                                 TCI MUSIC, INC.
                            1997 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

                         NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AND
                       STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT


                THIS AGREEMENT (this "Agreement") is made as of the 11th day of
July, 1997 (the "Effective Grant Date"), by and between TCI MUSIC, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and the person signing adjacent to the
caption "Grantee" on the signature page hereof (the "Grantee").

                The Company has adopted the TCI Music, Inc. 1997 Stock Incentive
Plan (the "Plan"), a copy of which is attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A
and by this reference made a part hereof, for the benefit of certain eligible
persons as set forth in the Plan. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise
defined herein shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in the Plan.

                Pursuant to the Plan, the Committee has determined that it is in
the interests of the Company and its stockholders to grant the options and
rights provided herein in order to provide Grantee with additional remuneration
for services rendered, to encourage Grantee to remain in the employ of the
Company or its Subsidiaries and/or to increase Grantee's personal interest in
the continued success and progress of the Company by providing a method whereby
Grantee is encouraged to invest in the capital stock of the Company.

                The Company and Grantee therefore agree as follows:

        1.      GRANT OF OPTION; OPTION TERM. Subject to the terms and
conditions herein, the Company grants to the Grantee during the period
commencing on the Effective Grant Date and expiring at 5:00 p.m., Denver,
Colorado time ("Close of Business") on July 11, 2007, the tenth anniversary of
the Effective Grant Date (the "Option Term"), subject to earlier termination as
provided in paragraphs 8 and 12(b) below, an option to purchase from the
Company, at the price per share set forth on Schedule 1 hereto (the "Series A
Stock Option Price"), the number of shares of Series A Common Stock of the
Company ("Series A Stock") set forth on said Schedule 1 (the "Series A Stock
Option Shares"). The Series A Stock Option Price and Series A Stock Option
Shares are subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph 12 below. This option is
as a "Nonqualified Stock Option" and is hereinafter referred to as the "Series A
Stock Option".

        2.      GRANT OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. Subject to the terms and
conditions herein and in tandem with the Series A Stock Option, the Grantee
shall also have, during the Option Term, subject to earlier termination as
provided in paragraphs 8 and 12(b) below, a stock appreciation right with
respect to each Series A Stock Option Share (individually, a "Series A Stock
Tandem SAR" and





                                       1
<PAGE>   2
collectively, the "Series A Stock Tandem SARs"). Upon exercise of a Series A
Stock Tandem SAR in accordance with this Agreement, the Company shall, subject
to paragraph 6 below, make payment as follows:

                (a)     the amount of payment shall equal the amount by which
        the Fair Market Value of the Series A Stock Option Share on the date of
        exercise of the Series A Stock Tandem SAR exceeds the Series A Stock
        Option Price; and

                (b)     payment of the amount determined in accordance with
        clause (a) shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee in
        shares of Series A Stock (valued at their Fair Market Value as of the
        date of exercise of such Series A Stock Tandem SAR), in cash, or partly
        in cash and partly in shares of Series A Stock.

        3.      REDUCTION UPON EXERCISE. The exercise of any number of Series A
Stock Tandem SARs shall cause a corresponding reduction in the number of Series
A Stock Option Shares which shall apply against the Series A Stock Option Shares
then available for purchase. The exercise of the Series A Stock Option to
purchase any number of Series A Stock Option Shares shall cause a corresponding
reduction in the number of Series A Stock Tandem SARs.

        4.      CONDITIONS OF EXERCISE; VESTING. The Series A Stock Option and
Series A Stock Tandem SARs are exercisable only in accordance with the
conditions stated in this paragraph.

                (a)     Except as otherwise provided in paragraph 12(b) below or
        in the last sentence of this subparagraph (a), the Series A Stock Option
        may only be exercised to the extent the Series A Stock Option Shares
        have become available for purchase in accordance with the following
        schedule:

</TABLE>

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Series A Stock Option Shares shall
        become available for purchase if during the Option Term Grantee's
        employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries (i) shall terminate by
        reason of (x) termination by the Company or any Subsidiary without cause
        (as defined in Section 11.2(b) of the Plan), (y) termination by Grantee
        for good reason (as defined herein) or (z) Disability, (ii) shall
        terminate pursuant to provisions of a written employment agreement, if
        any, between the Grantee and the Company which expressly permits the
        Grantee to terminate such employment upon the occurrence of specified


                                       2
<PAGE>   3
        events (other than the giving of notice and passage of time), or (iii)
        shall terminate because Grantee dies while employed by the Company or a
        Subsidiary.

                (b)     A Series A Stock Tandem SAR with respect to a Series A
        Stock Option Share shall be exercisable only if the Series A Stock
        Option Share is then available for purchase in accordance with
        subparagraph (a).

                (c)     To the extent the Series A Stock Option or Series A
        Stock Tandem SARs become exercisable, such Series A Stock Option or
        Series A Stock Tandem SARs may be exercised in whole or in part (at any
        time or from time to time, except as otherwise provided herein) until
        expiration of the Option Term or earlier termination thereof.

                (d)     Grantee acknowledges and agrees that the Committee may,
        in its discretion and as contemplated by Section 7.5 of the Plan, adopt
        rules and regulations from time to time after the date hereof with
        respect to the exercise of Series A Stock Tandem SARs and that the
        exercise by Grantee of the Series A Tandem SARs will be subject to the
        further condition that such exercise is made in accordance with all such
        rules and regulations as the Committee may determine are applicable
        thereto.

        5.      MANNER OF EXERCISE. The Series A Stock Option or a Series A
Stock Tandem SAR may be exercised only by delivering to the Company all of the
following and shall be considered exercised (as to the number of Series A Stock
Option Shares or Series A Stock Tandem SARs specified in the notice referred to
in subparagraph (a) below) on the later of (i) the date of exercise designated
in the written notice referred to in subparagraph (a) below (or if the date so
designated is not a business day, the first business day following such date) or
(ii) the first business day on which the Company has received all of the
following:

                (a)     Written notice, in such form as the Committee may
        require, stating that Grantee is exercising the Series A Stock Option
        and/or the Series A Stock Tandem SAR, setting forth the date of such
        exercise and designating, among other things, the date of exercise, the
        number of Series A Stock Option Shares to be purchased and/or the number
        of Series A Stock Tandem SARs to be exercised; the aggregate purchase
        price to be paid by Grantee (in the case of the exercise of Series A
        Stock Option Shares) and the manner in which such payment is being paid;

                (b)     If the Series A Stock Option is to be exercised, payment
        of the Series A Stock Option Price for each Series A Stock Option Share
        to be purchased in cash or in such other form, or combination of forms,
        of payment contemplated by Section 6.6(a) of the Plan as the Committee,
        in its sole discretion, may permit;

                (c)     Payment of, or other provision acceptable to the
        Committee for, any and all withholding taxes required to be withheld by
        the Company upon such exercise in accordance with paragraph 6 hereof;
        and


                                       3
<PAGE>   4
                (d)     Any other documentation that the Committee may
        reasonably require (including, without limitation, proof satisfactory to
        the Committee that the Award is then exercisable for the number of
        Series A Stock Option Shares or Series A Stock Tandem SARs).

        6.      MANDATORY WITHHOLDING FOR TAXES. It shall be a condition
precedent to any exercise of the Series A Stock Option Shares or the Series A
Stock Tandem SARs that Grantee make provision acceptable to the Company and in
accordance with the Plan for the payment or withholding of any and all federal,
state and local taxes and other amounts required to be withheld by the Company
to satisfy the tax liability associated with such exercise, as determined by the
Board.

        7.      DELIVERY BY THE COMPANY. As soon as practicable after receipt of
all items referred to in paragraph 5, and subject to the withholding referred to
in paragraph 6, the Company shall deliver to the Grantee certificates issued in
Grantee's name for the number of Series A Stock Option Shares purchased by
exercise of the Series A Stock Option and for the number of shares of Series A
Stock to which the Grantee is entitled by the exercise of Series A Stock Tandem
SARs and any cash payment to which the Grantee is entitled by the exercise of
Series A Stock Tandem SARs. If delivery is by mail, delivery of shares of Series
A Stock shall be deemed effected for all purposes when a stock transfer agent of
the Company shall have deposited the certificates in the United States mail,
addressed to the Grantee, and any cash payment shall be deemed effected when a
Company check, payable to Grantee and in an amount equal to the amount of the
cash payment, shall have been deposited in the United States mail, addressed to
the Grantee.

        8.      EARLY TERMINATION OF OPTION AND TANDEM SARS. Unless otherwise
determined by the Committee, in its sole discretion, the Series A Stock Option
and Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall terminate, prior to the expiration of the
Series A Stock Option Term, at the time specified below:

                (a)     If Grantee's employment with the Company and its
        Subsidiaries terminates (i) other than (x) by the Company for "cause"
        (as defined in Section 11.2(b) of the Plan) (see (d) below), (y) by the
        Grantee with "good reason" (as defined herein) (see (e) below) or (z) by
        the Company without cause (see (e) below), and (ii) other than (x) by
        reason of death or Disability (see (b) and (c) below), (y) with the
        written consent of the Company or the applicable Subsidiary (see (e)
        below) or (z) without such consent if such termination is pursuant to
        provisions of a written employment agreement (see (e) below), if any,
        between the Grantee and the Company which expressly permit the Grantee
        to terminate such employment upon the occurrence of specified events
        (other than the giving of notice and passage of time), then the Series A
        Stock Option and all Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall terminate at the
        Close of Business on the first business day following the expiration of
        the 90-day period which began on the date of termination of Grantee's
        employment;

                (b)     If Grantee dies while employed by the Company or a
        Subsidiary, or prior to the expiration of a period of time following
        termination of Grantee's employment during which the Series A Stock
        Option and Series A Stock Tandem SARs remain exercisable as


                                       4
<PAGE>   5
        provided in paragraph (a), the Series A Stock Option and all Series A
        Stock Tandem SARs shall terminate at the Close of Business on the first
        business day following the expiration of the one-year period which began
        on the date of death;

                (c)     If Grantee's employment with the Company and its
        Subsidiaries terminates by reason of Disability, then the Series A Stock
        Option and all Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall terminate at the Close
        of Business on the first business day following the expiration of the
        one-year period which began on the date of termination of Grantee's
        employment;

                (d)     If Grantee's employment with the Company and its
        Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company for "cause" (as defined in
        Section 11.2(b) of the Plan), then the Series A Stock Option and all
        Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall terminate immediately upon such
        termination of Grantee's employment; or

                (e)     If Grantee's employment (i) is terminated by Grantee (x)
        with "good reason" (as defined herein), (y) with the written consent of
        the Company or the applicable Subsidiary or (z) pursuant to provisions
        of a written employment agreement, if any, between the Grantee and the
        Company which expressly permit the Grantee to terminate such employment
        upon the occurrence of specified events (other than the giving of notice
        and passage of time), or (ii) by the Company without "cause" (as defined
        in Section 11.2(b) of the Plan), then the Series A Stock Option Term
        shall terminate early only as provided for in paragraph 8(b) above or
        12(b) below or as provided pursuant to the terms of any such written
        employment agreement.

                In any event in which the Series A Stock Option and Series A
Stock Tandem SARs remain exercisable for a period of time following the date of
termination of Grantee's employment as provided above, the Series A Stock Option
and Series A Stock Tandem SARs may be exercised during such period of time only
to the extent the same were exercisable as provided in paragraph 4 above on such
date of termination of Grantee's employment. A change of employment is not a
termination of employment within the meaning of this paragraph 8 provided that,
after giving effect to such change, the Grantee continues to be an employee of
the Company or any Subsidiary. Notwithstanding any period of time referenced in
this paragraph 8 or any other provision of this paragraph to the contrary, the
Series A Stock Option and all Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall in any event
terminate upon the expiration of the Option Term.

                "Good reason" for purposes of the Agreement shall be deemed to
have occurred upon the happening of any of the following:

                (i)     any reduction in Grantee's annual rate of salary;

                (ii)    either (x) a failure of the Company to continue in
        effect any employee benefit plan in which Grantee was participating or
        (y) the taking of any action by the Company that would adversely affect
        Grantee's participation in, or materially reduce Grantee's benefits
        under, any such employee benefit plan, unless such failure or such


                                       5
<PAGE>   6
        taking of any action, adversely affects the senior members of the
        corporate management of the Company generally;

                (iii)   the assignment to Grantee of duties and responsibilities
        that are materially more oppressive or onerous than those attendant to
        Grantee's position immediately after the date hereof;

                (iv)    the relocation of the office location as assigned to
        Grantee by the Company to a location more than 20 miles from Grantee's
        then current location without Grantee's consent; or

                (v)     the failure of the Company to obtain, prior to the time
        of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, disposition of all or
        substantially all of the assets of the Company or similar transaction
        effective after the date hereof, in which the Company is not the
        surviving person, the unconditional assumption in writing or by
        operation of law of the Company's obligations to Grantee under this
        Agreement by each direct successor to the Company in any such
        transaction.

        9.      AUTOMATIC EXERCISE OF SERIES A STOCK TANDEM SARS. Immediately
prior to the termination of the Series A Stock Option, as provided in paragraph
8 above, or the expiration of the Option Term, all remaining Series A Stock
Tandem SARs shall be deemed to have been exercised by the Grantee.

        10.     NONTRANSFERABILITY OF SERIES A STOCK OPTION AND SERIES A STOCK
TANDEM SARS. During Grantee's lifetime, the Series A Stock Option and Series A
Stock Tandem SARs are not transferable (voluntarily or involuntarily) other than
pursuant to a domestic relations order and, except as otherwise required
pursuant to a domestic relations order, are exercisable only by the Grantee or
Grantee's court appointed legal representative. The Grantee may designate a
beneficiary or beneficiaries to whom the Series A Stock Option and Series A
Stock Tandem SARs shall pass upon Grantee's death and may change such
designation from time to time by filing a written designation of beneficiary or
beneficiaries with the Committee on the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B or such
other form as may be prescribed by the Committee, provided that no such
designation shall be effective unless so filed prior to the death of Grantee. If
no such designation is made or if the designated beneficiary does not survive
the Grantee's death, the Series A Stock Option and Series A Stock Tandem SARs
shall pass by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Following Grantee's
death, the Series A Stock Option and any Series A Stock Tandem SARs, if
otherwise exercisable, may be exercised by the person to whom such option or
right passes according to the foregoing and such person shall be deemed the
Grantee for purposes of any applicable provisions of this Agreement.

        11.     NO SHAREHOLDER RIGHTS; NO GUARANTEE OF EMPLOYMENT.

                (a)     The Grantee shall not be deemed for any purpose to be,
        or to have any of the rights of, a stockholder of the Company with
        respect to any shares of Series A Stock as to


                                       6
<PAGE>   7
        which this Agreement relates until such shares shall have been issued to
        Grantee by the Company. Furthermore, the existence of this Agreement
        shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company or its
        stockholders to accomplish any corporate act, including, without
        limitation, the acts referred to in Section 11.17 of the Plan.

                (b)     Nothing contained in this Agreement, and no action by
        the Company or the Committee with respect hereto, shall confer or be
        construed to confer on Grantee any right to continue in the employ of
        the Company or any Subsidiary or interfere in any way with the right of
        the Company or any employing Subsidiary to terminate Grantee's
        employment at any time, with or without "cause."

        12.     ADJUSTMENTS.

                (a)     The Series A Stock Option and Series A Stock Tandem SARs
        shall be subject to adjustment (including, without limitation, as to the
        number of Series A Stock Option Shares and the Series A Stock Option
        Price per share) in the sole discretion of the Committee and in such
        manner as the Committee may deem equitable and appropriate in connection
        with the occurrence of any of the events described in Section 4.2 of the
        Plan following the Effective Grant Date; provided, however, that
        adjustments shall be made to the Series A Stock Option if, and in the
        same manner that, adjustments are being made in connection with the
        occurrence of any such event to any other option granted under the Plan.
        Adjustments to the Option Price shall be made on a per share basis so
        that the aggregate remaining Series A Stock Option Price is unchanged.

                (b)     In the event of any Approved Transaction, Board Change
        or Control Purchase, the Series A Stock Option and all Series A Stock
        Tandem SARs shall become exercisable in full without regard to paragraph
        4(a); provided, however, that to the extent not theretofore exercised
        the Series A Stock Option and all Series A Stock Tandem SARs shall
        terminate upon the first to occur of the consummation of the Approved
        Transaction, the expiration of the Series A Stock Option Term or the
        earlier termination of the Series A Stock Option and Series A Stock
        Tandem SARs pursuant to paragraph 8 hereof. Notwithstanding the
        foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, determine that the
        Series A Stock Option and Series A Stock Tandem SARs will not become
        exercisable on an accelerated basis in connection with an Approved
        Transaction and/or will not terminate if not exercised prior to
        consummation of the Approved Transaction, if the Board or the surviving
        or acquiring corporation, as the case may be, shall have taken or made
        effective provision for the taking of such action as in the opinion of
        the Committee is equitable and appropriate to substitute a new Award for
        the Award evidenced by this Agreement or to assume this Agreement and
        the Award evidenced hereby and in order to make such new or assumed
        Award, as nearly as may be practicable, equivalent to the Award
        evidenced by this Agreement as then in effect (but before giving effect
        to any acceleration of the exercisability hereof unless otherwise
        determined by the Committee), taking into account, to the extent
        applicable, the kind and amount of securities, cash or other assets into
        or for which the Series A Stock may be changed, converted or exchanged
        in connection with the Approved Transaction.


                                       7
<PAGE>   8
        13.     RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY LAW. Grantee acknowledges that neither
the Series A Stock Option nor any of the Series A Stock Option Shares has been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933 and that the Series A Stock Option
Shares may not be transferred in the absence of such registration or the
availability of an exemption therefrom under such Act or the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission promulgated thereunder.
Neither the Company nor any other person shall have any obligation to register
any Series A Stock Option Shares, or any transfer of Series A Stock Option
Shares, under the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or
any other state or federal securities law. Certificates representing Series A
Stock Option Shares purchased by Grantee hereunder may bear such restrictive and
other legends as counsel for the Company shall require in order to insure
compliance with any such law or any rule or regulation promulgated thereunder.
Without limiting the generality of Section 11.9 of the Plan, the Grantee agrees
that Grantee will not exercise the Series A Stock Option or any Series A Stock
Tandem SAR and that the Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of
Series A Stock or make any cash payment, if counsel to the Company determines
that such exercise, delivery or payment would violate any applicable law or any
rule or regulation of any governmental authority or any rule or regulation of,
or agreement of the Company with, any securities exchange or association upon
which the Series A Stock is listed or quoted. The Company shall in no event be
obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of the
Series A Stock Option or any Series A Stock Tandem SAR or the resulting delivery
of shares of Series A Stock or other payment to comply with any such law, rule,
regulation or agreement.

        14.     NOTICE. Unless the Company notifies the Grantee in writing of a
different procedure, any notice or other communication to the Company with
