     Pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.1 of the Limited Partnership
Agreement for Jones Programming Partners 1-A, Ltd. (the "Partnership"), the

Partnership. Accordingly, Section 3.5(a) is hereby amended to add the following
sentence as the last sentence of such section:

     "Notwithstanding the foregoing, an economic interest in the Partnership can
     be transferred without compliance with (1) and (2) above."

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been adopted with retroactive effect
to the date of formation of the Partnership by Jones Entertainment Group, Ltd.,
General Partner.

     Dated this 31st day of December, 1990.

               or other transaction with such other affiliates of the General
               Partner shall be on terms which are comparable to those which are
               customary in the industry. All contracts with other affiliates of
               the General Partner will be in writing and will be terminable
               without penalty by the Partnership upon sixty days' notice;

     (o)  On behalf of the Partnership, to enter into joint ventures or general

          In joint venture arrangements with other programs formed by the

                                       4
<Page>

          (i)  The Partnership must have a right of first refusal to buy if the
               other program wishes to sell property held in the joint venture;
               and

          (ii) The investment of each program must be on substantially the same
               terms and conditions.

          In joint venture arrangements with third parties:

               The Partnership will endeavor to obtain a right of first refusal
               to buy if the other party wishes to sell its property held in the
               joint venture but there is no assurance the Partnership will be
               able to obtain such right.

     (p)  On behalf of the Partnership, to arrange for the sale of any
          Programming (or rights therein) to the General Partner or any
          affiliate of the General Partner. The sale price shall be determined
          by the average of three separate independent appraisals (the cost of
          which shall be borne by the General Partner or its affiliate and not
          by the Partnership). In addition, the General Partner may purchase a
          Programming project (or rights therein) in its own name or in the name
          of a nominee, an affiliate of the General Partner, or otherwise and
          temporarily holding it for the purpose of facilitating the acquisition
          thereof by the Partnership, provided that such Programming project is
          purchased by the Partnership for a purchase price no greater than the
          cost (including as costs any expenses incurred by the General Partner
          or an affiliate in so holding the Programming project) of such
          Programming to the General Partner or an affiliate thereof;

     (q)  To engage in any other activity customary or incident to any of the
          foregoing;

     (r)  To admit Partners after the formation of the Partnership;

     (s)  To purchase, on its own behalf or on behalf of the Partnership,
          Interests in the Partnership from Limited Partners on terms agreed
          upon by the parties.

The above enumeration of specific powers of the General Partner in Sections
2.2(a) through (s) shall not require the exercise of any such power by the
General Partner except in its sole discretion or as otherwise required by this
Agreement. The General Partner and its affiliates shall not be liable to the
Partnership or to the Limited Partners for any loss suffered by the Partnership
which arises out of any action or inaction of the General Partner or its
affiliates if the General Partner or its affiliates, in good faith, determined
that such course of conduct was in the best interest of the Partnership and such
course of conduct did not constitute negligence or misconduct of the General
Partner or its affiliates.

2.3 LIMITATIONS ON POWERS OF GENERAL PARTNER. The General Partner shall not
cause the Partnership to do any of the following:

                                       5
<Page>

     (i)    commingle its funds with those of any other person;

            Partner;

     (v)    permit the General Partner or any affiliate thereof to receive any
            insurance brokerage fee or write any insurance policy covering the
            Partnership or any of its property;

     (vi)   permit the General Partner or any affiliate thereof to receive any
            rebate or give-up or permit the participation of such entities in
            any reciprocal business arrangements to circumvent restrictions
            contained herein with regard to the Partnership's dealings with the
            General Partner or its affiliates except as otherwise herein
            provided;

     (vii)  obtain permanent financing from the General Partner or, with regard
            to nonpermanent financing made available to the Partnership by the
            General Partner or an affiliate thereof, permit the receipt of
            interest or other financing charges or fees other than in amounts
            equal to the General Partner's weighted average cost of all debt
            financing from unaffiliated parties or permit a prepayment charge or
            penalty on any such loan;

     (viii) purchase limited partnership interests in any other limited
            partnership;

     (ix)   contract away its fiduciary duty owed to General Partners under the
            common law; and

     (x)   permit its General Partner any exclusive right or employment to sell
           property for the Partnership.

2.4 OTHER ACTIVITIES. The General Partner may devote only so much time to the
business of the Partnership as deemed necessary by the General Partner.

2.5 WITHDRAWAL. The General Partner may, at any time upon ninety days' written
notice, retire or resign from the Partnership. On such retirement or
resignation, the General Partner may, at its option, remain the General Partner
for the sole purpose of winding up the Partnership, or the General Partner may
apply to a court of proper jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver for
this purpose.

2.6 CAPITAL CONTRIBUTION. The General Partner shall initially contribute $1,000
to the capital of the Partnership and, at its sole option, may from time to time
contribute an

                                       6
<Page>

additional sum or sums or purchase Limited Partnership Interest to meet various
blue sky law requirements or for other purposes. A capital account shall be
maintained for the General Partner, which account shall be credited with the
General Partner's contributions to the Partnership and with its share of
Partnership net profits and debited with the General Partner's share of
Partnership net losses and distributions to the General Partner.

2.7 RIGHTS OF THE GENERAL PARTNER UPON REMOVAL. If the General Partner is
removed pursuant to a vote of the Limited Partners under Section 3.2(l) and a
new General Partner is elected by the Limited Partners, the Partnership shall
purchase the interest in the Partnership of, and, if requested by the General
Partner, any Limited Partnership Interests owned by, the removed General
Partner. The purchase price shall be determined as if the Partnership had
dissolved and sold its assets and made the distributions as set forth in Section
7.2 of this Agreement, with all such events being deemed to have occurred on the
date of the removal of the General Partner. The value of the assets of the
Partnership for this purpose shall be determined by agreement between the
Partnership and the removed General Partner; provided, if they cannot so agree,
then each shall appoint an appraiser and such appraisers shall select a third
appraiser. The fair market value shall be the average of the three appraisals
and the three appraisals shall value the assets of the Partnership on a going
concern basis, without consideration for any increase or decrease in value
attributable to or resulting from any proceedings related to the removal of the
General Partner. The Partnership and the removed General Partner shall bear the
respective costs of the appraiser selected by each of them and they shall each
bear 1/2 of the costs of the appraiser selected by the other two appraisers. The
purchase price shall be payable in the form of a three-year promissory note
bearing interest on the unpaid principal amount at the stated prime rate of
interest of the Central Bank of Denver, in effect from time to time. Such note
shall be payable in equal annual installments of principal, plus interest
thereon. The Partnership shall be obligated to make the scheduled payments on
the three-year promissory note only if such payments do not materially impair
the solvency of the Partnership; provided, however, that in any event all
payments under the promissory note shall be paid within five years of the date
of the removal of the General Partner. If the Partnership sells any Programming,
any cash therefrom shall be applied to any accrued interest on such note, and
then to the unpaid principal thereof.

2.8 NEW GENERAL PARTNER. A new General Partner elected under Section 3.2(l) by
the Limited Partners shall purchase from the Partnership no later than the time
of the payment to the removed General Partner under Section 2.7, the interest
(and any Limited Partnership Interests) which the Partnership purchased from the
removed General Partner. The new General Partner shall pay for such interest
(and any Limited Partnership Interests) a price agreed to by the Partnership and
the new General Partner; provided, that if the parties are not able to agree on
the price, the price shall be the same amount as the Partnership pays for the
interest (and any Limited Partnership Interests) of the removed General Partner
as set forth in Section 2.7 and the price shall be paid in cash, unless
otherwise agreed to by the parties.

                                       7
<Page>

2.9 FUNDS AND ASSETS. The General Partner has a fiduciary responsibility for the
proper use of all funds and assets of the Partnership and it shall not employ or
permit another to employ such funds or assets in any manner except for the
benefit of the Partnership.

                                    ARTICLE 3

                              THE LIMITED PARTNERS

3.1 SINGLE CLASS. There shall be only one class of Limited Partners. Each person
desiring to become a Limited Partner shall execute a detachable Subscription
Agreement in the form attached hereto or shall authorize his registered
representative to execute and submit the Subscription Agreement on his behalf
and shall contribute cash to the Partnership in the amount stated on such
Subscription Agreement. The participation of the Limited Partners in the
Partnership shall be divided into limited partnership interests (hereinafter
called "Limited Partnership Interests" or "Interests") and each Limited Partner
shall have one Interest for each $500 of capital contributions to the
Partnership. The participation of each Limited Partner in the Limited Partners'
share of the Partnership assets, profits, losses and distributions shall be the
proportion which the number of Interests owned by him bears to the total number
of Interests owned by all Limited Partners in the Partnership at the time when a
determination of participation is made. In the event that the net proceeds of
the offering of the Interests are not invested in, or have not been committed
for, the acquisition or development of Programming or the establishment of a
working capital reserve by the Partnership within two years after the close of
the offering of Interests for the Partnership, all funds not so invested or
committed will be returned to the Limited Partners along with a proportionate
share of the organization and offering costs and sales commissions taken on the
uninvested proceeds.

3.2 RIGHTS, POWERS, AND OBLIGATIONS. Limited Partners shall have the following
rights, powers and obligations:

     (a)  No Limited Partner, as such, shall be personally liable for any of the
          debts of the Partnership or any of the losses of the Partnership
          beyond the amount committed by him to the capital of the Partnership
          and his share of undistributed profits of the Partnership. A Limited
          Partner shall have the obligation to the Partnership for the amount of
          any portion of the contribution returned to him as set forth in
          section 7-62-608 of the Act.

     (b)  No Limited Partner, as such, shall take part in the control of the
          business or shall transact any business for the Partnership.

     (c)  No Limited Partner, as such, shall have the power to sign for or bind
          the Partnership.

                                       8
<Page>

     (d)  No Limited Partner shall be obligated to make any contribution to the
          Partnership beyond the amount set forth on his Subscription Agreement
          to this Agreement.

     (e)  Except as provided in Article 7 with respect to dissolution, no
          Limited Partners shall be entitled to withdraw from the Partnership or
          be entitled to return of all or any part of his capital contribution.

     (f)  No Limited Partner shall be entitled to demand or receive property
          other than cash in return for his contribution.

     (g)  No Limited Partner, as such, shall be entitled to interest on his
          capital contribution.

     (h)  A Limited Partner may, with the consent of the General Partner,
          transact other business with the Partnership.

     (i)  Upon reasonable request, any Limited Partner or his duly authorized
          representative shall have the right to inspect and copy any of the
          Partnership books. A Limited Partner shall pay any actual cost of
          copying of any of said books, and shall pay any special costs, such as
          enlargement from microfilm or computer printout, which may be required
          in connection with such inspection. Such inspection shall be conducted
          at a time and in a manner so as not to interfere with the operation of
          the business of the Partnership. In no event shall the General Partner
          be compelled to prepare compilations or summaries which are not
          customarily maintained in the conduct of the business of the
          Partnership. In the event a Limited Partner wishes to inspect records
          which are not maintained at the principal place of business, such as
          records on a shared or rented computer system, the General Partner
          shall have a reasonable time to produce such records at the principal
          place of business of the Partnership. Any Limited Partner shall also
          have the right to secure a list of the names, addresses and related
          interest holdings of all of the Limited Partners, for a proper
          purpose, stated in writing. Such requesting Limited Partner shall
          prepay the costs of preparation of such list.

     (j)  The Limited Partners may, at a meeting of the Partnership, by vote of
          Limited Partners holding a majority of the Limited Partnership
          Interests, dissolve the Partnership at any time.

     (k)  The Limited Partners may vote to amend this Agreement pursuant to
          Section 6.2 hereof

     (l)  The Limited Partners may remove the General Partner by a vote of
          Limited Partners holding a majority of the Limited Partnership
          Interests. The Limited

                                       9
<Page>

          Partners shall also have the right, by a vote of Limited Partners
          holding seventy-five percent of the Limited Partnership Interests, to
          elect a new General Partner within 90 days after the vote to remove
          the General Partner.

3.3 GENERAL PARTNER AS LIMITED PARTNER. The General Partner, or any affiliate of
the General Partner, may at any time invest in or acquire Interests in the
Partnership. With respect to Interests so acquired, the General Partner, or its
affiliates, will acquire the same rights and obligations as other Limited
Partners, however Interests owned by the General Partner will not be voted on
removal of the General Partner, the election of a new General Partner, or any
amendments to the Limited Partnership Agreement which would adversely affect the
General Partner.

3.4 CAPITAL ACCOUNTS. A capital account shall be maintained for each Limited
Partner. A Limited Partner's capital account will be credited initially with his
contribution to the Partnership capital and thereafter with his share of
Partnership net profits, debited with his share of Partnership net losses and
distributions to him, and otherwise maintained in accordance with Treasury
Regulations published under Section 704(b) of the Code. The foregoing provisions
and the other provisions of this Agreement relating to the maintenance of
capital accounts are intended to comply with Treasury Regulation Section
1.704-1(b), and shall be interpreted and applied in a manner consistent with
such regulations. In the event the General Partner shall determine that it is
prudent to modify the manner in which the capital accounts, or any debits or
credits thereto, are computed in order to comply with such regulations, the
General Partner may make such modification, provided that it is not likely to
have a material effect on the amounts distributable to Limited Partners pursuant
to Article 7 upon the dissolution of the Partnership. The General Partner shall
also make appropriate modifications in the event unanticipated events might
otherwise cause this Agreement not to comply with the Treasury Regulations under
Section 704(b) of the Code. The General Partner shall adjust the amounts debited
or credited to capital accounts with respect to (a) any property contributed to
the Partnership or distributed to the General Partner and Limited Partners, and
(b) any liabilities that are secured by such contributed or distributed property
or that are assumed by the Partnership or the General Partner and Limited
Partners in the event the General Partner shall determine that such adjustments
are necessary or appropriate pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section
1.704-1(b)(2)(iv).

3.5 TRANSFER OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS.

     (a)  Subject to compliance with applicable state securities (blue sky)
          laws, Limited Partnership Interests may be transferred only in whole
          interests and only in accordance with the following terms: (1)
          Interests may be assigned only with the consent of the General Partner
          in its sole discretion; (2) the transfer of the interests shall be
          accomplished by an instrument in writing, in form and substance
          satisfactory to the General Partner, which writing may include a power
          of attorney and which shall set forth the intention that the purchaser
          is

                                       10
<Page>

          to be an additional Limited Partner and the stock ownership, if any,
          of the purchaser in the General Partner or any affiliate thereof; (3)
          a counterpart of the instrument of transfer, executed and acknowledged
          by the transferor Limited Partner shall be delivered to the General
          Partner; (4) any assignment of interests must be in compliance with
          applicable state securities (blue sky) laws; (5) no assignments will
          be permitted if such assignments would result in 49% or more of the
          interests being transferred within a twelve-month period; (6) the
          purchaser must agree that he will not directly or indirectly make or
          operate a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof in
          the Interests of the Partnership; (7) the General Partner may refuse
          to consent to any transfer if, in the sole discretion and judgment of
          the General Partner, the transfer would be transacted on or treated as
          transacted on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof
          or would cause the aggregate transfer to exceed permissible safe
          harbor limits under administrative interpretations; (8) no assignments
          will be permitted if such assignments would cause the assets of the
          Partnership to be treated as "plan assets" as defined in regulations
          promulgated by the Department of Labor; (9) the Partnership may charge
          the transferor Limited Partner a fee not exceeding $50 to defray the
          costs of effecting the transfer of his interests in the Partnership;
          (10) the transferor and the purchaser shall execute and deliver to the
          General Partner an amended Limited Partnership Agreement; and (11) the
          purchaser shall become a Limited Partner only upon amendment of this
          Agreement.

     (b)  The death, legal disability, bankruptcy or dissolution of a Limited
          Partner or the assignment by any Limited Partner of all or a part of
          any Limited Partnership Interests owned by him (whether or not in
          compliance with the terms of this Agreement) shall not dissolve the
          Partnership. The successor in interest of such Limited Partner shall
          have the rights of such Limited Partner for the purpose of settling
          the estate or business of such Limited Partner, including the rights
          as defined above to transfer such interests or to become an additional
          Limited Partner with respect thereto.

3.6 MEETINGS. Meetings of the Partnership may be called by the General Partner
or Limited Partners holding more than 10% of the outstanding Limited Partnership
Interests, for purposes of voting by the Limited Partners on any matters for
which the Limited Partners are specifically given voting rights in this
Agreement. At any such meeting a Limited Partner may also advise the General
Partner of his wishes and advisory votes may be taken to poll or ascertain
preferences of other Limited Partners, but no such expression of opinion by such
advisory vote shall be binding on the General Partner or constitute any exercise
of control of the business of the Partnership. A list of the names and mailing
addresses of all Limited Partners shall be maintained as part of the books and
records of the Partnership and shall be made available on request to or mailed
to any Limited Partner or his representative at his cost. Upon receipt of a
proper written request, either in person or by registered or certified mail
stating the purpose of the meeting, the General Partner shall provide all
partners, within 30 days

                                       11
<Page>

than 90 days after receipt of said request, at a time and place set forth in the
notice.

Limited Partners the following reports:

     (a)  Within 60 days after each complete calendar quarter of the
          Partnership's operations, a report containing a summary of pertinent
          information regarding the Partnership's activities during the quarter
          covered by the report.

     (b)  Within 75 days after the end of each taxable year of the Partnership,
          a report containing information necessary for the preparation of the
          Limited Partners' Federal income tax returns; and

     (c)  Within 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Partnership,
          an annual report containing (i) a statement of financial condition as
          of the year then ended, an operating statement for the year then ended
          and a statement of changes in financial position for the year then
          ended, all of which shall be prepared according to generally accepted
          accounting principles and shall be audited by independent certified
          public accountants; if an opinion of independent certified public
          accountants is not obtainable, the report shall include such
          qualified, limited or other advice from independent certified public
          accountants as may then be available; (ii) a summary of the activities
          of the Partnership during the period covered by the report; (iii) a
          summary of distributions to the Limited Partners for the period
          covered, including a description of the source or sources of such
          distributions; and (iv) a detailed statement of fees, commissions and
          compensation paid or to be paid to the General Partner and its
          affiliates for the fiscal period just completed. Such statement will

          giving rise to each such payment and will include a statement showing
          the actual computation of each fee, commission or compensation.

Upon written request, the Limited Partners will be furnished a copy of each Form
10-Q Quarterly Report of the Partnership, which is required to be filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission.

3.8 PURCHASE OF STOCK OF GENERAL PARTNER OR AFFILIATES BY LIMITED PARTNERS. Each
Limited Partner shall consent to be restricted in his purchase of stock of the
General Partner and its affiliates as follows:

     (a)  Each Limited Partner shall, upon request, represent and warrant the
          number of shares, if any, of the stock of the General Partner, or any
          affiliate thereof, that such Limited Partner owns of record or
          beneficially. Each Limited Partner shall further agree in subscribing
          for Interests in the Partnership that in the

                                       12
<Page>

          event that the Limited Partners of all the Partnerships organized
          under the JONES PROGRAMMING PARTNERS series of limited partnerships
          own, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, more
          than 20% of any class of stock of the General Partner or any
          affiliates as defined in Section 1504(a) of the Internal Revenue Code
          of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), on request of the General Partner,
          such Limited Partner will immediately divest himself or herself of all
          shares of the stock of the General Partner or any affiliates that such
          Limited Partner owns. For the purpose of determining stock ownership
          in the General Partner or its affiliates, the attribution rules set
          forth in Section 318 of the Code are applicable.

     (b)  In the event of the breach of the foregoing agreement by any Limited
          Partner, the General Partner may, but shall not be required to, as an
          alternative to the request for divestiture as provided in the next
          preceding subsection (a), purchase the Interests of such Limited
          Partner at an amount equal to the capital contribution of such Limited
          Partner (or his predecessor) less all distributions paid on account of
          the Interests being repurchased. In the event of such repurchase of
          Interests by the General Partner, the General Partner shall be
          substituted in the place of the Limited Partner as to such Interests.
          The General Partner shall notify any such Limited Partner in writing
          of its election to repurchase such Interests within 30 days after the
          General Partner has actual knowledge of any such breach.

3.9 ADMISSION OF LIMITED PARTNERS. Admission of Limited Partners to the
Partnership shall be subject to the following:

     Upon the original sale of Interests by the Partnership, the purchasers
     shall be admitted as Limited Partners not later than 15 days after the
     release from escrow of the purchasers' funds to the Partnership, and
     thereafter purchasers shall be admitted not later than the last day of the
     calendar month following the day their subscription was accepted by the
     General Partner. Subscriptions shall be accepted or rejected by the General
     Partner within 30 days of their receipt; if rejected, all funds shall be
     returned to the subscriber within 10 business days.

                      REIMBURSEMENT OF PARTNERSHIP EXPENSES

4.1 PRODUCTION AND OVERHEAD FEE. The General Partner shall receive a fee for its
services to the Partnership (the "Production and Overhead Fee") equal to 12% of

administrative expenses of every kind, including all expenses involved with all

expenses (such as home office rent, supplies, telephone, travel and copying
charges) and salaries of full and part-time employees allocable to the operation
of the Partnership.

                        ALLOCATION OF PROFITS AND LOSSES;
                              DISTRIBUTION OF FUNDS

5.1 ALLOCATION OF PROFITS. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.2(e), 5.3
and 5.4, Profits for any taxable year shall be allocated in the following order
and priority:

     (a)  first, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner until
          the cumulative Profits allocated pursuant to this Section 5.1(a) re
          equal to the cumulative Losses allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(a)
          hereof for all prior taxable years;

     (b)  second, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner
          until the Limited Partners have been allocated cumulative Profits
          pursuant to this Section 5.1(b) in an amount equal to the sum of the
          syndication expenses for the current and all prior taxable years. For
          this purpose, syndication expenses shall be as defined in Treasury
          regulation Section 1.709-2;

     (c)  third, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner until
          the Limited Partners have been allocated cumulative Profits pursuant
          to this Section 5.1(c) in an amount equal to a 12% per annum,
          cumulative and noncompounded, return on the capital contributions of
          the Limited Partners (such amount to be reduced by all previous
          distributions to the Limited Partners made in accordance with Section
          5.5(a) of this Agreement). For purposes of computing the 12% per annum
          cumulative and noncompounded return, the capital contributions of the
          Limited Partners, as determined for any particular year or portion
          thereof, shall be reduced by the amount of all prior distributions to
          the Limited Partners made in accordance with Section 5.5(b); and

     (d)  The balance, if any, 80% to the Limited Partners and 20% to the
          General Partner.

                                       14
<Page>

     (e)  For purposes of this Section 5.1, Profits shall be equal to the net
          income from the Partnership, if any, including all items of income,
          gain, loss and deduction required to be separately stated by Section
          703(a)(1) of the Code and also including any tax-exempt income and
          nondeductible expenses (other than syndication expenses) of the
          Partnership.

     (f)  For purposes of this Section 5.1, the calculation of cumulative
          Profits with respect to a Limited Partner shall commence no later than
          the end of the calendar quarter in which the investment by such
          Limited Partner was made.

5.2 ALLOCATION OF LOSSES. Losses for any taxable year shall be allocated in the
following order and priority:

     (a)  Except as provided in Section 5.2(b), Losses shall be allocated 99% to
          the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner; and

     (b)  To the extent Profits have been allocated pursuant to Section 5.1(b),
          5.1(c) or 5.1(d), Losses shall be allocated first to offset any
          Profits allocated pursuant to Section 5.1(d), next to offset any
          Profits allocated pursuant to Section 5.1(c), and then to offset any
          Profits allocated pursuant to Section 5.1(b). To the extent any
          allocations of Profits are offset pursuant to this Section 5.2(b),
          such allocation of Profits shall be disregarded for purposes of
          computing subsequent allocations pursuant to this Section 5.2(b).

     (c)  For purposes of this Section 5.2, Losses shall be equal to the net
          loss from the Partnership, if any, including all items of income,
          gain, loss and deduction required to be separately stated by Section
          703(a)(1) of the Code and also including any tax-exempt income and
          nondeductible expenses (other than syndication expenses) of the
          Partnership.

     (d)  Losses allocated to Limited Partners pursuant to this Section 5.2
          shall not exceed an amount which would cause the capital accounts of
          the Limited Partners to be in deficit at the end of a taxable year
          except to the extent that any such deficit is attributable to
          nonrecourse debt, as permitted by Treasury regulations under Section
          704 of the Code. Any amount of Loss which cannot be allocated to
          Limited Partners as a result of this restriction shall be allocated
          100% to the General Partner.

     (e)  If Losses are allocated to the General Partner as a result of the
          operation of Section 5.2(d), Profits in any subsequent taxable year(s)
          shall be allocated 100% to the General Partner until the cumulative
          Profits allocated pursuant to this Section 5.2(e) are equal to the
          cumulative Losses allocated pursuant to Section 5.2(d) hereof for all
          prior taxable years.

                                       15
<Page>

5.3 ALLOCATION OF MINIMUM GAIN AND OTHER MATTERS. Notwithstanding the other
provisions contained herein,

     (a)  To the extent that any Limited Partner has a negative capital account
          balance as of the end of any taxable year of the Partnership after
          giving effect to any distributions made or to be made with respect to
          such taxable year, and such negative balance exceeds such Partner's
          share of "minimum gain" (as defined in regulations promulgated under
          Section 704 of the Code) allocable to such Limited Partner as of the
          end of such taxable year, then an amount of income equal to such
          excess will be allocated to such Limited Partner. This Section 5.3(a)
          is intended to constitute a minimum gain chargeback within the meaning
          of the Treasury regulations under Section 704 of the Code and shall be
          construed in accordance with such intention. To the extent this
          minimum gain chargeback would distort the allocations of Profits and
          Losses as detailed in Sections 5.1 and 5.2, the General Partner is
          hereby authorized to make subsequent allocations of Profits and Losses
          in any reasonable manner so as to eliminate any such distortion.

     (b)  In the event any Partner unexpectedly receives any adjustments,
          allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation Section
          1.704-l(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(5), or
          1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(6), items of Partnership income and gain shall be
          specially allocated to such Partner in an amount and manner sufficient
          to eliminate the deficit balances in their capital accounts created by
          such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible.
          Any special allocations of items of income or gain pursuant to this
          Section 5.3(b) shall be taken into account in computing subsequent
          allocations of income pursuant to this Section 5, so that the net
          amount and character of any items so allocated and the income or gain
          allocated to each Partner pursuant to this Section 5 shall, to the
          extent possible, be equal to the net amount and character of the items
          that would have been allocated to each such Partner pursuant to the
          provisions of this Section 5 if such unexpected adjustments,
          allocations or distributions had not occurred. This Section 5.3(b) is
          intended to be a qualified income offset within the meaning of the
          Treasury regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code and shall be
          construed in accordance with such intention.

     (c)  The allocations of income and loss as detailed in Sections 5.1, 5.2,
          5.3 and 5.4 are intended to comply with the regulations under Section
          704 of the Code which require that partnership allocations have
          substantial economic effect. The General Partner is authorized in
          Section 6.1(e) to adjust the allocations in Section 5 of this
          Agreement to comport with the requirements of the Code, regulations or
          interpretations of the law, including the requirements of Section 704.

5.4 ALLOCATION OF INCOME AND GAIN UPON LIQUIDATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP. In the
final taxable year of the Partnership, gain from the sale of Programming
projects and income and gain from other sources shall be allocated as follows:

     (a)  To the extent that the capital accounts of the Limited Partners are
          negative, income or gain shall first be allocated 99% to the Limited
          Partners and 1% to the General Partner until the capital accounts of
          the Limited Partners equal zero;

     (b)  To the extent that the General Partner has any remaining negative
          balance in its capital account, that amount of income or gain shall
          next be allocated to the General Partner until the capital account of
          the General Partner equals zero;

     (c)  Income or gain shall next be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and
          1% to the General Partner to the extent necessary to make the
          aggregate balance of the capital accounts of the Limited Partners an
          amount equal to a 12% per annum, cumulative and noncompounded, return
          on the capital contributions of the Limited Partners (such amount to
          be reduced by all previous distributions to the Limited Partners made
          in accordance with Section 5.5(a) of this Agreement). For purposes of
          computing the 12% per annum cumulative and noncompounded return, the
          capital contributions of the Limited Partners, as determined for any
          particular year or portion thereof, shall be reduced by the amount of
          all prior distributions to the Limited Partners made in accordance
          with Section 5.5(b);

     (d)  Income or gain shall next be allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and
          1% to he General Partner to the extent necessary to make the aggregate
          balance of the capital accounts of the Limited Partners an amount
          equal to the amount of their initial capital contributions (less all
          previous distributions to the Limited Partners made in accordance with
          Section 5.5(b) of this Agreement);

     (e)  Income or gain shall next be allocated to the capital account of the
          General Partner to the extent necessary to make the aggregate balance
          thereof an amount equal to the amount of its initial capital
          contribution (less all previous distributions to the General Partner
          made in accordance with Section 5.5(b) of this Agreement);

     (f)  The balance of any income or gain shall next be allocated to the
          capital accounts of the Limited Partners and the General Partner in
          amounts that shall cause the capital accounts of the Limited Partners
          to equal 80% of the total capital accounts of the Limited Partners and
          the General Partner after such allocations and after all allocations
          and distributions have been made pursuant to Sections 5.5(a) and
          5.5(b). However, in the event that there are no distributions to be
          made to the General Partner pursuant to Section 5.5(c) of

                                       17
<Page>

          this Agreement, all remaining income or gain to be allocated pursuant
          to this Section 5.4(f) shall be allocated to the Limited Partners.

5.5 ORDER OF DISTRIBUTION. Partnership distributions shall be made as follows:

     (a)  first, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner until
          the Limited Partners have been allocated an amount equal to a 12% per
          annum, cumulative and noncompounded, return on the capital
          contributions of the Limited Partners (such amount to be reduced by
          all previous distributions to the Limited Partners in accordance with
          this Section 5.5(a)). For purposes of computing the 12% per annum
          cumulative and noncompounded return, the capital contributions of the
          Limited Partners, as determined for any particular year or portion
          thereof, shall be reduced by the amount of all prior distributions to
          the Limited Partners made in accordance with Section 5.5(b);

     (b)  second, 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partner
          until the Limited Partners have received cumulative distributions in
          an amount equal to the amount of their initial capital contributions
          (less all previous distributions made to the Limited Partners in
          accordance with this Section 5.5(b));

     (c)  The balance, if any, 80% to the Limited Partners and 20% to the
          General Partner.

     (d)  Any distribution of Partnership funds available for distribution shall
          be made or not made in the sole discretion of the General Partner. If
          any distribution is made, the General Partner shall at the time of
          such distribution, or in the quarterly report next following the
          distribution, notify the Limited Partners as to the source or sources
          of such distribution. The General Partner shall not be obligated to
          distribute funds at any time if in the sole discretion of the General
          Partner such funds are needed, or may reasonably be expected to be
          needed, for Partnership purposes.

5.6 TRANSFER OF LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS. In the case of a transfer of a
Limited Partnership Interest during any taxable year of the Partnership, every
item of Partnership income, loss, deduction and credit attributable to such
Limited Partnership Interest shall be divided and allocated proportionately
between the transferor and transferee based upon the number of months during
such taxable year for which each such Limited Partner is recognized as such in
accordance with Section 3.5. For purposes of accounting simplicity in the case
of a transfer of a Limited Partnership Interest, the Partnership will treat the
party who is the recognized owner of the Limited Partnership Interest as of the
close of business on the last day of any calendar month as the owner of the
Limited Partnership Interest for the entire month. The General Partner is
authorized to alter this accounting convention to conform with any regulation or
administrative rulings issued by the Treasury Department or the IRS.

                                       18

5.7 GENERAL PARTNER'S CAPITAL ACCOUNT. Except as may be required by Section 7.2
below, in connection with winding up the Partnership, a deficit may be carried
in the capital account of the General Partner without the General Partner being
required to make a contribution to the capital of the Partnership, unless such
contribution is necessary in order to meet obligations to creditors of the
Partnership other than Partners as Partners.

6.1 ROUTINE AMENDMENTS. Amendments to this Agreement and to any Certificate of
Limited Partnership may be made by the General Partner through the use of the
power of attorney granted by each Limited Partner in this Agreement if such
Amendments:

     (a)  in the opinion of the General Partner, with advice of counsel, may be
          necessary to preserve the limited liability of Limited Partners; or

     (b)  in the opinion of the General Partner, with advice of counsel, may be
          necessary to preserve the status of the Partnership as a partnership,
          and not an association taxable as a corporation, for Federal income
          tax purposes; or

     (c)  are required or contemplated by this Agreement in connection with
          substitution or addition or Limited Partners; or

          supplement any provision hereof which may be inconsistent with any
          other provision hereof; or

     (e)  are necessary or appropriate to change the allocations of Partnership
          income, gain, losses, deductions, distributions or credits in Article
          5 hereof to comport with the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code
          of 1986, as amended, regulations or interpretations of the law
          applicable to allocations or to conform the allocations to the order
          of distributions described in Section 5.5, if the General Partner
          concludes in good faith that such amendments are in the overall best
          interests of the Partners; provided, however, that the General Partner
          shall be authorized to amend such provisions only to the minimum
          extent which in good faith it judges to be necessary or advisable,
          based upon advice of counsel or accountants, to make the Partnership's
          allocations of these items effective for Federal income tax purposes;
          and provided further, that the General Partner shall be under no
          obligation to make any such amendment; or

                                       19
<Page>

     (f)  are necessary to comply with federal or state securities or blue sky
          laws, and do not adversely affect the rights and obligations of the
          Limited Partners hereunder.

6.2 OTHER AMENDMENTS. Any other amendments to this Agreement shall be proposed
in writing by the General Partner or by Limited Partners holding not less than
10% of the Limited Partnership Interests. Following any proposal, whether by the
General Partner or Limited Partners, the General Partner shall mail each Limited
Partner a verbatim statement of the proposed amendment and a statement of the
General Partner's recommendation as to whether the proposed amendment should be
adopted. A proposed amendment under this Section 6.2 shall become effective when
it has received due approval of the holders of a majority of the Interests;
provided, however, that any amendment affecting Sections 1.8, 2.2, 2.3, 2.6,
2.7, 2.8, 3.2, 4.1, 4.2, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 6.2, 7.2 or 9.12, or otherwise
affecting the General Partner's interest in the Partnership shall also require
the approval of the General Partner. No amendment to this Agreement which
requires an amendment to the Partnership's Certificate of Limited Partnership
shall become effective until such amendment to such certificate is duly filed.

          General Partner under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy law of the United

                                       20
<Page>

          under Chapter 11 of the bankruptcy law of the United States shall not,
          in itself, cause dissolution of the Partnership;

     (d)  the disposition of substantially all of the assets of the Partnership;

          business of the Partnership.

If the Partnership is dissolved for any of the above reasons, the remaining
Partners shall not have the power to continue its existence, except as provided
in (g) above.

7.2 WINDING UP. In the event of the dissolution of the Partnership, the General
Partner may wind up the affairs of the Partnership; sell all of its assets for
cash or other assets (which may include securities); and after paying all
liabilities, including all costs of dissolution and winding up, payment of all
fees and compensation otherwise due the General Partner, setting up of reserves

as is permitted by Treasury regulations under Section 704(b) of the Code.

In connection with distributions in winding up the affairs of the Partnership on

by contributing to the capital of the Partnership an amount equal to the lesser
of:

     (i)  the deficit which may exist in its capital account at such time; or

     (ii) an amount equal to 1.01% of the initial capital contributions to the
          Partnership by the Limited Partners, reduced by the capital
          contributions to the Partnership by the General Partner.

7.3 TERMINATION. Upon completion of the dissolution, winding up, liquidation and
distribution of the liquidation proceeds, the Partnership shall terminate.

     (a)  Any notice or document required or desired to be given to any Partner
          or his transferee or to the Partnership shall be in writing and shall
          be deemed given:

          (i)  to the Partnership or the General Partner when deposited in the
               United States Mail, registered and certified, postage prepaid,
               addressed to the Partnership or the General Partner at its
               principal offices at 9697 East Mineral Avenue, Englewood,

               herein); and

          (ii) to any Limited Partner or his transferee when delivered
               personally to that person (or his personal representative or
               successor in interest) or when deposited in the United States
               Mail, postage prepaid, addressed to that person (or his personal
               representative or successor in interest) at his mailing address
               set forth in the records of the Partnership.

     (b)  The General Partner shall maintain a record of names and addresses of

     (c)  If any Limited Partnership Interest is held on the records of the
          Partnership in more than one name for the beneficial interest of
          another, notice only to the first named person in the records of the
          Partnership shall be sufficient.

9.2 SEVERANCE OF ANY PROVISION TO THE EXTENT INVALID. If any provision in this
Agreement or the application of such provision to any person or circumstance
shall be held invalid, the remainder of this Agreement, or the application of
such provision to persons or circumstances other than those to which it is held
invalid, shall not be affected thereby; provided, however, if any provision of
this Agreement is so applied as

                                       23
<Page>

to impair the limited liability of the Limited Partners, the Partnership shall
dissolve and be wound up and terminated as provided in Article 7.

9.3 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be binding upon the parties
thereto, their successors, heirs, devisees, assigns, legal representatives,
executors and administrators; but no interest in the Partnership may be
transferred except in conformity with other provisions of this Agreement.

9.4 COMPETING OR RELATED BUSINESS. The General Partner (and any affiliate of the
General Partner), any officer or director of any of the foregoing or any Limited
Partner may acquire programming or interests therein for his or its own account,
or engage in the acquisition, development, financing or exploitation of
programming or related businesses on behalf of other enterprises formed by him
or it or in which he or it may have an interest, including, without limitation,
business ventures similar to, related to or in direct or indirect competition
with any business of the Partnership. Neither the Partnership nor any Partner
shall have any right by virtue of this Agreement in or to such other business
venture or income or profits derived therefrom.

9.5 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. The fact that any Partner, including the General
Partner or any affiliate of the General Partner, is employed by, or is directly
or indirectly interested in or affiliated or connected with, any enterprise
employed by the Partnership to render or perform services shall not prohibit the
General Partner from employing such enterprise or from otherwise dealing with it
in any way not specifically prohibited by this Agreement. Neither the
Partnership nor any Partner as such shall have any right in or to any income of
profits derived from any such employment or other dealing by any such
enterprise.

9.6 INDEMNIFICATION. The Partnership shall indemnify and save harmless the
General Partner and its Affiliate and any agent or officer or director thereof
against any losses, judgments, liabilities, expenses, including any legal
expenses, and amounts paid in settlement of any claims, sustained by them in
connection with the Partnership, provided that the General Partner or its
Affiliates will not be indemnified for negligence or misconduct and provided
further that only Affiliates acting within the scope of the General Partner's
authority will be indemnified hereunder. Indemnification shall be from the
assets of the Partnership and not from the Limited Partners.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the General Partner and its Affiliates and any
person acting as a broker-dealer shall not be indemnified by the Partnership for
any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation
of federal or state securities laws unless (a) there has been a successful
adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law
violations as to the particular indemnity and a court of competent jurisdiction
has approved such indemnification, or (b) such claims have been dismissed with
prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the
particular indemnitee, or (c) a court of competent jurisdiction has approved a
settlement of the claims against the particular indemnitee. In any claim for

                                       24
<Page>

indemnification for federal or state securities law violations, the party
seeking indemnification will place before the court the positions of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and the Massachusetts Securities Division and
other state securities administrators with respect to the issue of
indemnification for securities law violations.

The Partnership shall not incur the cost of that portion of any insurance, other
than public liability insurance, which insures the General Partner and its
Affiliates against any liability the indemnification of which is herein
prohibited.

Expenses incurred by the General Partner or any Affiliate in defending any claim
with respect to which the General Partner or an Affiliate may be entitled to
indemnification by the Partnership may be advanced by the Partnership prior to
final disposition of such claim provided (a) the claim relates to the
performance of duties or services by the General Partner or the Affiliate on
behalf of the Partnership, (b) the claim is initiated by a third party who is
not a Limited Partner of the Partnership, and (c) the General Partner or the
Affiliate undertake to repay the advanced funds to the Partnership if it is
determined ultimately that the General Partner or the Affiliate is not entitled
to indemnification by the Partnership. The advance shall be evidenced by a
full-recourse promissory note. For purposes of this Section 9.6, the term
"Affiliate" shall mean any person performing services on behalf of the
Partnership who: (1) directly or indirectly controls, is controlled by or is
under common control with the General Partner; (2) owns or controls 10% or more
of the outstanding voting securities of the General Partner; (3) is an officer,
director, partner or trustee, of any company for which the General Partner acts
in any such capacity.

9.7 NONRECOURSE CREDITORS. A creditor who makes a nonrecourse loan to the
Partnership must not have or acquire, at any time as a result of making the
loan, any direct or indirect interest in the profits, capital or property of the
Partnership other than as a secured creditor.

9.8 COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts or with
detachable signature pages and shall constitute one agreement, binding upon all
parties thereto as if all parties signed the same document.

9.9 CAPTIONS. Captions to and headings of the Articles, Sections, Subsections,
Paragraphs or Subparagraphs of this Agreement are solely for convenience, are
not a part of the Agreement, and shall not be used for the interpretation or
determination of the validity of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

9.10 GOVERNING LAW. The Partnership will be formed and will be governed under
the laws of the State of Colorado. All questions concerning the intention,
validity and meaning of this Agreement relating to the rights and obligations of
the Partners with respect to performance under this Agreement shall be construed
and resolved according to the laws of the State of Colorado. The General Partner
is subject to the liabilities of a partner in a partnership without limited
partners. Neither the Partnership Agreement

                                       25
<Page>

nor the Certificate of Limited Partnership will be amended to limit such
liability of the General Partner.

9.11 DEFINITIONS. Unless a term is otherwise defined herein, the definitions in
the Glossary of definitive Prospectus for the JONES PROGRAMMING PARTNERS series
of limited partnerships shall be considered as the definitions of the terms used
herein for purposes of this Agreement.

9.12 FIRST REFUSAL RIGHT ON SALE OF PARTNERSHIP PROPERTIES. In the event that
the Partnership receives a detailed, bona fide written offer from any
non-affiliated party (the "Offer") to purchase any Programming (or interest
therein or rights the events) of the Partnership, and the Partnership has
determined that it will sell on such terms, Jones 21st Century Management, Inc.
("Jones") separately, and not in its capacity as Managing General Partner, or
any affiliate thereof, shall have the right to acquire the subject of the Offer
on the same terms and conditions as are set forth in the Offer (unless such
terms include payment not consisting solely of cash, in which event Jones or
affiliate shall have the right to substitute the equivalent thereof in cash).
The Partnership shall within five (5) days of receipt of any Offer, deliver a
copy of the Offer to Jones. Jones (or affiliate) shall, within thirty (30) days
of receipt of such Offer, give written notice to the Partnership as to whether
or not it or any affiliate will purchase the Programming which is the subject of
the Offer; provided, that in no event shall Jones or affiliate purchase such
Programming for a price which is less than the price determined under the second
sentence of Section 2.2(p). If Jones (or affiliate) has elected to purchase the
Programming which is the subject of the Offer, Jones (or affiliate) shall
expeditiously consummate the transaction. If such transaction is not so
consummated with Jones (or affiliate), the Partnership may then sell the
Programming to the third party named in the Offer on the terms and conditions
set forth therein. This Section 9.12 shall survive regardless of any removal of
the Managing General Partner.

9.13 RECORDS. The General Partner shall maintain a record of the information
obtained to indicate that a Limited Partner meets the suitability standards
employed in connection with the offering and sale of the Interests and the
representation of the Limited Partner that he or she is purchasing for his or
her own account or, in lieu of such representation, information indicating that
the Limited Partner for whose account the purchase is made meets such
suitability standards.
