               b. Countersigned, bound copies of Magazine acceptable to
                  PUBLISHER and Printer will be retained by both Customer and
                  Printer for use as the standard of quality.

     1.2 This contract shall apply exclusively to the printed products
         mentioned in Section 1.1 hereof. Any other products published by the
         Customer, which are not included herein, shall be negotiated between
         the Printer and the Customer.

     1.3 Customer will supply the paper to print the Magazines in accordance
         with the paper usage charts, which are attached as Schedules C and H.
         Printer shall furnish to Customer no later than the 15th of each month
         a written accounting of all paper received from Customer and consumed
         during the previous month and all of the remaining stocks. Printer
         shall take a physical inventory every six months during the term of
         this Contract and shall promptly supply the results in writing to
         Customer, which may audit such inventory report at any time upon four
         (4) business days' notice to Printer. Should the paper consumption
         exceed that set forth in Schedules C and H, Printer shall upon
         completion of such accounting, at Printer's option, reimburse Customer
         for such excess either in kind or at the same price per pound, at a
         rate equal to the average cost of said paper during the accounting
         period. In the event of a net under consumption, Customer agrees to pay
         the Printer an amount equal to one-half of the cost of the paper so
         under consumed, computed at the same rates. The value of under
         consumption, if any, of one kind or weight of the paper shall be used
         as a credit against over consumption, if any, of other kinds/weights of
         paper. Printer shall store up to three months' paper requirements for
         the printing of the three (3) Magazines on its premises, at no cost to
         Customer.

         reproduction consistent with industry SWOP standards. Printer shall
         bear the cost (including paper and ink) of make-goods caused by any
         error or omission attributable to Printer. Failure to correct errors
         within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notification, shall be
         considered as breach of the terms and conditions of this contract and
         will entitle Customer to cancel this contract on thirty (30) days'
         notice.

              paragraph 1.4 above; and subsequent to 1.1.1B.

      3.11.2  Upon the happening of an event of force majeure which prevents or
              substantially hinders Printer's full performance hereunder (force
              majeure being defined as an event the non-occurrence of which is
              relied upon by both parties for the performance of the contract
              and includes but is not limited to: strikes, war, fire, flood,
              Acts of God and any other unforeseen events of the same or a
              different nature not necessarily within the control of either
              party), Printer shall have the right to remove the work (as to any
              or all Magazines) to another facility ("Printer's Facility")
              provided that within three business days of the occurrence of the
              event of force majeure Printer provides assurances satisfactory to
              Customer that the work can be performed at Printer's Facility to
              the same quality standards and upon the same price terms as
              herein; failing which, Customer shall have the right to remove the
              work to another printer of its own choosing for the duration of
              the event of force majeure. If the event of force majeure
              continues more than forty-five (45) days, and (i) Printer has
              removed the work to Printer's Facility as provided above, then if
              Customer is satisfied with the work of Printer's Facility, Printer
              has the option of continuing this Agreement in full force and
              effect and upon all terms and conditions hereof, as to all
              Magazines so removed, except that the work be performed at
              Printer's Facility; (ii) Customer has removed the work to a
              printer of its own choice as provided above, then Customer may

3.12  Either party shall have the right to terminate this agreement for a
      material breach which remains uncured more than thirty (30) days after
      written notice and demand to cure is received specifying the breach; such
      termination shall be by written notice effective thirty (30) days after
      receipt; provided always that if in Customer's reasonable business
      judgement Printer's breach substantially impairs Customer's ability to
      distribute its Magazines on time Customer shall have the right immediately
      to move the work elsewhere as to any or all Magazines. In any event,
      upon termination for any cause whatsoever Printer will cooperate fully
      with Customer in the transition process to a new Printer.

3.13  In the event either of the parties should become insolvent or bankrupt,
      the other party shall be entitled to terminate this Contract on no less
      than thirty (30) days' written notice to the other party or to its estate
      or successor.

3.14  Subject to the remainder of this agreement, upon termination, Customer
      shall not be liable for any of the Printer's costs: (a) incurred or
      ordered after notice; (b) which can be cancelled at no loss to the
      Printer, or (c) in excess of the out-of-pocket loss to the Printer of any
      unused items sold to other customers or third parties or returned to
      suppliers. In any event, Printer's costs will only include normal
      manufacturing expenses.

3.15  Upon the sale of the Magazines, or any one of them, Customer will attempt
      to have the purchaser continue this Agreement for any unexpired term.

4.0  LIABILITY FOR CONTENT
     ---------------------

                                       4

<PAGE>
     4.1  Customer will indemnify and hold Printer harmless from and against any
          claims, demands, suits, actions, costs, loss or judgements, including
          reasonable attorneys' fees, for libel, defamation of character,
          copyright or trademark infringement, invasion of right of privacy or
          publicity, patent infringement or invasion of any other right, by any
          person, firm or entity against the Printer not attributable to
          Printer's fault and arising out of any material delivered by the
          Customer or supplied on its behalf to Printer and used by Printer
          according to Customer's instructions in producing the three (3)
          Magazines, provided that such indemnity shall not include
          consequential or exemplary damages or lost profits.

     4.2  In like manner Printer shall indemnify and hold Customer harmless from
          and against any claims, demands, suits, actions, costs, loss or
          judgements, including reasonable attorneys' fees, for libel,
          defamation of character, copyright or trademark infringement, invasion
          of right of privacy or publicity, patent infringement or invasion of
          any other right, by any person, firm or entity against Customer
          arising out of any act or omission of Printer in performing its
          services hereunder, provided, however that such indemnity shall not
          exceed the value of the contract and shall not include liability for
          consequential or exemplary damages or lost profits.

     4.3  No indemnification promised in sections 4.1 or 4.2 above shall be
          effective unless the indemnified party shall have given prompt notice
          of any indemnifiable claim to the indemnifying party. Thereafter the
          indemnifying party shall at its sole cost and expense defend the claim
          by counsel of its choosing reasonably acceptable to the indemnified
          party or at its option instruct the indemnified party to defend but at
          the indemnifying party's expense. Nothing herein shall prevent any
          indemnified party from retaining its own counsel at its own expense to
          advise it or to elect to defend with its own counsel but in such event
          such defense shall be at the indemnified party's sole expense and risk
          of liability. No indemnifying party shall conclude a settlement
          binding on an indemnified party absent the consent of the indemnified
          party. Should an indemnified party elect to settle or compromise any
          claim solely as to itself without permission of the indemnifying
          party, the indemnifying party shall thereafter have no further
          obligations toward the indemnified party.

5.0  DISPUTED INVOICES

     5.1  Customer shall not be obligated to pay any portion of any invoice,
          which it disputes in good faith. Customer shall have sixty (60) days
          from the receipt of such invoice to notify the Printer in writing of
          any items which it disputes and shall specify its grounds therefor.
          Thereafter the parties shall attempt during the next thirty (30) days
          to attempt to resolve the dispute among themselves in good faith. In
          no event shall dispute of an invoice by Customer be deemed a breach of
          this Contract or entitle Printer to stop or distrain work.

     5.2  Notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, Printer's
          continued failure, for any reason whatsoever except events of force
          majeure, to produce the three (3) Magazines or to produce them timely
          in accordance with the production schedule submitted by the Customer
          and agreed upon by Printer, shall entitle Customer, on thirty (30)
          days' notice, to terminate this Contract and take the work elsewhere.
          In case of events of force majeure paragraph 3.11.2 will apply.

6.0  MISCELLANEOUS

           incurred or ordered after notice; (b) which can be cancelled at no

     2.2  This contract shall apply exclusively to the printed products
          mentioned in Section 2.1 hereof. Any other products published by the
          Customer, which are not included herein, shall be negotiated between
          the Printer and the Customer.

     2.3  Printing shall be scheduled to take place during the Printer's normal
          business hours, namely from 7:00 p.m. on Sunday to 7:00 p.m. on
          Saturday.

           2.4  The Customer will supply the paper to print the publications in
           accordance with the paper usage chart, which is attached as Schedule
           A. The Printer shall furnish to the Customer no later than the 15th
           of each month a written accounting of all paper received from the
           Customer and consumed during the previous month and all of the
           remaining stocks. The Printer shall take a physical inventory every
           six months during the term of this Contract and shall promptly supply
           the results in writing to the Customer, which may audit such
           inventory report at any time upon four (4) business days' notice to
           the Printer. Should the paper consumption exceed that set forth in

           Printer's option, reimburse the Customer for such excess either in
           kind or at the same price per pound, at a rate equal to the average
           cost of said paper during the accounting period. In the event of a
           net under consumption, the Customer agrees to pay the Printer an
           amount equal to one-half of the cost of the paper so under consumed,
           computed at the same rates. The value of under consumption, if any,
           of one kind or weight of the paper shall be used as a credit against
           over consumption, if any, of other kinds/weights of paper. Printer
           shall store up to three months' paper requirements for the printing
           of the four (4) publications on its premises, at no cost to the

           The Printer shall bear the cost (including paper and ink) of
           make-goods caused by any error or omission attributable to the
           Printer. Repeated errors, or repeated failure to correct errors, will
           entitle the Customer to cancel this Contract on thirty (30) days'
           notice.

     3.1  The Customer undertakes to comply with the terms and conditions of
          sale described in the attachments.

          prescribed by law to protect the Customer's interests as they may
          appear upon any levy or attempted levy by the Printer's creditors on
          the Customer's property or any finished work or work in progress; the
          Printer shall expeditiously seek to remove any such lien and in any
          event shall hold the Customer entirely harmless therefrom.

                                                                     Page 3 of 6

          4.8     The Printer shall use its best efforts to keep confidential

          4.10    Customer shall be entitled to terminate this Agreement,
                  notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph 1.1 above:

                  4.10.1  Upon written notice, if printer consistently falls
                          below the standard of quality required by paragraph
                          2.1 above as provided in paragraph 2.5 above;

                  4.10.2  Upon the happening of an event of force majeure which
                          prevents or substantially hinders Printer's full
                          performance hereunder (force majeure being defined as
                          an event the non-occurrence of which is relied upon by
                          both parties for the performance of the contract and
                          includes but is not limited to: strikes, war, fire,
                          flood, Acts of God and any other unforeseen event of
                          the same or a different nature not necessarily within
                          the control of either party), Customer shall have the
                          right to immediately remove the work from Printer and
                          have the magazine printed elsewhere. Should the event
                          of force majeure continue for more than forty-five
                          (45) days Customer shall have the right to cancel this
                          Agreement as to any or all magazines.

                  4.10.3  As specified in paragraph 6.2 below.

4.11              Either party shall have the right to terminate this agreement
                  for a material breach which remains uncured more than thirty
                  (30) days after written notice and demand to cure is received
                  specifying the breach; such termination shall be by written
                  notice effective thirty (30) days after receipt; provided
                  always that if in Customer's reasonable business judgement
                  Printer's breach substantially impairs Customer's ability to
                  distribute its magazines on time Customer shall have the right
                  immediately to move the work elsewhere as to any or all
                  magazines. In any event, upon termination for any cause
                  whatsoever Printer will cooperate fully with Customer in the
                  transition process to a new printer.

5.0       LIABILITY FOR CONTENT

          5.1     The Customer will indemnify and hold the Printer harmless from
                  and against any claims, demands, suits, actions, costs, loss
                  or judgements, including reasonable attorney's fees, for
                  libel, defamation of character, copyright or trademark
                  infringement, invasion of right of privacy or publicity, or
                  patent infringement by any person, firm or entity against the
                  Printer arising out of any material delivered by the Customer
                  or supplied on its behalf to the Printer and used by the
                  Printer in producing the four (4) publications.

          5.2     In like manner the Printer shall indemnify and hold the
                  Customer harmless from and against any claims, demands, suits,
                  actions, costs, loss or judgements, including reasonable
                  attorney's fees, for libel, defamation of character, copyright
                  or trademark infringement, invasion of right of privacy or
                  publicity, or patent infringement, by any

                                                                     Page 4 of 6
<PAGE>
[TRANSCONTINENTAL LOGO]

          person, firm or entity against the Customer arising out of any act or
          omission of the Printer in performing its services hereunder.

     5.3  No indemnification promised in sections 5.1 or 5.2 above shall be
          effective unless the indemnified party shall have given prompt notice
          of any indemnifiable claim to the indemnifying party. Thereafter the
          indemnifying party shall at its sole cost and expense defend the claim
          by counsel of its choosing reasonably acceptable to the indemnified
          party or at its option instruct the indemnified party to defend but at
          the indemnifying party's expense. Nothing herein shall prevent any
          indemnified party from retaining its own counsel at its own expense to
          advise it or to elect to defend with its own counsel but in such event
          such defense shall be at the indemnified party's sole expense and risk
          of liability. No indemnitor shall conclude a settlement binding on an
          indemnitee party absent the consent of the indemnitee. Should an
          indemnitee elect to settle or compromise any claim solely as to itself
          without permission of the indemnitor, the indemnitor shall thereafter
          have no further obligations toward the indemnitee.

6.0  DISPUTED INVOICES

     6.1  The Customer shall not be obligated to pay any portion of any invoice,
          which it disputes in good faith. The Customer shall have sixty (60)
          days from the receipt of such invoice to notify the Printer in writing
          of any items which it disputes and shall specify its grounds therefor.
          Thereafter the parties shall attempt during the next thirty (30) days
          to attempt to resolve the dispute among themselves in good faith,
