AMENDED AND RESTATED BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT
     AMENDED AND RESTATED BUSINESS COMBINATION AGREEMENT, dated as of March 5, 2010 (as originally executed, the “Original BCA”), and amended by Amendment No.1 dated as of March 15, 2010, Amendment No.2 dated as of April 5, 2010 and Amendment No. 3 dated as of May 7, 2010, and as further amended and restated as of August 4, 2010 (this “Agreement”), by and among Promotora de Informaciones, S.A., a Spanish sociedad anónima (“PRISA”), Liberty Acquisition Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Liberty”), and Liberty Acquisition Holdings Virginia, Inc., a Virginia corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty (“Liberty Virginia”).
W I T N E S S E T H :
     WHEREAS, each of PRISA, Liberty and Liberty Virginia desires to enter into the strategic business combination transaction provided for herein for the purpose of effecting an increase of capital in kind of PRISA through an exchange of securities involving the delivery of all outstanding Liberty common and preferred shares and warrants against newly issued shares of PRISA, which will be reflected in the books and accounts of PRISA as the subscription of such newly issued shares by a depositary bank acting in a purely fiduciary capacity for the benefit of the actual owners of the new shares of PRISA (the former common and preferred share and warrant holders of Liberty) which, upon receipt of such shares, will issue American depositary shares to Liberty’s former common and preferred share and warrant holders;
     WHEREAS, notwithstanding that the above-referenced increase of capital in kind of PRISA does not legally require the application of preemptive rights in favor of the existing shareholders of PRISA, it is considered advisable, taking into that account that the parties to this Agreement desire to carry out the Reorganization (as defined below), that PRISA either grants PRISA Warrants (as defined below) in favor of the existing shareholders of PRISA or, if required by the CNMV, certain preemptive rights, all subject to the approval of the CNMV; and for such purposes, prior to effecting the Reorganization, PRISA will submit to its shareholders for their approval an increase of capital through the PRISA Warrants and/or if required by the CNMV and subject to its approval, an increase in capital in cash granting the shareholders of PRISA the opportunity to subscribe for new shares on the terms described in this Agreement;
     WHEREAS, for the above purposes, (i) Liberty will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, merge with and into Liberty Virginia under and in accordance with the Virginia Stock Corporation Act (as amended, the “VSCA”) and the Delaware General Corporation Law (as amended, the “DGCL”), with Liberty Virginia surviving such merger (the “Reincorporation Merger”), and (ii) Liberty Virginia and PRISA will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, undertake a statutory share exchange pursuant to the Spanish Corporation Law of 1989 (Texto Refundido de la Ley de Sociedades Anónimas aprobado por el Real Decreto Legislativo 1564/1989) (as amended, the “SCL,” any reference to the SCL or any article of the SCL shall be understood to be a reference to the New Spanish Corporation Law (Ley de Sociedads de Capital) dated July 10, 2010, or the corresponding article of such law, which will come into effect on September 1, 2010) and the VSCA, such that common and preferred shares of Liberty Virginia will be exchanged for newly issued shares of PRISA and cash consideration, as a result of which Liberty Virginia will become a wholly owned Subsidiary of PRISA (the “Share Exchange” and, together with the Reincorporation Merger, the “Reorganization”);

 


 

     WHEREAS, the Reorganization is subject to certain conditions precedent set forth herein in Article X, including, among others, requirements to the effect that: (i) that stockholders of Liberty holding fewer than thirty percent of the Liberty common shares issued in the IPO elect to exercise their right to require Liberty to redeem their common shares in connection with the Reorganization, (ii) that the PRISA Control Group (as defined herein) maintain, directly or indirectly, subsequent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, a minimum ownership share greater than or equal to thirty percent of the issued and outstanding share capital of PRISA on a fully diluted basis, (iii) that the Reorganization shall have been approved on the terms set forth herein by, and the necessary filings made with, the Spanish regulatory authorities and the registration of the PRISA Shares to be issued in the Reorganization shall have been cleared by the applicable regulatory authorities in the United States and/or Spain and (iv) that the PRISA Shareholder Approval, the Liberty Shareholder Approval and the Liberty Warrantholder Approval (as such terms are defined herein) shall have been obtained;
     WHEREAS, for the purposes of ascertaining the view of the Spanish stock market regulatory authorities, prior to entering into the Original BCA, PRISA discussed the terms and conditions of the Reorganization with the CNMV, having prepared together with Liberty, for those purposes, the transaction summary attached hereto as Annex I;
     WHEREAS, it is the intent of the parties hereto that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Reincorporation Merger shall constitute a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a)(1)(F) of the Code, and that this Agreement shall constitute a “plan of reorganization” for the purposes of Sections 354 and 361 of the Code;
     WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition to Liberty’s willingness to enter into the Original BCA, certain shareholders of PRISA entered into an agreement (the “PRISA Support Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of the Original BCA whereby, among other things, such shareholders have agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, with Liberty to vote their shares of PRISA in favor of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements;
     WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition of PRISA’s willingness to enter into the Original BCA, the Sponsors entered into an agreement with PRISA (the “Sponsors Support Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of the Original BCA, whereby, among other things, such Persons have agreed to vote all of the Liberty Warrants held by such Persons in favor of the Warrant Amendment Agreement;
     WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition of PRISA’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, the Sponsors are entering into an amended and restated agreement with Liberty (the “Sponsor Surrender Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, whereby, among other things, such Persons have agreed to sell to Liberty all of their Liberty Warrants and a portion of their shareholdings of Liberty for nominal value;

-2-


 

     WHEREAS, as an inducement to and condition of PRISA’s willingness to enter into the Original BCA, Nicolas Berggruen and Martin Franklin entered into an agreement with PRISA (the “Sponsor Indemnification Agreement”) simultaneously with the execution of the Original BCA whereby, among other things, such Persons have agreed, from and after the Exchange Effective Time, to indemnify PRISA and its Affiliates with respect to certain matters; and
     WHEREAS, the parties, having completed a due diligence process with respect to the business activities of the other party and having found no impediment to proceeding with the Reorganization, desire to make certain representations, warranties and agreements in connection with the Reorganization and also to prescribe certain conditions to the Reorganization.
     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, representations, warranties and agreements contained herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the parties agree as follows:

In the event any such funds are not fully available for that purpose, the parties agree that prior to proceeding with the Reorganization it will be necessary to revise said clauses (b) through (f) to reflect the unavailability of any such proceeds to accomplish the economic objectives reflected therein.
          (i) Exercise of Election.
          (i) All elections made in accordance with this Section 3.5 shall be made on a form designed for that purpose and mutually acceptable to Liberty and PRISA (a “Form of Election”), which Form of Election will be filed as an exhibit to the F-4 and mailed to the holders of record of shares of Liberty Common Stock as of the record date for the Liberty Stockholder Meeting (the “Liberty Record Date”).

Any shares of Liberty Common Stock for which the holder of record has not, as of the Election Date and Time, properly submitted a valid Form of Election to the Exchange Agent shall be deemed Non-Electing Shares and entitled to receive the consideration set forth in Section 3.5(a)(iii). After a Cash Election or a Mixed Consideration Election is validly made with respect to any shares of Liberty Common Stock, no further registration of transfers of such shares shall be made on the stock transfer books of Liberty Virginia, unless and until such Cash Election or Mixed Consideration Election is properly revoked pursuant to Section 3.5(f)(v). In addition, all Forms of Election shall be automatically revoked if the Exchange Agent is notified in writing by PRISA and Liberty that this Agreement has been terminated pursuant to Article XI.
          (iv) PRISA shall have the discretion, which it may delegate in whole or in part to the Exchange Agent, to determine whether Forms of Election have been properly completed, signed and timely submitted or to disregard defects in forms. Any such determination of PRISA or the Exchange Agent shall be conclusive and binding, absent manifest error. Neither PRISA nor the Exchange Agent shall be under any obligation to notify any Person of any defect in a Form of Election submitted to the Exchange Agent. Any shares of Liberty Common Stock for which the holder of record is deemed to have not submitted a valid Election on or prior to the Election Date and Time shall be deemed to be Non-Electing Shares and entitled to receive the consideration set forth in Section 3.5(a)(iii).
          (v) Any Cash Election or Mixed Consideration Election may be revoked with respect to all or any portion of the shares of Liberty Common Stock subject thereto by the holder who submitted the applicable Form of Election by written notice received by the Exchange Agent prior to the Election Date and Time. If a Cash Election or Mixed Consideration Election is revoked with respect to Liberty Common Stock represented by a Liberty Common Certificate, such Liberty Common Certificate shall be promptly returned to the holder that submitted the same to the Exchange Agent.
          (vi) The Exchange Agent shall make all the computations contemplated by this Section 3.5, including the determination of the number of Cash Electing Shares, the number of Mixed Consideration Electing Shares and Non-Electing Shares and, after consultation with PRISA and Liberty, all such computations will be conclusive and binding on the former holders of shares of the Liberty Stock absent manifest error. The Exchange Agent may, with the agreement of PRISA and Liberty, make such reasonable rules as are consistent with this Section 3.5 for the implementation of the Elections provided for herein as shall be necessary or desirable to effect fully such Elections.
          (j) If, between the date of this Agreement and the Exchange Effective Time, PRISA, Liberty or Liberty Virginia undergoes a reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, issues a stock dividend, or effects a stock split or reverse stock split, or other similar change in capitalization (other than the Reincorporation Merger), an appropriate and proportionate adjustment shall be made to the Per Share Cash Election Consideration, the Per Share Mixed Election Consideration, the Aggregate Series A Consideration, the Aggregate Series B Consideration, the Aggregate Series C Consideration and the Aggregate Series D Consideration and Warrant Consideration in order to preserve the economic benefits of the Reorganization to the parties.

Certificate or Liberty Warrant for exchange and cancellation, together with such properly completed letter of transmittal, duly executed, such Liberty Virginia Stockholder or Liberty Warrantholder shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor an ADR representing that number of whole PRISA ADSs in book entry form to which such securityholder shall have become entitled pursuant to the provisions of Article III and the Warrant Amendment Agreement, Fractional Share Cash, if any, the Per Share Mixed Consideration Election Cash, and any cash amounts due in respect of the Per Share Series A Consideration, the Per Share Series B Consideration, Per Share Series C Consideration and the Per Share Series D Consideration and, in the case of Liberty Warrantholders, cash pursuant to the terms of the Warrant Amendment Agreement.

          (e) No dividend or distribution with respect to the Per Share Mixed Election Consideration shall be payable on or with respect to any fractional share, and fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a shareholder of PRISA.

     11.4 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Exchange Effective Time, the parties hereto, by action taken or authorized by their respective Board of Directors, may, to the extent legally allowed, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein; provided, however, that after any approval of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement by the respective stockholders of Liberty or PRISA, there may not be, without further approval of such stockholders, any extension or waiver of this Agreement or any portion thereof that reduces the amount or changes the form of the consideration to be delivered to the holders of Liberty Common Stock hereunder, other than as contemplated by this Agreement, or that under applicable Law otherwise requires the further approval of such shareholders. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument signed on behalf of such party, but such extension or waiver or failure to insist on strict compliance with an obligation, covenant, agreement or condition shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure.

When a reference is made in this Agreement to Sections, Exhibits or Schedules, such reference shall be to a Section of or Exhibit or Schedule to this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

          (a) This Agreement (including the Schedules, Exhibits and Annexes hereto and documents and the instruments referred to herein, except in the case of any inconsistency between such document or instrument and this Agreement, in which case this Agreement shall govern) and the Confidentiality Agreement constitute the entire agreement and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.
          (b) If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of Law, or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any party. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated hereby be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.
     12.7 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the Laws of Spain; provided, that any action or transaction contemplated to be taken or effected hereunder which can only validly be taken or effected under the Laws of the United States of America or any of the several States shall be governed and construed in accordance with the such applicable Laws. The respective obligations of the parties to this Agreement, whether arising by operation of law or otherwise, shall be performed to the fullest extent in compliance with the principle of good faith. In particular, PRISA, by performing the obligations undertaken under this Agreement, will submit to its shareholders those corporate resolutions necessary to comply with this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing obligations in any manner whatsoever, PRISA, in connection with such submission, shall take into account the interests of its shareholders and the corporate interests of the company.
     12.8 Publicity. Except as otherwise required by applicable Law or the rules of the AMEX or the CNMV, neither Liberty, Liberty Virginia or PRISA shall, or shall permit any of its Subsidiaries to, and Liberty and Liberty Virginia shall cause their respective Affiliates not to, issue or

cause the publication of any press release or other public announcement with respect to, or otherwise make any public statement concerning, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement without the consent of PRISA, in the case of a proposed announcement or statement by Liberty or Liberty Virginia, or Liberty, in the case of a proposed announcement or statement by PRISA, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The initial press release relating to this Agreement shall be a joint press release the text of which has been agreed to by each of PRISA and Liberty. Thereafter, each of PRISA and Liberty shall, to the extent reasonably practicable, consult with each other before issuing any press release or otherwise making any public statements with respect to this Agreement or the Reorganization otherwise permitted by this Section 12.8.
     12.9 Assignment; Third Party Beneficiaries. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations shall be assigned by any of the parties hereto (whether by operation of Law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other parties. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement (including the documents and instruments referred to herein) is not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.
     12.10 Submission to Jurisdiction; Waivers; Consent to Service of Process.
          (a) Each of PRISA, Liberty and Liberty Virginia irrevocably agree that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect hereof brought by another party hereto or its successors or assigns may be brought and determined in any tribunal sitting in the City of Madrid, Kingdom of Spain, and each of PRISA, Liberty and Liberty Virginia hereby (i) irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or proceeding for itself and in respect to its property, generally and unconditionally, to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court and (iii) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated hereby in any tribunal other than a tribunal sitting in the City of Madrid, Kingdom of Spain. Any service of process to be made in such action or proceeding may be made by delivery of process in accordance with the notice provisions contained in Section 12.3. Each of PRISA, Liberty and Liberty Virginia hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, (i) the defense of sovereign immunity, (ii) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 12.10, (iii) that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and (iv) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law that (A) the suit, action or proceeding in any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (B) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is improper and (C) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts.

-72-


 

          (b) Each of Liberty and Liberty Virginia hereby appoints Garrigues, with offices on the date hereof as set forth in Section 12.3, as its authorized agent (the “Authorized Agent”), upon whom process may be served in any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any transaction contemplated by this Agreement that may be instituted in any court described in Section 12.10(a).
     12.11 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement was not performed in accordance with its specified terms or was otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
     12.12 Disclosure Schedules; Knowledge.
          (a) Inclusion of information in the PRISA Disclosure Schedule or the Liberty Disclosure Schedule (each, a “Schedule” and together, the “Schedules”) shall not be construed as an admission of liability under any applicable Law or that such information contained therein is (i) material to the business, operations, assets, liabilities, financial condition or results of operations of a party, or (ii) a representation or warranty that a potential consequence will occur as described. The Schedules set forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular section or subsection of this Agreement to which the items or information in such schedule relates; provided, however, that any information set forth in one section or a subsection of a Schedule pertaining to representations and warranties and covenants of a party shall be deemed to apply to each other section or subsection of such party’s Schedules pertaining to its representations, warranties and covenants to the extent that it is reasonably apparent on its face from a reading of such disclosure that it is relevant to such other sections or subsections of the party’s Schedules.
          (b) Notwithstanding the failure of a representation or warranty contained in Article VI or Article VII, as applicable, to be true and accurate, the party making such representation or warranty shall be deemed not to have so breached if the other party or any of its Affiliates had actual or constructive knowledge of such breach or the facts giving rise to such breach, including knowledge gained from materials made available to it during such party’s due diligence investigation. Section 12.12 of the PRISA Disclosure Schedule identifies the materials included in the electronic data room made available to Liberty in connection with its due diligence investigation the contents of which materials the parties shall be deemed to have actual knowledge.

Schedule I
Terms of PRISA Class B Convertible Non-Voting Shares
TÉRMINOS Y CONDICIONES DE LAS ACCIONES SIN VOTO CONVERTIBLES CLASE B DE PRISA
Las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B gozarán de los derechos previstos en los artículos 98 y sigs. de la Ley de Sociedades de Capital y en los Estatutos sociales de esta Compañía, modificados según lo acordado en el Business Combination Agreement, modificado y refundido, cuyo régimen estará concretado en el acuerdo de emisión de las mismas con las siguientes características:
a)   Derecho al dividendo
Los titulares de acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrán derecho a percibir el dividendo mínimo anual en metálico de 0,175 euros anuales desde la fecha de su emisión, siempre que existan beneficios distribuibles, de acuerdo con los términos y con las limitaciones previstas en el artículo 273 de la Ley de Sociedades de Capital, o siempre que existan reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, de acuerdo con lo previsto en este documento, y siempre que no existan restricciones legales a dicho pago.
A los efectos de facilitar el pago del dividendo mínimo la reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrá carácter indisponible hasta que las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B no hayan sido convertidas en acciones ordinarias Clase A y no se hayan satisfecho íntegramente los dividendos mínimos a que se refiere este documento. Sin perjuicio de su carácter indisponible, la reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B podrá ser utilizada para el pago del dividendo mínimo y para el desembolso del valor nominal de las acciones ordinarias que excedan del número de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B que se convierten, en el caso de que la relación de conversión fuera distinta de 1 a 1 en función de lo señalado en el apartado b) siguiente.
Existiendo beneficios distribuibles suficientes en un determinado ejercicio, la Sociedad está obligada a acordar el reparto del dividendo mínimo a que se refiere el párrafo anterior. Si la Sociedad tuviera beneficios distribuibles durante un ejercicio pero no fueran suficientes para repartir íntegramente el dividendo mínimo a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, el importe del beneficio distribuible disponible deberá destinarse, en su totalidad, al pago del dividendo a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, a prorrata entre ellas. Los dividendos mínimos no distribuidos, por insuficiencia del beneficio distribuible, se repartirán, en la parte restante, con cargo a la reserva por prima de emisión constituida con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B.

 


 

Si la reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tampoco fuera suficiente para repartir íntegramente el dividendo mínimo a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, el importe íntegro de dicha reserva deberá destinarse, en su totalidad, al pago del dividendo a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, a prorrata entre ellas.
Los dividendos mínimos no distribuidos total o parcialmente, por insuficiencia del beneficio distribuible o de la reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, serán acumulables.
El dividendo mínimo que corresponda a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B deberá ser pagado tan pronto como sea posible, una vez celebrada la Junta General de Accionistas Ordinaria de cada ejercicio y en todo caso, antes del 30 de septiembre de cada año. Los dividendos mínimos se pagarán respecto del ejercicio finalizado al que se refieran las Cuentas Anuales aprobadas en la Junta General Ordinaria que acuerde el pago del dividendo mínimo, salvo para el primer ejercicio, en que el dividendo anual mínimo se multiplicará por una fracción cuyo numerador será el número de días transcurridos desde la fecha de emisión hasta el 31 de diciembre de 2010 y el denominador 365.
En el supuesto de conversión, los titulares de acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrán derecho a recibir en metálico, antes de o el día en que les sean entregadas las acciones ordinarias resultantes de la conversión, cualquier dividendo mínimo no pagado antes de esa fecha (incluyendo la parte proporcional del dividendo mínimo que corresponda al número de días transcurridos desde el inicio del año en que se produjo la conversión), en tanto y en cuanto existan beneficios distribuibles o reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B.
Una vez acordado el dividendo mínimo, los titulares de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrán derecho al mismo dividendo que corresponda, en su caso, a las acciones ordinarias Clase A.
A los efectos de posibilitar el reparto del dividendo mínimo anual a favor de los accionistas titulares de acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, PRISA ejercitará sus derechos de voto respecto de todas sus filiales, en la medida legal y contractualmente posible, para que se repartan los beneficios distribuibles disponibles de dichas filiales a sus respectivos socios, y en su caso, finalmente, a PRISA.
El dividendo mínimo correspondiente a las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B se pagará siempre en metálico.
b)   Conversión
Las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B serán convertibles en las siguientes condiciones:
(i)     A opción de cada titular de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, cada acción sin voto convertible Clase B podrá convertirse en una acción ordinaria Clase A, en cualquier momento.

I-2


 

(ii)     42 meses después de la fecha de emisión, las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B se convertirán obligatoriamente en acciones ordinarias Clase A, a razón de una acción ordinaria Clase A por cada acción sin voto convertible Clase B.
No obstante, en el supuesto de que la media de las cotizaciones medias ponderadas de la acción ordinaria Clase A de la Sociedad de las 20 sesiones bursátiles inmediatamente anteriores al día en que se cumplan los 42 meses desde la fecha de emisión computados de fecha a fecha, en el Mercado Continuo español, haya sido inferior a 2,00 euros, la relación de conversión se modificará como sigue: el número de acciones ordinarias de Clase A a emitir por la conversión de cada acción sin voto convertible Clase B será igual a la fracción (expresada con decimales) cuyo numerador sea 2 y cuyo denominador sea la media de las cotizaciones medias ponderadas de la acción ordinaria Clase A de la Sociedad de las 20 sesiones bursátiles inmediatamente anteriores al día en que se cumplan los 42 meses desde la fecha de emisión computados de fecha a fecha, con un máximo de 1,33 acciones ordinarias de Clase A. La Sociedad podrá decidir pagar la diferencia entre los 2 euros y la media de las indicadas cotizaciones, en efectivo, con el máximo de 0,5 euros por acción sin voto convertible Clase B, y mantener la relación de conversión en 1 a 1.
Para hacer posible el pago del valor nominal resultante de la conversión obligatoria, la reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B no sólo será disponible a los efectos del pago del dividendo mínimo sino también para desembolsar el valor nominal de las acciones ordinarias Clase A cuando el ratio de conversión sea superior a una acción ordinaria de Clase A por cada acción sin voto convertible de Clase B. Los titulares de las acciones sin voto convertibles de Clase B, cuando tengan derecho a solicitar la conversión de dichas acciones, podrán solicitarla en cualquier momento. Durante los 5 primeros días hábiles de cada mes, los administradores emitirán las acciones ordinarias Clase A que correspondan a los titulares de las acciones sin voto convertibles de Clase B que hayan solicitado la conversión en el mes inmediatamente anterior, e inscribirán tan pronto como sea posible antes del final del mes en el Registro Mercantil la conversión correspondiente. Asimismo, PRISA realizará sus mejores esfuerzos para que las nuevas acciones ordinarias Clase A se admitan a cotización en las Bolsas Españolas (Mercado Continuo) y en el Mercado de Valores Seleccionado (Nasdaq o NYSE), antes de que finalice dicho mes. Se facultará expresamente al Consejo de Administración, con posibilidad de delegación en su Comisión Ejecutiva o en cualquier consejero, para que pueda realizar todos los actos necesarios para ejecutar la conversión.
El acuerdo de la junta general de accionistas de PRISA de emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B detallará las condiciones y las fechas de conversión previstas, en el marco de lo dispuesto más arriba.
La Sociedad no podrá realizar reorganizaciones, recapitalizaciones, reclasificaciones, desdoblamientos, agrupaciones o cambios similares en el capital en relación con las acciones ordinarias Clase A, salvo que se ajuste en la medida correspondiente el ratio de conversión (tal y como se ha descrito más arriba).

I-3


 

Una vez anunciada la decisión de convertir o llegado el día en que se cumplan los 42 meses desde la fecha de emisión computados de fecha a fecha, la ejecución de la conversión deberá realizarse tan pronto como sea posible.
c)   Liquidación
A efectos de la liquidación, se entenderá que el valor desembolsado por las acciones Clase B es de 2 euros.
Con carácter general, las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrán derecho a la misma cuota de liquidación que las restantes acciones.
No obstante lo anterior, los titulares de acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B tendrán derecho, en los términos establecidos en el artículo 101 de la Ley de Sociedades de Capital a obtener el reembolso del valor desembolsado, antes de que se distribuya cantidad alguna a las restantes acciones en caso de liquidación de la Sociedad, para el supuesto de que la cuota de liquidación de todas las acciones sea inferior a 2,00 euros.
Para el supuesto de que el balance previo a la liquidación presentara beneficios distribuibles o reserva por prima de emisión creada con ocasión de la emisión de las acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, se distribuirá a los titulares de acciones sin voto convertibles Clase B, el dividendo mínimo del ejercicio anterior y del ejercicio en curso, con carácter previo a distribuir cantidad alguna a los restantes accionistas.
d)   Admisión a cotización
Se solicitará a admisión a cotización de las acciones sin voto convertibles en las Bolsas Españolas (Mercado Continuo) y en Mercado de Valores Seleccionado (Nasdaq o NYSE)
Terms of PRISA Class B Convertible Non-Voting Shares—English Translation
The Class B non-voting convertible shares shall be subject to the system contemplated expressly in articles 98 et seq. of the Spanish Companies Law and the Prisa By-Laws as amended by the Business Combination Agreement, amended and restated, with the following characteristics, the regime of which will be specified in the shareholders resolution issuing the Class B non-voting convertible shares:
     a) Rights to Dividends:
Holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares shall have the right to receive the minimum annual dividend in cash of 0.175 euros yearly since the date of issuance, as long as distributable profits exist, according to the terms and limitations contemplated in Article 273 of the Spanish Companies Law or as long as premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares exists, according to the terms set forth herein, and so long as there is no legal restriction against such payment.

I-4


 

In order to facilitate the payment of the minimum dividend, the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares will be considered as a non-distributable reserve as long as Class B non-voting convertible shares are not converted into Class A ordinary shares and the minimum dividend as provided herein is not paid in full. Although it is not distributable, the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares can be used for the payment of the minimum dividend and for the payment of the par value of that number of ordinary shares which exceed the number of Class B non-voting convertible shares converted, in the case the conversion rate is different than 1:1 according to the terms of the following paragraph b).
If the Company has enough distributable profits in a certain fiscal year, the Company is obliged to approve the distribution of the minimum annual dividend.
If the Company had distributable profits during a certain fiscal year, but not enough distributable profits in the amount necessary to pay the minimum dividend in full to the Class B non-voting convertible shares, then the full amount of the distributable profits shall be paid to the holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares, pro-rata amongst the same.
The minimum dividends not paid, due to the lack of distributable profits, will be paid, on the remaining part, against the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non voting convertible shares.
If the Company does not have premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares in the amount necessary to pay the minimum dividend in full to the Class B non-voting convertible shares, then the full amount of the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares will be paid to the holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares, pro-rata amongst the same.
The minimum dividends that have been unpaid, total or partially, due to the lack of enough distributable profits or the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares will be cumulative.
The minimum dividend that corresponds to the Class B non-voting convertible shares shall be paid as soon as possible, once the ordinary general shareholders’ meeting of each year has been held, and, in any event, prior to September 30 of each year. The minimum dividend will be paid in connection with the fiscal year to which the annual accounts approved by the ordinary shareholders’ meeting that approves said dividend refer to, except for the first year in which the minimum annual dividend will be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which will be the days elapsed from the date of issuance to December 31, 2010 and the denominator of which will be 365.
In the event of conversion, the holder of the Class B non-voting convertible shares shall be entitled to receive in cash, on or before the date the ordinary shares resulting from conversion are delivered to him, any minimum dividend not paid before such date (including the proportionate minimum dividend corresponding to the numbers of days elapsed from the beginning of the year on which the conversion takes place), as long as there exist distributable profits or premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares.

I-5


 

Once the minimum dividend has been approved, holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares shall have the right to receive the same dividend that corresponds, as the case may be, to the Class A ordinary shares.
For the purpose of enabling the distribution of the minimum annual dividend in favor of the holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares, PRISA will exercise its voting rights in respect of all of its subsidiaries, to the extent legally and contractually possible, to cause the delivery of available distributable profits of such subsidiaries to their respective shareholders and, as the case may be, then to PRISA.
The minimum dividend corresponding to the Class B non-voting convertible shares will always be paid in cash.
e)   Conversion
Class B non-voting convertible shares shall be convertible in the following conditions:
  (i)   At the option of each holder of Class B non-voting convertible shares, a Class B non-voting convertible share may be converted into a Class A ordinary share at any time.
 
  (ii)   42 months after the date of issuance, Class B non-voting convertible shares will be automatically converted into Class A ordinary shares, on a one-to-one basis.
Nevertheless, so long as the average volume weighted trading price of the Class A ordinary shares of the 20 consecutive trading days on the Spanish Market (Mercado Continuo) immediately prior to the day which is 42 months (computed from date to date) after the date of issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares shall have been lower than 2.00, the conversion rate will be modified as follows: the number of Class A ordinary shares to be issued as for the conversion of each Class B non-voting convertible share be equal to a fraction (expressed as a decimal), the numerator of which shall be 2.00 and the denominator of which shall be the average volume weighted trading price of the Class A ordinary shares of the twenty consecutive trading days on the Spanish Market (Mercado Continuo) immediately prior to the day which is 42 months (computed from date to date) after the date of issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares, with a maximum of 1.33 Class A ordinary shares. The Company may elect to pay in cash the difference between 2.00 and the mentioned average volume weighted trading price, with the maximum amount of 0.5 per Class B non-voting convertible share, and thereby retain the one for one conversion ratio.
In order to make the payment of the nominal value resulting from the automatic conversion , the premium reserve created as a result of the issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares will be available to be used not only for the payment of the minimum dividend, but also to pay in the nominal value of the Class A ordinary shares when the conversion ratio is higher than one Class A ordinary share for one Class B non-voting convertible share.
Holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares, when entitled to request the conversion of said shares, may request it at any time. Within the first five business days of each month, the directors shall issue those Class A ordinary shares which correspond to the holders of Class B non-voting convertible shares that have requested the conversion during the immediately preceding month and will register the corresponding conversion as soon as practically possible before the end of the month with the Mercantile Register. In addition PRISA will use its best efforts to have the new Class A ordinary shares admitted to listing in the Spanish Stock Exchanges (Mercado Continuo) and the Selected Stock Exchange, before the end of such month. The Board of Directors will be expressly authorized, with the possibility to further delegate upon its Executive Committee or any other director, to carry out all the actions necessary to implement the conversion.

I-6


 

The Prisa shareholders meeting resolution to issue Class B non-voting convertible shares will detail the conditions and the conversion dates foreseen, within the framework described above. The Company will not effect any reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse stock split or other similar changes in capitalization relating to the Class A ordinary shares unless an appropriate adjustment to the conversion rate of the Class B non-voting convertible shares (as described above) is provided for.
Once the decision to convert has been announced or as of the day that is 42 months (computed from date to date) after the date of issuance of the Class B non-voting convertible shares, the implementation of the conversion shall take place as promptly as possible.
f)   Liquidation
