<PAGE>   15
                 (a)      The balance of the Purchase Price after the
application of the Escrow Deposit thereto by wire transfer in immediately
available funds pursuant to wire instructions that Seller shall deliver to
Purchaser prior to Closing.

                 (b)      The certificates and other documents required to be
delivered pursuant to Section 7.01.

                 (c)      An opinion of Purchaser's counsel substantially in
the form of Exhibit C subject to customary qualifications.

All deliveries under Sections 2.06 and 2.07 shall occur simultaneously.

                 Section 2.08.    Prorations and Adjustments.  The operation of
the Station and the income and all expenses, including without limitation
assumed liabilities and prepaid expenses, attributable thereto through 11:59
p.m.  on the Closing Date (the "Adjustment Time") shall be for the account of
Seller and thereafter for the account of Purchaser.  Expenses for goods or
services received both before and after the Adjustment Time, taxes and
assessments, power and utilities charges, and rents and similar prepaid and
deferred items shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the
Adjustment Time (the "Closing Date Adjustments").  All special assessments and
similar charges or liens imposed against the Assets in respect of any period of
time up to the Adjustment Time, whether then due or are payable thereafter (in
installments or otherwise), shall be the responsibility of Seller, and amounts
payable with respect to such special assessments, charges or liens in respect
of any period of time after the Adjustment Time shall be the responsibility of
Purchaser, and such charges shall be adjusted as required hereunder.  Five (5)
days prior to the Closing Date Seller shall deliver a statement of all known
proratable items and the net amount due one party to the other as a result
thereof (which statement shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for
those amounts).  At the Closing, Purchaser shall pay to Seller, or Seller shall
pay to Purchaser, as the case may be, the net amount due as a result of the
apportionments (excluding any item that is in dispute).  Within thirty (30)
days after the Closing (the "Payment Date"), Purchaser shall deliver to Seller
a statement of any additional proratable items, together with the
apportionments for any such additional proratable items and Purchaser shall pay
to Seller, or Seller shall pay to Purchaser, as the case may be, any amount due
as a result of the adjustment (or, if there is any dispute, the undisputed
amount).  If Seller disputes Purchaser's determinations, or if at any time
after delivery of Purchaser's statement of determinations, either party
determines that any item included in the apportionments is inaccurate, or that
an additional item should be included in the apportionments, the party shall
confer with regard to the matter and an appropriate adjustment and payment
shall be made as agreed upon by the parties.  If the parties are unable to
resolve the matter, the matter shall be resolved by Arthur Andersen LLP, whose
decision on the matter shall be rendered in writing within thirty (30) days
following submission of the dispute to them and whose fees and expenses shall
be borne equally by the parties.  Such decision shall be binding upon the
parties.  All amounts due pursuant to this subsection that are not paid by the
Payment Date shall bear interest from the Payment Date until paid at a rate per
annum equal to generally prevailing prime interest rate (as reported by The
Wall Street Journal) plus five percent (5%).  Notwithstanding the





                                       10
<PAGE>   16
foregoing, there shall be no proration for liabilities for air time or rights
to receive goods or services or otherwise under the Trade Agreements.

              REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND COVENANTS OF SELLER

                 Seller represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows:

Seller is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the Laws of the State of Delaware and has all necessary
corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement, to carry out its
obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.
Should the consummation of the Viacom Transaction occur prior to the Closing

the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby have been
duly authorized by all requisite corporate action on the part of Seller.  This
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Seller and (assuming due
authorization, execution and delivery by Purchaser) this Agreement constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable against Seller
in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforceability, to the effect of
any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent
conveyance or similar Laws affecting creditors' rights generally and to the
effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law).

                 Section 3.02.    No Conflict.  Assuming all consents,
approvals, authorizations and other actions described in Section 3.03 have been
obtained and all filings and notifications listed in Section 3.03 of the
Disclosure Schedule have been made, and except as may result from any facts or
circumstances relating solely to Purchaser or as described in Section 3.02 of
the Disclosure Schedule, the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement by Seller do not and will not (a) violate or conflict with the
Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws of Seller, (b) conflict with or violate
any Law or Governmental Order applicable to Seller, except as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or prohibit
Seller from consummating the purchase and sale of the Assets as contemplated
hereby or (c) result in any breach of, or constitute a default (or event which
with the giving of notice or lapse of time, or both, would become a default)
under, or give to any Person any rights of termination, amendment, acceleration
or cancellation of, or result in the creation of any Lien on any of the Assets
pursuant to any note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease,
license, permit, franchise or other instrument to which Seller or by which, to
the knowledge of Seller, the Assets are bound or affected, except as would not,
individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect or prohibit
Seller from consummating the purchase and sale of the Assets as contemplated
hereby.

                 Section 3.03.    Consents and Approvals.  The execution and
delivery of this Agreement by Seller do not, and the performance of this
Agreement by Seller will not, require any consent, approval, authorization or
other action by, or filing with or notification to, any





                                       11
<PAGE>   17
Governmental Authority or other Person except (a) as described in Section 3.03
of the Disclosure Schedule, (b) the notification requirements of the HSR Act,
(c) for consents required from the FCC prior to the Closing and those notices
to be filed with the FCC after the Closing, (d) where failure to obtain such
consent, approval, authorization or action, or to make such filing or
notification, would not prohibit Seller from consummating the purchase and sale
of the Assets as contemplated hereby, (e) as would not have a Material Adverse
Effect and (f) as may be necessary as a result of any facts or circumstances
relating solely to Purchaser or its Affiliates.

                 Section 3.04.    Absence of Certain Changes or Events.  (a)
Since December 31, 1996, except as disclosed in Section 3.04 of the Disclosure
Schedule, to Seller's knowledge, the business of the Station has been conducted
in the ordinary course and consistent with past practice.

                 (b)      Since December 31, 1996 and, except as set forth in
Section 3.04 of the Disclosure Schedule or as contemplated by this Agreement or
in the ordinary course of business, to Seller's knowledge, there has not been:

                          (i)     a Material Adverse Effect;

                          (ii)    the creation of any material Lien on the
         Assets, other than Permitted Liens;

                          (iii)   any establishment or material increase in any
         bonus, insurance, severance, deferred compensation, pension,
         retirement, profit sharing, or other employee benefit plans, or other
         material increase in the compensation payable or to become payable to
         any officer or key employee of the Station by Seller or Viacom,
         except, in any case described above, as may be required by Law,
         existing contracts or applicable collective bargaining agreements;

                          (iv)    any employment or severance agreement
         providing for annual compensation or severance payments in excess of
         $100,000 entered into by Seller or Viacom with any of the Station
         Employees;

                          (v)     any sale, assignment, transfer, lease or
         other disposition or agreement by Seller or Viacom to sell, assign,
         transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of any of the Assets having an
         aggregate replacement value exceeding $100,000;

                 Section 3.05.    Absence of Litigation.  Except as set forth
in Section 3.05 of the Disclosure Schedule, to Seller's knowledge, there are no
Actions pending, or threatened in writing, against Seller or Viacom, or to
which any of the Assets are subject, before any Governmental Authority that,
individually or in the aggregate, would have a Material Adverse Effect or would
prohibit Seller from consummating the purchase and sale of the Assets as
contemplated hereby.

                 Section 3.06.    Compliance with Laws.  Except as set forth in
Section 3.06 of the Disclosure Schedule, to the knowledge of Seller, neither
Seller nor Viacom is in material





                                       12
<PAGE>   18
violation of any Law or Governmental Order applicable to the Station or any
material Asset, or by which either the Station or any material Asset is bound.

                 Section 3.07.    Licenses and Permits.  To the best of
Seller's knowledge, Viacom holds and is in material compliance with all FCC
Licenses necessary to operate as currently operated the Station, each of which
is listed in Section 3.07 of the Disclosure Schedule.  On the Closing Date,
Seller, WDRQ, Inc. or their Affiliate will hold and be in material compliance
with the FCC Licenses.  Except as set forth in Section 3.07 of the Disclosure
Schedule, to the best of Seller's knowledge, no governmental qualifications,
registrations, filings, privileges, franchises, licenses, permits, approvals or
authorizations other than the FCC Licenses are required to operate the Station
as a radio broadcast station in substantially the same manner as the Station is
being operated as of the date hereof, other than those that the failure to hold
or obtain would not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse
effect on the results of operations or financial condition of the Station.
Except as set forth in Section 3.07 of the Disclosure Schedule, to the best of
Seller's knowledge, no application, action or proceeding is pending for the
renewal or modification of any of the FCC Licenses, and, except for actions or
proceedings affecting radio broadcast stations generally, no application,
complaint, action or proceeding is pending, or threatened in writing, that
would reasonably be expected to result in (i) the denial of an application for
renewal of any of the FCC Licenses, (ii) the revocation, modification,
nonrenewal or suspension of any of the FCC Licenses, (iii) the issuance of a
cease-and-desist order with respect to any of the FCC Licenses or (iv) the
imposition of any material administrative or judicial sanction with respect to
Seller or the Station.  To Seller's knowledge, there is no fact or circumstance
relating to Seller, or any of Seller's Affiliates or Viacom that would cause
the FCC to deny the FCC Application.

                 Section 3.08.    The Assets.  (a)   Except as set forth in
Section 3.08 of the Disclosure Schedule, to Seller's knowledge, the Assets
include all of the assets, properties and rights of every type and description,
real, personal and mixed, tangible and intangible, that are owned, leased or
licensed by Viacom and are used exclusively or held for use exclusively in the
operation of the Station as of the date hereof.  To Seller's knowledge, and
except as set forth in Section 3.08 of the Disclosure Schedule, (i) all of the
Tangible Personal Property material to the operation of the Station is in good
operating condition and repair, subject to normal wear and maintenance, except
to the extent the failure to be in such condition or repair would not result in
a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) the Assets constitute all of the assets
necessary for the continued operation of the Station in substantially the same
manner as conducted on the date of this Agreement.

                 (b)      To Seller's knowledge, Viacom holds, and at the
Closing Seller will hold, directly or through WDRQ, Inc., good title to or have
valid leasehold interests in all of the Assets (other than the Leased Real
Property as to which the provisions of Section 3.09 apply), free and clear of
any and all Liens, except (i) as disclosed in Section 3.08 of the Disclosure
Schedule, (ii) for Permitted Liens and (iii) for Liens created by or through
Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

                 Section 3.09.    Leased Real Property.  Each parcel of real
property, including those properties set forth in Section 3.09 (which lists
leased real property, the "Real Property") of





                                       13
<PAGE>   19
the Disclosure Schedule, (i) to Seller's knowledge, is held pursuant to a valid
leasehold estate by Viacom, and (ii) at the Closing, will be held pursuant to a
valid leasehold estate by Seller directly or through WDRQ, Inc., free and clear
of all Liens, except (a) as disclosed in Section 3.09, of the Disclosure
Schedule, (b) for Permitted Liens and (c) for Liens created by or through
Purchaser or any of its Affiliates.

                 Section 3.10.    Employee Benefit Matters.  (a)   Seller does
not as of the date of this Agreement maintain, contribute to, sponsor or have
any obligation under any employee benefit plans (within the meaning of Section
3(3) of ERISA) or any bonus, incentive, deferred compensation, supplemental
retirement, severance or other benefit plans, programs or arrangements
(collectively, the "Employee Plans") for the benefit of any current employee of
the Station, other than plans, programs, arrangements, contracts or agreements
for which no benefits are payable after the Closing.  To the extent that Seller
determines to maintain, contribute to, sponsor or accrue any obligation under
any such Employee Plan, Seller shall provide Purchaser with a Section 3.10 to
the Disclosure Schedule which lists all such Employee Plans and shall deliver
to Purchaser a true and complete copy of each Employee Plan and a true and
complete copy of each of the following documents, to the extent applicable,
prepared in connection with each such Employee Plan: (i) a copy of each trust
or other funding arrangement, (ii) the most recently filed IRS Form 5500 and
(iii) the most recently received IRS determination letter.

                 (b)      To Seller's knowledge, there are no collective
bargaining agreements that relate to the employees of the Station and there has
been no union activity or attempts to organize.

                 Section 3.11.    Contracts.  To the best of Seller's
knowledge, each of the Contracts that is material to the operation of the
Station is in full force and effect and is unimpaired by any breach of Viacom,
Seller or their Affiliates that would give any other party thereto the right to
terminate such contract or receive damages from Purchaser after the Closing
Date.  To the knowledge of Seller, no other party to any Contract is in
material default of its obligations under such Contract.

                 Section 3.12.    Intangible Assets.  To the best of Seller's
knowledge, other than as set forth in Section 3.12 of the Disclosure Schedule
and other than the name "Viacom," there are no material patents, patent
applications, trademarks, trade names, service marks, copyright registrations
or copyright applications licensed or used by or registered in the name of
Viacom or Seller which apply to the Station.  To the best of Seller's
knowledge, Viacom owns and at Closing Seller will own directly or through WDRQ,
Inc. all right and interest in, and right and authority to use in connection
with the conduct of the business of the Station as presently conducted, without
infringing or the rights of any party, all of the Intangible Assets.

                 Section 3.13.    Payment of Taxes.  To Seller's knowledge,
Viacom has fully paid all Taxes that have been assessed against Viacom with
respect to the Station and its operation, except for Taxes contested in good
faith by Viacom and has timely filed all Tax Returns.

                 Section 3.14.    Brokers.  Except for Star Media Group, Inc.
("Broker"), no broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any
brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission in





                                       14
<PAGE>   20
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon
arrangements made by or on behalf of Seller.  Seller is solely responsible for
the fees and expenses of Broker.

                 Section 3.15.    Environmental Compliance.  Except as set
forth in Section 3.15 of the Disclosure Schedule or as would not result in a
Material Adverse Effect, (i) to Seller's knowledge, the operation of the
Station is in compliance with all Environmental Laws, (ii) from the date of the
consummation of the Viacom transaction to the Closing Date, Seller shall
operate and shall cause WDRQ, Inc. to operate the Station in compliance with
all Environmental Laws and (iii) there are no judicial or administrative
actions, proceedings or investigations pending or, to Seller's knowledge,
threatened in writing against Seller, or, to Seller's knowledge, against Viacom
or any real property operated or leased by Viacom in connection with its
operation of the Station alleging the violation of or seeking to impose
liability pursuant to any Environmental Law.

                 Section 3.16.    Financial Information. Section 3.16 of the
Disclosure Schedule sets forth the Unaudited Balance Sheet and the related
Unaudited Statement of Income for the Station for the year ended December 31,
1996 as provided to Seller by Viacom pursuant to the Viacom Stock Purchase
Agreement.  Nothing has come to Seller's attention which would lead Seller to
believe that such Balance Sheet or Statement of Income is materially
inaccurate.

                 Section 3.17.    EXCLUSIVITY OF REPRESENTATIONS.  THE
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MADE BY SELLER IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU OF
AND ARE EXCLUSIVE OF ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES.  SELLER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY SUCH OTHER OR IMPLIED
REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DELIVERY OR DISCLOSURE TO
PURCHASER OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF
ANY DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER INFORMATION (INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY
FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS OR OTHER SUPPLEMENTAL DATA).

                                  ARTICLE IV.

                  REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

                 Purchaser represents and warrants to Seller as follows:

                 Section 4.01.    Incorporation and Authority of Purchaser.
Purchaser is a corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good
standing under the Laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization,
is and at Closing will be duly qualified to do business in and in good standing
under the laws of the State of Michigan and has all necessary corporate power
and authority to enter into this Agreement, to carry out its obligations
hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby.  The
execution and delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser, the performance by
Purchaser of its obligations hereunder and the consummation by Purchaser of the
transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized by all requisite
corporate action on the part of Purchaser.  This Agreement has been duly
executed and delivered by Purchaser and (assuming due authorization, execution
and delivery by Seller) constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Purchaser enforceable against





                                       15
<PAGE>   21
Purchaser in accordance with its terms, subject, as to enforceability, to the
effect of any applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium,
fraudulent conveyance or similar Laws affecting creditors' rights generally and
to the effect of general principles of equity (regardless of whether such
enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at Law).

                 Section 4.02.    No Conflict.  Except as may result from any
facts or circumstances relating solely to Seller, the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement by Purchaser do not and will not (a) violate or
conflict with the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws (or other similar
applicable documents) of Purchaser, (b) conflict with or violate any Law or
Governmental Order applicable to Purchaser or (c) result in any breach of, or
constitute a default (or event which with the giving of notice or lapse of
time, or both, would become a default) under, or give to any Person any rights
of termination, amendment, acceleration or cancellation of, or result in the
creation of any Lien on any of the assets or properties of Purchaser pursuant
to, any material note, bond, mortgage, indenture, contract, agreement, lease,
license, permit, franchise or other instrument relating to such assets or
properties to which Purchaser is a party or by which any of such assets or
properties is bound or affected, except as would not, individually or in the
aggregate, prohibit Purchaser from consummating the purchase and sale of the
Assets as contemplated hereby.

                 Section 4.03.    Consents and Approvals.  The execution and
delivery of this Agreement by Purchaser do not, and the performance of this
Agreement by Purchaser will not, require any consent, approval, authorization
or other action by, or filing with or notification to, any Governmental
Authority or other Person, except (a) as described in a writing delivered to
Seller by Purchaser on the date hereof, (b) the notification requirements of
the HSR Act, (c) for consents required from the FCC prior to the Closing and
those notices to be filed with the FCC after the Closing, (d) where failure to
obtain such consent, approval, authorization or action, or to make such filing
or notification, would not prohibit Purchaser from consummating the purchase
and sale of the Assets as contemplated hereby and (e) as may be necessary as a
result of any facts or circumstances relating solely to Seller or its
Affiliates.

                 Section 4.04.    Absence of Litigation.  There are no Actions
pending against Purchaser before any Governmental Authority that, individually
or in the aggregate, would prohibit Purchaser from consummating the purchase
and sale of the Assets as contemplated hereby.

                 Section 4.05.    FCC Qualification.  Except as described in a
letter referencing this Section 4.05 delivered to Seller by Purchaser on the
date hereof, Purchaser is legally, technically, financially and otherwise
qualified under the Communications Act and all rules, regulations and policies
of the FCC to acquire the FCC Licenses and own and operate the Station. Except
as described in a letter referencing this Section 4.05 delivered to Seller by
Purchaser on the date hereof, there are no proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of Purchaser, threatened in writing, or facts, which could reasonably
be expected to disqualify Purchaser under the Communications Act or otherwise
from acquiring the FCC Licenses or owning and operating the Station or would
cause the FCC not to approve the assignment of the FCC Licenses to Purchaser.
There is no fact or circumstance relating to Purchaser or any of its Affiliates
that could (i) cause





                                       16
<PAGE>   22
the FCC to deny the FCC application for assignment of the FCC Licenses as
provided for in this Agreement or (ii) delay processing of the FCC application
for the assignment of the FCC Licenses as provided for in this Agreement
because the FCC is considering whether acts or omissions of Purchaser or any of
its Affiliates warrant admonishing Purchaser or any of its Affiliates, or
imposing a fine, forfeiture, or other penalty against Purchaser or any of its
Affiliates.

                 Section 4. 06.   Brokers.  No broker, finder or investment
banker is entitled to any brokerage, finder's or other fee or commission in
connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement based upon
arrangements made by or on behalf of Purchaser.

                 Section 4. 07.   EXCLUSIVITY OF REPRESENTATIONS.  THE
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES MADE BY PURCHASER IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU
OF AND ARE EXCLUSIVE OF ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY
IMPLIED WARRANTIES.  PURCHASER HEREBY DISCLAIMS ANY SUCH OTHER OR IMPLIED
REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES, NOTWITHSTANDING THE DELIVERY OR DISCLOSURE TO
SELLER OR ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY
DOCUMENTATION OR OTHER INFORMATION.

                                   ARTICLE V.

                             ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

                 Section 5.01.    Conduct of Business Prior to the Closing.
(a)  Between the date hereof and the Closing Date, Purchaser shall not directly
or indirectly control, supervise or direct, or attempt to control, supervise or
direct, the operation of the Station.  Such operation, including complete
control and supervision of all programs, employees and policies of the Station
shall be the sole responsibility of Viacom prior to the consummation of the
Viacom Transaction and Seller from the date of such consummation.  Neither
title nor right to possession of the Assets or the Station shall pass to
Purchaser until the Closing, but Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts
to provide to Purchaser opportunity for reasonable inspection of the Station
and the Assets (upon reasonable prior notice) during normal business hours with
the purpose that an uninterrupted and efficient transfer thereof may be
accomplished.

                 (b)      Unless Purchaser otherwise agrees in writing and
except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Disclosure Schedule, between the
date hereof and the date of the consummation of the Viacom Transaction Seller
shall use its best efforts to cause Viacom to abide by its obligations under
Section 5.01(b) of the Viacom Stock Purchase Agreement and between the date of
the consummation of the Viacom Transaction and the Closing Date, Seller shall
and shall cause WDRQ, Inc. to, (i) conduct the business of the Station only in
the ordinary course consistent with past practice, (ii)  use commercially
reasonable efforts to keep available to Purchaser the services of the key
employees and on-air talent of the Station, (iii) use commercially reasonable
efforts to preserve the current relationships of the Station with its

business relationships, and (iv) pay and discharge all material liabilities of
the Station substantially in accordance with their terms (other than
liabilities being contested in good faith).

                 (c)      Unless Purchaser otherwise agrees in writing and
except as otherwise set forth herein, between the date hereof and date of the
consummation of the Viacom Transaction, Seller shall use its best efforts to
cause Viacom to abide by its obligations under Section 5.01(c) of the Viacom
Stock Purchase Agreement and between the date of the consummation of the Viacom
Transaction and the Closing Date, Seller shall not do and shall not permit
WDRQ, Inc. to do any of the following without the prior written consent of
Purchaser: (i) grant any Lien on any Asset, other than Permitted Liens, or
incur any liabilities other than, in either such case, in the ordinary course
of business consistent with past practice, (ii) sell, assign, lease or
otherwise transfer or dispose of any material Asset other than in the ordinary
course of business, consistent with past practices of the Station, (iii)
acquire any program rights or enter into any contract, agreement, commitment,
license or understanding therefore except in the ordinary course of business
and consistent with past business practices of the Station and involving
aggregate payments or obligations not to exceed $100,000 individually or
$500,000 in the aggregate for all such contracts which shall be assumed by
Purchaser; provided, however, that in the event that Purchaser does not respond
to Seller's notice of its intent to enter into any such agreement within five
(5) business days of its receipt thereof, Seller may proceed to enter into the
agreement set forth in such notice, (iv) knowingly take any action which could
jeopardize the validity or enforceability of or rights under the FCC Licenses,
other material authorizations or material Contracts.

                 Section 5.02.    Access to Information.  From the date hereof
until the consummation of the Viacom Transaction, Seller shall use its best
efforts to cause Viacom to and, from the date of the consummation of the Viacom
Transaction to the Closing Date, Seller shall, upon reasonable notice from
Purchaser (i) afford the officers, employees and agents and representatives of
Purchaser reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the offices,
properties, books and records of the Station and (ii) furnish to the officers,
employees and authorized agents and representatives of Purchaser such
additional financial and operating data and other information regarding the
Business and the Assets as Purchaser may from time to time reasonably request;
provided, however, that such investigation shall not unreasonably interfere
with the business of the Station or any of the businesses or operations of
Seller.  Between the date of this Agreement and the Closing, Seller agrees to
forward to Purchaser promptly upon receipt (i) copies of any Supplemental
Financial Statements (as defined in Section 5.07 of the Viacom Stock Purchase
Agreement) or portions thereof relating to the Station that Seller receives
pursuant to Section 5.07 of the Viacom Stock Purchase Agreement, and (ii) any
additional notices or disclosure that Seller may receive from Viacom with
respect to the Station.

                 Section 5.03.    Confidentiality.  Each party agrees that any

otherwise public or known in the radio broadcast industry) shall be
confidential and agrees not to disclose any such information to any person
whatsoever other than as is necessary for the purpose of effecting the
Transaction or as otherwise required by law.  In the event this Agreement is
terminated, all confidential information provided by Seller to Purchaser shall
be returned to Seller, unless the same is





                                       18

reasonably retained in connection with litigation or other proceedings between
the parties relating to this Agreement.

                 Section 5.04.    Regulatory and Other Authorizations:
Consents.  (a)  Each party hereto shall use its reasonable best efforts to
obtain all authorizations, consents, orders and approvals of all Governmental
Authorities that may be or become necessary for its execution and delivery of,
and the performance of its obligations pursuant to, this Agreement and will
cooperate fully with the other party in promptly seeking to obtain all such
authorizations, consents, orders and approvals.  The parties hereto will not
knowingly take any action that would have the effect of delaying, impairing or
impeding the receipt of any required approval.

                 (b)      Seller and Purchaser shall prepare and file with the
FCC as soon as practicable, but in no event later than seven (7) Business Days
after the execution of this Agreement, the FCC Applications.  After the
aforesaid FCC Applications have been filed with the FCC, Seller and Purchaser
shall prosecute such applications with all reasonable diligence to obtain the
requisite FCC Consent; provided, however, except as provided in the following
sentence, that neither Seller nor Purchaser shall be required to pay
consideration to any third party to obtain the FCC Consent.  Purchaser and
Seller shall share equally the cost of all FCC filing fees relating to the
Transaction.

                 (c)      Each party hereto agrees to make an appropriate
filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect
to the transactions contemplated hereby within fifteen (15) Business Days after
the date hereof and to supply promptly any additional information and
documentary material that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act.  Purchaser
shall bear all filing fees associated with the HSR filings.

                 (d)      Each party hereto agrees to cooperate in obtaining
any other consents and approvals which may be required in connection with the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Seller in
cooperation with Purchaser shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
obtain each consent identified in Section 3.03 of the Disclosure Schedule prior
to the Closing Date.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Seller nor
Purchaser shall be required to pay consideration to any third party to obtain
any such consent or approval.

                 Section 5.05.    Insurance.  Seller shall maintain all
existing insurance policies, or comparable coverage, for the Station and the
Assets, as listed in Section 5.05 of the Disclosure Schedule.

                 Section 5.06.    Notification.    Seller shall notify
Purchaser, and Purchaser shall notify Seller, of any litigation, arbitration or

Purchaser, on the other hand, which challenges the transactions contemplated
hereby.

                 Section 5.07.    No Other Bids.  From and after the date
hereof, neither Seller nor any of Seller's Affiliates shall, nor shall it
authorize or permit any officer, director or employee of, or any investment
banker, attorney or other advisor or representative of Seller or any of





                                       19
<PAGE>   25
Seller's Affiliates to, directly or indirectly, (a) solicit, initiate or
encourage the submission of any Acquisition Proposal (as hereinafter defined)
or (b) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to
any person any information with respect to, or take any other action to
facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes an
Acquisition Proposal, except as provided in Section 8.02(b) hereof.  For
purposes of this Agreement, "Acquisition Proposal" means any proposal with
respect to a merger, consolidation, share exchange or similar transaction or
business combination involving the Station, or any proposal or offer to acquire
in any manner a substantial equity interest in the Station or any proposal or
offer to purchase of all or any significant portion of the Assets, other than
the transactions contemplated hereby.

                 Section 5.08.    Covenant Not to Compete.  Seller covenants
and agrees that for a period of twenty-four (24) months from the Closing Date,
neither Seller nor any of its Affiliates shall operate a commercial FM radio
broadcast station or provide programming to a commercial FM radio broadcasting
station in the Detroit, Michigan metropolitan area radio market with a
programming format that is substantially similar to the programming format of
the Station; provided, however, that this Section 5.08 shall not (i) require
Seller to change the current format of any station owned by it or its
Affiliates, to which Seller or its Affiliates currently provides programming,
or to be acquired by Seller or EMCLA in connection with the Viacom Transaction
or the merger Chancellor with and into Evergreen pursuant to that certain
Agreement and Plan of Merger between Chancellor and Evergreen, dated as of
February 19, 1997 in the Detroit, Michigan metropolitan area radio market
("Seller Existing Stations"), (ii) limit Seller's ability to program "dance
sets" or features on any Seller Existing Station consistent with the current
format and programming of such Seller Existing Station, nor (iii) to the extent
necessary to facilitate a group acquisition by Seller, limit Seller's ability
to acquire a commercial FM radio broadcast station in the Detroit, Michigan
metropolitan area radio market, as part of a group acquisition, with an
existing programming format substantially similar to the programming format of
the Station; provided that Seller shall hold such station for no longer than
six (6) months after the consummation of such group acquisition.  For the
purposes hereof, a programming format substantially similar to the programming
format of the Station shall mean that described by industry publications as
"dance."

                 Section 5.09.    Non-Solicitation.  For a period of ninety
(90) days from the Closing Date, Seller will not solicit or offer employment to
any general manager, general sales manager, on-air talent or program director
who is then a Transferred Employee and Purchaser shall not solicit or offer
employment to any general manager, general sales manager, on-air talent or
program director who is then an employee of a Seller Existing Station, except
that a general solicitation through advertisement will not constitute a
violation of this Section.

                 Section 5.10.    Seller's Modifications to Representations and
Warranties.  Seller may modify in writing any representation or warranty made
with qualification as to Seller's knowledge (and related sections of the
Disclosure Schedule) to the extent necessary to cause such representation,
warranty or section of the Disclosure Schedule to be accurate in light of
information of which Seller becomes aware after the date of this Agreement
("Seller's Modifications"); provided, however, that (i) Seller's Modifications
shall not modify the definition of Contracts or Section 3.11 of the Disclosure
Schedule and (ii) should Seller's





                                       20
<PAGE>   26
Modifications constitute a Material Adverse Effect and should Seller offer to
reduce the Purchase Price to reflect the impact of the Material Adverse Effect
on the value of the Station to the extent that such amount exceeds the
indemnification threshold set forth in Section 9.02(b) ("Purchase Price
Reduction"), then Purchaser shall agree to waive the condition set forth in
Section 7.02(a)(iv) hereof and proceed to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby.  The amount offered by Seller pursuant to the preceding
sentence is referred to herein as the "Seller's Proposed Purchase Price
Reduction."  Upon receipt of Seller's Proposed Purchase Price Reduction,
Purchaser shall have ten (10) Business Days within which to either accept
Seller's Proposed Purchase Price Reduction or give notice to Seller of its
proposed Purchase Price Reduction ("the "Purchaser's Proposed Purchase Price
Reduction").  Upon receipt of Purchaser's Proposed Purchase Price Reduction,
Seller shall have ten (10) Business Days in which to either accept Purchaser's
Proposed Purchase Price Reduction or to notify Purchaser of its intent to
submit the matter to an independent arbitor jointly selected by Purchaser and
Seller for resolution.  Within ten (10) Business Days of Seller's arbitration
notice, Purchaser shall submit the Purchaser's Proposed Purchase Price
Reduction together with supporting materials and Seller shall submit Seller's
Proposed Purchase Price Reduction together with any supporting materials to
such independent arbitor and thereafter, the independent arbitor shall have
twenty (20) days to determine the amount of the Purchase Price Reduction.  In
determining the amount of the Purchase Price Reduction, the arbitor may only
select either Seller's Proposed Purchase Price Reduction or Purchaser's
Proposed Purchase Price Reduction and shall not make an independent
determination of value.  The decision of the independent arbitor shall be
binding upon the parties and neither party shall seek review or appeal thereof.

                 Section 5.11.    Further Action.  Each of the parties hereto
shall execute and deliver such documents and other papers and take such further
actions as may be reasonably required to carry out the provisions of this
Agreement and give effect to the transactions contemplated hereby.

                                  ARTICLE VI.

                                EMPLOYEE MATTERS

                 Section 6.01.    Employees.  (a)  To Seller's knowledge, set
forth in Section 6.01(a) of the Disclosure Schedule is a true and complete list
showing the names and current annual salary rates of all of the employees and
on-air talent of the Station as of the date hereof (the "Viacom Employees"),
which includes for such employees the amounts paid or payable as a base salary
and lists any other compensation arrangements for such employees for 1996,
including bonuses or other compensation arrangements.  To Seller's knowledge,
such employees constitute all of the on-air talent and personnel working at the
Station (whether full-time or part-time) or otherwise involved in the
operations of the Station.

                 (b)      Except as provided in a letter referring to this
Section 6.01(b) executed by the parties on the date hereof, Purchaser shall
offer to employ each of the Viacom Employees that are employed at the Station
on the Closing Date, together with any employees of Seller or its Affiliates
employed at the Station on the Closing Date (together with the Viacom
Employees, the "Station Employees") either by assumption of those of the
Contracts that are employment





                                       21
<PAGE>   27
agreements or, in the case of Station Employees not subject to such agreements,
by offering employment at the Station on substantially the same terms as each
such Station Employee is employed at Closing.  For the purposes hereof, those
Station Employees who accept employment with Purchaser at the Station in
connection with the Closing are hereinafter referred to collectively as the
"Transferred Employees."

                 (c)      For the one-year period commencing on the Closing
Date (the "Continuation Period"), Purchaser agrees to provide the Transferred
Employees with employee benefits that in the aggregate are substantially
equivalent to those provided to such Transferred Employees immediately prior to
the Closing.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Purchaser shall
not have any obligation to provide any equity, equity based or similar
compensation or benefit to any Transferred Employee with respect to the equity
of Purchaser or its Affiliates, and no equity or equity based compensation or
benefits provided to Transferred Employees immediately prior to the Closing
shall be taken into account for purposes of this Section 6.01(c) in determining
substantial equivalence.

                 (d)      To the extent that service is relevant for
eligibility, vesting, benefit accrual, benefit contributions, benefit
calculations or allowances (including entitlements to vacation and sick days
but not for any purpose under any retirement plan), under any employee benefit
plan, program or arrangement established or maintained by Purchaser for the
benefit of Transferred Employees, such plan, program or arrangement shall
credit such Transferred Employees for service on or prior to the Closing with
Seller, Viacom or any Affiliate thereof; provided, however, that Purchaser
shall not be obligated to give credit for such service to the extent it (i)
would result in duplication of any benefits to which a Transferred Employee is
entitled to under any comparable plans, programs or arrangements maintained by
Seller or any of its Affiliates on or prior to the Closing Date or by Purchaser
after the Closing Date or (ii) was not a service which was recognized for
purposes of such comparable plans, programs or arrangements.  In addition,
Purchaser shall waive any pre-existing conditions and recognize for purposes of
annual deductible and out-of-pocket limits under its medical and dental plans,
claims of Transferred Employees incurred during the year in which the Closing
Date occurs and prior to the Closing Date.  Seller shall cooperate with
Purchaser, and shall use reasonable efforts to cause Viacom to cooperate with
Purchaser in determining the expenses incurred by the Transferred Employees.

                 Section 6.02.    Retirement Plan.  (a)  Viacom has advised
Seller that it maintains the Viacom Investment Plan (the "VIP") and that
certain of the Viacom Employees may be participants in the VIP.  The Viacom
Stock Purchase Agreement obligates Seller to designate a defined contribution
plan ("Seller's DC Plan") that will accept account balances and loan
obligations in the VIP of any Viacom Employee who remains employed at the
Station after the consummation of the Viacom Transaction.  Seller's DC Plan may
also be available to other Station Employees.

                 (b)      Purchaser will cooperate with Seller to provide
Seller and Viacom such current information regarding Transferred Employees as
may be necessary to administer the VIP or Seller's DC Plan.  Seller will
cooperate with Purchaser and will use its reasonable efforts to





                                       22
<PAGE>   28
cause Viacom to cooperate with Purchaser to provide Purchaser with information
of the tax qualified status of the VIP and Seller's DC Plan.

                 (c)      Purchaser agrees that it shall designate a defined
contribution plan ("Purchaser's DC Plan") that will accept a direct rollover,
within the meaning of Section 401(a)(31) of the Code and subject to the
requirements of the Code and applicable law, of the account balances of
Transferred Employees in the VIP and Seller's DC Plan, including any loan
obligation that a Transferred Employee may have in his or her account in the
VIP or Seller's DC Plan.  To the extent that a Transferred Employee transfers a
loan obligation to Purchaser's DC Plan, Purchaser's DC Plan shall continue to
accept repayments of such loan amounts and shall otherwise administer such
loans in accordance with their terms and the terms of ERISA until such loan
amounts are repaid or are foreclosed upon.

                 (d)      Purchaser shall provide continuation health care
coverage to all Transferred Employees and their qualified beneficiaries who
incur a qualifying event after the Closing in accordance with the continuation
health care coverage requirements of Section 4980D of the Code and Sections 601
through 608 of ERISA ("COBRA").  Seller shall be responsible for providing
continuation coverage to the extent required by law (i) to any Transferred
Employee who incurs a "qualifying event" under COBRA on or before the Closing
Date and (ii) to any employee who is not a Transferred Employee who incurs a
"qualifying event" under COBRA on or before the Closing Date.

                 Section 6.03.    No Third Party Beneficiaries.  Nothing in
this Article VI or elsewhere in this Agreement shall be deemed to make any of
the Station Employees, Viacom or any other third party, third party
beneficiaries of this Agreement.

                                  ARTICLE VII.

                             CONDITIONS TO CLOSING

                 Section 7.01.    Conditions to Obligations of Seller.  The

                 (b)      Validity of Station Licenses. On the Closing Date,

subject to Seller's Modifications, or (ii) Seller shall fail to comply with or
satisfy, in all material respects, its covenants and agreements made hereunder
provided that written notice of such material inaccuracy, breach or failure
shall have been given to Seller and Seller shall not have cured the same within
ten (10) Business Days of receipt of such notice, except that Purchaser shall
be entitled to terminate this Agreement, and there shall be no cure period for
any breach, whether or not material, for a failure by Seller to deliver the
Assets pursuant to Section 2.06;

                 (f)      by either Seller or Purchaser in the event of the
issuance of a final, nonappealable Governmental Order restraining or
prohibiting the transactions contemplated herein; provided, however, no right
to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.01(f) shall accrue to any
party whose failure to fulfill any material obligation under this Agreement
shall have been the cause of, or shall have resulted in, the issuance of such
Governmental Order; or

                 (g)      pursuant to Section 10.06 hereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither party may terminate this Agreement
pursuant to clauses (c) or (d) of this Section 8.01 if any representation or
warranty of the party seeking to terminate is materially inaccurate or breached
or such party has failed to comply with or satisfy, in all material respects,
its covenants and agreements made hereunder.

                 Section 8.02.    Results of Termination.  (a)  If this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.01(c) or by Seller pursuant to
Section 8.01(f), then (i) Seller shall instruct, and at the same time notify
Purchaser in writing of its intent to instruct the Escrow Agent to disburse all
amounts held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement to Seller,
provided that the Escrow Agent shall not disburse such amounts to Purchaser
pursuant to this Section 8.02(a) if it receives a written objection from
Purchaser within ten (10) days of Seller's notice to Purchaser, (ii) if
applicable, Purchaser shall pay the Interest Amount to Seller on the Interest
Payment Date.

                 (b)      If on the earlier of (i) ninety (90) days from the
date upon which all conditions to the obligations of EMCLA and Purchaser to
consummate the transactions contemplated by the WJZW Purchase Agreement have
either been satisfied or waived by the parties, or (ii) the Outside Date,
Purchaser is unable to consummate the Transaction due in whole or primarily to
an issue arising under the Commission's multiple ownership rules or policies
with respect to Purchaser's ownership (directly or through an Affiliate) of the
Oakland Press, Pontiac, Michigan, then Seller may solicit Acquisition Proposals
as set forth below and the Escrow Deposit shall continue to be held by the
Escrow Agent pursuant to the Escrow Agreement until such time as Seller is able
to solicit an Acquisition Proposal and consummate the sale of the Station
pursuant to such Acquisition Proposal (the "Alternative Disposition").  Upon
the consummation of the Alternative Disposition, Seller and Purchaser shall
jointly instruct the Escrow Agent to release to Seller an amount (the
"Alternative Disposition Payment") equal to the Purchase Price minus the
purchase price received by Seller pursuant to the Alternative Disposition (the
"Alternative Disposition Purchase Price").  Purchaser shall not be entitled to
receive any amount by which the Alternative Disposition Purchase Price exceeds
the Purchase Price due hereunder.  Should the amount of the Alternative
Disposition Payment exceed the amount of the Escrow Deposit, Purchaser shall
deliver the balance of the Alternative Disposition Payment by wire transfer in
immediately available funds, pursuant to wire instructions to be delivered to
Purchaser, to Seller on the date of the consummation of the Alternative
Disposition.  Should the amount of the Escrow Deposit exceed the amount of the
Alternative Disposition Payment, Purchaser and Seller shall jointly instruct
the Escrow Agent to release such excess to Purchaser.  In soliciting an
Acquisition Proposal and in consummating an Alternative Disposition pursuant
hereto, Seller shall utilize commercially reasonable practices customary in the
sale of radio broadcast stations.

                 (c)      If this Agreement is terminated (i) by Purchaser
pursuant to Sections 8.01(b), 8.01(e), 8.01(f) or 8.01(g), (ii) by either party
pursuant to Section 8.01(a), or (iii) is terminated by Seller other than in
compliance with the terms of this Agreement , then Purchaser shall instruct,
and at the same time notify Seller in writing of its intent to instruct, the
Escrow Agent to disburse all amounts held by the Escrow Agent pursuant to the
Escrow Agreement provided that the Escrow Agent shall not disburse such amounts
to Purchaser pursuant to this Section 8.02(c) if it receives a written
objection from Seller within ten (10) days of Purchaser's notice to Seller.

<PAGE>   33
                 (d)      In the event of the termination of this Agreement as
provided in Sections 8.01, this Agreement shall forthwith become void and there
shall be no liability on the part of any party hereto, except as set forth in
Sections 3.14, 5.03, 8.02 and 10.02.

                 (e)      The parties recognize that if, prior to Closing,
Seller breaches this Agreement and refuses to perform under the provisions of
this Agreement, monetary damages would not be adequate to compensate Purchaser
for its injury.  Purchaser shall therefore, in lieu of any other remedies which
may be available prior to Closing, including monetary damages, be entitled to
obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement.  If any action is
brought by Purchaser to enforce this Agreement prior to Closing, Seller shall
waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law.

                 (f)      If this Agreement is terminated by Seller and Section
8.02(a) applies, then the payment to Seller pursuant to Section 8.02(a) shall
be liquidated damages and shall constitute full payment and exclusive remedy
for any damages suffered by Seller.  Seller and Purchaser agree in advance that
actual damages would be difficult to ascertain and that the amount of the
payment to be made to Seller pursuant to Section 8.02(a) is a fair and
equitable amount to reimburse Seller for damages sustained due to Purchaser's
breach of this Agreement.

                 Section 8.03.    Waiver.  At any time prior to the Closing,
any party may (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations
or other acts of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracies in the
representations and warranties of the other party hereto contained herein or in
any document delivered pursuant hereto or (c) waive compliance by the other
party hereto with any of the agreements or conditions contained herein.  Any
such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in
writing signed by the party to be bound thereby.

                                  ARTICLE IX.

                            POST CLOSING OBLIGATIONS

                 The parties covenant and agree as follows with respect to the
period subsequent to the Closing Date:

                 Section 9.01.    Indemnification by Purchaser.  (a)  Subject
to Section 10.01, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller, its Affiliates and
their respective employees, officers and directors (collectively, the "Seller
Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against, and agrees to promptly defend
any Seller Indemnified Party from and reimburse any Seller Indemnified Party
for, any and all losses, damages, costs, expenses, liabilities, obligations and
claims of any kind (including any Action brought by any Governmental Authority
or Person and including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses reasonably
incurred) (collectively, "Losses"), which such Seller Indemnified Party may at
any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a result or in connection
with:

                          (i)     the inaccuracy as of the date of this
         Agreement or the Closing Date of any representations and warranties
         made by Purchaser in or





                                       28
<PAGE>   34
         pursuant to this Agreement or in any instrument or certificate
         delivered by Purchaser at the Closing in accordance herewith;

                          (ii)    any failure by Purchaser to carry out,
         perform, satisfy and discharge any of its covenants, agreements,
         undertakings, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement or under
         any of the documents and/or other instruments delivered by Purchaser
         pursuant to this Agreement;

                          (iii)   any liabilities expressly assumed by
         Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.02(b) hereof, or

                          (iv)    events or circumstances occurring after the
         Closing Date, arising out of, relating to or resulting from the
         business of Purchaser, or relating to or resulting from the Assets or
         the business or operations of the Station after the Closing Date.

                 (b)      Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary,
Purchaser shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless any Seller
Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.01(a)(x) unless Seller has asserted a
claim with respect to such matters within the applicable survival period set
forth in Section 10.01, and (y) until the aggregate amount of Seller
Indemnified Parties' Losses exceeds an amount equal to One Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) after which Purchaser shall be obligated for all
Losses of Seller Indemnified Parties in excess of such amount; provided,
however, that the cumulative indemnification obligation of Purchaser under
Section 9.01(a)(i) of this Article IX shall in no event exceed Eleven Million
Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($11,500,000).

                 Section 9.02. Indemnification by Seller. (a) Subject to
Section 10.01 hereof, Seller shall indemnify and hold Purchaser, its Affiliates
and their respective employees, officers and directors (collectively, the
"Purchaser Indemnified Parties") harmless from and against, and agrees to
promptly defend any Purchaser Indemnified Party from and reimburse any
Purchaser Indemnified Party for, any and all Losses which such Purchaser
Indemnified Party may at any time suffer or incur, or become subject to, as a
result or in connection with:

                          (i)     the inaccuracy as of the date of this
         Agreement or the Closing Date of any representations and warranties
         made by Seller in or pursuant to this Agreement or in any instrument
         or certificate delivered by Seller at the Closing in accordance
         herewith;

                          (ii)    any failure by Seller to carry out, perform,
         satisfy and discharge any of its covenants, agreements, undertakings,
         liabilities or obligations under this Agreement or under any of the
         documents and/or other instruments delivered by Seller pursuant to
         this Agreement;

                          (iii)   any liabilities not expressly assumed by
         Purchaser pursuant to Section 2.02(b) hereof, or





                                       29
<PAGE>   35
                          (iv)    events or circumstances occurring on or prior
         to the Closing Date, arising out of, relating to or resulting from the
         business of Seller or  Viacom, or relating to or resulting from the
         Assets or the business or operations of the Station prior to the
         Closing Date.

                 (b)      Notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary,
Seller shall not be required to indemnify and hold harmless any Purchaser
Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 9.02(a) (x) unless Purchaser has asserted
a claim with respect to such matters within the applicable survival period set
forth in Section 10.01, and (y) until the aggregate amount of Purchaser
Indemnified Parties' Losses exceeds an amount equal to One Million Five Hundred
Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000) after which Seller shall be obligated for all
Losses of Purchaser Indemnified Parties in excess of such amount; provided,
however, that the cumulative indemnification obligation of Seller under this
Article X shall in no event exceed Eleven Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($11,500,000).

                 (c)      For purposes of calculating the amount of Losses
subject to indemnification pursuant to Sections 9.01 and 9.02, it is understood
and agreed between the parties hereto that to determine if there has been an
inaccuracy or breach of a representation or warranty (i) which is qualified as
to materiality by the party making such representation or warranty or contains
an exception for matters that would not have a Material Adverse Effect, then
such representation or warranty shall be read as if it were not so qualified or
contained no such exception, or (ii) which is qualified as to knowledge by the
Seller (except those representations and warranties made (x) in Sections 3.05,
3.07 and 3.15 as to threatened litigation or proceedings, (y) those made in the
last sentence of Section 3.07 and in Sections 3.02 and 3.06 as to matters
relating to Viacom, and (z) those made in Section 3.16) shall be read as if it
were not so qualified.

                 Section 9.03.  Notification of Claims.  (a)  A party
entitled to be indemnified pursuant to Section 9.01 or 9.02 (the "Indemnified
Party") shall promptly notify the party liable for such indemnification (the
"Indemnifying Party") in writing of any claim or demand which the Indemnified
Party has determined has given or could give rise to a right of indemnification
under this Agreement; provided, however, that a failure to give prompt notice
or to include any specified information in any notice will not affect the
rights or obligations of any party hereunder except and only to the extent
that, as a result of such failure, any party which was entitled to receive such
notice was damaged as a result of such failure.  Subject to the Indemnifying
Party's right to defend in good faith third party claims as hereinafter
provided, the Indemnifying Party shall satisfy its obligations under this
Article IX within 30 days after the receipt of written notice thereof from the
Indemnified Party.

                 (b)      If the Indemnified Party shall notify the
Indemnifying Party of any claim or demand pursuant to Section 9.03(a), and if
such claim or demand relates to a claim or demand asserted by a third party
against the Indemnified Party which the Indemnifying Party acknowledges is a
claim or demand for which it must indemnify or hold harmless the Indemnified
Party under Section 9.01 or 9.02, the Indemnifying Party shall have the right
to employ counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party to defend any
such claim or





                                       30
<PAGE>   36
demand asserted against the Indemnified Party for so long as the Indemnifying
Party shall continue in good faith to diligently defend against such action or
claim.  The Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate in the
defense of any such claim or demand at its own expense.  The Indemnifying Party
shall notify the Indemnified Party in writing, as promptly as possible (but in
any case five Business Days before the due date for the answer or response to a
claim) after the date of the notice of claim given by the Indemnified Party to
the Indemnifying Party under Section 9.03(a) of its election to defend in good
faith any such third party claim or demand.  So long as the Indemnifying Party
is defending in good faith any such claim or demand asserted by a third party
against the Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall not settle or
compromise such claim or demand without the consent of the Indemnifying Party,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, and the Indemnified Party
shall make available to the Indemnifying Party or its agents all records and
other material in the Indemnified Party's possession reasonably required by it
for its use in contesting any third party claim or demand.  Whether or not the
Indemnifying Party elects to defend any such claim or demand, the Indemnified
Party shall have no obligations to do so.  In the event the Indemnifying Party
elects not to defend such claim or action or if the Indemnifying Party elects
to defend such claim or action but fails to diligently defend such claim or
action in good faith, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to settle or
compromise such claim or action without the consent of the Indemnifying Party,
except that the Indemnified Party shall not settle or compromise any such claim
or demand, unless the Indemnifying Party is given a full and complete release
of any and all liability by all relevant parties relating thereto.

                 Section 9.04.    Certain Exclusive Remedies.  Seller and
Purchaser acknowledge and agree that, after the Closing, the indemnification
provisions of Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive remedies of Seller and
Purchaser, respectively, for any breach of the representations or warranties
herein or nonperformance of any covenants and agreements herein of the other
party.

                 Section 9.05.    Accounts Receivable.  (a)  At the Closing,
Seller may assign to Purchaser for purposes of collection the Accounts
Receivable and with any such assignment Seller shall deliver to Purchaser a
complete and detailed statement of each assigned Accounts Receivable (the
"Receivable Statement").  The Receivable Statement will show all commissions
owing with respect to such receivables, if any.  Seller may amend the
Receivables Statement within ten (10) business days after the Closing to
reflect any additional accounts of which it becomes aware.

                 (b)      For a period of 120 days following the Closing Date
(the "Collection Period") Purchaser will collect the Accounts Receivable, in
the same manner and with the same diligence Purchaser uses to collect its own
accounts receivable; provided, however, that Purchaser shall not be obligated
to institute litigation, employ any collection agency, legal counsel or other
third party, or take any other extraordinary means of collection. During the
Collection Period, Seller will not solicit or institute litigation for the
collection of the Accounts Receivable, except with respect to Accounts
Receivable reassigned to Seller for collection as set forth below.





                                       31
<PAGE>   37
                 (c)      Purchaser shall remit to Seller by the 15th day after
the end of each month during the Collection Period all collections received
during that prior month, together with an accounting thereof.  Purchaser may
deduct from such collections any commission which may be due with respect to
the collected receivable (as indicated on the Receivable Statement) and, if so,
shall promptly notify Seller of the deduction and remit such commission to the
appropriate person.  Purchaser shall not make any other deductions from such
collections other than the resolution or an application of credit balances as
set forth in the Receivables Statement.  In the event that Seller is entitled
to a refund of any commission paid with respect to the Accounts Receivable,
Purchaser shall use its reasonable efforts to obtain and promptly remit such
refund.  All amounts received by Purchaser from account debtors included among
the Accounts Receivable shall be applied first to such Accounts Receivable,
unless the account debtor specifically and in good faith disputes an Account
Receivable and instructs that the payment be otherwise applied.  If during the
Collection Period an account debtor disputes an account included among the
Accounts Receivable, Seller may request Purchaser to reassign that account to
Seller for collection.  At the conclusion of the Collection Period, Purchaser
shall reassign to Seller any remaining uncollected Accounts Receivable, and
thereafter Purchaser shall have no further obligation to the other with respect
to such Accounts Receivable.

                 Section 9.06.    Post-Closing Access.  (a)  Purchaser, for a
period of five (5) years following the Closing Date, shall make available
during normal business hours, for audit and inspection by Seller and its
representatives, for any reasonable purpose and upon reasonable notice, all
records, files, documents and correspondence transferred to it hereunder with
respect to taxes, regulations and litigations, provided that Purchaser's
business operations will not thereby be unreasonably interfered with.
Purchaser shall at no time dispose of or destroy any such records, files,
documents and correspondence without first giving (30) days prior notice to
Seller to permit Seller, at its expense, to examine, duplicate or take
possession of and title to such records, files, documents and correspondence.
All personnel records shall be maintained as confidential if required by any
applicable state or federal law.

                 (b)      Seller, for a period of five (5) years following the
Closing Date, shall make available during normal business hours, for audit and
inspection by Purchaser and its representatives for any reasonable business
purpose and upon reasonable notice, all records, files, documents and
correspondence retained by it with respect to Taxes, regulations and
litigations relating to the Station or the Assets, provided that Seller's
business operations will not thereby be unreasonably interfered with.  Seller
shall not and shall use its reasonable efforts to cause Viacom not to dispose
or destroy any such records, files, documents and correspondence without first
giving thirty (30) days prior notice to Purchaser to permit Purchaser, at its
expense, to examine, duplicate or take possession of and title to such records,
files, documents and correspondence.  All personnel records, shall be
maintained as confidential if required by any applicable state or federal law.

                               GENERAL PROVISIONS

                 Section 10.01.   Survival.  The representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements of Seller and Purchaser contained in or made pursuant
to this Agreement or in any certificate furnished pursuant hereto shall
terminate at the Closing, except that the representations and warranties made
in Article III and Article IV and the covenants and agreements to be performed
prior to the Closing made herein shall survive in full force and effect until
eighteen months after the Closing Date (the "Warranty Period") and in addition
shall survive and shall be unaffected by (and shall not be deemed waived by)
any investigation, audit, appraisal, or inspection at any time made by or on
behalf of any party hereto.  Covenants and agreements contained in this
Agreement identifying a specific time period, shall survive for such applicable
time period.  Otherwise, covenants and agreements made by the parties to be
performed after the Closing Date shall survive until three years after the
Closing Date.  Any claims for indemnification made by a party in accordance
with Section 9 prior to the expiration of the applicable Warranty Period shall
survive and shall not be extinguished by the expiration of such period.

                 Section 10.02.   Expenses.  Except as may be otherwise
specified herein, all costs and expenses, including fees and disbursements of
counsel, financial advisors and accountants, incurred in connection with this
Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party
incurring such costs and expenses, whether or not the Closing shall have
occurred.  All recording costs for instruments of transfer, filing fees and
similar fees and all sales, use and transfer taxes shall be paid by Purchaser.

                 Section 10.03.   Assignment by Purchaser.  Purchaser may not
assign its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to a corporation,
partnership or other business entity that controls, is controlled by or is
under common control with Purchaser, or (ii), as a collateral assignment, to
any lender who provides funds to Purchaser for the acquisition or operation of
the Station, provided, however, that any such assignment shall not delay
Closing and shall be effected in a manner that does not adversely impact the
Tax effects on Seller or its affiliates of any transaction undertaken pursuant
to Section 10.05 hereof.

                 Section 10.04.   Assignment by Seller.  Seller may assign its
rights under this Agreement to any person or entity, including but not limited
to a trust (the "Trust"), provided that such assignment does not delay the
Closing Date.





                                       33
<PAGE>   39
                 Section 10.05.   Like-Kind Exchange.  Seller may at any time
at or prior to Closing assign its rights under this Agreement to a "qualified
intermediary" as defined in Treasury Reg. Section 1.1031(k)-1(g)(4), subject to
all of Purchaser's rights and obligations hereunder, in which event Seller
shall promptly provide written notice of such assignment to Purchaser.
Purchaser shall cooperate with all reasonable requests of Seller and such
qualified intermediary in arranging and effecting the exchange as one which
qualifies under Section 1031 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended,
provided, however, that Purchaser shall not incur any Tax disadvantage as a
result of its cooperation and the Closing shall not be delayed.

                 Section 10.06.   Risk of Loss.  The risk of loss or damage by
fire or other casualty or cause to the Assets until the Closing shall be borne
by Seller.  In the event of such loss or damage on or prior to the Closing,
Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly restore, replace
or repair the damaged assets to their previous condition at Seller's sole cost
and expense; provided however, that Seller shall have no obligation hereunder
to restore, replace, or repair any of the Assets to the extent such
restoration, replacement or repair is not covered by the insurance proceeds.
In the event such loss or damage shall not be restored, replaced or repaired by
the Closing Date:

                 (a)      If the loss or damage that has not been restored,
replaced or repaired does not cause a Material Adverse Effect, Purchaser shall
proceed with the Closing, receive all insurance proceeds to which Seller would
be entitled as a result of such remaining loss or damage, and receive from
Seller reimbursement for the reasonable costs of restoration, replacement or
repair of such remaining loss or damage to the extent such costs exceed the
amount of insurance proceeds received by Purchaser pursuant to this Section
10.06(a); or

                 (b)      If the loss or damage that has not been restored,
replaced or repaired does cause a Material Adverse Effect, (i) Purchaser may,
at its option proceed with the Closing and receive all insurance proceeds to
which Seller would be entitled as a result of such loss or damage; or (ii) in
the event that Purchaser does not elect to close under clause (b)(i) hereof,
Seller may, at its option, either terminate this Agreement or defer the Closing
Date until such restorations, replacements or repairs are made such that any
remaining damage does not cause a Material Adverse Effect but in no event shall
such deferral exceed ninety (90) days (provided that no such deferral shall
affect the rights of the parties hereto to terminate this Agreement pursuant to
the provisions of Article VIII hereof).  Upon completion of such restorations,
replacements or repairs, Seller shall send a notice of completion to Purchaser
and provided Purchaser does not reasonably object to such completion notice
within five (5) days of its receipt thereof, the Closing Date shall be set for
ten (10) Business Days from the date of such completion notice; provided that
if any damage remains, Purchaser shall have the rights provided in Section
10.06(a) hereto.  In the event that Seller is unable to complete such
restorations, replacements or repairs such that any remaining damage does not
cause a Material Adverse Effect within the ninety (90) day period, this
Agreement shall terminate.

                 Section 10.07.   Notices.  All notices, requests, claims,
demands and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be
deemed to have been duly given or made when delivered in person one Business
Day after having been dispatched via a nationally

                                ESCROW AGREEMENT


                 This Escrow Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into this ___
day of April, 1997, by and among CHANCELLOR RADIO BROADCASTING COMPANY
("Seller"), ABC, Inc. ("Purchaser"), and FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF MARYLAND, as
escrow agent ("Escrow Agent").

                 Seller and Purchaser have entered into an Asset Purchase
Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") dated as of the date hereof for the sale
by Seller to Purchaser of certain property and assets used and useful in the
operation of station WDRQ(FM), Detroit, Michigan (the "Station").  Pursuant to
the Purchase Agreement, Purchaser is required on this date to deposit THREE
MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($3,700,000) in escrow to secure its
obligations under the Purchase Agreement.  Purchaser and Seller desire that
Escrow Agent hold these funds as provided in this Agreement.

                 Accordingly, in consideration of the mutual covenants
contained herein, the parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as
follows:

                 1.       Receipt of Escrow Deposit.  By its signature below,
Escrow Agent acknowledges receipt of THREE MILLION SEVEN HUNDRED THOUSAND
DOLLARS ($3,700,000) (the "Escrow Deposit") from Purchaser.

                 2.       Investment of Escrow Deposit.  The Escrow Deposit
shall be invested by Escrow Agent in interest bearing bank accounts or
certificates of deposit of federally insured financial institutions or in
treasury bills or such other investments as may be directed by the joint
written instructions of Seller and Purchaser.  All interest earned on the
Escrow Deposit shall be paid periodically to Purchaser unless or until a claim
to the Escrow Deposit is made by Seller.  Upon and after Seller's notice of
claim thereto, all interest earned on the Escrow Deposit shall become part of
the Escrow Deposit.

                 3.       Release of Escrow Deposit.  Escrow Agent shall
release the Escrow Deposit only pursuant to (a) the written instructions of
Seller including a certification that a copy of such instructions have been
delivered to Purchaser, provided that the Escrow Agent does not receive a
written objection from Purchaser within ten (10) days of Seller's notice of
such instructions, (b) the written instructions of Purchaser including a
certification that a copy of such instructions have been delivered to Seller,
provided that the Escrow Agent does not receive a written objection from Seller
within ten (10) days of Purchaser's notice of such instructions,(c) joint
written instructions executed by Seller and Purchaser, or (d) a final order of
a court of competent jurisdiction.  Escrow Agent shall release the Escrow
Deposit in accordance with such joint written instructions or final order
within two (2) business days of its receipt thereof or in accordance with the
separate written instructions of Seller or Purchaser at the expiration of the
ten (10) day period provided above.  An order shall be deemed "final" when, by
a lapse of time or otherwise, it is no longer subject to administrative or
judicial reconsideration or review.
<PAGE>   45
Escrow Agent shall be authorized to act on any document believed to be genuine
and to be signed by the proper party or parties, and will incur no liability in
so acting.  In the event of any disagreement or presentation of adverse claims
or demands in connection with the Escrow Deposit, Escrow Agent may act as
stake-holder and deposit the item in dispute with the registry of the court
having jurisdiction over the dispute.

                 4.       Indemnity.  Seller and Purchaser agree to indemnify
and hold Escrow Agent harmless against any loss, claim, damage, liability, or
expense incurred in connection with any action, suit, proceeding, claim or
alleged liability arising from this Agreement; provided, however, that Escrow
Agent shall not be so indemnified or held harmless for its gross negligence or
acts in bad faith by it or any of its agents or employees, nor for its breach
of this Agreement.

                 5.       Expenses.  All expenses incurred by Escrow Agent in
the administration of this Agreement, including reasonable legal costs incurred
by Escrow Agent, shall be shared equally by Seller and Purchaser.  Any expenses
incurred by Seller or Purchaser in connection with this Agreement shall be
borne by the parties incurring the expenses.  If there arises a dispute
concerning a party's entitlement to some or all of the Escrow Deposit, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover its reasonable costs (including
attorneys' fees) incurred in connection with such dispute.

                 6.       Notices.  All notices and other communications
required or permitted pursuant to this Escrow Agreement shall be in writing and
be deemed to have been duly given and delivered if mailed by certified mail,
