30, 1998 by and among the Company, the Guarantors and The Bank of New York, as
trustee (the "Trustee").
The Notes will be offered and sold to the Initial Purchasers

the offering of the Notes, a description of the Company and any material
developments relating to the Company occurring after the date of the most recent
historical financial statements included therein.
The Initial Purchasers and their direct and indirect
transferees of the Notes will be entitled to the benefits of the Registration
Rights Agreement, substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
"REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT"), pursuant to which the Company has agreed,
among other things, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
"COMMISSION") under the circumstances set forth therein (i) a registration
statement (the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") under the Act relating to the Company's
9% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008, Series B (the "EXCHANGE NOTES"), to be
offered in exchange for the Notes or (ii) a shelf registration statement
pursuant to Rule 415 under the Act relating to the resale of the Notes by

2. Representations and Warranties of each of the Issuers.
Each of the Issuers represents and warrants to and agrees with the Initial
Purchasers that:
(a) The Offering Circular and any amendment or
supplement thereto as of the date thereof does not and as of the Closing Date
(as defined in Section 3 below) will not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not
misleading, except that the representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 2(a) do not apply to statements or omissions made in reliance upon and
in conformity with information relating to the Initial Purchasers furnished to
the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Initial Purchasers expressly for
use in the Offering Circular or any amendment or supplement thereto.
(b) Each of the Issuers has been duly organized, is
validly existing and is in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction of
organization, with all requisite power and authority to own its properties and
conduct its businesses as now conducted as described in the Offering Circular,
and is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in all other
jurisdictions where the ownership or leasing of its properties or the conduct of
its businesses requires such qualification, except where the failure to be so
qualified would not have a material adverse effect on the business, prospects,
condition (financial or other) or results of operations of the Issuers, taken as
a whole (a "MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT"). As of the Closing Date, the Company will
have the authorized, issued and outstanding capitalization set forth in the
Offering Circular under the caption "Description of Capital Stock;" the
outstanding shares of capital stock of each of the Issuers have been duly
authorized and validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and were not

Indebtedness--Senior Credit Facility," all of the outstanding shares of capital
stock of each of the Guarantors are owned (directly or indirectly) by the
Company, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, equities and claims or
restrictions on transferability (other than those imposed by the Act and the
securities or blue sky laws of certain jurisdictions) or voting. The Company
does not own, directly or indirectly, any shares of stock or any other equity or
long-term debt securities or have any equity interest in any firm, partnership,
joint venture or other entity other than interests in its subsidiaries or as
described in the Offering Circular.

authority to execute, deliver and perform each of its obligations under the
Notes, the Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes. The Notes, when
issued, will be in the form contemplated by the Indenture and conform in all
material respects to the description thereof in the Offering Circular. The
Notes, the Exchange Notes and the Private Exchange Notes have each been duly
authorized by the Company and, when executed by the Company and authenticated by
the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture and, in the case
of the Notes, delivered to and paid for by the Initial Purchasers in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement, will be entitled to the benefits of the
Indenture and will constitute valid and legally binding obligations of the
Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except
that the enforcement thereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws now or
hereafter in effect relating to creditors, rights generally, and (ii) general
principles of equity and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding

thereof may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to creditors, rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity
and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be
brought (regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in

(e) The Guarantees have been duly authorized by each
Guarantor and, when executed by the Guarantors and authenticated by the Trustee
in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture will, upon the execution,
authentication and delivery of the Notes and payment therefor in accordance with
the terms of this Agreement, be entitled to the benefits of the Indenture and
will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Guarantors
enforceable in accordance with its terms, except that the enforcement thereof
may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent
conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating
to creditor's rights and remedies generally and (ii) general principles of

applicable to any of the Issuers, which violation would have a Material Adverse
Effect, or (iii) in default in the performance or observance of any obligation,
agreement, covenant or condition contained in any indenture, mortgage, deed of
trust, loan agreement, note, lease, license, franchise agreement, permit,
certificate, contract or other agreement or instrument to which any of the

violation or default would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(g) Each of the Issuers has all requisite corporate
power and authority to enter into the Registration Rights Agreement. The
Registration Rights Agreement has been duly authorized by each of the Issuers
and, when executed and delivered by the Issuers, will constitute a valid and
legally binding obligation of the Issuers, enforceable against each of the
Issuers in accordance with its terms, except that (A) the enforcement thereof
may be subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance,
reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect
relating to creditors, rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity
and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be

(h) The execution, delivery and performance by the
Company and the Guarantors of this Agreement, the Notes, the Guarantees, the
Indenture and the Registration Rights Agreement and the consummation by the
Issuers of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby will not conflict
with or constitute or result in a breach or violation by the Company of any of
(i) the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default by any Issuer under, any
contract, indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, note, lease,
license, franchise agreement or other agreement or instrument to which any
Issuer is a party or to which any of them or their respective properties is
subject (each a "CONTRACT" or collectively, the "CONTRACTS"), which conflict,
breach, violation or default would have a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) the
certificate of incorporation or bylaws (or similar organizational document) of
any Issuer, as the same will be in effect on the Closing Date, or (iii)
(assuming compliance with all applicable state securities and blue sky laws and
assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Initial
Purchasers in Section 8 hereof) any statute, judgment, decree, order, rule or
regulation of any court or governmental agency or other body applicable to any
Issuer or any of their properties, which conflict, breach, violation or default
would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(i) The audited consolidated financial statements of
the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries included in the Offering Circular
present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position,
results of operations and cash flows of the Company and its consolidated
subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods to which they relate and have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on
a consistent basis, except as otherwise stated therein. The unaudited
consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in the Offering

consolidated subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods to which they relate,
subject to year-end audit adjustments and the more detailed note requirements
for audited statements, and have been prepared in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis, except as
otherwise stated therein. To the Company's knowledge, PricewaterhouseCoopers,

Regulation S-X promulgated under the Exchange Act; (C) has been prepared in

therein are reasonably appropriate to give effect to the transactions or
circumstances referred to therein.
(k) Except as described in the Offering Circular,
there is not pending or, to the knowledge of any Issuer, threatened, any action,
suit, proceeding, inquiry or investigation to which any Issuer is a party, or to
which the property of any Issuer or any Guarantor is subject, before or brought
by any court or governmental agency or body (including, without limitation, the
FCC), that would have a Material Adverse Effect.

other rights to use all material patents, trademarks, service marks, trade

knows of any such infringement of or conflict with) asserted rights of others

would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(m) Each of the Issuers has obtained, or has applied
for, all licenses, permits, franchises and other governmental authorizations

party or parties thereto, except such defaults or breaches as would not have a
Material Adverse Effect.
(p) Each of the Issuers has filed all necessary
federal, state and foreign income and franchise tax returns, except where the
failure to so file such returns would not have a Material Adverse Effect, and
each has paid all taxes shown as due thereon; and other than tax deficiencies
which any Issuer is contesting in good faith and for which adequate reserves
have been provided, there is no tax deficiency that has been asserted against
any Issuer that would have a Material Adverse Effect.
(q) None of the Issuers nor any agent acting on their
behalf has taken or will take any action that might cause this Agreement or the
issuance and sale of the Securities to violate Regulation T, U or X of the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, in each case as in effect, or as the

lease), free and clear of all liens, charges, encumbrances or restrictions,
except, in each case, as described in the Offering Circular or to the extent the
failure to have such title or the existence of such liens, charges, encumbrances
or restrictions would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

under the Act ("QIB"). The Initial Purchasers agrees with the Issuers that (i)

any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used
in Regulation D under the Act) or in any manner involving a public offering
within the meaning of Section 4(2) of the Act; and (ii) it has and will solicit
offers for the Securities only from, and will offer the Securities only to (A)
in the case of offers inside the United States, persons whom it reasonably
believes to be QIBs or, if any such person is buying for one or more
institutional accounts for which such person is acting as fiduciary or agent,
only when such person has represented to it that each such account is a QIB, to
whom notice has been given that such sale or delivery is being made in reliance
on Rule 144A, and, in each case, in transactions under Rule 144A and (B) in the
case of offers outside the United States, to persons other than U.S. persons
("FOREIGN PURCHASERS," which term shall include dealers or other professional
fiduciaries in the United States acting on a discretionary basis for foreign
beneficial owners (other than an estate or trust)); provided, however, that, in
the case of this clause (B), in purchasing such Securities such persons are
deemed to have represented and agreed as provided under the caption "Notice to
Investors" contained in the Offering Circular (each such entity referenced in
this clause (ii), an "ELIGIBLE PURCHASER").
(b) The Initial Purchasers represents and warrants (as
to itself only) with respect to offers and sales outside the United States that
(i) it has complied and will comply with all applicable laws and regulations in
each jurisdiction in which it acquires, offers, sells or delivers Securities or
has in its possession or distributes the Offering Circular or any such other
material, in all cases at its own expense; (ii) the Securities have not been and
will not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account
or benefit of, U.S. persons except in accordance with Regulation S under the Act
or pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Act; (iii)
it has offered the Securities and will offer and sell the Securities (A) as part
of its distribution at any time and (B) otherwise until 40 days after the later
of the commencement of the offering and the Closing Date, only in accordance
with Rule 903 of Regulation S and, accordingly, neither it nor any persons
acting on its behalf have engaged or will engage in any directed selling efforts
(within the meaning of Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and any
such persons have complied and will comply with the offering restrictions
requirement of Regulation S; and (iv) it agrees that, at or prior to
confirmation of sales of the Securities, it will have sent to each distributor,
dealer or person receiving a selling concession, fee or other remuneration that
purchases Notes from it during the restricted period a confirmation or notice to
substantially the following effect:
"The Securities covered hereby have not been registered under
the United States Securities Act of 1933 (the "SECURITIES
ACT") and may not be offered and sold within the United
States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons
(i) as part of the distribution of the Securities at any time
or (ii) otherwise until 40 days after the later of the
commencement of the offering and the closing date of the
offering, except in either case in accordance with Regulation
S (or Rule 144A if available) under the Securities Act. Terms
used above have the meaning given to them in Regulation S."
11
12
Terms used in this Section 8(b) and not defined in this Agreement have
the meanings given to them in Regulation S.
(c) The Initial Purchasers represent and warrant that
the source of funds being used by it to acquire the Securities does not include
the assets of any "employee benefit plan" (within the meaning of Section 3 of
the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, including the
regulations and published interpretations thereunder ("ERISA")) or any "plan"
(within the meaning of Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended, including the regulations and published interpretations thereunder (the
"Code")).
9. Indemnification and Contribution.
(a) The Issuers, jointly and severally, will indemnify
and hold harmless the Initial Purchasers and each person or persons who control
the Initial Purchasers within the meaning of the Act or Exchange Act against any
losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or several, to which the Initial
Purchasers may become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such
losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out
of or are based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement
thereto, or arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to
state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, and will reimburse the Initial Purchasers and any control person for
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Initial Purchasers or
such control person in connection with investigating or defending any such
action or claim as such expenses are incurred; provided, however, that the
Issuers shall not be liable in any such case (and shall be entitled to
reimbursement of advanced expenses, if applicable) to the extent that any such
loss, claim, damage or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in
the Offering Circular or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and
in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Initial
Purchasers expressly for use therein.
(b) The Initial Purchasers will indemnify and hold
harmless each of the Issuers, their respective directors, officers and each
person, if any, who controls any Issuer within the meaning of the Act or
Exchange Act against any losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which any of
the Issuers or their respective directors, officers or controlling persons may
become subject, under the Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based
upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact
contained in the Offering Circular, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or
arise out of or are based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein
a material fact or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, in
each case to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the
Offering Circular or any such amendment or supplement in reliance upon and in
conformity with written information furnished to the Company by the Initial
Purchasers expressly for use therein; and will reimburse the Issuers or any such
director, officer or control person for any legal or other expenses reasonably
incurred by such Issuer or director, officer or control person in connection
with investigating or defending any such action or claim as such expenses are
incurred.
(c) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action,
such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made
against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have to
any indemnified party otherwise than under such subsection. In case any such
action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the
indemnifying
12
13
party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to
participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any
other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with
counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the
consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and,
after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its
election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be
liable to such indemnified party under such subsection for any legal expenses of
other counsel or any other expenses, in each case subsequently incurred by such
indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation. No indemnifying party shall, without the written consent
of the indemnified party, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to
the entry of any judgment with respect to, any pending or threatened action or
claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought
hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party
to such action or claim) unless such settlement, compromise or judgment (i)
includes an unconditional release of the indemnified party from all liability
arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to,
or an admission of, fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of
any indemnified party.
(d) If the indemnification provided for in this
Section 9 is unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified
party under subsection (a) or (b) above in respect of any losses, claims,
damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then
each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or
actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative benefits received by the Issuers on the one hand and the Initial
Purchasers on the other from the offering of the Securities. If, however, the
allocation provided by the immediately preceding sentence is not permitted by
applicable law or if the indemnified party failed to give the notice required
under subsection (c) above, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to
such amount paid or payable by such indemnified party in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative
fault of the Issuers on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other in
connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses,
claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof), as well as any
other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the
Issuers on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other shall be deemed
to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering (before
deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting
discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers. The relative fault
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or
alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Issuers on the
one hand or the Initial Purchasers on the other and the parties' relative
intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent
such statement or omission. The Issuers and the Initial Purchasers agree that it
would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection (d)
were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation
which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above in
this subsection (d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) referred to above in this subsection (d) shall be deemed to include any
legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in
connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (d), the Initial Purchasers
shall not be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which
the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to
investors were offered to investors exceeds the amount of any damages which the
Initial Purchasers have otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue
or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission.
13
14
(e) The obligations of the Issuers under this Section
9 shall be in addition to any liability which the Issuers may otherwise have and
shall extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each person, if any, who
controls any Initial Purchasers within the meaning of the Act; and the
obligations of the Initial Purchasers under this Section 9 shall be in addition
to any liability which the Initial Purchasers may otherwise have and shall
extend, upon the same terms and conditions, to each officer and director of the
Issuers and to each person, if any, who controls any Issuer within the meaning
of the Act.
10. Survival Clause. The respective representations,
warranties, agreements, covenants, indemnities and other statements of the
Issuers, their respective officers and the Initial Purchasers set forth in this
Agreement or made by or on behalf of it pursuant to this Agreement shall remain
in full force and effect, regardless of (a) any investigation made by or on
behalf of the Issuers, any of their respective officers or directors, the
Initial Purchasers or any controlling person referred to in Section 9 hereof and
(b) delivery of and payment for the Securities. The respective agreements,
covenants, indemnities and other statements set forth in Sections 6 and 9 shall
remain in full force and effect, regardless of any termination or cancellation
of this Agreement.
11. Termination. (a) This Agreement may be terminated in
the sole discretion of the Initial Purchasers by notice to the Issuers given on
or prior to the Closing Date in the event that the Issuers shall have failed,
refused or been unable to perform all obligations and satisfy all conditions on
their part to be performed or satisfied hereunder at or prior thereto or, if at
or prior to the Closing Date:
(i) A downgrading shall have occurred in the rating
accorded the Company's debt securities by any "nationally
recognized statistical rating organization," as that term is
defined by the Commission for purposes of Rule 436(g)(2) under
the Act, and no such organization shall have publicly
announced that it has under surveillance or review, with
possible negative implications, its rating of any of the
Company's debt securities;
(ii) A suspension or material limitation in trading in
securities generally on the New York Stock Exchange, the
American Stock Exchange or on the NASDAQ Stock Market's
National Market;
(iii)A suspension or material limitation in trading in
the Chancellor Media Corporation's Common Stock on the NASDAQ
Stock Market's National Market;
(iv) A general moratorium on commercial banking
activities declared by either Federal or New York or Texas
state authorities; or
(v) the outbreak or escalation of hostilities
involving the United States or the declaration by the United
States of a national emergency or war, if the effect of any
such event specified in this clause (v) in the judgment of the
Initial Purchasers makes it impracticable or inadvisable to
proceed with the offering or the delivery of the Securities on
the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Offering
Circular.
(b) Termination of this Agreement pursuant to this
Section 11 shall be without liability of any party to any other party except as
provided in Section 10 hereof.
