executed by it in connection herewith or therewith or pursuant hereto or thereto
and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby. The
execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the other Closing
Documents to which the Investor is a party, and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, have been duly and validly
authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Investor. This Agreement
and each of the other Closing Documents to which the Investor is a party that
has been executed as of the date hereof is, and will be as of the Closing, duly
executed and delivered by the Investor and will be the legal, valid and binding
obligation of the Investor, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms,
except as the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or
other similar laws affecting the enforceability of creditors' rights in general
or by general principles of equity.

     5.3   GOVERNMENTAL CONSENTS. No consent, approval or authorization of or
designation, declaration or filing with any governmental authority on the part
of the Investor is required in connection with the valid execution, delivery and
performance by the Investor of this Agreement, including the purchase of

transaction contemplated hereby, except as may be provided in this Agreement
(including approval of the FCC).

     5.4   ADDITIONAL CONSENTS AND NOTICES. No filing, registration,
qualification, notice, consent, approval or authorization to, with or from any
Person (excluding any Governmental Person) is necessary in connection with the
execution, delivery and performance by the Investor of this Agreement or the
other Closing Documents to which it is a party, or the consummation by the
Investor of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

     5.5   PURCHASE FOR OWN ACCOUNT.

The Investor is acquiring the Shares, the Warrants and the Underlying Shares for
investment for its own account, not as a nominee or agent, and not with a view
to, or for the resale in connection with, any distribution thereof. The Investor
understands that the Shares, the Warrants and the Underlying Shares to be
purchased have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act by
reason of a specific exemption from the registration provisions of the
Securities Act, the availability of which depends upon, among other things, the
bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Investor's
representations as expressed herein.

     5.6   DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION.

The Investor has had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from
the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the offering of the Shares,
the Warrants and the Underlying

                                       30
<Page>

Shares, and to obtain additional information (to the extent the Company
possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or
expense) necessary to verify any information furnished to the Investor or to
which it had access. The foregoing, however, does not in any way limit or modify
the representations and warranties made by the Company in Section IV hereof.

     5.7   INVESTMENT EXPERIENCE.

The Investor understands that the purchase of the Shares, the Warrants and the
Underlying Shares involves substantial risk. The Investor has experience as an
investor in securities of companies in the development stage and acknowledges
that the Investor is able to fend for itself, can bear the economic risk of its
investment in the Shares, the Warrants and the Underlying Shares, and has such
knowledge and experience in financial or business matters that the Investor is
capable of evaluating the merits and risks of this investment in the Shares, the
Warrants and the Underlying Shares, and protecting its own interests in
connection with this investment.

     5.8   ACCREDITED INVESTOR STATUS.

The Investor is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Regulation D
promulgated under the Securities Act.

     5.9   RESTRICTED SECURITIES.

The Investor understands that the Shares, the Warrants and the Underlying Shares
are characterized as "restricted securities" under the Securities Act inasmuch
as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction not involving a
public offering and that under the Securities Act and applicable regulations
thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under the
Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection, the
Investor represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 of the U.S. Securities and
Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), as presently in effect, and understands the
resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. The Investor
understands that the Company is under no obligation to register any of such
securities sold hereunder except as provided in the Investor Rights Agreement.
The Investor understands that no public market now exists for any of such
securities and that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for
such securities.

     5.10  NO BROKERS OR FINDERS.

The Company has not, and will not, incur, directly or indirectly, as a result of
any action taken by the Investor, any liability for brokerage or finders' fees
or agents' commissions or any similar charges in connection with this Agreement.

                                   SECTION VI

specifically stated

                                       31
<Page>

otherwise in this Section VI, the Company (and for purposes of Section 6.13,
Section 6.15 and Section 6.16(c) hereof, the Investor), covenants and agrees
that:

     6.1   LIMITATION ON ADDITIONAL ISSUANCES OF STOCK.

     (a) From and after the date hereof, the Company shall not issue any shares
of Series H Preferred Stock or Junior Preferred Stock other than as Dividend
Shares in accordance with the Agreement of Stockholders.

     (b) From and after the date hereof through the Closing Date, except for the
other Subscription Agreements, the Company shall not enter into any agreement
for the sale of shares of Senior Preferred Stock with any Person (other than as
approved by the Investor); PROVIDED that the Company may enter into an agreement
for the sale of shares of Senior Preferred Stock with a Person who is a
stockholder of the Company IF AND ONLY IF (i) the aggregate amount of
subscriptions for the Senior Preferred Stock dated as of even date herewith is
at least $145 million but not more than $156 million, (ii) such stockholder
shall be entitled to purchase not more than its PRO RATA share of the Senior
Preferred Stock, on a fully diluted (other than with respect to warrants,
options, rights and any other securities of the Company that are exercisable for
cash in an amount exceeding the fair market value of the securities of the
Company into which they are exercisable, and in the case of such instruments
that entitle the holder thereof to a "cashless" exercise, then the number of
shares of Old Common Stock for which such instruments could be exercised, at the
fair market price of Old Common Stock on the date hereof) and as-converted basis
as of the date hereof (PROVIDED that each stockholder's PRO RATA share shall be
reduced proportionately to ensure compliance with the restriction set forth in
the immediately following clause (iii), to the extent such additional
stockholder's participation in the subscription of Senior Preferred Stock would
exceed the limitation set forth in such clause (iii)), (iii) such proposed sale
would not result in the aggregate amount of funds payable to the Company as
consideration for all the issued and outstanding shares of Senior Preferred
Stock to exceed $205 million, (iv) such additional stockholder executes and
delivers the Agreement of Stockholders and the Investor Rights Agreement, (v)
such additional stockholder executes and delivers a subscription agreement on
substantially the same terms as this Agreement (or on such other terms that are
less favorable to such additional stockholder than this Agreement is to the
Investor or otherwise as approved by the Investor), (vi) such additional
stockholder executes and delivers substantially the same closing documentation
as delivered by the Investor at the Closing, and (vii) the purchase by such
additional stockholder of shares of Senior Preferred Stock or the execution of a
subscription agreement by such stockholder in furtherance thereof shall not
cause or be reasonably expected to cause the Closing to be delayed. Notice of
the election of any such stockholder to participate in the subscription of
Senior Preferred Stock pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) must be received by the
Company not more than fifteen (15) days after the date hereof, and the closing
of the sale of Senior Preferred Stock to such stockholder must occur
simultaneously with the Closing.

     (c) From and after the date hereof through and including the Closing Date,
except for issuances of Old Common Stock pursuant to Equivalents or other
agreements entered into on or prior to the date hereof entitling the holders of
such instruments to receive shares of Old Common Stock (including but not
limited to options paid to management under the existing

                                       32
<Page>

management option plan, shares to be issued to KaStarCom pursuant to the
transaction agreements disclosed in Section 4.38 and the issuances of Old Common
Stock upon conversion of Old Preferred Stock), the Company shall not issue any
additional shares of Old Common Stock or enter into any agreement to issue
shares of Series A Common Stock (other than upon reclassification of the Old
Common Stock) or Series B Common Stock without the prior written consent of the
Required Investors, except in compliance with the terms and conditions of the
Fifth Charter.

     6.2   NRTC DISTRIBUTION AGREEMENT. From the period commencing on the date
hereof and ending on the 60th day after the Closing Date, the Company will
negotiate with NRTC in good faith with regard to terms and conditions on which
the Company would be willing (subject to consummation of the Closing), to enter
into a master distribution, marketing and branding agreement with NRTC. If such
negotiations do not result in the execution of a definitive distribution
agreement, then (i) NRTC shall be entitled to match the terms and conditions of
any distribution agreement that the Company may subsequently enter into on a
non-exclusive basis with respect to any geographic territory, and (ii) the
Company shall not enter into any distribution agreement that is exclusive in a
specified geographic territory, unless NRTC shall have previously failed to
accept the Company's offer to enter into a distribution agreement for such
territory on terms and conditions that were not, in the aggregate, more
favorable to the Company than the terms of such exclusive third party
distribution agreement.

     6.3   INTELSAT SATELLITE AND GROUND OPERATIONS AGREEMENT. From the period
commencing on the date hereof and ending on the 60th day after the Closing Date,
the Company will negotiate with Intelsat in good faith with regard to the terms
and conditions on which the Company would be willing (subject to consummation of
the Closing), to enter into one or more agreements with Intelsat regarding the
provision of services to the Company related to satellite and ground segment
operations and management of satellite construction and launch programs and
missions. In that connection, the parties acknowledge that (i) the Company is a
party to certain existing agreements with third parties with respect to some or
all of the services that Intelsat wishes to provide to the Company, (ii) nothing
in this Agreement is intended to induce the Company to breach or abrogate any
third party agreement and (iii) the Company will consider the existing terms and
conditions of all such third party agreements, including without limitation
termination provisions, penalties and buy-out clauses, in connection with the
Company's evaluation of any offer by Intelsat with respect to satellite and
ground operation services. If such negotiations do not result in execution of a
definitive agreement between the Company and Intelsat with respect to any such
services, then the Company shall not enter into any new agreement for satellite
and ground operation services, or exercise any optional renewal rights with
respect to an existing third party agreement for such services, unless Intelsat
shall have previously failed to accept the Company's offer to enter into an
agreement for such services on terms and conditions that were not, in the
aggregate, more favorable to the Company than the terms of such third party
agreement or renewal.

     6.4   OPERATION OF BUSINESS; FINANCIAL INFORMATION.

     (a) Subject to Section 6.4(d) below, the Company shall use commercially
reasonable efforts to preserve the value and utility of its properties and
assets used by it in the conduct of its

                                       33

the Audited Financial Statements except any thereof since disposed of for value
in the ordinary course of business), the goodwill of its suppliers and others
having business relations with the Company, to perform and observe all the
terms, covenants and conditions required to be performed and observed by the
Company under the Contracts and the FCC Licenses. From the period commencing on
the date hereof and ending on the Closing Date, the Company shall not agree to
materially modify the deliverables pursuant to, or waive the performance of any

Investors, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Company shall
take all actions reasonably necessary to keep the FCC Licenses in full force and
effect.

employees as are employed by the Company as of the date hereof and are necessary

soon as practicable, the closing of the KaStarCom purchase pursuant to the
KaStarCom Purchase Agreement. The Company shall not amend, restate, modify or
waive (in whole or in part) any provision of or right under the KaStarCom
Purchase Agreement or the Satellite Sharing Agreement. The Company shall
preserve all rights that it has to terminate the KaStarCom Purchase Agreement in
the event that the closing thereunder has not occurred on or prior to December
31, 2003, or if the FCC issues an order rejecting KaStarCom's application to
approve a change in control. In addition, the Company shall preserve all rights
that it has to terminate the Satellite Sharing Agreement in the event that
KaStarCom fails to pay the purchase price thereunder or any installments
thereof, when due. The Company shall promptly inform the Investor of any change
in status of each of the KaStarCom Purchase Agreement and the Satellite Sharing
Agreement, until the Closing.

     (d) The Company shall take no action, other than in the ordinary course of
business, which is not set forth in the Business Action Plan, and shall use
reasonable efforts to take all actions in the Business Action Plan which are
identified therein as actions to be taken on or before the Closing; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Company shall be obligated to expend only available funds to
take such actions, including without limitation funds available as a result of
any loan made by the Investor and Other Investors as provided in Section
7.1(a)(ii) hereof, and the Company shall use such funds only in a manner
consistent with the monthly budget set forth on SCHEDULE 7.1(a)(ii) hereto,
unless the Required Investors have given their prior written consent otherwise.

     (e) Except for (i) the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the
other Closing Documents or set forth in SCHEDULE 6.4(e) hereto, or (ii) pursuant
to the budget set forth in SCHEDULE 7.1(a)(ii) hereto, without the prior written
consent of the Required Investors (which consent shall not be unreasonably
withheld, but shall be based on all relevant circumstances, including without
limitation the financial condition of the Company), the Company will not:

           (i)     increase the compensation or benefits of, or pay any bonus
                   to, any director, officer, employee or consultant;

                   director, officer or employee;

           (iii)   establish, adopt, amend or restate any of its employee
                   benefit plans or other benefit arrangements (other than to
                   provide the same benefits as provided by the Company
                   immediately prior to such action);

           (iv)    grant any award under any bonus, incentive, stock option,
                   performance or other compensation plan or arrangement
                   (including without limitation the grant of stock options,
                   stock appreciation rights, stock-based or stock-related
                   awards, performance units or restricted stock), or remove
                   restrictions of any existing plan or other arrangement or
                   agreement, or any award made thereunder;

                   stock of the Company, or any options, warrants or conversion
                   or other rights to acquire any shares of capital stock of the
                   Company or any such securities or obligations, or any other
                   securities thereof;

           (vii)   effect any reorganization, recapitalization, merger or share
                   exchange;

           (viii)  split, combine or reclassify any of its capital stock or
                   issue or authorize or propose the issuance of any other
                   securities in respect of, in lieu of or in substitution for,
                   shares of its capital stock;

           (ix)    issue, deliver, award, grant or sell, or authorize the
                   issuance, delivery, award, grant or sale (including the grant
                   of any limitations in voting rights or other encumbrances)
                   of, any shares of any class of capital stock of the Company,
                   any Subsidiary or any other entity in which the Company has

                   issuable upon the exercise of options outstanding on the date
                   hereof in accordance with their terms as of the date hereof),
                   any securities convertible into or exercisable or
                   exchangeable for any such shares, or any rights, warrants or
                   options to acquire, any such shares, or amend or otherwise
                   modify the terms of any such rights, warrants or options the

<Page>

           (xi)    authorize, or commit or agree to do any of the foregoing.

     6.5   ECHOSTAR AGREEMENT. The Company shall use all commercially reasonable
efforts to enter into a definitive distribution and joint marketing agreement
with Echostar that is reasonably acceptable to the Investor and supersedes all
prior term sheets and agreements between the Company and Echostar regarding
distribution and joint marketing arrangements.

     6.6   TERMINATION OF CERTAIN RIGHTS AND AGREEMENTS; MODIFICATION OF EQUITY
RIGHTS. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the

forth on SCHEDULE 3.1(m)), including without limitation stock options, warrants,
other rights with respect to securities of the Company, voting agreements,
stockholders' agreements, investors' rights agreements, registration rights
agreements and similar agreements. If the Voting Agreement is not terminated
prior to the Closing, and the Required Investors determine that the Voting
Agreement requires the Company to have, after the Closing, a Board of Directors
of more than seven members, then the Company will use all reasonable efforts to
assist, and will fully cooperate with, the Investor in determining an
alternative method for the holders of Senior Preferred Stock (other than Series
6 Senior Preferred Stock) to have the same proportionate representation and
voting power on the Board of Directors as such parties would have if the
aggregate number of directors on the Board of Directors were the sum of (i) the
number of directors which the holders of Senior Preferred Stock may separately
elect pursuant to the Fifth Charter and (ii) two, and the Board of Directors
were elected as provided in the Fifth Charter and the amended and restated
bylaws to be adopted by the Company pursuant to Section 6.20 hereof.

     6.7   REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES. The Company will not, will not permit
any of its Subsidiaries to, and will use commercially reasonable efforts to
cause KaStarCom not to, take or agree to take any action on or prior to the
Closing Date that could reasonably be expected to result in any of its
representations or warranties hereunder being untrue.

     6.8   ADVICE OF CHANGES. The Company will give prompt notice to the
Investor upon becoming aware of (i) the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any
event which would be likely to cause any representation or warranty of the
Company contained in this Agreement to be untrue or inaccurate and (ii) any
failure on its part to comply with or satisfy any covenant, condition or
agreement to be complied with or satisfied by it under this Agreement on or
prior to the Closing Date. The Company will use its commercially reasonable
efforts to prevent or promptly remedy any matter which is or would be the
subject of any such notice. No notice pursuant to this Section 6.8 will affect
any representations, warranties, covenants, agreements, obligations or
conditions set forth herein.

     6.9   REASONABLE EFFORTS; FURTHER ASSURANCES. The Company will use
reasonable efforts to cause to be fulfilled the conditions of its obligations
under this Agreement and the other Closing Documents. From time to time, as and
when requested by the Investor, the Company will execute and deliver, or cause
to be executed and delivered, all such documents and instruments and will take,
or cause to be taken, all such reasonable actions, as the Investor may
reasonably

                                       36
<Page>

deem necessary or desirable to consummate the transactions contemplated by this

or fail to take any action which would reasonably be expected to frustrate the
intent and purposes of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

     6.10  COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. The Company shall obtain all
necessary Blue Sky law permits and qualifications, if any, or have the
availability of exemptions therefrom, required by any state for the offer and

securities referenced in this Section 6.10 are collectively referred to herein
as the "SECURITIES").

     6.11  EXCLUSIVITY; NOTICE OF POTENTIAL TRANSACTIONS. As long as this
Agreement shall be in full force and effect, (i) neither the Company nor any of
its officers, employees, agents, representatives or directors, shall solicit,
initiate, encourage or engage in any negotiations with any Person, relating to
the sale of any capital stock or Equivalents of the Company, the merger of the
Company or any of its Subsidiaries with, the acquisition of the Company or any
of its Subsidiaries by, or sale of any material asset (whether or not tangible)
of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to, any Person, other than the
transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Subscription Agreements and
(ii) the Company shall immediately inform the Investor of any offer, proposal or
inquiry concerning any of the foregoing of which the Company or any of its
officers, employees, agents, representatives or directors receives or has
Knowledge.

     6.12  USE OF PROCEEDS OF INTERIM FUNDING. In the event the Investor
provides interim funding to the Company pursuant to Section 7.1(a)(ii) hereof,

forth on SCHEDULE 7.1(a)(ii) and any related loan documents between the Company
and the Investor, unless the Investor has given its prior written consent
otherwise.

     6.13  HSR FILINGS. The Company and the Investor shall use reasonable
efforts to make, no later than 20 days after the execution and delivery of this
Agreement, any and all of their respective filings pursuant to the HSR Act as

Agreement and the Closing Documents.

     6.14  AGREEMENT OF STOCKHOLDERS. As long as this Agreement shall be in full
force and effect, the Company will take all actions reasonably required to
ensure that the Investor receives the benefits of the Agreement of Stockholders.
The Company and/or the Board of Directors will not (without the prior written
consent of the Required Investors) amend or restate the Agreement of
Stockholders, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the
obligations of the Company or the Board of Directors thereunder, or take any
other action which would deprive the Investor of the benefits of the Agreement
of Stockholders, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out
of all the provisions of the Agreement of Stockholders and in the taking of all
such actions as may be necessary or appropriate in order to protect the benefits
to the Investor thereunder.

     6.15  FCC APPLICATIONS. The Company, the Investor and the Other Investors

applications and filings,

                                       37

with the FCC with respect to the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement and the other Closing Documents (collectively, the "FCC APPLICATIONS")
and any other necessary or desirable instruments or documents in connection
therewith. The Company, the Investor and the Other Investors shall prosecute the
FCC Applications with all reasonable diligence and otherwise use their
reasonable efforts to obtain all necessary consents and approvals from the FCC
as expeditiously as practicable. Investor and the Company will promptly provide
each other and the Other Investors with a copy of any pleading, objection,
complaint, order or other document served on such person relating to the FCC
Applications. Investor and the Company will not, and each of them will use its
reasonable efforts not to cause or permit any of its officers, directors,

vigorously oppose such efforts for reconsideration or judicial review.

in Section 7.1(b) hereof, the Company will use all commercially reasonable
efforts to cause to be satisfied prior to June 30, 2003, each condition which,

     6.18  SUBSCRIPTION ADJUSTMENT. If at any time prior to or immediately
following the Closing, the actual capitalization of the Company is not as set
forth on SCHEDULE 4.15B, and such discrepancy adversely affects the Investor (as
determined in the reasonable judgment of the Investor), then the Company shall
adjust the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock and warrants to acquire
shares of Senior Preferred Stock issued to the Investor pursuant to this
Agreement, in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Investor, so that the
Investor receives the same benefits as if there had been no such discrepancy.

Certificate of Incorporation or other agreements of the

                                       39

reasonably acceptable to the Required Investors, which bylaws shall provide,
among other things, (i) that the total number of directors of the Company shall
be fixed by the Board of Directors, subject to the provisions of the Fifth
Charter and (ii) that if the total number of directors of the Company is more
than the sum of (A) the number of directors which the holders of Senior
Preferred Stock may separately elect pursuant to the Fifth Charter and (B) two,
then each additional director in excess of such sum must be approved by
unanimous vote of the Board of Directors.

     7.1   TERMINATION; EFFECT OF TERMINATION.

     (a) This Agreement may be terminated and the transactions contemplated by

           (i)     by the mutual written agreement of the Company and the
                   Investor;

           (ii)    by either the Company or the Investor if the Closing shall
                   not have been consummated on or prior to December 20, 2002
                   (such date, including as it may be changed pursuant to this
                   Section 7.1(a)(ii), is referred to as the "WALK AWAY DATE");
                   PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the right to terminate pursuant to
                   this Section 7.1(a)(ii) shall not be available to any party
                   whose failure to perform any of its obligations under this
                   Agreement resulted in, or has been the cause or a substantial
                   cause of, the failure of the Closing to occur prior to the
                   Walk Away Date; PROVIDED FURTHER, HOWEVER, that
                   notwithstanding the foregoing clauses of this Section
                   7.1(a)(ii), the Investor may extend the Walk Away Date to
                   January 31, 2003, for any reason, if the Investor and the
                   Other Investors who elect to extend the Walk Away Date
                   pursuant to their respective Subscription Agreements, shall
                   collectively (on a PRO RATA basis) provide $2,000,000 of
                   funding to the Company on or before December 20, 2002, on
                   substantially the terms, and pursuant to the monthly budget,
                   as set forth in SCHEDULE 7.1(a)(ii) attached hereto; PROVIDED
                   FURTHER, HOWEVER, that notwithstanding the foregoing clauses

                   the Walk Away Date up to June 30, 2003, if (A) the Investor
                   determines in its

                                       40
<Page>

                   reasonable judgment that the consent of the FCC or another
                   third party is required and cannot be obtained by January 31,
                   2003, (B) for the period from December 20, 2002 to the
                   earlier of June 30, 2003 or the Closing Date, the Investor
                   and the Other Investors who elect to extend the Walk Away
                   Date pursuant to their respective Subscription Agreements,
                   shall collectively provide funds in the aggregate amount of
                   at least $5,000,000 (inclusive of the $2,000,000 funded to
                   the Company pursuant to the immediately preceding proviso) to
                   the Company on substantially the terms, and pursuant to such
                   monthly budget, as set forth in SCHEDULE 7.1(a)(ii) attached
                   hereto, and (C) the Investor shall provide such portion of
                   the aggregate funds to be provided to the Company pursuant to
                   the immediately preceding clause (B) which is equal to the
                   result of (x) $5,000,000, multiplied by (y) a fraction, the
                   numerator of which is the Aggregate Purchase Price and the
                   denominator of which is $145,000,000;

           (iii)   by either the Company or the Investor if there shall be any
                   Law that makes consummation of the transactions contemplated
                   by this Agreement illegal or otherwise prohibited or if any
                   Governmental Entity shall have issued an order, decree or
                   ruling or taken any other action permanently restraining,
                   enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the
                   transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order,
                   decree, ruling or other action shall not be subject to appeal
                   or shall have become final and unappealable; and

           (iv)    by either of the Company or the Investor (A) if there shall
                   have been a breach of any representation, warranty, covenant
                   or agreement set forth in this Agreement on the part of
                   another party or (B) if any representation or warranty of
                   another party set forth in this Agreement shall have become
                   untrue, in any such case such that the breach of such
                   representation, warranty, covenant or agreement could
                   reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Change if
                   not remedied prior to the Closing Date.

     (b) If the Walk Away Date is extended beyond January 31, 2003 pursuant to
the third proviso in Section 7.1(a)(ii) hereof, then notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement (but without impairment of Section 6.17 hereof),
the conditions set forth in Section 3.1(n), Section 3.1(p), Section 3.1(r),
Section 3.1(s), Section 3.1(t), Section 3.1(u) and Section 3.1(v) hereof shall
not be conditions to the obligations of the Investor with respect to the
Closing.

     (c) If this Agreement is terminated by any party pursuant to Section 7.1(a)
hereof, this Agreement forthwith shall become void and there shall be no
liability or obligation hereunder on the part of the Company or the Investor or
any of their respective Affiliates, stockholders, directors, officers, agents,
employees or representatives, except to the extent such termination results from
the willful breach by either the Company or the Investor of any of its
respective representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in
this Agreement, and except to the extent contemplated by Section 7.4 hereof.

<Page>

assignees) to (i) an Affiliate of the Investor, or (ii) one or more transferees

     7.10  INDEMNIFICATION BY THE COMPANY.

     (a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Investor and its
stockholders, members, partners, officers, directors, employees and agents (each
an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") from and against (a) any and all damages, losses and
other liabilities of any kind, including, without limitation, judgments and
costs of settlement, and any and all actions, causes of action or suits
initiated against any party to this Agreement by third parties, and (b) any and
all costs and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys'
fees and disbursements) in connection therewith (collectively, the "INDEMNIFIED
LIABILITIES") incurred by the Investor and its stockholders, members, partners,
officers, directors, employees and agents as a result of, or arising out of (i)
any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding or claim brought or
threatened relating to or arising out of this Agreement and any of the other
Closing Documents, or the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; or (ii)
any breach of, or inaccuracy in, any representation, warranty or covenant
(including, without limitation, the use of proceeds, the status of the FCC
Licenses and the necessity of obtaining prior FCC approval to implement this
Agreement) of the Company made or incorporated by reference in any of the
Closing Documents, or any breach by the Company of any covenant or agreement
made in any of the Closing Documents; if and to the extent such agreement to
indemnify may be unenforceable for any reason, the Company shall make the
maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified
Liabilities which shall be permissible under applicable law.

     (b) If a claim by a third party is made against an Indemnified Party and if
such Indemnified Party intends to seek indemnity with respect thereto under this
Agreement, the Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the Company in writing
setting forth such claims in reasonable detail. The Company shall have twenty
(20) days after receipt of such notice to undertake, through counsel of its own
choosing and at is own expense, the settlement or defense thereof, and the
Indemnified Party shall cooperate with it in connection therewith; PROVIDED,
HOWEVER, that the Indemnified Party may participate in such settlement or
defense through counsel chosen by such Indemnified Party, PROVIDED that the fees
and expenses of such counsel shall be borne by such Indemnified Party unless the
Indemnified Party shall have reasonably determined that representation by the
same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing
interests between them and, in that event, the fees and expenses of such counsel
shall be paid by the Company and the Company shall not assume the defense of
such action or proceeding on the Indemnified Party's behalf. If the Company
assumes such defense, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to participate
in the defense thereof and to employ counsel, at its own expense, separate from
the counsel employed by the Company, it being understood that the Company shall
control such defense. In the event that the Company assumes such defense, the
Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Company in such defense and make
available, at the Company's' expense, all pertinent records, materials and
information in its possession or under its control relating thereto as is
reasonably required by the Company, subject to attorney-client privilege. The
Indemnified

                                       44
<Page>

Party shall not pay or settle any claim which the Company is contesting without
the prior written consent of the Company, which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld. Without the prior written consent of the Company, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Company shall not settle any
claim with respect to the Indemnified Party unless such settlement contains an
unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from any and all liability with
respect to such third party claim. If the Company does not notify the
Indemnified Party within twenty (20) days after the receipt of such Indemnified
Party's notice of a claim of indemnity hereunder that it elects to undertake the
defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to contest, settle
or compromise the claim but shall not thereby waive any right to indemnity
therefor pursuant to this Agreement.

     (c) The Indemnified Party can elect that the amounts or any portion thereof
due it under this Section 7.10 shall be paid in the form of cash and/or
additional shares of the same Series of Senior Preferred Stock held by such
party, such amount of shares to be determined by dividing (x) the difference
between the amounts owed hereunder to the Investor less the amounts to be paid
in cash by (y) the lesser of (i) the fair market value of one share of Senior
Preferred Stock on the date of payment as determined by the Board of Directors
acting in good faith or (ii) the Per Share Purchase Price; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that the consent of the Required Investors is required before any amounts owing
hereunder to the Investor may be paid in the form of cash; PROVIDED, FURTHER,
that all holders of Senior Preferred Stock subscribed to on the date hereof
electing to receive, and receiving, shares of Senior Preferred Stock (or shares
of a new series of preferred stock of the Company having comparable terms)
pursuant to this Section 7.10 and the corresponding provisions of the
Subscription Agreements relating to such holders' shares of Senior Preferred
Stock, shall receive securities each having the same designations, rights,
preferences and privileges, including but not limited to the liquidation
preference, priority, conversion price, per share purchase price and voting
rights.

     7.11  REMEDIES UPON ERRORS IN SECTION 4.15. If the Company breaches its
representation and warranties contained in Section 4.15 (including the Schedules
listed therein), the Investor may, at the election of the Required Investors, in
lieu of any other remedy specified in this Agreement, accept an adjustment in
the number of shares of its Senior Preferred Stock (or other shares of Company
stock) in order to maintain its respective equity percentage, as specified in
this Agreement and the other agreements contemplated hereby.

     7.12  SEVERABILITY. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement
will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable
law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provisions will be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or
invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the
remaining provisions of this Agreement.

     7.13  NO STRICT CONSTRUCTION. The language used in this Agreement will be
deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual

AGREES TO BE BOUND BY ANY JUDGMENT RENDERED THEREBY AND (ii) IRREVOCABLY WAIVES
ANY OBJECTION SUCH PARTY MAY NOW HAVE OR HEREAFTER HAS AS TO THE VENUE OF ANY
SUCH PROCEEDING BROUGHT IN SUCH A COURT OR THAT SUCH COURT IS AN INCONVENIENT
FORUM. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY JUDICIAL

the respective shares of capital stock of the Company listed above its signature
on the signature pages hereto, and such shares represent all of the shares of
capital stock of the Company owned of record and/or beneficially by it.

     (b)  BINDING OBLIGATIONS. This Agreement and the other agreements
contemplated hereby and thereby to which such Stockholder is a party, when
executed and delivered by such Stockholder will constitute valid legally binding
obligations of such Stockholder, enforceable against it in accordance with their
respective terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable
bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors' rights
and the enforcement of debtors' obligations generally and by general principles
of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is pursuant to a proceeding in
equity or at law.

     (c)  RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Such Stockholder understands that the Dividend
Shares and the Conversion Shares that it may be entitled to receive as result of
the transactions contemplated hereby are characterized as "restricted
securities" under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"),
inasmuch as they are being acquired from the Company in a transaction

                                        8

not involving a public offering and that under the Securities Act and applicable
regulations thereunder such securities may be resold without registration under
the Securities Act only in certain limited circumstances. In this connection,
such Stockholder represents that it is familiar with Rule 144 of the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission, as presently in effect, and understands the
resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act. Such Stockholder
understands that the Company is under no obligation to register any of such
securities sold or distributed hereunder except as provided in the New Investor
Rights Agreement to be entered into on the Closing Date, substantially in the
form of EXHIBIT C attached hereto (the "NEW INVESTOR RIGHTS AGREEMENT"). Such
Stockholder understands that no public market now exists for any of such
securities and that it is uncertain whether a public market will ever exist for
such securities.

     (d)  NO CONFLICTS. The execution, delivery and performance of and
compliance with this Agreement and the other Closing Documents to which such
Stockholder is a party, and the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby and thereby, will not result in any violation or default, or be in
conflict with or constitute, with or without the passage of time or the giving
of notice or both, a breach of any agreement, as then in effect; (i) to which
such Stockholder is a party or by which it is bound, (ii) by which any of such
Stockholder's shares of capital stock of the Company are bound or otherwise
restricted or (iii) which results in the creation of any Lien or grants any
third party any right to or interest in any of the Stockholder's shares of
capital stock of the Company.

creditors' rights in general or by general principles of equity. The execution,
