                                   The Credits

     2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments.

         (a) Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set
forth herein, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees to make Revolving Credit Loans
to the Borrower from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability
Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in such Lender's
Revolving Credit Loans exceeding such Lender's maximum Revolving Credit
Commitment; provided that the total Revolving Credit Exposure (after giving
effect to any requested Revolving Credit Borrowing) shall not at any time exceed
the total Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject
to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay
and reborrow Revolving Credit Loans.

         (b) Revolving Credit Commitment Increases.

             (i)  In the event that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit
     Commitments as of the Closing Date is less than the Revolving Credit
     Maximum Amount, the Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from
     time to time prior to the Revolving Credit Conversion Date, by delivering
     written notice to the Administrative Agent, to request that the Revolving
     Credit Commitments be increased by an amount (an "Revolving Credit
     Commitment Increase") up to but not exceeding the difference between (x)
     the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount and (y) the aggregate amount of the
     Revolving Credit Commitments as of the date of such request for an
     Revolving Credit Commitment Increase.

             (ii) Upon receipt of a written request from the Borrower, the
     Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger shall attempt to arrange
     and syndicate such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, by contacting one
     or more new lenders (the "New Lenders") or one or more existing Lenders to
     determine whether such New Lenders desire to enter into Revolving Credit
     Commitments, and/or whether any such existing Lender, in its sole
     discretion, desires to increase the aggregate amount of its Revolving
     Credit Commitments. Each such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be
     arranged and syndicated by the Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead
     Arranger, and any New Lenders shall be selected by the Administrative Agent
     and the Sole Lead Arranger in consultation with the Borrower. The
     Administrative Agent's and the Sole Lead Arranger's agreements to arrange
     and syndicate any such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall not be
     deemed to constitute a commitment, or an offer, to provide, such Revolving
     Credit Commitment Increase or a representation, direct or implied, that
     such arrangement and syndication will be successful. The Borrower shall pay
     to the Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger such fees and
     expenses in connection with arranging and syndicating each such Revolving
     Credit Commitment Increase, as may be agreed by the Borrower, the
     Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger, to achieve a successful
     syndication of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, and no portion of
     such fees shall be allocable to any persons other than the

                                       39

<PAGE>

     Administrative Agent, the Sole Lead Arranger, a Lender increasing the
     aggregate amount of its Revolving Credit Commitments or the New Lenders,
     unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead
     Arranger. The Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger shall have no
     liability to the Borrower or the Lenders if the Administrative Agent and
     the Sole Lead Arranger are unable to successfully arrange and syndicate any
     requested Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. The Borrower may request
     Revolving Credit Commitment Increases on any number of occasions, subject
     to the conditions and provisions set forth herein. No Lender shall have any
     obligation to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment.

          (iii) If the Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger are able
     to successfully arrange and syndicate any requested Revolving Credit
     Commitment Increase, such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall become
     effective on the date specified by the Administrative Agent (each such date
     being referred to a "Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date") provided
     that (x) no Default shall exist on the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase
     Date both before and after giving effect to such proposed Revolving Credit
     Commitment Increase; (y) the Borrower shall have paid all fees and expenses
     in connection with the arrangement and syndication of such Revolving Credit
     Commitment Increase; and (z) the Borrower shall have delivered or caused to
     be delivered to the Administrative Agent any certificates or other
     documents reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in connection
     with such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase including amendments to
     Mortgages and endorsements to title insurance policies or new title
     insurance policies (if and to the extent it is determined that new title
     policies are necessary to insure the lien of the Mortgages with respect to
     the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase). In the event the Administrative
     Agent and the Sole Lead Arranger shall be unable to successfully arrange
     and syndicate any requested Revolving Credit Commitment Increase within
     thirty days of the date of any written request by the Borrower for such
     Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, such request by the Borrower shall be
     deemed to have expired and the Administrative Agent and the Sole Lead
     Arranger shall have no further obligation to continue such arrangement and
     syndication efforts; provided that the expiration of such thirty-day period
     shall not limit the Borrower's right to make one or more additional
     requests for an Revolving Credit Commitment Increase.

          (iv)  On each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Date, subject to
     the satisfaction of the foregoing terms and conditions, and subject to the
     limitations set forth in clause (v) of this Section 2.1(b): (w) each New
     Lender shall enter into one or more Lender Joinder Agreements or other
     documents in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
     Administrative Agent, and upon execution of such Lender Joinder Agreements
     or other documents, such New Lender shall be deemed to be a "Lender" under
     this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (x) the Revolving Credit
     Commitments shall be adjusted to take into account the Revolving Credit
     Commitments of the New Lenders and the increases, if any, of the Revolving
     Credit Commitments of the existing Lenders, and (y) each existing Lender
     who is increasing their Revolving Credit Commitments shall have returned to
     the Administrative Agent for cancellation its Revolving Credit Note, and
     the Borrower shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent
     for the benefit of each New Lender and each existing Lender who

                                       40

<PAGE>

          is increasing its Revolving Credit Commitments a new Revolving Credit
          Note, in each case, in the aggregate principal amount of such Lender's
          Revolving Credit Commitment after giving effect to the Revolving
          Credit Commitment Increase. Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the
          Administrative Agent to revise Schedule 2.1 on each Revolving Credit
          Commitment Increase Date to reflect such increase without an amendment
          to this Agreement.

                  (v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this
          Section 2.1(b), in no event shall any Revolving Credit Commitment
          Increase result in (1) any increase or decrease in the amount of any
          Lender's Revolving Credit Commitment without such Lender's prior
          written consent, or (2) the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit
          Commitments exceeding the Revolving Credit Maximum Amount.

          2.2 Loans and Borrowings.

              (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of
Loans made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective
Commitments. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by
it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided
that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for any other Lender's failure to make Loans as required.

              (b) Subject to Section 2.13, each Borrowing shall be comprised
entirely of Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans as the Borrower may request in
accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any LIBOR Loan by
causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such
Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation
of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement.

              (c) At the commencement of each Interest Period for a LIBOR
Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount at least equal to
$500,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000. At the time that each Base Rate
Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is at
least equal to $100,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000; provided that (i) a
Base Rate Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans may be in an aggregate amount that
is equal to the entire unused balance of the total Revolving Credit Commitments,
and (ii) a Base Rate Borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans may be in an amount
that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as
contemplated by Section 2.4(e). Borrowings of more than one Type may be
outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more
than a total of ten LIBOR Borrowings outstanding.

          2.3 Requests for Borrowings.

              (a) To request a Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (i) in the case of a LIBOR
Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, three Business
Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that LIBOR Borrowings
shall not be available on the Closing Date unless otherwise consented to by the
Administrative Agent in writing, or (ii) in the case of a Base Rate Borrowing
not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, one Business Day before
the

                                       41

<PAGE>

date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of a Base Rate
Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by
Section 2.4(e) may be given not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts
time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing
Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or
telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form
approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

         (b) Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify
the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:

             (i)   the aggregate amount of such Borrowing;

             (ii)  the effective date of such Borrowing, which shall be a
     Business Day;

             (iii) whether such Borrowing is to be a Base Rate Borrowing or a
     LIBOR Borrowing;

             (iv)  in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, the initial Interest Period
     to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the
     definition of the term "Interest Period";

             (v)   the location and number of the Borrower's account to which
     funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of
     Section 2.5;

             (vi)  a detailed calculation of the Senior Leverage Ratio and,
     commencing on the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Total Leverage
     Ratio, in each case based on the Senior Debt or the Total Debt (in each
     case, after giving effect to such Borrowing), as applicable, and EBITDA of
     the Credit Parties for the period of four consecutive fiscal quarters
     reported in the Compliance Certificate most recently delivered to the
     Administrative Agent demonstrating (A) that the Senior Leverage Ratio
     (after giving effect to such Borrowing) shall not exceed (1) for the period
     from the Closing Date to the date of delivery of the first Compliance
     Certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 6.1(c), the
     maximum Senior Leverage Ratio permitted on the Closing Date pursuant to
     Section 5.1(m)(ii) and (2) thereafter, the maximum Senior Leverage Ratio
     permitted under Section 7.10(b) for the fiscal quarter most recently ended
     and (B) that the Total Leverage Ratio (after giving effect to such
     Borrowing) shall not exceed the maximum Total Leverage Ratio permitted
     under Section 7.10(a) for the fiscal quarter most recently ended; provided
     that for purposes of calculating such ratios (x) prior to the delivery of
     the first Compliance Certificate required to be delivered hereunder, the
     Credit Parties shall use EBITDA reported in the last Compliance Certificate
     provided under the Existing Credit Agreement; provided that if the Borrower
     delivers a Compliance Certificate for the four-fiscal quarter period ended
     June 30, 2002 giving pro forma effect to the consummation of the El Dorado
     Acquisitions and the Guajillo Acquisitions as if such Acquisitions had
     occurred at the beginning of the applicable period and after reflecting
     certain expense deductions in connection with such Acquisitions reasonably
     acceptable to the Administrative Agent, then the Credit Parties shall use
     EBITDA as

                                       42

<PAGE>

     reported in such Compliance Certificate and (y) for Loans being requested
     in connection with an Acquisition such ratios shall be calculated giving
     pro forma effect to the Acquisition as if such Acquisition has occurred at
     the beginning of the applicable period and after reflecting certain expense
     deductions in connection with such Acquisition reasonably acceptable to the
     Administrative Agent; and

              (vii) at any time when the outstanding Loans exceed $150,000,000
     minus the aggregate amount of all "Net Proceeds" of "Asset Sales" and
     "Relocations" applied by the Borrower or any of its "Restricted
     Subsidiaries" after the Closing Date to repay any term "Indebtedness" under
     any "Credit Facility" or to repay any revolving credit "Indebtedness" under
     any "Credit Facility" and effect a corresponding commitment reduction under
     a "Credit Facility" pursuant to Section 4.10 of the Senior Subordinated
     Note Indenture (all of the foregoing terms in quotation marks are used as
     defined in the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture), (A) a certification
     that the Loans, after giving effect to such Borrowing Request, are not
     incurred in violation of the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture, including
     a detailed calculation of the Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Senior
     Subordinated Note Indenture) demonstrating that such Leverage Ratio does
     not exceed 7.0 to 1 after giving effect to the Borrowing Request and (B)
     the Borrowing Request therefor must be in writing (and no telephonic
     Borrowing Requests shall be permitted).

         (c)  If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the
requested Borrowing shall be a Base Rate Borrowing. If no Interest Period is
specified with respect to any requested LIBOR Borrowing, then the Borrower shall
be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month's duration. Promptly
following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.3,
the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of
the amount of such Lender's Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

     2.4 Letters of Credit.

         (a)  General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, in
addition to the Revolving Credit Loans provided for in Section 2.1(a), the
Borrower may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its own account by an
Issuing Lender, in a form reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Lender, at any
time and from time to time during the Revolving Credit Availability Period. In
addition to such form, at the time of such request, the Borrower shall also
deliver to the Administrative Agent the information required to be delivered
pursuant to Section 2.3(b)(vi) (assuming, for the calculation of the Senior
Leverage Ratio and the Total Leverage Ratio, the issuance of the requested
Letter of Credit) and, if applicable, Section 2.3(b)(vii). Letters of Credit
issued hereunder shall constitute utilization of the Revolving Credit
Commitments. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions
of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit
application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by
the Borrower with, an Issuing Lender relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms
and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

         (b)  Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain
Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an

                                       43

<PAGE>

outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or send by
telephonic facsimile (fax) (or transmit by electronic communication, if
arrangements for doing so have been approved by such Issuing Lender) to an
Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent (two Business Days before the date
of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice
requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of
Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire
(which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.4), the amount of such
Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof, whether such
Letter of Credit is a documentary or trade Letter of Credit or a standby Letter
of Credit, and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend,
renew or extend such Letter of Credit. If requested by such Issuing Lender, the
Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing
Lender's standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A
Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower
shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such
issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure of the
Issuing Lender (determined for these purposes without giving effect to the
participations therein of the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to paragraph (d)
of this Section 2.4) shall not exceed $5,000,000 and (ii) the total Revolving
Credit Exposure shall not exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments. If the
Issuing Lender is not the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender shall notify
the Administrative Agent promptly in writing of the issuance, amendment, renewal
or extension of any Letter of Credit, with a summary of the pertinent terms
thereof and shall provide the Administrative Agent with a copy of such Letter of
Credit and related application and any other documentation related thereto.

         (c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (without giving
effect to any extension thereof by reason of an interruption of business) at or
prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date 365 days, in the
case of standby Letters of Credit, or 180 days, in the case of documentary or
trade Letters of Credit, after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit
(or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, 365 days or 180 days, as
applicable, after such renewal or extension) provided that any such Letter of
Credit may provide for automatic extensions thereof to a date not later than 365
days, in the case of standby Letters of Credit, or 180 days, in the case of
documentary or trade Letters of Credit, beyond its current expiration date, and
(ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity
Date. No Letter of Credit may be extended beyond the date that is five Business
Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

         (d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an
amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) by an Issuing
Lender, and without any further action on the part of such Issuing Lender, such
Issuing Lender hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving
Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Lender, a participation in such Letter
of Credit equal to such Revolving Credit Lender's Applicable Percentage of the
aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In
consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent,
for the account of such Issuing Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender's
Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender and
not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of
this Section 2.4, or of any reimbursement payment required to be

                                       44

<PAGE>

refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Credit Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant
to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional
and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any
amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and
that each such payment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such
Issuing Lender shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or
reduction whatsoever.

               (e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender shall make any LC
Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse
(each a "Reimbursement Obligation") such Issuing Lender in respect of such LC
Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC
Disbursement not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, on (i) the
Business Day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement, if such
notice is received prior to 11:00 a.m., Boston, Massachusetts time; or (ii) the
Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such
notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time, provided that the
Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request
in accordance with Section 2.3 that such payment be financed with a Revolving
Credit Base Rate Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so
financed, the Borrower's obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and
replaced by the resulting Revolving Credit Base Rate Borrowing.

         If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative
Agent shall notify each Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable LC
Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such
Revolving Credit Lender's Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following
receipt of such notice, each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the
Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.5 with respect to
Revolving Credit Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.5 shall apply to the
payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders, treating each such payment
as a Loan for this purpose), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to
the applicable Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving
Credit Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any
payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent
shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent
that the Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph
to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender
as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender
pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Lender for any LC
Disbursement shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of
its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

           (f) Obligations Absolute.

               (i)  The Borrower's obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as
     provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.4 shall be absolute,
     unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in
     accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances
     whatsoever and irrespective of (A) any lack of validity or enforceability
     of any Letter of Credit, or any term or provision therein, (B) any draft or
     other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged,
     fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue
     or inaccurate in any respect, (C) payment by the Issuing Lender under a
     Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that
     does not comply strictly with the terms of such Letter of Credit and (D)
     any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any
     of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.4,
     constitute a legal or equitable discharge of the Borrower's obligations
     hereunder.

               (ii) Neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender nor Issuing
     Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or
     responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer
     of any Letter of Credit by the Issuing Lender or any payment or failure to
     make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances
     referred to in clause (f)(i) above), or any error, omission, interruption,
     loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other
     communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any
     document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in
     interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes
     beyond the control of the Issuing Lender; provided that nothing in this
     Section 2.4 shall be construed to excuse the Issuing Lender from liability
     to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to
     consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the
     Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the
     Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Lender's gross negligence or
     willful misconduct when determining whether drafts and other documents
     presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. Subject
     in all respects to the foregoing, the parties hereto expressly agree that:

                    (A) the Issuing Lender may accept documents that appear on
               their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a
               Letter of Credit without responsibility for further
               investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the
               contrary, and may make payment upon presentation of documents
               that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with
               the terms of such Letter of Credit;

                    (B) the Issuing Lender shall have the right, in its sole
               discretion, to decline to accept such documents and to decline to
               make such payment if such documents are not in strict compliance
               with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

                    (C) this clause (f)(ii) shall establish the standard of care
               to be exercised by the Issuing Lender when determining whether
               drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit
               comply with the terms thereof (and

                                       46

<PAGE>

         the parties hereto hereby waive, to the extent permitted by applicable
         law, any standard of care inconsistent with the foregoing).

         (g) Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Lender shall, promptly
following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a
demand for payment under any Letter of Credit. The Issuing Lender shall promptly
notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by
telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Lender has made or
will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or
delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to
reimburse the Issuing Lender and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to
any such LC Disbursement.

         (h) Interim Interest. If the Issuing Lender shall make any LC
Disbursement in respect of any Letter of Credit, then, unless the Borrower shall
reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made,
the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including
the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the
Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable
to Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to
reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section 2.4, then interest calculated in accordance with Section 2.12(c) shall
accrue on the unpaid amount thereof. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph
shall be for the account of the Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on
and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to
paragraph (e) of this Section 2.4 to reimburse the Issuing Lender shall be for
the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

         (i) Cash Collateralization. If either (i) an Event of Default shall
occur and be continuing and the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative
Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant
to this paragraph, or (ii) the Borrower shall be required to provide cover for
LC Exposure pursuant to Section 2.9(a) or 2.10(b), the Borrower shall
immediately deposit with the Issuing Lender an amount in cash equal to, in the
case of an Event of Default, the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued
and unpaid interest thereon and, in the case of cover pursuant to Section 2.9(a)
or 2.10(b), the amount required under Section 2.9(a) or 2.10(b), as the case may
be; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become
effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and
payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any
Event of Default described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 8.1. Such deposit
shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral in the first instance
for the LC Exposure under this Agreement and thereafter for the payment of any
other obligations of the Credit Parties hereunder.

     2.5 Funding of Borrowings.

         (a) Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the
proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00
noon, Boston, Massachusetts time to the account of the Administrative Agent most
recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. The
Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by promptly
crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower
maintained with the Administrative Agent in Boston, Massachusetts and

                                       47

<PAGE>

designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that
Revolving Credit Base Rate Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC
Disbursement under any Letter of Credit as provided in Section 2.4(e) shall be
remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender.

         (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not
make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender's share of such
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such
share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section
2.5 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a
corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share
of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the
applicable Lender (and if the applicable Lender fails to pay immediately upon
demand, the Borrower) agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on
demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and
including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent,
then such amount shall constitute such Lender's Loan included in such Borrowing.
Nothing in this Section 2.5 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its
obligation to fulfill its Commitments to the extent required by this Agreement
or to prejudice any rights that the Borrower may have against any Lender as a
result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

     2.6 Interest Elections.

         (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the
applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, shall have
an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter,
the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to
continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, may elect
Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.6. The Borrower may
elect different options for continuations and conversions with respect to
different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion
shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such
Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a
separate Borrowing.

         (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.6, the Borrower
shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time
that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.3(a) if the Borrower
were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made
on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election
Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or
telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request
signed by the Borrower.

         (c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify
the following information in compliance with Section 2.2:

             (i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies
     and, if different options for continuations or conversions are being
     elected with respect to

                                       48

<PAGE>

     different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each
     resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant
     to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting
     Borrowing);

              (ii)  the effective date of the election made pursuant to such
     Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

              (iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Base Rate
     Borrowing or a LIBOR Borrowing; and

              (iv)  if the resulting Borrowing is a LIBOR Borrowing, the
     Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such
     election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the
     term "Interest Period".

If any such Interest Election Request requests a LIBOR Borrowing but does not
specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected
an Interest Period of one month's duration.

          (d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the
Administrative Agent shall advise each affected Lender of the details thereof
and of such Lender's portion of each resulting Borrowing.

          (e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election
Request with respect to a LIBOR Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided
herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to
a Base Rate Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at
the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as
an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted
to or continued as a LIBOR Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each LIBOR
Borrowing shall be converted to a Base Rate Borrowing at the end of the Interest
Period applicable thereto.

          (f) The Borrower shall not be obligated to deliver a Borrowing Request
in connection with any election to convert any Borrowing to a different Type or
to continue any Borrowing or, in the case of a LIBOR Borrowing, any election of
an Interest Period therefor pursuant this Section 2.6.

     2.7  Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

          (a) Unless previously terminated in accordance with the terms hereof,
the Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate at the close of business on the
Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

          (b) The aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be
automatically reduced at the close of business on each Revolving Credit
Commitment Reduction Date set forth in column (A) below, each a "Revolving
Credit Commitment Reduction Date", by the amount set forth in column (B) below,
in each case, opposite such Revolving Credit Commitment Reduction Date:

                Commitment Reduction Date       Commitment Reduction

           June 30, and September 30, 2005         $ 5,333,333.33

           March 31, June 30, September 30,
           and December 31, 2007                   $ 8,000,000.00

           March 31, June 30, September 30,
           and December 31, 2008                   $ 8,000,000.00

           March 31, and June 30, 2009             $21,333,333.33

           September 30, 2009                      $21,333,333.34

; provided that, for each Revolving Credit Commitment Reduction Date, the amount
of the reduction to the Revolving Credit Commitments on such date shall be
increased by an amount equal to the product of (x) the aggregate Revolving
Credit Commitment Increases as of the Revolving Credit Conversion Date, if any,
times (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the amount of the reduction to
the Revolving Credit Commitments on such date as set forth in column (B) above
and the denominator of which is the aggregate original amount of the Revolving
Credit Commitments. The amount of any optional reductions of Revolving Credit
Commitments under Section 2.7(c) shall be applied to reduce all remaining
Revolving Credit Commitment reductions under this Section 2.7(b) in the order of
such scheduled reductions.

           (c) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time reduce, the
Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an
amount that is at least equal to $500,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000,
and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Credit
Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent repayment in accordance
with Section 2.9 or prepayment in accordance with Section 2.10 of the Loans, the
total Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the total Revolving Credit
Commitments.

           (d) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any
election to terminate or reduce Commitments under paragraph (c) of this Section
2.7 at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination
or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly
following receipt of any notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant
to this Section 2.7 shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination
of Revolving Credit

                                       50

<PAGE>

Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned
upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may
be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to
the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any
termination or reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be permanent.
Each reduction of Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made ratably among the
Revolving Credit Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit
Commitments.

     2.8 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

         (a) If any Lender or the Issuing Lender requests compensation under
Section 2.14, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any
Lender or the Issuing Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of
any Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender or
the Issuing Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending
office for funding or booking its Loans or Letters of Credit hereunder, or to
assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches
or Affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender or the Issuing Lender, such
designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant
to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not
subject such Lender or the Issuing Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender or the Issuing
Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses
incurred by any Lender or the Issuing Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.

         (b) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14, or if the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any
Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16,
or if any Lender defaults in its obligation to fund Loans hereunder, then the
Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the
Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without
recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in
Section 10.4), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to
an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrower
shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and,
if a Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, the Issuing Lender), which
consents shall not unreasonably be withheld or delayed, (ii) such Lender shall
have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans (and participations in LC Disbursements), accrued interest thereon,
accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee
(to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or
the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any
such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.14 or
payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will
result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be
required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a
result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the
Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

         (c) If a Lender (a "Non-Consenting Lender") refuses to consent to an
amendment, modification or waiver of this Agreement that, pursuant to Section
10.2, requires

                                       51

<PAGE>

consent of 100% of the Lenders (any such Lender, a "Subject Lender"), so long as
(i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and the Borrower
has obtained a written commitment from another Lender or an Eligible Assignee to
purchase at par (plus accrued interest, fees and other amounts payable to the
Subject Lender hereunder) the Subject Lender's Loans and assume the Subject
Lender's Commitments and all other obligations of the Subject Lender hereunder,
(ii) such Lender is not an Issuing Lender with respect to any Letters of Credit
outstanding (unless all such Letters of Credit are terminated or arrangements
satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (such as a "back-to-back" letter of credit)
are made), (iii) at such time there is no more than one Non-Consenting Lender
and (iv) if applicable, the Subject Lender is unwilling to withdraw its refusal
to consent within 2 Business Days after receipt by the Subject Lender and
Administrative Agent of a written request to do so from the Borrower, the
Borrower may require the Subject Lender to assign all of its Loans and
Commitments to such other Lender, Lenders, Eligible Assignee or Eligible
Assignees pursuant to the provisions of Section 10.4, provided that, prior to or
concurrently with such replacement, (1) the Borrower has paid to the Subject
Lender all amounts required to be paid to such Lender under this Agreement
through the effective date of the assignment, (2) the processing fee required to
be paid by Section 10.4(b)(iv) shall have been paid by the Borrower or the
Assignee to Administrative Agent, (3) all of the requirements for such
assignment contained in Section 10.4, including the consent of Administrative
Agent (if required) and the receipt by Administrative Agent of an executed
Assignment and Acceptance Agreement (which each Subject Lender shall be
obligated to provide with respect to its interest in the Loans in connection
with the Borrower's exercise of its rights under this subsection) and other
supporting documents, have been fulfilled and (4) each assignee shall consent,
at the time of such assignment, to each matter in respect of which such Subject
Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing no Subject
Lender shall be obligated to assign its Loans unless such Subject Lender
receives payment of the purchase price and all other amounts described in clause
(i) above as a condition to such assignment.

     2.9 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

         (a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender the then
unpaid principal amount of such Lender's Revolving Credit Loans on the Revolving
Credit Maturity Date. In addition, if following any reduction in the Revolving
Credit Commitments or at any other time the aggregate principal amount of the
Revolving Credit Exposure shall exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit
Commitments, the Borrower shall first, repay Revolving Credit Loans, and second,
provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.4(i) in an aggregate
amount equal to such excess.

         (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an
account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender
resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal
and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

         (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall
record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest
due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender
hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received

                                       52

<PAGE>

by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each
Lender's share thereof.

          (d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph
(b) or (c) of this Section 2.9 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence
and amounts of the obligations recorded therein absent manifest error; provided
that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such
accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of
the Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

          (e) Prior to the Closing Date or if any Lender enters into a
Commitment after the Closing Date on the date of such Commitment, the Borrower
shall prepare, execute and deliver to each Revolving Credit Lender, a Revolving
Credit Note in the principal amount of such Lender's Revolving Credit
Commitment. Thereafter, the Loans of each Lender evidenced by each such
promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after
assignment pursuant to Section 10.4) be represented by one or more promissory
notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such
promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns)
unless, in connection with an assignment of all or any portion of a promissory
note and interest thereon, the assignee informs the Administrative Agent in
writing that it does not wish that its Loans be evidenced by promissory notes.

     2.10 Prepayment of Loans.

          (a) Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, without
premium or penalty (other than LIBOR Loan breakage costs as provided in Section
2.15), subject to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (d) of this Section
2.10 and provided that each such prepayment shall be in an amount that is at
least equal to $500,000 or any greater multiple of $100,000. Each prepayment of
Loans shall be applied in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 2.10.

          (b) Mandatory Prepayments. The Borrower shall make prepayments of the
Loans hereunder (and reduce the Commitments hereunder to the extent provided
below in clauses (i) and (ii)) as follows:

              (i) Sale of Assets. Without limiting the obligation of the
     Borrower to obtain the consent of the Required Lenders to any Disposition
     not otherwise permitted hereunder, the Borrower agrees, on or prior to the
     occurrence of any Disposition or series of Dispositions by any Credit Party
     with aggregate Net Cash Payments in excess of $3,500,000 in any fiscal
     year, to deliver to the Administrative Agent a statement certified by a
     Financial Officer of the Borrower, in form and detail reasonably
     satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of the estimated amount of the
     Net Cash Payments of such Disposition that will (on the date of such
     Disposition) be received by any Credit Party in cash, indicating on such
     certificate, whether the Borrower intends to reinvest such Net Cash
     Payments or will be prepaying the Loans, as hereinafter provided, and the
     Borrower will be obligated to either (A) reinvest such Net Cash Payments
     within 170 days after receipt into assets used in a Permitted Line of
     Business pursuant to one or more Capital Expenditures permitted hereunder
     or Acquisitions permitted hereunder; provided that no

                                       53

<PAGE>

          reinvestment of Net Cash Payments shall be permitted under this clause
          (A): (x) for the acquisition of fee interests in real property
          (excluding any real property received or acquired in any Acquisition
          or Relocation) in excess of $5,000,000 made in the aggregate after the
          Closing Date or (y) if and to the extent that such Net Cash Payments
          would be required to be used to repay any Subordinated Indebtedness or
          Holding Company Debt or purchase or repurchase any notes issued
          thereunder or (B) prepay the Loans hereunder (and provide cover for LC
          Exposure as specified in Section 2.4(i)), and the Commitments
          hereunder shall be subject to automatic reduction, as follows:

                    (x) within one Business Day after the date of such
                    Disposition, or on the date (the "Reinvestment Date") which
                    is 170 days after such date if the Borrower had indicated on
                    the certificate delivered as hereinabove required that it
                    intended to reinvest the Net Cash Payments of such
                    Disposition, in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such
                    estimated or non-reinvested (as applicable) amount of such
                    Net Cash Payments, to the extent received (and not
                    reinvested as provided above) by any Credit Party in cash on
                    the date of such Disposition or, if applicable, the
                    Reinvestment Date; and

                    (y) thereafter, quarterly, on the date of the delivery by
                    the Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section
                    6.1 of the financial statements for any quarterly fiscal
                    period or fiscal year, to the extent any Credit Party shall
                    receive Net Cash Payments during the quarterly fiscal period
                    ending on the date of such financial statements in cash
                    under deferred payment arrangements or Disposition
                    Investments entered into or received in connection with any
                    Disposition, an amount equal to (A) 100% of the aggregate
                    amount of such Net Cash Payments minus (B) any transaction
                    expenses associated with Dispositions and not previously
                    deducted in the determination of Net Cash Payments plus (or
                    minus, as the case may be) (C) any other adjustment received
                    or paid by any Credit Party pursuant to the respective
                    agreements giving rise to Dispositions and not previously
                    taken into account in the determination of the Net Cash
                    Payments.

                    (ii) Proceeds of Casualty Events. Upon the date 180 days
          following the receipt by any Credit Party of the proceeds of
          insurance, condemnation awards or other compensation in respect of any
          Casualty Event affecting any property of any Credit Party (or upon
          such earlier date as such Credit Party, as the case may be, shall have
          determined not to repair or replace the property affected by such
          Casualty Event), to the extent of Net Cash Payments in excess of
          $250,000 per occurrence and $500,000 for all occurrences after the
          Closing Date (except that such exclusions shall not apply after the
          occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default) the
          Borrower shall prepay the Loans (and provide cover for LC Exposure as
          specified in Section 2.4(i)), and, if applicable, the Commitments
          shall be subject to automatic reduction, in an aggregate amount, if
          any, equal to 100% of the Net Cash Payments from such Casualty Event
          not theretofore applied or committed to be applied to the repair or
          replacement of such property (it being understood that if Net Cash
          Payments committed to be applied are not

                                       54

<PAGE>

          in fact applied within 360 days after receipt thereof, then such Net
          Cash Payments shall be applied to the prepayment of Loans, cover for
          LC Exposure and, reduction of Commitments as provided in this clause
          (ii) at the expiration of such 360-day period), such prepayment and
          reduction to be effected in each case in the manner and to the extent
          specified in paragraph (c) of this Section 2.10.

                    (iii) On the date of the incurrence by the Borrower of any
          Indebtedness under the proviso to Section 7.1(k), the Borrower shall
          deliver to the Administrative Agent a statement certified by a
          financial officer of the Borrower, in form and detail reasonably
          satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, of the estimated amount of
          the net cash proceeds (net of all legal, underwriting and other fees,
          costs and expenses incurred in connection with the incurrence of such
          Indebtedness) from such incurrence of such Indebtedness that will (on
          the date of such incurrence of Indebtedness) be received by the
          Borrower and the Borrower will, prepay the Loans hereunder (and
          provide cover for LC Exposure as specified in Section 2.4(i)), with no
          reduction of the Commitments hereunder, on the date of such incurrence
          of Indebtedness, in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (A)
          100% of the net cash proceeds (net of all legal, underwriting and
          other fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
          incurrence of such Indebtedness) from such incurrence of Indebtedness
          received by the Borrower and (B) the sum of the aggregate amount of
          Loans outstanding plus LC Exposure then in effect, and such prepayment
          (other than the amount provided to cover LC Exposure) shall be shared
          and applied ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders in proportion
          to their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (with no reduction to
          the Revolving Credit Commitments).

               Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) in the event
          any radio or television station owned by any Credit Party is sold, as
          permitted by paragraph (f) of Section 7.4, during the continuance of
          any Event of Default, all Net Cash Payments shall be applied in the
          manner specified in paragraph (c) of this Section 2.10, and (ii) in
          the event that any of the Credit Parties shall have consummated (I)
          any "Asset Sale" (as defined in the Senior Subordinated Note
          Indenture) or (II) any "Sale of the Company" (as defined in the
          Holdings Securities Purchase Documents) that, in either case, would
          not be deemed a Disposition requiring a prepayment under this Section
          2.10(b), in any such case, the Credit Parties shall nonetheless prepay
          the Loans to the extent that the Senior Subordinated Note Indenture or
          the Holdings Securities Purchase Documents would require any
          prepayment or redemption of the Senior Subordinated Notes or any
          Holding Company Debt or warrants issued by any Holding Company
          pursuant to the Holdings Securities Purchase Documents, respectively.
          Prepayments of Loans (and cover for LC Exposure) and reductions of
          Commitments shall be effected in each case in the manner and to the
          extent specified in paragraph (c) of this Section 2.10.

               (c)  Application. The Borrower shall have the right at any time
to cause voluntary prepayments pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section to be
applied to prepay the Revolving Credit Loans, and such prepayment shall be
applied ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders in proportion to their
respective Revolving Credit Commitments (with no reduction to the Revolving
Credit Commitments). Subject to the preceding sentence and subject to the
prepayment made pursuant to the subsection (b)(iii) of this Section being
applied in

                                       55

<PAGE>

accordance with such subsection (b)(iii) (with no reduction to the Revolving
Credit Commitments), in the event of any optional prepayment of Borrowings
pursuant to subsection (a) of this Section, or any mandatory prepayment of Loans
pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section, the proceeds shall be applied as
follows:

               (i)  first, to the extent that Revolving Credit Exposure shall at
     such time exceed the total Revolving Credit Commitments, such prepayment
     shall be applied to the repayment of Revolving Credit Loans to be shared
     and applied ratably among the Revolving Credit Lenders in proportion to
     their respective Revolving Credit Commitments (with no reduction to the
     Revolving Credit Commitments); and

               (ii) second, (A) the amount of any optional prepayment shall be
     applied to the repayment of Revolving Credit Loans, and (B) the amount of
     any mandatory prepayment shall be applied first, to the repayment of
     Revolving Credit Loans and, second, to provide cover for LC Exposure, and,
     in the case of clause (B), to the simultaneous permanent reduction of the
     Revolving Credit Commitments, in each case to be shared and applied ratably
     among the Revolving Credit Lenders in proportion to their respective
     Revolving Credit Commitments. Each such reduction of the Revolving Credit
     Commitments shall be applied to reduce all remaining scheduled Revolving
     Credit Commitment reductions under Section 2.7(b) pro rata based upon the
     respective amounts of such scheduled reductions. Optional prepayments
     pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (c) shall not reduce the
     remaining scheduled Revolving Credit Commitment reductions.

           (d) Notification of Prepayments. The Borrower shall notify the
Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of any prepayment
under Sections 2.10(a) or 2.10(b) not later than 1:00 p.m., Boston,
Massachusetts time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, except
that prepayments of Base Rate Loans pursuant to Section 2.10(a) may be made upon
one Business Day's notice. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall
specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or
portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given
in connection with a conditional notice of termination of Revolving Credit
Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.7(d), then such notice of prepayment
may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with
Section 2.7. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a
Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents
thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing under paragraph (a) of this
Section 2.10 shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an
advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.2.

           (e) Prepayments Accompanied by Interest. Prepayments shall be
accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.12.

     2.11  Fees.

           (a) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at a rate per annum
equal to the percentage set forth below opposite the Commitment Utilization
Percentage with respect to each day (the "Commitment Fee Rate") of the daily
unused amount of the respective Revolving Credit

                                       56

<PAGE>

Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the date on which
the Effective Time shall occur to but excluding the date on which such Revolving
Credit Commitment terminates:

       Commitment Utilization Percentage             Commitment Fee Rate
       ---------------------------------             -------------------
           Less than 50%                                    0.500%

           Greater than or equal to 50%                     0.375%

The Commitment Fee Rate shall be calculated on each Quarterly Date for each day
occurring during the fiscal quarter then ending.

          (b) Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on each
Quarterly Date and on the date such Commitments terminate, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the Closing Date. All commitment fees shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 days and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

          (c) The Borrower agrees to pay with respect to Letters of Credit
outstanding hereunder the following fees:

              (i)  to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving
     Credit Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in
     Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at a rate per annum equal to the
     Applicable Margin then used in determining interest on Revolving Credit
     LIBOR Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender's LC Exposure
     (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
     Disbursements) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but
     excluding the later of the date on which such Lender's Revolving Credit
     Commitment terminates and the date on which there shall no longer be any
     Letters of Credit outstanding hereunder, and

              (ii) to the Issuing Lender (x) a fronting fee for its own account,
     equal to 0.25% per annum on the face amount of each Letter of Credit,
     payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date, and (y) the Issuing Lender's
     standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension
     of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.

Accrued participation fees shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Date
and on the date the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate, commencing on the
first such date to occur after the date hereof, provided that any such fees
accruing after the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitments terminate
shall be payable on demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual
number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

                                       57

<PAGE>

          (d) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its
own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed in
writing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

          (e) All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in
immediately available funds. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any
circumstances, absent manifest error in the determination thereof.

     2.12 Interest.

          (a) The Loans comprising each Base Rate Borrowing shall bear interest
at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

          (b) The Loans comprising each LIBOR Borrowing shall bear interest at a
rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect
for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

          (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) all amounts which are not paid
when due shall bear interest until paid in full at the Post-Default Rate and
(ii) during the period when any Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, immediately upon the delivery of written notice from the
Administrative Agent to the Borrower at the request of the Required Lenders the
principal of all Loans hereunder shall bear interest, after as well as before
judgment, at the Post-Default Rate.

          (d) Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each
Interest Payment Date for such Loan; provided that (i) interest accrued at the
Post-Default Rate shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment
or prepayment of any LIBOR Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid
or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment, (iii)
in the event of any conversion of any LIBOR Loan prior to the end of the current
Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the
effective date of such conversion and (iv) all accrued interest on Revolving
Credit Loans shall be payable upon expiration of the Revolving Credit
Commitments.

          (e) All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days, except that interest computed by reference to the Adjusted Base Rate
at times when the Adjusted Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be
computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in
each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the
first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Adjusted Base Rate,
Adjusted LIBO Rate or LIBO Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent,
and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

          (f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, the
aggregate interest, fees and other amounts required to be paid by the Borrower
to the Lenders or any Lender hereunder are hereby expressly limited so that in
no contingency or event whatsoever whether by reason of acceleration of maturity
of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby or otherwise, shall the amount paid or
agreed to be paid to the Lenders or any Lender for the use or the forbearance of
the Indebtedness evidenced hereby exceed the maximum permissible under
applicable law. If under or from any circumstances whatsoever, fulfillment of
any provision

                                       58

<PAGE>

hereof or of any of the other Loan Documents at the time of performance of such
provision shall be due, shall involve transcending the limit of such validity
prescribed by applicable law then the obligation to be fulfilled shall
automatically be reduced to the limits of such validity and if under or from
circumstances whatsoever the Lenders or any Lender should ever receive as
interest any amount which would exceed the highest lawful rate, the amount of
such interest that is excessive shall be applied to the reduction of the
principal balance of the Indebtedness evidenced hereby and not to the payment of
interest. This provision shall control every other provision of this Agreement
and all provisions of every other Loan Document.

     2.13 Alternate Rate of Interest. If prior to the commencement of any
Interest Period for a LIBOR Borrowing:

          (a) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be
conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not
exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable,
for such Interest Period; or

          (b) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that
the Adjusted LIBO Rate or the LIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period
will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or
maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the
affected Lenders by telephone or telecopy as promptly as practicable thereafter
and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and such Lenders that
the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) any Interest
Election Request that requests the conversion of any such Borrowing to, or
continuation of any such Borrowing as, a LIBOR Borrowing shall be ineffective
and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a LIBOR Borrowing, such Borrowing
shall be made as a Base Rate Borrowing.

     2.14 Increased Costs.

          (a) If any Change in Law shall:

              (i)  impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special
     deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the
     account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve
     requirement reflected in the Adjusted LIBO Rate) or the Issuing Lender; or

              (ii) impose on any Lender or the Issuing Lender or the London
     interbank market any other condition affecting this Agreement or LIBOR
     Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such
Lender of making or maintaining any LIBOR Loan (or of maintaining its obligation
to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or the Issuing
Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to
reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or the
Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts

                                       59

<PAGE>

as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for
such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

          (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Lender reasonably determines that any
Change in Law regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of
reducing the rate of return on such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's capital or
on the capital of such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's holding company, if any,
as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by, or participations in
Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued the
Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or the Issuing Lender or
such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's holding company could have achieved but
for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender's or the Issuing
Lender's policies and the policies of such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's
holding company with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the
Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such
additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing
Lender, or such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's holding company, for any such
reduction suffered.

          (c) A certificate of a Lender or the Issuing Lender setting forth the
amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or the Issuing Lender or
its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of
this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive so
long as it reflects a reasonable basis for the calculation of the amounts set
forth therein and does not contain any manifest error. The Borrower shall pay
such Lender or the Issuing Lender the amount shown as due on any such
certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

          (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Lender
to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a
waiver of such Lender's or the Issuing Lender's right to demand such
compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a
Lender or the Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased
costs or reductions incurred more than six months prior to the date that such
Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the
Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such
Lender's or the Issuing Lender's intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs
or reductions is (i) retroactive and (ii) occurred within such six-month period,
then the six-month period referred to above may be extended to include the
period of retroactive effect thereof, but in no event any period prior to the
Closing Date.

     2.15 Break Funding Payments.

          (a) In the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any LIBOR Loan
other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including
as a result of an Event of Default), (ii) the conversion of any LIBOR Loan other
than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the
failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Loan on the date
specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such
notice is permitted to be revocable and is revoked in accordance herewith) or
(iv) the assignment of any LIBOR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest
Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to
Section 2.8, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall compensate each Lender
for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event; provided that if

                                       60

<PAGE>

the occurrence of any event described in clause (iii) above shall occur solely
as a result of any Lender's failure to make available such Lender's share of any
LIBOR Borrowing, such Lender shall not be entitled to compensation under this
Section 2.15(a) with respect to such event. Nothing in this Section 2.15 shall
be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments
to the extent required by this Agreement or to prejudice any rights that the
Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender
hereunder.

          (b) In the case of a LIBOR Loan, the loss to any Lender attributable
to any such event shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender
to be equal to the excess, if any, of

              (i)  the amount of interest that such Lender would pay for a
     deposit equal to the principal amount of such Loan for the period from the
     date of such payment, conversion, failure or assignment to the last day of
     the then current Interest Period for such Loan (or, in the case of a
     failure to borrow, convert or continue, the duration of the Interest Period
     that would have resulted from such borrowing, conversion or continuation)
     if the interest rate payable on such deposit were equal to the Adjusted
     LIBO Rate for such Interest Period (or if such Lender does not accept
     deposits, then the Adjusted LIBO Rate for such Interest Period),

over

              (ii) the amount of interest that such Lender would earn on such
     principal amount for such period if such Lender were to invest such
     principal amount for such period at the interest rate that would be bid by
     such Lender (or an Affiliate of such Lender) for U.S. dollar deposits from
     other banks in the LIBOR market at the commencement of such period.

          (c) A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts
that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be
delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The
Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate
within 10 days after receipt thereof.

     2.16     Taxes.

          (a) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the
Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any
Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if the Borrower shall be
required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes from such payments, then
(i) the sum payable shall be increased as necessary so that after making all
required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable
under this Section 2.16) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing
Lender (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have
received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such
deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

          (b) In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the
relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

                                       61

<PAGE>

          (c) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender
and the Issuing Lender, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the
full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes
or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under
this Section 2.16) paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or the Issuing
Lender, as the case may be (and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses
arising therefrom or with respect thereto during the period prior to the
Borrower making the payment demanded under this paragraph (c)), whether or not
such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or
asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount
of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or the
Issuing Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of
a Lender or the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. If
the Administrative Agent, a Lender or the Issuing Lender (as the case may be)
shall become aware that it is entitled to claim a refund from a Governmental
Authority in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has
been indemnified by the Borrower, or with respect to which the Borrower has paid
increased amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, such Lender shall notify the
Borrower of the availability of such refund claim and shall exercise reasonable
efforts (at no cost to such Lender) to make the appropriate claim to such
Governmental Authority for such a refund. In the event any such Indemnified
Taxes or Other Taxes paid by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, a Lender
or the Issuing Lender are refunded to such Administrative Agent, Lender or
Issuing Lender, the Lender receiving such refund shall forthwith pay over such
amount to the Administrative Agent and each such refunded amount shall be (i)
applied to prepay interest payable on the Revolving Credit Loans, or to pay any
other obligations of the Credit Parties then due hereunder, or (ii) in the event
all obligations hereunder and under all of the Loan Documents have been
indefeasibly paid in full, refunded to the Borrower.

          (d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or
Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Borrower shall
deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of any
receipt issued by such Governmental Authority to the Borrower evidencing such
payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such
payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

          (e) Any Foreign Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or
reduction of withholding tax under the law of a jurisdiction in which the
Borrower is located, or any treaty to which such jurisdiction is a party, with
respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a
copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable
law or reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and
executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments
to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate.

     2.17 Payments Generally: Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-Offs.

          (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it
hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC
Disbursements, or under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16, or otherwise) prior to 1:00
p.m., Boston, Massachusetts time, on the date when due, in immediately available
funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on
any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be

                                       62

<PAGE>

deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of
calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the
Administrative Agent at such of its offices in Boston, Massachusetts as shall be
notified to the relevant parties from time to time, except payments to be made
directly to the Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein and except that
payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 and 10.3 shall be made directly
to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any
such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the
appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof, and the Borrower shall
have no liability in the event timely or correct distribution of such payments
is not so made. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a
Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding
Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest
thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments
hereunder shall be made in U.S. dollars.

          (b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to
the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC
Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder under any circumstances,
including during, or as a result of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or
the Lenders of remedies under the Collateral Documents and applicable law, such
funds shall be applied (i) first, to pay interest and fees then due hereunder,
ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of
interest and fees then due to such parties, (ii) second, to pay principal and
unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties
entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC
Disbursements then due to such parties and (iii) third, to obligations with
respect to Hedging Agreements entered into by a Lender; in each case, regardless
of whether such funds are the proceeds of Collateral that is security for less
than all of the Loans.

          (c) If any Revolving Credit Lender shall obtain any payment (whether
voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of set-off or otherwise) on account
of the Revolving Credit Loans made by it (other than pursuant to Sections 2.4,
2.14 or 2.16), then, if there is any Reimbursement Obligation outstanding in
respect of which the Issuing Lender has not received payment in full from such
Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to Section 2.4(e) (the amount of such
Reimbursement Obligation being such Revolving Credit Lender's "LC Deficiency
Amount"), such Revolving Credit Lender shall purchase a participation in such
Reimbursement Obligation in an amount equal to such Lender's LC Deficiency
Amount. If, after giving effect to the foregoing, any Lender shall, by
exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in
respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans (or participations
in LC Disbursements) (other than pursuant to Sections 2.4, 2.14 or 2.16),
resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the
aggregate principal amount of its Loans (and participations in LC Disbursements)
and accrued interest thereon than the proportion of such amounts received by any
other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase
(for cash at face value) participations in the Loans (and LC Disbursements) of
the other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of such payments
shall be shared by all the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate
amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans (and
participations in LC Disbursements); provided that (i) if any such
participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise
thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase
price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the
provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to

                                       63

<PAGE>

apply to any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of
or sale of a participation in any of its Loans (or participations in LC
Disbursements) to any assignee or participant, other than to any Credit Party or
any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this
paragraph shall apply). The Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to
the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender
acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise
against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Borrower
in the amount of such participation.

          (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative
Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lender entitled thereto (the
"Applicable Recipient") hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment,
the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on
such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption,
distribute to the Applicable Recipient the amount due. In such event, if the
Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each Applicable Recipient
severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the
amount so distributed to such Applicable Recipient with interest thereon, for
each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but
excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds
Effective Rate.

          (e) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made
by it pursuant to Section 2.4(d), 2.4(e), 2.5(b), or 2.17(d), then the
Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary
provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative
Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender's obligations under
such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

                                   ARTICLE 3

                             Guarantee by Guarantors

     3.1 The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees
to each Lender, the Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent and their
respective successors and assigns the prompt payment and performance in full
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the
principal of and interest on the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower, all
LC Disbursements and all other amounts from time to time owing to the Lenders,
the Issuing Lender or the Administrative Agent by the Borrower hereunder or
under any other Loan Document, and all other obligations of the Borrower to any
Lender hereunder or under any Hedging Agreement, in each case strictly in
accordance with the terms thereof (such obligations being herein collectively
called the "Guaranteed Obligations"). Each Guarantor hereby further agrees that
if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full when due (whether at stated maturity,
by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, each Guarantor
will promptly pay the same, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in
the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full when due (whether at
extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of
such extension or renewal.

                                       64

<PAGE>

     3.2 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of each Guarantor under
Section 3.1 are absolute and unconditional irrespective of the value,
genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of this Agreement, the other
Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or
therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or
security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, and, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever
that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a
surety or guarantor, it being the intent of this Section 3.2 that the
obligations of the Guarantors hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional
under any and all circumstances. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following
shall not alter or impair the liability of the Guarantors hereunder which shall
remain absolute and unconditional as described above:

             (i)   at any time or from time to time, without notice to such
     Guarantors, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the
     Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance
     shall be waived;

             (ii)  any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions hereof or
     of the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred
     to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

             (iii) the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be
     accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be modified,
     supplemented or amended in any respect, or any right hereunder or under the
     other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to
     herein or therein shall be waived or any other guarantee of any of the
     Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or
     exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with; or

             (iv)  any lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of, the
     Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender or Lenders as
     security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected
     or any Collateral is released or otherwise compromised or liquidated for
     less than fair value.

The Guarantors hereby expressly waive diligence, presentment, demand of payment,
protest and all notices whatsoever (except as expressly required hereby) and any
requirement that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any Lender
exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to
herein or therein, or against any other Person under any other guarantee of, or
security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

     3.3 Reinstatement. The obligations of each Guarantor under this Article 3
shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any
payment by or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations
is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the
Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or
reorganization or otherwise, and each of the Guarantors agrees that it will
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and each Lender on demand
for all reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of
counsel) incurred by

                                       65

<PAGE>

the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender in connection with
such rescission or restoration, including any such costs and expenses incurred
in defending against any claim alleging that such payment constituted a
preference, fraudulent transfer or similar payment under any bankruptcy,
insolvency or similar law.

     3.4 Subrogation. Until such time as the Guaranteed Obligations shall have
been indefeasibly paid in full, each Guarantor hereby waives all rights of
subrogation or contribution, whether arising by contract or operation of law
(including any such right arising under the Federal Bankruptcy Code of 1978, as
amended) or otherwise by reason of any payment by it pursuant to the provisions
of this Article 3 and further agrees with the Borrower for the benefit of each
of its creditors (including each Lender, the Issuing Lender and the
Administrative Agent) that any such payment by it shall constitute a
contribution of capital by such Guarantor to the Borrower.

     3.5 Remedies. Each Guarantor agrees that, as between such Guarantor and the
Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder may be declared to be
forthwith due and payable as provided in Section 8.1 or Section 2.4(i), as
applicable (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in
the circumstances provided in Section 8.1 or Section 2.4(i), as applicable) for
purposes of Section 3.1 notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other
prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming
automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower and that, in the event of
such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically
due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the
Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by such Guarantor for purposes
of Section 3.1.

     3.6 Continuing Guarantee. The guarantee in this Article 3 is a continuing
irrevocable guarantee of payment and performance, and shall apply to all
Guaranteed Obligations prior to the indefeasible payment in full of Borrower's
obligations hereunder.

     3.7 Rights of Contribution. The Guarantors hereby agree, as between
themselves, that if any Guarantor shall become an Excess Funding Guarantor (as
defined below) by reason of the payment by such Guarantor of any Guaranteed
Obligations, each other Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding
Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence), pay to such Excess Funding
Guarantor an amount equal to such Guarantor's Pro Rata Share (as defined below
and determined, for this purpose, without reference to the properties, debts and
liabilities of such Excess Funding Guarantor) of the Excess Payment (as defined
below) in respect of such Guaranteed Obligations. The payment obligation of a
Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 3.7 shall be
subordinate and subject in right of payment to the prior payment in full of the
obligations of such Guarantor under the other provisions of this Article 3 and
such Excess Funding Guarantor shall not exercise any right or remedy with
respect to such excess until payment and satisfaction in full of all of such
obligations.

     For purposes of this Section 3.7, (i) "Excess Funding Guarantor" means, in
respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, a Guarantor that has paid an amount in
excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) "Excess
Payment" means, in respect of any Guaranteed Obligations, the amount paid by an
Excess Funding Guarantor in excess of its Pro Rata Share of such Guaranteed
Obligations and (iii) "Pro Rata Share" means, for any Guarantor, the ratio

                                       66

<PAGE>

(expressed as a percentage) of (x) the amount by which the aggregate present
fair saleable value of all properties of such Guarantor (excluding any shares of
stock of, or ownership interest in, any other Guarantor) exceeds the amount of
all the debts and liabilities of such Guarantor (including contingent,
subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding the
obligations of such Guarantor hereunder and any obligations of any other
Guarantor that have been Guaranteed by such Guarantor) to (y) the amount by
which the aggregate fair saleable value of all properties of all of the Credit
Parties exceeds the amount of all the debts and liabilities (including
contingent, subordinated, unmatured and unliquidated liabilities, but excluding
the obligations of the Borrower and the Guarantors hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents) of all of the Credit Parties, determined (A) with respect to any
Guarantor that is a party hereto at the Effective Time, as of the Effective
Time, and (B) with respect to any other Guarantor, as of the date such Guarantor
becomes a Guarantor hereunder.

     3.8 General Limitation on Guarantee Obligations. In any action or
proceeding involving any state or non-U.S. corporate law, or any state or
Federal or non-U.S. bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law
affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor
under Section 3.1 would otherwise, taking into account the provisions of Section
3.7, be held or determined to be void, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated
to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability
under Section 3.1, then, notwithstanding any other provision hereof to the
contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by such
Guarantor, any Lender, Agent or other Person, be automatically limited and
reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated
to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

     3.9 Waivers. As used in this paragraph, any reference to "the principal"
includes the Borrower, and any reference to "the creditor" includes the
Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders. In accordance with Section 2856 of
the California Civil Code (a) each Guarantor waives any and all rights and
defenses available to such Guarantor by reason of Sections 2787 to 2855,
inclusive, 2899 and 3433 of the California Civil Code, including without
limitation any and all rights or defenses any Guarantor may have by reason of
protection afforded to the principal with respect to any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, or to any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations with
respect to any of such guarantor's obligations under its guaranty, in either
case pursuant to the antideficiency or other laws of the State of California
limiting or discharging the principal's indebtedness or such guarantor's
obligations, including without limitation Section 580a, 580b, 580d, or 726 of
the California Code of Civil Procedure; and (b) each Guarantor waives all rights
and defenses arising out of an election of remedies by the creditor, even though
that election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to
security for a Guaranteed Obligation, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of
subrogation and reimbursement against the principal by the operation of Section
580d of the Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise; and even though that election
of remedies by the creditor, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to
security for an obligation of any other guarantor of any of the Guaranteed
Obligations, has destroyed Guarantor's rights of contribution against such other
guarantor. No other provision of this Guaranty shall be construed as limiting
the generality of any of the covenants and waivers set forth in this paragraph.
As provided below, this Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed
and enforced in accordance with, the internal laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts, without regard to conflicts of laws principles. This paragraph is
included solely out of an abundance of caution, and shall not be construed to
mean

                                       67

<PAGE>

that any of the above-referenced provisions of California law are in any way
applicable to the provisions of this Article 3 or to any of the Guaranteed
Obligations.

                                   ARTICLE 4

                         Representations and Warranties

          Each of the Credit Parties and Empire Burbank represents and warrants

expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

          4.2 Authorization; Enforceability. The Transactions are within the
organizational power and authority of each Credit Party and Empire Burbank to
the extent such Credit Party or Empire Burbank, as applicable, is a party to the
Basic Documents and have been duly authorized by all necessary organizational

extent such Credit Party or Empire Burbank, as applicable, is a party thereto.
This Agreement, the Collateral Documents and all other Basic Documents have been

that is a party thereto and constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of
such Credit Party or Empire Burbank, as applicable, enforceable in accordance
with their respective terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or other laws affecting creditors' rights generally
and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in
a proceeding in equity or at law.

          4.3 Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. As of the Closing Date and
each Acquisition Date except as set forth on Schedule 4.3, the Transactions (a)
do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any
other action by, any Governmental Authority, (b) will not violate any applicable
law, policy or regulation or the organizational documents of any Credit Party or
Empire Burbank that is a party to the Basic Documents or any order of any
Governmental Authority where any violation would have a Material Adverse Effect,
(c) will not violate or result in a default under any material indenture,
agreement or other instrument binding upon any Credit Party or Empire Burbank,

made by any Credit Party or Empire Burbank, where any such violation or default
or right to payment would have a Material Adverse Effect, and (d) except for the
Liens created by the Collateral Documents, will not result in the creation or
imposition of any material Lien on any asset of any Credit Party or Empire
Burbank. Except as set forth therein, all consents, approvals, registrations,
filings and other actions required as set

                                       68

<PAGE>

forth in such Schedule 4.3 have been obtained on or before the Closing Date or,
with respect to any consents, approvals, registrations, filings and other
actions related to the consummation of the El Dorado Acquisitions or the
Guajillo Acquisitions, will be obtained on or before their respective
Acquisition Dates.

     4.4  Financial Condition; No Material Adverse Change.

          (a) The Borrower has heretofore delivered to the Lenders the following
financial statements:

              (i)   the audited consolidated balance sheet, statements of
     earnings, statements of stockholders' equity, statements of cash flows and
     notes to consolidated financial statements of Holdings I and the applicable
     Credit Parties as of and for fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, 2000 and
     2001, respectively, accompanied by an opinion of Ernst & Young, LLP
     independent public accountants;

              (ii)  the unaudited consolidated balance sheet and income
     statement to consolidated financial statements of Holdings I and the
     applicable Credit Parties as of and for the three-month period ended March
     31, 2002, certified by the executive vice president of Holdings I that such
     financial statements fairly present in all material respects (subject, in
     the case of such balance sheet as at March 31, 2002 and such statements of
     income and cash flows for the three months then ended, to normal year-end
     audit adjustments) the consolidated financial condition of Holdings I and
     the applicable Credit Parties as at such dates and the consolidated results
     of the operations of Holdings I and the applicable Credit Parties for the
     periods ended on such dates and that all such financial statements,
     including the related schedules thereto have been prepared in accordance
     with GAAP applied consistently throughout the periods involved; and

              (iii) projected statements of cash flow for the Credit Parties for
     fiscal years 2002 through 2009.

Such financial statements (except for any portion thereof which represents a
projection or assumption as to future events of the date of such statement,
including any financial projections and pro formas) in the Borrower's opinion
present fairly, in all material respects, the respective actual consolidated
financial position and results of operations and cash flows of the respective
entities as of such respective dates and for such periods in accordance with
GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and the absence of footnotes in the
case of such unaudited statements. Such pro forma statements were prepared by
the Credit Parties in good faith and incorporate adjustments that were
reasonable when made. Such projections were prepared by the Credit Parties in
good faith and were based on assumptions that the Credit Parties believed were
reasonable when made.

          (b) Since March 31, 2002, there has been no change in the business,
assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Credit Parties
taken as a whole from that set forth in the March 31, 2002 unaudited
consolidated financial statements referred to in clause (ii) of paragraph (a)
above that has a Material Adverse Effect.

                                       69

<PAGE>

          (c) None of the Credit Parties has on the date hereof any contingent
liabilities, liabilities for taxes, unusual forward or long-term commitments or
unrealized or anticipated losses from any unfavorable commitments in each case
that are material in relation to the Credit Parties taken as a whole, except as
referred to or reflected or provided for in the balance sheets as at the end of
their respective fiscal years ended in 2000 and 2001 and as at the end of the
fiscal quarter ended on March 31, 2002, referred to above, as provided for in
Schedule 4.4, or as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, or as
referred to or reflected or provided for in the financial statements described
in this Section 4.4.

     4.5  Properties.

          (a) Each of the Credit Parties has good and marketable title to, or
valid, subsisting and enforceable leasehold interests in, all its Property
material to its business, except where the failure to have such good and
marketable title or leasehold or license interests could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

          (b) As of the Closing Date and each Acquisition Date except as
disclosed on Schedule 4.5(b), each of the Credit Parties owns, or is licensed to
use, all trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, patents and other
intellectual property material to its business (including the call letters with
respect to each Broadcast Station) (excluding rights related to software
programs and copyrights with respect to the content of news and other
programming broadcast or disseminated as part of the Permitted Lines of
Business) as currently conducted except for those failure to own or license
which would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect (the
"Proprietary Rights"), and, to the Borrower's knowledge, the use thereof by the
Credit Parties does not infringe upon the rights of any other Person, except for
any such infringements that, individually or in the aggregate, would not
reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. As of the Closing
Date and each Acquisition Date, all such trademark applications and
registrations, trademarks, registered copyrights, patents and patent
applications, together with the domain names, web sites, and web site
registrations which are owned by or licensed to any Credit Party are listed on

<PAGE>

accordance with their terms, except where the failure to be so valid,
subsisting, in full force and effect or binding would not reasonably be expected

Effect. As of the Closing Date and each Acquisition Date, the licenses and other

all fees and other amounts required to be paid by them under all applicable FCC
Regulations, in each case, except where the failure to do so would not result in
termination, suspension or material diminution in scope of a Material FCC
License. To the Borrower's knowledge, no rights of any Credit Party under any
Material FCC License conflict with the valid rights of any other Person in any
material respect. To the Borrower's knowledge, no event has occurred that would
be reasonably likely to result in the revocation, termination or material
adverse modification of any Material FCC License or affect materially adversely
any rights of the Credit Parties thereunder, and none of the Credit Parties has
any reason to believe that any Material FCC License will not be renewed in the
ordinary course of business other than FCC Licenses for analog television
stations which may expire upon completion of conversion to digital television or
loss of any license solely as a result from a Relocation.

reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material
Adverse Effect, the Credit Parties have at all times since March 31, 2002

Subsidiary to any Credit Party. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
if part or all of a Permitted Holdings Tax Distribution or a Permitted

     Schedule 7.7, and in other similar transactions or transactions entered in
     the ordinary course of business provided that the terms of such similar
     transactions or such ordinary course transactions are not less favorable to

     length transaction between non-affiliated parties; provided, further that
     with respect to any such transaction involving the payment by a Credit
     Party of consideration in excess of $1,000,000, the Credit Parties shall

determined adversely to any Credit Party, and the amount thereof is, singly or

<PAGE>

cessation; provided that in the event Lenard Liberman is unable to serve as and
perform the duties as an officer of any Credit Party due to physical or mental

          (o) any of the following shall occur: (i) the Liens created by the

          (s) other than as a result of a sale or other Disposition permitted

which causes a Material Adverse Effect, any Credit Party shall lose, fail to
keep in force, suffer the termination, suspension or revocation of, or
terminate, forfeit or suffer an adverse amendment to, any Material FCC
License(s) held by any Credit Party which contribute(s) in the aggregate in
excess of 5% of the EBITDA of the Credit Parties for the immediately preceding
fiscal year as stated in the Compliance Certificate required to be delivered for
such fiscal year pursuant to Section 6.1(c) or, if such Compliance Certificate
is not available at the time of such loss, termination, suspension or
revocation, as demonstrated through financial statements and reports acceptable
to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; or

          (t) any Credit Party shall permit its on-the-air broadcast operations

                                      116

<PAGE>

(and only so long as), substantially all damages, liabilities and other effects
of such interruption of service (including any adverse effect on the Credit
Parties' ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement) are fully
covered by business interruption insurance;

then, and in every such event (other than an event described in clause (g) or

such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required
Lenders shall, by notice to the Credit Parties, take either or both of the
following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the
Commitments, and thereupon the Commitments shall terminate immediately, (ii)
declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part,
in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter
be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so
declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all
fees and other obligations of the Credit Parties accrued hereunder, shall become
due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest or other
notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Credit Parties, and
(iii) the Administrative Agent may exercise all of the rights hereunder or under
the Collateral Documents or applicable law, including the rights as secured
party and mortgagee under the Collateral Documents; and in case of any event
described in clause (g) or (h) of this Section 8.1, the Commitments shall
automatically terminate and the principal of the Loans then outstanding,
together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the
Credit Parties accrued hereunder, shall automatically become due and payable,
without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which
are hereby waived by the Credit Parties, and the Administrative Agent shall be
permitted to exercise such rights hereunder or under the Collateral Documents or
applicable law, including the rights as secured party and mortgagee under the
Collateral Documents to the extent permitted by applicable law.

                                    ARTICLE 9

                            The Administrative Agent

     9.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each of the Lenders and the Issuing
Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent as its agent and
authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to
exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such actions and
powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

     9.2 Administrative Agent's Rights as Lender. The Lender or other financial
institution serving as the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender hereunder
shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender hereunder as
any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, and such institution and its
Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any
kind of business with any Credit Party or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate of
any thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender
hereunder.

     9.3 Duties As Expressly Stated. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the
Issuing Lender shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set
forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (a) neither the

                                      1117

<PAGE>

Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender shall be subject to any fiduciary or
other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is
continuing, (b) neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender shall
have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent or Issuing
Lender is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other
number or percentage of the Lenders as is required hereunder with respect to
such action), and (c) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan
Documents, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender shall have
any duty to disclose, or shall be liable for the failure to disclose, any
information relating to any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries
that is communicated to or obtained by the financial institution serving as the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender or any of its Affiliates or Approved
Funds in any capacity. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender
shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at
the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the
Lenders as is required hereunder with respect to such action) or all of the
Lenders if expressly required, or in the absence of its own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender
shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice
thereof is given to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender by the
Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for
or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or
representation made in, or in connection with, this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document
delivered hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents or in connection
herewith of therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the
covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or in any
other Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or
genuineness of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any other agreement,
instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in
Article 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly
required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender.
Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender shall, except to the
extent the Administrative Agent expressly instructed by the Required Lenders
with respect to collateral security under the Collateral Documents, be required
to initiate or conduct any litigation or collection proceedings hereunder or
under any other Loan Document; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent
shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent
to personal liability or which is contrary to the Loan Documents or applicable
law.

     9.4 Reliance By Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Lender shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability
for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement,
instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have
been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Lender also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by
telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not
incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent and the
Issuing Lender may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the
Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall
not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the
advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts. The Administrative Agent and
the Issuing Lender shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any
action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first
receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if

                                      118

<PAGE>

so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall
first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all
liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or
continuing to take any such action (it being understood that this provision
shall not release the Administrative Agent from performing any action with
respect to the Borrower expressly required to be performed by it pursuant to the
terms hereof) under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent and the Issuing
Lender shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from
acting, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents in accordance with a
request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all
Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant
thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the
Loans.

     9.5 Action Through Sub-Agents. The Administrative Agent and the Issuing
Lender may perform any and all of its duties, and exercise its rights and
powers, by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative
Agent or the Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender and
any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights
and powers through its Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the
preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related
Parties of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender and any such
sub-agent, and shall apply to its activities in connection with the syndication
of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities of the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender.

     9.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent and Appointment of Successor
Administrative Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor
Administrative Agent, as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent
may resign at any time upon 30 days' notice to the Lenders, the Issuing Lender
and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the
right, with the prior written consent of the Borrower (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.
If no successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such
appointment within 30 days after such retiring Administrative Agent gives notice
of its resignation, then such retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of
the Lenders and the Issuing Lender, appoint a successor Administrative Agent,
which shall be a bank with an office in Boston, Massachusetts, Los Angeles,
California or New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the
acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, by a successor,
such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers,
privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring
Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower
to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its
predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor.
After an Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Article and Section 10.3 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such
retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related
Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them
while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

     9.7 Lenders' Independent Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has,
independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this
Agreement. Each Lender also

                                      119

<PAGE>

acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate,
continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based
upon this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, any related agreement or any
document furnished hereunder or thereunder. Except as explicitly provided
herein, neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender has any duty or
responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender
with any credit or other information with respect to such operations, business,
property, condition or creditworthiness, whether such information comes into its
possession on or before the first Event of Default or at any time thereafter.
Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Issuing Lender shall be deemed a
trustee or other fiduciary on behalf of any party.

     9.8  Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to indemnify and hold harmless
each of the Agents, the Sole Lead Arranger and the Issuing Lender (to the extent
not reimbursed under Section 10.3, but without limiting the obligations of the
Borrower under Section 10.3), ratably in accordance with the aggregate principal
amount of the respective Commitments of and/or Loans and LC Exposure held by the
Lenders (or, if all of the Commitments shall have been terminated or expired,
ratably in accordance with the aggregate outstanding amount of the Loans and LC
Exposure held by the Lenders), for any and all liabilities (including pursuant
to any Environmental Law), obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions,
judgments, deficiencies, suits, costs, expenses (including reasonable attorney's
fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on,
incurred by or asserted against any of the Agents, the Sole Lead Arranger or the
Issuing Lender (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any
investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of any Loan Document
or any other documents contemplated by or referred to therein for any action
taken or omitted to be taken by any Agent, the Sole Lead Arranger or the Issuing
Lender under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents or other such documents
or the transactions contemplated thereby (including the costs and expenses that
the Borrower is obligated to pay under Section 10.3, but excluding, unless a
Default has occurred and is continuing, normal administrative costs and expenses
incident to the performance of its agency duties hereunder) or the enforcement
of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents; provided,
however, that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent
they are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and
nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the party to be indemnified. The agreements set forth in this
Section 9.8 shall survive the payment of all Loans and other obligations
hereunder and shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any other
indemnification agreements contained in any other Loan Document.

     9.9  Consents Under Other Loan Documents. Except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent may, with
the prior consent of the Required Lenders (but not otherwise), consent to any
modification, supplement or waiver under any of the other Loan Documents.

     9.10 The Agents. None of the Co-Syndication Agents nor the Co-Documentation
Agents shall have any duties or obligations under this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, express or implied. None of the Co-Syndication Agents nor the
Co-Documentation Agents shall incur any personal liability by reason of being
named the Co-Syndication Agents or Co-Documentation Agents hereunder.

other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

     10.2 Waivers; Amendments.

          (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Lender or any Lender 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 the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Lender and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of
any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Credit Party or
Subsidiary therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be
permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section 10.2, and then such waiver or consent
shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which
given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or
issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any
Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the
Issuing Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

          (b) Neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any
provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except to the
extent this Agreement or any other Loan Document provides for revisions to the
schedules hereto or thereto with the

                                      121

<PAGE>

approval of the Administrative Agent or pursuant to an agreement or agreements
in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the written consent of the Required
Lenders and the Administrative Agent; provided that no such agreement shall:

               (i)   increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written
     consent of such Lender and the Administrative Agent, except that the
     consent of the Administrative Agent shall not be required with respect to
     any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase;

               (ii)  reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement
     or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable
     hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

               (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal
     amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement other than mandatory prepayments of
     the Loans required under Section 2.10(b), or any interest thereon, or any
     fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such
     payment, change the maturity date of any Loan, or postpone the scheduled
     date of expiration of any Commitment, or postpone the ultimate expiration
     date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Credit Maturity Date,
     without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby;

               (iv)  change Section 2.10(c) in a manner that would alter the
     application of prepayments thereunder, or change Section 2.17(b) or (c) in
     a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required
     thereby, without in each case the written consent of each Lender;

               (v)   change any of the provisions of this Section 10.2 or the
     definition of "Required Lenders" or any other provision hereof specifying
     the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any
     rights hereunder or under any other Loan Document or make any determination
     or grant any consent hereunder or thereunder, without the written consent
     of each Lender;

               (vi)  release any of the Guarantors from its obligations in
     respect of its Guarantee under Article 3 or release all or substantially
     all of the Collateral (or terminate any Lien with respect thereto), except
     as expressly permitted in the Loan Documents, without the written consent
     of each Lender; or

               (vii) waive any of the conditions precedent specified in Section
     5.1 without the consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent;

provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect
the rights or duties of any Agent or the Issuing Lender hereunder without the
prior written consent of such Agent or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be.

          (c)  None of the Collateral Documents nor any provision thereof may be
waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in
writing entered

                                      122

the written consent of the Required Lenders.

     10.3 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

          (a) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to pay, or
reimburse the Administrative Agent, the Sole Lead Arranger or the Lenders, as
applicable, for paying, (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by
the Administrative Agent, the Sole Lead Arranger and their Affiliates, including
the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of Special Counsel, any FCC
counsel or local counsel, in connection with the syndication of the credit
facilities provided for herein, the preparation of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions
hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or
thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred by the Issuing Lender in connection with the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment
thereunder, (iii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Sole Lead Arranger or any Lender, including the
reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative
Agent, the Issuing Lender, the Sole Lead Arranger or any Lender, in connection
with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including its rights under this Section
10.3, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued
hereunder, including in connection with any workout, restructuring or
negotiations in respect thereof, and (iv) all Other Taxes levied by any
Governmental Authority in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents or any other document referred to herein or therein and all costs,
expenses, taxes, assessments and other charges incurred in connection with any
filing, registration, recording or perfection of any security interest
contemplated by any Collateral Document or any other document referred to
therein.

          (b) The Credit Parties jointly and severally agree to indemnify the
Agents, the Sole Lead Arranger, the Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each
Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an
"Indemnitee") against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all
losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including the fees,
charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnitee and settlement
costs, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents or any agreement or instrument contemplated
hereby, the performance or failure to perform by the parties hereto and thereto
of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of
the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii)
any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any
refusal by the Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of
Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly
comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged
presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or
operated by any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries, or any Environmental
Liability related in any way to any Credit Party or any of their Subsidiaries,
or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding
relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other
theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided
that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be

                                      123

<PAGE>

available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
related expenses (are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final
and nonappealable judgment to have) resulted from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

          (c) To the extent that the Credit Parties fail to pay any amount
required to be paid by them to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or
(b) of this Section 10.3, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the
Administrative Agent such Lender's Applicable Percentage (determined as of the
time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of
such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss,
claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by
or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such. To the
extent that the Credit Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by
them to the Sole Lead Arranger under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.3,
each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Sole Lead Arranger such Lender's
Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable
unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount;
provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage,
liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted
against the Sole Lead Arranger in its capacity as such. To the extent that the
Credit Parties fail to pay any amount required to be paid by them to the Issuing
Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.3, each Revolving Credit
Lender severally agrees to pay to the Issuing Lender such Lender's Applicable
Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense
or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the
unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related
expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Issuing
Lender in its capacity as such.

          (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of the Credit
Parties shall assert, and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against any
Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or
punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in
connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents or
any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions,
any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

          (e) All amounts due under this Section 10.3 shall be payable promptly
after written demand therefor.

     10.4 Successors and Assigns.

          (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure
to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns
permitted hereby, except that no Credit Party may assign or otherwise transfer
any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of
each Lender and the Administrative Agent (and any attempted assignment or
transfer by any Credit Party without such consent shall be null and void).
Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer
upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the
Related Parties of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders)
any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this
Agreement.

          (b) Any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of
its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of
its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) and may assign Revolving
Credit Commitment and Revolving Credit Loans; provided that:

              (i)   except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an
     Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund of a Lender, the Borrower and the
     Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of all or a portion
     of a Revolving Credit Commitment or any Lender's obligations in respect of
     its LC Exposure, the Issuing Lender) each must give its prior written
     consent to such assignment (which consent shall not be unreasonably
     withheld, delayed or conditioned),

              (ii)  except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an
     Affiliate of a Lender or Approved Fund of a Lender or an assignment of the
     entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender's Loans or Commitment, the
     amount of the Loans or Commitment of the assigning Lender subject to each
     such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance
     with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent)
     shall not be less than the lesser of $5,000,000 or the entire Commitment of
     such assigning Lender, unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent
     otherwise consent;

              (iii) the parties to each assignment (other than an assignment to
     a Lender or its Affiliate or Approved Fund) shall execute and deliver to
     the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a
     processing and recordation fee of $3,000, and

              (iv)  the assignee shall be an Eligible Assignee and shall deliver
     to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire;

provided further that any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this
paragraph shall not be required (i) if an Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing, (ii) in the event of an assignment to an existing Lender, or (iii)
in the event of an assignment by General Electric Capital Corporation following
a determination by such Lender or its affiliate, the National Broadcasting
Company ("NBC"), that continued ownership of rights or obligations hereunder

                                      125

<PAGE>

would (A) violate FCC rules pertinent to attributable ownership or (B) cause NBC
to forgo investments or acquisition opportunities in any of the markets in which
the Borrower then operates, then, in each case, such Lender shall consult with
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent regarding proposed assignees and use
reasonable efforts to cause such assignment to an assignee reasonably acceptable
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions of this Section 10.4(b)(ii)
shall not apply until the date on which the primary syndication of the
Commitments has been completed.

          (c) Upon acceptance and recording pursuant to paragraph (e) of this
Section 10.4, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and
Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent
of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and
obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender
thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and
Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the
case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender's
rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a
party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14,
2.15, 2.16 and 10.3 with respect to matters described therein occurring or
accruing prior to the effective date of any such Assignment and Acceptance).
Notwithstanding anything therein to the contrary, no Approved Fund shall be
entitled to receive any greater amount pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 2.16
than the transferor Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the
assignment effected by such transferor Lender had no assignment occurred. Any
assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement
that does not comply with paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4 shall be treated
for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in
such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (f) of this Section.

          (d) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of
the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in Boston, Massachusetts a
copy of each Assignment and Acceptance and Lender Joinder Agreement delivered to
it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders,
and the Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans and LC Disbursements
owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the
"Register"). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive (absent manifest
error), and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the
Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to
the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement,
notwithstanding notice to the contrary (absent manifest error). The Register
shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lender and any
Lender or the Administrative Agent, at any reasonable time and from time to time
upon reasonable prior notice.

          (e) (i) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance
executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee's completed
Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender
hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of
this Section 10.4 and any written consent to such assignment required by
paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4, the Administrative Agent shall accept such
Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the
Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless
it has been recorded in

                                      126

<PAGE>

the Register as provided in this paragraph, and (ii) upon its receipt of a duly
completed Lender Joinder Agreement executed by a New Lender and Administrative
Agent in accordance with Section 2.1(b), and the New Lender's completed
Administrative Questionnaire, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Lender
Joinder Agreement and record the information contained therein in the Register.

          (f) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Borrower,
the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Lender, sell participations to one or
more banks or other entities (a "Participant") in all or a portion of such
Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion
of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender's
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with such Lender's rights and obligations under this
Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a
participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to
enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of
any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may
provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to
Section 10.2(b), or Section 10.2(c), that affects such Participant. Subject to
paragraph (g) of this Section 10.4, the Borrower agrees that each Participant
shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14. 2.15 and 2.16 to the same
extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.4.

          (g) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment
under Section 2.14 or 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled
to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless
the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower's
prior written consent. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a
Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless the Borrower
is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant
agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Section 2.16(e) as
though it were a Lender.

          (h) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in
all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of
such Lender, including any such pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank;
provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release
a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee
for such Lender as a party hereto.

          (i) Anything in this Section 10.4 to the contrary notwithstanding, no
Lender may assign or participate any interest in any Loan held by it hereunder
to any Credit Party or any of its Affiliates or Subsidiaries without the prior
consent of each Lender and the Administrative Agent.

          (j) A Lender may furnish any information concerning any Credit Party,
Holding Company or Subsidiary in the possession of such Lender from time to time
to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and participants)
subject, however, to and so long as the recipient agrees in writing to be bound
by, the provisions of Section 10.13. In

                                      127

<PAGE>

addition, the Administrative Agent may furnish any information concerning any
Credit Party or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates in the Administrative
Agent's possession to any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, subject,
however, to the provisions of Section 10.13. The Credit Parties shall assist any
Lender in effectuating any assignment or participation pursuant to this Section
10.4 (including during syndication) in whatever manner such Lender reasonably
deems necessary, including participation in meetings with prospective
transferees.

          (k) Each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof hereby agrees (i)
that it is an Eligible Assignee described in the definition thereof. Each Lender
that becomes a party hereto pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance shall be
deemed to agree that the agreements of such Lender contained in Section 3 of
such Assignment and Acceptance are incorporated herein by this reference.

     10.5 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties
made by the Credit Parties and Subsidiaries herein and in the other Loan
Documents, and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection
with or pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, shall be
considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall
survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit,
regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf
and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender or any
Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect
representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and
shall continue in full force and effect so long as the principal of or any
accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this
Agreement or the other Loan Documents is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of
Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or
terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.3 and Article 9
shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation
of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the
expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the
termination of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any provision hereof
or thereof.

     10.6 Counterparts; Integration; References to Agreement; Effectiveness.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto
on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all
of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement
and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the
Administrative Agent or its counsel and to certain other lenders constitute the
entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and
supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written,
relating to the subject matter hereof. Whenever there is a reference in any
Collateral Document or UCC Financing Statement to the "Credit Agreement" to
which the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Credit Parties are parties,
such reference shall be deemed to be made to this Agreement among the parties
hereto. Except as provided in Section 5.1, this Agreement shall become effective
when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the
Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken
together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto
and their respective successors and assigns. Delivery of an

                                      128

<PAGE>

executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by telecopy shall be
effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

     10.7 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be
ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability
without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining
provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular
jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

     10.8 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time,
to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all
deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time
held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the
credit or the account of the Borrower against any of and all the obligations of
the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement held by such Lender,
irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this
Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each
Lender under this Section 10.8 are in addition to any other rights and remedies
(including other rights of setoff) that such Lender may have.

     10.9 Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

          (a) This Agreement and all issues arising with respect hereto,
including the validity or enforceability of any agreement contained herein and
the issue of usury with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby, shall
be construed in accordance with and governed by the law, other than the conflict
of law rules, of The Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

          (b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits,
for itself and its property, to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts and of the United States District Court for
the District of Massachusetts, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any
action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of
the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims
in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such
Massachusetts court (or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court).
Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or
proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by
suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this
Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Lender or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding
relating to this Agreement against any Credit Party or Subsidiary or its
properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

          (c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives,
to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which
it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or
proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.9. Each
of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent

                                      129

<PAGE>

permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of
such action or proceeding in any such court.

          (d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of
process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.1. Nothing in this
Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process
in any other manner permitted by law.

     10.10 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS
AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT,
TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO
REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY
OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK
TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER
PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER
THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.10.

     10.11 Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used
herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and
shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in
interpreting, this Agreement.

     10.12 Release of Collateral and Guarantees. The Administrative Agent and
the Lenders agree that if all of the capital stock of or other equity interests
in, or any assets of, any Subsidiary that is owned by the Credit Parties is sold
to any Person as permitted by the terms of this Agreement and the Collateral
Documents, or if any Subsidiary is merged or consolidated with or into any other
Person as permitted by the terms of this Agreement and such Subsidiary is not
the continuing or surviving corporation, the Administrative Agent shall, upon
request of the Borrower (and upon the receipt by the Administrative Agent of
such evidence as the Administrative Agent or any Lender may reasonably request
to establish that such sale, designation, merger or consolidation is permitted
by the terms of this Agreement), terminate the Guarantee of such Subsidiary
under Article 3 and authorize the Administrative Agent to release the Lien
created by the Collateral Documents on any capital stock of or other equity
interests in such Subsidiary and on any assets of such Subsidiary.

     10.13 Confidentiality. Each Lender agrees to keep confidential information
obtained by it pursuant hereto and the other Loan Documents confidential in
accordance with such Lender's customary practices and agrees that it will only
use such information in connection with the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and not disclose any of such information other than (a) to such
Lender's employees, representatives, directors, attorneys, auditors, agents,
professional advisors, trustees or Affiliates who are advised of the
confidential nature of such information or to any direct or indirect contractual
counter party in swap agreements or such contractual counter party's
professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional
advisor to such contractual counter party agrees to be bound by the provisions
of this Section 10.13), (b) to the extent such information presently is or
hereafter becomes available

                                      130

<PAGE>

to such Lender on a non-confidential basis from any source of such information
that is in the public domain at the time of disclosure (so long as such
information does not become publicly available as a result of a breach of this
Section 10.13), (c) to the extent disclosure is required by law (including
applicable securities law), regulation, subpoena or judicial order or process
(provided that notice of such requirement or order shall be promptly furnished
to the Borrower unless such notice is legally prohibited) or requested or
required by bank, securities, insurance or investment company regulators or
auditors or any administrative body or commission (including the Securities
Valuation Office of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners) to
whose jurisdiction such Lender may be subject, (d) to any rating agency to the
extent required in connection with any rating to be assigned to such Lender, (e)
to assignees or participants or prospective assignees or participants who agree
to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.13, (f) to the extent required
in connection with any litigation between any Credit Party and any Lender with
respect to the Loans or this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or (g) with
the Borrower's prior written consent.

     10.14 Continued Effectiveness; No Novation. Notwithstanding anything
contained herein, the terms of this Agreement are not intended to and do not
serve to effect a novation of the obligations, liabilities or indebtedness of
the Credit Parties under the Existing Credit Agreement. Instead, it is the
express intention of the parties hereto to reaffirm, amend and restate the
obligations, liabilities and indebtedness created under or otherwise evidenced
by the Existing Credit Agreement that is evidenced by the notes provided for
therein and secured by the collateral contemplated thereby and hereby. The
Credit Parties acknowledge and confirm that the liens and security interests
granted pursuant to the Loan Documents secure the obligations, liabilities and
indebtedness of the Credit Parties to the Lenders under the Existing Credit
Agreement, as amended and restated hereby, and that the term "Secured
Obligations" used in certain of the Loan Documents (or any other term used
herein to describe or refer to the obligations, liabilities and indebtedness of
the Credit Parties) describes and refers to the Credit Parties' obligations,
liabilities and indebtedness hereunder and under the Existing Credit Agreement,
as amended and restated hereby, as the same may be further amended, modified,
supplemented or restated from time to time. The Loan Documents and all
agreements, documents and instruments executed and delivered in connection with
any of the foregoing shall each be deemed to be amended to the extent necessary
to give effect to the provisions of this Agreement. Cross-references in the Loan
Documents to particular section or subsection numbers in the Existing Credit
Agreement shall be deemed to be cross-references to the corresponding sections
or subsections, as applicable, of this Agreement.

             Holdings shall jointly execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent
             written instructions to deliver $1,000,000 of the Escrow Deposit
             (plus any associated interest) to LBI Holdings; provided that if
             the KQQK Closing Date is also a Simultaneous Closing Date or if the
             AM Asset Purchase Agreement has theretofore been terminated or is
             terminated on such date, then EDC and LBI Holdings shall jointly
             execute and deliver to the Escrow Agent written instructions to
             terminate the Escrow Agreement and deliver the entire Escrow
             Deposit to LBI Holdings.

             3.1.3  Post-Closing Proration. Following the KQQK Closing Date, the

       (a)   Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, on
       the KQQK Closing Date, LBI Holdings or Buyer shall deposit the Holdback
       with the Holdback Escrow Agent pursuant to the Holdback Escrow Agreement.
       The Holdback will be held, maintained, administered and disbursed by the

       of the AM Asset Purchase Agreement and of the Holdback Escrow Agreement,
       with the terms of the Holdback Escrow Agreement controlling in the event
       of any conflict.

       (b)   LBI Holdings and/or Buyer will submit claims to Seller by a written
       notice specifying the amount of the claim (or estimated amount if the
       claim is not reasonably quantifiable) and describing in reasonable detail
       the basis for the claim. If Seller does not notify LBI Holdings or Buyer,
       as the case may be, within 15 days after receiving such a notice of
       Seller's objection to the claim, LBI Holdings and EDC shall at the end of
       such 15 day period execute and deliver to Holdback Escrow Agent joint
       written instructions to deliver to Buyer from the Holdback an amount
       equal to the claimed amount, as determined in accordance with this
       Section 3.1.4. If Seller gives notice of objection to LBI Holdings or
       Buyer, as the case may be, within the 15-day period, and the Parties
       cannot reach agreement on the claim, LBI Holdings and EDC shall at the
       end of such 15 day period execute and deliver to Holdback Escrow Agent
       joint written instructions to deliver to Buyer from the Holdback an
       amount equal to the amount not in dispute, and the Parties will attempt
       in good faith to agree upon the amount in dispute. If the Parties cannot
       agree within thirty (30) days thereafter, the Parties will submit such
       dispute to arbitration, as provided for in Section 11.6. Within three
       business days of (i) reaching resolution of such dispute as to the amount
       (if any) that LBI Holdings and Buyer are entitled to (in the event that
       the parties reach resolution without submitting such dispute to
       arbitration), or (ii) an arbitrator determining the amount (if any) that
       LBI Holdings and Buyer are entitled to (in the event that such dispute is
       submitted to arbitration), LBI Holdings and EDC shall execute and deliver
       to Holdback Escrow Agent joint written instructions to deliver to Buyer
       from the Holdback an amount equal to such applicable amount. The failure
       to give notice of a claim hereunder will not constitute an election of
       remedies and will not limit LBI Holdings or Buyer in any manner in the
       enforcement of other remedies that may be available to it.

       extent the resolution calls for a payment to LBI Holdings and/or Buyer)
       or still pending on the date of such release, in each case pursuant to
       this Agreement or the AM Asset Purchase Agreement.

       (d)   On the twenty four month anniversary of the consummation of the

       Agreement does not occur, on the later of (i) the eighteenth month
       anniversary of the KQQK Closing Date or (ii) the date on which the AM
       Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated), LBI Holdings and EDC shall
       execute and deliver to the Holdback Escrow Agent written instructions to
       deliver to Seller the remainder of the Holdback, less any amounts
       required to satisfy claims asserted by LBI Holdings and/or Buyer and
       previously resolved (to the extent the resolution calls for a payment to

             Holdings such certificate.

             Deposit, will be delivered to Seller on the ninth business day (or,
             if Buyer has elected to defer the KQQK Closing Date as set forth in
             7.1, the thirty-ninth business day) after the KQQK Final Grant Day,
             it being understood and agreed that payment to Seller of $1,000,000

             the following paragraph) (or, prior to the Escrow Deposit being

             for any and all damages suffered by Seller by reason of LBI
             Holdings' or Buyer's failure to consummate the purchase and sale
             contemplated by this Agreement. Conditions to such delivery of

             CONSUMMATE THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE ASSETS DESCRIBED IN THIS
             AGREEMENT WOULD BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO CALCULATE;
             THAT $1,000,000 PLUS ANY ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF THE ESCROW DEPOSIT
             (OR, PRIOR TO THE ESCROW DEPOSIT BEING MADE, $1,000,000) IS A FAIR
             AND EQUITABLE AMOUNT TO REIMBURSE SELLER FOR ANY DAMAGES WHICH THE
             PARTIES ESTIMATE MAY BE SUSTAINED BY SELLER DUE TO BUYER'S FAILURE
             TO CONSUMMATE THE PURCHASE AND SALE OF THE ASSETS DESCRIBED IN THIS
             AGREEMENT UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES STATED IN THIS SECTION 3.3; AND

             THE CIRCUMSTANCES STATED IN THIS SECTION 3.3. IN THE EVENT THAT LBI
             HOLDINGS OR BUYER PROVIDES ESCROW AGENT A WRITTEN CHALLENGE
             CHALLENGING THE ACCURACY OF THE SELLER ESCROW PAYMENT CERTIFICATE
             (FM ONLY) AND A DISPUTE OVER THE DISBURSEMENT OF $1,000,000 PLUS
             ANY ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF THE ESCROW DEPOSIT ARISES THEREFROM,
             SUCH DISPUTE SHALL BE RESOLVED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SECTION 11.6. IF
             THE ARBITRATOR FINDS THAT THE SELLER ESCROW PAYMENT CERTIFICATE (FM
             ONLY) WAS ACCURATE AND THAT SUCH WRITTEN CHALLENGE WAS WITHOUT
             MERIT, THEN BUYER SHALL PAY SELLER (1) REASONABLE ATTORNEY'S FEES
             AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY SELLER IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DISPUTE AND
             (2) 10% INTEREST ON $1,000,000 PLUS ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF THE
             ESCROW DEPOSIT CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF SUCH WRITTEN CHALLENGE
             TO THE DATE THE $1,000,000 PLUS ANY ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF THE
             ESCROW DEPOSIT IS PAID TO SELLER. IF THE ARBITRATOR FINDS THAT THE
             SELLER ESCROW PAYMENT CERTIFICATE (FM ONLY) WAS INACCURATE AND THAT
             SUCH WRITTEN CHALLENGE WAS WITH MERIT, SELLER SHALL PAY BUYER (1)
             REASONABLE ATTORNEY'S FEES AND EXPENSES INCURRED BY LBI HOLDINGS
             AND BUYER IN CONNECTION WITH SUCH DISPUTE AND (2) 10% INTEREST ON
             THE $1,000,000 PLUS ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF THE ESCROW DEPOSIT
             CALCULATED FROM THE DATE OF SUCH WRITTEN CHALLENGE TO THE DATE THE
             $1,000,000 PLUS ANY ASSOCIATED INTEREST OF ESCROW DEPOSIT IS
             RETURNED TO BUYER.

             3.3.3  Delivery to LBI Holdings. In the event of a Simultaneous
             Closing or in the event of an FM Only Closing in which the AM Asset
             Purchase Agreement has theretofore been terminated or is terminated
             on such date, the Escrow Deposit shall be delivered to LBI
             Holdings. Subject to the following sentence, in the event that the
             purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement and/or the AM
             Asset Purchase Agreement is not consummated and Seller is not
             entitled to receive the Escrow Deposit in accordance with Section
             3.3.2, the entire Escrow Deposit shall be delivered to LBI
             Holdings. In the event of an FM Only Closing in which the AM Asset
             Purchase Agreement has not theretofore been terminated or is not
             terminated on such day, if the transactions contemplated by this
             Agreement are consummated, $1,000,000 of the Escrow Deposit (plus
             any associated interest) shall be delivered to LBI with the
             remainder of the Escrow Deposit remaining in place pursuant to the
             AM Asset Purchase Agreement to be released in accordance with
             Sections 3.3.2 and 3.3.3 thereof.

             3.4    Buyer's Remedies. If the purchase and sale contemplated by
this Agreement is not consummated because of the breach by Seller of its
representations, warranties or covenants hereunder in any material respect, and
Buyer is not in breach of its representations, warranties or covenants hereunder
in any material respect, Seller agrees that, in addition to any other rights and
remedies available at law or in equity, LBI Holdings and Buyer shall have the

                                       13

<PAGE>

following rights and remedies: (i) Buyer shall have the right to specific
performance of Seller's obligation to sell the Purchased Assets upon the terms
and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and incidental damages related to
such specific performance; (ii) LBI Holdings shall have the right to the return
of $1,000,000 of the Escrow Deposit (and associated interest); and (iii) LBI
Holdings and Buyer shall have the right to recover money damages for breach of
this Agreement, including but not limited to, benefit of the bargain damages and
compensation for transaction costs; provided, that if LBI Holdings and Buyer
obtain full remedies under clause (i) pursuant to a non-appealable judgment with
which Seller complies, then Buyer shall not thereafter have additional claims
under clause (iii) and if LBI Holdings and Buyer obtain full remedies under
clause (iii) pursuant to a non-appealable judgment with which Seller complies,
then Buyer shall not thereafter have additional claims under clause (i);
provided, further, that if the purchase and sale contemplated by this Agreement
is not consummated because the representation and warranty in the second
sentence of Section 4.6 would not be true on the KQQK Closing Date, then LBI
Holdings and Buyer shall have the remedies in clauses (i) and (ii) but not in
clause (iii). The Parties agree that remedy at law is inadequate and that
damages are not adequate to compensate LBI Holdings and Buyer.

             3.5   Allocation. The Purchase Price will be allocated as set forth
on Schedule V.

             3.6   Prorations. Other than the prepaid expenses set forth on
Schedule VIII and subject to the rights of Buyer and Seller pursuant to the FM
Local Marketing Agreement, the operation of Station KQQK and, subject to the FM
Local Marketing Agreement, all income, expenses and liabilities attributable
thereto through 11:59 p.m. on the day immediately preceding the KQQK Closing
Date will be for the account of Seller and thereafter for the account of LBI,
and all income and expenses relating to the operation of Station KQQK, including
such items as power and utilities charges, rents and other deferred items
relating to the operation of Station KQQK, will be prorated between Seller and
LBI in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently
applied, the proration to be made and paid, insofar as feasible, on the KQQK
Closing Date, with a final settlement sixty days after the KQQK Closing Date. In
the event of any disputes between the parties as to such adjustments, the
amounts not in dispute shall nonetheless be paid at the time provided herein and
such disputes shall be determined by an independent certified public accountant
mutually acceptable to the parties, and the fees and expenses of such accountant
shall be paid one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer.

                                   ARTICLE IV
                    REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES BY SELLER

             Seller hereby represents and warrants to LBI Holdings and Buyer as
follows:

             4.1   Organization and Standing. Each of EDC, EDC Sub, and EDC
License Sub is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation. Seller has the
requisite corporate power and authority to enter into and complete the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

             4.2   Authorization. All necessary corporate actions and
proceedings to duly approve the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the

                                       14

<PAGE>

Holdback Escrow Agreement, the Recipient Agreement, the FM Local Marketing
Agreement and other agreements, documents and instruments being executed by
Seller in connection herewith or therewith and the consummation of the
transaction contemplated hereby or thereby have been duly and validly taken by
Seller, and each of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Holdback Escrow
Agreement, the Recipient Agreement, the FM Local Marketing Agreement and other
agreements, documents and instruments being executed by Seller in connection
herewith or therewith has been duly and validly authorized, executed and
delivered by Seller and constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of
Seller, enforceable against Seller in accordance with and subject to their
respective terms.

             4.3    KQQK FCC Licenses, Transmitters and Towers.

             4.3.1  The KQQK FCC Licenses (all of which are listed on Schedule
             II, together with any pending applications for KQQK FCC Licenses)
             constitute all the licenses, permits and other authorizations
             required for and used in connection with the operation of Station
             KQQK. As of the date of this Agreement and as of the KQQK Closing
             Date, Seller is and shall be holder of all the KQQK FCC Licenses.
             Other than the Initial Grant of the KQQK Assignment Application, no
             additional order or grant is required from the FCC in order to
             consummate the assignment of the KQQK FCC Licenses to LBI Sub.
             Schedule II correctly sets forth the respective expiration date of
             each KQQK FCC License. Each KQQK FCC License is validly issued and
             in full force and effect. Seller has taken all actions and
             performed all of their respective obligations that are necessary to
             maintain the KQQK FCC Licenses without adverse modification or
             impairment, and complete and correct copies of the KQQK FCC
             Licenses and any pending applications therefor have been delivered
             to Buyer. No event has occurred with respect to Station KQQK (other
             than directly as a result of Buyer's actions under the FM Local
             Marketing Agreement) which (i) has resulted in, or after notice or
             lapse of time or both would result in, revocation, suspension,
             adverse modification, non-renewal or termination of or any order of
             forfeiture with respect to, any KQQK FCC License or (ii) materially
             and adversely affects or in the future may materially and adversely
             affect any rights of Seller or its assignees or transferees
             thereunder. None of the KQQK FCC Licenses requires that any
             assignment thereof must be approved by any public or other
             governmental authority other than the FCC.

             4.3.2  Seller is not a party to, and there are no investigations,
             notices of apparent liability, violations, forfeitures, notices of
             violation, orders to show cause or other orders or complaints
             issued by or before any court or regulatory body, including,
             without limitation, the FCC, or of any other proceedings (other
             than proceedings relating to the radio industry generally) that
             could in any manner threaten or adversely affect the validity or
             continued effectiveness of, or result in the adverse modification
             of, any of the KQQK FCC Licenses. In the event Seller learns of any
             such action, or the filing or issuance of any such order, notice or
             complaint, Seller promptly will notify Buyer of the same in writing
             and will take all reasonable measures to contest in good faith or
             seek removal or rescission of such action, order, notice or
             complaint. Station KQQK is now operating at its licensed

                                       15

<PAGE>

             power and antenna height, in accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses,
             and is in compliance with the Communications Act including, without
             limitation, rules governing the location of Station KQQK's main
             studio and rules governing the required contents of Station KQQK's
             public inspection files. Seller has no reason to believe that the
             KQQK FCC Licenses will not be renewed in the ordinary course.

             4.3.3  None of the facilities used in connection with the radio
             broadcasting operations of Seller relating to Station KQQK
             (including the Transmitter Buildings, the Transmitter Sites and the
             Towers) violates the provisions of any applicable building codes,
             fire regulations, building restrictions or other governmental
             ordinances, orders or regulations (including, without limitation,
             any applicable regulation of the Federal Aviation Administration),
             except where such violation would not impair, impede or affect
             adversely in any respect currently or in the future the continued
             uninterrupted operation of Station KQQK at its licensed power and
             in accordance with the other terms of the KQQK FCC Licenses, and
             each such facility is zoned so as to permit the commercial uses
             intended by the owner or occupier thereof. Schedule II identifies
             any outstanding variances or special use permits materially
             affecting any of Seller's facilities or the uses thereof and Seller
             is in compliance therewith. Seller has received no notice of any
             complaint being made against Station KQQK relating to its Tower,
             Transmitter Site, Transmitter Building or Seller's operation of
             such Station (including, without limitation, any complaint relating
             to the signals broadcast or otherwise transmitted from any Tower,
             either by Seller or by any person subleasing a portion of such
             Tower) except, in each case, where such complaint would not impair,
             impede or adversely affect the continued, uninterrupted operation
             of such Station. Each Tower has been appropriately registered with
             the Commission, as described in Schedule II.

             4.3.4  Seller is qualified to sell Station KQQK and to assign the
             KQQK FCC Licenses in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
             and in compliance with the Communications Act. Seller knows of no
             party who has expressed any intention to oppose FCC approval of the
             assignment of the KQQK FCC Licenses to LBI Sub, nor does Seller
             know of any reason why FCC consent to such assignment might be
             denied or delayed.

             4.3.5  Each report or certification filed by or on behalf of Seller
             with the FCC, including, without limitation, any filing pursuant to
             47 C.F.R. (S) 73.3615 with respect to its ownership of Station KQQK
             and any other filing relating to such Station, was filed, and was
             at the time of filing true, correct and complete in all material
             respects; there have been no changes in the ownership of Station
             KQQK since the filing of the most recent such ownership reports or
             certifications and those ownership reports and certifications are
             true, correct and complete in all respects.

                                       16

<PAGE>

             4.3.6  The operation of Station KQQK by Seller does not cause or
             result in exposure of workers or the general public to levels of
             radio frequency radiation in excess of the applicable limits stated
             in 47 C.F.R. ss. 1.1310.

             4.4    Purchased Assets. All items as of the date hereof used in
the operation of Station KQQK are listed and described in Schedule IV to this
Agreement. No other affiliate of EDC (including without limitations, direct or
indirect subsidiaries of EDC) other than Seller owns or has any rights, title or
interest in any Purchased Assets or is in any way involved with the operation of
Station KQQK. On the KQQK Closing Date, Seller will have good and valid title to
the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances, other than the
Encumbrances described in Schedule III, which Encumbrances will be released on
the KQQK Closing Date concurrently with the closing. Upon consummation of the
transactions set forth in this Agreement, Buyer will have good and valid title
to the Purchased Assets, free and clear of all Encumbrances (other than liens
granted to Buyer's lenders). Schedule III sets forth each release and/or UCC
termination statement required in order to release such Encumbrances on the KQQK
Closing Date. Schedule III also sets forth all currently effective UCC financing
statements that have been filed against any Purchased Asset. Seller has
maintained and has operated each Transmitter Site, each Tower, each Transmitter
Building and Station KQQK under and in accordance with the terms of all
applicable regulations in all material respects. Seller is not aware of any
complaints regarding the Transmitter Sites, the Towers, the Transmitter
Buildings, the antennas, the radio transmitters or the studio facilities. There
is no pending or, to the knowledge of Seller, threatened action, event,
transaction or proceeding that could interfere with the quiet enjoyment or
operation of the Purchased Assets by Seller or, on and after the KQQK Closing
Date, by Buyer. Buyer will have on and after the KQQK Closing Date reasonable
access to each of the Transmitter Sites, and a continuous means of ingress and
egress thereto from public roads. The items of Tangible Personal Property are in
all material respects in good operating condition for equipment of their age and
usage (ordinary wear and tear excepted). The technical equipment, constituting a
part of the Tangible Personal Property, has been maintained in accordance with
Station KQQK's past practice and is operating and complies in all material
respects with all applicable rules and regulations of the FCC and the terms of
the KQQK FCC Licenses and Permits. The Purchased Assets include all the personal
property and assets, including real estate rights, necessary to conduct the
operation of Station KQQK as now conducted. The sale of the Purchased Assets
relating to Station KQQK is a sale of the entire operating assets of a business
or of a separate division, branch, or identifiable segment of a business within
the meaning of Texas Tax Code Section 151.304 and Texas Administrative Code
Section 3.316.

             4.5    Insurance. Seller now has in force insurance on the
Purchased Assets as set forth in Schedule VI and will continue the present
insurance at the present limits in full force and effect up through the KQQK
Closing Date.

             4.6    Litigation. On or prior to the date of this Agreement, no

litigation, action, suit, judgment, proceeding or, to the knowledge of Seller,
investigation relating to Station KQQK is pending or outstanding before any
forum, court, or governmental body, department or agency of any kind to which
Seller or Station KQQK is a party and, to the knowledge of Seller, no such
litigation or proceeding is threatened. On or prior to the KQQK Closing Date, no
litigation, action, suit, judgment, proceeding or, to the knowledge of Seller,
investigation relating

                                       17

<PAGE>

to Station KQQK (except for such litigation, action, suit, judgment, proceeding
or investigation arising directly as a result of Buyer's actions under the FM
Local Marketing Agreement) that could reasonably be expected or would reasonably
be expected to adversely affect the operation of Station KQQK in accordance with
Seller's past operations or could reasonably be expected or would reasonably be
expected to prevent a consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby shall
be pending or outstanding before any forum, court or governmental body,
department or agency of any kind to which Seller or Station KQQK is a party,
and, to the knowledge of Seller, no such litigation or proceeding shall be
threatened.

             4.7   Contracts. Seller has delivered to Buyer prior to the KQQK
Closing Date true and complete copies of all Contracts (in the case of oral
agreements, a written summary of the key terms of such oral Contracts),
including without limitation the Assumed Contracts. The Assumed Contracts will
be enforceable by Buyer after the consummation of the transaction contemplated
hereby in accordance with their respective terms; provided, however, that Seller
makes no warranty as to performance by any other party to any Assumed Contracts
or as to LBI's ability to collect any payments due or to become due thereunder.
Seller has not taken any action that would impair the enforceability of the
Assumed Contracts, or omitted to take any action, the omission of which would
have such effect. There are no material defaults under any of the Assumed
Contracts and the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby will not
cause any defaults under any of the Assumed Contracts.

             4.8   Insolvency. No insolvency proceedings of any character
including, without limitation, bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization,
composition or arrangement with creditors, voluntary or involuntary, affecting
Seller or any of its assets or properties is pending or, to the knowledge of
Seller, threatened.

             4.9   Reports. All material returns, reports and statements
currently required to be filed by Seller with the Commission or with any other
governmental agency have been filed and each such return, report and statement
is true, correct and complete in all material respects. Seller has complied in
all material respects with the reporting requirements of the Commission and
other governmental authorities having jurisdiction over Station KQQK and its
operations.

             4.10  No Defaults. Neither the execution, delivery and performance
by Seller of this Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Holdback Escrow
Agreement, the Recipient Agreement, the FM Local Marketing Agreement and other
agreements, documents and instruments being executed by Seller in connection
herewith or therewith nor the consummation by Seller of the transaction
contemplated hereby is an event that, of itself or with the giving of notice or
the passage of time or both, will (i) conflict with the provisions of the
Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of Seller, (ii) constitute a violation of,
conflict with or result in any breach of or any default under, result in any
termination or modification of, or cause any acceleration of any obligation
under, any material contract, mortgage, indenture, agreement, lease, license or
other instrument to which Seller is a party or by which it is bound, or by which
it may be affected, or result in the creation of any Encumbrance on any of the
Purchased Assets, (iii) violate any judgment, decree, order, statute, rule or
regulation applicable to Seller or (iv) violate or constitute a breach of any
Assumed Contract. The execution, delivery and performance by Seller of this
Agreement, the Escrow Agreement, the Holdback Escrow Agreement, the Recipient
Agreement, the FM Local Marketing Agreement and other

                                       18

<PAGE>

agreements, documents and instruments being executed by Seller in connection
herewith or therewith and the consummation by Seller of the transactions
contemplated hereby do not require the consent of any third party other than as
listed on Schedule III.

             4.11   Disclosures. No covenant, representation or warranty by
Seller and no written statement, certificate, appendix or Schedule furnished by
Seller pursuant hereto or in connection with the transaction contemplated hereby
contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements contained herein or therein not materially
misleading.

             4.12   Environmental Compliance. (i) Seller has not, in connection
with its business or assets, generated, used, transported, treated, stored,
released or disposed of, or has suffered and has permitted no one else to

Substance (as defined below) in violation of any applicable environmental law;
(ii) to the knowledge of Seller, there has not been any generation, use,
transportation, treatment, storage, release or disposal of any Hazardous

reasonably be expected to create any material liability under any applicable
environmental law or which would require reporting to or notification of any
governmental entity; (iii) to the knowledge of Seller, no asbestos or
polychlorinated biphenyl or underground storage tank is contained in or located
at any facility used in connection with its business; and (iv) to the knowledge
of Seller, any Hazardous Substance handled or dealt with in any way in
connection with Seller's business has been and is being handled or dealt with in
all material respects in compliance with all applicable environmental laws. As
used herein, "Hazardous Substance" means substances that are defined or listed
in, or otherwise classified pursuant to, any applicable laws as "hazardous
substances," "hazardous materials," "hazardous wastes" or "toxic substances," or
any other formulation of any applicable environmental law intended to define,
list or classify substances by reason of deleterious properties such as
ignitibility, corrosivity, reactivity, radioactivity, carcinogenicity,
reproductive toxicity or "EP toxicity," and petroleum and drilling fluids,
produced waters and other wastes associated with the exploration, development,
or production of crude oil, natural gas or geothermal energy.

             4.13   Intellectual Property.

             4.13.1 Schedule VII contains a true and complete list of all
             patents and trademarks, service marks, station names, alternative
             station names, slogans, trade names, logos, jingles, assumed names,

             6.1.3  Reasonable Access. In addition to the rights of Buyer under

             such additional information concerning Station KQQK as Buyer may

             Buyer may identify in its sole and absolute discretion without
             liability to Seller. Without limiting the generality of the
             foregoing, Seller will promptly (and in any event within two
             business days) deliver to Buyer any information requested by Buyer
             (if applicable, for specified time periods requested by Buyer) that
             is within the scope of information described in Schedule X annexed
             hereto and that is then available (or should reasonably be
             available) to Seller. A copy of the information so requested by
             Buyer shall be delivered to Buyer and a copy of such information
             shall also remain at the office of Seller (at the address set forth
             in Section 11.1) at all times. Seller shall update in its records
             the information described in Schedule X on a timely basis in
             accordance with its past practices. Buyer may request such

             insurance policies identified on Schedule VI or reasonably
             equivalent policies. Seller will use the proceeds of any claims for
             loss payable under such insurance policies to repair, replace, or
             restore any of the Purchased Assets destroyed by fire and other
             casualties to their former condition as soon as possible after the
             loss.

             6.1.7  Notification. Seller will promptly upon Seller's learning of
             the same notify Buyer of any order to show cause, notice of
             violation, notice of apparent liability or of forfeiture or the
             filing or written threat of filing of any complaint against Station
             KQQK or against Seller in connection with Station KQQK, occurring
             between the date hereof and the KQQK Closing Date, and respond to
             any action, order, notice or written complaints, and implement

                                       23

<PAGE>

             ensure that the complaints or violations will not recur. Without
             limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller will also promptly
             upon Seller's learning of the same notify Buyer of any complaint
             being made against Station KQQK relating to its Tower, Transmitter
             Site, Transmitter Building or Seller's operation of such Station
             (including, without limitation, any complaint related to the
             signals broadcast or otherwise transmitted from such Tower, either
             by Seller or by any person subleasing a portion of such Tower but
             not including complaints relating to the programming or content of
             Station KQQK, such complaints which are subject to the first
             sentence of this section). Without limiting the generality of the
             foregoing, Seller will promptly (and in any event within three
             business days) upon Seller's obtaining knowledge of the same notify
             Buyer of (i) any termination of sales orders or threats of
             termination in either case by any advertiser whose orders total
             more than $2,000 per month or by Seller or (ii) the ceasing of
             employment of any employee of Station KQQK who is either an account
             executive or earns more than $30,000 per year.

             6.1.8  Contracts. Seller will provide a copy of any Contract that
             involves more than $2,000 per month or with any service provider or
             advertiser it enters into prior to the KQQK Closing Date (or a
             written description of such Contract, if oral) within five business
             days of entering into such Contract and in any event prior to the
             KQQK Closing Date. Seller will not enter into any Contract after
             the execution of the FM Local Marketing Agreement without the prior
             written consent of Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably
             withheld.

             6.1.9  Transition Assistance. Seller will use best efforts (without
             incurring unreasonable costs) to assist Buyer in transitioning
             third party provided services such as utilities, phone service,
             etc. and in transitioning advertisers.

             6.1.10 Assistance in Transfer of Records and Data. Seller will
             fully cooperate with Buyer and make such advance preparations
             (including making copies in advance, collecting paperwork,
             coordinating information about computer systems and configurations)
             as are necessary so that Seller can deliver, and Seller shall
             deliver, the data and records required to be delivered under
             Section 2.1.4 to Buyer (including the transfer of data from
             Seller's computer systems to Buyer's computer systems) on the
             fifteenth business day prior to the Effective Date with title to
             such data and records transferring to Buyer only on the KQQK
             Closing Date; provided, however, that if after Seller's
             commercially reasonable efforts an electronic transfer is not
             possible, the same data may be transferred by Seller by manual
             input on the tenth business day prior to the Effective Date with
             costs of such manual input to be shared between Buyer and Seller.
             Such data and records shall be updated on a daily basis until the
             Effective Date.

             model or advertising sales strategy; provided, however, that
             nothing in this Section 6.2.4 is intended to constitute an
             impermissible abrogation of a licensee's responsibilities under the
             Communications Act to maintain control of the operation of Station
             KQQK; provided, further, that actions taken by Buyer pursuant to

             written consent with respect to such modification, which consent
             shall not be withheld unreasonably in the case of modifications
             required pursuant to a casualty event), or take any action which
             would cause the FCC or any other governmental authority to
             institute proceedings for the suspension, revocation or adverse
             modification of any of the KQQK FCC Licenses or Permits, or fail to
             prosecute with due diligence any pending applications to any
             governmental authority in connection with the operation of Station

             Agreement.

                              ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

             7.1    Determination of KQQK Closing Date. The KQQK Closing Date
shall occur at 5:00 p.m. CST on the 5/th/ business day following the KQQK Final
Grant Day or such other time mutually agreed to in writing by the Parties unless
Buyer has notified Seller by that time that it intends to close on a date
consistent with the following proviso; provided, however, that (i) if on or
prior to the date which otherwise would have been the KQQK Closing Date it
appears in Buyer's reasonable judgment that the KEYH Closing Date could
reasonably be expected to occur within 30 days from the date which would
otherwise have been the KQQK Closing Date, then, if Buyer so chooses in its sole
discretion, the KQQK Closing Date shall be delayed for up to 30 days (as from
time to time specified by Buyer) in order to consummate a Simultaneous Closing,
and (ii) if following a determination to delay the KQQK Closing Date in
accordance with clause (i) of this proviso it is determined that the delay prior
to the KEYH Closing Date will be longer than 30 days from the date which would
otherwise have been the KQQK Closing Date (prior to taking into account any
delay occurring as a result of clause (i) of this proviso), Buyer may cause the
KQQK Closing Date to occur on the 5th business day after giving notice of such
determination to Seller. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the
contrary, Buyer, in its sole discretion, may choose to have the KQQK Closing
Date occur prior to the KQQK Final Grant Day so long as the Initial Grant has
occurred. Buyer shall in that instance choose a date no earlier than 5:00 p.m.
on the 5th business day following notice of such determination to Seller;
provided, however, that Buyer may revoke such determination at any time prior to
the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby with respect to Station
KQQK, in which case the KQQK Closing Date shall be determined pursuant to the
first sentence of this Section 7.l.

             7.2    Application for Commission Consent; Other Consents;
Pre-Closing.

             7.2.1  FCC Consent; Compliance with Schedule II. Buyer and Seller
             agree to proceed as expeditiously as practical, and in no event
             later than fifteen business days after the execution hereof by
             Buyer and Seller, to file or cause to be filed the KQQK Assignment
             Application requesting FCC consent to the transaction contemplated
             by this Agreement. The Parties agree that the KQQK Assignment
             Application will be prosecuted in good faith and with due
             diligence, including filing and cooperating with all requests of
             the Commission. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement will
             have to be filed with the FCC. The Parties further acknowledge that
             the KQQK Assignment Application may have to be amended from time to
             time prior to the date it is granted to reflect any changes
             resulting from Buyer's financing and related arrangements. Seller
             shall comply with the requirements set forth in Sections A, B and C
             of Schedule II.

             7.2.2  Other Governmental Consents. Promptly, but not later than
             ten business days following the filing of the KQQK Assignment
             Application, the Parties will

                                       26

<PAGE>

             proceed to prepare and file with all other appropriate governmental
             authorities (if any), such other requests for approval or waiver as
             may be required from such governmental authorities to permit the
             transfer of the KQQK FCC Licenses and Permits and the Purchased
             Assets, or as otherwise required in connection with the transaction
             contemplated hereby and will jointly, diligently and expeditiously
             prosecute, and will cooperate fully with each other in the
             prosecution of, such requests for approval or waiver and all
             proceedings necessary to secure such approvals and waivers. The
             Parties hereby acknowledge that no filings will be required under
             the HSRA because both the Purchase Price and the fair market value
             of the Purchased Assets and Assumed Contracts, together with the
             Purchased Assets and Assumed Contracts under the AM Asset Purchase
             Agreement, are less than $50,000,000.

             7.2.3  Control of the Station. This Agreement shall not be
             consummated until the KQQK Closing Date. Prior to the KQQK Closing
             Date, Seller shall continue to control the operation of Station
             KQQK with Buyer's interest in Station KQQK being limited to its
             rights under this Agreement, the KQQK Assignment Application and
             the FM Local Marketing Agreement.

             7.2.4  Preclosing. Buyer and Seller agree to hold a pre-closing
             (delivering to their respective counsel all closing documents to
             which they are a party) on a mutually agreeable date no later than
             at least 3 business days prior to the scheduled KQQK Closing Date.

             7.2.5  Rescission. As Buyer has the option to close the
             transactions contemplated by this Agreement prior to the KQQK Final
             Grant Day, if prior to such time the Initial Grant is reversed or
             otherwise set aside pursuant to a final order of the FCC or the
             final, unappealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction,
             then the parties shall comply with such order in a manner that
             otherwise complies with applicable law and returns the parties to
             the status quo ante in all material respects, including the return
             of the Purchase Price to Buyer and the return of Station KQQK to
             Seller (it being understood that in such event Seller may, within
             the lesser of thirty (30) days or such shorter time as is available
             to allow the Parties to comply with the final order, designate one
             or more third parties, each of whom is qualified, in Seller's
             reasonable belief, to hold the KQQK FCC Licenses in accordance with
             the FCC rules, as the assignees of Station KQQK). In the event a
             third party challenges the KQQK Assignment Application, whether
             prior to or following Initial Grant, the Parties shall cooperate to
             rebut such challenge and, in the event that the Initial Grant is
             set aside as a result of such challenge, the parties shall exhaust
             all administrative and judicial appeals to protect the Initial
             Grant and have it become a final, unappealable grant at all times
             prior to the date on which a Party terminates this Agreement
             pursuant to Section 7.3 or 7.4.

             7.3    Mutual Right to Terminate. Subject to the provisions of
Section 7.6.2, if the purchase and sale transaction contemplated by the FM Asset
Purchase Agreement has not occurred on or before the first anniversary of the
date of this Agreement (or if the effective

                                       27

<PAGE>

period of FCC's consent is extended as described in Section 7.6.2 for a certain
number of days due to any damage or event that prevents broadcast transmissions
of Station KQQK, then the date which occurs that many days (but not exceeding in
any event 120 days) after the first anniversary of the date of this Agreement),
either Buyer or Seller, if such Party is not materially in default hereunder in
a manner which has delayed the occurrence of the purchase and sale transaction
contemplated by the FM Asset Purchase Agreement, may terminate this Agreement
upon five days' written notice to the other Party.

             7.4    Buyer's Right to Terminate. Buyer, at its option, may
terminate this Agreement, so long as Buyer is not then in material default under
or material breach of this Agreement, upon the happening of any of the following
events:

             7.4.1  (i) The KQQK FCC Licenses or other Permits are modified as a
             result of any action initiated by Seller without the consent of
             Buyer, whose consent shall not be unreasonably withheld if such
             modification is required pursuant to a casualty event, or (ii) the
             KQQK FCC Licenses or other Permits are unilaterally modified by the
             FCC and such modification results in an adverse change in Buyer's
             ability to operate Station KQQK in a manner consistent with
             Seller's past operations thereof, or (iii) the terms of the KQQK
             FCC Licenses or other Permits are substantially modified resulting
             in an adverse change in Buyer's ability to operate Station KQQK in
             a manner consistent with Seller's past operations thereof;
             provided, however, that Sections 7.4.1(ii) and 7.4.1(iii) shall not
             apply if such modification is a result of a modification of FCC
             rules, regulations or policies affecting all members of the class
             of holders of FCC licenses to which Seller belongs as the holder of
             the KQQK FCC License;

             7.4.2  The KQQK Assignment Application is designated for a hearing
             before an administrative law judge;

             7.4.3  The FCC institutes revocation of license proceedings against
             Station KQQK; or

             7.4.4  Seller is in material breach of this Agreement ten business
             days after notice of breach and has not commenced and continued to
             prosecute diligently a cure therefor or such breach is or becomes
             incurable.

             7.5    Seller's Right to Terminate. Seller, at its option, may
terminate this Agreement, so long as Seller is not then in material default
under or material breach of this Agreement, upon the happening of any of the
following events:

             7.5.1  The KQQK Assignment Application is designated for a hearing
             before an administrative law judge; or

             7.5.2  Buyer is in material breach of this Agreement ten business
             days after notice of breach and has not commenced and continued to
             prosecute diligently a cure therefor or such breach is or becomes
             incurable.

             7.6    Risk of Loss.

             7.6.1  The risk of loss and damage, whether by force majeure or for
             any other reason, to the Purchased Assets or the operation of
             Station KQQK between the date of this Agreement and the KQQK
             Closing Date will be on Seller. Seller shall take all reasonable
             steps to repair, replace and restore the Purchased Assets as soon
             as possible after any loss or damage, it being understood and
             agreed that all insurance proceeds with respect thereto
             ("Proceeds") will be applied to or reserved for such replacement,
             restoration or repair, but that Seller will have no obligation to
             repair, replace or restore in excess of the Proceeds (plus any
             applicable deductible payment). In instances where the loss and
             damage to the Purchased Assets, together with any loss or damage to
             the Purchased Assets as defined in the AM Asset Purchase Agreement,
             is less than $1,500,000 in the aggregate (or, if the loss or damage
             is to the tower used in the operation of Station KQQK, then
             $2,500,000 in the aggregate) in Buyer's reasonable estimation,
             Buyer's sole remedy if Seller elects not to (or, with respect to
             the Purchased Assets as defined in the AM Asset Purchase Agreement,
             does not cause Artlite to or causes Artlite not to) fully repair,
             replace or restore will be to close in accordance with Section
             7.6.3 below. In instances where the loss and damage to the
             Purchased Assets, together with any loss or damage to the Purchased
             Assets as defined in the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, is equal to
             or greater than $1,500,000 (net of insurance proceeds to the extent
             received and applied to repair, replace or restore the damaged
             Purchased Assets or the Purchased Assets as defined in the AM Asset
             Purchase Agreement) in the aggregate (or, if the loss or damage is
             to the tower used in the operation of Station KQQK, then $2,500,000
             (net of insurance proceeds to the extent received and applied) in
             the aggregate) in Buyer's reasonable estimation, Buyer's sole
             remedies if Seller elects not to (or , with respect to the
             Purchased Assets as defined in the AM Asset Purchase Agreement,
             does not cause Artlite to or causes Artlite not to) fully repair,
             replace or restore will be (i) to terminate both this Agreement and
             the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, in which case the Escrow Deposit
             will be delivered to LBI Holdings, or (ii) to close in accordance
             with Section 7.6.3 below.

             7.6.2  In the event of any damage or event that prevents broadcast
             transmissions of Station KQQK in the normal and usual manner and
             substantially in accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses (other than
             scheduled ordinary course maintenance), Seller will give prompt
             notice thereof to Buyer and Buyer, in addition to its other rights
             and remedies, will have the right to postpone the KQQK Closing Date
             until transmission in accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses has
             been resumed. The postponed KQQK Closing Date will be any date
             within the effective period of the FCC's consent to assignment of
             the KQQK FCC Licenses to LBI Sub as Buyer may designate by not less
             than five business days' prior written notice to Seller. During the
             period of postponement, Seller shall use its best efforts to resume
             broadcast transmissions. In the event transmission in accordance
             with the KQQK FCC Licenses cannot be resumed within the effective
             period of the FCC's consent to assignment of the KQQK FCC Licenses
             to LBI Sub, the Parties will join in an application or applications
             requesting the FCC to

                                       29

<PAGE>

             extend the effective period of its consent for one or more periods
             not to exceed 120 days in the aggregate. If transmission in
             accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses has not been resumed so that
             the KQQK Closing Date does not occur within such extended period,
             or any agreed extension thereof, Buyer will have the right, by
             giving written notice to Seller within five business days after the
             expiration of such 120-day period, or any agreed extension thereof,
             to terminate this Agreement and the AM Asset Purchase Agreement
             forthwith without any further obligation, in which case the Escrow
             Deposit will be delivered to LBI Holdings. In the event
             transmission is not in accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses but
             substantially in accordance with the KQQK FCC Licenses, Buyer
             agrees to negotiate in good faith with Seller for no more than
             twenty business days prior to exercising its rights under this
             Section (which negotiation shall not result in an extension of the
             120 day period).

             7.6.3  If any loss of or damage to the Purchased Assets (including
             but not limited to any Tower or any Transmitter Building) occurs
             prior to the KQQK Closing Date and full repair, replacement or
             restoration of all Purchased Assets has not been made on or before
             the KQQK Closing Date (as the KQQK Closing Date may be extended as
             provided in Section 7.6.2), or the cost thereof is greater than the
             Proceeds (plus any applicable deductible), then Buyer will be
             entitled, but not obligated (except in the instances described in
             the second to the last sentence in Section 7.6.1), to accept the
             Purchased Assets in their then-current condition and will receive
             an abatement or reduction in the Purchase Price in an amount equal
             to the difference between the amount necessary to fully repair or
             replace the damaged Purchased Assets and the amount of the unused
             Proceeds, in which case Buyer will be entitled to all the unused
             Proceeds and payment of the deductible amount. If Buyer elects to
             accept (or, in the instance described in the second to the last
             sentence in Section 7.6.1, Buyer accepts) damaged Purchased Assets
             at a reduced Purchase Price, the Parties agree to cooperate in
             determining the amount of the reduction to the Purchase Price in
             accordance with the provisions hereof.

             7.7    Transfer Taxes and FCC Filings; Expenses; Bulk Sales.

             7.7.1  Transfer Taxes; FCC Filings. All federal, state or local
             taxes based on excise, sales or use taxes or similar taxes or costs
             imposed on or in connection with the sale, purchase or transfer of
             the Purchased Assets and assumption of the Assumed Contracts by
             Buyer pursuant hereto will be borne one-half by Buyer and one-half
             by Seller; provided, however, if the representation by Seller made
             pursuant to the last sentence of Section 4.4 should be false, all
             such taxes payable by Buyer shall be considered a loss resulting
             from breach of such representation by Seller and be subject to
             indemnification pursuant to Article X. All FCC filing fees relating
             to the KQQK Assignment Application will be shared equally by Buyer
             and Seller. Buyer shall be responsible for the payment of the
             filing fees in connection with the filing (if any) required under
             the HSRA.

             7.7.2  Expenses. Except as otherwise provided herein, Buyer and
             Seller shall each pay its own expenses incident to the negotiation,
             preparation and

                                       30

             performance of this Agreement and consummation of the transaction
             contemplated hereby, including but not limited to the fees,
             expenses and disbursements of its accountants and counsel.

             7.7.3  Compliance With Bulk Sales Laws. If applicable, any loss,
             liability, obligation or cost suffered by Seller or Buyer as the
             result of the failure of Seller or Buyer to comply with the
             provisions of any bulk sales laws applicable to the transfer of the
             Purchased Assets as contemplated by this Agreement will be borne
             one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.

             7.8    Invoices. If advertisers whose advertisements air on Station
KQQK on or after the Effective Date make payments prior to, on or after the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement to Seller rather
than to Buyer with respect to such advertisements, Seller shall hold such
amounts in trust for Buyer, shall promptly notify Buyer of the receipt of such
funds and shall forward such amounts to Buyer within 5 business days. If
advertisers whose advertisements aired on Station KQQK prior to the Effective
Date make payments prior to, on or after the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement to Buyer rather than to Seller with respect to
such pre-Effective Date advertisements, Buyer shall hold such amounts in trust
for Sellers, shall promptly notify Sellers of the receipt of such funds and
shall forward such amounts to Sellers within 5 business days.

to transmit programming to the Microwave Facility by telephone line and Sellers
will perform all maintenance on the Microwave Facility after the KQQK Closing

             7.10   Recipient Agreement. Seller shall use its best efforts to
cause all Sales Proceeds Recipients to promptly after the date hereof execute
and deliver the Recipient Agreement.

             effect and no defaults exist thereunder and confirmation of the
             terms of each lease).

             radio broadcasting industry generally, no litigation, action, suit,
             judgment, proceeding, complaint or investigation shall be pending

             department or agency of any kind, relating to the operation of
             Station KQQK or which has the stated purpose or the probable effect
             of enjoining or preventing the consummation of this Agreement, or
             the transaction contemplated hereby or to recover damages by reason
             thereof, or which questions the validity of any action taken or to
             be taken pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement; provided
             that if there is pending any litigation relating to Station KQQK
             that could not reasonably be expected to or would not reasonably be

             10.1.3 Any and all Damages occasioned by, arising out of or
             resulting from any legal, administrative, or tax proceedings

assigns, for a period of eighteen months following the consummation of the

             10.2.1 Any and all Damages occasioned by, arising out of or
             resulting from the operation of Station KQQK on or subsequent to
             the KQQK Closing Date, including, but not limited to, any and all
             claims, liabilities and obligations arising or required to be
             performed on or subsequent to the KQQK Closing Date under any of
             the Assumed Contracts or otherwise with respect to Buyer's
             ownership and operation of Station KQQK from and after the KQQK
             Closing Date; and

             10.2.2 Any and all Damages occasioned by, arising out of or
             resulting from any material misrepresentation, material breach of
             warranty or covenant, or material default or material
             nonfulfillment, of any agreement on the part of LBI Holdings or
             Buyer under this Agreement, or from any material misrepresentation
             in or material breach of any certificate, agreement, appendix,
             Schedule or other instrument furnished to Seller pursuant to this
             Agreement or in connection with the transaction contemplated
             hereby; provided, that any breach of Section 7.8 shall be deemed
             material regardless of the cash value of such breach.

             10.3   Third-Party Claims. In the event of third party claims, each
Party ("Indemnified Party") shall give written notice to the other Party
("Indemnifying Party") as soon as practicable and in no event later than ten
business days after the Indemnified Party has knowledge of any facts which in
its opinion entitle or may entitle it to indemnification under this Section
10.3. Seller, on the one hand, and LBI Holdings and Buyer, on the other, shall
be considered a single Party for purposes of this Section 10.3 and Section 10.4.
However, failure to give such notice will not preclude the Indemnified Party
from seeking indemnification hereunder, unless, and to the extent that, such
failure adversely affects to a material degree the Indemnifying Party's ability
to defend against such a claim. The Indemnifying Party will promptly defend such
a claim by counsel approved by the Indemnified Party, which approval shall not
be unreasonably withheld, and the Indemnified Party may appear at any
proceeding, at its own cost, by counsel of its own choosing and will otherwise
reasonably cooperate in the defense of such claim, provided that the
Indemnifying Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party all reasonable
costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred in the course of cooperating in the
defense of such claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be responsible for all costs
and expenses of any settlement. If the Indemnifying Party within ten business
days after notice of a claim fails to defend the Indemnified Party, the
Indemnified Party will be entitled to undertake the defense, compromise or
settlement of such claim at the expense of and for the account and risk of the
Indemnifying Party. Anything in this Section to the contrary notwithstanding:

             10.3.1 If LBI Holdings or Buyer is the Indemnified Party and in the
             reasonable judgment of LBI Holdings or Buyer there is a reasonable
             probability that a claim

                                       38

<PAGE>

             may materially and adversely affect the Indemnified Party or its
             continued operation of Station KQQK, the Indemnified Party will
             have the right, at its own cost and expense, to undertake the
             prosecution, compromise and settlement of such claim, and the
             Indemnifying Party will cooperate with the Indemnified Party;

             10.3.2 If the facts giving rise to indemnification hereunder
             involve a possible claim by the Indemnified Party against a third
             party, the Indemnified Party will have the right, at its own cost
             and expense, to undertake the prosecution, compromise and
             settlement of such claim; and

             10.3.3 The Indemnifying Party will not, without the consent of the
             Indemnified Party, enter into or settle or compromise any claim or
             consent to any entry of judgment which (i) in the reasonable
             judgment of LBI Holdings or Buyer may materially and adversely
             affect LBI Holdings or Buyer or their continued operation of
             Station KQQK, and (ii) does not include as an unconditional term
             thereof the giving by the claimant or the plaintiff to the
             Indemnified Party of a full and complete release from all liability
             in respect to such claim.

             10.4   Cap and Basket. Neither Party will be entitled to
indemnification under this Article X until Damages to such Party (combined with
any Damages to such Party under the AM Purchase Agreement) exceed $50,000 in the
aggregate (except for claims pursuant to Section 7.8 of this Agreement and
Section 7.9 of the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, which shall be reimbursed from
the first dollar for both parties). Once Damages to any Party (combined with any
Damages to such Party under the AM Purchase Agreement) exceed $50,000 in the
aggregate (excluding all claims made pursuant to Section 7.8 of this Agreement
and Section 7.9 of the AM Asset Purchase Agreement), such Party will be entitled
to recover the entire amount of the Damages to the maximum extent permitted by
this Agreement. The Parties agree that any materiality qualification set forth
in this Agreement shall not be taken into account in determining the magnitude
of Damages occasioned by any breach for purposes of calculating whether such
$50,000 threshold has been reached. The Parties agree that (i) with respect to
all claims made pursuant to Article X hereof or Article X of the AM Asset
Purchase Agreement during the period beginning on the date of consummation of
the transactions contemplated by the FM Asset Purchase Agreement on the KQQK
Closing Date and ending on the twelve month anniversary of such date, the
maximum aggregate amount for which either Buyer and LBI Holdings on the one hand
or Seller on the other hand will be responsible for pursuant to this Agreement
and, if the purchase and sale transaction contemplated by the AM Asset Purchase
Agreement occurs, the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, is $1,500,000 in the
aggregate and (ii) with respect to all claims made pursuant to Article X hereof
or Article X of the AM Asset Purchase Agreement during the period commencing on
the date after the end of the applicable period set forth in clause (i) of this
sentence and ending on the twenty four month anniversary of the consummation of
the transaction contemplated by the AM Asset Purchase Agreement (or if the
purchase and sale transaction contemplated under the AM Asset Purchase Agreement
does not occur, ending on the later of (x) the eighteenth month anniversary of
the KQQK Closing Date or (y) the date on which the AM Asset Purchase Agreement
is terminated), the maximum aggregate amount for which either Buyer and LBI
Holdings on one hand or Seller on the other hand will be responsible for
pursuant to this Agreement and, if the purchase and sale transaction
contemplated by the AM Asset Purchase Agreement occurs, the AM Asset Purchase
Agreement,

                                       39

is $700,000 (above and beyond up to $800,000 of claims made during the period
set forth in clause (i) of this sentence) (it being understood that
notwithstanding the preceding portion of this clause (ii), neither Buyer and LBI
Holdings on the one hand nor Seller on the other hand will be responsible for
any claims made after the eighteen month anniversary of the consummation of the
transaction contemplated by this Agreeement pursuant to Article X hereof and
that the maximum aggregate amount for which either Buyer and LBI Holdings on one
hand or Seller on the other hand will be responsible for pursuant to this
Agreement with respect to claims made during the six month period between the
twelve month anniversary and the eighteen month anniversary of the consummation
of the transaction contemplated by this Agreement under this Article X is
$500,000 (above and beyond up to $1,000,000 of claims made during the period set
forth in clause (i) of this sentence)); provided that the caps set forth in this
paragraph shall not apply to any claims made under the AM Asset Purchase
Agreement prior to the consummation of the transaction contemplated thereunder
on the KEYH Closing Date.

             10.5   Holdback. LBI Holdings and Buyer shall be entitled to
receive any amounts owing by Seller to LBI Holdings or Buyer pursuant to this
Agreement or the AM Asset Purchase Agreement (including Article X hereof and
thereof) from the Holdback and Seller agrees to promptly give the Holdback
Escrow Agent written instructions to immediately release such amounts from the
Holdback to LBI Holdings. Buyer agrees to promptly give the Holdback Escrow
Agent written instructions to immediately release the amounts as determined by
Sections 3.1.4(c) and 3.1.4(d) in this Agreement to the extent Seller is
entitled to receive such amounts.

             10.6   Survival of Representations and Warranties. The
representations and warranties contained in this Agreement or in any Schedule or
Exhibit, or in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant to this
Agreement, will survive the consummation of the transaction contemplated hereby
on the KQQK Closing Date for a period of eighteen months; provided that if a
claim or notice is given under this Article X or otherwise with respect to any
such representation and warranty prior to such expiration date, such claim shall
continue (and such representation and warranty shall survive) indefinitely until
such claim is finally resolved.

                            MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

             11.2   Benefit and Assignment. This Agreement will be binding upon
and inure to the benefit of the Parties, and their respective successors and
assigns. This Agreement will not be assignable by a Party without the prior
written consent of all of LBI Holdings, Buyer and Seller; provided, however,
that LBI Holdings and Buyer may assign their rights and obligations hereunder
without Seller's consent to any party that is majority owned, directly or
indirectly, by LBI Holdings and LBI Holdings and Buyer may assign their rights
hereunder, without Seller's consent, to any of their lenders (provided that such
assignment to such lenders does not violate the Communications Act and does not
delay the KQQK Closing Date).

             11.3   Other Documents. The Parties will execute such other
documents as may be reasonably necessary and desirable to the implementation and
consummation of this Agreement.

             11.4   Appendices. All Schedules and Exhibits are deemed to be part
of this Agreement and incorporated herein, where applicable, as if fully set
forth herein. Whenever, by the terms of this Agreement or any subsequent

modified to reflect those changes.

             11.5   Construction. This Agreement will be governed, construed and
enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas.

             11.6   Arbitration. Any dispute, controversy or other matters as to
which the Parties disagree arising out of, relating to or in connection with the
provisions of this Agreement or the interpretation, breach or alleged breach
hereof shall be settled and decided by arbitration conducted by the Judicial
Arbitration and Mediation Service ("JAMS"), subject to the following:

             11.6.1 Any arbitration as set forth above shall be held and
             conducted in Houston, Texas before one arbitrator who shall be
             selected by mutual agreement of the parties. If agreement is not
             reached on the selection of the arbitrator within 30 days after
             commencement of an arbitration by (i) submission of a matter to the
             JAMS in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and (ii)
             notice to the other party of the initiating party's intention to
             arbitrate, then such arbitrator shall be appointed by the presiding
             judge of the appropriate Houston, Texas Court.

             11.6.2 The arbitrator appointed must be a former or retired judge,
             or an attorney with at least 15 years experience in the broadcast
             radio industry.

             11.6.3 All proceedings involving the parties shall be reported by a
             certified shorthand court reporter and written transcripts of the
             proceedings shall be prepared and made available to the parties.

             11.6.4 The prevailing party shall be awarded reasonable attorneys'
             fees, expert and non-expert witness costs and expenses, and other
             costs and expenses incurred

                                       42

<PAGE>

             in connection with the arbitration unless the arbitrator, for good
             cause, determines otherwise.

             11.6.5 The dispute shall be heard in accordance with the rules and
             procedures of JAMS and the arbitrator's decision and award shall be
             final and binding.

             11.6.6 Costs and fees of the arbitrator (including the cost of the
             record of transcripts of the arbitration) shall be borne by the
             non-prevailing party, unless the arbitrator for good cause
             determines otherwise. Costs and fees payable in advance shall be
             advanced equally by the parties, subject to ultimate payment by the
             non-prevailing party in accordance with the preceding sentence.

             11.6.7 Any Party may initiate an arbitration proceeding under this
             Section 11.6 by written notice to the other Party of his or its
             intention to arbitrate, specifying the dispute or controversy to be
             arbitrated, the amount involved and the remedy sought, and by
             filing with the Dallas, Texas office of the JAMS a copy of said
             notice together with a copy of this Agreement and the fee specified
             in the JAMS fee schedule. In no event shall a demand for
             arbitration be made after the date when institution of legal or
             equitable proceedings based on the claim, dispute or other matter
             in question would be barred by the applicable statute of
             limitations.

             11.6.8 This agreement to arbitrate shall be specifically
             enforceable under applicable law in any court of competent
             jurisdiction. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall be final
             and judgment may be entered in accordance with applicable law and
             in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

             11.6.9 Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement
             elsewhere to the contrary, and unless modified by the arbitrator
             upon a showing of good cause, the arbitration shall proceed upon
             the following schedule: (i) within 30 days from the service of the
             notice of the request to arbitrate, the parties shall select the
             arbitrator; (ii) within 30 days after selection of the arbitrator,
             the parties shall conduct a pre-arbitration conference at which a
             schedule of pre-arbitration discovery shall be set, all
             pre-arbitration motions scheduled and any other necessary
             pre-arbitration matters decided; (iii) all discovery shall be
             completed within four months following the pre-arbitration
             conference; (iv) all pre-arbitration motions shall be filed and
             briefed so that they may be heard no later than one month following
             the discovery cut-off; (v) the arbitration shall be scheduled to
             commence no later than 30 days after the decision on all
             pre-arbitration motions but in any event no later than six months
             following the service of the notice of arbitration; and (vi) the
             arbitrator shall render his written decision within 30 days
             following the submission of the matter.

             11.6.10 Any monetary award of the arbitrator may include interest
             at the highest prime rate, as published in the Wall Street Journal,
             plus two percent, which interest shall accrue from the date the
             claim, dispute or other matter in question was rightfully due and
             payable under this agreement until the date the award is paid to
             the prevailing party.

             11.6.11  No provision of this Section 11.6 shall limit the right of
             any Party to this Agreement to exercise self-help remedies or to
             obtain provisional or ancillary remedies from a court of competent
             jurisdiction before, after, or during the pendency of any
             arbitration or other proceeding. The exercise of such remedy does
             not waive the right of any party to resort to arbitration.

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

             11.8   Headings. The headings of the Sections of this Agreement are
inserted as a matter of convenience and for reference purposes only and in no
respect define, limit or describe the scope of this Agreement or the intent of
any Section.

             11.9   Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the FM Local Marketing
Agreement, the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, the AM Local Marketing Agreement,
all Schedules and Exhibits and related agreements entered into as of the date
hereof and all agreements, certificates and instruments delivered by the Parties
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the AM Asset Purchase Agreement
represent the entire understanding and agreement between the Parties with
respect to the subject matter hereof, supersede all prior negotiations and
agreements between the Parties, including the Letter of Intent (other than
Section 9 thereof as replaced by Exhibit J hereto, which survives), and can be
amended, supplemented, waived or changed only by an amendment in writing which
makes specific reference to this Agreement, the AM Asset Purchase Agreement, or
the amendment, as the case may be, and which is signed by the Party against whom
enforcement of any such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification is sought.
