                            TIME BROKERAGE AGREEMENT

         Time Brokerage Agreement ("Agreement") dated as of June 15, 2000, by
and among REPCOM, INC., a Minnesota corporation, and SARTELL FM, INC., a
Minnesota corporation (collectively "Licensees") and REGENT BROADCASTING OF ST.
CLOUD, INC., a Delaware corporation ("Broker").

         WHEREAS, Licensees are the licensees of radio stations KLZZ-FM and
KXSS-AM, Waite Park, Minnesota, and KKSR-FM, Sartell, Minnesota (referred to
herein as the "Stations"); and

         WHEREAS, Licensees and Licensees' sole stockholder and Broker's sole
shareholder have entered into an Agreement of Merger, dated June 15, 2000 (the
"Merger Agreement") contemplating the acquisition by Broker of the Stations as a
result of the merger of Licensees' sole stockholder into Broker's sole
stockholder, Regent Broadcasting, Inc.; and

         WHEREAS, Licensees, while maintaining control over the Stations'
finances, personnel matters and programming desire to accept and broadcast
programming supplied by Broker on the Stations subject to the terms and
conditions set forth herein.

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

         1. Air Time and Transmission Services. Licensees agree, beginning July
1, 2000 (the "Commencement Date"), to make the Stations' studio and broadcast
facilities available to Broker, and to broadcast, or cause to be broadcast, on
the Stations, according to the terms hereof, programming designated and provided
by Broker (the "Programming").

         2. Payments. Broker hereby agrees to pay Licensees the amounts
specified in Attachment A for the right, from and after the Commencement Date,
to broadcast the Programming on the terms and conditions herein provided.
Payments of the Monthly Fee (as defined in Attachment A), are due and payable in
full on the first day of each calendar month for which such payment is intended
to be applied and shall be prorated for any partial calendar month at the
beginning or end of the term hereof. The failure of Licensees to demand or
insist upon prompt payment in accordance herewith shall not constitute a waiver
of its right to do so. Broker shall receive a payment credit for any Programming
not broadcast by the Stations (a "Credit"), such Credit to be determined by
multiplying the monthly payment by the ratio of the amount of time preempted or
not accepted to the total number of hours of Programming each month. No credit
shall be due on account of any Programming rejected for failure to comply with
the standards for Programming set forth in this Agreement.

         3. Term. The term of this Agreement shall begin on the Commencement
Date and end on the earliest of (i) the Closing Date, as defined in the Merger
Agreement, or (ii) the date which is

<PAGE>   2

ten (10) days following any termination of the Merger Agreement, in accordance
with the terms thereof (such date hereinafter referred to as the "Termination
Date," and such period of time as the "Term").

         4. Programming. Broker shall furnish or cause to be furnished the
Programming, which shall be an entertainment format of Broker's choice, provided
that no format change shall be made without the delivery to Security Title and
Guaranty Agency, Inc., as Escrow Agent, of a $100,000 letter of credit which the
Escrow Agent shall hold under the terms of a Deposit Escrow Agreement of even
date among StarCom, Inc., Regent Broadcasting, Inc., and Escrow Agent, and which
StarCom, Inc. shall be entitled to draw upon to the extent of any costs which
Licensees may incur as a result of undoing any such format change in the event
this Agreement is terminated other than by reason of a default by Licensees, and
may include, without limitation, news, promotions (including on-air giveaways),
contests, syndicated programs, barter programs, paid-for programs,
locally-produced programs, advertising commercial matter, including that in both
program or spot announcement forms, and public service information; provided,
however, that the Programming on the Stations shall include news, public service
announcements and other programming on issues of importance to the local
community as reasonably requested by Licensees. The Programming shall be
consistent with the standards set forth in Attachment B. All actions or
activities of Broker under this Agreement, and all Programming provided by
Broker shall be in accordance with (i) the Communications Act of 1934, as
amended; (ii) Federal Communications Commission (the "FCC") rules, requirements
and policies, including, without limitation, the FCC's rules on plugola/payola,
lotteries, Station identification, minimum operating schedule, sponsorship
identification, political programming and political advertising rates; (iii) all
applicable federal, state and local regulations and policies; and (iv) generally
accepted quality standards consistent with Licensees' past practices. Broker
agrees that, if in the sole, good faith judgment of the Licensees or the
Stations' General Manager, Broker does not comply with the standards of this
paragraph, Licensees may suspend or cancel any Programming not in compliance.
Broker shall not be entitled to a Credit for Programming not broadcast over the
Stations on account of any Programming rejected for failure to comply with the
standards for Programming set forth in this Section 4. The right to use the
Programming and to authorize its use in any manner and in any media whatsoever
shall be, and remain, vested solely in Broker, subject in all events to the
rights, if any, of others in such Programming.

         5. Special Events. Licensees reserve the right in their discretion, and
without liability, to preempt, delay or delete any of the broadcasts of the
Programming and to substitute programming which in Licensees' judgment is of
greater local, regional or national importance. In all such cases, Licensees
shall use their best efforts to give Broker reasonable notice of their intention
to preempt such Programming, and, in the event of such preemption, Broker shall
receive a payment credit for the Programming so omitted consistent with the
intent and pursuant to the terms of Section 2 hereof.

         6. Advertising and Programming Revenues. Broker shall retain all
advertising and other revenues, and all accounts receivable, with respect to
Programming broadcast during the Term, and relating to the Programming it
delivers to the Stations for broadcast during the Term, including without
limitation, promotion-related revenues. Licensees and Broker each shall have the
right, at their own expense, to seek copyright royalty payments for their own
programming. Broker may sell

<PAGE>   3

advertising on the Stations in combination with the sale of advertising on other
broadcasting stations of its choosing, subject to compliance with applicable
law.

         7. Station Facilities. Subject to the qualifications set forth in this
Agreement, throughout the term of this Agreement, Licensees shall make the
facilities and equipment of the Stations in good operating condition and repair
available to Broker for operation and broadcast with the maximum authorized
facilities twenty-four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, except for
downtime occasioned by either (i) emergency maintenance or (ii) routine
maintenance not to exceed two (2) hours each Sunday morning between the hours of
12 midnight and 5:00 a.m., and except for such programs and announcements
prepared by and put on the air by Licensees in order to meet local needs and
issues requirements, said programs and announcements not to exceed one (1) hour
each Sunday morning at a mutually agreed upon time between the hours of 5:00
a.m. and 7:00 a.m. Broker shall not be entitled to a Credit for Programming not
broadcast over the Stations for periods specified in this Section 7 hereof. To
the extent practicable, any maintenance work affecting the operation of the
Stations at full power shall be scheduled upon at least forty-eight (48) hours
prior notice with the agreement of Broker, such agreement not to be unreasonably
withheld.

         8. Right of Access. Broker and Broker's employees or agents shall at
all times be afforded reasonable access to the Stations in order to perform
their duties in connection with the production and transmission of the
Programming over the facilities of the Stations. Broker shall have the right to
relocate to Broker's premises or to install at Licensees' and/or Broker's
premises, and to maintain throughout the term of this Agreement, at Broker's
expense, any microwave studio/transmitter relay equipment, telephone lines,
transmitter remote control, monitoring devices or any other equipment necessary
for the proper transmission of the Programming on the Stations, and Licensees
and Broker shall take all steps reasonably necessary to prepare and file any
applications with the FCC to effectuate such proper transmission. If this
Agreement is terminated other than for reason of a default by Licensees and the
parties do not close the Merger Agreement, Broker shall reimburse Licensees for
the cost of putting all such changes back to the condition they were in on the
date of this Agreement and for the amount, if any, by which the Stations' Barter
Payable exceeds by more than $25,000 the aggregate net value of the Stations'
Barter Receivable, as of the Termination Date.

         9. Force Majeure. Any failure or impairment of facilities or any delay
or interruption in broadcasting the Programming, or failure at any time to
furnish facilities, in whole or in part, for broadcasting, due to acts of God,
strikes, or threats thereof, force majeure, or due to causes beyond the control
of Licensees, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement, and Licensees
shall not be liable to Broker for any damages or adjustments for such failure,
impairment, delay or interruption, except to the extent of allowing in each such
case an appropriate payment credit for Programming available to Licensees but
not carried consistent with the intent and pursuant to the terms of Section 2
hereof.

         10. Licensees Control of Stations. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, Licensees shall have full authority, control and
power over the operation of the Stations during the period of this Agreement.
Licensees shall retain control, said control to be reasonably exercised, over
the policies, programming and operations of the Stations, including, without
limitation, the right to decide whether to accept or reject any Programming or
advertisements, the

<PAGE>   4

right to preempt any Programming in order to broadcast a program deemed by
Licensees to be of greater national, regional, or local interest, and the right
to take any other actions necessary for compliance with the laws of the United
States; the laws of the relevant states; the rules, regulations, and policies of
the FCC (including without limitation the prohibition on unauthorized transfers
of control); and the rules, regulations and policies of other federal
governmental authorities, including without limitation the Federal Trade
Commission and the Department of Justice. Licensees shall be responsible for
ensuring that FCC requirements are met with respect to ascertainment of the
problems, needs and interests of the community, public service programming, main
studio staffing, maintenance of public inspection files and the preparation of
quarterly issues/programs lists. Broker shall, upon request by Licensees,
provide Licensees with information with respect to such of Broker's programs
which are responsive to the problems, needs and interests of the community, so
as to assist Licensees in the preparation of required quarterly issues/programs
lists, and shall provide upon request other information to enable Licensees to
prepare other records, reports and logs required by the FCC or other local,
state or federal governmental agencies. Whenever on the Stations' premises, all
Broker personnel shall be subject to the supervision and the direction of
Licensees' designated personnel.

         11. Responsibility for Employees and Expenses. Licensees shall employ
two full time employees at the main studio(s) of the Stations, one of whom shall
be a manager, both of whom shall report to and be accountable to Licensees, and
who shall be ultimately responsible for the day-to-day operation of the
Stations. Licensees shall be directly responsible for paying the salaries,
taxes, insurance and related costs for such employees (the "Licensees Employee
Expenses"). Licensees shall be responsible for paying directly (i) transmitter
site rent/mortgage for the Stations; (ii) costs for maintenance and repair of
the transmission and other technical equipment; (iii) costs for capital
improvements and replacements; and (iv) transmitter site utilities for the
Stations ("Licensees Transmitter Expenses"). Licensees shall be responsible for
paying directly all income taxes relating to Licensees' earnings from this
arrangement. Broker shall employ and be responsible for the salaries, taxes,
insurance and related costs for all personnel used in the production of the
Programming (including, without limitation, salespeople, traffic personnel,
administrative and programming staff). Excluding those expenses for which
Licensees are making payments as set forth in this Section 11, during the Term,
Broker shall be responsible for paying all other expenses reasonably and
directly related to the continued operation of the Stations subject to the
covenants of the parties to this Agreement (the "Other Expenses"), and further
subject to the ultimate authority, control and power of Licensees.

                  11.1 Employee Matters.

                           11.1.1 Licensees shall be responsible for the payment
of all compensation and accrued employee benefits payable to all of Licensees'
employees through the Commencement Date.

                           11.1.2 Licensees acknowledge and agree that
Licensees, and not Broker, are and shall be solely responsible for any and all
insurance, supplemental pension, deferred compensation, retirement and any other
benefits, and related costs, premiums and claims due, to become due, committed
or otherwise promised to any person who, up to the Commencement Date is a
retiree, former employee, or current employee of Licensees, relating to the
period up to the

<PAGE>   5

Commencement Date. Broker shall assume no employee benefit plans, programs or
practices, whether or not set forth in writing, maintained by Licensees at any
time.

         12. Station Agreements.

                  12.1. Assignment and Assumption of Station Agreements. On the
Commencement Date, Licensees shall assign to Broker and Broker shall assume,
subject to the provisions of this Section 12, the obligations of Licensees
arising or to be performed on and after the Commencement Date (except to the
extent such obligations represent liabilities for activities, events or
transactions occurring, or conditions existing, on or prior to the Commencement
Date) under (a) all of the contracts which comprise Station Assets (as defined
in the Merger Agreement), excluding (i) contracts and agreements relating to the
Licensees Employee Expenses, (ii) contracts and agreements relating to the
Licensees Transmitter Expenses, (iii) Licensees' financing agreements and (iv)
corporate level contracts and agreements, except, if any, those listed on
Attachment C (collectively, the contracts and agreements to be assigned by
Licensees and assumed by Broker are referred to as the "Station Agreements") and
(b) all sales commissions payable to Licensees' sales and other personnel under
advertising contracts assigned to or administered by Broker. Licensees have
delivered to Buyer true and complete copies of all Station Agreements, including
any and all amendments and other modifications thereto. All of the Station
Agreements are in full force and effect and are valid, binding and enforceable
in accordance with their respective terms, except as limited by laws affecting
creditors' rights or equitable principles generally. Licensees have complied in
all respects with all Station Agreements and are not in default beyond any
applicable grace periods, and, to the best of Licensees' knowledge, no other
contracting party is in default under any of the terms thereof. Licensees
represent and warrant that the Station Agreements are freely assignable, or, if
consent of the other contracting party to the assignment is required, Licensees
to use their reasonable best efforts to obtain such consent as promptly as
practicable. As of the Commencement Date, Licensees shall have paid all amounts
due on and shall have performed all obligations due under the Station Agreements
as of that date.

                  12.2 Consents to Assignment. To the extent that any Station
Agreement is not capable of being assigned, transferred, delivered or subleased
without the waiver or consent of any third person (including a government or
governmental unit), or if such assignment, transfer, delivery or sublease or
attempted assignment, transfer, delivery or sublease would constitute a breach
thereof or a violation of any law or regulation, this Agreement and any
assignment executed pursuant thereto shall not constitute an assignment,
transfer, delivery or sublease or an attempted assignment, transfer, delivery or
sublease thereof. In those cases where consents, assignments, releases and/or
waivers have not been obtained at or prior to the Commencement Date to the
transfer and assignment to Broker of any Station Agreement, this Agreement and
any assignment executed pursuant hereto, to the extent permitted by law, shall
constitute an equitable assignment by Licensees to Broker of all of Licensees'
rights, benefits, title and interest in and to the Station Agreements, and where
necessary or appropriate, Broker shall be deemed to be Licensees' agent for the
purpose of completion, fulfilling and discharging all of Licensees' rights and
liabilities arising after the Commencement Date under such Station Agreements.
Licensees shall use their reasonable best efforts to provide Broker with the
financial and business benefits of such Station Agreements (including, without
limitation, permitting Broker to enforce any rights of Licensees arising under
such Station Agreements), and Broker shall, to the extent Broker is provided
with the benefits of such Station Agreements, assume,

<PAGE>   6

perform and in due course pay and discharge all debts, obligations and
liabilities of Licensees under such Station Agreements to the extent that Broker
was to assume those obligations pursuant to the terms hereof.

                  12.3 Retained Liabilities. Except as set forth in Sections 11
and 12 hereof, Broker expressly does not, and shall not, assume or agree to pay,
satisfy, discharge or perform and will not be deemed by virtue of the execution
and delivery of this Agreement or any agreement, instrument or document
delivered pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or otherwise by
reason of or in connection with the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby or thereby, to have assumed or to have agreed to pay,
satisfy, discharge or perform, any liabilities, obligations or commitments of
Licensees of any nature whatsoever whether accrued, absolute, contingent or
otherwise and whether or not disclosed by Broker. Licensees will retain and pay,
satisfy, discharge and perform in accordance with the terms thereof, all
liabilities and obligations of the Licensees (other than those occurring on or
after the Commencement Date under the Station Agreements), including but not
limited to, the obligation to assume, perform, satisfy or pay any liability,
obligation, agreement, debt, charge, claim, judgment or expense incurred by or
asserted against Licensees related to taxes, environmental matters, pension or
retirement plans or trusts, profit-sharing plans, employment contracts, employee
benefits, severance of employees, product liability or warranty, negligence,
contract breach or default, copyright, trademarks, service mark, trade name and
other intellectual property, or other obligations, claims or judgments asserted
against Broker as successor in interest to Licensees. All such liabilities,
obligations and commitments of Licensees described in this Section 12.3 shall be
referred to herein collectively as the "Retained Liabilities."

         13. Accounts Receivable. It is agreed that all accounts receivable
existing as of the date of this Agreement arising prior to the Commencement Date
in connection with the operation of the Stations, including but not limited to
accounts receivable for advertising revenues for programs and announcements
performed prior to the Commencement Date and other broadcast revenues for
services performed prior to the Commencement Date, shall remain the property of
Licensees. Licensees and their agents shall take no action during the ninety
(90) days following the Commencement Date to collect the balances of such
accounts receivable other than the normal billing invoice reminder notices. Any
amounts relating to such accounts receivable that are paid directly to Broker
shall be remitted on a monthly basis by Broker to Licensees. On the Closing Date
(as defined in the Merger Agreement), Broker may, at its option, purchase from
Licensees all or any part of the accounts receivable outstanding as of the
Closing Date at their face value. Any accounts receivable not purchased by
Broker shall be conveyed by Licensees to an unrelated party or parties at the
Closing.

         14. Proration of Income and Expenses: Trade Agreements Adjustment.

                  14.1 Except as otherwise provided herein, all deposits,
reserves and prepaid and deferred income and expenses relating to the Station
Agreements shall be prorated between Broker and Licensees in accordance with
general accepted accounting principles as of 11:59 p.m., local time, on the date
immediately preceding the Commencement Date.

                  14.2 Licensees have delivered to Broker a list of all Trade
Agreements as of the Commencement Date included in the Station Agreements and
the aggregate value of time owed

<PAGE>   7

("Barter Payable") pursuant to each of the Trade Agreements and the aggregate
value of goods and services to be received ("Barter Receivable") pursuant to
each of the Trade Agreements, in each case as of the date specified. On the
Commencement Date, Licensees shall deliver to Broker a report, dated as of the
Commencement Date (the "Commencement Date Trade Report"), which report lists all
Trade Agreements included in the Station Agreements and the contract end date
for each Trade Agreement together with a true and correct itemized statement of
the aggregate value of the Barter Payable and Barter Receivable pursuant to each
of the Trade Agreements. To the extent that the aggregate net value as reflected
on the Commencement Date Trade Report of the Stations' Barter Payable exceeds by
more than $25,000 the aggregate net value as reflected on the Commencement Date
Trade Report of the Barter Receivable, Broker shall be entitled to receive the
excess as a credit against the next due Monthly Fee(s).

                  14.3 Except as otherwise provided herein, the prorations and
adjustments contemplated by this Section 14, to the extent practicable, shall be
made on the Commencement Date. As to those prorations and adjustments not
capable of being ascertained on the Commencement Date, an adjustment and
proration shall be made within ninety (90) calendar days after the Commencement
Date.

                  14.4 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 in Section 14.3 hereof 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 Licensees and
one-half by Broker.

         15. Indemnification.

                  15.1 Indemnification. Broker shall indemnify and hold
Licensees and their sole stockholder, directors, officers, agents, employees,
successors, and assigns harmless from and against any and all claims, expenses,
causes of action and liability resulting from or relating to (i) the broadcast
of Programming during the Term, (ii) any and all promotions, contests and on-air
"giveaways" by Broker relating to the Stations during the Term, (iii) a breach
of Broker's representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained
herein, (iv) any liability resulting from Broker's default under the Station
Agreements, and (v) all other matters arising out of or related to Broker's
activities involving the Station or use of the Stations' facilities or relating
to the obligations assumed by Broker in connection with this Agreement including
but not limited to any damage caused to the Stations' equipment by Broker, its
employees, or agents. Licensees agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless
Broker and its sole stockholder, directors, officers, agents, employees,
successors and assigns from and against any and all liability that arises out of
(i) material broadcast by Licensees other than the Programming, (ii) liabilities
(but not loss of advertising revenue) that arise as a result of Licensees'
alteration of any and/or all Programming prior to broadcast by Licensees; and
(iii) the Retained Liabilities.

                  15.2 Procedures: Third Party and Direct Indemnification
Claims. The indemnified party agrees to give written notice within a reasonable
time to the indemnifying party of any demand, suit, claim or assertion of
liability by third parties or other circumstances that could give rise to an
indemnification obligation hereunder against the indemnifying party (hereinafter
collectively

<PAGE>   8

"Claims," and individually a "Claim"), it being understood that the failure to
give such notice shall not affect the indemnified party's right to
indemnification and the indemnifying party's obligation to indemnify as set
forth in this Agreement, unless the indemnifying party's ability to contest,
defend or settle with respect to such Claim is thereby demonstrably and
materially prejudiced.

         The obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto with respect to
their respective indemnities pursuant to Section 15.1 resulting from any Claim
shall be subject to the following additional terms and conditions:

                           15.2.1 The indemnifying party shall have the right to
undertake, by counsel or other representatives of its own choosing, the defense
or opposition to such Claim.

                           15.2.2 In the event that the indemnifying party shall
elect not to undertake such defense or opposition, or within ten days after
notice of any such Claim from the indemnified party shall fail to defend or
oppose, the indemnified party (upon further written notice to the indemnifying
party) shall have the right to undertake the defense, opposition, compromise or
settlement of such Claim, by counsel or other representatives of its own
choosing, on behalf of and for the account and risk of the indemnifying party
(subject to the right of the indemnifying party to assume defense of or
opposition to such Claim at any time prior to settlement, compromise or final
determination thereof).

                           15.2.3 Anything in this Section 15.2 to the contrary
notwithstanding: (a) the indemnified party shall have the right, at its own cost
and expense, to participate in the defense, opposition, compromise or settlement
of the Claim; (b) the indemnifying party shall not, without the indemnified
party's written consent, settle or compromise any Claim or consent to entry of
any judgment which does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving
by the claimant or the plaintiff to the indemnified party of a release from all
liability in respect of such Claim; and (c) in the event that the indemnifying
party undertakes defense of or opposition to any Claim, the indemnified party,
by counsel or other representative of its own choosing and at its sole cost and
expense, shall have the right to consult with the indemnifying party and its
counsel or other representatives concerning such Claim and the indemnifying
party and the indemnified party and their respective counsel or other
representatives shall cooperate in good faith with respect to such Claim.

                           15.2.4 No undertaking of defense or opposition to a
Claim shall be construed as an acknowledgment by such party that it is liable to
the party claiming indemnification with respect to the Claim at issue or other
similar Claims.

         16. Events of Default: Cure Periods and Remedies.

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

                           16.1.1 Non-Payment. Broker's failure to timely pay
the consideration provided for in Section 2 and Attachment A hereof which is not
cured within five (5) business days following notice in accordance with Section
16.2 hereof;

<PAGE>   9

                           16.1.2 Default in Covenants or Adverse Legal Action.
The default by any party hereto in the material observance or performance of any
material covenant, condition or agreement contained herein which is not cured
within five (5) business days following notice in accordance with Section 16.2
hereof, or if (a) any party shall make a general assignment for the benefit of
creditors, (b) any party shall file or have filed against it a petition for
bankruptcy, for reorganization or an arrangement, or for the appointment of a
receiver, trustee or similar creditors' representative for the property or
assets of such party under any federal or state insolvency law, which, if filed
against such party, has not been dismissed or discharged within sixty (60) days
thereof, or (c) specifically and without limitation, if Licensees' successors
and assigns, including, without limitation, any assignee of the FCC license for
the Stations, except if such successor or assign is Broker or an affiliate of
Broker, refuse to abide by or terminate this Agreement during the term of this
Agreement.

                           16.1.3 Breach of Representation. If any material
representation or warranty herein made by either party hereto, or in any
certificate or document furnished by either party to the other pursuant to the
provisions hereof, shall prove to have been false in any material respect as of
the time made or furnished and is not cured within thirty (30) days following
notice in accordance with Section 16.2 hereof.

                           16.1.4 Breach of Merger Agreement. The breach by any
party or their affiliates in the observance or performance of any
representation, warranty, covenant, condition or agreement in the Merger
Agreement which is not cured within any time period provided for such cure under
the Merger Agreement and which breach gives rise to a right to a party to
terminate the Merger Agreement, provided that no party may use its or its
affiliate's own breach under the Merger Agreement as grounds to terminate this
Agreement.

                  16.2 Cure Periods. An Event of Default shall not be deemed to
have occurred until after the nondefaulting party has provided the defaulting
party with written notice specifying the event or events that if not cured would
constitute an Event of Default and specifying the actions necessary to cure
within the relevant cure period. The Event of Default shall not be deemed to
have occurred if actions necessary to cure are completed during the relevant
cure period.

                  16.3 Termination Upon Default. Upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default, the non-defaulting party may terminate this Agreement provided that
it is not also in material default hereunder, and may seek such remedies at law
and/or equity as are available, including without limitation specific
performance. If Broker has defaulted in the performance of its obligations,
Licensees shall be under no further obligation to make available to Broker any
further broadcast time or broadcast transmission facilities and, without
limitation of remedies, all amounts accrued or payable to Licensees up to the
date of termination which have not been paid, less any payment credits, shall
immediately become due and payable.

                  16.4 Liabilities Upon Termination. Upon termination of this
Agreement, Broker shall be responsible for all liabilities, debts and
obligations of Broker accrued from the purchase of air time and transmission
services including, without limitation, accounts payable, barter agreements and
unaired advertisements, but not for Licensees' federal, state, and local tax
liabilities associated with Broker's payments to Licensees as provided for
herein. With respect to Broker's obligations to

<PAGE>   10

broadcast material over the Stations after termination hereunder, Broker may
propose compensation to Licensees for meeting these obligations, but Licensees
shall be under no duty to accept such compensation or to perform such
obligations. Upon termination, Broker shall return to Licensees any equipment or
property of the Stations used by Broker, its employees or agents, in
substantially the same condition and location as such equipment existed on the
date of this Agreement, ordinary wear and tear excepted, and Broker shall assign
to Licensees the still outstanding Station Agreements that were assigned to
Broker pursuant to Section 12 hereof and any new contracts entered into by
Broker relating to the Stations that Licensees expressly agree to assume.
Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the contrary, termination shall not
extinguish any rights of either party as may be provided by Section 15 hereof.

         17. Broker Termination Option. Broker may elect to terminate this
Agreement at any time during the term hereof in the event that Licensees preempt
or substitute other programming for that supplied by the Broker during ten
percent (10%) or more of the total hours of operation of the Stations during any
calendar month. In the event Broker elects to terminate this Agreement pursuant
to this provision, it shall give Licensees notice of such election at least ten
(10) days prior to the termination date. Upon termination, no party shall have
any further liability to any other except as may be provided by Sections 15 and
16.4 hereof.

         18. Responsive Programming. Broker and Licensees mutually acknowledge
their interest in ensuring that the Stations serve the needs and interests of
the residents of the Stations' community of license and service areas and agree
to cooperate in doing so. Licensees shall, on a regular basis, assess the issues
of concern to residents of the Stations' community of license and service areas
and address those issues in its public service programming. Licensees shall
describe those issues and responsive programming and place issues/programs lists
in the Stations' public inspection file as required by FCC rules. The
Programming shall include material that is responsive to the issues identified
by Licensees. Licensees may request, and Broker shall provide, information
concerning such of Broker's Programming that is responsive to community issues
so as to assist Licensees in the satisfaction of its public service programming
obligations. Broker shall also provide to Licensees upon request such other
information necessary to enable Licensees to prepare records and reports
required by the FCC or other local, state or federal government entities.

         19. Time Brokerage Challenge. If this Agreement is challenged in whole
or in part at or by a governmental authority or is challenged in whole or in
part in a judicial forum, counsel for the Licensees and counsel for the Broker
shall jointly defend this Agreement and the parties' performance thereunder
throughout all such proceedings. If this Agreement is declared invalid or
illegal in whole or in substantial part by a ruling, order or decree of a
governmental authority or court, and such ruling, order or decree has become
effective, then the parties shall endeavor in good faith to reform the Agreement
as necessary. If the parties are unable to reform this Agreement within thirty
(30) days of the effective date of such ruling, order or decree, then this
Agreement shall terminate, and all sums owing to Licensees shall be paid and no
party shall have any further liability to any other except as may be provided by
Section 15 hereof.

bound.

                  20.2. Additional Licensees Representations, Warranties and
Covenants. Licensees make the following further representations, warranties and
covenants:

                           20.2.1 Authorizations. During the term of this

fashion all of their debts, assessments and obligations, including without
limitation tax liabilities and payments in each case attributable to the
operations of the Stations, as they come due during the Term of this Agreement.

the Stations' facilities, including specifically control over the Stations'
finances, personnel and programming, and nothing herein shall be interpreted as
depriving Licensees of the power or right of such ultimate control.

                           20.2.5 Insurance. Licensees shall maintain in full
force and effect (at Licensees' expense) throughout the term of this Agreement

Agreement. Licensees shall present to Broker prior to the execution of this
Agreement certificates of insurance or binders for such insurance policies. If
requested by Broker, Licensees shall maintain, at Broker's expense, business
interruption insurance for Broker's benefit. If Licensees do not carry such
insurance, Broker shall reimburse Licensees for the costs of obtaining such
insurance.

                           20.2.6 Compliance with Law. Licensees covenant that,

advise Licensees of any public or FCC complaint or inquiry that Broker receives
concerning the Programming on the Stations and shall cooperate with Licensees
and take all actions as may be reasonably requested by Licensees in responding
to any such complaint or inquiry.

                           20.3.4 Copyright and Licensing. Broker represents and

to by Licensees and Broker.

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

<PAGE>   14

Broker may assign its rights and delegate its obligations to one or more
subsidiary or affiliated corporations of Broker, in which event Broker shall be
released and discharged of all obligation hereunder and all reference herein to
Broker shall mean such subsidiary or affiliate; (ii) in the event that Broker
finds it necessary or is required to provide to a third party a collateral
assignment of Broker's interest in this Agreement or any related documents,
Licensees will cooperate with Broker and any third party requesting such
assignment including but not limited to signing a consent and acknowledgment of
such assignment; provided, however, that except as otherwise provided herein
Broker shall remain fully liable as to all of its obligations and agreements
whether or not delegated or assigned.

         28. Notices. All notices, demands, requests, or other communications
which may be or are required to be given or made by any party to any other party
