and (v) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the selling Holders, their counsel and any managing underwriters to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company; (n) make available for inspection by the selling Holders, any representative of such Holders, any underwriter participating in any disposition of Registrable Securities, and any attorney or accountant retained by such selling Holder or underwriters, at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, all financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company and its subsidiaries, and cause the officers, directors, agents and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to supply all information in each case reasonably requested by any such Holder, representative, underwriter, attorney or accountant in connection with the Registration Statement; provided, however, that any information that is determined in good faith by the Company to be of a confidential nature at the time of delivery of such information shall be kept confidential by such Persons, unless: (i) disclosure of such information is required by court or administrative order or is necessary to respond to inquiries of regulatory authorities; (ii) disclosure of such information, in the opinion of counsel to such Person, is required by law; (iii) such information becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure or failure to safeguard by such Person;

(p) require each selling Holder to furnish to the Company information regarding such Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as is required by law to be disclosed in the Registration Statement, and the Company may exclude from such 14 registration the Registrable Securities of any such selling Holder who unreasonably fails to furnish such information within a reasonable time after receiving such request. If the Registration Statement refers to any such Holder by name or otherwise as the holder of any securities of the Company, then such Holder shall have the right to require (if such reference to such Holder by name or otherwise is not required by the Securities Act or any similar Federal statute then in force) the deletion of the reference to such Holder in any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement filed or prepared subsequent to the time that such reference ceases to be required; and (q) not file a Registration Statement to which the Holder of a majority of the Registrable Securities covered thereby or its counsel or any managing underwriter shall reasonably object in writing within three (3) Business Days of their receipt thereof.

Section 7. REGISTRATION EXPENSES Except to the extent limited by the applicable state law, all fees and expenses incident to the performance of or compliance with this Agreement by the Company shall be borne by the Company whether or not pursuant to an Underwritten Offering and whether or not any Registration Statement is filed or becomes effective and whether or not any Registrable Securities are sold pursuant to any Registration Statement.

Section 8. INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION Section 8.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY. The Company shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, indemnify and hold harmless AOLTW, AOL, Aspen, Atlantis, each Holder and any seller of any Registrable Securities covered by any Registration Statement which is or was a party hereto and the officers, directors, affiliates, partners, employees, agents, brokers, investment advisors and counsel of each of them and each underwriter of the Registrable Securities and their officers, directors, affiliates, partners and any broker or dealer through whom such shares may be sold and each Person, if any, who controls (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act) such indemnified Person or any such underwriter (such indemnified Persons, the "INDEMNIFIED SELLING PERSONS"), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, costs of preparation and reasonable attorneys' fees) and expenses (collectively, "LOSSES"), as incurred, arising out of or relating to any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus or any form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary Prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any Prospectus or form of Prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus or form of Prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements or omissions are based solely upon 16 information regarding such Indemnified Selling Person furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnified Selling Person expressly for use therein, which information was reasonably relied on by the Company for use therein or to the extent that such information relates to such Indemnified Selling Person or such Indemnified Selling Person's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Indemnified Selling Person expressly for use in any Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. The Company shall notify the Indemnified Selling Persons under this Section 8.1 promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any Proceeding of which the Company is aware in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Such indemnity and reimbursement of costs and expenses shall survive the sale, transfer or other disposition of any Registrable Securities by any Indemnified Selling Person. Section 8.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY HOLDERS. Each Holder of Registrable Securities that are included in the securities as to which any registration under Section 2 or Section 3 is being effected shall, severally and not jointly, indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, officers, agents and employees, each Person who controls the Company (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), and the directors, officers, agents or employees of such controlling Persons, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final judgment not subject to appeal or review) arising solely out of or based solely upon any untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any Prospectus, or any form of Prospectus, or arising solely out of or based solely upon any untrue statement or omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or omission is contained or omitted, as the case may be, in any information furnished in writing by such Holder to the Company specifically for inclusion in the Registration Statement or such Prospectus and that such information was reasonably relied upon by the Company for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or to the extent that such information relates to such Holder or such Holder's proposed method of distribution of Registrable Securities and was reviewed and expressly approved in writing by such Holder expressly for use in the Registration Statement, such Prospectus or such form of Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Section 8.3 CONDUCT OF INDEMNIFICATION PROCEEDINGS. (a) If any Proceeding shall be brought or asserted against any Person entitled to indemnity hereunder (an "INDEMNIFIED PERSON"), such Indemnified Person promptly shall notify the Person from whom indemnity is sought (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY") in writing, and the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense thereof, including the employment of counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Person and the payment of all fees and expenses incurred in connection with defense thereof; provided, that the failure of any Indemnified Person to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations or liabilities pursuant to this Agreement, except (and only) to the 17 extent that it shall be finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which determination is not subject to appeal or further review) that such failure shall have proximately and materially adversely prejudiced the Indemnifying Party. (b) An Indemnified Person shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the defense thereof, provided, however, the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Person or Persons unless: (1) the Indemnifying Party has agreed in writing to pay such fees and expenses; or (2) the Indemnifying Party shall have failed promptly to assume the defense of such Proceeding and to employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Person in any such Proceeding; or (3) the named parties to any such Proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Person shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Party (in which case, if such Indemnified Person notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense thereof and such counsel shall be at the reasonable expense of the Indemnifying Party). The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such Proceeding effected without its written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. No Indemnifying Party shall, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Person, effect any settlement of any pending Proceeding in respect of which any Indemnified Person is a party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Person from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such Proceeding. (c) All fees and expenses of the Indemnified Person (including reasonable fees and expenses to the extent incurred in connection with investigating or preparing to defend such Proceeding in a manner not inconsistent with this Section) shall be paid to the Indemnified Person, as incurred, within ten (10) Business Days of written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party (regardless of whether it is ultimately determined that an Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification hereunder; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may require such Indemnified Person to undertake to reimburse all such fees and expenses to the extent it is finally judicially determined that such Indemnified Person is not entitled to indemnification hereunder). Section 8.4 CONTRIBUTION. (a) If a claim for indemnification under Section 8.1 or 8.2 is unavailable to an Indemnified Person because of a failure or refusal of a governmental authority to enforce such indemnification in accordance with its terms (by reason of public policy or otherwise), then each Indemnifying Party, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnified Person, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of such Losses, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Person in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that 18 resulted in such Losses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such Indemnifying Party and Indemnified Person shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Person, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of any Losses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth herein, any reasonable attorneys' or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any Proceeding to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. In no event shall the liability of any selling Holder hereunder be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Registrable Securities giving rise to such indemnification obligation. (b) The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Holder shall be required to contribute, in the aggregate, any amount in excess of the amount by which the proceeds actually received by such Holder from the sale of the Registrable Securities subject to the Proceeding exceeds the amount of any damages that such Holder has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. (c) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section 8 are in addition to any liability that the Indemnifying Parties may have to the Indemnified Persons. Section 8.5 RULE 144. The Company covenants that: (a) it will file the reports required to be filed by the Company under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, so as to enable the Holders to sell Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (b) it shall cooperate with any Holder in connection with any sale, transfer or other disposition by such Holder of any Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (c) it will take such action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell its Common Stock without registration under the 19 Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, including providing any legal opinions; and (d) upon the request of any Holder, it shall deliver to such Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements. Section 9. TERM OF REGISTRATION RIGHTS. The rights of Holders with respect to the registration rights granted pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in effect, subject to the terms hereof, so long as there are Registrable Securities (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, rights granted pursuant to Section 8) or securities which are directly or indirectly convertible or exchangeable for Registrable Securities issued and outstanding. Section 10. MISCELLANEOUS. Section 10.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENTS. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters.

In the event of a breach by the Company or by a Holder of any of their obligations under this Agreement, each Holder or the Company, as the case may be, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law and under this Agreement, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Agreement. The Company and each Holder agree that monetary damages would not provide adequate 20 compensation for any losses incurred by reason of a breach by it of any of the provisions of this Agreement and hereby further agrees that, in the event of any action for specific performance in respect of such breach, it shall waive the defense that a remedy at law would be adequate. Section 10.4 NO INCONSISTENT AGREEMENTS. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has, as of the date hereof, nor shall the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, on or after the date of this Agreement, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to the Holders in this Agreement or otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries has previously entered into any agreement granting any registration rights with respect to any of its securities to any Person. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall not grant to any Person the right to request the Company to register any securities of the Company under the Securities Act unless the rights so granted are subject in all respects to the prior rights in full of the Holders, and are not otherwise in conflict or inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Section 10.5 AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No provision of this Agreement may be waived or amended except in a written instrument signed, in the case of an amendment, by the Company and the Holders; or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom enforcement of any such waiver is sought. No waiver of any default with respect to any provision, condition or requirement of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a continuing waiver in the future or a waiver of any other provision, condition or requirement hereof, nor shall any delay or omission of any party to exercise any right hereunder in any manner impair the exercise of any such right accruing to it thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such amendment shall be effective to the extent that it applies to less than all of the Holders. The Company shall not offer or pay any consideration to a Holder for consenting to such an amendment or waiver unless the same consideration is offered to each Holder and the same consideration is paid to each Holder which consents to such amendment or waiver. Section 10.6 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties. The rights of each Holder hereunder, including the right to have the Company register for resale Registrable Securities in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be automatically assignable by each Holder together with the Registrable Securities, or the securities into or for which such Registrable Securities are convertible, exchangeable or exercisable, to which such rights relate if: (a) the Holder agrees in writing with the transferee or assignee to assign such rights, and a copy of such agreement is furnished to the Company within a reasonable time after such assignment, (b) the Company is, within a reasonable time after such transfer or assignment, furnished with written notice of (i) the name and address of such transferee or assignee, and (ii) the securities with respect to which such registration rights are being transferred or assigned, (c) the transferee or assignee agrees in writing with the Company to be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement, (e) such transfer shall have been made in accordance with the applicable requirements of any agreement applicable to the transfer of such shares, including, without limitation, the Stockholders' Agreement and (f) in the case of an assignee of AOLTW that is an AOLTW Subsidiary, such AOLTW Subsidiary has executed and delivered to the Company an AOLTW Subsidiary Counterpart Signature Page. The rights to assignment shall apply to the Holders' (and to subsequent) successors and assigns. 21 Section 10.7 NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement is intended for the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns and is not for the benefit of, nor may any provision hereof be enforced by, any other person. Section 10.8 CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. The remedies provided herein are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law. Section 10.9 SEVERABILITY. If any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full force and effect and shall in no way be affected, impaired or invalidated, and the parties hereto shall use their reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such term, provision, covenant or restriction. It is hereby stipulated and declared to be the intention of the parties that they would have executed the remaining terms, provisions, covenants and restrictions without including any of such that may be hereafter declared invalid, illegal, void or unenforceable. Section 10.10 GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement, and the rights and liabilities of the parties hereunder, shall be governed by the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, USA without giving effect to its rules relating to conflict of laws. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in the State of Delaware for all disputes arising under or related to this Agreement, which are subject to litigation hereunder, and to service of process in any jurisdiction in any such action by means of notice delivered pursuant to Section 10.2 hereof; provided, however to permit a party either to enforce a judgment or to seek injunctive relief, each party also irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the courts in the place where such judgment enforcement or injunctive relief is sought. Each party waives any objection it otherwise may have to the personal jurisdiction and venue of the courts designated in this Section 10.10.
