This Executive Employment Agreement (this "Agreement"), dated as of December 17, 2009 (the "Effective Date"), is made by and between Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and Gregory B. Maffei (the "Executive").

WHEREAS, the Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to employ the Executive as its President and Chief Executive Officer; and

WHEREAS, the Company wishes to assure itself of the services of the Executive for the period hereinafter provided, and the Executive is willing to be employed by the Company for said period, upon the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is mutually acknowledged, the Company and the Executive agree as follows:

(a) "Affiliate" means any Person Controlling, Controlled by or under common Control with the Company; and "Control" (including the correlative terms "Controlling" and "Controlled") means the possession, direct or indirect, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of a Person, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.

(c) "Cause" means: (i) the Executive's willful failure to follow the lawful instructions of the Board (other than due to Disability); (ii) the commission by the Executive of any fraud, misappropriation or misconduct that causes demonstrable material injury to the Company or any Affiliate; (iii) the Executive's conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony; or (iv) Executive's failure to comply in any material respect with this Agreement or any other agreement between the Executive, on the one hand, and the Company or any Affiliate, on the other, if such failure results in demonstrable material injury to the Company or any Affiliate. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Executive's employment may not be terminated for Cause pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iv) above unless (a) the decision is made by a majority of the Board at a Board meeting where the Executive and his counsel had an opportunity to be heard on at least ten days' prior written notice; (b) the Company provides the Executive with written notice of the Board's decision to terminate the Executive's employment for Cause specifying the particular act(s) or failure(s) to act serving as the basis for such decision; and (c) if such act or failure to act is capable of being cured, the Executive fails to cure any such act or failure to act to the reasonable satisfaction of the Board within ten days after such notice.

For purposes of this Agreement, no act or failure to act, on the part of the Executive, will be considered "willful" unless it is done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in bad faith and without reasonable belief that the Executive's action or omission was legal, proper, and in the best interests of the Company. Any act, or failure to act, based upon authority given pursuant to a resolution duly adopted by the Board or based upon the advice of counsel for the Company will be conclusively presumed to be done, or omitted to be done, by the Executive in good faith and in the best interests of the Company.

(d) "Change in Control" means (i) any merger, consolidation or share exchange to which the Company is a party as a result of which Persons who are common stockholders of the Company immediately prior thereto have less than a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the surviving corporation ordinarily (and apart from the rights accruing under special

circumstances) having the right to vote in the election of directors immediately following such merger, consolidation or share exchange, (ii) the adoption of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, (iii) any sale, lease, exchange or other transfer (in one transaction or a series of related transactions) of all, or substantially all, of the assets of (1) the Company or (2) the Company's Subsidiaries, taken as a whole, (iv) at any time during any period of two consecutive years beginning on or after the Effective Date, individuals who at the beginning of such period were members of the Board ("Original Directors") and new directors, if any, whose election or nomination for election to the Board was recommended or approved by a majority of the Original Directors and the new directors whose nomination had previously been so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the then incumbent members of the Board, (v) any transaction (or series of related transactions) in which any person (as such term is defined in Sections 13(d)(3) and 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act), corporation or other entity (other than the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, any employee benefit plan sponsored by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, any Exempt Person (as defined in the Company's 2007 Incentive Plan, as in effect as of the date hereof) or any member of the Malone Group (as defined in Section 4(h)) shall become the "beneficial owner" (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company ordinarily (and apart from the rights accruing under special circumstances) having the right to vote in the election of directors (calculated as provided in Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act in the case of rights to acquire the Company's securities) or (vi) a spin-off, split-off, split-up or other similar event or events (each, a "Spin Transaction"), either in a single transaction or in a series of related or unrelated transactions (provided that such related or unrelated transactions occur during a period of 24 consecutive months), pursuant to which assets of the Company or of one or more of its Subsidiaries having either a fair market value (as determined in the good faith reasonable judgment of the Board) or book value equal to 40% or more of the total fair market value or book value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole) are directly or indirectly transferred or distributed by dividend or otherwise, excluding any Spin Transaction in which (A) the Executive is appointed as the chief executive officer of the separate publicly-traded entity that is the subject of such Spin Transaction, whether or not he elects to accept such appointment, and (B) any equity-based awards previously granted by the Company to the Executive are adjusted in a manner that (1) preserves the intrinsic value of such option or similar right (or, in the case of the grant of a new option or similar right, preserves the intrinsic value of the option or similar right in respect of which such new option or similar right is granted) and (2) complies with, or is exempt from, Section 409A of the Code. For the purpose of calculating whether the 40% threshold described in clause (vi) of the preceding sentence has been reached or exceeded in a series of two or more transactions, the following calculation will apply:


X	=	percentage of book or fair market value, as applicable, required to reach the 40% threshold as of the date of the second or any subsequent transaction; and
P	=	percentage of book or fair market value, as applicable, disposed of in all prior spin-off, split-off, split-up or other similar events to which clause (vi) applies, determined as of the date of each such transaction.

(f) "Common Stock" means each or any (as the context may require) series of the Company's common stock.

(g) "Disabled" or "Disability" means the Executive's inability to substantially perform his duties due to physical or mental impairment for six consecutive months and, within 30 days after a notice of termination is given to the Executive, the Executive has not returned to work.

(c) Duties. In his capacity as President and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive will perform such duties during the Employment Period as are consistent with his title and position as President and Chief Executive Officer of a publicly-traded company, it being acknowledged that the duties performed by the Executive, and the level of management authority and responsibility that the Executive had, as of the Effective Date are consistent with his title and position.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive will not be required to perform any duties or responsibilities which would be likely to result in non-compliance with, or a violation of, any applicable law or regulation.

(d) Time and Effort.

The term "Base Salary" as used in this Agreement will refer to the Base Salary as it may be so increased.

(b) Bonus. Each calendar year during the Employment Period, the Executive will be eligible to receive a target bonus of 200% of the Executive's Base Salary for such year (the "Target Bonus"). The bonus, if any, payable with respect to services performed in any calendar year will be paid prior to March 15^th of the year following the year to which such service relates. The Executive acknowledges that payment of any bonus to the Executive may be made subject to the achievement of one or more Performance Objectives (as defined in the Company's 2007 Incentive Plan, as in effect as of the date hereof) established in good faith by the Board or a committee thereof.

(c) Benefits.

In addition, during the Employment Period, the Executive will be entitled to use of aircraft owned or leased by the Company on the terms and conditions (except as otherwise provided in Section 5(b) and Section 5(c)) set forth in the letter agreement dated February 22, 2008, between the Company and the Executive.

(f) Business Expenses. The Company will promptly pay or reimburse the Executive for reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the Executive's employment in accordance with the Company's standard policies and practices as in effect from time to time.

(g) Code Section 409A Timing of Reimbursements. All reimbursements under this Agreement, including without limitation Section 4(f), will be made as soon as practicable following submission of a reimbursement request, but no later than the end of the year following the year during which the underlying expense was incurred (or as may be later provided in Section 9(g)). Additionally, reimbursements or in-kind benefits made or provided to the Executive during any taxable year will not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year and no such reimbursements or in-kind benefits will be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit.

(h) Equity Grants. On December 17, 2009, the Company granted to the Executive options to acquire: (a) 760,000 shares of Series A Liberty Starz common stock, (b) 8,743,000 shares of Series A Liberty Interactive common stock and (c) 1,353,000 shares of Series A Liberty Capital common stock (collectively, the "Original Options"). The exercise price of the Original Options applicable to each series of Common Stock equaled the closing sale price of that series, as reported by NASDAQ, on the date of such grant. Except as otherwise provided in this Section or in Section 5, subject to the Executive's continued employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates, 50% of the Original Options of each series will vest on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant of such Original Option and the remaining 50% of the Original Options of each series will vest on the fifth anniversary of the date of grant of such Original Option. Upon the occurrence of a Change in Control, any unvested portion of the Original Options and any other unvested restricted stock, unvested options and other unvested equity or equity derivatives issued or granted to the Executive by (a) the Company or (b) any of the Company's Affiliates in full or partial replacement of, as an adjustment to, or otherwise with respect to, any restricted stock, options or other equity or equity derivatives issued or granted to the Executive by the Company) (collectively with the Original Options, the "Equity Awards") will immediately vest in full and, with respect to any Equity Award that is an option or similar equity derivative ("Option Award") such Option Award will be exercisable throughout the remainder of the full original term of the Option Award (determined without reference to any provision in such Option Award that reduces the exercisability of such Option Award upon the Executive's termination of employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates but otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such Option Award). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Equity Award issued or granted to the Executive after the date of this Agreement by any Affiliate of the Company that is the subject of a Spin Transaction for which the Executive is appointed to serve as Chief Executive Officer after such Spin Transaction will not so vest and be exercisable, and any such Equity Award will be subject to provisions governing the vesting and exercise of such Equity Award upon termination of the Executive's employment by such Affiliate or upon a change in control of such Affiliate that are at least as favorable to the Executive in all material respects as those included in this Agreement, with such changes as may be appropriate to reflect the fact of his employment by such Affiliate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any such Equity Award is subject to (and otherwise

not exempt from) Section 409A of the Code, then such Equity Award will only vest in full if (X) such Change in Control would also be an event described in Section 409A(a)(2)(A)(v) of the Code or (Y) such vesting would not otherwise subject the Executive to any tax, interest or penalty imposed under Section 409A of the Code (or any regulation promulgated thereunder). For the avoidance of doubt, the parties hereto acknowledge that all Equity Awards held by the Executive as of the date hereof have been granted by the Company and not by any of its Affiliates.

(a) Termination Due to Death. In the event of the Executive's death, the Executive's estate or his legal representative, as the case may be, will receive: (i) a lump sum payment equal to any Base Salary earned but unpaid as of the date of Separation; (ii) a lump sum payment of any unpaid expense reimbursement and any amounts required by law to be paid to the Executive; (iii) a lump sum payment of any accrued but unpaid bonus for the prior year; and (iv) a lump sum payment of $7,800,000. All such payments will be made on the date that is the 45^th day after the date of the Executive's Separation, unless that day is not a day on which banking institutions in Denver, Colorado are open for business (a "business day"), in which case such payments will be made on the immediately succeeding business day. Upon such Separation and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any equity plan, grant agreement or any other document relating to an Equity Award, any Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive by the Company or any of its Affiliates will vest in full and any Option Award will be exercisable throughout the remainder of the full original term of the Option Award (determined without reference to any provision in such Option Award that reduces the exercisability of such Option Award upon the Executive's termination of employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates but otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such Option Award).

(b) Termination Due to the Executive's Disability. Upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Executive, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment due to Disability. In such event, the Executive or his legal representative, as the case may be, will receive: (i) a lump sum payment equal to any Base Salary earned but unpaid as of the date of Separation; (ii) a lump sum payment of any unpaid expense reimbursement and other amounts required by law to be paid to the Executive; (iii) a lump sum payment of any accrued but unpaid bonus for the prior year; and (iv) a lump sum payment of $7,800,000. All such payments will be made on the 45^th day after the Separation date or, if that day is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day. In addition, for a period of 18 months following such Separation, the Executive will be entitled to: (x) continued use of the Company's aircraft (consistent with the terms of Executive's use of such aircraft during the Employment Period), (y) information technology support from the Company, as reasonably requested by the Executive and (z) continuation of such other perquisites as the Executive was entitled to receive under Section 4(e) immediately prior to such Separation. Upon such Separation and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained herein, in any equity plan, grant agreement or any other document relating to an Equity Award, any Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive by the Company or any of its Affiliates will vest in full and any Option Award will be exercisable throughout the remainder of the full original term of the Option Award (determined without reference to any provision in such Option Award that reduces the exercisability of such Option Award upon the Executive's termination of employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates but otherwise in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such Option Award).

(c) Termination by the Company Without Cause or by the Executive for Good Reason. Upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Executive, the Company may terminate the Executive's employment without Cause. Upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Company, the Executive may terminate his employment with the Company for Good Reason. In either such event the Executive will receive: (i) a lump sum payment equal to any Base Salary earned but unpaid as of the date of Separation; (ii) a lump sum payment of any unpaid expense reimbursements and any amounts required by law to be paid

to the Executive; and (iii) a lump sum payment of any accrued but unpaid bonus for the prior year. All such payments will be made on the 45^th day after the Separation date or, if that day is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day. In addition, for a period of 18 months following such Separation, the Executive will be entitled to: (x) continued use of the Company's aircraft (consistent with the terms of Executive's use of such aircraft during the Employment Period), (y) information technology support from the Company, as reasonably requested by the Executive and (z) continuation of such other perquisites as the Executive was entitled to receive under Section 4(e) immediately prior to such Separation. Additionally, the Executive will receive a severance payment equal to $7,800,000 (the "Separation Amount", which will be paid as follows: (X) an amount equal to 1.5 times the Executive's then current Base Salary ("Salary Continuation Amount") will be paid in equal monthly installments over the 18 month period commencing on the first payroll period following such termination and (Y) an amount equal to the Separation Amount less the Salary Continuation Amount will be paid to the Executive in a lump sum on the date prescribed by the fourth sentence of this Section. Upon such Separation and notwithstanding any provision to the contrary herein or in any equity plan, grant agreement or other document relating to an Equity Award, all of the Original Options and any other outstanding, unvested Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive by the Company or any of its Affiliates (other than any Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive after the date of this Agreement by any such Affiliate for which the Executive continues to serve as Chief Executive Officer after termination of his employment with the Company) will vest in a percentage equal to a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company or its Affiliates during the vesting period associated with such Equity Award to and including the date of the Executive's Separation plus 548, and the denominator of which is the entire vesting term of such Equity Award (in days). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (i) the members of the Malone Group (as defined below) cease to beneficially own (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, securities of the Company representing at least 20% of the combined voting power of the then outstanding securities of the Company ordinarily (and apart from rights accruing under special circumstances) having the right to vote in the election of directors (such percentage to be calculated as provided in Rule 13d-3(d) under the Exchange Act in the case of rights to acquire the Company's securities) and (ii) within the period beginning 90 days before and ending 210 days after the date the condition prescribed in the foregoing clause (i) is satisfied (the "Malone Termination Period"), there shall occur a Separation by the Company without Cause or a Separation by the Executive for Good Reason, then all of the Original Options and any other outstanding, unvested Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive by the Company or any of its Affiliates (other than any Equity Award granted or issued to the Executive after the date of this Agreement by any such Affiliate for which the Executive continues to serve as Chief Executive Officer after termination of his employment with the Company) will vest in full. The "Malone Group" means John C. Malone, his spouse, his children and other lineal descendents or any trust, foundation or other Person established by a member of the Malone Group for the benefit of one or more members of the Malone Group or for a charitable purpose. Any vested Option Awards, including without limitation any Option Award that vested pursuant to the two immediately preceding sentences or the immediately following sentence, will remain exercisable throughout the remainder of the full original term of the Option Award (determined without reference to any provision in such Option Award that reduces the exercisability of such Option Award upon an individual's termination of employment with the Company or any of its Affiliates). Any Equity Awards granted or issued to the Executive after the date of this Agreement by any Affiliate of the Company which do not become vested and, if applicable, exercisable, pursuant to this Section 5(c) by reason of the Executive's appointment as Chief Executive Officer of such Affiliate shall become vested and, if applicable, exercisable upon his termination of employment for Good Reason or without Cause from such Affiliate in a percentage equal to (i) in the case of such a termination during the Malone Termination Period, 100% or (ii) in the case of such a termination not during the Malone Termination Period, a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company and its Affiliates during the vesting period associated with

such Equity Award to and including the date of such termination plus 548, and the denominator of which is the entire vesting term of such Equity Award (in days) (provided that the "Malone Termination Period" will be defined (for the purposes of this sentence) by substituting for "the Company" the Affiliate of the Company for which the Executive is appointed to serve as Chief Executive Officer and "Cause" and "Good Reason" shall be interpreted and applied in a manner that reflects the Executive's employment by such Affiliate, rather than by the Company).

(d) Termination For Cause. Subject to the provisions of Section 1(c), the Company may terminate the Executive's employment for Cause. In such event, the Executive will receive: (i) a lump sum payment equal to any Base Salary earned but unpaid as of the date of Separation; and (ii) a lump sum payment of any unpaid expense reimbursements and any amounts required by law to be paid to the Executive. All such payments will be made on the 45^th day after the Separation date or, if that day is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day. Additionally, upon such Separation all unvested Equity Awards will be forfeited and all vested, unexercised Equity Awards that are options or similar rights will cease to be exercisable 90 days after the Separation date (but in no event after the stated term of such option or similar right has expired).

(e) Termination Without Good Reason. Upon 30 days' prior written notice to the Company, the Executive will have the right to terminate his employment without Good Reason or any reason at all. In such event, the Executive will receive: (i) a lump sum payment equal to any Base Salary earned but unpaid as of the date of Separation; (ii) a lump sum payment of any accrued but unpaid bonus for the prior year; and (iii) a lump sum payment of any unpaid expense reimbursements and any amounts required by law to be paid to the Executive. All such payments will be made on the 45^th day after the Separation date or, if that day is not a business day, on the next succeeding business day. Additionally, upon such Separation all unvested Equity Awards will be forfeited and all vested, unexercised Equity Awards that are options or similar rights will cease to be exercisable 90 days after the Separation date (but in no event after the stated term of such option or similar right has expired).

(f) Specified Employee. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if (i) the Executive is to receive payments or benefits under Section 5 by reason of his separation from service (as such term is defined in Section 409A of the Code) other than as a result of his death, (ii) the Executive is a "specified employee" within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code for the period in which the payment or benefits would otherwise commence, and (iii) such payment or benefit would otherwise subject the Executive to any tax, interest or penalty imposed under Section 409A of the Code (or any regulation promulgated thereunder) if the payment or benefit were to commence within six months after a termination of the Executive's employment, then such payment or benefit required under Section 5 will instead be paid as provided in this Section 5(f). Each severance payment contemplated under this Section 5 will be treated as a separate payment in a series of separate payments under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2)(iii). Such payments or benefits which would have otherwise been required to be made over such six month period will be paid, without interest, to the Executive in one lump sum payment or otherwise provided to the Executive on the first business day that is six months and one day after the termination of the Executive's employment. Thereafter, the payments and benefits will continue, if applicable, for the relevant period set forth above. For purposes of this Agreement, all references to "Separation," "termination of employment" and other similar language will be deemed to refer to the Executive's "separation from service" as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h), including, without limitation, the default presumptions thereof.

(g) Full Settlement; No Mitigation. The Company's obligation to make the payments provided for in this Agreement and otherwise to perform its obligations hereunder will not be affected by any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other claim, right or action which the Company or any Affiliate may have against the Executive. In no event will the Executive be obligated to seek other employment or take any other action by way of mitigation of the amounts payable to the Executive under any of the provisions of this Agreement.

(h) Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement will prevent or limit the Executive's continuing or future participation in any employee benefit plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company or an Affiliate and for which the Executive may qualify, except as specifically provided herein. Amounts which are vested benefits or which the Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program of the Company or an Affiliate at or subsequent to a Separation will be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program, except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

6. Confidential Information. The Executive will not, during or after the Employment Period, without the prior express written consent of the Company, directly or indirectly use or divulge, disclose or make available or accessible any Confidential Information (as defined below) to any person, firm, partnership, corporation, trust or any other entity or third party (other than when required to do so in good faith to perform the Executive's duties and responsibilities under this Agreement or when (i) required to do so by a lawful order of a court of competent jurisdiction, any governmental authority or agency, or any recognized subpoena power, or (ii) necessary to prosecute the Executive's rights against the Company or its Affiliates' or to defend himself against any allegations). The Executive will also proffer to the Company, no later than the effective date of any termination of the Executive's engagement with the Company for any reason, and without retaining any copies, notes or excerpts thereof, all memoranda, computer disks or other media, computer programs, diaries, notes, records, data, customer or client lists, marketing plans and strategies, and any other documents consisting of or containing Confidential Information that are in the Executive's actual or constructive possession or which are subject to the Executive's control at such time. For purposes of this Agreement, "Confidential Information" will mean all information respecting the business and activities of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company, including, without limitation, the clients, customers, suppliers, employees, consultants, computer or other files, projects, products, computer disks or other media, computer hardware or computer software programs, marketing plans, financial information, methodologies, know-how, processes, practices, approaches, projections, forecasts, formats, systems, trade secrets, data gathering methods and/or strategies of the Company or any Affiliate of the Company. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Confidential Information will not include any information that is, or becomes, generally available to the public (unless such availability occurs as a result of the Executive's breach of any of his obligations under this Section). If the Executive is in breach of any of the provisions of this Section 6, or if any such breach is threatened by the Executive, in addition to and without limiting or waiving any other rights or remedies available to the Company at law or in equity, the Company shall be entitled to immediate injunctive relief in any court, domestic or foreign, having the capacity to grant such relief, without the necessity of posting a bond, to restrain any such breach or threatened breach and to enforce the provisions of this Section 6. The Executive agrees that there is no adequate remedy at law for any such breach or threatened breach and, if any action or proceeding is brought seeking injunctive relief, the Executive will not use as a defense thereto that there is an adequate remedy at law.

7. Successors and Assigns. This Agreement will bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive, the Company, the Executive's and the Company's respective successors and assigns and the Executive's estate, heirs and legal representatives (as applicable). The Company will require any successor to all or substantially all of its business and/or assets, whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, acquisition of stock, or, by an agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Executive, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place.

The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party. The headings of the sections contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and will not be deemed to control or affect the meaning or construction of any provision of this Agreement.

(d) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed and delivered in separate counterparts (including by means of facsimile), each of which is deemed to be an original and all of which taken together constitute one and the same agreement. This Agreement will become effective only when counterparts have been executed and delivered by all parties whose names are set forth on the signature page(s) hereof.

(e) Applicable Law. This Agreement will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Colorado, applied without reference to principles of conflict of laws.

(f) Legal Fees and Other Expenses. The Company will pay or reimburse the Executive for all legal fees and expenses incurred by the Executive in connection with the review, preparation and negotiation of this Agreement, any option agreement, restricted stock award, Equity Award and/or any other agreements or plans referenced herein and any documents related thereto. Any such reimbursement will be made as soon as practicable following submission of a reimbursement request, but no later than the later of (i) the end of the year following the year during which the underlying expense was incurred or (ii) the end of the year following the year in which the Executive's right to such reimbursement arises.

(g) Compliance with Section 409A. To the extent that the provisions of Section 409A of the Code or any Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder are applicable to any amounts payable hereunder, the parties intend that this Agreement will meet the requirements of such Code section and regulations and that the provisions hereof will be interpreted in a manner that is consistent with such intent. If, however, the Executive is liable for the payment of any tax, penalty or interest pursuant to Section 409A of the Code, or any successor or like provision (the "409A Tax"), with respect to any payments or property transfers received or to be received under this Agreement or otherwise, the Company will pay the Executive an amount (the "Special Reimbursement") which, after payment to the Executive (or on the Executive's behalf) of any federal, state and local taxes, including, without limitation, any further tax, penalty or interest under Section 409A of the Code, with respect to or resulting from the Special Reimbursement, equals the net amount of the 409A Tax. Any payment due to the Executive under this Section will be made to the Executive, or on behalf of the Executive, as soon as practicable after the determination of the amount of such payment, but no sooner than the date on which the Company is required to withhold such amount or the Executive is required to pay such amount to the Internal Revenue Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all payments under this Section will be made to the Executive, or on the Executive's behalf, no later than the end of the year following the year in which the Executive or the Company paid the related taxes, interest or penalties. The Executive will cooperate with the Company in taking such actions as the Company may reasonably request to assure that this Agreement will meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and any regulations promulgated thereunder and to limit the amount of any additional payments required by this Section 9(g) to be made to the Executive.

(h) Amendment and Waiver. The provisions of this Agreement may be amended only by a writing signed by the Company and the Executive. No waiver by a party of a breach or default hereunder will be valid unless in a writing signed by the waiving party, and no such waiver will be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

(i) Withholding. All payments to the Executive or under this Agreement will be subject to withholding on account of federal, state and local taxes as required by law.

(j) Survival. This Agreement will survive a Separation or the expiration of the Employment Period and will remain in full force and effect after such Separation.

(k) Arbitration. Except as provided in Section 6, any controversy, claim or dispute arising out of or in any way relating to this Agreement (including whether such controversy, claim or dispute is subject to arbitration), excepting only claims that may not, by statute, be arbitrated, will be submitted to binding arbitration. Both the Executive and the Company acknowledge that they are relinquishing their right to a jury trial. The Executive and the Company agree that arbitration will be the exclusive method for resolving disputes arising out of or related to the Executive's employment with the Company.

The arbitration will be administered by JAMS in accordance with the Employment Arbitration Rules & Procedures of JAMS then in effect and subject to JAMS Policy on Employment Arbitration Minimum Standards, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Arbitration will be commenced and heard in the Denver, Colorado metropolitan area. Only one arbitrator will preside over the proceedings, who will be selected by agreement of the parties from a list of five or more qualified arbitrators provided by the arbitration tribunal, or if the parties are unable to agree on an arbitrator within 10 business days following receipt of such list, the arbitration tribunal will select the arbitrator. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law (and the law of remedies, if applicable) of Colorado or federal law, or both, as applicable to the claim(s) asserted. In any arbitration, the burden of proof will be allocated as provided by applicable law. The arbitrator will have the authority to award any and all legal and equitable relief authorized by the law applicable to the claim(s) being asserted in the arbitration, as if the claim(s) were brought in a federal court of law. Either party may bring an action in court to compel arbitration under this Agreement and to enforce an arbitration award. Discovery, such as depositions or document requests, will be available to the Company and the Executive as though the dispute were pending in U.S. federal court. The arbitrator will have the ability to rule on pre-hearing motions as though the matter were in a U.S. federal court, including the ability to rule on a motion for summary judgment.

If permitted by applicable law, the fees of the arbitrator and any other fees for the administration of the arbitration that would not normally be incurred if the action were brought in a court of law (e.g., filing fees or room rental fees) will be shared equally by the parties. If the foregoing is not permitted by applicable law, the fees of the arbitrator and any other fees for the administration of the arbitration that would not normally be incurred if the action were brought in a court of law will be paid by the Company, provided that the Executive will be required to pay the amount of filing fees equal to that which the Executive would be required to pay to file an action in a Colorado state court. Each party will pay its own attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in connection with the arbitration, unless the relief authorized by law allows otherwise and the arbitrator determines that such fees and costs will be paid in a different manner. The arbitrator must provide a written decision that is subject to limited judicial review consistent with applicable law. If any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be unenforceable by an arbitrator or a court of law, that part may be severed or reformed so as to make the balance of this arbitration provision enforceable.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement on the date first written above.
