                                   ARTICLE 3

                                 CONSIDERATION
                                 -------------

     3.1  Delivery of Consideration.
          -------------------------

          3.1.1   In exchange for the Station Assets, in addition to the
assumption of certain obligations of Seller pursuant to Section 2.1 above, Buyer
shall, subject to Articles 11 and 12 hereof, at the Closing deliver to Seller:
Three Million Seven Hundred Thousand Dollars ($3,700,000.00) by wire transfer of
immediately available funds, subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 3.3
hereof (the "Purchase Price").  Other than as provided in Section 3.3, there
shall be no further Purchase Price adjustments.

          3.1.2   The Purchase Price shall be paid to Seller in the amounts and
to the accounts of Seller specified in written wiring instructions delivered to
Buyer at least ten days prior to the Closing Date (the "Wiring Instructions").

     3.2  Allocation of Consideration.

          3.2.1   Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, Sellers and
Buyer shall negotiate in good faith an allocation of the total consideration
among the Station's Assets (the "Allocation").  If the Allocation is not agreed
upon within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date,

                                       7
<PAGE>

Buyer will order an appraisal of the Stations Assets from Broadcast Investments
Analysts ("BIA") and BIA will determine the Allocation. The appraisal, if
required, shall be provided to Sellers within forty five (45) days after it is
ordered. Buyer and Sellers agree to prepare and file all income taxes returns
(including, if applicable, Form 8594) in a manner consistent with the Allocation
and will not in connection with the filing of such returns make any allocation
that is contrary to the Allocation. Buyer and Sellers agree to consult with each
other with respect to all issues related to the Allocation in connection with
any tax audits, controversy or litigation. The fees for BIA shall be borne
equally by Buyer and Sellers.

     3.3  Allocations and Prorations.

          3.3.1   Subject to Buyer's obligations under Section 2.1 hereof, any
operation of the Station and the income and expenses attributable thereto
through 11:59 p.m. on the Closing Date (the "Effective Time") shall be for the
account of Seller and thereafter shall be for the account of Buyer. Expenses for
goods and services received both before and after the Effective Time, utilities
charges, ad valorem, real estate, property and other taxes (other than income
taxes, which shall be Seller's sole responsibility for all taxable periods
ending prior to and including the Closing Date, and those taxes arising from the
sale and transfer of the Station Assets, which shall be paid as set forth in
Section 13.2), income and expenses under the Contracts, prepaid expenses, music
and other license fees (including any retroactive adjustments thereof), wages,
salaries, and other employee benefit expenses (whether such wages, salaries or
benefits are current or deferred expenses) (including, without limitation,
liabilities accrued up to the Effective Time for bonuses, commissions, vacation
pay, payroll taxes, workers' compensation and social security taxes) and rents
and similar prepaid and deferred items shall be prorated between Seller and
Buyer in accordance with the foregoing.

                                       8
<PAGE>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no proration shall be made with respect to (i)
severance or sick leave with respect to any employee or (ii) any prepaid expense
or other deferred item unless Buyer will receive a benefit in respect of such
prepayment or deferral after the Effective Time. For purposes of this Section
3.2.1, ad valorem and other real estate taxes shall be apportioned on the basis
of the taxes assessed for the most recently-completed calendar year, with a
reapportionment as promptly as practicable after the tax rates and real property
valuations for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs can be ascertained.
In addition, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit in this proration process for
the amount of any taxes (or other governmental charges) that are due and payable
by Seller, but are being contested by Seller in good faith in appropriate
proceedings and are secured by Liens (as hereinafter defined) on the Station
Assets that have not been removed as of or before the Closing (but once such
amounts are finally determined, Buyer shall use such credit to remove such Liens
and return to Seller the excess of (i) the amount of such credit minus (ii) the
                                                                 -----
amount of such taxes or other governmental charges as finally determined, or
Seller shall pay to Buyer the deficiency, as appropriate).

          3.3.2   Allocation and proration of the items set forth in Subsection
3.2.1 above shall be made by Buyer and a statement thereof given to Seller
within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. Seller shall give written notice
of any objection thereto within twenty (20) business days after delivery of such
statement, detailing the reason for such objection and stating the amount of the
proposed final allocation and proration. If a timely objection is made and the
parties cannot reach agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
objection as to the amount of the final allocation and proration, the matter
shall be referred to Arthur Andersen, L.L.P. (the "IndependentAuditor") to
resolve the matter, whose decision will be final and binding on the parties, and
whose fees and

                                       9
<PAGE>

expenses shall be borne by Buyer and Seller in accordance with the following:
each party shall pay an amount equal to the sum of all fees and expenses of the
Independent Auditor on a proportional basis taking into account the amount of
the net allocation and proration proposed by each of Buyer and Seller and the
amount of the final allocation and proration determined by the Independent
Auditor (for example, if Buyer proposed a payment of $10 to Seller, Seller
proposed a payment of $100, and the Independent Auditor proposed a payment of
$30, Buyer would pay 20/90ths of the Independent Auditor's fees and Seller would
pay 70/90ths of those fees based on the $90 in dispute between the parties).

                                    CLOSING

     4.1. Closing.  The consummation of the transactions contemplated herein
          -------
(the "Closing") shall occur, except as otherwise mutually agreed upon by Buyer
and Seller (i) within ten (10) business days after the FCC Consents (as
hereinafter defined) to the assignment of the Station License has become a Final
Order (as hereinafter defined) or (ii) at such later date that all other terms
and conditions as set forth in Articles 11 and 12 have been satisfied, or such
other date as may be mutually agreed to by the parties ("Closing Date").  For
purposes of the Agreement, "Final Order" means action by the FCC consenting to
the assignments contemplated by this Agreement which is not reversed, stayed,
enjoined, set aside, annulled or suspended, and with respect to which action no
timely request for stay, petition for rehearing, or reconsideration, application
for review or appeal is pending, and as to which the time for filing any such
request, petition or appeal or reconsideration by the FCC on its own motion has
expired.   The Closing shall be held in the offices of Leibowitz

                                       10

& Associates, P.A., One SE Third Avenue, Suite 1450, Miami, Florida, 33131, or

                             ---------------------

     5.1  FCC Consent.   It is specifically understood and agreed by Buyer and
          -----------
Seller that the Closing and the assignments of the Station Licenses and the
transfer of the Station Assets are expressly conditioned on and are subject to
the prior consent and approval of the FCC ("FCC Consents").

     5.2  FCC Applications.  Within ten (10) business days after the execution
          ----------------
of this Agreement or such earlier time as shall be agreed to by all of the
parties hereto, Buyer and Seller shall file applications with the FCC for the
FCC Consent ("FCC Applications"). Buyer and Seller shall prosecute the FCC
Applications with all reasonable diligence and otherwise use their best efforts
to obtain the FCC Consent as expeditiously as practicable, (but neither Buyer
nor Seller shall have any obligation to satisfy complainants or the FCC by
taking any steps which would have a material adverse effect upon Buyer or
Seller).

                                   ARTICLE 6

                                       11
<PAGE>

business as now being conducted and is duly qualified to do business in each
jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of
its properties makes such qualification necessary.

                (b) The Seller has all requisite corporate power and authority
to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly authorized

duly executed and delivered by Seller and constitutes the legal, valid and
binding obligations of Seller, enforceable against it in accordance with its
terms.

          6.1.2 Authority.  Assuming the consents contemplated by Sections 6.1.2
                ---------
and 6.1.14 are obtained, neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement
nor the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby (i) violate,
conflict with or result in any breach of any provision of the Certificates or
Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of Seller, (ii) violate, conflict with or
will result in a violation or breach of, or constitute a default (with or
without due notice or lapse of time or both) under, or permit the termination
of, or will result in the acceleration of, or entitle any party to accelerate
(whether as a result of the sale of the Station Assets or otherwise) any
material obligation, or result in the loss of any material benefit, or give rise
to the creation of any material lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance
upon any of the properties or assets of Seller or any of their subsidiaries
under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any loan or credit
agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture or deed of trust, or any material
license, lease, agreement or other material instrument or obligation to which
any of them is a party or by which they or any of their properties or assets may
be bound or affected; (iii) violate any order, writ, judgment, injunction,

                                       12
<PAGE>

decree, statute, rule or regulation, of any court, administrative agency or
commission or other governmental authority or instrumentality (a "Governmental
Entity") applicable to Seller or any of its respective properties or assets. No
consent, approval, order or authorization of, or registration, declaration or
filing with, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to the
Seller in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Seller or the consummation by the Seller of the transactions contemplated
hereby, except for the consents of the FCC to the assignments of the Station
Licenses.

          6.1.3     [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

          6.1.4     [INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

          6.1.5     Compliance with Applicable Laws; FCC Matters.  (i) Except as
                    --------------------------------------------
permitted or contemplated hereby, any operation of the Station will be conducted
in substantial compliance with each law, ordinance, regulation, judgment,
decree, injunction, rule or order of the FCC or any other Governmental Entity
binding on Seller, the Station or their respective properties or assets to the
extent failure to so comply could be reasonably expected to have a material
adverse effect. No investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with
respect to Seller or the Station is pending or, to the Seller's knowledge, is
threatened. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and with respect to
the Station, the Station complies in all material respects with the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Communications Act"), all
applicable rules, regulations and written policies of the FCC thereunder, all
obligations with respect to equal opportunity under applicable law, and all
rules and regulations of the FCC and the Federal Aviation Administration
applicable to any towers used by the Station (including all rules regulating
hazards to air navigation, registration of radio towers, and exposure of humans
to non-ionizing radio frequency radiation).  In addition, the

                                       13
<PAGE>

Station has duly and timely filed, or caused to be filed, with the appropriate
Governmental Entities all reports, statements, documents, registrations, filings
or submissions with respect to any operation of the Station and the ownership
thereof, including, without limitation, applications for renewal of authority
required by applicable law to be filed. All such filings complied in all
material respects with applicable laws when made and no material deficiencies
have been asserted with respect to any such filings. All the material required
by 47 C.F.R. (S) 73.3526 to be kept in the public inspection files of the
Station is in such files. Seller has no knowledge of any fact or circumstance
relating to Seller or the Station arising from noncompliance with the
Communications Act, or the rules, regulations or written policies of the FCC in
effect on the date of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to
disqualify the Seller from assigning the Station Licenses to the Buyer.

          (ii) Schedule 1.1.1 lists (x) all licenses, permits and other
authorizations (including all STL licenses and construction permits) issued by
the FCC relating to the Station as of the date of this Agreement and (y) all
licenses, permits, or authorizations issued by any other Governmental Entities
which are material to the operation of the Station as of the date of this
Agreement.  Such licenses, permits and authorizations, and all applications for
modification, extension thereof or for new licenses, permits, permissions or
authorizations that would be material to the operations of the Station, are
collectively referred to herein as the Station Licenses (as further defined in
Section 1.1.1), each of which is in full force and effect. The Station, if
operated, has been operated in all material respects in accordance with the
terms of the Station Licenses.  Except for proceedings affecting the radio
broadcast industry generally, there are no proceedings pending or, to the
Seller's knowledge, threatened with respect to ownership or operation of the
Station which reasonably may be expected to result in the revocation, material
adverse modification, non-renewal

                                       14
<PAGE>

or suspension of any of the Station Licenses, the denial of any pending
