or Subsidiary), and this Agreement is executed pursuant to, and is intended to
carry out the purposes of, the Plan in connection with the Corporation's grant
of an option to Optionee.

      C.    This Agreement amends and restates the Stock Option Agreement

agreement in its entirety.

      D.    All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning
assigned to them in the attached Appendix.

            NOW, THEREFORE, it is hereby agreed as follows:

            1.   GRANT OF OPTION. The Corporation hereby grants to Optionee, as
of the Grant Date, an option to purchase up to the number of Option Shares
specified in the Grant Notice. The Option Shares shall be purchasable from time
to time during the option term specified in Paragraph 2 at the Exercise Price.

            2.   OPTION TERM. This option shall have a term of ten (10) years
measured from the Grant Date and shall accordingly expire at the close of
business on the Expiration Date, unless sooner terminated in accordance with
Paragraph 5 or 6.

            3.   LIMITED TRANSFERABILITY. During Optionee's lifetime, this
option shall be exercisable only by Optionee and shall not be assignable or
transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution
following Optionee's death.

            4.   DATES OF EXERCISE. This option shall become exercisable for the
Option Shares in one or more installments as specified in the Grant Notice. As
the option becomes exercisable for such installments, those installments shall

installments until the Expiration Date or sooner termination of the option term
under Paragraph 5 or 6.


                                       1



            5.   CESSATION OF SERVICE. The option term specified in Paragraph 2
shall terminate (and this option shall cease to be outstanding) prior to the
Expiration Date should any of the following provisions become applicable:

                 (a)   Should Optionee cease to remain in Service for any
reason (other than death or Disability) while this option is outstanding, then
Optionee shall have a period of ninety (90) days (commencing with the date of
such cessation of Service) during which to exercise this option, but in no event
shall this option be exercisable at any time after the Expiration Date.

                 (b)   Should Optionee die while this option is outstanding,
then the personal representative of Optionee's estate or the person or persons
to whom the option is transferred pursuant to Optionee's will or in accordance
with the laws of inheritance shall have the right to exercise this option. Such
right shall lapse, and this option shall cease to be outstanding, upon the
earlier of (i) the expiration of the twelve (12) month period measured from the
date of Optionee's death or (ii) the Expiration Date.

                 (c)   Should Optionee cease Service by reason of Disability
while this option is outstanding, then Optionee shall have a period of twelve
(12) months (commencing with the date of such cessation of Service) during which

time after the Expiration Date.

                 (d)   During the limited period of post-Service
exercisability, this option may not be exercised in the aggregate for more than
the number of Option Shares for which this Option is, at the time of Optionee's
cessation of Service, exercisable pursuant to the exercise schedule specified in
the Grant Notice or the special acceleration provisions of Paragraph 6. Upon the
expiration of such limited exercise period or (if earlier) upon the Expiration
Date, this option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding for any vested
Option Shares for which the option has not been exercised. To the extent
Optionee is not vested in the Option Shares at the time of Optionee's cessation
of Service, this option shall immediately terminate and cease to be outstanding
with respect to those shares.

            6.   ACCELERATION OF OPTION.

                 (a)   In the event that the Optionee is terminated for any
reason other than for intentional misconduct that materially and adversely
affects the Company, the exercisability of this option, to the extent this
option is not otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate in
full so that this option shall, immediately following such termination, become
fully exercisable for all the Option Shares and may be exercised for any or all
of those shares as fully-vested shares of Common Stock.

                 (b)   In the event of any Corporate Transaction or a Change in
Control, the exercisability of this option, to the extent this option is not
otherwise fully exercisable, shall automatically accelerate in full so that this
option shall, immediately prior to the effective date of the Corporate
Transaction or upon the Change in Control, become fully exercisable for all the


                                       2



Option Shares and may be exercised for any or all of those Option Shares as
fully-vested shares of Common Stock.

                 (c)   Immediately following the Corporate Transaction, this
option shall terminate and cease to be outstanding. Without limiting the
generality of Section 5, a Change in Control that is not also a Corporate
Transaction shall not effect the term of this option.

                 (d)   This Agreement shall not in any way affect the right of
the Corporation to adjust, reclassify, reorganize or otherwise change its
capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, liquidate or
sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

            7.   ADJUSTMENT IN OPTION SHARES. Should any change be made to the
Common Stock by reason of any stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization,
combination of shares, exchange of shares or other change affecting the
outstanding Common Stock as a class without the Corporation's receipt of
consideration, appropriate adjustments shall be made to (i) the total number
and/or class of securities subject to this option and (ii) the Exercise Price in
order to reflect such change and thereby preclude a dilution or enlargement of
benefits hereunder.

            8.   SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. The holder of this option shall not have
any shareholder rights with respect to the Option Shares until such person shall
have exercised the option, paid the Exercise Price and become a holder of record
of the purchased shares.

            9.   MANNER OF EXERCISING OPTION.

                 (a)   In order to exercise this option with respect to all or
any part of the Option Shares for which this option is at the time exercisable,
Optionee (or any other person or persons exercising the option) must take the
following actions:

                       (i)   Execute and deliver to the Corporation a Purchase
      Agreement for the Option Shares for which the option is exercised.

      purchased shares in one or more of the following forms:

            Corporation; or

            Corporation, but only to the extent authorized by the Plan
            Administrator in accordance with Paragraph 13.

                 Should the Common Stock be registered under Section 12(g) of

            Price may also be paid as follows:

            (or any other person or persons exercising the option) for the
            requisite period necessary to avoid a charge to the Corporation's
            earnings for financial reporting purposes and valued at Fair Market
            Value on the Exercise Date; or

                             (D)   through a special sale and remittance
            procedure pursuant to which Optionee (or any other person or persons
            exercising the option) shall concurrently provide irrevocable
            written instructions (a) to a Corporation-designated brokerage firm
            to effect the immediate sale of the purchased shares and remit to
            the Corporation, out of the sale proceeds available on the
            settlement date, sufficient funds to cover the aggregate Exercise
            Price payable for the purchased shares plus all applicable Federal,
            state and local income and employment taxes required to be withheld
            by the Corporation by reason of such exercise and (b) to the
            Corporation to deliver the certificates for the purchased shares
            directly to such brokerage firm in order to complete the sale.

                 Except to the extent the sale and remittance procedure is
            utilized in connection with the option exercise, payment of the
            Exercise Price must accompany the Purchase Agreement delivered to
            the Corporation in connection with the option exercise.

                       (iii) Furnish to the Corporation appropriate

      written representations as may be requested by the Corporation in order
      for it to comply with the applicable requirements of Federal and state
      securities laws.

                       (v)   Make appropriate arrangements with the Corporation
      (or Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining Optionee) for the
      satisfaction of all Federal, state and local income and employment tax
      withholding requirements applicable to the option exercise.

                 (b)   As soon as practical after the Exercise Date, the
Corporation shall issue to or on behalf of Optionee (or any other person or
persons exercising this option) a certificate for the purchased Option Shares,

                 (c)   In no event may this option be exercised for any

Option Shares upon such exercise shall be subject to compliance by the

thereto and with all applicable regulations of any stock exchange (or the Nasdaq
National Market, if applicable) on which the Common Stock may be listed for
trading at the time of such exercise and issuance.

                 (b)   The inability of the Corporation to obtain approval from
any regulatory body having authority deemed by the Corporation to be necessary
to the lawful issuance and sale of any Common Stock pursuant to this option
shall relieve the Corporation of any liability with respect to the non-issuance
or sale of the Common Stock as to which such approval shall not have been

such approvals.

            11.  SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. Except to the extent otherwise

discretion and without any obligation to do so, permit Optionee to pay the
Exercise Price for the purchased Option Shares by delivering a full-recourse,
interest-bearing promissory note secured by those Option Shares. The payment
schedule in effect for any such promissory note shall be established by the Plan
Administrator in its sole discretion.

            14.  CONSTRUCTION. This Agreement and the option evidenced hereby
are made and granted pursuant to the Plan and are in all respects limited by and
subject to the terms of the Plan. All decisions of the Plan Administrator with
respect to any question or issue arising under the Plan or this Agreement shall
be conclusive and binding on all persons having an interest in this option.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the terms of acceleration of this option shall be
governed by the terms of this Agreement and to the extent that there is any
inconsistency between the Plan and this Agreement with respect to acceleration,
this Agreement shall govern.

            15.  GOVERNING LAW. The interpretation, performance and enforcement
of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without
resort to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.

                                    EXHIBIT B

                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT












                                 CTC MEDIA, INC.
                            STOCK PURCHASE AGREEMENT

            AGREEMENT made this ______ day of __________________ 20 ________ ,
by and between CTC Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Nilesh Lakhani,
Optionee under the Corporation's 1997 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan.

            All capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning
assigned to them in this Agreement or in the attached Appendix.

      A.    EXERCISE OF OPTION

            1.   EXERCISE. Optionee hereby purchases shares of Common Stock (the
"Purchased Shares") pursuant to that certain option (the "Option") granted
Optionee on ____________________, 20__ (the "Grant Date") to purchase up to
_______________ shares of Common Stock (the "Option Shares") under the Plan at
the exercise price of $___________ per share (the "Exercise Price").

            2.   PAYMENT. Concurrently with the delivery of this Agreement to
the Corporation, Optionee shall pay the Exercise Price for the Purchased Shares
in accordance with the provisions of the Option Agreement and shall deliver
whatever additional documents may be required by the Option Agreement as a
condition for exercise.

            3.   SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS. Until such time as the Corporation
exercises the First Refusal Right, Optionee (or any successor in interest) shall
have all the rights of a shareholder (including voting, dividend and liquidation
rights) with respect to the Purchased Shares, subject, however, to the transfer
restrictions of Articles B and C.

      B.    SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE

            1.   RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The Purchased Shares have not been
registered under the 1933 Act and are being issued to Optionee in reliance upon
the exemption from such registration provided by SEC Rule 701 for stock
issuances under compensatory benefit plans such as the Plan. Optionee hereby
confirms that Optionee has been informed that the Purchased Shares are
restricted securities under the 1933 Act and may not be resold or transferred
unless the Purchased Shares are first registered under the Federal securities
laws or unless an exemption from such registration is available. Accordingly,
Optionee hereby acknowledges that Optionee is prepared to hold the Purchased
Shares for an indefinite period and that Optionee is aware that SEC Rule 144
issued under the 1933 Act which exempts certain resales of unrestricted
securities is not presently available to exempt the resale of the Purchased
Shares from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act.


                                       1



            2.   RESTRICTIONS ON DISPOSITION OF PURCHASED SHARES. Optionee shall
make no disposition of the Purchased Shares (other than a Permitted Transfer)
unless and until there is compliance with all of the following requirements:

                 (i)   Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with a
      written summary of the terms and conditions of the proposed disposition.

                 (ii)  Optionee shall have complied with all requirements of
      this Agreement applicable to the disposition of the Purchased Shares.

                 (iii) Optionee shall have provided the Corporation with
      written assurances, in form and substance satisfactory to the Corporation,
      that (a) the proposed disposition does not require registration of the
      Purchased Shares under the 1933 Act or (b) all appropriate action
      necessary for compliance with the registration requirements of the 1933
      Act or any exemption from registration available under the 1933 Act
      (including Rule 144) has been taken.

            The Corporation shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books
any Purchased Shares which have been sold or transferred in violation of the
provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as the owner of the Purchased
Shares, or otherwise to accord voting, dividend or liquidation rights to, any
transferee to whom the Purchased Shares have been transferred in contravention
of this Agreement.

            3.   RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. The stock certificates for the Purchased
Shares shall be endorsed with one or more of the following restrictive legends:

                 "The shares represented by this certificate have not been
      registered under the Securities Act of 1933. The shares may not be sold or
      offered for sale in the absence of (a) an effective registration statement
      for the shares under such Act, (b) a "no action" letter of the Securities
      and Exchange Commission with respect to such sale or offer or (c)
      satisfactory assurances to the Corporation that registration under such
      Act is not required with respect to such sale or offer."

                 "The shares represented by this certificate are subject to
      certain rights of first refusal granted to the Corporation and accordingly
      may not be sold, assigned, transferred, encumbered, or in any manner
      disposed of except in conformity with the terms of a written agreement
      dated , 20__ between the Corporation and the registered holder of the
      shares (or the predecessor in interest to the shares). A copy of such
      agreement is maintained at the Corporation's principal corporate offices."


                                       2



      C.    TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS

            1.   RESTRICTION ON TRANSFER. Except for any Permitted Transfer,
Optionee shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any of the
Purchased Shares in contravention of the First Refusal Right or the Market
Stand-Off.

            2.   TRANSFEREE OBLIGATIONS. Each person (other than the
Corporation) to whom the Purchased Shares are transferred by means of a
Permitted Transfer must, as a condition precedent to the validity of such
transfer, acknowledge in writing to the Corporation that such person is bound by
the provisions of this Agreement and that the transferred shares are subject to
(i) the Repurchase Right and (ii) the Market Stand-Off, to the same extent such
shares would be so subject if retained by Optionee.

            3.   MARKET STAND-OFF.

                 (a)   In connection with any underwritten public offering by
the Corporation of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration
statement filed under the 1933 Act, including the Corporation's initial public
offering, Owner shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate,
pledge, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose or transfer
for value or otherwise agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with
respect to, any Purchased Shares without the prior written consent of the
Corporation or its underwriters. Such restriction (the "Market Stand-Off") shall
be in effect for such period of time from and after the effective date of the
final prospectus for the offering as may be requested by the Corporation or such
underwriters. In no event, however, shall such period exceed one hundred eighty
(180) days and the Market Stand-Off shall in all events terminate two (2) years
after the effective date of the Corporation's initial public offering.

                 (b)   Owner shall be subject to the Market Stand-Off provided
and only if the officers and directors of the Corporation are also subject to
similar restrictions.

                 (c)   Any new, substituted or additional securities which are
by reason of any Recapitalization or Reorganization distributed with respect to
the Purchased Shares shall be immediately subject to the Market Stand-Off, to
the same extent the Purchased Shares are at such time covered by such
provisions.

                 (d)   In order to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the
Corporation may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Purchased
Shares until the end of the applicable stand-off period.

      D.    RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL

            1.   GRANT. The Corporation is hereby granted the right of first
refusal (the "First Refusal Right"), exercisable in connection with any proposed
transfer of the Purchased Shares. For purposes of this Article D, the term
"transfer" shall include any sale, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or other
disposition of the Purchased Shares intended to be made by Owner, but shall not
include any Permitted Transfer.


                                       3



            2.   NOTICE OF INTENDED DISPOSITION. In the event any Owner of
Purchased Shares desires to accept a bona fide third-party offer for the
transfer of any or all of such shares (the Purchased Shares subject to such
offer to be hereinafter referred to as the "Target Shares"), Owner shall
promptly (i) deliver to the Corporation written notice (the "Disposition
Notice") of the terms of the offer, including the purchase price and the
identity of the third-party offeror, and (ii) provide satisfactory proof that
the disposition of the Target Shares to such third-party offeror would not be in
contravention of the provisions set forth in Articles B and C.

            3.   EXERCISE OF THE FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT. The Corporation shall, for
a period of twenty-five (25) days following receipt of the Disposition Notice,
have the right to repurchase any or all of the Target Shares subject to the
Disposition Notice upon the same terms as those specified therein or upon such
other terms (not materially different from those specified in the Disposition
Notice) to which Owner consents. Such right shall be exercisable by delivery of
written notice (the "Exercise Notice") to Owner prior to the expiration of the
twenty-five (25)-day exercise period. If such right is exercised with respect to
all the Target Shares, then the Corporation shall effect the repurchase of such
shares, including payment of the purchase price, not more than five (5) business
days after delivery of the Exercise Notice; and at such time the certificates
representing the Target Shares shall be delivered to the Corporation.

            Should the purchase price specified in the Disposition Notice be
payable in property other than cash or evidences of indebtedness, the
Corporation shall have the right to pay the purchase price in the form of cash
equal in amount to the value of such property. If Owner and the Corporation
cannot agree on such cash value within ten (10) days after the Corporation's
receipt of the Disposition Notice, the valuation shall be made by an appraiser
of recognized standing selected by Owner and the Corporation or, if they cannot
agree on an appraiser within twenty (20) days after the Corporation's receipt of
the Disposition Notice, each shall select an appraiser of recognized standing
and the two (2) appraisers shall designate a third appraiser of recognized
standing, whose appraisal shall be determinative of such value. The cost of such
appraisal shall be shared equally by Owner and the Corporation. The closing
shall then be held on the later of (i) the fifth (5th) business day following
delivery of the Exercise Notice or (ii) the fifth (5th) business day after such
valuation shall have been made.

            4.   NON-EXERCISE OF THE FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT. In the event the
Exercise Notice is not given to Owner prior to the expiration of the twenty-five
(25)-day exercise period, Owner shall have a period of thirty (30) days
thereafter in which to sell or otherwise dispose of the Target Shares to the
third-party offeror identified in the Disposition Notice upon terms (including
the purchase price) no more favorable to such third-party offeror than those
specified in the Disposition Notice; provided, however, that any such sale or
disposition must not be effected in contravention of the provisions of Articles
B and C. The third-party offeror shall acquire the Target Shares free and clear
of the First Refusal Right, but the acquired shares shall remain subject to the
provisions of Article B and Paragraph C.3. In the event Owner does not effect
such sale or disposition of the Target Shares within the specified thirty
(30)-day period, the First Refusal Right shall continue to be applicable to any
subsequent disposition of the Target Shares by Owner until such right lapses.


                                       4



            5.   PARTIAL EXERCISE OF THE FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT. In the event the
Corporation makes a timely exercise of the First Refusal Right with respect to a
portion, but not all, of the Target Shares specified in the Disposition Notice,
Owner shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to the Corporation
delivered within five (5) business days after Owner's receipt of the Exercise
Notice, to effect the sale of the Target Shares pursuant to either of the
following alternatives:

                 (i)   sale or other disposition of all the Target Shares to
      the third-party offeror identified in the Disposition Notice, but in full
      compliance with the requirements of Paragraph D.4, as if the Corporation
      did not exercise the First Refusal Right; or

                 (ii)  sale to the Corporation of the portion of the Target
      Shares which the Corporation has elected to purchase, such sale to be
      effected in substantial conformity with the provisions of Paragraph D.3.
      The First Refusal Right shall continue to be applicable to any subsequent
      disposition of the remaining Target Shares until such right lapses.

            Owner's failure to deliver timely notification to the Corporation
shall be deemed to be an election by Owner to sell the Target Shares pursuant to
alternative (i) above.

            6.   RECAPITALIZATION/REORGANIZATION.

                 (a)   Any new, substituted or additional securities or other
property which is by reason of any Recapitalization distributed with respect to
the Purchased Shares shall be immediately subject to the First Refusal Right,
but only to the extent the Purchased Shares are at the time covered by such
right.

                 (b)   In the event of a Reorganization, the First Refusal
Right shall remain in full force and effect and shall apply to the new capital
stock or other property received in exchange for the Purchased Shares in
consummation of the Reorganization, but only to the extent the Purchased Shares
are at the time covered by such right.

            7.   LAPSE. The First Refusal Right shall lapse upon the earliest to
occur of (i) the first date on which shares of the Common Stock are held of
record by more than five hundred (500) persons, (ii) a determination is made by
the Board that a public market exists for the outstanding shares of Common Stock
or (iii) a firm commitment underwritten public offering, pursuant to an
effective registration statement under the 1933 Act, covering the offer and sale
of the Common Stock in the aggregate amount of at least ten million dollars
($10,000,000). However, the Market Stand-Off shall continue to remain in full
force and effect following the lapse of the First Refusal Right.


                                       5



      E.    GENERAL PROVISIONS

            1.   ASSIGNMENT. The Corporation may assign the First Refusal Right
to any person or entity selected by the Board, including (without limitation)
one or more shareholders of the Corporation.

            2.   NO EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE CONTRACT. Nothing in this Agreement or
in the Plan shall confer upon Optionee any right to continue in Service for any
period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way
the rights of the Corporation (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or
retaining Optionee) or of Optionee, which rights are hereby expressly reserved
by each, to terminate Optionee's Service at any time for any reason, with or
without cause.

            3.   NOTICES. Any notice required to be given under this Agreement
shall be in writing and shall be deemed effective upon personal delivery or upon
deposit in the mail, registered or certified, postage prepaid and properly
addressed to the party entitled to such notice at the address indicated below
such party's signature line on this Agreement or at such other address as such
party may designate by ten (10) days advance written notice under this paragraph
to all other parties to this Agreement.

            4.   NO WAIVER. The failure of the Corporation in any instance to
exercise the First Refusal Right shall not constitute a waiver of any other
repurchase rights and/or rights of first refusal that may subsequently arise
under the provisions of this Agreement or any other agreement between the
Corporation and Optionee. No waiver of any breach or condition of this Agreement
shall be deemed to be a waiver of any other or subsequent breach or condition,
whether of like or different nature.

            5.   CANCELLATION OF SHARES. If the Corporation shall make
available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this
Agreement, the consideration for the Purchased Shares to be repurchased in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then from and after such time,
the person from whom such shares are to be repurchased shall no longer have any
rights as a holder of such shares (other than the right to receive payment of
such consideration in accordance with this Agreement). Such shares shall be
deemed purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, and the
Corporation shall be deemed the owner and holder of such shares, whether or not
the certificates therefor have been delivered as required by this Agreement.

      F.    MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

            1.   OPTIONEE UNDERTAKING. Optionee hereby agrees to take whatever
additional action and execute whatever additional documents the Corporation may
deem necessary or advisable in order to carry out or effect one or more of the
obligations or restrictions imposed on either Optionee or the Purchased Shares
pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.


                                       6

hereof. This Agreement is made pursuant to the provisions of the Plan and shall

to that State's conflict-of-laws rules.

            4.   COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts,
each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which together shall
constitute one and the same instrument.

            5.   SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The provisions of this Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Corporation and its successors
and assigns and upon Optionee, Optionee's permitted assigns and the legal
representatives, heirs and legatees of Optionee's estate, whether or not any
such person shall have become a party to this Agreement and have agreed in
