      Concurrently, the Company has entered into a separate purchase agreement
(the "MG Purchase Agreement") for the sale of an aggregate of 45,000 of the
Company's Series A Cumulative Preference Shares (the "Series A Preference
Shares") and 45,000 Warrants (the MG Warrants") to purchase and aggregate of

Securities."

      The holders of Preference Shares and the Series A Preference Shares will
be entitled to the benefits of a Registration Rights Agreement, in substantially
the form attached hereto as Exhibit C with such changes as shall be agreed to by
the parties hereto and the MG Purchaser (the "Preference Registration Rights
Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company will file a registration statement

Commission (the "Commission") registering the Preference Shares and the Series A
Preference Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act").

the benefits of a Preference Warrant Registration Rights Agreement in

be agreed to by the parties hereto and the MG Purchaser (the "Preference Warrant
Registration Rights Agreement") which provides for the registration of the
Preference Warrants and the MG Warrants under the 1933 Act under certain
circumstances set forth therein.

      Pursuant to the terms of the Preference Securities, investors that acquire

Securities if such Preference Securities are hereafter registered under the 1933
Act or if an exemption from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act is
available (including the exemption afforded by Rule 144A ("Rule 144A") of the
rules and regulations promulgated under the 1933 Act by the Commission).

      The Company has prepared and will deliver to the Chase Purchasers, on the

      SECTION 1. Representations and Warranties.

      (a) Representations and Warranties by the Company. The Company represents
and warrants to the Chase Purchasers as of the date hereof and as of the Closing
Time referred to in Section 2(b) hereof, and agrees with the Chase Purchasers as
follows:

            (i) Similar Offerings. The Company and its Affiliates (as defined in
      Section 1(a)(xxxv)) have not, directly or indirectly, solicited any offer
      to buy or offered to sell, and will not, directly or indirectly, solicit
      any offer to buy or offer to sell, in the United States or to any United
      States citizen or resident, any security which is or would be integrated
      with the sale of the Preference Securities in a manner that would require
      the Preference Securities to be registered under the 1933 Act.

            (ii) Preference Offering Memorandum. Neither of its date nor as of
      the Closing Time the Preference Offering Memorandum, including any
      amendment or supplement thereto, includes or will include an untrue
      statement of a material fact or omits or will omit to state a material
      fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of
      the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

            (iii) Independent Accountants. The accountants who certified the
      financial statements and supporting schedules included in the Preference
      Offering Memorandum are independent certified public accountants with
      respect to the Company and its subsidiaries within the meaning of

            (iv) Financial Statements. The financial statements, together with
      the related schedules and notes, of the Company included in the Preference

      and its consolidated subsidiaries at the dates indicated and the statement
      of operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows of the Company and its
      consolidated subsidiaries for the periods specified; said financial
      statements have been prepared in conformity with United States generally
      accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") applied on a consistent basis
      throughout the periods involved. The supporting schedules, if any,
      included in the Preference Offering Memorandum present fairly in
      accordance with GAAP the information required to be stated therein. The
      selected financial data and the summary financial information included in
      the Preference Offering Memorandum present fairly the information shown
      therein and have been compiled on a basis consistent with that of the
      audited financial statements included in the Preference Offering
      Memorandum.

            (v) No Material Adverse Change in Business. Since the respective
      dates as of which information is given in the Preference Offering
      Memorandum, except as otherwise stated therein, (A) there has been no
      material adverse change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in
      the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the Company and
      its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise (a "Material Adverse
      Effect"), whether or not arising in the ordinary course of business, (B)
      there have been no transactions entered into by the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries, other than transactions entered into in the ordinary course
      of business, which are material with respect to the Company and its

      dividend or distribution of any kind declared, paid or made by the Company
      on any class of its capital stock.

      organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under
      the laws of the State of Delaware and has corporate power and authority to

      Agreement, the Preference Registration Rights Agreement, the Preference
      Warrant Registration Rights Agreement, the Certificate of Designation, the
      Note Securities, the Note Agreements, and the Preference Securities; and
      the Company is duly qualified as a foreign corporation to transact
      business and is in good standing in each other jurisdiction in which such
      qualification is required, whether by reason of the ownership or leasing
      of property or the conduct of business, except where the failure so to
      qualify or to be in good standing would not result in a Material Adverse
      Effect.

            (vii) Corporate Standing of Designated Subsidiaries. Each subsidiary
      of the Company that (i) is a "significant subsidiary" (as that term is
      defined in Regulation S-X under the 1933 Act) or (ii) that holds any valid

      United Kingdom is listed on Schedule C hereto (each subsidiary listed on
      Schedule C hereto is hereinafter referred to as a "Designated Subsidiary"
      and, collectively, the "Designated Subsidiaries"), and has been duly

      outstanding capital stock of each Designated Subsidiary has been duly
      authorized and validly issued, is fully paid and non-assessable and is
      owned by the Company, directly or through subsidiaries, free and clear of
      any security interest, mortgage, pledge, lien, encumbrance, claim or

      company, any statutory liability for taxes, (ii) the pledge of 3,583,457
      shares of Polska Telewizja Kablowa Warszawa S.A. and of 2,514,291 shares
      of Polska Telewizja Kablowa Krakow S.A. held by Poland Cablevision

      with respect to the sellers of those shares (collectively, the "Share
      Pledges"); none of the outstanding shares of capital stock of the
      Designated Subsidiaries was issued in violation of any preemptive or

      by-laws (or other similar organizational documents) of any Designated
      Subsidiary or under any agreement to which the Company or any Designated
      Subsidiary is a party. The subsidiaries of the Company other than the
      Designated Subsidiaries, considered in the aggregate as a single
      subsidiary, do not constitute a "significant subsidiary" as defined in
      Rule 1-02 of Regulation S-X.

      of others with respect to any Intellectual Property or of any facts or

      inadequate to protect the interest of the Company or any of its
      subsidiaries therein, and which infringement or conflict (if the subject
      of any unfavorable decision, ruling or finding) or invalidity or
      inadequacy, singly or in the aggregate, would result in a Material Adverse
      Effect.

      Agreement, the Note Registration Rights Agreement, and the Note Warrant
      Registration Rights Agreement.

            (xxviii) Possession of Licenses and Permits. Except as disclosed in

      Licenses") issued by the appropriate domestic or foreign regulatory
      agencies or bodies, other governmental authorities or self regulatory
      organizations necessary to conduct the business now operated by them or
      any business currently proposed to be conducted by them as described in
      the Preference Offering Memorandum; the Company and its subsidiaries,
      except as disclosed in the Preference Offering Memorandum and except where
      the failure to so comply would not, singly or in the aggregate, have a
      Material Adverse Effect, are in compliance with the terms and conditions
      of all such Governmental Licenses; all of the Governmental Licenses are
      valid and in full force and effect, except as disclosed in the Preference
      Offering Memorandum and except when the invalidity of such Governmental
      Licenses or the failure of such Governmental Licenses to be in full force
      and effect would not have a Material Adverse Effect; and except as
      disclosed in the Preference Offering Memorandum, neither the Company nor
      any of its subsidiaries has received any notice of proceedings relating to
      the revocation or modification of any such Governmental Licenses which,
      singly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision,
      ruling or finding, would result in a Material Adverse Effect. To the
      knowledge of the Company, except as described in the Preference Offering
      Memorandum, there exists no reason or cause that could justify the
      variation, suspension, cancellation or termination of any such
      Governmental Licenses held by the Company or any of its subsidiaries with
      respect to the construction or operation of their respective businesses,
      which variation, suspension, cancellation or termination could reasonably

      Offering Memorandum, if it were a prospectus filed as part of a

      except such as (a) are described in the Preference Offering Memorandum or

      class if, as a result of the doctrine of "integration" referred to in Rule
      502 under the 1933 Act, such offer or sale would render invalid (for the
      purpose of the sale of the Preference Securities by the Company to the
      Chase Purchasers the exemption from the registration requirements of the
      1933 Act provided by Section 4(2) thereof or otherwise.

            (iii) Rule 144A Information. The Company agrees that, in order to
      render the Preference Securities eligible for resale pursuant to Rule 144A
      under the 1933 Act, while any of the Preference Securities remain
      outstanding, it will make available, upon request, to any holder of
      Preference Securities or prospective purchasers of Preference Securities
      the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4), unless the Company furnishes
      information to the Commission pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934
      Act (such information,


                                      -24-
<PAGE>

      whether made available to holders or prospective purchasers or furnished
      to the Commission, is herein referred to as "Additional Information").

      (d) Resales. The Chase Purchasers understand that the Preference
Securities have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act and may
not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or
benefit of, U.S. persons except pursuant to an exemption from the registration
requirements of the 1933 Act. Each Chase Purchaser represents and agrees, that
it will offer and sell Preference Securities at any time only in accordance with
an applicable exemption from the registration provisions of the 1933 Act. Each
Chase Purchaser agrees that, at or prior to confirmation of a sale of Preference
Securities it will have sent to each distributor, dealer or person receiving a
selling concession, fee or other remuneration that purchases Preference
Securities from it or through it during the restricted period a confirmation or
notice to substantially the following effect:

            "The securities covered hereby have not been registered under the
            United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") and may
            not be offered or sold within the United States or to or for the
            account or benefit of U.S. persons as part of their distribution at
            any time except in accordance with an exemption from the
            registration requirements of the Securities Act."

      (e) Offers and Sales in Poland and The Netherlands. Each Chase Purchaser
has advised the Company and hereby represents and warrants to and agrees with
the Company that it will not offer or sell the Preference Securities in Poland
except in accordance with Polish foreign exchange regulations under
circumstances which do not constitute a public offering or distribution of
securities under Polish laws and regulations. Each Chase Purchaser further
agrees it will not offer or sell the Preference Securities in The Netherlands
except under circumstances which do not constitute a public offering or
distribution (aanbod buiten besloten kring) of securities under the laws and
regulations of The Netherlands.

      (f) Offers and Sales in the United Kingdom. Each Chase Purchaser hereby
represents, warrants and agrees that (i) it has not offered or sold and prior to
the expiration of the period six months after the date of issue of the
Preference Securities will not offer to sell by means of any document any
Preference Securities to persons in the United Kingdom except to persons whose
ordinary activities involve them in acquiring, holding, managing or disposing of

      SECTION 7. Indemnification.

      (a) Indemnification of the Chase Purchasers. The Company agrees to
indemnify and hold harmless each of the Chase Purchasers and each person, if
any, who controls the Chase Purchasers within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act as follows:

            (i) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
      whatsoever, as incurred, arising out of any untrue statement or alleged
      untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Preference Offering
      Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), or the omission or
      alleged omission therefrom of a material fact necessary in order to make
      the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they
      were made, not misleading;

            (ii) against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense
      whatsoever, as incurred, to the extent of the aggregate amount paid in
      settlement of any litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any
      governmental agency or body, commenced or threatened, or of any claim
      whatsoever based upon any such untrue statement or omission, or any such
      alleged untrue statement or omission; provided that (subject to Section
      7(d) below) any such settlement is effected with the written consent of
      the Company; and

            (iii) against any and all expense whatsoever, as incurred (including
      the fees and disbursements of counsel chosen by the Purchaser), reasonably
      incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation,
      or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body,
      commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such
      untrue statement or omission, or any such alleged untrue statement or
      omission, to the extent that any such expense is not paid under (i) or
      (ii) above;

provided, however, that this indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss,
liability, claim, damage or expense to the extent arising out of any untrue
statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission made in reliance
upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the
Chase Purchasers or the Initial Purchasers expressly for use in the Preference
Offering Memorandum (or any amendment thereto) and provided further that this
indemnity agreement shall not apply to any loss, liability, claim, damage or
expense to the extent arising out of any untrue statement or omission or alleged
untrue statement or omission which 


                                      -26-
<PAGE>

was, at any time prior to the sales of the Preference Securities by the Chase
Purchaser, known or believed to be untrue or omitted by the Chase Purchaser
seeking indemnification.

      (b) Indemnification of the Company, Directors and Officers. Each Chase
Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each person, if
any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act
or Section 20 of the 1934 Act against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage
and expense described in the indemnity contained in subsection (a) of this
Section, as incurred, but only with respect to untrue statements or omissions,
or alleged untrue statements or omissions, made in the Preference Offering
Memorandum in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company by the Chase Purchasers expressly for use in the Preference
Offering Memorandum.

      (c) Actions Against Parties; Notification. Each indemnified party shall
give notice as promptly as reasonably practicable to each indemnifying party of
any action commenced against it in respect of which indemnity may be sought
hereunder, but failure to so notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such
indemnifying party from any liability hereunder to the extent it is not
materially prejudiced as a result thereof and in any event shall not relieve it
from any liability which it may have otherwise than on account of this indemnity
agreement. In the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(a) above,
counsel to the indemnified parties shall be selected by Arnold Chase, and, in
the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 7(b) above, counsel to the
indemnified parties shall be selected by the Company. An indemnifying party may
participate at its own expense in the defense of any such action; provided,
however, that counsel to the indemnifying party shall not (except with the
consent of the indemnified party) also be counsel to the indemnified party. In
no event shall the indemnifying parties be liable for fees and expenses of more
than one counsel (in addition to any local counsel) separate from their own
counsel for all indemnified parties in connection with any one action or
separate but similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of
the same general allegations or circumstances. No indemnifying party shall,
without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or
compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment with respect to any
litigation, or any investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or
body, commenced or threatened, or any claim whatsoever in respect of which
indemnification or contribution could be sought under this Section 7 or Section
8 hereof (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties
thereto), unless such settlement, compromise or consent (i) includes an
unconditional release of each indemnified party from all liability arising out
of such litigation, investigation, proceeding or claim and (ii) does not include
a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by
or on behalf of any indemnified party.

      (d) Settlement Without Consent if Failure to Reimburse. If at any time an
indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the
indemnified party for reasonable fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying
party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature
contemplated by Section 7(a)(ii) effected without its written consent if (i)
such settlement is entered into more than 45 days after receipt by such


                                      -27-
<PAGE>

indemnifying party of the aforesaid request, (ii) such indemnifying party shall
have received notice of the terms of such settlement at least 30 days prior to
such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall not
have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to
the date of such settlement.

      SECTION 8. Contribution. If the indemnification provided for in Section 7
hereof is for any reason unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an
indemnified party in respect of any losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
the aggregate amount of such losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses
incurred by such indemnified party, as incurred, (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one
hand and the Chase Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the
Preference Securities pursuant to this Agreement or (ii) if the allocation
provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the
Chase Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or
omissions which resulted in such losses, liabilities, claims, damages or
expenses, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

      The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the
Chase Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the
Preference Securities pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed to be in the
same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the
Preference Securities pursuant to this Agreement (before deducting expenses)
received by the Company and the total commission received by the Chase
Purchasers, bear to the aggregate initial offering price of the Preference
Securities.

      The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Chase Purchasers
on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any such untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or
omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information
supplied by the Company or by the Chase Purchasers and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission.

      The Company and the Chase Purchasers agree that it would not be just and
equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to above in this Section 8. The aggregate
amount of losses, liabilities, claims, damages and expenses incurred by an
indemnified party and referred to above in this Section 8 shall be deemed to
include any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, or any
investigation or proceeding by any governmental agency or body, commenced or
threatened, or any claim whatsoever based upon any such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.


                                      -28-
<PAGE>

      Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, the Chase Purchasers
shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
the total price at which the Preference Securities purchased by it and
distributed to the subsequent purchasers were offered to the subsequent
purchasers exceeds the amount of any damages which the Chase Purchasers has
otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue
statement or omission or alleged omission.

      No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

      For purposes of this Section 8, each person, if any, who controls the
Chase Purchasers within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20
of the 1934 Act shall have the same rights to contribution as the Chase
Purchasers, and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning
of Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act shall have the same
rights to contribution as the Company.

      SECTION 9. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.
All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement or in
certificates of officers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries submitted
pursuant hereto shall remain operative and in full force and effect, regardless
of any investigation made by or on behalf of the Chase Purchasers or controlling
person, or by or on behalf of the Company, and shall survive delivery of the
Preference Securities to the Chase Purchasers.

      SECTION 10. Termination of Agreement.

      (a) Termination; General. The Chase Purchasers may terminate this
Agreement, by notice to the Company, at any time at or prior to the Closing Time
(i) if there has been, since the time of execution of this Agreement or since
the respective dates as of which information is given in the Preference Offering
Memorandum, any material adverse change in the condition, financial or
otherwise, or in the earnings, business affairs or business prospects of the
Company and its subsidiaries considered as one enterprise, whether or not
arising in the ordinary course of business, or (ii) if there has occurred any
material adverse change in the financial markets in the United States, the
Republic of Poland or the international financial markets, any outbreak of
hostilities or escalation thereof or other calamity or crisis or any change or
development involving a prospective change in national or international
political, financial or economic conditions, or in Polish taxation affecting the
Company or any subsidiary thereof or the transactions contemplated by the
Preference Offering Memorandum, or currency exchange rates for the U.S. dollar
into the Polish Zloty or exchange controls applicable to the U.S. dollar or the
Polish Zloty, in each case the effect of which is such as to make it, in the
judgment of the Chase Purchasers, impracticable to market the Preference
Securities or to enforce contracts for the sale of the Preference Securities, or
(iii) if trading in any securities of the Company has been suspended or
materially limited by the Commission, or if trading generally on the American


                                      -29-

Stock Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange or in the Nasdaq National Market has
been suspended or materially limited, or minimum or maximum prices for trading
have been fixed, or maximum ranges for prices have been required, by any of said
exchanges or by such system or by order of the Commission, the National
Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or any other governmental authority, or
(iv) if a banking moratorium has been declared by Polish, United States Federal
or New York authorities.

      (b) Liabilities. If this Agreement is terminated pursuant to this Section,
such termination shall be without liability of any party to any other party
except as provided in Section 4 hereof, and provided further that Sections 1, 7,
8 and 9 shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect.

      SECTION 11. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall
be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, sent by
courier or express delivery company or transmitted by any standard form of
telecommunication. Notices to the Chase Purchasers shall be directed to the

attention of Robert E. Fowler, III.

      SECTION 12. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the Chase Purchasers and the Company and their respective
successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or
shall be construed to give any person, firm or corporation, other than the Chase
Purchasers and the Company and their respective successors and the controlling
persons and officers and directors referred to in Sections 7 and 8 and their
heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This
Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the
sole and exclusive benefit of the Chase Purchasers and the Company and their
respective successors, and said controlling persons and officers and directors
and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other
person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Preference Securities from the
Chase Purchasers shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such
purchase.

      SECTION 13. GOVERNING LAW AND TIME. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY
AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SPECIFIED
TIMES OF DAY REFER TO NEW YORK CITY TIME.

      SECTION 14. Effect of Headings. The Article and Section headings herein
