comprising such Short-Term Loan Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the
Federal Funds Rate.  If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent such
corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank's Short-
Term Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.  If the
Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such
payment shall not relieve such Bank of any obligation it may have to the
Borrower hereunder.

          (f)  The failure of any Bank to make the Short-Term Loan to be made by
it as part of any Short-Term Loan Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall
not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its
Short-Term Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Bank to make the Short-Term Loan to be made by such
other Bank on the date of any such Short-Term Loan Borrowing.

          2.3.  Termination/Reduction of the Short-Term Loan Commitments.  (a) 
                --------------------------------------------------------
Optional Reductions.  The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least one
- - -------------------
Business Day's prior notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole
or permanently reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective
Short-Term Loan Commitments of the Banks; provided, however, that each partial
                                          --------  -------
reduction shall be in the aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an
integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.

     (b)  Mandatory Reductions.  If the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall
          --------------------
(i) sell any assets (other than in the ordinary course of business) or
(ii) effect a Capital Market Transaction, then (a) the Short-Term Loan
Commitment of each Bank shall be automatically reduced by an amount equal to
such Bank's Ratable Portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of such sale or Capital
Market Transaction, up to an aggregate of $2.5 billion for all Banks; provided,
                                                                      --------
however, that:
- - -------

          (x)  no such reduction of any Short-Term Loan Commitment shall be
     required for a period of 12 months from the related sale date in respect of
     Net Cash 






























                                          -25-





<PAGE>








     Proceeds from the sale of those publishing assets identified on
     Schedule 2.3(b) hereto; and

          (y)  no such reduction of any Short-Term Loan Commitment shall be
     required for a period of 12 months from the related sale date in respect of
     other Net Cash Proceeds in an aggregate amount of (A) up to $100 million,
     plus (B) after the aggregate Short-Term Loan Commitments have been reduced
     ----
     to $1.5 billion, up to an additional $150 million in the aggregate of Net
     Cash Proceeds plus (C) after the aggregate Short-Term Loan Commitments have
                   ----
     been reduced to $1.5 billion, up to an additional $250 million of Net Cash
     Proceeds received in excess of amounts previously or subsequently applied
     under (A) and (B) if at the time of receipt thereof the Total Leverage
     Ratio is equal to or less than 6.50x. 

In the event that Net Cash Proceeds are not reinvested (or a purchase agreement
has not been executed) in the 12-month period provided above, the Short-Term
Loan Commitment of each Bank shall be reduced by such Bank's Ratable Portion of
any Net Cash Proceeds referred to in clause (x) or (y) above (i) in respect of
which no such reduction shall previously have occurred and (ii) which have not
been reinvested (and no purchase agreement in respect of such reinvestment has
been executed) on or prior to such date, provided, however, for purposes of this
                                         --------  -------
Section 2.3(b), reinvestment of Net Cash Proceeds within the 12 month period
provided above shall be deemed to include assets purchased after the date hereof
but within six months prior to the transactions which produced such Net Cash
Proceeds.  After the Short-Term Loan Commitments have been reduced to $0 and all
Short-Term Loans have been repaid, no mandatory reductions of any Commitment
shall be required from such Net Cash Proceeds.
 
          (c)  Payment of Commitment Fee.  Simultaneously with any termination
               -------------------------
or reduction of the Short-Term Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.3,
the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Bank
the applicable Commitment Fee, if any, on the amount of the Short-Term Loan
Commitments so terminated or reduced and owed to such Bank through the date of
such termination or reduction.

          2.4.  Repayment of the Short-Term Loans.  The Borrower shall repay the
                ---------------------------------
outstanding principal amount of the Short-Term Loans in full on the Short-Term
Loan Commitment Termination Date.

          2.5.  Optional Prepayments of the Short-Term Loans.  The Borrower may,
                --------------------------------------------

                                          -26-





<PAGE>








prior notice (or at least one Business Day's prior notice in the case of Base
Rate Loans) to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate
principal amount of the prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower
shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Short-Term Loans, in whole
or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such
prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that the Borrower
                                            --------  -------
shall indemnify the Banks pursuant to Section 13.4(c) in the event that any
prepayment of any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made on a day other than the
last day of an Interest Period for such Loans; and provided further, however,
                                                   -------- -------  -------
that each partial prepayment permitted under this Section 2.5 shall be in an
aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000
in excess thereof.

          2.6.  Mandatory Prepayment.  The Borrower shall prepay Short-Term
                --------------------
Loans to the extent necessary to ensure that (i) the aggregate amount of all
Short-Term Loans outstanding will not at any time exceed the Short-Term Loan
Commitments of the Banks, and (ii) the aggregate amount of all Revolving Loans
and Short-Term Loans outstanding, together with the aggregate face amount of
Commercial Paper outstanding, will not at any time exceed the aggregate amount
of the Short-Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Loan Commitments of the Banks. 
Any prepayments required to assure that the aggregate unused amount of the
Short-Term Loan Commitments and the Revolving Loan Commitments is not less than
the face amount of outstanding Commercial Paper shall be applied first to the
Revolving Loans and then to the Short-Term Loans.

          2.7.  Conversion to Term Loans.  On any date prior to the Short-Term
                ------------------------
Loan Commitment Termination Date that the Borrower prepays in full any
Subsidiary Loans (as defined in the Subsidiary Facility) to an MSub under the
Subsidiary Facility, the Borrower may elect, by not less than three Business
Days' prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, to convert an
outstanding portion of the Short-Term Loans to additional Term Loans in an
amount equal to the principal amount of such Subsidiary Loans (as defined in the
Subsidiary Facility) being prepaid.  Such conversion shall be made ratably among
the respective outstanding Short-Term Loans of the Banks and shall be effective
simultaneously with the prepayment of the relevant MSub Loans.  The Term Loans
resulting from such conversion shall for all purposes be treated as outstanding
Term Loans hereunder, provided, however, that the principal amount of such
                      --------  -------
resulting Term Loans shall be payable in quarterly installments on January 1,
April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing

Such amounts shall be payable in addition to all amounts otherwise due and

Commitments of the Banks shall be automatically reduced by the amount of the
Short-Term Loans converted under this Section 2.7 on the date they are so
converted.

          (b)  Evidence of Debt.  (i)  Each Bank shall maintain in accordance
               ----------------
with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness to

                --------------------------
shall be made upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, given by the Borrower to
the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on

          (b)  The Administrative Agent shall give to each Bank prompt notice
(but in any event on the same day) of its receipt of a Notice of Borrowing in
respect of Revolving Loans and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested 
































                                          -29-





<PAGE>








in such Notice of Borrowing, upon its determination thereof, notice of the
applicable interest rate under Section 5.3(b).  Each Bank shall, before
11:00 A.M. (or in the case of a Revolving Loan Borrowing being made on the same
day, before 12:00 noon) (New York City time) on the date of the proposed
Revolving Loan Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable
Lending Office to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section
13.2, in immediately available funds, such Bank's Ratable Portion of such
proposed Revolving Loan Borrowing.  After the Administrative Agent's receipt of
such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in
Article VI, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the
Borrower at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

          (c)  Each Revolving Loan Borrowing pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall
be in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of
$5,000,000 in excess thereof.

irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.  In the case of any proposed Revolving
Loan Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Borrower shall indemnify
each Bank against any loss, cost or expense incurred by such Bank as a result of
any failure to fulfill on or before the date specified in such Notice of
Borrowing for such proposed Borrowing the applicable conditions set forth in
Article VI, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of the
margin payable in accordance with Section 5.2 on the amount of principal not
borrowed as a result of such failure), cost or expense incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to
fund any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made by such Bank as part of such proposed
Revolving Loan Borrowing when such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as a result of such
failure, is not made on such date.

          (e)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Bank prior to the date of any proposed Revolving Loan Borrowing pursuant to this
Section 3.2 that such Bank will not make available to the Administrative Agent
such Bank's Ratable Portion of such Revolving Loan Borrowing, the Administrative
Agent may assume that such Bank has made such Ratable Portion available to the
Administrative Agent on the date of such Revolving Loan Borrowing in accordance
with this Section 3.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such
assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. 
If and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such Ratable Portion
available to the 































                                          -30-

Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent has so made available such
amount, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent,
at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to
the Revolving Loan comprising such Revolving Loan Borrowing and (ii) in the case
of such Bank, the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Bank shall repay to the
Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall
constitute such Bank's Revolving Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of
this Agreement.  If the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such
corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Bank of any obligation
it may have to the Borrower hereunder.

          (f)  The failure of any Bank to make the Revolving Loan to be made by
it as part of any Revolving Loan Borrowing pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall
not relieve any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its
Revolving Loan on the date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible
for the failure of any other Bank to make the Revolving Loan to be made by such
other Bank on the date of any such Revolving Loan Borrowing.

          4.2.  Making the Term Loans.  (a)  The Term Loan Borrowing shall be
                ---------------------
made upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing, given by the Borrower to the
Administrative Agent not later than (i) 9:30 A.M. (New York City time) on the
Initial Funding Date, in the event the Term Loan Borrowing is to be comprised of
Base Rate Loans, and (ii) 11:00 A.M. (New York City time) on the third Business
Day prior to the Initial Funding Date, in the event the Term Loan Borrowing is
to be comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans.

          (b)  The Administrative Agent shall give to each Bank prompt notice
(but in any event on the same day) of its receipt of a Notice of Borrowing in
respect of Term Loans and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested in
such Notice of Borrowing, upon its determination thereof, notice of the
applicable interest rate under Section 5.3(b).  Each Bank shall, before
11:00 A.M. (or in the case of a Term Loan Borrowing being made on the same day,
before 12:00 noon) (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Term Loan
Borrowing, make available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to
the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 13.2, in
immediately available funds, such Bank's Ratable Portion of such proposed Term
Loan Borrowing.  After the Administrative Agent's receipt of such funds and upon
fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in Article VI, the
Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the Borrower at the
Administrative Agent's above-referenced address.

          (c)  The Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and binding on the
Borrower.  In the case of a proposed Term Loan Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar
Rate Loans, the Borrower shall indemnify each Bank against any loss, cost or
expense incurred by such Bank as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before
the date specified in the Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set
forth in Article VI, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of
the margin payable in accordance with Section 5.2 on the amount of principal not
borrowed as a result of such failure), cost or expense incurred by reason of the
liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds 































                                          -34-

acquired by such Bank to fund the Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made by such Bank
as part of the proposed Term Loan Borrowing when such Eurodollar Rate Loan, as a
result of such failure, is not made on such date.

          (d)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a
Bank prior to the date of the proposed Term Loan Borrowing that such Bank will
not make available to the Administrative Agent such Bank's Ratable Portion of
the Term Loan Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has
made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of
the Term Loan Borrowing in accordance with this Section 4.2 and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that
such Bank shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the
Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent has so made available such
amount, such Bank and the Borrower severally agree to repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to
the Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent,
at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to
the Term Loans comprising the Term Loan Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such
Bank, the Federal Funds Rate.  If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative
Agent such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such
Bank's Term Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.  If
the Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount,
such payment shall not relieve such Bank of any obligation it may have to the
Borrower hereunder.

          (e)  The failure of any Bank to make its Term Loan shall not relieve
any other Bank of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Term Loan on the
date of such Borrowing, but no Bank shall be responsible for the failure of any
other Bank to make the Term Loan to be made by such other Bank.

          4.3.  Repayment of Term Loans.  (a)  The principal amount of the Term
                -----------------------
Loan of each Bank shall be payable in quarterly installments on January 1,
April 1, July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing July 1, 1997, and ending
on July 1, 2002, in an amount equal to such Bank's Ratable Portion of the
quarterly amount set forth in column (y) below opposite the period specified in
column (x) during which such date occurs:

                     October 1, 1997                      $65,670,000

                     January 1, 1998 through
                     October 1, 1999                      $87,560,000

                     January 1, 2000 through

                     January 1, 2001 through
                     July 1, 2002                        $131,340,000
The amounts under (y) shall be adjusted in the amounts and in the manner
required under Section 4.4.

          (b)  The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal amount of the
Term Loans (together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon) in full on
the Commitment Termination Date.

          4.4.  Optional Prepayments of the Term Loans.  The Borrower may, upon
                --------------------------------------
at least three Business Days' prior notice (or at least one Business Day's prior
notice in the case of Base Rate Loans) to the Administrative Agent stating the
proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the prepayment, and if such
notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of
the Term Loans, in whole or in part, together with accrued interest to the date
of such prepayment; provided, however, that the Borrower shall indemnify the
                    --------  -------
Banks pursuant to Section 13.4(c) in the event that any prepayment of any
Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made on a day other than the last day of an
Interest Period for such Loans.  Amounts borrowed under Section 4.1(a) and
prepaid pursuant to this Section 4.4 may not be reborrowed.  Any such prepayment
of the Term Loans that is made at the Borrower's option as a result of the
receipt by the Borrower of Net Cash Proceeds of asset sales or Capital Market
Transactions shall be applied (a) 50% in order of maturity, and (b) 50% pro rata
among all remaining maturities applicable to the Term Loan Commitment; any other
prepayment made at the Borrower's option may be allocated among remaining
maturities in any manner requested by the Borrower.

                   CONVERSION, INTEREST, PAYMENTS, FEES, ETC.

          5.1.  Conversion/Continuation Option.  The Borrower may elect (i) at
                ------------------------------
any time to convert Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate
Loans or (ii) at the end of any Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert
Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans, or to
continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof as Eurodollar Rate
Loans for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the aggregate
                                         --------  -------
of the Eurodollar Rate Loans of the Borrower so converted or so continued for
each Interest Period must be in the amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple
of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.  Each such election shall be in substantially
the form of Exhibit D hereto (a "Notice of Conversion or Continuation") and
shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent at least one Business Day's, in
the case of a conversion to a Base Rate Loan, and three Business Days', in the
case of a conversion to or a continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, prior
written notice thereof specifying (A) the amount and type of conversion or
continuation, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar
Rate Loans, the Interest Period therefor, and (C) in the case of a conversion
the date of conversion (which date shall be a Business Day and, if a conversion
from a Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall also be the last day of the Interest Period
therefor).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly (but in any event on the
same day) notify each Bank of its receipt of a Notice of Conversion or
Continuation and of the contents thereof.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans, and
no continuation in whole or in part of Eurodollar Rate Loans upon the expiration
of any Interest Period therefor, shall be permitted at any time at which an
Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  If, within the time
period required under the terms of this Section 5.1, the Administrative Agent
does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from the Borrower
containing an election to continue all or any portion of the Eurodollar Rate
Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert all or any portion of such
Loans, then, upon the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Loans or
the portions thereof for which an election to continue or convert has not been
made will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans.  Each Notice of
Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

          5.2.  Interest.  The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid
                --------
principal amount of each Loan from the date thereof until the principal amount
thereof shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:

          (a)  Base Rate Loans.  For Base Rate Loans, at a rate per annum equal
               ---------------
     at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable
     quarterly in arrears on the last day of each September, December, March and
     June, on the Commitment Termination Date and on the date any Base Rate Loan
     is converted or paid in full.

          (b)  Eurodollar Rate Loans.  For Eurodollar Rate Loans, at a rate per
               ---------------------
     annum equal at all times during the applicable Interest Period for each
     Eurodollar Rate Loan to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest
     Period plus the Applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin, payable in arrears (i)
     on the last day of such Interest Period and (ii) if such Interest Period
     has a duration of more than three months, on each day during such Interest
     Period that occurs every three months from the first day of such Interest
     Period.

          (c)  Default Rate of Interest.  If any amount of principal of any Loan
               ------------------------
     is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or
     otherwise, the interest rate applicable to any such amount shall be
     increased by 2.00% per annum, payable on demand, and if any interest, fee
     or other amount payable hereunder is not paid when due, such amount shall
     bear interest at a rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in
     effect from time to time plus 2% per annum payable on demand.

          5.3.  Interest Rate Determination and Protection.  (a)  In the event
                ------------------------------------------
that the Eurodollar Rate is not available from the Telerate Page, the Eurodollar
Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be determined by
the Administrative Agent on the basis of applicable rates furnished to and
received by the Administrative Agent from the Reference Banks two Business Days
before such Interest Period.  Each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the
Administrative Agent timely information for the purpose of determining each
Eurodollar Rate.  If any of the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely
information to the Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining any such
interest rate, the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on
the basis of timely information furnished by the other Reference Bank or
Reference Banks.

          (b)  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower
and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined by the Administrative
Agent for purposes of Section 5.2(a) or (b), and the applicable rate, if any,
furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of determining the applicable
interest rate under Section 5.2(b).

          (c)  If, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, the Majority Banks
determine in good faith and notify the Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar
Rate for any Interest Period will not adequately reflect the cost to such Banks
of making such Loans or funding or maintaining their respective Eurodollar Rate
Loans for such Interest Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so
notify the Borrower and the Banks, whereupon

          (i)  each Eurodollar Rate Loan will automatically, on the last day of
     the then existing Interest Period therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan
     unless the Majority Banks notify the Administrative Agent that the
     circumstances causing such conversion no longer exist and the Borrower
     delivers a timely Notice of Conversion or Continuation with respect to such
     Loans; and

          (ii)  the obligations of the Banks to make Eurodollar Rate Loans or to
     convert Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until the
     Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Banks that the
     circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

          5.4.  Fees.  (a)  The Borrower will pay on the last day of each Fiscal
                ----
Quarter to each of the Banks quarterly in arrears a fee (the "Commitment Fee")
accruing from the tenth Business Day after the Documentation Agent has notified
the Borrower that the Agreement has been executed by the Banks (or such earlier
date on or after the execution hereof as the Merger Date shall have occurred),
in the case of each Bank listed on the signature pages hereof, and from any
later effective date of the assignment pursuant to which it became a Bank, in
the case of each other Bank, until the Commitment Termination Date, on such
Bank's aggregate average daily unused Commitment as in effect from time to time
at the rate set forth below opposite the Credit Rating applicable to the
Borrower on such date:

                     BB-/Ba3 or lower                         .5000%

; provided, however, that if the ratings assigned by S&P and Moody's shall
  --------  -------
differ by one level, the Credit Rating shall be the rating which is the higher
level, or if they differ by more than one level, the Credit Rating shall be the
rating that is one rating level immediately above the lower of such ratings. 
Any change in the Credit Rating of the Borrower shall be effective to adjust the
Commitment Fee as of the date such change is announced.

          (b)  The Borrower has agreed to pay to the Banks, Managing Agents,
Agents, Co-Agents and Arrangers certain other fees which are earned on the date
of the signing of this Agreement and payable on the earlier of (x) the Initial
Funding Date or (y) September 30, 1994,
as separately agreed.

          5.5.  Increased Costs.  (a)  If, due to either (i) the introduction of
                ---------------
or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) in, or in the
interpretation of, any law or regulation or (ii) the compliance with any
guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority
(whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the
cost (other than with respect to income, franchise or withholding taxes or other
taxes of a similar nature) to any Bank of agreeing to make or making, funding or
maintaining any Eurodollar Rate Loans, then (A) such Bank shall, as soon as such
Bank becomes aware of such increased cost, but in any event not later than 60
days after such increased cost was incurred, deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent a certificate stating (1) the actual amount of such
increased cost incurred by such Bank and (2) that it is such Bank's customary
practice, from and after the date of this Agreement, to charge its borrowers for
increased costs incurred by it; (B) the Borrower shall, within 30 days after its
receipt of such certificate, at its sole option, either (1) pay to the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank amounts sufficient to
compensate such Bank for the increased cost incurred by it as set forth in the
certificate referred to above or (2) replace such Bank in

accordance with the provisions of Section 5.10, provided that if the Borrower
                                                --------
does not exercise the option specified in clause (2) above within 30 days after
receipt of the certificate referred to above, then (x) such Bank shall deliver
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a second certificate stating the
increased cost incurred by such Bank and (y) the Borrower shall promptly upon
receipt of such second certificate pay to the Administrative Agent for the
account of such Bank amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for such
increased cost; and (C) such Bank shall use its reasonable best efforts to
designate another of its then existing offices as its Applicable Lending Office
if the making of such designation would, without any detrimental effect to such
Bank, avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, future increased costs which
are probable of being incurred by such Bank.  The amount of increased costs
payable by the Borrower to any Bank as stated in any such certificate delivered
to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this
Section 5.5(a) shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.  In determining any such amount, such Bank may use reasonable averaging
and attribution methods.  If the Borrower so notifies the Administrative Agent
within five Business Days after receipt of any certificate delivered to the
Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5(a), the Borrower may
either (x) prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Bank then
outstanding in accordance with Section 5.8 and, additionally, reimburse such
Bank for such increased cost in accordance with this Section 5.5(a) or
(y) convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of all Banks then outstanding into Base
Rate Loans in accordance with Section 5.1 and, additionally, reimburse such Bank
for such increased cost in accordance with this Section 5.5(a).

          (b)  If any Bank shall be required under Regulation D to maintain
reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including
Eurocurrency Liabilities, then (i) such Bank shall, within 60 days after the end
of any Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan during which
such Bank was so required to maintain such reserves, deliver to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent a certificate stating (A) that such Bank was required
to maintain reserves and as a result such Bank incurred additional costs in
connection with making Eurodollar Rate Loans, (B) in reasonable detail, such
Bank's computations of the amount of additional interest payable by the Borrower
pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5(b)(ii) and (C) that it is such
Bank's customary practice, from and after the date of this Agreement, to charge
its borrowers for reserves so maintained by it, and 

































                                          -41-

(ii) the Borrower shall, promptly upon receipt of any such certificate, pay to
the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Bank, additional interest on
the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate Loan of such Bank
outstanding during the Interest Period with respect to which the
above-referenced certificate was delivered to the Borrower, at a rate per annum
equal to the difference obtained by subtracting (x) the Eurodollar Rate for such
Interest Period from (y) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate by a
percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such
Bank for such Interest Period.  The amount of interest payable by the Borrower
to any Bank as stated in any certificate delivered to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 5.5(b) shall be
conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

          (c)  The payments required under Sections 5.5(a) and (b) are in
addition to any other payments and indemnities required under this Agreement.

          5.6.  Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
                ----------
Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of
any law or regulation, in each case after the date hereof, shall make it
unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that
it is unlawful, for any Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make Eurodollar
Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, then, on
notice thereof and demand therefor by such Bank to the Borrower through the
Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Bank to make or to continue
Eurodollar Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Eurodollar Rate Loans
shall be suspended until such Bank through the Administrative Agent shall notify
the Borrower that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and
(ii) the Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of
such Bank then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless the
Borrower, within five Business Days of such notice and demand, converts all
Eurodollar Rate Loans of all Banks then outstanding into Base Rate Loans in
accordance with the notice periods of Section 5.1; provided, however, that
                                                   --------  -------
before making any such demand, each Bank agrees to use its reasonable best
efforts to designate another of its then existing offices as its Applicable
Lending Office if the making of such a designation would, without any
detrimental effect to such Bank, cause the making of Eurodollar Rate Loans to
not be subject to this Section 5.6.

          5.7.  Capital Adequacy.  If any Bank shall, at any time, reasonably
                ----------------
determine that (a) the adoption (i) after the date of this Agreement, of any
capital adequacy guidelines or (ii) at any time, of any other applicable law,
government rule, regulation or order regarding capital adequacy of banks or bank
holding companies, (b) any change in (i) any of the foregoing or (ii) the
interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any Governmental
Authority, central bank or comparable agency or (c) compliance with any policy,
guideline, directive or request regarding capital adequacy (whether or not
having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply therewith would be
unlawful) of any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency,
would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Bank
to a level below that which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption,
change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Bank with
respect to capital adequacy in effect immediately before such adoption, change
or compliance) and (x) such reduction is as a consequence of the Commitment of,
or the making, converting or continuing of any Loans by, such Bank hereunder and
(y) such reduction is reasonably deemed by such Bank to be material, then
(1) such Bank shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent a
certificate stating the reduction in the rate of return such Bank will in the
future suffer as a result of its Commitment or the making, converting or
continuing any Loans by it to the Borrower hereunder and (2) the Borrower shall,
within 30 days after its receipt of such certificate, at its sole option, either
(A) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank from time to
time as specified by such Bank such amount as shall be sufficient to compensate
such Bank for such reduced return, or (B) replace such Bank in accordance with
the provisions of Section 5.10; provided, however, that if the Borrower does not
                                --------  -------
exercise the option specified in clause (B) above within 30 days after receipt
of the certificate referred to above, then (1) such Bank shall deliver to the
Borrower and the Administrative Agent a second certificate stating the reduction
in the rate of return of such Bank and (2) the Borrower shall promptly pay, as
specified by such Bank, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Bank
amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for the reduction in its rate of
return.  The amount stated in any certificate delivered to the Borrower pursuant
to the provisions of this Section 5.7 shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.  In determining any such amount, such Bank may

          5.8.  Payments and Computations.  (a)  The Borrower shall make each
                -------------------------
payment payable by it hereunder not later than 11:00 A.M. (New York City time)
on the day when due, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent at its address
referred to in Section 13.2 in immediately available funds without set-off or
counterclaim.  The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter (but in any
event on the same day) cause to be distributed like funds relating to the
payment of principal or interest or fees ratably (other than amounts payable
pursuant to Section 5.5, 5.6 or 5.7) to the Banks for the account of their
respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of
any other amount payable to any Bank to such Bank for the account of its
Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.  Payment received by the Administrative Agent after
11:00 A.M. (New York City time) shall be deemed to be received on the next
Business Day; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall use its
              --------  -------
reasonable best efforts to invest any amounts so received by the Administrative
Agent in overnight investments satisfactory to the Borrower, and any earnings on
any such investments shall be for the Borrower's account and may be credited
against any interest payable hereunder during such period.

          (b)  All computations of the Commitment Fee or of interest based on
the rate of interest specified in clause (a) of the definition of Base Rate and
of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365
or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on the
Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the Administrative
Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the
period for which such interest and fees are payable.  All computations of the
Commitment Fee shall be based on the aggregate average daily unused Commitment
of each Bank.  Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest
rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

          (c)  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day
other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding
Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the
computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be.

          (d)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from
the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Banks
hereunder that the Borrower 































                                          -44-





<PAGE>








will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the
Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date
and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be
distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due
such Bank.  If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such
payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the
Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank
together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is
distributed to such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the
Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

          5.9.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Bank shall obtain any payment
                -------------------------
(whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off,
or otherwise) on account of the Loans made by it (other than pursuant to Section
5.5, 5.6 or 5.7) in excess of its Ratable Portion of payments on account of the
Loans obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall forthwith purchase from the
other Banks such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary
to cause such purchasing Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of
them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is
      --------  -------
thereafter recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank
shall be rescinded and each such Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the
purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to
such Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
Bank's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered.  The Borrower
agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank pursuant to
this Section 5.9 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its
rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with respect to such
participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct creditor of the Borrower
in the amount of such participation.

          5.10.  Replacement Banks.  Upon the election of the Borrower to
                 -----------------
replace any Bank pursuant to the provisions of Section 5.5(a)(B)(2) or
5.7(2)(B), the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent a notice
setting forth the replacement Bank or Banks, and the Bank being so replaced
shall take all actions as may be necessary to transfer to such replacement Bank
or Banks all of the rights and obligations of such Bank hereunder and such
replacement

an assignment in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.7.

its Subsidiaries is a party to, nor has any knowledge of, any investigation,
notice of violation, order or complaint issued by or before the FCC, in which
there is a reasonable probability of an adverse decision which is reasonably
probable to have a Material Adverse Effect.  The operation and maintenance of
the towers and any antenna systems relating to each of the broadcast Properties
owned by the Borrower and its Subsidiaries or used in connection with the
transmission of signals therefrom do not violate any Requirement of Law except
for such non-compliance which would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  The
Borrower and its Subsidiaries have all the Franchises necessary for the conduct
of their businesses as now being conducted and are in substantial compliance
with the requirements of such Franchises, except for such non-compliance which
would not have a Material Adverse Effect.  The Borrower and its Subsidiaries
have no reason to believe that any FCC License or any Franchise of the Borrower
and its Subsidiaries will not be renewed in the ordinary course except for such
nonrenewal which would not have a Material Adverse Effect.

periods covered may differ from the delivered projections and other prospective
information.

duties in its capacity as such or as a Bank under this Agreement and any other
rights or duties it may have in any other capacity in which it may act in
connection with the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, whether or not such Bank is a party to such transactions.  Without
limitation of the foregoing, each Bank agrees to reimburse any such Person
promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses
(including fees and disbursements of one counsel) incurred by such Person in
connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration,
modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal
proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or

Managing Agents or any Facility Agent to exercise, and no delay in exercising,

<PAGE>








(whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this
Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered
hereunder and thereunder.

          (b)  The Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold harmless each
of the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents, the Arrangers and the Banks and
their respective affiliates and their respective directors, officers, attorneys,
agents, employees, successors and assigns (each, an "Indemnified Person") from
and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, claims, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind
or nature whatsoever (including, without limitation, fees and disbursements of
counsel of the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents, the Arrangers or the Banks)
which may be incurred by or asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Person,
in each case arising in any manner of or in connection with or by reason of the
Merger, the Merger Agreement, the Tender Offer, this Agreement, the other Loan
Documents, the Commitments or any undertakings in connection therewith, or the
proposed or actual application of the proceeds of the Loans (all of the
foregoing collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities") and will reimburse each
Indemnified Person on a current basis for all expenses (including counsel fees
as they are incurred by such party) in connection with investigating, preparing
or defending any such action, claim or suit, whether or not in connection with
pending or threatened litigation irrespective of whether such Indemnified Person
is designated a party thereto; provided that the Borrower shall not have any
                               --------
liability hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified
Liabilities which are determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen primarily from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person; and provided
                                                                 --------
further, that if the Borrower has determined in good faith that such Indemnified
- - -------
Liabilities were primarily the result of such Indemnified Person's gross
negligence or willful misconduct, it shall not be obligated to pay such
Indemnified Liabilities until a court of competent jurisdiction has determined
whether such Indemnified Person acted with gross negligence or willful
misconduct.  If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is unavailable to
an Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold an Indemnified Person harmless,
then the Borrower shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such
Indemnified Person as a result of any Indemnified Liability in such proportion
as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits received by the
Borrower and each Managing Agent, each Facility Agent, each Arranger and each
Bank, but 
































                                          -72-





<PAGE>








also the relative fault of the Borrower and each Managing Agent, each Facility
Agent, each Arranger and each Bank, as well as any other relevant equitable
considerations.  The foregoing indemnity shall be in addition to any rights that
any Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise, including, but not
limited to, any right to contribution.

          (c)  If any Bank receives any payment of principal of, or is subject
to a conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on the last day of an
Interest Period relating to such Loan, as a result of any payment or conversion
made by the Borrower or acceleration of the maturity of the amounts due under
this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.1 or for any other reason, the Borrower
shall, upon demand by such Bank (with a copy of such demand to the
Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
Bank any amounts required to compensate such Bank for any additional losses,
costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a result of such payment or
conversion, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss of the
margin payable in accordance with Section 5.2 on the amount of principal so
paid, or any loss), cost or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or
reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Bank to fund or
maintain such Loan.  The foregoing obligations of the Borrower contained in
paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 13.4, and the obligations of the
Borrower contained in Sections 5.5(b) and 5.7, shall survive the payment of the
Loans.

          13.5.  Right of Set-Off.  Upon (i) the occurrence and during the
                 ----------------
continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the
granting of the consent specified by Section 11.1 to authorize the
Administrative Agent to declare all amounts under this Agreement due and payable
pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.1 or the automatic acceleration of such
amounts pursuant to the proviso to that Section, each Bank is hereby authorized
at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to
set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand,
provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing
by such Bank to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and
all of the obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under this
Agreement irrespective of whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand
under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Each Bank
agrees promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application
made by such Bank; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall
                   --------  -------
not affect the validity of such set-off and 































                                          -73-

application.  The rights of each Bank under this Section 13.5 are in addition to
any other rights and remedies (including, without limitation, any other rights
of set-off) which such Bank may have.

          13.6.  Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective when it
                 --------------
shall have been executed by the Borrower, each of the Managing Agents, each of
the Facility Agents and each of the Arrangers and when the Managing Agents shall
have been notified by each of the Banks that such Bank has executed it and
thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower, each
of the Managing Agents, each of the Facility Agents, each of the Arrangers and

                 ------------------------------------------------
Bank may, at any time, by notice substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto
(each, a "Notice of Assignment and Acceptance") delivered to the Administrative
Agent for its acceptance and recording, together with a recording fee in the
amount of $3,000, assign all or any part of its rights and obligations and
delegate its duties under this Agreement (A) to any other Bank or any affiliate

Letter, dated as of June 8, 1994), except (i) through a coordinated pooled
syndication organized by the Arrangers and (ii) to any affiliate of such Bank
which actually controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with such
Bank or to any Federal Reserve Bank.

          (b)  Any Bank may at any time sell or grant participations in its
Commitment, or the obligations owing to or from any Person existing under this
Agreement; provided, however, that (i) as between such Bank and the Borrower,
           --------  -------
the existence of such participations shall not give rise to any direct rights or
obligations between the Borrower and the participants; (ii) such Bank shall
remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of
such obligations; (iii) the Borrower, the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents
and the other Banks shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in

(iv) no such sale or grant of a participation shall, without the consent of the
Borrower, require the Borrower to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to qualify the Commitments or the
Loans under the securities laws of any state.

          (c)  If an assignment is made by any Bank in accordance with the
provisions of paragraph (a) above, upon acceptance and recording by the
Administrative Agent, and approval by the Borrower, where applicable, of each
Notice of Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee thereunder shall become a
party to this Agreement and the Borrower shall release and discharge the
assigning Bank from its duties, liabilities or obligations under this Agreement
to the extent the same are so assigned and delegated by such Bank, provided that
                                                                   --------
no such consent, release or discharge shall have effect until the Borrower shall
have received a fully executed copy of the Notice of Assignment and Acceptance
relating to such assignment and (ii) Schedule II shall be deemed amended to give
effect to such assignment.  The Borrower agrees that each such disposition will
give rise to a direct obligation of the Borrower to any such assignee.

          (d)  The Borrower authorizes each Bank to disclose to any prospective
assignee or participant and any assignee or participant any and all financial
information in such Bank's possession concerning the Borrower and this
Agreement; provided, however, that, prior to any such disclosure, the assignee
           --------  -------
or participant or proposed assignee or participant shall agree to preserve the
confidentiality of any confidential information relating to the Borrower

          (e)  Any Bank which sells or grants participations in any Loans or its
Commitment may not grant to the participants the right to vote other than on
amendments, consents, waivers, modifications or other actions which change the
principal amount of, postpone the scheduled maturity of, or decrease the
interest rates applicable to, any Loans under, or increase the amount of, such
Commitment (except with respect to participating Affiliates actually controlled
by, controlling or under common control with, such Bank); provided, however,
                                                          --------  -------
that as between the Bank and the Borrower, only the Bank shall be entitled to
cast such votes.

          (f)  No participant in any Bank's rights or obligations shall be
entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.5 or 5.7 than such Bank
would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights participated, and
no participation shall be sold or granted to any Person as to which the events
specified in Section 5.6 have occurred on or before the date of participation.

          (g)  The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its address referred
to in Section 13.2 a copy of each Notice of Assignment and Acceptance received
by it and a register, containing the terms of each Notice of Assignment and
Acceptance, for the recordation of the names and addresses of each Bank and the
Commitment of, and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Bank from time
to time (the "Register").  The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and
binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Banks,
the Facility Agents and the Managing Agents may treat each Person whose name is
recorded in the Register as a Bank hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement.
The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, any Bank, any
Facility Agent or any Managing Agent at any reasonable time and from time to
time upon reasonable prior notice.

  Commitment").

            (b)  Evidence of Debt.  (i)  Each Bank shall maintain in accordance

  hereunder. 

            (ii)  The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant
  to Section 10.7(g) shall include a "Subsidiary Loan control account" for each
  Subsidiary Borrower and for each Bank, in which accounts shall be recorded

<PAGE>








            (b)  The Administrative Agent shall give to each Bank prompt notice
  (but in any event on the same day) of its receipt of a Notice of Borrowing
  and, if Eurodollar Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of
  Borrowing, upon its determination thereof, notice of the applicable interest
  rate under Section 3.2.  Each Bank shall, before 11:00 A.M. (or in the case
  of a Subsidiary Borrowing being made on the same day, before 12:00 noon)
  (New York City time) on the date of the proposed Subsidiary Borrowing, make
  available for the account of its Applicable Lending Office to the
  Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.2, in
  immediately available funds, such Bank's Ratable Portion of each such
  proposed Subsidiary Borrowing.  After the Administrative Agent's receipt of
  such funds and upon fulfillment of the applicable conditions set forth in
  Article IV, the Administrative Agent will make such funds available to the
  Subsidiary Borrowers at the Administrative Agent's aforesaid address.

            (c)  Each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.2 shall be
  irrevocable and binding on the applicable Subsidiary Borrower.  In the case
  of a proposed Subsidiary Borrowing comprised of Eurodollar Rate Loans to any
  Subsidiary Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrower requesting such Subsidiary
  Borrowing shall indemnify each Bank against any loss, cost or expense
  incurred by such Bank as a result of any failure to fulfill on or before the
  date specified in such Notice of Borrowing the applicable conditions set
  forth in Article IV, including, without limitation, any loss (excluding loss
  of the margin payable in accordance with Section 3.2 on the amount of
  principal not borrowed as a result of such failure), cost or expense incurred
  by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds
  acquired by such Bank to fund any Eurodollar Rate Loan to be made by such
  Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower as part of any such proposed Subsidiary
  Borrowing when such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower, as a
  result of such failure, is not made on such date.

            (d)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
  from a Bank prior to the date of any proposed Subsidiary Borrowing pursuant
  to this Section 2.2 that such Bank will not make available to the
  Administrative Agent such Bank's Ratable Portion of such Subsidiary
  Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Bank has made such
  Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such
  Subsidiary Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the
  Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to
  the applicable Subsidiary Borrower on such date a corresponding amount.  If
  and to the extent that such Bank shall not have so made such Ratable Portion
  available 





























                                           -17-





<PAGE>








  to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent has so made
  available such amount, such Bank and such Subsidiary Borrower severally agree
  to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding
  amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount
  is made available to such Subsidiary Borrower until the date such amount is
  repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Subsidiary
  Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Subsidiary Loans
  comprising such Subsidiary Borrowings and (ii) in the case of such Bank, the
  Federal Funds Rate.  If such Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent
  such corresponding amount, such amount so repaid shall constitute such Bank's
  Subsidiary Loan as part of any such Subsidiary Borrowing for purposes of this
  Agreement.  If such Subsidiary Borrower shall repay to the Administrative
  Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Bank of
  any obligation it may have to the Subsidiary Borrowers hereunder.

            (e)  The failure of any Bank to make any Subsidiary Loan to be made
  by it to any Subsidiary Borrower shall not relieve any other Bank of its
  obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Subsidiary Loan to such Subsidiary
  Borrower on the date of such Subsidiary Borrowing, but no Bank shall be
  responsible for the failure of any other Bank to make the Subsidiary Loan to
  be made by such other Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower.

            2.3.  Repayment of the Subsidiary Loans.  (a)  Each Subsidiary
                  ---------------------------------
  Borrower shall pay the principal amount of the Subsidiary Loans of each Bank
  to such Subsidiary Borrower in quarterly installments on January 1, April 1,
  July 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing July 1, 1997, and ending on
  July 1, 2002, in an amount equal to such Bank's Ratable Portion of the
  quarterly amount set forth in column (y) in Schedule 2.3 hereto opposite the
  period specified in column (x) in such Schedule during which such date
  occurs.

            (b)  Each Subsidiary Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal
  amount of the Subsidiary Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower (together with all
  accrued and unpaid interest thereon) in full on the Termination Date.

            2.4.  Optional Prepayments of the Subsidiary Loans.  Each
                  --------------------------------------------
  Subsidiary Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days' prior notice (or
  at least one Business Day's prior notice in the case of Base Rate Loans) to
  the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date and aggregate principal
  amount of the prepayment of, and if such notice is given by any Subsidiary
  Borrower such Subsidiary Borrower 






























                                           -18-

  shall, prepay the outstanding principal amount of the Subsidiary Loans made
  to such Subsidiary Borrower, in whole or ratably in part, together with
  accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount
  prepaid; provided, however, that each Subsidiary Borrower shall indemnify the
           --------  -------
  Banks pursuant to Section 10.4(c) in the event that any prepayment of any
  Eurodollar Rate Loans made by such Subsidiary Borrower shall be made on a day
  other than the last day of an Interest Period for such Subsidiary Loans. 
  Amounts borrowed under Section 2.1 and prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.5
  may not be reborrowed.  Any partial prepayment may be allocated to scheduled
  installments of the Subsidiary Loans in any manner requested by the
  appropriate Subsidiary Borrower. 

            2.5.  Mandatory Prepayments of the Subsidiary Loans of the MSubs. 
                  ----------------------------------------------------------
  The Subsidiary Loans of an MSub shall be due and payable on the date on which
  such MSub ceases to be a direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiary of Viacom
  or Viacom International.

                    CONVERSION, INTEREST, PAYMENTS, FEES, ETC.

            3.1.  Conversion/Continuation Option.  Any Subsidiary Borrower may
                  ------------------------------
  elect (i) at any time to convert Base Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower
  or any portion thereof to Eurodollar Rate Loans or (ii) at the end of any
  Interest Period with respect thereto, to convert Eurodollar Rate Loans to
  such Subsidiary Borrower or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans, or to
  continue such Eurodollar Rate Loans or any portion thereof as Eurodollar Rate
  Loans for an additional Interest Period; provided, however, that the
                                           --------  -------
  aggregate of the Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Subsidiary Borrower so
  converted or so continued for each Interest Period must be in the amount of
  $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof.  Each
  such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit E hereto (a
  "Notice of Conversion or Continuation") and shall be made by giving the
  Administrative Agent at least one Business Day's, in the case of a conversion
  to a Base Rate Loan, and three Business Days', in the case of a conversion to
  or a continuation of a Eurodollar Rate Loan, prior written notice thereof
  specifying (A) the amount and type of conversion or continuation, (B) in the
  case of a conversion to or a continuation of Eurodollar Rate Loans, the
  Interest Period therefor, and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of
  conversion (which date shall be a Business Day and, if a conversion from a
  Eurodollar Rate Loan, shall also be the last day of the Interest Period
  therefor).  The Administrative Agent shall promptly (but in 





























                                           -19-





<PAGE>








  any event on the same day) notify each Bank of its receipt of a Notice of
  Conversion or Continuation and of the contents thereof.  Notwithstanding the
  foregoing, no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar
  Rate Loans of any Subsidiary Borrower, and no continuation in whole or in
  part of Eurodollar Rate Loans of any Subsidiary Borrower upon the expiration
  of any Interest Period therefor, shall be permitted at any time at which an
  Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.  If, within the time
  period required under the terms of this Section 3.1, the Administrative Agent
  does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from any Subsidiary
  Borrower containing an election to continue all or any portion of the
  Eurodollar Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower for an additional Interest
  Period or to convert all or any portion of such Subsidiary Loans, then, upon
  the expiration of the Interest Period therefor, such Subsidiary Loans or the
  portions thereof for which an election to continue or convert has not been
  made will be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans.  Each Notice of
  Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable.

            3.2.  Interest.  Each Subsidiary Borrower shall pay interest on the
                  --------
  unpaid principal amount of each Subsidiary Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower
  from the date thereof until the principal amount thereof shall be paid in
  full, at the following rates per annum:

            (a)  Base Rate Loans.  For Base Rate Loans, at a rate per annum
                 ---------------
       equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time to time, payable
       quarterly in arrears on the last day of each September, December, March
       and June, on the Termination Date and on the date any Base Rate Loan is
       converted or paid in full.

            (b)  Eurodollar Rate Loans.  For Eurodollar Rate Loans, at a rate
                 ---------------------
       per annum equal at all times during the applicable Interest Period for
       each Eurodollar Rate Loan to the sum of the Eurodollar Rate for such
       Interest Period plus the Applicable Eurodollar Rate Margin, payable in
       arrears (i) on the last day of such Interest Period and (ii) if such
       Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on each day
       during such Interest Period that occurs every three months from the
       first day of such Interest Period.

            (c)  Default Rate of Interest.  If any amount of principal of any
                 ------------------------
       Subsidiary Loan to any Subsidiary Borrower is not paid when due, whether
       at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the interest rate
       applicable to any such amount shall be increased by 2.00% per annum,
       payable on demand, and if any 





























                                           -20-





<PAGE>








       interest, fee or other amount payable by any Subsidiary Borrower
       hereunder is not paid when due, such amount shall bear interest at a
       rate per annum equal at all times to the Base Rate in effect from time
       to time plus 2% per annum payable on demand.

            3.3.  Interest Rate Determination and Protection.  (a)  In the
                  ------------------------------------------
  Event that the Eurodollar Rate is not available from the Telerate Page, the
  Eurodollar Rate for each Interest Period for Eurodollar Rate Loans to any
  Subsidiary Borrower shall be determined by the Administrative Agent on the
  basis of applicable rates furnished to and received by the Administrative
  Agent from the Reference Banks two Business Days before such Interest Period. 
  Each Reference Bank agrees to furnish to the Administrative Agent timely
  information for the purpose of determining each Eurodollar Rate.  If any of
  the Reference Banks shall not furnish such timely information to the
  Administrative Agent for the purpose of determining any such interest rate,
  the Administrative Agent shall determine such interest rate on the basis of
  timely information furnished by the other Reference Bank or Reference Banks.

            (b)  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the
  Subsidiary Borrowers and the Banks of the applicable interest rate determined
  by the Administrative Agent for purposes of Section 3.2(a) or (b), and the
  applicable rate, if any, furnished by each Reference Bank for the purpose of
  determining the applicable interest rate under Section 3.2(b).

            (c)  If, with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans to any Subsidiary
  Borrower, the Majority Banks determine in good faith and notify the
  Administrative Agent that the Eurodollar Rate for any Interest Period will
  not adequately reflect the cost to such Banks of making such Subsidiary Loans
  to such Subsidiary Borrower or funding or maintaining their respective
  Eurodollar Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower for such Interest Period,
  the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify such Subsidiary Borrower
  and the Banks, whereupon

            (i)  each Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Subsidiary Borrower will
       automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period
       therefor, convert into a Base Rate Loan unless the Majority Banks notify
       the Administrative Agent that the circumstances causing such conversion
       no longer exist and such Subsidiary Borrower delivers a timely Notice of
       Conversion or Continuation with respect to such Subsidiary Loans; and

            (ii)  the obligations of the Banks to make Eurodollar Rate Loans to
       such Subsidiary Borrower or to convert Subsidiary Loans to such
       Subsidiary Borrower into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until
       the Administrative Agent shall notify such Subsidiary Borrower and the
       Banks that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.

            3.4.  Fees.  (a)  Each Subsidiary Borrower will pay on the last day
                  ----
  of each Fiscal Quarter to each of the Banks in arrears a fee (the "Commitment

  and (C) such Bank shall use its reasonable best efforts to designate another
  of its then existing offices as its Applicable Lending Office with respect to
  the Subsidiary Loans of such Subsidiary Borrower if the making of such
  designation would, without any detrimental effect to such Bank, avoid the
  need for, or reduce the amount of, future increased costs which are probable
  of being incurred by such Bank.  The amount of increased costs payable by any
  Subsidiary Borrower to any Bank as stated in any such certificate delivered
  to such Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the
  provisions of this Section 3.5(a) shall be conclusive and binding for all
  purposes, absent manifest error.  In

  determining any such amount, such Bank may use reasonable averaging and
  attribution methods.  If such Subsidiary Borrower so notifies the
  Administrative Agent within five Business Days after receipt of any
  certificate delivered to such Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the provisions
  of this Section 3.5(a), such Subsidiary Borrower may either (x) prepay in
  full all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower then
  outstanding in accordance with Section 3.8 and, additionally, reimburse such
  Bank for such increased cost in accordance with this Section 3.5(a) or
  (y) convert all Eurodollar Rate Loans of all Banks to such Subsidiary
  Borrower then outstanding into Base Rate Loans in accordance with Section 3.1
  and, additionally, reimburse such Bank for such increased cost in accordance
  with this Section 3.5(a).

            (b)  If any Bank shall be required under Regulation D to maintain
  reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including
  Eurocurrency Liabilities with respect to the Subsidiary Loans of any
  Subsidiary Borrower, then (i) such Bank shall, within 60 days after the end
  of any Interest Period with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loan to such
  Subsidiary Borrower during which such Bank was so required to maintain such
  reserves, deliver to such Subsidiary Borrower and the Administrative Agent a
  certificate stating (A) that such Bank was required to maintain reserves and
  as a result such Bank incurred additional costs in connection with making
  Eurodollar Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower, (B) in reasonable detail,
  such Bank's computations of the amount of additional interest payable by such
  Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.5(b)(ii) and
  (C) that it is such Bank's customary practice, from and after the date of
  this Agreement, to charge its borrowers for reserves so maintained by it, and
  (ii) such Subsidiary Borrower shall, promptly upon receipt of any such
  certificate, pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Bank,
  additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Rate
  Loan of such Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower outstanding during the Interest
  Period with respect to which the above-referenced certificate was delivered
  to such Subsidiary Borrower, at a rate per annum equal to the difference
  obtained by subtracting (x) the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period from
  (y) the rate obtained by dividing such Eurodollar Rate by a percentage equal
  to 100% minus the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage of such Bank for such
          -----
  Interest Period.  The amount of interest payable by such Subsidiary Borrower
  to any Bank as stated in any certificate delivered to such Subsidiary
  Borrower and the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this
  Section 3.5(b) shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent
  manifest error.

            (c)  The payments required under Sections 3.5(a) and (b) are in
  addition to any other payments and indemnities required under this Agreement.

            3.6.  Illegality.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
                  ----------
  Agreement, if the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation
  of any law or regulation, in each case after the date hereof, shall make it
  unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert
  that it is unlawful, for any Bank or its Eurodollar Lending Office to make
  Eurodollar Rate Loans to any Subsidiary Borrower or to continue to fund or
  maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans to any Subsidiary Borrower, then, on notice
  thereof and demand therefor by such Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower through
  the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of such Bank to make or to
  continue Eurodollar Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower and to convert
  Base Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower into Eurodollar Rate Loans shall
  be suspended until such Bank through the Administrative Agent shall notify
  such Subsidiary Borrowers that the circumstances causing such suspension no
  longer exist and (ii) such Subsidiary Borrower shall forthwith prepay in full
  all Eurodollar Rate Loans of such Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower then
  outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless such Subsidiary
  Borrower, within five Business Days of such notice and demand, converts all
  Eurodollar Rate Loans of all Banks to such Subsidiary Borrower then
  outstanding into Base Rate Loans in accordance with the notice periods of
  Section 3.1; provided, however, that before making any such demand, each Bank
               --------  -------
  agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to designate another of its then
  existing offices as its Applicable Lending Office with respect to the
  Subsidiary Loans of such Subsidiary Borrower if the making of such a
  designation would, without any detrimental effect to such Bank, cause the
  making of Eurodollar Rate Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower to not be subject
  to this Section 3.6.

            3.7.  Capital Adequacy.  If any Bank shall, at any time, reasonably
                  ----------------
  determine that (a) the adoption (i) after the date of this Agreement, of any
  capital adequacy guidelines or (ii) at any time, of any other applicable law,
  government rule, regulation or order regarding capital adequacy of banks or
  bank holding companies, (b) any change in (I) any of the foregoing or (II)
  the interpretation or administration of any of the foregoing by any
  Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency or (c) compliance
  with any policy, guideline, directive or request regarding capital adequacy
  (whether or not having the force of law and whether or not failure to comply
  therewith would be unlawful) of any Governmental Authority, central bank or
  comparable agency, would have the effect of 






























                                           -25-





<PAGE>








  reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Bank to a level below that
  which such Bank could have achieved but for such adoption, change or
  compliance (taking into consideration the policies of such Bank with respect
  to capital adequacy in effect immediately before such adoption, change or
  compliance) and (x) such reduction is as a consequence of the Subsidiary
  Commitment with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower of, or the making,
  converting or continuing of any Subsidiary Loans to any Subsidiary Borrower
  by, such Bank hereunder and (y) such reduction is reasonably deemed by such
  Bank to be material, then (1) such Bank shall deliver to such Subsidiary
  Borrower and the Administrative Agent a certificate stating the reduction in
  the rate of return such Bank will in the future suffer as a result of its
  Subsidiary Commitment with respect to such Subsidiary Borrower or the making,
  converting or continuing any Subsidiary Loans to any Subsidiary Borrower by
  it to such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder and (2) such Subsidiary Borrower
  shall, within 30 days after its receipt of such certificate, at its sole
  option, either (A) pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such
  Bank from time to time as specified by such Bank such amount as shall be
  sufficient to compensate such Bank for such reduced return, or (B) replace
  such Bank in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.10; provided,
                                                               --------
  however, that if such Subsidiary Borrower does not exercise the option
  -------
  specified in clause (B) above within 30 days after receipt of the certificate
  referred to above, then (1) such Bank shall deliver to such Subsidiary
  Borrower and the Administrative Agent a second certificate stating the
  reduction in the rate of return of such Bank and (2) such Subsidiary Borrower
  shall promptly pay, as specified by such Bank, to the Administrative Agent
  for the account of such Bank amounts sufficient to compensate such Bank for
  the reduction in its rate of return.  The amount stated in any certificate
  delivered to such Subsidiary Borrower pursuant to the provisions of this
  Section 3.7 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
  error.  In determining any such amount, such Bank may use reasonable
  averaging and attribution methods.  The payments required under this
  Section 3.7 are in addition to any other payments and indemnities required
  hereunder.

            3.8.  Payments and Computations.  (a)  Each Subsidiary Borrower
                  -------------------------
  shall make each payment payable by it hereunder not later than 11:00 A.M.
  (New York City time) on the day when due, in Dollars, to the Administrative
  Agent at its address referred to in Section 10.2 in immediately available
  funds without set-off or counterclaim.  The Administrative Agent will
  promptly thereafter (but in any event on the same day) cause to be
  distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or
  fees 





























                                           -26-





<PAGE>








  ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 3.5, 3.6 or 3.7) to
  the Banks for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices with
  respect to such Subsidiary Borrower, and like funds relating to the payment
  of any other amount payable to any Bank to such Bank for the account of its
  Applicable Lending Office with respect to such Subsidiary Borrower, in each
  case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  Payment
  received by the Administrative Agent after 11:00 A.M. (New York City time)
  shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day; provided, however,
                                                           --------  -------
  that the Administrative Agent shall use its reasonable best efforts to invest
  any amounts so received by the Administrative Agent in overnight investments
  satisfactory to the Subsidiary Borrowers, and any earnings on any such
  investments shall be for the applicable Subsidiary Borrower's account and may
  be credited against any interest payable hereunder during such period.

            (b)  All computations of the Commitment Fee or of interest based on
  the rate of interest specified in clause (a) of the definition of Base Rate
  and of fees shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year
  of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest
  based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate shall be made by the
  Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days, in each case for the
  actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day)
  occurring in the period for which such interest and fees are payable.  All
  computations of the Commitment Fee shall be based on the aggregate average
  daily unused Subsidiary Commitment of each Bank.  Each determination by the
  Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and
  binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

            (c)  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a
  day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next
  succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be
  included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may
  be.

            (d)  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice
  from any Subsidiary Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to
  the Banks hereunder that such Subsidiary Borrower will not make such payment
  in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Subsidiary Borrower
  has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and
  the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be
  distributed to each Bank on such due date an amount equal to the amount then
  due such Bank.  If and to the extent that such 






























                                           -27-





<PAGE>








  Subsidiary Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the
  Administrative Agent, each Bank shall repay to the Administrative Agent
  forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Bank together with
  interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to
  such Bank until the date such Bank repays such amount to the Administrative
  Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

            3.9.  Sharing of Payments, Etc.  If any Bank shall obtain any
                  -------------------------
  payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of
  set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Subsidiary Loans made by it to any
  Subsidiary Borrower (other than pursuant to Section 3.5, 3.6 or 3.7) in
  excess of its Ratable Portion of payments on account of the Subsidiary Loans
  to such Subsidiary Borrower obtained by all the Banks, such Bank shall
  forthwith purchase from the other Banks such participations in such
  Subsidiary Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing
  Bank to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided,
                                                              --------
  however, that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
  -------
  recovered from such purchasing Bank, such purchase from each Bank shall be
  rescinded and each such Bank shall repay to the purchasing Bank the purchase
  price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such
  Bank's ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such
  Bank's required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the
  purchasing Bank) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the
  purchasing Bank in respect of the total amount so recovered.  Each Subsidiary
  Borrower agrees that any Bank so purchasing a participation from another Bank
  pursuant to this Section 3.9 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law,
  exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of set-off) with
  respect to such participation as fully as if such Bank were the direct
  creditor of such Subsidiary Borrower in the amount of such participation.

            3.10.  Replacement Banks.  Upon the election of any Subsidiary
                   -----------------
  Borrower to replace any Bank pursuant to the provisions of
  Section 3.5(a)(B)(2) or 3.7(2)(B), such Subsidiary Borrower shall provide to
  the Administrative Agent a notice setting forth the replacement Bank or
  Banks, and the Bank being so replaced shall take all actions as may be
  necessary to transfer to such replacement Bank or Banks all of the rights and
  obligations of such Bank hereunder (with appropriate provisions for other
  amounts due to the Bank being replaced) and such replacement Bank or Banks
  shall pay to the Bank being so replaced the amount outstanding of all
  Subsidiary Loans made by such Bank to such Subsidiary Borrower hereunder, all
  as though such replacement Bank or Banks were an assignee or assignees of

  shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise
  of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
  exercise of any other right.  The remedies herein provided are cumulative and
  not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.

            10.4.  Costs; Expenses; Indemnities.  (a)  Each Subsidiary Borrower
                   ----------------------------
  agrees to pay on demand all costs and expenses in connection with the
  preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification and amendment
  of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the other documents to be
  delivered hereunder or thereunder, including, without limitation, the
  specified reasonable fees and out-of-pocket expenses of one counsel to the
  Managing Agents and the Facility Agents and the Arrangers with respect
  thereto and with respect to advising the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents
  and the Arrangers as to their rights and responsibilities under this
  Agreement, and all costs and expenses of the Managing Agents, the Facility
  Agents and the Banks (including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees
  and expenses) in connection with the enforcement (whether through
  negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of this Agreement, the other
  Loan Documents and the other documents to be delivered hereunder and
  thereunder.

            (b)  Each Subsidiary Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold
  harmless each of the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents, the Arrangers and
  the Banks and their respective affiliates and their respective directors,
  officers, attorneys, agents, employees, successors and assigns (each, an
  "Indemnified Person") from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
  losses, damages, penalties, actions, claims, judgments, suits, costs,
  expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (including,
  without limitation, fees and disbursements of counsel of the Managing Agents,
  the Facility Agents, the Arrangers or the Banks) which may be incurred by or
  asserted or awarded against any Indemnified Person, in each case arising in
  any manner of or in connection with or by reason of the Merger, the Merger
  Agreement, the Tender Offer, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents, the
  Subsidiary Commitments or any undertakings in connection therewith, or the
  proposed or actual application of the proceeds of the Subsidiary Loans (all
  of the foregoing collectively, the "Indemnified Liabilities") and will
  reimburse each Indemnified Person on a current basis for all expenses
  (including counsel fees as they are incurred by such party) in connection
  with investigating, preparing or defending any such action, claim or suit,
  whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation
  irrespective of whether such Indemnified Person is designated a party 






























                                           -43-

  thereto; provided that no Subsidiary Borrower shall have any liability
           --------
  hereunder to any Indemnified Person with respect to Indemnified Liabilities
  which are determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of
  competent jurisdiction to have arisen primarily from the gross negligence or
  willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person; and provided further, that if
                                                     -------- -------
  the Subsidiary Borrowers have determined in good faith that such Indemnified
  Liabilities were primarily the result of such Indemnified Person's gross
  negligence or willful misconduct, they shall not be obligated to pay such
  Indemnified Liabilities until a court of competent jurisdiction has
  determined whether such Indemnified Person acted with gross negligence or
  willful misconduct.  If for any reason the foregoing indemnification is
  unavailable to an Indemnified Person or insufficient to hold an Indemnified
  Person harmless, then each Subsidiary Borrower shall contribute to the amount
  paid or payable by such Indemnified Person as a result of any Indemnified
  Liability in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
  relative benefits received by such Subsidiary Borrower and each Managing
  Agent, each Facility Agent, each Arranger and each Bank, but also the
  relative fault of such Subsidiary Borrower and each Managing Agent, each
  Facility Agent, each Arranger and each Bank, as well as any other relevant
  equitable considerations.  The foregoing indemnity shall be in addition to
  any rights that any Indemnified Person may have at common law or otherwise,
  including, but not limited to, any right to contribution.

            (c)  If any Bank receives any payment of principal of, or is
  subject to a conversion of, any Eurodollar Rate Loan of any Subsidiary
  Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period relating to such
  Subsidiary Loan, as a result of any payment or conversion made by any
  Subsidiary Borrower or acceleration of the maturity of the amounts due under
  this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1 or for any other reason, such
  Subsidiary Borrower shall, upon demand by such Bank (with a copy of such
  demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the
  account of such Bank any amounts required to compensate such Bank for any
  additional losses, costs or expenses which it may reasonably incur as a
  result of such payment or conversion, including, without limitation, any loss
  (excluding loss of the margin payable in accordance with Section 3.2 on the
  amount of principal so paid, or any loss), cost or expense incurred by reason
  of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by
  such Bank to fund or maintain such Subsidiary Loan.  The foregoing
  obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers contained in paragraphs (a), (b) and
  (c) of this Section 10.4, and the obligations of the Subsidiary Borrowers
  contained in Sections 3.5 and 3.7, shall survive the payment of the
  Subsidiary Loans.

            10.5.  Right of Set-Off.  Upon (i) the occurrence and during the
                   ----------------
  continuance of any Event of Default and (ii) the making of the request or the
  granting of the consent specified by Section 8.1 to authorize the
  Administrative Agent to declare all amounts under this Agreement due and
  payable pursuant to the provisions of Section 8.1 or the automatic
  acceleration of such amounts pursuant to the proviso to that Section, each
  Bank is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest
  extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general
  or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other
  indebtedness at any time owing by such Bank to or for the credit or the
  account of any Subsidiary Borrower against any and all of the obligations of
  such Subsidiary Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement
  irrespective of whether or not such Bank shall have made any demand under
  this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured.  Each Bank
  agrees promptly to notify such Subsidiary Borrower after any such set-off and
  application made by such Bank; provided, however, that the failure to give
                                 --------  -------
  such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
  The rights of each Bank under this Section 10.5 are in addition to any other
  rights and remedies (including, without limitation, any other rights of set-
  off) which such Bank may have.

            10.6.  Binding Effect.  This Agreement shall become effective when
                   --------------
  it shall have been executed by each of the Subsidiary Borrowers, each of the
  Managing Agents, each of the Facility Agents and each of the Arrangers and
  when the Managing Agents shall have been notified by each of the Banks that
  such Bank has executed it and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to
  the benefit of the Subsidiary Borrowers, each of the Managing Agents, each of
  the Facility Agents, each of the Arrangers and each of the Banks and their
  respective successors and assigns, except that (i) the Subsidiary Borrowers
  shall have no right to assign its rights hereunder or any interest herein
  without the prior written consent of the Banks and (ii) no Bank may sell,
  transfer, assign, pledge or grant participations in any of its Subsidiary
  Loans or any of its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with
  Section 10.7 or as expressly required hereunder.

            10.7.  Assignments and Participations; Additional Banks.  (a)  Any
                   ------------------------------------------------
  Bank may, at any time, with notice substantially in the form of Exhibit F
  hereto (each, a "Notice of Assignment and Acceptance") delivered to the
  Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording, together with a
  recording fee in the amount of $3,000, assign all or any part of its rights
  and obligations and

  delegate its duties under this Agreement (A) to any other Bank or any
  affiliate of any Bank which actually controls, is controlled by, or is under
  common control with such Bank or to any Federal Reserve Bank (in either case
  without limitation as to amount), or (B) with the prior consent of the
  Subsidiary Borrowers (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), to any
  other Person (but if in part, in a minimum amount that, taken together with
  amounts assigned to the same transferee under the Parent Facility, equals at
  least $25,000,000 or, if less, the balance of such Bank's Subsidiary
  Commitment); provided, however, that each assigning Bank must assign an
               --------  -------
  identical percentage of a Loan and its related Commitment and, in the case of
  any assignment of a Term Loan and the related Commitment, a uniform, and not
  a varying, percentage of each of its Subsidiary Loans and Subsidiary Loan
  Commitments under this Agreement and Term Loans and Term Loan Commitment
  under the Parent Facility; provided further, however, that no Bank may make
                             ----------------  -------
  any such assignment or delegation of, or sell or grant (as provided in
  paragraph (b) below) any participation in, any of its rights or duties under
  this Agreement until the one hundredth day after the Funding Date (or such
  other date as may be determined in accordance with the Syndication Letter,
  dated as of June 8, 1994), except (i) through a coordinated pooled
  syndication organized by the Arrangers and (ii) to any affiliate of such Bank
  which actually controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with
  such Bank or to any Federal Reserve Bank.

            (b)  Any Bank may at any time sell or grant participations in its
  Subsidiary Commitment with respect to any Subsidiary Borrower, or the
  obligations owing to or from any Person existing under this Agreement;
  provided, however, that (i) as between such Bank and such Subsidiary
  --------  -------
  Borrower, the existence of such participations shall not give rise to any
  direct rights or obligations between such Subsidiary Borrower and the
  participants; (ii) such Bank shall remain solely responsible to the other
  parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; (iii) such Subsidiary
  Borrower, the Managing Agents, the Facility Agents and the other Banks shall
  continue to deal solely and directly with such Bank in connection with such
  Bank's rights and obligations under this Agreement; and (iv) no such sale or
  grant of a participation shall, without the consent of such Subsidiary
  Borrower, require such Subsidiary Borrower to file a registration statement
  with the Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to qualify the
  Subsidiary Commitments with respect to such Subsidiary Borrower or the
  Subsidiary Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower under the securities laws of any
  state.

            (c)  If an assignment is made by any Bank in accordance with the
  provisions of paragraph (a) above, upon acceptance and recording by the
  Administrative Agent, and approval by the Subsidiary Borrowers, where
  applicable, of each Notice of Assignment and Acceptance, (i) the assignee
  thereunder shall become a party to this Agreement and the Subsidiary
  Borrowers shall release and discharge the assigning Bank from its duties,
  liabilities or obligations under this Agreement to the extent the same are so
  assigned and delegated by such Bank, provided that no such consent, release
                                       --------
  or discharge shall have effect until the Subsidiary Borrowers shall have
  received a fully executed copy of the Notice of Assignment and Acceptance
  relating to such assignment, and (ii) Schedule II shall be deemed amended to
  give effect to such assignment.  Each Subsidiary Borrower agrees that each
  such disposition will give rise to a direct obligation of any Subsidiary
  Borrower to any such assignee.

            (d)  Each Subsidiary Borrower authorizes each Bank to disclose to
  any prospective assignee or participant and any assignee or participant any
  and all financial information in such Bank's possession concerning such
  Subsidiary Borrower and this Agreement; provided, however, that, prior to any
                                          --------  -------
  such disclosure, the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or
  participant shall agree to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential
  information relating to such Subsidiary Borrower received by it from such
  Bank in accordance with Section 10.11.

            (e)  Any Bank which sells or grants participations in any
  Subsidiary Loans to any Subsidiary Borrower or its Subsidiary Commitment with
  respect to any Subsidiary Borrower may not grant to the participants the
  right to vote other than on amendments, consents, waivers, modifications or
  other actions which change the principal amount of, postpone the scheduled
  maturity of, or decrease the interest rates applicable to, any Subsidiary
  Loans to such Subsidiary Borrower under, or increase the amount of, such
  Subsidiary Commitment with respect to such Subsidiary Borrower (except with
  respect to participating Affiliates actually controlled by, controlling or
  under common control with, such Bank); provided, however, that as between the
                                         --------  -------
  Bank and such Subsidiary Borrower, only the Bank shall be entitled to cast
  such votes.

            (f)  No participant in any Bank's rights or obligations shall be
  entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 3.5 or 3.7 than such
  Bank would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights
  participated, and no participation shall be sold or granted to any Person as
  to which the events specified in Section 3.6 have occurred on or before the
  date of participation.

  Bank, any Facility Agent or any Managing Agent at any reasonable time and
  from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

  third party beneficiary or have any rights under or by virtue of this
  Agreement except that the Banks under the Parent Facility shall be third
  party beneficiaries of those provisions of this Agreement pursuant to which
  they are given the right to vote with respect to certain matters under this
  Agreement.

become insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or
should a receiver or trustee be appointed for all or any significant
part of any Loan Party's assets, and shall, to the fullest extent
permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the
case may be, if at any time payment and performance of this
Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to applicable law,
rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored or

Guarantor at such date and (y) the amount by which the present fair
salable value of the assets of the Guarantor (including, without
limitation, rights of subrogation, contribution, and similar rights)
at such date exceeds the amount that will be required to pay the
probable liability of the Guarantor on its debts, excluding debt in
respect of this Guarantee, as they become absolute and matured.

                                 --------  -------
  such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. 
  The rights of each Bank under this Section are in addition to other rights
  and remedies (including, without limitation, other rights of set-off) which
  such Bank may have.

            SECTION 9.  Continuing Guarantee; Transfer of Interest.  This
                        ------------------------------------------
  Guarantee is a continuing guaranty and shall (i) remain in full force and
  effect until indefeasible payment in full of the Obligations and all other
  amounts payable under this Guarantee, (ii) be binding upon the Guarantor, its
  successors and assigns, and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable
  by any Bank, Facility Agent, Managing Agent, Agent or Co-Agent, and their
  respective successors, transferees, and assigns.  Without limiting the
  generality of the foregoing clause (iii), any Bank may assign or otherwise
  transfer all or any part of its rights and obligations under the Subsidiary
  Facility in accordance therewith, and such other person or entity shall
  thereupon become vested with all the rights in respect thereof granted to
  such Bank herein or otherwise, subject, however, to the provisions of Article
  X of the Subsidiary Facility.

            SECTION 10.  Reinstatement.  This Guarantee shall remain in full
                         -------------
  force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by
  or against any Loan Party (as defined in the Subsidiary Facility) for
  liquidation or reorganization, should any Loan Party become insolvent or make
  an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be
  appointed for all or any significant part of any Loan Party's assets, and
  shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, continue to be

  effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and
  performance of this Obligations, or any part thereof, is, pursuant to
  applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or must otherwise be restored
  or returned by any obligee of  the Obligations, whether as a "voidable
  preference", "fraudulent conveyance", or otherwise, all as though such
  payment or performance had not been made.  In the event that any payment, or
  any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored, or returned, the
  Obligations shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and
  deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced,
  restored or returned.

            SECTION 11.  Limitation of Obligation.  The liability of the
                         ------------------------
  Guarantor under this Guarantee shall not exceed the greater of (i) 95% of the
  Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) of Guarantor on the date of delivery
  hereof and (ii) 95% of the Adjusted Net Assets (as defined below) of the
  Guarantor on the date of any payment hereunder; provided, that nothing in
                                                  --------
  this Section 11 shall be construed to limit the liability of the Guarantor
  under any other Loan Document to which it is a party.  "Adjusted Net Assets"
                                                          -------------------
  of any Guarantor at any date means the lesser of (x) the amount by which the
  fair value of the property of such Guarantor (including, without limitation,
  rights of subrogation, contribution, and similar rights) exceeds the total
  amount of liabilities, including, without limitation, contingent liabilities,
  but excluding liabilities under this Guarantee, of the Guarantor at such date
  and (y) the amount by which the present fair salable value of the assets of
  the Guarantor (including, without limitation, rights of subrogation,
  contribution, and similar rights) at such date exceeds the amount that will
  be required to pay the probable liability of the Guarantor on its debts,
  excluding debt in respect of this Guarantee, as they become absolute and
  matured.

            SECTION 12.  GOVERNING LAW.  THIS GUARANTEE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY,
                         -------------
  AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT
  REGARD TO THE PROVISIONS THEREOF RELATING TO CONFLICT OF LAWS.

            SECTION 13.  WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.  THE GUARANTOR WAIVES ALL RIGHT
                         --------------------
  TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING TO ENFORCE OR DEFEND ANY RIGHTS
  OR REMEDIES HEREUNDER, UNDER THE SUBSIDIARY FACILITY OR UNDER THE OTHER
  CREDIT DOCUMENTS RELATIVE TO EACH OF THE FOREGOING.

            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Guarantor has caused this Guarantee to be
  duly executed and delivered by its officer thereunto duly authorized as of
  the date first above written.
