RECITALS:

WHEREAS, Licensee is the licensee pursuant to authorizations by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) of radio broadcast station WXXY-FM, licensed to Highland Park, Illinois (the “Station”);

WHEREAS, during the term of this Agreement, Licensee wishes to retain Programmer to provide programming and related services for the Station, all in conformity with Licensee’s policies and procedures, FCC rules, regulations and policies for time brokerage arrangements, and the provisions hereof;

WHEREAS, Programmer agrees to use the Station to broadcast such programming of Programmer’s selection that is in conformity with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended and all rules, regulations and policies of the FCC (collectively, the “FCC Requirements”), subject to Licensee’s full authority to manage and control the operation of the Station;

WHEREAS, Programmer and Licensee have entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of January 2, 2003 (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Licensee has agreed to sell to Programmer, and Programmer has agreed to purchase from Licensee, certain of the radio station properties and assets relating to the Station as described therein under the terms and conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement; and

WHEREAS, Programmer and Licensee agree to cooperate to make this Agreement work to the benefit of the public and both parties and as contemplated by the terms set forth herein.

AGREEMENT:

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the above recitals, and mutual promises and covenants contained herein, the parties intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

SECTION 1 USE OF STATION AIR TIME.

1.1 Scope. During the Term (as defined in Section 1.2 below), Licensee shall make available to Programmer broadcast time on the Station as set forth in this Agreement. Programmer shall deliver such programming, at Programmer’s expense, to the Station’s transmitters or other authorized remote control points designated by Licensee. Programmer shall provide such programming of Programmer’s selection complete with commercial matter, news,

public service announcements and other suitable programming to the Station. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Licensee agrees to broadcast such programming in its entirety, including commercials at the times specified, on the facilities of the Station without interruption, deletion, or addition of any kind. Licensee may use such time as Licensee may require up to two (2) hours per week, for the broadcast of Licensee’s own regularly-scheduled news, public affairs, and other non-entertainment programming on the Station, to be scheduled at mutually agreeable times. Licensee may elect to set aside additional air time (up to two (2) hours per week) (the “Additional Time”) to be scheduled at a mutually agreeable time, for the broadcast of specific non-entertainment programming on issues of importance to the local community. Licensee shall provide Programmer with as much notice as possible, but in no event less than three (3) weeks’ notice, of its intention to set aside such Additional Time. All program time not reserved by or designated for Licensee shall be available for use by Programmer. Licensee agrees that Programmer may sell, or engage a third party to sell, commercial time during the programming provided by Programmer to the Station for Programmer’s account.

1.2 Term. The term of this Agreement (the “Term”) shall commence at 12:01 a.m. on January 13, 2003 (the “Effective Date”), and end on the Closing Date (as defined in the Purchase Agreement), unless terminated earlier pursuant to any of the provisions of Section 5 hereof.

SECTION 2 STATION OPERATIONS.

2.1 Licensee Control Over Station Operations.

(a) Licensee shall retain ultimate authority, power and control over the operations of the Station during the Term, including specifically, control over the personnel, programming and finances of the Station.

(b) Subject to Licensee’s ultimate authority, power and control over the operations of the Station, Programmer agrees to provide programming and related services to the Station. Such related services shall include: (i) the sale of advertising time on the Station; (ii) coordination of traffic and billing functions; (iii) maintenance, repair and replacement of the Station’s transmitting or studio equipment and the other assets used or held for use in the business and operation of the Station, other than the FCC Licenses (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) and (iv) other administrative or operational functions as Licensee and Programmer may agree to, consistent with FCC Requirements relating to time brokerage agreements. Programmer shall provide and perform Programmer’s obligations hereunder, including all related services, diligently and in a manner consistent in all material respects with broadcast industry practices.

(c) When on the Licensee’s premises, all employees of Programmer used to provide Programmer’s programming or other services to the Station shall be subject to the overall supervision of management personnel under Licensee’s control. Subject to Licensee’s ultimate authority, power and control over the operations of the Station, Programmer’s employees shall be solely accountable to Programmer.

2.2 Station Expenses. During the Term, Licensee shall be responsible for paying directly those expenses necessary to maintain compliance with the FCC Requirements and the terms of this Agreement. Programmer shall employ and be responsible for the salaries, taxes, programming costs, insurance and related costs for all personnel used in the production of the Programmer’s programming (including, without limitation, salespeople, traffic personnel, administrative and programming staff).

2.3 Fee. The fee payable by Programmer to Licensee in consideration for the airtime made available hereunder and the other agreements of the parties made hereunder, shall be in the amount and manner as set forth in Schedule 2.3 hereto.

2.4 Call Letters. Licensee hereby grants to Programmer a non-exclusive license to use the call letters “WXXY-FM” in connection with the provision of programming and related services for the Station in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The license granted by the foregoing sentence shall terminate and be of no further force or effect upon the earlier of the expiration of the Term or the termination of this Agreement.

SECTION 3 STATION PUBLIC INTEREST OBLIGATIONS.

3.1 Licensee Authority. Subject to Programmer’s obligations hereunder, Licensee shall be responsible for the Station’s compliance with all FCC Requirements and all other applicable laws. Programmer shall cooperate with Licensee, at Programmer’s expense, in taking such actions as Licensee may reasonably request to assist Licensee in maintaining the Station’s compliance with the FCC Requirements and all other applicable laws. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, Programmer recognizes that Licensee has certain obligations to operate the Station in the public interest, and to broadcast programming to meet the needs and interests of the Station’s communities of license and service areas. From time to time Licensee shall air, or if Licensee requests, Programmer shall air, programming on issues of importance to the local community. Nothing in this Agreement shall abrogate or limit the unrestricted authority of Licensee to discharge Licensee’s obligations to the public and to comply with the FCC Requirements, and Licensee shall have no liability or obligation to Programmer, for taking any action that Licensee reasonably and in good faith believes to be necessary or appropriate to discharge such obligations or comply with such laws, rules, regulations or policies.

3.2 Additional Licensee Obligations. Although both Licensee and Programmer shall cooperate in the broadcast of emergency information over the Station, Licensee shall retain the right, without any liability or obligation to Programmer, to interrupt Programmer’s programming in case of an emergency or for programming which, in the good faith judgment of Licensee, is of greater local or national public importance. In all such cases, Licensee shall use Licensee’s commercially reasonable efforts to provide Programmer prior written notice of Licensee’s intention to interrupt Programmer’s programming. Licensee shall coordinate with Programmer the Station’s hourly station identification and any other announcements required to be aired by FCC Requirements. Licensee shall (a) maintain the Station’s local public inspection file within the Station’s community of license or at the Station’s main studio, and (b) prepare and place in such inspection file in a timely manner all material required by Section 73.3526 of the FCC’s Requirements, including the Station’s quarterly issues and program lists. Programmer shall,

upon request by Licensee, promptly provide Licensee with such information concerning Programmer’s programs and advertising as is necessary to assist Licensee in the preparation of such information or to enable Licensee to verify independently the Station’s compliance with any other laws, rules, regulations or policies applicable to the Station’s operation.

SECTION 4 STATION PROGRAMMING & OPERATIONAL POLICIES.

4.1 Broadcast Station Programming Policy Statement. Licensee has adopted a Broadcast Station Programming Policy Statement (the “Policy Statement”), a copy of which appears as Schedule 4.1 hereto and which may be amended from time to time in order to comply with FCC Requirements by Licensee upon written notice to Programmer. Programmer agrees and covenants to comply in all material respects with the Policy Statement, with all FCC Requirements, and with all changes subsequently made by Licensee (in good faith) or the FCC. Programmer shall furnish or cause to be furnished the artistic personnel and material for the programs as provided by this Agreement and all programs shall be prepared and presented in conformity in all material respects with FCC Requirements and with the Policy Statement. All advertising spots and promotional material or announcements shall comply in all material respects with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations and policies and the Policy Statement, and shall be produced in accordance with quality standards established by Programmer. If Licensee determines that a program, commercial announcement or promotional material supplied by Programmer is for any reason, in Licensee’s reasonable discretion, contrary to the public interest, or does not comply with the Policy Statement, Licensee may, upon written notice to Programmer (to the extent time permits such notice), and without any liability or obligation to Programmer, suspend or cancel such program, commercial announcement or promotional material and substitute its own programming or, if Licensee requests, Programmer shall provide promptly suitable programming, commercial announcement or other announcement or promotional material.

4.2 Licensee Control of Station Programming. Notwithstanding any contrary provision contained in this Agreement, and consistent with Licensee’s obligations pursuant to the FCC Requirements, Licensee shall have the right, without any liability or obligation to Programmer, to delete or preempt any material contained in any programming or commercial matter furnished by Programmer for broadcast over the Station that Licensee reasonably and in good faith believes to be unsuitable for broadcast or the broadcast of which Licensee reasonably and in good faith believes would be contrary to the public interest. Licensee shall have the right, without any liability or obligation to Programmer to broadcast Licensee’s own programming in place of such deleted or preempted material. Licensee expressly agrees that Licensee’s right to reject or preempt any of the programming will be exercised only for cause and will not be exercised in an arbitrary manner, for the commercial advantage of Licensee, or to cause harm to the business or operations of Programmer.

4.3 Political Advertising. Licensee shall oversee and shall take ultimate responsibility for the Station’s compliance with the political broadcasting rules of the FCC and Sections 312 and 315 of the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”), including the provision of

equal opportunities, compliance with lowest unit charge requirements, and the provision of reasonable access to federal political candidates. Programmer shall cooperate with Licensee, at Programmer’s expense, to assist Licensee in complying with the political broadcasting rules of the FCC. Programmer shall supply such information promptly to Licensee as may be necessary to comply with the lowest unit charge and other applicable political broadcast requirements of federal law. To the extent that Licensee reasonably and in good faith believes necessary or appropriate, Programmer shall release advertising availabilities to Licensee to permit Licensee to comply with the political broadcasting rules of the FCC and Sections 312 and 315 of the Act. Programmer shall be entitled to all revenues received by Licensee for such advertising.

4.4 Advertising of Credit Terms. To the extent prohibited by the rules of the Federal Trade Commission, no advertising of credit terms shall be made over broadcast material supplied hereunder by Programmer beyond mention of the fact that credit terms are available.

4.5 Payola/Plugola. In order to enable Licensee to fulfill Licensee’s obligations under Section 317 of the Act, Programmer, in compliance with Section 507 of the Act, will, in advance of any scheduled broadcast by the Station, disclose to Licensee any information of which Programmer has knowledge or which has been disclosed to Programmer as to any money, service, or other valuable consideration that any person has paid or accepted, or has agreed to pay or to accept, for the inclusion of any matter as a part of the programming or commercial matter to be supplied to Licensee pursuant to this Agreement. Programmer will cooperate with Licensee, at Programmer’s expense, as necessary to ensure compliance with this provision. Commercial matter with obvious sponsorship identifications shall not require disclosure in addition to that contained in the commercial copy.

4.6 Programmer Compliance with Copyright Act. Programmer represents and warrants that Programmer will have full authority to broadcast the programming on the Station; that Programmer shall not broadcast any material in violation of the Copyright Act; and the performing rights to all music contained in broadcast material supplied hereunder by Programmer are licensed by BMI, ASCAP, or SESAC, are in the public domain, are controlled by Programmer, or are cleared at the source by Programmer.

SECTION 5 TERMINATION.

5.1 Termination by Programmer. This Agreement may be terminated by Programmer by written notice to Licensee, if Programmer is not then in material default or breach hereof or of the Purchase Agreement, if Licensee is in material breach of Licensee’s representations or Licensee’s material obligations hereunder and has failed to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of written notice of the breach from Programmer.

5.2 Termination by Licensee. This Agreement may be terminated by Licensee by written notice to Programmer, if Licensee is not then in material default or breach hereof or of the Purchase Agreement, if Programmer is in material breach of Programmer’s representations or Programmer’s material obligations hereunder and Programmer has failed to cure such breach within thirty (30) days of written notice of the breach from Licensee.

5.3 Termination. If not otherwise earlier terminated, this Agreement will terminate upon the first to occur of any of the following:

(a) this Agreement is declared invalid or illegal in whole or material part by an order or decree of an administrative agency or court of competent jurisdiction the effect of which would be to materially curtail Programmer’s activities hereunder and such order or decree has become final and no longer subject to further administrative or judicial review;

(b) there has been a material change in FCC Requirements that would cause this Agreement to be in material violation thereof and such change is in effect and not the subject of an appeal or further administrative review;

(d) the termination of the Purchase Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof.

5.4 Severability. The parties hereto intend that the transactions contemplated hereunder comply in all respects with FCC Requirements. If any provision of this Agreement shall be declared void, illegal, or invalid by any governmental authority with jurisdiction thereof, the remainder of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without such offending provision so long as such remainder substantially reflects the intent and economic or other benefits of the original agreement of the parties hereunder. Furthermore, in such event, the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to reach agreement promptly on lawful substitute provisions in place of said offending provision so as to effectuate more closely their intent as expressed hereunder. If any governmental authority grants to any other entity or individual rights which are not contained in this Agreement, then the parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to amend this Agreement to provide the parties hereto such lawful provisions which comport with any rules, regulations and policies adopted after the date of this Agreement.

5.5 Force Majeure. Any failure or impairment of the assets of the Station or any delay or interruption in the broadcast of programs, or failure at any time to furnish facilities, in whole or in part, for broadcast, due to acts of God, restrictions by any governmental authority, civil riot, fire, strike, labor unrest, floods or any other similar cause not reasonably within the control of Licensee or Programmer, shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement and Licensee will not be liable to Programmer nor will Programmer be liable to Licensee for any liability or obligation with respect thereto.

5.6 Insurance; Risk of Loss. From the Effective Date through the end of the Term, Programmer shall maintain with reputable insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Licensee, insurance in such amounts and with respect to such risks reasonably acceptable to Licensee, including broadcast liability insurance naming Licensee as an additional insured, and general comprehensive insurance, also naming Licensee as an additional insured, each with a commercially reasonable amount of coverage as is conventionally carried by broadcasters operating radio stations in the area comparable to those of the Station. The risk of any loss,

damage, impairment, confiscation, or condemnation of any equipment or other personal property owned or leased and used by Programmer in the performance of its obligations hereunder shall be borne by Programmer at all times throughout the Term.

SECTION 6 INDEMNIFICATION.
