PlanetOut, the HMI Owners, the HMI Entities, HMI Merger Sub and Here Media Inc. later amended the Merger Agreement by entering into the First Amendment to Agreement and Plan of Merger dated April 27, 2009 (the “First Amendment”). The Merger Agreement is attached as Exhibit 2.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on January 14, 2009.

On May 13, 2009, PlanetOut agreed that the amount of cash Here Media and the HMI Entities is required to have as a condition to closing could be reduced further by the amount, not to exceed $1 million, spent pursuant to a plan reasonably approved by PlanetOut for prints of and advertising expenses for the film “Departures,” the 2008 Academy Award ^® in the category of Best Foreign Language Film, in exchange for the contribution to Here Media at the closing of the proposed business combination of the United States distribution rights with respect to such film, including rights to certain revenues related thereto (the “Agreement”).
