                                       2

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties recognize that WYZZ is, and at all times shall be, responsible for programming WYZZ-TV and nothing in this Agreement is intended to detract from that responsibility.

      2. Payment to WYZZ-TV. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, WYZZ shall continue to be the owner of and shall be entitled to all revenues resulting from the sale of advertising and other time on WYZZ-TV before, during and/or after the Term; provided, however, in consideration of the Services, Nexstar shall be entitled to all revenues resulting from the sale of advertising and other time on the Stations during the Term remaining after the payment of the amounts set forth below:

            (a) Within seventy-five (75) days following the end of each month of a calendar year during the Term that BCF (as defined below) for such month, when combined with BCF for all prior months during such calendar year (other than any month which is outside the Term) is less than the Minimum BCF, Nexstar shall pay a fee to WYZZ in an amount equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of BCF for such month. Within seventy-five (75) days following the end of each month of a calendar year during the Term that BCF for such month, when combined with BCF for all prior months of such calendar year (other than any month which is outside the Term) is greater than the Minimum BCF, Nexstar shall pay a fee to WYZZ in an amount equal to 50% of BCF for such month; provided, in the first month of each calendar year in which this sentence applies, the fee with respect to the portion of BCF for such month which, when combined with BCF for all prior months during such year (other than any month which is outside the Term) is exactly equal to the Minimum BCF, shall equal thirty-five percent (35%) of such portion rather than fifty percent (50%). The amount payable pursuant to either of the prior two sentences (sometimes referred to as the Section 2(a) Amount) shall be reduced by the sum of (A) 100% of any costs incurred by Nexstar during the applicable month in maintaining, replacing or purchasing capital equipment which is owned by WYZZ or which is used solely in connection with the operation of WYZZ-TV, which costs have not otherwise been deducted in calculating BCF, plus (B) 50% of the cost incurred by Nexstar during the applicable month in maintaining, replacing or purchasing capital equipment which is not owned by WYZZ and which is used in connection with the combined operation of both Stations (Combined Capital Equipment), which costs have not otherwise been deducted in calculating BCF. The Minimum BCF shall be Three Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,700,000) for calendar year 2002 and shall be increased on January 1, 2003 and on each January 1 thereafter in an amount equal to the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index (published by the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, Philadelphia Regional Office - All Urban Consumers for the United States - All Items) (the PI) over the prior year. During the Term, Nexstar shall calculate BCF (the BCF Report) for each calendar month. The last day of each calendar month is referred to herein as an End Date. During the Term, Nexstar shall, within thirty (30) days of each End Date deliver to WYZZ-TV the BCF Report for the month ending on such End Date. Within ninety (90) days following each

                                       3

calendar year during the Term, Nexstar shall notify WYZZ of the BCF for such year (the Final BCF Report) and, subject to clause (h) of this Section 2, within thirty (30) days after such notification either Nexstar shall make a payment to WYZZ or WYZZ shall make a payment to Nexstar, as appropriate to true-up the payments made hereunder based on (i) the final determination of the BCF for the entire year, and (ii) the principle that the aggregate Section 2(a) Amount for the calendar year should be equal to (x) thirty-five percent (35%) of BCF for such calendar year up to the Minimum BCF for such year, plus (y) fifty percent (50%) of BCF for such calendar year in excess of the Minimum BCF for such year, minus (z) the sum of one hundred percent (100%) of any costs incurred by Nexstar during such calendar year in maintaining, replacing or purchasing capital equipment which is owned by WYZZ or which is used solely in connection with the operation of WYZZ-TV, and fifty percent (50%) of any costs incurred by Nexstar during such calendar year in maintaining, replacing or purchasing capital equipment which is not owned by WYZZ and which is used in connection with the combined operation of both Stations (in each case to the extent such costs were not otherwise deducted in the calculation of BCF). Furthermore, for the purposes of clarification, to the extent the Section 2(a) Amount for the calendar year is less than zero, the true-up shall be done such that WYZZ shall have paid to Nexstar the amount by which the Section 2(a) Amount is less than zero. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein for purposes of the period commencing December 1, 2001 and ending December 31, 2001, the Minimum BCF shall be One Dollar ($1.00).

            (b) In addition to the payment of the Section 2(a) Amount, Nexstar agrees to pay WYZZ, within 30 days following each calendar month of the Term, the amount set forth on Exhibit B hereto with respect to such calendar month

            (c) On or before the 5th day of each calendar month during the Term, Nexstar shall pay to WYZZ the fair market value rent (as set forth on Exhibit C hereto) of any real property owned by WYZZ (or any affiliate thereof) and used by the Stations; provided, no rent shall be due to WYZZ, Nexstar or any affiliate thereof with respect to any period where the Stations are using corresponding real property owned by Nexstar (or any affiliate thereof). By way of example, no rent shall be due to WYZZ or Nexstar under this clause (c) for use by one of the Stations of a broadcast tower owned by WYZZ if the other Station is using a tower owned by Nexstar.

            (d) For purposes of this Agreement, the term BCF is defined as Net





Income of the Stations, determined on a basis in accordance with GAAP, plus the sum of (X) (in each case to the extent deducted in calculating Net Income) (i) depreciation expense (ii) amortization expense (including amortization of program assets and amortization of deferred and stock based compensation) (iii) interest expense (iv) corporate overhead or management fees (v) income tax expense (vi) non-cash losses or expenses (including losses on disposals of assets and trade/barter expenses) (vii) Section 2(a) Amount expenses pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof (viii) any expenses (other than

                                       4

electric costs relating to the digital transmission of either Station's primary commercial broadcast signal) related to either Station's DTV Spectrum (ix) costs or expenses arising from any claims relating to the period prior to the Effective Date, and (x) any expenses or costs identified on Exhibit D hereto less the sum of (Y) (i) cash payments for program contract rights relating to the Stations (ii) payments made by Nexstar to WYZZ pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2, to the extent not otherwise taken into account in calculating Net Income, (iii) the aggregate fair market value rent (as set forth on Exhibit C hereto) of any real property owned by either Nexstar or WYZZ (or any affiliate of either) and used by the Stations to the extent the Stations are not using corresponding real property owned by each of the parties hereto (or any affiliate thereof) and which is not otherwise taken into account in calculating Net Income, (iv) any other rental income earned by either WYZZ or Nexstar from real property owned or leased thereby to the extent included in calculating Net Income (v) interest income to the extent included in calculating Net Income (vi) any rent paid with respect to any capital leases of the Stations (vii ) any revenues related to either Station's DTV Spectrum and (viii) any non-cash gains or revenues (including gains on disposals of assets and trade/barter revenue).

            (e) At all times during the Term and for six (6) months following the termination of this Agreement, WYZZ shall have the right, upon prior written request to Nexstar, to review all of the books and records of Nexstar relating to the BCF Report and the Distributions. Any such review must take place during normal business hours between Monday through Friday.

            (f) The parties agree that, to the extent permitted by law and by the rules, regulations and policies of the FCC, the Stations shall be operated in a manner consistent with industry standards for commercial broadcast television stations providing general entertainment programming and with a view toward maximizing the combined broadcast cash flow of the Stations.

            (g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if, with respect to any month, the Section 2(a) Amount is a negative amount, then WYZZ shall pay such negative amount to Nexstar within seventy-five (75) days following the end of such month (and Nexstar shall make no payment of a Section 2(a) Amount to WYZZ with respect to such month); provided, with respect to each of the first three (3) months of the Term, the amount if any, payable pursuant to this clause (g) shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of accounts receivable retained by Buyer during such month pursuant to the first proviso to the last sentence of Section 10(d)(i).

            (h) On or prior to the 30th day after WYZZ's receipt of the Final BCF Report, WYZZ may give Nexstar a written notice (an Objection Notice) indicating its objections to the Final BCF Report. If WYZZ does not give Nexstar an Objection Notice within such 30-day period, then the Final BCF Report will be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. If WYZZ gives a timely Objection Notice, then Nexstar and

                                       5

WYZZ will negotiate in good faith to resolve their disputes regarding the Final BCF Report. If Nexstar and WYZZ are unable to resolve all disputes regarding the Final BCF Report on or prior to the 30th day after the Objection Notice is given, then Nexstar and WYZZ will retain a big five accounting firm (either by mutual agreement or by random choice after eliminating any such firm which is conflicted or otherwise unable to participate) (the Independent Accounting Firm) to resolve the dispute as soon as practicable, and in any event within thirty (30) days. The BCF for the applicable year as determined by the Independent Accounting Firm will be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto and will constitute the BCF for such year for all purposes of this Section 2; provided, the parties will use reasonable efforts to limit the scope of the Independent Accounting Firm's review. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm in connection with its review of the Final BCF Report shall be paid one-half by Nexstar and one-half by WYZZ.

            (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, cash payments for program content rights relating to the Stations which were contractually due prior to the Effective Date shall for all purposes be treated as relating to the period following the Effective Date if, and only if, such payments were ninety days or less past due as of the Effective Date.

                                       6

Schedule 10.a. contains a list and amount of all non-programming contractual commitments made by WYZZ prior to the Effective Time (other than cash commitments for commercial advertising time), but which are continuing obligations of WYZZ during the Term. In providing the Services, Nexstar shall honor all such commitments, as well as commitments for commercial advertising time to be aired on WYZZ-TV during the Term (for cash or trade) (collectively WYZZ Contracts); provided, Nexstar shall not honor any trade liabilities of either Station to the extent the aggregate trade liabilities of such Station as of the Effective Time exceeds by more than Twenty-Five Thousand Dollars ($25,000) the trade receivables of such Station as of the Effective Time.

      b. Sale Forces. In providing the Services, except upon notice to, and after consultation with WYZZ, Nexstar shall, at all times, maintain two separate sales forces (one for each of the Stations), each of which shall include account executives and sales managers, to sell national, regional, and local spot announcements and long form advertising programs.

      c. Employees.

            (i) Upon the earlier of (A) the date on which the operation of the Stations are consolidated in a single location and (B) January 1, 2002 (such earlier date sometimes referred to as the Hire Date), Nexstar shall offer employment to those employees of WYZZ-TV listed on Exhibit G hereto, at a comparable salary, position, and place of employment as held by each such employee immediately prior to the Effective Date (such employees who are given and accept such offers of employment are referred to herein as the Transferred Employees).

            (ii) Nexstar shall cause all Transferred Employees as of the Hire Date to be eligible to participate in any employee welfare benefit plans and employee pension benefit plans (as defined in Section 3(1) and 3(2) of ERISA, respectively) of Nexstar in which similarly situated employees of Nexstar are generally eligible to participate; provided, however, that, subject to length of service requirement waiting periods, vesting

                                       13

periods or similar requirements, all Transferred Employees and their spouses and dependents shall be eligible for coverage immediately after the Hire Date (and shall not be excluded from coverage on account of any preexisting condition) to the extent provided under such Plans with respect to the Transferred Employees.

            (iii) For purposes of any length of service requirements, waiting periods, vesting periods, or differential benefits based on length of service in any such plan for which a Transferred Employee may be eligible after the Hire Date, Nexstar shall insure that, to the extent permitted by law, service by such Transferred Employee with WYZZ shall be deemed to have been service with Nexstar. In addition, Nexstar shall insure that each Transferred Employee receives credit under any welfare benefit plan of Nexstar for any deductibles or co-payments paid by such Transferred Employee and his/her dependents for the current plan year under a plan maintained by WYZZ. Nexstar shall grant credit to each Transferred Employee for all sick leave in accordance with the policies of Nexstar applicable generally to its employees after giving effective service for WYZZ as service for Nexstar.

            (iv) From and after the Hire Date, Nexstar shall pay, discharge, and be responsible for all salary, wages, and benefits arising out of or relating to the employment of the Transferred Employees by Nexstar on and after the Hire Date.





      (d) Accounts Receivable.

            (i) As soon as practicable after the Effective Date hereof, WYZZ shall deliver to Nexstar a complete and detailed list of all the rights of WYZZ as of the Effective Date hereof to payment for the sale of advertising time and other goods and services by WYZZ-TV prior to the Effective Date hereof (the Accounts Receivable). During the one hundred eighty (180) day period following the Effective Date (the Collection Period), Nexstar shall use commercially reasonable efforts to collect the Accounts Receivable in the usual and ordinary course of business, using Nexstar's credit, sales and other appropriate personnel in accordance with customary practices, which are not required to include referral to a collection agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nexstar shall not be required to institute legal proceedings on WYZZ's behalf to enforce the collection of any Accounts Receivable. Nexstar shall not adjust any Accounts Receivable or grant credit with respect thereto without WYZZ's written consent, and Nexstar shall not pledge, secure or otherwise encumber such Accounts Receivable or the proceeds therefrom. Within twenty (20) days following the end of each full calendar month during the Collection Period, Nexstar shall furnish WYZZ with a report of all amounts collected, together with its check for payment thereof, with respect to the Accounts Receivable during such month; provided, that Nexstar shall be entitled to retain the first Three Hundred Ten Thousand Dollars ($310,000) (the Working Capital Amount) of amounts collected on the Accounts Receivable for the purpose of funding WYZZ-TV's share of the initial working capital needs of the Stations; provided further,

                                       14

that not later than the ninetieth (90th) day following the Effective Date, Nexstar shall pay to WYZZ the excess of the aggregate amount retained pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso over the aggregate reduction in payments otherwise due with respect to the first three months of the Term from WYZZ as a result of the proviso to Section 2(g) hereof.

            (ii) Any payments received by Nexstar during the Collection Period from any Person that is an account debtor with respect to any account disclosed in the list of Accounts Receivable delivered by WYZZ to Nexstar shall be applied (A) first against the invoice, if any, as specified by the account debtor and (B) second against an account disclosed in such list, unless and to the extent that the account is disputed by the account debtor; provided, with respect to clause (B) above, payments on any accounts specified on WYZZ's list which relate to account debtors with respect to which Nexstar also has accounts, shall be applied first against the oldest accounts of WYZZ and Nexstar. Except to the extent resulting from Nexstar's willful breach of the terms of this Section 10(d), Nexstar shall incur no liability to WYZZ for any uncollected account. During the Collection Period, neither WYZZ nor any other agent of WYZZ shall make any direct solicitation without Nexstar's written consent of the account debtors for payment.

      e. Proration. For purposes of this Agreement, revenues, expenses, and liabilities attributable to the Stations, including power and utilities charges, ad valorem property taxes, rents, income and sales taxes, and similar accruing, prepaid and deferred items, will be allocated in accordance with the principles that, as applicable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, (A) Nexstar and WYZZ will be allocated revenues earned or accrued, and expenses, costs and liabilities incurred in or allocable, with respect to the business and operation of the such entity's Station through but not including the Effective Date and following the last day of the Term, and (B) revenues earned or accrued, and expenses, costs and liabilities incurred in or allocable, with respect to the business and operation of the Stations on and after the Effective Date through the last day of the Term shall be allocated to the operation of the Stations under this Agreement and the calculation of BCF; provided, film costs relating to the period prior to the Effective Date shall be allocated to the period after the Effective Date to the extent such obligations were less than 90 days past due as of the Effective Date.

      f. Payment of Liabilities and Obligations. Except to the extent provided to the contrary herein, as of the Effective Date and during the Term Nexstar shall undertake to pay, discharge and perform on WYZZ's behalf all obligations and liabilities of WYZZ under the WYZZ Contracts to the extent that the obligations and liabilities relate to the time after the Effective Date with respect to WYZZ-TV, as well as WYZZ's obligation to any Transferred Employees for vacation time. Nexstar shall not be required to pay, discharge or perform any other obligations or liabilities of WYZZ including (i) any obligations or liabilities under the WYZZ Contracts relating to the period prior to the Effective Date for WYZZ-TV, (ii) any claims (whether asserted or not) or pending

                                       15

litigation or proceedings relating to the operation of WYZZ-TV prior to the Effective Date, (iii) any obligations or liabilities of WYZZ under any management incentive, employee pension, retirement, or other benefit plans, (iv) any obligations or liabilities of WYZZ under any collective bargaining agreements, (v) any obligation to any employee of WYZZ-TV for severance benefits or sick leave accrued prior to the Effective Date, (vi) any credit agreements, note purchase agreements, indentures, capital leases, or other financing arrangements, (vii) any agreements entered into other than in the ordinary course of business of WYZZ-TV, or (viii) any obligations or liabilities caused by, arising out of, or resulting from any action or omission of WYZZ prior to the Closing, and all such obligations and liabilities shall continue to be paid, discharged and performed by WYZZ. Notwithstanding anything herein to the





contrary, Nexstar shall be responsible pursuant to its reimbursement obligation hereunder for all film payments for programming which airs on WYZZ-TV to the extent such payments are not more than 90 days past due as of the Effective Date.

      g. Consultation on Material Contractual Obligations. In addition to the other restrictions contained herein, Nexstar shall not enter into any material contractual obligation with respect to WYZZ-TV without first consulting with WYZZ to determine whether or not WYZZ (or its affiliates) is able to obtain more favorable terms with respect to the subject matter of such contract.

      11. Mutual Covenants.

      a. Budget.

            (i) Not later than November 30 of each calendar year during the Term of this Agreement, WYZZ and Nexstar shall agree upon (1) an Operating Budget for the Stations (each an Annual Operating Budget) setting forth in reasonable detail the reasonable and necessary costs and expenses that Nexstar is expected to incur in performing its obligations hereunder during the upcoming calendar year, including, without limitation, the costs of all Nexstar personnel (including salaries, incentives, commissions, bonuses, benefits, and payroll services), property, equipment (including repairs and maintenance, office space, office space modifications, utilities, sales, marketing costs, and related costs, and (2) a revenue budget for the Stations (the Annual Revenue Budget and, together with the Annual Operating Budget, the Annual Budget) setting forth the projected sales revenues with respect to advertisements for the upcoming calendar year, as well as the assumptions underlying those projections; provided, in no event shall Nexstar have any right to object to the inclusion in the Annual Operating Budget of the cost of any programming which WYZZ determines is to be broadcast on WYZZ-TV, and in no event shall WYZZ have any right to object to the inclusion in the Annual Operating Budget of any programming which Nexstar determines is to be broadcast on WMBD-TV. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a part of the above-referenced budget approval process shall be the inclusion of proposed

                                       16

commissions or other incentive plans applicable to the sale of advertisements, which plans shall be subject to each Party's approval, as part of their approval of the Annual Operating Budget. The Annual Budget for the one month period beginning December 1, 2001 and Year 2002_ (the Initial Budget), is attached hereto as Exhibit H.

            (ii) For each year during the Term of this Agreement, the Parties shall cooperate in good faith and use their respective reasonable efforts to agree upon such changes, if any, to the Annual Budget for such year as are reasonably required to accurately reflect actual revenues generated and actual costs incurred during the six (6) month period ending June 30th. Each such revised Annual Budget, if required, shall be completed no later than October 31, of each year during the Term hereof.

            (iii) In the event that the Parties are unable to resolve any disputes regarding any Annual Budget by December 15 of each year during the Term hereof, and either Party has notified the other in writing of the basis for its inability to agree on such Annual Budgets, then, subject to the proviso to the first sentence of clause (i) of this Section 11(a), the disputed items in the Annual Budget for the next succeeding year shall be the same as such disputed items were in the Annual Budget for the immediately preceding year, except for costs (e.g., sales commissions) that vary as a result of revenue.

      b. Employees. Exhibit I contains a preliminary list of all employees, by position held by each, who are to be terminated from each of the Stations on such date as is mutually agreed by the parties on or after the Effective Time, but not later than March 1, 2002 (the Terminated Employees). All severance liabilities and all COBRA liabilities for any Terminated Employee terminated on or after the Effective Date shall be prorated between the Parties, in accordance with Section 4 hereof and Exhibit D hereto.

      c. Confidentiality. Each of the parties shall during and after the Term continue to be bound by the provisions of the Confidentiality Letter Agreement dated as of July 31, 2001.

      12. Transmitter Changes. In the event that either of the Parties, at any time, intends to file an application with the FCC to change the transmitter location, antenna height, power, or to change the frequency or hours of operation of its respective Station, the Parties agree to give ten (10) days prior written notice to the other Party of such proposed filing.

      13. Assignment. Except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or in the event that either Party sells or otherwise transfers its Station to another (in which case such Party shall be required to assign to the Buyer, and such Buyer shall be required to assume, this Agreement, in its entirety), neither Party hereto shall assign its rights or obligations under this Agreement to a third party without the express written consent of the other Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

                                       17

      14. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement





between the Parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all prior agreements, commitments, or any other understandings between WYZZ and the Nexstar with respect to such subject matter. No provision of this Agreement shall be changed or modified, nor shall this Agreement be discharged in whole or in part except by an agreement in writing signed by the Party against whom the change, modification, or discharge is claimed or sought to be enforced, nor shall any waiver of any of the conditions or provisions of this Agreement be effective and binding unless such waiver shall be in writing and signed by the Party against whom the waiver is asserted, and no waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or succeeding breach of the same or any other provision.

      15. Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in any number of counterparts with the same effect as if the signatures to each such counterpart were upon the same instrument.

      16. Notices. All notices required under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed given to an addressee when mailed if mailed by prepaid, certified, first class United States mail to the address for notice of such addressee set forth below:

Either Party hereto may specify for itself a different address for the giving of notice hereunder by giving ten (10) days prior written notice to the other Party of such address change pursuant to this paragraph.

      17. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Maryland, without regard to its choice of law rules.

      18. No Partnership or Joint Venture. This Agreement is not intended to be and shall not be construed as a partnership or joint venture agreement between the Parties. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement with regard to the services to be provided by Nexstar to WYZZ-TV, no Party to this Agreement shall be authorized to act as agent of or otherwise represent any other Party to this Agreement.

      19. Cooperation. The Parties shall use their best efforts in the performance and fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this Agreement in effectuating the intent of such Parties as expressed under this Agreement. From time to time, without further consideration, the Parties shall execute and deliver such other documents and take such other actions as either Party hereto reasonably may request to effectuate such intent.

      20. Arbitration. The Parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve all claims, disputes, and other disagreements arising out of or related to this Agreement. In the event that a dispute between the Parties cannot be resolved within thirty (30) days of written notice from one Party to the other Party, such dispute shall, at the request of either Party, after providing written notice to the other Party, be determined and settled by arbitration in Baltimore, Maryland, in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. 1 et seq., and the Maryland Uniform Arbitration Act, and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator shall be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The notice of arbitration shall specifically describe the claims, disputes, or other matters in issue to be submitted to arbitration. The Parties shall jointly select a single arbitrator who shall have the authority to hold hearings and to render a decision in accordance with the





                                       19

Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. If the Parties are unable to agree within ten (10) days, the arbitrator shall be selected by the Chief Judge of the Circuit Court for Baltimore City. The written decision of the arbitrator so appointed shall be conclusive and binding on the Parties and enforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction. The expenses of the arbitration shall be borne by the non-prevailing Party to the arbitration, including, but not limited to, the reasonable cost of experts, evidence, and legal counsel. Whenever the action is required to be taken under this Agreement within a specified period of time and the taking of such action is materially affected by a matter submitted to arbitration, such period shall automatically be extended by the number of days, plus ten (10), that are taken for the determination of that matter by the arbitrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties agree to use their best reasonable efforts to minimize the costs and frequency or arbitration hereunder. In addition, both Parties agree to use their best efforts to cause a final decision to be rendered with respect to the matters submitted to arbitration within sixty (60) days after its submission.

      21. Severability. It is the intent of the Parties that the transactions contemplated hereunder comply in all respects to applicable law, including, but not limited to, the Communications Act of 1934, and all applicable rules, regulations, and policies of the FCC. If any provision of this Agreement shall become void, illegal, or invalid because of a decision or other action by any governmental or judicial authority with jurisdiction thereof, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without such offending provision so long as such remainder substantially reflects in all material respects the original agreement of the Parties. In such event, the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement promptly on lawful substitute provisions in place of said offending provision to effectuate as nearly as possible their intent as expressed by this Agreement.

      22. Digital Spectrum. The FCC has authorized an additional 6 MHz of spectrum for digital television service (DTV Spectrum) to Nexstar for WMBD-TV and to WYZZ for WYZZ-TV. Except to the extent necessary to comply with law and the rules and regulations of the FCC with regard to the digital broadcast of the Stations' commercial broadcast schedules, each of the Parties shall retain all rights to utilize its DTV Spectrum in accordance with the rules and regulations of the FCC and shall bear all costs in connection with such use including, without limitation, any costs of equipment necessary for digital broadcasting.

      23. Further Assurances. WYZZ and Nexstar shall use commercially reasonable efforts in the performance and fulfillment of the terms and conditions of this Agreement in effectuating the intent of such Parties as expressed under this Agreement. From time to time, without further consideration, WYZZ and Nexstar shall execute and deliver such other documents and take such other actions as either Party hereto reasonably may request to effectuate such intent.

                                       20

      24. Termination.

      a. Termination by Nexstar. This Agreement may be terminated by Nexstar by written notice to WYZZ (i) any time upon six (6) months prior notice, (ii) on six (6) months prior notice following the sale of WYZZ-TV by WYZZ, and/or (iii) if Nexstar is not then in material default or breach hereof, and WYZZ is in material breach of its representations or its material obligations hereunder, and has failed to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of written notice from Nexstar; provided, no notice may be given pursuant to clause (i) of this section prior to the eighteen (18) month anniversary of the Effective Date.

      c. Termination due to invalidity or material change. Unless terminated pursuant to another provisions of this Agreement, this Agreement will terminate upon the first to occur of any of the following:

            (i) this Agreement is declared invalid or illegal in whole or substantial part by an order or decree of an administrative agency or court of competent jurisdiction and such order or decree has not been stayed or has become final and no longer subject to further administrative or judicial review;

            (ii) there has been a material change in FCC rules or policies that would cause this Agreement to be in violation thereof, and such change is in effect and not the subject of an appeal or further administrative or judicial review; provided, that in such event the Parties shall first negotiate in good faith and attempt to agree on an amendment to this Agreement that will provide the Parties with a valid, binding and enforceable agreement that conforms to the new FCC rules, policies or precedent; or

            (iii) the mutual, written consent of both Parties.

      d. Nexstar's Additional Termination Rights. Notwithstanding anything





herein to the contrary and in addition to Nexstar's termination rights in Section 24.a. above, Nexstar shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon the event that WYZZ makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, files or has filed against it a petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or an arrangement for the benefit of creditors, or

                                       21

for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar creditor's representative for the property or assets of WYZZ under any federal or state insolvency law, which if filed against WYZZ, has not been dismissed within thirty (30) days thereof.

      e. WYZZ's Additional Termination Rights. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary and in addition to WYZZ's termination rights in Section 24.b. above, WYZZ shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon the event that Nexstar makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, files or has filed against it a petition for bankruptcy, reorganization or an arrangement for the benefit of creditors, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar creditors' representative for the property or assets of Nexstar under any federal or state insolvency law, which if filed against Nexstar, has not been dismissed within thirty (30) days thereof.

      f. WYZZ's Rights following Termination. (i) If this Agreement is terminated for any reason, WYZZ may continue to use Nexstar's facility (to the extent of, and consistent with, the use immediately prior to the termination) for a period of six (6) months following the date of actual termination, without regard to any continuation which occurs as a result of the immediately succeeding sentence (the Continuation Period). If the Parties elect to continue the Services during the Continuation Period, then the Nexstar shall continue to provide the Services and pay the Section 2(a) Amount in accordance with this Agreement during the Continuation Period. If the Parties, or any one of them, elect(s) to discontinue the provision of Services during the Continuation Period, the WYZZ shall pay to the Nexstar a commercially reasonable rent (on a monthly basis in advance) for the use and occupancy of, or any part of, the Nexstar's facilities. WYZZ shall make all payments due to Nexstar hereunder within ten (10) days following receipt of an invoice from Nexstar for the payment of such rent. (ii) Notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, any amounts due hereunder with respect to the period prior to the end of the Term shall be paid in accordance with the provisions hereof following the end of the Term.

      g. WYZZ's Right to Hire Certain Employees. Upon final termination of this Agreement, WYZZ shall have the obligation to hire any employee of Nexstar solely providing services to WYZZ-TV, including (without limitation) all of the account executives of Nexstar exclusively selling time on WYZZ-TV. The parties shall negotiate in good faith with respect to any rights of WYZZ to hire any other employees of Nexstar who are providing services to both Stations. For a period of one year from the termination of this Agreement, neither Party hereto (or any of its affiliates) will directly or indirectly solicit to employ or employ any of the employees of the other Party hereto if such employees were employed by either of the Stations at any time during the six month period immediately preceding the termination of this Agreement.

      h. Joint Capital Equipment. Upon the final termination of this&sbsp;Agreement, the parties shall negotiate in good faith regarding which party shall retain any Combined

                                       22

Capital Equipment purchased during the term hereof for use on both Stations, as well as any payment to be made by the retaining party to the other party after taking into account the allocation among the parties during the term hereof of the cost of acquiring and maintaining such Combined Capital Equipment, as well as the benefit of any depreciation deductions received by Nexstar with respect thereto.

      25. Indemnification.

      a. by Nexstar. Nexstar shall indemnify and hold harmless WYZZ from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, liabilities, damages, and expenses, including any FCC fines or forfeitures (including reasonable legal fees and other expenses incidental thereto), of every kind, nature and description (collectively Damages) arising or resulting from or relating to (i) Nexstar's breach of any representation, covenant, agreement or other obligation of Nexstar contained in this Agreement and (ii) any action, which constitutes gross negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct taken by Nexstar or its employees and agents with respect to WYZZ-TV, or any failure by Nexstar or its employees and agents to take any action with respect to WYZZ-TV, including, without limitation, Damages relating to violations of the Act, or any rule, regulation or policy of the FCC, slander, defamation or other claims relating to the sale of advertising time on the Station (except where the Damages are caused by WYZZ's negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct, or breach of its representations or obligations under this Agreement), from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement.

      b. by WYZZ. WYZZ shall indemnify and hold harmless Nexstar from and against any and all Damages arising or resulting from or relating to (i) WYZZ's breach of any representation, covenant, agreement or other obligation of WYZZ contained in this Agreement and (ii) any action taken, which constitutes gross





negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct by WYZZ or its employees and agents with respect to WMBD-TV, or any failure by WYZZ or its employees and agents to take any action with respect to WMBD-TV, including, without limitation, Damages relating to violations of the Act, or any rule, regulation or policy of the FCC, slander, defamation or other claims relating to programming provided by WYZZ or WYZZ's broadcast and sale of advertising time on WMBD-TV (except where the Damages were incurred by Nexstar's negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct, or breach of any representation, covenant, agreement or other obligation contained in this Agreement), from and after the Effective Date of this Agreement.

      c. Indemnification Procedure. Neither WYZZ nor Nexstar shall be entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Section unless such claim for indemnification is asserted in a written notice delivered to the other Party, together with a statement as to the factual basis for the claim and the amount of the claim. Together with such notice or promptly following the delivery thereof, the Party making the claim (the Claimant) shall make available to the other Party (the Indemnitor) information relied upon by the

                                       23

Claimant to substantiate the claim. Such notice shall be given promptly following Claimant knowing or having reason to know about such claim; provided, the Indemnitor shall be relieved of a liability for Claimant's failure to provide notice only if, and to the extent, adversely impacted by such failure. The Indemnitor under this Section 26(c) shall have the right to conduct and control through counsel of its own choosing the defense of any third Party claim, action or suit (and the Claimant shall cooperate fully with the Indemnitor), but the Claimant may, at its election, participate in the defense of any such claim, action or suit at its sole cost and expense; provided, that, if the Indemnitor shall fail to defend any such claim, action or suit, then the Claimant may defend through counsel of its own choosing such claim, action or suit, and (so long as it gives the Indemnitor at least fifteen (15) days' notice of the terms of the proposed settlement thereof and permits the Indemnitor to then undertake the defense thereof), Claimant may settle such claim, action or suit, and, if Claimant is entitled to be indemnified by Indemnitor hereunder, Claimant may recover from the Indemnitor the amount of such settlement or of any judgment and the costs and expenses of such defense. The Indemnitor shall not compromise or settle any third Party claim, action or suit without the prior written consent of the Claimant, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

      26. Damages; Specific Performance.

      a. In the event of a material breach by WYZZ of its obligations hereunder, Nexstar shall be entitled to seek monetary damages against WYZZ. The Parties recognize, however, that, given the unique nature of the Station and this Agreement, monetary damages alone will not be adequate to compensate Nexstar for any injury resulting from WYZZ's breach. Except to the extent such action would not be permitted by the rules and regulations of the FCC, Nexstar shall therefore be entitled, in addition to a right to seek and collect monetary damages, to obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. If any action is brought by Nexstar to enforce this Agreement, WYZZ shall waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. In addition, in the event of a material breach by WYZZ of its obligations hereunder, Nexstar shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and exercise its rights pursuant to Section 25(b) hereof (except that Nexstar may not assert consequential, special or punitive damages or any claim for lost profits).

      b. In the event of a material breach by Nexstar of its obligations hereunder, WYZZ shall be entitled to seek monetary damages against Nexstar. The Parties recognize, however, that, given the unique nature of the Station and this Agreement, monetary damages alone will not be adequate to compensate WYZZ for any injury resulting from Nexstar's breach. Except to the extent such action would not be permitted by the rules and regulations of the FCC, WYZZ shall therefore be entitled, in addition to a right to seek and collect monetary damages, to obtain specific performance of the terms of this Agreement. If any action is brought by WYZZ to enforce this Agreement, Nexstar

                                       24

shall waive the defense that there is an adequate remedy at law. In addition, in the event of a material breach by Nexstar of its obligations hereunder, WYZZ shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement and exercise its rights pursuant to Section 25(a) hereof (except that WYZZ may not assert consequential, special or punitive damages or any claim for lost profits).

      c. In the event any Party files a lawsuit or institutes other formal legal action to enforce its rights under this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be reimbursed by the other Party for all reasonable expenses incurred thereby, including reasonable attorney's fees.

     THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS THE BINDING ARBITRATION PROVISION WHICH MAY BE                             ENFORCED BY THE PARTIES.

                                       1
