Buyer is in material breach of this Agreement, the Escrow Deposit shall be paid
to Seller as liquidated damages and as Seller's exclusive remedy for such breach
and any interest on the Escrow Deposit shall be paid to Buyer. If the Closing

this Section 1.5, to the extent practicable, shall be made on the Closing Date.

Closing Date, an adjustment and proration shall be made within 90 days of the
Closing Date.
 
        (b) Dispute Resolution. In the event of any disputes between the Parties
as to such adjustments, the amounts not in dispute shall nonetheless be paid at
the time provided in Section 1.5(a) and such disputes shall be determined by an
independent certified public accountant mutually acceptable to the Parties whose
determination shall be final, and the fees and expenses of such accountant shall
be paid one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer.

nine (9) months from the date the Form 314 is placed on the Commission's public
notice (through no fault of the terminating Party) or is denied by the
Commission by a Final Order;
 
(iv) Buyer, if any of the conditions set forth in Article VII shall have become
incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by Buyer, or if Seller
shall have breached in any material respect any of its representations,
warranties or obligations hereunder and such breach shall not have been cured in
all material respects or waived prior to the Closing; or
 
(v) Seller, if any of the conditions set forth in Article VIII shall have become
incapable of fulfillment, and shall not have been waived by Seller, or if Buyer
shall have breached in any material respect any of its representations,

        (b) In the event of the termination of this Agreement by Buyer or Seller

contemplated by this Agreement shall be terminated, without further action by
any Party. Nothing in this Section 2.3 shall be deemed to release any Party from
any liability for any breach by such Party of the terms and provisions of this
Agreement or to impair the right of Buyer to compel specific performance of
Seller of its obligations under this Agreement.
 
        (c) The time for Commission approval provided in Section 2.3(a)(iii)
notwithstanding, either Party may terminate this Agreement upon written notice
to the other, if, for any reason, the Assignment Application is designated for
hearing by the Commission, provided, however, that written notice of termination
must be given within twenty (20) days after release of the Hearing Designation
Order and that the Party giving such notice is not in default and has otherwise
complied with its obligations under this Agreement. Upon termination pursuant to
this Section, the Parties shall be released and discharged from any further
obligation hereunder and the Escrow Deposit shall be returned to the Buyer.
 
        (d) It is further provided, however, that no Party may terminate this
Agreement if such Party is in default hereunder, or if a delay in any decision
or determination by the Commission respecting the Assignment Application has
been caused or materially contributed to (i) by any failure of such Party to
furnish, file or make available to the Commission information within its
control; (ii) by the willful furnishing by such Party of incorrect, inaccurate
or incomplete information to the Commission; and (iii)

<PAGE>
<PAGE>


nation respecting the Assignment Application. Upon such termination for failure
of the Commission to act, the Parties shall be released and discharged from any
further obligation hereunder.
 
        (e) A Party shall be deemed to be in default under this Agreement only
if such Party has materially breached or failed to perform its obligations
hereunder, and non-material breaches or failures shall not be grounds for
declaring a Party to be in default, postponing the Closing, or terminating this
Agreement.

the Station Assets from fire or other casualty or cause shall be borne by Seller
at all times prior to the Closing Date hereunder. Upon the occurrence of any
loss or damage to any of the Station Assets as a result of fire, casualty,
accident or other causes prior to the Closing Date, Seller shall notify Buyer of
same in writing immediately stating with particularity the extent of loss or
damage incurred, the cause thereof if known and the extent to which restoration,
replacement and repair of the Station Assets lost or destroyed will be
reimbursed under any insurance policy with respect thereto. In the event the
loss exceeds $50,000 and the Station Assets cannot be substantially repaired or
restored within forty-five (45) days after such loss, Buyer shall have the
option, exercisable within ten (10) days after receipt of written notice from
Seller, to: (i) terminate this Agreement; (ii) postpone the Closing until such
time as the property has been completely repaired, replaced or restored to the
satisfaction of Buyer, unless the same cannot be reasonably effected within
thirty (30) days of notification; or (iii) elect to consummate the Closing and
accept the property in its damaged condition, in which event Seller shall assign
to Buyer all rights under any insurance claim covering the loss and pay over to
Buyer any proceeds under any such insurance policy thereto received by Seller
with respect thereto.
 
        2.5 Interruption of Broadcast Transmissions. Notwithstanding any other
provision hereof, if prior to the Closing any event occurs which prevents the
broadcast transmission by the Station with substantially full licensed power and
antenna height as described in the applicable FCC Licenses and in the manner it
has heretofore been operating for periods of time in excess of six (6) hours,
the Seller will give prompt written notice thereof to Buyer. If such facilities
are not restored so that operation is resumed with substantially full licensed
power within three (3) days of such event, or, in the case of more than one
event, the aggregate number of days preceding such restorations from all such
events is more than five (5) days, or if the Station is off the air more than
three (3) times for a period in each case exceeding six (6) hours, Buyer shall
have the right, by giving written notice to Seller of its election to do so, to
terminate this Agreement.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER 
 
        Seller represents and warrants to Buyer as follows:
 
        3.1 Due Incorporation. Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of West Virginia, and
is duly qualified to do business in and is in good standing in the State of West
Virginia. Seller has the corporate power and authority to own and to operate the
Station and the Station Assets.
 
        3.2 Authority; No Conflict. The execution and delivery of this Agreement
and the Non-compete Agreement have been duly and validly authorized and approved
by the board of directors of Seller, and Seller has the corporate power and
authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement and the Non-compete
Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.
Neither such execution, delivery or performance nor compliance by Seller with
the terms and provisions hereof, or with respect to the Non-compete Agreement,
will (assuming receipt of all necessary approvals from the Commission) conflict
with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or provisions of (a)
the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of Seller,(b) any judgment, order,
injunction, decree, regulation or ruling of any court or other governmental
authority to which Seller is subject, or (c) any material agreement, lease or
contract, written or oral, to which Seller is subject. This Agreement shall
constitute the valid and binding obligation of Seller with respect to the terms
hereof, subject to Commission approval of the transactions contemplated hereby.
 
        3.3 Government Authorizations.
 
        Section 1.1(a) of the Disclosure Schedule contains a true and complete
list of all the Licenses, which Licenses are sufficient for the lawful conduct
of the business and operation of the Station in the manner and to the full
extent they are currently conducted. Seller is the authorized legal holder of
the Licenses, none of which is subject to any restriction or condition which
would limit in any material respect the full operation of the Station as now
operated. There are no applications, complaints or proceedings pending or, to
the best of Seller's knowledge, threatened as of the date hereof before the
Commission or any other governmental authority relating to the business or
operations of the Station, other than applications, complaints or proceedings
which generally affect the broadcasting industry as a whole, and other than
reports and forms filed in the ordinary course of the Station's business. Seller
has delivered to Buyer true and complete copies of the Licenses, including any
and all additions, amendments and other modifications thereto. The Licenses are
in good standing, are in full force and effect and are unimpaired by any act 



<PAGE>
<PAGE>

or omission of Seller or its officers, directors or employees; and the operation
of the Station is in accordance with the Licenses and the underlying 
construction permits. No proceedings are pending or, to the knowledge of Seller,
are threatened which may result in the revocation, modification, non-renewal or
suspension of any of the Licenses, the denial of any pending applications, the
issuance of any cease and desist order, the imposition of any administrative
actions by the Commission with respect to the Licenses or which may affect
Buyer's ability to continue to operate the Station as it is currently operated.
Seller has taken no action which, to its knowledge, could lead to revocation or
non-renewal of the Licenses, nor omitted to take any action which, by reason of
its omission, could lead to revocation of the Licenses. All material reports,
forms and statements required to be filed with the Commission with respect to
the Station since the grant of the last renewal of the Licenses have been filed
and are complete and accurate. To the knowledge of Seller, there are no facts
which, under the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, or the existing rules
and regulations of the Commission, would disqualify Seller as assignor, and
Buyer as assignee, in connection with the Assignment Application.

<PAGE>
<PAGE>


        3.4 Compliance with Regulations. The operation of the Station is in
compliance in all material respects with (i) all applicable engineering
standards required to be met under Commission rules, and (ii) all other
applicable rules, regulations, requirements and policies of the Commission and
all other applicable governmental authorities, including, but not limited to,
ANSI Radiation Standards, to the extent required to be met under applicable
Commission rules and regulations; and there are no existing claims known to
Seller to the contrary.
 
        3.5 Taxes and Regulatory Fees. Seller has timely filed all federal,
state, local and foreign income, franchise, sales, use, property, excise,
payroll and other tax returns required by law and has paid in full all taxes,
estimated taxes, interest, assessments, and penalties due and payable as shown
thereon. All returns and forms which have been filed have been true and correct
in all material respects and no tax or other payment in a material amount other
than as shown on such returns and forms are required to be paid or have been
paid by Seller. There are no present disputes as to taxes of any nature payable
by Seller which in any event could materially adversely affect the Station
Assets or operation of the Station. Each of the parcels included in the Owned
Real Property is assessed for real estate purposes as a wholly independent tax
lot, separate from any adjoining lot or improvements not constituting a part of
such parcel. Seller has paid all FCC Regulatory Fees required to be paid by
Seller with respect to the Station.
 
        3.6 Personal Property. Section 1.1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule
contains a true and complete list of all the Personal Property. Except for those
assets designated on Section 1.1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule as being subject
to 

<PAGE>
<PAGE>


lease agreements, Seller owns and has, and will have on the Closing Date, good
and marketable title to such Personal Property, and none of such Personal
Property on the Closing Date will be subject to any security interest, mortgage,
pledge, conditional sales agreement or other lien or encumbrance. All items of
Personal Property are in all material respects in good operating condition,
ordinary wear and tear excepted, and are available for immediate use in the
conduct of the business and operation of the Station. The technical equipment,
including, without limitation, all transmitters and studio equipment,
constituting part of the Personal Property, has been maintained in accordance
with industry practice and is in good operating condition, ordinary wear and
tear excepted, (except as noted in Section 1.1(b) of the Disclosure Schedule)
and complies in all material respects with all applicable rules and regulations
of the Commission and the terms of the Licenses. The Personal Property includes
all such items and equipment necessary to conduct in all material respects the
business and operations of the Station as now conducted.

all of the buildings, structures and other improvements located thereon
(collectively, the "Owned Real Property") free and clear of all Title Defects
(as hereinafter defined) except for the matters listed on Section 3.7 of the
Disclosure Schedule and encumbrances of a minor nature that do not, in the
reasonable opinion of Buyer's counsel, individually or in the aggregate (i)

Real Property below the fair market value the Owned Real Property would have had

option, right of first refusal, easement, restrictive covenant, encroachment or
other survey defect, encumbrance or other restriction or limitation whatsoever.
Notwithstanding the cross-reference in Section 3.7 of the Disclosure Schedule to
the Certificate of Title, the deeds of trust discussed in Note 1 to the
Certificate of Title and the liens listed in Note 2 to the Certificate of Title
shall not be considered Permitted Owned Real Property Exceptions and must be
removed and released by Closing.
 
        (b) Section 1.1(d) of the Disclosure Schedule contains a true and
complete list and summary of all the Real Estate Contracts. Seller holds

Title Defects. The Real Estate Contracts constitute valid and binding
obligations of Seller and, to the best of Seller's knowledge, of all other
persons purported to be parties thereto, and are in full force and effect as of
the date hereof, and will on the Closing Date constitute valid and binding
obligations of Buyer and, to the best of Seller's knowledge, of all other
persons purported to be parties thereto. As of the date hereof, Seller is not in
default under any of the Real Estate Contracts and has not received or given
written notice of any default thereunder from or to any of the other parties
thereto and will not have received any such notice at or prior to the Closing
Date. Seller shall use reasonable efforts to obtain valid and binding
third-party consents, if any are necessary, from all required third parties to
the Real Estate Contracts to be conveyed and assigned to Buyer as part of the
Station Assets. Subject to any required third-party consents, Seller will have
full legal power and authority to assign its rights under the Real Estate
Contracts to Buyer in accordance with this Agreement on terms and conditions no
less favorable than those in effect on the date hereof, and such assignment
shall not affect the validity, enforceability and continuity of any of the Real
Estate Contracts.

continue to be used and operated in the manner currently being used and
operated, and any so-called hook-up fees or other associated charges have been
fully paid.
 
        (f) Real Property Permits and Insurance. All certificates of occupancy,
permits, licenses, franchises, approvals and authorizations (collectively, "Real
Property Permits") of all governmental authorities having jurisdiction over the
Real Property, required or appropriate to have been issued to Seller to enable
the Real Property to be lawfully occupied and used for all of the purposes for
which it is currently occupied and used have been lawfully issued and are, as of

Any further investigations recommended in the environmental reports obtained

        6.7 Consents to Assignment. To the extent that any Contract, Broadcast
Agreement, Trade Agreement, Real Estate Contract or other contract identified in
the Disclosure Schedule that is to be assigned under this Agreement is not
capable of being sold, assigned, transferred, delivered or subleased without the
waiver or consent of any third person withholding same (including a government
or governmental unit), or if such sale, assignment, transfer, delivery or
sublease or attempted sale, transfer, delivery or sublease would constitute a
breach thereof or a violation of any law or regulation, this Agreement and any
assignment executed pursuant hereto shall not constitute a sale, assignment,
transfer, delivery or sublease or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer,
delivery or sublease thereof. In those cases where consents, assignments,
releases and/or waivers have not been obtained at or prior to the Closing Date
to the transfer and assignment to Buyer of such contracts, Buyer may in its sole
discretion elect to have this Agreement and any assignments executed pursuant
hereto, to the extent permitted by law, constitute an equitable assignment by
Seller to Buyer of all of Seller's rights, benefits, title and interest in and
to such contracts, and where necessary or appropriate, Buyer shall be deemed to
be Seller's agent for the purpose of completing, fulfilling and discharging all
of Seller's rights and liabilities arising after the Closing Date under such
contracts. Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide Buyer with
the benefits of such contracts (including, without limitation, permitting Buyer
to enforce any rights of Seller arising under such contracts), and Buyer shall,
to the extent Buyer is provided with the benefits of such contracts, assume,
perform and in due course pay and discharge all debts, obligations and
liabilities of Seller under such contracts. The Parties recognize, however, that
the FCC licenses to be assigned under this Agreement may not be assigned without
the prior approval of the FCC and will not attempt to effectuate such an
assignment without the FCC's prior approval.
 
        6.8 Employee Matters. While under no obligation to hire any employees of
the Station, Buyer shall make reasonable efforts to offer employment at will to
certain employees of the Station. Upon review of a full list of employees and
salaries, Buyer shall notify Seller of (i) those employees to

<PAGE>
<PAGE>

whom it will so offer employment as soon as practicable and (ii) those employees
that Buyer intends to discharge not less than thirty (30) days prior to the
Closing Date. Seller shall be responsible for all salary and benefits of the
employees of the Station who do not accept, or are not offered, employment with
Buyer. Seller shall be responsible for all salary and other compensation due to
be paid for work for Seller for employees of the Station who become employees of
Buyer and Buyer shall be responsible for the salary and other compensation due
to be paid for work for Buyer on or after the date of hire by Buyer for such
employees. Seller shall be responsible for severance payments which may be
applicable under its employee benefit plans to any employees not so offered
employment and hired by Buyer.
 
        6.9 Survey. Buyer and Seller shall obtain, at Seller's expense, a survey
of each parcel of Real Property certified to Buyer or its permitted assigns and
the Title Company. The certification shall be by a Registered Land Surveyor and
shall be made on the ground in accordance with the minimum technical standards
of land surveying in West Virginia. The survey shall be delivered to Buyer at
least fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Date. If the survey shows: (i) the
Real Property does not have access to an abutting public road, (ii) easements
exist that are not approved by Buyer, (iii) violations of restrictions or
governmental zoning or building regulations, (iv) buildings, structures or other
improvements are constructed over any easement; provided that unless the
construction of a building, structure or other improvement over an easement
constitutes a violation of an easement it shall not constitute a defect or
encroachment, (v) any building, structure or other improvement is not entirely
within the boundaries of the applicable parcel of Real Property, (vi) any
drainage facilities are not entirely within the applicable parcel of Real
Property or appropriate public or private easements, or (vii) there are other
material encroachments, gaps or overlaps rendering title to the Real Property
unmarketable; then Buyer shall within seven (7) days of receipt of the survey
notify Seller in writing specifying the defects and encroachments reflected by
the survey, and Seller shall have ten (10) days within which to remove such
defects and encroachments.
