Executive Summary

• We recommend escrowing roughly $10.5M of the closing price to protect against an earnings miss

• If Davies hits $3.4M of EBITDA this year, he receives the escrowed funds in full

• If not, he can still recapture the escrowed amount through the earn-out (still up to $75M in total consideration)

Embassy Row Performance • Embassy Row Jan–May earnings are $1.5M worse than last year

• Power of 10 is moving to GSN

• Several smaller shows are off the air (WSOPC, Grand Slam, Chain Reaction); entire slate has become much more speculative

Structuring Alternatives

LOI Status

• We have negotiated down to a handful of issues

– Non-compete language

– Recoup of our $1.8M

– Cap on earnings required for Davies to receive earn-out

– Davies NYC tax issue

Model Assumptions

Base Case Davies Case

• Slate: Davies’ slate plus format or

syndicate successes; add acquired

product; eliminate CB on new shows;

standardize profits by show type

• Power of 10: Includes profits from Power

of 10 (format/syndication)

• Format Profits: Format profits are at

slightly below the industry average

($3.0M)

• Local Production: Local production in

the Germany +$3M (for Power of 10)

• Sports & Film: Eliminated

• Interactive Profit: Starts at $1.5M (in-

line with Davies) and increases 5%

annually (less than Davies)

• Factual Profits from ER: From ER’s

business plan

• Incremental Investment: Add 10-15 HC,

$1-2M in development/acquisition

budget, $500K+ in self-funded pilots

• Slate: Same but includes chargebacks

and Davies’ estimated profits by show

• Interactive Profits: Unchanged from

Davies’ forecast

• Sports and Film: Unchanged from

Davies’ forecast

• Other: All other assumptions same as

base case

Updates:

• Power of 10: Moves to GSN (not CBS); no first run versions; format declines; no local language production

• Eliminated canceled shows

• Update slate; better align base case cost per show with Davies’ assumptions

• Add one finance headcount

• Escrowed portion of purchase price - $10.5MM (see pg. 2)

• Revised FY09 forecast (see pg. 3)

• An acquisition only appears feasible if a portion of the purchase price is escrowed

• Confirm our willingness/ability to hold the line on escrowing the up-front payment

– Revisit feasibility of escrow with Davies given that he has previously indicated that a deal

with less than $25M in initial consideration is unacceptable

• Finalize recommendation to senior management

– Either acquire with escrow, or

– Renew

$1.0M a year for 3 years; non-recoupable; any 3rd party backend participants will

be taken off the top and not directly from Davies’ share pending SPT approval

Consider use of budgeted $3.0M Embassy Row loss to cover other deals

• Schedule meeting with Lynton/Hendler/Calkins for the week of 7/7/08

Amortization Detail

Amortization is modeled as follows:

• Identify ER’s asset value at time of close

• Amortize over expected lives (some up to 10 years)

IF…

• Asset value is less than total consideration, amortization is based on asset value

• Asset value is greater than total consideration, amortization is capped at consideration
