Executive, consistent with CBS policy. The results of such annual physical
examination shall be provided only to Executive, except with the prior,
voluntary, written authorization of Executive.
6. Company shall continue to furnish to Executive the office space,
furnishings and equipment, in the office he currently occupies, in the Semmes

the greater Washington, D.C., metropolitan area, Executive shall travel
nationally, as needed, to perform his duties under this Agreement. Executive
further agrees that he shall make himself available during business hours, as
needed, in New York City, consistent with Executive's right to maintain his
principal office and sole residence in the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan
area.
7. (a) If CBS should buy or merge with a major radio group, and
thereby substantially increase the number of radio properties it owns or
operates, Executive will continue to be President of the Radio Division and have
responsibility for all operating segments. He will report directly to the
Chairman of the radio group, if such a position exists as a result of this
acquisition, and the Chairman would report directly to the Executive Vice
President of CBS and the President of the CBS Station Group (presently Xxxx
Xxxx). CBS and Executive will enter into good faith discussions immediately
after the closing of such acquisition or merger for the purpose of adjusting
Executive's corporation package in recognition of his increased responsibility.
CBS may pay Executive a
7
4
reasonable sum, either as a lump sum adjustment, deferred compensation,
increased wage bonus potential or other mutually agreed upon arrangements. CBS
and Executives will make a good faith effort to accomplish this goal. If
however, the parties fail to reach such agreement within ninety (90) days after
the closing date of such acquisition or merger, Executive may terminate this
Agreement without cause on no less than an additional sixty (60) days' notice,
it being understood that in such event, CBS would have no further financial
obligation to such Executive.
(b) If Executive is terminated by Mutual Agreement during the term
of this Agreement, CBS will pay Executive one year's base salary and Executive's
next scheduled guaranteed Annual Incentive payment, and Executive shall be free
of restrictions with respect to future assignments. For purposes of this

have become intolerable, and that Executive has discussed the situation with
senior management and given appropriate notice of his intention to leave.

affairs of CBS during normal business hours during the Employment Term except
during vacation periods and reasonable periods of illness or other incapacity

Employment Term.

"Policy Notes from the President" concerning conflicts of interest ("Conflicts
Policy"), dated December 13, 1989, and a copy of the "CBS Policy Summary".

requirements thereof, and acknowledges that at all times during the Employment
Term he shall perform his services hereunder in full compliance with the
Conflicts Policy and the CBS Policy Summary and with any revision thereof or
additions thereto.

10. (a) In the event of the death or voluntary resignation of
Executive, salary payments and any Annual Incentives to be paid pursuant to the
Agreement shall cease immediately; provided, however, in the event of death, the
estate of Executive shall receive any salary due and not yet paid through the
date of Executive's death.
(b) If, during the Employment Term, CBS properly terminates the
employment of Executive for Cause, which for these purposes is defined as (i)
fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement on the part of Executive, (ii)
Executive's willful failure to perform services hereunder or (iii) Executive's
intentional breach of the provisions of paragraph 7 or of paragraph 8 hereof or
(iv) disregard of Executive's obligation pursuant to paragraph 7 hereof, to make
himself available for business in New York City during business hours,
consistent with maintenance of Executive's principal office and sold residence
in the greater Washington, D.C. metropolitan area, then CBS shall immediately
have the right to terminate this Agreement without further obligation.
(c) In the event that Executive is unable, due to illness, accident
or other physical or mental disability, to perform the essential functions of
his positions under this Agreement, even with reasonable accommodation, for a
continuous period of two (2) months, Company may terminate Executive's
employment. The termination of this Agreement because of Executive's incapacity
shall not affect Executive's eligibility for benefits under the terms of the
Westinghouse Long-Term Disability Plan, or its Accident and Sickness Plan and
Executive's continued accrual of service credit thereunder. Executive will
continue under the Westinghouse Salary Continuation and Extension Plan as
governed by Westinghouse policy based on service, and to the extent Executive
has enrolled in the Westinghouse Management Disability Plan, he would be covered
thereunder.
(d) If, during the Term of this Agreement the employment of
Executive by CBS should be terminated by CBS other than for cause, Executive
shall, despite the termination, be entitled to continue to receive his base
9
6
salary and guaranteed bonus as provided for under paragraph 2(a) and (b) of the
Agreement throughout the remainder of the Employment Term so long as Executive
is willing, ready and able to render exclusive services hereunder during such
remainder of the term. Nothing herein shall obligate CBS to utilize Executive's
services, and CBS shall have fulfilled all of its obligations hereunder by
payment to Executive of the applicable amounts set forth herein for the term of
this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement (including
without limitation anything contained in paragraph 3 above), Executive shall not
be entitled to receive any severance pay upon the termination of this Agreement
or of the Executive's employment hereunder at any time during the term of this
Agreement, unless the amount of severance under the Westinghouse policy which
Executive would otherwise be entitled to receive (had Executive and CBS not
entered into this Agreement) exceeds the amount of basic salary payable for the
remainder of the term of this Agreement, in which case Executive shall receive
such severance pay in lieu of the amount of basic salary payable for the
remainder of the term (i.e., Executive shall be entitled to receive the greater
of the remaining basic salary under this Agreement or the applicable amount of
severance).
11. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this
Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration held in New
York City and administered by the American Arbitration Association in accordance
with its Commercial Arbitration Rules, and judgment on the award rendered by the
arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
12. This Agreement contains the entire understanding of the parties
with respect to the subject matter thereof, supersedes any and all prior
agreements of the parties with respect to the subject matter thereof, and cannot
be changed or extended except by a writing signed by both parties hereto. The
above notwithstanding, the parties acknowledge and agree that Executive shall
remain entitled to receive both an Annual Incentive and Group W Long-Term
Incentive bonus for his 1995 performance, under the terms of
10
7
his April 29, 1993 letter agreement between Executive and Group W. This
Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties and
their respective legal representatives, executors, heirs, administrators,
successors and assigns. This Agreement and all matters and issues collateral
thereto other than benefits under a plan or option agreement which will be
subject to the laws specified therein, shall be governed by the laws of the
State of New York applicable to contracts performed entirely therein. If any
provision of this Agreement, as applied to either party or to any circumstance,
shall be adjudged by a court to be void or unenforceable, the same shall in no
way affect any other provision of this Agreement or the validity or
enforceability thereof.
13. All notices or other communications hereunder shall be given in
writing and shall be deemed given if served personally or mailed by registered
or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the parties at their addresses
above indicated, or at such other addresses as they may hereafter designate in
writing.
