AGREEMENT RELATING TO RELOCATION AND PURCHASE OF KDES-FM
This AGREEMENT RELATING TO RELOCATION AND PURCHASE OF KDES-FM (this “Agreement”) is dated November 9, 2007, by and between XXXXXXXX BROADCASTING OF CALIFORNIA LLC, a California limited liability company (“LBI”), and SPECTRUM SCAN-IDYLLWILD, LLC, a Kentucky limited liability company (“Spectrum Scan”). LBI and Spectrum Scan are sometimes referred to herein as the “Parties” and each as a “Party.”
This Agreement confirms the terms on which LBI and Spectrum Scan have agreed to proceed with respect to the proposed relocation and subsequent acquisition by LBI of FM broadcast station KDES-FM, Channel 284B, 104.7 MHz, currently licensed by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) to serve Palm Springs, California (such relocation and acquisition referred to herein as the “KDES Transactions”).
AGREEMENTS:
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and promises contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties agree as follows:
Section 1. DEFINITIONS
1.1 Terms Defined in this Section. The following terms, as used in this Agreement, have the meanings set forth in this Section:
“Asset Purchase Agreement” means that certain asset purchase agreement dated November 9, 2007 pursuant to which LBI or its affiliate(s) will acquire from R&R Radio Corporation certain assets including the license issued by the FCC to operate FM broadcast station KDES-FM for a purchase price of Ten Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($10,500,000).
“KDES Transactions” has the meaning set forth above in the second paragraph of this Agreement.
“R&R” means R&R Radio Corporation, a California corporation.
Section 2. RELOCATION AND PURCHASE OF KDES-FM
2.1 Cooperation in Connection with Asset Purchase Agreement. With Spectrum Scan’s assistance and cooperation, LBI, through an affiliate, is entering into the Asset Purchase Agreement.
2.2 Conditions to Asset Purchase Agreement. LBI’s agreement to purchase KDES-FM from R&R is subject to the satisfaction of a number of conditions specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement, including, but not limited to:
(a) FCC approval of the relocation of KDES-FM from Palm Springs, California to Redlands, California or another community reasonably satisfactory to LBI (the “KDES-FM Relocation”), and
(b) Grant of a construction permit for modification of the facilities of KDES-FM to specify operation on Channel 284A with a transmitter site co-located with that of FM station KRQB (formerly KWIE), San Jacinto, California (N 34° 02’ 13”, W 116° 58’ 07”) (the “KDES-FM Relocation CP”).
2.3 Conditions Dependant Upon Spectrum Scan. The parties acknowledge and agree that in order for the closing of the transactions contemplated in the Asset Purchase Agreement to occur, Spectrum Scan must cancel, surrender and terminate its option to purchase FM broadcast station KWXY-FM, Channel 253, 98.5 MHz, Cathedral City, California (the “Option”). The Option is an extremely valuable asset of Spectrum Scan, and Spectrum Scan would not be willing to cancel the Option (which cancellation will allow LBI to acquire KDES-FM from R&R) without LBI agreeing to make the payment to Spectrum Scan referenced in Section 2.5 below.
2.4 Spectrum Scan’s Financial Obligations. Spectrum Scan will be responsible for the payment of all costs associated with the provision of engineering plans, the submission of applications to the FCC, and any associated FCC filing fees relating to the KDES-FM Relocation and the KDES-FM Relocation CP.
2.5 Payment by LBI. Subject to and on the same day as the closing under the Asset Purchase Agreement, in consideration of Spectrum Scan’s cancellation, surrender or termination of the Option, LBI shall pay to Spectrum Scan the sum of Seven Million Dollars ($7,000,000). If the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement is not consummated, such sum shall not be payable to Spectrum Scan. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, in the event that (i) Spectrum Scan complies with all of its obligations under this Agreement, (ii) all of the conditions precedent to LBI’s obligation to consummate the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement are fulfilled prior to the expiration or earlier termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement in accordance with its terms, (iii) LBI enters into an amendment to the license agreement with Xxxxxxxxx Investments Co. dated April 11, 2000 which was assigned to LBI on September 21, 2007 to accommodate the co-location of the KDES-FM transmitter site with that of FM broadcast station KRQB (FM), and (iv) the necessary revision to the existing conditional use permit for such transmitter site to accommodate the KDES-FM relocation has been granted, but LBI fails to consummate the transaction contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement for any reason other than a material breach by R&R, then LBI shall pay to Spectrum Scan the sum of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000.00). Such payment shall be made ten (10) business days after the satisfaction or waiver of all the conditions set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement.
2.6 Notification Upon Amendment or Termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement. In the event the Asset Purchase Agreement is amended or terminated, LBI will promptly notify Spectrum Scan of all changes or the termination, as the case may be. LBI shall follow the notice procedures outlined in Section 3.2 of this Agreement.
