places within the County. The rights granted hereunder shall be non-exclusive
and shall not be transferred or assigned without the prior approval of the
County as specified in Section 14 of this Agreement, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld.

        (b) The Grantee shall have the right to use and occupy roads, streets,
alleys, public ways and easements for the purposes of installing its wires,
cables, and associated equipment in or on poles, by direct burial, or in
underground conduits as necessary for the operation of the cable system. This
authority, however, does not obviate the need for

<PAGE>   6

obtaining permits from the County for construction involving the disturbance of
public streets, sidewalks or thoroughfares and for compliance with all County
regulations and requirements relative to construction and operation of
facilities in the public rights-of-way.

        Section 4. Compliance with Applicable Laws and Ordinances. The
Franchisee shall, at all times during the life of this Agreement, be subject to
all lawful exercise of the police power by the County consistent with the
Franchisee's contractual rights, and shall be required to comply fully with all
federal and state statutes and regulations governing cable communications.

        Section 5. Provision of Service.

        (a) 1. A Grantee which is not already serving the entire franchise area
shall provide service to all portions of the franchise area reaching a minimum
density of thirty (30) dwelling units per linear strand mile, as measured from
the nearest coaxial cable line, within twelve (12) months after the grant of a
franchise.

        2. Grantee shall provide aerial or buried drop lines to new subdivisions
within the franchise area at the request of the developer provided that the
developer contracts and agrees with the Grantee to pay the cost of the extension
of the service.

        3. Grantee shall extend and make cable television service available to
any resident within the franchise area who requests connection at the standard
connection charge if the connection to the 

                                       6
<PAGE>   7

resident would require no more than a standard one hundred and fifty (150) foot
aerial drop or a seventy-five (75) foot buried drop line or extension from the
nearest coaxial feeder cable. With respect to requests for connection requiring
an aerial or buried drop line in excess of the maximum standard distance,
Grantee shall extend and make available cable television service to such
residents at a connection charge not to exceed its actual costs for the distance
exceeding the standard one hundred and fifty (150) feet of aerial or
seventy-five (75) feet of underground cable respectively.

        4. In areas with fewer than thirty (30) residential units per proposed
cable bearing strand mile, Grantee shall offer a cost-sharing arrangement with
residents. A dwelling unit will be counted for this purpose if its lot fronts a
street. The cost-sharing arrangement shall consist of the following:

        5. At the request of a resident desiring service, Grantee shall
determine the cost of the plant extension required to provide service to the
potential subscriber from the closest point on the cable system where it is
technically feasible. The cost of construction shall be allocated based on the
following formula:

        6. If a request for extension of service into a residential area
requires the construction of cable plant which does not pass at least thirty
(30) potential subscribers per proposed cable bearing strand mile, 


                                       7
<PAGE>   8

Grantee and residents who agree to subscribe to cable service will each bear
their proportionate share of construction costs. For example, if there are five
(5) dwelling units per proposed cable bearing strand mile, Grantee's share will
equal 5/30ths or one sixth (1/6) of the construction cost. The remaining cost
will be shared equally by each subscriber.

        7. Should additional residents actually subscribe to cable television
service in areas where subscribers have already paid a proportionate share under
the extension cost sharing formula, subscribers who have previously paid a
proportionate share under the extension formula shall be reimbursed pro rata for
their contribution or a proportional share thereof. In such case, the pro rata
shares shall be recalculated and each new subscriber shall pay the new pro rata
share, and all subscribers who previously paid a proportionate share shall
receive pro rata refunds. In the event such subscribers (or prior subscribers)
have been disconnected or have moved and owe the Grantee money which has not
been recovered, Grantee shall have the right to first apply the refund to
amounts owed the Grantee and give the balance, if any to the subscriber. At such
time as there are thirty (30) potential subscribers per cable bearing strand
mile, the subscribers shall receive their pro rata share of construction costs.
In any event, one (1) year after the completion of a project, subscribers who
have paid a share of line extension costs are no longer eligible for refunds,
and the amounts paid in construction costs will be credited to the plant account
of Grantee.

                                       8
<PAGE>   9

        8. Where the density of residential dwelling and occupied commercial or
industrial structures, adverse terrain, or other factors render extension of the
system and offering of cable service impractical, technically infeasible or
would create an economic hardship, the County may, upon petition of the Grantee,
either waive the extension of the system into such areas, or allow the extension
and offer of service on special terms or conditions which are reasonable and
fair to the County, the Grantee and potential subscribers in such areas.

        (b) The Franchisee shall extend service to each school passed by the
cable system. No charge shall be made for installation or for basic service,
except the Franchisee may: 1.) charge for its cost of installation if more than
one connection is desired at each building; or 2.) charge for that portion of
the cost of installation which exceeds One Hundred Dollars ($100.00). If during
the term of this Agreement, new schools are constructed within the County, the
County may also require the extension of service to such schools under the same
terms and conditions as for existing public buildings.

        (c) The initial subscriber rates are to be as specified in Exhibit "A"
hereto. Subscriber rates may be later modified as allowed by federal law or
regulation.

        (d) Regular basic service shall consist of a minimum of 12 channels. The
Franchisee shall create and provide such other categories of service as it may
deem necessary, except that the total number of channels available in all
categories of service shall not be less than 35 

                                       9
<PAGE>   10

channels. The programming carried shall be determined by the Franchisee;
provided, however, the County may suggest changes from time-to-time that it
believes will better satisfy public needs in terms of broad categories of
programming.

        (e) The Grantee shall provide written information of each of the
following areas at the time of installation of service, at least annually to all
subscribers, and at any time upon request:

        products and services offered; prices and options for programming
services and conditions of subscription to programming and other services;
installation and services maintenance policies; instructions on how to use the
cable service; channel positions of programming carried on the system; and
billing and complaint procedures, including the address and telephone number of
the local franchise authority's cable office.

        Section 6.    Liability and Indemnification.

        (a) By its acceptance of this Agreement, the Grantee specifically agrees
that it will indemnify and hold the County, including all its officials,
employees and agents, harmless against any and all claims arising out of the
grant of this franchise and the operation of Grantee's cable system. The Grantee
shall pay all expenses incurred by the County in defending itself against all
such claims, including all out-of-pocket expenses such as the reasonable value
of any service rendered by the County Attorney or any employees of the County.

        (b) The Grantee shall maintain throughout the terms of this Agreement
comprehensive liability insurance insuring the County, including its officials,
employees and agents, and the Grantee with


                                       10
<PAGE>   11

regard to all damages with respect to operations performed by, or on behalf of,
the Grantee in the minimum amounts as specified below:

        1. A general comprehensive liability policy indemnifying, defending and
saving harmless the County, its officers, boards, commissions, agents or
employees from any and all claims by any person whatsoever on account of injury
to or death of a person or persons occasioned by the operations of the Grantee
under the franchise herein granted, or alleged to have been so caused or
occurred, with a minimum liability of Five Hundred thousand Dollars ($500,000)
per personal injury, death of any one person or damage to property and One
Million Dollars ($1,000,000) for personal injury, death of any two or more
persons in any one occurrence or damage to property.

        2. All insurance policies called for herein shall be in a form
satisfactory to the County and shall require thirty (30) days written notice of
any cancellation to both the County and the Grantee. The Grantee shall, in the
event of any such cancellation notice, obtain, pay all premiums for, and file
with the County, written evidence of the issuance of replacement policies within
thirty (30) days following receipt by the County or the Grantee of any notice of
cancellation. In recognition of the foregoing each party agrees to cause their
respective insurance carriers to waive any rights of subrogation.

        (c) The Grantee shall, on or before the effective date of this
Agreement, establish a performance bond in the amount of ten thousand 


                                       11
<PAGE>   12

dollars ($10,000), which shall be used for insuring that the Grantee will
fulfill and perform each term and condition of this Agreement.

        (d) Because the County will suffer damages from any violation of this
Agreement, which damages may be difficult to quantify, the County and the
Franchisee agree to the following schedule of liquidated damages:

        (1) Failure to file reports or supply information as required - $50 per
            day

        (2) Failure to perform annual sweep and balance tests - $100 per day

            required - $100 per day.

        (6) Failure to maintain customer service standards - $50
            per day. 

        (7) Other material violations - $100 per day violations per day
            that each violation continues.

Before assessing the Franchisee for liquidated damages, the County shall give
written notification to the Franchisee in advance so that the Franchisee will
have notice of the violation and an opportunity to correct it. The liquidated
damages shall not commence accruing for uncorrected violation until the 30th day
following the date the notice was received by the Franchisee. In the event the
Grantee is prevented or delayed in the performance of any of its obligations
under this Agreement 


                                       12

or noncompliance with the provisions of the Agreement nor shall it suffer any
