“Fair Market Value”:

(a)With respect to any security, Fair Market Value means the average of the closing prices of such security’s sales on all principal securities exchanges on which such security may at the time be listed, or, if there have been no sales on any such exchange on any day, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on all such exchanges at the end of such day, or, if on any day such security is not so listed, the average of the representative bid and asked prices quoted in the Nasdaq Stock Market System as of 4:00 P.M., New York time, or, if on any day such security is not quoted in the Nasdaq Stock Market System, the average of the highest bid and lowest asked prices on such day in the domestic over-the-counter market as reported by the National Quotation Bureau, Incorporated, or any similar successor organization, in each such case averaged over a period of 20 days consisting of the 20 consecutive Business Days prior to such day as of which Fair Market Value is being determined. If at any time such security is not listed on any securities exchange or quoted in the Nasdaq Stock Market System or the over-the-counter market, the Fair Market Value shall be the fair value thereof reasonably determined jointly in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holders of more than 85% of the Warrants. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be determined by the joint decision of two independent investment banking firms of national reputation, one nominated by the Company and the other by the Holders of more than 85% of the Warrants and neither of which is an Affiliate of the Company or any Holders of the Warrants.

In such an event, the Company and the Holders shall likewise pay equally the fees and expenses of all three investment banking firms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that a security is sold in an underwritten Public Sale after a Qualified Public Offering has occurred, the Fair Market Value with respect to any exercise of Warrants in conjunction therewith shall be the Public Sale price per share and, in the event that a security is sold as part of a sale of 90% or more of a company’s shares for cash to a third party in a sale other than an underwritten Public Sale, the Fair Market Value with respect to any exercise of Warrants in conjunction therewith shall be the sale price per share. Any determination of the Fair Market Value of a Component or Unit shall be made on a pro forma basis as though all Capital Stock Equivalents, including the Warrants and the Three-Year Warrants, had not been issued.

(b)With respect to any entity, including the Company and the other Purchaser Entities, assets, evidences of indebtedness or other rights, the Fair Market Value shall be the fair value thereof reasonably determined jointly in good faith by the Board of Directors of the Company and the Holders of more than 85% of the Warrants. If such parties are unable to reach agreement within a reasonable period of time, such fair value shall be determined by independent investment banking firms as set forth in the preceding paragraph (a).

(c)Any determination of Fair Market Value to be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company or the Holders or any investment bank pursuant to the foregoing provisions shall be based on a multiple of EBITDA based on comparable companies.

(c)This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company and each of the other Purchaser Entities and constitutes a legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of such Purchaser Entity, except to the extent limited by (i) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general application related to the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity. When the Warrants and Warrant Certificates have been issued as contemplated hereby, (i) the Warrants and the Warrant Certificates shall constitute legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Company and each of the Purchaser Entities, except to the extent limited by (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and similar laws of general application

related to the enforcement of creditor’s rights generally and (B) general principles of equity, and (ii) the Components, when issued upon exercise of the Warrants in accordance with the terms thereof, shall be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

(d)Neither the Company nor any Affiliate of the Company is (i) an “investment company”, or a company “controlled” by an “investment company”, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, or (ii) a “holding company”, a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, or an “affiliate” of a “holding company” or of a “subsidiary company” of a “holding company”, as such terms are defined in the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, as amended.

(b)Warrant Certificates shall be signed on behalf of each Purchaser Entity by its Chief Executive Officer and by its Secretary or an Assistant Secretary under its corporate or similar seal. Each such signature upon the Warrant Certificates may be in the form of a facsimile signature of the present or any future Chief Executive Officer, Secretary or Assistant Secretary and may be imprinted or otherwise reproduced on the Warrant Certificates and for that purpose a Purchaser Entity may adopt and use the facsimile signature of any person who shall have been Chief Executive Officer, Secretary or Assistant Secretary, notwithstanding the fact that at the time the Warrant Certificates shall be delivered or disposed of he or she shall have ceased to hold such office.

Section 4.Registration. The Company shall number and register the Warrant Certificates in a register as they are issued. On the Closing Date, the Company shall register the outstanding Warrant Certificates in the name of the Initial Holders. The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) of the Warrant Certificates as the absolute owner(s) thereof (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by anyone), for all purposes, and shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Section 5.Warrants; Duration and Exercise of Warrants; Payment of Taxes. (a)The Warrants shall be exercisable at any time following the closing of a Major Music Transaction and prior to the 90th day following such closing; provided, however, that upon the

(b)Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the Holder of each Warrant shall have the right to receive from the Purchaser Entities the Component Number of fully paid and nonassessable Components which such Holder may at the time be entitled to receive on exercise of such Warrant and payment of the Exercise Price. In the alternative, a Holder that is exercising one or more Warrants may exercise its right to receive Components on a net basis, such that, without the exchange of any funds, such Holder receives that number of Components otherwise issuable (or payable) upon exercise of such Warrants less that number of Components having an aggregate Fair Market Value at the time of exercise equal to the aggregate Exercise Price that would otherwise have been paid by such Holder upon exercise of such Warrants, in which case the Components issued upon such exercise shall be cut back pro rata.

(c)A Warrant may be exercised by the Holder of such Warrant upon surrender to the Company at its office designated for such purpose (the address of which is set forth in Section 13) of the certificate evidencing the Warrant to be exercised with the form of election to purchase on the reverse thereof duly filled in and signed, and, unless the Holder thereof has elected to use the procedures provided in the last sentence of Section 5(b), upon payment to the Company of the Exercise Price for one Unit. If the Holder of a Warrant is not a party to the Stockholders Agreement, exercise of such Warrant shall be conditioned on execution and delivery by such Holder of the Stockholders Agreement. Payment of the Exercise Price shall be made, at the election of the Holder (i) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the Company or (ii) in the manner provided in the last sentence of Section 5(b).

(d)Subject to the provisions of Section 6, upon such surrender of Warrants and, if necessary, payment of the Exercise Price, the Purchaser Entities shall issue and cause to be delivered with all reasonable dispatch to or upon the written order of the Holder of such Warrants and in such Holder’s name, a certificate or certificates for the Component Number of full Components issuable upon the exercise of such Warrants together with cash, if any, as provided in Section 11. Such certificate or certificates shall be deemed to have been issued and such Holder shall be deemed to have become a holder of record of such Components as of the date of the surrender of such Warrants and payment of the Exercise Price or election pursuant to the last sentence of Section 5(b).

(e)All Warrant Certificates surrendered upon exercise of Warrants shall be cancelled and disposed of by the Company. The Company shall keep copies of this Agreement and any notices given or received hereunder available for inspection by the Holders during normal business hours at its principal office.

(f)The Company shall pay all documentary stamp taxes attributable to the initial issuance of Components upon the exercise of Warrants; provided, however, that the Company shall not be required to pay any tax or taxes which may be payable in respect of any transfer involved in the issue of any Warrant Certificates or any certificates for Components in a name other than that of the registered holder of a Warrant Certificate surrendered upon the exercise of

a Warrant, and the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver such Warrant Certificates unless or until the Person or Persons requesting the issuance thereof shall have paid to the Company the amount of such tax or shall have established to the satisfaction of the Company that such tax has been paid.

(g)The Exercise Price for the exercise of any Warrant shall be allocated to the Components in accordance with the Component Prices and allocated to the relevant Purchaser Entities accordingly.

(h)The results of calculations with respect to Component Numbers shall be rounded to the nearest five decimal places. The results of calculations with respect to Component Prices shall be rounded to the nearest two decimal places.

Section 6.Piggyback Rights/Tag Along Rights/Drag Along Obligations. (a)The Holders have certain piggyback rights, tag-along rights and drag-along obligations under the Stockholders Agreement.

(b)Transfers of Warrants. Warrants may be transferred or assigned only to TWI or wholly owned subsidiaries of TWI. If any Holder ceases to be so wholly owned, it shall promptly transfer its Warrants to TWI or another eligible Holder. If the proposed transferee of Warrants is not a party to the Stockholders Agreement, transfer of such Warrants shall be conditioned upon execution and delivery by such transferee of the Stockholders Agreement.

Section 7.Reservation of Components. (a)Each Purchaser Entity shall at all times reserve and keep available, free from preemptive rights, out of the aggregate of its authorized but unissued Capital Stock or its authorized and issued Capital Stock held in its treasury, for the purpose of enabling it to satisfy any obligation to issue Components upon exercise of Warrants, the maximum number of shares of Components which may then be deliverable by such Purchaser Entity upon the exercise of all outstanding Warrants.

(b)The Company or, if appointed, the transfer agent for the Purchaser Entities’ Capital Stock (the “Transfer Agent”) and every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Purchaser Entities’ Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of any of the rights of purchase aforesaid shall be irrevocably authorized and directed at all times to reserve such number of authorized shares as shall be required for such purpose. The Company shall keep a copy of this Agreement on file with the Transfer Agent and with every subsequent transfer agent for any shares of the Purchaser Entities’ Capital Stock issuable upon the exercise of the rights of purchase represented by the Warrants. The Company shall furnish such Transfer Agent a copy of all notices of adjustments and certificates related thereto, transmitted to each Holder pursuant to Section 13.

Section 8.Obtaining Governmental Approvals and Stock Exchange Listings. The Company shall from time to time, at its own expense (i) obtain and keep effective any and all permits, consents and approvals of Governmental Authorities which may be required of any of the Purchaser Entities in order to satisfy its obligations hereunder and (ii) take all action which may be necessary so that the Components, immediately upon their issuance upon the exercise of Warrants, shall be listed on the principal securities exchanges and markets within the United

States of America, if any, on which other shares of the applicable class of Capital Stock are then listed.

Section 9.Certain Adjustments. (a)Accretion. The Component Prices shall accrete as long as and to the extent that the underlying Component is outstanding at the following annually compounded rates, based in the case of a partial year on the number of days elapsed over 365 or 366, as applicable, in each case subject to adjustment pursuant to this Section 9 or Section 10 and excluding the date of exercise:

(i)with respect to a Major Music Transaction which is Announced on or before the first anniversary of the Closing Date, at an annual rate of 8½%, and

(ii)with respect to a Major Music Transaction which is Announced thereafter and before the third anniversary of the Closing Date, from the Closing Date to but excluding the fifteenth month anniversary of the Closing Date at an annual rate of 8½% and thereafter at an annual rate of 15%.

(b)Redemptions, Refinancings or Repurchases of Investor Shares. If at any time or from time to time any Purchaser Entity redeems any Component constituting Investor Shares or otherwise refinances or repurchases any such Component (any such Component being referred to as a “Redeemed Component”) such that it is no longer outstanding in whole or in part and some or all of the Investors or their successors or assigns receive monies (or other assets) in respect thereof, then effective as of the date of such redemption, refinancing or repurchase, the Component Number for the Redeemed Component and the Component Price for the Redeemed Component shall be adjusted in accordance with this Section 9(b).

The Component Number for the Redeemed Component shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (1) the Component Number then in effect for the Redeemed Component and (2) the percentage of the total number of then-outstanding shares of the Redeemed Component constituting Investor Shares that were redeemed, refinanced or repurchased by the Purchaser Entity.

The Component Price for the Redeemed Component shall be reduced, effective as of the date of such redemption, refinancing or repurchase, in accordance with the following formula:

New CP	=	Old CP - ((Old CN - New CN) x RP)

where:

New CP	=	the adjusted Component Price for the Redeemed Component.

Old CP	=	the Component Price for the Redeemed Component immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

New CN	=	the adjusted Component Number per this Section 9(b) for the Redeemed Component.

Old CN	=	the Component Number for the Redeemed Component immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

RP	=	the amount of monies and, subject to the Company’s election described below, the Fair Market Value of any other assets, paid per share of the Redeemed Component in connection with such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

Neither such redemption, refinancing or repurchase nor the adjustment of the Component Number or the Component Price pursuant to this Section 9(b) shall result in any other adjustments pursuant to Section 9 or Section 10.

With respect to assets other than monies that are paid in any such redemption, refinancing or repurchase, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Component Price pursuant to this Section 9(b) in respect of such assets, at the Company’s election, adequate provision reasonably satisfactory to the Holders may be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon exercise of a Warrant, in addition to Capital Stock represented by the Component Number, the kind and amount of such assets that such Holder would have received had such Holder exercised the Warrant immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase and had such Holder included in such redemption, refinancing or repurchase a number of shares of the Redeemed Component equal to the product of (i) the Component Number for the Redeemed Component immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase and (ii) the percentage of the total number of then-outstanding shares of the Redeemed Component constituting Investor Shares that were redeemed, refinanced or repurchased.

(c)Above-Market Redemptions, Refinancings or Repurchases of Non-Investor Shares. If at any time any Purchaser Entity redeems, refinances or repurchases shares of Capital Stock and/or Capital Stock Equivalents held by Investors that are not Investor Shares, such that they are no longer outstanding in whole or in part and some or all of the Investors or their successors or assigns receive monies (or other assets) in respect thereof, for a per share consideration over the Fair Market Value, at the purchase date, the Component Price for each Component shall be reduced, effective as of the date of such redemption, refinancing or repurchase, by a Dilution Credit, calculated for such Component in accordance with this Section 9(c) in accordance with the following formula:

DC	=	(CN x Old FMV) - (CN x New FMV)

where:

DC	=	the Dilution Credit for a given Component upon such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

CN	=	the Component Number for such Component immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

New FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately after such redemption, refinancing or repurchase calculated as though the shares of the Capital Stock and/or Capital Stock Equivalents held by the Investors or their successors or assigns that are not Investor Shares were the only such shares redeemed, refinanced or repurchased in such transaction.

Old FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately prior to such redemption, refinancing or repurchase.

This Section 9(c) does not apply to any of the transactions described in Section 9(b). Neither such redemption, refinancing or repurchase nor the calculation of the Dilution Credit shall result in any other adjustments pursuant to Section 9 or Section 10. The Component Number shall not be adjusted under this Section 9(c).

(d)Distributions with Respect to Components. If at any time or from time to time any Purchaser Entity makes a distribution or dividend with respect to any Component and some or all of the Investors or their successors or assigns receive monies (or other assets) in respect thereof, the Component Price for such Component shall in each case be reduced, effective as of the date of such distribution or dividend, by an amount equal to the product of (i) the amount of monies and, subject to the Company’s election described below, the Fair Market Value of any other assets, included in such distribution or dividend per share of such Component and (ii) the Component Number for such Component. Such distribution or dividend shall not result in any other adjustments pursuant to Section 9 or Section 10. Upon any such distribution or dividend, the Component Number for such Component shall remain unchanged.

With respect to assets other than monies that are included in any such distribution or dividend, in lieu of the foregoing adjustment to the Component Price pursuant to this Section 9(d) in respect of such assets, at the Company’s election, adequate provision reasonably satisfactory to the Holders may be made so that each Holder shall have the right to receive upon exercise of a Warrant, in addition to Capital Stock represented by the Component Number, the kind and amount of such assets that such Holder would have received had such Holder exercised the Warrant immediately prior to the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to receive such distribution or dividend.

(e)Distributions with Respect to Non-Components. If at any time or from time to time any Purchaser Entity makes a distribution or dividend to holders of any class of its Capital Stock that is not a Component, and some or all of the Investors or their successors or assigns receive monies (or other assets) in respect thereof, then the Component Price of each Component shall be reduced, effective as of the date of such distribution or dividend, by a Dilution Credit

calculated for such Component in accordance with this Section 9(e) in accordance with the following formula:

DC	=	(CN x Old FMV) - (CN x New FMV)

where:

DC	=	the Dilution Credit for a given Component upon such distribution or dividend.

CN	=	the Component Number for such Component immediately prior to such distribution or dividend.

New FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately after such distribution or dividend calculated as though the shares of Capital Stock held by the Investors or their successors or assigns that are not Components were the only such shares with respect to which such distribution or dividend was made.

Old FMV		the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately prior to such distribution or dividend.

Such distribution or dividend shall not result in any other adjustment pursuant to Section 9 or Section 10. Upon any such distribution or dividend, the Component Number for each Component shall remain unchanged.

(f)Exceptions. Sections 9(d) and 9(e) do not apply to (i) any distribution of rights under a so-called “shareholder rights plan” by any Purchaser Entity following a Qualified Public Offering, but any exercise of such rights shall be adjusted for under Sections 10(c) and (d), (ii) ordinary dividends on any publicly traded class of Capital Stock, (iii) distributions to the extent made pursuant to the terms of any Capital Stock, other than Class A Common, as in effect on the date of issuance of such share of Capital Stock, (iv) distributions made by Midco solely to the Company or (v) any transaction described in Section 9(a), 9(b) or 9(c).

(g)Alternative Adjustments. In the event that adjustments to the Component Prices under this Section 9 or Section 10 would have the result of causing the issuance of any Component below par value, the amount of such reduction below the par value shall be applied instead against the aggregate Exercise Price or paid to the Holder upon exercise. In the event that adjustments to the Component Prices under this Section 9 or Section 10 would have the result of decreasing the aggregate Exercise Price below $0.00, upon exercise of the Warrants, the Holders shall be paid such negative amount in cash by the Company.

Section 10.Other Adjustments. Prior to the Expiration Date, the Components issuable upon exercise of the Warrants are subject to adjustment and termination as set forth in Sections 9 and 10. Adjustments for any single event shall be made under only one paragraph of Section 9 or 10 and adjustments for multiple events shall be made separately and seriatim. In the

event of any ambiguity, the Board of Directors of the Company shall in good faith determine the appropriate paragraph to be applied or the order of multiple adjustments.

(a)Subdivisions and Combinations. In case any Purchaser Entity shall (i) subdivide, split or reclassify any class of Components into a larger number of shares, including by way of stock dividend, or (ii) combine or reclassify any class of its Components into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Component Number for such Component shall be proportionately increased or decreased, as the case may be. An adjustment made pursuant to this Section 10(a) shall become effective immediately after the effective date in all cases described above.

(b)Reorganization or Reclassification. In case of any capital reorganization or any reclassification of the capital stock of any Purchaser Entity (whether pursuant to a “drag-along” transaction to which Section 4.2 of the Stockholders Agreement applies, a merger, consolidation, binding share exchange or other similar transaction and including, without limitation, a conversion of the Class L Common into Class A Common), or if any Purchaser Entity issues to all holders of any class of Capital Stock as a dividend or distribution additional shares of Capital Stock or other securities of the Purchaser Entity or of any other Person, the Warrants shall thereafter be exercisable for the number of shares of stock or other securities or property receivable upon such capital reorganization or reclassification of capital stock or dividend or distribution, as the case may be, by a holder of the number of Units for which the Warrants were exercisable immediately prior to such capital reorganization or reclassification of capital stock or dividend or distribution; and, in any such case, appropriate adjustment shall be made in the application of the provisions herein set forth with respect to the rights and interests thereafter of each Holder to the end that the provisions set forth herein shall thereafter be applicable, as nearly as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares of stock or other securities or property thereafter deliverable upon the exercise of the Warrants. If pursuant to any such capital reorganization or reclassification or dividend or distribution the Holders would receive or be entitled to receive stock or other securities of an entity other than the Purchaser Entity in which they had previously held such interest, the Purchaser Entity shall not undertake such capital reorganization or reclassification or dividend or distribution unless and until such other entity has agreed in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement as if it were the Purchaser Entity.

(c)Below-Market Issuances of Components. If any Purchaser Entity issues shares of Components for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value on the date such Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such shares, the affected Component Number shall be adjusted, effective as of the date of such issuance, in accordance with the following formula:

W’=Wx		A
		O+(P/M)

where:

W’	=		the adjusted Component Number.

W	=	the Component Number immediately prior to such issuance.

O	=	the number of shares of such Capital Stock of such Purchaser Entity outstanding immediately prior to such issuance.

P	=	the aggregate consideration received for the issuance of such additional shares of such Capital Stock.

M	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Capital Stock of such Purchaser Entity on the date such Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such shares in such issuance.

A	=	the number of shares of such Capital Stock of such Purchaser Entity outstanding immediately after such issuance.

(d)Below-Market Issuances of Non-Components. If any Purchaser Entity issues shares of Capital Stock, that is not a Component, for a consideration per share less than the Fair Market Value on the date such Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such shares, the Component Price for each Component shall be reduced, effective as of the date of such issuance, by a Dilution Credit calculated for such Component in accordance with this Section 10(d) in accordance with the following formula:

DC	=	(CN x Old FMV) - (CN x New FMV)

where:

DC	=	the Dilution Credit for a given Component upon such distribution or dividend.

CN	=	the Component Number for such Component immediately prior to such issuance.

New FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately after such issuance.

Old FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately prior to such issuance.

(e)Convertible Securities Convertible into Components. If any Purchaser Entity issues any Capital Stock Equivalents for a consideration per share of a Component initially deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Capital Stock Equivalents less than the Fair Market Value per share of such Component on the date the Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such securities, the affected Component Number shall be adjusted, effective as of the date of such issuance, in accordance with the following formula:

W’ = W x		O + D
		O + (P/M)

where:

W’	=	the adjusted Component Number.

W	=	the Component Number immediately prior to such issuance.

O	=	the number of shares of such Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to such issuance of such Capital Stock Equivalents.

P	=	the sum of the aggregate consideration received for such issuance and the aggregate minimum consideration receivable by the Purchaser Entity for issuance of Capital Stock upon conversion or in exchange for, or upon exercise of, such Capital Stock Equivalents.

M	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Capital Stock on the date such Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such securities in such issuance.

D	=	the maximum number of shares of such Capital Stock deliverable upon conversion or in exchange for or upon exercise of such Capital Stock Equivalents at the initial conversion, exchange or exercise rate.

If the aggregate minimum consideration receivable by the Purchaser Entity for issuance of a Component upon conversion or in exchange for, or upon exercise of, such Capital Stock Equivalents shall be increased by virtue of provisions therein contained or upon the arrival of specified date or the happening of a specified event, then the affected Component Number shall promptly be readjusted to the Component Number which would then be in effect had the adjustment upon the issuance of such securities been made on the basis of such increased minimum consideration.

If and to the extent the conversion, exchange or exercise right under such Capital Stock Equivalents have expired without the exercise thereof, then the affected Component Number shall promptly be readjusted to the Component Number which would then be in effect had the adjustment upon the issuance of such Capital Stock Equivalents not been made.

(f)Convertible Securities Issuable for Non-Components. If any Purchaser Entity issues any Capital Stock Equivalents for a consideration per share of Capital Stock, that is not a Component, initially deliverable upon conversion, exchange or exercise of such Capital Stock Equivalents less than the Fair Market Value per share of such Capital Stock on the date the Purchaser Entity fixes the offering price of such securities, the Component Price for each

Component shall be reduced, effective as of the date of such issuance, by a Dilution Credit calculated for such Component in accordance with this Section 10(f) in accordance with the following formula:

DC	=	(CN x Old FMV) - (CN x New FMV)

where:

DC	=	the Dilution Credit for a given Component upon such distribution or dividend.

CN	=	the Component Number for such Component immediately prior to such issuance.

New FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately after such issuance.

Old FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately prior to such issuance.

If the aggregate minimum consideration receivable by the Purchaser Entity for issuance of Capital Stock upon conversion or in exchange for, or upon exercise of, such Capital Stock Equivalents shall be increased by virtue of provisions therein contained or upon the arrival of specified date or the happening of a specified event, then the affected Dilution Credit shall promptly be readjusted to the amount which would then be in effect had the adjustment upon the issuance of such securities been made on the basis of such increased minimum consideration.

If and to the extent the conversion, exchange or exercise right under such Capital Stock Equivalents has expired without the exercise thereof, then the affected Dilution Credit shall promptly be readjusted to the amount which would then be in effect had the adjustment upon the issuance of such Capital Stock Equivalents not been made.

(g)Distributions in Connection with Affiliate Transactions: If at any time or from time to time any Purchaser Entity enters into any transaction with any other Investor or any Affiliate of such Investor (other than the Company, Midco or any wholly owned subsidiary of the Company or Midco) on terms that are not fair to such Purchaser Entity, then a Dilution Credit for each Component shall be calculated, effective as of the date such transaction is entered into, in accordance with the following formula:

DC	=	(CN x Old FMV) - (CN x New FMV)

where:

DC	=	the Dilution Credit for a given Component upon entering into such Affiliate transaction.

CN	=	the Component Number for such Component immediately

		prior to entering into such Affiliate transaction.

New FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately after entering into such Affiliate transaction.

Old FMV	=	the Fair Market Value per share of such Component immediately prior to entering into such Affiliate transaction.

This Section 10(g) does not apply to (i) any transaction that has been approved as fair to such Purchaser Entity by a majority of the disinterested directors of the Company, (ii) any transaction or series of related transactions involving $50 million or less, (iii) any transaction which a third party financial advisor, appraiser, consultant or expert retained by a Purchaser Entity has determined to be fair to such Purchaser Entity, (iv) any payment of customary management or advisory fees consistent with the past practices of the Investors with respect to their portfolio companies, (v) any issuance of shares of Capital Stock or Capital Stock Equivalents, any repurchase, redemption or refinancing of shares of Capital Stock or Capital Stock Equivalents, or the making of any distribution on shares of Capital Stock and (vi) transactions in which Investors and Holders have substantially comparable proportionate interest.

(h)Exceptions. Sections 10(c), (d), (e) and (f) do not apply to (i) the issuance of any Capital Stock or Capital Stock Equivalents issued pursuant to Employee Stock Program Grants, (ii) the issuance by a Purchaser Entity following a Qualified Public Offering of any shares of any publicly traded class of Capital Stock pursuant to an employee stock purchase plan or pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan, (iii) issuances made by a Purchaser Entity solely to other Purchaser Entities, (iv) the issuance of Capital Stock pursuant to any Warrant or Three-Year Warrant, (v) any arm’s-length transaction for a bona fide business purpose with a third party which has been approved by a majority of the disinterested directors of the issuing Purchaser Entity or by the disinterested directors of the Company if the issuing Purchaser Entity has no disinterested directors, (vi) any transaction for a bona fide business purpose with. an Affiliate that is determined to have been fair by a majority of the disinterested directors of the issuing Purchaser Entity or by the disinterested directors of the Company if the issuing Purchaser Entity has no disinterested directors, (vii) any of the transactions described by Section 9, (viii) with respect to Sections 10(c) and 10(d), the issuance of Capital Stock upon the conversion, exercise or exchange of any Capital Stock Equivalents for which an adjustment has been made pursuant to Section 10(e) or 10(f) or for which no adjustment was required pursuant to Section 10(e),10(f), or 10(i) or (ix) the issuance of securities to Persons providing debt financing; provided, however, that this clause (ix) shall apply to securities issued to a Person that is Affiliated with an Affiliate of the Company only if and to the extent such Person (A) did not negotiate the terms of such debt financing, (B) receives no more than 20% of the securities issued to the Persons providing such debt financing and (C) receives no more than its pro rata share of the securities issued to the Persons providing such debt financing.

(i)When De Minimis Adjustment May Be Deferred. No adjustment in a Component Number or Component Price pursuant to Section 9 or 10 shall be required unless the adjustment would require an increase or decrease of at least 1% in the Component Number or Component Price. No creation of a Dilution Credit pursuant to Section 9 or 10 shall be

calculated unless the adjustment would be greater than 1% of the Fair Market Value of each Component immediately after the event requiring such adjustment; provided, however, that any adjustments that are not made shall be carried forward and taken into account in any subsequent adjustment.

(j)Notice of Adjustment. Whenever a Component Number or Component Price is adjusted, the Company shall provide the notices required by Section 13.

(k)Certificate as to Adjustments.

Section 11.Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Components on the exercise of Warrants. If more than one Warrant shall be presented for exercise in full at the same time by the same Holder, the number of full Components which shall be issuable upon the exercise thereof shall be computed on the basis of the aggregate number of Components purchasable on exercise of the Warrants so presented. If any fraction of a Component would, except for the provisions of this Section 11, be issuable on the exercise of any Warrants (or specified portion thereof), in lieu of issuing such fractional Component, the Company may pay an amount in cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such fractional Component on the day immediately preceding the date the Warrant is presented for exercise, multiplied by such fraction.

Section 12.Notices to Holders. (a)Upon any adjustment of a Component Price or of a Component Number pursuant to Section 9 or 10, the Company shall promptly, but in any event within 10 days thereafter, cause to be given to each of the Holders, by registered mail, postage prepaid, a certificate signed by its chief financial officer setting forth the adjusted Component Number and/or Component Price and describing in reasonable detail the facts accounting for such adjustment and the method of calculation used.

Warrant Certificate

WMG Parent Corp.

WMG Holdings Corp.

This Warrant Certificate certifies that Historic TW Inc. is the registered holder of 25 Warrants (the “Warrants”) to purchase one Unit per Warrant, each Unit consisting of 93.85490 shares of Class L Common and 844.69413 shares of Class A Common of WMG Parent Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and 397.50312 shares of Preferred of WMG Holdings Corp., a Delaware corporation. Each Warrant entitles the holder, when entitled to exercise pursuant to the Warrant Agreement, upon exercise to receive from the Purchaser Entities on and after the Closing Date (as defined in the Warrant Agreement) and prior to the Expiration Date (as defined in the Warrant Agreement), one Unit at a purchase price (the “Exercise Price”) set forth in the Warrant Agreement, payable in lawful money of the United States of America upon surrender of this Warrant Certificate and payment of the Exercise Price at the office of the Company designated for such purpose, but only subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Warrant Agreement referred to on the reverse hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Warrants may be exercised without the exchange of funds pursuant to the net exercise provisions of Section 5 of the Warrant Agreement. The Component Number of Components issuable upon exercise of the Warrants and the Component Prices thereof, as all such terms are defined in the Warrant Agreement, are subject to adjustment upon the occurrence of certain events as set forth in Section 9 and 10 of the Warrant Agreement.

The Company may deem and treat the registered holder(s) hereof as the absolute owner(s) of this Warrant Certificate (notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing hereon made by anyone), for the purpose of any exercise hereof, of any distribution to the holder(s) hereof, and for all other purposes, and the Company shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Except as provided in the Warrant Agreement, neither the Warrants nor this Warrant Certificate entitles any holder hereof to any rights of a stockholder of any Purchaser Entity.

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Warrant Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof and such further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as though fully set forth at this place.

This Warrant shall not be valid unless signed by the Purchaser Entities.

[Form of Warrant A Certificate]

[Reverse]

The Warrants evidenced by this Warrant Certificate are part of a duly authorized issue of Warrants entitling the holder on exercise to receive shares of the Purchaser Entities, and are issued or to be issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement dated as of [Closing Date], duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser Entities, which Warrant Agreement is hereby incorporated by reference in and made a part of this instrument. A copy of the Warrant Agreement may be obtained by the holder (the words “holders” or “holder” meaning the registered holders or registered holder of the Warrants evidenced hereby) upon written request to the Company.

Warrants may be exercised upon the occurrence of certain events at any time commencing on the Closing Date and prior to the Expiration Date. The holder may exercise them by surrendering this Warrant Certificate, with the form of election to purchase set forth hereon properly completed and executed, together with payment of the Exercise Price in cash at the office of the Company designated for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Warrants may be exercised without the exchange of funds pursuant to the net exercise provisions of Section 5 of the Warrant Agreement.

The Warrant Agreement provides that upon the occurrence of certain events the Component Number may, subject to certain conditions, be adjusted. If the Component Number is adjusted, the Warrant Agreement provides that the number of shares issuable upon the exercise of each Warrant shall be adjusted. The Company shall not be required to issue fractions of Components upon the exercise of any Warrant. In lieu of issuing such fractions of Components, however, the Company may pay the cash equal to the Fair Market Value of such fraction thereof determined as provided in the Warrant Agreement. The Warrant Agreement also provides that, upon the occurrence of certain events, the Component Price for the Components may be adjusted.

This Warrant Certificate, when surrendered at the office of the Company by the holder, may be exchanged, in the manner and subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, but without payment of any service charge, for another Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants.

Upon due presentation for registration of transfer of this Warrant Certificate at the office of the Company a new Warrant Certificate or Warrant Certificates of like tenor and evidencing in the aggregate a like number of Warrants shall be issued to the transferee(s) in exchange for this Warrant Certificate, subject to the limitations provided in the Warrant Agreement, without charge except for any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Purchaser Entities have caused this Warrant Certificate to be signed by their respective Chief Executive Officers, and Secretaries and have caused their corporate seals to be affixed hereunto or imprinted hereon.
