            THIRD AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT, LIMITED CONSENT AND
                              ASSUMPTION AGREEMENT

      THIS THIRD AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT, LIMITED CONSENT AND ASSUMPTION
AGREEMENT (this "Amendment"), dated as of November 14, 2001, is among BASTET
BROADCASTING, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Bastet"), MISSION BROADCASTING OF
WICHITA FALLS, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Mission Wichita Falls" and
together with Bastet, collectively, the "Original Borrowers"), MISSION
BROADCASTING OF JOPLIN, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Mission Joplin" and
together with the Original Borrowers, collectively, the "Borrowers"), the
several Banks (as such term is defined in the hereinafter described Credit
Agreement) parties to this Amendment, and BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as
Administrative Agent for the Banks (in such capacity, the "Administrative
Agent").

                                R E C I T A L S:

      A. The Original Borrowers are parties to a Credit Agreement dated as of
January 12, 2001 (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as
of May 17, 2001, the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of June 14,
2001, and as the same may be further amended, modified, restated, supplemented,
renewed, extended, increased, rearranged and/or substituted from time to time,
the "Credit Agreement") among the Original Borrowers, the Administrative Agent,
Barclays Bank PLC, as Syndication Agent, First Union National Bank, as
Documentation Agent, and the several Banks from time to time parties thereto.
Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

      B. Each of the Original Borrowers is a direct Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of
David Smith ("Smith").

      C. Subsequent to the date of the Credit Agreement, Smith formed Mission
Joplin as a Wholly-Owned Subsidiary.

      D. The Original Borrowers and Mission Joplin have requested that Mission
Joplin be added as a "Borrower" under the Credit Agreement, as such term is
defined therein, subject to all liabilities and entitled to all privileges of a
Borrower thereunder, in exchange for Mission Joplin's assumptions of all
Obligations thereunder.

      E. In addition, the Borrowers have advised the Administrative Agent that
they wish to effect the following transactions (the "Proposed Transactions"):

            (i) the purchase by Mission Joplin of commercial television
      broadcast station KODE-TV, Joplin, Missouri (the "Station") and all
      related assets necessary to operate the Station (collectively, the
      "Specified Assets"), from GOCOM Broadcasting of Joplin, LLC, a Delaware
      limited liability company and GOCOM of Joplin License Sub, LLC, a

<PAGE>

      Delaware limited liability company (collectively, the "Sellers") for an
      aggregate cash purchase price not to exceed $14,000,000, upon and subject
      to the terms and conditions of a purchase and sale agreement and related
      documents, each substantially in the form previously provided by the
      Borrowers to the Administrative Agent (the "Asset Purchase Documents", and
      the purchase of the Specified Assets, the "Proposed Asset Purchase");

            (ii) the execution, delivery and performance by Mission Joplin and
      the Sellers of a Time Brokerage Agreement with respect to the Station,
      substantially in the form previously provided by the Borrowers to the
      Administrative Agent (the "KODE TBA" ); and

            (iii) the execution, delivery and performance by Mission Joplin and
      Nexstar Broadcasting of Joplin L.L.C. ("Nexstar Joplin") of a Shared
      Services Agreement with respect to the Station, substantially in the form
      previously provided by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent (the
      "KODE SSA").

      F. The written consent of Majority Banks is required prior to the
consummation of the Proposed Transactions pursuant to Section 8.04(d) of the
Credit Agreement inasmuch as the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio immediately
prior to the consummation of such transactions is greater than 5:00:1:00.

      G. Accordingly, the Borrowers have further requested that the Banks (i)
consent to the consummation of the Proposed Transactions and (ii) in connection
therewith, increase the Aggregate Commitments under the Credit Agreement from
$43,000,000 to $58,000,000, in each case as more fully set forth herein.

      H. The several Banks party to this Amendment are willing to consent to the
Proposed Transactions and to amend the Credit Agreement as set forth herein,
subject in each case to the performance and observance in full of each of the
terms and conditions and in reliance upon the representations and warranties of
the Borrowers set forth hereinbelow.

conditions, representations and warranties herein contained, the parties hereto
agree hereby as follows:

      required by the immediately preceding sentence with respect to any
      assignment that any Bank may from time to time make to any Affiliate or
      any Related Fund of such Bank or any assignment that any Bank may from

      other Bank provided that the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent are
      each given at least three (3) Business Days' written notice prior to the
      effective date of such assignment."
