CONSIDERATION

3.1 Delivery of Consideration. In exchange for the Station
Assets, in addition to the assumption of the Assumed Liabilities, Buyer shall,
subject to Articles 11 and 12 hereof, at the Closing (as defined in Section
4.1) deliver to Seller the sum of (a) Ninety Three Million Seven Hundred and
Fifty Thousand ($93,750,000), plus (b) an amount (the "Account Receivable
Amount") equal to the accounts receivable of Seller as of 12:01 a.m. of the
Closing Date (the "Effective Time"), net of an allowance for uncollectible
accounts established in accordance with GAAP (as defined in Section 6.1.3
hereof) determined as of the Effective Time consistent with the Company's past
accounting practices and policies during the fiscal year ended December 31,
1996 in which Seller was audited by ▇▇▇▇▇ & Company (subject to adjustment as
set forth in this Agreement, the "Purchase Price") by wire transfer of
immediately available funds; provided that a portion of the Purchase Price
equal to $2,727,200 will be paid by Buyer into escrow pursuant to the terms of
the Indemnification and Escrow Agreement among Buyer, Seller and Key Trust
Company of Ohio, N.A., as escrow agent, attached hereto as Exhibit A (the
"Indemnification and Escrow Agreement"). The Accounts Receivable Amount paid
at Closing shall be based on a good faith estimate which is mutually agreed
upon by Buyer and Seller and shall be adjusted post-Closing, if necessary, in
conjunction with the final allocation and proration provided for in Section
3.3.2.

3.2 Allocation of Consideration. Buyer and Seller agree that the
Purchase Price (including the amount of the Assumed Liabilities) will be
allocated among the Station Assets prior to the Closing Date by mutual
agreement between Buyer and Seller, and Buyer and Seller agree to be bound by
such allocation. Such allocation may be adjusted if necessary as a result of
an adjustment pursuant to Section 3.3.2. Such allocation shall comply with
Section 1060 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and
Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder. Subject to the requirements of
applicable Tax law, all Tax Returns and reports including, without limitation,
Form 8594, filed by Buyer and Seller shall be prepared consistently with such
allocation and neither Buyer nor Seller shall take a position contrary thereto.
Any disputes regarding the allocation of the Purchase Price (including the
amount of the Assumed Liabilities) shall be referred for resolution to BIA, and
the fees and expenses of BIA shall be borne equally by Buyer and Seller.

17
3.3 Allocations and Prorations.

3.3.1 The operation of the Station and the income and
expenses attributable thereto through the Effective Time shall be for the
account of Seller and thereafter shall be for the account of Buyer. Expenses
for goods and services received both before and after the Effective Time,
utilities charges, ad valorem, real estate, property and other Taxes (other
than income Taxes, which shall be Seller's sole responsibility for all taxable
periods ending prior to and including the Effective Time, and those Taxes
arising from the sale and transfer of the Station Assets, which, in the case of
transfer and other similar Taxes, shall be paid as set forth in Section 13.2),
income and expenses under the Contracts (other than Trade Agreements), prepaid
expenses, music and other license fees (including any retroactive adjustments
thereof), and rents and similar prepaid and deferred items shall be prorated
between Seller and Buyer in accordance with the foregoing. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no proration shall be made with respect to any prepaid expense or
other deferred item unless Buyer will receive a benefit in respect of such
prepayment or deferral after the Effective Time. For purposes of this Section
3.3.1, ad valorem and other real estate Taxes shall be apportioned on the basis
of the Taxes assessed for the most recently-completed calendar year, with a
reapportionment as promptly as practicable after the Tax rates and real
property valuations for the calendar year in which the Closing occurs can be
ascertained. In addition, Buyer shall be entitled to a credit in this
proration process for the amount of any Taxes (or other governmental charges)
that are due and payable by Seller, but are being contested by Seller in good
faith in appropriate proceedings and are secured by Liens on the Station Assets
that have not been removed as of or before the Closing (but once such amounts
are finally determined, Buyer shall use such credit to remove such liens and
return to Seller the excess of (i) the amount of such credit minus (ii) the
amount of such Taxes or other governmental charges as finally determined, or
Seller shall pay to Buyer the deficiency, as appropriate).

3.3.2 Allocation and proration of the items set forth in
Subsection 3.3.1 above shall be made by Buyer and a statement thereof given to
Seller within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date. Seller shall give
written notice of any objection thereto within twenty (20) business days after
receipt of such statement, detailing the reason for such objection and stating
the amount of the proposed final allocation and proration and/or Account
Receivable Amount, as applicable. If a timely objection is made and the
parties cannot reach agreement within thirty (30) days after receipt of the
objection as to the amount of the final allocation and proration and/or Account
Receivable Amount, as applicable, the matter shall be referred to Ernst & Young
LLP (the "Independent Auditor") to resolve the matter, whose decision will be
final and binding on the parties, and whose fees and expenses shall be borne by
Buyer and Seller in accordance with the following: each party shall pay an
amount equal to the sum of all fees and expenses of the Independent Auditor on
a proportional basis taking

8
18
into account the amount of the net allocation and proration proposed by each of
Buyer and Seller and the amount of the final allocation and proration
determined by the Independent Auditor (for example, if Buyer proposed a payment
of $10 to Seller, Seller proposed a payment of $100, and the Independent
Auditor proposed a payment of $30, Buyer would pay 20/90ths of the Independent
Auditor's fees and Seller would pay 70/90ths of those fees based on the $90 in
dispute between the parties).

ARTICLE 4
CLOSING

4.1 Closing. The consummation of the transactions contemplated
herein (the "Closing") shall occur, except as otherwise mutually agreed upon by
Buyer and Seller (a) within ten (10) business days after the FCC Consents (as
hereinafter defined) to the assignment of the Station Licenses have become
Final Orders (as hereinafter defined) or (b) at such later date that all other
terms and conditions as set forth in Articles 11 and 12 have been satisfied, or
such other date as may be mutually agreed to by the parties ("Closing Date");
provided, however, that in no event shall the Closing occur prior to January 4,
1999. For purposes of the Agreement, "Final Order" means action by the FCC
consenting to the assignments contemplated by this Agreement which is not
reversed, stayed, enjoined, set aside, annulled or suspended, and with respect
to which action no timely request for stay, petition for rehearing, or
reconsideration, application for review or appeal is pending, and as to which
the time for filing any such request, petition or appeal or reconsideration by
the FCC on its own motion has expired. The Closing shall be held in the
offices of Benesch, Friedlander, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ & ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, LLP, 2300 BP America
Building, Cleveland, Ohio, or at such place as the parties hereto may agree.

ARTICLE 5
GOVERNMENTAL CONSENTS

5.1 FCC Consent. It is specifically understood and agreed by
Buyer and Seller that the Closing and the assignment of the Station Licenses
and the transfer of the Station Assets are expressly conditioned on and are
subject to the prior consent and approval of the FCC ("FCC Consents").

5.2 FCC Applications. Within ten (10) business days after the
execution of this Agreement or such earlier time as shall be agreed to by all

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER

6.1 Representations and Warranties of Seller. Seller represents
and warrants to the Buyer the following:

6.1.1 Organization, Good Standing, Etc. (a) Seller is a
corporation duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the
laws of the State of Ohio, has all requisite corporate power and authority to
own, lease and operate its properties and to carry on its business as now being
conducted and is duly qualified to do business in each jurisdiction in which
the nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties makes
such qualification necessary, other than in such jurisdictions where the
failure to so qualify has not had and would not reasonably be expected to have
a material adverse effect on the Station Assets, the Assumed Liabilities or the
business of the Station, or on Seller's ability to consummate the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement (a "Material Adverse Effect").

(b) Seller has all requisite corporate power and
authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Seller
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and
validly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Seller.
This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Seller and constitutes
the legal, valid and binding obligation of Seller, enforceable against it in
accordance with its terms.

6.1.2 Authority. Assuming the consents identified by this
Section 6.1.2 and Section 6.1.14 are obtained, neither the execution and
delivery of this Agreement nor the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby by Seller (i) violate, conflict with or result in any
breach of any provision of the articles of incorporation and code of
regulations of Seller, (ii) violate, conflict with or will result in a
violation or breach of, or constitute a default (with or without due notice or
lapse of time or both) under, or permit the termination of, or will result in
the acceleration of, or entitle any party to accelerate (whether as a result of
the sale of the Station Assets or otherwise) any obligation, or result in the
loss of any benefit, or give rise to the creation of any lien, charge, security
interest or encumbrance upon any of the properties or assets of Seller or any
of its subsidiaries under any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any
loan or credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture or deed of trust, or
any license, lease, agreement or other instrument or obligation to which any of
them are a party or by which they or any of their properties or assets may be
bound or affected, or (iii) violate any order, writ, judgment, injunction,
decree, statute,

10
20
rule or regulation, of any court, administrative agency or commission or other
governmental authority or instrumentality (a "Governmental Entity") applicable
to Seller or any of its respective properties or assets, except for those
violations that individually or in the aggregate could not reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No consent, approval, order or
authorization of, or registration, declaration or filing with, any Governmental
Entity is required by or with respect to Seller in connection with the
execution, and delivery of this Agreement by Seller or the consummation by
Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby, except for (i) the filing of a
premerger notification report under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust
Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"), and the expiration of the
applicable waiting period thereunder, and (ii) the FCC Consents.

in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles applied on a
consistent basis throughout the periods covered thereby ("GAAP") and present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations
and changes in cash flow (only as to the Station's financial statements for the
years ended December 31, 1996 and 1997 as described in clauses (a) and (b)
above) of the Seller as of such dates and for the periods then ended (subject
to the absence of notes and to normal, recurring adjustments that would not be
material in the aggregate), other than Trade Agreements.

6.1.4 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities. Except as set
forth on Schedule 6.1.4 hereto, there are no material liabilities of Seller of
any kind whatsoever with respect to the Station (whether absolute, accrued,
contingent or otherwise, and whether due or to become due) that are required to
be reflected on, or disclosed in the notes to, a consolidated balance sheet of
Seller prepared in accordance with GAAP, other than liabilities and obligations
(a) provided for or reserved against in the Seller's internally prepared

6.1.5 Compliance with Applicable Laws, FCC Matters. (a)
Except as permitted or contemplated hereby, the operations of the Station have
been and now are being conducted in compliance in all material respects with
the Station Licenses, each law, ordinance, regulation, judgment, decree,
injunction, rule or order of the FCC or any other Governmental Entity binding
on Seller, the Station or its respective properties or assets. No
investigation or review by any Governmental Entity with respect to Seller or
the Station is pending or, to the Seller's knowledge, is threatened. Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller has complied in all material
respects with the Communications Act of 1934, as amended (the "Communications
Act"), all rules, regulations and written policies of the FCC thereunder, all
obligations with respect to equal opportunity under applicable law and the
FCC's policy on exposure to radio frequency radiation applicable to the
Station. No renewal of any Station License would constitute a major
environmental action under the rules of the FCC. Access to the Station's
transmission facilities are restricted in accordance with the policies of the
FCC. In addition, Seller has duly and timely filed, or caused to be filed,
with the appropriate Governmental Entities all reports, statements, documents,
registrations, filings or submissions with respect to the operations of the
Station and the ownership thereof, including, without limitation, applications
for renewal of authority required by applicable law to be filed. All such
filings complied in all material respects with applicable laws when made and,
to the Seller's knowledge, no deficiencies have been asserted with respect to
any such filings. All of the material required by 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3526
to be kept in the public inspection files of the Station is in such files.
Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.1.5, Seller has no knowledge of any fact or
circumstance relating to Seller or the Station arising from noncompliance with
the Communications Act, or the rules, regulations or written policies of the
FCC in effect on the date of this Agreement that could reasonably be expected
to (i) disqualify the Seller from assigning the Station Licenses to the Buyer
or (ii) prevent or delay the consummation by them of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Schedule 1.1.1 lists (i) all licenses, permits and
other authorizations (including all STL licenses and construction permits)
issued to Seller by the FCC relating to the Station and held by it as of the
date of this Agreement and (ii) all licenses, permits, or authorizations issued
to Seller by any other Governmental Entities which are material to the
operations of the Station and held by it as of the date of this Agreement.
Such licenses, permits and authorizations, and all applications for
modification, extension or renewal thereof or for new licenses, permits,
permissions or authorizations that would be material to the operations of the
Station, are collectively referred to herein as the Station Licenses (as
further defined in Section 1.1.1), each of which is in full force and effect.
All towers and other structures used in the operation of the Station or located
on the Real Property are obstruction marked and lighted to the extent required
by, and in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Federal Aviation
Administration (the "FAA"), the Commission and

12
22
other federal, state and local authorities. Appropriate notifications to the
FAA and registrations with the FCC have been filed for such towers where
required. Except for proceedings affecting the radio broadcast industry
generally, there are no proceedings pending or, to Seller's knowledge,
threatened with respect to Seller's ownership or operation of the Station which
reasonably may be expected to result in the revocation, material adverse
modification, non-renewal or suspension of any of the Station Licenses, the
denial of any pending applications for Station Licenses, the issuance against
Seller of any cease and desist order, or the imposition of any administrative
actions by the FCC or any other Governmental Entity with respect to the Station
Licenses, or which reasonably may be expected to adversely affect the Station's
ability to operate as currently operated or Buyer's ability to obtain
assignment of the Station Licenses. With the exception of such temporary
reduced power operations as are necessary for routine maintenance, the Station
operates (i) in conformity with Station Licenses; and (ii) within the operating
power tolerances specified in 47 C.F.R. Section 73.1560(b). No other
broadcast station or radio communications facility is causing interference to
the Station's transmissions beyond that which is allowed by FCC rules and
regulations. Seller has all necessary authority to use the call signs set
forth on Schedule 1.1.1.

6.1.6 Litigation. Except as disclosed on Schedule 6.1.6,
there are no actions, suits, inquiries, judicial or administrative proceedings,
or arbitrations pending or, to the knowledge of Seller, threatened against
Seller or any of its respective properties or assets by or before any
arbitrator or Governmental Entity nor are there any investigations relating to
Seller or any of its respective properties or assets pending or, to the
knowledge of Seller, threatened by or before any arbitrator or Governmental
Entity that has had or that reasonably could be expected to have a Material
Adverse Effect. There are no material judgments, decrees, injunctions, or
orders of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against Seller or
any of its respective properties or assets. There is no action, suit, inquiry,
judicial or administrative proceeding pending or, to the knowledge of Seller,
threatened against Seller by a third party relating to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

6.1.7 Insurance. Schedule 6.1.7 sets forth a list of all
fire, liability and other forms of insurance and all fidelity bonds held by or
applicable to the Station setting forth in respect of each such policy the
policy name, policy number, carrier, term, type of coverage and annual premium,
each of which is in full force and effect on the date hereof, valid and
enforceable in accordance with its terms and in amounts which are adequate in
relation to the business and assets of Seller and the Station. To Seller's
knowledge, no event has occurred, including, without limitation, the failure by
Seller to give any notice or information, or the delivery of any inaccurate or
erroneous notice or information, which limits or impairs the

13
23
rights of Seller under any such insurance policies. Seller shall keep
comparable policies of insurance in effect for acts, omissions and events
occurring on or prior to the Closing Date.

6.1.8 Real Estate. (a) Seller has, and upon Closing,
Buyer will have, good and marketable title to the Owned Real Estate and, except
as set forth on Schedule 1.1.8, valid leaseholds in the Leased Real Estate,
free and clear of any Liens except for the Permitted Liens. The buildings (or
portions thereof), improvements and fixtures that are included in the Real
Estate are suitable for their intended use. Seller owns, or has a valid right
to use adequate routes of ingress and egress to, from and over all of the Real
Estate necessary to operate the Station. The Real Estate has adequate water
supply, sewage and waste disposal facilities, is connected to and served by
telephone, gas, electricity and other utility equipment facilities and services
necessary for the operation or use of the Real Estate. Such facilities and
services are adequate for the present use and operation of the Real Estate on a
fully occupied basis, and are installed and connected pursuant to valid
material permits and are in material compliance with all material governmental
regulations. To Seller's knowledge, no fact or condition exists which would
result in the termination or impairment of the furnishing of utility services
to the Real Estate. Schedule 1.1.7 lists the street address and/or legal
descriptions of the Owned Real Estate and Schedule 1.1.8 lists the street
addresses and/or legal descriptions of the Leased Real Estate. All real estate
Taxes, assessments and use charges pertaining to the Owned Real Estate that
have become due have been paid in full.

(b) The Real Estate, any improvements thereon, and the
use by Seller thereof, conform in all material respects, to (i) all applicable
laws, including but not limited to zoning requirements and the Americans With
Disabilities Act, and (ii) all restrictive covenants, if any. There are no
eminent domain proceedings pending, or to Seller's knowledge, threatened
against the Real Estate. All material improvements (i) have been constructed
in a good and workmanlike manner, free, in all material respects, from defects
in workmanship and material, and (ii) have been constructed, occupied,
maintained and operated in material compliance with all applicable laws,
insurance requirements, contracts, leases, permits, licenses, ordinances,
restrictions, building set-back lines, covenants, reservations, and easements,
and Seller has received no notice, written or verbal, claiming any material
violation of any of the same or requesting or requiring the performance of any
material repairs, alterations or other work in order to so comply. Other than
Permitted Liens, no improvement on any of the Real Estate encroaches upon any
adjacent real property of any other person or entity. The heating, air
conditioning, plumbing, ventilating, utility, sprinkler and other mechanical
and electrical systems, apparatus and appliances located on the Real Estate or
in the improvements are in good operating condition (normal wear and tear
excepted), free from material defects in workmanship and material.

14
24
6.1.9 Personal Property. Schedule 1.1.2 hereto contains a
list of all material tangible personal property and assets owned or held by
Seller and used in the conduct of the business and operations of the Station
(other than Real Estate, which is addressed in the foregoing Section 6.1.8).
Except as disclosed in Schedule 1.1.2, Seller owns and will have on the Closing
Date, and upon Closing Buyer will own and will have, good and marketable title
to all property referred to in the immediately preceding sentence and none of
such property is, or at the Closing will be, subject to any Liens other than
Permitted Liens. The tangible personal property and fixtures owned or used by
Seller necessary for the operation of the Station, are, in all material
respects, in good operating condition (subject to normal wear and tear) and are
sufficient to permit the conduct of the business of the Station in material
compliance with FCC rules and regulations. Seller owns or holds under valid
leases, all of the tangible personal property and fixtures necessary to conduct
the business of the Station as presently conducted. The Station Assets to be
transferred hereunder constitute all of the assets, rights and properties that
are required for the operation of the Station as they are now conducted.

are free and clear of all liens, pledges, claims, security interests,
restrictions, mortgages, tenancies and other possessory interests, conditional

way, covenants, restrictions, rights of first refusal, defects in title,

delinquent or the validity of which are being contested in good faith by
appropriate actions, (b) purchase money Liens arising in the ordinary course,
(c) Liens for Taxes not yet delinquent, (d) Liens securing indebtedness, all of

the properties or assets subject thereto in the usual and normal conduct of the
business of the Station, (f) Liens on leases arising from the provisions of
such leases, (g) zoning ordinances and (h) any other permitted exceptions
listed on Schedule 6.1.10 hereto (the Liens referred to in clauses (a) through

regulation or policy in order to obtain the FCC Consents. There are no
proceedings, complaints, notices of forfeiture, claims, or investigations

otherwise) any obligation, or result in the loss of any benefit, or give rise
to the creation of any lien, charge, security interest or encumbrance upon any
of the properties or assets of Buyer or any its subsidiaries under any of the

instrument or obligation to which any of them are a party or by which they or
any of their properties or assets may be bound or affected, or (c) violate any
order, writ, judgment, injunction, decree, statute, rule or regulation of any
Governmental Entity applicable to Buyer or any of its respective properties or
assets, except for those violations that individually or in the aggregate could
not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on Buyer's ability
to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

7.1.5 Litigation. There are no actions, suits, inquiries,

cure all such conditions. Seller shall notify Buyer within 30 days after its
receipt of Buyer's Studies if it determines that it is unable to cure such
conditions for $100,000 or less and chooses not to attempt to cure such
conditions, in which case Buyer may elect within 30 days after Buyer's receipt
of Seller's notice that it chooses not to attempt to cure

33
43

terminated in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, no party
shall have any liability to the other with respect to such termination. Either
party may extend the Closing by not more than 30 days if either reasonably
determines that any necessary remedial action can be completed during such
period.

ARTICLE 14
LIQUIDATED DAMAGES, SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE, LETTER OF CREDIT

14.1 Liquidated Damages. (a) If this Agreement is terminated by
Seller pursuant to Sections 15.1(b)(ii) or 15.1(g) the parties agree and
acknowledge that Seller will suffer damages that are not practicable to
ascertain. Accordingly, in such event, Seller shall be entitled to the sum of
$9,375,000 as liquidated damages (and not as a penalty), payable solely and
exclusively by drawing upon the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Letter of Credit and through the
delivery to Seller, of the sum of $4,687,500 via wire transfer of immediately
available funds. The parties agree that the foregoing liquidated damages are
reasonable considering all the circumstances existing as of the date hereof and
constitute the parties' good faith estimate of the actual damages reasonably
expected to result from the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections
15.1(b)(ii) or 15.1(g). In such event, Buyer shall immediately instruct the
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow Agent (as defined in Section 14.3) to deliver the Escrow
Money Letter of Credit to Seller to permit it to draw upon the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money
Letter of Credit and shall deliver to Seller, via wire transfer of immediately
available funds, the sum of

38
48
$4,687,500. Seller agrees that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the
right to draw upon the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Letter of Credit and to receive the
additional sum of $4,687,500 from Buyer as provided in this Section 14.1 shall
be its sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any damages whatsoever that
Seller may suffer or allege to suffer as a result of a termination pursuant to
Sections 15.1(b)(ii) or 15.1(g). Except for a termination pursuant to Sections
15.1(b)(ii) or 15.1(g) (for which the sole recourse of Seller shall be as
provided in this Section 14.1) or pursuant to Section 15.1(a) or 10.8 (for
which no party shall have any liability to the other), the termination of this
Agreement shall not relieve the parties for any liability or obligation
relating to their breaches of this Agreement occurring prior to such
termination.

14.2 Specific Performance. In addition to any other remedies which
Buyer may have at law or in equity, Seller hereby acknowledges that the Station
Assets are unique, and that the harm to Buyer resulting from a breach by Seller
of its obligations to sell the Station Assets to Buyer cannot be adequately
compensated by damages. Accordingly, Seller agrees that Buyer shall have the
right to have this Agreement specifically performed by Seller, provided that
Buyer is not in material breach of this Agreement and hereby agrees, in such
event, not to assert any objections to the imposition of the equitable remedy
of specific performance by any court of competent jurisdiction.

14.3 Letter of Credit.

14.3.1 Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement,
Buyer shall deposit an original, irrevocable letter of credit (the "▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Money Letter of Credit"), issued by The Toronto-Dominion Bank for the sum of
$4,687,500 with Key Trust Company of Ohio, N.A. (the "▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow
Agent") to be held in escrow in accordance with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow
Agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto.

14.3.2 The ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Letter of Credit shall be held by
the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow Agent in accordance with the terms of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇
Money Escrow Agreement. Subject to satisfaction of the conditions to the
Seller's obligations set forth in Article 12, at the Closing, Seller shall
instruct the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow Agent to release and return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money
Letter of Credit to Buyer for cancellation.

14.3.3 If this Agreement is terminated as provided in
Sections 15.1(b)(ii) or 15.1(g), Buyer shall instruct the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow
Agent to release the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Letter of Credit to Seller, all as provided
in Section 14.1. In all other events, Seller shall join in instructions to the
▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Escrow Agent to return the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Money Letter of Credit to
Buyer.

ARTICLE 15
TERMINATION RIGHTS

15.1 Termination. This Agreement may be terminated at any time
prior to Closing as follows:

(a) by the mutual consent of Buyer and Seller;

(b) by written notice of (i) Buyer to Seller if Seller
breaches in any material respect any of its representations or
warranties or defaults in any material respect in the observance or in
the due and timely performance of any of its covenants or agreements
herein contained and such breach or default shall not be cured within
thirty (30) days of the date of notice of breach or default served by
Buyer or (ii) Seller to the Buyer if Buyer breaches in any material
respect any of its representations or warranties or defaults in any
material respect in the observance or in the due and timely
performance of any of its covenants or agreements herein contained and
such breach or default shall not be cured within thirty (30) days of
the notice of breach or default served by Seller;

(c) by Buyer or Seller by written notice to the other, if
a court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental Entity shall
have issued an order, decree or ruling or taken any other action
(which order, decree or ruling the parties hereto shall use their best
efforts to lift), in each case permanently restraining, permanently
enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement, and such order, decree, ruling or other action shall
have become final and nonappealable; provided that Buyer shall not
have the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this Section
15.1(c) unless Buyer has satisfied the covenants contained in Section
9.1.5 hereof;

(d) by the party whose qualifications are not at issue,
if, for any reason, the FCC denies or dismisses any of the FCC
Applications and the time for reconsideration or court review under
the Communications Act with respect to such denial or dismissal has
expired and there is not pending with respect thereto a timely filed
petition for reconsideration or request for review;

(e) by written notice of Buyer to Seller if the FCC
Consents contain a condition on Buyer that (i) is unrelated to Buyer's
qualifications, (ii) could reasonably be expected to have a materially
adverse impact on the financial condition or business operations of
the Station, and (iii) the time for reconsideration or court review
under

40
50
the Communications Act with respect to such condition(s) has expired
without the filing with respect thereto of a timely petition for
reconsideration or request for review;

(f) by written notice of Buyer to Seller, or by Seller to
the Buyer, if the Closing shall not have been consummated on or before
June 1, 1999, subject to extensions as provided in Sections 10.8 and
16.1; or

(g) by written notice of Seller to Buyer, if by May 31,
1999 all of the conditions of closing by Buyer identified in Article
11 have been satisfied other than the expiration of the applicable
waiting period requirements under the HSR Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no party hereto may effect a termination hereof
if such party is in material default or breach of this Agreement.

ARTICLE 16
RISK OF LOSS

16.1 Risk of Loss.

(a) The risk of loss or damage to the Station Assets
shall be upon Seller at all times prior to the Closing. In the event
of loss or damage, Seller shall promptly notify Buyer thereof (the
"Seller's Risk of Loss Notice") and if the lost or damaged Station
Assets are capable of being replaced or repaired for an aggregate
amount less than $100,000, then Seller shall, at its sole cost and
expense, replace or repair such Station Assets prior to the Closing or
deliver to Buyer at the Closing an amount in cash equal to the cost of
replacement or repair of such Station Assets, as mutually agreed in
good faith by Buyer and Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the
amount required to replace or repair such Station Assets exceeds
$100,000, Seller may elect in the Seller's Risk of Loss Notice not to
replace or repair such Station Assets (which election must be set
forth in the Seller's Risk of Loss Notice), provided, however, that in
such event Buyer, at its option, may elect within 30 days after its
receipt of the Seller's Risk of Loss Notice to terminate this
Agreement without either party being subject to a claim by the other
for liquidated damages or any other claims for damages, or waive any
default or breach with respect to the loss or damage and receive a
$100,000 credit at Closing. Either party may extend the Closing Date
by up to 30 days in order to allow Seller to complete the repair or
replacement.

41
51
(b) Seller shall use its commercially reasonable efforts
to avoid the Station being off the air for three (3) or more
consecutive days or five (5) or more days in any thirty (30) day
period. Seller shall give prompt written notice to Buyer if either of
the following (a "Specified Event") shall occur: (i) the regular
broadcast transmissions of the Station in the normal and usual manner
are interrupted or discontinued for more than thirty (30) minutes; or
(ii) the Station is operated at less than their licensed antenna
height above average terrain or at less than ninety percent (90%) of
their licensed effective radiated power. If any Specified Event
persists for more than seventy-two consecutive (72) hours or five or
more days, whether or not consecutive, during any period of thirty
(30) consecutive days, then Buyer may, at its option: (i) terminate
this Agreement by written notice given to Seller not more than ten
(10) days after the expiration of such thirty (30) day period (without
either party being subject to a claim by the other for liquidated
damages or any other claims for damages), or (ii) proceed in the
manner set forth in Section 16.1(a) above. In the event of
termination of this Agreement by Buyer pursuant to this Section 16.1,
the parties shall be released and discharged from any further
obligation hereunder (without being subject to a claim by Seller for
liquidated damages or any other claims for damages). With respect to
Acts of God which may adversely affect Station operations, Seller
shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to reinstate Station
operations within 30 days and shall have the Station operating at not
less than seventy percent (70%) of maximum authorized effective
radiated power by the Closing Date.

(c) Resolution of Disagreements. If the parties are
unable to agree upon the extent of any loss or damage, the cost to
repair, replace or restore any lost or damaged property, the adequacy
of any repair, replacement, or restoration of any lost or damaged
property, or any other matter arising under this Section 16.1, the
disagreement shall be referred to a qualified consulting
communications engineer mutually acceptable to Seller and Buyer who is
a member of the Association of Federal Communications Consulting
Engineers, whose decision shall be final, binding upon and
non-appealable by the parties, and whose fees and expenses shall be
paid one-half by Seller and one-half by Buyer.

ARTICLE 17

title to assets only) which shall survive the Closing indefinitely (the
"Excepted Representations"), all representations and warranties

42
52
made by Seller and Buyer in this Agreement, or pursuant hereto, shall survive
the consummation of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement for a
period of one year after the Closing Date, regardless of any investigation at
any time made by or on behalf of Buyer or Seller, and shall not be deemed
merged in any document or instrument executed or delivered at the Closing.

actions as may reasonably be requested in order to more effectively assume the
Assumed Liabilities.

17.4 Financial Statements. At all times after the date hereof,
Seller shall, and shall cause their representatives (including their
independent public accountants) to, cooperate in all reasonable respects with

interim unaudited financial statements of the Station as Buyer may reasonably
determine are necessary in connection with any filing required to be made by it
or any of its Affiliates under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), or the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities

statements are required under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act. Seller
shall cause its independent

43
53
public accountants to make available to Buyer and its representatives all of
their work papers related to the financial statements or Tax Returns of Seller
(to the extent they relate to the Station) and to provide Buyer's independent
public accountants with full access to those personnel who previously have been
involved in the audit or review of Seller's financial statements or Tax
Returns. Any reasonable out-of-pocket costs incurred by Seller in connection
with Seller's obligations under this Section 17.4 shall be promptly reimbursed
by Buyer upon Buyer's receipt of reasonably detailed information regarding such
costs.

17.5 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights,
interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties
hereto, whether by operation of law or otherwise; provided, however, that
without releasing Buyer from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder
(a) nothing in this Agreement shall limit Buyer's ability to sell or transfer
any or all of its respective assets (whether by sale of stock or assets, or by
merger, consolidation or otherwise) without the consent of Seller, (b) nothing
in this Agreement shall limit Buyer's ability to assign the Station Assets
(including the right to acquire the Station Assets at the Closing) to any
Affiliate of Buyer without the consent of Seller, and (c) nothing in this
Agreement shall limit Buyer's ability to make a collateral assignment of its
rights under this Agreement to any institutional lender that provides funds to
Buyer without the consent of Seller. Seller shall execute an acknowledgment of
such assignment(s) and collateral assignments in such forms as Buyer or its
institutional lenders may from time to time reasonably request; provided,
however, that unless written notice is given to Seller that any such collateral
assignment has been foreclosed upon, Seller shall be entitled to deal
exclusively with Buyer as to any matters arising under this Agreement or any of
the other agreements delivered pursuant hereto. In the event of such an
assignment, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and
be binding on Buyer's successors and assigns.

17.10 Schedules. The schedules and exhibits attached to this
Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant hereto are hereby made a
part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein.

17.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to its subject matter and
supersedes all negotiations, prior discussions, agreements, letters of intent,
and understandings, written or oral, relating to the subject matter of this
Agreement.

46
56
17.12 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to
be unenforceable, invalid, or void to any extent for any reason, that provision
shall remain in force and effect to the maximum extent allowable, and the
enforceability and validity of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall
not be affected thereby.

17.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more
counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original, but all of which
together shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

17.14 No Third-Party Rights. Nothing in this Agreement, express or
implied, shall be construed to confer upon any person, other than the parties
hereto, their successors and permitted assigns, any legal or equitable rights,
remedies, claims, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this
Agreement (other than as provided in the Indemnification and Escrow Agreement).

17.15 Equitable Assignment. To the extent that any of the Station
Assets are not capable of being sold, assigned, transferred, delivered or
subleased without the waiver or consent of any third party or if such sale,
assignment, transfer, delivery or sublease or attempted sale, assignment,
transfer, delivery or sublease would constitute a breach thereof or a violation
of any law or regulation, this Agreement and any assignment executed pursuant
hereto shall not constitute a sale, assignment, transfer, delivery or sublease
or an attempted sale, assignment, transfer, delivery or sublease thereof. In
those cases where consents and/or waiver to the transfer and assignment to
Buyer of any of the Station Assets has not been obtained at or prior to the
Closing Date, and Seller and Buyer elect to close, this Agreement and any
assignment executed pursuant hereto, to the extent permitted by law, shall
constitute an equitable assignment by Seller to Buyer of all of Seller's
rights, benefits, title and interest in and to such Station Assets, and where
appropriate, Buyer shall be deemed to be Seller's agent for the purpose of
completion, fulfilling and discharging all Seller's rights and liabilities
arising after the Closing Date in relation to such Station Assets, provided
however, Seller's failure to obtain the requisite waiver or consent of such
third person within ninety (90) days after the Closing shall be deemed to be a
breach of this Agreement for which Buyer shall be entitled to remedy,
including, but not limited to, under the Indemnification and Escrow Agreement;
provided further, however, that no such breach shall be deemed to have occurred
if Buyer has incurred no liability, loss or damage from such failure.

47
57
17.16 Arbitration. All disputes which cannot be resolved by
agreement of the parties shall be arbitrated in Washington, D.C. in accordance
with the rules of the American Arbitration Association before a single
arbitrator who shall be jointly selected by Seller and Buyer, or if Seller and
Buyer cannot agree on the selection of such arbitrator, such arbitrator shall
be selected by the head of the Washington, D.C. office of the American
Arbitration Association. The costs of such arbitrator shall be paid by Seller
and Buyer in such proportion as the arbitrator deems equitable based on the
relative merits of the positions of the parties.

EXHIBIT A - ZAPIS ACQUISITION

INDEMNIFICATION AND ESCROW AGREEMENT

THIS INDEMNIFICATION AND ESCROW AGREEMENT (this "Agreement")
is made and entered into as of this ____ day of ______________, _____, by and
among Chancellor Media Corporation of Los Angeles, a Delaware corporation
("Buyer"), Zapis Communications Corporation, an Ohio corporation ("Seller"),
and Key Trust Company of Ohio, N.A., as escrow agent ("Agent").

RECITALS

A. Pursuant to that certain Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of
August 11, 1998, by and between Buyer and Seller (the "Asset Purchase
Agreement"), Buyer has agreed to acquire from Seller, and Seller has agreed to
sell to Buyer, all of the Station Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase
Agreement).

B. It is a condition precedent to the closing of the transactions
contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Closing"), that Buyer,
Seller and Agent execute and deliver this Agreement.

C. Unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein
shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Asset Purchase Agreement.

AGREEMENTS

In consideration of the recitals and of the respective
agreements and covenants contained herein, and intending to be legally bound
hereby, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

Section 1.1 Funds. (a) At the Closing, and only if the Closing
occurs, Buyer shall place in an escrow account with Agent (the "Account") the
sum of $2,727,200 out of the Purchase Price paid pursuant to Section 3.1 of the
Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Funds").

(b) The Funds shall be held by Agent in the Account for
the benefit of Buyer and Seller as provided in this Agreement. In no event
shall Agent disburse or invest the Funds except in accordance with this
Agreement.
60
Section 1.2 Acceptance of Appointment as Agent. Agent, by signing
this Agreement, accepts the appointment as Agent and agrees to hold and deliver
the Funds and make disbursements from the Account in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement.

Section 1.3 Distribution of Funds to Buyer Indemnitees. Agent shall
disburse to Buyer (for its own account or for the account of any Buyer
Indemnitee, as defined in Section 2.1) such portion of the Funds as may be
necessary to pay the Damages (as defined in Section 2.1) for which a Buyer
Indemnitee is entitled to reimbursement under Section 2.1. Payment shall be
made not more than three (3) business days after (i) the delivery to Agent of
written instructions signed by Buyer and Seller, specifying an amount to be
paid to a Buyer Indemnitee, or (ii) the delivery to Agent and Seller of a copy
of a Final Determination (as defined below) establishing a Buyer Indemnitee's
right to reimbursement under this Agreement with respect to such Damages. A
"Final Determination" shall mean a judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction having the authority to determine the amount of, and liability
with respect to, the determined item, which judgment is not subject to appeal,
reconsideration or review. Agent, at its option, shall be entitled to seek
and, if received, rely conclusively upon an opinion of legal counsel to the
effect that the judgment delivered to Agent pursuant to this Section 1.3 (or
pursuant to Section 1.6(b)) is a Final Determination.

Section 1.4 Investment of Funds. (a) Pending disbursement of the
Funds, Agent shall invest the Funds in Permitted Investments (as defined
below). For purposes of this Agreement, "Permitted Investments" shall mean
direct obligations of the U.S. government having maturities of 180 days or
less, money market funds that invest solely in direct obligations of the U.S.
government, including, without limitation, the Victory U.S. Obligation Fund,
and such other investments as may be specified from time to time by joint
written agreement between Buyer and Seller. As and when any payment is to be
made from the Funds or the Funds are to be otherwise disbursed under this
Agreement, Agent shall cause a sufficient portion of the Permitted Investments
to be converted into cash. Agent shall select the investments or types of
investments to be so converted. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall be liable for
any loss of principal or income due to the choice of Permitted Investments in
which the Funds are invested or the choice of Permitted Investments converted
into cash pursuant to this paragraph (a).

(b) For Tax purposes, the Funds shall be property of
Seller and all interest, dividends and other income earned on the Funds
(collectively, the "Earnings") shall be the income of Seller and be distributed
to the Seller following the Expiration Date, as hereinafter defined. Buyer and
Seller shall file Tax Returns consistent with such treatment.

2
61
Section 1.5 No Distribution of Expenses. Except as provided in
Section 2.1 of this Agreement, neither Buyer nor Seller shall be entitled to
reimbursement out of the Funds or from any alternative recovery for any costs
and expenses incurred by them in connection with exercising their rights or
performing their duties under this Agreement.

Section 1.6 Segregation of the Funds. (a) Notwithstanding any other
provision of this Agreement to the contrary, Agent shall segregate from the
Account and transfer into a separate sub-account (the "Pending Claim Account")
maintained by Agent for the benefit of Buyer and Seller the portion of the
Funds that may be necessary to satisfy in full all Pending Claims (as defined
below) and shall hold such portion in accordance with this Section 1.6;
provided, however, that Agent shall not so segregate from the Account and
transfer to the Pending Claim Account the Funds that may be necessary to
satisfy Pending Claims under Section 2.1 until such time as the aggregate
amount of Damages asserted by Buyer and any Buyer Indemnitees under Section
2.1, taken as a whole, exceeds the Indemnification Basket (as defined in
Section 3.1(a)). "Pending Claims" shall mean unresolved claims for
indemnification under Section 2.1 that are the subject of Claim Notices (as
defined in Section 2.4).

(b) Any portion of the Funds segregated under Section

ARTICLE II

INDEMNIFICATION CLAIMS

Section 2.1 Indemnification by Seller. From and after the Closing,
but subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this Agreement,
Buyer and its respective successors and assigns and their officers, directors,
stockholders, employees and agents (collectively, the

3
62
"Buyer Indemnitees") shall be entitled to reimbursement from Seller for any and
all losses, costs, damages, claims, fines, penalties, expenses (including,
without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses), amounts paid in
settlement, court costs, out-of-pocket costs, costs of investigation, and
reasonable costs of litigation (including, without limitation, reasonable fees
and expenses of accountants, investment bankers and other experts)
(collectively, "Damages") actually incurred or suffered by a Buyer Indemnitee
or to which any of the Buyer Indemnitees may be subjected, to the extent
resulting from, arising out of, based on or relating to (a) any inaccuracy in
any representation or warranty of Seller contained in the Asset Purchase
Agreement or in any schedule, instrument, exhibit, or certificate delivered
pursuant thereto (a "Related Document"), (b) any breach of any covenant or
agreement of the Seller contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement, (c) any
Retained Liabilities, (d) any liabilities with respect to Seller's failure to
comply with any "bulk sales" or similar laws in connection with the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Purchase Agreement
or (e) the case of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ Communications Corporation, et.
al., Case No. 97 CV01381, that is pending in the Court of Common Pleas,
Trumball County, Warren, Ohio or the facts from which such case has arisen.

Section 2.2 Indemnification by Buyer. From and after the
Closing, but subject to the conditions and limitations set forth in this
Agreement, Seller and its respective successors and assigns, and its officers,
directors, stockholders, employees and agents (collectively, the "Seller
Indemnitees") shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Buyer for any and all
Damages actually incurred or suffered by a Seller Indemnitee, or to which any
of the Seller Indemnitees may be subjected, to the extent resulting from,
arising out of, based on or relating to (a) any inaccuracy in any
representation or warranty of Buyer contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement
or in any Related Document, (b) any breach of any covenant or agreement of the
Buyer contained in the Asset Purchase Agreement or (c) the Assumed Liabilities.

Section 2.3 Procedures Regarding Third Party Claims. (a) In the
event that any person entitled to indemnification under this Article 2 (the
"Indemnified Party") becomes aware of any matter with respect to which it
believes it is entitled to indemnification under this Article 2 from Buyer or
Seller, as applicable (the "Indemnifying Party"), and such matter involves (i)
any claim made against the Indemnified Party by any party other than a party to
the Asset Purchase Agreement or (ii) the commencement of any action, suit,
investigation, arbitration or similar proceeding against the Indemnified Party
by any party other than a party to the Asset Purchase Agreement (a "Third Party
Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall notify the Indemnifying Party in writing
with reasonable promptness of such Third Party Claim, specifying, to the extent
known, the nature, circumstances and the amount of such Third Party Claim (a
"Third Party Claim Notice") accompanied by all correspondence, documents,
pleadings or other writings received with respect to such Third Party Claim.
Failure to give such reasonably prompt notice shall not relieve the

4
63
Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Article 2, except to the
extent the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. The
Indemnifying Party shall have ten (10) business days from its receipt of a
Third Party Claim Notice (the "Third Party Claim Notice Period") to notify the
Indemnified Party (and if Seller is the Indemnifying Party and any Funds
continue to be held by Agent, Agent as well) (i) whether the Indemnifying Party
disputes the Indemnified Party's right of indemnification, and (ii) if the
Indemnifying Party does not dispute such right of indemnification, whether or
not it desires to defend the Indemnified Party against such Third Party Claim.

(b) If the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified
Party (and if Seller is the Indemnifying Party and any Funds continue to be
held by Agent, Agent as well) in writing within the Third Party Claim Notice
Period that (i) the Indemnifying Party does not dispute the Indemnified Party's
right of indemnification and (ii) the Indemnifying Party desires to defend
against such Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall have the
right to assume and control, at its sole cost, expense and liability, the
defense of such Third Party Claim by appropriate proceedings with counsel
reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party may
participate in any such defense or settlement, at its sole cost and expense.

(c) If (i) the Indemnifying Party disputes the
Indemnified Party's right of reimbursement with respect to a Third Party Claim,
(ii) the Indemnifying Party does not dispute such right of reimbursement but
fails to promptly assume and prosecute the defense of such Third Party Claim,
or (iii) the Indemnified Party reasonably believes that a conflict of interest
exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, then the
Indemnified Party shall be entitled to assume and control (at the Indemnifying
Party's sole cost, expense and liability) the defense of such Third Party Claim
with counsel reasonably acceptable to Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying
Party does not assume the defense of a Third Party Claim for any reason, it may
still participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim at
the Indemnifying Party's sole cost and expense.

(d) The party responsible for the defense of any Third
Party Claim (the "Responsible Party") shall, to the extent reasonably requested
by the other party, keep such other party informed as to the status of any
Third Party Claim for which such other party is not the Responsible Party,
including, without limitation, all settlement negotiations and offers. Each
party shall make available to the other party and its representatives
(including accountants and counsel) all books and records of such party
relating to such Third Party Claim and shall render to each other such
assistance and access to the books and records that they may reasonably require
of each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of such Third
Party Claim, including, without limitation, making employees available (upon
reasonable advance notice and with due regard for prior scheduling commitments)
to testify in any proceeding, pretrial deposition or otherwise, except that
unless required to do so by

5
64
valid governmental or judicial order or legal process, a party shall not be
required to make available to the other party any books, records, documents or
other information that such party reasonably determines to be confidential or
subject to attorney-client privilege until the other party shall have entered
into such agreements as is reasonably necessary in light of all the surrounding
circumstances to protect such confidentiality or privilege.

(e) Neither the Indemnified Party nor the Indemnifying
Party shall enter into any settlement of any Third Party Claim without the
prior written consent of the other party (which shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed). The Responsible Party shall promptly notify the other
party of each settlement offer (including whether or not the Responsible Party
is willing to accept the proposed settlement offer) with respect to a Third
Party Claim. Such other party agrees to notify the Responsible Party with
reasonable promptness whether or not such party is willing to accept the
proposed settlement offer.

Section 2.4 Procedures Regarding Direct Claims. In the event that an
Indemnified Party has a claim for reimbursement which does not involve a Third
Party Claim (a "Direct Claim"), the Indemnified Party shall notify the
Indemnifying Party (and if Seller is the Indemnifying Party and any Funds
continue to be held by Agent, Agent as well) with reasonable promptness,
specifying, to the extent known, the nature, circumstances and amount of such
Direct Claim (a "Direct Claim Notice" and together with Third Party Claim
Notices, the "Claim Notices"), including with particularity the specific
representation and warranty or covenant and agreement alleged to have been
breached and the manner in which such representation and warranty or covenant
and agreement is alleged to have been breached. Failure to give such
reasonably prompt notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its
obligations under this Article 2, except to the extent the Indemnifying Party
is materially prejudiced thereby. If the Indemnifying Party notifies the
Indemnified Party that it disputes the Indemnified Party's right of
reimbursement with respect to a particular Direct Claim, the Indemnified Party
and the Indemnifying Party shall use their reasonable efforts to negotiate a
resolution of such dispute promptly. Nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent
the Indemnified Party from initiating litigation under this Agreement, and
subject to the limitations contained herein, against the Indemnifying Party
with respect to any Direct Claim disputed by the Indemnifying Party for the
purpose of obtaining a Final Determination in order to establish the
Indemnified Party's right to reimbursement hereunder.

ARTICLE III

LIMITATIONS ON LIABILITY

Section 3.1 Limitations on Reimbursement. (a) The Buyer Indemnitees
shall not be entitled to indemnification pursuant to Section 2.1 unless and
until aggregate Buyer Indemnitees' Damages for which indemnification otherwise
would be available under Section 2.1 exceed $170,455 (the "Indemnification
Basket"), in which event the Buyer Indemnitees shall be entitled to
reimbursement hereunder for the amount of all such Damages (including the
initial $170,455).

(b) Except with respect to indemnification pursuant to
Section 2.1(a) for the breach by Seller of any representation or warranty set
forth in Section 6.1.8 (as to title to assets only), 6.1.9 (as to title to
assets only) or 6.1.17 (as to title to assets only) of the Asset Purchase
Agreement (including any bring-down of any such representation or warranty
pursuant to any certificate delivered at Closing), the right to reimbursement
from the Funds shall constitute the sole remedy of any Buyer Indemnitee with
respect to any matter for which such Buyer Indemnitee is entitled to
indemnification under Section 2.1(a) or, as to breaches prior to the Closing,
Section 2.1(b).

(c) Any claim by any Buyer Indemnitee for reimbursement
under Section 2.1(a) must be asserted within the period of survival, as set
forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, of the representation or warranty with
respect to which such claim relates.

(d) After the Expiration Date, no Buyer Indemnitee may
assert any claim for reimbursement from the Funds.

(e) For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of
Damages, and the amount reimbursable with respect thereto, shall be reduced to
the extent of any insurance proceeds or other third party recovery received by
the Indemnified Party with respect to such Damages. If the Indemnified Party
receives any such insurance proceeds or other recovery after the Indemnifying
Party shall have made any payment to the Indemnified Party with respect to such
Damages, the Indemnified Party shall promptly return such payment to the
Indemnifying Party to the extent of insurance proceeds or other recovery
received; provided, however, that any such payment returned to Seller prior to
the Expiration Date shall be placed in the Account and become part of the Funds
and such amount shall not be deemed to have been paid to any Indemnified Party
as Damages under this Agreement. The Indemnified Party shall timely file
claims for insurance proceeds and pursue all other reasonable third party
reimbursement rights with respect to any Damages sustained by the Indemnified
Party.

7
66
(f) An Indemnified Party's rights to reimbursement or
indemnification for Damages resulting from any untrue or incorrect
representation or warranty of the Indemnifying Party shall not be affected by
any investigation made by the Indemnified Party or whether or not the
Indemnified Party relied upon such untrue or incorrect representation or
warranty; provided, however, that no Indemnified Party shall be entitled to
reimbursement or indemnification for Damages resulting from an untrue or
incorrect representation or warranty of the Indemnifying Party if (i) the fact
that such representation or warranty was untrue or incorrect was disclosed in
writing to the Indemnified Party prior to the Closing (along with an
acknowledgement by the Indemnifying Party that the conditions to the
Indemnified Party's obligation to effect the Closing, as a result of the
failure of such representation or warranty to be true and correct, are not
satisfied) and (ii) the Indemnified Party nevertheless determines to effect the
Closing.

ARTICLE IV

AGENT

Section 4.1 Rights and Responsibilities of Agent. (a) The duties
and responsibilities of Agent shall be limited to those expressly set forth in
this Agreement and it shall not be subject to, nor obligated to recognize, any
other agreement between, or direction or instruction of, the parties to this
Agreement, unless such agreement, direction or instruction is in writing and is
signed by both Buyer and Seller.

(b) If any controversy arises between the parties to this
Agreement, or with any other party, concerning the subject matter of this
Agreement, its terms or conditions, Agent will not be required to determine the
controversy or to take any action regarding it. Agent may hold all documents
and funds and may wait for settlement of any such controversy by final
appropriate legal proceedings or other means as, in Agent's discretion, Agent
may require, despite what may be set forth elsewhere in this Agreement. In
such event, Agent will not be liable for interest or damage. Furthermore,
Agent may, at its option, file an action of interpleader requiring the parties
to answer and litigate any claims and rights among themselves. Agent is
authorized to deposit with the clerk of the court all documents and funds held
in escrow. All costs, expenses, charges and reasonable attorney fees incurred
by Agent due to the interpleader action shall be paid one-half by Buyer and
one-half by Seller, in each case jointly and severally. Upon initiating such
action, Agent shall be fully released and discharged of and from all
obligations and liability imposed by the terms of this Agreement.

8
67
(c) In performing any duties under the Agreement, Agent
shall not be liable to any party for damages, losses, or expenses, except as a
result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of Agent. Agent
shall not incur any such liability for any action taken or omitted in reliance
upon any instrument, including any written statement or affidavit provided for
in this Agreement that Agent shall in good faith believe to be genuine, nor
will Agent be liable or responsible for forgeries, fraud, impersonations, or
determining the scope of any representative authority. In addition, Agent may
consult with legal counsel in connection with Agent's duties under this
Agreement and shall be fully protected in any act taken, suffered, or permitted
by it in good faith in accordance with the advice of counsel. In the absence
of knowledge that any action taken or purported to be taken hereunder is
wrongful, Agent is not responsible for determining and verifying the authority
of any person acting or purporting to act on behalf of any party to this
Agreement.

(d) Agent, and any successor Agent, may resign at any
time as escrow agent hereunder by giving at least 30 days prior written notice
to Seller and Buyer. Upon such resignation and the appointment of a successor
escrow agent, the resigning Agent shall be absolved from any and all liability
in connection with the exercise of its powers and duties as escrow agent
hereunder except for liability arising in connection with its own gross
negligence or willful misconduct. Upon their receipt of notice of resignation
from Agent, Buyer and Seller shall use commercially reasonable efforts jointly
to designate a successor Agent. In the event Buyer and Seller do not agree
upon a successor escrow agent within 30 days after the receipt of such notice,
Agent so resigning may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the
appointment of a successor Agent or other appropriate relief and any such
resulting appointment shall be binding upon all parties hereto. By mutual
agreement, Buyer and Seller shall have the right at any time upon not less than
10 days' prior written notice to Agent to terminate the appointment of Agent,
or successor Agent, as escrow agent hereunder. Agent or successor Agent shall
continue to act as escrow agent until a successor is appointed and qualified to
act as Agent.

Section 4.2 Fees and Expenses of Agent. Agent shall (a) be paid a
fee for its services under this Agreement as provided by Exhibit A and (b) be
entitled to reimbursement for reasonable expenses (including the reasonable
fees and disbursements of its counsel engaged pursuant to Sections 1.3 and/or
1.4 hereof, or otherwise) actually incurred by it in connection with its duties
under this Agreement (collectively, the "Agent Fees and Expenses"). All Agent
Fees and Expenses shall be paid one-half by Buyer and one-half by Seller.
Escrow Agent shall have a lien upon the Funds for payment of its fees and
expenses. Escrow Agent may pay itself from the Funds for any fees and expenses
for which it has not been paid.

9
68
Section 4.3 Indemnification of Agent. The parties and their
respective successors and assigns agree jointly and severally to indemnify and
hold Agent harmless against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities,
and expenses, including reasonable costs of investigation, reasonable legal
counsel fees and disbursements that may be imposed on Agent or incurred by
Agent in connection with the performance of its duties under this Agreement,
including but not limited to any litigation arising from this Agreement or
involving its subject matter, provided, however, neither Buyer nor Seller nor
their successors and assigns need indemnify Agent for any loss, claim, damage,
liability or expense caused by Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.
