Agreement, and during the term of this Agreement, each Lender agrees (severally,
not jointly or jointly and severally) to make advances ("Advances") to Borrower
in an amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed such Lender's Pro Rata
Share of an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Maximum Revolver Amount less
the Letter of Credit Usage, less the Intermediate Notes Reserve, or (ii) the
Borrowing Base less the Letter of Credit Usage. For purposes of this Agreement,
"Borrowing Base," as of any date of determination, shall mean the result of:

                                    (y)      the 35% times the Applicable
                  Eligible Value, minus

                                    (z)      the Intermediate Notes Reserve,
                  plus the Positive EBITDA Reserve, plus the Insurance Proceeds
                  Reserve, plus the aggregate amount of reserves, if any,
                  established by Agent under Section 2.1(b).

                           (b)      Anything to the contrary in this Section 2.1
notwithstanding, Agent shall have the right to establish reserves in such
amounts, and with respect to such matters, as Agent in its Permitted Discretion
shall deem necessary or appropriate, against the Borrowing Base, including
reserves with respect to (i) sums that Borrower is required to pay

                                      -37-

(such as taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased
assets, rents or other amounts payable under such leases) and has failed to pay
under any Section of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (ii) amounts
owing by Borrower to any Person to the extent secured by a Lien on, or trust
over, any of the Collateral (other than any existing Permitted Lien set forth on
Schedule P-2), which Lien or trust, in the Permitted Discretion of Agent likely
would have a priority superior to the Agent's Liens (such as Liens or trusts in
favor of landlords, warehousemen, carriers, mechanics, materialmen, laborers, or
suppliers, or Liens or trusts for ad valorem, excise, sales, or other taxes
where given priority under applicable law) in and to such item of the
Collateral; provided, however, that in establishing reserves in its Permitted
Discretion, Agent shall take into account the amount of cash and Cash
Equivalents then held by the Obligors that are subject to Control Agreements in
favor of Agent.

                           (c)      The Lenders shall have no obligation to make
additional Advances hereunder to the extent such additional Advances would cause
the Revolver Usage to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount.

                           (d)      Amounts borrowed pursuant to this Section
may be repaid and, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
reborrowed at any time during the term of this Agreement.

         2.2      REDUCTION OF MAXIMUM REVOLVER AMOUNT.

                           (a)      Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap.
Borrower agrees that at least 2 Business Days prior to the closing of any
Permitted Disposition of a Station (it being understood that this Section 2.2(a)
applies only to Permitted Dispositions under clauses (c) and (d) of the
definition of such term) or Permitted Swap of a Station, Borrower shall deliver
to Agent a certificate executed by the chief financial officer of Borrower, in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, setting forth an estimate
of the Net Cash Proceeds to be received by the Obligors as a result of such
Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap. In the event such Permitted Disposition
or Permitted Swap is consummated, Agent may, in its sole discretion, require
that the Net Cash Proceeds, in an amount up to the amount of Advances then
outstanding plus (if there is no Excess Availability after giving effect to such
Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap) the amount of the Letter of Credit
Usage then extant, be remitted to Agent on the first Business Day after the date
or dates of their receipt by Borrower to be applied in accordance with Section
2.4(b) without penalty or premium (unless Borrower has elected to terminate this
Agreement in connection with such prepayment). At the time of the consummation
of any such Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap, Borrower shall elect either
to (a) permanently reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount by the amount of the Net
Cash Proceeds from the subject Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap, such
permanent reduction to occur on the date or dates on which Agent receives any of
the Net Cash Proceeds from such Permitted Disposition or Permitted Swap and, on
each such date, shall be in an amount equal to the

                                      -38-
<PAGE>

proceeds received by Agent on such date, or (b) to re-invest such Net Cash
Proceeds in assets (including Stock of another Person) used or useful in the
business similar or ancillary to the business of the Obligors as it exists as of
the date hereof so long as such re-investment would constitute a Permitted
Acquisition or a Permitted Joint Venture Acquisition hereunder if it constitutes
an Acquisition; provided, however, that (i) such re-investment must occur within
179 days following the Obligor's receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and, (ii)
if, on such 179th day all or any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds received has
not been so re-invested, such amount shall constitute a permanent reduction of
the Maximum Revolver Amount as of such date. If Borrower fails to make the
foregoing election at the time of the consummation of a Permitted Disposition or
Permitted Swap, it shall be deemed to have elected to permanently reduce the
Maximum Revolver Amount in accordance with clause (a) above.

                           (b)      Permitted Disposition LMA. Borrower agrees
that at least 2 Business Days prior to its execution of any Permitted
Disposition LMA (the "LMA Execution Date"), Borrower shall deliver to Agent a
certificate executed the chief financial officer of Borrower, in form and
substance reasonably satisfactory to Agent, setting forth an estimate of the Net
Cash Proceeds to be received by the Obligors as a result of entering into such
Permitted Disposition LMA. In the event such Permitted Disposition LMA is
consummated, Borrower must remit the Net Cash Proceeds to Agent, in an amount up
to the amount of Advances then outstanding plus (if there is no Excess
Availability after giving effect to such Permitted Disposition or Permitted
Swap) the amount of the Letter of Credit Usage then extant, on the first
Business Day after the date or dates of their receipt by Borrower to be applied
in accordance with Section 2.4(b) without penalty or premium (unless Borrower
has elected to terminate this Agreement in connection with such prepayment). At
the time of the consummation of any such Permitted Disposition LMA, Borrower
shall elect either to (a) permanently reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount by the
amount of the Net Cash Proceeds from the subject Permitted Disposition LMA, such
permanent reduction to occur on the date or dates on which Agent receives any of
the Net Cash Proceeds from such Permitted Disposition LMA and, on each such
date, shall be in an amount equal to the proceeds received by Agent on such
date, or (b) to re-invest such Net Cash Proceeds in assets (including Stock of
another Person) used or useful in the business similar or ancillary to the
business of the Obligors as it exists as of the date hereof so long as such
re-investment would constitute a Permitted Acquisition or a Permitted Joint
Venture Acquisition hereunder if it constitutes an Acquisition; provided,
however, that (i) such re-investment must occur within 179 days following the
Obligor's receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, and (ii) if, on such 179th day all
or any portion of the Net Cash Proceeds received has not been so re-invested,
such amount shall constitute a permanent reduction of the Maximum Revolver
Amount as of such date. If Borrower fails to make the foregoing election at the
time of the consummation of a Permitted Disposition LMA, it shall be deemed to
have elected to permanently reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount in accordance
with clause (a) above.

         2.3      BORROWING PROCEDURES AND SETTLEMENTS.

                           (a)      PROCEDURE FOR BORROWING. Each Borrowing
shall be made by an irrevocable written request by an Authorized Person
delivered to Agent (which notice must be received by Agent no later than 10:00
a.m. (California time) on the Business Day prior to the date that is the
requested Funding Date in the case of a request for an Advance specifying (i)
the amount of such Borrowing, and (ii) the requested Funding Date, which shall
be a Business Day; provided, however, that in the case of a request for Swing
Loan in an amount of $3,000,000 or less, such notice will be timely received if
it is received by Agent no later than 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the
Business Day that is the requested Funding Date) specifying (i) the amount of
such Borrowing, and (ii) the requested Funding Date, which shall be a Business
Day. At Agent's election, in lieu of delivering the above-described written
request, any Authorized Person may give Agent telephonic notice of such request
by the required time, with such telephonic notice to be confirmed in writing
within 24 hours of the giving of such notice.

                           (b)      AGENT'S ELECTION. Promptly after receipt of
a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.3(a), Agent shall elect, in its
discretion, (i) to have the terms of Section 2.3(c) apply to such requested
Borrowing, or (ii) if the Borrowing is for an Advance, to request Swing Lender
to make a Swing Loan pursuant to the terms of Section 2.3(d) in the amount of
the requested Borrowing; provided, however, that if Swing Lender declines in its
sole discretion to make a Swing Loan pursuant to Section 2.3(d), Agent shall
elect to have the terms of Section 2.3(c) apply to such requested Borrowing.

                           (c)      MAKING OF ADVANCES.

                           (i)      In the event that Agent shall elect to have
                  the terms of this Section 2.3(c) apply to a requested
                  Borrowing as described in Section 2.3(b), then promptly after
                  receipt of a request for a Borrowing pursuant to Section
                  2.3(a), Agent shall notify the Lenders, not later than 1:00
                  p.m. (California time) on the Business Day immediately
                  preceding the Funding Date applicable thereto, by telecopy,
                  telephone, or other similar form of transmission, of the
                  requested Borrowing. Each Lender shall make the amount of such
                  Lender's Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing available
                  to Agent in immediately available funds, to Agent's Account,
                  not later than 10:00 a.m. (California time) on the Funding
                  Date applicable thereto. After Agent's receipt of the proceeds
                  of such Advances, upon satisfaction of the applicable
                  conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 hereof, Agent
                  shall make the proceeds thereof available to Borrower on the
                  applicable Funding Date by transferring immediately available
                  funds equal to such proceeds received by Agent to Borrower's
                  Designated Account; provided, however, that, subject to the
                  provisions of Section 2.3(i), Agent shall not request any
                  Lender to make, and no Lender shall have the obligation to
                  make, any Advance if Agent shall have

                                      -40-
<PAGE>

                  actual knowledge that (1) one or more of the applicable
                  conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be
                  satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable
                  Borrowing unless such condition has been waived, or (2) the
                  requested Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such
                  Funding Date.

                           (ii)     Unless Agent receives notice from a Lender
                  on or prior to the Restatement Closing Date or, with respect
                  to any Borrowing after the Restatement Closing Date, at least
                  1 Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such
                  Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder
                  to Agent for the account of Borrower the amount of that
                  Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Borrowing, Agent may assume
                  that each Lender has made or will make such amount available
                  to Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date
                  and Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon
                  such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a
                  corresponding amount. If and to the extent any Lender shall
                  not have made its full amount available to Agent in
                  immediately available funds and Agent in such circumstances
                  has made available to Borrower such amount, that Lender shall
                  on the Business Day following such Funding Date make such
                  amount available to Agent, together with interest at the
                  Defaulting Lender Rate for each day during such period. A
                  notice submitted by Agent to any Lender with respect to
                  amounts owing under this subsection shall be conclusive,
                  absent manifest error. If such amount is so made available,
                  such payment to Agent shall constitute such Lender's Advance
                  on the date of Borrowing for all purposes of this Agreement.
                  If such amount is not made available to Agent on the Business
                  Day following the Funding Date, Agent will notify Borrower of
                  such failure to fund and, upon demand by Agent, Borrower shall
                  pay such amount to Agent for Agent's account, together with
                  interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such
                  Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the interest rate
                  applicable at the time to the Advances composing such
                  Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make any Advance on
                  any Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of any
                  obligation hereunder to make an Advance on such Funding Date,
                  but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any
                  other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other
                  Lender on any Funding Date.

                           (iii)    Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to
                  a Defaulting Lender any payments made by Borrower to Agent for
                  the Defaulting Lender's benefit, and, in the absence of such
                  transfer to the Defaulting Lender, Agent shall transfer any
                  such payments to each other non-Defaulting Lender member of
                  the Lender Group ratably in accordance with their Commitments
                  (but only to the extent that such Defaulting Lender's Advance
                  was funded by the other members of the Lender Group) or, if so
                  directed by Borrower and if no Default or Event of Default had
                  occurred and is continuing (and to the extent such

                                      -41-
<PAGE>
                  Defaulting Lender's Advance was not funded by the Lender
                  Group), retain same to be re-advanced to Borrower as if such
                  Defaulting Lender had made Advances to Borrower. Subject to
                  the foregoing, Agent may hold and, in its Permitted
                  Discretion, re-lend to Borrower for the account of such
                  Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and
                  retained by it for the account of such Defaulting Lender.
                  Solely for the purposes of voting or consenting to matters
                  with respect to the Loan Documents, such Defaulting Lender
                  shall be deemed not to be a "Lender" and such Lender's
                  Commitment shall be deemed to be zero. This Section shall
                  remain effective with respect to such Lender until (x) the
                  Obligations under this Agreement shall have been declared or
                  shall have become immediately due and payable, (y) the
                  non-Defaulting Lenders, Agent, and Borrower shall have waived
                  such Defaulting Lender's default in writing, or (z) the
                  Defaulting Lender makes its Pro Rata Share of the applicable
                  Advance and pays to Agent all amounts owing by Defaulting
                  Lender in respect thereof. The operation of this Section shall
                  not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the
                  Commitment of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance
                  by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties
                  and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the
                  performance by Borrower of its duties and obligations
                  hereunder to Agent or to the Lenders other than such
                  Defaulting Lender. Any such failure to fund by any Defaulting
                  Lender shall constitute a material breach by such Defaulting
                  Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle Borrower at its
                  option, upon written notice to Agent, to arrange for a
                  substitute Lender to assume the Commitment of such Defaulting
                  Lender, such substitute Lender to be acceptable to Agent. In
                  connection with the arrangement of such a substitute Lender,
                  the Defaulting Lender shall have no right to refuse to be
                  replaced hereunder, and agrees to execute and deliver a
                  completed form of Assignment and Acceptance Agreement in favor
                  of the substitute Lender (and agrees that it shall be deemed
                  to have executed and delivered such document if it fails to do
                  so) subject only to being repaid its share of the outstanding
                  Obligations (including an assumption of its Pro Rata Share of
                  the Risk Participation Liability) without any premium or
                  penalty of any kind whatsoever; provided further, however,
                  that any such assumption of the Commitment of such Defaulting
                  Lender shall not be deemed to constitute a waiver of any of
                  the Lender Groups' or Borrower's rights or remedies against
                  any such Defaulting Lender arising out of or in relation to
                  such failure to fund.

                           (d)      MAKING OF SWING LOANS.

                           (i)      In the event Agent shall elect, with the
                  consent of Swing Lender, as a Lender, to have the terms of
                  this Section 2.3(d) apply to a requested Borrowing as
                  described in Section 2.3(b), Swing Lender as a Lender shall
                  make such Advance in the amount of such Borrowing (any such
                  Advance

                                      -42-
<PAGE>

                  made solely by Swing Lender as a Lender pursuant to this
                  Section 2.3(d) being referred to as a "Swing Loan" and such
                  Advances being referred to collectively as "Swing Loans")
                  available to Borrower on the Funding Date applicable thereto
                  by transferring immediately available funds to Borrower's
                  Designated Account. Each Swing Loan is an Advance hereunder
                  and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions
                  applicable to other Advances, except that all payments on any
                  Swing Loan shall be payable to Swing Lender as a Lender solely
                  for its own account (and for the account of the holder of any
                  Participating Interest with respect to such Swing Loan).
                  Subject to the provisions of Section 2.3(i), Agent shall not
                  request Swing Lender as a Lender to make, and Swing Lender as
                  a Lender shall not make, any Swing Loan if Agent has actual
                  knowledge that (i) one or more of the applicable conditions
                  precedent set forth in Section 3 will not be satisfied on the
                  requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing unless
                  such condition has been waived, or (ii) the requested
                  Borrowing would exceed the Availability on such Funding Date.
                  Swing Lender as a Lender shall not otherwise be required to
                  determine whether the applicable conditions precedent set
                  forth in Section 3 have been satisfied on the Funding Date
                  applicable thereto prior to making, in its sole discretion,
                  any Swing Loan.

                           (ii)     The Swing Loans shall be secured by the
                  Agent's Liens, shall constitute Advances and Obligations
                  hereunder, and shall bear interest at the rate applicable from
                  time to time to Advances that are Base Rate Loans.

                           (e)      AGENT ADVANCES.

                           (i)      Agent hereby is authorized by Borrower and
                  the Lenders, from time to time in Agent's sole discretion, (1)
                  after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Default
                  or an Event of Default, or (2) at any time that any of the
                  other applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 3
                  have not been satisfied, to make Advances to Borrower on
                  behalf of the Lenders that Agent, in its Permitted Discretion
                  deems necessary or desirable (A) to preserve or protect the
                  Collateral, or any portion thereof, (B) to enhance the
                  likelihood of repayment of the Obligations, or (C) to pay any
                  other amount chargeable to Borrower pursuant to the terms of
                  this Agreement, including Lender Group Expenses and the costs,
                  fees, and expenses described in Section 10 (any of the
                  Advances described in this Section 2.3(e) shall be referred to
                  as "Agent Advances"). Each Agent Advance is an Advance
                  hereunder and shall be subject to all the terms and conditions
                  applicable to other Advances, except that no such Agent
                  Advance shall be eligible for the LIBOR Option and all
                  payments thereon shall be payable to Agent solely for its own
                  account (and for the account of the holder of any
                  Participating Interest with respect to such Agent Advance).

                           (ii)     The Agent Advances shall be repayable on
                  demand and secured by the Agent's Liens granted to Agent under
                  the Loan Documents, shall constitute Advances and Obligations
                  hereunder, and shall bear interest at the rate applicable from
                  time to time to Advances that are Base Rate Loans.

                           (f)      SETTLEMENT. It is agreed that each Lender's
funded portion of the Advances is intended by the Lenders to equal, at all
times, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Advances. Such agreement
notwithstanding, Agent, Swing Lender, and the other Lenders agree (which
agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by Borrower) that in
order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, settlement among them as to the Advances, the Swing Loans, and the
Agent Advances shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the
following provisions:

                           (i)      Agent shall request settlement
                  ("Settlement") with the Lenders on a weekly basis, or on a
                  more frequent basis if so determined by Agent, (1) on behalf
                  of Swing Lender, with respect to each outstanding Swing Loan,
                  (2) for itself, with respect to each Agent Advance, and (3)
                  with respect to proceeds of Collections received, as to each
                  by notifying the Lenders by telecopy, telephone, or other
                  similar form of transmission, of such requested Settlement, no
                  later than 2:00 p.m. (California time) on the Business Day
                  immediately prior to the date of such requested Settlement
                  (the date of such requested Settlement being the "Settlement
                  Date"). Such notice of a Settlement Date shall include a
                  summary statement of the amount of outstanding Advances, Swing
                  Loans, and Agent Advances for the period since the prior
                  Settlement Date. Subject to the terms and conditions contained
                  herein (including Section 2.3(c)(iii)): (y) if a Lender's
                  balance of the Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent Advances
                  exceeds such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advances, Swing
                  Loans, and Agent Advances as of a Settlement Date, then Agent
                  shall, by no later than 12:00 p.m. (California time) on the
                  Settlement Date, transfer in immediately available funds to
                  the account of such Lender as such Lender may designate, an
                  amount such that each such Lender shall, upon receipt of such
                  amount, have as of the Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of
                  the Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent Advances, and (z) if a
                  Lender's balance of the Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent
                  Advances is less than such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
                  Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent Advances as of a Settlement
                  Date, such Lender shall no later than 12:00 p.m. (California
                  time) on the Settlement Date transfer in immediately available
                  funds to the Agent's Account, an amount such that each such
                  Lender shall, upon transfer of such amount, have as of the
                  Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Advances, Swing
                  Loans, and Agent Advances. Such amounts made available to
                  Agent under clause (z) of the immediately preceding sentence
                  shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swing
                  Loan or Agent Advance and, together with the portion of such
                  Swing Loan or Agent

                                      -44-
<PAGE>

                  Advance representing Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share thereof,
                  shall constitute Advances of such Lenders. If any such amount
                  is not made available to Agent by any Lender on the Settlement
                  Date applicable thereto to the extent required by the terms
                  hereof, Agent shall be entitled to recover for its account
                  such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest
                  thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate.

                           (ii)     In determining whether a Lender's balance of
                  the Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent Advances is less than,
                  equal to, or greater than such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the
                  Advances, Swing Loans, and Agent Advances as of a Settlement
                  Date, Agent shall, as part of the relevant Settlement, apply
                  to such balance the portion of payments actually received in
                  good funds by Agent with respect to principal, interest, fees
                  payable by Borrower and allocable to the Lenders hereunder,
                  and proceeds of Collateral. To the extent that a net amount is
                  owed to any such Lender after such application, such net
                  amount shall be distributed by Agent to that Lender as part of
                  such next Settlement.

                           (iii)    Between Settlement Dates, Agent, to the
                  extent no Agent Advances or Swing Loans are outstanding, may
                  pay over to Swing Lender any payments received by Agent, that
                  in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be
                  applied to the reduction of the Advances, for application to
                  Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advances. If, as of any
                  Settlement Date, proceeds of Collections received since the
                  then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied
                  to Swing Lender's Pro Rata Share of the Advances other than to
                  Swing Loans, as provided for in the previous sentence, Swing
                  Lender shall pay to Agent for the accounts of the Lenders, and
                  Agent shall pay to the Lenders, to be applied to the
                  outstanding Advances of such Lenders, an amount such that each
                  Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such
                  Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the Advances. During
                  the period between Settlement Dates, Swing Lender with respect
                  to Swing Loans, Agent with respect to Agent Advances, and each
                  Lender (subject to the effect of letter agreements between
                  Agent and individual Lenders) with respect to the Advances
                  other than Swing Loans and Agent Advances, shall be entitled
                  to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this
                  Agreement on the daily amount of funds employed by Swing
                  Lender, Agent, or the Lenders, as applicable.

                           (g)      NOTATION. Agent shall record on its books
the principal amount of the Advances owing to each Lender, including the Swing
Loans owing to Swing Lender, and Agent Advances owing to Agent, and the
interests therein of each Lender, from time to time. In addition, each Lender is
authorized, at such Lender's option, to note the date and amount of each payment
or prepayment of principal of such Lender's Advances in its books

                                      -45-
<PAGE>

and records, including computer records, such books and records constituting
conclusive evidence for the Lender Group, absent manifest error, of the accuracy
of the information contained therein.

                           (h)      LENDERS' FAILURE TO PERFORM. All Advances
(other than Swing Loans and Agent Advances) shall be made by the Lenders
contemporaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares. It is understood
that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to
perform its obligation to make any Advance (or other extension of credit)
hereunder, nor shall any Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a
result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligations hereunder,
and (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligations hereunder shall
excuse any other Lender from its obligations hereunder.

                           (i)      OPTIONAL OVERADVANCES. Any contrary
provision of this Agreement notwithstanding, the Lenders hereby authorize Agent
or Swing Lender, as applicable, and Agent or Swing Lender, as applicable, may,
but is not obligated to, knowingly and intentionally, continue to make Advances
(including Swing Loans) to Borrower notwithstanding that an Overadvance exists
or thereby would be created, so long as (i) after giving effect to such Advances
(including a Swing Loan), the outstanding Revolver Usage does not exceed the
Borrowing Base by more than $2,500,000 (ii) after giving effect to such Advances
(including a Swing Loan), the outstanding Revolver Usage (except for and
excluding amounts charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or Lender
Group Expenses) does not exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount, and (iii) at the
time of the making of any such Advance (including any Swing Loan), Agent does
not believe, in good faith, that the Overadvance created by such Advance will be
outstanding for more than 90 days. The foregoing provisions are for the
exclusive benefit of Agent, Swing Lender, and the Lenders and are not intended
to benefit Borrower in any way. The Advances and Swing Loans, as applicable,
that are made pursuant to this Section 2.3(i) shall be subject to the same terms
and conditions as any other Advance or Swing Loan, as applicable, except that
they shall not be eligible for the LIBOR Option and the rate of interest
applicable thereto shall be the rate applicable to Advances that are Base Rate
Loans under Section 2.6(c) hereof without regard to the presence or absence of a
Default or Event of Default.

                           (i)      In the event Agent obtains actual knowledge
                  that the Revolver Usage exceeds the amounts permitted by the
                  preceding paragraph, regardless of the amount of, or reason
                  for, such excess, Agent shall notify Lenders as soon as
                  practicable (and prior to making any (or any additional)
                  intentional Overadvances (except for and excluding amounts
                  charged to the Loan Account for interest, fees, or Lender
                  Group Expenses) unless Agent determines that prior notice
                  would result in imminent harm to the Collateral or its value),
                  and the Lenders thereupon shall, together with Agent, jointly
                  determine the terms of arrangements that shall be implemented
                  with Borrower intended to reduce, within a reasonable time,
                  the outstanding principal amount of the Advances to

                                      -46-
<PAGE>

                  Borrower to an amount permitted by the preceding paragraph. In
                  the event Agent or any Lender disagrees over the terms of
                  reduction or repayment of any Overadvance, the terms of
                  reduction or repayment thereof shall be implemented according
                  to the determination of the Required Lenders.

                           (ii)     Each Lender shall be obligated to settle
                  with Agent as provided in Section 2.3(f) for the amount of
                  such Lender's Pro Rata Share of any unintentional Overadvances
                  by Agent reported to such Lender, any intentional Overadvances
                  made as permitted under this Section 2.3(i), and any
                  Overadvances resulting from the charging to the Loan Account
                  of interest, fees, or Lender Group Expenses.

         2.4      PAYMENTS.

                           (a)      PAYMENTS BY BORROWER.

                                    (i)      Except as otherwise expressly
                  provided herein, all payments by Borrower shall be made to
                  Agent's Account for the account of the Lender Group and shall
                  be made in immediately available funds, no later than 11:00
                  a.m. (California time) on the date specified herein. Any
                  payment received by Agent later than 11:00 a.m. (California
                  time) shall be deemed to have been received on the following
                  Business Day and any applicable interest or fee shall continue
                  to accrue until such following Business Day.

                                    (ii)     Unless Agent receives notice from
                  Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the
                  Lenders that Borrower will not make such payment in full as
                  and when required, Agent may assume that Borrower has made (or
                  will make) such payment in full to Agent on such date in
                  immediately available funds and Agent may (but shall not be so
                  required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to
                  each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount
                  then due such Lender. If and to the extent Borrower does not
                  make such payment in full to Agent on the date when due, each
                  Lender severally shall repay to Agent on demand such amount
                  distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at
                  the Defaulting Lender Rate for each day from the date such
                  amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

                           (b)      APPORTIONMENT AND APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS.

                           (i)      Except as otherwise provided with
                  respect to Defaulting Lenders and except as otherwise provided
                  in the Loan Documents (including letter agreements between
                  Agent and individual Lenders), aggregate principal and
                  interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the
                  Lenders (according to the unpaid principal balance of the
                  Obligations to which such

                                      -47-
<PAGE>

                  payments relate held by each Lender) and payments of fees and
                  expenses (other than fees or expenses that are for Agent's
                  separate account, after giving effect to any letter agreements
                  between Agent and individual Lenders) shall be apportioned
                  ratably among the Lenders having a Pro Rata Share of the type
                  of Commitment or Obligation to which a particular fee relates.
                  All payments shall be remitted to Agent and all such payments
                  (other than payments received while no Event of Default has
                  occurred and is continuing and which relate to the payment of
                  principal or interest of specific Obligations or which relate
                  to the payment of specific fees), and all proceeds of Accounts
                  or other Collateral received by Agent, shall be applied as
                  follows:

                                    first, to pay any Lender Group Expenses then
                           due to Agent under the Loan Documents, until paid in
                           full,

                                    second, to pay any Lender Group Expenses
                           then due to the Lenders under the Loan Documents, on
                           a ratable basis, until paid in full,

                                    third, to pay any fees then due to Agent
                           (for its separate account, after giving effect to any
                           letter agreements between Agent and individual
                           Lenders) under the Loan Documents, until paid in
                           full,

                                    fourth, to pay any fees then due to any or
                           all of the Lenders (after giving effect to any letter
                           agreements between Agent and individual Lenders),
                           under the Loan Documents, on a ratable basis, until
                           paid in full,

                                    fifth, to pay interest due in respect of all
                           Agent Advances, until paid in full,

                                    sixth, ratably to pay interest due in
                           respect of the Advances (other than Agent Advances)
                           and the Swing Loans, until paid in full,

                                    seventh, to pay the principal of all Agent
                           Advances until paid in full,

                                    eighth, to pay the principal of all Swing
                           Loans until paid in full,

                                    ninth, to pay the principal of all Advances
                           until paid in full,

                                    tenth, if an Event of Default has occurred
                           and is continuing, to Agent, to be held by Agent, for
                           the ratable benefit of Issuing Lender and Lenders, as
                           cash collateral in an amount up to 105% of the then
                           extant Letter of Credit Usage until paid in full,

                                    eleventh, to pay any other Obligations then
                           due and payable until paid in full, and

                                    twelfth, to Borrower (to be wired to the
                           Designated Account) or such other Person entitled
                           thereto under applicable law.

                           (ii)     Agent promptly shall distribute to each
                  Lender, pursuant to the applicable wire instructions received
                  from each Lender in writing, such funds as it may be entitled
                  to receive, subject to a Settlement delay as provided in
                  Section 2.3(h).

                           (iii)    In each instance, so long as no Event of
                  Default has occurred and is continuing, Section 2.4(b) shall
                  not be deemed to apply to any payment by Borrower specified by
                  Borrower to be for the payment of specific Obligations then
                  due and payable (or prepayable) under any provision of this
                  Agreement.

                           (iv)     For purposes of the foregoing, "paid in
                  full" means payment of all amounts owing under the Loan
                  Documents according to the terms thereof, including loan fees,
                  service fees, professional fees, interest (and specifically
                  including interest accrued after the commencement of any
                  Insolvency Proceeding), default interest, interest on
                  interest, and expense reimbursements, whether or not the same
                  would be or is allowed or disallowed in whole or in part in
                  any Insolvency Proceeding.

                           (v)      In the event of a direct conflict between
                  the priority provisions of this Section 2.4 and other
                  provisions contained in any other Loan Document, it is the
                  intention of the parties hereto that such priority provisions
                  in such documents shall be read together and construed, to the
                  fullest extent possible, to be in concert with each other. In
                  the event of any actual, irreconcilable conflict that cannot
                  be resolved as aforesaid, the terms and provisions of this
                  Section 2.4 shall control and govern.

         2.5      OVERADVANCES. Subject to Section 2.3(i), if, at any time or
for any reason, the amount of Obligations owed by Borrower to the Lender Group
pursuant to Sections 2.1 and 2.12 is greater than either the Dollar or
percentage limitations set forth in Sections 2.1 or 2.12, (an "Overadvance"),
Borrower immediately shall pay to Agent, in cash, the amount of such excess,
which amount shall be used by Agent to reduce the Obligations in accordance with
the priorities set forth in Section 2.4(b). In addition, Borrower hereby
promises to pay the Obligations (including principal, interest, fees, costs, and
expenses) in Dollars in full to the Lender Group as and when due and payable
under the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

         2.6      INTEREST RATES AND LETTER OF CREDIT FEE: RATES, PAYMENTS, AND
CALCULATIONS.

                           (a)      INTEREST RATES. Except as provided in clause
(c) below, all Obligations (except for undrawn Letters of Credit and other
contingent Obligations not yet due and payable) that have been charged to the
Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall bear interest on the Daily
Balance thereof as follows (i) if the relevant Obligation is an Advance that is
a LIBOR Rate Loan, at a per annum rate equal to the LIBOR Rate plus the LIBOR
Rate Margin, and (ii) otherwise, at a per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus
the Base Rate Margin.

                           (b)      LETTER OF CREDIT FEE. Borrower shall pay
Agent (for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, subject to any letter agreement
between Agent and individual Lenders), a Letter of Credit fee (in addition to
the charges, commissions, fees, and costs set forth in Section 2.12(e)) which
shall accrue at a rate equal to 5.25% per annum times the Daily Balance of the
undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit.

                           (c)      DEFAULT RATE. Upon the occurrence and during
the continuation of an Event of Default (and at the election of Agent or the
Required Lenders),

                                    (i)      all Obligations (except for undrawn
                           Letters of Credit and other contingent Obligations
                           not yet due and payable) that have been charged to
                           the Loan Account pursuant to the terms hereof shall
                           bear interest on the Daily Balance thereof at a per
                           annum rate equal to 3 percentage points above the per
                           annum rate otherwise applicable hereunder, and

                                    (ii)     the Letter of Credit fee provided
                           for above shall be increased to 3 percentage points
                           above the per annum rate otherwise applicable
                           hereunder.

                           (d)      PAYMENT. Interest, Letter of Credit fees,
and all other fees payable hereunder shall be due and payable, in arrears, on
the first day of each month (except for interest on LIBOR Rate Loans which
interest shall be due and payable on (i) the last day of the applicable Interest
Period, and (ii) in the case of an Interest Period of 6 months, on the date that
is 3 months after the commencement of the applicable Interest Period) at any
time that Obligations or Commitments are outstanding. Agent shall, from time to
time without prior notice to Borrower, charge such interest and fees, all Lender
Group Expenses (as and when incurred), the charges, commissions, fees, and costs
provided for in Section 2.12(e) (as and when accrued or incurred), the fees and
costs provided for in Section 2.11 (as and when accrued or incurred), and all
other payments as and when due and payable under any Loan Document to Borrower's
Loan Account, which amounts thereafter shall constitute Advances hereunder and
shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Advances hereunder;
provided, however, that Agent will endeavor in good faith to notify Borrower
promptly after

                                      -50-
<PAGE>

it charges any Lender Group Expenses to Borrower's Loan Account, but the failure
to provide such notification, unless willful, shall not result in any liability
of Agent. Any interest not paid when due shall be compounded by being charged to
Borrower's Loan Account and shall thereafter constitute Advances hereunder and
shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Advances that are Base Rate
Loans hereunder.

                           (e)      COMPUTATION. All interest and fees
chargeable under the Loan Documents shall be computed on the basis of a 360 day
year for the actual number of days elapsed. In the event the Base Rate is
changed from time to time hereafter, the rates of interest hereunder based upon
the Base Rate automatically and immediately shall be increased or decreased by
an amount equal to such change in the Base Rate.

                           (f)      INTENT TO LIMIT CHARGES TO MAXIMUM LAWFUL
RATE. In no event shall the interest rate or rates payable under this Agreement,
plus any other amounts paid in connection herewith, exceed the highest rate
permissible under any law that a court of competent jurisdiction shall, in a
final determination, deem applicable. Borrower and the Lender Group, in
executing and delivering this Agreement, intend legally to agree upon the rate
or rates of interest and manner of payment stated within it; provided, however,
that, anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if said rate or
rates of interest or manner of payment exceeds the maximum allowable under
applicable law, then, ipso facto, as of the date of this Agreement, Borrower is
and shall be liable only for the payment of such maximum as allowed by law, and
payment received from Borrower in excess of such legal maximum, whenever
received, shall be applied to reduce the principal balance of the Obligations to
the extent of such excess.

         2.7      CASH MANAGEMENT.

                           (a)      Borrower shall (i) prior to the\ Restatement
Closing Date, establish and maintain cash management services of a type and on
terms satisfactory to Agent at the bank set forth on Schedule 2.7(a) (the "Cash
Management Bank"), and shall take reasonable steps to ensure that all of its
Account Debtors forward payment of the amounts owed by them directly to such
Cash Management Bank, (ii) from and after the Restatement Closing Date, continue
its historical practice of requiring each of its Subsidiaries to remit to
Borrower all cash and Cash Equivalents of such Subsidiaries when the amount of
cash and Cash Equivalents of each such Subsidiary, in the aggregate for each
such Subsidiary equals $50,000 (other than amounts expected to be expended
within the next 5 Business Days) and arrange to have such excess amounts
remitted to the Cash Management Bank, and (iii) from and after the Restatement
Closing Date, deposit or cause to be deposited promptly, and in any event no
later than the first Business Day after the date of receipt thereof, all of its
Collections (including those Collections sent directly by Account Debtors to the
Cash Management Bank and excluding those resulting from a Permitted Disposition
or Permitted Swap, which Collections shall be remitted to Agent in accordance
with and to the extent required by Section 2.2; but excluding (for clarity) the
Collections of Borrower's

                                      -51-
<PAGE>

Subsidiaries which are intended to be covered by clause (ii) above) into a bank
account (a "Cash Management Account") at the Cash Management Bank.

                           (b)      The Cash Management Bank shall establish and
maintain a Cash Management Agreement with Agent and Borrower, in form and
substance acceptable to Agent. Each such Cash Management Agreement shall
provide, among other things, that (i) all items of payment deposited in such
Cash Management Account and proceeds thereof are held by such Cash Management
Bank as agent or bailee-in-possession for Agent, (ii) the Cash Management Bank
has no rights of setoff or recoupment or any other claim against the applicable
Cash Management Account other than for payment of its service fees and other
charges directly related to the administration of such Cash Management Account
and for returned checks or other items of payment, and (iii) upon receipt of
written notice from Agent to the Cash Management Bank, it immediately will
forward by daily sweep all amounts in the applicable Cash Management Account to
the Agent's Account. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding,
Agent agrees that it shall not provide the above-described notice to the Cash
Management Bank unless and until a Triggering Event has occurred and is
continuing at a time when Advances or Letters of Credit are outstanding. Once a
Triggering Event has occurred and is continuing at a time when Advances or
Letters of Credit are outstanding, Agent shall be free to exercise its right to
issue such notice and the subsequent elimination of the subject Triggering Event
shall not eliminate the effectiveness of such notice.

                           (c)      So long as no Default or Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Borrower may amend Schedule 2.7(a) to add or
replace a Cash Management Bank or Cash Management Account; provided, however,
that (i) such prospective Cash Management Bank shall be satisfactory to Agent
and Agent shall have consented in writing in advance to the opening of such Cash
Management Account with the prospective Cash Management Bank, and (ii) prior to
the time of the opening of such Cash Management Account, Borrower and such
prospective Cash Management Bank shall have executed and delivered to Agent a
Cash Management Agreement. Borrower shall close any of its Cash Management
Accounts (and establish replacement cash management accounts in accordance with
the foregoing sentence) promptly and in any event within 30 days of notice from
Agent that the creditworthiness of any Cash Management Bank is no longer
acceptable in Agent's reasonable judgment, or as promptly as practicable and in
any event within 60 days of notice from Agent that the operating performance,
funds transfer, or availability procedures or performance of the Cash Management
Bank with respect to Cash Management Accounts or Agent's liability under any
Cash Management Agreement with such Cash Management Bank is no longer acceptable
in Agent's reasonable judgment.

                           (d)      The Cash Management Accounts shall be cash
collateral accounts, with all cash, checks and similar items of payment in such
accounts securing payment of the Obligations, and in which Borrower is hereby
deemed to have granted a Lien to Agent.

                                      -52-
<PAGE>

         2.8      CREDITING PAYMENTS. The receipt of any payment item by Agent
(whether from transfers to Agent by the Cash Management Banks pursuant to the
Cash Management Agreements or otherwise) shall not be considered a payment on
account unless such payment item is a wire transfer of immediately available
federal funds made to the Agent's Account or unless and until such payment item
is honored when presented for payment. Should any payment item not be honored
when presented for payment, then Borrower shall be deemed not to have made such
payment and interest shall be calculated accordingly. Anything to the contrary
contained herein notwithstanding, any payment item shall be deemed received by
Agent only if it is received into the Agent's Account on a Business Day on or
before 11:00 a.m. (California time). If any payment item is received into the
Agent's Account on a non-Business Day or after 11:00 a.m. (California time) on a
Business Day, it shall be deemed to have been received by Agent as of the
opening of business on the immediately following Business Day.

         2.9      DESIGNATED ACCOUNT. Agent is authorized to make the Advances,
and Issuing Lender is authorized to issue the Letters of Credit, under this
Agreement based upon telephonic or other instructions received from anyone
purporting to be an Authorized Person, or without instructions if pursuant to
Section 2.6(d). Borrower agrees to establish and maintain the Designated Account
with the Designated Account Bank for the purpose of receiving the proceeds of
the Advances requested by Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder.
Unless otherwise agreed by Agent and Borrower, any Advance, Agent Advance, or
Swing Loan requested by Borrower and made by Agent or the Lenders hereunder
shall be made to the Designated Account.

         2.10     MAINTENANCE OF LOAN ACCOUNT; STATEMENTS OF OBLIGATIONS. Agent
shall maintain an account on its books in the name of Borrower (the "Loan
Account") on which Borrower will be charged with all Advances (including Agent
Advances and Swing Loans) made by Agent, Swing Lender, or the Lenders to
Borrower or for Borrower's account, the Letters of Credit issued by Issuing
Lender for Borrower's account, and with all other payment Obligations hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents, including, accrued interest, fees and
expenses, and Lender Group Expenses. In accordance with Section 2.8, the Loan
Account will be credited with all payments received by Agent from Borrower or
for Borrower's account, including all amounts received in the Agent's Account
from any Cash Management Bank. Agent shall render statements regarding the Loan
Account to Borrower, including principal, interest, fees, and including an
itemization of all charges and expenses constituting Lender Group Expenses
owing, and such statements shall be conclusively presumed to be correct and
accurate and constitute an account stated between Borrower and the Lender Group
unless, within 60 days after receipt thereof by Borrower, Borrower shall deliver
to Agent written objection thereto describing the error or errors contained in
any such statements.

         2.11     FEES. Borrower shall pay to Agent the following fees and
charges, which fees and charges shall be non-refundable when paid (irrespective
of whether this Agreement is

                                      -53-
<PAGE>

terminated thereafter) and shall be apportioned among the Lenders in accordance
with the terms of letter agreements between Agent and individual Lenders:

                           (a)      UNUSED LINE FEE. On the first day of each
month during the term of this Agreement, an unused line fee in an amount equal
to 0.50% per annum times the result of (i) the Maximum Revolver Amount less (ii)
the sum of (A) the average Daily Balance of Advances that were outstanding
during the immediately preceding month, plus (B) the average Daily Balance of
the Letter of Credit Usage during the immediately preceding month,

                           (b)      FEE LETTER FEES. As and when due and payable
under the terms of the Fee Letter, Borrower shall pay to Agent the fees set
forth in the Fee Letter, and

                           (c)      AUDIT, APPRAISAL, AND VALUATION CHARGES. For
the separate account of Agent, audit, appraisal, and valuation fees and charges
as follows (i) a fee of $850 per day, per auditor, plus out-of-pocket expenses
for each financial audit of Borrower performed by personnel employed by Agent,
(ii) a fee of $1,500 per day per appraiser, plus out-of-pocket expenses, for
each appraisal of the Collateral performed by personnel employed by Agent, and
(iii) the actual charges paid or incurred by Agent if it elects to employ the
services of one or more third Persons to perform financial audits of Borrower,
to appraise the Collateral, or any portion thereof, or to assess Borrower's
business valuation. The foregoing notwithstanding, so long as no Event of
Default is continuing, Borrower shall not be required to pay the fees and
charges of more than (a) 3 audits per fiscal year, and (b) 2 appraisals per
fiscal year. Without limiting the rights of Agent under this Section 2.11(c) and
so long as no Event of Default is continuing, Borrower, for the purpose of
adjusting the calculation of Applicable Eligible Value, shall be entitled to
cause to be performed, at Borrower's expense, up to 2 appraisals of the STAC
Value or the OLV Value of the Stations per fiscal year and shall be entitled to
choose whether the appraisal is a STAC Value or an OLV Value appraisal, and upon
delivery of any such appraisal to Agent, such appraisal shall constitute the
basis for calculating the Applicable Eligible Value.

         2.12     LETTERS OF CREDIT

                           (a)      Subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, the Issuing Lender agrees to issue letters of credit for the account
of Borrower (each, an "L/C") or to purchase participations or execute
indemnities or reimbursement obligations (each such undertaking, an "L/C
Undertaking") with respect to letters of credit issued by an Underlying Issuer
(as of the Restatement Closing Date the prospective Underlying Issuer shall be
Wells Fargo) for the account of Borrower. To request the issuance of an L/C or
an L/C Undertaking (or the amendment, renewal, or extension of an outstanding
L/C or L/C Undertaking), Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by
electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the
Issuing Lender) to the Issuing Lender and Agent (reasonably in advance of the
requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension) a notice
requesting the issuance of an L/C or L/C

                                      -54-
<PAGE>

Undertaking, or identifying the L/C or L/C Undertaking to be amended, renewed,
or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal, or extension, the date on
which such L/C or L/C Undertaking is to expire, the amount of such L/C or L/C
Undertaking, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof (or the beneficiary
of the Underlying Letter of Credit, as applicable), and such other information
as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew, or extend such L/C or L/C
Undertaking. If requested by the Issuing Lender, Borrower also shall be an
applicant under the application with respect to any Underlying Letter of Credit
that is to be the subject of an L/C Undertaking. The Issuing Lender shall have
no obligation to issue a Letter of Credit if any of the following would result
after giving effect to the requested Letter of Credit:

                           (i)      the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the
                  Borrowing Base less the amount of outstanding Advances, or

                           (ii)     the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed
                  $4,000,000, or

                           (iii)    the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed the
                  Maximum Revolver Amount less the then extant amount of
                  outstanding Advances.

                  Borrower and the Lender Group acknowledge and agree that
certain Underlying Letters of Credit may be issued to support letters of credit
that already are outstanding as of the Restatement Closing Date. Each Letter of
Credit (and corresponding Underlying Letter of Credit) shall be in form and
substance acceptable to the Issuing Lender (in the exercise of its Permitted
Discretion), including the requirement that the amounts payable thereunder must
be payable in Dollars. If Issuing Lender is obligated to advance funds under a
Letter of Credit, Borrower immediately shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement to
Issuing Lender by paying to Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not
later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the date that such L/C Disbursement
is made, if Borrower shall have received written or telephonic notice of such
L/C Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., California time, on such date, or, if such
notice has not been received by Borrower prior to such time on such date, then
not later than 11:00 a.m., California time, on the following Business Day and,
in the absence of such reimbursement, the L/C Disbursement immediately and
automatically shall be deemed to be an Advance hereunder and, thereafter, shall
bear interest at the rate then applicable to Advances that are Base Rate Loans
under Section 2.6 unless and until converted to a LIBOR Rate Loan in accordance
with the terms hereof. To the extent an L/C Disbursement is deemed to be an
Advance hereunder, Borrower's obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement
shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Advance. Promptly following
receipt by Agent of any payment from Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, Agent
shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Lender or, to the extent that
Lenders have made payments pursuant to Section 2.12(c) to reimburse the Issuing
Lender, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Lender as their interest may
appear.

                                      -55-
<PAGE>

                           (b)      Promptly following receipt of a notice of
L/C Disbursement pursuant to Section 2.12(a), each Lender agrees to fund its Pro
Rata Share of any Advance deemed made pursuant to the foregoing subsection on
the same terms and conditions as if Borrower had requested such Advance and
Agent shall promptly pay to Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from
the Lenders. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter
of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the
part of the Issuing Lender or the Lenders, the Issuing Lender shall be deemed to
have granted to each Lender, and each Lender shall be deemed to have purchased,
a participation in each Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata
Share of the Risk Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit, and each
such Lender agrees to pay to Agent, for the account of the Issuing Lender, such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender under such
Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each
Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to Agent, for the
account of the Issuing Lender, such Lender's Pro Rata Share of each L/C
Disbursement made by the Issuing Lender and not reimbursed by Borrower on the
date due as provided in clause (a) of this Section, or of any reimbursement
payment required to be refunded to Borrower for any reason. Each Lender
acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to deliver to Agent, for the account
of the Issuing Lender, an amount equal to its respective Pro Rata Share pursuant
to this Section 2.12(b) shall be absolute and unconditional and such remittance
shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuation of an Event of
Default or Default or the failure to satisfy any condition set forth in Section
3 hereof. If any such Lender fails to make available to Agent the amount of such
Lender's Pro Rata Share of any payments made by the Issuing Lender in respect of
such Letter of Credit as provided in this Section, Agent (for the account of the
Issuing Lender) shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such
Lender together with interest thereon at the Defaulting Lender Rate until paid
in full.

                           (c)      Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save,
defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless from any loss, cost, expense, or
liability, and reasonable attorneys fees incurred by the Lender Group arising
out of or in connection with any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that
Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any loss, cost,
expense, or liability that is caused by the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender Group.
Borrower agrees to be bound by the Underlying Issuer's regulations and
interpretations of any Underlying Letter of Credit or by Issuing Lender's
interpretations of any L/C issued by Issuing Lender to or for Borrower's
account, even though this interpretation may be different from Borrower's own,
and Borrower understands and agrees that the Lender Group shall not be liable
for any error, negligence, or mistake, whether of omission or commission, in
following Borrower's instructions or those contained in the Letter of Credit or
any modifications, amendments, or supplements thereto. Borrower understands that
the L/C Undertakings may require Issuing Lender to indemnify the Underlying
Issuer for certain costs or liabilities arising out of claims by Borrower
against such Underlying Issuer. Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify, save,
defend, and hold the Lender Group harmless

                                      -56-
<PAGE>

with respect to any loss, cost, expense (including reasonable attorneys fees),
or liability incurred by the Lender Group under any L/C Undertaking as a result
of the Lender Group's indemnification of any Underlying Issuer; provided,
however, that Borrower shall not be obligated hereunder to indemnify for any
loss, cost, expense, or liability that is caused by the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender or any other member of the Lender
Group.

                           (d)      Borrower hereby authorizes and directs any
Underlying Issuer to deliver to the Issuing Lender all instruments, documents,
and other writings and property received by such Underlying Issuer pursuant to
such Underlying Letter of Credit and to accept and rely upon the Issuing
Lender's instructions with respect to all matters arising in connection with
such Underlying Letter of Credit and the related application.

                           (e)      Any and all charges, commissions, fees, and
costs incurred by the Issuing Lender relating to Underlying Letters of Credit
shall be Lender Group Expenses for purposes of this Agreement and immediately
shall be reimbursable by Borrower to Agent for the account of the Issuing
Lender; it being acknowledged and agreed by Borrower that, as of the Restatement
Closing Date, the issuance charge imposed by the prospective Underlying Issuer
is .825% per annum times the face amount of each Underlying Letter of Credit,
that such issuance charge may be changed from time to time, and that the
Underlying Issuer also imposes a schedule of charges for amendments, extensions,
drawings, and renewals.

                           (f)      If by reason of (i) any change in any
applicable law, treaty, rule, or regulation or any change in the interpretation
or application thereof by any Governmental Authority, or (ii) compliance by the
Underlying Issuer or the Lender Group with any direction, request, or
requirement (irrespective of whether having the force of law) of any
Governmental Authority or monetary authority including, Regulation D of the
Federal Reserve Board as from time to time in effect (and any successor
thereto):

                           (i)      any reserve, deposit, or similar requirement
                  is or shall be imposed or modified in respect of any Letter of
                  Credit issued hereunder, or

                           (ii)     there shall be imposed on the Underlying
                  Issuer or the Lender Group any other condition regarding any
                  Underlying Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit issued
                  pursuant hereto,

and the result of the foregoing is to increase, directly or indirectly, the cost
to the Lender Group of issuing, making, guaranteeing, or maintaining any Letter
of Credit or to reduce the amount receivable in respect thereof by the Lender
Group, then, and in any such case, Agent may, at any time within a reasonable
period after the additional cost is incurred or the amount received is reduced,
notify Borrower, and Borrower shall pay on demand such amounts as Agent may
specify to be necessary to compensate the Lender Group for such additional cost
or reduced receipt, together with interest on such amount from the date of such
demand until payment in full thereof at the rate then applicable to Base Rate
Loans

                                      -57-

hereunder. The determination by Agent of any amount due pursuant to this
Section, as set forth in a certificate setting forth the calculation thereof in
reasonable detail, shall, in the absence of manifest or demonstrable error, be
final and conclusive and binding on all of the parties hereto.

         2.13     LIBOR OPTION.

                           (a)      INTEREST AND INTEREST PAYMENT DATES. In lieu
of having interest charged at the rate based upon the Base Rate, Borrower shall
have the option (the "LIBOR Option") to have interest on all or a portion of the
Advances be charged at a rate of interest based upon the LIBOR Rate. Interest on
LIBOR Rate Loans shall be payable on the earliest of (i) the last day of the
Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the occurrence of an Event of Default
in consequence of which the Required Lenders or Agent on behalf thereof elect to
accelerate the maturity of all or any portion of the Obligations, or (iii)
termination of this Agreement pursuant to the terms hereof. On the last day of
each applicable Interest Period, unless Borrower properly has exercised the
LIBOR Option with respect thereto, the interest rate applicable to such LIBOR
Rate Loan automatically shall convert to the rate of interest then applicable to
Base Rate Loans of the same type hereunder. At any time that an Event of Default
has occurred and is continuing, Borrower no longer shall have the option to
request that Advances bear interest at the LIBOR Rate and Agent shall have the
right to convert the interest rate on all outstanding LIBOR Rate Loans to the
rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans hereunder.

                           (b)      LIBOR Election.

                           (i)      Borrower may, at any time and from time to
                  time, so long as no Event of Default is continuing, elect to
                  exercise the LIBOR Option by notifying Agent prior to 11:00
                  a.m. (California time) at least 3 Business Days prior to the
                  commencement of the proposed Interest Period (the "LIBOR
                  Deadline"). Notice of Borrower's election of the LIBOR Option
                  for a portion of the Advances and an Interest Period pursuant
                  to this Section shall be made by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR
                  Notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline, or by
                  telephonic notice received by Agent before the LIBOR Deadline
                  (to be confirmed by delivery to Agent of a LIBOR Notice
                  received by Agent prior to 5:00 p.m. (California time) on the
                  same day. Promptly upon its receipt of each such LIBOR Notice,
                  Agent shall provide a copy thereof to each of the Lenders.

                           (ii)     Each LIBOR Notice shall be irrevocable and
                  binding on Borrower. In connection with each LIBOR Rate Loan,
                  Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent and the
                  Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense incurred
                  by Agent or any Lender as a result of (a) the payment of any
                  principal of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the last day of
                  an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result
                  of an Event of Default),

                                      -58-

                  (b) the conversion of any LIBOR Rate Loan other than on the
                  last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, or (c) the
                  failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any LIBOR Rate
                  Loan on the date specified in any LIBOR Notice delivered
                  pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, and expenses,
                  collectively, "Funding Losses"). Funding Losses shall, with
                  respect to Agent or any Lender, be deemed to equal the amount
                  determined by Agent or such Lender to be the excess, if any,
                  of (i) the amount of interest that would have accrued on the
                  principal amount of such LIBOR Rate Loan had such event not
                  occurred, at the LIBOR Rate that would have been applicable
                  thereto, for the period from the date of such event to the
                  last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in
                  the case of a failure to borrow, convert, or continue, for the
                  period that would have been the Interest Period therefor),
                  minus (ii) the amount of interest that would accrue on such
                  principal amount for such period at the interest rate which
                  Agent or such Lender would be offered were it to be offered,
                  at the commencement of such period, Dollar deposits of a
                  comparable amount and period in the London interbank market. A
                  certificate of Agent or a Lender delivered to Borrower setting
                  forth any amount or amounts that Agent or such Lender is
                  entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be
                  conclusive absent manifest error.

                           (iii)    Borrower shall have not more than 8 LIBOR
                  Rate Loans in effect at any given time. Borrower only may
                  exercise the LIBOR Option for LIBOR Rate Loans of at least
                  $1,000,000 and integral multiples of $200,000 in excess
                  thereof.

                           (c)      PREPAYMENTS. Borrower may prepay LIBOR Rate
Loans at any time; provided, however, that in the event that LIBOR Rate Loans
are prepaid on any date that is not the last day of the Interest Period
applicable thereto, including as a result of any automatic prepayment through
the required application by Agent of proceeds of Collections in accordance with
Section 2.4(b) or for any other reason, including early termination of the term
of this Agreement or acceleration of all or any portion of the Obligations
pursuant to the terms hereof, Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold Agent
and the Lenders and their Participants harmless against any and all Funding
Losses in accordance with clause (b)(ii) above.

                           (d)      SPECIAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO LIBOR RATE.

                           (i)      The LIBOR Rate may be adjusted by Agent with
                  respect to any Lender on a prospective basis to take into
                  account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of
                  maintaining or obtaining any eurodollar deposits or increased
                  costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to
                  the commencement of the then applicable Interest Period,
                  including changes in tax laws (except changes of general
                  applicability in corporate income tax laws)

                                      -59-

                  and changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board
                  of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor),
                  excluding the Reserve Percentage, which additional or
                  increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans
                  bearing interest at the LIBOR Rate. In any such event, the
                  affected Lender shall give Borrower and Agent notice of such a
                  determination and adjustment; provided, however, that before
                  making any such demand, the affected Lender agrees to use
                  reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and
                  legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts
                  would not be disadvantageous to it, in its reasonable
                  discretion, in any legal, economic (other than immaterial
                  costs related to such efforts), or regulatory manner) to
                  designate a different eurodollar lending office if the making
                  of such designation would allow the affected Lender to
                  continue to perform its obligations to make LIBOR Rate Loans
                  and avoid the need for, or materially reduce the amount of,
                  such increased cost; and Agent promptly shall transmit the
                  notice to each other Lender. Upon its receipt of the notice
                  from the affected Lender, Borrower may, by notice to such
                  affected Lender (y) require such Lender to furnish to Borrower
                  a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting such LIBOR
                  Rate and the method for determining the amount of such
                  adjustment, or (z) repay the LIBOR Rate Loans with respect to
                  which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due
                  under clause (b)(ii) above). In the case of clause (y) above,
                  within 30 days after its receipt of the notice from the
                  affected Lender, Borrower may, at its option, (I) elect to
                  substitute for such affected Lender any other bank or
                  financial institution reasonably acceptable to Agent, and such
                  affected Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced
                  hereunder, or (II) terminate the Commitment that is held by
                  such affected Lender.

                           (ii)     In the event that any change in market
                  conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or
                  any change therein or in the interpretation of application
                  thereof, shall at any time after the date hereof, in the
                  reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or
                  impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain LIBOR Rate
                  Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or to
                  determine or charge interest rates at the LIBOR Rate, such
                  Lender shall give written notice of such changed circumstances
                  to Agent and Borrower; provided, however, that before making
                  any such demand, the affected Lender agrees to use reasonable
                  efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and
                  regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not
                  be disadvantageous to it, in its reasonable discretion, in any
                  legal, economic (other than immaterial costs related to such
                  efforts), or regulatory manner) to designate a different
                  eurodollar lending office if the making of such designation
                  would allow the affected Lender to continue to perform its
                  obligations to make LIBOR Rate Loans; and Agent promptly shall
                  transmit the notice to each other Lender. Within 30 days after
                  its receipt of the notice from

                                      -60-
<PAGE>

                  such affected Lender, Borrower may, at its option, (I) elect
                  to substitute for such affected Lender any other bank or
                  financial institution reasonably acceptable to Agent, and such
                  affected Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced
                  hereunder, (II) terminate the Commitment that is held by such
                  affected Lender, or (III) elect to accept Base Rate Loans only
                  from such affected Lender.

                           (e)      NO REQUIREMENT OF MATCHED FUNDING. Anything
to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, neither Agent, nor any Lender,
nor any of their Participants, is required actually to acquire eurodollar
deposits to fund or otherwise match fund any Obligation as to which interest
accrues at the LIBOR Rate. The provisions of this Section shall apply as if each
Lender or its Participants had match funded any Obligation as to which interest
is accruing at the LIBOR Rate by acquiring eurodollar deposits for each Interest
Period in the amount of the LIBOR Rate Loans.

         2.14     CAPITAL REQUIREMENTS. If, after the date hereof, any Lender
determines that (i) the adoption of or change after the date hereof in any law,
rule, regulation or guideline regarding capital requirements for banks or bank
holding companies, or any change in the interpretation or application thereof by
any Governmental Authority charged with the administration thereof, or (ii)
compliance by such Lender or its parent bank holding company with any guideline,
request, or directive of any such entity regarding capital adequacy (whether or
not having the force of law), has or will have the effect of reducing the return
on such Lender's or such holding company's capital as a consequence of such
Lender's Commitments hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such
holding company could have achieved but for such adoption, change, or compliance
(taking into consideration such Lender's or such holding company's then existing
policies with respect to capital adequacy and assuming the full utilization of
such entity's capital) by any amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then
such Lender may notify Borrower and Agent thereof. Following receipt of such
notice, Borrower agrees to pay such Lender on demand the amount of such
reduction of return of capital as and when such reduction is determined (but in
no event for a period of more than 90 days prior to the date of the written
notice), payable within 90 days after presentation by such Lender of a statement
in the amount and setting forth in reasonable detail such Lender's calculation
thereof and the assumptions upon which such calculation was based (which
statement shall be deemed true and correct absent manifest error). In
determining such amount, such Lender may use any reasonable averaging and
attribution methods. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event that payments
to any Lender are required to be made hereunder as a result of such additional
costs, Borrower shall be entitled to substitute for such Lender any other bank
or financial institution reasonably acceptable to Agent, and such Lender shall
have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Each such Lender shall state
in the notice required by this Section 2.14, in reasonable detail, the cause and
amount of such additional cost. Within 30 days after receipt of such notice,
Borrower may, at its option, elect to terminate the Commitment that is held by
such Lender.

                                      -66-
<PAGE>

         3.4      TERM. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution
and delivery hereof by Borrower, Agent, and the Lenders and shall continue in
full force and effect for a term ending on July 31, 2006 (the "Maturity Date").
The foregoing notwithstanding, the Lender Group, upon the election of the
Required Lenders, shall have the right to terminate its obligations under this
Agreement immediately and without notice during the continuation of an Event of
Default.

         3.5      EFFECT OF TERMINATION. On the date of termination of this
Agreement, all Obligations (including contingent reimbursement obligations of
Borrower with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit) immediately shall become
due and payable without notice or demand (including either (i) providing cash
collateral to be held by Agent for the benefit of Lenders in an amount equal to
105% of the then extant Letter of Credit Usage, or (ii) causing the original
Letters of Credit to be returned to the Issuing Lender). No termination of this
Agreement, however, shall relieve or discharge Borrower of its duties,
Obligations, or covenants hereunder and the Agent's Liens in the Collateral
shall remain in effect (other than those Liens that were previously released in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement) until all Obligations (other than
contingent indemnification obligations or obligations to reimburse Lender for
drawings under outstanding Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized
as provided herein) have been fully and finally discharged and the Lender
Group's obligations to provide additional credit hereunder have been terminated.
When this Agreement has been terminated and all of the Obligations (other than
contingent indemnification obligations or obligations to reimburse Lender for
drawings under outstanding Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized
as provided herein) have been fully and finally discharged and the Lender
Group's obligations to provide additional credit under the Loan Documents have
been terminated irrevocably, Agent will, at Borrower's sole expense, execute and
deliver any UCC termination statements, lien releases, mortgage releases,
re-assignments of trademarks, discharges of security interests, and other
similar discharge or release documents (and, if applicable, in recordable form)
as are reasonably necessary to release, as of record, the Agent's Liens (other
than with respect to the cash collateral provided pursuant to the first sentence
of this Section 3.5) and all notices of security interests and liens previously
filed by Agent with respect to the Obligations.

         3.6      EARLY TERMINATION BY BORROWER. Borrower has the option, upon
no less than 30 days or more than 45 days prior written notice to Agent, to
terminate this Agreement by paying to Agent, for the benefit of the Lender
Group, in cash, the Obligations (including either (i) providing cash collateral
to be held by Agent for the benefit of Lenders in an amount equal to 105% of the
then extant Letter of Credit Usage, or (ii) causing the original Letters of
Credit to be returned to the Issuing Lender), in full, together with the
Applicable Prepayment Premium (to be allocated among the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Pro Rata Shares). If Borrower sends a notice of
termination pursuant to the provisions of this Section and does not revoke such
notice prior to the termination date set forth therein, then the Commitments
shall terminate and Borrower shall be obligated to repay the Obligations
(including (a) either (i) providing cash collateral to be held by Agent for the
benefit of

                                      -67-
<PAGE>

Lenders in an amount equal to 105% of the then extant Letter of Credit Usage, or
(ii) causing the original Letters of Credit to be returned to the Issuing
Lender), in full, together with the Applicable Prepayment Premium, on the date
set forth in such notice. In the event of the termination of this Agreement and
repayment of the Obligations at any time prior to the Maturity Date, for any
other reason, including (a) termination upon the election of the Required
Lenders to terminate during the continuation of an Event of Default, (b)
foreclosure and sale of Collateral, (c) sale of the Collateral in any Insolvency
Proceeding, or (iv) restructure, reorganization, or compromise of the
Obligations by the confirmation of a plan of reorganization or any other plan of
compromise, restructure, or arrangement in any Insolvency Proceeding, then, in
view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining the actual
amount of damages to the Lender Group or profits lost by the Lender Group as a
result of such early termination, and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a
reasonable estimation and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the
Lender Group, Borrower shall pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium to Agent (to
be allocated among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata
Shares), measured as of the date of such termination. The foregoing to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event that any termination of this Agreement by
Borrower pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.6 occurs as a
proximate result of or in proximate connection with (A) Borrower's consummation
of an equity or subordinated debt issuance, (B) the sale of all or substantially
all of the Stock of Borrower or all or substantially all of Borrower's and its
Subsidiaries' assets, in one or a series of related transactions, or (C) a
refinancing of the Obligations provided solely by Wells Fargo or one of its
Affiliates, or as to which Wells Fargo or one of its Affiliates serves as the
administrative agent or makes a commitment to lend at least $10,000,000, then,
(i) in the case of (A) or (B) above, the Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be
equal to one-half of the Applicable Prepayment Premium that would otherwise be
applicable, and (ii) in the case of (C) above, the Applicable Prepayment Premium
shall be equal to zero. Agent shall return to Borrower any cash collateral held
by Agent in respect of any Letter of Credit within 30 days after the expiration
or termination of such Letter of Credit, net of the amount of any draws, costs,
expenses or letter of credit fees in respect of such letter of credit.

4.       CREATION OF SECURITY INTEREST.

         4.1      GRANT OF SECURITY INTEREST. Borrower hereby grants to Agent,
for the benefit of the Lender Group, a continuing security interest in all of
its right, title, and interest in all currently existing and hereafter acquired
or arising Personal Property Collateral in order to secure prompt repayment of
any and all of the Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of
the Loan Documents and in order to secure prompt performance by Borrower of each
of its covenants and duties under the Loan Documents. The Agent's Liens in and
to the Personal Property Collateral shall attach to all Personal Property
Collateral without further act on the part of Agent or Borrower. Anything
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary
notwithstanding, except for Permitted Dispositions, Permitted Swaps, and
amendments, modifications or terminations of licenses not prohibited hereunder,
no Obligor has any authority, express or implied, to dispose of any item or
portion

                                      -68-
<PAGE>

of the Collateral. Anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents notwithstanding, to the extent this Agreement or any other Loan
Document purports to grant to Agent a security interest in the FCC Licenses,
Agent shall only have a security interest in such FCC Licenses at such times and
to the extent that a security interest in such FCC Licenses is not prohibited
under applicable law, and Agent agrees that, to the extent prior FCC approval is
required pursuant to the Communications Act of 1934, as amended, or the rules
and regulations of the FCC for (a) the operation and effectiveness of any remedy
hereunder or under any Loan Document, or (b) taking any action that may be taken
by Agent hereunder or under any Loan Document, such remedy or action will be
subject to such prior FCC approval having been obtained by or in favor of Agent;
and Borrower will use, and shall cause each of the other Obligors to (and, by
its execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a joinder thereto, each of the
Guarantors hereby agrees to) use, its reasonable best efforts to obtain any such
approval as promptly as possible after Agent first becomes entitled to exercise
such remedy or action (but only so long as Agent is so entitled); provided,
however, that, the foregoing exclusion shall in no way be construed (a) to apply
if any such prohibition is unenforceable under applicable law, or (b) so as to
limit, impair or otherwise affect Agent's unconditional continuing security
interests in and liens upon any rights or interests of Borrower in or to monies
due or to become due under any such license, or (c) to limit, impair, or
otherwise affect Agent's continuing security interest in and Lien upon any
rights or interests of Borrower in and to any proceeds from the sale, license,
lease, or other disposition of any such FCC License.

         4.2      NEGOTIABLE COLLATERAL. In the event that any Collateral,
including proceeds, is evidenced by or consists of Negotiable Collateral, and if
and to the extent that perfection or priority of Agent's security interest is
dependent on or enhanced by possession, Borrower, promptly upon the request of
Agent, shall, and shall cause each of the other Obligors to (and, by its
execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a joinder thereto, each of the
Guarantors hereby agrees to) endorse and deliver physical possession of such
Negotiable Collateral to Agent.

         4.3      COLLECTION OF ACCOUNTS, GENERAL INTANGIBLES, AND NEGOTIABLE
COLLATERAL. At any time during the continuation of an Event of Default, Agent or
Agent's designee may (a) notify Account Debtors of the Obligors that the
Accounts, chattel paper, or General Intangibles have been assigned to Agent or
that Agent has a security interest therein, or (b) collect the Accounts, chattel
paper, or General Intangibles directly and charge the reasonable collection
costs and expenses to the Loan Account. Borrower agrees that it will, and will
cause each of the other Obligors to (and by execution and delivery of the
Guaranty or a joinder thereto, each of the Guarantors hereby agrees to), hold in
trust for the Lender Group, as the Lender Group's trustee, any Collections that
it receives and, subject to the terms of Section 2.7, immediately will deliver
said Collections to Agent or a Cash Management Bank in their original form as
received by the applicable Obligor.

                                      -69-
<PAGE>

         4.4      DELIVERY OF ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTATION REQUIRED. At any time
upon the request of Agent, Borrower shall, and shall cause each of the other
Obligors to (and by execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a joinder thereto,
each of the Guarantors hereby agrees to), execute and deliver to Agent, any and
all financing statements, original financing statements in lieu of continuation
statements, fixture filings, mortgages, security agreements, pledges,
assignments (including Collateral Assignments of Key Leases and Collateral
Assignments of Tower Leases that are entered into by Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries at or following the closing of any Permitted Acquisition),
endorsements of certificates of title, and all other documents (the "Additional
Documents") that Agent may request in its Permitted Discretion, in form and
substance satisfactory to Agent, to perfect and continue perfected or better
perfect the Agent's Liens in the Collateral (including Liens in joint venture
interests that are acquired in a Permitted Joint Venture Acquisitions) (whether
now owned or hereafter arising or acquired), to create and perfect Liens in
favor of Agent in any Real Property acquired after the Closing Date (in form
substantially similar to the Mortgages executed on or prior to the Closing Date
(subject to variations necessary to take into account local law and practice),
and in order to fully consummate all of the transactions contemplated hereby and
under the other Loan Documents. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable
law, Borrower authorizes Agent to execute any such Additional Documents in
Borrower's name and authorizes Agent to file such executed Additional Documents
in any appropriate filing office. In addition, on such periodic basis as Agent
shall require (but so long as no Event of Default is continuing, not more
frequently than monthly), Borrower shall, and shall cause each of the other
Obligors to (and by execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a joinder thereto,
each of the Guarantors hereby agrees to), (a) provide Agent with a report of all
new patentable, copyrightable, or trademarkable materials acquired or generated
by any of the Obligors during the prior period, (b) cause all patents,
copyrights, and trademarks acquired or generated by that are not already the
subject of a registration with the appropriate filing office (or an application
therefor diligently prosecuted) to be registered with such appropriate filing
office in a manner sufficient to impart constructive notice of the applicable
Obligor's ownership thereof, and (c) cause to be prepared, executed, and
delivered to Agent supplemental schedules to the applicable Loan Documents to
identify such patents, copyrights, and trademarks as being subject to the
security interests created thereunder.

         4.5      POWER OF ATTORNEY. Borrower hereby irrevocably makes,
constitutes, and appoints, and hereby causes each of the other Obligors to make,
constitute and appoint (and by its execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a
joinder thereto, each of the Guarantors hereby makes, constitutes, and
appoints), Agent (and any of Agent's officers, employees, or agents designated
by Agent) as the Obligors' true and lawful attorney, with power to (a) if any
Obligor refuses to, or fails timely to execute and deliver any of the documents
described in Section 4.4, sign the name of such Obligor on any of the documents
described in Section 4.4, (b) at any time that an Event of Default has occurred
and is continuing, sign the Obligors' names on any invoice or bill of lading
relating to the Collateral, drafts against Account Debtors, or notices to
Account Debtors, (c) send requests for verification of

                                      -70-
<PAGE>

Accounts, (d) endorse the Obligors' names on any Collection item that may come
into the Lender Group's possession, (e) at any time that an Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing, make, settle, and adjust all claims under the
Obligors' policies of insurance and make all determinations and decisions with
respect to such policies of insurance, and (f) at any time that an Event of
Default has occurred and is continuing, settle and adjust disputes and claims
respecting the Accounts, chattel paper, or General Intangibles directly with
Account Debtors, for amounts and upon terms that Agent determines to be
reasonable, and Agent may cause to be executed and delivered any documents and
releases that Agent determines to be necessary. The appointment of Agent as the
Obligors' attorney, and each and every one of its rights and powers, being
coupled with an interest, is irrevocable until all of the Obligations have been
fully and finally repaid and performed and the Lender Group's obligations to
extend credit hereunder are terminated.

         4.6      RIGHT TO INSPECT. Agent and each Lender (through any of their
respective officers, employees, or agents) shall have the right, from time to
time hereafter to inspect the Books and to check, test, and appraise the
Collateral in order to verify any or all of the Obligor's financial condition or
the amount, quality, value, condition of, or any other matter relating to, the
Collateral; provided, however, that any such audit or appraisal shall be subject
to the limitations set forth in Section 2.11(c).

         4.7      CONTROL AGREEMENTS. Borrower agrees that, from and after the
Closing Date, it will not, and it will cause the other Obligors not to (and by
its execution and delivery of the Guaranty or a joinder thereto, each of the
Guarantors hereby agrees that it will not), transfer assets out of any
Securities Accounts unless such Securities Account contains assets of $100,000
or less and, if to another securities intermediary, unless each of the
applicable Obligor, Agent, and the substitute securities intermediary have
entered into a Control Agreement. No arrangement contemplated hereby or by any
Control Agreement in respect of any Securities Accounts or other Investment
Property shall be modified by any Obligor without the prior written consent of
Agent. During the continuance of an Event of Default, Agent may notify any
securities intermediary to liquidate the applicable Securities Account or any
related Investment Property maintained or held thereby and remit the proceeds
thereof to the Agent's Account for application against the Obligations.

         4.8      RELEASE OF COLLATERAL. Upon any sale or disposition of any
Collateral that is expressly permitted under this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, upon the request of the applicable Obligor and at such Obligor's
expense, Agent will promptly execute and deliver to such Obligor the proper
instruments or provide written authorization to such Obligor (including
authorization to file any UCC termination statements or amendments, as
applicable) as may be necessary or required to effect the release of Agent's
security interest in such Collateral.

other than the filing of mortgages, financing statements, and fixture filings,
the execution, delivery, and performance by Borrower of this Agreement and the
Loan Documents to which Borrower is a party do not and will not require any

recordable form, and (iii) Liens in letter of credit rights which may not be

party as lessee, and all of such leases are valid, subsisting and in full force
and effect, and no material default by any Obligor exists under any of them.
None of such leases contains any provision restricting the incurrence of
indebtedness by the lessee. Borrower may update Schedule 5.17 from time to time

such update to such Schedule or representation shall be or be deemed to
retroactively effect a correction of any representation and warranty which was

Obligor opens a new DDA (subject to any requirements herein to cause a Control
Agreement to be delivered to Agent with respect to such new DDA); provided that
(a) no such update to such Schedule or representation shall be or be deemed to
retroactively effect a correction of any representation and warranty which was
incorrect or untrue when made or to constitute a waiver of any Default or Event
of Default resulting from the matters disclosed therein, except as consented to
by Agent and Required Lenders in writing, and (b) no update shall be permitted
as to representations and warranties that relate solely to the Closing Date or
the Restatement Closing Date..

         5.19     COMPLETE DISCLOSURE. All factual information (taken as a
whole) furnished by or on behalf of the Obligors in writing to Agent or any

other Loan Documents, or any transaction contemplated herein or therein is, and
all other such factual information (taken as a whole) hereafter furnished by or
on behalf of the Obligors in writing to Agent or any Lender will be, true and
accurate, in all material respects, on the date as of which such information is
dated or certified and not incomplete by omitting to state any fact necessary to
make such information (taken as a whole) not misleading in any material respect
at such time in light of the circumstances under which such information was
provided; provided that for the purposes of the foregoing, the Restatement
Closing Date Projections and any other Projections delivered to Agent are not
intended to be considered factual information. On the Restatement Closing Date,
the Restatement Closing Date Projections represent, and as of the date on which
any other Projections are delivered to Agent, such additional Projections

performance for the periods covered thereby.

complete list of all Indebtedness of the Obligors outstanding immediately prior
to the Restatement Closing Date that is to remain outstanding after the
Restatement Closing Date and such Schedule accurately reflects the aggregate
principal amount of such Indebtedness.

any Federal, state or local governmental body for the ownership, construction,
use and operation of the Stations and other properties now owned and operated by
the Obligors have been validly issued and are in full force and effect, unless
and to the extent the failure to obtain or maintain any such

                                      -77-
<PAGE>

license, permit or similar right could not reasonably be expected to result in a
Material Adverse Change, and the Obligors are in compliance, in all material
respects, with all of the provisions thereof, unless and to the extent the
failure of the Obligors to be in compliance with any such provision thereof
could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Change, and
none of such licenses, permits or consents is the subject of any pending or, to
the best of Borrower's knowledge and belief, threatened proceeding for the
revocation, cancellation, adverse modification, suspension, or non-renewal

modification, suspension, or non-renewal thereof could not reasonably be
expected to result in a Material Adverse Change. Except as set forth on Schedule
5.21, the Obligors have completed construction of their respective
FCC-authorized digital television broadcast stations or shall have requested an
extension from the FCC for any such station for which construction has not been

such license, permit, special temporary authorization, consent, or waiver must
be filed and describes the status of each such pending application.

         5.22     NO DEFAULT IN MAIN STATION LICENSES. No default by any Obligor
exists under any Main Station License to which it is a party and no event has
occurred or exists which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute
a default by any Obligor thereunder and each such Main Station License has been
duly authorized, executed and delivered by each Obligor party thereto and is in

in writing to Agent.

the material terms of such LMA and, to the best of each Obligor's knowledge,
except as described on Schedule 5.23, all other parties to each such LMA are in
compliance with the provisions thereof. Without limiting Borrower's obligation
to comply with this representation and warranty or any other term of this
Agreement, Borrower may update Schedule 5.23 from time to time for the sole
purposes of adding a Permitted LMA to such Schedule and disclosing that a
non-Obligor party to a LMA is not in compliance with such LMA and upon such

non-compliance.

shall contain a clause requiring the insurer to give not less than 30 days prior
written notice to Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any
reason whatsoever.

                           (b)      Borrower shall give Agent prompt notice of

causing a reduction in the Commitments. The foregoing notwithstanding, Borrower
may, at or within 30 days of the date of the receipt of any such payment by
Agent, request that Agent establish an Insurance Proceeds Reserve and,
thereafter, disburse to Borrower such monies from the Insurance Proceeds Reserve
and Agent agrees to disburse such monies (notwithstanding any lack of
Availability caused solely by the creation or maintenance of the Insurance
Proceeds Reserve) solely for the repair, replacement, or restoration of the
asset that has been damaged, destroyed or condemned, if all of the following
conditions are satisfied: (i) no Default or Event of Default is continuing or
would result therefrom, (ii) Borrower has cash, Cash Equivalents, borrowing
availability under Section 2.1 and/or business interruption insurance proceeds
in amounts sufficient, in the reasonable judgment of Agent, to ensure that
Borrower will be able to make payment as and when due of each of its Obligations
that will be payable during the period of such repair, replacement, or
restoration, (iii) Agent is reasonably satisfied that the amount of such cash,
Cash Equivalents, borrowing availability, insurance proceeds, and/or Insurance
Proceeds Reserve will be sufficient fully to repair, replace, or restore the
affected assets, (iv) construction, completion of the repair, replacement, or
restoration of the affected assets is to be completed in accordance with plans,
specifications, and drawings submitted to and approved by Agent, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, (v) all construction and
completion of the repair, replacement, or restoration shall be effected with
reasonable promptness and shall be of a value (the "Replaced Value") that is (A)
at least equal to the replacement value (the "Destroyed Value") of the assets
destroyed or condemned prior to such destruction or condemnation, or (B) of a
value less than the Destroyed Value so long as the difference between the
Destroyed Value and the Replaced Value is applied to the prepayment of the
Obligations without premium, in such order or manner as Agent may elect, and
(vi) all monies paid by Borrower to Agent may be commingled with other funds of
Agent and will not bear interest pending disbursement hereunder. In the event
Agent fails to receive timely such written designation or the conditions set
forth in the following sentence are not satisfied, the payment shall be applied
in the manner set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.

document, indenture, or other writing evidencing or concerning the Key Leases,
the Tower Leases, or the Affiliation Agreements, if the affect of such
amendment, modification, alteration, or change reasonably could be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Change.

                                      -92-
<PAGE>

                           (b)      Notwithstanding the foregoing and
notwithstanding Section 7.14, during each taxable year of Borrower, Borrower, at
its option, may, in order to comply with its obligations hereunder (including
its obligations under Section 6.7 hereof), make one or more cash distributions
to each member in an aggregate amount not to exceed the amount of any Permitted
Taxes (as defined below) for which such member is, or the beneficial owners of
such member are, primarily liable under applicable law after taking into account
the relevant tax attributes of each such member or beneficial owner (each such
cash distribution, a "Tax Distribution"). A Permitted Tax shall mean any tax,
levy, impost, duty, fee, assessment or other charge of whatever nature now or
hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction or by any political subdivision or taxing
authority thereof or therein on, or with respect to income, activities or assets
of, any Obligor for any taxable period (or portion thereof) of such Obligor
ending on or prior to the date of any cash distribution made pursuant to this
Section 7.11(b).

                           (c)      Borrower shall, prior to making any Tax
Distribution, provide Agent with such documentation and other information Agent
may require, in its Permitted Discretion, to confirm the basis for and the
amount of the Tax Distribution.

                           (d)      For the purposes of computing the aggregate
amount of Tax Distributions made by Borrower to any member of Borrower for any
taxable period (or portion thereof), any Tax Withholding Amounts in respect of
payments made or deemed made to such member during such taxable period (or
portion thereof) shall be treated as a Tax Distribution made by Borrower to such
member of Borrower in respect of such taxable period.

                           (e)      If, at the end of any taxable year of
Borrower, it is determined that the aggregate amount distributed by Borrower to
any member of Borrower for such taxable year pursuant to this Section 7.11
exceeded the allowable Tax Distributions to such member for such period, then
such excess amount shall be promptly paid to Borrower by such member, or at the
option of Agent, shall be treated as a Tax Distribution to such member in the
immediately following taxable year for the purposes of determining the Tax
Distributions that can be made to such member in such immediately following
taxable year pursuant to this Section 7.11.

         7.12     ACCOUNTING METHODS. Borrower will not, and will not permit any
of the other Obligors to, modify or change its method of accounting (other than
as may be required to conform to GAAP) or enter into, modify, or terminate any
agreement currently existing, or at any time hereafter entered into with any
third party accounting firm or service bureau for the preparation or storage of

agreeing to provide Agent information regarding the Collateral or any Obligor's
financial condition.

<PAGE>

incur any liabilities (including contingent obligations) for or in connection
with any Investment; provided, however, that the Obligors shall not have
Permitted Investments (other than in the Cash Management Accounts) in Deposit
Accounts or Securities Accounts in excess of $100,000 outstanding at any one
time unless the applicable Obligor and the applicable securities intermediary or
bank have entered into Control Agreements governing such Permitted Investments,
as Agent shall determine in its Permitted Discretion, to perfect (and further
establish) the Agent's Liens in such Permitted Investments.

         7.14     TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. Borrower will not, and will not
permit any of the other Obligors to, except for Permitted Restricted Payments
and except for those transactions described on Schedule 7.14, directly or
indirectly enter into or permit to exist any transaction with any Affiliate of
any Obligor except for transactions that are in the ordinary course of the
Obligors' business, upon fair and reasonable terms, that are fully disclosed to
Agent, and that are no less favorable to such Obligor than would be obtained in
an arm's length transaction with a non-Affiliate.

         7.15     SUSPENSION. Borrower will not, and will not permit any of the
other Obligors to, suspend or go out of a substantial portion of its business

LMA.

providing 30 days prior written notification thereof to Agent and so long as, at
the time of such written notification, Borrower provides any financing
statements or fixture filings necessary to perfect and continue perfected the
Agent's Liens and also provides to Agent a Collateral Access Agreement with
respect to such new location. The Inventory and Equipment shall not at any time
now or hereafter be stored with a bailee, warehouseman, or similar party without
Borrower providing Agent with a Collateral Access Agreement.

         7.19     DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS AND SECURITIES ACCOUNTS. Borrower will not,
and will not permit any of the other Obligors to, establish or maintain any
Deposit Account or Securities Account, unless Agent shall have received a
Control Agreement in respect of such Deposit Account or Securities Account if
such Deposit Account or Securities Account contains assets in excess of
$100,000; provided, however, that, so long as control has not been exercised
pursuant to any such Control Agreement due to the occurrence and continuance of
an Event

                                      -94-

of Default, the Obligors may use the assets in such accounts (and the proceeds
thereof) to the extent not prohibited by this Agreement.

         7.20     MAIN STATION LICENSES. Borrower will not, and will not permit

under or in respect of any of the Main Station Licenses or vary or agree to the
variation in any respect of any of the provisions of any of the Main Station
Licenses or (v) petition, request or take any other legal or administrative
action which seeks, or may reasonably be expected, to rescind, terminate or
suspend any of the Main Station Licenses or amend or modify any of the Main
Station Licenses in a manner that would be materially adverse to Borrower or any
of its Subsidiaries. Borrower, at its expense, will perform and comply, and will
cause each of the other Obligors to perform and comply, in all material respects
with all terms and provisions of each of the Main Station Licenses required to
be performed or complied with by it or them, will maintain, or cause to be
maintained, each of the Main Station Licenses in full force and effect, will
enforce, or will cause to be enforced, each of the Main Station Licenses in
accordance with their respective terms and will take, or cause to be taken, all
such action to that end as from time to time may be reasonably requested by

8.       EVENTS OF DEFAULT.

                                      -98-
<PAGE>

                  Any one or more of the following events shall constitute an
event of default (each, an "Event of Default") under this Agreement:

         8.1      If Borrower fails to pay when due and payable, or when
declared due and payable, all or any portion of the Obligations (whether of
principal, interest (including any interest which, but for the provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, would have accrued on such amounts), fees and charges due the
Lender Group, reimbursement of Lender Group Expenses, or other amounts
constituting Obligations); provided, however, that in the case of Overadvances
that are caused by the charging of interest, fees, or Lender Expenses to the
Loan Account, such event shall not constitute an Event of Default if, within 3
Business Days of its receipt of telephonic notice of such Overadvance, Borrower
eliminates such Overadvance.

         8.2      If (a) Borrower fails or neglects to perform, keep, or
observe, or any other Obligor fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe,
any term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement contained in Sections 6.2
(Collateral Reporting), 6.3 (Financial Statements, Reports, Certificates), 6.9
(Location of Inventory and Equipment), 6.10 (Compliance with Laws), 6.11
(Leases), or 6.18 (Notices) (solely with respect to Main Station Licenses) of
this Agreement and such failure continues for a period of 5 days; (b) Borrower,
or any other Obligor, fails or neglects to perform, keep, or observe any term,
provision, condition, covenant, or agreement contained in Sections 6.1
(Accounting System), 6.5 (Advertising Rebates), 6.6 (Maintenance of Properties),
6.7 (Taxes), 6.14 (Environmental), 6.17 (License Status), 6.18 (Notices) (with
respect to FCC Licenses other than Main Station Licenses), 6.20 (Disclosure
Updates) of this Agreement and such failure continues for a period of 10 days;
or (c) Borrower, or any other Obligor, fails or neglects to perform, keep, or
observe any other term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement contained
in this Agreement, in any of the other Loan Documents (giving effect to any
grace periods, if any, expressly provided for in such Loan Documents); in each
case, other than any such term, provision, condition, covenant, or agreement
that is the subject of another provision of this Section 8, in which event such
other provision of this Section 8 shall govern); provided that, during any
period of time that any such failure or neglect of Borrower, or any other
Obligor, referred to in this paragraph exists, even if such failure or neglect
is not yet an Event of Default by virtue of the existence of a grace period, the
Lenders shall not required during such period to make Advances to Borrower;

         8.3      If any material portion of any Obligor's assets is attached,
seized, subjected to a writ or distress warrant, levied upon, or comes into the
possession of any third Person (excluding any securities intermediary or bank
that has entered into a Control Agreement) and the same is not discharged before
the earlier of 30 days after the date it first arises or 5 days prior to the
date on which such property or asset is subject to forfeiture;

         8.4      If an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced by any of the
Obligors;

         8.5      If an Insolvency Proceeding is commenced against any Obligor,
and any of the following events occur: (a) such Obligor consents to the
institution of such Insolvency

                                      -99-
<PAGE>

Proceeding against it, (b) the petition commencing the Insolvency Proceeding is
not timely controverted, (c) the petition commencing the Insolvency Proceeding
is not dismissed within 60 calendar days of the date of the filing thereof;
provided, however, that, during the pendency of such period, Agent (including
any successor agent) and each other member of the Lender Group shall be relieved
of their obligations to extend credit hereunder, (d) an interim trustee is
appointed to take possession of all or any substantial portion of the properties
or assets of, or to operate all or any substantial portion of the business of,
the Obligors, or (e) an order for relief shall have been entered therein;

         8.6      If any Obligor is enjoined, restrained, or in any way
prevented by court order from continuing to conduct all or any material part of
the business affairs of the Obligors, taken as a whole;

         8.7      If (a) a notice of Lien is filed of record with respect to any
of Borrower's or any of its Subsidiaries' assets by the United States, or any
department, agency, or instrumentality thereof (a "Federal Lien"), or by any
state, county, municipal, or governmental agency and such state, county,
municipal, or governmental agency Lien has priority over the Liens of Agent in
and to the Collateral or any portion thereof (a "Non-Federal Priority Lien"); or
(b) a notice of Lien is filed of record with respect to Borrower's or any of its
Subsidiaries' assets by any state, county, municipal, or governmental agency
that is not a Non-Federal Priority Lien (a "Non-Federal Non-Priority Lien");
provided, however, that, if the aggregate amount claimed with respect to any
such Non-Federal Non-Priority Liens, or the combination thereof, is less than
$250,000, an Event of Default shall not occur under this subsection if the
claims that are the subject of such Liens are the subject of Permitted Protests
and if the Liens are released, discharged, or bonded against within 30 days of
each such Lien first being filed of record or, if earlier, at least 5 days prior
to the date on which assets that are subject to such Liens are subject to being
sold or forfeited and, in any such case, Agent shall have the absolute right to
establish and maintain a reserve against the Borrowing Base and the Maximum
Revolver Amount in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of the underlying
claims (determined by Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, and irrespective of
any Permitted Protests with respect thereto and including any penalties or
interest that are estimated by Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, to arise in
connection therewith);

         8.8      If a judgment or other claim involving $250,000, or more,
becomes a Lien or encumbrance upon any material portion of any Obligor's assets
and such judgment or claim is not discharged before the earlier of 30 days after
the date it first arises or 5 days prior to the date on which such property or
asset is subject to forfeiture;

         8.9      If Borrower or any of the other Obligors causes a default
under any material agreement to which Borrower or any of the other Obligors is a
party, the termination of which could reasonably be expected to result in a
material adverse effect on any of the Stations, and such default results in the
termination of such agreement, or the refusal to renew such agreement pursuant
to an automatic renewal right therein;

                                     -100-
<PAGE>

         8.10     If any Obligor makes any payment on account of Indebtedness
that has been contractually subordinated in right of payment to the payment of
the Obligations, except to the extent such payment is permitted by the terms of
the subordination provisions applicable to such Indebtedness;

         8.11     If any material misstatement or misrepresentation exists now
or hereafter in any warranty, representation, statement, or Record made (as and
when made) to the Lender Group by Borrower, its Subsidiaries, or any officer,
management employee, or director of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries;

         8.12     If the obligation of any Guarantor under the Guaranty is
limited (other than pursuant to its solvency savings clause) or terminated by
declaration of a court of competent jurisdiction or by such Guarantor
thereunder;

         8.13     If this Agreement or any other Loan Document that purports to
create a Lien, shall, for any reason (other than negligence on the part of
Agent), fail or cease to create a valid and perfected and, except to the extent
permitted by the terms hereof or thereof, first priority Lien on or security
interest in the Collateral (other than Collateral having an aggregate value of
$10,000, or less) covered hereby or thereby and such event, if not occasioned by
an Obligor, continues for a period of 5 days;

         8.14     Any material provision of any Loan Document shall at any time
for any reason be declared to be null and void, or the validity or
enforceability of any Loan Document shall be contested by any Obligor, or a
proceeding shall be commenced by any Obligor, or by any Governmental Authority
having jurisdiction over any Obligor, seeking to establish the invalidity or
unenforceability thereof, or any Obligor shall deny in writing that such Obligor
has any liability or obligation purported to be created under any Loan Document
and any such event, if not occasioned by an Obligor, continues for a period of 5
days;

         8.15     If there is a default under or with respect to the
Intermediate Notes, the Intermediate Indenture, or any other evidence of
Indebtedness of Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (other than to the Lender
Group hereunder) for borrowed money which, when aggregated with all other such
defaults of Borrower and its Subsidiaries or any of them, equals or exceeds
$500,000, if the effect of such default is to permit the holder of such
Indebtedness to accelerate the maturity of such Indebtedness;

         8.16     If the transmission of the broadcast signal(s) of any
Station(s) shall be interrupted or if the operating power or coverage of any
Mature Station(s) shall be materially reduced below the power and coverage to be
obtained by such Station(s)' facilities as reflected on the FCC License(s) for
such Station(s), at any time for more than 48 consecutive hours on 2 occasions,
whether or not consecutive, in any 12 month period, unless such interruption
occurs by reason of force majeure, or (ii) in the event of force majeure, 14
days, in each case, unless (and only so long as) all damages, liabilities and
other effects of such

                                     -101-
<PAGE>

interruption of service are fully covered (other than any reasonable deductible)
by business interruption insurance; or

         8.17     If any Obligor fails to keep in force, suffers the termination
or revocation of, terminates, forfeits or suffers a materially adverse
modification to, (a) any Main Station License at any time held by such Obligor
and necessary to the operation of any Station owned by any Obligor, or (b) any
one or more licenses, the aggregate result of which deprives any Station owned
by any Obligor of the ability to reach the entire market area of such Station (a
"Market Area Loss") and such Market Area Loss results in a Material Adverse
Change.

9.       THE LENDER GROUP'S RIGHTS AND REMEDIES.

         9.1      RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Upon the occurrence, and during the
continuation, of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders (at their election
but without notice of their election and without demand) may authorize and
instruct Agent to do any one or more of the following on behalf of the Lender
Group (and Agent, acting upon the instructions of the Required Lenders, shall do
the same on behalf of the Lender Group), all of which are authorized by
Borrower:

                           (a)      Declare all Obligations, whether evidenced
by this Agreement, by any of the other Loan Documents, or otherwise, immediately
due and payable;

                           (b)      Cease advancing money or extending credit to
or for the benefit of Borrower under this Agreement, under any of the Loan
Documents, or under any other agreement between Borrower and the Lender Group;

                           (c)      Terminate this Agreement and any of the
other Loan Documents as to any future liability or obligation of the Lender
Group, but without affecting any of the Agent's Liens in the Collateral and
without affecting the Obligations;

                           (d)      Settle or adjust disputes and claims
directly with Account Debtors for amounts and upon terms which Agent considers
advisable, and in such cases, Agent will credit Borrower's Loan Account with
only the net amounts received by Agent in payment of such disputed Accounts
after deducting all Lender Group Expenses incurred or expended in connection
therewith;

                           (e)      Borrower agrees that, upon the occurrence of
and during the continuance of an Event of Default and at Agent's request,
Borrower will, and will cause each of the other Obligors to, immediately file,
or cause to be filed, such applications for approval, and shall take all other
and further actions required by Agent to obtain such approvals or consents, of
regulatory authorities as are necessary to transfer ownership and control to
Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, of the FCC Licenses held by any Obligor,
or its interest in any Person holding any such FCC License. To enforce the
provisions of this

                                     -102-
<PAGE>

Section 9.1(e), Agent is empowered to request the appointment of a receiver from
any court of competent jurisdiction. Such receiver shall be instructed to seek
from the FCC its consent to an involuntary transfer of control of any FCC
License for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom control will
ultimately be transferred. Borrower hereby agrees to authorize, and to cause
each of the other Obligors to authorize, such an involuntary transfer of control
upon the request of the receiver so appointed and, if Borrower shall refuse to
authorize or cause any of the other Obligors to authorize the transfer, its
approval may be required by the court. Upon the occurrence and continuance of an
Event of Default, Borrower shall further use its best efforts to assist in
obtaining approval of the FCC, if required, for any action or transactions
contemplated by this Agreement or the Loan Documents, including preparation,
execution and filing with the FCC of the assignor's or transferor's portion of
any application or applications for the FCC's consent to the assignment of any
FCC License or transfer of control necessary or appropriate under the FCC's
rules and regulations for approval of the transfer or assignment of any portion
of the Collateral, together with any FCC License or other authorization.
Borrower acknowledges that the assignment or transfer of FCC Licenses is
integral to Agent's realization of the value of the Collateral, that there is no
adequate remedy at law for failure by Borrower to comply with the provisions of
this Section 9.1(e) and that such failure would not be adequately compensable in
damages, and therefore agrees that the agreements contained in this Section
9.1(e) may be specifically enforced.

                           (f)      Without notice to or demand upon Borrower or
any other Obligor, make such payments and do such acts as Agent considers
necessary or reasonable to protect its security interests in the Collateral.
Borrower agrees to assemble the Personal Property Collateral if Agent so
requires, and to make the Personal Property Collateral available to Agent at a
place that Agent may designate which is reasonably convenient to both parties.
Borrower authorizes Agent to enter the premises where the Personal Property
Collateral is located, to take and maintain possession of the Personal Property
Collateral, or any part of it, and to pay, purchase, contest, or compromise any
Lien that in Agent's determination appears to conflict with the Agent's Liens
and to pay all expenses incurred in connection therewith and to charge
Borrower's Loan Account therefor. With respect to any of the Obligors' owned or
leased premises, Borrower hereby grants Agent a license to enter into possession
of such premises and to occupy the same, without charge, in order to exercise
any of the Lender Group's rights or remedies provided herein, at law, in equity,
or otherwise;

                           (g)      Without notice to Borrower (such notice
being expressly waived), and without constituting a retention of any collateral
in satisfaction of an obligation (within the meaning of the Code), set off and
apply to the Obligations any and all (i) balances and deposits of Borrower held
by the Lender Group (including any amounts received in the Cash Management
Accounts), or (ii) Indebtedness at any time owing to or for the credit or the
account of Borrower held by the Lender Group;

                                     -103-
<PAGE>

                           (h)      Hold, as cash collateral, any and all
balances and deposits of Borrower held by the Lender Group, and any amounts
received in the Cash Management Accounts, to secure the full and final repayment
of all of the Obligations;

                           (i)      Ship, reclaim, recover, store, finish,
maintain, repair, prepare for sale, advertise for sale, and sell (in the manner
provided for herein) the Personal Property Collateral. Borrower hereby grants to
Agent a license or other right to use, without charge, for use only after the
occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, Borrower's labels,
patents, copyrights, trade secrets, trade names, trademarks, service marks, and
advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, as it pertains to the
Personal Property Collateral, in completing production of, advertising for sale,
and selling any Personal Property Collateral;

                           (j)      Sell the Personal Property Collateral at
either a public or private sale, or both, by way of one or more contracts or
transactions, for cash or on terms, in such manner and at such places (including
Borrower's premises) as Agent determines is commercially reasonable. It is not
necessary that the Personal Property Collateral be present at any such sale;

                           (k)      Agent shall give notice of the disposition
of the Personal Property Collateral as follows:

                           (i)      Agent shall give Borrower a notice in
                  writing of the time and place of public sale, or, if the sale
                  is a private sale or some other disposition other than a
                  public sale is to be made of the Personal Property Collateral,
                  the time on or after which the private sale or other
                  disposition is to be made; and

                           (ii)     The notice shall be personally delivered or
                  mailed, postage prepaid, to Borrower as provided in Section
                  12, at least 15 days before the earliest time of disposition
                  set forth in the notice; no notice needs to be given prior to
                  the disposition of any portion of the Personal Property
                  Collateral that is perishable or threatens to decline speedily
                  in value or that is of a type customarily sold on a recognized
                  market;

                           (l)      Agent, on behalf of the Lender Group, may
credit bid and purchase at any public sale; and

                           (m)      Agent may seek the appointment of a receiver
or keeper to take possession of all or any portion of the Collateral or to
operate same and, to the maximum extent permitted by law, may, in accordance
with applicable FCC rules or regulations, seek the appointment of such a
receiver without the requirement of prior notice or a hearing;

                           (n)      The Lender Group shall have all other rights
and remedies available at law or in equity or pursuant to any other Loan
Document; and

                                     -104-
<PAGE>

                           (o)      Any deficiency that exists after disposition
of the Personal Property Collateral as provided above will be paid immediately
by Borrower. Any excess will be promptly returned, without interest and subject
to the rights of third Persons, by Agent to Borrower.

         9.2      REMEDIES CUMULATIVE. The rights and remedies of the Lender
Group under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and all other agreements
shall be cumulative. The Lender Group shall have all other rights and remedies
not inconsistent herewith as provided under the Code, by law, or in equity. No
exercise by the Lender Group of one right or remedy shall be deemed an election,
and no waiver by the Lender Group of any Event of Default shall be deemed a
continuing waiver. No delay by the Lender Group shall constitute a waiver,
election, or acquiescence by it.

10.      TAXES AND EXPENSES.

                  If Borrower fails to pay any monies (whether taxes,
assessments, insurance premiums, or, in the case of leased properties or assets,
rents or other amounts payable under such leases) due to third Persons, or fails
to make any deposits or furnish any required proof of payment or deposit, all as
required under the terms of this Agreement, then, Agent, in its sole discretion
and without prior notice to Borrower, may do any or all of the following: (a)
make payment of the same or any part thereof, (b) set up such reserves in
Borrower's Loan Account as Agent deems necessary to protect the Lender Group
from the exposure created by such failure, or (c) in the case of the failure to
comply with Section 6.8 hereof, obtain and maintain insurance policies of the
type described in Section 6.8 and take any action with respect to such policies
as Agent deems prudent. Any such amounts paid by Agent shall constitute Lender
Group Expenses and any such payments shall not constitute an agreement by the
Lender Group to make similar payments in the future or a waiver by the Lender
Group of any Event of Default under this Agreement. Agent need not inquire as
to, or contest the validity of, any such expense, tax, or Lien and the receipt
of the usual official notice for the payment thereof shall be conclusive
evidence that the same was validly due and owing.

11.      WAIVERS; INDEMNIFICATION.

         11.1     DEMAND; PROTEST; ETC.Borrower waives demand, protest, notice
of protest, notice of default or dishonor, notice of payment and nonpayment,
nonpayment at maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension, or renewal
of documents, instruments, chattel paper, and guarantees at any time held by the
Lender Group on which Borrower may in any way be liable.

         11.2     THE LENDER GROUP'S LIABILITY FOR COLLATERAL. Borrower hereby
agrees that: (a) so long as Agent complies with its obligations, if any, under
the Code, the Lender Group shall not in any way or manner be liable or
responsible for: (i) the safekeeping of the Collateral, (ii) any loss or damage
thereto occurring or arising in any manner or fashion from any cause, (iii) any
diminution in the value thereof, or (iv) any act or default of any carrier,

                                     -105-
<PAGE>

warehouseman, bailee, forwarding agency, or other Person, and (b) all risk of
loss, damage, or destruction of the Collateral shall be borne by Borrower.

         11.3     INDEMNIFICATION.

                           (a)      Borrower shall pay, indemnify, defend, and
hold the Agent-Related Persons, the Lender-Related Persons with respect to each
Lender, each Participant, and each of their respective officers, directors,
employees, agents, and attorneys-in-fact (each, an "Indemnified Person")
harmless (to the fullest extent permitted by law) from and against any and all
claims, demands, suits, actions, investigations, proceedings, and damages, and
all reasonable attorneys fees and disbursements and other costs and expenses
actually incurred in connection therewith (as and when they are incurred and
irrespective of whether suit is brought), at any time asserted against, imposed
upon, or incurred by any of them (a) in connection with or as a result of or
related to the review, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance, or
administration of this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents, or the
transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, and (b) with respect to any
investigation, litigation, or proceeding related to this Agreement, any other
Loan Document, or the use of the proceeds of the credit provided hereunder
(irrespective of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto), or any act,
omission, event, or circumstance in any manner related thereto (all the
foregoing, collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities"). The foregoing to the
contrary notwithstanding, (a) Borrower shall have no obligation to any
Indemnified Person under this Section 11.3 with respect to any Indemnified
Liability that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have
resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified
Person, and (b) Borrower shall have no obligation to any Assignee or
Participant, or its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, or
attorneys-in-fact with respect to any attorneys fees or disbursements and other
costs and expenses incurred by any of them in connection with or as a result of
or related to the review, execution, and delivery of this Agreement or the
Assignment and Acceptance or participation agreement pursuant to which they
become a party hereto or Participant herein. This provision shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the repayment of the Obligations. If any
Indemnified Person makes any payment to any other Indemnified Person with
respect to an Indemnified Liability as to which Borrower was required to
indemnify the Indemnified Person receiving such payment, the Indemnified Person
making such payment is entitled to be indemnified and reimbursed by Borrower
with respect thereto.

                           (b)      NO INDEMNIFIED PERSON SHALL BE RESPONSIBLE
OR LIABLE TO ANY OTHER PARTY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENT, ANY SUCCESSOR, ASSIGNEE OR
THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY OF SUCH PERSON OR ANY OTHER PERSON ASSERTING CLAIMS
DERIVATIVELY THROUGH SUCH PARTY, FOR INDIRECT, PUNITIVE, EXEMPLARY OR
CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES WHICH MAY BE ALLEGED AS A RESULT OF CREDIT HAVING BEEN
EXTENDED, SUSPENDED OR TERMINATED UNDER

                                     -106-

DOCUMENT IN RESPECT OF SUCH OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT), THE CONSTRUCTION,

14.      ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS; SUCCESSORS.

         14.1     ASSIGNMENTS AND PARTICIPATIONS.

                           (a)      Any Lender may, with the written consent of
Agent and Borrower (provided that (i) no written consent of Agent or Borrower
shall be required in connection with any assignment and delegation by a Lender
to an Eligible Transferee, (ii) no written consent of Borrower shall be required
in connection with any assignment or delegation if an Event of Default shall
have occurred and be continuing, and (iii) no assignment and delegation shall be
made, without the prior written consent of Borrower, to any Person that is
organized in or under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States
or any state or other political subdivision thereof or is otherwise not a United
States person as defined in the IRC (a "Foreign Person") if payments to such
Person would require Borrower to pay any Taxes or any additional amounts
pursuant to Section 16.11(e)), assign and delegate to one or more assignees
(each an "Assignee") all, or any ratable part of all, of the Obligations, the
Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder and
under the other Loan Documents, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000; provided,
however, that Borrower and Agent may continue to deal solely and directly with
such Lender in connection with the interest so assigned to an Assignee until (i)
written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions,
addresses, and related information with respect to the Assignee, have been given
to Borrower and Agent by such Lender and the Assignee, (ii) such Lender and its
Assignee have delivered to Borrower and Agent an Assignment and Acceptance in
form and substance satisfactory to Agent, and (iii) the assignor Lender or
Assignee has paid to Agent for Agent's separate account a processing fee in the
amount of $5,000. Anything contained herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the
consent of Agent shall not be required (and payment of any fees shall not be
required) if such assignment is in connection with any merger, consolidation,
sale, transfer, or other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the
business or loan portfolio of such Lender.

                           (b)      From and after the date that Agent notifies
the assignor Lender (with a copy to Borrower) that it has received an executed
Assignment and Acceptance and payment of the above-referenced processing fee,
(i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such
Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender
under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that
rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been
assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights
(except with respect to Section 11.3 hereof) and be released from its
obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and
Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights
and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, such

                                     -109-
<PAGE>

Lender shall cease to be a party hereto and thereto), and such assignment shall
affect a novation between Borrower and the Assignee.

                           (c)      By executing and delivering an Assignment
and Acceptance, the assigning Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder
confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows:
(1) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assigning
Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with
respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in
connection with this Agreement or the execution, legality, validity,
enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto, (2) such assigning Lender makes no
representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the
financial condition of Borrower or the performance or observance by Borrower of
any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished
pursuant hereto, (3) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this
Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed
appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such
Assignment and Acceptance, (4) such Assignee will, independently and without
reliance upon Agent, such assigning Lender or any other Lender, and based on
such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,
continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under
this Agreement, (5) such Assignee appoints and authorizes Agent to take such
actions and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to
Agent, by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably
incidental thereto, and (6) such Assignee agrees that it will perform all of the
obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by
it as a Lender.

                           (d)      Immediately upon each Assignee's making its
processing fee payment under the Assignment and Acceptance and receipt and
acknowledgment by Agent of such fully executed Assignment and Acceptance, this
Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent,
necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment
of the Commitments arising therefrom. The Commitment allocated to each Assignee
shall reduce such Commitments of the assigning Lender pro tanto.

                           (e)      Any Lender may at any time, with the written
consent of Agent, sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions,
or other Persons not Affiliates of such Lender (a "Participant") participating
or other beneficial interests ("Participating Interests") in its Obligations,
the Commitment, and the other rights and interests of that Lender (the
"Originating Lender") hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (provided
that no written consent of Agent shall be required in connection with any sale
of any such Participating Interests by a Lender to an Eligible Transferee);
provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender shall remain a "Lender" for
all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the Participant
receiving the Participating Interest in the Obligations, the Commitments, and
the other rights and interests of the Originating Lender hereunder

                                     -110-
<PAGE>

shall not constitute a "Lender" hereunder or under the other Loan Documents and
the Originating Lender's obligations under this Agreement shall remain
unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the
performance of such obligations, (iii) Borrower, Agent, and the Lenders shall
continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection
with the Originating Lender's rights and obligations under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any
Participating Interest under which the Participant has the right to approve any
amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, except to the extent such amendment to, or consent or
waiver with respect to this Agreement or of any other Loan Document would (A)
extend the final maturity date of the Obligations hereunder in which such
Participant is participating, (B) reduce the interest rate applicable to the
Obligations hereunder in which such Participant is participating, (C) release
all or a material portion of the Collateral or guaranties (except to the extent
expressly provided herein or in any of the Loan Documents) supporting the
Obligations hereunder in which such Participant has a Participating Interest,
(D) postpone the payment of, or reduce the amount of, the interest or fees
payable to such Participant through such Lender, or (E) reduce the amount or due
dates of scheduled principal repayments or prepayments or premiums, and (v) all
amounts payable by Borrower under any of the Loan Documents (including, without
limitation, under Section 16.11) shall be determined as if such Lender had not
sold such participation, except that, if amounts outstanding under this
Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have been declared or shall have become
due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant
shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its Participating
Interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent as if the
amount of its Participating Interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under
this Agreement. The rights of any Participant only shall be derivative through
the Originating Lender with whom such Participant participates and no
Participant shall have any rights under this Agreement or the other Loan
Documents or any direct rights as to the other Lenders, Agent, Borrower, the
Collections, the Collateral, or otherwise in respect of the Obligations. No
Participant shall have the right to participate directly in the making of
decisions by the Lenders among themselves.

                           (f)      In connection with any such assignment or
Participating Interest or proposed assignment or Participating Interest, a
Lender may disclose all documents and information which it now or hereafter may
have relating to Borrower or Borrower's business, so long as such Lender has
first secured a customary confidentiality agreement from such proposed assignee
or Participant.

                           (g)      Any other provision in this Agreement
notwithstanding, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or
pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement in
favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal
Reserve Bank or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR Section 203.14, and such Federal
Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner
permitted under applicable law.

                                     -111-
<PAGE>

         14.2     SUCCESSORS. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit
of the respective successors and permitted assigns of each of the parties;
provided, however, that Borrower and ACME Parent may not assign this Agreement
or any rights or duties hereunder without the Lenders' prior written consent and
any prohibited assignment shall be absolutely void ab initio. No consent to
assignment by the Lenders shall release Borrower from its Obligations. A Lender
may assign this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and its rights and duties
hereunder and thereunder pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof and, except as
expressly required pursuant to Section 14.1 hereof, no consent or approval by
Borrower or ACME Parent is required in connection with any such assignment.

15.      AMENDMENTS; WAIVERS.

         15.1     AMENDMENTS AND WAIVERS. No amendment or waiver of any
provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and no consent with
respect to any departure by Borrower therefrom, shall be effective unless the
same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or by Agent at the
written request of the Required Lenders) and Borrower and then any such waiver
or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific
purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such waiver, amendment, or
consent shall, unless in writing and signed by all of the Lenders affected
thereby and Borrower, do any of the following:

                           (a)      increase or extend any Commitment of any
Lender,

<PAGE>

remedies as a secured creditor, release the Obligors from any obligation for the
payment of money, or

                           (k)      amend any of the provisions of Section 16.

unless in writing and signed by Agent, Issuing Lender, or Swing Lender, as
applicable, affect the rights or duties of Agent, Issuing Lender, or Swing
Lender, as applicable, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The
foregoing notwithstanding, any amendment, modification, waiver, consent,
termination, or release of, or with respect to, any provision of this Agreement
or any other Loan Document that relates only to the relationship of the Lender
Group among themselves, and that does not affect the rights or obligations of
Borrower, shall not require consent by or the agreement of Borrower.

         15.2     REPLACEMENT OF HOLDOUT LENDER.

                           (a)      If any action to be taken by the Lender
Group or Agent hereunder requires the unanimous consent, authorization, or
agreement of all Lenders ("Subject Action"), and a Lender ("Holdout Lender")
fails to give its consent, authorization, or agreement, then Agent or Borrower,
upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice to the Holdout Lender,
may permanently replace the Holdout Lender with one or more substitute Lenders
(each, a "Replacement Lender"), and the Holdout Lender shall have no right to
refuse to be replaced hereunder; provided, however, that in the case of any
Holdout Lender replaced by Borrower, Subject Action must (i) have been requested
in good faith and not for the purpose of avoiding any premium or penalty of any
kind whatsoever, and (ii) have been approved by the Required Lenders; and,
provided further, that Borrower may not permanently replace WFF as a Lender so
long as WFF is also Agent. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender shall
specify an effective date for such replacement, which date shall not be later
than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, Borrower shall have the right to permanently replace any Holdout
Lender at any time (including Agent) so long as any and all applicable premiums
or penalties are paid by Borrower to such Holdout Lender in connection
therewith. Borrower shall be entitled to rely on any written representation by
Agent that the unanimous consent, authorization, or agreement of all Lenders has
been obtained with respect to any Subject Action.

                           (b)      Prior to the effective date of such
replacement, the Holdout Lender and each Replacement Lender shall execute and
deliver an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, subject only to the Holdout
Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations (including an
assumption of its Pro Rata Share of the Risk Participation Liability) without
any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever. If the Holdout Lender shall
refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and

                                     -113-
<PAGE>

Acceptance Agreement prior to the effective date of such replacement, the
Holdout Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment
and Acceptance Agreement. The replacement of any Holdout Lender shall be made in
accordance with the terms of Section 14.1. Until such time as the Replacement
Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the
other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender shall remain obligated to make the Holdout
Lender's Pro Rata Share of Advances and to purchase a participation in each
Letter of Credit, in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the Risk
Participation Liability of such Letter of Credit.

         15.3     NO WAIVERS; CUMULATIVE REMEDIES. No failure by Agent or any
Lender to exercise any right, remedy, or option under this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or delay by Agent or any Lender in exercising the same,
will operate as a waiver thereof. No waiver by Agent or any Lender will be
effective unless it is in writing, and then only to the extent specifically
stated. No waiver by Agent or any Lender on any occasion shall affect or
diminish Agent's and each Lender's rights thereafter to require strict
performance by Borrower of any provision of this Agreement. Agent's and each
Lender's rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents will be
cumulative and not exclusive of any other right or remedy that Agent or any
Lender may have.

16.      AGENT; THE LENDER GROUP.

         16.1     APPOINTMENT AND AUTHORIZATION OF AGENT. Each Lender hereby
designates and appoints WFF as its representative under this Agreement and the
other Loan Documents and each Lender hereby irrevocably authorizes Agent to take
such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other
Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are
expressly delegated to Agent by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan
Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Agent
agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 16.
Except for the provisions of Sections 16.10, 16.11, 16.12, and 16.17(d) below,
the provisions of this Section 16 are solely for the benefit of Agent, and the
Lenders, and Borrower shall have no rights as a third party beneficiary of any
of the provisions contained herein. Any provision to the contrary contained
elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document notwithstanding, Agent
shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth
herein, nor shall Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship
with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties,
obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan
Document or otherwise exist against Agent; it being expressly understood and
agreed that the use of the word "Agent" is for convenience only, that WFF is
merely the representative of the Lenders, and only has the contractual duties
set forth herein. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement,
Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or
refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from
taking any actions that Agent expressly is entitled to take or assert under or
pursuant to this Agreement

                                     -114-
<PAGE>

and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
or of any other provision of the Loan Documents that provides rights or powers
to Agent, Lenders agree that Agent shall have the right to exercise the
following powers as long as this Agreement remains in effect: (a) maintain, in
accordance with its customary business practices, ledgers and records reflecting
the status of the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections, and related
matters, (b) execute or file any and all financing or similar statements or
notices, amendments, renewals, supplements, documents, instruments, proofs of
claim, notices and other written agreements with respect to the Loan Documents,
(c) make Advances, for itself or on behalf of Lenders as provided in the Loan
Documents, (d) exclusively receive, apply, and distribute the proceeds of the
Collections as provided in the Loan Documents, (e) open and maintain such bank
accounts and cash management arrangements as Agent deems necessary and
appropriate in accordance with the Loan Documents for the foregoing purposes
with respect to the Collateral and the Collections, (f) perform, exercise, and
enforce any and all other rights and remedies of the Lender Group with respect
to Borrower, the Obligations, the Collateral, the Collections, or otherwise
related to any of same as provided in the Loan Documents, and (g) incur and pay
such Lender Group Expenses as Agent may deem necessary or appropriate for the
performance and fulfillment of its functions and powers pursuant to the Loan
Documents.

         16.2     DELEGATION OF DUTIES. Agent may execute any of its duties
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees
or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all
matters pertaining to such duties. Agent shall not be responsible for the
negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney-in-fact that it selects as
long as such selection was made without gross negligence or willful misconduct.

         16.3     LIABILITY OF AGENT. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall
(i) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under
or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the
transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence or willful
misconduct), or (ii) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any
recital, statement, representation or warranty made by Borrower or any
Subsidiary or Affiliate of Borrower, or any officer or director thereof,
contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any
certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in,
or received by Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other
Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or
sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or for any failure of
Borrower or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations
hereunder or thereunder. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation
to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of
any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any
other Loan Document, or to inspect the Books or properties of Borrower or the
books or records or properties of any of Borrower's Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

                                     -115-
<PAGE>

         16.4     RELIANCE BY AGENT. Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall
be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent,
certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message,
statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and
correct and to have been signed, sent, or made by the proper Person or Persons,
and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to Borrower
or counsel to any Lender), independent accountants and other experts selected by
Agent. Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless Agent shall first receive
such advice or concurrence of the Lenders as it deems appropriate and until such
instructions are received, Agent shall act, or refrain from acting, as it deems
advisable. If Agent so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its reasonable
satisfaction by Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be
incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Agent
shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting,
under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or
consent of the Lenders and such request and any action taken or failure to act
pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

         16.5     NOTICE OF DEFAULT OR EVENT OF DEFAULT. Agent shall not be
deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of
Default, except with respect to defaults in the payment of principal, interest,
fees, and expenses required to be paid to Agent for the account of the Lenders,
except with respect to Events of Default of which Agent has actual knowledge,
unless Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or Borrower
referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default, and
stating that such notice is a "notice of default." Agent promptly will notify
the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice or of any Event of Default of
which Agent has actual knowledge. If any Lender obtains actual knowledge of any
Event of Default, such Lender promptly shall notify the other Lenders and Agent
of such Event of Default. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for giving any
notices to its Participants, if any. Subject to Section 16.4, Agent shall take
such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested
by the Required Lenders in accordance with Section 9; provided, however, that
unless and until Agent has received any such request, Agent may (but shall not
be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with
respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

         16.6     CREDIT DECISION. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the
Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no
act by Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of Borrower
and its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any
representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each
Lender represents to Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon
any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has
deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the
business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and
creditworthiness of Borrower and any other Person (other than the Lender Group)
party to a Loan Document, and all applicable

                                     -116-
<PAGE>

bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made
its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to Borrower.
Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance
upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it
shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis,
appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary
to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial
and other condition and creditworthiness of Borrower and any other Person (other
than the Lender Group) party to a Loan Document. Except for notices, reports,
and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by
Agent, Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender
with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects,
operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of
Borrower and any other Person party to a Loan Document that may come into the
possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

         16.7     COSTS AND EXPENSES; INDEMNIFICATION. Agent may incur and pay
Lender Group Expenses to the extent Agent reasonably deems necessary or
appropriate for the performance and fulfillment of its functions, powers, and
obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents, including court costs, reasonable
attorneys fees and expenses, costs of collection by outside collection agencies
and auctioneer fees and costs of security guards or insurance premiums paid to
maintain the Collateral, whether or not Borrower is obligated to reimburse Agent
or Lenders for such expenses pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise. Agent is
authorized and directed to deduct and retain sufficient amounts from proceeds of
Collections received by Agent to reimburse Agent for such out-of-pocket costs
and expenses prior to the distribution of any amounts to Lenders. In the event
Agent is not reimbursed for such costs and expenses from proceeds of Collections
received by Agent, each Lender hereby agrees that it is and shall be obligated
to pay to or reimburse Agent for the amount of such Lender's Pro Rata Share
thereof. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated,
the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent
not reimbursed by or on behalf of Borrower and without limiting the obligation
of Borrower to do so), according to their Pro Rata Shares, from and against any
and all Indemnified Liabilities; provided, however, that no Lender shall be
liable for the payment to any Agent-Related Person of any portion of such
Indemnified Liabilities resulting solely from such Person's gross negligence or
willful misconduct nor shall any Lender be liable for the obligations of any
Defaulting Lender in failing to make an Advance or other extension of credit
hereunder. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall reimburse
Agent upon demand for such Lender's ratable share of any costs or out-of-pocket
expenses (including attorneys fees and expenses) incurred by Agent in connection
with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification,
amendment, or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or
otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under,
this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or
referred to herein, to the extent that Agent is not reimbursed

                                     -117-
<PAGE>

for such expenses by or on behalf of Borrower. The undertaking in this Section
shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or
replacement of Agent.

         16.8     AGENT IN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. WFF and its Affiliates may make
loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from,
acquire equity interests in, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust,
financial advisory, underwriting, or other business with Borrower and its
Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person (other than the Lender Group)
party to any Loan Documents as though WFF were not Agent hereunder, and, in each
case, without notice to or consent of the other members of the Lender Group. The
other members of the Lender Group acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities,
WFF or its Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its
Affiliates and any other Person (other than the Lender Group) party to any Loan
Documents that is subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or
such other Person and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the
Lenders, and the Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the
absence of a waiver of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver Agent will
use its reasonable best efforts to obtain), Agent shall not be under any
obligation to provide such information to them. The terms "Lender" and "Lenders"
include WFF in its individual capacity.

         16.9     SUCCESSOR AGENT. Agent may resign as Agent upon 45 days notice
to the Lenders. If Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders
shall appoint a successor Agent for the Lenders. A successor Agent must be an
Eligible Transferee. If no successor Agent is appointed prior to the effective
date of the resignation of Agent, Agent may appoint, after consulting with the
Lenders, a successor Agent. If Agent has materially breached or failed to
perform any material provision of this Agreement or of applicable law, the
Required Lenders may agree in writing to remove and replace Agent with a
successor Agent from among the Lenders. In any such event, upon the acceptance
of its appointment as successor Agent hereunder, such successor Agent shall
succeed to all the rights, powers, and duties of the retiring Agent and the term
"Agent" shall mean such successor Agent and the retiring Agent's appointment,
powers, and duties as Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Agent's
resignation hereunder as Agent, the provisions of this Section 16 shall inure to
its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was
Agent under this Agreement. If no successor Agent has accepted appointment as
Agent by the date which is 45 days following a retiring Agent's notice of
resignation, the retiring Agent's resignation shall nevertheless thereupon
become effective and the Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Agent
hereunder until such time, if any, as the Lenders appoint a successor Agent as
provided for above.

         16.10    LENDER IN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY. Any Lender and its respective
Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept
deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally engage in any kind of
banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with Borrower
and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates and any other Person (other than the Lender
Group) party to any Loan Documents as though

                                     -118-
<PAGE>

such Lender were not a Lender hereunder without notice to or consent of the
other members of the Lender Group. The other members of the Lender Group
acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, such Lender and its respective
Affiliates may receive information regarding Borrower or its Affiliates and any
other Person (other than the Lender Group) party to any Loan Documents that is
subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of Borrower or such other Person
and that prohibit the disclosure of such information to the Lenders, and the
Lenders acknowledge that, in such circumstances (and in the absence of a waiver
of such confidentiality obligations, which waiver such Lender will use its
reasonable best efforts to obtain), such Lender not shall be under any
obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to the Swing Loans
and Agent Advances, Swing Lender shall have the same rights and powers under
this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not the sub-agent of Agent.

         16.11    WITHHOLDING TAXES.

                           (a)      If any Lender is a Foreign Person and such
Lender claims exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under
Sections 1441 or 1442 of the IRC, such Lender agrees with and in favor of Agent
and Borrower, to deliver to Agent and Borrower:

                           (i)      if such Lender claims an exemption from
                  withholding tax pursuant to its portfolio interest exception
                  described in Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the IRC, (a) a
                  statement of the Lender, signed under penalty of perjury, that
                  it is not a (I) a "bank" as described in Section 881(c)(3)(A)
                  of the IRC, (II) a 10% shareholder (within the meaning of
                  Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the IRC), or (III) a controlled
                  foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
                  IRC, and (b) a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN, before the
                  first payment of any interest under this Agreement and at any
                  other time reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower;

                           (ii)     if such Lender claims an exemption from, or
                  a reduction of, withholding tax under a United States tax
                  treaty, a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN before the first
                  payment of any interest under this Agreement and at any other
                  time reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower;

                           (iii)    if such Lender claims that interest paid
                  under this Agreement is exempt from United States withholding
                  tax because it is effectively connected with a United States
                  trade or business of such Lender, two properly completed and
                  executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI before the first payment of
                  any interest is due under this Agreement and at any other time
                  reasonably requested by Agent or Borrower;

                                     -119-
<PAGE>

                           (iv)     such other form or forms as may be required
                  under the IRC or other laws of the United States as a
                  condition to exemption from, or reduction of, United States
                  withholding tax.

Such Lender agrees promptly to notify Agent and Borrower of any change in
circumstances which would modify or render invalid any claimed exemption or
reduction and, if an exemption or reduction of U.S. withholding tax under
Sections 1441 or 1442 of the IRC is available under such changed circumstances,
to provide any statement or form required to establish any such exemption or
reduction.

                           (b)      If any Lender claims exemption from, or
reduction of, U.S. withholding tax under Sections 1441 or 1442 of the IRC and
such Lender sells, assigns, grants a participation in, or otherwise transfers
all or part of its beneficial ownership interest in the Obligations of Borrower
to such Lender, such Lender agrees to promptly notify Agent and Borrower of the
percentage amount in which it is no longer the beneficial owner of Obligations
of Borrower to such Lender. To the extent of such percentage amount, Agent and
Borrower will treat statements or forms previously provided by such Lender
pursuant to this Section 16.11 as no longer valid.

                           (c)      If any Lender is entitled to a reduction in
the applicable withholding tax, Agent may withhold from any interest payment to
such Lender an amount equivalent to the applicable withholding tax after taking
into account such reduction. If the forms or other documentation required by
subsection (a) of this Section 16.11 are not delivered to Agent or Borrower or
are no longer valid, then Agent and Borrower may withhold from any interest
payment to such Lender not providing such forms or other documentation, or in
respect of whom such forms or other documentation, although provided, are or
have become wholly or partially invalid, an amount equivalent to the applicable
withholding tax.

                           (d)      If the IRS or any other Governmental
Authority of the United States or other jurisdiction asserts a claim that Agent
did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any
Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered, was not properly
executed, or because such Lender failed to notify Agent of a change in
circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding
tax ineffective, or for any other reason) such Lender shall indemnify and hold
Agent harmless for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by Agent as tax or
otherwise, including penalties and interest, and including any taxes imposed by
any jurisdiction on the amounts payable to Agent under this Section, together
with all costs and expenses (including attorneys fees and expenses). The
obligation of the Lenders under this subsection shall survive the payment of all
Obligations and the resignation or replacement of Agent.

                           (e)      All payments made by Borrower hereunder or
under any note will be made without setoff, counterclaim, or other defense,
except as required by applicable law other than for Taxes (as defined below).
All such payments will be made free and clear

                                     -120-
<PAGE>

of, and without deduction or withholding for, any present or future taxes,
levies, imposts, duties, fees, assessments or other charges of whatever nature
now or hereafter imposed by any jurisdiction (other than the United States) or
by any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (other than
a political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States) with
respect to such payments (but excluding, any tax (and any interest, penalties or
similar liabilities with respect thereto) imposed by any jurisdiction or by any
political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein (i) measured by or
based on the net income or net profits of a Lender (including any franchise,
branch profits or similar taxes), or (ii) to the extent that such tax results
from a change in the circumstances of the Lender, including a change in the
residence, place of organization, or principal place of business of the Lender,
or a change in the branch or lending office of the Lender participating in the
transactions set forth herein) and all interest, penalties or similar
liabilities with respect thereto (all such non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts,
duties, fees, assessments or other charges being referred to collectively as
"Taxes"). If any Taxes are so levied or imposed, Borrower agrees to pay the full
amount of such Taxes, and such additional amounts as may be necessary so that
every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement or under any note,
including any amount paid pursuant to this Section 16.11(e) after withholding or
deduction for or on account of any Taxes, will not be less than the amount
provided for herein; provided, however, that Borrower shall not be required to
increase any such amounts payable to Agent or any Lender (i) if such Person
fails to comply with any requirements under this Section 16.11 to establish an
exemption from or reduction of any Tax, or (ii) if the increase in such amount
payable results from Agent's or such Lender's own willful misconduct or gross
negligence. Borrower will furnish to Agent as promptly as possible after the
date the payment of any Taxes is due pursuant to applicable law certified copies
of tax receipts evidencing such payment by Borrower.

         16.12    COLLATERAL MATTERS.

                           (a)      The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize
Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release any Lien on any
Collateral (i) upon the termination of the Commitments and payment and
satisfaction in full by Borrower of all Obligations, (ii) constituting property
being sold or disposed of if a release is required or desirable in connection
therewith and if Borrower certifies to Agent that the sale or disposition is
permitted under Section 7.4 of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents (and
Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry),
(iii) constituting property in which Borrower owned no interest at the time the
security interest was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) constituting
property leased to Borrower under a lease that has expired or is terminated in a
transaction permitted under this Agreement. Except as provided above, Agent will
not execute and deliver a release of any Lien on any Collateral without the
prior written authorization of (y) if the release is of all or substantially all
of the Collateral, all of the Lenders, or (z) otherwise, the Required Lenders.
Upon request by Agent or Borrower at any time, the Lenders will confirm in
writing Agent's authority to release any such Liens on particular types or items
of Collateral pursuant to this Section 16.12; provided, however, that

                                     -121-
<PAGE>

(1) Agent shall not be required to execute any document necessary to evidence
such release on terms that, in Agent's opinion, would expose Agent to liability
or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of
such Lien without recourse, representation, or warranty, and (2) such release
shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the Obligations or any
Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of
Borrower in respect of) all interests retained by Borrower, including, the
proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the
Collateral.

                           (b)      Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to
any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by Borrower
or is cared for, protected, or insured or has been encumbered, or that the
Agent's Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected,
protected, or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to
exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care,
disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights,
authorities and powers granted or available to Agent pursuant to any of the Loan
Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or
any act, omission, or event related thereto, subject to the terms and conditions
contained herein, Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its
sole discretion given Agent's own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as
one of the Lenders and that Agent shall have no other duty or liability
whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing, except as otherwise
provided herein.

         16.13    RESTRICTIONS ON ACTIONS BY LENDERS; SHARING OF PAYMENTS.

                           (a)      Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall
not, without the express consent of Agent, and that it shall, to the extent it
is lawfully entitled to do so, upon the request of Agent, set off against the
Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to Borrower or any Deposit
Accounts of Borrower now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the
Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so
by Agent, take or cause to be taken any action, including, the commencement of
any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise
enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral the purpose of which is,
or could be, to give such Lender any preference or priority against the other
Lenders with respect to the Collateral.

                           (b)      If, at any time or times any Lender shall
receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff, or otherwise, any proceeds of
Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations arising under, or
relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for any such
proceeds or payments received by such Lender from Agent pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, or (ii) payments from Agent in excess of such Lender's ratable
portion of all such distributions by Agent, such Lender promptly shall (1) turn
the same over to Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required
to negotiate the same to Agent, or in immediately available funds, as
applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the
Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or
(2) purchase, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and

                                     -122-
<PAGE>

participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess
payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance
with their Pro Rata Shares; provided, however, that if all or part of such
excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it,
those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as
applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall
be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent
that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the
recovery of the excess payment.

         16.14    AGENCY FOR PERFECTION. Agent hereby appoints each other Lender
as its agent (and each Lender hereby accepts such appointment) for the purpose
of perfecting the Agent's Liens in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of
the Code can be perfected only by possession. Should any Lender obtain
possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Agent thereof, and,
promptly upon Agent's request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Agent or
in accordance with Agent's instructions.

         16.15    PAYMENTS BY AGENT TO THE LENDERS. All payments to be made by
Agent to the Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of
immediately available funds pursuant to such wire transfer instructions as each
party may designate for itself by written notice to Agent. Concurrently with
each such payment, Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion
thereof) represents principal, premium, or interest of the Obligations.

         16.16    CONCERNING THE COLLATERAL AND RELATED LOAN DOCUMENTS. Each
member of the Lender Group authorizes and directs Agent to enter into this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral, for the
benefit of the Lender Group. Each member of the Lender Group agrees that any
action taken by Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the
other Loan Documents relating to the Collateral and the exercise by Agent of its
powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are
reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

         16.17    FIELD AUDITS AND EXAMINATION REPORTS; CONFIDENTIALITY;
DISCLAIMERS BY LENDERS; OTHER REPORTS AND INFORMATION. By becoming a party to
this Agreement, each Lender:

                           (a)      is deemed to have requested that Agent
furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field
audit or examination report (each a "Report" and collectively, "Reports")
prepared by Agent, and Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports,

                           (b)      expressly agrees and acknowledges that Agent
does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any
Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any
Report,

                                     -123-
<PAGE>

                           (c)      expressly agrees and acknowledges that the
Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that Agent or other party
performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information
regarding Borrower and will rely significantly upon the Books, as well as on
representations of Borrower's personnel,

                           (d)      agrees to keep all Reports and other
material, non-public information regarding Borrower and its Subsidiaries and
their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans in a
confidential manner; it being understood and agreed by Borrower that in any
event such Lender may make disclosures (a) to counsel for and other advisors,
accountants, and auditors to such Lender, (b) reasonably required by any bona
fide potential or actual Assignee or Participant in connection with any
contemplated or actual assignment or transfer by such Lender of an interest
herein or any Participating Interest in such Lender's rights hereunder, so long
as such Lender has first secured a customary confidentiality agreement from such
potential or actual Assignee or Participant, (c) of information that has become
public by disclosures made by Persons other than such Lender, its Affiliates,
assignees, transferees, or Participants, or (d) as required or requested by any
court, governmental or administrative agency, pursuant to any subpoena or other
legal process, or by any law, statute, regulation, or court order; provided,
however, that, unless prohibited by applicable law, statute, regulation, or
court order, such Lender shall notify Borrower of any request by any court,
governmental or administrative agency, or pursuant to any subpoena or other
legal process for disclosure of any such non-public material information
concurrent with, or where practicable, prior to the disclosure thereof, and

                           (e)      without limiting the generality of any other
indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold Agent
and any other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the
indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or
draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations
that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to Borrower, or the
indemnifying Lender's participation in, or the indemnifying Lender's purchase
of, a loan or loans of Borrower, and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify,
defend and hold Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless
from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses,
and other amounts (including, attorneys fees and costs) incurred by Agent and
any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any
third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the
indemnifying Lender.

In addition to the foregoing: (x) any Lender may from time to time request of
Agent in writing that Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or
document provided by Borrower to Agent that has not been contemporaneously
provided by Borrower to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, Agent
promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, (y) to the extent that
Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request
additional reports or information from Borrower, any Lender may, from time to
time, reasonably request Agent to exercise such right as specified in such

                                     -124-
<PAGE>

Lender's notice to Agent, whereupon Agent promptly shall request of Borrower the
additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon
receipt thereof from Borrower, Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to
such Lender, and (z) any time that Agent renders to Borrower a statement
regarding the Loan Account, Agent shall send a copy of such statement to each
Lender.

         16.18    SEVERAL OBLIGATIONS; NO LIABILITY. Notwithstanding that
certain of the Loan Documents now or hereafter may have been or will be executed
only by or in favor of Agent in its capacity as such, and not by or in favor of
the Lenders, any and all obligations on the part of Agent (if any) to make any
credit available hereunder shall constitute the several (and not joint)
obligations of the respective Lenders on a ratable basis, according to their
respective Commitments, to make an amount of such credit not to exceed, in
principal amount, at any one time outstanding, the amount of their respective
Commitments. Nothing contained herein shall confer upon any Lender any interest
in, or subject any Lender to any liability for, or in respect of, the business,
assets, profits, losses, or liabilities of any other Lender. Each Lender shall
be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters relating to
the Loan Documents to the extent any such notice may be required, and no Lender
shall have any obligation, duty, or liability to any Participant of any other
Lender. Except as provided in Section 16.7, no member of the Lender Group shall
have any liability for the acts or any other member of the Lender Group. No
Lender shall be responsible to Borrower or any other Person for any failure by
any other Lender to fulfill its obligations to make credit available hereunder,
nor to advance for it or on its behalf in connection with its Commitment, nor to
take any other action on its behalf hereunder or in connection with the
financing contemplated herein.

         16.19    LEGAL REPRESENTATION OF AGENT. In connection with the
negotiation, drafting, and execution of this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, or in connection with future legal representation relating to loan
administration, amendments, modifications, waivers, or enforcement of remedies,
Paul, Hastings, Janofsky & Walker LLP ("PHJ&W") only has represented and only
shall represent WFF in its capacity as Agent and as a Lender. Each other Lender
hereby acknowledges that PHJ&W does not represent it in connection with any such
matters.

17.      GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         17.1     EFFECTIVENESS. This Agreement shall be binding and deemed
effective when executed by Borrower, ACME Parent, Agent, and each Lender whose
signature is provided for on the signature pages hereof.

         17.2     SECTION HEADINGS. Headings and numbers have been set forth
herein for convenience only. Unless the contrary is compelled by the context,
everything contained in each Section applies equally to this entire Agreement.

                                     -125-
<PAGE>

         17.3     INTERPRETATION. Neither this Agreement nor any uncertainty or
ambiguity herein shall be construed against the Lender Group, Borrower, or ACME
Parent, whether under any rule of construction or otherwise. On the contrary,
this Agreement has been reviewed by all parties and shall be construed and
interpreted according to the ordinary meaning of the words used so as to
accomplish fairly the purposes and intentions of all parties hereto.

         17.4     SEVERABILITY OF PROVISIONS. Each provision of this Agreement
shall be severable from every other provision of this Agreement for the purpose
of determining the legal enforceability of any specific provision.

         17.5     AMENDMENTS IN WRITING. This Agreement only can be amended by a
writing signed by Agent (on behalf of the requisite Lenders), Borrower, and ACME
Parent.

         17.6     COUNTERPARTS; TELEFACSIMILE EXECUTION. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate
counterparts, each of which, when executed and delivered, shall be deemed to be
an original, and all of which, when taken together, shall constitute but one and
the same Agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Agreement by
telefacsimile shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an executed counterpart of
this Agreement by telefacsimile also shall deliver an original executed
counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed
counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability, and binding effect of
this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis
mutandis.

         17.7     REVIVAL AND REINSTATEMENT OF OBLIGATIONS. If the incurrence or
payment of the Obligations by the Obligors or the transfer to the Lender Group
of any property should for any reason subsequently be declared to be void or
voidable under any state or federal law relating to creditors' rights, including
provisions of the Bankruptcy Code relating to fraudulent conveyances,
preferences, or other voidable or recoverable payments of money or transfers of
property (collectively, a "Voidable Transfer"), and if the Lender Group is
required to repay or restore, in whole or in part, any such Voidable Transfer,
or elects to do so upon the reasonable advice of its counsel, then, as to any
such Voidable Transfer, or the amount thereof that the Lender Group is required
or elects to repay or restore, and as to all reasonable costs, expenses, and
attorneys fees of the Lender Group related thereto, the liability of the
Obligors automatically shall be revived, reinstated, and restored and shall
exist as though such Voidable Transfer had never been made.

         17.8     FCC APPROVALS. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any of
the Loan Documents to the contrary, but without limiting or waiving in any way
Borrower's obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the
Lender Group's rights hereunder and under the Loan Documents are subject to the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended, and all applicable policies, rules and
regulations of the FCC. Agent and the Lenders will not take any action pursuant
to this Agreement or the Loan Documents which

                                     -126-
<PAGE>

would constitute or result in any assignment or transfer of control of any FCC
License, whether de jure or de facto, if such assignment or transfer of control
would require under the then existing law (including the Communications Act of
1934, as amended, and the published policies, rules and regulations promulgated
by the FCC), the prior approval of the FCC, without first obtaining such
approval.

         17.9     INTEGRATION. This Agreement, together with the other Loan
Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and shall not be contradicted or
qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

         17.10    AMENDMENT AND RESTATEMENT OF EXISTING LOAN AGREEMENT. This
Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Loan
Agreement effective from and after the Restatement Closing Date. The execution
and delivery of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby are not intended by the parties to be, and shall not
constitute, a novation or an accord and satisfaction of the Obligations or any
other obligations owing to the Lenders or the Agent under the Existing Loan
Agreement or any other Loan Document. On the Restatement Closing Date, the
credit facilities and the terms and conditions thereof described in the Existing
Loan Agreement shall be amended and replaced by the credit facilities and the
terms and conditions thereof described herein, and all Advances and other
Obligations of Borrower outstanding as of such date under the Existing Loan
Agreement shall be deemed to be Advances and Obligations outstanding under the
corresponding facilities described herein (such that all Advances and Letters of
Credit which are outstanding on the Restatement Closing Date under the Existing
Loan Agreement shall become Advances and Letters of Credit, respectively, under
this Agreement), without further action by any Person. Each of the parties
hereto hereby acknowledges and agrees that the grant of the security interests
in the Collateral pursuant to Section 4.1 of this Agreement and in any other
Loan Document is not intended to, nor shall it be construed, as constituting a
release of any prior security interests granted by any Obligor in favor of Agent
or Lender in or to any Collateral or any other Property of such Obligor, but is
intended to constitute a restatement and reconfirmation of the prior security
interests granted by the Obligors in favor of Agent and Lenders in and to the
Collateral and a grant of a new security interest in those types of Collateral
that were not included in any prior security grants by the Obligors by virtue of
the recent enactment of Revised Article 9 of the Code.

         17.11    COMMITMENT INCREASE OPTION; COMMITMENT DECREASE. The Lender
Group hereby grants to Borrower the option (the "Commitment Increase Option") of
increasing the Maximum Revolver Amount from $40,000,000 to $50,000,000 (subject
to any previous reductions in the Maximum Revolver Amount pursuant to Section
2.2, in which case the Maximum Revolver Amount shall increase by $10,000,000
above the Maximum Revolver Amount in effect immediately prior to the date of
Borrower's exercise of the

                                     -127-
<PAGE>

Commitment Increase Option). Borrower may exercise the Commitment Increase
Option subject to the satisfaction in full of each of the following conditions:

                           (a)      Borrower shall give Agent 5 Business Days
prior written notice of its intent to exercise the Commitment Increase Option;

                           (b)      Concurrent with the increase of the Maximum
Revolver Amount, Borrower shall pay to Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders,
the Commitment Increase Fee;

                           (c)      The Commitment Increase Option must be
exercised on or prior to March 31, 2004; and

                           (d)      No Default or Event of Default exists or
would result therefrom.

                  If Borrower exercises the Commitment Increase Option, the
Maximum Revolver Amount shall thereupon increase to $50,000,000 (subject to any
previous reductions in the Maximum Revolver Amount pursuant to Section 2.2, in
which case the Maximum Revolver Amount shall increase by $10,000,000 above the
Maximum Revolver Amount in effect immediately prior to the date of Borrower's
exercise of the Commitment Increase Option). If the Maximum Revolver Amount is
increased due to Borrower's exercise of the Commitment Increase Option, it shall
automatically decrease by an amount equal to (i) $1,000,000 on the first
anniversary of the Restatement Closing Date and (ii) $1,000,000 on the second
anniversary of the Restatement Closing Date. The Lenders' respective Commitments
shall be increased or decreased as provided for in this Section 17.11 in
accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares.

         17.12    WAIVERS BY ACME PARENT.

                           (a)      ACME Parent is executing this Agreement
solely for the purpose of making the covenants, waivers, consents, and other
agreements set forth in Sections 7.1, 7.2, 7.6, 7.8, 9.2, 11.3(b), 13, 14.2,
17.1, 17.3, 17.4, 17.5, 17.6, 17.9, 17.10, 17.12, and 17.13 and not as an
Obligor. In the event, however, that ACME Parent's execution of this Agreement
is determined to be in the nature of a guaranty or a suretyship, ACME Parent
makes the following waivers, consents, and agreements: Except as otherwise
expressly provided in this Agreement, ACME Parent hereby waives notice of
acceptance of its liability, notice of any Advances or Letters of Credit issued
under or pursuant to this Agreement, notice of the occurrence of any Default,
Event of Default, or of any demand for any payment under this Agreement, notice
of any action at any time taken or omitted by Agent or Lenders under or in
respect of any of the Obligations, any requirement of diligence or to mitigate
damages and, generally, to the extent permitted by applicable law, all demands,
notices and other formalities of every kind in connection with this Agreement
(except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). ACME Parent hereby assents to,
and waives notice of, any extension or postponement of the time for the payment
of any of the Obligations, the

                                     -128-
<PAGE>

acceptance of any payment of any of the Obligations, the acceptance of any
partial payment thereon, any waiver, consent or other action or acquiescence by
Agent or Lenders at any time or times in respect of any default by any Obligor
in the performance or satisfaction of any term, covenant, condition or provision
of this Agreement, any and all other indulgences whatsoever by Agent or Lenders
in respect of any of the Obligations, and the taking, addition, substitution or
release, in whole or in part, at any time or times, of any security for any of
the Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, ACME Parent
assents to any other action or delay in acting or failure to act on the part of
any Agent or Lender with respect to the failure by any Obligor to comply with
any of its respective Obligations, including, without limitation, any failure
strictly or diligently to assert any right or to pursue any remedy or to comply
fully with applicable laws or regulations thereunder, which might, but for the
provisions of this Section 17.12 afford grounds for terminating, discharging or
relieving ACME, in whole or in part, from any of its covenants under this
Agreement, it being the intention of ACME Parent that, so long as any of the
Obligations hereunder remain unsatisfied, the covenants of ACME Parent under
this Agreement shall not be discharged except by performance and then only to
the extent of such performance. The covenants of ACME Parent under this
Agreement shall not be diminished or rendered unenforceable by any winding up,
reorganization, arrangement, liquidation, reconstruction or similar proceeding
with respect to any Obligor or any Agent or Lender. The covenants of ACME Parent
hereunder shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding any
absorption, merger, amalgamation or any other change whatsoever in the name,
constitution or place of formation of any Obligor or any Agent or Lender.

                           (b)      ACME Parent represents and warrants to Agent
and Lenders that ACME Parent is currently informed of the financial condition of
the Obligors and of all other circumstances which a diligent inquiry would
reveal and which bear upon the risk of nonpayment of the Obligations. ACME
Parent further represents and warrants to Agent and Lenders that it has read and
understands the terms and conditions of the Loan Documents. ACME Parent hereby
covenants that it will continue to keep informed of the Obligors' financial
condition and of all other circumstances which bear upon the risk of nonpayment
or nonperformance of the Obligations.

                           (c)      ACME Parent waives all rights and defenses
arising out of an election of remedies by Agent or any Lender, even though that
election of remedies, such as a nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to security
for a guaranteed obligation, has destroyed ACME Parent's rights of subrogation
and reimbursement against Borrower by the operation of Section 580(d) of the
California Code of Civil Procedure or otherwise.

                           (d)      ACME Parent waives all rights and defenses
that such Borrower may have because the Obligations are secured by Real
Property. This means, among other things:

                                     -129-
<PAGE>

                           (i)      Agent and Lenders may collect from any
                  Obligor without first foreclosing on any Real Property
                  Collateral or Personal Property Collateral pledged by any
                  other Obligor.

                           (ii)     If Agent or any Lender forecloses on any
                  Real Property Collateral pledged by any Obligor:

                                    The amount of the Obligations may be reduced
                           only by the price for which that collateral is sold
                           at the foreclosure sale, even if the collateral is
                           worth more than the sale price; and

                                    Agent and Lenders may collect from such
                           Obligor even if Agent or Lenders, by foreclosing on
                           the Real Property Collateral, has destroyed any right
                           such Obligor may have to collect from the other
                           Obligors.

This is an unconditional and irrevocable waiver of any rights and defenses ACME
Parent may have because the Obligations are secured by Real Property. These
rights and defenses include, but are not limited to, any rights or defenses
based upon Section 580a, 580b, 580d or 726 of the California Code of Civil
Procedure.

                           (e)      The provisions of this Section 17.12 are
made for the benefit of the Agent, the Lenders and their respective successors
and assigns, and may be enforced by it or them from time to time against ACME
Parent as often as occasion therefor may arise and without requirement on the
part of any such Agent, Lender, successor or assign first to marshal any of its
or their claims or to exercise any of its or their rights against any of the
Obligors or to exhaust any remedies available to it or them against any of the
Obligors or to resort to any other source or means of obtaining payment of any
of the Obligations hereunder or to elect any other remedy. The provisions of
this Section 17.12 shall remain in effect until all of the Obligations shall
have been paid in full or otherwise fully satisfied. If at any time, any
payment, or any part thereof, made in respect of any of the Obligations, is
rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Agent or Lender upon
the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any of the Obligors, or
otherwise, the provisions of this Section 17.12 will forthwith be reinstated in
effect, as though such payment had not been made.

                           (f)      ACME Parent hereby agrees that it will not
enforce any of its rights of contribution or subrogation against the Obligors
with respect to any liability incurred by it hereunder or under any of the other
Loan Documents, any payments made by it to the Agent or the Lenders with respect
to any of the Obligations or any collateral security therefor until such time as
all of the Obligations have been paid in full in cash. Any claim which ACME
Parent may have against any Obligor with respect to any payments to any Agent or
Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Documents are hereby expressly made
subordinate and junior in right of payment, without limitation as to any
increases in the

                                     -130-
<PAGE>

Obligations arising hereunder or thereunder, to the prior payment in full in
cash of the Obligations and, in the event of any insolvency, bankruptcy,
receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar proceeding under the
laws of any jurisdiction relating to any Obligor, its debts or its assets,
whether voluntary or involuntary, all such Obligations shall be paid in full in
cash before any payment or distribution of any character, whether in cash,
securities or other property, shall be made to ACME Parent therefor.

                           17.13    DISCLOSURE OF TAX INFORMATION.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or in any

                               AGREEMENT OF LEASE

         1.       PARTIES.

                  This Lease is made this 30th day of June, 2003, by and between
FV OFFICE PARTNERS, L.P., a limited partnership organized and existing under the
laws of Delaware, whose address is Suite 120, 955 Chesterbrook Boulevard, Wayne,
PA 19087 (hereafter called "Landlord"), and INTERNET CAPITAL GROUP OPERATIONS,
INC., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the state of
Delaware whose present address is 435 Devon Park Drive, Building 600, Wayne, PA
19087 (hereinafter referred to as "Tenant").

It is hereby agreed by and between Landlord and Tenant, intending to be legally
bound, for themselves and for their respective successors and assigns, in the
manner following, it being understood that the Premises are demised under and
subject to the following covenants, all of which are also to be regarded as
strict legal conditions:

         2.       DEMISE.

                  Landlord does hereby lease and demise to Tenant and Tenant
does hereby hire and take from Landlord, for the term and subject to the
provisions hereof, the Premises (the "Premises") shown cross-hatched on the
floor plan(s) (the "Floor Plans") attached hereto as Exhibit "A," on the third
floor of the building (hereinafter referred to as the "Building") known as 690
Lee Road, Chesterbrook, PA 19087, occupying or to occupy the parcel of land
bounded as described on Exhibit "B" attached hereto (the "Land"). The Building
and Land are sometimes collectively referred to in this Lease as the "Property".

         3.       TERM.

                  (a)      This demise shall be for the term (hereinafter
referred to as "the Term") beginning on the "Commencement Date" of the Term as
defined in Article 3(b) of this Lease and ending, without the necessity of
notice from either party to the other, five (5) years and eight (8) months from
and after the Commencement Date if the Commencement Date shall be the first day
of a month, if the Commencement Date shall be other than the first day of the
month, then from and after the first day of the month next following the
Commencement Date. The date upon which the Term expires is hereinafter referred
to as the "Expiration Date".

                  (b)      The Term shall commence on the earlier of

                           (i)      the date the Premises are ready for
occupancy;

                           (ii)     the date Tenant or anyone claiming under or
through Tenant first occupies any part of the Premises (the "Commencement
Date"); or

                           (iii)    November 1, 2003.

                           The Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy on
the date the work to be performed by Landlord in the Premises in accordance with
this Lease shall have been substantially completed upon the issuance of a
permanent certificate of occupancy for the

<PAGE>

Premises notwithstanding that insubstantial details of construction, mechanical
adjustment, or decoration remain to be performed, the non-completion of which
would not materially interfere with Tenant's use of the Premises; and

                  (c)      Landlord shall give Tenant thirty (30) days prior
notice of the date the Premises will be ready for occupancy. Landlord agrees to
give Tenant periodic progress reports with respect to the improvement of the
Premises and a good faith estimate of the date the Premises will be ready for
occupancy.

                  (d)      For purposes of determining the date when the
Premises are ready for occupancy (and, correspondingly, the Commencement Date
and the date from which rent shall commence to accrue), there shall not be
considered the duration of any delay which is caused by:

                           (i)      changes in the work to be performed by
Landlord in readying the Premises for Tenant's occupancy, which changes shall
have been requested by Tenant after the approval by Landlord and Tenant of
Tenant Construction Plans (as defined in Article 8(f) of this Lease);

                           (ii)     delays, not caused by Landlord, in
furnishing materials or procuring labor required by Tenant for installations or
work in the Premises which are not encompassed within Standard Tenant Work (as
that term is defined in Article 8(g) of this Lease);

                           (iii)    any failure by Tenant, without regard to any
grace period applicable thereto, to furnish any required plan, information,
approval or consent (including, without limit, Tenant Construction Plans) within
the required period of time; or

                           (iv)     the performance of any work or activity in
the Premises by Tenant or any of its employees, agents or contractors. The
Premises shall be deemed ready for occupancy (and rent shall commence to accrue)
on the date the Premises would have been ready but for the causes described in
this subparagraph (d).

                  (e)      When the Commencement Date is established, Landlord
and Tenant shall promptly execute and acknowledge a memorandum, the form
attached hereto as Exhibit "C" of the Commencement Date and the date of
expiration of the Term.

                  (f)      If the Tenant or any person claiming through the
Tenant shall have continued to occupy the Premises after the expiration or
earlier termination of the Term or any renewal thereof, and if the Landlord
shall have consented in writing to such continuation of occupancy, such
occupancy (unless the parties hereto shall have otherwise agreed in writing)
shall be deemed to be under a month-to-month tenancy. The month-to-month tenancy
shall continue until either party shall have notified the other in writing, at
least ninety (90) days prior to the end of any calendar month, that the party
giving such notice elects to terminate the month-to-month tenancy at the end of
that calendar month, in which event, such tenancy shall so terminate. If such
occupancy shall have continued without Landlord's written consent, then such
occupancy shall be in violation of this Lease, in which event, Tenant (i) shall
be liable for any and all losses, claims, reasonable costs, reasonable expenses
and damages suffered or incurred by Landlord (including, without limit thereto,
court costs and counsel fee), whether direct or consequential, whether foreseen
or unforeseen as a result of such continued occupancy, and

                                      -2-

<PAGE>

Landlord shall have all of the rights and remedies available under this Lease,
or at law or in equity, for such violation and, without limitation of the
foregoing clause (i), (ii) will indemnify and hold harmless Landlord from and
against all claims and demands made by succeeding tenants against Landlord,
founded upon delay by Landlord in delivering possession of the Premises to such
succeeding tenant. The rental payable with respect to each monthly period of any
month-to-month tenancy (and to each monthly period of continued occupancy which
may occur without Landlord's consent) shall equal one hundred fifty percent
(150%) of the minimum fixed monthly rent payable under Articles 4(b), which
would have been payable had this Lease been renewed for a period of twelve (12)
full calendar months following the expiration or termination of the Term in the
absence of this subparagraph (f). Any month-to-month tenancy arising with
Landlord's consent shall be upon the same terms and subject to the same
conditions as those which are set forth in this Lease, except as otherwise set
forth in this subparagraph (f), provided that if the Landlord shall have given
to the Tenant, at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration or earlier
termination of the Term or any renewal thereof or prior to the end of any month
of a month-to-month tenancy, written notice that the Tenant's occupancy
following such month or expiration or termination (as the case may be) shall be
subject to such modifications of the terms and conditions of this Lease
(including any provision relating to the amount and payment of rent) as are
specified in such notice, the Tenant's occupancy following such month or
expiration or termination (as the case may be) shall be subject to the
provisions of this Lease as so modified.

         4.       FIXED RENT; TENANT ENERGY COSTS; ANNUAL OPERATING COSTS; LEASE
TAXES.

                  (a)      Tenant shall pay to Landlord as rent under this Lease
the aggregate of:

                           (i)      Fixed Rent (as defined in Article 4(b) of
this Lease);

                           (ii)     Tenant's share of Tenant Energy Costs (as
defined in Article 4(d) of this Lease);

                           (iii)    Tenant's proportionate share of increases in
Annual Operating Costs (as defined in Articles 4(c) and 4(e) of this Lease) over
Base Operating Costs (as defined in Article 4(e)(i)(C) of this Lease); and

                           (iv)     All other sums payable by Tenant to Landlord
pursuant to the provisions of this Lease.

                  (b)      Fixed Rent.

                           (i)      The minimum fixed annual rent during each
lease year of the Term shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of
America and payable in equal monthly installments in advance and without prior
demand, notice, set-off or deduction on the first day of each and every month
during the Term (the "Fixed Rent") in accordance with the schedule set forth
below:

Landlord pursuant to or by reason of this Lease shall be payable to Landlord at
the office of Landlord, c/o Fox Realty Co., 955 Chesterbrook Boulevard, Suite
120, Chesterbrook, PA 19087, or to such other person and at such other place as
Landlord may from time to time designate in writing.

                           (iii)    The first monthly installment of Fixed Rent
shall be paid at the time of the signing of this Lease.

                           (iv)     If the Term begins on a day other than the
first day of a month, Fixed Rent from the Commencement Date until the first day
of the following month shall be prorated and shall be payable in advance on the
first day of the Term and, in such event, the installment of Fixed Rent paid at
the signing of this Lease shall be applied to the Fixed Rent due for the first
full calendar month of the Term.

                  (c)      Tenant's Proportionate Share. As used in this Lease,
"the square foot area of the Premises" shall be deemed to be Seven Thousand
Seventy Two (7,072) square feet, "the total square foot area of the Building"
shall be deemed to be Seventy Three Thousand One Hundred Forty Nine (73,149)
square feet and "Tenant's proportionate share" shall refer to the percentage
relationship between the foregoing, namely 9.67%. Tenant recognizes that, as
used in this Lease, the total square foot area of the Premises includes a share
of the common areas of the Building.

                  (d)      Tenant Energy Costs.

                           (i)      The term "Tenant Energy Costs" shall mean
the costs to Landlord of furnishing to the respective areas of the Property
electric energy or other utility services, except water and sewer (including
taxes or fuel adjustment or transfer charges and other like charges regularly
passed on to the consumer by the public utility furnishing electric energy to
the Property).

                           (ii)     For and with respect to each calendar year
of the Term (and any renewals or extensions thereof) including, without limit,
the first calendar year during which the Term of this Lease shall have
commenced, there shall accrue, as additional rent under this Lease

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

and be paid within fifteen (15) days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant a
statement or statements of the amount due, Landlord's costs in such calendar
year of supplying such quantity of electric energy as is; (A) consumed by Tenant
in the Premises, including, without limitation, such electric energy as is
consumed by Tenant in connection with the operation of the heating, ventilating
and air-conditioning systems serving only the Premises, if any, as such
consumption shall have been shown on the meters referred to in Article
16(a)(viii) of this Lease, together with any administrative costs incurred by
Landlord by reason thereof, and (B) Tenant's proportionate share, as defined in
Article 4(c) of this Lease, of Landlord's costs in such calendar year of
supplying electric energy and other utility service (excluding water and sewer),
as is supplied to all non-tenanted areas of the Property in connection with the
operation of the Property together with any administrative costs incurred by
Landlord by reason thereof.

                           (iii)    The method and timing (but not more
frequently than monthly) of billing such costs of Landlord shall be determined
by Landlord, using reasonable accounting principles, it being understood that it
is not intended that Landlord derive any profit from the supplying of electric
energy or other utility service.

                           (iv)     If Tenant shall fail to pay when due any
amounts payable by Tenant under this Article 4(d), and such failure shall
continue for ten (10) days after written notice from Landlord, then in addition
to any other rights and remedies available to Landlord under this Lease, or at
law or in equity, Landlord may terminate any utility services to the Premises
furnished by Landlord for which payment is overdue, without any liability to
Tenant, whether for interruption of Tenant's business or otherwise.

                  (e)      Annual Operating Cost.

                           (i)      The term "Annual Operating Costs" shall mean
the actual costs to Landlord of operating and maintaining the Property
(including, without limit, all improvements thereto and fixtures and equipment
therein or thereon) during each calendar year of the Term (and any renewals or
extensions thereof) including, without limit, the first calendar year during
which the Term of this Lease shall have commenced, excluding Tenant Energy Costs
(as hereinbefore defined). Such costs shall include, by way of example rather
than of limitation, (1) charges or fees for, and taxes on, the furnishing to the
Property of water and sewer service, electric energy (excluding the supply of
electric energy included in Tenant Energy Costs) and, if the Building systems
should be converted to receive the same, steam or fuel and other utility
services; (2) costs of elevator service and charges or fees for maintenance of
the Property, planting, replanting and janitorial service, trash removal,
policing, cleaning, restriping, resurfacing, maintaining and repairing all
walkways, roadways, parking areas forming part of the Property, maintaining all
landscaped areas of the Property; (3) charges or fees for any necessary
governmental permits; (4) wages, salaries and benefits of employees of Landlord
or any management company engaged by Landlord in connection with the Building,
management fees, overhead and expenses; (5) the cost of premiums for hazard,
rent, liability, workmen's compensation and other insurance upon the Property or
portions thereof; (6) costs arising under service contracts with independent
contractors; (7) professional and consulting fees including, without limit,
legal and auditing fees; (8) repairs, replacements and improvements to the
Property which are appropriate for the continued operation of the Building as a
first class office building; (9) all real estate taxes and assessments, general
or special, ordinary or extraordinary,

                                      -5-

<PAGE>

foreseen or unforeseen, (other than "Lease Taxes" as defined in Article 4(i) of
this Lease) assessed or imposed upon the Property (collectively, "Taxes"); if,
due to a future change in the method of taxation, any franchise, income, profit
or other tax, however designated, shall be levied or imposed in substitution, in
whole or in part, for (or in lieu of) any tax or addition or increase in any tax
which would otherwise be included within the definition of Taxes, such other tax
shall be deemed to be included within Taxes as defined in this Lease; and (10)
the cost of all other items which, under standard accounting practices,
constitute operating or maintenance costs which are attributable to the Property
or any portion thereof. The term "Annual Operating Costs" shall not include:
depreciation on the Building or equipment; interest on mortgage encumbrances;
ground rents; income taxes; salaries of executive officers of Landlord;
commissions payable to leasing brokers; and expenditures for capital
improvements, except (1) those which under generally applied real estate
practice are expensed or regarded as deferred expenses and (2) capital
expenditures required by law, in either of which cases the cost thereof shall be
included in Annual Operating Costs for the calendar year in which the cost shall
have been incurred and subsequent calendar years, on a straight line basis, to
the extent that such items are amortized over an appropriate period, but not
more than ten (10) years, with an interest factor equal to two percent (2%) plus
the prime rate at the time Landlord shall have incurred said costs. The prime
rate shall mean the rate of interest per annum announced from time to time by
First Union Bank, N.A. or its successor as its prime lending rate (or if such
prime lending rate is discontinued, such comparable rate as Landlord reasonably
designates by notice to Tenant).

                           (ii)     If Landlord shall have purchased any item of
capital equipment or shall have made any capital expenditure designed to result
in savings or reductions in Annual Operating Costs or Tenant Energy Costs
applicable to leased space generally, then the costs of having purchased such
equipment and such capital expenditures shall be included in Annual Operating
Costs for the calendar year in which the costs shall have been incurred and
subsequent calendar years, on a straight line basis, to the extent that such
items are amortized over such period of time as reasonably can be estimated as
the time in which such savings or reductions in Annual Operating Costs are
expected to equal Landlord's costs for such capital equipment or capital
expenditure, with an interest factor equal to the prime rate at the time of
Landlord's having incurred said costs. If Landlord shall have leased any such
items of capital equipment designed to result in savings or reductions in Annual
Operating Costs, then the rental and other costs paid pursuant to such leasing
shall be included in Annual Operating Costs for the calendar year in which they
shall have been incurred.

                           (iii)    The term "Base Operating Costs" shall mean
the sum of Four Hundred Forty Four Thousand Fourteen Dollars and Forty Three
Cents ($444,014.43).

                           (iv)     For and with respect to each calendar year
of the Term (and any renewals or extensions thereof) including, however, the
first calendar year during which the Term of this Lease shall have commenced,
there shall accrue, as additional rent hereunder, and be paid within fifteen
(15) days after Landlord shall have given to Tenant a statement or statements of
the amount due, Tenant's proportionate share of the increase, if any, of Annual
Operating Costs over Base Operating Costs.

                           (v)      Anything contained in the foregoing
provisions of this Article 4 to the contrary notwithstanding, in any instance in
which the Tenant shall have agreed in this Lease

                                      -6-

<PAGE>

or otherwise to provide any item or items of Annual Operating Costs partially or
entirely at its own expense, in calculating and allocating increases in Annual
Operating Costs over Base Operating Costs pursuant to the foregoing provisions
of this subsection, Landlord shall make appropriate adjustments, using
reasonable accounting principles, so as to avoid allocating to the Tenant the
same such item or items of the Base Operating Costs and Annual Operating Costs
(partially or entirely, as aforesaid) being provided to other tenants by
Landlord at Landlord's expense. Subject to the preceding sentence, if during all
or part of any calendar year, Landlord shall not furnish any item or items of
Annual Operating Costs to any portions of the Building because such portions are
not occupied or because such item is not required or desired by the tenant of
such portion or such tenant is itself obtaining and providing such item or for
other reasons, then, for the purposes of computing the additional rent payable
hereunder, the amount of Annual Operating Costs for such period shall be deemed
to be increased by an amount equal to the additional costs which would normally
have been incurred during such period by Landlord if it had at its own expense
furnished such item to such portion of the Building.

                  (f)      Partial Year. If only part of any calendar year shall
fall within the Term, the amount computed as additional rent with respect to
such calendar year under the provisions of subsection (c) of this Article shall
be prorated in proportion to the portion of such calendar year falling within
the Term (but the expiration or termination of the Term prior to the end of such
calendar year shall not impair the Tenant's obligation under this Lease to pay
such prorated portion of such additional rent with respect to that portion of
such year falling within the Term, which shall be paid on demand, as aforesaid).

                  (g)      Payment of Estimated Increase. Anything in this Lease
to the contrary notwithstanding, the Landlord shall be entitled to make from
time to time during the Term, a reasonable estimate of the amount of additional
rent which may become due under this Lease with respect to any calendar year and
to require the Tenant to pay to the Landlord, at the time and in the manner in
which the Tenant is required under this Lease to pay the monthly installment of
the Fixed Rent with respect to such month, with respect to each calendar month
during any such calendar year, one-twelfth (1/12) of the amount which Landlord
shall have estimated will become payable on account of increases in Annual
Operating Costs. In such event, Landlord shall cause the actual amount of the
additional rent to be computed and a statement thereof sent to the Tenant within
one hundred twenty (120) days following the end of the calendar year; the Tenant
or the Landlord, as the case may be, shall, within fifteen (15) days after such
statement is sent to Tenant, pay to the other the amount of any deficiency or
overpayment, respectively, therein.

                  (h)      Disputes. Any statement furnished to Tenant by
Landlord under the preceding paragraph or other provisions of this Article shall
constitute a final determination as between Landlord and Tenant of the
additional rent due from Tenant for the period represented thereby unless
Tenant, within thirty (30) days after a statement is furnished, shall have given
a notice to Landlord that Tenant disputes the correctness of the statement,
specifying in detail the basis for such assertion. Pending resolution of such a
dispute, Tenant shall pay the additional rent in accordance with the statement
furnished by Landlord. Landlord agrees, upon prior written request, during
normal business hours to make available for Tenant's inspection, at Landlord's
offices, Landlord's books and records which are relevant to any items in
dispute.

                  (i)      Lease Tax. If federal, state or local law now or
hereafter imposes any tax, assessment, levy or other charge (other than any
income tax) directly or indirectly upon the Landlord with respect to this Lease
or the value thereof, or upon the Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises, or
upon the rent, additional rent or any other sums payable under this Lease or
upon this transaction, except if and to the extent that the same are included in
the Annual Operating Costs (all of which are herein called "Lease Taxes") the
Tenant shall pay to the Landlord, as additional rent hereunder and upon demand,
the amount of such tax, assessment, levy or other charge, unless the Tenant
shall be prohibited by law from paying such tax, assessment levy or other
charge, in which event the Landlord shall be entitled, at its election, to
terminate this Lease upon ninety (90) days written notice to the Tenant.

         5.       COVENANT TO PAY RENT AND ADDITIONAL RENT; LATE CHARGE.

                  Tenant shall, without prior demand, notice, setoff or
deduction, pay the Fixed Rent and all other sums which may become due by Tenant
under this Lease, at the times, at the places and in the manner provided in this
Lease. All such other sums shall be payable as additional rent for all purposes
whether or not they would otherwise be considered rent. If any payment or any
part thereof to be made by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the terms of this
Lease shall have become overdue for a period in excess of ten (10) days such
overdue amount shall accrue interest from the date when such payment or part
thereof was due at the Lease Interest Rate (defined below) or such lesser amount
or rate, if any, as represents the maximum amount or rate Landlord lawfully may
charge in respect of Tenant in such circumstances. Nothing herein shall be
construed as waiving any rights of Landlord arising out of any defaults of
Tenant by reason of Landlord's assessing or accepting any such late payment, the
late charge and interest provided herein is separate and apart from any rights
relating to remedies of the Landlord after default by Tenant in the performance
or observance of the terms of this Lease. Without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, if Tenant shall be in default in the performance of any of its
obligations under this Lease, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to do
so), in addition to any other rights it may have in law or equity, cure such
default on behalf of Tenant and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for
any reasonable sums paid or costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default,
including interest thereon at the Lease Interest Rate or such lesser rate as
represents the maximum rate Landlord lawfully may charge in respect of Tenant in
such circumstances, reasonable attorney's fees and other legal expenses,
including also the said late charge and interest on all reasonable sums paid and
costs incurred by Landlord as aforesaid, which sums and costs together with late
charge and interest thereon shall be deemed additional rent hereunder. As used
in this Lease, the "Lease Interest Rate" shall mean four percent (4%) plus the
prime rate.

         6.       USE.

                  The Premises are to be used only by Tenant for general office
purposes and for no other purpose. Tenant shall not use or occupy the Premises
or any part thereof, or permit the Premises or any part thereof to be used or
occupied, other than as specified in the sentence immediately preceding. Tenant
shall permit its employees, invitees and guests to park only automobiles, or
similarly sized vehicles, on the Property. Such parking shall be unreserved and
be limited to Tenant's proportionate share of the Premises.

                                      -8-

         7.       ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING.

                  (a)      The Tenant shall not mortgage, pledge or encumber
this Lease. The Tenant shall not assign this Lease to a non-affiliate or sublet
or underlet the Premises or any part thereof to a non-affiliate, or permit any
other person or entity other than a non-affiliate to occupy the Premises or any
part thereof, without on each occasion first obtaining the written consent
thereto of the Landlord, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. An
assignment within the meaning of this Lease is intended to comprehend not only
the voluntary action of Tenant, but also any levy or sale on execution or other
legal process against Tenant's goods or other property of the leasehold, and
every assignment of assets for the benefit of creditors, and the filing of any
petition or order or any adjudication in bankruptcy or under any insolvency,
reorganization or other voluntary or compulsory procedure, and the calling of a
meeting of creditors, and the filing by or against Tenant of any petition or
notice for a composition with creditors, and any assignment by operation of law.
For purposes of the foregoing, a transfer, by any person or persons controlling
the Tenant on the date hereof, of such control to a person or persons not
controlling the Tenant on the date hereof shall be deemed to be an assignment of
this Lease. In the event of such a change in control Landlord shall not
unreasonably withhold its approval of the applicable transferee provided,
however, Landlord shall be entitled to condition to its approval upon receipt of
evidence as to the continuing financial capacity and viability of the transferee
in a manner and to a degree reasonably satisfactory to Landlord. As used herein
the term "affiliate" shall mean and refer to an entity under common control with
Tenant but shall not include any entity in which Internet Capital Group or its
constituent companies may invest from time to time.

                  (b)      If Tenant proposes to assign this Lease or sublet all
or any portion of the Premises to a non-affiliate, Tenant shall, prior to the
proposed effective date thereof (the "Effective Date"), deliver to Landlord a
copy of the proposed agreement and all ancillary agreements with the proposed
assignee or subtenant, as applicable. Landlord shall then have all the following
rights, any of which Landlord may exercise by written notice to Tenant given
within thirty (30) days after Landlord receives the foregoing documents:

                           (i)      With respect to a proposed assignment of
this Lease, the right to terminate this Lease on the Effective Date as if it
were the scheduled expiration date of the Term (the "Expiration Date");

                           (ii)     With respect to a proposed subletting of the
entire Premises, the right to terminate this Lease on the Effective Date as if
it were the Expiration Date;

                           (iii)    With respect to a proposed subletting of
less than the entire Premises, the right to terminate this Lease as to the
portion of the Premises affected by such subletting on the Effective Date, as if
it were the Expiration Date, in which case Tenant shall promptly execute and
deliver to Landlord an appropriate modification of this Lease in form
satisfactory to Landlord in all respects; or

                           (iv)     Landlord may consent to the proposed
assignment or sublease on such terms and conditions as Landlord may reasonably
require, including without limitation, the execution and delivery to Landlord by
the assignee of an assumption of liability agreement in

                                      -9-

<PAGE>

form satisfactory to Landlord, including an assumption by the assignee of all of
the obligations of Tenant and the assignee's ratification of an agreement to be
bound by all of the provisions of this Lease or, in the case of a sublease, the
execution and delivery by the subtenant of a written agreement with Landlord, in
such form and with such terms, covenants and conditions as may be required by
Landlord; or

                           (v)      Landlord may withhold its consent to the
proposed assignment or sublease, provided, however, that if Landlord declines to
exercise one of the options set forth in items (i) through (iii) above, Landlord
will not unreasonably withhold its consent so long as the identity, reputation
and financial strength of the proposed assignee or subtenant, and the proposed
use of the Premises, are reasonably acceptable to Landlord; provided further,
however, that Landlord shall in no event be required to consent to any sublease
of space for rent and other charges less than those that the sublessor is
required to pay or any assignment or subletting to a proposed assignee or
subtenant that is (w) a government or any subdivision, agency or instrumentality
thereof, (x) a school, college, university or educational institution of any
type (whether for profit or non-profit), (y) an employment, recruitment or
temporary help, service or agency or (z) another tenant of Landlord in the
Building.

                           (vi)     In the event that Landlord does consent to
the assignment or subletting, Tenant shall have ninety (90) days from its
receipt of Landlord's notice thereof to enter into the proposed sublease or
assignment with the prospective subtenant or assignee described in Tenant's
notice to Landlord. If such sublease or assignment has not been executed within
such time period and with such identified assignee or subtenant, the consent
given by Landlord shall be considered to have been withdrawn.

                  (c)      No assignment or sublease, whether with or without
the Landlord's consent, and whether or not to an affiliate, shall in any way
relieve or release the Tenant from liability for the performance of all terms,
covenants and conditions of this Lease.

                  (d)      In the event of any sublease or assignment by Tenant
of its interest in the Premises or this Lease or any portion thereof, whether or
not consented to by Landlord, each monthly installment of Fixed Rent payable
hereunder with respect to the Premises or the portion thereof subject to such
subletting or assignment shall be increased by an amount equal to (i) in the
case of any subletting, the Excess Rent (defined below) for such portion; and,
in the case of any assignment, the Excess Rent payable by the assignee as
amortized on a monthly basis over the remaining Term of this Lease with interest
at the Lease Interest Rate (defined at Article 5 hereof). As used herein,
"Excess Rent" shall mean a sum equal to fifty percent (50%) of the amount by
which the rent and other charges or other consideration paid by Tenant by any
subtenant or assignee exceeds the pro rata portion, for each month of such
subletting or assignment, of the Fixed Rent and additional rent for such space
then payable for such month by Tenant to Landlord pursuant to the provisions of
this Lease in the absence of this subsection (d), less the portion applicable to
such month, when amortized from the dates incurred over the remaining term of
the sublease or assignment, of Tenant's cost of improvements made or paid for by
Tenant to satisfy the needs of the subtenant, and legal fees, leasing
commissions and similar capital costs incurred by Tenant in connection with the
assignment or subletting.

                                      -10-

<PAGE>

                  (e)      If, pursuant to the exercise of the Landlord's option
in 7(b)(iii) above, this Lease terminates as to only a portion of the Premises,
the Fixed Rent and Tenant's Proportionate Share for the additional rent shall be
adjusted in proportion to the portion of the Premises affected by such
termination, as determined by Landlord; and Tenant, within ten (10) days after
demand, shall pay to Landlord Landlord's cost of any alterations necessary to
separate such portion of the Premises from the remainder of the Premises, plus
ten percent (10%) for Landlord's overhead.

                  (f)      If Landlord exercises any of its options under
section 7(b)(i), (ii) or (iii), Landlord may then lease the Premises or any
portion thereof to Tenant's proposed assignee or subtenant, as the case may be,
without liability whatsoever to Tenant.

                  (g)      In addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights
and remedies available to Landlord therefor, Landlord shall have the right to
terminate this Lease if Tenant seeks to assign, or underlet the Premises without
first obtaining Landlord's written consent. In the event that Landlord exercises
said right to terminate, said termination shall become effective on the date set
forth in Landlord's written notice.

                  (h)      Tenant agrees, in the event that (i) all or any part
of the Premises are to be sublet by Tenant, or (ii) this Lease is to be assigned
by Tenant, that Fox Realty Co. whether agent or otherwise, shall (A) have the
exclusive right to act as agent of the Tenant in any such subletting or
assignment, and (B) be entitled to collect from Tenant the customary commissions
for such services; provided, however, that in no such event shall Landlord be
liable for the payment of any such commissions.

         8.       IMPROVEMENT OF THE PREMISES.

                  (a)      Completion by Landlord; Changes. Landlord shall, in a
good and workmanlike manner, cause the Premises to be improved and completed in
accordance with the Polek Schwartz Sketch Plan SK-2 dated June 6, 2003 ("Tenant
Construction Plan"). Landlord reserves the right however:

                           (i)      to make substitutions of material of
equivalent grade and quality when and if any specified material shall not be
readily and reasonably available and

                           (ii)     to make changes necessitated by conditions
met in the course of construction, provided that Tenant's approval of any
substantial change shall first be obtained (which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld or delayed so long as there shall be general conformity
with Tenant's Layout Plans).

                  (b)      Standard Tenant Work; Special Tenant Work. In the
completion and preparation of the Premises in accordance with the Tenant
Construction Plans, Landlord agrees to perform at its own expense those items of
the work set forth on the schedule attached hereto as Exhibit "E" (herein
referred to as "Standard Tenant Work"), to the extent required by the Tenant
Construction Plans. All work to be performed by Landlord in addition to or in
substitution for Standard Tenant Work is hereinafter referred to as "Special
Tenant Work." All Special Tenant Work shall be furnished, installed and
performed by Landlord, utilizing a general contractor or construction manager
("Landlord's Contractor") selected by Landlord (which may be an affiliate

                                      -11-

<PAGE>

of Landlord or a partner in Landlord or an affiliate of a partner in Landlord)
for and on behalf of Tenant and at Tenant's sole expense, based on "Landlord's
Cost." "Landlord's Cost" shall be deemed to mean Landlord's out-of-pocket
contract or purchase price for materials, labor and services (including, without
limit, any reasonable contractor's fee for the contractor's overhead and profit
and charges for cutting, patching, cleaning up and removal of waste and debris),
plus architects' and engineers' fees, plus the product obtained by multiplying
all of the foregoing (as reduced by appropriate credits for substituted Standard
Tenant Work) by ten percent (10%) for Landlord's expenses and profit in handling
the substitution. Notwithstanding anything herein, Tenant's telephone and data
wiring and cabling (hereinafter called the "Direct Tenant Work") shall be
installed in accordance with the Tenant Construction Plans by contractors
contracting with Tenant and not with Landlord.

                  (c)      Payment for Work. Tenant shall pay Landlord for all
Special Tenant Work performed by Landlord from time to time during the progress
of the work, within fifteen (15) days after Landlord shall have given Tenant an
invoice or invoices therefor, in amounts representing Landlord's Cost of such
Special Tenant Work theretofore performed (including, for this purpose, material
for Special Tenant Work purchased and delivered to the Building to the date of
the invoice), less the amounts theretofore paid by Tenant on account. Upon
presentation of the final invoice, the total amount of the Landlord's Cost shall
be subject to verification by Tenant, and Tenant shall have reasonable access to
Landlord's cost records relative thereto.

                  (d)      Access; Acceptance of Work. Landlord shall afford
Tenant and its employees, agents and contractors access to the Premises, at
reasonable times prior to the Commencement Date and at Tenant's sole risk and
expense, for the purposes of inspecting and verifying the performance of Tenant
Work, and shall advise Landlord promptly of any objection to the performance of
such work. Access for such purposes shall not be deemed to constitute possession
or occupancy. Landlord shall promptly undertake and diligently prosecute the
correction of any defective work of which it is notified as aforesaid. On the
Commencement Date, it shall be conclusively deemed that all work theretofore
performed by or on behalf of Landlord and not objected to by Tenant as aforesaid
was satisfactorily performed in accordance with and meeting the requirements of
this Lease. The foregoing presumption shall not apply, however, to latent
defects in such work which could not reasonably have been discovered
theretofore, provided Tenant notifies Landlord thereof within thirty (30) days
after occupancy.

         9.       ALTERATIONS.

No alterations, additions or improvements shall be made to the Premises or any
part thereof by or on behalf of Tenant without first submitting a detailed
description thereof to Landlord and obtaining Landlord's written approval. All
alterations, additions or improvements made by Tenant and all fixtures attached
to the Premises shall become the property of Landlord and remain at the Premises
or, at Landlord's option, after written notice to Tenant, any or all of the
foregoing which may be designated by Landlord shall be removed at the cost of
Tenant before the expiration or sooner termination of this Lease and in such
event Tenant shall repair all damage to the Premises caused by the installation
or removal. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease, unless otherwise requested
by Landlord in writing, Tenant shall remove all Direct Tenant Work (defined at
Article 8(g) hereof) and shall repair all damage to the Premises caused by the
installation or removal of such Direct Tenant Work. Tenant shall not erect or
place, or cause or

                                      -12-

<PAGE>

allow to be erected or placed, any sign, advertising matter, lettering, stand,
booth, showcase or other article or matter in or upon the Premises and/or the
premises of which the Premises are a part, without the prior written consent of
Landlord. Tenant shall not place weights anywhere beyond the safe carrying
capacity of the structure.

         10.      RULES AND REGULATIONS.

The rules and regulations attached to this Lease, and such additions or
modifications thereof as may from time to time be made by Landlord upon written
notice to Tenant, shall be deemed a part of this Lease, as conditions, with the
same effect as though written herein, and Tenant also covenants that said rules
and regulations will be faithfully observed by Tenant, Tenant's employees, and
all those visiting the Premises or claiming under Tenant provided that such
rules and regulations are uniformly enforced by Landlord.

         11.      FIRE OR OTHER CASUALTY.

If, during the term of this Lease, or any renewal or extension thereof, the
Building is so damaged by fire or other casualty that the Premises are rendered
unfit for occupancy (whether or not the Premises are damaged), then, at
Landlord's option, the Term of this Lease upon written notice from Landlord
given with thirty (30) days after the occurrence of such damage, shall terminate
as of the date of the occurrence of such damage. In such case, Tenant shall pay
the rent apportioned to the time of such termination and Landlord may enter upon
and repossess the Premises without further notice. If Landlord does not elect to
terminate the Term of this Lease, Landlord, subject to reasonable delays for
insurance adjustments and to delays caused by matters beyond Landlord's
reasonable control, will repair whatever portion, if any, of the Premises or of
the Building serving the Premises which may have been damaged and Landlord may
enter and possess the Premises for that purpose; while the Tenant is deprived of
the Premises, the Fixed Rent shall be suspended in proportion to the number of
square feet of the Premises rendered untenantable. If the Premises or the
Building shall be damaged so that such damage does not render the Premises unfit
for occupancy, Landlord will repair whatever portion, if any, of the Premises or
of the Building serving the Premises which may have been damaged and Tenant will
continue in possession and rent will not be apportioned or suspended.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Article 11, (a) if any damage is
caused by or results from the negligence of Tenant, those claiming under Tenant,
or their employees or invitees, respectively, rent shall not be suspended or
apportioned and Tenant shall pay, as additional rent upon demand, the cost of
any repairs, made or to be made, of such damage and of any restorations, made or
to be made, as a result of such damage, (b) Landlord shall have no duty to
repair or replace any personal property, or any of Tenant's fixtures or
equipment or any alterations, improvements or decorations made by Tenant, or any
Direct Tenant Work (defined at Article 8(h) hereof), (c) Landlord shall have no
liability to Tenant for, and Tenant shall not be entitled to terminate this
Lease by virtue of, any delays in completion of repairs and (d) Landlord shall
have the right to terminate this Lease upon giving written notice to Tenant at
any time within thirty (30) days after the date of the damage if the Premises is
damaged by fire or other casualty during the last six (6) months of the Term
unless Tenant, having the right to renew the Term pursuant to an express
provision contained in this Lease, has effectively extended the Term for a term
in excess of one (1) year following the occurrence of the fire or other
casualty.

         12.      LANDLORD'S RIGHT TO ENTER.

                  Tenant will permit Landlord, Landlord's agents or employees or
any other person or persons authorized in writing by Landlord:

                  (a)      to inspect the Premises at any time,

                  (b)      to enter the Premises if Landlord shall so elect for
making alterations, improvements or repairs to the Building or for any purpose
in connection with the operation or maintenance of the Building, and

                  (c)      to enter and exhibit the Premises to be let.

                  No such entry shall be treated as a deprivation or
interference with Tenant's use and possession of the Premises.

         13.      INSURANCE.

                  (a)      Tenant will not do or commit any act or thing, or
suffer or permit any act or thing to be done or committed, as a result of which
either

                           (i)      any policy of insurance of any kind on or in
connection with the Property shall become void or suspended, or the insurance
risk on the building or any other portion of the Property shall (in the opinion
of the insuring companies) be rendered more hazardous. Tenant shall pay as
additional rent the amount of any increase of premiums for such insurance,
resulting from any breach of this covenant.

                  (b)      Tenant shall maintain throughout the Term, at
Tenant's expense, insurance against loss or liability in connection with bodily
injury, death, property damage and destruction, in or upon the Premises or the
remainder of the Property, and arising out of the use of all or any portion of
the same by Tenant or its agents, employees, officers, invitees, visitors and
guests, under policies of general public liability or commercial general
liability insurance having such limits as to each as may be reasonably required
by Landlord from time to time, but in any event of not less than Three Million
Dollars ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence and Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000.00)
annual aggregate for the Premises alone; and, without limitation of the
foregoing, within thirty (30) days after Landlord's request, Tenant shall have
such annual aggregate increased (by the same or different policies) to such
amount as Landlord may reasonably request by reason of occurrences during any
policy year. All liability policies shall name as additional insureds Landlord
and Landlord's mortgagees and (at Landlord's or any such mortgagee's request)
any landlord of or installment seller to Landlord, and any other person or
entity designated by Landlord or such mortgagee, shall provide that they shall
not be modified or canceled without at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice to Landlord and any other party designated as aforesaid and shall be
issued by insurers of recognized responsibility licensed to do business in
Pennsylvania. Copies of all such policies certified by the insurers to be true
and complete shall be supplied to Landlord and such mortgagees, paramount
lessors and installment sellers at all times.

                                      -14-

<PAGE>

                  (c)      Landlord shall maintain throughout the Term so-called
all-risk or fire and extended coverage insurance upon the Building. The cost of
the premiums for such insurance and of any endorsements thereto shall be deemed,
for purposes of Article 4 of this Lease, to be part of the costs of operating
and maintaining the Property.

                  (d)      Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the
contrary, each party hereto hereby releases the other party, its agents and
employees to the extent of the releasing party's actual recovery under its
insurance policies, from any and all liability for any loss or damage which may
be inflicted upon the property of such party, notwithstanding that such loss or
damage shall have arisen out of the negligent or intentionally tortious act or
omission of the other party, its agents or employees, provided, however, that
this release shall be effective only with respect to loss or damage occurring
during such times as the appropriate policy of insurance of the party so
releasing shall contain a clause to the effect that such release shall not
affect the said policy or the right of the insured to recover thereunder; each
party hereto shall use reasonable efforts to have such a clause included in its
said policies.

         14.      REPAIRS AND CONDITION OF PREMISES.

                  At the expiration or other termination of this Lease, Tenant
shall leave the Premises, and during the Term will keep the same, in good order
and condition, ordinary wear and tear, damage by fire or other casualty (which
fire or other casualty has not occurred through the negligence of Tenant or
those claiming under Tenant or their employees or invitees respectively) and
repairs to be performed by Landlord under Article 16(a)(v) of this Lease alone
excepted; for that purpose and, except as stated in this Lease, Tenant will make
all necessary repairs and replacements. Tenant will use every reasonable
precaution against fire and will give Landlord prompt notice of any damage to or
accident upon the Premises. Tenant will also at all times, subject to Article
16(a)(iii) of this Lease, remove all dirt, rubbish, waste and refuse from the
Premises and at the expiration or sooner termination of the Term will also have
had removed all its property therefrom, to the end that Landlord may again have
and repossess the Premises. Any of Tenant's property remaining on the Premises
on the date of the expiration or termination of the Term shall be deemed
abandoned by Tenant and may be removed and disposed of in such manner as
Landlord may, at its sole discretion, determine, and Tenant shall reimburse
Landlord, upon demand, for the cost of such removal and disposal, plus ten
percent (10%) for overhead.

         15.      COMPLIANCE WITH LAW.

                  Tenant shall comply promptly with all laws and ordinances,
including, without limitation, the Americans With Disabilities Act, and all
notices, requirements, orders, regulations and recommendations (whatever the
nature thereof may be) of any and all the federal, state, county or municipal
authorities or of the Board of Fire Underwriters or any insurance organizations,
associations or companies, with respect to the Premises and any property
appurtenant thereto and any use thereof; Tenant also agrees that it shall not
knowingly do or commit any act or thing, or suffer to be done or committed any
act or thing anywhere on the Property contrary to any of the laws, ordinances,
notices, requirements, orders, regulations and recommendations hereinabove
referred to in this Article.

conditioning to the Premises, Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM,
holidays excepted; holidays, as such term is used in this Lease, shall mean days
observed as holidays by the United States government, the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania, the County of Chester or the Township of Tredyffrin, as well as
days declared as holidays in any union contract affecting the operations of the
Building; heat, ventilation and air conditioning required by Tenant at other
times shall be supplied upon reasonable prior notice and shall be paid for by
Tenant, promptly upon billing, at such rates as Landlord shall establish
therefor; the air conditioning and heating systems intended to service the
Premises have been designed to maintain the inside temperatures set forth in
Paragraph C of Exhibit "E" hereto; Landlord shall not be responsible for the
failure of the air conditioning system to meet the aforesaid performance
specifications if such failure results from the occupancy of the Premises in
excess of that set forth in Paragraph C of Exhibit "E" or if Tenant installs and
operates machines and appliances, the installed electrical load of which, when
combined with the load of all lighting fixtures, exceeds the number of watts per
square foot of floor area set forth in said Paragraph C; if the Premises are
used in a manner exceeding the aforementioned occupancy and electric load
criteria, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, promptly upon billing, Landlord's costs
of supplying air conditioning resulting from such excess, at such rates as
Landlord shall establish therefor; if due to use of the Premises in a manner
exceeding the aforementioned occupancy and electrical load criteria, or due to
rearrangement of partitioning after the initial preparation of the Premises,
interference with normal operation of the heating, ventilating or air
conditioning in the Premises results, necessitating changes in the system
servicing the Premises, such changes may be made by Landlord upon request by
Tenant at Tenant's sole cost and expense, subject to the provisions of section
(b) of this Article 16. Tenant agrees at all times to cooperate fully with
Landlord and to abide by all of the regulations and requirements which Landlord
may prescribe for the proper functioning and protection of the said heating,
ventilating and air conditioning system; the foregoing heating, ventilating and
air conditioning services shall be subject to any statute, ordinance, rule,
regulation, resolution or recommendation for energy conservation which may be
promulgated by any governmental agency or organization and which Landlord in
good faith may elect to abide by or shall be required to abide by;

                           (ii)     Elevators. Provide passenger elevator
service to the Premises during all working days (Saturday, Sunday and holidays
excepted) from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with one (1) elevator subject to call at all
other times;

                           (iii)    Access. Furnish to Tenant's employees and
agents access to the Premises at all times, subject to compliance with such

Tenant; no trash removal services will be provided by Landlord for the removal
of trash or refuse of a

                                      -16-

character or quantity not customary for normal office users, unless Tenant shall
first agree to the payment of Landlord's cost thereof;

                           (v)      Repairs. Make all structural repairs to the
Building, all repairs which may be needed to the mechanical, HVAC, electrical
and plumbing systems in and servicing the Premises (excluding repairs to any
non-building standard fixtures or other improvements installed or made by or at
the request of Tenant requiring maintenance of a type or nature not customarily
provided by Landlord to office lessees of the Building), and all repairs to
exterior windows and glass (including caulking and weatherstripping); in the
event that any repair is required by reason of the negligence or abuse of Tenant
or its agents, employees, invitees or of any other person using the Premises
with Tenant's consent, express or implied, Landlord may make such repair and the
cost thereof, plus ten percent (10%) of such cost for Landlord's overhead, shall
be paid by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after demand, unless
Landlord shall have actually recovered or has the right to recover such cost
through insurance proceeds;

                           (vi)     Water. Provide hot and cold water, for
drinking, lavatory, toilet and ordinary cleaning purposes, at each floor;

                           (vii)    Public Areas. Keep and maintain the public
areas and facilities of the Building clean and in good working order, and the
sidewalks and parking areas adjoining the Building in good repair and free from
accumulations of snow and ice;

                           (viii)   Electricity. Furnish to Tenant electric
energy as required by Tenant but in no event exceeding the number of watts per
square foot set forth in Paragraph B 1 of Exhibit "E" hereto for the use of
Tenant in the Premises; Landlord shall install and maintain such meters as

Tenant and each other tenant of the Building of electric energy in the
respective areas of the Building leased to tenants; Landlord shall not be liable
in any way to Tenant for failure or defect in the supply or character of
electric energy furnished to the Premises or to the Building by reason of any
requirement, act or omission of the public utility serving the Building with
electricity or for any other reason whatsoever not attributable to Landlord;
Tenant agrees, to the extent, if any, in the future required by the Pennsylvania
Public Utility Commission or federal or state law as a necessary condition to
the supply of electric energy to the Premises, to become an individually metered
customer of such public utility, in which event, upon receipt of each bill to
Tenant from such public utility for electric service to the Premises, Tenant
shall pay directly to the public utility company the amount of such bill;
Landlord shall furnish and install all replacement tubes, lamps, bulbs and
ballasts required in the Premises, at Tenant's expense; Tenant's use of electric
energy in the Premises shall not at any time exceed the capacity of any of the
electrical conductors and equipment in or otherwise serving the Premises.

                  (b)      Special Equipment. Tenant shall not install any
equipment of any kind or nature whatsoever which would or might necessitate any
changes, replacements or additions to any of the heating, ventilating, air
conditioning, electric, sanitary, elevator or other systems serving the Premises
or any other portion of the Building; or to any of the services required of
Landlord under this Lease, without the prior written consent of the Landlord. In
the event that such consent is granted, such replacements, changes or additions
shall be paid for by Tenant. At

                                      -17-

the expiration or earlier termination of the Term, Tenant shall pay to Landlord
Landlord's cost of restoring such systems to their condition prior to such
replacements, changes or additions.

                  (c)      Interruption of Service. In case of accident,
strikes, inability to obtain supplies, breakdowns, repairs, renewals or
improvements to the Building or replacement of machinery therein, or for other
cause pertaining to the Building deemed sufficient by Landlord, the operation of
any of the elevators or other machinery or apparatus may be changed or
suspended. As to heat, ventilation, air conditioning, cleaning service,
electricity and elevator service, and any other services, Landlord shall not be
responsible or liable in any way for any failure, interruption or inadequacy in
the quantity or quality of the same where caused by war, civil commotion,
governmental restrictions, prohibitions or other regulations, strikes, labor
disturbances, inability to obtain adequate supplies or materials, casualties,
repairs, replacements, or causes beyond Landlord's reasonable control whether
similar or dissimilar to the foregoing.

         17.      NOTICE OF BREAKAGE, FIRE, THEFT.

                  Tenant shall give to Landlord prompt written notice, but in
any event no longer than forty-eight (48) hours, of any

                  (a)      accident or breakage or defects in the window glass,
wires, plumbing or heating ventilating or cooling apparatus, elevators or other
apparatus, walls or ceiling tiles,

                  (b)      fire or other casualty, or

                  (c)      theft.

         18.      RELEASE OF LANDLORD.

                  Landlord shall not be held responsible for and is hereby
expressly relieved from any and all liability by reason of any injury, loss, or
damage to any person or property in or about the Premises or the Property due to
any cause whatsoever and whether the loss, injury or damage be to the person or
property of Tenant or any other person, and whether or not due to any oversight,
neglect or negligence of Landlord occurring before or after the execution of
this Lease; provided, however, that Landlord shall not be relieved from such
liability if such injury, loss or damage arises from or relates to the gross
negligence of Landlord. Tenant further agrees to indemnify, defend and save
Landlord harmless from and against all claims by any employee or invitee of
Tenant made on account of such injury, loss or damage, including but not limited
to reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal expenses; provided, however, that
Tenant shall have no obligation to indemnify, defend and save Landlord harmless
if such injury, loss or damage arises from or relates to the gross negligence of
Landlord.

         19.      MECHANICS' AND OTHER LIENS.

                  (a)      Tenant covenants that it shall not (and has no
authority to) create or allow any encumbrance against the Premises, the
Property, the Building or any part of any of any of them or Landlord's interest
therein.

                                      -18-

<PAGE>

                  (b)      Tenant covenants that it shall not suffer or permit
to be created, or to remain, any lien or claim thereof (arising out of any work
done or services, material, equipment or supplies furnished for or at the
request of Tenant or by or for any contractor or subcontractor of Tenant) which
is or may become a lien upon the Premises, the Property, the Building or any
part of any of any of them or the income therefrom or any fixture, equipment or
similar property therein.

                  (c)      If any lien or claim shall be filed, Tenant, within
ten (10) days after the filing thereof, shall cause the same to be discharged of
record by payment, deposit, bond or otherwise. If Tenant shall fail to cause
such lien or claim to be discharged and removed from record within that period,
then, without obligation to investigate the validity thereof and in addition to
any other right or remedy Landlord may have, Landlord may, but shall not be
obligated to, contest the lien or claim or discharge it by payment, deposit,
bond or otherwise; and Landlord shall be entitled, if Landlord so decides, to
compel the prosecution of an action for the foreclosure of such lien by the
lienor and to pay the amount of the judgment in favor of the lienor with
interest and costs. Any amounts so paid by Landlord and all costs and expenses,
including attorneys' fees, incurred by Landlord in connection therewith,
together with interest at the Lease Interest Rate from the respective dates of
Landlord's making of the payment or incurring of the cost or expense, shall
constitute additional rent payable by Tenant under this Lease and shall be paid
by Tenant to Landlord within fifteen (15) days after demand.

                  (d)      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this
Lease or in any other writing signed by Landlord, neither this Lease nor any
other writing signed by Landlord shall be construed as evidencing, indicating,
or causing an appearance that any erection, construction, alteration or repair
to be done, or caused to be done, by Tenant is or was in fact for the immediate
use and benefit of Landlord. Further, notwithstanding anything contained herein
to the contrary, nothing contained in or contemplated by this Lease shall be
deemed or construed in any way to constitute the consent or request on the part
of Landlord for the performance of any work or services or the furnishing of any
materials for which any lien could be filed against the Premises or the Building
or the Property or any part of any thereof, nor as giving Tenant any right,
power, or authority to contract for or permit the performance of any work or
services or the furnishing of any materials for which any lien could be filed
against the Premises, the Building, the Property or any part of any thereof.

                  (e)      Prior to commencement of any work or the delivery of
any material to the Premises by any contractor, subcontractor or materialman
engaged by Tenant, Tenant shall deliver to the Landlord a waiver of liens
(herein called "Waiver of Liens") from each such contractor in form satisfactory
to Landlord, bearing a stamp from the Prothonotary's Office in Chester County
indicating the timely filing of the Waiver of Liens under the Mechanics Lien Law
of Pennsylvania, 49 P.S.A. '14.02. The Waiver of Liens shall provide, among
other things, that the contractor, for itself and all subcontractors,
materialmen and other persons providing labor, services, material or work under
Tenant, waives any and all lien rights that it or any of them may have against
Landlord's interest in the Property or any part thereof. Tenant shall file the
Waivers of Liens at Tenant's sole cost and expense.

which became due up to the time of such termination plus interest from the dates
such rent and other sums were due to the date of the judgment at the Lease
Interest Rate; plus

                                    (B)      the present value at the time of
judgment of the amount by which the unpaid rent and other sums which would have
become due (had this Lease not been terminated) after termination until the date
of the judgment exceeds the amount of loss of such rental and other sums Tenant
proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

                                    (C)      the amount (as discounted at the
rate of four percent (4%) per annum) by which the unpaid rent and other sums
which would have become due (had this Lease not been terminated) for the balance
of the term after the date of judgment exceeds the amount of loss of such rental
and other sums that Tenant proves could have been reasonably avoided; plus

                                    (D)      any other amount necessary to
compensate Landlord for all the detriment proximately caused by Tenant's failure
to perform its obligations under this Lease or which in the ordinary course
would be likely to result therefrom including, without limitation, the cost of
repairing the Premises and reasonable attorneys fees; plus

                                    (E)      at Landlord's election, such other
amounts in addition to or in lieu of the foregoing as may be permitted by
applicable law.

                                             As used in the foregoing clause
(B), the "present value at the time of judgment" shall be computed by adding to
the rent past due or which would have become due interest at the Lease Interest
Rate from the dates such rent was or would have become due to the date of the
judgment; and/or

                           (iii)    Landlord may terminate Tenant's right of
possession and may reenter and repossess the Premises by legal proceedings,
force or otherwise, without terminating this Lease. After reentry or retaking or
recovering of the Premises, whether by termination of this Lease or not,
Landlord may, but shall be under no obligation to, make such alterations and
repairs, as Landlord may deem then necessary or advisable and relet the Premises
or any part or parts thereof, either in Landlord's name or otherwise, for a term
or terms which may at Landlord's option be less than or exceed the period which
otherwise would have constituted the balance of the term of this Lease and at
such rent or rents and upon such other terms and conditions as in Landlord's
sole discretion may seem advisable and to such person or persons as may in
Landlord's sole discretion seem best; and whether or not the Premises are relet,
Tenant shall be liable for any loss, for such period as is or would have been
the balance of the term of the Lease, of rent and all other sums payable under
this lease, plus the reasonable cost and expenses of reletting and of
redecorating, remodeling or making repairs and alterations to the Premises for
the purpose or reletting, the amount of such liability to be computed monthly
and to be paid by Tenant to Landlord from time to time upon demand. Landlord
shall in no event be

                                      -21-

<PAGE>

liable for, nor shall any damages or other sums to be paid by Tenant to Landlord
be reduced by, failure to relet the Premises provided, however, Landlord shall
apply the rent or other sums received from a reletting against the sums due from
Tenant under this Article 21. Tenant shall not be entitled to any rents or other
sums received by Landlord in excess of those provided for in this Lease. Tenant
agrees that Landlord may file suit to recover any rent and other sums falling
due under the terms of this Article from time to time and that no suit or
recovery of any amount due hereunder to Landlord shall be any defense to any
subsequent action brought for any other amount due hereunder to Landlord.
Tenant, for Tenant and Tenant's successors and assigns, hereby irrevocably
constitutes and appoints Landlord, Tenant's and their agent to collect the rents
due or to become due under all subleases of the Premises or any parts thereof
without in any way affecting Tenant's obligation to pay any unpaid balance of
rent or any other sum due or to become due hereunder. Notwithstanding any
reletting without termination, Landlord may at any time thereafter elect to
terminate this Lease for Tenant's previous breach.

                                    Whenever Landlord shall have the right to
reenter the Premises, it shall have the right to remove all persons and property
from the Premises and either treat such property as abandoned or at Landlord's
option store it in a public warehouse or elsewhere at the cost of and for the
account of Tenant, all without service of notice or resort to legal process and
without being deemed guilty of trespass, or becoming liable for any loss or
damage which may be occasioned thereby.

                                    Tenant waives the right to any notice to
remove as may be specified in the Landlord and Tenant Act of Pennsylvania, Act
of April 6, 1951, as amended, or any similar or successor provision of law.

                                    For the purposes of computing "the whole
balance of rent and all other sums payable hereunder for the entire balance of
the term of this Lease," "the unpaid rent and other sums which would have become
due (had this Lease not been terminated) after termination until the date of the
judgment" and "the unpaid rent and other sums which would have become due (had
this Lease not been terminated) for the balance of the term after the date of
judgment," as such quoted or any similar phrases are used in this Article 21,
the amounts of additional rents which would have been due per year under this
Lease shall be such amounts as Landlord shall reasonably estimate to be the per
annum rates of additional rent for the calendar year during which this Lease was
terminated or during which rent was accelerated, increasing annually on the
first day of each calendar year thereafter at the rate of seven percent per
annum compounded.

                                    The parties recognize that no adequate
remedy at law may exist for a breach of Articles 6, 7 and 10 hereof.
Accordingly, Landlord may obtain specific performance of any provision of
Articles 6, 7 and 10 hereof. Neither such right nor its exercise shall limit any
other remedies which Landlord may have against Tenant for a breach of such
Articles, including, without limitation, all remedies available under this
Article 21. The reference herein to specific performance in connection with
Articles 6, 7 and 10 shall not preclude the availability of specific
performance, in any appropriate case, for the breach or threatened breach of any
other provision of this Lease.

                                      -22-

<PAGE>

                                    In addition to other remedies available to
Landlord herein, Landlord may (but shall not be obligated to do so), cure any
default on behalf of Tenant, and Tenant shall reimburse Landlord upon demand for
all reasonable costs incurred by Landlord in curing such default, including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal expenses,
together with interest thereon at the Lease Interest Rate, which costs and
interest thereon shall be deemed additional rent hereunder.

                  As used in this Article 21, the "term" shall include the Term
of this Lease and any renewals or extensions thereof to which Tenant shall have
become bound.

         22.      REMEDIES CUMULATIVE.

                  All remedies available to Landlord under this Lease and at law
and in equity shall be cumulative and concurrent. No termination of this Lease
or taking or recovering possession of the Premises shall deprive Landlord of any
remedies or actions against Tenant for rent, for charges or for damages for the
breach of any covenant or condition herein contained, nor shall the bringing of
any such action for rent, charges or breach of covenant or condition, nor the
resort to any other remedy or right for the recovery of rent, charges or demands
for such breach be construed as a waiver or release of the right to insist upon
the forfeiture and to obtain possession. No reentering or taking possession of
the Premises, or making of repairs, alterations or improvements thereto, or
reletting thereof, shall be construed as an election on the part of Landlord to
terminate this Lease unless written notice of such intention be given by
Landlord to Tenant. The failure of Landlord to insist upon strict and/or prompt
performance of the terms, agreements, covenants and conditions of this Lease or
any of them, and/or the acceptance of such performance thereafter shall not
constitute or be construed as a waiver of Landlord's right to thereafter enforce
the same strictly according to the tenor thereof in the event of a continuing or
subsequent default.

         23.      EXCEPTED FROM PREMISES.

                  In the event that Exhibits "A" or "D" show as being within the
Premises, hallways, passageways, stairways, elevators, or other means of access
to and from the Premises or the upper and lower portions of the Building, the
space occupied by the said hallways, passageways, stairways, elevators and other
means of access, although within the Premises as described hereinabove, shall be
taken to be excepted therefrom and reserved to Landlord or to the other lessees
of the Building and the same shall not be considered a portion of the Premises.
All ducts, pipes, wires or other equipment used in the operation of the
Building, or any part thereof, and any space occupied thereby, whether or not
within the Premises as described hereinabove, shall likewise be excepted and
reserved from the Premises, and Tenant shall not remove or tamper with or use
the same and will permit Landlord to enter the Premises to service, replace,
remove or repair the same.

         24.      LEASE SUBORDINATED.

                  (a)      This Lease shall be subject and subordinate at all
times to the lien of any mortgage, deed of trust, ground lease, installment sale
agreement and/or other instrument or encumbrance heretofore or hereafter placed
upon any or all of Landlord's interest or estate in the

                                      -23-

<PAGE>

Premises or the remainder of the Property and of all renewals, modifications,
consolidations, replacements and extensions thereof (all of which are
hereinafter referred to collectively as a "mortgage"), all automatically and
without the necessity of any further action on the part of the Tenant to
effectuate such subordination provided that at Tenant's request Landlord have
the mortgagee deliver a subordination, non-disturbance and attornment agreement
to Tenant in the form attached hereto as Exhibit "H". The Tenant shall, at the
request of the holder of any such mortgage, attorn to such holder, and shall
execute, enseal, acknowledge and deliver, upon demand by the Landlord or such
holder, such further instrument or instruments evidencing such subordination of
the Tenant's right, title and interest under this Lease to the lien of any such
mortgage, and such further instrument or instruments evidencing and elaborating
such attornment, as shall be desired by such holder.

                  (b)      Anything contained in the foregoing provisions of
this Article to the contrary notwithstanding, any such holder may at any time
subordinate its mortgage to the operation and effect of this Lease, without the
necessity of obtaining the Tenant's consent thereto, by giving notice of the
same in writing to the Tenant, and thereupon this Lease shall be deemed to be
prior to such mortgage without regard to their respective dates of execution,
delivery and/or recordation, and in that event such holder shall have the same
rights with respect to this Lease as though this Lease shall have been executed,
delivered and recorded prior to the execution and delivery of such mortgage.

         25.      CONDEMNATION.

                  (a)      If the whole or a substantial part of the Building
shall be taken or condemned for a public or quasi-public use under any statute
or by right of eminent domain or private purchase in lieu thereof by any
competent authority, Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord and shall not
have any claim or right to any portion of the amount that may be awarded as
damages or paid as a result of any such condemnation or purchase including,
without limit, any right of Tenant to damages for loss of its leasehold; all
right of Tenant to damages therefor are hereby assigned by Tenant to Landlord.
The foregoing shall not, however, deprive Tenant of any separate award for
moving expenses, business dislocation damages or for any other award which would
not reduce the award payable to Landlord. Upon the date the right to possession
shall vest in the condemning authority, this Lease shall cease and terminate
with rent adjusted to such date and Tenant shall have no claim against Landlord
for the value of any unexpired term of this Lease.

                  (b)      In the event of any temporary eminent domain taking
of the Premises or any part thereof for temporary use, this Lease shall not be
affected in any manner, the Term shall not be reduced, and the Tenant shall
continue to pay in full the Fixed Rent, additional rent and all other sums of
money and charges in this Lease reserved and provided to be paid by Tenant.
Tenant shall be entitled to receive for itself such portion of any eminent
domain award made for such temporary use with respect to the period of the
taking which is within the Term; provided that if such temporary taking shall
remain in full force at the expiration or earlier termination of this Lease, the
award shall be apportioned between Landlord and Tenant in proportion to the
respective portions of the period of temporary taking which falls within the
Term and which falls outside the Term.

                                      -24-

         26.      PARAMOUNT LEASE.

                  If Landlord is or becomes lessee or installment purchaser of
the Premises or of the premises of which the Premises are a part, then Tenant
agrees that Tenant takes possession subordinate to the interest of Landlord's
lessor or installment seller, its successors and assigns, but notwithstanding
the foregoing, in case Landlord's tenancy or interest as installment purchaser
shall terminate either by expiration, forfeiture or otherwise, then Landlord's
lessor or installment seller, its heirs, administrators, executors, successors
and assigns, shall have all the rights of Landlord under this Lease, following
such termination. In the event of any such termination of Landlord's tenancy or
interest as installment purchaser, Tenant hereby agrees to attorn to Landlord's
lessor, its heirs, administrators, executors, successors and assigns, and to
recognize such lessor or installment seller, its heirs, administrators,
executors, successors and assigns, as Tenant's Landlord for the balance of the
term of this Lease and any extensions or renewals of this Lease. Tenant shall
execute, enseal, acknowledge and deliver, upon demand by Landlord or Landlord's
lessor or installment seller, such further instrument or instruments evidencing
such subordination of Tenant's right, title and interest under this Lease to the
interests of such lessor or installment seller and such further instrument or
instruments of attornment, as shall be desired by such lessor or installment
seller.

         27.      NOTICES.

(i) hand delivered, or (ii) mailed by registered or certified mail of the United
States Postal Service, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or (iii)

have been effectively given, upon the earlier of (i) actual delivery, (ii)
refusal of acceptance at the proper address, or (iii) three (3) business days

         28.      DEFINITION OF "THE LANDLORD".

                  The word "Landlord" is used herein to include the Landlord
named above and any subsequent owner of such Landlord's interest in the Building
in which the Premises are located, as well as their respective heirs, personal
representatives, successors and assigns, each of whom shall have the same
rights, remedies, powers, authorities and privileges as it would have had had it
originally signed this Lease as Landlord, including the right to proceed in its
own name to enter judgment, but any such person, whether or not named herein,
shall have no liability hereunder after it ceases to hold such interest. Neither
Landlord nor any principal of or partner in Landlord, whether disclosed or
undisclosed, shall be under any personal liability with respect to any of the
provisions of this Lease and if Landlord shall default in the performance of
Landlord's obligations under this Lease or otherwise, Tenant shall look solely
to the equity of Landlord in its interest in the Property for the satisfaction
of Tenant's remedies. It is expressly understood and agreed that Landlord's
liability under the terms, covenants, conditions, warranties and obligations of
this Lease shall in no event exceed the loss of Landlord's equity in its
interest in the Property.

         29.      DEFINITION OF "THE TENANT".

                  As used herein, the term "Tenant" shall be deemed to refer to
each and every person and/or entity hereinabove named as such and to such
persons' and/or entities' respective heirs, personal representatives, successors
and assigns, each of whom shall have the same obligations, liabilities, rights
and privileges as it would have possessed had it originally executed this Lease
as the Tenant. However, no such rights, privileges or powers shall inure to the
benefit of any assignee of the Tenant, immediate or remote, unless the
assignment to such assignee has been approved in writing by Landlord pursuant to
the provisions of this Lease and such assignee shall have executed and delivered
to Landlord the written documents required by Landlord

                                      -26-

<PAGE>

referred to hereinbefore. Each and every person hereinabove named as the Tenant
shall be bound jointly and severally by the terms, covenants and agreements
contained herein.

         30.      ESTOPPEL CERTIFICATE; MORTGAGEE LEASE COMMENTS.

                  (a)      Tenant shall from time to time, within ten (10) days
after Landlord shall have requested in writing the same of Tenant, execute,
enseal, acknowledge and deliver to Landlord a written instrument in recordable
form.

                           (i)      certifying that

                                    (A)      this Lease is in full force and
effect and has not been modified, supplemented or amended in any way (or, if
there have been modifications, supplements or amendments thereto, that it is in
full force and effect as modified, supplemented or amended and stating such
modifications, supplements and amendments) and that the Lease (as modified,
supplemented or amended, as aforesaid) represents the entire agreement among
Landlord and Tenant as to the Premises and the leasehold;

                                    (B)      the dates to which the Fixed Rent,
additional rent and other charges arising under this Lease have been paid, if
any;

                                    (C)      the amount of any prepaid rents or
credits due to Tenant, if any; and

                                    (D)      if applicable, Tenant has accepted
the possession of the Premises and has entered into occupancy of the Premises
and the date on which the Term shall have commenced and the corresponding
expiration date;

                           (ii)     stating whether or not to the best knowledge
of the signer of such certificate all conditions under the Lease to be performed
by Landlord prior thereto have been satisfied and whether or not Landlord is
then in default in the performance of any covenant, agreement or condition
contained in this Lease and specifying, if any, each such unsatisfied condition
and each such default of which the signer may have knowledge; and

                           (iii)    stating any other fact or certifying any
other condition reasonably requested by Landlord or requested by any mortgagee
or prospective mortgagee or purchaser of the Property or of any interest
therein. It is intended that any statement delivered pursuant to the provisions
of this Article be relied upon by any such purchaser or mortgagee.

         31.      SEVERABILITY.

                  No determination or adjudication by any court, governmental or
administrative body or agency or otherwise that any provision of this Lease or
of any amendment hereto or modification hereof is invalid or unenforceable in
any instance shall affect the validity or the enforceability

                  (a)      of any other provision of this Lease, of such
amendment or modification, or any other such amendment or modification, or

                                      -27-

<PAGE>

                  (b)      of such provision in any other instance or
circumstance which is not within the jurisdiction of such court, body or agency
or controlled by its said determination or adjudication. Each and every
provision hereof and of each such amendment or modification shall be and remain
valid and enforceable to the fullest extent allowed by law, and shall be
construed wherever possible as being consistent with applicable law.

         32.      MISCELLANEOUS.

                  (a)      The Building may be designated and known by any name
Landlord may choose and such name may be changed from time to time at Landlord's
sole discretion. The Titles appearing in connection with various sections of
this Lease are for convenience only. They are not intended to indicate all of
the subject matter in the text and they are not to be used in interpreting this
Lease nor for any other purpose in the event of any controversy.

                  (b)      the term "person" shall be deemed to mean a natural
person, a trustee, a corporation, a partnership and any other form of legal
entity;

                  (c)      all references in the singular or plural number shall
be deemed to have been made, respectively, in the plural or singular number as
well. Each and every document or other writing which is referred to herein as
being attached hereto or is otherwise designated herein as an exhibit hereto is
hereby made a part hereof.

                  (d)      Tenant shall pay upon demand all of Landlord's
reasonable costs, charges and expenses, including the reasonable fees and
out-of-pocket expenses of counsel, agents and others retained by Landlord,
incurred in enforcing Tenant's obligations hereunder or incurred by Landlord in
any litigation, negotiation or transaction in which Tenant causes Landlord
without Landlord's fault to become involved or concerned.

                  (e)      Landlord shall have the right at any time, and from
time to time, during the Term of this Lease, to unilaterally amend the
provisions of this Lease if Landlord is advised by its counsel that all or any
portion of the monies paid by Tenant to Landlord hereunder are, or may be deemed
to be, unrelated business income within the meaning of the United States
Internal Revenue Code or regulations issued thereunder, and Tenant agrees that
it will execute all documents or instruments necessary to effect such amendment
or amendments, provided that no such amendment shall result in Tenant having to
pay in the aggregate a larger sum of money on account of its occupancy of the
Premises under the terms of this Lease as so amended, and provided further that
no such amendment or amendments shall result in Tenant receiving under the
provisions of this Lease less services than it is entitled to receive, nor
services of a lesser quality.

                  (f)      No waiver of any provision of this Lease shall be
implied by any failure of Landlord to enforce any remedy allowed for the
violation of such provision, even if such violation is continued or repeated,
and no express waiver shall affect any provision other than the one(s) specified
in such waiver and only then for the time and in the manner specifically stated.
No receipt of monies by Landlord from Tenant after the termination of this Lease
shall in any way alter the length of the Term or of Tenant's right of possession
hereunder or after the giving of any notice shall reinstate, continue or extend
the Term or affect any notice given to Tenant

                                      -28-

<PAGE>

prior to the receipt of such moneys, it being agreed that after the service of
notice or the commencement of a suit or after final judgment for possession of
the Premises, Landlord may receive and collect any rent due, and the payment of
said rent shall not waive or affect said notice, suit or judgment.

                  (g)      It is mutually agreed by and between Landlord and
Tenant that they hereby waive trial by jury in any action, proceeding or
counterclaim brought by either of the parties hereto against the other on any
matter whatsoever arising out of or in any way connected with this Lease, the
relationship of Landlord and Tenant, Tenant's use or occupancy of the Premises
or claim of injury or damage.

                  (h)      Tenant acknowledges and agrees that Landlord and
Landlord's agents have made no representation, agreements, conditions,
warranties, understandings, or promises, either oral or written, other than as
herein set forth, with respect to this Lease, the Building, the Property, the
Premises, or otherwise.

         33.      BROKERS.

                  Tenant represents and warrants that it did not deal with any
broker, finder or other intermediary to whom a fee or commission is or will
become payable in connection with this Lease except Fox Realty Co. and Grubb &
Ellis Company.

         34.      SECURITY DEPOSIT. NO SECURITY DEPOSIT SHALL BE REQUIRED.

         35.      QUIET ENJOYMENT.

                  Tenant, upon paying the Fixed Rent, additional rent and all
other charges herein provided for and observing and keeping all covenants,
agreements and conditions of this Lease on its part to be kept, shall quietly
have and enjoy the Premises during the term of this Lease without hindrance or

exceptions, reservations and conditions of this Lease.

         36.      RIGHTS OF MORTGAGE HOLDER.

                  If the holder of a mortgage covering the Premises shall have
given prior written notice to Tenant that it is the holder of such mortgage and
such notice includes the address at which notices to such mortgagee are to be
sent, then Tenant agrees to give to such holder notice simultaneously with any
notice given to Landlord to correct any default of Landlord as hereinabove
provided and agrees that the holder of record of such mortgage shall have the
right, within the greater of thirty (30) days thereafter or the same period of
time accorded Landlord under this Lease after receipt of said notice, to correct
or remedy such default before Tenant may take any action under this Lease by
reason of such default.

                                      -29-

<PAGE>

Renewal Option must be exercised, if at all, by written notice given by Tenant
to Landlord (the "Renewal Notice") not later than twelve (12) months prior to
the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Renewal Option shall be
null and void and Tenant shall have no right to extend the Term if on the date
Tenant exercises the Renewal Option or on the date immediately preceding the
commencement date of the Renewal Term: (a) Tenant is in default under this
Lease; or (b) Tenant shall not be creditworthy in the judgment of the Landlord,
or (c) Tenant shall have previously assigned this Lease or sublet all or any
portion of the Premises unless such assignment or sublet was to an affiliate of
Tenant and permitted under the terms and conditions of this Lease. During the
Renewal Term all of the terms and conditions set forth in this Lease applicable
to the Premises during the initial Term shall apply except that: (i) the Fixed
Rent payable by the Tenant for the Premises during the Renewal Term shall be the
then Current Market Rent (as hereinafter defined). For purposes of this Article
37 the term "Current Market Rent" shall be the then rental rate for comparable
space in Chesterbrook Corporate Center(R) provided, however, notwithstanding
anything contained in this Article 37 to the contrary, in no event shall the
Fixed Rent during the Renewal Term be less than the Fixed Rent in effect during
the final lease year of the initial Term. Landlord and Tenant shall endeavor to
mutually agree upon the Current Market Rate within forty-five (45) days after
Landlord's receipt of the Renewal Notice. If Landlord and Tenant are unable to
agree upon the Current Market Rent within such forty-five (45) day period, the
Term shall expire on the Expiration Date and the terms and conditions of this
Article 37 shall be of no further force and effect.

         38.      WHOLE AGREEMENT.

                  It is expressly understood and agreed by and between all the
parties hereto that this Lease and any riders attached hereto and forming part
hereof set forth all the promises, agreements, warranties, representations and
understandings between Landlord and Tenant relative to the Premises and this
leasehold, and that there are no promises, agreements, conditions, warranties,
representations or understandings, either oral or written, between them other
than as herein set forth. It is further understood and agreed that, except as
herein otherwise provided, no subsequent alteration, amendment, understanding or
addition to this Lease shall be binding upon Landlord or Tenant unless reduced
to writing and signed by them.

                  IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this
Lease the day and year aforesaid.

                  premises in a manner satisfactory to Landlord.

         2.       Filing of Plans: Landlord shall without delay file all
                  necessary plans and obtain all necessary approvals and permits

                  therefore installed and, provided such omission shall not
                  delay Landlord's work, Landlord shall not be obligated to
                  install the same. Tenant shall not be entitled to any credit
                  for any such item omitted against any additional item or any
                  item of a different kind of character.

F.       WORK PERFORMED BY TENANT PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF LEASE

                  Landlord may elect to permit Tenant and its agents to enter
                  the demised premises prior to the date specified for the
                  commencement of the term of said Lease in order that Tenant
                  may perform through its own contractors such other work and
                  decorations as Tenant may desire at the same time that
                  Landlord's contractors are working in the space. The foregoing
                  approval to enter prior to commencement of the term, however,
                  is conditioned upon Tenant's workmen and mechanics working in
                  harmony and not interfering with the labor employed by
                  Landlord, Landlord's mechanics or contractors or by any other
                  Tenant or their contractors and compliance with the terms of
                  the Lease. If at any time, such entry shall cause disharmony
                  or interference therewith, this license may be withdrawn by
                  Landlord upon twenty-four (24) hours written notice to Tenant
                  and further provided that Workmen's Compensation and Public
                  Liability Insurance and Property Damage Insurance, with Hold
                  Harmless provision, all in amounts and with companies and on
                  forms satisfactory to us, shall be provided and at all times
                  maintained by Tenant's contractors engaged in the performance
                  of the work, and before proceeding with work, certificates of
                  such insurance shall be furnished to Landlord.

                  Such entry shall be deemed to be under all of the terms,
                  covenants, provisions and conditions of the said Lease except
                  as to the covenant to pay rent. Landlord shall not be liable
                  in any way for any injury, loss or damage which may occur to
                  any of Tenant's decorations or installations so made prior to
                  the commencement of the term of the Lease, the same being
                  solely at Tenant's risk.

                  The provisions of this Exhibit "E" are specifically subject to
                  the provisions of the Lease.

occupants or protection of property.

         14.      Landlord reserves the right to rescind, suspend or modify any
rules or regulations and to make such other rules or regulations as, in
Landlord's judgment, may from time to time be needful for the safety, care,
maintenance, operation and cleanliness of the Building as a first class office
building, or for the preservation of good order therein. Notice of any action by
Landlord referred to in this paragraph, given to Tenant, shall have the same
force and effect as if originally made a part of the foregoing Lease. New rules

times.

         16.      Tenant shall keep the windows and doors of the Premises,

"To Let" or similar notice upon the Premises, which notice shall not be removed
or obliterated by the Tenant, during the six months previous to the expiration
of the then current Term of this Lease, and any such entering shall not be
treated as a deprivation of Tenant's use of the Premises or work an eviction of
Tenant or a recession of this Lease.

         20.      These rules and regulations are not intended to give Tenant
any rights or claims in the event the Landlord does not enforce any of them
against any other tenants or if Landlord does not have the right to enforce them
against any other tenants and such non-enforcement will not constitute a waiver
as to Tenant.

of a transfer of the Property by deed in lieu of foreclosure (any such purchaser
or transferee and each of their respective successors or assigns, including

receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Tenant, Borrower and
Lender agree as follows:

         1.       Tenant and Borrower agree for the benefit of Lender that:

                  (a)      Tenant shall not pay, and Borrower shall not accept,
                           any rent or additional rent more than one month in
                           advance except to the extent Tenant has pre-paid as a
                           result of Landlord's estimates being in excess of
                           actual additional rent;

                  (b)      Except as specifically provided in the Lease, Tenant
                           and Borrower will not enter into any agreement for
                           the cancellation of the Lease or the surrender of the
                           Demised Premises without Lender's prior written
                           consent;

                  (c)      Tenant and Borrower will not enter into any agreement
                           amending or modifying the Lease without Lender's
                           prior written consent, except for amendments or
                           modifications specifically contemplated in the Lease
                           for confirming the lease commencement date, the rent
                           commencement date, the term, the square footage
                           leased, the renewal or extension of the Lease, or the
                           leasing of additional space at the Property;

                  (d)      Tenant will not terminate the Lease because of a
                           default thereunder by Borrower unless Tenant shall
                           have first given Lender written notice and a
                           reasonable opportunity to cure such default as
                           specified in Article 36 of the Lease; and

                  (e)      Tenant, upon receipt of notice from Lender that it
                           has exercised its rights under the Absolute
                           Assignment and revoked the license granted to
                           Borrower to collect all rents, income and other sums
                           payable under the Lease, shall pay to Lender all rent
                           and other payments then or thereafter due under the
                           Lease, and any such payments to Lender shall be
                           credited against the rent or other obligations due
                           under the Lease as if made to Borrower.

         2.       The Lease is hereby subordinated in all respects to the Lien
Instrument and to all renewals, modifications and extensions thereof, subject to
and conditioned upon the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth in this
Agreement, but Tenant waives, to the fullest extent it may lawfully do so, the
provisions of any statute or rule of law now or hereafter in effect that may
give or purport to give it any right or election to terminate or otherwise
adversely affect the Lease or the obligations of Tenant thereunder by reason of
any foreclosure proceeding.

         3.       Borrower, Tenant and Lender agree that, unless Lender shall
otherwise consent in writing, the fee title to, or any leasehold interest in,
the Property and the leasehold estate created by the Lease shall not merge but
shall remain separate and distinct, notwithstanding, the union of

                                      -2-

said estates either in Borrower or Tenant or any third party by purchase,
assignment or otherwise.

         4.       If the interests of Borrower in the Property are acquired by a
Successor Landlord, Landlord and Tenant agree:

         (a)      If an Event of Default has not occurred in the payment of rent
                  or other sums due under the Lease or an Event of Default under
                  the Lease, the Lease shall not terminate or be terminated and
                  the rights of Tenant thereunder shall continue in full force
                  and effect except as provided in this Agreement and Tenant
                  shall not be disturbed;

         (b)      Tenant agrees to attorn to Successor Landlord as lessor;
                  Tenant shall be bound under all of the terms, covenants and
                  conditions of the Lease for the balance of the term thereof,
                  including any renewal options which are exercised in
                  accordance with the terms of the Lease;

         (c)      The interests so acquired shall not merge with any other
                  interests of Successor Landlord in the Property if such merger
                  would result in the termination of the Lease;

         (d)      If, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement,
                  the acquisition by Successor Landlord of the interests of
                  Borrower in the Property results, in whole or part, in the
                  termination of the Lease, there shall be deemed to have been
                  created a lease between Successor Landlord and Tenant on the
                  same terms and conditions as the Lease for the remainder of
                  the term of the Lease, with renewal options, if any; and

         (e)      Successor Landlord shall be bound to Tenant under all of the
                  terms, covenants and conditions of the Lease, and Tenant
                  shall, from and after Successors Landlord's acquisition of the
                  interests of Borrower in the real estate, have the same
                  remedies against Successor Landlord for the breach of the
                  Lease that Tenant would have had under the Lease against
                  Borrower if the Successor Landlord had not succeeded to the
                  interests of Borrower; provided, however, that Successor
                  Landlord shall not be:

                           (i)      Liable for the breach of any representations
                                    or warranties set forth in the Lease or for
                                    any act, omission or obligation of any
                                    landlord (including Borrower) occurring or
                                    accruing prior to the date of Successor
                                    Landlord's acquisition of the interests of
                                    Borrower in the Demised Premises, except for
                                    any repair and maintenance obligations of a
                                    continuing nature as of the date of such
                                    acquisitions;

                           (ii)     Subject to any offsets or defenses which
                                    Tenant might have against any landlord
                                    (including Borrower) prior to the date of
                                    Successor Landlord's acquisition of the
                                    interests of Borrower in the Demised

                                      -3-

                                    Premises, except with respect to obligations
                                    Successor Landlord has assumed in clause (i)
                                    above;

                           (iii)    Liable for the return of any security
                                    deposit under the Lease unless such security
                                    deposit shall have been actually deposited
                                    with Successor Landlord;

                           (iv)     Bound to Tenant subsequent to the date upon
                                    which Successor Landlord transfers its
                                    interest in the Demised Premises to any
                                    third party;

                           (v)      Liable to Tenant under any indemnification
                                    provisions set forth in the Lease or for any
                                    act of, or failure to act by any party other
                                    than Successor Landlord and its agents,
                                    officers and employees; or

                           (vi)     Liable for any damages in excess of
                                    Successor Landlord's equity in the Property.

The provisions of this paragraph shall be effective and self-operative
immediately upon Successor Landlord succeeding to the interests of Borrower
without the execution of any other instrument.

         5.       This agreement may not be modified orally or in any other
manner except by am agreement in writing signed by the parties hereto or their
respective successors in interest. In the event of any conflict between the
terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Lease, the terms of this Agreement
shall prevail. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon
the parties hereto, their respective heirs, successors and assigns. Upon
recorded satisfaction of the Lien Instrument, this Agreement shall become null
and void and be of no further effect.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have executed this Agreement as
of the day and year first above written.
