      NOW, THEREFORE, for and in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto have agreed and do agree as follows:

      1. FACILITIES. Commencing on the Effective Date as described in Section 3,
Licensee agrees to make its broadcasting transmission facilities available to
Broker and to broadcast on the Station, or cause to be broadcast on the Station,
Broker's programs which will originate from Broker's own facilities. A
description of Broker's programs is contained in Attachment I hereto.

      2. PAYMENTS. Commencing on the Effective Date as described in Section 3,
Broker agrees to pay Licensee for the broadcast of the programs hereunder during
the Term the sum of FIFTEEN THOUSAND DOLLARS ($15,000) per month for the first
twelve (12) months of the Term, and EIGHTEEN THOUSAND SEVEN HUNDRED FIFTY
DOLLARS ($18,750.00) for the next twelve months, and Twenty-Three Thousand Four
Hundred Thirty-Seven Dollars and Fifty Cents ($23,437.50) per month thereafter
until the termination, including any extensions, of this Agreement, due and
payable in advance on the first day of each month (the "LMA Payment"). Payment
for the first month of this Agreement will be prorated if the effective date of
this Agreement is not the first day of the month. In addition, the Broker will
additionally pay to the Licensee its verifiable legitimate expenses incurred in
the operation of the Station as described in Attachment II, with such expense
payments to be remitted to Licensee by Broker within fifteen (15) days of
Licensee's providing to Broker invoices or evidence of such expenses. The LMA
Payment shall be applied as follows: 70% of this amount will constitute payment
for programs broadcast during the hours of 5:00 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. and 3:00

                                     - 2 -
<PAGE>

p.m. to 7:00 p.m. Monday through Friday; 25% of this amount will constitute
payment for programs broadcast between 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Monday through
Friday and 7:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. Saturday and Sunday; and the remaining 5% for
all other hours, with any credit to Broker to be determined on this basis. The
Broker shall receive a payment credit for any programming provided by it to the
Station and not broadcast by Station for whatever reason except for time
utilized by Licensee under Section 6(i) and Section 6(ii), such credit to be
determined each month by multiplying the monthly payment and reimbursements due
by the ratio of the amount of time preempted or not accepted to the total number
of broadcast hours produced by Broker in accordance with the percentages above
with regard to the time period that the programming did not run. Each separate
block of Broker's programming preempted or not accepted by Licensee that is of a
length of less than eight (8) hours in duration shall be for the purposes of
this computation be regarded as eight (8) hours in duration, such time that is
the difference between the actual time and eight (8) hours to extend in equal
lengths before and after the actual time preempted for the purpose of this
computation. Where practicable, the Licensee shall give Broker advance notice of
an intention to preempt Broker's programming. Broker shall promptly reimburse
(and in no event later than 30 days) Licensee for payments by Licensee for
programming with respect to ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and any other copyright holders
for Broker's programming broadcast on the Station.

      3. EFFECTIVE DATE. The effective date of the time brokerage provisions of
Agreement shall be the date upon which program test authority for Station
commences, pursuant to Section 73.1260 of the Federal Communications Commission
("Commission") Rules, 47 C.F.R.ss. 73.1260, or successor rule ("Effective
Date"). Prior to the Effective Date, this Agreement

                                     - 3 -
<PAGE>

nonetheless represents the legal and binding obligations of the Licensee and
Broker.

      4. TERM. This Agreement will be in effect between the parties for a term
that ends: on the date three (3) years after the Effective Date described in
Section 3 above; or, in the event the Option is exercised by the Broker, upon a
closing of any such transaction or termination as otherwise provided under this
Agreement ( "Term"), provided, however, that if the Broker has failed to
exercise the Option by the end of the Option Term, as defined in Section 18.1,
either Licensee or Broker shall have the right to terminate this Agreement
without penalty to the party giving notice upon its giving 120-days' written
notice to the other party.

      5. PROGRAMS TO BE CARRIED. Broker shall furnish or cause to be furnished
the artistic personnel and material for the programs to be provided under this
Agreement and all programs shall be in good taste and in accordance with Federal
Communications Commission ("Commission") requirements. All programs shall be
prepared and presented in conformity with the regulations prescribed in
Attachment III hereto. All advertising spots and promotional material
announcements shall comply with all applicable Federal, State and Local
regulations and policies. If, in the sole judgment of the Licensee or the
station's General Manager, the Broker does not comply with said standards, the
Licensee may suspend or cancel any program not in compliance. In offering the
commercial inventory of Station for sale to third parties and in otherwise
holding itself out to third parties, in no instance will the Broker represent,
suggest or otherwise give the impression that Broker has any ownership of,
control over or connection with the operation of Station. Broker will
affirmatively state to third parties in the sale of the Station's commercial
inventory that Broker is acting as a time broker of Station's commercial

                                     - 4 -
<PAGE>

inventory and programming only and that except for such role as a time broker,
Broker has no other connection with or control over Station's programming,
finances or operations.

      6. STATION FACILITIES. Between the date of this Agreement and the
Effective Date, Licensee will expeditiously and without delay construct the
Station facilities so as to be able to commence broadcasting with the facilities
authorized by the Commission. Thereafter, the Licensee will, at all times,
operate the Station in accordance with the authorizations issued to it by the
Commission. Commencing on the Effective Date and throughout the term of this
Agreement, Licensee shall make the Station time available to the Broker for
operation with the maximum authorized facilities twenty-four hours a day, seven
days a week, except for: (i) downtime occasioned by routine maintenance not to
exceed two hours each Sunday morning between the hours of 12 Midnight and 6:00
a.m.; (ii) up to three hours Sunday morning, during which time Licensee shall
produce, at its own expense, public service programming designed to address the
problems, needs, and issues relevant to the residents throughout the Station's
listening area; and (iii) times which Broker's programs are not accepted or
preempted by Licensee. Any maintenance work affecting the operation of the
Station at full power shall be scheduled upon at least forty-eight hours prior
notice with the agreement of the Broker, such agreement not to be unreasonably
withheld. If the Station suffers loss or damage of any nature to its
transmission facilities which results in the interruption of service or the
inability of the Station to operate with its maximum authorized facilities,
Licensee shall immediately notify Broker, and Licensee shall undertake such
repairs as may be necessary to restore full-time operation of the Station with
its maximum authorized facilities within seven days from the occurrence of such
loss or damage. If such repairs are not made within seven (7) days, Broker

                                     - 5 -
<PAGE>

may give Licensee twenty (20) days' notice of termination of this Agreement, and
the Agreement shall terminate twenty days after such notice if the repairs are
not made within the twenty-day period, and Broker shall have no further
responsibility to make any payments pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement,
provided, however, that the Option in Section 18.1 shall survive for the Term.

      7. HANDLING OF MAIL. Except as required to comply with Commission rules
and policies, including those regarding the maintenance of the public inspection
file (which shall at all times be the responsibility of Licensee), Licensee
shall not required to receive or handle mail, cables, telegraph or telephone
calls in connection with programs supplied by Broker hereunder unless Licensee,
at the request of Broker, has agreed in writing to do so.

      8. STATION EQUIPMENT, PERSONNEL AND EXPENSES

      8.1. Licensee's Equipment. The equipment and fixtures at the Station, its
transmitter site and any related studio equipment shall be and remain the sole
property of the Licensee. Licensee shall be responsible for the maintenance of
the Licensee's transmitter, tower, antenna and any related equipment, with such
costs to be reimbursed by the Broker within fifteen (15) days after presentation
of evidence of payment by Licensee of such costs. Prior to expending any funds
for which the Licensee expects Broker reimbursement, the Licensee shall seek the
consent of the Broker for such expenditure, and such consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section
shall be interpreted to restrict or inhibit the Licensee from making repairs,
changes and improvements to the Station for which the Licensee does not seek
reimbursement.

                                     - 6 -

responsible for the salaries, taxes, insurance and related costs for all
personnel and equipment used in the production of its programming and the

installation staff). Licensee will provide and be responsible for the Station
personnel necessary for the broadcast transmission of Broker's programs
(including, without limitation, the selection and salaries of Station General
Manager, Chief Operator, and any other necessary employees), and will be
responsible for the salaries, taxes, insurance, and related costs for all the
Station personnel used in the broadcast transmission of Broker's programs, as
well as all equipment at the site where the Station's tower and transmitter are

Operator. Licensee shall pay all license fees for programming in respect to
ASCAP, BMI, SESAC, and any other copyright holders for programming broadcast by
Broker on the Station, which payments shall be promptly (and in no event later
than 30 days) reimbursed by Broker upon notice of payment. Licensee will not
spend or cause to be spent any funds not covered under this Agreement for which
reimbursement is sought without the written consent of Broker.

      9. ADVERTISING REVENUES. Broker shall retain all revenues derived from the
sale of local, regional and national advertising time on the programs it
delivers to the Station, and also any programming delivered directly to the
Station by satellite facilities, and may sell such advertising in combination
with the sale of advertising on any other broadcasting station of its choosing.
Other than the brokered time sold to Broker under this Agreement, Licensee shall
not

                                     - 7 -
<PAGE>

sell any advertising or other time in exchange for cash, services or
merchandise, except for political time that may be required by law to be sold by
the Licensee in which case the Licensee shall promptly remit any such revenues
obtained from the sale of such time to the Broker.

      10. OPERATION OF STATION. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Agreement, Licensee shall have full authority and power over the operation of
the Station during the Term. Licensee's General Manager for the Station shall
report solely to and be accountable solely to the Licensee, and shall direct the
day-to-day operation of the Station. Licensee shall have complete control over
the policies, programming and operations of the Station, including, without
limitation, the right to decide whether to accept or reject any programming or
advertisements and the right to preempt any programs in order to broadcast
programs deemed by Licensee to be of greater national, regional, or local
interest. Licensee shall retain the right to take any other actions necessary
for compliance with the laws of the United States of America; the State of New
Jersey; the rules, regulations, and policies of the Commission; and the rules,
regulations and policies of other federal governmental authorities, including
the Federal Trade Commission and the Department of Justice. Licensee shall at
all times, be solely responsible for meeting all of the Commission's
requirements with respect to emergency broadcast system tests, public service
programming, and for maintaining the Station's political and public inspection
files and for the preparation of Issues/Programs Lists. Broker shall maintain
daily program logs as long as any applicable law should at any time direct and
all program logs, or copies, shall be available for inspection or reproduction
by Licensee. Licensee shall prepare and place in the public file, the quarterly
Issues/Programs Lists. Licensee shall be ultimately responsible for all requests
for political time from political candidates, and Broker

                                     - 8 -
<PAGE>

shall coordinate with Licensee all such sales of political time in accord with
Commission rules and regulations. Broker shall, upon request by Licensee,
provide Licensee with information with respect to such of Broker's programs
which are responsive to public needs and interests to assist Licensee in the
preparation of required programming reports, and will provide upon request other
information to enable Licensee to prepare other records, reports and logs
required by the Commission or other local, state or federal governmental
agencies.

      11. LICENSEE'S UNFETTERED RIGHT OF PREEMPTION. The Licensee specifically
reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to preempt, delete or not broadcast
as the case may be any of the Broker's programs which the Licensee regards as
being unsuitable for broadcast or the broadcast of which it believes would be
contrary to the public interest. In all such cases, the Licensee will use its
best efforts to give Broker reasonable notice of its intention to preempt such
programs and, in the event of such preemption, Broker shall receive a payment
credit for the programs so omitted in accord with Section 2. In no event shall
any preemption, deletion or failure to broadcast Broker's programs take place
for the commercial or economic advantage of the Licensee.

      12. FORCE MAJEURE. Any failure or impairment of the Station facilities or
any delay or interruption in broadcasting programs, or the failure at any time
to furnish facilities, in whole or in part, for broadcasting, due to acts of
God, strikes, or threats thereof, force majeure, or to causes beyond the control
of the Licensee, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

      13. RIGHT TO USE THE PROGRAMS. The right to use the programs produced by
the

                                     - 9 -

Broker and to authorize their use in any manner and in any media whatsoever
shall be, and remain, vested in Broker.

      14. PAYOLA. Broker agrees that it will not accept any compensation or
gratuity of any kind whatsoever, regardless of its value or form, including, but
not limited to, a commission, discount, bonus, materials, supplies, or other
merchandise, services or labor, whether or not pursuant to written contracts or
agreements between Broker and merchants or advertisers, unless the payer is
identified in the program as having paid for or furnished such consideration in
accordance with FCC requirements.

      15. COMPLIANCE WITH LAW. Broker and Licensee agree that, throughout the
term of this Agreement, each will comply with all laws and regulations
applicable in the conduct of its respective business.

      16. EVENTS OF DEFAULT; CURE PERIODS AND REMEDIES.

      16.1. Events of Default. The following shall, after the expiration of the
applicable cure periods, constitute Events of Default under this Agreement:

                  16.1.1 Non-Payment. Broker's failure to make the LMA Payments,
provided that if Broker fails to make the LMA Payment more than three (3) times,
Broker will no longer be entitled to the benefit of the cure provisions of
Section 16.2 hereof and its failure to make a timely LMA Payment thereafter
shall be considered an Event of Default. Failure to tender the LMA Payment by
the tenth (10th) day of the month will be treated as a late payment for the
purposes of this Agreement and determination of non-payment under this Section;

                  16.1.2. Default in Covenants or Adverse Legal Action. The
default by either party hereto in the material observance or performance of any
material covenant, condition or agreement contained herein, or if either party
shall (a) make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or (b) file or
had filed against it a petition for bankruptcy, for reorganization or an
arrangement, or for the appointment of a receiver, trustee or similar creditors'
representative for the property or assets of such party under any federal or
state insolvency law, which, if filed against such party, has not been dismissed
or discharged within 60 days thereof; or

                  16.1.3. Breach of Representation. If any material
representation or warranty herein made by either party hereto, or in any
certificate or document furnished by

                                     - 11 -
<PAGE>

either party to the other pursuant to the provisions hereof, shall prove to have
been false or misleading in any material respect as of the time made or
furnished.

                  16.1.4. Event of Default Under Loan Agreement. Broker and
Licensee are parties to a certain Loan and Security Agreement of even date
herewith (the "Loan Agreement"). Broker's default under the Loan Agreement will
constitute an Event of Default hereunder and terminate the Option provided for
in Section 18.1 hereof.

                  16.2. Cure Periods. An Event of Default shall not be deemed to
have occurred until twenty (20) business days after the non-defaulting party has
provided the defaulting party with written notice specifying the event or events
that if not cured would constitute an Event of Default and specifying the
actions necessary to cure within such period. This period may be extended for a
reasonable period of time if the defaulting party is acting in good faith to
cure and such delay is not materially adverse to the other party.

                  17. TERMINATION OPTIONS.

                  17.1. Termination for Licensee Default. In addition to all
other legal and equitable remedies Broker may have as a result of an Event of
Default by Licensee, Broker may terminate this Agreement. In the event that
any of Broker's programming is not run due to such termination, to the extent
that such programming of the Broker contains as of the date of termination
pre-sold unaired commercial advertisements, whether barter or for cash
consideration, the Licensee will have the obligation to either, at its sole
discretion, run such announcements during the Licensee's replacement or
preempted programming on the same basis

                                     - 12 -
<PAGE>

upon which such advertisements were pre-sold by the Broker, or to compensate
Broker in cash for the price of such unaired commercial advertisements. Upon
termination, neither party shall have any further liability to the other except
as may be provided by this Section or Sections 18, 19.4 or 19.5 hereof.

                  17.2. Broker's Termination Option. Broker shall have the
right, at its option, in addition to all other legal and equitable remedies
Broker may have for a default by the Licensee, to terminate this Agreement at
any time during the term hereof in the event that Licensee preempts or
substitutes other programming for that supplied by the Broker during ten percent
or more of the total hours of operation of the Station each day during any three
or more days in any given week or during 5.5% or more of the total hours of
operation of the Station during any calendar month. In the event Broker elects
to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this provision, it shall give Licensee
notice of such election at least ten (10) days prior to the termination date.
Upon termination, all sums owing to Licensee shall be paid and neither party
shall have any further liability to the other except as may be provided by this
Section or Sections 18, 19.4 or 19.5 hereof.

                  17.3. Termination upon Order of Judicial or Governmental
Authority. In the event that any court of competent jurisdiction or any federal,
state or local governmental authority designates a hearing with respect to the
continuation or renewal of any license or authorization held by Licensee for the
operation of the Station, advises any party hereto of its intention to
investigate or to issue a challenge to or a complaint concerning the activities
contemplated by this Agreement, or orders the termination of this Agreement
and/or materially

                                     - 13 -
<PAGE>

curtails the provision of programming by Broker hereunder, Licensee shall seek
administrative or judicial appeal of or relief from such order(s). If the
Commission designates the renewal application of the Station for a hearing as a
consequence of this Agreement or for any other reason, Licensee shall be
responsible for its expenses incurred as a consequence of the Commission
proceeding; provided, however, that Broker shall cooperate and comply with any
reasonable request of Licensee to assemble and provide to the Commission
information relating to Broker's performance under this Agreement. In the event
of termination upon such governmental order(s), Broker shall pay to Licensee any
fees due but unpaid as of the date of termination as may be permitted by such
order(s), and Licensee shall reasonably cooperate with Broker to the extent
permitted to enable Broker to fulfill advertising or other programming contracts
then outstanding, in which event Licensee shall receive as compensation for the
carriage of such programming that which otherwise would have been paid to Broker
thereunder. Thereafter, neither party shall have any liability to the other
except as may be provided pursuant to Sections 18, 19.4 or 19.5 hereof.

            17.4. Termination for Broker Default. In the event of an occurrence
of an Event of Default as described in Section 16.1 with respect to the Broker,
Licensee shall be under no further obligation to make available to Broker any
further broadcast time or broadcast transmission facilities and all amounts
accrued or payable to Licensee up to the date of termination which have not been
paid, less any payments made on behalf of Licensee by Broker and any payment
credits, shall immediately become due and payable. Broker will also owe Licensee
the sum of $15,000.00 per month for the remainder of then current Term of the
Agreement, but in any event not to exceed $60,000, to compensate for Licensee's
loss of a

                                     - 14 -
<PAGE>

unique business opportunity. Such payments shall constitute liquidated damages
to Licensee. This liquidated damages provision of Section 17.4 will not apply in
the event of a termination of the Agreement pursuant to Sections 17.1, 17.2 and
17.3 hereof. Thereafter, neither party shall have any liability to the other
except as may be provided pursuant to this Section or Sections 18, 19.4 or 19.5
hereof, except that such termination for default by Broker shall also terminate
the Option, as defined in 18.1 hereof.

            18. SALE OF STATION. As additional consideration for this Agreement:

            18.1. Purchase Option. The Licensee grants to Broker, Broker's
assignee or designee an option to acquire the stock of Licensee's Shareholder
Corporations (the "Option"). The term of the Option shall run from the filing of
Licensee's Form 302-FM License application until the date that is one (1) year
thereafter, without regard to whether any of the other terms of this Agreement
remain in effect (the "Option Term"). The exercise of the Option shall be
conditioned only upon Licensee's having filed with the FCC the Station's Form
302-FM license application (or successor application form) certifying the
completion of the construction of the Station. The Option shall entitle Broker
to purchase the stock of Licensee's Shareholder Corporations for the amount
equal to the Fair Market Value, as defined below, of the Station as determined
by the average of two appraisals conducted at the time of the exercise of the
Option (the "Option Price"). In the event of the exercise of the Option,
Licensee and Broker shall each appoint an appraiser. If the value of the
appraisals differs by more than twenty percent (20%), the two appraisers shall
select a third appraiser, whose appraisal shall be deemed the binding appraisal.
For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Fair Market Value" shall be

                                     - 15 -
<PAGE>

defined to mean the price in cash, or its equivalent, at which the Station would
change hands between a willing buyer and willing seller, neither being under any
compulsion to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant
facts. In consideration of the grant of the Option, Broker will pay the sum of
up to Nine Hundred Thousand Dollars ($900,000.00), such payment to be
distributed to the shareholders of the Licensee's Shareholder Corporations as
set forth in Schedule A hereto, as a nonrefundable option payment (the "Option
Payment") upon the execution of this Agreement. If Broker exercises the Option,
which the Parties acknowledge can occur no sooner than the day after Licensee
files the Form 302FM license application for the Station, concurrently with the
filing of the application to the Commission for consent to transfer of control
of the FCC Licenses, as hereinafter defined, Broker will pay Licensee's
Shareholder Corporations in immediately available funds a sum equal to 25% of
the Option Price (the "Deposit Payment") no later than five (5) business days
after written notice to Licensee of the exercise of the Option. In the event
that Broker were to exercise the Option, the FCC were to approve a transfer of
control of the FCC Licenses, and the parties were to consummate the sale of the
stock of the Licensee's Shareholder Corporations, the Option Payment and the
Deposit Payment would be credited towards the Option Price. Licensee shall
notify Broker at least ten (10) days prior to the date of the commencement of
program test authority of the date it intends to commence program test
authority. The Option must be exercised in writing in accord with Section 30 of
this Agreement. In the event of the exercise of the Option by the Broker, the
parties shall execute the Stock Purchase Agreement in the form attached as an
Exhibit to this Agreement no later than thirty (30) days after the receipt by
Licensee of written notice of Broker's exercise of the Option. Consummation of
any such transaction will not occur until

                                     - 16 -
<PAGE>

receipt of all required FCC approvals. This Section 18 survives any termination
of this Agreement for whatever cause, unless mutually agreed otherwise.

            18.2 The parties expressly acknowledge that this Agreement is
specifically subject to the occurrence of conditions set forth in the certain
Option Agreement between and among Licensee, Southern Ocean, Jersey Devil, Great
American and Nassau Broadcasting Holdings, Inc., an affiliate of Broker, of even
date herewith (the "Option Agreement"). Any payments made to the Licensee
Shareholder Corporations pursuant to the Option Agreement shall be credited
towards the Option Payment hereunder.

            18A. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF LICENSEE SHAREHOLDER
CORPORATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE SHARES. Licensee Shareholder Corporations
represent and warrant to Broker that the following statements as to Licensee
Shareholder Corporations, Licensee, the Station and the Shares are, where
applicable, correct as of the date hereof and that they shall be correct until
and at the Closing of the purchase of the Shares by Broker. Broker acknowledges
that Joan Beth Hansen, President and sole shareholder of Southern Ocean, has
filed for Chapter 11 reorganization under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code in the United
States Bankruptcy Court for the District of New Jersey, Trenton Division,
Bankruptcy Case 93-33346, and that the representations and warranties of
Southern Ocean are subject to such bankruptcy.

                  18A. 1 As of the date of this Agreement, the Option Payment
does not exceed the reasonable and prudent expenditures of the Licensee

            19. REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND INDEMNIFICATION.

            19.1. Mutual Representations and Warranties. Licensee, Licensee
Shareholder Corporations and Broker each represent to the other that each is
legally qualified, empowered, and able to enter into this Agreement, and that
the execution, delivery, and performance hereof shall not constitute a breach or
violation of any agreement, contract or other obligation to which

                                     - 19 -
<PAGE>

it is subject or by which it is bound. Each further covenants that it will take
all necessary corporate action to make this Agreement legally binding on such

            19.2.1. Authorizations. Licensee owns and holds or shall own and

Station (including licenses, permits and authorizations issued by the
Commission) (the "FCC Licenses"), and such licenses, permits and authorizations
will be in full force and effect for the term of this Agreement, unimpaired by
any acts or omissions of Licensee, its employees or agents. There is not now
pending or, to Licensee's best knowledge, threatened, any action by the
Commission or other party to revoke, cancel, suspend, refuse to renew or modify
adversely any of such licenses, permits or authorizations or the imposition of
any restriction thereon of such a nature that may limit the operation of the
Station. Licensee has no reason to believe that any such license, permit or
authorization will not be renewed during the term of this Agreement in its
ordinary course. Licensee is not in violation of any statute, ordinance, rule,
regulation, order or decree of any federal, state, local or foreign governmental
agency, court or authority having jurisdiction over it or over any part of its
operations or assets, which default or violation would have an adverse effect on
Licensee or its assets or ability to perform this Agreement.

            19.2.2. Filings. All reports and applications required to be filed
with the Commission (including ownership reports, annual employment reports, and

have been, and in the future will be, filed in a timely manner and are and will
be true and complete and accurately present the information contained therein.
All filing fees associated with the foregoing shall be paid by the Licensee. All
such reports and documents, to the extent required to be kept in the public
inspection files of the Station, are and will be kept in such files. Upon
request by Licensee, Broker shall provide in a timely manner any such
information in its possession which will enable Licensee to prepare, file or
maintain the records required by the Commission.

            19.2.3. Facilities. The Station's facilities will be maintained by
the Licensee. The Station facilities will comply and be operated, in all
material respects, in accordance with the maximum facilities permitted by the
FCC Licenses for the Station and with good engineering standards necessary to
deliver a high quality technical signal to the area served by the Station, and
within all applicable laws and regulations (including the requirements of the
Communications Act and the rules, regulations, policies and procedures of the
Commission promulgated thereunder).

            19.2.4. Title to Properties. Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, the Licensee will maintain good and marketable title to all of the
assets and properties now used in the operation of the Station, free and clear
of any liens, claims or security interests. Licensee will not dispose or,
transfer, assign or pledge any material asset, except with the prior written
consent of Broker.

            19.2.5. Payment of Obligations. Licensee shall pay in a timely
fashion all of

                                     - 21 -

its debts, assessments and obligations, including tax liabilities and payments
attributable to the operations of the Station, as they come due from and after
the effective date of this Agreement.

throughout the term of this Agreement insurance with responsible and reputable
insurance companies or associations covering such risks, including fire and
other risks insured against by extended coverage, public liability insurance,
insurance for claims against personal injury or death or property damage and
such other insurance as is customarily provided for in radio station operation.
Any insurance proceeds received by Licensee in respect of damaged property will
be used to repair or replace such property so that the operation of the Station
conforms with this Agreement.

            19.3. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Broker. Broker
makes the following further representations, warranties and covenants:

            19.3.1. Legal Qualifications. Broker is legally qualified under the
FCC's local ownership rules, including, but without limitation, Section 73.3555
(or successor rule provision) and applicable FCC policies governing multiple

            19.5. Broker Indemnification. Broker agrees to hold Licensee, its
partners, officers, directors, agents, stockholders, employees, and
subsidiaries, harmless from any and all claims, damages, liability, costs and
expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees, arising from the broadcasting of

Broker's obligation to hold Licensee harmless against the liabilities specified
above shall survive any termination of this Agreement until the expiration of
all applicable statutes of limitation.

            20. LICENSEE CERTIFICATION. The Licensee certifies that under this
Agreement, notwithstanding any provision that could be interpreted to the
contrary, it maintains ultimate control over the Station's facilities, including
specifically control over Station finances, personnel and programming.

            21. BROKER CERTIFICATION. The Broker certifies that the arrangement
provided for in this Agreement complies with Sections 73.3555(a)(1) and (e)(1)

            22. MODIFICATION AND WAIVER. No modification or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement shall in any event be effected unless the same shall

modification, and then such waiver and consent shall be effective only in the
specific instance and for the purpose for which given.

            23. NO WAIVER; REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. No failure or delay on the part
of Licensee or Broker in exercising any right or power hereunder shall operate
as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right
or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right
or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right or power. The rights and remedies of Licensee and Broker herein
provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any right or remedies which it
may otherwise have.

            24. CONSTRUCTION. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of the State of New Jersey and the obligations of the parties

Commission and all other governmental bodies or authorities presently or

any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement, which default results in the
filing of a lawsuit and/or action seeking equitable relief, the prevailing party
in such lawsuit shall be entitled to a reimbursement of its reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs.

                                FIRST AMENDMENT
                          TO TIME BROKERAGE AGREEMENT

     THIS FIRST AMENDMENT (the "First Amendment") is made as of the 15th day of
June, 1999, by and among Manahawkin Communications Corporation ("Licensee"), the
permittee of the FM radio station on 105.7 MHz, Manahawkin, New Jersey, Jersey
Devil Broadcasting, Inc. ("Jersey Devil"), Southern Ocean Broadcasting, Inc.
("Southern Ocean"), and Great American Communications Co. ("Great American")
(collectively the "Licensee Shareholder Corporations"), and Nassau Broadcasting
Partners, L.P. ("Broker"). Licensee, Licensee Shareholder Corporations, and
Broker are hereinafter collectively referred to as the "Parties".

                                   RECITALS

    WHEREAS, the Parties entered into a certain Time Brokerage Agreement dated
February 12, 1997 (the "Agreement"), which sets forth their agreements regarding
Broker's use of broadcasting time and the grant of an option by Licensee and
Licensee Shareholder Corporations to Broker for the purchase of the issued and
outstanding shares of the capital stock of Licensee;

    WHEREAS, the Parties also entered into a certain Option Agreement dated
February 12, 1997 (the "Option Agreement") and have fulfilled each of their
obligations thereunder, except that Nassau has not yet paid to Southern Ocean
its portion of the Option Payment, as defined in the original Section 18 of the
Agreement, to secure the Option and the extension of time in which to make such
payment has expired pursuant to Section 7(c) of the Option Agreement; and

    WHEREAS, Jersey Devil and Great American hereby acknowledge receipt of
their respective portions of the Option Payment, as defined in the original
Section 18 of the Agreement and that Broker has secured the Option with respect
to their stock in Licensee and that the Option continues in full force and
effect as to Jersey Devil and Great American; and

<PAGE>

    WHEREAS, Nassau desires to secure the Option to acquire the stock of
Licensee owned by Southern Ocean; and

    WHEREAS, as of the date hereof, Licensee, Licensee Shareholder Corporations
and Broker continue to be the only parties to the Agreement; and

    WHEREAS, in light of new regulations adopted by the Federal Communications
Commission ("FCC"), the Parties desire to amend the Agreement on the terms and
conditions hereinafter set forth; and

    WHEREAS, Section 22 of the Agreement requires that any modification or
amendment of the Agreement be in the form of an written instrument executed by
all the Parties.

    NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the agreements herein contained, and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is
hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereto do hereby agree to amend the Agreement
as follows:

    1.   Definitions. For the purposes of this Amendment, all capitalized terms
         -----------
 used herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

    2.   Perfection of Option on Southern Ocean Stock. Southern Ocean hereby
         ---------------------------------------------
agrees to seek any and all necessary approvals of the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of New Jersey, Trenton Division (the "Bankruptcy Court")
in order for Nassau to proceed with acquiring the Option to acquire Southern
Ocean's stock in Licensee. No later than ten (10) business days from the date of
this First Amendment, Southern Ocean will cause to be filed the necessary motion
to obtain the approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Upon receipt of an order from
the Bankruptcy Court approving Nassau's acquisition of the Option, Nassau will
pay Southern Ocean the sum of Three Hundred Fifty-Seven Thousand One Hundred
Twenty-Five Dollars and no Cents ($357,125.00) (the "Option Acquisition
Payment"). Upon receipt of the Option Acquisition Payment by Southern Ocean,
Nassau will have a fully vested Option in Southern Ocean's shares of Licensee.

                                       2

<PAGE>

    3.   Amendment to the Agreement. Effective the date hereof, Section 18.1
         ---------------------------
of the Agreement shall be amended by deleting such Section and inserting the
following Section 18.1 in lieu thereof:

         18.1. Purchase Option. The Licensee grants to Broker, Broker's
               ----------------
assignee or designee an option to acquire the stock of Licensee's Shareholder
Corporations (the "Option"). The term of the Option shall run from February 16,
1999, which is the effective date of the FCC's Report and Order in MM Docket
                                               -----------------------------
No. 98-43, 13 FCC Rcd 23056 (1998), which eliminated the prohibition against
----------
the sale of an unbuilt station, until the date that is one (1) year from the
date of the filing of the Form 302-FM application (or successor application
form) for license to cover the Station's construction permit, without regard to
whether any of the other terms of this Agreement remain in effect (the "Option
Term"). The Option shall entitle Broker to purchase the stock of Licensee's
Shareholder Corporations for the aggregate amount of Four Million Six Hundred
Seventy-Five Thousand Dollars and no cents ($4,675,000.00) (the "Option Price").
If Broker exercises the Option, Broker will deliver to each of Licensee's
Shareholder Corporations in which the Option is being exercised the sum of Four
Hundred Thousand Dollars and No Cents ($400,000.00) (each such exercise payment
hereafter the "Deposit Payment") in immediately available funds. Broker shall
deliver the Deposit Payment simultaneously with written notice to Licensee of
the exercise of the Option. In the event that Broker were to exercise the
Option, the FCC were to approve a transfer of control of the FCC Licenses, and
the Parties were to consummate the sale of the stock of the Licensee's
Shareholder Corporations, the Option Payment and the Deposit Payments to each
Licensee Shareholder Corporation will be credited toward the Option Price paid
to such Licensee Shareholder Corporation. The Option must be exercised in
writing in accord with Section 29 of the Agreement. Upon receipt of the notice
of exercise of the Option by the Broker, each Licensee Shareholder Corporation
in which Broker has exercised the Option shall execute the Stock Purchase

                                       3
<PAGE>

Agreement in the form attached as an Exhibit to this First Amendment no later
than five (5) business days after the receipt by Licensee of written notice of
Broker's exercise of the Option. Consummation of any such transaction will not
occur until receipt of all required FCC approvals. In light of the necessity of
obtaining the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court for acquisition of the
Option as it relates to Southern Ocean, it is specifically contemplated that the
exercise of the Option to acquire the Southern Ocean stock would occur at a date
later than the exercise of the Option as it relates to the other Licensee
Shareholder Corporations. This Section 18 survives any termination of this
Agreement for whatever cause, unless mutually agreed otherwise.

    4.   The parties acknowledge that it is the express intention of Broker to
exercise the option at the earliest possible date following the execution of
this First Amendment.

    5.   In all other respects, the Agreement remains unchanged and in full
force and effect.

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of Licensee, Licensee's Shareholder Corporations,
and Broker has caused this Amendment to be duly executed and delivery in its
name and on its behalf as of the day first written above.
