AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO SCHEDULE 13D
-------------------------------
This Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D, dated June 12, 1992, as amended
by Amendment No. 1 thereto, dated June 3, 1993, and as further amended by
Amendment No. 2 thereto, dated December 13, 1993 (as so amended, the "Schedule
13D"), previously filed by Mel Karmazin with respect to the Class A Common
Stock, par value $.002 per share (the "Class A Shares"), of Infinity
Broadcasting Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer"), reports
certain transactions by Mel Karmazin involving Class A Shares and other
securities of the Issuer convertible into Class A Shares, and the aggregate
impact of such transactions on Mel Karmazin's interest in the securities
of the Issuer.
ITEM 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION.
Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding after the final
sentence thereof the following:
"On June 20, 1996, the Issuer, Westinghouse Electric Corporation
("Westinghouse") and R Acquisition Corp., a wholly owned subsidiary of
Westinghouse ("Mergersub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
as of such date (the "Merger Agreement"). Pursuant and subject to the terms of
the Merger Agreement, Mergersub will merge with and into the Issuer (the
"Merger"). In the Merger, each stockholder of the Issuer will exchange each
share of common stock of the Issuer held by such stockholder for 1.71 shares of
common stock of Westinghouse. Upon consummation of the Merger, the Issuer will
be a wholly owned subsidiary of Westinghouse. Upon consummation of the Merger,
the Class A Shares will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange, and will
become eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of
the Securities Exchange Act, as amended. Upon consummation of the Merger,
Westinghouse, as the sole stockholder of the Issuer, will have the right to
elect all the directors of the Issuer.
Consummation of the Merger is conditional upon, among other things, the
approval of the Merger by the Federal Communications Commission, the
stockholders of Westinghouse and the stockholders of the Issuer, and the
expiration of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.
A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 6 and is
incorporated herein by reference.

<PAGE> 5
In addition, on June 20, 1996, Westinghouse, the Principal Stockholders and
certain other stockholders of the Issuer entered into a Stockholder Agreement,
dated as of such date (the "Stockholder Agreement"). Pursuant and subject to
the terms of the Stockholder Agreement, the stockholders signatory thereto have
agreed to vote their shares of the Issuer's stock in favor of the Merger at the
meeting of the Issuer's stockholders called to approve the Merger (the
"Stockholders Meeting"). Karmazin has agreed under the Stockholder Agreement
not to dispose of, or agree to dispose of, any shares of the Issuer's stock
other than pursuant to the terms of the Merger, not to enter into any voting
arrangement in connection with any third party proposal to acquire the Issuer,
and not to convert any of his Class B Shares into Class A Shares, subject to
certain exceptions, including the right to transfer (i) 353,967 Class A Shares
to satisfy certain existing obligations, (ii) up to 750,000 Class B Shares to
satisfy certain existing obligations and (iii) up to that number of Class B
Shares as may be reasonably necessary to pay the reasonably estimated taxes
incurred by Karmazin in connection with any exercise of options as described in
the final sentence of this Item 5 (in each case so long as all such shares are
acquired by Karmazin pursuant to exercises of options with respect to Class B
Shares). It is Karmazin's present intention to exercise substantially fully
the transfer rights described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding
sentence. The Principal Stockholders together possess, through their
beneficial ownership of Class A Shares and Class B Shares, approximately 52.0%
of the combined voting power of all three classes of common stock of the Issuer
(approximately 64.9% of such voting power, assuming the exercise by Karmazin of
certain options and other rights to acquire additional shares of the Issuer's
common stock). Pursuant to the terms of the Stockholder Agreement, Karmazin
has agreed to exercise or convert such options and/or warrants for Class B
Shares as may be necessary to ensure that at the record date of the
Stockholders Meeting the signatory stockholders together will have the ability
to cause the approval of the Merger by the stockholders of the Issuer.
A copy of the Stockholder Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 7 and is
incorporated herein by reference."

ITEM 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT
TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER.
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding after the final
sentence thereof the following:
"The Merger Agreement is described in Item 4 above.
The Stockholder Agreement is described in Item 4 above."
ITEM 7. MATERIAL TO BE FILED AS EXHIBITS.
Item 7 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended by adding after Exhibit 5
thereof the following:
"Exhibit 6 -- Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of June 20, 1996,
among Westinghouse, Mergersub and the Issuer.
Exhibit 7 -- Stockholder Agreement dated as of June 20, 1996, among
Westinghouse, the Principal Stockholders and the other
signatories thereto."

together with the Company Class A Common Stock and the Company Class B Common
Stock, the "Company Common Stock"), in each case other than shares owned
directly or indirectly by Parent or the Company, will be converted into the
right to receive the Merger Consideration (as defined in Section 2.01(c));
WHEREAS as a condition of the willingness of Parent to enter into this
Agreement, those individuals and trusts set forth on Schedule A attached to the
Stockholder Agreement (as defined below), as the holders of all the outstanding
Company Class B Common Stock (the "Principal Stockholders"), have entered into
the Stockholder Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the "Stockholder

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreements contained in this Agreement, the parties agree as

substitution.
(c) If at any time prior to the Effective Time Parent creates a new
public holding company that becomes the sole shareholder of Parent (the
"Holding Company"), the Holding Company shall be substituted for Parent for all
purposes hereunder (and shares of common stock of the Holding Company will be
issued as the Merger Consideration in the same manner and amount as shares of
Parent Common Stock (as defined in Section 2.01(c)) would have otherwise been
issued hereunder), and the parties agree to execute an appropriate amendment to
this Agreement in order to reflect such substitution.

ARTICLE II
EFFECT OF THE MERGER ON THE CAPITAL STOCK OF THE
CONSTITUENT CORPORATIONS; EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES
SECTION 2.01. EFFECT ON CAPITAL STOCK. As of the Effective Time, by
virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder of any
shares of Company Common Stock or any shares of capital stock of Sub:
(a) CAPITAL STOCK OF SUB. Each issued and outstanding share of capital
stock of Sub shall be converted into and become one validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $1.00 per share,
of the Surviving Corporation.
(b) CANCELLATION OF TREASURY STOCK AND PARENT-OWNED STOCK. Each share
of Company Common Stock that is owned by the Company or by any subsidiary
of the
<PAGE> 9
5
Company and each share of Company Common Stock that is owned by Parent,
Sub or any other subsidiary of Parent shall automatically be cancelled and
retired and shall cease to exist, and no consideration shall be delivered
in exchange therefor.
(c) CONVERSION OF COMPANY COMMON STOCK. Subject to Section 2.02(e),
each issued and outstanding share of Company Common Stock (other than
shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.01(b)) shall be
converted into the right to receive 1.71 (the "Conversion Number") fully
paid and nonassessable shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share,
of Parent ("Parent Common Stock") (the "Merger Consideration"). As of the
Effective Time, all such shares of Company Common Stock shall no longer be
outstanding and shall automatically be cancelled and retired and shall
cease to exist, and each holder of a certificate representing any such
shares of Company Common Stock shall cease to have any rights with respect
thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration and any cash
in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued or paid
in consideration therefor upon surrender of such certificate in accordance
with Section 2.02, without interest.
SECTION 2.02. EXCHANGE OF CERTIFICATES. (a) EXCHANGE AGENT. As of the
Effective Time, Parent shall enter into an agreement with such bank or trust
company as may be designated by Parent (the "Exchange Agent"), which shall
provide that Parent shall deposit with the Exchange Agent as of the Effective
Time, for the benefit of the holders of shares of Company Common Stock, for
exchange in accordance with this Article II, through the Exchange Agent,
certificates representing the shares of Parent Common Stock (such shares of
Parent Common Stock, together with any dividends or distributions with respect
thereto with a record date after the Effective Time, and any cash payable in
lieu of any fractional shares of Parent Common Stock being hereinafter referred
to as the "Exchange Fund") issuable pursuant to Section 2.01 in exchange for
outstanding shares of Company Common Stock.
(b) EXCHANGE PROCEDURES. As soon as reasonably practicable after the
Effective Time, the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of record of a
certificate or certificates which immediately prior to the Effective Time
<PAGE> 10
6
represented outstanding shares of Company Common Stock (the "Certificates")
whose shares were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration
pursuant to Section 2.01, (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that
delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates
shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent and
shall be in such form and have such other provisions as Parent may reasonably
specify) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the
Certificates in exchange for the Merger Consideration. Upon surrender of a
Certificate for cancellation to the Exchange Agent or to such other agent or
agents as may be appointed by Parent, together with such letter of transmittal,
duly executed, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the
Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificate shall be entitled to receive in
exchange therefor a certificate representing that number of whole shares of
Parent Common Stock and cash, if any, which such holder has the right to
receive pursuant to the provisions of this Article II, and the Certificate so
surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. In the event of a transfer of
ownership of Company Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer
records of the Company, a certificate representing the proper number of shares
of Parent Common Stock may be issued to a person other than the person in whose
name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be
properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person
requesting such payment shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by
reason of the issuance of shares of Parent Common Stock to a person other than
the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of
Parent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as
contemplated by this Section 2.02, each Certificate shall be deemed at any time
after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive upon such
surrender the Merger Consideration and cash, if any, which the holder thereof
has the right to receive in respect of such Certificate pursuant to the
provisions of this Article II. No interest will be paid or will accrue on any
cash payable to holders of Certificates pursuant to the provisions of this
Article II.
(c) DISTRIBUTIONS WITH RESPECT TO UNEXCHANGED SHARES. No dividends or
other distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock with a record date
after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered
Certificate with respect to the shares of Parent Common
<PAGE> 11
7
Stock represented thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares
shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.02(e), and all such
dividends, other distributions and cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent
Common Stock shall be paid by Parent to the Exchange Agent and shall be
included in the Exchange Fund, in each case until the surrender of such
Certificate in accordance with this Article II. Subject to the effect of
applicable laws, following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be
paid to the holder of the certificate representing whole shares of Parent
Common Stock issued in exchange therefor, without interest, (i) at the time of
such surrender, the amount of any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of
Parent Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section
2.02(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date
after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of
Parent Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of
dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time
but prior to such surrender and with a payment date subsequent to such
surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of Parent Common Stock.
(d) NO FURTHER OWNERSHIP RIGHTS IN COMPANY COMMON STOCK. All shares of
Parent Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in
accordance with the terms of this Article II (including any cash paid pursuant
to this Article II) shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full
satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Company Common Stock
theretofore represented by such Certificates, SUBJECT, HOWEVER, to the
Surviving Corporation's obligation to pay any dividends or make any other
distributions with a record date prior to the Effective Time which may have
been declared or made by the Company on such shares of Company Common Stock in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement or prior to the date of this
Agreement and which remain unpaid at the Effective Time, and there shall be no
further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving
Corporation of the shares of Company Common Stock which were outstanding
immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time,
Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent
for any reason, they shall be cancelled and exchanged as provided in this
Article II, except as otherwise provided by law.
<PAGE> 12
8
(e) NO FRACTIONAL SHARES. (i) No certificates or scrip representing
fractional shares of Parent Common Stock shall be issued upon the surrender for
exchange of Certificates, no dividend or distribution of Parent shall relate to
such fractional share interests and such fractional share interests will not
entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any rights of a shareholder of Parent.
(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, each holder
of shares of Company Common Stock exchanged pursuant to the Merger who would
otherwise have been entitled to receive a fraction of a share of Parent Common
Stock (after taking into account all Certificates delivered by such holder)
shall receive, in lieu thereof, cash (without interest) in an amount equal to
such fractional part of a share of Parent Common Stock multiplied by the
closing price of a share of Parent Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange
("NYSE") Composite Transactions List (as reported by the WALL STREET JOURNAL
or, if not reported thereby, any other authoritative source) on the Closing
Date.
(f) TERMINATION OF EXCHANGE FUND. Any portion of the Exchange Fund
which remains undistributed to the holders of the Certificates for six months
after the Effective Time shall be delivered to Parent, upon demand, and any
holders of the Certificates who have not theretofore complied with this Article
II shall thereafter look only to Parent for payment of their claim for the
Merger Consideration, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of Parent Common
Stock and any dividends or distributions with respect to Parent Common Stock.
(g) NO LIABILITY. None of Parent, Sub, the Company or the Exchange
Agent shall be liable to any person in respect of any shares of Parent Common
Stock or any cash from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official
pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
SECTION 3.01. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY. Except as
set forth with respect to a specifically identified representation and warranty
on the Disclosure Schedule delivered by the Company to Parent prior to the

(a) ORGANIZATION, STANDING AND CORPORATE POWER. Each of the Company and
each of its significant subsidiaries (as defined in Section 8.03) is a

requisite corporate power and authority to carry on its business as now
being conducted. Each of the Company and each of its significant
subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to do business and is in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its business or the
ownership or leasing of its properties makes such qualification or
licensing necessary, other than in such jurisdictions where the failure to
be so qualified or licensed or to be in good standing individually or in
the aggregate would not have a material adverse effect (as defined in
Section 8.03(c)) on the Company. The Company has delivered to Parent prior
to the execution of this Agreement complete and correct copies of its
certificate of incorporation and by-laws and the certificates of
incorporation and by-laws (or comparable organizational documents) of its
significant subsidiaries, in each case as amended to date.
(b) SUBSIDIARIES. As of the date hereof, the Company Disclosure
Schedule sets forth a true and

complete list of each subsidiary of the Company. All the outstanding
shares of capital stock of each subsidiary of the Company have been
validly issued and are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned directly
or indirectly by the Company, free and clear of all pledges, claims,
liens, charges, encumbrances and security interests of any kind or nature
whatsoever (collectively, "Liens"). Except for the capital stock of its
subsidiaries, as of the date hereof, the Company does not own, directly or
indirectly, any capital stock or other ownership interest in any
corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture or
other entity.

share awards under the Company's Deferred Share Plan. Except as set forth
above, at the close of business on June 12, 1996, no shares of capital
stock or other voting securities of the Company were issued, reserved for
issuance or outstanding. There are no outstanding stock appreciation
rights or rights (other than the Employee Stock Options (as defined in

Company or any of its subsidiaries to issue, grant, extend or enter into
any such security, option, warrant, call, right, commitment, agreement,
arrangement or undertaking. There are no outstanding contractual
obligations of the Company or any of its subsidiaries to repurchase,

<PAGE> 16
12
Stock that in the aggregate constitutes a majority of the votes entitled
to be cast at the Company Stockholders Meeting (as defined in Section
5.01(b)).

corporate power and authority to enter into this Agreement and, subject to
the Company Stockholder Approval (as defined in Section 3.01(1)) with
respect to the Merger, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Company and
the consummation by the Company of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on
the part of the Company, subject, in the case of the Merger, to the
Company Stockholder Approval. This Agreement has been duly executed and
delivered by the Company and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of
the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.
The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement will not, conflict with, or result in any
violation of, or default (with or without notice or lapse of time, or
both) under, or give rise to a right of termination, cancellation or
acceleration of any obligation or loss of a material benefit under, or
result in the creation of any Lien upon any of the properties or assets of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries under, (i) the certificate of
incorporation or by-laws of the Company or the comparable organizational
documents of any of its subsidiaries, (ii) any loan or credit agreement,
note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement, instrument,
permit, concession, franchise or license applicable to the Company or any
of its subsidiaries or their respective properties or assets or (iii)
subject to the governmental filings and other matters referred to in the
following sentence, any judgment, order, decree, statute, law, ordinance,
rule or regulation applicable to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or
their respective properties or assets, other than, in the case of clauses
(ii) and (iii), any such conflicts, violations, defaults, rights, Liens,
judgments, orders, decrees, statutes, laws, ordinances, rules or
regulations that individually or in the aggregate would not (x) have a
material adverse effect on the Company, (y) impair the ability of the
Company
<PAGE> 17
13
to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect or
(z) delay in any material respect or prevent the consummation of any of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Stockholder
Agreement. No consent, approval, order or authorization of, or
registration, declaration or filing with, any Federal, state or local
government or any court, administrative or regulatory agency or commission
or other governmental authority or agency (a "Governmental Entity"), is

connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the
Company or the consummation by the Company of the transactions

Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the "HSR Act"); (2) the
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") of (A) a
proxy statement relating to the Company Stockholders Meeting (such proxy
statement, together with the proxy statement relating to the Parent
Shareholders Meeting (as defined in Section 5.01(c)), in each case as
amended or supplemented from time to time, the "Joint Proxy Statement"),
and (B) such reports under Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), as may be required
in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement; (3) the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the
Delaware Secretary of State and appropriate documents with the relevant

filings with and approvals of the Federal Communications Commission or any
successor entity (the "FCC") as may be required under the Communications
Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules, regulations and policies of the

connection with the transfer of the FCC Licenses (as defined in Section
3.01(s)) for the operation of the Licensed Facilities (as defined in
Section 3.01(s)); (5) such other filings and consents as may be required
under any environmental, health or safety law or regulation pertaining to

<PAGE> 18
14
contemplated by this Agreement; and (6) such consents, approvals, orders
or authorizations the failure of which to be made or obtained would not
reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.
(e) SEC DOCUMENTS; UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. The Company has filed all
required reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents with
the SEC since January 1, 1995 (the "SEC Documents"). As of their
respective dates, the SEC Documents complied in all material respects with
the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act"), or the Exchange Act, as the case may be, and the rules
and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder applicable to such SEC
Documents, and none of the SEC Documents when filed contained any untrue
statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein,
in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
Except to the extent that information contained in any SEC Document has
been revised or superseded by a later filed SEC Document, none of the SEC
Documents contains any untrue statement of a material fact or omits to
state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in
order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under
which they were made, not misleading. The financial statements of the
Company included in the SEC Documents comply as to form in all material
respects with applicable accounting requirements and the published rules
and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (except, in the
case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of the SEC)
applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except as may
be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present in all material
respects the consolidated financial position of the Company and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated
results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended
(subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments). Except as set forth in the Filed SEC Documents (as defined
in Section 3.01(g)), and except for liabilities and obligations incurred
in the
<PAGE> 19
15
ordinary course of business consistent with past practice since the date
of the most recent consolidated balance sheet included in the Filed SEC
Documents, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any
material liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether accrued,
absolute, contingent or otherwise) required by generally accepted
accounting principles to be recognized or disclosed on a consolidated
balance sheet of the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries or in the
notes thereto.
(f) INFORMATION SUPPLIED. None of the information supplied or to be
supplied by the Company specifically for inclusion or incorporation by
reference in (i) the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with
the SEC by Parent in connection with the issuance of Parent Common Stock
in the Merger (the "Form S-4") will, at the time the Form S-4 is filed
with the SEC, at any time it is amended or supplemented or at the time it
becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be
stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading
or (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement will, at the date it is first mailed to
the Company's stockholders or at the time of the Company Stockholders
Meeting, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state
any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to
make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which
they are made, not misleading. The Joint Proxy Statement will comply as to
form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations thereunder, except that no representation or
warranty is made by the Company with respect to statements made or
incorporated by reference therein based on information supplied by Parent
or Sub specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the
Joint Proxy Statement.
(g) ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES OR EVENTS. Except as disclosed in the
SEC Documents filed and publicly available prior to the date of this
Agreement (as amended to the date of this Agreement, the "Filed SEC
Documents"), since the date of the most recent audited financial
statements included in the Filed SEC Documents, the Company has conducted
its business only
<PAGE> 20
16
in the ordinary course, and there has not been (i) any material adverse
change (as defined in Section 8.03(c)) in the Company, (ii) any
declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend or other
distribution (whether in cash, stock or property) with respect to any of
the Company's capital stock, (iii) any split, combination or
reclassification of any of its capital stock or any issuance or the
authorization of any issuance of any other securities in respect of, in
lieu of or in substitution for shares of its capital stock, (iv) (x) any
granting by the Company to any executive officer or other key employee of
the Company of any increase in compensation, except for normal increases
in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice or as
required under employment agreements in effect as of the date of the most
recent audited financial statements included in the Filed SEC Documents or
(y) any granting by the Company to any such executive officer of any
increase in severance or termination pay, except as was required under any
employment, severance or termination agreements in effect as of the date
of the most recent audited financial statements included in the Filed SEC
Documents, (v) any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by
insurance, that has or could reasonably be expected to have a material
adverse effect on the Company or (vi) except insofar as may have been
disclosed in the Filed SEC Documents or required by a change in generally
accepted accounting principles, any change in accounting methods,
principles or practices by the Company materially affecting its assets,
liabilities or business.
(h) LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Filed SEC Documents, there
is no suit, action or proceeding (including any proceeding by or before
the FCC other than proceedings to amend FCC rules of general applicability
to the radio industry) pending or, to the knowledge of the Company,
threatened against or affecting the Company or any of its subsidiaries
that individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to (i)
have a material adverse effect on the Company, (ii) impair the ability of
the Company to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
material respect or (iii) delay in any material respect or prevent the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the Stockholder Agreement, nor is there any judgment, decree,
<PAGE> 21
17
injunction, rule or order of any Governmental Entity or arbitrator
outstanding against the Company or any of its subsidiaries having, or
which could reasonably be expected to have, any effect referred to in
clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above.
(i) ABSENCE OF CHANGES IN BENEFIT PLANS. Except (x) as disclosed in
the Filed SEC Documents or (y) for normal increases in the ordinary course
of business consistent with past practice or as required by law, since the
date of the most recent audited financial statements included in the Filed
SEC Documents, there has not been any adoption or amendment in any
material respect by the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries of
any collective bargaining agreement or any bonus, pension, profit sharing,
deferred compensation, incentive compensation, stock ownership, stock
purchase, stock option, phantom stock, retirement, vacation, severance,
disability, death benefit, hospitalization, medical or other material plan
providing material benefits to any current or former employee, officer or
director of the Company or any of its significant subsidiaries. Without
limiting the foregoing, except as disclosed in the Filed SEC Documents,
since the date of the most recent audited financial statements included in
the Filed SEC Documents, there has not been any change in any actuarial or
other assumption used to calculate funding obligations with respect to any
Pension Plan (as defined below), or in the manner in which contributions
to any Pension Plan are made or the basis on which such contributions are
determined. Except as disclosed in the Filed SEC Documents, there exist no
employment, consulting or severance agreements currently in effect between
the Company and any current or former employee, officer or director of the
Company providing for annual compensation or annual payments in excess of
$250,000.
(j) ERISA COMPLIANCE. (i) The Company has delivered or made available
to Purchaser each "employee pension benefit plan" (as defined in Section
3(2) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
("ERISA")) (a "Pension Plan"), each "employee welfare benefit plan" (as
defined in Section 3(1) of ERISA) (a "Welfare Plan"), each stock option,
stock purchase, deferred compensation plan or arrangement and each other
employee fringe benefit plan or arrangement maintained, contributed to or
required to be maintained
<PAGE> 22
18
or contributed to by the Company, any of its significant subsidiaries or
any other person or entity that, together with the Company, is treated as
a single employer under Section 414(b), (c), (m) or (o) of the Code (each,
a "Commonly Controlled Entity") which is currently in effect for the
benefit of any current or former employees, officers, directors or
independent contractors of the Company or any of its subsidiaries
(collectively, "Benefit Plans"). The Company has delivered or made
available to Parent true, complete and correct copies of (x) the most
recent annual report on Form 5500 filed with the Internal Revenue Service
with respect to each Benefit Plan (if any such report was required), (y)
the most recent summary plan description for each Benefit Plan for which
such summary plan description is required and (z) each currently effective
trust agreement, insurance or group annuity contract and each other
funding or financing arrangement relating to any Benefit Plan.
(ii) Each Benefit Plan has been administered in material compliance
with its terms, the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and all other
applicable laws and the terms of all applicable collective bargaining
agreements. To the knowledge of the Company, there are no investigations
by any governmental agency, termination proceedings or other claims
(except routine claims for benefits payable under the Benefit Plans),
suits or proceedings pending or threatened against any Benefit Plan or
asserting any rights or claims to benefits under any Benefit Plan that,
individually or in the aggregate, is reasonably likely to result in a
material adverse effect on the Company.
(iii) (1) There has been no application for waiver or waiver of the
minimum funding standards imposed by Section 412 of the Code with respect
to any Pension Plan and (2) no Pension Plan has or had at any time during
the current plan year an "accumulated funding deficiency" within the
meaning of Section 412(a) of the Code.
(iv) Each Pension Plan that is intended to be a tax-qualified plan has
been the subject of a determination letter from the Internal Revenue
Service to the effect that such Pension Plan and related trust is
qualified and exempt from Federal income taxes under Sections 401(a) and
501(a), respectively, of the Code;
<PAGE> 23
19
no such determination letter has been revoked, and, to the knowledge of
the Company, revocation has not been threatened; and such Pension Plan has
not been amended since the effective date of its most recent determination
letter in any respect that would adversely affect its qualification. The
Company has delivered or made available to Parent a copy of the most
recent determination letter received with respect to each Pension Plan for
which such a letter has been issued, as well as a copy of any pending
application for a determination letter. To the knowledge of the Company,
no event has occurred that could subject any Pension Plan to tax under
Section 511 of the Code.
(v) (1) Neither the Company nor any of its significant subsidiaries
has engaged in a "prohibited transaction" (as defined in Section 4975 of
the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) that involves the assets of any Benefit
Plan that is reasonably likely to subject the Company, any of its
significant subsidiaries, any employee of the Company or its significant
subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company, a non-employee trustee,
non-employee administrator or other non-employee fiduciary of any trust
created under any Benefit Plan to the tax or penalty on prohibited
transactions imposed by Section 4975 of the Code; (2) within the past five
years, no Pension Plan that is subject to Title IV of ERISA has been
terminated other than in a standard termination in accordance with Section
4041(b) of ERISA (a "Standard Termination") or, to the knowledge of the
Company, has been the subject of a "reportable event" (as defined in
Section 4043 of ERISA and the regulations thereunder) and no such Pension
Plan is reasonably expected to be terminated other than in a Standard
Termination; and (3) none of the Company, any of its significant
subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Company, any non-employee
trustee, non-employee administrator or other non-employee fiduciary of any
Benefit Plan has breached the fiduciary duty provisions of ERISA or any
other applicable law in a manner that, individually or in the aggregate,
is reasonably likely to, result in a material adverse effect on the
Company.
(vi) As of the most recent valuation date for each Pension Plan that
is a "defined benefit pension plan" (as defined in Section 3(35) of ERISA)
(a "Defined Benefit Plan"), there was not any amount of "unfunded benefit
liabilities" (based upon the plan's ongoing actuarial assumptions used for
funding purposes as set
<PAGE> 24
20
forth in the most recent actuarial report or valuation) under such Defined
Benefit Plan in excess of $5 million and the aggregate amount of all such
unfunded benefit liabilities under all such Defined Benefit Plans as of
such date did not exceed $20 million, and the Company is not aware of any
facts or circumstances that would materially change the funded status of
any such Defined Benefit Plan as of the date hereof available as of the
date hereof. The Company has furnished to Parent the most recent actuarial
report or valuation with respect to each Defined Benefit Plan. To the
knowledge of the Company, the information supplied to the plan actuary by
the Company and any of its subsidiaries for use in preparing those reports
or valuations was complete and accurate in all material respects.
(vii) No Commonly Controlled Entity has incurred any liability under
Title IV of ERISA (other than for contributions not yet due to a Defined
Benefit Plan and other than for the payment of premiums to the Pension
Benefit Guaranty Corporation not yet due), which liability, to the extent
currently due, has not been fully paid as of the date hereof and would
not, individually or in the aggregate, be reasonably likely to result in a
material adverse effect on the Company.
(viii) No Commonly Controlled Entity has engaged in a transaction
described in Section 4069 of ERISA that could subject the Company to
liability at any time after the date hereof.
(ix) No Commonly Controlled Entity has withdrawn from any
multiemployer plan where such withdrawal has resulted in any "withdrawal
liability" (as defined in Section 4201 of ERISA) that has not been fully
paid.
(x) Except as specifically provided in this Agreement, no employee of
the Company or any of its subsidiaries will be entitled to any additional
benefits or any acceleration of the time of payment or vesting of any
benefits under any Benefit Plan or under any employment, severance,
termination or compensation agreement or as a result of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.
(k) TAXES. (i) Each of the Company and its subsidiaries has filed all
tax returns and reports required to be filed by it or requests for
extensions
<PAGE> 25
21
to file such returns or reports have been timely filed, granted and have
not expired, except to the extent that such failures to file or to have
extensions granted that remain in effect individually or in the aggregate
would not have a material adverse effect on the Company. All returns filed
by the Company and each of its subsidiaries are complete and accurate in
all material respects to the knowledge of the Company. The Company and
each of its subsidiaries has paid (or the Company has paid on its behalf)
all taxes shown as due on such returns, and the most recent financial
statements contained in the Filed SEC Documents reflect an adequate
reserve for all taxes payable by the Company and its subsidiaries for all
taxable periods and portions thereof accrued through the date of such
financial statements.
(ii) No deficiencies for any taxes have been proposed, asserted or
assessed against the Company or any of its subsidiaries that are not
adequately reserved for, except for deficiencies that individually or in
the aggregate would not have a material adverse effect on the Company, and
no requests for waivers of the time to assess any such taxes have been
granted or are pending that individually or in the aggregate would have a
material adverse effect on the Company. The statute of limitations on
assessment or collection of any Federal income taxes due from the Company
or any of its subsidiaries has expired for all taxable years of the
Company or any of its subsidiaries through 1991. None of the assets or
properties of the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject to any tax
lien, other than any such liens for taxes which are not due and payable,
which may thereafter be paid without penalty or the validity of which are
being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which
adequate reserves are being maintained in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles ("Permitted Tax Liens").
(iii) As used in this Agreement, "taxes" shall include all Federal,
state and local income, franchise, use, property, sales, excise and other
taxes, tariffs or governmental charges of any nature whatsoever, domestic
or foreign, including any interest, penalties or additions with respect
thereto.

(l) VOTING REQUIREMENTS. The affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of the Company
Common Stock, voting as a single class, at the Company Stockholders
Meeting (the "Company Stockholder Approval") is the only vote of the
holders of any class or series of the Company's capital stock necessary to
approve and adopt this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
(m) STATE TAKEOVER STATUTES. The Board of Directors of the Company has
approved the terms of this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement and the
consummation of the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this
Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement, and such approval is sufficient
to render inapplicable to the Merger and the other transactions
contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement the
provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL. To the best of the Company's
knowledge, no other state takeover statute or similar statute or
regulation applies or purports to apply to the Merger, this Agreement, the
Stockholder Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement or the Stockholder Agreement and no provision of the certificate
of incorporation, by-laws or other governing instruments of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries would, directly or indirectly, restrict or impair
the ability of Parent to vote, or otherwise to exercise the rights of a
stockholder with respect to, shares of the Company and its subsidiaries
that may be acquired or controlled by Parent.
(n) LABOR MATTERS. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is
the subject of any suit, action or proceeding which is pending or, to the
knowledge of the Company, threatened, asserting that the Company or any of
its subsidiaries has committed an unfair labor practice (within the
meaning of the National Labor Relations Act or applicable state statutes)
or seeking to compel the Company or any of its subsidiaries to bargain
with any labor organization as to wages and conditions of employment, in
any such case, that is reasonably expected to result in a material
liability of the Company and its subsidiaries. No strike or other labor
dispute involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries is pending or, to
the knowledge of the Company, threatened, and, to the knowledge of the
<PAGE> 27
23
Company, there is no activity involving any employees of the Company or
any of its subsidiaries seeking to certify a collective bargaining unit or
engaging in any other organizational activity, except for any such dispute
or activity which would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.
(o) BROKERS. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other
person, other than Merrill Lynch & Co., the fees and expenses of which
will be paid by the Company, is entitled to any broker's, finder's,
financial advisor's or other similar fee or commission in connection with
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder
Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Company. The
Company has furnished to Parent true and complete copies of all agreements
under which any such fees or expenses may be payable and all
indemnification and other agreements related to the engagement of the
persons to whom such fees may be payable.
(p) OPINION OF FINANCIAL ADVISOR. The Company has received the opinion
of Merrill Lynch & Co., dated the date of this Agreement, to the effect
that, as of such date, the Merger Consideration is fair to the Company's
stockholders from a financial point of view, a copy of which opinion has

any of its subsidiaries holds licenses from the FCC, in each case which
are owned or operated by the Company and its subsidiaries (the "Licensed

renewal or material modification of any of the FCC Licenses and, to the
best of the Company's knowledge, there is not now before the FCC any
material investigation, proceeding, notice of violation, order of

suspend, cancel, rescind or modify in any material respect any of the FCC
Licenses that, if adversely decided, would have a material adverse effect
on the Company (other than proceedings to amend FCC rules of general
applicability to the radio industry).

as set forth with respect to a specifically identified representation and
warranty on the
<PAGE> 30
26
Disclosure Schedule delivered by Parent to the Company prior to the execution
of this Agreement (the Parent Disclosure Schedule"), Parent and Sub represent

in which it is incorporated and has the requisite corporate power and
authority to carry on its business as now being conducted. Each of Parent,
Sub and Parent's significant subsidiaries is duly qualified or licensed to
do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the
nature of its business or the ownership or leasing of its properties makes
such qualification or licensing necessary, other than in such
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or licensed or to be in
good standing individually or in the aggregate would not have a material
adverse effect on Parent. Parent has delivered to the Company complete and
correct copies of its articles of incorporation and by-laws and the
certificate of incorporation and by-laws of Sub, in each case as amended
to the date hereof.
(b) CAPITAL STRUCTURE. The authorized capital stock of Parent consists

rights (the "Rights") to purchase shares of Parent Preferred Stock
pursuant to the Rights Agreement dated as of December 28, 1995, between
Parent and First Chicago Trust Company of New York, as Rights Agent (the

on June 18, 1996, no shares of capital stock or other voting securities of
Parent were issued, reserved for issuance or outstanding. All outstanding
shares of capital stock of Parent are, and, subject to the Parent
Shareholder Approval, all shares which may be issued pursuant to this
Agreement will be, when issued, duly authorized, validly issued, fully
paid and nonassessable and not subject to preemptive rights. There are no
bonds, debentures, notes or other indebtedness of Parent having the right

right to vote) on any matters on which shareholders of Parent may vote.
Except as set forth above or as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement,
there are no outstanding securities, options, warrants, calls, rights,
commitments, agreements, arrangements or undertakings of any kind to which
Parent is a party or by which it is bound obligating Parent to issue,
deliver or sell, or cause to be issued, delivered or sold, additional
shares of capital stock or other voting securities of Parent or obligating
Parent to issue, grant, extend or enter into any such security, option,
warrant, call, right, commitment, agreement, arrangement or undertaking.
There are no outstanding contractual obligations of Parent to repurchase,
redeem or otherwise acquire any shares of capital stock of Parent. As of
the date of this Agreement, the authorized capital stock of Sub consists
of 1,000 shares of common stock, par value $1.00 per share, all of which
have been validly issued, are fully paid and nonassessable and are owned
by Parent free and clear of any Lien.

the Parent
<PAGE> 32
28
Shareholder Approval, to consummate the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent and Sub
and the consummation by Parent and Sub of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action
on the part of Parent and Sub, subject in the case of Parent to the Parent
Shareholder Approval. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered
by Parent and Sub and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of Parent
and Sub, enforceable against Parent and Sub in accordance with its terms.
The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and compliance with the
provisions of this Agreement by Parent or Sub, as the case may be, will
not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or
without notice or lapse of time, or both) under, or give rise to a right
of termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation or loss of
a material benefit under, or result in the creation of any Lien upon any
of the properties or assets of Parent, Sub or any of Parent's other
subsidiaries under, (i) the articles or certificate of incorporation or
by-laws of Parent, Sub or such other subsidiary, subject in the case of
Parent to the Parent Shareholder Approval, (ii) any loan or credit
agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement,
instrument, permit, concession, franchise or license applicable to Parent,
Sub or such other subsidiary or their respective properties or assets or

the following sentence, any judgment, order, decree, statute, law,
ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Parent, Sub or such other
subsidiary or their respective properties or assets, other than, in the
case of clauses (ii) and (iii), any such conflicts, violations, defaults,
rights, Liens, judgments, orders, decrees, statutes, laws, ordinances,
rules or regulations that individually or in the aggregate would not (x)
have a material adverse effect on Parent, (y) impair the ability of Parent
and Sub to perform their respective obligations under this Agreement in
any material respect or (z) delay in any material respect or prevent the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or
the Stockholder Agreement. No consent, approval, order or authorization
of, or registration, declaration or
<PAGE> 33
29
filing with, any Governmental Entity is required by or with respect to
Parent or Sub in connection with the execution and delivery of this
Agreement or the consummation by Parent or Sub, as the case may be, of any
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for (1) the
filing of a premerger notification and report form by Parent under the HSR
Act; (2) the filing with the SEC of the Form S-4, the Joint Proxy

Merger with the Delaware Secretary of State and appropriate documents with
the relevant authorities of other states in which the Company is qualified
to do business and such filings with Governmental Entities to satisfy the
applicable requirements of state securities or "blue sky" laws; (4) such
filings with and approvals of the FCC as may be required under the
Communications Act, including in connection with the transfer of the FCC
Licenses; (5) such filings with and approvals of the NYSE to permit the
shares of Parent Common Stock that are to be issued in the Merger, upon
exercise of the Company Warrants and under the Stock Plans to be listed on
the NYSE; (6) such other filings and consents as may be required under any
environmental, health or safety law or regulation pertaining to any
notification, disclosure or required approval necessitated by the Merger
or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; and (7) such consents,
approvals, orders or authorizations the failure of which to be made or
obtained would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse
effect on Parent.
(d) SEC DOCUMENTS; UNDISCLOSED LIABILITIES. Parent has filed all
required reports, schedules, forms, statements and other documents with
the SEC since January 1, 1995 (the "Parent SEC Documents"). As of their
respective dates, the Parent SEC Documents complied in all material
respects with the requirements of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act,
as the case may be, and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated
thereunder applicable to such Parent SEC Documents, and none of the Parent
SEC Documents when filed contained any untrue statement of a material fact
or omitted to state a material fact required to be
<PAGE> 34
30
stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in
light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.
Except to the extent that information contained in any Parent SEC Document
has been revised or superseded by a later filed Parent SEC Document, none
of the Parent SEC Documents contains any untrue statement of a material
fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. The financial
statements of Parent included in the Parent SEC Documents comply as to
form in all material respects with applicable accounting requirements and
the published rules and regulations of the SEC with respect thereto, have
been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(except, in the case of unaudited statements, as permitted by Form 10-Q of
the SEC) applied on a consistent basis during the periods involved (except
as may be indicated in the notes thereto) and fairly present in all
material respects the consolidated financial position of Parent and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of the dates thereof and the consolidated
results of their operations and cash flows for the periods then ended
(subject, in the case of unaudited statements, to normal year-end audit
adjustments). Except as set forth in the Filed Parent SEC Documents (as
defined in Section 3.02(f)), and except for liabilities and obligations
incurred in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice
since the date of the most recent consolidated balance sheet included in
the Filed Parent SEC Documents, neither Parent nor any of its subsidiaries
has any material liabilities or obligations of any nature (whether
accrued, absolute, contingent or otherwise) required by generally accepted
accounting to be recognized or disclosed on a consolidated balance sheet
of Parent and its consolidated subsidiaries or in the notes thereto.
(e) INFORMATION SUPPLIED. None of the information supplied or to be
supplied by Parent or Sub specifically for inclusion or incorporation by
reference in (i) the Form S-4 will, at the time the Form S-4 is filed with
the SEC, at any time it is amended or supplemented or at the time it
becomes effective under the Securities Act, contain any untrue statement
of a material fact or omit to state any
<PAGE> 35
31
material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the
statements therein not misleading, or (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement will,
at the date the Joint Proxy Statement is first mailed to Parent's
shareholders or at the time of the Parent Shareholders Meeting, contain
any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not
misleading. The Form S-4 will comply as to form in all material respects
with the requirements of the securities Act and the rules and regulations
promulgated thereunder and the Joint Proxy Statement will comply as to
form in all material respects with the requirements of the Exchange Act
and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, except that no
representation or warranty is made by Parent or Sub with respect to
statements made or incorporated by reference in either the Form S-4 or the
Joint Proxy Statement based on information supplied by the Company
specifically for inclusion or incorporation by reference therein.
(f) ABSENCE OF CERTAIN CHANGES OR EVENTS. Except as disclosed in the
Parent SEC Documents filed and publicly available prior to the date of
this Agreement (the "Filed Parent SEC Documents"), since the date of the
most recent audited financial statements included in the Filed Parent SEC
Documents, Parent has conducted its business only in the ordinary course,
and there has not been (i) any material adverse change in Parent, (ii)
except for regular quarterly dividends (in an amount determined in a
manner consistent with Parent's past practice) with customary record and
payment dates, any declaration, setting aside or payment of any dividend
or distribution (whether in cash, stock or property) with respect to any
of Parent's capital stock, (iii) any split, combination or
reclassification of any Parent Common Stock or any issuance or the
authorization of any issuance of any other securities in respect of, in
lieu of or in substitution for shares of the Parent Common Stock or (iv)
any damage, destruction or loss, whether or not covered by insurance, that
has or could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on
Parent; it being understood that, except for the creation of the holding
company described in Section 1.01(c), the foregoing
<PAGE> 36
32
exception for matters disclosed in the Filed Parent SEC Documents shall
not relate to any transaction contemplated by Parent's press release dated
as of June 10, 1996, relating to the possible separation of Parent's
broadcasting businesses from its other businesses.
(g) LITIGATION. Except as disclosed in the Filed Parent SEC Documents,
there is no suit, action or proceeding (including any proceeding by or
before the FCC other than proceedings to amend FCC rules of general
applicability to the radio industry) pending or, to the knowledge of
Parent, threatened against or affecting Parent or any of its subsidiaries
that individually or in the aggregate could reasonably be expected to (i)
have a material adverse effect on Parent, (ii) impair the ability of
Parent or Sub to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any
material respect or (iii) delay in any material respect or prevent the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
nor is there any judgment, decree, injunction, rule or order of any
Governmental Entity or arbitrator outstanding against Parent or any of its
subsidiaries having, or which could reasonably be expected to have, any
effect referred to in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above.
(h) BROKERS. No broker, investment banker, financial advisor or other
person, other than Chase Securities Inc. and Salomon Brothers Inc, the
fees and expenses of which will be paid by Parent, is entitled to any
broker's, finder's, financial advisor's or other similar fee or commission
in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Stockholder Agreement based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of
Parent or Sub.
(i) INTERIM OPERATIONS OF SUB. Sub was formed solely for the purpose
of engaging in the transactions contemplated hereby and has engaged in no
other business other than incident to its creation and this Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereby.
(j) VOTING REQUIREMENTS. The affirmative vote at the Parent
Shareholders Meeting of the holders of a majority of the voting power of
the outstanding shares of Parent Common Stock entitled to vote generally
in an annual election of directors (the "Parent Shareholder
<PAGE> 37
33
Approval") is the only vote of the holders of any class or series of
Parent's capital stock necessary (i) to approve and adopt the amendment
(the "Charter Amendment") to Parent's articles of incorporation to create
a sufficient number of authorized shares of Parent Common Stock to permit
the issuance of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger and (ii) to
authorize, in accordance with the applicable rules of the NYSE, the
issuance of Parent Common Stock pursuant to the Merger.
(k) TAXES. (i) Each of Parent and its subsidiaries has filed all tax
returns and reports required to be filed by it or requests for extensions
to file such returns or reports have been timely filed, granted and have
not expired, except to the extent that such failures to file or to have
extensions granted that remain in effect individually or in the aggregate
would not have a material adverse effect on Parent. All returns filed by
Parent and each of its subsidiaries are complete and accurate in all
material respects to the knowledge of Parent. Parent and each of its
subsidiaries has paid (or Parent has paid on its behalf) all taxes shown
as due on such returns, and the most recent financial statements contained
in the Filed Parent SEC Documents reflect an adequate reserve for all
taxes payable by Parent and its subsidiaries for all taxable periods and
portions thereof accrued through the date of such financial statements. Of
the net operating loss carryovers available to Parent's federal
consolidated group as of January 1, 1996, no more than $100,000,000 are
subject to "separate return limitation year" restrictions under Section
1502 of the Code.
(ii) No deficiencies for any taxes have been proposed, asserted or
assessed against Parent or any of its subsidiaries that are not adequately
reserved for, except for deficiencies that individually or in the
aggregate would not have a material adverse effect on Parent, and no
requests for waivers of the time to assess any such taxes have been
granted or are pending that individually or in the aggregate would have a
material adverse effect on Parent. The Federal income tax returns of
Parent and each of its subsidiaries consolidated in such returns have been
examined by and settled with the United States Internal Revenue Service
for all years through 1989. The statute of limitations
<PAGE> 38
34
on assessment or collection of any Federal income taxes due from Parent or
any of its subsidiaries has expired for all taxable years of Parent or
such subsidiaries through 1984. None of the assets or properties of Parent
or any of its subsidiaries is subject to any tax lien other than Permitted
Tax Liens.
(l) COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAWS. Each of Parent and each of its
subsidiaries has in effect all Permits necessary for it to own, lease or
operate its properties and assets and to carry on its business as now
conducted, and there has occurred no default under any such Permit, except
for the lack of Permits and for defaults under Permits which lack or
default individually or in the aggregate would not have a material adverse
effect on Parent. Except as disclosed in the Filed Parent SEC Documents,
Parent and its subsidiaries are in compliance with all applicable
statutes, laws, ordinances, rules, orders and regulations of any
Governmental Entity, except for possible noncompliance which individually
or in the aggregate would not have a material adverse effect on Parent.
(m) OPINION OF FINANCIAL ADVISORS. Parent has received the opinions of
Chase Securities Inc. and Salomon Brothers Inc, in each case dated June
19, 1996, to the effect that, as of such date, the Conversion Number is
fair to Parent from a financial point of view, a signed copy of each such
opinion has been delivered to the Company.
(n) FCC LICENSES; OPERATIONS OF PARENT LICENSED FACILITIES. Parent and
its subsidiaries have operated the radio stations for which Parent or any
of its subsidiaries holds licenses from the FCC, in each case which are
owned or operated by Parent and its subsidiaries (the "Parent Licensed
Facilities") in material compliance with the terms of the Permits issued
by the FCC to the Parent and its subsidiaries ("Parent FCC Licenses")
(complete and correct copies of each of which have been made available to
the Company), and in material compliance with the Communications Act.
Parent and its subsidiaries have timely filed or made all applications,
reports and other disclosures required by the FCC to be filed or made with
respect to the Parent Licensed Facilities and have timely paid all FCC
regulatory fees with respect thereto. Parent and
<PAGE> 39
35
each of its subsidiaries have, and are the authorized legal holders of,
all Parent FCC Licenses necessary or used in the operation of the
businesses of the Parent Licensed Facilities as presently operated. All
such Parent FCC Licenses are validly held and are in full force and
effect, unimpaired by any act or omission of Parent, each of its
subsidiaries (or their respective predecessors) or their respective
officers, employees or agents. As of the date hereof, no application,
action or proceeding is pending for the renewal or material modification
of any of the Parent FCC Licenses and, to the best of Parent's knowledge,
there is not now before the FCC any material investigation, proceeding,
notice of violation, order of forfeiture or complaint against Parent or
any of its subsidiaries relating to any of the Parent Licensed Facilities
that, if adversely decided, would have a material adverse effect on Parent
(and Parent is not aware of any basis that would cause the FCC not to
renew any of the Parent FCC Licenses). There is not now pending and, to
Parent's knowledge, there is not threatened, any action by or before the
FCC to revoke, suspend, cancel, rescind or modify in any material respect
any of the Parent FCC Licenses that, if adversely decided, would have a
material adverse effect on Parent (other than proceedings to amend FCC
rules of general applicability to the radio industry).
(o) FCC QUALIFICATIONS. Parent and Sub are fully qualified under the
Communications Act to be the transferees of control of the FCC Licenses,
provided, however, that the parties recognize that the consummation of the
Merger would cause Parent to exceed in certain cases (i) the limits on
ownership of television and radio stations serving the same market imposed
by the FCC's "one-to-a-market" rule, 47 C.F.R. Section 73.3555(c), and (ii)
the numerical limits on local multiple radio station ownership imposed by
Section 202(b) of the 1996 Telecommunications Act.

quarterly cash dividends (in an amount determined in a manner consistent
with Parent's past practice) with customary record and payment dates or
(y) split, combine or reclassify any of its capital stock or, except for
the creation of the holding company described in Section 1.01(c), issue or
authorize the issuance of any other securities in respect of, in lieu of
or in substitution for shares of its capital stock;
(ii) amend Parent's articles of incorporation or by-laws in a manner

(iii) except as set forth in Section 4.01 of the Parent Disclosure
Schedule and subject to Section 4.01(c), acquire or agree to acquire any
broadcast radio stations (whether through merger or by purchase of assets
or otherwise) (provided that any acquisition pursuant to a swap of assets
without the payment by Parent of a material amount of cash consideration
along therewith shall require only consultation with, and not approval of,
the Company);
(iv) except as set forth in Section 4.01 of the Parent Disclosure
Schedule and subject to Section 4.01(c), sell or otherwise dispose of any

consideration along therewith shall require only consultation with, and
not approval of, the Company); or
(v) authorize, or commit or agree to take, any of the foregoing
actions.
(c) OTHER ACTIONS. The Company and Parent shall not, and shall not
permit any of their respective subsidiaries to, take any action that would, or
that could reasonably be expected to, result in (i) any of the representations
and warranties of such party set forth in this Agreement that are qualified as
to materiality becoming untrue, (ii) any of such representations and warranties
that are not so qualified becoming untrue in any material respect or (iii) any
of the conditions to the Merger set forth in Article VI not being satisfied. In
addition, Parent and Sub, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand,
further covenant that from and after the date hereof until the Effective Time,
without the prior written consent of the Company or Parent, as the case may be,
neither Parent nor Sub, on the one hand, nor the Company, on the other hand,
shall, except as otherwise set forth in Section 4.01(c) of the Parent
Disclosure Schedule or of the Company Disclosure Schedule, take any action that
could reasonably be expected to impair or delay in any material respect
obtaining the FCC Order (as defined in Section 6.01(b)) or complying with or
satisfying the terms thereof.
(d) ADVICE OF CHANGES. The Company and Parent shall promptly advise
the other party orally and in writing of (i) any representation or warranty
made by it contained in this Agreement that is qualified as to materiality
<PAGE> 44
40
becoming untrue or inaccurate in any respect or any such representation or
warranty that is not so qualified becoming untrue or inaccurate in any material
respect, (ii) the failure by it to comply with or satisfy in any material
respect any covenant, condition or agreement to be complied with or satisfied
by it under this Agreement or (iii) any change or event having, or which,
insofar as can reasonably be foreseen, would have, a material adverse effect on
such party or on the truth of their respective representations and warranties
or the ability of the conditions set forth in Article VI to be satisfied;
provided, however, that no such notification shall affect the representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements of the parties or the conditions to the
obligations of the parties under this Agreement.
SECTION 4.02. NO SOLICITATION. (a) The Company shall not, nor shall it
permit any of its subsidiaries to, nor shall it authorize or permit any
officer, director or employee of or any investment banker, attorney or other
advisor or representative of, the Company or any of its subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, (i) solicit, initiate or encourage the submission of
any takeover proposal (as defined in Section 8.03), (ii) enter into any
agreement with respect to any takeover proposal or give any approval of the
type referred to in Section 3.01(m) with respect to any takeover proposal or
(iii) participate in any discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to
any person any information with respect to, or take any other action to
facilitate any inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may
reasonably be expected to lead to, any takeover proposal; provided, however,
that if at any time prior to the receipt of the Company Stockholder Approval,
the Board of Directors of the Company determines in good faith, based on the
advice of outside counsel, that it is necessary to do so in order to comply
with its fiduciary duties to the Company's stockholders under applicable law,
the Company may, in response to an unsolicited takeover proposal of the sort
referred to in clause (x) of Section 8.03(g) that involves consideration to the
Company's stockholders with a value that the Company's Board of Directors
reasonably believes, after receiving advice from the Company's financial
advisor, is superior to the consideration provided for in the Merger, and
subject to compliance with Section 4.02(c), (x) furnish information with
respect to the Company pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement to any
person making such proposal and (y) participate in negotiations regarding such
proposal. Without limiting the foregoing, it is understood that any
<PAGE> 45
41
violation of the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence by any
officer, director or employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or any
investment banker, attorney or other advisor or representative of the Company
or any of its subsidiaries, whether or not such person is purporting to act on
behalf of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise, shall be deemed
to be a breach of this Section 4.02(a) by the Company.
(b) Neither the Board of Directors of the Company nor any committee
thereof shall (x) withdraw or modify, or propose to withdraw or modify, in a
manner adverse to Parent, the approval or recommendation by such Board of
Directors or such committee of this Agreement or the Merger or (y) approve or
recommend, or propose to approve or recommend, any takeover proposal except in
connection with a superior proposal (as defined in Section 8.03(g)) and then
only at or after the termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.01(c).
(c) In addition to the obligations of the Company set forth in
paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 4.02, the Company promptly shall advise
Parent orally and in writing of any request for information or of any takeover
proposal or any inquiry with respect to or which could reasonably be expected
to lead to any takeover proposal, the identity of the person making any such
request, takeover proposal or inquiry and all the terms and conditions thereof.
The Company will keep Parent fully informed of the status and details
(including amendments or proposed amendments) of any such request, takeover
proposal or inquiry.
(d) Nothing contained in this Section 4.02 shall prohibit the Company
from taking and disclosing to its stockholders a position contemplated by Rule
14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, neither the
Company nor its Board of Directors nor any committee thereof shall, except as
permitted by Section 4.02(b), withdraw or modify, or propose to withdraw or
modify, its position with respect to the Merger or approve or recommend, or
propose to approve or recommend, a takeover proposal.

Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below), each of the Company and Parent

other party and to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial
advisors and other representatives of such other party, reasonable access
during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time to
all their respective properties, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and
records and, during such period, each of the Company and Parent shall, and
shall cause each of its respective subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the
other party (a) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and
other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of
Federal or state securities laws and (b) all other information concerning its
business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request.
Each of the Company and Parent will hold, and will cause its respective

effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement,
including (i) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers,
consents and approvals from Governmental Entities (including the FCC (the "FCC
Application"), which the parties shall file as soon as practicable (and in any
event within 30 days) after the date hereof) and the making of all necessary
registrations and filings (including filings with Governmental Entities, such
as those referred to in Sections 3.01(d)(1)-(5) and 3.02(c)(1)-(5)) and the
taking of all reasonable steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval or
waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entity,

<PAGE> 49
45
lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative,
challenging this Agreement or the Stockholder Agreement or the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Stockholder Agreement
(such as in connection with the transfer of the FCC Licenses), including
seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or
other Governmental Entity vacated or reversed and (iv) the execution and
delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions
contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement and the
Stockholder Agreement; provided, however, that a party shall not be obligated
to take any action pursuant to the foregoing if the taking of such action or
the obtaining of any waiver, consent, approval or exemption is reasonably
likely (x) to be materially burdensome to such party and its subsidiaries taken
as a whole or to impact in a materially adverse manner the economic or business
benefits of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Stockholder
Agreement so as to render inadvisable the consummation of the Merger or (y) to
result in the imposition of a condition or restriction of the type referred to
in clause (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 6.02(d); provided further that
Parent agrees to offer in the FCC Application and to accept the conditions
contained in the proviso of Section 6.01(b).

Company and its Board of Directors shall (i) take all action necessary to
ensure that no state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or
becomes applicable to the Merger, this Agreement, the Stockholder Agreement or
any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the Stockholder
Agreement and (ii) if any state takeover statute or similar statute or
regulation becomes applicable to the Merger, this Agreement, the Stockholder
Agreement or any other transaction contemplated by this Agreement or the
Stockholder Agreement, take all action necessary to ensure that the Merger and
the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder
Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms
contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement and otherwise to
minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on the Merger and the other
transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement.

SECTION 5.06. STOCK OPTIONS; WARRANTS. (a) As soon as practicable
following the date of this Agreement, the Board of Directors of the Company
(or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Stock Plans) shall adopt
such resolutions or take such other actions as may be required to effect the
following:
(i) adjust the terms of all outstanding (x) employee and director stock
options to purchase shares of Company Common Stock ("Employee Stock
Options") granted under the Company's Stock Option Plan, and the Company's
1996 Long-Term Incentive Plan (if adopted by the Company's stockholders at
the Company's 1996 annual meeting), in each case as amended and restated
through the date hereof, or any other stock option plan, program, agreement
or arrangement of the Company or its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Stock
Plans") and (y) employee deferred share awards with respect to Company
Common Stock ("Employee Deferred Shares" and, together with the Employee
Stock Options, the "Employee Stock Awards") granted under the Company's
Deferred Share Plan or any other deferred share plan, program, agreement or
arrangement of the Company or its subsidiaries, in each case as amended or
restated through the date hereof (collectively, the "Deferred Share Plans"
and, together with the Stock Plans, the "Equity Plans"), whether vested or
unvested, as necessary to provide that, at the Effective Time, (I) each
Employee Stock Option outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time
shall be deemed to constitute an option to acquire, on the same terms and
conditions as were applicable under such Employee Stock Option, including
vesting and the rights of the holder under the terms of such Employee Stock
Option, the same number of shares of Parent Common Stock as the holder of
such Employee Stock Option would have been entitled to receive pursuant to
the Merger had such holder exercised such Employee Stock Option in full
immediately prior to the Effective Time (the "Deemed Parent Share Amount"),
at a price per share of Parent Common Stock equal to (A) the aggregate
exercise price for the shares of Company Common Stock otherwise purchasable
pursuant to such Employee Stock Option divided by (B) the aggregate Deemed
Parent Share Amount with respect to such Employee Stock Option (each, as so
adjusted, an "Adjusted Option"); provided, however, that in the case of any
option to which Section 421 of the Code applies by reason of its
qualification under
<PAGE> 51
47
any of Sections 422 through 424 of the Code ("qualified stock options"),
the option price, the number of shares purchasable pursuant to such option
and the terms and conditions of exercise of such option shall be determined
in order to comply with Section 424 of the Code and (II) each Employee
Deferred Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be
deemed to constitute a deferred share, subject to the same terms and
conditions as were applicable under the Employee Deferred Share, including
the rights of the holder under the terms of such Employee Deferred Share,
with respect to the number of shares of Parent Common Stock that the holder
of such Employee Deferred Share would have been entitled to receive
pursuant to the Merger had such holder held the shares of Company Common
Stock covered by such Employee Deferred Share directly immediately prior to
the Effective Time; and
(ii) subject to the consent of Parent, such consent not to be
unreasonably withheld, make such other changes to the Equity Plans as the
Company and Parent may determine appropriate to give effect to the Merger,
including the amendment of the Stock Plans to permit the deferral of the
payment of any shares of Parent Common Stock purchased upon the exercise of
any Adjusted Stock Option identified on Section 5.06 of the Company
Disclosure Schedule pursuant to the election of the holder thereof who is
identified on Section 5.06 of the Company Disclosure Schedule but only to
the extent any such amendment would not cause any amount that would
otherwise be deductible by the Company or Parent to fail to be so
deductible.
(b) As soon as practicable after the Effective Time, Parent shall
deliver to the holders of Employee Stock Awards appropriate notices setting
forth such holders' rights pursuant to the respective Equity Plans and the
agreements evidencing the grants of such Employee Stock Awards shall continue in
effect on the same terms and conditions (subject to the adjustments required by
this Section 5.06 after giving effect to the Merger and the provisions of
paragraphs (a)(ii) and (e) of this Section 5.06). Parent shall comply with the
terms of the Equity Plans and ensure, to the extent required by, and subject to
the provisions of, the Stock Plans, that the Employee Stock Options which
qualified as qualified stock options prior to the Effective Time continue to
qualify as qualified stock options after the Effective Time.
<PAGE> 52
48
(c) Parent shall take such actions as are reasonably necessary for
the assumption of the Equity Plans of the Company pursuant to Section 5.06(a),
including the reservation, issuance and listing of Parent Common Stock as is
necessary to effectuate the transactions contemplated by Section 5.06(a). Upon
or prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a
registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to shares of Parent Common
Stock subject to Employee Stock Awards and shall use its best efforts to
maintain the effectiveness of a registration statement or registration
statements covering such Employee Stock Awards (and maintain the current status
of the prospectus or prospectuses contained therein) for so long as such
Employee Stock Awards remain outstanding. With respect to those individuals,
if any, who subsequent to the Effective Time will be subject to the reporting
requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, where applicable, Parent
shall use its best efforts to administer the Equity Plans assumed pursuant to
Section 5.06(a) in a manner that complies with Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the
Exchange Act.
(d) A holder of an Adjusted Option may exercise such Adjusted Option
in whole or in part in accordance with its terms and the terms of the related
Stock Plan by delivering a properly executed notice of exercise to Parent,
together with the consideration therefor and the Federal withholding tax
information, if any, required in accordance with the related Stock Plan.
(e) All restrictions or limitations on transfer and vesting with
respect to Employee Stock Options awarded under the Stock Plans, to the extent
that such restrictions or limitations shall not have already lapsed, shall
remain in full force and effect with respect to such options after giving
effect to the Merger and the assumption by Parent as set forth above, except
that effective from and after the Effective Time the restrictions and
limitations on the vesting of Employee Options held as of the date hereof by
that individual listed on Section 5.06 of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall
lapse and shall be of no further effect.
(f) Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to deliver to each
holder of Company Warrants at or prior to the Effective Time the undertakings
required by Section 6.3 of each warrant certificate (as in effect on the date
hereof) that represents outstanding Company Warrants.
<PAGE> 53
49
SECTION 5.07. BENEFIT PLANS. Except as provided in Section 5.06,
Parent hereby agrees that for a period of one year immediately following the
Closing, it shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, continue to
maintain employee benefit plans, programs and policies for the employees of the
Company and its subsidiaries which, in the aggregate, provide benefits that are
no less favorable to those provided to them under such plans, programs and
policies on the date hereof.
SECTION 5.08. INDEMNIFICATION, EXCULPATION AND INSURANCE. Parent and
Sub agree that all rights to indemnification and exculpation from liabilities
for acts or omissions occurring at or prior to the Effective Time now existing
in favor of the current or former directors or officers of the Company and its
subsidiaries as provided in their respective certificates of incorporation,
by-laws (or comparable organizational documents) and indemnification agreements
shall survive the Merger and shall continue in full force and effect in
accordance with their terms for a period of not less than six years from the
Effective Time. Parent will cause to be maintained for a period of not less
than six years from the Effective Time the Company's current directors' and
officers' insurance and indemnification policy to the extent that it provides
coverage for events occurring prior to the Effective Time ("D&O Insurance") for
all persons who are directors and officers of the Company on the date of this
Agreement, so long as the annual premium therefor would not be in excess of
200% of the last annual premium paid prior to the date of this Agreement (the
"Maximum Premium"); provided, however, that Parent may, in lieu of maintaining
such existing D&O Insurance as provided above, cause coverage to be provided
under any policy maintained for the benefit of Parent or any of its
subsidiaries, so long as the terms thereof are no less advantageous to the
intended beneficiaries thereof than the existing D&O Insurance. If the
existing D&O Insurance expires, is terminated or cancelled during such six-year
period, Parent will use all reasonable efforts to cause to be obtained as much
D&O Insurance as can be obtained for the remainder of such period for an
annualized premium not in excess of the Maximum Premium, on terms and
conditions no less advantageous to the covered persons than the existing D&O
Insurance. The Company represents to Parent that the Maximum Premium is
$581,660.
SECTION 5.09. FEES AND EXPENSES. (a) Except as provided below in
this Section 5.09, all fees and expenses
<PAGE> 54
50
incurred in connection with the Merger, this Agreement, the Stockholder
Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the
Stockholder Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or
expenses, whether or not the Merger is consummated, except that each of Parent
and the Company shall bear and pay one-half of the costs and expenses incurred
in connection with the filing, printing and mailing of the Form S-4 and the
Joint Proxy Statement.
(b) The Company shall pay, or cause to be paid, in same day funds to
Parent the sum of (x) Parent's Expenses (as defined below) in an amount up to
but not to exceed $20,000,000 and (y) $100,000,000 (the "Termination Fee") upon
demand if (i) the Company terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section
7.01(c); or (ii) Parent terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section
7.01(b)(i) or (b)(iv) at any time after a takeover proposal has been made and
within one year after such a termination, the person that made the takeover
proposal (or an affiliate thereof) completes a merger, consolidation or other
business combination with the Company or a significant subsidiary of the
Company, or the purchase from the Company or from a significant subsidiary of
the Company of 20% or more (in voting power) of the voting securities of the
Company or of 20% or more (in market value or book value) of the assets of the
Company and its subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis. "Expenses" shall mean
reasonable and reasonably documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred
or paid by or on behalf of Parent in connection with the Merger or the
consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement,
including all fees and expenses of counsel, commercial banks, investment
banking firms, accountants, experts and consultants to Parent.
SECTION 5.10. PUBLIC ANNOUNCEMENTS. Parent and Sub, on the one hand,
and the Company, on the other hand, will consult with each other before
issuing, and provide each other the opportunity to review, comment upon and
concur with, any press release or other public statements with respect to the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including the Merger, and shall
not issue any such press release or make any such public statement prior to
such consultation, except as may be required by applicable law, court process
or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national
securities exchange. The parties agree that the initial press release to be
issued with respect to the transactions contemplated by this
<PAGE> 55
51
Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement shall be in the form heretofore agreed
to by the parties.
SECTION 5.11. AFFILIATES. Prior to the Closing Date, the Company
shall deliver to Parent a letter identifying all persons who are, at the time
the Merger is submitted for approval to the stockholders of the Company,
"affiliates" of the Company for purposes of Rule 145 under the Securities Act.
The Company shall use reasonable efforts to cause each such person to deliver
to Parent on or prior to the Closing Date a written agreement in a form
reasonably acceptable to Parent and the Company. The Company shall not
register, and shall instruct its transfer agent not to register, the transfer
of any certificate representing Company Common Stock held by a Principal
Stockholder, unless such transfer is made in compliance with the terms of the
Stockholder Agreement.
SECTION 5.12. NYSE LISTING. Parent shall use all reasonable efforts
to cause the shares of Parent Common Stock to be issued in the Merger, upon
exercise of the Company Warrants and under the Stock Plans to be approved for
listing on the NYSE, subject to official notice of issuance, prior to the
Closing Date.
SECTION 5.13. STOCKHOLDER LITIGATION. The Company shall give Parent
the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any stockholder
litigation against the Company and its directors relating to the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement; provided, however, that Parent shall have the
right to prevent the Company from entering into any such settlement without
Parent's consent by agreeing to indemnify each director of the Company for the
amount of his individual liability (whether as director or in another
capacity), if any, arising from the underlying claim, net of insurance, that is
in excess of the amount, if any, that such director would have been liable for
under such settlement (whether as director or in another capacity).

local multiple radio ownership imposed by Section 202(b) of the 1996
Telecommunications Act through receipt of a temporary waiver for a period
of up to six months following the Effective Time or otherwise, and (ii) may

date of FCC action concluding the ongoing rulemaking proceeding in MM
Docket Nos. 91-221, 87-8 (FCC 94-322) and any successor rulemaking
proceeding, including in particular a rulemaking initiated by the FCC in
response to the 1996 Telecommunications Act, that considers the
"one-to-a-market" rule. The "FCC Order" shall be an action by the FCC
approving the transfer of the FCC Licenses for the operation of the
Licensed Facilities pursuant to the Merger which, except in each case as
may be waived in writing by Parent in its sole discretion, has not been
reversed, stayed, enjoined, set aside, annulled or suspended; with respect
to which no timely request for stay, petition for reconsideration or appeal
or sua sponte action of the FCC with comparable effect is pending; and as

permanent injunction or other order enacted, entered, promulgated, enforced
or issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other Governmental
Entity or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation
of the Merger shall be in effect.

WHEREAS Parent, R Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly

agree as follows:
<PAGE> 2

1. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF EACH STOCKHOLDER. Each Stockholder
hereby, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants to Parent as of the
date hereof in respect of himself or itself as follows:
(a) AUTHORITY. The Stockholder has all requisite power and authority to
enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions contemplated
hereby. This Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by
the Stockholder and constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the
Stockholder enforceable in accordance with its terms. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement do not, and the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby and compliance with the terms hereof will not, conflict
with, or result in any violation of, or default (with or without notice or
lapse of time or both) under any provision of, any trust agreement, loan or
credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement,
instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, notice,
decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to the
Stockholder or to the Stockholder's property or assets. If the Stockholder
is married and the Stockholder's Subject Shares constitute community property
or otherwise need spousal or other approval to be legal, valid and binding,
this Agreement has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by, and
constitutes a valid and binding agreement of, the Stockholder's spouse,
enforceable against such spouse in accordance with its terms. No trust of
which such Stockholder is a trustee requires the consent of any beneficiary
to the execution and delivery of this Agreement or to the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby. Each Stockholder will execute a power of
attorney in favor of at least two other Stockholders with respect to the
matters covered by Sections 3(a) and (b) in the event of incapacity of any
Stockholder.
(b) THE SUBJECT SHARES. The Stockholder is the record and beneficial owner
of, or is trustee of a trust that is the record holder of, and whose
beneficiaries are the beneficial owners of, and has good and marketable title
to, the Subject Shares set forth opposite his or its name on Schedule A
attached hereto, free and clear of any claims, liens, encumbrances and
security interests whatsoever. The Stockholder does not own, of record or
beneficially,

or restriction with respect to the voting of such Subject Shares, except as
contemplated by this Agreement.
2. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PARENT. (a) Parent hereby represents
and warrants to each Stockholder that Parent has all requisite corporate power
and authority to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the transactions
contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Parent,
and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, have been duly
authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of Parent. This
Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by Parent and constitutes a
valid and binding obligation of Parent enforceable in accordance with its
terms. The execution and delivery of this Agreement do not, and the
consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and compliance with the
terms hereof will not, conflict with, or result in any violation of, or default
(with or without notice or lapse of time or both) under any provision of, the
articles of incorporation or by-laws of Parent, any trust agreement, loan or
credit agreement, note, bond, mortgage, indenture, lease or other agreement,
instrument, permit, concession, franchise, license, judgment, order, notice,
decree, statute, law, ordinance, rule or regulation applicable to Parent or to
Parent's property or assets.
3. COVENANTS OF EACH STOCKHOLDER. Until the termination of this Agreement
in accordance with Section 7, each Stockholder, severally and not jointly,
agrees as follows:

circumstances upon which a vote, consent or other approval (including by
written consent) with respect to the Merger and the Merger Agreement is
sought, the Stockholder shall, including by initiating a written consent
solicitation if requested by Parent, vote (or cause to be voted) the Subject
Shares (and each class thereof) in favor of the Merger, the adoption by the
Company of the Merger Agreement and the approval of the
<PAGE> 4

terms thereof and each of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement.
(b) At any meeting of stockholders of the Company or at any adjournment
thereof or in any other circumstances upon which the Stockholder's vote,
consent or other approval is sought, the Stockholder shall vote (or cause to
be voted) the Subject Shares (and each class thereof) against (i) any merger
agreement or merger (other than the Merger Agreement and the Merger),
consolidation, combination, sale of substantial assets, reorganization,
recapitalization, dissolution, liquidation or winding up of or by the Company
or any other takeover proposal as such term is defined in Section 8.03(h) of
the Merger Agreement (a "Takeover Proposal") or (ii) any amendment of the
Company's certificate of incorporation or by-laws or other proposal or
transaction involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries, which amendment
or other proposal or transaction would in any manner impede, frustrate,
prevent or nullify the Merger, the Merger Agreement or any of the other

voting rights of each class of Company Common Stock. Subject to Section 9,
the Stockholder further agrees not to commit or agree to take any action

each transferee of a counterpart to this Agreement;
(y) Mel Karmazin, a Stockholder identified on Schedule A attached hereto
(the "Designated Stockholder"), shall have the right to Transfer (in the

to satisfy certain existing obligations, (B) up to 750,000 shares of Class B
Common Stock in order to satisfy certain existing obligations and (C) up to
that number of shares of Class B Common Stock as may be reasonably necessary

case so long as all such shares are acquired by the Designated Stockholder
pursuant to exercises of options in respect of Class B Common Stock after
the date hereof; and
(z) Gerald Carrus and Michael A. Wiener, each Stockholders identified on
Schedule A attached hereto (together with the Designated Stockholder, the

to shares of Class A Common Stock).
(d) Subject to the terms of Section 9, during the term of this Agreement,
the Stockholder shall not, nor shall it permit any investment banker,
attorney or other adviser or representative of the Stockholder to, (i)

<PAGE> 6
6
discussions or negotiations regarding, or furnish to any person any
information with respect to, or take any other action to facilitate any
inquiries or the making of any proposal that constitutes, or may reasonably
be expected to lead to, any Takeover Proposal.
(e) Until after the Merger is consummated or the Merger Agreement is
terminated, the Stockholder shall use all reasonable efforts to take, or
cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist
and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper
or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner
practicable, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger
Agreement.
(f) (i) In the event that the Merger Agreement shall have been terminated
under circumstances where Parent is or may become entitled to receive the
Termination Fee, each Stockholder shall pay to Parent on demand an amount
equal to all profit (determined in accordance with Section 3(f)(ii)) of such
Stockholder from the consummation of any Takeover Proposal that is
consummated within two years of such termination.
(ii) For purposes of this Section 3(f), the profit of any Shareholder from
any Takeover Proposal shall equal (A) the aggregate consideration received by
such Stockholder pursuant to such Takeover Proposal, valuing any non-cash
consideration (including any residual interest in the Company) at its fair
market value on the date of such consummation plus (B) the fair market value,
on the date of disposition, of all Subject Shares of such Stockholder
disposed of after the termination of the Merger Agreement and prior to the
date of such consummation less (C) the fair market value of the aggregate
consideration that would have been issuable or payable to such Stockholder if
he had received the Merger Consideration pursuant to the Merger Agreement as
originally executed, valued as of immediately prior to the first public

<PAGE> 7
7
made and (y) the Effective Time of the Merger shall have occurred and Parent
for any reason shall have increased the amount of Merger Consideration

hereof (the "Original Merger Consideration"), each Stockholder shall pay to
Parent on demand an amount in cash equal to the product of (i) the number of
Subject Shares of such Stockholder and (ii) 100% of the excess, if any, of
(A) the per share cash consideration or the per share fair market value of
any non-cash consideration, as the case may be, received by the Stockholder
as a result of the Merger, as amended, determined as of the Effective Time of
the Merger, over (B) the fair market value of the Original Merger
Consideration determined as of the time of the first increase in the amount
of the Original Merger Consideration.
(iv) For purposes of this Section 3(f), the fair market value of any

trading days after the date of determination; and
(B) consideration which is other than cash or securities of the form
specified in clause (i) of this Section 3(f)(iv) shall be determined

event requiring selection of such banking firm; PROVIDED, HOWEVER,
that if the parties are unable to agree within two business days
after the date of such event as to the investment banking firm, then
the parties shall each select one firm, and those firms shall select
a third investment banking firm, which third firm shall make such
determination; provided further, that the fees and expenses of such
investment
<PAGE> 8
8
banking firm shall be borne equally by Parent, on the one hand, and
the Stockholders, on the other hand. The determination of the
investment banking firm shall be binding upon the parties.
(v) Any payment of profit under this Section 3(f) shall (x) if paid in
cash, be paid by wire transfer of same day funds to an account designated by
Parent and (y) if paid through a mutually agreed transfer of securities, be

4. ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS OF DESIGNATED STOCKHOLDER. (a) The Designated
Stockholder owns validly issued and outstanding options and warrants to acquire
a number of shares of Class A Common Stock and of Class B Common Stock, in each
case as set forth opposite his name on Schedule A attached hereto. All such
options and warrants are fully vested and freely exercisable by the Designated
Stockholder to acquire any or all such shares at any time at his option;
PROVIDED that the Designated Stockholder shall not take any action that would
affect such full vesting or continued free exercisability and shall not
Transfer such options and warrants except pursuant to Section 3(c)(y). The
Designated Stockholder hereby agrees with Parent that, if so requested by
Parent at a time and from time to time prior to when Parent believes the record
date for a stockholder vote contemplated by Sections 3(a) or (b) is reasonably
likely to arise and Parent reasonably believes such exercise will be necessary
to ensure the required vote to approve the Merger, the Designated Stockholder
will exercise such number of options and/or warrants as are sufficient, after
giving effect to the exercises and any Transfers contemplated by Section
3(c)(y)(C), to ensure that the Subject Shares continue to represent a majority
of the outstanding voting power of the outstanding capital stock of the Company
entitled to vote on the matters referred to in Sections 3(a) and (b) (the
"Sufficient Number"); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Designated Stockholder shall not be obligated to exercise options under
this Section 4(a) to the extent that the shortfall in reaching the Sufficient
Number of votes results from the death of one or more of the Principal
Stockholders. Any shares of Common Stock received by the Designated
Stockholder upon such exercise shall automatically at such time become "Subject
Shares" for all purposes hereunder
<PAGE> 9
9
(b) For a period of two years following the Effective Time, except as
otherwise required by law and except for the Transfer during the second year of
such two-year period of up to 20% of the aggregate number of shares of Parent
Common Stock received by the Designated Stockholder in the Merger in exchange
for the Subject Shares of the Designated Stockholder or following the Effective
Time upon the exercise of Adjusted Options (the "Subject Parent Shares"), the
Designated Stockholder agrees not to Transfer, or enter into any contract,
option or other arrangement (including any profit sharing arrangement) with
respect to the Transfer of, any such Subject Parent Shares, provided he can
transfer Subject Parent Shares to his former spouse as part of the currently
contemplated settlement so long as she agrees to be bound by the terms of this
Section 4(b).
5. FURTHER ASSURANCES. Each Stockholder will, from time to time, execute
and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional or further
consents, documents and other instruments as Parent may reasonably request for
the purpose of effectively carrying out the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
6. ASSIGNMENT. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or
obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any of the parties without the prior
written consent of the other parties, except that Parent may assign, in its
sole discretion, any or all of its rights, interests and obligations hereunder
to any holding company of Parent that may be created as contemplated by Section
1.01(c) of the Merger Agreement or to any direct or indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of Parent. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will
be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties and
their respective successors and assigns.
7. TERMINATION. This Agreement shall terminate upon the earlier of (a) 15
months from the date hereof or (b) the Effective Time of the Merger; provided,
however, that the Company is not in breach of its obligations under the Merger
Agreement and none of the Stockholders are in breach of their obligations under
this Agreement, this Agreement shall terminate at the time the Merger Agreement
is terminated (i) pursuant to Section 7.01(a) thereof, (ii) by the Company (A)
pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(i) thereof as a result of the Parent Shareholder
Approval not having been obtained or (B) pursuant to Section 7.01(b)(ii)
<PAGE> 10
10
thereof (unless a Takeover Proposal has been made), or (iii) (unless a Takeover
Proposal has been made) otherwise pursuant to its terms solely because the FCC
shall have issued a final, nonappealable order that fails to satisfy the
conditions set forth in Section 6.01(b) (after giving effect to any waiver
thereof by Parent). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Sections 3(f) and 4(b)
shall survive the consummation of the Merger or the termination of the Merger
Agreement for the respective periods of time specified therein.
8. GENERAL PROVISIONS.
(a) AMENDMENTS. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument
in writing signed by each of the parties hereto.
(b) NOTICE. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in
writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally or sent by
overnight courier (providing proof of delivery) to Parent in accordance with
Section 8.02 of the Merger Agreement and to the Stockholders at their
respective addresses set forth on Schedule A attached hereto (or at such
other address for a party as shall be specified by like notice).
(c) INTERPRETATION. When a reference is made in this Agreement to
Sections, such reference shall be to a Section to this Agreement unless
otherwise indicated. The headings contained in this Agreement are for
reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or
interpretation of this Agreement. Wherever the words "include", "includes"
or "including" are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be
followed by the words "without limitation".
(d) COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement,
and shall become effective when one or more of the counterparts have been
signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other party, it being
understood that each party need not sign the same counterpart.
(e) ENTIRE AGREEMENT; NO THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARIES. This Agreement
(including the documents and instruments referred to herein) (i) constitutes
the entire agreement and supersedes all prior agreements
<PAGE> 11
11
and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to
the subject matter hereof and (ii) is not intended to confer upon any person
other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder.
(f) GOVERNING LAW. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware regardless of the laws
that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law
thereof.
9. STOCKHOLDER CAPACITY. No person executing this Agreement who is or
becomes during the term hereof a director or officer of the Company makes any
agreement or understanding herein in his capacity as such director or officer.
Each Stockholder signs solely in his capacity as the record holder and
beneficial owner of, or the trustee of a trust whose beneficiaries are the
beneficial owners of, such Stockholder's Subject Shares and nothing herein
shall limit or affect any actions taken by a Stockholder in his capacity as an
officer or director of the Company to the extent specifically permitted by the
Merger Agreement.
10. ENFORCEMENT. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in
the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in
accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is
accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or
injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically
the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of the United States
located in the State of Delaware or in a Delaware state court, this being in
addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
In addition, each of the parties hereto (i) consents to submit such party to
the personal jurisdiction of any Federal court located in the State of Delaware
or any Delaware state court in the event any dispute arises out of this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) agrees that such
party will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion
or other request for leave from any such court, (iii) agrees that such party
will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or the transactions
contemplated hereby in any court other than a Federal court sitting in the
state of Delaware or a Delaware state court and (iv) waives any right to trial
by jury with respect to
