the programming on the Station. Moreover, until the consummation of the
assignment of the FCC licenses for the Station to Freedom, this Agreement is
subject to, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, the LMA between Freedom
and the FCC Licensee, a copy of which has been provided to Programmer. Prior to
the consummation of the assignment, "FCC Licensee" shall refer to Xxxxxxx X.

2. Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on a date not
earlier than May 11, 1998 or later than May 18, 1998 (the "Commencement Date").
The Commencement Date shall be selected by Freedom by giving not less than ten
(10) days prior notice to Programmer. Starting on the Commencement Date, Freedom
agrees to make broadcast time available to Programmer in accordance with the
schedule described below and to cause to be broadcast on the Station the Pro

the operation of the Station by the FCC Licensee is necessary during the

notice to Freedom. Following the consummation of the assignment of the Station
to Freedom, Freedom shall use its best efforts to schedule and perform any such
maintenance work at times other than during the Programmer Time.
4.3 Interruption Of Normal Operations; Force Majeure. Any
failure or impairment of facilities or any delay or interruption in the

(i) the Policy Statement; (ii) all applicable federal, state and local laws and
regulations, including the rules and regulations of the FCC and the Federal
Trade Commission ("FTC'), and the Communications Act of 1934, as amended
("Act"); and (iii) all subsequent changes to such rules and regulations and the
Act. Programmer acknowl edges that Freedom has not urged, counseled or advised
the use of any unfair business practice. If either Freedom or the FCC Licensee
determines that a program supplied by Programmer, within its sole discretion,

extent time permits such notice), suspend or cancel such program without
liability to Freedom or the FCC Licensee, subject to Section 7.2 herein. Freedom
will use reasonable efforts to provide such written notice to Programmer prior
to the suspension or cancellation of any such program, subject to the notice
provided to it by the FCC Licensee.
5.2 Programmer Compliance With Copyright Act. Programmer
represents and warrants to Freedom that Programmer has full legal authority for
the broadcast of its programming on the Station, and that Programmer shall not
provide for broadcast of any material in violation of the Copyright Act or any
copyright rules
and regulations. All music supplied by Programmer shall be: (i) licensed by
ASCAP, SESAC or BMI; (ii) in the public domain; or (iii) cleared at the source

shall be responsible for payment of the commissions due to any national sales
representa tive engaged by it for the purpose of selling national advertising
which is carried during the programming it provides to Freedom. Freedom shall
retain all revenues from its sale of Station's advertising during the hours each
week in which Freedom provides the Station with its own programming outside of
the Programmer Time.
5.4 Payola. Programmer agrees that it will not accept any
consider ation, compensation, gift or gratuity of any kind whatsoever,
regardless of its value or form, including, but not limited to, a commission,
discount, bonus, material, supplies or other merchandise, services or labor
(collectively "Consideration"), whether or not pursuant to written contracts or
agreements between Programmer and merchants or advertisers, unless the payer is
identified in the program for which Consideration was provided as having paid
for or furnished such Consideration, in accordance with the Act and FCC
requirements. Programmer agrees that every six (6) months, or more frequently at
the request of the FCC Licensee or Freedom, it will execute and provide Freedom
with a Payola Affidavit from each of its employees involved with the Station
substantially in the form attached hereto as Attachment IV.
5.5 Cooperation On Programming. Programmer shall provide
Freedom with information concerning such of Programmer's programs as are
responsive to community issues, as FCC Licensee shall reasonably request, so as
to assist the FCC Licensee in the satisfaction of its public service programming
obligations. Programmer shall also provide Freedom upon request such other
information necessary to enable the FCC Licensee to prepare records and reports
required by the Commission or other local, state or federal government entities,
including quarterly issues/programs lists.
5.6 Station Identification, PSAs And EAS. Freedom shall retain
one minute per hour during the Programmer Time for the purpose of station
identifi cation and the airing of public service announcements ("PSAs"). The
definition of PSA shall be an announcement for which no charge is made and which
promotes activities of federal, state and local governments, or programs,
activities or services of nonprofit organizations (e.g. Red Cross blood
donations). Provided, however, that during any World Cup soccer match, including
the pre and post-match shows, Freedom shall retain only the minimum time
necessary to make station identification announcements. Programmer shall
cooperate with Freedom and the FCC Licensee to ensure compliance with the
Commission's rules regarding the Emergency Alert System (EAS) tests.

Freedom to assist the FCC Licensee in complying with all rules of the FCC regard

political candidate for federal elective office, and the Station's political
broadcast policies. Programmer shall promptly supply to Freedom such
information, including all inquires concerning the broadcast of political
advertising, as may be necessary to
comply with FCC rules and policies, including the lowest unit rate, equal
opportuni ties, reasonable access, political file and related requirements of
federal law and regulations. The FCC Licensee, in consultation with Freedom, and
Programmer, shall develop a statement which discloses its political broadcasting
policies to political candidates, and Programmer shall follow those policies and
rates in the sale of political programming and advertising. In the event that
Programmer fails to satisfy the political broadcasting requirements under the
Act and the rules and regulations of the FCC and such failure inhibits the FCC
Licensee in its compliance with the political broadcasting requirements of the
FCC, then to the extent reason ably necessary to assure such compliance,
Programmer shall either (i) promptly reimburse Freedom for the cost of rebates
to political advertisers or (ii) release broadcast time and/or advertising
availabilities to Freedom at no cost to Freedom.
5.8 Handling Of Mail. Except as required to comply with FCC
rules and policies following consummation of the assignment, including those
regarding the maintenance of the public inspection file, Freedom shall not be

of Program mer has agreed in writing to do so.
5.9 Insurance. Programmer shall maintain throughout the term
of this Agreement insurance sufficient to cover general liability and errors and
omis sions with regard to the programming it provides the Station. Such
insurance shall name Freedom as an insured party.

Licensee shall maintain absolute rights to suspend or preempt
programming as provided in Section 5.1 herein, and the FCC Licensee right to
suspend or preempt
programming as provided in Section 7.1 herein.
6. Responsibility For Employees And Expenses. Programmer shall employ
and be responsible for the salaries, commissions, taxes, insurance and all other
related costs of all personnel and property involved in the production and
delivery of Programmer's programming. Programmer shall be responsible for all
liabilities, debts and obligations of Programmer based upon the purchase of air
time and delivery of programming including, without limitation, accounts
payable, barter agreements and unaired advertisements. Freedom or FCC Licensee
shall be respon sible for the employment of a board operator who shall insert
commercial matter provided by Programmer, during the Programmer Time, as set out
in daily logs to be provided in advance by Programmer. Freedom or FCC Licensee
shall provide Programmer with ground or roof rights as necessary for a satellite
receive dish up to 3.5 meters in diameter to receive Programmer's programming at
or near the Station's studio facility.
7. FCC Licensee's Operating Of Station. Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement, the FCC Licensee shall have full authority and
power over the operation of the Station during the period of this Agreement,
including the Station's finances, personnel and programming policies.
7.1 FCC Licensee Control Of Station Operations. Programmer
agrees that the FCC Licensee shall retain control over the policies, programming
and operations of the Station; including, without limitation, (i) the right to
accept or reject any programming or advertisements provided by Programmer
pursuant to Section 5.1, (ii) the right to preempt any programs provided by
Programmer that are not in the public interest, or in order to broadcast a
program deemed by the FCC Licensee to be of greater national, regional or local
interest, and (iii) the right to take any other actions necessary for compliance
with federal, state and local laws, the Act
and the rules, regulations and policies of other federal government entities,
including the FTC and the Department of Justice. Freedom will use its best
efforts to give Programmer reasonable notice of the FCC Licensee's intention to
preempt Program mer's programs. The FCC Licensee also shall retain the right to
break into Program mer's programming in case of an emergency.
7.2 Preemption Or Rejection Of Programming.
(a) Except as provided in Section 7.2(b) below with
respect to World Cup soccer matches and the substitution of Paid Programming (as
defined below), in the event that the FCC Licensee or Freedom preempts or
rejects program ming from Programmer for any reason pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement, or in the event that the Station experiences a Service
Interruption as defined herein, the amount due Freedom for that month pursuant
to Section 2 and Attachment I shall be prorated, based on the percentage that
the total hours in that calendar month of programming preempted, rejected or not
aired due to a Service Interruption bears to the total amount of programming
that Programmer would have broadcast over the Station during the month if no
programming had been preempted or rejected and/or no Service Interruption had
occurred. The difference between the amount actually paid in advance for that
month and the amount due following the proration shall be deducted from the next
monthly payment made by Programmer to Freedom pursuant to Attachment I.
Provided, however, that no credit shall be given based upon a Service
Interruption unless the Service Interruptions in any month exceed two (2) hours
in the aggregate. Moreover, no credit shall be given for any Service Interrup
tion caused by the negligent or intentional act or omission of
Programmer and/or its employees or agents. For purposes of this section,
"Service Interruption" is defined as the Station being off the air, or not
operating with at least ninety percent (90%) of its licensed power, during the
Programmer Time.
(b) Programmer shall receive a payment credit as
provided below ("Payment Credit") in the event that Freedom or the FCC Licensee
preempts or rejects (i) any of Programmer's programming in order to substitute
other program ming for which a payment (in cash, trade or barter) has been made
to Freedom or the FCC Licensee ("Paid Programming"), except as necessary to
comply with the FCC political rules pursuant to Section 5.7 herein, or (ii) any
time within a World Cup Soccer match in Programmer's programming, for any reason
other than coverage of a X.X.xxxxx, national, regional or local emergency. The
Payment Credit shall be an amount equal to the loss of revenue during the time
the Programmer's programming was preempted, which shall include the loss of
local and national revenues and an allocation of Radio Unica network revenues.
The allocation of Radio Unica network revenues shall be equal to the percentage
of Radio Unica network revenues that is the same percentage determined by
dividing the Hispanic population of the Dallas radio market by the total
Hispanic population reached by the Radio Unica network. The Payment Credit shall
be deducted from the next monthly payment made by Program mer to Freedom
pursuant to Attachment I. In the event that Programmer seeks a Payment Credit,
it shall provide Freedom with appropriate documentation demon strating its lost
revenues.
7.3 Licensee Responsibility For FCC Compliance. The FCC
Licensee shall at all times be solely responsible for meeting all of the
Commission's requirements with respect to public service programming, for
maintaining the political and public inspection files and the Station logs, for
the preparation of issues/programs lists, and for retaining and supervising an
engineer to ensure
compliance with the Commission's rules and regulations governing the technical
operation of the Station. Programmer shall provide Freedom with information
necessary to maintain all necessary records to permit the FCC Licensee to meet
its obligations under this paragraph.
8. Indemnification.
8.1 Programmer shall indemnify and hold Freedom and its
officers, directors, shareholders, agents, and employees harmless against any

Programmer's obligation to hold Freedom harmless under this Section shall
survive a termination of this Agreement until the expiration of all applicable
statutes of limitations.

officers, directors, shareholders, agents, and employees harmless against any

of privacy, infringe ment of copyrights or proprietary rights and any other
violations of the rights of any third party, resulting from the broadcast of
Freedom's programs, or (b) any action taken by Freedom or its employees or
agents with respect to the Station, or any failure by Freedom or its employees
or agents to take any action with respect to the Station, including but not
limited to Freedom's payment and performance obligations and liabilities, unless
