(hereinafter sometimes referred to as the "Company")
and The Bank of New York, a New York banking

referred to as the "Trustee") under the Indenture
dated as of October 1, 1997, between the Company and
the Trustee (the "Indenture"); as set forth in
Section 5.01 hereto and except as otherwise set forth

used as defined in the Indenture.
WHEREAS, the Company executed and delivered the Indenture to
the Trustee to provide for the future issuance of its Securities, to be issued
from time to time in series as might be determined by the Company under the
Indenture, in an unlimited aggregate principal amount which may be authenticated
and delivered thereunder as in the Indenture provided;
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, the Company
desires to provide for the establishment of a new series of its Securities to be
known as its 5.0% Senior Notes due March 15, 2012 (said series being hereinafter
referred to as the "Notes"), the form of such Notes and the terms, provisions
and conditions thereof to be as provided in the Indenture and this Sixteenth
Supplemental Indenture;
WHEREAS, the Company desires and has requested the Trustee to
join with it in the execution and delivery of this Sixteenth Supplemental
Indenture, and all requirements necessary to make this Sixteenth Supplemental
Indenture a valid instrument, enforceable in accordance with its terms, and to
make the Notes, when executed by the Company and authenticated and delivered by
the Trustee, the valid obligations of the Company have been performed and
fulfilled, and the execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture and the
Notes have been in all respects duly authorized.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the purchase and
acceptance of the Notes by the holders thereof, and for the purpose of setting
forth, as provided in the Indenture, the form of the Notes and the terms,
provisions and conditions thereof, the Company covenants and agrees with the
Trustee as follows:
ARTICLE I
General Terms and Conditions of the Notes
SECTION 1.01. (a) There shall be and is hereby authorized a
series of Securities designated the "5.0% Senior Notes due March 15, 2012",
initially limited in aggregate principal amount to $300,000,000. Without the
consent of the Holders of the Notes, the aggregate principal amount of the
Notes, Notes may be increased in the future, on the same terms and conditions
and with the same CUSIP number as the Notes. The
3
Notes shall mature and the principal thereof shall be due and payable, together
with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon on March 15, 2012.
SECTION 1.02. The Notes shall be initially issued as Global
Securities. Principal and interest on the Notes issued in certificated form will
be payable, the transfer of such Notes will be registrable and such Notes will
be exchangeable for Notes, bearing identical terms and provisions at the office
or agency of the Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City and State of New
York provided for that purpose and transfers of the Notes will also be
registrable at any of the Company's other offices or agencies as the Company may
maintain for that purpose; provided, however, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the registered holder at
such address as shall appear in the Security Register and that the payment of
principal with respect to the Notes will only be made upon surrender of the
applicable Notes to the Trustee.
SECTION 1.03. Each Note will bear interest at the rate of 5.0%
per annum from December 9, 2003 until the principal thereof becomes due and
payable, payable (subject to the provisions of Article II) semi-annually in
arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each, an "Interest Payment
Date", commencing on March 15, 2004), to the person in whose name such Note (or
one or more Predecessor Securities) are registered at the close of business on
the Regular Record Date for such interest installment, which, except as set
forth below, shall be, March 1 or September 1 next preceding the Interest
Payment Date with respect to such interest installment. Any installment of
interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall forthwith cease to be
payable to the registered holder of Notes on such Regular Record Date and may be
paid to the person in whose name such Notes (or one or more Predecessor
Securities) are registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date to
be fixed by the Trustee for the payment of such defaulted interest, notice
whereof to be given to the registered holders of the Notes, as applicable, not
less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid at any time
in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any
securities exchange on which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as
may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture.
The amount of interest payable for any period will be computed
on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. In the event
that any date on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day,
then payment of interest payable on such date will be made on the next
succeeding day which is a Business Day (and without any interest or other
payment in respect of any such delay).
SECTION 1.04. The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund.
SECTION 1.05. Section 101 of the Indenture is hereby amended,
solely with respect to the Notes, by amending and restating the definition of
"Principal Property" as follows: "Principal Property" means any radio
broadcasting, television broadcasting, outdoor advertising or live entertainment
property located in the United States owned or leased by the Company or any
Subsidiary, unless, in the opinion of the Board of Directors of the Company,
such properties are not in the aggregate of material
4
importance to the total business conducted by the Company and its Subsidiaries
as an entirety.
ARTICLE II
Optional Redemption of the Notes
SECTION 2.01. The Notes will be redeemable as a whole at any
time or in part from time to time, at the option of the Company, at a redemption
price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of such Notes and
(ii) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of
principal and interest thereon from the redemption date to March 15, 2012,
discounted to the redemption date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year
consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus
20 basis points, plus, in either case, any interest accrued but not paid to the
date of redemption. Notice of any redemption will be mailed at least 30 days but
no more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of the Notes to
be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on
and after the redemption date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or
portions thereof called for redemption. The Notes will not be subject to any
sinking fund provision.
"Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any redemption date for
the Notes, (i) the yield, under the heading which represents the average for the
immediately preceding week, appearing in the most recently published statistical
release designated "H.15(519)" or any successor publication which is published
weekly by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and which
establishes yields on actively traded United States Treasury securities adjusted
to constant maturity under the caption "Treasury Constant Maturities," for the
maturity corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue (if no maturity is
within three months before or after the maturity date, yields for the two
published maturities most closely corresponding to the Comparable Treasury Issue
shall be determined and the Treasury Rate shall be interpolated or extrapolated
from such yields on a straight line basis, rounding to the nearest month), or
(ii) if such release referred to in clause (i) (or any successor release) is not
published during the week preceding the calculation date or does not contain
such yields, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield
maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, calculated using a price for the
Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount)
equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such redemption date. The Treasury
Rate shall be calculated on the third Business Day preceding the redemption
date.
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury
security selected by an "Independent Investment Banker" as having a maturity
comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be
utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial
practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable
maturity to the remaining term of such Notes.
"Independent Investment Banker" means, with respect to any
redemption date for the Notes, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. and its successors
or, if such firm or
5
any successor to such firm, as the case may be, is unwilling or unable to select
the Comparable Treasury Issue, an independent banking institution of national
standing appointed by the Trustee after consultation with the Company.
"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any
redemption date for the Notes, (i) the average of four Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations (as defined below) for the redemption date, after excluding the
highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the
Trustee obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the
average of all such quotations obtained.
"Reference Treasury Dealer" means Deutsche Bank Securities
Inc. and three other primary U.S. Government securities dealers in New York City
(each, a "Primary Treasury Dealer") appointed by the Trustee in consultation
with the Company; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to
be a Primary Treasury Dealer, the Company shall substitute therefor another
Primary Treasury Dealer.
"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to
each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date, the average, as
determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount)
quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m.
on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date.
ARTICLE III

Authentication to be endorsed thereon are to be substantially in the following

Cede & Co.
or registered assigns, the principal sum of $[ ] at the office or agency of the
Company in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, on March 15, 2012 in
such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment
shall be legal tender for the payment of public and private debts, and to pay
interest on said principal sum semiannually on March 15 and September 15 of each
year, commencing March 15, 2004 (each an "Interest Payment Date"), at said
office or agency, in like coin or currency, at the rate per annum specified in
the title hereof, from March 15 and September 15, as the case may be, next
preceding the date of this Note to which interest on the Notes has been paid or
duly provided for (unless the date hereof is the date to which interest on the
Notes has been paid or duly provided for, in which case from the date of this
Note), or if no interest has been paid on the Notes or duly provided for, from
December 9, 2003 until payment of said principal sum has been made or duly

day of any March or September and before the next succeeding March 15 and
September 15, this Note shall bear interest from such March 15 or September 15,
as the case may be; provided, however, that if the Company shall default in the
payment of interest due on such March 15 or September 15, then this Note shall
bear interest from the next preceding March 15 or September 15 to which interest
on the Notes has been paid or duly provided for, or, if no interest has been
paid on the Notes or duly provided for, from December 9, 2003. The interest so
payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any March 15 or September
15 will, except as provided in the Indenture dated as of October 1, 1997, as

the Company, be paid by check mailed to the registered address of such Person.
Any such
7

shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on such Regular
Record Date and may be paid either to the Person in whose name this Note (or one

other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities
exchange on which the Notes may be listed and upon such notice as may be

foregoing, in the case of interest payable at Stated Maturity, such interest
shall be paid to the same Person to whom the principal hereof is payable.
Interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting
of twelve 30-day months.
The Bank of New York will be the Paying Agent and the Security

made upon this Note or such other Notes.
