         before September 30, 1997;"

                 10.  Section 10.13 of the Asset Purchase Agreement is
hereby amended by deleting the definitions of "Aggregate 1996 Broadcast Cash
Flow of the Stations," "Broadcast Cash Flow," "Escrow Agent" and "Escrow
Agreement."

                  11. All references to radio stations WTAM-AM and WLFT-FM in
Cleveland, Ohio (the "Cleveland Stations") and any information relating thereto
shall be deemed to be deleted from the Schedules to the Asset Purchase
Agreement.

                  12. The Escrow Agreement dated as of October 15, 1996 among
Buyer, Seller and The First National Bank of Chicago, as escrow agent, is
hereby terminated.

                  13. The parties agree that if, on or before March 31, 1998,
Seller consummates the sale of all of the assets, business and property of the
Cleveland Stations to a non-affiliated third party for a purchase price of less
than $45,000,000, Buyer will pay to Seller by wire transfer of immediately
available funds within three business days of receipt of notice from Seller (in
the form contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement and specifying the
appropriate wire transfer instructions) of the consummation of such sale the
difference between $45,00,000 and the actual purchase price paid to Seller in
respect of the Cleveland Stations; provided, however, that in no event shall
the liability of Buyer pursuant to this Section 13 exceed $5,000,000. For
purposes of this Section 13, "purchase price" shall include cash and non-cash
consideration, including securities, property and the value of any
noncompetition or similar agreements benefitting Seller, and non-cash
consideration shall be valued at its fair market value on the date of
consummation of the sale of the Cleveland Stations.

                  14. Simultaneously with the execution of this Amendment No.
1, Buyer agrees to pay to Seller $10,000,000 in cash by wire transfer of
immediately available funds to the account specified by Seller. In addition,
simultaneously with the execution of this Amendment No. 1, Buyer is delivering
to Seller a letter of credit in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A in the
sum of $5,000,000 issued by Chase Manhattan, N.A. (the "Letter of Credit").
Pursuant to the terms of the Letter of Credit, Seller shall have the right on
or after May 30, 1997 to draw the amount of $5,000,000 in the Letter of Credit;
provided, however, that Seller agrees that it will not draw upon the Letter of
Credit if, prior to May 30, 1997, Buyer delivers to the account specified by
Seller by wire transfer of immediately available funds $5,000,000 in cash in


                                       3

satisfaction of Buyer's obligation to cause $5,000,000 to be paid to Seller
pursuant to this sentence. If the Closing (as defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement) occurs, the $15,000,000 to be paid to Seller pursuant to this
Section 14 shall be credited towards the Purchase Price (as defined in the
Asset Purchase Agreement) to be paid to Seller by Buyer at the Closing.

                  15. Each of Buyer and Seller covenant and agree to file with
the Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the Department of
Justice within 10 days of the date hereof the notifications and other
information required to be filed by such party under the Improvements Act (as
defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), or the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder, with respect to this Amendment No. 1.

                  16. This Amendment No. 1 shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the internal laws (as opposed to the conflict of
laws provisions) of the State of Illinois.

                  17. This Amendment No. 1 may be executed in one or more
counterparts, each of which shall be considered an original instrument, but
all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement, and shall become
binding when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties
and delivered to each of Seller and Buyer.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this
Amendment No. 1 to be executed as of the day and year first above written.
