Adjustment of Awards. The number of hypothetical shares of Common Stock subject to the Award shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with the Plan.

DIVIDENDS. You shall receive no benefit or adjustment to your Award with respect to any cash dividend, stock dividend or other distribution that does not result from a Capitalization Adjustment.

Adjustment of Shares. If: # the Company shall at any time be involved in a merger or other transaction in which the Shares are changed or exchanged; # the Company shall subdivide or combine the Shares or the Company shall declare a dividend payable in Shares, other securities (other than stock purchase rights issued pursuant to a shareholder rights agreement) or other property; # the Company shall effect a cash dividend the amount of which, on a per Share basis, exceeds ten percent (10%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share at the time the dividend is declared, or the Company shall effect any other dividend or other distribution on the Shares in the form of cash, or a repurchase of Shares, that the Board determines by resolution is special or extraordinary in nature or that is in connection with a transaction that the Company characterizes publicly as a recapitalization or reorganization involving the Shares; or # any other event shall occur, which, in the case of this clause (iv), in the judgment of the Administrator necessitates an adjustment to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, then the Administrator shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this Plan, adjust as applicable: # the number and type of Shares subject to this Plan (including the number and type of Shares described in Sections 6(a), (b) and (d)) and which may after the event be made the subject of Awards; # the number and type of Shares subject to outstanding Awards; # the grant, purchase, or exercise price with respect to any Award; and # to the extent such discretion does not cause an Award that is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Code Section 162(m) to lose its status as such, the Performance Goals of an Award. In any such case, the Administrator may also (or in lieu of the foregoing) make provision for a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Award in exchange for the cancellation of all or a portion of the Award (without the consent of the holder of an Award) in an amount determined by the Administrator effective at such time as the Administrator specifies (which may be the time such transaction or event is effective). However, in each case, with respect to Awards of incentive stock options, no such adjustment may be authorized to the extent that such authority would cause this Plan to violate Code Section 422(b). Further, the number of Shares subject to any Award payable or denominated in Shares must always be a whole number. In any event, previously granted Options or SARs are subject to only such adjustments as are necessary to maintain the relative proportionate interest the Options and SARs represented immediately prior to any such event and to preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Options or SARs.

Binding Effect & Adjustment. This Agreement shall be binding and conclusive upon each successor and assign of the Company. Grantee’s obligations hereunder shall not be assignable to any other person or entity. It is the intent of the parties to this Agreement that the benefits of any appreciation of the underlying Common Stock during the term of the Award shall be preserved in any event, including but not limited to a recapitalization, merger, consolidation, reorganization, stock dividend, stock split, reverse stock split, spin-off or similar transaction, or other change in corporate structure affecting the Shares, as more fully described in [Sections 4.6 and 11]1] of the Plan. All obligations imposed upon Grantee and all rights granted to Grantee and to the Company shall be binding upon Grantee's heirs and legal representatives.

Notice of Adjustment. Upon any adjustment of the Exercise Price and any increase or decrease in the number of Shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant, then, and in each such case, the Corporation shall within 30 days thereafter give written notice thereof, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to each Holder as shown on the books of the Corporation. Any such notice shall state the adjusted Exercise Price and adjusted number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of the Warrant, and shall set forth in reasonable detail the methods of calculation of such adjustments and the facts upon which such calculations were based.

General Adjustment Rules. If any adjustment or substitution provided for in this [Section 4] shall result in the creation of a fractional Share under any Award, the Company shall, in lieu of selling or otherwise issuing such fractional Share, pay to the Participant a cash sum in an amount equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the fractional Share would otherwise have been issued. In the case of any such substitution or adjustment affecting an Award with an Exercise Price, the total Exercise Price for the shares of Stock then subject to the Award shall remain unchanged but the Exercise Price per share under each such Award shall be equitably adjusted by the Administrator to reflect the greater or lesser number of shares of Stock or other securities into which the Stock subject to the Award may have been changed.

Adjustment of Awards. The Committee shall have the sole discretion to adjust Awards, either on a formula or discretionary basis, or on any combination thereof. In the event that applicable laws or regulations change to permit Committee discretion to alter the governing Performance Measures without obtaining shareholder approval of such changes, the Committee shall have sole discretion to make such changes without obtaining shareholder approval.

Within 90 days after the Closing Date, Sinclair will prepare and deliver to Emmis a written statement (the “Preliminary Closing Statement”) setting forth Sinclair’s good-faith determination of # the amount of Net Working Capital, # the Final Consideration, and # the Excess Amount or the Shortfall Amount, as applicable, which statement will include materials that show, in reasonable detail, Sinclair’s support and computations for the amounts included in the Preliminary Closing Statement. The Preliminary Closing Statement will be binding upon the Parties and such Preliminary Closing Statement will be the “Final Closing Statement,” unless Emmis gives written notice of its disagreement to Sinclair in accordance with [Section 8.6(b)].

Adjustment of Restraints. In the event that any one (1) or more of the provisions of this Agreement shall be held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remainder hereof shall not, in any way, be affected or impaired thereby, and any such provision or provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by law. Moreover, if any one (1) or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement is held to be excessively broad as to duration, scope, activity or subject (including, but not limited to, the restrictive covenants contained in this Agreement), such provisions will be construed by excising, limiting, and/or reducing them so that this Agreement is enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with applicable law.

Adjustment of Shares. In the event of any change with respect to the outstanding shares of Common Stock of the Company, the Restricted Stock Units may be adjusted in accordance with [Section 9] of the Plan.
