         1.7 Conversion of Shares. As of the Effective Date, by virtue of the
Mergers and without any action on the part of the holders thereof:

             (a) Each share of stock of each of NOC, CADCO, and QN outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Date (the "Stock") shall be canceled and
extinguished and converted into the right to receive, in the aggregate, (i)
$1,000,000 in cash, without any interest, and (ii) shares of the Class A Common
Stock of SFX (the "SFX Shares"), with a market value as of the close of
business on the date prior to the Effective Date of $9 million, such market
value to be determined by the average official closing price per share of said
stock for the twenty (20) consecutive trading days ending on the fifth day
prior to the Effective Date in the market on which it is publicly traded (the
"Closing Value") which Closing Value shall be reduced by 10% (the "Adjusted
Closing Value") for the purposes of computing the number of shares to be
delivered on the Effective Date (the "Merger Consideration"); provided,
however, if the market value of the SFX shares is less than $9 million based
upon the closing price of such shares on the day immediately preceding the
Effective Date, SFX shall deliver an additional amount of shares so that the
aggregate value of the SFX shares so delivered is not less than $9 million,
based on the closing price of such shares on the day immediately preceding the
Effective Date. For example, assuming that the Closing Value as of the
Effective Date is equal to $30 per share, then the number of SFX Shares to be
delivered to the shareholders of NOC and CADCO would be 333,333 shares ($30 per
share reduced by 10% = $27 per share and $9,000,000/$27 per share = 333,333
shares). The Merger Consideration shall be allocated and distributed among the
shareholders of NOC, CADCO and QN in accordance with Section 1.8 below;

             (b) Each share of Stock of NOC-Acquisition, CADCO-Acquisition and
QN-Acquisition outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Date shall be
converted without any action on the part of the holders thereof into one
validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of Stock of NOC, CADCO, and
QN, respectively;

             (c) Each share of Stock of NOC, CADCO, and QN held in the treasury
of said Companies or the treasury of any subsidiary of said Companies, and each
such share owned by SFX, NOC-Acquisition, CADCO Acquisition or QN Acquisition
or any other

                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>

subsidiary of SFX shall be canceled and cease to exist, and no payment or other
consideration shall be made in respect thereof: and

             (d) All notes and other debt instruments of each of the Companies
outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue to be outstanding subsequent
to the Effective Date as notes and other debt instruments of the applicable
Surviving Corporation subject to the terms and covenants thereof, and shall not
be affected by the Mergers; provided, however, that any liabilities of any
nature whatsoever to any Stockholder shall, except to the extent disclosed
herein or in the Schedules attached hereto, be extinguished.

         1.8 Payment for Shares of Stock. By no later than 9 a.m. on the
Effective Date, SFX and the SFX Subs shall cause the Merger Consideration to be
deposited with Robert E. Nederlander (the "Paying Agent") to be held pending
the consummation of Mergers. Upon the consummation of Mergers, the Paying Agent
shall distribute such Merger Consideration in accordance with a joint written
direction from the Stockholders to be provided to the Paying Agent on the
Effective Date.

         1.9 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Action. SFX, each of the SFX
Subs, the Companies and the Stockholders, respectively, shall take all such
action as may be necessary or appropriate in order to effectuate the Mergers as
promptly as possible. If, at any time after the Effective Date any further
action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement
and to vest the Surviving Corporations with full right, title and possession to
all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the
applicable Constituent Corporations, the officers and directors of such
corporations are fully authorized in the name of their corporation or otherwise
to take, and shall use reasonable efforts to take, all such action.

         1.10 Closing of the Company's Transfer Books. On the date hereof, the
stock transfer books of the Companies and the Companies Subsidiaries (as
defined below) shall be closed and no transfer of shares (other than shares
into which the capital stock of NOC

                                     - 5 -

Acquisition, CADCO Acquisition and QN Acquisition may be converted pursuant to
the Mergers), shall thereafter be made.

excluding, however, interest payments payable to Protix and Ogden), shall be
apportioned for the month in which the Effective Date occurs provided that SFX
shall receive a credit for any unpaid amounts for any other periods prior to
the Effective Date; and

         Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no
apportionment shall be made with respect to: (i) all related party loans or
payables which shall be canceled or satisfied by the Stockholders as of the
Effective Date, and (ii) any long term debt or other obligations of the
Companies to Ogden, Protix, Shawmut Bank or the Connecticut Development

Stockholders shall also apportion the following items of revenue and expense as

<PAGE>

                  (ii) utility expenses, including without limitation,
telephone, electricity and gas, on the basis of the most recently issued bills
therefor, with a subsequent reapportionment of such utilities promptly after
issuance of bills for the same for the period which includes in the Effective
Date; and

                  (iii) payments in lieu of taxes and additional rents payable
under leases (other than the Lease and Sublease Agreement between CPA and CPAP)
and any prepaid charges or advance payments under service contracts.

         C. The apportionments contemplated by this Section, to the extent
practicable, shall be made on the Effective Date. At least five (5) business
days prior to the estimated Effective Date, the Stockholders shall furnish to
SFX a proposed apportionment schedule with respect to the items set forth in
Sections 1.11(A) and (B). Thereafter, the Stockholders and SFX shall negotiate
in good faith in order to resolve any disputed amounts contained therein. In
the event that the Stockholders and SFX are unable to resolve any such disputed
items (the "Disputed Apportionments"), such dispute shall be resolved as
provided in Section 1.11(D) below. On the Effective Date, to the extent that
the aggregate apportionments which are not the subject of dispute shall result
(x) in an amount due to the Stockholders, SFX shall increase the amount of the
cash Merger Consideration in an amount equal to the amount due, or (y) in an
amount due to SFX, SFX shall be entitled to reduce the amount of the cash
Merger Consideration to the extent of such amount due SFX (but in no event to
exceed $100,000 exclusive of amounts required to repay the Nations Bank Loan
which shall be credited entirely in cash) and the balance of such amount due to
SFX shall be satisfied by reducing the amount of SFX Shares to be delivered to
the Stockholders by the dividing the balance of the amount due by the Closing
Value.

         D. Within thirty (30) days following the Effective Date, the
Stockholders shall deliver to SFX a schedule of all final apportionments which
were not made on the Effective Date together with a schedule of all Disputed
Apportionments including the Stockholder's position with respect thereto (the
"Final Schedule"). Within ten (10) days following receipt of such Final

                                     - 10 -
<PAGE>

Schedule, SFX shall either give the Stockholders written notice of acceptance
of such Final Schedule or the give the Stockholders written notice of any
remaining disputed amounts (a "Notice of Dispute"). If SFX fails to either
accept such Final Schedule or deliver a Notice of Dispute within said ten day
period, SFX shall be deemed to have accepted the Final Schedule. The Notice of
Dispute shall state the amount that SFX believes it is entitled to receive or
obligated to pay in respect of the final apportionments and any Disputed
Apportionments (the "SFX Amount") and the Stockholders shall have a period of
ten (10) days following receipt of the Notice of Dispute to either accept the
SFX Amount or to reject the SFX Amount. If the Stockholders reject the SFX
Amount and the amount in dispute is $10,000 or less in the aggregate, then the
disputed amount shall be shared equally between SFX and the Stockholders. If
the Stockholders reject the SFX Amount and the SFX Amount exceeds $10,000, and
the Stockholders and SFX unable to resolve any remaining differences within ten
(10) days following the rejection of the SFX Amount by the Stockholders, then
the such dispute shall be submitted to an independent arbitrator (the
"Apportionment Arbitrator") designated by the American Arbitration Association
under the expedited procedures then in effect for the resolution of commercial
disputes for resolution. The Arbitrator shall be a certified public accountant
designated by the American Arbitration Association. SFX and the Stockholders
shall share equally the costs and expenses of the Apportionment Arbitrator, but
each party shall bear its own legal and other expenses, if any. Upon final
resolution of the amount due in respect of the Final Schedule including any
Disputed Apportionments, the amounts due to either SFX or the Stockholders, as
the case may be, shall be paid in accordance with Section 1.11(C) hereof.

         SECTION 2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANIES

         Each of the Companies (in each case, the "Company") hereby represents

follows:

         2.1 Corporate Organization.

(a "Material Adverse Affect").

             (b) The copies of the Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws of
the Company and of each of its subsidiaries heretofore delivered to SFX are

         6.12 Casualty and Condemnation

              (a) If, prior to the Effective Date all or a substantial portion
of the Real Property shall be (i) condemned or taken by eminent domain, or (ii)
destroyed or damaged, at the option of SFX (subject, however, to the rights of
the Stockholders set forth in the next succeeding sentence), this Agreement
shall be null and void and of no further effect, and all monies paid hereunder
shall be returned promptly to SFX, with interest thereon. As used in this
Section 6.12, "a substantial portion of the Real Property" shall mean (A) in
the event of a condemnation or taking, a condemnation or taking of five (5%)
percent or more of the improvements at the Real Property, or such portion of
the parking or the means of ingress and egress which would cause a default by
the landlord under any of the leases or provide any tenant thereunder with the
right to terminate any such lease or any other condemnation or taking of the
Real Property that would inhibit the use, enjoyment or operation of the Real
Property as it currently exists, or (B) in the event of a casualty, the cost of
repair and/or replacement resulting from such casualty exceeds $250,000 (unless
the Stockholders shall elect to bear any costs or repair of such casualty in
excess of $250,000). In the event of such a cancellation by SFX, the

                                     - 46 -
<PAGE>

Companies shall be entitled to collect all proceeds from the condemnation or
eminent domain and all insurance proceeds payable by reason of such destruction
or damage. If SFX does not elect to exercise its right to terminate this
Agreement, there shall be no diminution of the Merger Consideration, but SFX
shall be entitled to receive all condemnation proceeds and all insurance
proceeds covering such loss or damage (plus payment from the Stockholders to
SFX in the amount of the deductible under the applicable insurance policy) and
the Company and its Subsidiaries shall assign irrevocably all such rights to
SFX at the Effective Date. The election of SFX hereunder must be exercised
within thirty (30) days after notice to SFX of the occurrence of the taking or
loss or damage, and if such taking or loss or damage occurs less than thirty
(30) days prior to the Effective Date, the Effective Date, shall be extended
for such additional period of time as may be necessary to afford SFX a full
thirty (30) days to make its election. The Companies covenant and agree to
notify SFX in writing immediately upon the Companies' or any of their
Subsidiaries having knowledge of any taking or the occurrence of any damage or
casualty.

              (b) If, prior to the Effective Date, less than a substantial
portion of the Real Property shall be (i) condemned or taken by eminent domain

cause to be restored, the Real Property to substantially and materially the
same condition as existed immediately prior to such taking or casualty, and the
Effective Date shall be extended to the extent reasonably necessary to allow
the Companies to substantially complete, or cause the completion of, such
restoration. To the extent that such condemnation, taking, destruction or
damage could reasonably be expected to be cured for an amount less than
$250,000, then the Companies and their respective Subsidiaries shall assign to
SFX and the SFX Subsidiaries all insurance and/or condemnation proceeds and the
Effective Date should not change.

                                     - 47 -
<PAGE>

hereinafter defined), for a breach of the representations and warranties set
forth in Sections 2.11(xxi)(the "Structural Warranty") and 2.17 (the

misrepresentation relating to the Unwind Warranties and/or the Additional
Unwind Warranties (as defined below) or otherwise relating to the structural or
physical condition of the Real Property, compliance with any Applicable
Environmental Laws or otherwise relating to presence of hazardous substances,

matters (whether based upon a breach of the Unwind Warranties or any other
representations or warranties contained in this Agreement which relate to such
matters). In addition, SFX and the SFX Subs shall have the right, for a period
of forty-five (45) days from the date of delivery to SFX or the SFX Subs, or
the completion by SFX of an "As Built Survey" of the Real Property, to assert a
claim against the Stockholders, on a Several Basis, for a breach of the
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.11 (x); (xi); (xvi) or
(xxii) (the "Additional Unwind Warranties") regardless of the actual knowledge
of the Companies. During the period from the Effective Date through and
including the last date on which the Unwind Procedure (as hereinafter defined)
may be consummated (the "Outside Date"), SFX and the SFX Subs shall, for
benefit of the Stockholders, comply with each of the covenants and conditions
of Sections 6.1, 6.2 and 6.3 hereof, other than those contained in Section
6.1(c)(viii), which were binding on the Companies and Stockholders for the
benefit of SFX and the SFX Subs between the date of this Agreement and the
Effective Date. In addition, SFX shall not cause the preferred stock of CPA to
be canceled unless the Outside Date shall have occurred without the Unwind
Procedure having been exercised.

              (ii) In the event that SFX or the SFX Subs shall elect to assert
a claim with respect to a breach of the Unwind Warranties or Additional Unwind
Warranties, SFX and/or the SFX Subs shall, within ninety (90) days from the
date hereof in the case of the Unwind Warranties or within thirty (30) days
following receipt of the "As Built Survey" in the case of the Additional Unwind
Warranties, to submit a written notice to the Stockholders (a "Demand

                                     - 48 -
<PAGE>

Notice") which shall contain a detailed description of the basis for such claim
and the estimated cost of curing such breach or the projected loss to the
Companies or the Subsidiaries from the inability to rebuild or use the Real
Property as currently used or constructed (the "Claim Amount").

              (iii) The Stockholders shall have a period of thirty (30) days
following receipt of a Demand Notice to elect by written notice to SFX and/or
the SFX Subs to either (a) accept the Demand Notice and the Claim Amount set
forth therein, (b) contest the Demand Notice, or (c) in the event that the
Claim Amount sought in such Demand Notice shall exceed $1,250,000 (inclusive of
any Claim Amount previously submitted in connection with the Additional Unwind
Warranties), elect to unwind the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in
accordance with Section 6.13(vii) hereof (the "Unwind Procedure").

              (iv) In the event that the Stockholders shall elect to accept the
Demand Notice, the Stockholders shall, within ten (10) days following such
acceptance, deliver to SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case may be, on a Several
Basis, the number of SFX Shares equal the Claim Amount which number of shares
shall be determined on the basis of the Adjusted Closing Value.

              (v) In the event that the Stockholders shall elect to contest the
Demand Notice, then the Stockholders shall and SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case
may be, shall attempt to mutually agree upon the Claim Amount. If the parties
are unable, within (10) days following the giving of notice of such contest, to
mutually agree upon the Claim Amount, then each of the parties shall submit
their determination of the appropriate Claim Amount (the Claim Amount submitted
by SFX or the SFX Subs is referred to as the "SFX Determination" and the Claim
Amount Submitted by the Stockholders is referred to as the "Stockholder
Determination") and the parties shall jointly appoint an independent structural
engineer and/or environmental engineer (the "Arbitrator") whose fee shall be
borne equally by SFX and the Stockholders. In the event that SFX and the
Stockholders are unable to jointly agree upon the Arbitrator within five (5)

procedures then outstanding of the American Arbitration Association. The
Arbitrator shall conduct such hearings and investigations as the Arbitrator
shall deem appropriate and shall, within thirty (30) days after the designation
of the Arbitrator, choose either the SFX Determination or the Stockholder
Determination (the "Final Claim Amount"), and such choice by the Arbitrator
shall be conclusive and binding upon the parties. The Arbitrator shall not have
the power to add to, modify or change any of the provisions of this Agreement.

              (vi) Within ten (10) days following the determination of the
Final Claim Amount, the Stockholders shall elect either to (x) accept the Final
Claim Amount, or (y) if the Final Claim Amount shall exceed $1,250,000, to
effectuate the Unwind Procedure. If the Stockholders elect to accept the Final
Claim Amount, then the Stockholders shall, within ten (10) days following such
acceptance, deliver to SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case may be, on a Several
Basis, the number of SFX Shares equal to the Final Claim Amount which number of
shares shall be based upon the Adjusted Closing Value. If the Stockholders
shall elect the Unwind Procedure, then the transactions contemplated hereunder
shall be subject to the unwind provisions set forth in Section 6.13(vii)
hereof.

              (vii) In the event that the Stockholders shall elect the Unwind
Procedure, then SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case may be, shall have the right,
within thirty (30) days following notice of such election, to elect either to
(x) accept the Unwind Procedure, or (y) reject the Unwind Procedure. In the
event that SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case may be, shall elect to reject the
Unwind Procedure, then the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect, the Final Claim Amount shall be deemed to be
the $1,250,000 and the Stockholders shall, after payment to SFX of $1,250,000,
have no further liability or obligations to SFX or the SFX Subs with respect to
the Unwind Warranties or the Additional Unwind Warranties.

              In the event that SFX or the SFX Subs, as the case may be, shall
accept the Unwind Procedure, then, within thirty (30) days following such
acceptance (the "Unwind Date"), the Stockholders, SFX and the SFX Subs shall
cause the following transactions to occur: (i) the

             (b) this Agreement shall become wholly void and of no force or

         SECTION 9 DUE DILIGENCE REVIEW; PURCHASER'S TERMINATION OPTION

         9.1 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, the
Company hereby acknowledges that SFX has had the opportunity prior to the
execution of this Agreement to examine all of the relevant legal and business
information and documents relating to the structural and environmental aspects
Real Property and to conduct an inspection of the Real Property. SFX hereby
acknowledges that the Companies have heretofore provided such information
relating to the foregoing as has been requested by SFX. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Companies shall, at the Companies' sole expense, within five (5)
days from the date hereof, if requested by SFX, provide to SFX copies of such
other records, agreements, plans and specifications, title reports and all
other material information and documents in the possession or control of the
Companies or their Subsidiaries.

         9.2 At all times prior to the Effective Date, SFX, its agents and
contractors shall have the right upon reasonable prior notice to enter upon the
Real Property for the purpose of conducting inspections and investigations of
any kind and nature. Notwithstanding the

                                     - 55 -
<PAGE>

foregoing, SFX shall not conduct intrusive physical inspections of the Real
Property without the prior written consent of the Companies which consent shall
not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, with the understanding that time is at
the essence with respect to this Section. Any such entry shall not, however, in
any manner whatsoever restrict or materially interfere with the operations of
the Real Property or impose any liability upon the Companies. The Companies
reserve the right to impose reasonable conditions upon SFX's access to the Real
Property if such access will restrict or materially interfere with the
operations of the Real Property or impose liability upon Real Property. SFX
hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold the Companies harmless from and
against any and all loss, cost, damage and expense (including, without
limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements) incurred by the
Companies in connection with SFX's access to the Real Property or the
activities of Purchaser, its agents, representatives, employees or contractors
thereon and to restore any damage resulting from its inspections thereof.

         9.3 If, at any time on or before February 14, 1997 or any extensions
thereof pursuant to section 6.2 above, (the "Due Diligence Period"), SFX shall
determine in its sole discretion to rescind this Agreement as a result of SFX's
determination that any aspect of the financing, use, operation, maintenance or
occupancy of all or any portion of the Real Property (including, without
limitation, matters relating to title to the Real Property, engineering
conditions at the Real Property, the presence or potential presence or release
of Hazardous Substances, applicable zoning and/or building codes, rules,
regulations, laws and/or ordinances, real estate taxes, assessments or impact
fees, the existence of violations of applicable laws, rules, regulations, codes
and/or ordinances or conditions which constitute such a violation, and the
contract of any leases affecting this Real Property or any portion thereof) is
not satisfactory to SFX. SFX shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
by providing written notice (the "Due Diligence Termination Notice") of such
termination to the Companies. Upon receipt of such notice by the Companies,
SFX's termination shall become effective. In the event that SFX exercises its
right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Section 9.4,
except as otherwise provided herein to the contrary, the terms and conditions
of this Agreement shall immediately be deemed null and void and shall have no
further force or effect. Time shall be of

                                     - 56 -
<PAGE>

the essence in regard to SFX timely providing the Companies with the Due
Diligence Termination Notice, and if SFX shall fail to timely give the Due
Diligence Termination Notice, the contingency otherwise provided for in this
Section 9.4 shall be conclusively deemed waived; provided, if and to the extent
SFX shall not be provided access to any portion of the Real Property or
documentation to be delivered by the Companies in accordance with this
Agreement, the Due Diligence Period shall toll.

agreement by SFX or an SFX Sub at any time after the Effective Date, each of
the holders shall immediately have the rights set forth in Sections 10.1 and
10.2 hereof, notwithstanding the fact that such rights would otherwise not
accrue until after the second anniversary of the Effective Date. For purposes
of this agreement, SFX shall be deemed to have materially breached this
agreement, if, among other things there shall be a "Change of Control" of SFX,

<PAGE>

change of control pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Federal
Communications Commission.

         SECTION 11 RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

         11.1 If any Stockholder (a "Selling Stockholder") elects to sell (the
"Third Party Sale") all or a portion of such Stockholder's SFX Shares (the
"Sale Shares") at any time up to the seventh anniversary of the Effective Date
and such Third Party Sale is not then prohibited by Section 6.6 hereof or any
applicable laws, including without limitation any securities laws, then prior
to the date of the proposed Third Party Sale, the Selling Stockholder shall (i)
deliver written notice (an "Offering Notice") of his intent to consummate the
sale, which notice shall set forth the number of SFX Shares to be sold and the
price per Share at which such Shares are to be sold (the "Sale Price") and
shall irrevocably offer to sell to SFX such shares at the Sale Price. The date
of delivery of such Offering Notice shall hereby be defined as (the
"Determination Date"). SFX may, within forty-eight (48) hours after the
Determination Date, elect, by written notice to the Selling Stockholder (a
"Purchase Notice"), to purchase all of the Sale Shares for the Sale Price.
Within three (3) days after the receipt of the Purchase Notice, the Selling
Stockholder shall sell to SFX and SFX shall purchase from the Selling
Stockholder all of the Sale Shares for the Sale Price. If SFX shall fail to
deliver a Purchase Notice within said forty-eight hour period, then the selling
Stockholder may sell the Sale Shares; provided, however, if neither the Third
Party Sale nor the sale to SFX is consummated within thirty (30) days of the
Determination Date for "market" Third Party Sale transactions or sixty (60)
days of the Determination Date for "private" Third Party Sale transactions,
then neither sale shall be consummated. Any subsequent sales of SFX shares
(other than the Sale Shares) by the Selling Stockholder, shall continue to be
subject to the provisions of this Section 11.1.

         SECTION 12 INDEMNIFICATION.

         12.1 The Stockholders' Indemnitees. The Stockholders shall, on a
Several Basis, but not jointly, indemnify, defend by counsel reasonably
acceptable to SFX, and hold

                                     - 59 -
<PAGE>

harmless SFX, its officers, directors, affiliates, employees, agents,
successors and permitted assigns (the "SFX Indemnitees") from and against all
demands, claims, actions, and causes of action ("Claims") and assessments,
losses, costs, damages, liabilities, interest, penalties, court costs, and
reasonable accounting, consulting, engineering and attorneys' fees ("Losses")
asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by any of the SFX Indemnitees,
directly or indirectly caused by a material breach by the Companies, the
Subsidiaries or the Stockholders of any of their representations, warranties
and/or covenants contained herein; provided that the Stockholders shall only be
required to indemnify SFX where the aggregate Losses is in an amount in excess
of $100,000 (the "Threshold Amount"), in which event the Stockholders shall be
liable for all such claims including the Threshold Amount. Notwithstanding
anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, no Stockholder shall be
liable for any claim made under this Agreement for any default, breach or
misrepresentation, including provisions of this Section 12.1 and Section 6.13,
for any amounts in excess of thirty-three and one-third (33 1/3%) (the "Maximum
Amount") of the Adjusted Closing Value; provided, however, in no event shall
the Maximum Amount be reduced by greater than 10% for any amounts required to
be paid by the Stockholders pursuant to Section 6.13 hereof. No claim for
indemnification pursuant to this Section 12.1 may be made subsequent to the
date one (1) year after the Effective Date unless such claim is based upon a
fraudulent misrepresentation made herein. Solely for the purposes of this
Section 12.1, in calculating the amount of losses arising from any
mis-representation, breach of warranty, or covenant made by the Companies,
their Subsidiaries or the Stockholders in this Agreement, the applicable
provisions of this Agreement shall be read and interpreted as if the
qualification stated therein with respect to Materiality or Material Adverse
Effect was not contained therein.

         12.2 SFX's Indemnitees. SFX shall indemnify, defend by counsel
reasonable acceptable to the Companies, and hold harmless the Companies, their
shareholders employees, agents, successors and permitted assigns and the
Stockholders (the "Companies Indemnitees") from and against all Claims and
Losses asserted against, imposed upon or incurred by any of the Companies
Indemnitees, directly or indirectly, resulting from or arising out of (i) the
ownership or operation of the Companies or their Subsidiaries by SFX from and
after the Effective Date, (ii) the failure of SFX to pay, perform or discharge
any of SFX's obligations, including any

                                     - 60 -
<PAGE>

obligations expressly assumed by SFX pursuant to this Agreement, or (iii) the
breach by SFX of any of its representations and warranties contained herein.

         12.3 Procedures.

              12.3.1 Promptly after the receipt by any party (the "Indemnified
Party") of notice of (A) any claim or (B) the commencement of any action,
proceeding or litigation (collectively, "Litigation") which may entitle such
party to indemnification under this Section, such party shall give the other
party (the "Indemnifying Party") written notice of such claim or the
commencement of such claim or Litigation and shall permit the Indemnifying
Party to assume the defense of any such Litigation. The failure to give the
Indemnifying Party timely notice under this clause shall not preclude the
Indemnified Party from seeking indemnification from the Indemnifying Party
unless such failure has materially prejudiced the Indemnifying Party's ability
to defend such claim or Litigation.

              12.3.2 If the Indemnifying Party assumes the defense of any such
claim or Litigation with counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified
Party, the obligations of the Indemnifying Party as to such claim or Litigation
shall be limited to taking all steps necessary in the defense or settlement of
such claim or Litigation and to holding the Indemnified Party harmless from and
against any losses, damages and liabilities caused by or arising out of any
settlement approved by the Indemnifying Party or any judgment in connection
with such claim or Litigation; however, the Indemnified Party may participate,
at its or his expense, in the defense of such claim or Litigation provided that
the Indemnifying Party shall direct and control the defense of such claim or
Litigation. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate and make available all books
and records reasonably necessary and useful in connection with the defense. The
Indemnifying Party shall not, in the defense of such claim or Litigation,
consent to entry of any judgment, except with the written consent of the
Indemnified Party, or enter into any settlement, except with the written
consent of the Indemnified Party, which does not include as an unconditional
term thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the Indemnified
Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or Litigation.

                                     - 61 -
<PAGE>

              12.3.3 If the Indemnifying Party shall not assume the defense of
any such claim or Litigation, the Indemnified Party may, but shall have no
obligation to, defend against such claim or Litigation in such manner as it may
deem appropriate. The Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the
Indemnified Party for the amount of all reasonable expenses, legal or
otherwise, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense
against or settlement of such claim or Litigation. If no settlement of the
claim or Litigation is made, the Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse
the Indemnified Party for the amount of any judgment rendered with respect to
such claim or in such Litigation and of all reasonable expenses, legal or
otherwise, incurred by the Indemnified Party in the defense against such claim
or Litigation.

              12.3.4 Regardless of whether the Indemnifying Party shall have
assumed the defense of any such claim or Litigation, the Indemnified Party
shall not admit any liability with respect to, or settle, compromise or
discharge, such claim or Litigation without the Indemnifying Party's prior
written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).

         SECTION 13 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

         13.1 Specific Performance. The Companies recognize that, in the event
they refuse to perform the provisions of this Agreement, monetary damages alone
will not be adequate. SFX shall, therefore, be entitled in such event, in
addition to bringing suit at law or equity for money or other damages, to
obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. In any action to
enforce the provisions of this Agreement, the Companies and the Stockholders
shall waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law or equity and
agree that SFX shall have the right to obtain specific performance of the terms
of this Agreement without being required to prove actual damages, post bond or
furnish other security.

         13.2 Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may be amended by the
parties hereto, by action taken by their respective Boards of Directors or duly

the stockholders of the

                                     - 62 -

Company, but, after any such approval, no amendment shall be made which reduces
the amount to be received by holders of shares of Stock of the Companies or
changes the medium of payment therefor or which in any way materially adversely
affects the rights of such stockholders without the further approval of the
stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in
writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto.

         13.3 Waiver. Any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement which
may be lawfully waived may be waived in writing at any time by the party which
is entitled to the benefits thereof. Any waiver of any of the provisions of
this Agreement by any party hereto shall be binding only if set forth in an
instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party. No failure to enforce any
provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of
such provision and no waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall
be deemed to or shall constitute a waiver of any other provision hereof
(whether or not similar) nor shall such waiver constitute a continuing waiver.

         13.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. The respective
representations and warranties of the Companies and SFX and the SFX Subs
contained herein or in any certificates or other documents delivered prior to
or at the Effective Date shall expire at, and be terminated and extinguished on
the first anniversary of the Effective Date except for (i) the representations
and warranties contained in Section 2.11(vi) and 2.12 (other than the
representation and warranty that the Personal Property includes all such
properties used and necessary to conduct in all material respects the business
and operations of the Companies and their Subsidiaries as presently conducted)
which shall not survive the Effective Date and the representations and
warranties contained in Sections 2.11 (x), (xi), (xvi), (xxi) and 2.17 and or
(xxii which shall survive the Effective Date only to the extent provided in
Section 6.13, and thereafter neither the Companies nor SFX or the SFX Subs, nor
any officer, director or principal thereof, shall be under any liability
whatsoever with respect to any such representation or warranty. This Section
13.4 shall have no effect upon any other obligation of the parties hereto,
whether to be performed before or after the Effective Date. To the extent that
a claim is made alleging a breach of a representation and/or warranty by the
Companies and/or its Subsidiaries

                                     - 63 -
<PAGE>

after the Effective Date but prior to the first anniversary of the Effective
Date which relates to an alleged failure of the Companies and/or its
Subsidiaries to disclose a material obligation, then, the liability of the
Companies and/or Subsidiaries on account of such failure shall be limited
(subject to the limitations as to the Maximum Amount) to a recoupment of the
shares of SFX distributed hereunder on a Several Basis to the extent of the
Adjusted Closing Value, provided, however, that there shall only be such a
recovery where the aggregate of all claims for all such omissions is in an
amount in excess of the Threshold Amount in which event the Companies and the
Subsidiaries shall then be liable for all such claims including the Threshold
Amount.

         13.5 Expenses. Each party agrees that all fees and expenses (including
all fees of counsel) incurred by it in connection with this Agreement shall be
borne by it, except that any and all applicable real estate transfer tax or

or prior to the Effective Date.

annexed hereto shall, for the purposes of all representations and warranties
made herein, be deemed included in all other Disclosure Schedules attached
hereto.
