The parties to this agreement (referred to as the "Venturers") are Century Communications Corp., a Texas corporation ("Century"), and ML Media Partners, L. P., a Delaware limited partnership ("ML Media").

RECITALS

A. Pursuant to an agreement dated July 2, 1986, Century and ML Media formed a joint venture (the "Joint Venture") for the purpose of acquiring at least ninety percent of the outstanding shares of common stock of Cable Television Company of Greater San ▇▇▇▇, Inc. (the "Company"), a California corporation that owned and operated a cable television system (the "Original System") in San ▇▇▇▇, Puerto Rico. The Joint Venture, in turn, organized as a wholly-owned subsidiary Century-ML Cable Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Subsidiary").

B. Pursuant to a Management Agreement and Joint Venture Agreement dated December 16, 1986 (the "1986 Agreement"), the Venturers provided for the continuance and governance of the Joint Venture, the contributions to the Joint Venture that were required for the acquisition by the Subsidiary of the Company's shares, the liquidation of the Company into the Subsidiary, and the ownership and operation of the Original System by the Subsidiary, including the appointment of Century as manager of the Original System.

C. On September 21, 1987, the Joint Venture acquired cable television systems serving Toa Alta, Catano and Toa Baja, Puerto Rico (together with the Original System, the "Systems") and amended the 1986 Agreement to appoint Century as the manager of those systems.

D. On February 15, 1989, Century and ML Media formed a joint venture known as Century-ML Radio Venture (the "Radio Venture") to acquire ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Broadcasting Corp. ("▇▇▇▇▇▇"), Fidelity Broadcasting Corp. ("FideLity") and Broadcasting & Background Systems Consultants, Corporation ("Broadcasting"), which were subsequently liquidated into the Radio Venture. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ owned radio station WUNO (AM), San ▇▇▇▇, Puerto Rico ("WUNO") and NotiUno News and distributed NotiUno News to the NotiUno News Network (the "News Network"), Fidelity owned radio station WFID (FM), Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico ("WFID"), and Broadcasting owned "Beautiful Music Services". WUNO and WFID are sometimes referred to as the "Stations" and WUNO, WFID, the News Network and Beautiful Music Services are sometimes referred to as the "Radio Businesses".

E. Pursuant to a Management Agreement and Joint Venture Agreement dated as of February l5, 1989 (the "Radio Venture Agreement"), the Venturers provided for the formation and governance of the Radio Venture, the contributions to the Radio Venture necessary for the acquisition of ▇▇▇▇▇▇, Fidelity and Broadcasting, and the ownership and operation of the Stations and Radio Businesses by the Radio Venture, including the appointment of ML Media as manager of the Stations and the Radio Businesses.

F. The Joint Venture and the Subsidiary are parties to separate Note Agreements, each dated as of December 1, 1992, which provided for the issuance and sale to certain purchasers of the Subsidiary's $100,000,000 9.47% Senior Secured Notes due November 30, 2002 (the "Note Agreements"), and a Second Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 1, 1992 with Citibank, N.A. as agent, and the banks named therein, which provided to the Subsidiary a revolving and term loan credit facility in a principal amount not to exceed $20,000,000 (the "Credit Facility"). Under the Note Agreements, the Credit Facility and certain related documents, the Radio Venture is required to transfer all of its assets

to the Joint Venture and the Joint Venture is required to assume all of the liabilities of the Radio Venture (the "Asset Transfer").

G. Contemporaneously with the execution of this agreement, the Venturers are causing the Asset Transfer to occur. The Venturers wish to provide in this agreement for the continuation of the Joint Venture and their respective rights and obligations under the 1986 Agreement, as amended, and the Radio Venture Agreement (each of which is being superseded by this agreement), including the continuation of the appointment of Century as manager of the Systems and of ML Media as manager of the Stations and Radio Businesses. Accordingly, it is the intention of the Venturers that (1) the assets and business of the Systems shall constitute the "Cable Division" of the Joint Venture and the Subsidiary, (ii) the assets and business of the Stations and Radio Businesses shall constitute the "Radio Division" of the Joint Venture, (iii) the Cable Division and the Radio Division (each of which is sometimes referred to as a "Division") shall be operated and managed as though each was a separate business under separate management, and (iv) Century shall be the manager of the Cable Division and ML Media shall be the manager of the Radio Division, with the rights and obligations as manager of those businesses that each possessed prior to the Asset Transfer and as are set forth herein.

It is therefore agreed as follows:

1. Continuation of Joint Venture; Interests in the Joint Venture. The Venturers shall continue the Joint Venture in accordance with the terms of this agreement. The name of the Joint Venture shall continue to be Century/ML Cable Venture and the Joint Venture from time to time may adopt and conduct business under such fictitious or trade names as the management board of the Joint Venture (created pursuant to section 7.1) determines appropriate. The Joint Venture shall have such places of business as the management board of the Joint Venture from time to time may establish. Interests in the Joint Venture shall be evidenced by a certificate in the form of Exhibit A, which shall bear a legend evidencing the restrictions on transfer in section 9.

2. Purpose of the Joint Venture. The purposes of the Joint Venture are to (a) own and operate, and subsequently dispose of, the Systems, (b) own and operate, and subsequently dispose of, the Stations and the Radio Businesses, and (c) conduct all activities incidental to the ownership and operation of the Systems, the Stations and the Radio Businesses. The Joint Venture may also engage in such other business activity as the management board may determine. Each of the Venturers shall cause the Joint Venture and the Subsidiary to perform any remaining obligations for which they may be responsible under the purchase agreements pursuant to which the assets of the Joint Venture, the Radio Venture or the Subsidiary were acquired. Each of the Venturers confirms its guaranty of any remaining obligations of the purchaser heretofore undertaken and to be undertaken under the purchase agreement relating to the acquisition of the Original System.

If ML Media or Century (the "Paying Party") pays (or has paid) more than fifty percent of any liability, cost or expense arising in connection with the acquisition of those assets, or in connection with the operations of the Systems, the Station or the Radio Businesses or the management of the Cable Division or the Radio Division, the other Venturer promptly shall reimburse the Paying Party for the excess, together with interest on the

excess at the rate of interest equal to the reference rate of Citibank, N.A., in effect from time to time, from the date the payment by the Paying Party was made.

4.2 No Other Mandatory Contributions; No Withdrawals. Except as provided in section 4.1, neither Venturer shall be required to make any capital contribution to the Joint Venture. Neither Venturer shall be entitled to withdraw any part of its capital contributions or to receive any distributions from the Joint Venture, except as expressly provided in this agreement.

4.3 No Liability for Capital Contributions.

(i) The term "Net Gross Revenues" means the gross revenues of the Systems from all sources less the aggregate amount paid by the Systems to suppliers of pay television product (e.g., HBO, Cinemax, Disney and Showtime).

(ii) Payments with respect to the management fee shall be made monthly in arrears, not more than 30 days after the end of each month, based on a determination by the chief financial officer of the Cable Division of the Net Gross Revenues for that month.

Copies of the determination by the chief financial officer of the Cable Division shall be prepared as soon as practicable after the end of each month and shall be delivered to and reviewed by the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary.

(iv) If the terms of any financing to which the Joint Venture or the Subsidiary is a party require that Century subordinate its rights to receive payment of any management fees, Century shall subordinate its right but only to the extent required by any lender and shall execute any instrument to evidence that subordination that the lender may reasonably request; Century shall not be required to subordinate such deferred management fees to any other distributions.

(v) The management fee shall not be payable, but shall be deferred, to the extent cash is not available to pay the fee or payment of the fee would result in a default under any credit agreement to which the Joint Venture or the Subsidiary is a party (including, but not limited to, the Note Agreements and the Credit Facility).

(vi) If in any year Century acts as manager of one or more of the Systems for less than a full year, the management fee for that year shall be determined by the chief financial officer of the Cable Division based on the Net Gross Revenues of the respective Systems for the period during which Century was manager of those Systems.

(c) The Joint Venture and the Subsidiary shall reimburse Century (pro rata in proportion to the number of subscribers served by their respective Systems) for out-of-pocket expenses for travel, hotels and meals for Century's personnel and for out-of-pocket fees and expenses to third parties (e.g., accountants and attorneys) and similar expenses, but Century shall bear all other expenses, including personnel and overhead costs incurred in performing its services as manager of the Systems.

(d) The designees of ML Media on the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary may elect to remove Century as manager of the Systems if Century breaches in any material respect any material provision of this agreement and the breach is not cured within 30 days after notice of breach from ML Media (or if not curable within such time then within a reasonable time thereafter) or if Tow sells his entire interest in Century.

(e) If the designees of ML Media on the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary elect to remove Century as manager of the Systems in accordance with section 7.3(d), the Joint Venture shall take all such action as may be necessary to cause the Joint Venture and the Subsidiary to effect the removal.

(f) Century shall use its best efforts to obtain the same rates for programming for the Systems as it obtains for other systems owned or managed by Century or an affiliate of Century, based on the number of subscribers of all cable systems owned or managed by Century or an affiliate of Century.

(g) The Joint Venture shall cause the Subsidiary to carry out the provisions of this section 7.3 to the extent that those provisions apply to the Subsidiary.

7.4 Participation of Management Board and Board of Directors of Subsidiary. The limited partnership agreement of ML Media requires that ML Media maintain "significant control" over any media property in which it has less than 100 percent interest, which would include the Systems. Accordingly, although Century, as the manager of the Systems, shall have responsibility for the day-to-day operations of the Systems, it is intended that the manager will consult with, and obtain the approval of, the designees of ML Media on the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary on all significant matters relating to the Systems. Without limiting the overall authority of the board of directors of the Subsidiary, the following actions may be taken after the date of this agreement only with the unanimous consent of the members of the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary:

ML Media may deliver a request under any one of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) or under both clauses (ii) and (iii).

(b) If ML Media makes a request under section 12(a)(i) or under both sections 12(a)(ii) and 12(a)(iii), the following shall apply:

(i) Century shall elect, by notice given to ML Media within 15 days after the notice from ML Media, to either (x) cause the Joint Venture and the Subsidiary to sell all of the assets and business of the Cable Division and the Radio Division for prices and at times consistent with prudent business practice (and approved by ML Media), or (y) purchase, or cause the Joint Venture to purchase (ML Media concurring in such purchase), all of ML Media's interest in the Joint Venture for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the interest, payable in cash at the closing of the purchase. If Century elects to sell all of the assets and business of the Cable Division and the Radio Division then ML Media may elect, by notice given to Century within 20 days after the notice to Century, to purchase (or designate a purchaser of) Century's interest in the Joint Venture for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the interest payable in cash at the closing. If ML Media does not so elect the management board of the Joint Venture and the board of directors of the Subsidiary shall diligently proceed to locate one or more purchasers and to consummate the sale of the assets and business of the Cable Division and the Radio Division as provided above.

(ii) If ML Media makes a request under Section 12(a)(ii) or section 12(a)(iii) (but not both) Century shall elect, by notice given to ML Media within 15 days after the notice from ML Media, to either (x) cause the Joint Venture and, in the case of a request under section 12(a)(ii), the Subsidiary to sell all of the assets and business of the Division to which the request relates for prices and at time consistent with prudent business practice (and approved by ML Media), or (y) purchase all of ML Media's interest in the Division to which the request relates for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the interest, payable in cash at the closing of the purchase. If Century elects to sell all of the assets and business of either the Cable Division or the Radio Division pursuant to this section 12(b)(ii), then ML Media may elect, by notice given to Century within 20 days after the notice to Century, to purchase (or designate a purchaser of) Century's interest in that Division for a purchase price equal to the fair market value of the interest payable in cash at the closing. If ML Media does not so elect the management board of the Joint Venture and, in the case of a request under section 12(a)(ii), the board of directors of the Subsidiary shall diligently proceed to locate one or more purchasers and to consummate the sale of the assets and business of the Cable Division or the Radio Division (as the case may be) as provided above.

(c) The fair market value of the interest of Century or ML Media in the Joint Venture or in the Cable Division or the Radio Division, as the case may be, shall be an amount equal to 50% of the fair market value, as of the date of the seller's notice, of (i) in the case of the Joint Venture, all of the assets and business of the Cable Division and the Radio Division (and of any cash and cash equivalents held by the Joint Venture) and (ii) in the case of the Cable Division or the Radio Division, all of the assets and business of that division (and of any cash and cash equivalents of that Division). The fair market value of all of the assets and business of the Cable Division or the Radio Division shall be an amount equal to the sum of the aggregate purchase price that an unrelated third party or parties would pay for all of the assets and business of that Division, other than cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, subject to all of the liabilities of that Division, plus the amount of cash and cash equivalents and the amount of accounts receivable (less a reserve for uncollectible accounts determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied), as determined by an appraiser selected by Century and ML Media within 15 days after Century's or ML Media's notice of election to purchase (or, if they are unable to agree upon the selection of an appraiser within that period, Century shall select one appraiser, ML Media shall select one appraiser and the two appraisers shall select a third appraiser and the fair market value shall be the arithmetic average of the fair market value determined by each of the three appraisers), except that any appraiser making a determination of the fair market value of ML Media's interest (but not Century's interest), in the Joint Venture, the Cable Division or the radio Division shall not include as a liability of the Joint Venture, the Cable Division or the Radio Division the amount of any Make-Whole Amount (as defined in the Note Agreements) or other prepayment premium or penalty that may be due under the Note Agreements or any of the documents delivered in connection with the Note Agreements. The Joint Venture shall instruct the appraiser or appraisers to determine the fair market value within 30 days. The Joint Venture shall bear the fees and expenses of the appraiser or appraisers.

(d) If the interest of a Venturer in the Joint Venture or either Division is to be purchased pursuant to this section 12 by the other Venturer the closing of the purchase shall be held on a date specified by the purchaser (not later than 30 days after receipt of the appraisal and after obtaining all necessary final regulatory approvals, including final approval by the FCC and, in the case of the Cable Division, the Puerto Rico Public Service Commission). At the closing, the seller shall assign its interest in the Joint Venture or the applicable Division to the purchaser, its designee or the Joint Venture, as the case may be, and the purchaser shall pay the amount determined by the appraiser, in cash. In addition to the foregoing, if the interest of a Venturer in only one Division is being sold at the closing, the purchaser shall agree to indemnify and hold

harmless the seller against all liabilities relating to or arising out of that Division and the parties shall amend the allocation and distribution provisions of this agreement to provide the purchaser with all income, gain and loss and all cash distributions arising from or relating to the operations of that Division.

(e) Upon the purchase by a Venturer of the interest of the other Venturer in the Joint Venture or the Division managed by the selling Venturer, the management by the selling Venturer of the Division for which it previously had management responsibility shall terminate.

(f) Upon the sale of the assets of the Cable Division or the Radio Division, the management board shall, after paying or making provision for all liabilities to creditors of the Joint Venture, distribute the cash and other assets of the Division between the Venturers in accordance with the provisions for distributions set forth in section 5.2 of this agreement.
