Paragraph
2
1.7. 4MCA hereby acknowledges and agrees that MTVA shall only be obligated to
commence payments of the fees set forth in Paragraph 6 below on the Actual
Commencement Date (as defined in Paragraph 1.8(b) hereof) if and when:
(a) the Premises have been renovated in substantial compliance with the
Floor Plan;
(b) the Premises are operational for the use intended by and described in
this Agreement (except as set forth in Paragraph 1.10 hereof); and
(c) the Premises may be lawfully occupied, as determined by the appropriate
local authorities, and used for the intended purposes described herein. In
connection therewith, 4MCA shall deliver to MTVA copies of any and all
certificates or other documents it may possess evidencing the satisfaction of
this subparagraph (c), if applicable. MTVA acknowledges and agrees that,
notwithstanding 4MCA's failure to receive a Certificate of Statutory Completion
in connection with the Premises as evidence of compliance with this subparagraph
(c) as of the date 4MCA delivers the Commencement Notice (as hereinafter
defined) to MTVA, if 4MCA has received, as of such date, a Temporary Occupation
Permit which permits the Premises to be lawfully occupied and used in the manner
intended by and described in this Agreement, then 4MCA shall be deemed to have
satisfied this subparagraph (c) with respect to lawful occupancy of the
Premises.
1.8. MTVA shall determine in good faith whether the conditions set forth
in Paragraph 1.7 have been reasonably satisfied in accordance with the following
procedures:
(a) 4MCA shall notify MTVA in writing that the conditions set forth in
Paragraph 1.7 have been satisfied (the "Commencement Notice").
(b) MTVA shall have seven (7) business days from the date of its receipt of
the Commencement Notice to approve or disapprove the conditions set forth in
Paragraph 1.7. If MTVA approves the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7, MTVA
shall deliver written confirmation of such approval within the seven (7)-
business day period set forth above. If the date of such confirmation is on or
prior to April 15, 1995, then April 15, 1995 shall be the "Actual Commencement
Date" hereunder. If the date of such confirmation is after April 15, 1995, then
the date of such confirmation shall be the Actual Commencement Date hereunder.
If MTVA disapproves one or more of the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7,
MTVA shall deliver written notice of disapproval to 4MCA within such seven (7)-
business day period set forth above, specifying the particular reason(s) for
disapproval. MTVA's failure to respond in writing to the Commencement Notice
within seven (7) business days after receipt thereof shall be deemed MTVA's
approval of the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7 above and, in such event,
the Actual Commencement Date will be the later of (i) April 15, 1995 or (ii)
seven (7) business days after MTVA's receipt of the Commencement Notice.
3
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if MTVA commences to utilize a portion of the
Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment pursuant to Paragraph 1.10 hereof in
connection with any particular activity to be provided hereunder in the manner
intended by, and described in, this Agreement, then MTVA shall not use or cite
such particular activity as a basis on which to disapprove the conditions set
forth in Paragraph 1.7 (unless such portion of the Premises, Services, Crews and
Equipment that are utilized in connection with such particular activity no
longer complies with the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7).
1.9. MTVA shall have the exclusive use of all Premises and Crews described
in SCHEDULES A and B during the Regular Hours (as defined in Paragraph 4.4) with
----------- -
respect to production, on-line editing, audio mixing, subtitling and graphics
Services and at all times with respect to origination and library Services.
MTVA shall be given scheduling priority over any other 4MCA customer in
connection with the production, on-line editing, audio mixing, subtitling and
graphics Premises and Crews during Overtime Hours, Weekend Hours and Holiday
Hours (all as defined in Paragraph 4.7), in accordance with the provisions set
forth in Paragraph 4.7. The production studio and production control rooms
shall be exclusively available to MTVA, unless 4MCA obtains MTVA's consent to
use such facilities for 4MCA's other customers, which consent may be withheld by
MTVA in its sole and absolute discretion. MTVA acknowledges that 4MCA may
provide services, facilities, personnel and equipment to other customers of 4MCA
which may be similar to the Premises, Services, Crews and Equipment to be
provided to MTVA hereunder. MTVA acknowledges that such similar facilities,
services, personnel and equipment may be provided by 4MCA from the Premises.
4MCA represents and warrants that its provision of facilities, services,
personnel and equipment to such other 4MCA customers will in no way infringe
upon MTVA's rights under this Agreement or adversely affect 4MCA's obligations
hereunder.
1.10. Prior to the Actual Commencement Date and subject to the next four
sentences of this Paragraph 1.10, at MTVA's request, 4MCA may provide a portion
of the Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment in accordance with the Pre-
Commencement Fee Schedule set forth on SCHEDULE G attached hereto and made a
----------
part hereof. If the Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment to be used in
connection with any particular activity to be provided hereunder (for example,
origination) satisfy the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7 for use in the
manner intended by, and described in, this Agreement prior to the Actual
Commencement Date, then, if MTVA requests the commencement of such particular
activity, 4MCA shall be obligated to commence the provision of such Premises,
Crews, Services and Equipment to MTVA and MTVA shall be obligated to commence
paying a prorated portion of the Monthly Base Fee (as defined in Paragraph
6.1(a)(ii)) for such Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment, in accordance with
the Pre-Commencement Fee Schedule. The date on which 4MCA commences its
provision of the Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment in connection with any
particular activity pursuant to the prior sentence shall be referred to as the
"Pre-Commencement Date". Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Premises, Crews,
Services and Equipment to be used in connection with any particular activity to
be provided hereunder do not
4
fully satisfy the conditions set forth in Paragraph 1.7 prior to the Actual
Commencement Date, but 4MCA and MTVA agree that MTVA shall nevertheless commence
utilizing such Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment in connection with such
particular activity in a manner other than as specifically intended for use by
and described in this Agreement, then (a) MTVA shall not be obligated to
commence payment in accordance with the Pre-Commencement Fee Schedule, but
rather shall pay to 4MCA an amount equal to 4MCA's actual documented costs
incurred in connection with the provision of such Premises, Crews, Services and
Equipment (but in no instance shall the amount be greater than the amount
payable in accordance with SCHEDULE G), and (b) MTVA shall not be obligated
----------
to pay for the full complement of Crew members in connection with such
particular activity, but rather shall be obligated to pay 4MCA's actual
documented costs in connection with those Crew members who are actually being
utilized during such pre-commencement period (but in no instance shall the
amount be greater than the amount payable in accordance with SCHEDULE G).
----------
4MCA's obligation to provide the Premises, Crews, Services and Equipment
pursuant to this Paragraph 1.10 shall at all times take priority over any
potentially conflicting arrangement or relationship with any other 4MCA customer
or other party.
2. TERM; CANCELLATION OPTION; CANCELLATION FEE; AMELIORATION MEASURES
------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1. The term of this Agreement (the "Term") shall commence on the Actual
Commencement Date and shall continue through and including April 14, 2002 (the
"Termination Date"), subject to earlier termination as provided herein.
2.2. (a) MTVA shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to cancel
this Agreement (the "Cancellation Option") as of the date which is five (5)
years from April 15, 1995 (the "Cancellation Date"), exercisable by written
notice to 4MCA no less than one (1) year prior to the Cancellation Date. If
MTVA fails to deliver such notice to 4MCA at least one (1) year prior to the
Cancellation Date, MTVA shall be deemed to have waived the Cancellation Option.
(b) If MTVA exercises the Cancellation Option, then on the Cancellation
Date, MTVA shall be obligated to pay to 4MCA a cancellation fee in an amount
equal to * of the actual aggregate
documented costs of the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditures
(as defined in, and determined pursuant to, Paragraph 6.4(a)), but in no event
to exceed * * (the
"Cancellation Fee").
2.3. If and when MTVA delivers written notice to 4MCA of its exercise of
the Cancellation Option in accordance with Paragraph 2.2(a) , 4MCA shall be
obligated to use all reasonable efforts during the one-year period prior to the
Cancellation Date to ameliorate 4MCA's potential business losses as the result
of MTVA's exercise of the Cancellation Option, including without limitation,
using all reasonable efforts to secure replacement customers to
5
utilize the Premises, Services and Crews during the two-year period following
the Cancellation Date and/or using all reasonable efforts to sell the Equipment.
2.4. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 2.2(b), if 4MCA is
successful in finding a replacement customer or customers who will pay
substantially the same fee that MTVA would have paid hereunder during the two-
year period following the Cancellation Date, then MTVA shall not be obligated to
pay the Cancellation Fee to 4MCA.
2.5. If 4MCA is unable to find such replacement customer(s) but is able to
sell substantially all of the Equipment for an aggregate purchase price in
excess of the lesser of: (a) *
* of the actual aggregate documented costs of the Initial Equipment,
Wiring and Installment Expenditures (as determined pursuant to Paragraph 6.4(a))
or (b) *
* (such excess dollars to be referred to as the "Excess Equipment
Price"), then the Cancellation Fee shall be reduced on a dollar-for-dollar basis
by the amount of the Excess Equipment Price.
2.6. If 4MCA is able to find a replacement customer or customers who will
utilize a portion (but less than substantially all) of the Premises, Services
and Crews (but only with respect to those Crew members under written contract or
to whom severance would be owing upon termination of such Crew members'
services) during the two year period following the Cancellation Date, and is
also able to sell a portion of the Equipment, then 4MCA and MTVA shall negotiate
in good faith to determine the appropriate reduction in the Cancellation Fee.
4MCA shall negotiate in good faith with, and use all reasonable efforts to
contact, all potential buyers, customers and/or other parties in order to
accomplish the amelioration measures set forth in Paragraphs 2.3 through 2.6.
3. FAILURE TO SATISFY
------------------
In the event that the Premises do not satisfy the terms of subparagraphs
(a), (b) or (c) of Paragraph 1.7 above and such failure to satisfy (a "Premises
Failure") exists on or after April 15, 1995 (which shall not include a Premises
Failure that is directly caused by either (a) a Force Majeure Event or (b) any
unreasonable act or failure to act by MTVA (including without limitation and for
illustration purposes only, a Premises Failure relating to MTVA's approval
rights set forth in Paragraph 4.1(b) below) or (c) any other event not within
4MCA's control (including without limitation and for illustration purposes only,
(i) reasonably unforeseen delays in the delivery of any Equipment listed on
SCHEDULE D or (ii) the reasonably unforeseen failure of the Landlord to act
- ----------
regarding the installation of certain equipment by the Landlord pursuant to the
Lease or (iii) delays (which delays are reasonably unforeseen as of the date
hereof, or thereafter are unforeseen in the exercise by 4MCA of all reasonable
efforts) in the granting of appropriate required licenses and/or permits by the
appropriate local authorities, so long as 4MCA has taken all necessary actions
to obtain such required licenses and permits)), and
6
the Premises Failure continues to exist as of May 15, 1995 (the "Penalty Date"),
then 4MCA shall be in material breach of this Agreement and MTVA shall have the
right, among other remedies available to it hereunder or at law or equity, to
terminate this Agreement forthwith and MTVA shall have no obligation to 4MCA of
any nature whatsoever (other than MTVA's pre-commencement payment obligations to
4MCA under Paragraph 1.10 hereunder, if applicable).
4. CREWS AND MEALS
---------------
4.1. (a) 4MCA shall furnish MTVA with the Crews described in SCHEDULE B
----------
on the terms set forth herein. The employment of all persons (and any
individual who replaces any such person during the Term) comprising the Crews
listed in SCHEDULE B will be subject to MTVA's reasonable approval, as more
----------
specifically set forth in Paragraph 4.1(b) below.
(b) SCHEDULE B attached hereto and made a part hereof sets forth the
----------
initial individual (by job description) and aggregate budgeted annualized Crew
costs of *
U.S. Dollars * (the "Budgeted Crew Costs") necessary for
implementation of this Agreement on April 15, 1995. For each individual Crew
member, the Budgeted Crew Costs include base compensation, benefits and taxes,
holiday compensation, if applicable, and an expatriate allowance, if applicable
(collectively for each individual Crew member "Total Compensation").
(i) From time to time after the execution of this Agreement but in any
event no less than thirty (30) days prior to April 15, 1995, 4MCA shall deliver
to MTVA a notice or notices containing the name(s) of proposed Crew member(s)
and corresponding proposed Total Compensation (each a "Crew Notice"). MTVA
shall have the right to reasonably approve or disapprove each Crew member for
any reason; provided, however, if MTVA desires to disapprove a particular Crew
member on the basis of Total Compensation alone, MTVA may only do so if the
proposed Total Compensation for such Crew member, as set forth in the Crew
Notice, exceeds the Total Compensation, by job title, for such Crew member as
set forth on SCHEDULE B. If MTVA disapproves a particular Crew member on the
----------
basis of proposed Total Compensation as set forth in the Crew Notice, MTVA shall
have thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the particular Crew Notice to
find a replacement Crew member at a Total Compensation equal to or less than the
level set forth in the Crew Notice (even if such Total Compensation set forth in
the Crew Notice is in excess of the level set forth on SCHEDULE B). If MTVA is
----------
unable to find a replacement Crew member at a Total Compensation equal to or
less than that set forth in the Crew Notice within such thirty (30) day period,
MTVA shall be deemed to have approved the individual Crew member and
corresponding Total Compensation set forth in the Crew Notice. If MTVA locates
a replacement Crew member at a Total Compensation equal to or less than that set
forth in the Crew Notice, then 4MCA shall be obligated to hire such replacement
Crew member at such equal or lesser Total Compensation level.
7
(ii) MTVA shall have fifteen (15) business days from the date of receipt of
a particular Crew Notice to disapprove a particular Crew member for any reason
other than Total Compensation. MTVA shall deliver notice to 4MCA of MTVA's
disapproval of such particular Crew Member within such fifteen (15) business day
period, stating the particular reason for MTVA's disapproval. MTVA may provide
such notice verbally or in writing, but if 4MCA so requests, MTVA shall confirm
any verbal notice in writing. If MTVA fails to notify 4MCA in writing of MTVA's
disapproval within such fifteen (15) business day period, MTVA shall be deemed
to have approved such particular Crew member (unless MTVA disapproves such
particular Crew member on the basis of Total Compensation, in which case the
provisions of subparagraph (i) above shall be applicable).
(iii) To the extent the aggregate actual Crew costs as of April 15, 1995
exceed the aggregate Budgeted Crew Costs (taking into account the possible
exercise by MTVA of the procedures set forth in this Paragraph 4.1(b)), then the
Annual Base Fee (as defined in Paragraph 6.1(a)) will be increased by an amount
equal to * of such difference.
(iv) To the extent the aggregate actual Crew costs as of April 15, 1995 are
less than the aggregate Budgeted Crew Costs (taking into account the possible
exercise by MTVA of the procedures set forth in this Paragraph 4.1(b)), then the
Annual Base Fee will be decreased by a net amount equal to * of such
difference.
(c) From and after the Actual Commencement Date and subject to paragraph
6.6 hereof, MTVA retains the right, in MTVA's sole and absolute discretion, to
add individual Crew members to, or remove individual Crew members from, the
complement of Crew members and negotiate the consideration paid for any such
additions or removals accordingly (and upon any such removal, MTVA, in its sole
and absolute discretion, may also elect to delete the corresponding Crew
position from the Crew complement). MTVA shall be billed monthly in an amount
equal to the monthly consideration to be paid for any additional Crew members
added by MTVA in accordance with this paragraph and Paragraph 6.6 hereof. If at
any time during the Term MTVA determines to cause the termination of Crew
members required hereunder, and if the particular Crew members whose services
are terminated hereunder have been employed pursuant to written long-term
contracts and/or would be entitled to receive severance payments upon
termination of employment pursuant to any written agreement or in accordance
with Local Laws and Practice (as hereinafter defined), then MTVA shall be
obligated to pay to 4MCA an amount equal to the aggregate severance payments
owing to any and all such terminated Crew members. As used in this Agreement,
the term "Local Laws and Practice" shall mean any and all applicable laws,
rules, regulations, statutes, acts, administrative requirements and related
legislation of the Republic of Singapore with respect to labor matters as such
matters relate to the Crews, and all other mandatory rules, regulations and
practices imposed by the Singapore government.
8
4.2. 4MCA shall make the Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under
----------
"Production Studio", "Production Control Room", "Production Audio Control Room"
and "Production Video Tape" and any other similar Crew members that are added to
the complement of Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6
(collectively, "Studio Crew") available to MTVA exclusively on a Monday through
Friday schedule, in accordance with the hours set forth on SCHEDULE B with each
----------
day consisting of nine hours, including a meal period of up to one hour (the
"Regular Production Hours"), except for the holidays set forth in SCHEDULE B-1
------------
("Holidays"). Weekly call schedules may be requested by MTVA no later than the
previous Friday at noon, and 4MCA shall use its best efforts to accommodate such
schedule. Daily call schedule amendments may be requested by MTVA by 6:00 p.m.
or at the end of the taping day, whichever is later, on the day prior to the
date such amended call schedule is to become effective, and 4MCA shall use its
best efforts to accommodate such schedule.
4.3. 4MCA shall make the Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under "Edit 1",
----------
"Edit 2", "Edit 3" and "Edit Other" and any other similar Crew members that are
added to the complement of Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6
(collectively, "Edit Crew") and Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under "Audio
----------
Mixing Room" and any other similar Crew members that are added to the complement
of Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6 (collectively, "Audio
Mixing Crew") available to MTVA exclusively on a Monday through Friday schedule,
in accordance with the hours set forth on SCHEDULE B, with each day consisting
----------
of nine hours including a meal period of up to one hour (the "Regular Edit and
Audio Mixing Hours"), except for Holidays. 4MCA shall use its best efforts to
accommodate requests for changes to the daily schedule, in accordance with
Paragraph 4.7 below. Regular Production Hours and Regular Edit and Audio Mixing
Hours shall sometimes collectively be referred to herein as the "Regular Hours".
4.4. 4MCA shall make the Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under
----------
"Subtitling 1" and "Subtitling 1/2" and any other similar Crew members that are
added to the complement of Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6
(collectively, "Subtitling Crew") exclusively available to MTVA, with each week
consisting of seven days, in accordance with the shifts and hours set forth on
SCHEDULE B, with each day consisting of nine hours including a meal period of up
- ----------
to one hour, except for Holidays. 4MCA shall use its best efforts to
accommodate requests for changes to the daily schedule, in accordance with
Paragraph 4.7 below.
4.5. 4MCA shall make the Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under
----------
"Origination" and any other similar Crew members that are added to the
complement of Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6 (collectively,
"Origination Crew") available to MTVA on an exclusive basis at all times during
the Term, each week to consist of 168 hours of continuous seven (7) day per week
coverage between and including Monday through Sunday, including all Holidays, in
eight and one-half hour shifts, including a meal period of one-half hour.
9
4.6. 4MCA shall make the Crew members listed on SCHEDULE B under "Library
----------
Facility" and any other similar Crew members that are added to the complement of
Crew members pursuant to Paragraphs 4.1(c) and 6.6 (collectively, "Library
Crew") available to MTVA on an exclusive basis in accordance with the Monday
through Sunday schedule set forth in SCHEDULE B, in eight and one-half hour
----------
shifts, including a meal period of one-half hour, except for Holidays which will
be worked with a reduced Crew that is proportional to actual origination and
other related activities. 4MCA shall use its best efforts to accommodate
requests for changes to the Library Crew schedule, in accordance with Paragraph
4.7 below.
4.7. If MTVA requests that 4MCA provide the Studio Crew, Edit Crew,
Subtitling Crew and/or Audio Mixing Crew in excess of the Regular Hours, such
additional hours shall be deemed "Overtime Hours". If MTVA requests that 4MCA
provide the Studio Crew, Edit Crew, Subtitling Crew and/or Audio Mixing Crew
during a weekend, such hours shall be deemed "Weekend Hours". Notwithstanding
the above, work begun on a Friday which continues beyond midnight and is in
excess of Regular Hours shall be deemed Overtime and not Weekend Hours. If MTVA
requests that 4MCA provide the Studio Crew, Edit Crew, Subtitling Crew and/or
Audio Mixing Crew during a Holiday, the hours worked during the Holiday shall be
deemed "Holiday Hours", except that work begun on a non-Holiday which continues
into a Holiday shall not be deemed Holiday Hours. MTVA shall have priority over
any other 4MCA customer in connection with securing Crew members to work during
Overtime Hours, Weekend Hours and Holiday Hours; provided however, that MTVA
shall not unreasonably seek to extend its use of the Premises, Services and

further that MTVA shall use its best efforts to notify 4MCA within a reasonable
time period of its need for such Overtime Hours, Weekend Hours and/or Holiday

Studio Crew, Edit Crew, Subtitling Crew and Audio Mixing Crew with an additional
meal break, the commencement of which break shall be determined by MTVA in its
sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, MTVA shall use all reasonable
efforts to conform to standard local industry practice in providing timely meal

6. CONSIDERATION
-------------
6.1. CONSIDERATION FOR PREMISES, CREW, SERVICES AND EQUIPMENT
--------------------------------------------------------
(a) Except as otherwise expressly provided for in this Agreement, in full
and complete consideration for 4MCA's provision of the Premises, Crews, Services
and Equipment in accordance herewith during the Term, MTVA shall pay to 4MCA and
4MCA shall accept from MTVA the sum of *
* (the "Base Fee"),
exclusive of taxes, in annual payments in the amount of *
* U.S.
11
Dollars * ("Annual Base Fee"), payable in Singapore dollars, using a
1.0:1.5 exchange rate from U.S. Dollars to Singapore Dollars (i.e., the Annual
Base Fee will equal *
* Singapore Dollars * Singapore)), as follows:
(i) The first installment due on the Actual Commencement Date in the amount
of * U.S. Dollars *
if the Actual Commencement Date falls on the first day of a month. If the
Actual Commencement Date falls on a day other than the first day of a month, the
first installment shall be paid on the Actual Commencement Date and shall be
equal to the prorated portion of *
* U.S. Dollars * for such partial month.
(ii) Subsequent installments due on the first day of each consecutive month
of the Term in advance (beginning with the first day of the month following the
Actual Commencement Date and terminating on the first day of the month preceding
the Termination Date), each installment in the amount of *
* U.S. Dollars * , except that if the
Term ends on a day other than the last day of a month, then the final
installment shall be paid on the first day of such month and shall equal the
prorated portion of * U.S.
Dollars * for such partial month. Each monthly installment fee shall
be referred to as the "Monthly Base Fee".
(b) Notwithstanding the above payment schedule, the Annual Base Fee shall
be increased annually commencing one year from the Actual Commencement Date by
* percent * over the prior year's Annual Base Fee. In addition, unless
otherwise stated herein or agreed to by the parties, any and all other stated
costs and charges payable by MTVA hereunder shall be subject to an annual
increase of * commencing one year from the Actual Commencement Date, over the
prior year's stated costs and charges.
(c) Notwithstanding the above payment schedule, the Annual Base Fee may
increase or decrease pursuant to the terms of Paragraphs 4.1(b) and may decrease
pursuant to the terms of Paragraphs 6.4(a) and/or 6.4(b).
(d) Any costs that are incurred by 4MCA during the Term of this Agreement
in order for 4MCA to perform its obligations under this Agreement (other than
the amounts which MTVA is expressly required to pay pursuant to this Agreement,
including without limitation, those amounts set forth in Paragraphs 4.1(c), 6.1,
6.2, 6.5, 6.6 and 6.7) shall be the sole and exclusive responsibility of 4MCA,
except that MTVA shall be responsible for the payment of all existing and new
sales and service taxes and other similar taxes applicable to the Premises,
Services and Equipment, prorated for the period of MTVA's actual use and/or
occupancy of the Premises, Services and Equipment.
12
(e) Notwithstanding the above, 4MCA shall have the one-time right, at any
time prior to the Actual Commencement Date, to elect to receive a portion of any
and/or all of the payments required to be made under Paragraphs 6.1(a)(i) and
(ii) in U.S. Dollars. Upon any such election by 4MCA hereunder, the payment
schedules set forth Paragraph 6.1 shall be adjusted accordingly and the parties
agree to be bound thereby.
(f) All payments of the Monthly Base Fee, together with any other amounts
to be paid by MTVA hereunder, shall be paid in Singapore dollars by wire
transfer of immediately available funds to a bank to be designated by 4MCA and
delivered in writing to MTVA no less than seven (7) business days prior to the
Actual Commencement Date, provided that should local banking and/or currency
laws, rules or regulations (collectively, "Currency Rules") at any time prohibit
the making of such payments (or any portion thereof) in accordance with this
Paragraph 6.1(f), then (a) the parties shall agree in good faith to alternative
payment arrangements and (b) MTVA agrees that in such instances, 4MCA shall
nevertheless remain entitled to the full payment that 4MCA would have received
as a result of MTVA making payment in the manner contemplated herein but for
such Currency Rules. If 4MCA exercises the one-time right to elect to receive a
portion of any or all of the payments required to be made under Paragraphs
6.1(a)(i) and (ii) in U.S. dollars, at such time as 4MCA notifies MTVA in
writing of such election, 4MCA shall specify the U.S. location to which such
funds should be sent via wire transfer of immediately available funds.
6.2. OVERTIME, WEEKEND AND HOLIDAY SERVICES AND CREW
-----------------------------------------------
(a) MTVA will pay Overtime Hours for Services worked by the Studio Crew,
Edit Crew, Audio Mixing Crew and Subtitling Crew in excess of the Regular Hours,
in accordance with SCHEDULE B-2 attached hereto and made a part hereof. For
------------
each Overtime Hour that MTVA requests 4MCA to provide, MTVA agrees to pay the
hourly fee set forth on SCHEDULE B-2, prorated for less than a full Studio Crew
------------
or Edit Crew pursuant to the formula described in Paragraph 6.2(d). The fee for
any Overtime Hours, Weekend Hours or Holiday Hours shall be prorated to the
quarter-hour.
(b) MTVA agrees to pay 4MCA and 4MCA agrees to accept the applicable
amounts set forth on SCHEDULE B-2 for a full complement of Services and Crews
------------
that MTVA requests 4MCA to provide which are deemed Weekend Hours or Holiday
Hours (i.e., not including services of the Crews begun after 5 PM on a Friday
-----
that continue beyond midnight in excess of Regular Hours, which shall be deemed
Overtime Hours, or services of the Crews begun on a non-holiday that continue
into a Holiday), prorated for less than a full Studio Crew or Edit Crew pursuant
to the formula described in Paragraph 6.2(d).
13
(c) If MTVA procures other services of 4MCA in excess of the Regular Hours,
the charges for such additional time shall be agreed upon by MTVA and 4MCA in
good faith and shall in no event exceed the lowest rate then charged by 4MCA for
similar services or crew.
(d) If MTVA requests that 4MCA provide less than a full complement of
----
Studio Crew and/or Edit Crew in connection with any Overtime, Weekend or Holiday
Hours, then MTVA shall pay 4MCA the applicable amount set forth on SCHEDULE B-2
------------
with respect to studio Services and Studio Crew and/or edit Services and Edit
Crew (as the case may be), reduced as follows: MTVA shall designate those
individual Studio Crew members and/or Edit Crew members whose presence is not
required with respect to such Overtime, Weekend or Holiday Hours. The actual
base salary of each such designated Studio Crew member and/or Edit Crew member
as of the Actual Commencement Date (as increased annually pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement) shall be divided by 2080 (40 hours per week multiplied by 52
weeks per year) and the quotient shall be multiplied by 1.5. The resulting
product with respect to each such designated Studio Crew member and/or Edit Crew
member shall be deducted from the hourly fee set forth on SCHEDULE B-2 with
------------
respect to studio Services and Studio Crew members and/or edit Services and Edit
Crew members, as applicable.
(e) There shall be no charge to MTVA for Overtime Hours, Holiday Hours or
Weekend Hours without the express written authorization of MTVA (via its
production manager or other designated representative).
(f) Crew utilization during Overtime Hours, Weekend Hours and Holiday Hours
shall be subject, in all instances, to availability of particular Crew members.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, 4MCA shall use all reasonable efforts to provide
the full complement of Crew members requested by MTVA during Overtime, Weekend
or Holiday Hours (even if 4MCA cannot provide certain individually-identified
Crew members during such periods).
6.3. ACCESS TO PREMISES
------------------
Unless expressly provided to the contrary herein, MTVA and its personnel
and other representatives shall have the full right of access to the Premises,
on a twenty-four (24) hour, seven (7) days per week basis, for the purpose of
producing, videotaping and transmitting programming to an interconnect and all
related activities thereto. MTVA represents and warrants that, notwithstanding
the full right of access provided pursuant to the preceding sentence, under no
circumstances shall MTVA and/or its personnel interfere in any manner with
4MCA's provision of services, facilities, personnel and equipment to other
customers of 4MCA, to the extent such provision of services, facilities,
personnel and equipment is permissible hereunder. MTVA further covenants that
(a) neither it nor any of its personnel shall utilize such right of access for
any purposes other than in connection with the terms and conditions of this
14
Agreement and (b) MTVA and its personnel shall be subject to all security
measures implemented by 4MCA pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including
without limitation, those security measures described in Paragraph 7.1 herein.
6.4. INITIAL CAPITAL EXPENDITURES AND BUILD-OUT COSTS
------------------------------------------------
(a) SCHEDULE D attached hereto and made a part hereof sets forth 4MCA's
----------
budgeted initial capital expenditures on an itemized basis relating to
Equipment, installation and wiring of the Premises but excluding start-up and
build-out costs of the Premises (the "Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring
Expenditures") of *
Dollars U.S. Dollars * (the "Initial Equipment, Installation and
Wiring Expenditure Budget"). If the proposed cost of any item of Equipment
required to implement the terms of this Agreement (without regard to any
increased services pursuant to Paragraph 25 or elsewhere) exceeds the cost for
such item on the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditure Budget
by the greater of * or * then MTVA shall have the right to disapprove
such item and to designate a piece of replacement Equipment which 4MCA shall be
required to purchase, provided such Equipment is reasonably compatible with the
other items of Equipment to be installed pursuant to this Agreement. If MTVA
fails to disapprove a particular item of Equipment within seven (7) business
days after receiving written notification from 4MCA of the proposed cost of such
item of Equipment, then MTVA shall be deemed to have approved such item of
Equipment at such proposed cost. If the aggregate actual documented costs of
the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditures required to
implement the terms hereof (without regard to any increased services pursuant to
Paragraph 25 or elsewhere), which documentation shall be presented to MTVA no
later than thirty (30) days after the Actual Commencement Date, are lower than
the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditure Budget (taking into
account the possible exercise by MTVA of the approval procedures set forth in
this paragraph), then for each * Dollar * decrease in
actual documented costs of the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring
Expenditures from the Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditure
Budget, the Annual Base Fee shall decrease by *
Dollars * (it being understood and agreed that the calculation of any
decrease in the Annual Base Fee in accordance with this Paragraph 6.4(a) shall
be based on such * to * proportion). The Monthly Base Fee shall
be decreased accordingly, effective as of the Actual Commencement Date (i.e. all
amounts that have been paid in excess of such decreased amount prior to the
effectiveness of the foregoing calculation (the "Capital Credit") shall be
deducted from the next adjusted Monthly Base Fee to be paid hereunder and any
subsequent adjusted Monthly Base Fees as required to reduce the Capital Credit
to zero). If the aggregate actual documented costs of the Initial Equipment,
Installation and Wiring Expenditures exceed the Initial Equipment, Installation
and Wiring Expenditure Budget (without taking into account any increased
services pursuant to Paragraph 25 or elsewhere), there shall be no increase in
the Annual Base Fee or Monthly Base Fee based upon such increased costs. For
illustration purposes only, assume that within 30 days after the Actual
Commencement Date, 4MCA delivers documentation to MTVA which
15
demonstrates that the aggregate actual documented costs of the Initial
Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditures total *
* * resulting in a
decrease of * Dollars * from the Initial Expenditure
Budget. An amount equal to * Dollars *
would be deducted from the Annual Base Fee in each year of the Term, and the
Monthly Base Fee would be reduced accordingly.
(b) 4MCA's budgeted initial expenditures relating to start-up and build-out
costs of the Premises, together with possible overages in connection with
Initial Equipment, Installation and Wiring Expenditures (collectively, the
"Build-Out Costs"), total *
* Dollars * all in accordance with the Floor Plan
(the "Initial Build-Out Budget"). If the aggregate actual documented Build-Out
Costs required to implement the terms hereof (based on the Floor Plan and
without regard to any increased services pursuant to Paragraph 25 or elsewhere),
which documentation shall be presented to MTVA no later than thirty (30) days
after the Actual Commencement Date, are lower than the Initial Build-Out Budget,
then for each * Dollar * decrease in actual documented
Build-Out Costs from the Initial Build-Out Budget, the Annual Base Fee shall
decrease by * Dollars * (it being
understood and agreed that the calculation of any decrease in the Annual Base
Fee in accordance with this Paragraph 6.4(b) shall be based on such *
to * proportion). The Monthly Base Fee shall be decreased accordingly,
effective as of the Actual Commencement Date (i.e. all amounts that have been
paid in excess of such decreased amount prior to the effectiveness of the
foregoing calculation (the "Build Out Credit") shall be deducted from the next
adjusted Monthly Base Fee to be paid hereunder and any subsequent adjusted
Monthly Base Fees as required to reduce the Build Out Credit to zero). For
illustration purposes only, assume that within thirty (30) days after the Actual
Commencement Date, 4MCA delivers documentation to MTVA which demonstrates that
the aggregate actual documented Build-Out Costs total *
* Dollars * resulting in a
decrease of * in actual Build-Out Costs from the Initial Build-Out
Budget. An amount equal to * Dollars *
would be deducted from the Annual Base Fee in each year of the Term, and the
Monthly Base Fee would be reduced accordingly. If the actual initial Build-Out
Costs exceed the Initial Build-Out Budget (without taking into account any
increased services pursuant to Paragraph 25 or elsewhere), there shall be no
increase in the Annual Base Fee or the Monthly Base Fee based upon such
increased costs.
(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions contained in subparagraphs (a)
and (b) above, if MTVA request changes and/or additions to the Floor Plan that
would result in an increase in the Build Out Costs and/or the Initial Equipment,
Installation and Wiring Expenditures, and 4MCA agrees to make such changes
and/or additions to the Floor Plan, then 4MCA and MTVA shall negotiate in good
faith to determine the appropriate increase, if any, in the Annual Base Fee.
16
6.5. ADDITIONAL EQUIPMENT
--------------------
(a) From and after the Commencement Date, MTVA may from time to time
request that 4MCA make available to MTVA certain additional equipment and/or
facilities of 4MCA not otherwise provided hereunder in connection with MTVA's
production, post-production or related activities, and 4MCA agrees to provide
such additional equipment and/or facilities to MTVA, to the extent such
equipment and/or facilities are reasonably available. In consideration for
4MCA's provision of such equipment and/or facilities pursuant to this paragraph,
MTVA shall pay 4MCA a mutually agreed rental price not to exceed 4MCA's then-
current rate card for such services. If MTVA requests documented
substantiation of such costs, 4MCA agrees to provide the same in a timely
manner.
(b) At MTVA's request and according to MTVA's need, 4MCA shall provide
supplementary equipment from an outside source as requested throughout the Term
of this Agreement, so long as such supplementary equipment is reasonably
available. The cost of such equipment shall be at a mutually agreed upon rate
and shall be borne by MTVA.
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
(ii) If 4MCA elects not to secure the Additional Equipment for MTVA, or
MTVA elects not to secure the Additional Equipment from 4MCA, MTVA may then rent
or lease the Additional Equipment from any outside source engaged by MTVA,
provided such Additional Equipment is reasonably compatible with the existing
Equipment located at the Premises and is delivered to 4MCA in good and proper
working order. Any Additional Equipment installed from an outside source
engaged by MTVA shall be installed and maintained at MTVA's expense and
liability or, if MTVA elects, MTVA may engage 4MCA to install and maintain such
Additional Equipment, at costs acceptable to MTVA. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if any Additional Equipment is to be installed in areas of the
Premises relating to origination Services, then 4MCA shall install and maintain
such Additional Equipment, at costs
17
acceptable to MTVA. 4MCA shall have the right to inspect the Additional
Equipment prior to installation to confirm that such Additional Equipment is not
defective and is reasonably compatible with the existing Equipment required
pursuant to this Agreement. MTVA shall be solely responsible for any damages to
the Additional Equipment and/or any materials supplied by MTVA hereunder which
are a direct result of any installation of Additional Equipment by a person or
an entity other than 4MCA or 4MCA's designee. Further, MTVA shall be liable to
4MCA for any damages to 4MCA's equipment, personnel and/or the Premises which
are a direct result of such installation by a person or an entity other than
4MCA or 4MCA's designee.
6.6. ADDITIONAL CREW
---------------
MTVA may request that additional Crew members be added to or removed from
the Crew complement provided by 4MCA in SCHEDULE B at any time and from time to
----------
time, at MTVA's sole and absolute discretion, subject to the provisions of
Paragraph 4.1(c). Upon any such removal, MTVA, in its sole and absolute
discretion, may also elect to delete the corresponding Crew position from the
Crew complement. In the event that 4MCA provides any additional Crew members
pursuant to MTVA's request, MTVA agrees to pay and 4MCA agrees to accept payment
with respect thereto in accordance with a rate card to be negotiated in good
faith by the parties. In the event 4MCA fails to provide MTVA with additional
crew members pursuant to MTVA's request therefor, MTVA shall have the right to
engage such person or persons as MTVA's employees.
6.7. OVERAGES; CREDITS TO MTVA
--------------------------
(a) 4MCA shall invoice MTVA weekly for all amounts due in excess of the
consideration payable as set forth in Paragraph 6.1 (the "Overages"). Each
Overage invoice shall be delivered to MTVA within 10 business days after the
date the Overage fee was incurred, or such Overage shall be deemed waived by
4MCA. MTVA shall have the right to reasonably contest any Overages by requiring
4MCA to provide written documentation substantiating any such Overages. To the
extent the parties cannot agree on a particular Overage invoice, both parties
shall submit the relevant calculations and any relevant documentation to a
mutually approved independent third-party accounting firm of international
standing who shall promptly render its decision as to the appropriate Overage in
writing , which decision shall be final and binding on the parties. If such
accounting firm determines that the Overage was either properly invoiced or
should have been a higher amount, then MTVA shall bear the costs of such
accounting firm. If such accounting firm determines that the Overage invoice
was improperly invoiced in exceeding the actual amount that should have been
invoiced to MTVA, then 4MCA shall bear the costs of such accounting firm.
Payment of any uncontested Overages shall be payable thirty (30) days after the
delivery to MTVA of such invoice. Payment of any contested Overage shall be
made within ten (10) days of MTVA's receipt of the independent third-party
accounting firm's written decision, such payment to be in the amount specified
in such written decision.
18
(b) To the extent that any amounts paid by MTVA to 4MCA pursuant to this
Paragraph 6 are in excess of the amounts actually owed for the period in
question, 4MCA shall promptly refund to MTVA such overpayment.
7. SECURITY; INSURANCE
-------------------
7.1. 4MCA shall at all times be responsible for providing reasonable care
and reasonable security for the studio, edit, origination, storage areas,
videotape storage and all other areas where MTVA's personnel or property may at
any or all times be located or have access to. Such security measures shall
include, without limitation, a minimum of one security guard in the reception
area that is immediately adjacent to and a part of the Premises, at all times
during MTVA's production hours. 4MCA shall provide a card-key lock or security
key pad system on all entrances to the Premises, which card-key lock or security
key pad system shall be approved in advance by MTVA. Accordingly, access to the
Premises shall be limited to MTVA and its authorized employees and visitors,
4MCA and its authorized employees and visitors (and with respect to 4MCA's
visitors, to the extent prior approval of MTVA has been obtained), and with
respect to certain Premises, 4MCA's other customers (but only to the extent use
of the Premises by such customers is permitted hereunder). In addition, MTVA
may provide additional guards at MTVA's expense during production hours;
provided however, that such additional security shall in no way reduce 4MCA's
obligations to provide reasonable security hereunder. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if for any reason, including without limitation, the appearance of
high-visibility talent in connection with any MTVA production, extraordinary
security is required (beyond that which would already be provided pursuant to
this Paragraph 7.1), the cost of any and all such extraordinary security
measures shall be borne solely by MTVA.
7.2. 4MCA shall be liable for any and all personal injury and property
damage arising from 4MCA's employees', agents', invitees' or 4MCA's grossly
negligent or willful acts or omissions or 4MCA's material breach of any
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement in this Agreement. MTVA shall
be liable for any and all personal injury and property damage arising from
MTVA's employees', agents', invitees' or MTVA's grossly negligent or willful
acts or omissions or MTVA's material breach of any representation, warranty,
covenant or agreement in this Agreement.

its parent companies, Viacom International Inc and Viacom Inc. (and any two
other parties as MTVA may designate) as additional insureds. 4MCA shall commit
to, and the parties will cooperate with each other in connection with,
19
obtaining appropriate insurance coverage for any additional MTVA-owned equipment
and/or materials delivered to the Premises during the Term.
7.4. In addition, 4MCA shall maintain Comprehensive General Liability
insurance and All Risk Property insurance, covering MTVA's interest in all
property located on or around the Premises, and the liability of 4MCA to third
parties, including MTVA's personnel, arising out of the furnishing by 4MCA of
the Services and Crews. 4MCA will maintain such coverage in a form satisfactory

7.5. 4MCA shall ensure that each insurance company providing coverage
under Paragraphs 7.3 and 7.4 shall be licensed to do business in the Republic of
Singapore and shall be authorized to issue the policies listed hereunder. All of
the policies referred to above shall be written as primary insurance coverage
only, and shall not be deemed to be in excess of, or to contribute to any,
coverage carried by MTVA, Viacom International Inc., Viacom Inc. or any other
direct or indirect subsidiary or affiliate thereof with respect to the same
risks. 4MCA shall ensure that each insurer providing coverage hereunder shall
provide MTVA with written notice of any change in such insurer, coverage,
material change or reduction thereof (including limits, loss of coverage,
provisions or forms, notice of termination, cancellation or non-renewal or of
aggregate erosion thereon) at least thirty (30) days prior to the proposed
effective date thereof. 4MCA represents and warrants that it will secure
liability insurance and workman's compensation insurance of the type and in the
amounts set forth above with Chubb. 4MCA shall deliver to MTVA certificates of
insurance prior to or upon the execution of this Agreement

--------------------------------------------------------------
PERSONNEL
- ---------
8.1. If the equipment provided or maintained by 4MCA hereunder (including,
without limitation, property owned by MTVA) ceases to operate properly, causing
an unreasonable delay in production, or unreasonable delays in production occur
due to 4MCA's personnel (including, without limitation, late arrival of
personnel) (any such event, a "Production Failure"), then, except for gross
negligence on the part of 4MCA or 4MCA's personnel (which shall be covered
pursuant to Paragraph 18 hereof) and notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, 4MCA's sole liability (but only with respect to the
consequences of a Production Failure) shall be the rights afforded to MTVA as
set forth in subparagraphs (a), (b), and (c) below in connection with any such
Production Failure, and MTVA at its sole option and within 48 business hours may
elect to:

*
* or
(c) *

*
8.2. If MTVA extends the Term pursuant to the option set forth in
Paragraph 8.1(a) above, and such extension conflicts with either services,
personnel and/or equipment being provided to other customers of 4MCA, then,
notwithstanding such conflict, MTVA shall have priority over any other customer
of 4MCA and 4MCA shall fully perform its obligations hereunder without regard to
any such conflict.
21
8.3. If MTVA desires to extend the Term pursuant to Paragraph 8.1(a)
above, but such extension violates the terms of the Lease, then 4MCA agrees to
pay MTVA in an amount equal to the fees that would have been paid to 4MCA for
services performed during such extension, had the Term been extended in
accordance with Paragraph 8.1(a).
8.4. 4MCA shall not be responsible for any delays or additional expenses
due to equipment failure which is the direct result of the servicing of such
equipment by personnel provided by MTVA.
8.5. With respect to any advertising that is not aired as a result of any
negligent act or negligent omission by 4MCA (other than in connection with a
loss of origination of the signals, as described in Paragraph 9.1(b), or a
failure or total loss of the signals, as described in Paragraphs 9.1(c) and (d)
respectively), 4MCA shall be liable for all costs, losses, expenses, claims,
liabilities and damages (collectively, "Damages") incurred by MTVA in connection
with, or arising from, any such negligent act or negligent omission, including
without limitation, all lost advertising revenue that would have been received
by MTVA had such advertising actually aired. At MTVA's option, the Damages
shall be payable directly to MTVA by 4MCA or shall be deducted from any of the
installment payments due for 4MCA pursuant to Paragraph 6.1 hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein:

notice, and 4MCA fails to either cure the Default or provide alternative
origination facilities satisfactory to MTVA within such * period; or
(c) if the signals fall below any of the levels specified in SCHEDULE H
----------
(which event shall constitute a Default hereunder) and after MTVA has served
notice specifying the Default and requiring the same to be remedied, the signals
continue to fall below any of the levels specified in SCHEDULE H for a period of
----------
12 hours or more after receipt of such notice; or
(d) if by reason of failure of the origination facilities and/or
maintenance and repairs to the origination facilities there is a total loss of
the signals for any individual feed for either:
(i) * in the aggregate in any * day period for any
individual feed; or
(ii) * in the aggregate in any * day period for any
individual feed; or
(iii) * separate periods, each lasting longer than * minutes in

action is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of the commencement of such
action.
(g) without limiting any of MTVA's other rights or remedies provided
hereunder or at law or equity in the event of a Default or otherwise, if there
is a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the Lease (as defined
in Paragraph 16.2) which (i) prevents 4MCA from effectuating any material term
or provision hereunder or (ii)
24
results in a material adverse effect on any of MTVA's rights, whether express or
implied, under this Agreement (either of (i) or (ii) shall constitute a Default
hereunder), and after MTVA has served notice in accordance with Paragraph 22
specifying the Default and requiring the same to be remedied, the Default
continues for a period of 48 hours or more after receipt of such notice.
9.2. 4MCA may, without prejudice to any of its rights hereunder or at law
or equity, upon giving appropriate notice in accordance with Paragraph 22,
terminate this Agreement (which shall extinguish its obligations to MTVA
hereunder except as otherwise expressly set forth herein) at any time upon the
occurrence of any of the following events:
(a) subject to the proviso set forth in the first sentence of Paragraph
6.1(f) hereunder, if any payment required to be made by MTVA hereunder (other
than Overages which are in dispute) is not made within * after the
date on which 4MCA notifies MTVA that MTVA's payment is past due (a "Payment
Default Date"), and 4MCA has given MTVA an additional * written
notice of termination to MTVA following the Payment Default Date, provided that
if MTVA delivers payment to 4MCA during such * period following the
Payment Default Date, such termination notice shall cease to be effective; or
(b) if MTVA or Viacom International Inc. seeks relief under any applicable
bankruptcy statute, is placed in receivership, makes any assignment for the
benefit of creditors or commences the winding-up of its business, and any such
action is not dismissed within thirty (30) days of the commencement of such
action.

the right to exercise termination rights hereunder if such party is in material
default of any of its obligations hereunder.
10. ENGINEERING AND MAINTENANCE
---------------------------
10.1. 4MCA agrees to provide MTVA with engineering coverage through the
availability of at least one engineer on-site or on-call 24 hours a day, 7 days
a week throughout the Term. 4MCA agrees to dedicate at least 40 hours per week
for the maintenance of the studio, edit and origination Equipment. 4MCA shall
provide to MTVA or its designees a weekly schedule in advance showing the
engineering coverage, including the names of the engineers and hours to be
worked. 4MCA shall keep accurate records of maintenance performed on all
Equipment and provide ready access to these records at all times. 4MCA shall
provide the following services, which shall include, without limitation:
(a) Routine maintenance of the Equipment: The Equipment shall be tested
and maintained in accordance with manufacturers' then current specifications,
recommendations and good engineering practice. If no such specifications or
recommendations
25
have been issued by the manufacturer, then testing and maintenance shall be
performed in accordance with good engineering practice. In all cases of lack of
documentation of specifications, 4MCA shall consult with a designee of MTVA as
to what course of action should be taken.
(b) Routine alignment of origination Equipment: All Equipment shall be
realigned at least three times a year at a time and date to be agreed with MTVA
at least 4 weeks in advance. Further, 4MCA shall cooperate with the uplink and
interconnect service provider in relation to the alignment of the main and
standby audio and video circuits and uplink. Such alignment shall be carried
out in accordance with then current manufacturers' specifications and good
engineering practice. Under no circumstances shall any alignment be conducted
in such a manner as knowingly or negligently will result in the interruption or
loss of origination of the signals. If interruption is necessary for the above
purpose, 4MCA shall obtain MTVA's written approval before conducting any
alignment or maintenance.
(c) Fault detection and restoration: 4MCA shall use its best efforts to
correct any fault, loss, defect, or interruption to the signals (or any part
thereof) immediately after it becomes aware of the same or reasonably should
have become aware of the same. Upon any fault, loss, defect or interruption
that results in the loss of the signals (or any part thereof), 4MCA shall notify
MTVA immediately. All other faults, losses, defects or interruptions shall be
reported to MTVA on the next working day, stating the time, date, cause and the
remedial course of action taken or to be taken.
10.2. 4MCA shall have a documented contingency plan agreed to between MTVA
and 4MCA which specifies the course of action to be taken by 4MCA in the event
of catastrophic failure of the origination Equipment. A copy of the contingency
plan shall be supplied to MTVA prior to the Actual Commencement Date (or the
Pre-Commencement Date, if applicable) and will be updated in agreement with MTVA
annually, or at such shorter intervals as either party shall deem necessary, but
in no event more frequently than every three months.
10.3. The technical suitability of recordings and other transmissions made
with the Equipment described in SCHEDULE D and all other Equipment provided by
----------
4MCA shall at all times be in accordance with then currently accepted television
broadcast standards, practices and regulations (including without limitation
those of BR (Former CCIR), EBU and SMPTE).
10.4. The line of demarcation between the origination signal and the
common carrier ("Carrier") shall be as follows:
(a) For unencrypted and uncompressed signals (whether analog or digital),
including video (with vertical blanking interval ("VBI") signals) and one or two
stereo pairs (whether analog or digital), the line of demarcation shall be
located between the final
26
output of the originated audio and video signals and the Carrier-provided
customer premise equipment ("CPE"), which in turn interfaces to Carrier's
terrestrial circuits ("Terrestrial Channels").
(b) For encrypted analog signals, including scrambled video (with VBI
signals) and one or two encoded stereo audio pairs, the line of demarcation
shall be located between the output of the scrambling equipment (with
distribution and/or monitoring equipment associated with the operation of the
scrambling equipment) and the input to Carrier-provided CPE, which in turn
interfaces to Carrier's Terrestrial Channels.
(c) For digital compression signals, including one or more digitally
compressed video signals with accompanying digitally compressed audio channels
and other digital signals, the line of demarcation shall be situated between the
output of the digital compression encoder system (with distribution and/or
monitoring equipment associated with the operation of the compression equipment)
and Carrier-provided CPE, which in turn interfaces to Carrier's Terrestrial
Channels.
(d) Provided that 4MCA maintains all origination equipment in conformity
with manufacturer's specifications, then except for any gross negligence by 4MCA
and/or its employees in connection with the use of any such equipment, the
failure of any encryption and/or compression equipment, and all related
equipment (including without limitation, multiplexors, modems, changeover units
and control computers, and also including without limitation, any of such
equipment purchased and/or provided by MTVA), which failure results in the
degradation or loss of the originated signals, shall not trigger the provisions
of Section 9.1 hereunder, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement
to the contrary.
10.5. 4MCA shall only be required to operate radio frequency ("RF")
equipment, including, without limitation, wireless microphones, wireless
intercom, receive-only satellite antenna and similar equipment, within the
operating parameters and conditions granted by the local telecommunication
authority and in a manner so as not to cause harm to third parties.
11. PERSONNEL
---------
11.1. 4MCA shall be responsible for all benefits, wages, payroll, and
withholding taxes that may become due with respect to all 4MCA personnel,
including subcontractors engaged by 4MCA or personnel engaged through such

parties hereunder that 4MCA is and shall be an independent contractor. All Crew
or other persons providing services hereunder (which are hired by 4MCA) shall be
employees of 4MCA and not MTVA.
27
11.2. Unless otherwise herein provided, 4MCA covenants that MTVA shall
have no responsibility or liability to or on behalf of any persons or entities
whose services are furnished by 4MCA pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise,
and 4MCA will indemnify MTVA and hold harmless MTVA from any and all claims,
costs, expenses or damages arising out of the employment by 4MCA of personnel
engaged in a strike, boycott, or work slow-down, except in connection with a
Force Majeure Event. 4MCA covenants that it will use its best efforts to employ
qualified replacement workers, subject to MTVA's prior approval, to perform the
services required herein. Notwithstanding the above, if 4MCA is unable to
obtain such replacement workers to fulfill 4MCA's obligations herein, which
results in an unreasonable delay in production (i.e. a delay in production of 24
hours or more) then, MTVA shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
without further obligation to 4MCA, except in connection with a Force Majeure
Event.
12. PRINCIPAL MANAGERS

If both Robert Walston and Gavin Schutz cease to be actively employed by
4MCA or its parent corporation, or cease to be actively engaged in the

liens, costs and expenses, including reasonable counsel fees (herein
collectively called "claims"), arising out of (a) any material breach by 4MCA of
any representation, warranty, covenant, obligation or agreement made by 4MCA
hereunder, or (b) any grossly negligent acts or omissions of 4MCA, its
employees, representatives, guests, agents or invitees in connection with the

made) give 4MCA written notice of such claim. 4MCA shall have thirty days after
receipt of such notice to assume and control the defense of such claim at its
expense and through counsel of its choice, with the prior written consent of
MTVA. 4MCA's counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to MTVA. If in MTVA's
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist between MTVA and 4MCA with
respect to such claim, MTVA shall be entitled to select counsel of its own
choosing, in which event 4MCA shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
such counsel, to the extent that the same are reasonable.
If 4MCA elects not to defend against any claim that is brought
pursuant to Paragraph 18.1, then it shall within the 30 days set forth in the
preceding paragraph, promptly so notify MTVA and, in such event, MTVA shall
thereupon again be entitled to assume and control the defense of such a claim
through counsel of its choice. In any circumstance where 4MCA elects not to
defend such claim, 4MCA shall promptly pay all reasonable attorneys',
accountants' and other advisors' fees and expenses of MTVA in connection with
the assumption and defense of such claim. If 4MCA exercises its right to
undertake the defense against any such claim as provided above, MTVA shall
cooperate with 4MCA in such defense and make available to 4MCA, at 4MCA's
expense, all pertinent records, materials and information in its possession or
under its control related thereto as is reasonably requested by 4MCA.
Anything in this Paragraph 18.1 to the contrary notwithstanding, (a)
if there is a reasonable probability in the judgment of MTVA that a claim may
materially and adversely affect MTVA (monetarily or otherwise), MTVA will have
the right to defend and co-defend and with the consent of 4MCA (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld) compromise and
32
settle such claim, and (b) 4MCA will not, without the prior written consent of
MTVA, settle or compromise any claim or consent to entry of any judgment
relating to any such claim, which settlement, compromise or judgment does not
include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or the
plaintiff to MTVA, a full, complete and unconditional release from all
liabilities in respect of such claim.
18.2. In addition to any other indemnification obligations set forth
in this Agreement, MTVA shall at all times indemnify and hold harmless 4MCA, its
parent, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors, licensees and assigns, and their
respective officers, directors, agents, representatives, employees, and
designees from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, liens,

4MCA acknowledges that, if such Revocation was beyond the reasonable control of
MTVA to prevent, 4MCA shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate MTVA's payment
obligations hereunder.
If a claim by a third party is made against 4MCA, and 4MCA intends to
seek indemnity with respect thereto under Paragraph 18.2 of this Agreement, 4MCA
shall promptly (and in any case within 30 days of such claim being formally
made) give MTVA written notice of such claim. MTVA shall have thirty days after
receipt of such notice to assume and control the defense of such claim at its
expense and through counsel of its choice, with the prior written consent of
4MCA. MTVA's counsel shall be reasonably satisfactory to 4MCA. If in 4MCA's
reasonable judgment a conflict of interest may exist between MTVA and 4MCA with
respect to such claim, 4MCA shall be entitled to select counsel of its own
choosing, in which event MTVA shall be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of
such counsel, to the extent that the same are reasonable.
If MTVA elects not to defend against any claim that is brought
pursuant to Paragraph 18.2, then it shall within 30 days set forth above,
promptly so notify 4MCA and, in such event, 4MCA shall thereupon again be
entitled to assume and control the defense of such claim through counsel of its
choice. In any circumstance where MTVA elects not to defend such claim MTVA
shall promptly pay all reasonable attorneys', accountant' and other advisors'
fees and expenses of 4MCA in connection with the assumption and defense of such
claim. If MTVA exercises its right to undertake the defense against any such
claim as provided above, 4MCA shall cooperate with MTVA in such defense and make
available to MTVA, at MTVA's expense, all pertinent records, materials and
information in its possession or under its control related thereto as is
reasonably requested by MTVA.

Anything in this Paragraph 18.2 to the contrary notwithstanding, (a)
if there is a reasonable probability in the judgment of 4MCA that a claim may
materially and adversely affect 4MCA (monetarily or otherwise), 4MCA will have
the right to defend and co-defend and with the consent of MTVA (which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld) compromise and settle such claim, and (b)
MTVA will not, without the prior written consent of 4MCA, settle or compromise
any claim or consent to entry of any judgment relating to any such claim, which
settlement, compromise or judgment does not include as an unconditional term
thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to 4MCA, a full, complete
and unconditional release from all liabilities in respect of such claim.
19. FORCE MAJEURE
-------------
19.1. For the purposes of this Paragraph 19, a "Force Majeure Event"
shall be deemed to be any acts of God; natural catastrophes; governmental acts,
omissions or enactments; national emergencies; insurrections; riots; wars; fire;
flood; explosion; or strikes; lock-outs or other labor difficulties beyond the
control of the parties hereto. Governmental action which prohibits MTVA from
broadcasting any or all of its programming shall not be deemed a Force Majeure
Event.
19.2. If either 4MCA or MTVA is unable to timely perform any of its
obligations hereunder because of a Force Majeure Event, then 4MCA or MTVA, as
the case may be, shall not be deemed in breach or in default hereunder by reason
thereof (such party to be referred to hereunder as the "Non-Performing Party"
and the other party to be referred to as the "Terminating Party").
19.3. If a Force Majeure Event prevents the timely performance of any
of the obligations of 4MCA or MTVA hereunder, then:
(a) Only if 4MCA is the Non-Performing Party, the Term shall be
automatically extended for a period equal to the period of the delay without
payment of any additional compensation (so long as such extension does not
violate the terms of the Lease), subject to the provisions of subparagraph (b)
below.
(b) If the delay lasts more than twenty (20) days or if it is
reasonably apparent that such a delay will last for twenty (20) or more days,
then the Terminating Party shall have the right, by written notice given to the
Non-Performing Party, to immediately terminate this Agreement as of the date the
notice is received as set forth in Paragraph 22. If the Force Majeure Event
ceases prior to the expiration of the twenty (20)-day period, and such notice
has been delivered to the Non-Performing Party, then such notice shall be deemed
rescinded.
34
(c) If MTVA terminates this Agreement as provided in subparagraph (b)
above, 4MCA shall immediately return to MTVA all amounts paid by MTVA for
Services and/or Crew not yet actually furnished by 4MCA (provided that MTVA
shall be responsible for all amounts due for Premises, Services, Crews and/or
Equipment actually provided during the period prior to termination for such
Force Majeure Event). If 4MCA terminates this Agreement as provided in
subparagraph (b) above, MTVA shall immediately pay to 4MCA all amounts due for
Premises, Services, Crews and/or Equipment actually provided during the period
prior to termination for such Force Majeure Event.
20. ASSIGNMENT

shall be null and void.

created by 4MCA hereunder, together with the results and proceeds of 4MCA's
provision of the Services, Premises, Equipment and Crews hereunder (the

States Copyright Act) for MTV Networks ("MTVN"), and (b) MTVN is the owner of
the Materials under copyright, in and for all means of exploitation now known or
hereinafter devised, upon creation of such Materials. To the extent that any of

assigns to MTVN all rights for all purposes throughout the world for the full
period of copyright and all extensions and renewals thereof in and for all means
of exploitation now known or hereinafter devised. 4MCA acknowledges and agrees

Form of Guaranty to be Executed
by Viacom International Inc.
GUARANTY
This Guaranty ("Guaranty") is entered into as of February 13, 1995 by
Viacom International Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Guarantor"), in favor of
Four Media Company Asia PTE Ltd. ("4MCA").
In order to induce 4MCA to enter into that certain Agreement dated as of
February 13, 1995 (the "Agreement") between 4MCA and MTV Asia LDC ("MTVA"),
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of (a) Guarantor and (b) MTV Asia Development
Company, Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Guarantor), and for other valuable
consideration, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, Guarantor hereby
irrevocably, absolutely, unconditionally guarantees to 4MCA the prompt, punctual
and full performance and payment when due of any and all obligations of MTVA
under the Agreement and the prompt performance of any and all of the terms,
conditions and covenants agreed to be performed by MTVA under the Agreement,
irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Agreement or any term or provision of any other document relating to the
obligations or any other circumstance, to the extent any of the foregoing might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or
guarantor (all such obligations, terms, conditions and covenants are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Obligations"). The term "Obligations" is used
herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts,
obligations and liabilities heretofore, now or hereafter made, incurred or
created under the Agreement, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether due or
not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or
undetermined, and whether recovery upon any of the Obligations may be or
hereafter become unenforceable.
This Guaranty has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Guarantor
and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand for
payment, protest, benefit of any statute of limitations affecting MTVA's
liability under the Agreement or the enforcement of this Guaranty, benefit of
any act of omission by 4MCA which directly or indirectly results in or aids the
discharge of MTVA or any of the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise,
all notices whatsoever, including, without limitation, notice of acceptance of
this Guaranty and the incurring of the Obligations, and any requirement that
4MCA exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against MTVA or any other
guarantor, or any other security for, or any other party liable for, any of the
Obligations. Guarantor specifically agrees that it will not be necessary or
required, and Guarantor shall not be entitled to require, that 4MCA file suit or
proceed to assert or obtain a claim for personal judgment against MTVA for the
Obligations or to make any effort at collection or enforcement of the
Obligations from MTVA or file suit or proceed to obtain or assert a claim for
personal judgment against any other guarantor or other party liable for the
Obligations or make any effort at collection of the
1
Obligations from any such party or exercise or assert any other right or remedy
to which 4MCA is or may be entitled in connection with the Obligations or any
guaranty thereof or assert or file any claim against the assets of MTVA or any
other person liable for this Guaranty or the Obligations, or any part thereof,
before or as a condition of enforcing the liability of Guarantor under this
Guaranty.
Until payment and performance in full of the Obligations, Guarantor waives
any right to enforce any remedy of 4MCA which 4MCA now or may hereafter have
against MTVA, any other guarantor or any other person and waives any benefit of,
or any right to participation in, any security whatsoever now or hereafter held
by 4MCA. Guarantor waives any defense Guarantor may have based upon any election
of remedies by 4MCA which impairs or nullifies Guarantor's subrogation rights or
Guarantor's rights to proceed against MTVA for reimbursement, including, without
limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any rights,
powers or remedies of MTVA in connection with any state, federal or foreign
anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or discharging the
Obligations.
The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be reinstated and revived and
the rights of 4MCA shall continue if and to the extent that for any reason any
payment or performance by or on behalf of MTVA is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored by 4MCA, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid or
such act had not been performed. The determination as to whether any such
payment or performance must be rescinded or restored shall be made by 4MCA in
its sole discretion; provided, however, that if 4MCA chooses to contest any such
matter at the request of Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold
harmless 4MCA with respect to all costs (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees) of such litigation.
This Guaranty shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by
Guarantor as of the date first above written.

irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability
of the Agreement or any term or provision of any other document relating to the
Obligations or any other circumstance, to the extent any of the foregoing might
otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or
guarantor (all such obligations, terms, conditions and covenants are hereinafter
collectively referred to as the "Obligations"). The term "Obligations" is used
herein in its most comprehensive sense and includes any and all advances, debts,
obligations and liabilities heretofore, now or hereafter made, incurred or
created under the Agreement, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether due or
not due, absolute or contingent, liquidated or unliquidated, determined or
undetermined, and whether recovery upon any of the Obligations may be or
hereafter become unenforceable.
This Guaranty has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by Guarantor
and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of Guarantor,
enforceable in accordance with its terms.
Guarantor hereby expressly waives diligence, presentment, demand for
payment, protest, benefit of any statute of limitations affecting 4MCA's
liability under the Agreement or the enforcement of this Guaranty, benefit of
any act or omission by MTVA which directly or indirectly results in or aids the
discharge or 4MCA or any of the Obligations by operation of law or otherwise,
all notices whatsoever, including, without limitation, notice of acceptance of
this Guaranty and the incurring of the Obligations, and any requirement that
MTVA exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against 4MCA or any other
guarantor, or any other security for, or any other party liable for, any of the
Obligations. Guarantor specifically agrees that it will not be necessary or
required, and Guarantor shall not be entitled to require, that MTVA file suit or
proceed to assert or obtain a claim for personal judgment against 4MCA for the
Obligations or to make any effort at collection or enforcement of the
Obligations from 4MCA or file suit or proceed to obtain or assert a claim for
personal judgment against any other guarantor or other party liable for the
Obligations or make any effort at collection of the Obligations from any such
party or exercise or assert any other right or remedy to which MTVA is or may be
entitled in connection with the Obligations or any guaranty thereof or assert or
file
1
any claim against the assets of 4MCA or any other person liable for this
Guaranty or the Obligations, or any part thereof, before or as a condition of
enforcing the liability of Guarantor under this Guaranty.
Until payment and performance in full of the Obligations, Guarantor waives
any right to enforce any remedy of MTVA which MTVA now or may hereafter have
against 4MCA, any other guarantor or any other person and waives any benefit of,
or any right to participation in, any security whatsoever now or hereafter held
by MTVA. Guarantor waives any defense Guarantor may have based upon any election
of remedies by MTVA which impairs or nullifies Guarantor's subrogation rights
or Guarantor's rights to proceed against 4MCA for reimbursement, including,
without limitation, any loss of rights Guarantor may suffer by reason of any
rights, powers or remedies of 4MCA in connection with any state, federal or
foreign anti-deficiency laws or any other laws limiting, qualifying or
discharging the Obligations.
The liability of Guarantor hereunder shall be reinstated and revived and
the rights of MTVA shall continue if and to the extent that for any reason any
payment or performance by or on behalf of 4MCA is rescinded or must be otherwise
restored by MTVA, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
reorganization or otherwise, all as though such amount had not been paid or such
act had not been performed. The determination as to whether any such payment or
performance must be rescinded or restored shall be made by MTVA in its sole
discretion; provided, however, that if MTVA chooses to contest any such matter
at the request of Guarantor, Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
MTVA with respect to all costs (including, without limitation, attorneys' fees)
of such litigation.
THIS GUARANTY SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE
LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Guaranty has been duly executed and delivered by
Guarantor as of the date first above written.
