R E C I T A L S
---------------
A. SBG, through its wholly owned subsidiaries and affiliates,
owns or operates television and radio broadcast stations.
B. Employee is currently employed as a Vice President of SBG.
C. SBG desires to continue to employ Employee as a Vice President
of SBG, and Employee desires to accept such employment.
D. SBG and Employee desire to set forth the terms of employment
of Employee with SBG as a Vice President.
NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
1. DUTIES.
-------
1.1. DUTIES UPON EMPLOYMENT. Upon the terms and subject to the
other provisions of this Agreement, commencing on the date hereof (the
"Effective Date"), Employee will continue to be employed by SBG in
Baltimore, Maryland as a Vice President. As a Vice President, Employee
will:
(a) report to the SBG Board of Directors (the "Board"), and
the Chief Executive Officer of SBG (the "CEO"); and
(b) have such responsibilities and perform such duties as
may from time to time be established by the CEO, and/or the
Board.
1.2 PERFORMANCE OF SERVICES. While an employee of SBG, Employee agrees
to devote contribute his best efforts and time to the business of SBG and shall
render the services to the best of his ability on behalf of SBG. The Employee
shall comply with all laws, statutes, rules and regulations relating to his
services.
2. TERM.
-----
2.1. TERM. The term of Employee's employment as a Vice President of
SBG under this Agreement (the "Employment Term") will begin on the Effective
Date and continue until his employment is terminated in accordance with Section
4. As used in this Agreement, an "employment year" is a twelve (12) month
period, beginning on January 1 and ending on the next following December 31;
provided, however, that the first "employment year" shall begin on the Effective
Date and shall end on December 31,1998.
2.2. AT WILL EMPLOYMENT. Notwithstanding anything else in this
Agreement, including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 2.1. and 3
regarding the employment term and compensation and benefits of Employee,
respectively, the employment of Employee is not for a specified period of time,
and SBG may terminate the employment of Employee with or without Cause (as
defined below) at any time. There is not, nor will there be, unless in a writing
signed by all of the parties to this Agreement, any express or implied agreement
as to the continued employment of Employee.
3. COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS.
--------------------------
3.1 COMPENSATION. During each employment year, Employee shall be
entitled to the compensation determined by the SBG Compensation Committee (the
"Committee") after consulting with the CEO, which compensation may include the
right to earn either discretionary cash or stock bonuses (the "Discretionary
Bonuses") or incentive bonuses (the "Incentive Bonuses") (see Section 3.3 below
with respect to Incentive Bonuses). Discretionary and Incentive Bonuses are
sometimes collectively referred to herein as "Bonuses". All Bonuses shall be
determined and payable after all financial data necessary for the determination
of such is available to the Company. During the first year of employment
pursuant to this Agreement, the Employee shall be paid based upon an annual base
salary (the "Base Salary") of One Hundred Ninety Thousand Dollars ($190,000.00).
3.2 VACATION AND BENEFITS. During each twelve (12) month period during
the Employment Term, the Employee shall be entitled to a paid vacation of four
(4) weeks. The Employee shall schedule his vacation at such time or times as
shall be
approved by SBG, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
3.3 INCENTIVE BONUSES.
------------------
3.3.1 INCENTIVE BONUS. In addition to the Base Salary and
Discretionary Bonus, if any, the Employee shall be entitled to receive with
respect to each calendar year (or portion thereof) during the Employment Term,
an Incentive Bonus in the event that the Broadcast Cash Flow (the "BCF"), as
defined below, of SBG for such year exceeds the BCF of SBG for the immediately
preceding year. The Incentive Bonus shall be paid by granting the Employee stock
options (the "Stock Options") to acquire a certain number of Class A Common
Shares of SBG (the "Option Shares") pursuant to the SBG Long Term Incentive Plan
currently in effect and in accordance with the FORM OF XXXXXXXX BROADCAST GROUP,
INC. 1996 LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT SPECIAL
PERFORMANCE OPTION (the "Stock Option Agreement") attached hereto as Schedule
3.3.1. BCF is defined below in Section 3.3.3. The percentage increase (the
"Percentage Increase") in BCF which is necessary for the Employee to earn an
Incentive Bonus, the number of Option Shares to be granted based upon the
Percentage Increase, and the exercise price (the "Exercise Price") of the Option
Shares appear in Exhibit A attached hereto.
3.3.2 AFTER ACQUIRED OR DISPOSED OF BROADCAST PROPERTIES.
---------------------------------------------------
If during any year after the Effective Date (including the year of
during which the Effective Date occurs), SBG, or any of its direct or indirect
subsidiaries or affiliates, shall acquire, program, or commence program services
for, one or more television or radio stations [including pursuant to any Local
Marketing Agreement Time Brokerage Agreement (as those terms are customarily
used or defined by the FCC or in the broadcast industry in general) or any
similar type services agreements], for the purposes of calculating the Incentive
Bonus for the year in which the acquisition has occurred, the BCF for the
immediately preceding year shall be increased to reflect such acquisition, or if
in any year SBG, of any of it direct or indirect subsidiaries or affiliates,
directly or indirectly disposes of, or shall cease to provide programming
services with respect to one or more television or radio stations, for the
purposes of calculating the Incentive Bonus with respect to the year in which
such disposition has occurred, the BCF of the immediately preceding year shall
be decreased to reflect such disposition, by an amount equal to the Average
Broadcast Flow (the "ABCF"), calculated as of the date of the acquisition or
disposition, of the television or radio station (or stations) so acquired or
disposed of, multiplied by a fraction, (a) the numerator of which is the number
of days remaining in such year following such acquisition or disposition and (b)
the denominator
of which is 365. ABCF is defined in Section 3.3.3 below.
3.3.3 DEFINITION OF BCF AND ABCF. As used in this Section 3.3, the
term BCF shall mean, for any period, operating income (from the ownership of, or
the providing of program services to, television or radio stations) plus (a)
non-cash expenses, including depreciation and amortization expense, programming
amortization expense, barter expense and deferred compensation expense, plus (b)
corporate expense (including any special bonuses paid to other executive
officers of SBG), less (c) film contract payments, cash payments on deferred
compensation and non-cash broadcast revenue, in each case as such items shall be
determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principals ("GAAP");
and ABCF shall mean the average annual BCF of a television or radio station for
the three (3) full calendar years of such station prior to its acquisition by
SBG or one of its direct or indirect subsidiaries or affiliates.
3.3.4 PAYM ENT. The Incentive Bonus shall be paid to the Employee as
soon as practicable, but in no event later than March 31 following the end of
each calendar year. The amount of Option Shares due under the Incentive Bonus
with respect to any period of less than an entire year shall be determined by
multiplying the Option Shares that would have been payable with respect to the
whole of such year (using actual results for such year and assuming that the
Agreement had been in effect the entire year) by a fraction, the numerator of
which is the number of days of such year and the denominator of which is 365.
4. EMPLOYMENT TERMINATION.
-----------------------
4.1. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT.
--------------------------
(a) The Employment Term will end, and the parties will not have

directly or indirectly by SBG or programmed by SBG, (vi) the continued
insubordination of Employee and/or Employee's repeated failure to
follow the reasonable directives of the CEO or the Board after written
notice of such insubordination or the failure to follow such
reasonable directives, or (vii) the repeated unsatisfactory
performance by Employee of Employee's job or duties hereunder as
determined by the CEO or the Board in his or their sole discretion
after written notice thereof.
4.2. TERMINATION PAYMENTS.
---------------------
(a) If Employee's employment with SBG terminates pursuant to
Sections 4.1(a)(1), 4.1(a)(2), 4.1(a)(3), or 4.1(a)(5), Employee (or
in the event of the death

SBG will pay to the same, all of the following:
(1) the salary payable to Employee through the Termination
Date; and
(2) the benefits, if any, set forth in the Long Term

(b) If Employee's employment with SBG terminates pursuant to Section
4.1(a)(4), Employee will be entitled to receive, and SBG will pay to
Employee, only the salary payable to Employee through the Termination Date

Incentive Plan); provided, however, that if Employee's employment

be entitled to the benefits, if any, set forth in the Long Term Incentive
Plan in accordance with the terms of Subsection (3) of this Section 4.2.

continuous employment with SBG or its predecessor regardless of whether the
employment has been pursuant to this Agreement or has been prior to this
Agreement.
(d) The termination payments (the "Termination Payments") described in
this Section 4 will be in lieu of any other termination or severance
payments required by any other SBG policy (whether existing previously or
currently or adopted in the future) or, to the fullest extent permissible
thereunder, or under applicable law (including unemployment compensation)
and the Termination Payments will constitute Employee's exclusive rights

its broadcast stations up for sale within one (1) year after
termination of Employee's employment hereunder, or (ii) Employee's
employment is terminated in connection with the
disposition of all or substantially all of such stations (whether by
sale of assets, equity, or otherwise), Employee agrees to be bound by,
and to execute such additional instruments as may be necessary or
desirable to evidence Employee's agreement to be bound by, the terms

consideration beyond that expressed in this Agreement, provided that
the purchase and sale agreement is negotiated in good faith with
customary terms and provisions, and the transaction contemplated
thereby is consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall Employee be bound by, or obligated to enter into, any
non-competition provisions referred to in this Section 5.2(d) which
extend beyond Twelve (12) months (including in the case of
terminations pursuant to Section 4.1(a)(5)), in each case from the

5.3. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. Employee acknowledges and agrees that this
Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 5 and 6) is
a condition of Employee's continued employment by SBG, Employee's continued
access to Confidential Information, Employee's continued eligibility to receive
the items referred to in Sections 3 (including, without limitation, Employee's
eligibility to participate in the Long Term Incentive Plan), Employee's
continued advancement at SBG, and Employee being eligible to receive other
special benefits at SBG; and further, that this Agreement is entered into, and
is reasonably necessary, to protect the Company Entities' previous and future
investment in Employee's training and development, and to protect the goodwill
and other business interests of the Company Entities.
6. REMEDIES.
---------
6.1. INJUNCTIVE RELIEF. The covenants and obligations contained in
Section 5 relate to matters which are of a special, unique, and extraordinary
character and a violation of any of the terms of such Section will cause
irreparable injury to the Company Entities, the amount of which will be
impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated.
Therefore, the Company Entities will be entitled to an injunction, restraining
order or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction
(subject to such terms and conditions that the court determines appropriate),
restraining any violation or threatened violation of any of such terms by
Employee and such other persons as the court orders. The parties acknowledge and
agree that judicial action, rather than arbitration, is appropriate with respect
to the enforcement of the provisions of Section 5. The forum for any litigation
hereunder shall be the Circuit Court of Baltimore County or the United States
District Court (Northern Division) sitting in Baltimore, Maryland.
6.2. CUMULATIVE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES. Rights and remedies provided by
Sections 5 and 6 are cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and
remedies any of the Company Entities may have at law or equity.
7. ABSENCE OF RESTRICTIONS. Employee warrants and represents that Employee
is not a party to or bound by any agreement, contract, or understanding, whether
of employment or otherwise, with any third person or entity which would in any
way restrict or prohibit Employee from undertaking or performing employment with
SBG in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
8. MISCELLANEOUS.
--------------
8.1. ATTORNEYS' FEES. In any action, litigation, or proceeding
(collectively, "Action") between the parties arising out of or in relation to
this Agreement, the prevailing party in the Action will be awarded, in addition
to any damages, injunctions, or other relief, and without regard to whether such
Action is prosecuted to final appeal, such party's costs and expenses, including
reasonable attorneys' fees.

acquires all or substantially all of its assets or into which it merges
regardless of whether it survives as the successor, and in such an event and so
long as his employment continues hereunder, Employee hereby consents and agrees
to be bound by any such assignment by SBG. Employee may not assign, transfer, or
delegate Employee's rights or obligations under this Agreement and any attempt
to do so is void. This Agreement is binding on and inures to the benefit of the

CONSTRUCTION, EFFECT, AND PERFORMANCE.)
8.7. SEVERABILITY. If the scope of any provision contained in this
Agreement is too broad to permit enforcement of such provision to its full
extent, then such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by
law, and Employee hereby consents that such scope may be reformed or modified
accordingly, and enforced as reformed or modified, in any proceeding brought to
enforce such provision. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, whenever
possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner
as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this
Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such
provision, to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, shall not be deemed
to be a part of this Agreement, and shall not invalidate the remainder of such
provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
8.8. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement, the Non-Qualified Stock Option
Agreement, and the Long Term Incentive Plan constitute the entire agreement, and
supersede all prior agreements and understandings, written or oral, among the

agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of any
waiver, amendment, modification, or discharge is sought.

6, 7 and 8.
8.11. TAXES. SBG may withhold from any payments under this Agreement
all applicable federal, state, city, or other taxes required by applicable law

Maryland in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration
Association then in effect, the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. ss. 1 et seq.,
and the Maryland Uniform Arbitration Act, and judgment upon the award rendered
by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The
expenses of the arbitration shall be borne by the non-prevailing party to the
arbitration, including, but not limited to, the cost of experts, evidence, and
legal counsel. Whenever any action is required to be taken under this Agreement
within a specified period of time and the taking of such action is materially
affected by a matter submitted to arbitration, such period shall automatically
be extended by the number of days, plus ten (10) that are taken for the
determination of that matter by the arbitrator(s). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the parties agree to use their best reasonable efforts to minimize
the costs and frequency of arbitration hereunder.
