page 3 Summary of Proposed Deal Structure Deal would allow SPE to consolidate GSN in the near-term while delaying the majority of the cash payment to future years For $60MM ($(9)MM net cash impact), SPE would acquire an additional 5% of GSN at a valuation of $1.2BN (bringing SPE’s ownership to 40%) and acquire management control of GSN DIRECTV would be issued a put for an additional 18% of GSN at an equity valuation of 13x prior calendar year OIBDA (1), capped at $288MM and with a floor of $234MM –Three annual trigger windows beginning April 1 of 2012 (FYE13), 2013 (FYE14) and 2014 (FYE15) (2) –Once the put is triggered, certain competition filings and clearances may be required in the U.S. and other jurisdictions, as well as other consents prior to closing of put –SPE would have the flexibility to pay the first half of the put price in the year it is triggered and the second half one year later, with a 10% return to DIRECTV on the second payment only SPE would be granted a call for the additional 18% of GSN at a valuation of 13x prior calendar year OIBDA with a floor of $234MM –Trigger window would begin immediately upon expiration of DIRECTV’s last trigger window for the put –Exercise of the call would be subject to appropriate Sony approvals at the time of exercise A buy / sell provision will apply to SPE’s and DIRECTV’s interests in GSN but cannot be triggered until April 2015 (FYE16) –The currently existing buy/sell mechanism would be replaced –Receiving party must elect to either purchase all of the initiating member’s ownership interest in GSN or sell all of the receiving party’s interest in GSN to initiating party (cannot be unilaterally forced to buy) (1)EBITDA before executive compensation and earn-outs (2)If GSN’s financial statements for the previous calendar year are not available by April 1, exercise period will commence on the day when financial statements are delivered to DIRECTV

GSN Valuation Summary page 4 NOTES: CY2010 Adj. EBITDA = $84.304MM CY2011 Adj. EBITDA = $98.204MM Houlihan Lokey Enterprise Value equals Equity Value less cash of $51MM, plus $0 debt, plus a $40MM valuation adjustment to account for LTIC in excess of normalized levels (which excess was excluded from HL’s comparables and DCF analysis) 5% transaction Equity Value adjusted to Enterprise Value by subtracting $51MM of cash and adding $0 debt 20% put Equity Value adjusted to Enterprise Value by subtracting $57MM of cash and adding $0 debt (1)Calculated from DCF analysis, adjusted EBITDA multiples and transaction multiples (2)Assumes DIRECTV triggers the put in April 2012 Initial 5% purchase based on an Equity Value of $1.2BN with an implied Enterprise Value / CY10 Adj. EBITDA multiple of 13.6X If exercised in April 2012, 18% put would imply an Equity Valuation of $1.342BN and implied Enterprise Value / CY2011 Adj. EBITDA multiple would be 13.1X (2) Step-up gain of approximately $330MM on the 35% of GSN that SPE already owns would imply an Equity Valuation of $1.2BN (book value of SPE’s existing 35% is projected to be $87MM)

page 5 Financial Impact: Estimate of Increased EBIT Acquiring management control would allow SPE to consolidate GSN and is expected to increase SPE’s EBIT by $10MM-$40MM per year once initial purchase price amortization (PPA) levels taper off in FYE13 (1) The valuation of intangible assets and related amortization will be undertaken by a valuation expert. The amounts presented are management's estimates and final amounts may vary by more than 10%.

page 6 Financial Impact: Estimate of Cash Impact IRR (1) Pay put in one payment: –Pre-tax IRR of 18% –Post-tax IRR of 13% Pay put in two tranches: –Pre-tax IRR of 20% –Post-tax IRR of 15% Payback Period (1) If 18% put is not triggered, deal has an expected payback of less than 2 years If 18% put is triggered, deal has an expected payback of 10 years Impact on cash if DIRECTV triggers put in April 2012 (1) Exit valuation based on Houlihan Lokey report; assumes 18% put is triggered by DIRECTV in April 2012

page 7 Financial Impact: Potential Put Dates and Payment Plans Notes: (1)IRR calculation assumes exit value occurs at later of 12/31/2013 (the Houlihan Lokey terminal value date) or date of the final put payment Payback on put specifically in all scenarios is approximately years, which is in addition to just under 2 year payback on the initial 5% purchase April 2012 put based on 13x CY2011 OIBDA of $103.2MM = $1.342BN valuation (SPE 18% put payment = $241MM) April 2013 put based on 13x CY2012 OIBDA of $121.6MM = $1.581BN valuation (SPE 18% put payment = $285MM) April 2014 put based on 13x CY2013 OIBDA of $145.5MM = $1.891BN but capped at $1.6BN (SPE 18% put payment = $288MM)

page 11 Financial Impact: Cash Flow Based on Single Put Payment (Option A) (1) If SPE pays the entire 18% put at one time would require a $241MM cash outflow in FYE 2013 Buy-up would increase SPE’s share of distributable cash to $26MM in FYE12, $53MM in FYE13 and $80MM in FYE14 under GSN’s estimated dividend policy Note, SPE’s share of GSN’s distributable cash will be lower if GSN pays out a greater portion of cash in dividends as SPE consolidates 100% of any cash that remains on GSN’s balance sheet (1) Assumes DIRECTV triggers the put in April 2012 (2) Estimates based on GSN projections (3)FYE11 represents an estimated $51MM of cash on GSN's balance sheet that SPE would consolidate (4)Of the $50MM dividend projected for FYE12, the first $30MM would be allocated at the pre deal ownership proportion of 65% to DIRECTV and 35% to SPE, as per the final deal terms
