II. LINE OF CREDIT.

Twenty-Five Million Dollars ($25,000,000.00). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, for so long as a Demand Note, made by Ticketmaster
Group, Inc. and payable to Lender or to its order, dated as of
January 29, 2001 (the "DEMAND NOTE"), is outstanding, the Credit
Limit shall be $25,000,000 less any amount outstanding on the
Demand Note, which amount is estimated to be $20,786,000 as of the
date hereof.
B. ADVANCES UNDER CREDIT LINE LOAN. Subject to the satisfaction of all
conditions precedent set forth in Section IV, the Lender agrees to
make advances to the Borrower under the Line of Credit up to the

termination of the Lender's commitment upon the occurrence of an Event
of Default.
Each advance under the Credit Line Loan shall be disbursed by wire
transfer to such account as the Borrower may designate in accordance
with Section VII(B).
Prior to the earlier of the Maturity Date or any earlier termination
of the Lender's commitment upon the occurrence of an Event of Default,
the Borrower may borrow, repay and re-borrow the Credit Line Loan,
provided that the Credit Line Loan shall never exceed the Credit
Limit.
Upon the earlier of the Maturity Date or termination of the Lender's
commitment upon the occurrence of an Event of Default as provided in
Section VI below the Credit Limit shall automatically and immediately
be reduced to zero.
C. EXCESS ADVANCES. If for any reason the aggregate outstanding principal
balance of the Credit Line Loan should at any time exceed the Credit
Limit (other than by reason of the capitalization of interest provided
for herein), the Borrower shall, without demand, not later than the
close of business on the second business day thereafter immediately
pay to the Lender a sum sufficient to reduce the outstanding principal
balance of the Credit Line Loan to the Credit Limit plus accrued and
unpaid interest.
D. MINIMUM AMOUNT OF CREDIT LINE ADVANCE. Each advance under the Credit
Line shall be in minimum amount of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars
($500,000.00) or the unadvanced balance of the Credit Limit, whichever
is less.
E. INTEREST ACCRUAL AND PAYMENT. Except as provided in Section II(H)
below, the outstanding principal balance of the Credit Line Loan shall
bear interest at the Average Rate, payable with respect to the Credit
Line Loan in arrears as provided in the Note.
2 of 11
F. DUE DATE. The entire outstanding principal balance of the Credit Line
Loan and all accrued interest shall become due and payable on the
Maturity Date, or, if earlier, the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder as provided in Section VI.
G. NOTE. The Credit Line Loan shall be evidenced by a separate promissory
note of the Borrower dated as of the date hereof (the "NOTE" attached
hereto as EXHIBIT A). Each reference to the Note shall include all
amendments thereto and any additional or supplementary notes executed
pursuant to this Agreement.
H. DEFAULT INTEREST; INTEREST CALCULATION. All principal and other
amounts outstanding and payable under the Note and not paid when due
shall bear interest from the date due until paid in full at a rate per
annum equal to 2% plus the Average Rate.

I. UNENFORCEABILITY. In the event any term or provision of this

K. MAXIMUM RATE OF INTEREST. All provisions of this Agreement are
expressly subject to the condition that in no event shall the
amount paid or agreed to be paid to the Lender hereunder and
deemed interest under applicable law exceed the maximum rate of
interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Credit Line Loan
allowed by applicable law (the "MAXIMUM ALLOWABLE RATE"), which
shall mean the law in effect on the date of this Agreement,
except that if there is a change in such law which results in a
higher Maximum Allowable Rate being applicable to this Agreement,
then this Agreement shall be governed by such amended law from
and after its effective date. In the event that fulfillment of
any provision of this Agreement results in the interest rate
hereunder being in excess of the Maximum Allowable Rate, the
obligation to be fulfilled shall automatically be reduced to
eliminate such excess. If, notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Lender receives an amount which under applicable law would cause
the interest rate set forth in this Agreement to exceed the
Maximum Allowable Rate, the portion thereof which would be
excessive shall automatically be applied to and deemed a
prepayment of the unpaid principal balance of the Credit Line
Loan and not a payment of interest.
L. JURISDICTION AND VENUE. The Borrower irrevocably consents that
any legal action or proceeding against it or any of its property
with respect to any matter arising under or relating to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be brought in any
court of the State, or any Federal Court of the United States of
America located in the State, as the Lender may elect, and by
execution and delivery of this Agreement the Borrower hereby
submits to and accepts with regard to any such action or
proceeding, for itself and in respect of its property, generally
and unconditionally, the jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts.
The Borrower further irrevocably consents to the service or
process in any such action or proceeding by the mailing of copies
thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the
Borrower at its address set forth herein. The foregoing, however,
shall not limit the Lender's rights to serve process in any other
manner permitted by law or to bring any legal action or
proceeding or to obtain execution of judgment in any other
jurisdiction. The Borrower irrevocably waives any objection which
it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any
suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and further irrevocably
waives any claim that the State is not a convenient forum for any
such suit, action or proceeding.
M. WAIVER OF PRESENTMENT; ETC. The Borrower expressly waives
presentment, notice of dishonor, protest and notice of
non-payment.
9 of 11
N. INTEGRATION. The Loan Documents supersede all prior agreements
between the parties with respect to the Credit Line Loan, whether
oral or written, including, without limitation, all
correspondence between counsel for the respective parties. The
Loan Documents constitute the entire agreements between the
parties with respect to the Credit Line Loan, and the rights,
duties, and obligations of the parties with respect thereto.
O. LENDER LIABILITY. The Lender shall not be liable for any loss
sustained by any party resulting from any action, omission, or
failure to act by the Lender, whether with respect to the
exercise or enforcement of the Lender's rights or remedies under
the Loan Documents, the Credit Line Loan, or otherwise, unless
such loss is caused by the actual willful misconduct of the
Lender conducted in bad faith. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE LENDER EVER
BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, ANY RIGHT OR
CLAIM THERETO BEING EXPRESSLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVED.
P. LENDER'S DECISIONAL STANDARDS. To the extent that applicable laws
require the Lender's actions or decisions under the Loan
Documents to be conducted in good faith, the term "good faith"
shall be defined (using a subjective standard) as honesty in fact
with regard to the conduct or transaction concerned based upon
the facts and circumstances actually known to the individual(s)
acting for the Lender, and such requirement may be satisfied by
reliance upon the advice of attorneys, accountants, appraisers,
architects, engineers, or other qualified professionals.
Q. DESCRIPTIVE HEADINGS; CONTEXT. The captions in this Agreement are
for convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit
any provision. Whenever the context requires, reference in this
Agreement to the neuter gender shall include the masculine and/or
