authority makes or proposes an allocation different from the Allocation

each other in good faith to contest such taxing authority's allocation (or
proposed allocation), provided, however, that, after consultation with the party
adversely affected by such allocation (or proposed allocation), another party
hereto may file such protective claims or returns but only as may be reasonably
required to reserve a claim which may be barred by the statute of limitations.

which it cannot obtain sufficient rights on reasonable terms. There are no
outstanding options, licenses, or agreements of any kind relating to the
foregoing, nor is Seller bound by or a party to any options, licenses or
agreements of any kind with respect to the patents, patent applications,
trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights, trade secrets, licenses,

Seller has violated or, by conducting its business as proposed, would violate
any of the patents, trademarks, service marks, trade names, copyrights or trade
proprietary rights of any other person or entity. To the knowledge of Seller,
none of its employees is obligated under any contract (including licenses,
covenants or commitments of any nature) or other agreement, or subject to any
judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative agency, that would
interfere with the use of his or her best efforts to promote the interests of
Seller or that would conflict with Seller's business as currently conducted.
Neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement nor the carrying on of
Seller's business by the employees of Seller nor the conduct of Seller's
business as currently conducted, will, to Seller's knowledge, conflict with or
result in a breach of the terms, conditions or provisions of, or constitute a
default under, any contract, covenant or instrument under which any of such
employees is now obligated.

default by Seller under, any provision of any of such agreements, and Seller has
not received any notice from, or given any notice to, any other party indicating
that Seller is in breach of or in default under any of such agreements. To the
knowledge of Seller, no other party to any of such agreements is in breach of or

similar payment in connection with any transaction contemplated hereby asserted
by any person on the basis of any act or statement made or alleged to have been

Shares for its own account for investment and not with a view to, or for sale or

covered by a registration statement filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "SECURITIES ACT"),
covering the Purchaser Shares or (ii) pursuant to an applicable exemption under
the Securities Act. In acquiring the Purchaser Shares, Seller is not offering or
selling, and will not offer or sell, for Purchaser in connection with any
distribution of the Purchaser Shares, and Seller does not have a participation
and will not participate in any such undertaking or in any underwriting of such
an undertaking except in compliance with applicable federal and state securities
laws.
Section 4.24. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION. Seller acknowledges that it or
its representatives have been furnished with substantially the same kind of
information regarding Purchaser and its business, assets, results of operation,
and financial condition as would be contained in a registration statement
prepared in connection with a public sale of the Purchaser Shares. Seller
further represents that it has had an opportunity to ask questions of and
receive answers from Purchaser regarding Purchaser and its business, assets,
results of operation and financial condition and the terms and conditions of the
issuance of the Purchaser Shares. The

of Purchaser in Article V, and shall not limit the disclosure requirements of
applicable federal and state securities laws.
Section 4.25. RESTRICTED SECURITIES. Seller understands that the

any applicable state securities laws, that the Purchaser Shares will be
characterized as "restricted securities" under federal securities laws, and that

or otherwise disposed of without registration under the Securities Act or an
exemption therefrom. In this connection, Seller represents that it is familiar
with Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act, as currently in effect, and
understands the resale limitations imposed thereby and by the Securities Act.
Stop transfer instructions may be issued to the transfer agent for securities of
Purchaser (or a notation may be made in the appropriate records of Purchaser) in
connection with the Purchaser Shares.

representations and warranties as of the date hereof, or if Seller becomes aware
of the occurrence after the date hereof of any fact or condition that would
(except as expressly contemplated by this Agreement) cause or constitute a
breach of any such representation or warranty had such representation or
warranty been made as of the time of occurrence or discovery of such fact or
condition. During the same period, Seller will promptly notify Purchaser of the
occurrence of any breach of any covenant of Seller in this Article VI or Article
VI or VII of the Bridge Loan Agreement or of the occurrence of any event that
may make the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3 impossible or unlikely.
During the same period, Purchaser will promptly notify Seller of the occurrence
of any breach of any covenant of Purchaser in this Article VI or the TBA or of
the occurrence of any event that may make the satisfaction of the conditions in
Section 3 impossible or unlikely.
Section 6.10. NO NEGOTIATION. Until such time, if any, as this
Agreement is terminated pursuant to Article VIII, Seller will not directly or
indirectly solicit, initiate, or encourage any inquiries or proposals from,
discuss or negotiate with, or provide any non-public information to any person
(other than Purchaser) relating to any transaction involving the sale of the
Assets, or any of the capital stock of Seller, or any merger, consolidation,
business combination, or similar transaction involving Seller.

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS INDEMNITY SHALL NOT BE THE SOLE REMEDY IN THE
CASE OF INTENTIONAL MISREPRESENTATIONS, FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS
NEGLIGENCE.
Section 7.03. INDEMNIFICATION BY PURCHASER. Subject to the limitations
set forth in Sections 7.01 and 7.04, Purchaser shall indemnify and hold Seller
and the officers, directors, employees, trustees, agents, permitted assigns,

(c) all reasonable costs and expenses (including, without limitation,
attorneys' fees, interest and penalties) incurred by Seller in connection with

THE PROVISIONS OF THIS INDEMNITY SHALL NOT BE THE SOLE REMEDY IN THE
CASE OF INTENTIONAL MISREPRESENTATIONS, FRAUD, WILLFUL MISCONDUCT OR GROSS
NEGLIGENCE.
Section 7.04. INDEMNIFICATION PROCEDURES. The obligations and
liabilities of each indemnifying party hereunder with respect to claims
resulting from the assertion of liability by the other party or indemnified
third parties shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a) The indemnified party shall give prompt written notice (which in no
event shall exceed 30 days from the date on which the indemnified party first
became aware of such claim or assertion) to the indemnifying party of any claim
which might give rise to a claim by the indemnified party against the
indemnifying party based on the indemnity agreements contained in Article VII
hereof, stating the nature and basis of said claims and the amounts thereof, to
the extent known. The failure to so notify, or any delay in so notifying, the
indemnifying party will not relieve the indemnifying party of its obligations
under this Article VII, except solely to the extent that the indemnifying party
can demonstrate that such failure actually and materially
24
25
prejudices the defense of the Action by the indemnifying party. Within 10 days
of delivery of such notice, the indemnifying party shall advise the indemnified
party (i) whether it disputes the claim for indemnification and (ii) whether the
indemnifying party desires at its sole cost and expense to defend such Action.
(b) In the event that the indemnifying party notifies the indemnified
party within the notice period specified in clause (a) of this Section 7.04 that
the indemnifying party does not dispute the indemnifying party's obligation to
indemnify hereunder and desires to defend the indemnified party against such
claim and, except as hereunder provided, the indemnifying party shall have the
right to defend by appropriate proceedings, which proceedings shall be promptly
settled or prosecuted by the indemnifying party to final conclusion; provided
that, unless the indemnified party otherwise agrees, the indemnifying party may
not compromise or settle any matter (in whole or in part) (i) without obtaining
a complete and unconditional release of the indemnified party, (ii) unless the
sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the
indemnifying party, and (iii) unless there is no finding or admission of any
violation of law or any violation of the rights of any other Person and no
effect on any claims that may be made against the indemnified party. If the
indemnifying party elects not to defend the indemnified party against such
claim, whether by failure of the indemnifying party to give the indemnified
party timely notice as provided above or otherwise, then the indemnified party
may assume the defense thereof, shall have the right to undertake the defense
of, compromise or settle such proceedings and the indemnifying party shall, upon
request of the indemnified party, pay to such indemnified party, in accordance
with the terms of this Article VII, the amount of Losses resulting from such
proceeding; provided, however, that such proceeding shall not be compromised or
settled without the written consent of the indemnifying party, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
indemnifying party's right to object to any proposed compromise or settlement
shall be conditioned upon such indemnifying party acknowledging to the
indemnified party that such indemnifying party shall be solely responsible (as
between the indemnifying party and the indemnified party) for all liabilities
and obligations arising from the matter proposed to be compromised or settled.
If any Action, suit or proceeding is brought against the indemnified party with
respect to which the indemnifying party may have liability under the indemnity
agreements contained in Article VII hereof, the Action, suit or proceeding
shall, upon the written acknowledgment by the indemnifying party that it is
obligated to indemnify under such indemnity agreement, be defended (including
all proceedings on appeal or for review which counsel for the indemnified party
shall deem appropriate) by the indemnifying party. The indemnified party shall
have the right to employ its own counsel in any such case, but the fees and
expenses of such counsel shall be at the indemnified party's own expense unless
(i) the employment of such counsel and the payment of such fees and expenses
both shall have been specifically authorized in writing by the indemnifying
party in connection with the defense of such Action, suit or proceeding, or (ii)
counsel to such indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded and
specifically notified the indemnifying party that there may be specific defenses
available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party or that such Action, suit or proceeding involves or could
have an effect upon matters beyond the scope of the indemnity agreements
contained in Article VII hereof, in any of which events the indemnifying party,
to the extent made necessary by such defenses, shall not have the right to
direct the defense of such Action, suit or proceeding on behalf of the
indemnified party. In the latter such case only that portion of such fees and
expenses of the indemnified
25
26
party's separate counsel reasonably related to matters covered by the indemnity
agreements contained in Article VII hereof shall be borne by the indemnifying
party. The indemnified party shall be kept fully informed of such action, suit
or proceeding at all stages thereof whether or not it is represented by separate
counsel.
(c) The defending party shall make available to the non-defending party
and its attorneys and accountants all books and records of the non-defending
party relating to such proceedings or litigation and the parties hereto agree to
render to each other such assistance as they may reasonably require of each
other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any such Action,
suit or proceeding.
(d) There shall be no indemnification recoverable against a party
otherwise obligated to provide indemnification therefor under this Article VII
(other than the payment of Taxes relating to the Straddle Period) until the
Losses by the party seeking such indemnification exceed $150,000 in the
aggregate (the "BASKET AMOUNT"), and once all such Losses exceed the Basket
Amount, such party shall only be obligated to the other party for Losses in
excess of the Basket Amount (other than the payment of Taxes relating to the
Straddle Period).
(e) Seller shall not be required to pay any amount in satisfaction of
the indemnification obligations of Seller pursuant to this Article VII in excess
of the Purchase Price received by Seller.
(f) A waiver of a condition to Closing hereunder shall not preclude the
waiving party from being indemnified hereunder.
Section 7.05. CERTAIN TAX MATTERS. For purposes of Section 2.03(b) and
7.02(b), Seller's allocable portion of Taxes with respect to a taxable period
which includes (but does not end on) the Closing Date (the "STRADDLE PERIOD")
shall be (x) in the case of any Taxes other than Taxes based upon or related to
income or receipts, an amount equal to the Tax for the entire period multiplied
by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the period for
which such Taxes are paid ending on the Closing Date and the denominator of
which is the number of days in the entire taxable period; and (y) in the case of
any Taxes based upon or related to income or receipts, the amount that would be
payable if the taxable period ended on the Closing Date. The party that has the
primary obligation to do so under applicable law shall file any Tax Return that
is required to be filed in respect of Taxes described in Section 7.02, and that
party shall pay the Taxes shown on such Tax Return and the other party shall
reimburse the filing party for its share of such Tax as determined under Section
7.02 by wire transfer of immediately available funds no later than ten days
after receipt of written notice that such Tax has been paid to the applicable
governmental body. For purposes of Taxes based upon or measured by net income
("INCOME TAXES"), Seller shall include the net income attributable to Seller,
the Station and the Assets in its income through the Closing Date and shall file
the appropriate Tax Returns. Subject to the provisions of Section 6.03, Seller
shall be responsible for the payment of all Taxes, including, without
limitation, Income Taxes imposed on Seller, if any, as a result of the transfer
of the Station and the Assets to Purchaser. Seller and Purchaser shall provide
each other with such cooperation and information as either of them reasonably
may request of the other with respect to Seller, the Station or the Assets in
filing any
26
27
Tax Return, amended return or claim for refund, determining a liability for
Taxes or a right to refund of Taxes or in conducting any audit or other
proceeding in respect of Taxes with respect to Seller, the Station or the
Assets. Such cooperation and information shall include, without limitation,
providing copies of all relevant portions of Tax Returns with respect to Seller,
together with accompanying schedules and related work papers, documents relating
to rulings or other determinations by taxing authorities and records concerning
the ownership and tax basis of property, which either party may possess. Each
party shall make its employees available on a mutually convenient basis to
provide explanation of any documents or information provided hereunder. The
party requesting assistance hereunder shall reimburse the other for any
reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred in providing any return, document or
other written information, and shall compensate the other for any reasonable
costs (excluding wages and salaries) of making employees available, upon receipt
of reasonable documentation of such costs. Each party shall retain all returns,
schedules and work papers and all material records or other documents relating
thereto, until the expiration of the statute of limitations (including
extensions) of the taxable years to which such returns and other documents
relate and, unless the relevant portions of such returns and other documents are
offered to the other party, until the final determination of any payments which
may be required in respect of such years under this Agreement. Any information
obtained under this Section 7.05 shall be kept confidential, except as may be
otherwise necessary in connection with the filing of any Tax Returns or claims
for refund or in conducting any audit or other proceeding and shall be used
solely for the purposes set forth in this Section 7.05.
ARTICLE VIII
TERMINATION
Section 8.01. TERMINATION. This Agreement may be terminated and the
transactions contemplated hereby abandoned at any time prior to the Closing in
the following manner:
(a) by mutual written consent of Seller and Purchaser; or
(b) by either Seller (following repayment of all amounts due to
Purchaser by any party under the Bridge Loan Agreement in accordance with the
terms thereof) or Purchaser if the Closing shall not have occurred on or before
June 1, 2001, unless such failure to close shall be due to a breach of this
Agreement by the party seeking to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this
clause (b); or
(c) by either Seller (following repayment of all amounts due to
Purchaser by any party under the Bridge Loan Agreement in accordance with the
terms thereof) or Purchaser if there shall be any Law that makes consummation of
the transactions contemplated hereby illegal or otherwise prohibited or a
Governmental Authority shall have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any
other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, and such order, decree,
ruling or other action shall have become final and nonappealable; or
(d) by Seller (following repayment of all amounts due to Purchaser by
any party under the Bridge Loan Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof),
if (i) any of the material representations and warranties of Purchaser contained
in this Agreement shall not be
27
28
true and correct in any material respect, when made or at any time prior to the
Closing as if made at and as of such time (except to the extent that any such
representation or warranty is made as of a specified date, in which case such
representation or warranty shall have been true and correct in all material
respects as of such specified date), in any respect which is material to
Purchaser or the ability of Purchaser to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby, or (ii) Purchaser shall have failed to fulfill in any
material respect any of its material obligations under this Agreement, which
failure is material to the obligations of Purchaser under this Agreement, and,
in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), such misrepresentation, breach of
warranty, or failure (provided it can be cured) has not been cured within 30
days after written notice thereof from Seller to Purchaser; provided that
Purchaser shall have no opportunity to cure its failure to timely pay the
Purchase Price; or
(e) by Purchaser, if (i) any of the material representations and
warranties of Seller contained in this Agreement shall not be true and correct
in any material respect, when made or at any time prior to the Closing as if
made at and as of such time (except to the extent that any such representation
or warranty is made as of a specified date, in which case such representation or
warranty shall have been true and correct in all material respects as of such
specified date), in any respect which is material to Seller or the ability of
Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby, or (ii) Seller shall
have failed to fulfill in any material respect any of its material obligations
under this Agreement, which failure is material to the obligations of Seller
under this Agreement, and, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii), such
misrepresentation, breach of warranty, or failure (provided it can be cured) has
not been cured within 30 days after written notice thereof from Purchaser to
Seller.
Section 8.02. CERTAIN REMEDIES NOT EXCLUSIVE. Except as specifically
set forth herein, the rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative
and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights and
remedies of any party based upon, arising out of or otherwise in respect of any
inaccuracy in or breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement
contained in this Agreement shall in no way be limited by the fact that the act,
omission, occurrence or other state of facts upon which any claim of any such
inaccuracy or breach is based may also be the subject matter of any other
representation, warranty, covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement (or
in any other agreement between the parties) as to which there is no inaccuracy
or breach.
Section 8.03. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. It is understood and agreed that
money damages would not be sufficient remedy for Seller's or Purchaser's failure
to perform under this Agreement, the Bridge Loan Agreement and the Ancillary
Documents, including Seller's failure to transfer, assign, convey, sell or
deliver the Assets to Purchaser and Purchaser's payment of the Purchase Price
and advancement of funds under the Bridge Loan Agreement in accordance with the
terms thereof, that Purchaser or Seller, as the case may be, would be
irreparably harmed by such a breach and that Purchaser and Seller shall be
entitled to specific performance and injunctive relief as remedies for any such
breach.
