directly or indirectly, by one or more Parent Entities (or any
Permitted Transferee) to one or more Persons other than a
Permitted Transferee shall automatically convert into one (1)
fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock upon
such disposition, provided that no such conversion shall occur
solely as a result of the pledge, hypothecation or other similar
financing transaction of any High Vote Common Stock by a Parent
Entity or any Permitted Transferee so long as the transferring
Parent Entity or Permitted Transferee continues to have the sole
and exclusive authority and right to vote the shares subject to
such pledge, hypothecation or other financing transaction.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, any share of High Vote Common
Stock transferred by a Parent Entity (or any Permitted
Transferee) pursuant to the provisions of the preceding sentence
shall, if such transfer is to any Person other than a Parent
Entity or a Wholly Owned Affiliate of a Parent Entity,
automatically convert into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable
share of Class A Common Stock (A) upon such transfer, unless the
applicable Parent Entity obtains from such transferee a voting
agreement and voting proxy, each in form and substance
satisfactory to the Corporation and the other Parent Entity (if
such other Parent Entity or its Wholly Owned Affiliates then
holds any High Vote Stock), pursuant to which the transferee
agrees to grant to the appropriate Parent Entity the right to
vote all shares of High Vote Common Stock transferred to such
Person, such vote to be at the sole discretion of the appropriate
Parent Entity, (B) upon the termination of, or the occurrence of
any event invalidating or modifying in any material respect the
voting provisions contained in, any voting agreement or voting
proxy entered into
2
pursuant to the provisions of the preceding Clause (A), and (C)
solely with respect to a transfer to an Employee of AOL, ODC

(1) with respect to transfers by AOL and its Permitted
Transferees, either individually or when aggregated with all
prior transfers of Series F Preferred Stock and High Vote Stock
to Employees of AOL, exceeds 20,371,667 shares (as such number
shall be equitably adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend,
reverse stock split, reclassification or similar transaction, and
assuming for purposes of such calculation that (x) all shares of
Series F Preferred Stock so transferred are converted into High
Vote Common Stock at the Series F Conversion Ratio and (y) all
shares of High Vote Preferred Stock so transferred are converted
into High Vote Common Stock at the applicable Conversion Ratio)
and (2) with respect to transfers by ODC and its Permitted
Transferees, either individually or when aggregated with all
prior transfers of High Vote Stock to Employees of ODC and
Cisneros Family members, exceeds 19,972,382 shares (as such

foregoing, (y) if any Permitted Transferee ceases to qualify as a
Permitted Transferee at anytime following the transfer of the
High Vote Common Stock, then each share of the High Vote Common
Stock transferred to such Permitted Transferee shall
automatically convert, at the time that the transferee ceases to
so qualify, into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of
Class A Common Stock; and (z) no transfer of High Vote Common
Stock may be made, and any such transfer shall not be deemed to
be valid by the Corporation, if such transfer would, when
combined with all other transfers of such High Vote Common Stock
previously consummated, require the Corporation to register the
Class B Common Stock and/or Class C Common Stock under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Determinations as to
the occurrence of events listed in this Clause (b)(iii)(B) of
Article FOURTH shall be made by a majority of the Board of
Directors, subject to the provisions of Clause (c) of Article

Person acquiring such ownership interest, provided that no such
conversion shall occur solely as a result of the pledge,
hypothecation or other similar financing transaction of any Class
B Common
3
Stock or Class C Common Stock by a Parent Entity or any Permitted
Transferee so long as the appropriate Parent Entity or Permitted
Transferee continues to have the sole and exclusive authority and
right to vote the shares subject to such pledge, hypothecation or
other financing transaction. For purposes of the foregoing, AOL
shall be the appropriate Parent Entity with respect to any
pledges, hypothecations or other similar financing transactions
with respect to any Class B Common Stock and ODC shall be the
appropriate Parent Entity with respect to any pledges,
hypothecations or other similar financing transactions with
respect to any Class C Common Stock."

including any shares, directly or indirectly issued upon the exercise
thereof), and as adjusted to negate any reduction in the number of

by AOL resulting from the admission of a Strategic Partner approved by
the Special Committee pursuant to Article FIFTH, Clause (d) and
equitably adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock
split, reclassification or similar transaction) (a "Class B Triggering
Event"), then each share of Class B Common Stock then issued and
outstanding, including shares issuable upon the conversion of Series B
Preferred Stock in connection with the occurrence of the Class B
Triggering Event, shall thereupon be converted automatically as of
such date into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable share of Class A
Common Stock. Upon the determination by the Corporation that such
automatic conversion has occurred, notice of such automatic conversion
shall be given by the Corporation as soon as practicable thereafter by
means of a press release and written notice to all holders of Class B
Common Stock, and the Secretary of the Corporation shall be instructed
to, and shall promptly, request from each holder of Class B Common
Stock that each such holder promptly deliver, and each such holder

from the admission of a Strategic Partner approved by the Special
Committee pursuant to Article FIFTH, Clause (d) and equitably adjusted
for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split,
reclassification or similar transaction) (a "Class C Triggering
Event"), then each share of Class C Common Stock then issued and

equivalent to that which would have been payable had the High Vote

capital stock ranking junior to the High Vote Preferred Stock. No dividends
or other distributions shall be authorized, declared, paid or set apart for

hereafter issued ranking, as to dividends, on a parity with or junior to
the High Vote Preferred Stock for any period unless full cumulative

(A) PREFERRED PREFERENCE. In the event of any voluntary or
involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the
Corporation, after payment of all amounts owing to holders of
capital stock ranking senior to the High Vote Preferred Stock,
the holders of shares of High Vote Preferred Stock then
outstanding shall be entitled to be paid out of the assets of the
Corporation available for distribution to its stockholders,
before any payment shall be made to the holders of the Common
Stock or any class or series of capital stock ranking junior to
the High Vote Preferred Stock by reason of their ownership
6
thereof, an amount equal to the Weighted Average B Liquidation Amount
per share of Series B Preferred Stock and the Weighted Average C
Liquidation Preference per share of Series C Preferred Stock
(collectively, the "Liquidation Preference"), in each case plus an
amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends, if any, to the date
of winding up, whether or not declared ("Accrued Dividends"), on the
High Vote Preferred Stock.
As used herein, the Weighted Average B Liquidation Amount at any time
shall be determined (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits,
including stock splits by way of a dividend but excluding dividends
paid pursuant to Clause (c)(ii)(A) of this Article FOURTH) according
to the following formula:
Weighted Average B Liquidation Amount = $316,337,311.4 + B Proceeds
--------------------------
116,010,456 + New B Shares
Where:
"New B Shares" equals the number of shares of Series B Preferred Stock
that were issued after March 8, 2002 for actual consideration received
by the Corporation in the form of cash or other property or through
the conversion or exercise of convertible or other securities of the
Corporation and shall include the number of shares of Series B
Preferred Stock then outstanding that were issued upon conversion of
(i) any of the Notes (including any Notes issued by the Corporation in
order to satisfy any interest payments due under such Notes) issued
pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreement, and (ii) any of the Series F
Preferred Stock, but, in each case, excluding shares of Series B
Preferred Stock issued as dividends on Series B Preferred Stock or
interest on Notes or received upon conversion of Series F Preferred
Stock received as interest or dividends on Series F Preferred Stock or
interest on Notes; and
"B Proceeds" means the aggregate dollar amount of cash proceeds and
the aggregate dollar value, as determined by the Board in good faith,
of other consideration directly or indirectly received by the
Corporation in connection with the issuance of any Series B Preferred
Stock issued after March 8, 2002 (including (without duplication) in
connection with the issuance and exercise, exchange or conversion of
securities or other rights that are exercisable or exchangeable for or
convertible into Series B Preferred Stock and specifically including
the aggregate amount of principal and interest retired by the
Corporation under the Notes upon conversion thereof and the aggregate
liquidation preference (but not accrued dividends) of any Preferred
Stock that is converted into Series B Preferred Stock).
As used herein, the Weighted Average C Liquidation Amount at any time
shall be determined (subject to equitable adjustment for stock splits,
including stock splits by way of a dividend but excluding dividends
paid pursuant to Clause (c)(ii)(A) of this Article FOURTH) according
to the following formula:
Weighted Average C Liquidation Amount = $303,848,244.44 + C Proceeds
----------------------------
111,413,994 + New C Shares
Where:
"New C Shares" equals the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock
that were issued after March 8, 2002 for actual consideration received
by the Corporation in the form of cash or other property or through
the conversion or exercise of convertible or other securities of the
Corporation; and
7
"C Proceeds" means the aggregate dollar amount of cash proceeds and
the aggregate dollar value, as determined by the Board in good faith,
of other consideration directly or indirectly received by the
Corporation in connection with the issuance of any Series C Preferred
Stock issued after March 8, 2002 (including (without duplication) in
connection with the issuance and exercise, exchange or conversion of
securities or other rights that are exercisable or exchangeable for or
convertible into Series C Preferred Stock including the aggregate
liquidation preference (but not accrued dividends) of any Preferred
Stock that is converted into Series C Preferred Stock).
If upon such liquidation, distribution or winding-up of the
Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, the assets available to
be distributed to the holders of High Vote Preferred Stock are
insufficient to permit payment in full of the Liquidation Preference
together with Accrued Dividends on the High Vote Preferred Stock to
such holders, then such assets shall be distributed first, ratably
among the holders of the Series B Preferred Stock until such time as
they shall have received a per share amount equal to the Series B
Priority, and thereafter ratably among all of the holders of High Vote
Preferred Stock in the ratio of (A) the Weighted Average B Liquidation
Amount minus the Series B Priority plus the Accrued Dividends on the
Series B Preferred Stock for each share of Series B Preferred Stock to
(B) the Weighted Average C Liquidation Amount plus Accrued Dividends
on the Series C Preferred Stock for each share of Series C Preferred
Stock. As used herein "Series B Priority" means $66,338,075 divided by
the sum of 116,010,456 plus the number of New B Shares. Promptly
following any change in the number of New B Shares or New C Shares or
in the amount of B Proceeds or C Proceeds or upon request of any
stockholder, the Chief Financial Officer of the Corporation will
provide a certificate setting forth the B Proceeds, the New B Shares,
the C Proceeds and the New C Shares."
(M) striking out Clause (c)(v)(A)(3) of Article FOURTH thereof and by
substituting in lieu of said Clause (c)(v)(A)(3) of said Article the following
new Clause:
"(3) AUTOMATIC CONVERSION UPON TRANSFER. Each share of High Vote
Preferred Stock transferred, directly or indirectly, by one or more
Parent Entities (or any Permitted Transferee) to one or more Persons
other than a Permitted Transferee shall automatically upon such
transfer convert into that number of fully paid and non-assessable
shares of the High Vote Common Stock into which it is then
convertible, at the then applicable Conversion Ratio, and each such
share of High Vote Common Stock immediately and automatically
thereafter shall convert into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable
share of Class A Common Stock, provided that no such conversion shall
occur solely as a result of the pledge, hypothecation or other similar
financing transaction of any High Vote Preferred Stock by a Parent
Entity or any Permitted Transferee so long as the transferring Parent
Entity or Permitted Transferee continues to have the sole and
exclusive authority and right to vote the shares subject to such
pledge, hypothecation or other financing transaction. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any share of High Vote Preferred Stock transferred by a
Parent Entity (or any Permitted Transferee) pursuant to the provisions
of the preceding sentence shall, if such transfer is to any Person
other than a Parent Entity or a Wholly Owned Affiliate of a Parent
Entity, automatically convert into that number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of the High Vote Common Stock into which it is
then convertible at the then applicable Conversion Ratio, and each
such share of High Vote Common Stock immediately and automatically
thereafter shall convert into one (1) fully paid and non-assessable
share of Class A Common Stock (A) upon such transfer, unless the
applicable Parent Entity obtains from such transferee a
8
voting agreement and voting proxy, each in form and substance
satisfactory to the Corporation and the other Parent Entity (if such
other Parent Entity or its Wholly Owned Affiliates then holds any High
Vote Stock), pursuant to which the transferee agrees to grant to the
appropriate Parent Entity the right to vote all shares of High Vote
Preferred Stocktransferred to such Person, such vote to be at the sole
discretion of the appropriate Parent Entity, (B) upon the termination
of, or the occurrence of any event invalidating or modifying in any
material respect the voting provisions contained in, any voting
agreement or voting proxy entered into pursuant to the provisions of
the preceding Clause (A), and (C) solely with respect to a transfer to
an Employee of AOL, ODC and/or one or more Cisneros Family members, if
(i) such transfer (1) with respect to transfers by AOL and its
Permitted Transferees, either individually or when aggregated with all
prior transfers of Series F Preferred Stock and High Vote Stock to
Employees of AOL, exceeds 20,371,667 shares (as such number shall be
equitably adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock
split, reclassification or similar transaction, and assuming for
purposes of such calculation that (x) all shares of Series F Preferred
Stock so transferred are converted into High Vote Common Stock at the
Series F Conversion Ratio and (y) all shares of High Vote Preferred
Stock so transferred are converted into High Vote Common Stock at the
applicable Conversion Ratio) and (2) with respect to transfers by ODC
and its Permitted Transferees, either individually or when aggregated
with all prior transfers of High Vote Stock to Employees of ODC and
Cisneros Family members, exceeds 19,972,382 shares (as such number

assuming for purposes of such calculation that all shares of High Vote

to be an Employee of AOL or ODC, as the case may be. For purposes of
the foregoing, AOL shall be the appropriate Parent Entity with respect
to any transfers of Series B Preferred Stock and ODC shall be the
appropriate Parent Entity with respect to any transfers of Series C
Preferred Stock. A copy of every voting agreement and voting proxy
entered into in accordance with the provisions hereof, and all
amendments thereto or modifications thereof, must be filed with the
Corporation promptly after the execution thereof. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, (y) if any Permitted Transferee ceases to qualify as a
Permitted Transferee at anytime following the transfer of the High
Vote Preferred Stock, then each share of the High Vote Preferred Stock
transferred to such Permitted Transferee shall automatically convert,
at the time that the transferee ceases to so qualify, into that number
of fully paid and non-assessable shares of the High Vote Common Stock
into which it is then convertible at the then applicable Conversion
Ratio, and each such share of High Vote Common Stock immediately and
automatically thereafter shall convert into one (1) fully paid and
non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock; and (z) no transfer of
High Vote Preferred Stock may be made, and any such transfer shall not
be deemed to be valid by the Corporation, if such transfer would, when
combined with all other transfers of such High Vote Preferred Stock
previously consummated, require the Corporation to register any of the
Class B Securities and/or Class C Securities under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Determinations as to the occurrence
of events listed in this Clause (c)(v)(A)(3) of Article FOURTH shall
be made by a majority of the Board of Directors, subject to the
provisions of Clause (c) of Article FIFTH regarding the approval of
actions with stockholders. In addition, if any Person other than a
Parent Entity, or Wholly Owned Affiliate of a Parent Entity, a
Cisneros Family member or an Employee of ODC or AOL otherwise acquires
any direct or indirect ownership interest in a share of High Vote
Preferred Stock, such share of High Vote Preferred Stock automatically
shall convert into that number of fully paid and non-assessable shares
of the High Vote Common Stock
9
into which it is then convertible at the then applicable Conversion
Ratio, and each such share of High Vote Common Stock immediately and
automatically thereafter shall convert into one (1) fully paid and
non-assessable share of Class A Common Stock, in any event, upon such
Person acquiring such ownership interest; provided that no such
conversion shall occur solely as a result of the pledge, hypothecation
or other similar financing transaction of any High Vote Preferred
Stock by a Parent Entity or any Permitted Transferee so long as the
appropriate Parent Entity or Permitted Transferee continues to have
the sole and exclusive authority and right to vote the shares subject
to such pledge, hypothecation or other financing transaction. For
purposes of the foregoing, AOL shall be the appropriate Parent Entity
with respect to any pledges, hypothecations or other similar financing
transactions with respect to any Series B Preferred Stock and ODC
shall be the appropriate Parent Entity with respect to any pledges,
hypothecations or other similar financing transactions with respect to
any Series C Preferred Stock."

substituting in lieu of said Clause (c)(v)(C)(4) of said Article the following
new Clause (c)(v)(C)(4):
(4) Upon any such conversion, no adjustment to the then
applicable Conversion Ratio shall be made for any declared but unpaid
dividends on the shares of High Vote Preferred Stock surrendered for
conversion or on the shares of Common Stock delivered upon conversion,
provided that such dividend shall be paid in cash or in shares of
capital stock into which the shares of such High Vote Preferred Stock
have been converted.
(O) striking out Clause (c)(vi)(A) of Article FOURTH thereof and by
substituting in lieu of said Clause (c)(vi)(A) of said Article the following new
Clause:
"(A) MANDATORY REDEMPTION BY THE CORPORATION. Subject to the last

funds legally available therefore all of the then outstanding shares of
High Vote Preferred Stock pursuant to this Clause (c)(vi)(A) of Article

the following schedule:
For the Series B Preferred Stock:
(1) on August 7, 2005, the Corporation shall redeem a
percentage of the shares of Series B Preferred Stock outstanding
as of such date equal to 100 multiplied by the quotient of (a)
101,858,334 divided by (b) the sum of 116,010,456 plus the number
of shares of Series B Preferred Stock that were previously issued
(i) upon conversion of the Notes and any of the Series F
Preferred Stock and (ii) as interest on the Senior Convertible
Notes (collectively, the "Third Tranche Shares") and the number
of shares of Series B Preferred Stock previously issued after

Series B Preferred Stock issued as a dividend on the Series B
Preferred Stock pursuant to Clause (c)(ii)(A) of this Article
FOURTH ("Series B Additional Shares");
(2) on April 2, 2006, the Corporation shall redeem a

14,152,122 divided by (b) the sum of 14,152,122 plus the number
of Third Tranche Shares and Series B Additional Shares;
10
(3) on March 8, 2007 or such later date upon which the
holders of the Notes who have delivered a notice of conversion of
all or a portion of their Notes shall have received their shares
of Series B Preferred Stock issuable upon such conversion, the
Corporation shall redeem a percentage of the shares of Series B
Preferred Stock outstanding as of such date equal to 100
multiplied by the quotient of (a) the number of Third Tranche
Shares divided by (b) the sum of the number of Third Tranche
Shares plus the number of Series B Additional Shares. In the
event there are no Series B Additional Shares outstanding as of
such date, then all remaining shares of Series B Preferred Stock
then outstanding, if any, will be redeemed on such date; and
(4) if any shares of Series B Preferred Stock are
outstanding after March 8, 2007, the Corporation shall redeem, on
a date 30 days following the fifth anniversary (a "Series B Fifth
Anniversary Date") of the agreement pursuant to which any Series
B Additional Shares were issued, a percentage of the shares of
Series B Preferred Stock outstanding as of such date equal to 100
multiplied by the quotient of (a) the number of Series B
Preferred Stock previously issued as contemplated by such
agreement (including pursuant to the conversion of any securities
contemplated thereby) (the "Series B Fifth Anniversary Shares")
divided by (b) the sum of the number of Series B Fifth
Anniversary Shares plus the number of any Series B Additional
Shares that are not, and were not, on a previous Series B Fifth
Anniversary Date, Series B Fifth Anniversary Shares. On the final
Series B Fifth Anniversary Redemption Date all shares of Series B

percentage of the shares of Series C Preferred Stock outstanding
as of such date equal to 100 multiplied by the quotient of (a)
97,803,960 divided by (b) the sum of 111,413,994 plus the number
of shares of Series C Preferred Stock that were previously issued
after March 8, 2002 pursuant to Clause (c)(ii)(A) of this Article

as of such date equal to 100 multiplied by the quotient of (a)
13,610,034 divided by (b) the sum of 13,610,034 plus the number
of Series C Additional Shares. In the event that there are no
Series C Additional Shares outstanding as of such date then all
remaining shares of Series C Preferred Stock then outstanding, if
any, will be redeemed on such date; and
(3) if any shares of Series C Preferred Stock are
outstanding after April 2, 2006, the Corporation shall redeem, on
a date 30 days following the fifth anniversary (a "Series C Fifth
Anniversary Date") of the agreement pursuant to which any Series
C Additional Shares were issued, a percentage of the shares of
Series C Preferred Stock outstanding as of such date equal to 100
multiplied by the quotient of (a) the number of Series C
Preferred Stock previously issued as contemplated by such
agreement (including pursuant to the conversion of any securities
contemplated thereby) (the "Series C Fifth Anniversary Shares")

Shares that are not, and were not, on a previous Series C Fifth
Anniversary Date, Series C Fifth Anniversary Shares. On the final

Each such date is referred to herein as a "Redemption Date." Upon any
Mandatory Redemption, the Corporation shall redeem from each holder of
High Vote Preferred Stock then outstanding the applicable percentage
or amount of each Series of High Vote Preferred Stock then held by
such holder. The "Redemption Price" per share of High Vote Preferred
Stock to be redeemed at each Mandatory Redemption shall mean an amount
in cash or shares of Class A Common Stock (valued at its then Fair
Market Value), at the Corporation's option, equal to the sum of the
Weighted Average Liquidation Amount attributable to such share plus an
amount equal to all accrued but unpaid dividends attributable to such
share as of the applicable Redemption Date. Notwithstanding anything
in this Clause (c)(vi) no Mandatory Redemption shall take place on any
Redemption Date with respect to the number of shares of the applicable
High Vote Preferred Stock that have been converted with respect to
which a conversion notice has been delivered pursuant to Clause (c)(v)
and which have not previously resulted in a reduction in the number of
shares of such High Vote Preferred Stock on a previous Redemption date
pursuant to this sentence.
