                             STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

         AGREEMENT, made as of August 15, 2006 by and between Juniper Partners
Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Company"), with principal offices
located at 56 West 45th Street, Suite 805, New York 10036, and Stuart B. Rekant
("Employee"), residing at 880 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10021.

         WHEREAS, simultaneously herewith, the Company has entered into an
Employment Agreement with Employee ("Employment Agreement") pursuant to which
Employee is entitled to the grant of an option ("Option") to purchase an
aggregate of 350,000 shares of the authorized but unissued common stock of the
Company, $0.0001 par value ("Common Stock"), conditioned upon Employee's
acceptance thereof upon the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement;
and

         WHEREAS, Employee desires to acquire the Option on the terms and
conditions set forth in this Agreement;

         IT IS AGREED:

         1. Grant of Stock Option. The Company hereby grants to Employee the
right and option to purchase all or any part of an aggregate of 350,000 shares
of the Common Stock ("Option Shares") on the terms and conditions set forth
herein.

         2. Non-Incentive Stock Option. The Option represented hereby is not
intended to be an Option that qualifies as an "Incentive Stock Option" under
Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

         3. Exercise Price. The exercise price ("Exercise Price") of the Option
shall be the average of the Last Reported Sale Price of the Common Stock for the
5 Trading Days immediately preceding the Closing Date (as defined in the Merger
Agreement referred to in the Employment Agreement (the "Merger Agreement")),
subject to adjustment as hereinafter provided.

As used herein (a) the term "Last Reported Sale Price" on any date shall mean
the closing sale price per share of the Common Stock (or if no closing sale
price is reported, the average of the closing bid and asked prices) on that date
as reported in composite transactions for the principal U.S. securities exchange
on which the Common Stock is traded or, if the Common Stock is not listed on a
U.S. national or regional securities exchange, as reported by the Nasdaq
National Market or Nasdaq Capital Market or the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board
("OTCBB"). If the Common Stock is not listed for trading on a U.S. national or
regional securities exchange and not reported by the Nasdaq National Market or
Nasdaq Capital Market or OTCBB on the relevant date, the "Last Reported Sale
Price" will be the last quoted bid price for a share of Common Stock in the
over-the-counter market on the relevant date as reported by the Pink Sheets LLC
or similar organization; and (b) the term "Trading Day" shall mean a day during
which trading in securities generally occurs on the principal national
securities exchange on which the Common Stock is then listed or, if not then
listed on a national securities exchange, on the Nasdaq National Market or
Nasdaq Capital Market or, if not then quoted on the Nasdaq National Market
Nasdaq Capital Market, on the principal other market on which the Common Stock
is traded or quoted.

         4. Exercisability.

         4.1 Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Option
is exercisable on the Closing Date with respect to 87,500 Option Shares, shall
become exercisable with respect to an additional 87,500 Option Shares on each of
the first two anniversaries of the Closing Date and shall become exercisable
with respect to an additional 87,500 Option Shares on the second business day
preceding the third anniversary of the Closing Date. The Option shall remain
exercisable until the close of business on the day preceding the fifth
anniversary of the Closing Date. The period beginning on the Closing Date and
ending on the day preceding the fifth anniversary of the Closing Date is
referred to herein as the "Exercise Period." Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement or the Employment Agreement, the Option shall
terminate and be null, void and of no effect if the Merger Agreement is
terminated without consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby.

                                       2

         4.2 Notwithstanding Section 4.1 to the contrary, the Option shall
become fully exercisable with respect to all Option Shares if Employee's
employment is terminated (i) by the Company without "Cause" (as defined in the
Employment Agreement) or (ii) by Executive for "Good Reason" (as defined in the
Employment Agreement).

     5. Effect of Termination of Employment.

         5.1 Termination Due to Death or Disability. If Employee's employment by
the Company terminates by reason of death or disability, the Option, to the
extent then exercisable pursuant to Section 4.1, may thereafter be exercised
until the expiration of the Exercise Period.

         5.2 Termination by the Company Without Cause or by Employee for "Good
Reason". Subject to Section 5.5, if Employee's employment is terminated (i) by
the Company without "cause", or (ii) by Employee for "Good Reason," the Option,
to its full extent as to all Option Shares in accordance with Section 4.2, may
be exercised until the expiration of the Exercise Period.

         5.3 Termination Due to Normal Retirement. Subject to Section 5.5, if
Employee's employment is terminated due to normal retirement, the Option, to the
extent then exercisable pursuant to Section 4.1, may be exercised for a period
of three years from the date of such termination or until the expiration of the
Exercise Period, whichever is shorter.

         5.4 Other Termination. If Employee's employment is terminated for any
reason other than (i) death, (ii) disability, (iii) normal retirement, (iv)
without "Cause" by the Company,(v) by Employee for "Good Reason" or (vi) the
expiration of the term of the Employment Agreement with renewal or extension,
the Option shall expire on the date of termination of employment.

         5.5 Option Null and Void. If, after the term of Employee's employment
with the Company, Employee engages in activity that violates Section 4.4 of the
Employment

                                       3

Agreement (to the extent such section is applicable), the Board of Directors, in
its sole discretion, may annul any award granted hereunder and require Employee
to return to the Company the economic benefit received by Employee of any Option
Shares purchased hereunder by Employee within the 12 month period prior to the
date of termination.

     6. Withholding Tax. Not later than the date as of which an amount first
becomes includible in the gross income of Employee for Federal income tax
purposes with respect to the Option, Employee shall pay to the Company, or make
arrangements satisfactory to the Board of Directors regarding the payment of,
any Federal, state and local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld or
paid with respect to such amount ("Withholding Tax"). The obligations of the
Company pursuant to this Agreement shall be conditional upon such payment or
arrangements with the Company and the Company shall, to the extent permitted by
law, have the right to deduct any Withholding Taxes from any payment of any kind
otherwise due to Employee from the Company.

     7. Adjustments. In the event of any change in the shares of Common Stock of
the Company as a whole occurring as the result of a common stock split or
reverse split, combination or exchange of shares, or other extraordinary or
unusual event occurring after the grant of the Option, the Board of Directors
shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether such change equitably requires
an adjustment in the terms of this Option. Any such adjustments will be made by
the Board of Directors, whose determination will be final, binding and
conclusive.

     8. Method of Exercise.

         8.1 Notice to the Company. The Option shall be exercised in whole or in
part by written notice in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A
directed to the Company at its principal place of business accompanied by full
payment as hereinafter provided of the exercise price for the number of Option
Shares specified in the notice and of the Withholding Taxes, if any.

         8.2 Delivery of Option Shares. The Company shall deliver a certificate
for the Option Shares to Employee as soon as practicable after payment therefor.

                                       4

         8.3 Payment of Purchase Price.

               8.3.1 Cash Payment. Employee shall make cash payments by wire
transfer, certified or bank check or personal check, in each case payable to the
order of the Company; the Company shall not be required to deliver certificates
for Option Shares until the Company has confirmed the receipt of good and
available funds in payment of the purchase price thereof.

               8.3.2 Cashless Payment. Provided that prior approval of the
Company has been obtained, Employee may use Common Stock of the Company owned by
him to pay the purchase price for the Option Shares by delivery of stock
certificates in negotiable form which are effective to transfer good and valid
title thereto to the Company, free of any liens or encumbrances. Shares of
Common Stock used for this purpose shall be valued at the Last Reported Sale
Price on the date of exercise.

               8.3.3 Payment of Withholding Tax. Any required Withholding Tax
may be paid in cash or with Common Stock in accordance with Sections 8.3.1 and
8.3.2.

               8.3.4 Exchange Act Compliance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company shall have the right to reject payment in the form of Common Stock if in
the opinion of counsel for the Company, (i) it could result in an event of
"recapture" under Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or (ii)
such shares of Common Stock may not be sold or transferred to the Company.

     9. Transfer. Except as may be set forth in the next sentence of this
Section or in the Agreement, the Option shall not be transferable by Employee
other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and the Option
shall be exercisable, during Employee's lifetime, only by Employee (or, to the
extent of legal incapacity or incompetency, Employee's guardian or legal
representative). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Employee, with the approval of
the Board of Directors, may transfer all or a portion of the Option (i) (A) by
gift, for no consideration, or (B)

                                       5

pursuant to a domestic relations order, in either case, to or for the benefit of
Employee's "Immediate Family" (as defined below), or (ii) to an entity in which
Employee and/or members of Employee's Immediate Family own more than fifty
percent of the voting interest, in exchange for an interest in that entity,
subject to such limits as the Board of Directors may establish, and the
transferee shall remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to
the Option prior to such transfer. The term "Immediate Family" shall mean any
child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former
spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law,
daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or sister-in-law, including adoptive
relationships, any person sharing Employee's household (other than a tenant or
employee), a trust in which these persons have more than fifty percent
beneficial interest, and a foundation in which these persons (or Employee)
control the management of the assets.

               (i) the Company, by appropriate and all required action, is duly

to Employee in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, will be duly and
validly issued and fully paid and non-assessable.

Common Stock issuable pursuant to a stock option plan or other equity incentive
plan on Form S-8 (or other applicable form) under the 1933 Act, the Company, at
its expense, will use its best efforts to effect the registration under the 1933

to the extent the Company possesses or may possess such information or can
acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense necessary to verify the
accuracy of the information obtained pursuant to clause (ii) above;

               (v) he is aware that the Company shall place stop transfer orders
with its transfer agent against the transfer of the Option Shares in the absence
of registration under the 1933 Act or an exemption therefrom as provided herein;
and

               (vi) if, at the time of issuance of the Option Shares, the
issuance of such shares have not been registered under the 1933 Act, the
certificates evidencing the Option Shares shall bear the following legends:

                                       7

the contrary notwithstanding, Employee hereby agrees that he shall not sell,
transfer by any means or otherwise dispose of the Option Shares acquired by him
without registration under the 1933 Act, or in the event that they are not so
registered, unless (i) an exemption from the 1933 Act registration requirements
is available thereunder, (ii) Employee has furnished the Company with notice of
such proposed transfer and the Company's legal counsel, in its reasonable
opinion, shall deem such proposed transfer to be so exempt, and (iii) such

                              RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS

         4.1 Nondisclosure of Trade Secrets and Confidential Information. In the
course of Executive's employment by the Company, Executive has had access to and
will have access to the Company's most sensitive and most valuable trade
secrets, proprietary information, and confidential information concerning the
Company and its subsidiaries, their present and future business plans,
development and programming projects, customers, sponsors, advertisers, multiple
system operator (MSO) relationships and business affairs all of which constitute
valuable business assets of the Company, the use, application or disclosure of
any of which would cause substantial and possibly irreparable damage to the
business and asset value of the Company. Accordingly, Executive accepts and
agrees to be bound by the following provisions:

          (a) At any time, upon the request of the Company and in any event upon
     the termination of employment, Executive shall deliver to the Company all
     memoranda, notes, records, drawings, manuals, files or other documents, and

     Trade Secrets and any other property or files belonging to the Company or
     any of its subsidiaries that are in the possession of Executive, whether
     made or compiled by Executive or furnished to or acquired by Executive from
     the Company.

          (b) In order to protect the Company's Trade Secrets and Confidential
     Information, Executive agrees that:

               (i) Executive shall hold in confidence the Trade Secrets of the
          Company. Except in the performance of services for the Company,
          Executive shall not, for so long as the Trade Secrets remain "trade
          secrets" under applicable law, use,

                                       7

          disclose, reproduce, distribute, transmit, reverse engineer,
          decompile, disassemble, or transfer the Trade Secrets of the Company
          or any portion thereof.

               (ii) Executive shall hold in confidence the Confidential
          Information of the Company. Except in the performance of services for
          the Company, Executive shall not at any time during his employment
          with the Company and for a period of three (3) years thereafter, use,
          disclose, reproduce, distribute, transmit, reverse engineer,
          decompile, disassemble, or transfer the Confidential Information of
          the Company or any portion thereof.

     4.2 Return of Documents and Property. On the Termination Date, Executive
shall return to the Company all property belonging to the Company, including,
but not limited to, the original and any copy (regardless of the manner in which
it is recorded) of all information provided by the Company to Executive or which
Executive has developed or collected in the scope of his employment, as well as
all Company-issued equipment, supplies, accessories, vehicles, keys,
instruments, tools, devices, computers, cell phones, pagers, materials,
documents, plans, records, notebooks, drawings or papers.

     4.3 Reasonableness. Executive has carefully considered the nature and
extent of the restrictions upon him and the rights and remedies conferred on the
Company under this Agreement, and Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

          (a) the restrictions and covenants contained herein, and the rights
     and remedies conferred upon the Company, are necessary to protect the
     goodwill and other value of the business of the Company;

          (b) the restrictions placed upon Executive hereunder are fair and
     reasonable, will not prevent him from earning a livelihood, and place no
     greater restraint upon Executive than is reasonably necessary to secure the
     business and goodwill of the Company;

          (c) the Company is relying upon the restrictions and covenants
     contained herein in continuing to make available to Executive information
     concerning the business of the Company;

                                       8

          (d) Executive's employment hereunder places him in a position of
     confidence and trust with the Company and its employees, customers and
     suppliers; and

          (e) The provisions of this Article 4 shall be interpreted so as to
     protect the Trade Secrets and Confidential Information, and to secure for
     the Company the exclusive benefits of the work performed on behalf of the
     Company by Executive under this Agreement, and not to unreasonably limit
     his ability to engage in employment and consulting activities in
     noncompetitive areas which do not endanger the Company's legitimate
     interests expressed in this Agreement.

     4.4 Remedy for Breach. Executive acknowledges and agrees that his breach of
any of the covenants contained in this Article 4 of this Agreement will cause
irreparable injury to the Company and that remedies at law available to the
Company for any actual or threatened breach by Executive of such covenants will
be inadequate and that the Company shall be entitled to specific performance of
the covenants in this Article 4 or injunctive relief against activities in
violation of this Article 4 by temporary or permanent injunction or other
appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, without the necessity of proving
actual damages. This provision with respect to injunctive relief shall not
diminish the right of the Company to claim and recover monetary damages against
Executive for any breach of this Agreement, in addition to injunctive relief.
Executive acknowledges and agrees that the covenants contained in this Article 4
shall be construed as agreements independent of any other provision of this or
any other contract between the parties hereto, and that the existence of any
claim or cause of action by Executive against the Company, whether predicated
upon this or any other contract, shall not constitute a defense to the
enforcement by the Company of said covenants.

     4.5 No Conflicting Obligations. Executive represents and warrants to the
Company that his is not now under any obligation of a contractual or other
nature to any person or entity which is inconsistent or in conflict with this
Agreement, or which would prevent, limit or impair in any way the performance by
him of his obligations hereunder.

     4.6 Intellectual Property. Executive acknowledges and agrees that all
Employee Works produced by Executive during Executive's employment with the
Company shall be considered "works for hire" as such term is defined in 17
U.S.C. Section 101, et seq. Executive

                                       9

hereby assigns to the Company all right, title and interest whatsoever in and to
any and all Employee Works, including all worldwide copyrights, trade secrets,
patent rights, and all confidential, proprietary and property rights therein,
and Executive will execute, without requiring the Company to provide any further
consideration therefor, such patent applications (including continuations and
related materials), confirmatory assignments, instruments and documents as the
Company deems necessary or desirable in order to effect such assignment and to
protect and enforce such rights. The term "Employee Works" as used in this
Agreement means any and all works of authorship, inventions, discoveries,
improvements, designs, techniques, and work product, whether or not patentable,
and in whatever form, which are created, made, developed or reduced to practice,
or caused to be created, made, developed or reduced to practice by Executive
during the period of time that Executive is employed by the Company, that relate
in any way to the current or future business of the Company or its Affiliates,
and that result from any work performed by Executive for the Company or its
Affiliates. The obligation of Executive to execute materials to effect
assignment of Employee Works shall survive termination of Executive's employment
with the Company.

                                       5.

                            TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT

     5.1 Termination by Company.

          (a) The Company shall have the right to terminate Executive's
     employment under this Agreement at any time, with or without Cause, and
     with or without prior written notice to Executive.

          (b) If the Company terminates Executive's employment with Cause, the
     Company shall have no further obligation to Executive except to pay to
     Executive Executive's Base Salary through the Termination Date to the
     extent not theretofore paid, which salary shall be paid in a lump sum
     within 30 days after the Termination Date.

          (c) If the Company terminates Executive's employment without Cause,
     the Company shall be obligated to pay to Executive the following amounts:
     (i) Executive's Base Salary through the Termination Date to the extent not
     theretofore paid, which salary

                                       10

     shall be paid in a lump sum within 30 days after the Termination Date; and

     under this Agreement without any hope or expectation of an ability to
     resume such duties during the term as determined by Employee's treating
     physician. If Employee's employment is terminated due to death or total and
     permanent disability, Employee or Employee's estate, as the case may be,
     shall be entitled to receive (i) his then current periodic compensation for
     a period of three (3) months following the date of such termination, based
     upon the per annum compensation set forth in this Agreement as his base
     salary. The timing and manner of payment of such compensation shall be in
     accordance with the normal salary payment arrangement then in effect as to
     Employee prior to the termination.

          (b) For purposes of this provision, the term "temporary disability"
     shall mean an infirmity preventing Employee from performing his duties
     under this Agreement that cannot or is not considered to be total and

     temporarily disabled, this Agreement shall not be terminated and Employee
     shall be entitled to receive (i) his then current base salary during the
     first two months of such disability, based on the then current periodic
     compensation payable to Employee under the terms of this Agreement. The
     timing and manner of payment of such compensation shall be in accordance
     with the normal salary payment arrangements then in effect as to Employee
     prior to the termination. No additional compensation shall be paid to
     Employee until he is able to perform his

                                       11

     duties on a full or part time basis, provided that nay benefits such as
     health insurance normally provided in whole or in part by Employer shall
     continue to be provided by the Employer for a period of up to six months of
     temporary disability. In the event that Executive is not able to perform
     his duties on a full time basis for a consecutive period of six months from
     the date of the temporary disability then this Agreement shall
     automatically terminate and the Company shall pay to Executive his Base
     Salary through the Termination Date to the extent not theretofore paid,
     which salary shall be paid in a lump sum within 30 days after the
     Termination Date; and

          (c) Any unpaid bonus payment due Executive for any fiscal year ending
     prior to the fiscal year in which the Agreement is terminated.

     5.3 Termination by Executive. Executive shall have the right to voluntarily
terminate his employment for any reason, at any time, upon sixty (60) days'
prior written notice to the Company.

     circumstances constituting Good Reason, the Company shall be obligated to
     pay to Executive the following amounts: (a) Executive's Base Salary through
     the Termination Date to the extent not theretofore paid, which salary shall
     be paid in a lump sum within 30 days after the Termination Date; and (ii)
     severance pay equivalent to Executive's Base Salary for the remainder of
     the period ending on the earlier of one year from the Termination Date or
     three years from the Effective Date, which shall be paid in installments in
     accordance with the Company's standard payroll practices.

          (b) In the event Executive terminates his employment under
     circumstances not constituting Good Reason, the Company shall have no
     further obligation to Executive except to pay to Executive Executive's Base
     Salary through the Termination Date to the extent not theretofore paid,
     which salary shall be paid in a lump sum within 30 days after the
     Termination Date.

termination of Executive's employment under this Section 5 (whether initiated by
Executive or the Company, with or without Cause), Executive agrees to cooperate
with the Company in transitioning his duties to any successor appointed by the
Company and to provide the Company with information about the ongoing business
activities of the Company. In the event that the Company requests

                                       12
