ITEM 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Indemnification of directors and officers
The registrant is incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or DGCL, provides that a Delaware corporation may
indemnify any person who was or is, or is threatened to be made, a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such
corporation), by reason of the fact that such person is or was an officer, director, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation or
enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided such person
acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the corporation’s best interests and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was
unlawful, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if such person is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where a present or former officer or director is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any
action referred to above, the corporation must indemnify him or her against the expenses (including attorneys’ fees) which such officer or director has actually and reasonably incurred.
Section 145 further provides that the indemnification provisions of Section 145 shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights
to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office. The registrant’s restated certificate of incorporation as currently in effect, or Certificate of Incorporation, contains a provision eliminating the liability of a director to the registrant and its stockholders for
monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director. However, neither the DGCL nor the registrant’s Certificate of Incorporation currently allows such provision to limit the liability of a director for: (i) any breach of the
director’s duty of loyalty to the registrant or its stockholders; (ii) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (iii) payment of dividends, stock purchases or
redemptions that violate the DGCL; or (iv) any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Such limitation of liability also does not affect the availability of equitable remedies such as injunctive relief or
rescission.
II-1
Section 145 further authorizes a corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on
behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust
or other enterprise, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would otherwise have the power to indemnify
such person under Section 145.
The registrant’s amended and restated bylaws as currently in effect, or the Bylaws,
provide that, the registrant shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, as now or hereafter in effect, and the Certificate of Incorporation, and such right to indemnification shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer of the registrant and shall inure to the benefit of his or her heirs, executors and personal and legal representatives; provided, however, that, except for proceedings to enforce
rights to indemnification, the registrant shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer (or his or her heirs, executors or personal or legal representatives) in connection with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person
unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the board of directors. The right to indemnification conferred by the Bylaws shall include the right to be paid by the registrant the expenses incurred in defending or
otherwise participating in any proceeding in advance of its final disposition upon receipt by the registrant of an undertaking by or on behalf of the director or officer receiving advancement to repay the amount advanced if it shall ultimately be
determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the registrant under the Bylaws.
The Bylaws also provide
that, to the extent authorized from time to time by the Board of Directors, the registrant may provide rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses to employees and agents of the registrant similar to those conferred in the Bylaws to
directors and officers of the registrant and that the rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses conferred in Bylaws shall not be exclusive of any other right which any person may have or hereafter acquire under the Certificate of
Incorporation, the Bylaws, any statute, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise.
Under the
Bylaws, any repeal or modification of the provisions of the Bylaws relating to indemnification by the stockholders of the registrant shall not adversely affect any rights to indemnification and to the advancement of expenses of a director, officer,
employee or agent of the registrant existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to any acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.
ITEM 15. Sales of Unregistered Securities.
(a) On each of
March 3, 2008 and March 24, 2008, we sold 7,142,857 shares (14,285,714 shares in the aggregate) of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”) to Gores Radio Holdings, LLC (“Gores”), an entity managed
by The Gores Group, LLC, at a price of $1.75 per share for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000,000. Gores is an “accredited investor” as defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act, of 1933 as amended and the foregoing shares of
our Common Stock sold to Gores were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(b) On June 19, 2008, we sold to Gores 75,000 shares of our 7.50% Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), and warrants to purchase (1) up to
3,330,000 shares of our Common Stock at a strike price of $5.00 per share, (2) up to 3,330,000 shares of our Common Stock at a strike price of $6.00 per share, and (3) up to 3,340,000 shares of our Common Stock at a strike price of $7.00
per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $75,000,000, in each case pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. Gores is an “accredited investor” as defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act, of 1933 as amended and the foregoing shares
of our Common Stock sold to Gores were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
II-2
(c) On April 23, 2009, we consummated the Restructuring. In connection therewith:
(i) Gores purchased for an aggregate of $1.4 million, $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 5.26%
Series B Senior Guaranteed Notes due November 30, 2012 (the “Series B Notes”), from a holder of the Series B Notes and purchased for an aggregate of $4.9 million approximately $17.6 million aggregate principal amount of loans from
certain lenders under our Credit Agreement, dated as of March 3, 2004, as amended (the “Old Credit Agreement”).
(ii) Gores (i) exchanged all of our 7.50% Series A Preferred Stock that it previously purchased in June 2008 for 75,000 shares of 7.50% Series A-1 Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A-1
Preferred Stock”) and (ii) purchased 25,000 shares of our 8.0% Series B Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock” and, together with the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the “Preferred Stock”) for a per
share purchase price of $1,000 and an aggregate purchase price of $25.0 million.
(iii) Holders of our then
outstanding 4.64% Series A Senior Guaranteed Notes due November 30, 2009 and Series B Notes and lenders under the Old Credit Agreement, in consideration for releasing all of their respective claims under the such notes and the Old Credit
Agreement, collectively received (1) $117.5 million of new senior secured notes (the “Senior Notes”), maturing July 15, 2012; (2) 34,962 shares of Series B Preferred Stock; and (3) a one-time cash payment of $25.0
million. As a result of such transactions, Gores, as a holder of such indebtedness, received approximately $10.8 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes, 3,201 additional shares of Series B Preferred Stock and approximately $2.3 million
in cash.
(iv) Each of Gores and the other holders of our Senior Notes is an “accredited investor” as
defined under Regulation D of the Securities Act, of 1933 as amended and the foregoing shares of our Preferred Stock and Senior Notes were issued pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended.
The purchasers of the securities described in paragraphs (a) — (c) received written disclosures
that the securities had not been registered under the Securities Act and that any resale must be made pursuant to a registration or an available exemption from registration. The sales of these securities were made without general solicitation or
advertising.
ITEM 16. Exhibits.
The exhibits to this Registration Statement are listed on the Exhibit Index, which is incorporated by reference in this Item 16.
ITEM 17. Undertakings.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities
arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
II-3
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that:
(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as
part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b) (1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
II-4

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the registrant has duly caused this Registration Statement to be signed on its
behalf by the undersigned, thereunto duly authorized, in the City of New York, State of New York, on November 19, 2009.
