----------------
Reference is hereby made to (i) the Reducing Revolving Credit Agreement
dated as of June 28, 1996, as amended by a First Amendment dated as of November

"Borrower"), Fleet National Bank (the "Administrative Agent"), Bank of America,

Trust Company of New York and the Banks signatory thereto, (ii) the Club Trust
Reducing Revolving Credit Agreement dated as of June 28, 1996, as amended by a
First Amendment dated as of November 7, 1996 (the "Club Trust Credit Agreement")
among Major League Baseball Trust (the "MLB Trust"), Fleet National Bank (the

parties now desire to amend the MLB Credit Agreement, the Club Trust Credit
Agreement and the MLB Pledge and Security Agreement as set forth in this Second
Amendment and hereby agree as follows:
I. DEFINITIONS.
------------
Capitalized terms used herein which are not otherwise defined herein and
which are defined in Annex A to the MLB Credit Agreement have the same meanings
herein as therein.
II. BACKGROUND.
-----------
A Collective Bargaining Agreement with a Collective Bargaining Agreement
Effective Date as of March 13, 1997 has been executed and delivered to the
Administrative Agent. The Borrower has requested that the LIBO Rate spread
pricing be reduced, that the scheduled reductions of the Maximum Available
Amount be modified and that funds be permitted to be distributed by each Club
Trust to its related Participating Club during each fiscal year prior to the
accumulation in the Debt Service Account of sufficient funds to pay all
scheduled payments of principal, periodic interest and fees for such fiscal
year. The Banks are willing to permit such modifications subject to the terms
and conditions of this Second Amendment. In addition, the Indians Club Trust has
requested that it be permitted to change its election under the Club Trust
Credit Agreement from Option A to Option B and to increase its Maximum Available
Amount under its Club Trust Sub-Facility to $35,500,000. The Borrower has
correspondingly requested that the Total Commitment be increased to $305,000,000
and that certain Banks increase their respective Commitments. The Banks and the
MLB Trust are willing to permit
2
such increases subject to the terms and conditions of this Second Amendment.

Closing Date; PROVIDED however, that with respect to each
3
4
Participating Club, aggregate annual payments of such Participating Club's
Pro Rata share of Commissioner Expenses made by the Commissioner on behalf
of such Participating Club out of the Central Fund Custody Account shall be
limited to (i) $1,600,000 in 1996, and (ii) an aggregate annual amount in
each succeeding year equal to the sum of (x) the prior year's maximum
amount, plus (y) the product of the amount of any increase in the Consumer
Price Index (expressed as a percentage) multiplied times the prior year's
maximum amount, plus (z) the product of five percent (5%) multiplied times
the prior year's maximum amount; PROVIDED, further, that each Participating
Club will remain materially liable for its share of any Commissioner
Expenses in any year which exceed such permitted payments; and PROVIDED,
further, that in 1997, in addition to the amounts set forth above, the
Commissioner will be permitted, on a one-time non-recurring basis, to

revenue sharing expenses and (B) up to $12,000,000 in payments to a

(ii) Annex A to the MLB Credit Agreement is hereby further amended by
adding thereto in the proper alphabetical order the following definitions:
""DEBT SERVICE AND DISTRIBUTION SCHEDULE" means a schedule prepared by
the Commissioner and promptly approved by the Administrative Agent in its
reasonable discretion for each calendar year setting forth in reasonable
detail with respect to each distribution to be made in such fiscal year
from the Central Fund, MLB Properties and Expansion Fees into the
Collection Account for the account of each Club Trust (a) the proposed
amounts to be transferred into the Debt Service Account in respect of
scheduled payments of principal, interest, fees and expenses due from such
Club Trust to the MLB Trust and collectively from the Borrower to the Banks
and (b) the proposed amounts to be transferred into the Distribution
Account for distribution to such Club Trust's related Participating Club;
PROVIDED, that such schedule shall provide at a minimum that there shall be
transferred into the Debt Service Account from each distribution sufficient
amounts to maintain (after giving effect to amounts then on deposit in the
Debt Service Account and scheduled payments of principal, interest, fees
and expenses prior to the next Distribution Date) (i) an amount equal to at
least one fiscal quarter of projected interest for each Club Trust based on
its then prevailing interest rate plus 2% (or if such Club Trust has
capped its interest rate with an Agent or selected an Interest Period
4
5
which equals or exceeds the applicable period from the applicable
distribution date to the next distribution date, then based on its capped
rate or LIBO Rate plus the applicable margin), and (ii) amounts in respect
of scheduled payments of principal and payments of fees and expenses by
such Club Trust during such year sufficient in the reasonable judgment of
the Administrative Agent to permit such Club Trust and the Borrower to make
such payments in full in a timely manner; PROVIDED, further, that upon the
submission of a proposed version of such schedule by the Commissioner to
the Administrative Agent on or before December 1 of each year in respect of
the immediately succeeding calendar year in accordance with Section 5.01(f)
of the MLB Credit Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall reasonably
promptly either approve the proposed schedule in its reasonable discretion
or modify it in consultation with the Commissioner until it is acceptable
to the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion; and PROVIDED,
further, that in the event that, due to changed circumstances in any
calendar year, the Commissioner determines that a material change will be
required to the schedule for such calendar year, such change shall require
the written approval of three of the Agent Banks including the
Administrative Agent."
"DISTRIBUTION ACCOUNT PAYMENT DIRECTIVE" means a payment directive
executed by the MLB Trust and each Club Trust's related Participating Club
directing the Administrative Agent to transfer all amounts in a Club
Trust's allocable portion of the Distribution Account directly to such Club
Trust's Participating Club rather than 90% to such Participating Club and
10% to the MLB Trust for the account of such Participating Club.
"DISTRIBUTION INTERRUPTION EVENT" means (i) an Event of Default or
Club Trust Event of Default, (ii) a Business Interruption Event, (iii) the
payment of any distribution from the Commissioner to the Collection Account
which is materially less in amount or more than ten (10) days later than
the corresponding amount or date set forth in the Debt Service and
Distribution Schedule for such calendar year, or (iv) if at any time, the
cash balance (including cash equivalents and short-term investments) in the

case of a Club Trust Event of Default, such term shall only apply to the
affected Club Trust or Club Trusts.

(H) AMENDMENT TO SECTION 7(c) OF THE MLB PLEDGE AND SECURITY AGREEMENT.
Section 7(c) of the MLB Pledge and Security Agreement is hereby amended by
deleting the provision in its entirety and substituting therefor the following:
"(c) WITHDRAWALS AND TRANSFERS. The MLB Trust (on its own behalf and on
behalf of the Club Trusts) hereby appoints the Administrative Agent the true and
lawful attorney of the MLB Trust and the Club Trusts, with full power of
substitution, for the purpose of making any withdrawal or ordering any transfer
of deposited funds from the Collection Account and the Debt Service Account,
which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.
(i) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(d) of the MLB Credit
Agreement, at such times and in such amounts as are specified below, the
Administrative Agent shall withdraw or transfer amounts on deposit in the
Collection Account in the following priority:
(A) on each Distribution Date and any other date on which amounts are
deposited in or shall be on deposit in the Collection Account the Administrative
Agent shall deposit in the Debt Service Account such amounts, without
duplication, as are required or necessary (I) to make payments of principal and
interest under the MLB Credit Agreement or the Club Trust Credit Agreement then
due and owing, (II) to make unscheduled payments of principal in connection with
any Prepayment Event (including any voluntary principal prepayment by a Club
Trust and any required principal payment in connection with any Club Trust Event
of Default), Event of Default or Club Trust Event of Default, (III) to pay the
fees and expenses of the Banks and the Administrative Agent under this
Agreement, the Club Trust Pledge and Security Agreement, the MLB Credit
Agreement and the Club Trust Credit Agreement or any related agreement
(including the Club Trust Administration Fee Letter, and without duplication,
the MLB Trust Administration Fee Letter) then due and owing, (IV) PROVIDED that
no Distribution Interruption Event has occurred and is continuing, to comply
with the Debt Service and Distribution Schedule with respect to such
distribution and cover payments of principal, interest, fees and expenses under
the MLB Credit Agreement or the Club Trust Credit Agreement, (V) upon the
occurrence of a Distribution Interruption Event until the written approval of a
revised Debt Service and Distribution Schedule by three of the Agent Banks
including the Administrative Agent, to
6
7
cover payments of interest under the MLB Credit Agreement or the Club Trust
Credit Agreement that will be due and owing on or before the next Distribution
Date at a rate per annum equal to 2% per annum above the rate per annum
required to be paid on Borrowings under the MLB Credit Agreement or Loans under
the Club Trust Credit Agreement on such date; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that with
respect to any Borrowing (or portion thereof) which has been used to make Loans
(or portions thereof) to a Club Trust that has entered into an interest cap
agreement with an Agent Bank which extends through the next Distribution Date or
has selected an Interest Period for a LIBO Rate Portion which extends through
the next Distribution Date, interest on such amount will be computed at the
maximum interest rate provided for in such agreement or at the LIBO Rate (plus
the applicable margin) then in effect, as applicable, (VI) upon the occurrence
of a Distribution Interruption Event, until the written approval of a revised
Debt Service and Distribution Schedule by three of the Agent Banks including the
Administrative Agent, to cover principal payments or reductions that will be due
and owing on or before December 15 of such year (or, in the case of the year
2000, to cover principal payments or reductions that will be due and owing on or
before the Final Payment Date) and (VII) to pay any other amount that may be
payable to the Banks or the Administrative Agent as a Secured Obligation
(including amounts payable with respect to any financial hedge with respect to
any Club Trust's obligations to the MLB Trust) that is then due and owing;
(B) on each Distribution Date (subject to the availability of funds
therefor and after giving effect to any transfers therefrom on such date or any
previous date pursuant to (A) above), the Administrative Agent shall credit to
each Club Trust's Distribution Account, from amounts on deposit in the
Collection Account attributable to such Club Trust, a per Club Trust amount
equal to either the balance in the Collection Account attributable to such Club
Trust or such lesser amount as designated in the Debt Service and Distribution
Schedule or as otherwise designated in writing on such date by the Commissioner
or the Chief Operating Officer of MLB Properties, as the case may be, which
amount is intended generally to equal the amount distributed to each of the
non-Participating Clubs on such Distribution Date (before giving effect to any
deposits to the Debt Service Account therefrom); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that the
Administrative Agent shall be entitled to withhold from the amount of any such
distribution and deposit to the Debt Service Account any amounts it would have
been permitted to deposit to the Debt Service Account pursuant to (A) above;
PROVIDED, FURTHER, that upon the occurrence of a Distribution Interruption
Event, the Administrative Agent shall retain all amounts that would otherwise
have been credited to each Club Trust's Distribution Account in accordance with
this paragraph (B) in the Collection Account for application, if needed, as set
forth in
7
8
paragraph (A) above until (w) in the case of an Event of Default or Club Trust
Event of Default, such Event of Default or Club Trust Event of Default is either
cured or waived in accordance with the provisions of the MLB Credit Agreement or
Club Trust Credit Agreement, as applicable, (x) in the case of a Business
Interruption Event, the earlier of the termination of the strike or other labor
dispute which gave rise to the Business Interruption Event or the resumption of
games involving players of Major League Baseball and not replacement players,
(y) in the case of the payment of any distribution from the Commissioner to the
Collection Account which is materially less in amount or more than ten (10) days
later than the corresponding amount or date set forth in the Debt Service and
Distribution Schedule for such calendar year, amounts become available in the
Collection Account under the applicable provisions of Section 7(c)(i)(A) and (z)
in the case of a cash balance (including cash equivalents and short-term
investments) of less than $5,000,000 in the Central Fund Custody Account, such
cash balance is (including cash equivalents and short-term investments) restored
to at least $5,000,000; and PROVIDED, further, that if any Club Trust has
directed the Administrative Agent in writing to prepay scheduled payments of
principal owed by such Club Trust on an ongoing basis in minimum amounts of
$100,000 without penalty or premium (except LIBO breakage fees) from amounts
deposited in the Collection Account attributable to such Club Trust which would
otherwise be available for transfer to such Club Trust's Distribution Account,
the Administrative Agent shall instead transfer such amounts to the Debt Service
Account and apply such amounts to prepay such Club Trust's and the Borrower's
scheduled payments of principal during such calendar year.
(ii) Subject to the restrictions on cross-collateralization set forth in
the Transaction Documents (including the provisions of Section 2.12(d) of the
MLB Credit Agreement), on any date on which any amounts are due to the Banks
hereunder or under the MLB Credit Agreement (including in connection with any
voluntary or required payment or prepayment of principal), the Administrative
Agent shall withdraw such amounts from the Debt Service Account and distribute
such amounts ratably to the Banks in the priority set forth in (iii) below. In
connection with such distribution, the Administrative Agent shall, as
contemplated in Section 2.12 of the MLB Credit Agreement, determine the specific
Club Trusts with respect to which such distribution was made and the amount paid
to each Bank with respect to each such Club Trust. Amounts distributed to the
Banks with respect to a specific Club Trust shall also constitute payment of
such Club Trust's obligation to the MLB Trust under the Club Trust Credit
Agreement.
(iii) Amounts distributed from the Debt Service Account to the Banks, with
respect to each Club Trust and the related Club
8
9
Trust Related Advances and Loans, shall be applied in the following order to pay
(A) all fees owed to the Administrative Agent and the Banks (and/or including
fees payable with respect to any financial hedge), (B) all current interest due
(including amounts payable with respect to any financial hedge) and then any
past due interest, (C) all current scheduled principal payments or reductions
and then any past due principal payments or reductions, (D) all required
principal prepayments and (E) all voluntary principal prepayments.
