(iii) Accrual and Accumulation of Dividends. Designated Preferred Dividends and Designated Preferred Penalty Dividends, if any, shall accrue whether or not the Corporation has earnings or profits, whether or not there are funds legally available for the payment of such dividends and whether or not dividends are declared. Designated Preferred Dividends and Designated Preferred Penalty Dividends, if any, shall be cumulative such that any Designated Preferred Dividends or Designated Preferred Penalty Dividends accrued but not paid on any Dividend Payment Date shall accumulate until paid and shall accrue additional dividends to and including the date of payment thereof at the Dividend Rate and giving effect to any Designated Preferred Penalty Dividend then in effect, compounded quarterly on each subsequent Dividend Payment Date.

(iv) Form of Payment. All Designated Preferred Dividends and Designated Preferred Penalty Dividends, if any, declared by the Board of Directors and paid by the Corporation shall be payable in cash.

(v) Restriction on Dividend Payments. No dividend whatsoever shall be declared or paid upon, or any sum set apart for the payment of dividends upon, any outstanding share of Designated Preferred with respect to any Dividend Period unless all dividends for all preceding Dividend Periods have been declared and paid upon, or declared and a sufficient sum set apart for the payment of such dividends upon, all outstanding shares of Designated Preferred. Unless all Accumulated Dividends on all outstanding Designated Preferred shall have been declared and paid, or declared and a sufficient sum for the payment thereof set apart, then: (A) no dividend or distribution (other than a dividend or distribution payable solely in shares of, or options, warrants or rights to subscribe for or purchase shares of, any Junior Securities) shall be declared or paid upon, or any sum set apart for the payment of any dividends or distributions upon, any shares of Junior Securities or Parity Securities, except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred and all such Parity Securities on which dividends are accrued, accumulated and unpaid in proportion to the total amounts to which holders of all such shares are then entitled; (B) no shares of Junior Securities or Parity Securities shall be purchased, redeemed or otherwise acquired or retired for value (excluding an exchange for shares of Junior Securities) by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries, except for purchases, redemptions or other acquisitions or retirements for value paid ratably on the Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred and all such Parity Securities; and (C) no monies shall be paid into or set apart or made available for a sinking or other like fund for the purchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for value of any shares of Junior Securities by the Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that the foregoing limitations shall not apply with respect to Junior Securities if at the date of each such dividend, distribution, purchase, redemption, acquisition, retiring for value, payment, setting apart or making available, full cumulative dividends determined in accordance herewith on the Designated Preferred have been paid in full for all dividend periods ended prior to the date of such event and such event is otherwise permitted by SECTION 2(g)(xvii) of this ARTICLE IV.

(c) Liquidation.

(i) Liquidation Preference. In the event of any Liquidation, before any payment or distribution of the Corporation's assets (whether capital or surplus), or proceeds thereof, is made to, or set apart for, the holders of Junior Securities, holders of Designated Preferred shall be entitled to receive in respect of each share of Designated Preferred payment out of the Corporation's assets, or the proceeds thereof, available for distribution of an amount equal to the sum of (A) the Stated Liquidation Preference, (B) any Accumulated Dividends accrued with respect to such share and (C) any dividends accrued during the current Dividend Period to, but not including, the date of final distribution with respect to such share. If, upon any Liquidation, the Corporation's assets, or proceeds thereof, are insufficient to pay, in full, the Stated Liquidation Preference and the other liquidating payments to which the holders of any Parity Securities are entitled, then such assets, or the proceeds thereof, shall be distributed among the holders of Designated Preferred and such Parity Securities ratably in proportion to the respective amounts that would be payable on such shares of Designated Preferred and any such Parity Securities if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full.

(ii) No Further Participation. After payment of the full amount of the sum of (A) the Stated Liquidation Preference, (B) any Accumulated Dividends accrued with respect to such share and (C) any dividends accrued during the current Dividend Period to, but not including, the date of final distribution with respect to such share, to which the holders of shares of Designated Preferred are entitled, the holders of the Designated Preferred shall have no further right or claim to any of the Corporation's remaining assets, or the proceeds thereof.

(d) Redemption.

(i) Mandatory Redemption. On December 21, 2011 (the "Mandatory Redemption Date"), the Corporation shall redeem all of the outstanding shares of Designated Preferred, in cash, at a redemption price, calculated as of such date, equal to the sum of (A) the Stated Liquidation Preference, (B) any Accumulated Dividends accrued with respect to such share and (C) any dividends accrued during the current Dividend Period to, but not including, the date of final distribution with respect to such share. If the Corporation does not have sufficient funds or is not permitted under applicable law to redeem all of the outstanding shares of Designated Preferred on the Mandatory Redemption Date, the Corporation shall use all legally available funds to effect such redemption with respect to the maximum number of shares of Designated Preferred. The Corporation shall allocate the shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed ratably between the Series A Preferred and the Series B Preferred in proportion to the number of shares of each such series then outstanding. The Corporation shall allocate the shares of Series A Preferred and Series B Preferred to be redeemed ratably among the holders of the outstanding             shares of each such series in proportion to the number of such shares then held by each holder. The shares of Designated Preferred not redeemed shall remain outstanding and entitled to all of the rights and preferences provided herein. Subject to the other provisions hereof, the Corporation shall redeem the balance of the shares of Designated Preferred on the first date thereafter on which the Corporation may legally do so (subject to the allocation provisions set forth above with respect to any further redemption in part).

(ii) Notice of Redemption. The Corporation shall give notice of the mandatory redemption of Designated Preferred to each holder of record of Designated Preferred not less than 30 days nor more than 60 days before the redemption date; provided that neither the failure to give such notice nor any defect therein shall affect the validity of the procedure for the redemption of any shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed except as to any holder to whom the Corporation has failed to give said notice or whose notice was defective. The notice of mandatory redemption shall state: (A) the redemption date; (B) the redemption price; (C) if less than all Designated Preferred are to be redeemed, the aggregate number of             shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed and the number of shares held by the addressee of such notice to be redeemed; (D) the place or places where certificates evidencing shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed are to be surrendered for payment of the redemption price; and (E) that, on the redemption date, the redemption price shall become due and payable upon each such share of Designated Preferred to be redeemed and that dividends on the shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed shall cease to accrue on such redemption date. Such notice shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, mailed to each holder of record of Designated Preferred at such holder's address as the same appears on the Corporation's stock register. Upon surrender of the certificates for shares of Designated Preferred so redeemed, in accordance with the notice of mandatory redemption, such shares of Designated Preferred shall be redeemed by the Corporation at the redemption price aforesaid. If fewer than the total number of shares of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred represented by a certificate are redeemed, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to the holder a new certificate representing the number of unredeemed shares of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred, as the case may be, held by such holder.

(iii) Redemption Price. Prior to any redemption date, the Corporation shall segregate and hold in trust an amount sufficient to pay the redemption price of all shares of Designated Preferred to be redeemed on that date.

(iv) No Rights in Respect of Redeemed Shares. From and after the redemption date (unless the Corporation defaults in the payment in full of the redemption price of the shares called for redemption), dividends on the shares of Designated Preferred so called for redemption shall cease to accrue, and all rights of the holders thereof, as holders of such shares of Designated Preferred (except the right to receive from the Corporation the redemption price), shall cease.

(v) Restrictions After Failure to Effect Full Redemption. If and for so long as the Corporation fails to redeem, for any reason, all of the outstanding             shares of Designated Preferred pursuant to this SECTION 2(d), the Corporation shall not, directly or indirectly, (A) redeem or otherwise acquire any Parity Securities or discharge any mandatory or optional redemption, sinking fund or other similar obligation in respect of any Parity Securities (except in connection with a redemption, sinking fund or other similar obligation in which shares of Designated Preferred receive a pro rata share) or (B) declare or make any distribution on Junior Securities, or redeem or otherwise acquire any Junior Securities, or discharge any mandatory or optional redemption, sinking fund or other similar obligation in respect of Junior Securities.

(e) Repurchase Offer Upon Change of Control.

(i) Repurchase Offer. At least 20 days prior to the consummation by the Corporation of any transaction that would result in or constitute a Change of Control, the Corporation shall give notice to each holder of Designated Preferred describing the transaction or transactions that constitute a Change of Control and providing a written offer (the "Repurchase Offer") to purchase all of the shares of Designated Preferred held by such holder at a purchase price for such shares equal to 101% of the sum of (A) the Stated Liquidation Preference, (B) any Accumulated Dividends accrued with respect to such share and (C) any dividends accrued during the current Dividend Period to, but not including, the date of final distribution with respect to such share, calculated as of the day on which such purchase is consummated (such amount, the "Repurchase Price"). The Repurchase Offer shall be conditioned upon the consummation by the Corporation of the Change of Control but shall otherwise be irrevocable.

(ii) Compliance with Securities Laws. The Corporation shall comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-l under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and any other securities laws and regulations to the extent those laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of Designated Preferred as a result of a Change of Control.

Upon surrender of the certificates for shares of Designated Preferred so tendered (properly endorsed for transfer), free and clear of any restrictions, liens or claims, together with such other instruments of transfer as the Corporation may reasonably request, in accordance with the Repurchase Offer, the Corporation shall promptly deliver to each holder of shares of Designated Preferred so tendered the applicable payment for those shares of Designated Preferred. If fewer than the total number of shares of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred represented by a certificate are repurchased, the Corporation shall issue and deliver to the holder a new certificate representing the number of unpurchased shares of Series A Preferred or Series B Preferred, as the case may be, held by such holder. The Corporation shall publicly announce the results of its Repurchase Offer on or as soon as practicable after consummation of the Repurchase Offer.

(iv) Third Party Change of Control Offer. The Corporation shall not be required to make a Repurchase Offer upon the occurrence of a Change of Control if a third party makes an offer to purchase the Designated Preferred in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements described in this SECTION 2(e) and purchases all shares of Designated Preferred validly tendered and not withdrawn.

(v) Failure to Comply. The Corporation may not consummate any transaction that would result in or constitute a Change of Control unless it has complied in full with its obligations with respect thereto pursuant to this SECTION 2(e).

(2) If a Corporation Official who is also a Clear Channel Official is offered, or acquires knowledge of, a potential transaction or business opportunity that is or may be a corporate opportunity for any Corporation Entity in any manner, such Corporation Official shall have no duty to communicate or present such potential transaction or business opportunity to the Corporation or any Corporation Affiliate and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, not be liable to any Corporation Entity, or its stockholders, for breach of any fiduciary duty as a Corporation Official including without limitation by reason of the fact that any one or more of the Clear Channel Entities pursues or acquires such potential transaction or business opportunity for itself, directs such potential transaction or business opportunity to another person or entity, or otherwise does not communicate information regarding such potential transaction or business opportunity to the Corporation or any Corporation Affiliate.

(3) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this SECTION 3 of this ARTICLE V, the Corporation does not renounce any interest or expectancy it may have in any corporate opportunity that is expressly offered to any Corporation Official in writing solely in his or her capacity as a Corporation Official.

SECTION 5. In addition to, and notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this ARTICLE V, a potential transaction or business opportunity (1) that the Corporation Entities are not financially able, contractually permitted or legally able to undertake, or (2) that is, from its nature, not in the line of the Corporation Entities' business, is of no practical advantage to any Corporation Entity or that is one in which no Corporation Entity has any interest or reasonable expectancy, shall not, in any such case, be deemed to constitute a corporate opportunity belonging to the Corporation, or any Corporate Affiliate, and the Corporation, on behalf of itself and each Corporation Affiliate, to the fullest extent permitted by law, hereby renounces any interest therein.

SECTION 6. Anything in this Certificate of Incorporation to the contrary notwithstanding, the provisions of SECTIONS 3, 4 and 5 of this ARTICLE V shall automatically terminate, expire and have no further force and effect from and after the date on which no Corporation Official is also a Clear Channel Official.

SECTION 5. Vacancies. For so long as any shares of Designated Preferred are outstanding, any vacancy in the Board of Directors resulting from the death, disability, resignation or removal from office of any director shall be filled by the vote of stockholders that would have been required to remove such director pursuant to SECTION 4 of this ARTICLE VI. Any director so chosen shall be elected for the remainder of the term of his or her predecessor or until his or her earlier death, disability, resignation or removal.

(c) Insurance. The Corporation may maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any such expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.
