                              Item 5. Other Events

         Granite Broadcasting Corporation ("Granite") entered into definite
agreements with The Michael Lincoln Charitable Remainder Unitrust and The James
J. Gabbert Charitable Remainder Unitrust, each dated as of June 26, 1998, to
acquire 49% of the outstanding stock of Pacific FM Incorporated ("Pacific"), the
owner of KOFY-TV, the WB affiliated station serving the San
Francisco-Oakland-San Jose California television market ("KOFY"). Granite
previously entered into a definitive agreement with Pacific, James J. Gabbert
and Michael P. Lincoln to acquire the other 51% of the outstanding stock of
Pacific. The total purchase price of all the stock of Pacific will be $143.8
million in cash, subject to certain adjustments. In addition, the Company will
pay $30.0 million to the principal shareholders of Pacific for a covenant not to
compete in the San Francisco-Oakland-San Jose television market for a period of
five years from the closing of Granite's acquisition of KOFY. Copies of the
agreements with The Michael Lincoln Charitable Remainder Unitrust and The James
J. Gabbert Charitable Remainder Unitrust are attached hereto as Exhibits 2.3 and
2.4, respectively, and are hereby incorporated by reference herein.

         The consummation of the KOFY acquisition is contingent on, among other
things, approval by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") and other
customary closing conditions. On June 24, 1998, Granite received an initial
order from the FCC granting the transfer of control of Pacific to Granite. In so
doing, the FCC granted a temporary waiver of the FCC's duopoly rules permitting
Granite's common ownership of both KOFY and KNTV, the ABC station serving the
San Jose, California television market, provided that Granite files an
application with the FCC to bring it into 



                                       2

compliance with the FCC's duopoly rules within nine months of the acquistion of
KOFY. The acquisition of KOFY is expected to be completed early in the third
quarter of 1998.

         Granite previously announced that on February 19, 1998, Granite and
certain of Granite's subsidiaries entered into a definitive agreement with
Freedom Communications, Inc. ("Freedom") to sell the assets of WWMT-TV, the CBS
affiliated station serving the Grand Rapids-Kalamazoo-Battle Creek, Michigan
television market ("WWMT") and WLAJ-TV, the ABC affiliated station serving the
Lansing, Michigan television market ("WLAJ") for $170.0 million in the
aggregate. On June 30, 1998, the FCC order granting its consent to the
assignment of WWMT from Granite to Freedom became final. In addition, on June
24, 1998, the FCC granted an initial order approving the sale of WLAJ to
Freedom. The disposition of WWMT and WLAJ is expected to be completed early in
the third quarter of 1998.

         On June 10, 1998, Granite entered into a new credit agreement (the
"Credit Agreement") which provides for a senior secured revolving credit
facility of $260,000,000 and borrowings of up to $240,000,000 on an uncommitted
basis. The Credit Agreement will be used for acquisitions and other corporate
purposes. A copy of the Credit Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.35 and
is hereby incorporated by reference herein.

     11. Survival; Indemnification.

          11.1 Survival. The several representations and warranties of the 
parties contained in this Agreement (or in any document delivered in 
connection herewith) shall be deemed to have been made on the date of this 
Agreement and on the Closing Date, shall survive the Closing Date and shall 
remain operative and in full force and effect without limitation.

          11.2 Seller's Indemnification. Seller agrees to indemnify, defend and
hold Buyer and its Affiliates harmless from and against any and all loss, cost,
Liability, Tax, damage and expenses (including reasonable legal and other
expenses incident thereto) resulting from breach of Seller's representations,
warranties, covenants or agreements (without reference to any "materiality"
limiting or qualifying contained therein) contained in this Agreement or any
instruments delivered in connection herewith.

          11.3 Buyer's Indemnification. From and after the Closing, Buyer agrees
to indemnify, defend and hold Seller harmless from and against any and all loss,
cost, Liability, damage and expense (including reasonable legal and other
expenses incident thereto) resulting from Buyer's breach of any of its


                                      30

<PAGE>


representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement or 
any instrument delivered in connection herewith.

          11.4 Indemnification Claim. Upon obtaining knowledge of any claim 
or demand which has given rise to, or could reasonably give rise to, a claim 
for indemnification hereunder, the party seeking indemnification 
("Indemnitee") shall promptly give written notice ("Notice of Claim") of such 
claim or demand to the party or parties it is seeking indemnification from 
("Indemnitor"). Indemnitee shall furnish to the Indemnitor in reasonable 
detail such information as Indemnitee may have with respect to such 
indemnification claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other 
pleading which may have been served on it and any written claim, demand, 
invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same). Subject 
to the limitations set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, no failure or delay by 
Indemnitee in the performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise 
affect the obligation of Indemnitor to indemnify and hold Indemnitee 
harmless, except to the extent that such failure or delay shall have 
materially adversely affected Indemnitor's ability to defend against, settle 
or satisfy any Liability, 


                                      31

<PAGE>


damage, loss, claim or demand for which Indemnitee is entitled to 
indemnification hereunder.

          11.5 Notice of Claim. If the claim or demand set forth in the 
Notice of Claim given by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.4 hereof is a 
claim or demand asserted by a third party, Indemnitor shall have fifteen (15) 
days after the Date of Notice of Claim to notify Indemnitee in writing of its 
election to defend such third party claim or demand on behalf of the 
Indemnitee. If Indemnitor elects to defend such third party claim or demand, 
Indemnitee shall make available to Indemnitor and his agents and 
representatives all records and other materials which are reasonably required 
in the defense of such third party claim or demand and shall otherwise 
cooperate with, and assist Indemnitor in the defense of, such third party 
claim or demand, and so long as Indemnitor is defending such third party 
claim in good faith, Indemnitee shall not pay, settle or compromise such 
third party claim or demand. If Indemnitor elects to defend such third party 
claim or demand, Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the 
defense of such third party claim or demand, at Indemnitee's own expense. In 
the event, however, that Indemnitee reasonably determines that representation 
by counsel to Indemnitor 


                                      32

<PAGE>


of both Indemnitor and Indemnitee may present such counsel with a conflict of 
interest, or where non-monetary relief is being sought against Indemnitee by 
a third party, then such Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent 
or defend it in any such action or proceeding and Indemnitor will pay the 
fees and disbursements of such counsel; provided, however, that Indemnitor 
shall not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one 
separate law firm for all Indemnitees in any jurisdiction in any single 
action or proceeding. If Indemnitor does not elect to defend such third party 
claim or demand or does not defend such third party claim or demand in good 
faith, Indemnitee shall have the right, in addition to any other right or 
remedy it may have hereunder, at Indemnitor's expense, to defend such third 
party claim or demand; provided, however, that (i) Indemnitee shall not have 
any obligation to participate in the defense of, or defend, any such third 
party claim or demand; and (ii) Indemnitee's defense of or its participation 
in the defense of any such third party claim or demand shall not in any way 
diminish or lessen the obligations of Indemnitor under the agreements of 
indemnification set forth in this Section 15.

Agreement or any other document executed in connection therewith).

               12.1.5 By Buyer Upon Breach. Subject to Section 14.1, by Buyer:
if (a) Seller is in material breach of this Agreement; and (b) Buyer is not then

opportunity to contest such disclosure at the Buyer's expense.

          13.2 Buyer Confidentiality. Prior to the earlier of: (a) three (3)

<PAGE>


the negotiation and performance of this Agreement (other than information in 
the public domain not as the result of a breach of this Agreement), as 
confidential and shall not disclose, and shall cause Buyer's Representatives 
not to disclose, such information to any third party (other than Buyer's

authorized representatives of Pacific; (x) as necessary to the performance of

confidential nature of such information and shall request that the 
confidentiality of such information be preserved.

          13.3 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge that the 
damages the other parties would sustain in the event of any violation of the 
provisions of this Section 13 are difficult or impossible to ascertain. 
Accordingly, the parties hereby agree that each party shall be entitled, in 
addition to any other remedy or damages available to it in the event of any 
such violation, to injunctive relief to restrain such violation of this 
Section 13 by any other party or any Person intended to be subject to the

initially fixed for Closing as set forth herein, then the Closing Date shall

representations, warranties, covenants or agreements under this Agreement or any
instrument delivered in connection herewith.

          11.4 Indemnification Claim. Upon obtaining knowledge of any claim or
demand which has given rise to, or could reasonably give rise to, a claim for 
indemnification hereunder, the party seeking indemnification ("Indemnitee") 
shall promptly give written notice ("Notice of Claim") of such claim or 
demand to the party or parties it is seeking indemnification from 
("Indemnitor"). Indemnitee shall furnish to the Indemnitor in reasonable 
detail such information as Indemnitee may have with respect to such 
indemnification claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other 
pleading which may have been served on it and any written claim, demand, 
invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same). Subject 
to the limitations set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, no failure or delay by 
Indemnitee in the performance of the foregoing shall reduce or otherwise 
affect the obligation of Indemnitor to indemnify and hold Indemnitee 
harmless, except to the extent that such failure or delay shall have 
materially adversely affected Indemnitor's ability to defend against, settle 
or satisfy any Liability,

                                       31

<PAGE>

damage, loss, claim or demand for which Indemnitee is entitled to 
indemnification hereunder.

          11.5 Notice of Claim. If the claim or demand set forth in the Notice
of Claim given by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 11.4 hereof is a claim or
demand asserted by a third party, Indemnitor shall have fifteen (15) days after
the Date of Notice of Claim to notify Indemnitee in writing of its election 
to defend such third party claim or demand on behalf of the Indemnitee. If 
Indemnitor elects to defend such third party claim or demand, Indemnitee 
shall make available to Indemnitor and his agents and representatives all 
records and other materials which are reasonably required in the defense of 
such third party claim or demand and shall otherwise cooperate with, and 
assist Indemnitor in the defense of, such third party claim or demand, and so 
long as Indemnitor is defending such third party claim in good faith, 
Indemnitee shall not pay, settle or compromise such third party claim or 
demand. If Indemnitor elects to defend such third party claim or demand, 
Indemnitee shall have the right to participate in the defense of such third 
party claim or demand, at Indemnitee's own expense. In the event, however, 
that Indemnitee reasonably determines that representation by counsel to 
Indemnitor

                                       32
<PAGE>

of both Indemnitor and Indemnitee may present such counsel with a conflict of 
interest, or where non-monetary relief is being sought against Indemnitee by 
a third party, then such Indemnitee may employ separate counsel to represent 
or defend it in any such action or proceeding and Indemnitor will pay the 
fees and disbursements of such counsel; provided, however, that Indemnitor 
shall not be required to pay the fees and disbursements of more than one 
separate law firm for all Indemnitees in any jurisdiction in any single 
action or proceeding. If Indemnitor does not elect to defend such third party 
claim or demand or does not defend such third party claim or demand in good 
faith, Indemnitee shall have the right, in addition to any other right or 
remedy it may have hereunder, at Indemnitor's expense, to defend such third 
party claim or demand; provided, however, that (i) Indemnitee shall not have 
any obligation to participate in the defense of, or defend, any such third 
party claim or demand; and (ii) Indemnitee's defense of or its participation 
in the defense of any such third party claim or demand shall not in any way 
diminish or lessen the obligations of Indemnitor under the agreements of 
indemnification set forth in this Section 15.

                                       33

          11.6 Date of Notice of Claim. The term "Date of Notice of Claim" shall
mean the date the Notice of Claim is effective pursuant to Section 14.5 of this
Agreement.

          11.7 Consent of Indemnitee. No claim giving rise to a Notice of Claim
shall be compromised or settled except with the prior written consent of the
Indemnitee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Agreement or any document executed in connection therewith).

               12.1.5 By Buyer Upon Breach. Subject to Section 14.1, by Buyer:
if (a) Seller is in material breach of this Agreement; and (b) Buyer is not then

hereof until three (3) years after the Closing Date, maintain confidential and
not use for any purpose other than the operation of KOFY, any information
relating to KOFY (other than information in the public domain not as the result
of a breach of this Agreement), its business and operations except: (a) for
disclosure to authorized representatives of Buyer; (b) as necessary to the
performance of this Agreement; (c) as authorized in writing by the Buyer; or (d)
to the extent that disclosure is required by law or the order of any
Governmental Authority under color of law; provided, that, prior to disclosing
any information pursuant to this clause (d), the disclosing Person shall have
given prior written notice thereof to Buyer and provided Buyer with the
opportunity to contest such disclosure at the Buyer's expense.

          13.2 Buyer Confidentiality. Prior to the earlier of: (a) three (3) 
years from the date hereof; and (b) the Closing, Buyer shall keep and shall 
cause its Affiliates and agents (collectively, "Buyer's Representatives") to 
keep all information with respect to Pacific and/or KOFY obtained in 
connection with

                                       36
<PAGE>

the negotiation and performance of this Agreement (other than information in 
the public domain not as the result of a breach of this Agreement), as 
confidential and shall not disclose, and shall cause Buyer's Representatives 
not to disclose, such information to any third party (other than Buyer's 
financing sources or potential financing sources or as may be required in 
connection with any financing) without Pacific's express prior written 
consent, except: (w) for disclosure to authorized representatives of Pacific; 
(x) as necessary to the performance of this Agreement; (y) as authorized in 
writing by Pacific; or (z) to the extent that disclosure is required by law 
or the order of any Governmental Authority under color of law; provided, 
that, prior to disclosing any information pursuant to this clause (z), the 
disclosing Person shall have given prior written notice thereof to Pacific 
and provided Pacific with the opportunity to contest such disclosure at 
Pacific's expense. If the transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not 
consummated, Buyer will return to Pacific all confidential information 
obtained from Pacific by Buyer or Buyer's Representatives. Buyer shall advise 
any third party to whom disclosure of confidential information is made 
hereunder of the

                                       37
<PAGE>

confidential nature of such information and shall request that the 
confidentiality of such information be preserved.

          13.3 Specific Performance. The parties hereby acknowledge that the 
damages the other parties would sustain in the event of any violation of the 
provisions of this Section 13 are difficult or impossible to ascertain. 
Accordingly, the parties hereby agree that each party shall be entitled, in 
addition to any other remedy or damages available to it in the event of any 
such violation, to injunctive relief to restrain such violation of this 
Section 13 by any other party or any Person intended to be subject to the 
restriction contained herein which may be acting for or with such other party 
or such other Person.

     14. Miscellaneous. 

          14.1 Grace Period.

               14.1.1 Default Grace Period. Notwithstanding any other provision
of this Agreement, if a default by any party hereto can be cured or a condition
satisfied within fifteen (15) business days after the time initially fixed for
Closing as set forth herein, then the Closing Date shall be extended for the
period (not to exceed fifteen (15) business days) required for such party to
make such cure or satisfaction; provided that such

                                       38
<PAGE>

default does not, and would not reasonably be expected to, have a material 
adverse effect on KOFY, Pacific, the broadcasting assets of KOFY or Buyer. If 
such cure or satisfaction cannot be, or is not, completed within fifteen (15) 
business days after such initial time, then the rights of the parties shall 
be governed by the applicable provisions of this Agreement.

               14.1.2 Final Order Grace Period. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary contained herein, in the event that the FCC Consent shall have been

July 1, 1998, then the Outside Closing Date shall be extended by forty-five (45)
days.

          14.2 Costs, Expenses, Etc. Except as provided elsewhere herein each 
of the parties hereto shall bear all costs and expenses incurred by it in 
connection with this Agreement and in the preparation for and consummation of 
the transactions provided for herein. The payment of all sales, use, transfer 
or similar Taxes, documentation stamps, or other charges imposed by any and

Seller. All recording costs and fees incurred in connection with the clearing

          14.3 Further Assurances. Each party shall, from time to time, upon the
request of another party, execute, acknowledge and deliver to the other party

<PAGE>


     exceeding its Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount of the Additional

     Supplement to be used for the purposes identified in subsection 2.5A.  The
     maximum cumulative aggregate permitted amount of the Additional Credit
     Commitments is $240,000,000; provided that the Additional Credit
     Commitments of the Additional Credit Lenders shall be adjusted to give
     effect to any assignments of the Additional Credit Commitments pursuant to
     subsection 10.1B; provided, further that the maximum aggregate amount of
     the Additional Credit Commitments shall be reduced from time to time by the

     shall be subject to the limitation set forth in the third proviso of
     subsection 2.1A(i).  Each Additional Credit Lender's Additional Credit

     (i) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default shall have occurred
     and be continuing, and (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitments shall not have
     terminated or been reduced to zero.  Within 15 Business Days of such
     request, each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent, whether or not,
     in the exercise of its sole discretion, it is willing to commit to make
     Additional Credit Loans and the maximum amount to which it is willing to
     commit and the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify Company and each
     other Lender of each Lender's decision and shall allocate the Additional
     Credit Commitments among the Lenders by Administrative Agent following
     consultation with Company.  Any Lender that does not so notify the
     Administrative Agent within such period shall not be deemed to have
     committed to any such requested Additional Credit Commitments.  If the
     Lenders are not willing to commit to the requested Additional Commitments
     in the requested amount, then within 45 Business Days of Company's original
     request, with notice thereof to the other Lenders, another one or more
     financial institutions reasonably acceptable to the Company and the
     Administrative Agent (each a ``New Lender'') may commit to provide the
     remainder of the required Additional Credit Commitment.

          Upon receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders
     and Company that the Lenders, or sufficient Lenders and New Lenders, have

     Commitments requested by Company (or such lesser amount as Company shall

     $1,000,000), then, provided, that (i) no Event of Default or Potential
     Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at such time or
     after giving effect to the requested Additional Credit Commitments, and
     (ii) the Revolving Loan Commitments shall not have terminated or been
     reduced to zero, Company, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders willing to

three Business Days in advance of the proposed Funding Date (in the case of a

<PAGE>



subsection 2.2D.  In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Borrowing,
Company may give Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the required time of
any proposed borrowing under this subsection 2.1B; provided that such notice
shall be promptly confirmed in writing by delivery of a Notice of Borrowing to
Administrative Agent on or before the applicable Funding Date.

     Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to
Company in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that
Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly
authorized officer or other person authorized to borrow on behalf of Company or
for otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.1B, and upon funding
of Loans by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such
telephonic notice Company shall have effected Loans hereunder.

     Company shall notify Administrative Agent prior to the funding of any Loans
in the event that any of the matters to which Company is required to certify in
the applicable Notice of Borrowing is no longer true and correct as of the
applicable Funding Date, and the acceptance by Company of the proceeds of any
Loans shall constitute a re-certification by Company, as of the applicable
Funding Date, as to the matters to which Company is required to certify in the
applicable Notice of Borrowing.

     Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice
of Borrowing for a Eurodollar Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof)

and Company shall be bound to make a borrowing in accordance therewith.

     C.   Disbursement of Funds.  All Loans under this Agreement shall be made
by Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their respective Pro Rata
Shares, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default
by any other Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested
hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender to make the particular type of
Loan requested be increased or decreased as a result of a default by any other
Lender in that other Lender's obligation to make a Loan requested hereunder. 
Promptly after receipt by Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing pursuant
to subsection 2.1B (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof), Administrative Agent
shall notify each Lender of the proposed borrowing.  Each Lender shall make the
amount of its Loan available to Administrative Agent, in same day funds, at the
office of Administrative Agent located at One Bankers Trust Plaza, New York, New
York, not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York time) on the applicable Funding Date. 
Except as provided in subsection 3.3B with respect to Revolving Loans used to
reimburse any Issuing Lender for the amount of a drawing under a Letter of
Credit issued by it, upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent
specified in subsections 4.1 (in the case of Loans made on the Closing Date),
4.4 (in the case of Loans made on any Acquisition Closing Date) and 4.2 (in the
case of all Loans), Administrative Agent shall make the proceeds of such Loans
available to Company on the applicable Funding Date by causing an amount of same
day funds equal to the proceeds of all such Loans received by Administrative
Agent from 


                                          38

<PAGE>



Lenders to be credited to the account of Company at the office of Administrative
Agent specified in the preceding sentence.

     Unless Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to
the Funding Date for any Loans that such Lender does not intend to make
available to Administrative Agent the amount of such Lender's Loan requested on
such Funding Date, Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made
such amount available to Administrative Agent on such Funding Date and
Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, but shall not be obligated to,
make available to Company a corresponding amount on such Funding Date.  If such
corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by
such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such
corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon,
for each day from such Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to
Administrative Agent, at the customary rate set by Administrative Agent for the
correction of errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the
Base Rate.  If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon
Administrative Agent's demand therefor, Administrative Agent shall promptly
notify Company and Company shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to
Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from such
Funding Date until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent, at the
rate payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans.  Nothing in this
subsection 2.1C shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to
fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that Company may
have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

     D.   Notes.  Company shall execute and deliver to each Lender (or to
Administrative Agent for that Lender) on the Closing Date a Revolving Note
substantially in the form of Exhibit V annexed hereto to evidence that Lender's
Revolving Loans, in the principal amount of that Lender's Revolving Loan
Commitment and with other appropriate insertions.  Upon the execution and
delivery of any Additional Credit Facility Supplement pursuant to
subsection 4.5, Company shall execute and deliver to each applicable Additional
Credit Lender (or to Administrative Agent for that Lender), an Additional Credit
Note substantially in the form of Exhibit IV annexed hereto to evidence that
Additional Credit Lender's Additional Credit Commitment (as set forth in the
applicable Additional Credit Facility Supplement) and with other appropriate
insertions.

     E.   Reallocation of Pro Rata Shares.  On the Closing Date, each Lender
that will have a greater Pro Rata Share upon the Closing Date than its Pro Rata
Share (under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) immediately prior
to the Closing Date (including any Lender not party to the Existing Credit
Agreement immediately prior to the Closing Date) (each a ``Purchasing Lender''),
without executing an Assignment Agreement, shall be deemed to have automatically
purchased assignments pro rata from each Departing Lender and each Lender that
will have a smaller Pro Rata Share upon the Closing Date (each a ``Selling
Lender'') in all such Selling Lenders' rights and obligations under this
Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including with respect to Revolving Loan
Commitments, the commitments of Lenders to purchase participations in the
Letters of 


                                          39

<PAGE>


Credit and outstanding Revolving Loans (collectively, except as set forth below,
the ``Assigned Rights and Obligations'') so that, after giving effect to such
assignments, each Lender shall have its respective Pro Rata Share as set forth
in Schedule 2.1 (as adjusted as required under the definition of Pro Rata Share)
of the Assigned Rights and Obligations.  Each such purchase hereunder shall be
at par for a purchase price equal to the principal amount of Loans and without
recourse, representation or warranty, except that, each Selling Lender shall be
deemed to represent and warrant to each Purchasing Lender that the Assigned
Rights and Obligations of such Selling Lender are not subject to any Liens
created by that Selling Lender.

          Administrative Agent shall calculate the net amount to be paid or
received by each Lender in connection with the assignments effected hereunder on
the Closing Date.  Each Purchasing Lender required to make a payment shall make
the net amount of its required payment available to Administrative Agent, in
same day funds, at the office of Administrative Agent located at One Bankers
Trust Plaza, New York, New York, not later than 12:00 p.m. (New York time) on
the Closing Date.  Administrative Agent shall distribute on the Closing Date the
proceeds of such amounts to the Selling Lenders entitled to receive payments,
pro rata in proportion to the amount each Selling Lender is entitled to receive
at the primary address set forth below such Selling Lender's name on the
signature pages hereof or at such other address as such Selling Lender may
request in writing to Administrative Agent.

2.2  Interest on the Loans.

     A.   Rate of Interest.  Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.6 and
2.7, each Additional Credit Loan and each Revolving Loan shall bear interest on
the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date made through maturity (whether
by acceleration or otherwise) at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate
or the Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, as the case may be.  The applicable basis for
determining the rate of interest with respect to any Loan shall be selected by
Company initially at the time a Notice of Borrowing is given with respect to
such Loan pursuant to subsection 2.1B. The basis for determining the interest
rate with respect to any Loan may be changed from time to time pursuant to
subsection 2.2D. If on any day a Loan is outstanding with respect to which
notice has not been delivered to Administrative Agent in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement specifying the applicable basis for determining the rate
of interest, then for that day that Loan shall bear interest determined by
reference to the Base Rate.

     Subject to the provisions of subsections 2.2E and 2.7, the Loans shall bear
interest through maturity as follows:

          (i)  if a Base Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Base Rate plus the

<PAGE>


          (ii) if a Eurodollar Rate Loan, then at the sum of the Adjusted
     Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time
     during the applicable Interest Period.

     The Applicable Margin at any time shall be that determined with reference
to the most recent Compliance Certificate delivered to Administrative Agent by
Company, as set forth in the definition of ``Pricing Leverage Ratio'', any such
change to become effective on the day following delivery of such Compliance
Certificate to Administrative Agent; provided that, notwithstanding anything
herein to the contrary, during the period commencing on and as of the Closing
Date and continuing through the date of delivery of such Compliance Certificate
to Administrative Agent for the fiscal quarter ended on September 30, 1998, the
Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans shall be 1.25% and the Applicable Margin
for Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be 2.50%.

     B.   Interest Periods.  In connection with each Eurodollar Rate Loan,
Company may, pursuant to the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, as the case may be, select an interest period (each an
``Interest Period'') to be applicable to such Loan, which Interest Period shall
be, at Company's option, either a one, two, three or six month period, in the
case of a Eurodollar Rate Loan; provided that:

          (i)  the initial Interest Period for any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall
     commence on the Funding Date in respect of such Loan, in the case of a Loan
     initially made as a Eurodollar Rate Loan, or on the date specified in the
     applicable Notice of Conversion/ Continuation, in the case of a Loan
     converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan;

          (ii) in the case of immediately successive Interest Periods applicable
     to a Eurodollar Rate Loan continued as such pursuant to a Notice of
     Conversion/Continuation, each successive Interest Period shall commence on
     the day on which the next preceding Interest Period expires;

          (iii)     if an Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that
     is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
     succeeding Business Day; provided that, in the case of a Eurodollar Rate
     Loan, if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a
     Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day
     occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next
     preceding Business Day;

          (iv) any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Rate Loan that begins on the
     last Business Day of a calendar month (or on a day for which there is no
     numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such
     Interest Period) shall, subject to clause (v) of this subsection 2.2B, end
     on the last Business Day of a calendar month;


                                          41

<PAGE>


          (v)  no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Loans shall
     extend beyond December 31, 2005;

          (vi) no Interest Period with respect to any portion of the Revolving
     Loans shall extend beyond the date on which a permanent reduction of the
     Revolving Loan Commitments is scheduled to occur unless the sum of (a) the
     aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans plus
     (b) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans that are Eurodollar
     Rate Loans with Interest Periods expiring on or before such date plus (c)
     the excess of the Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect over the
     aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans then outstanding equals or
     exceeds the permanent reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments that is
     scheduled to occur on such date;

          (vii)     no Interest Period with respect to any portion of any
     Additional Credit Loans shall extend beyond the date on which a permanent
     reduction of the corresponding Additional Credit Commitments is scheduled
     to occur unless the sum of (a) the aggregate principal amount of all
     Additional Credit Loans corresponding to such Additional Credit Commitments
     that are Base Rate Loans plus (b) the aggregate principal amount of all
     Additional Credit Loans corresponding to such Additional Credit Commitments
     that are Eurodollar Rate Loans with Interest Periods expiring on or before
     such date plus (c) the excess of such Additional Credit Commitments then in
     effect over the aggregate principal amount of Additional Credit Loans
     corresponding thereto then outstanding equals or exceeds the permanent
     reduction of such Additional Credit Commitments that is scheduled to occur
     on such date;

          (viii)    there shall be no more than 10 Interest Periods relating to
     Eurodollar Rate Loans or any combination thereof outstanding at any time;
     and

          (ix) in the event Company fails to specify an Interest Period for any
     Eurodollar Rate Loan in the applicable Notice of Borrowing or Notice of
     Conversion/Continuation, Company shall be deemed to have selected an
     Interest Period of one month.

     C.   Interest Payments.  Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2E,
interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on and to each Interest
Payment Date applicable to that Loan, upon any prepayment of that Loan (to the
extent accrued on the amount being prepaid) and at maturity (including final
maturity).

     D.   Conversion or Continuation.  Subject to the provisions of subsection
2.6, Company shall have the option (i) to convert at any time all or any part of
its outstanding Additional Credit Loans or Revolving Loans equal to $1,000,000
and integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount from Loans bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to one basis to Loans bearing
interest at a rate determined by reference to an alternative basis or (ii) upon
the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Eurodollar 


                                          42

<PAGE>


Rate Loan, to continue all or any portion of such Loan equal to $1,000,000 and
integral multiples of $500,000 in excess of that amount as a Eurodollar Rate
Loan; provided, however, that a Eurodollar Rate Loan may only be converted into
a Base Rate Loan on the expiration date of an Interest Period applicable
thereto; and provided, further that no Loan may be made as or converted into a
Base Rate Loan during the period from December 24 of any year to and including
January 7 of the immediately succeeding year for the purpose of investing in
securities bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to any other basis
for the purpose of arbitrage or speculation.

     Company shall deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative
Agent no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York time) at least one Business Day in
advance of the proposed conversion date (in the case of a conversion to a Base
Rate Loan) and at least three Business Days in advance of the proposed
conversion/continuation date (in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation
of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan).  A Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall specify
(i) the proposed conversion/continuation date (which shall be a Business Day),
(ii) the amount and type of the Loan to be converted/continued, (iii) the nature
of the proposed conversion/continuation, (iv) in the case of a conversion to, or
a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the requested Interest Period, and
(v) in the case of a conversion to, or a continuation of, a Eurodollar Rate
Loan, that no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
continuing.  In lieu of delivering the above-described Notice of Conversion/
Continuation, Company may give Administrative Agent telephonic notice by the
required time of any proposed conversion/continuation under this subsection
2.2D; provided that such notice shall be promptly confirmed in writing by
delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation to Administrative Agent on or
before the proposed conversion/continuation date.

     Neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall incur any liability to
Company in acting upon any telephonic notice referred to above that
Administrative Agent believes in good faith to have been given by a duly
authorized officer or other person authorized to act on behalf of Company or for
otherwise acting in good faith under this subsection 2.2D, and upon conversion
or continuation of the applicable basis for determining the interest rate with
respect to any Loans in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to any such
telephonic notice Company shall have effected a conversion or continuation, as
the case may be, hereunder.

     Except as otherwise provided in subsections 2.6B, 2.6C and 2.6G, a Notice
of Conversion/Continuation for conversion to, or continuation of, a Eurodollar
Rate Loan (or telephonic notice in lieu thereof) shall be irrevocable on and
after the related Interest Rate Determination Date, and Company shall be bound
to effect a conversion or continuation in accordance therewith.

     E.   Default Rate.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any
Event of Default, the outstanding principal amount of all Loans, any interest
payments thereon not paid when due and any fees and other amounts then due and
payable hereunder, shall thereafter bear interest (including post-petition
interest in any proceeding under the 


                                          43

<PAGE>




Bankruptcy Code or other applicable bankruptcy laws) payable upon demand at a
rate that is 2% per annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under
this Agreement with respect to the applicable Loans (or, in the case of any such
fees and other amounts, at a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the
interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for Base Rate Loans);
provided that, in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, upon the expiration of the
Interest Period in effect at the time any such increase in interest rate is
effective such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall thereupon become Base Rate Loans and
shall thereafter bear interest payable upon demand at a rate which is 2% per
annum in excess of the interest rate otherwise payable under this Agreement for
Base Rate Loans.  Payment or acceptance of the increased rates of interest
provided for in this subsection 2.2E is not a permitted alternative to timely
payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise
prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or any Lender.

     F.   Computation of Interest.  Interest on the Loans shall be computed
(i) in the case of Base Rate Loans, on the basis of a 365-day or 366-day year,
as the case may be, and (ii) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans, on the basis
of a 360-day year, in each case for the actual number of days elapsed in the
period during which it accrues.  In computing interest on any Loan, the date of
the making of such Loan or the first day of an Interest Period applicable to
such Loan or, with respect to a Base Rate Loan being converted from a Eurodollar
Rate Loan, the date of conversion of such Eurodollar Rate Loan to such Base Rate
Loan shall be included, and the date of payment of such Loan or the expiration
date of an Interest Period applicable to such Loan or, with respect to a Base
Rate Loan being converted to a Eurodollar Rate Loan, the date of conversion of
such Base Rate Loan to such Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be excluded; provided
that if a Loan is repaid on the same day on which it is made, one day's interest
shall be paid on that Loan.

2.3  Fees.

     A.   Commitment Fees.

          (i)  Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, for distribution
     to each Lender in proportion to that Lender's Pro Rata Share, commitment

     aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding plus (y) the
     Letter of Credit Usage, multiplied by (b) 1/4 of 1% per annum, such
     commitment fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the
     actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on
     January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year, commencing on

     in which the Pricing Leverage Ratio is greater than 4.00:1.00 and (2) to
     1/2 of 1% per annum during any period in which the Pricing Leverage Ratio
     is greater than 7.00:1.00; provided further 


                                          44

     Compliance Certificate to Administrative Agent for the fiscal quarter ended

     respectively, such per annum percentage shall be 1/2 of 1%); and

          (ii) Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent, with respect to
     the Additional Credit Commitments made under each Additional Credit
     Facility Supplement, for distribution to each Additional Credit Lender in
     proportion to that Additional Credit Lender's Pro Rata Share, commitment
     fees for the period from and including the applicable Additional Credit
     Closing Date to and excluding the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination
     Date (a) the average of the daily excess of the applicable Additional
     Credit Commitments over the aggregate principal amount of Additional Credit
     Loans outstanding thereunder, multiplied by (b) 1/4 of 1% per annum, such
     commitment fees to be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the
     actual number of days elapsed and to be payable quarterly in arrears on
     January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year, commencing on
     the first such date to occur after the applicable Additional Credit
     Facility Closing Date, and on the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination
     Date (provided however that such per annum percentage shall be increased to
     3/8 of 1% per annum during any period in which the Pricing Leverage Ratio
     is greater than 4.00:1.00 and (2) to 1/2 of 1% per annum during any period
     in which the Pricing Leverage Ratio is greater than 7.00:1.00; provided
     further however that notwithstanding anything in the foregoing to the
     contrary, during the period commencing on and as of the Closing Date and
     continuing through the date of delivery of the financial statements and
     related Compliance Certificate to Administrative Agent for the fiscal
     quarter ended on September 30, 1998 pursuant to subsections 6.1(i) and
     6.1(iii), respectively, such per annum percentage shall be 1/2 of 1%).

Administrative Agent.  Company agrees to pay to Administrative Agent such
additional fees at the times and for the purposes as may be set forth in the
Additional Credit Facility Supplements.

               (a)  Company may, upon not less than one Business Day's prior
          written or telephonic notice, in the case of Base Rate Loans, and
          three Business Days' prior written or telephonic notice, in the case
          of Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case confirmed in writing to

          transmit by facsimile, telegram, telex or telephone to each Lender),
          at any time and from time to time prepay any Loans on any Business Day
          in whole or in part in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000 and
          integral multiples of $250,000 in excess of that amount; provided,
          however, that if Company prepays a Eurodollar Rate Loan other than on
          the expiration of the Interest Period applicable thereto Company shall
          compensate Lenders for all reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities
          in accordance with subsection 2.6D.  Notice of prepayment having been
          given as aforesaid, the principal amount of the Loans specified in
          such notice shall become due and payable on the prepayment date
          specified therein.  Any such voluntary prepayment shall be applied as
          specified in subsection 2.4B(iv).

               (b)  In the event Company is entitled to replace a non-consenting
          Lender pursuant to subsection 10.6B, Company shall have the right,
          upon five Business Days' prior written notice to Administrative Agent
          (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of
          the Lenders), to prepay all Loans, together with accrued and unpaid
          interest, fees and other amounts owing to such Lender in accordance
          with subsection 10.6B so long as (1) in the case of the prepayment of
          the Revolving Loans of any Lender pursuant to this subsection
          2.4B(i)(b), the Revolving Loan Commitment of such Lender is terminated
          concurrently with such prepayment pursuant to subsection 2.4B(ii)(c)
          (at which time Schedule 2.1 shall be deemed modified to reflect the
          changed Revolving Loan Commitments), (2) in the case of the prepayment
          of the Additional Credit Loans of any Lender pursuant to this
          subsection 2.4B(i)(b), the Additional Credit Commitments of such
          Lender are terminated concurrently with such prepayment pursuant to

<PAGE>


          subsection 2.4B(ii)(c) (at which time Schedule A to the applicable
          Additional Credit Facility Supplements shall be deemed modified to
          reflect the changed Additional Credit Commitments), and (3) in the
          case of the prepayment of the Loans of any Lender, the consents
          required by subsection 10.6B in connection with the prepayment
          pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(i)(b) shall have been obtained, and
          at such time, such Lender shall no longer constitute a ``Lender'' for
          purposes of this Agreement, except with respect to indemnifications
          under this Agreement (including, without limitation, subsections 2.6D,
          2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 5.12, 10.3 and 10.4), which shall survive as to such
          Lender.

          (ii) Voluntary Reductions of Commitments.  Company may, upon not less
     than one Business Day prior written or telephonic notice confirmed in
     writing to Administrative Agent (which notice Administrative Agent will
     promptly transmit by facsimile, telegram, telex or telephone to each
     Lender),

               (a)  at any time and from time to time terminate in whole or
          permanently reduce in part, without premium or penalty, the Revolving
          Loan Commitments in an amount up to the amount by which the Revolving
          Loan Commitments exceeds the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan
          Commitments at the time of such proposed termination or reduction
          after giving effect to any payments or prepayments made on the date of
          such termination or reduction; provided that any such partial
          reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be in an aggregate
          minimum amount of $250,000 and integral multiples of $250,000 in
          excess of that amount.  Company's notice to Administrative Agent shall
          designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such termination
          or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction, and such
          termination or reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments shall be
          effective on the date specified in Company's notice and shall reduce
          the Revolving Loan Commitment of each Lender proportionately to its
          Pro Rata Share; and provided, further, that if the reduction in
          Revolving Loan Commitments will be accompanied by a repayment of any
          Eurodollar Rate Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii)(b), then
          Company shall have given three Business Days' prior written notice to
          Administrative Agent; and

               (b)  at any time and from time to time after each Additional
          Credit Closing Date, terminate in whole or permanently reduce in part,
          without premium or penalty, any Additional Credit Commitments in an
          amount up to the amount by which the Additional Credit Commitments
          exceeds the aggregate amount of Additional Credit Loans outstanding at
          the time of such proposed termination or reduction after giving effect
          to any payments or prepayments made on the date of such termination or
          reduction; provided that any such partial reduction of the Additional
          Credit Commitments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $250,000
          and integral multiples of $250,000 in excess of that amount.

          shall designate the date (which shall be a Business Day) of such
          termination or reduction and the amount of any partial reduction and
          the Additional Credit Commitment(s) which are to be so terminated or
          reduced, and such termination or reduction of the Additional Credit
          Commitments shall be effective on the date specified in Company's
          notice and shall reduce such Additional Credit Commitment of each
          Additional Credit Lender proportionately to its Pro Rata Share; and
          provided, further, that if the reduction in Additional Credit
          Commitments will be accompanied by a repayment of any Eurodollar Rate
          Loans pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii)(b), then Company shall have
          given three Business Days' prior written notice to Administrative
          Agent.

               (c)  In the event Company is entitled to replace a non-consenting
          Lender pursuant to subsection 10.6B, Company shall have the right,
          upon five Business Days' written notice to Administrative Agent (which
          notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the
          Lenders), to terminate the entire Revolving Loan Commitment and
          Additional Credit Commitments of such Lender, so long as (1) all
          Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest, fees and other
          amounts owing to such Lender are repaid, including without limitation
          amounts owing to such Lender pursuant to subsection 2.6D, pursuant to
          subsection 2.4B(i)(b) concurrently with the effectiveness of such
          termination (at which time Schedule 2.1 and Schedule A to any
          applicable Additional Credit Facility Supplement shall be deemed
          modified to reflect such changed amounts) and (2) the consents
          required by subsection 10.6B in connection with the prepayment
          pursuant to subsection 2.4B(i)(b) shall have been obtained, and at
          such time, such Lender shall no longer constitute a ``Lender'' for
          purposes of this Agreement, except with respect to indemnifications
          under this Agreement (including, without limitation, subsections 2.6D,
          2.7, 3.5, 3.6, 5.12, 10.3 and 10.4), which shall survive as to such
          Lender.

          (iii)     Mandatory Prepayments and Mandatory Reductions of
     Commitments.  The Loans shall be prepaid and/or the Commitments shall be
     permanently reduced in the amounts and under the circumstances set forth
     below, all such prepayments and/or reductions to be applied as set forth
     below or as more specifically provided in subsection 2.4B(iv):

               (a)  Prepayments and Reductions from Asset Sales.  No later than
          the second Business Day following the date of receipt by Company or
          any of its Subsidiaries of Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, Company
          shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds of
          such Asset Sale.  To the extent the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset
          Sale exceed the sum of:

                    (x) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of Loans and
                    the maximum aggregate amount which is then or at any time 


                                          49

                    thereafter may become available for drawing under all
                    Letters of Credit then outstanding; and

                    (y) $20,000,000;

          Company shall deposit and maintain such Net Cash Proceeds in a
          collateral account established pursuant to documentation reasonably
          satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Company, as Collateral for
          the Obligations; provided that such Net Cash Proceeds shall be
          released therefrom:

                    (A) at the request of Company, to the extent required to pay
                    the purchase price of any Acquisition permitted by
                    subsection 7.7(vi);

                    (B) so long as no Loans are outstanding and all outstanding
                    Letters of Credit have been cash collateralized, at the
                    request of Company  to repurchase or to redeem Subordinated
                    Indebtedness pursuant to subsection 7.5(i) and Exchangeable
                    Preferred Stock pursuant to subsection 7.5(iv); 

                    (C) at the request of Company, to prepay outstanding Loans
                    and cash collateralize Letters of Credit; and

                    (D) on the first Business Day following the Commitment
                    Reduction Date (as defined below) to Company, to the extent
                    not required to be applied to the prepayment of the Loans in
                    accordance with this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a).

          No later than the later to occur of (X) 170 days following the date of
          receipt by Company or any of its Subsidiaries of Cash Proceeds of any
          Asset Sale or (Y) 240 days after the date of such receipt in the event
          Company has entered into a definitive agreement with respect to an
          Acquisition prior to or within 120 days after such Asset Sale, which
          agreement is subject only to customary conditions (such later date,
          the ``Commitment Reduction Date''), Company shall apply any remaining
          Net Cash Proceeds in respect of such Asset Sale held in the collateral
          account under this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a) to repay the Loans and
          Company shall reduce the Commitments in an amount equal to the excess
          of the Net Cash Proceeds of such Asset Sale over the sum of:

                    (1) the purchase price of any Acquisition consummated within
                    either (a) 120 days prior to the consummation of such Asset
                    Sale (provided that such Acquisition was not financed with
                    the proceeds of any Loans or Additional Subordinated
                    Indebtedness) or (b) 120 days following the date of such
                    Asset Sale (or 240 days following the date of such Asset
                    Sale in the 


                                          50

<PAGE>

                    event Company has entered into a definitive agreement with
                    respect to such Acquisition prior to or within 120 days
                    following such Asset Sale, which agreement is subject only
                    to customary conditions);

                    (2) the aggregate principal amount of repurchases or
                    redemptions of Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to
                    subsection 7.5(i) and Exchangeable Preferred Stock pursuant
                    to subsection 7.5(iv) during the 170 day period following
                    such Asset Sale; and

                    (3) $10,000,000;

          (such amount, the ``Asset Sale Reduction Amount''); provided, that for
          purposes of calculating the Asset Sale Reduction Amount for any Asset
          Sale, any Asset Sales or redemptions or repurchases or portion of the
          amount set forth in clause (3) above included in calculating the Asset
          Sale Reduction Amount or the Permitted Repurchase Prepayment Amount in
          respect of any other Asset Sale or any issuance of Additional
          Subordinated Indebtedness shall be excluded from the foregoing clauses
          (1), (2) and (3), as applicable.

          Notwithstanding anything in this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a) to the
          contrary, Company shall not be permitted to apply any Net Cash
          Proceeds as set forth in the calculation of Asset Sale Reduction
          Amount unless such application may in each instance be so applied
          pursuant to the Related Documents without otherwise violating or
          conflicting with any applicable provision of any Related Document.

          Concurrently with any reduction of the Commitments pursuant to this
          subsection 2.4B(iii)(a), Company shall prepay the Loans to the extent
          required under subsection 2.4B(iii)(b).  Concurrently with any
          prepayment of the Loans and/or reduction of the Commitments pursuant
          to this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a), Company shall deliver to
          Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate demonstrating the
          derivation of the Net Cash Proceeds of the correlative Asset Sale from
          the gross sales price thereof and the calculation of the Asset Sale
          Reduction Amount.  In the event that Company shall, at any time after
          receipt of Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale requiring a prepayment
          and/or a reduction of Commitments pursuant to this subsection
          2.4B(iii)(a), determine that the prepayments and/or reductions of the
          Revolving Loan Commitments previously made in respect of such Asset
          Sale were in an aggregate amount less than that required by the terms
          of this subsection 2.4B(iii)(a), Company shall promptly make an
          additional prepayment of the Loans (and, if applicable, the
          Commitments shall be permanently reduced), in the manner described
          above in an amount equal to the amount of any such deficit, and
          Company shall concurrently therewith deliver to Administrative Agent
          an 


                                          51

<PAGE>


          Officers' Certificate demonstrating the derivation of the additional
          Net Cash Proceeds resulting in such deficit.

               (b)  Prepayments Due to Reductions or Restrictions of Revolving
          Loan Commitments and Additional Credit Commitments.  Company shall
          from time to time prepay (1) the Revolving Loans to the extent
          necessary to give effect to the limitations set forth in the second
          paragraph of subsection 2.1A(i) and (2) the Additional Credit Loans to
          the extent necessary to give effect to the limitations set forth in
          the second paragraph of subsection 2.1A(ii).

               (c)  Prepayments and Reductions Due to Issuance of Additional
          Subordinated Indebtedness.  On the date of receipt by Company of any
          proceeds of Additional Subordinated Indebtedness, if (x) the ratio of
          Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Broadcast Cash Flow then
          exceeds 4.50:1.00 and gross proceeds from such Additional Subordinated
          Indebtedness exceed $25,000,000, then (y) Company shall reduce the
          Commitments in an amount equal to the excess of the Net Debt Proceeds
          of such Additional Subordinated Indebtedness over the sum of (1) the
          purchase price of any Acquisition consummated substantially
          concurrently with the issuance of such Additional Subordinated
          Indebtedness, to the extent the proceeds of such Additional
          Subordinated Indebtedness were applied thereto and (2) the aggregate
          amount of such net proceeds applied to refinance or repurchase any
          other Subordinated Indebtedness pursuant to subsection 7.5(i) or to
          redeem or repurchase any Convertible Preferred Stock, Exchangeable
          Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock pursuant to subsection 7.5(iv)
          (such amount, the ``Permitted Repurchase Prepayment Amount'') and
          prepay the Loans to the extent required under subsection 2.4B(iii)(b)
          as a result of such reduction in the Commitments.  Concurrently with
          any prepayment of the Loans and/or reduction of the Commitments
          pursuant to this subsection 2.4B(iii)(c), Company shall deliver to
          Administrative Agent an Officers' Certificate demonstrating the
          derivation of the Net Debt Proceeds of the correlative issuance of
          Additional Subordinated Indebtedness from the gross sales price
          thereof and the calculation of the Subordinated Debt Repayment Amount.

               (d)  Prepayments and Reductions Due to Issuance of Equity
          Securities.   There shall be no mandatory prepayment or Commitment
          reduction required resulting solely from the receipt by Company of
          Equity Proceeds from the issuance by Company of equity securities.

          (iv) Application of Prepayments and Unscheduled Reductions of
               Revolving Loan Commitments and Additional Credit Commitments.

               (a)  Application of Voluntary Prepayments by Type of Loans and
          Order of Maturity.  Any voluntary prepayments pursuant to subsection
          2.4B(i) 


                                          52
<PAGE>



          shall be applied as specified by Company in the applicable notice of
          prepayment; provided that in the event Company fails to specify the
          Loans to which any such prepayment shall be applied, such prepayment
          shall be applied first to repay outstanding Revolving Loans and
          Additional Credit Loans on a pro rata basis to the full extent thereof
          and second to cash collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit.

               (b)  Application of Prepayments to Base Rate Loans and Eurodollar
          Rate Loans.  Considering Additional Credit Loans and Revolving Loans
          being prepaid separately, any prepayment thereof shall be applied
          first to Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof before application
          to Eurodollar Rate Loans, in each case in a manner which minimizes the
          amount of any payments required to be made by Company pursuant to
          subsection 2.6D.

               (c)  Application of Mandatory Prepayments by Type of Loans.  Any
          amount required to be applied as a mandatory prepayment of the Loans
          and/or a reduction of the Commitments pursuant to subsections
          2.4B(iii)(a)-(c) shall be applied first to permanently reduce the
          Additional Credit Commitments and Revolving Loan Commitments on a pro
          rata basis and then, to the extent that the Revolving Loan Commitments
          are less than the Letter of Credit Usage, cash collateralize Letters
          of Credit outstanding.

               (d)  Application of Unscheduled Reductions of Revolving Loan
          Commitments.  Any voluntary reduction of the Revolving Loan
          Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(ii) shall be applied to reduce
          on a pro rata basis the scheduled reductions of the Revolving Loan
          Commitments set forth in subsection 2.4A(i).  Any mandatory reduction
          of the Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii)
          shall be applied on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the
          respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to each scheduled
          reduction of the Revolving Loan Commitments set forth in subsection
          2.4A(i) that is remaining at the time of such mandatory reduction.

               (e)  Application of Unscheduled Reductions of Additional Credit
          Commitments.  Any voluntary reduction of the Additional Credit
          Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(ii) shall be applied on a pro
          rata basis to reduce the scheduled reductions of the Additional Credit
          Commitments set forth in subsection 2.4A(ii).  Any mandatory reduction
          of the Additional Credit Commitments pursuant to subsection 2.4B(iii)
          shall be applied on a pro rata basis (in accordance with the
          respective outstanding principal amounts thereof) to each scheduled
          reduction of the Additional Credit Commitments referred to in
          subsection 2.4A(ii) that is remaining at the time of such mandatory
          reduction.

     C.   General Provisions Regarding Payments.

           (i) Manner and Time of Payment.  All payments by Company of
     principal, interest, fees and other Obligations hereunder and under the
     Notes shall be made in same day funds and without defense, setoff or
     counterclaim, free of any restriction or condition, and delivered to
     Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 Noon (New York time) on the date
     due at its office located at One Bankers Trust Plaza, New York, New York,
     for the account of Lenders; funds received by Administrative Agent after
     that time on such due date shall be deemed to have been paid by Company on
     the next succeeding Business Day.  Company hereby authorizes Administrative
     Agent (upon concurrent notice to Company) to charge its accounts with
     Administrative Agent in order to cause timely payment to be made to
     Administrative Agent of all principal, interest, fees and expenses due
     hereunder (subject to sufficient funds being available in its accounts for
     that purpose); provided, however, that the failure by Administrative Agent
     to provide such concurrent notice as set forth above shall not limit or
     otherwise affect Administrative Agent's ability or authority to charge
     Company's account hereunder.

          (ii) Application of Payments to Principal and Interest.  All payments
     in respect of the principal amount of any Loan shall include payment of
     accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid or prepaid, and all
     such payments shall be applied to the payment of interest before
     application to principal.

         (iii) Apportionment of Payments.  Aggregate principal and interest
     payments shall be apportioned among all outstanding Loans to which such
     payments relate, in each case proportionately to Lenders' respective Pro
     Rata Shares.  Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each
     Lender, at its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate
     signature page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request,
     its Pro Rata Share of all such payments received by Administrative Agent
     and the commitment fees of such Lender when received by Administrative
     Agent pursuant to subsection 2.3.  Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions
     of this subsection 2.4C(iii), if, pursuant to the provisions of subsection
     2.6C, any Notice of Conversion/Continuation is withdrawn as to any Affected
     Lender or if any Affected Lender makes Base Rate Loans in lieu of its Pro
     Rata Share of any Eurodollar Rate Loans, Administrative Agent shall give
     effect thereto in apportioning payments received thereafter.

          (iv) Payments on Business Days.  Whenever any payment to be made
     hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day,
     such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such
     extension of time shall be included in the computation of the payment of
     interest hereunder or of the commitment fees hereunder, as the case may be.

           (v) Notation of Payment.  Each Lender agrees that before disposing of
     any Note held by it, or any part thereof (other than by granting
     participations therein), 


                                          54

<PAGE>


     that Lender will make a notation thereon of all Loans evidenced by that
     Note and all principal payments previously made thereon and of the date to
     which interest thereon has been paid; provided that the failure to make (or
     any error in the making of) a notation of any Loan made under such Note
     shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of Company hereunder or
     under such Note with respect to any Loan or any payments of principal or
     interest on such Note.

2.5  Use of Proceeds.

     A.   Additional Credit Loans and Revolving Loans.  The proceeds of the
Additional Credit Loans and Revolving Loans shall be applied by Company for
(i) working capital and other general corporate purposes, (ii) the repurchase or
purchase of Existing Subordinated Notes in accordance with the provisions of
subsection 7.5(i), (iii) the redemption or repurchase of Convertible Preferred
Stock, Exchangeable Preferred Stock and Company Common Stock in accordance with
the provisions of subsection 7.5(iv), (iv) the making of Investments in
accordance with subsection 7.3 hereof and (v) the making of Acquisitions in
accordance with the provisions of subsection 7.7(vi) hereof.

     B.   Margin Regulations.  No portion of the proceeds of any borrowing under
this Agreement shall be used by Company or any of its Subsidiaries in any manner
that might cause the borrowing or the application of such proceeds to violate
Regulation G, Regulation U, Regulation T or Regulation X of the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System or any other regulation of such Board or
to violate the Exchange Act, in each case as in effect on the date or dates of
such borrowing and such use of proceeds.

2.6  Special Provisions Governing Eurodollar Rate Loans.

     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the
following provisions shall govern with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans as to
the matters covered:

     A.   Determination of Applicable Interest Rate.  As soon as practicable
after 10:00 A.M. (New York time) on each Interest Rate Determination Date,
Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest
error, be final, conclusive and binding upon all parties) the interest rate that
shall apply to the Eurodollar Rate Loans for which an interest rate is then
being determined for the applicable Interest Period and shall promptly give
notice thereof (in writing or by telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and
each Lender.

     B.   Inability to Determine Applicable Interest Rate.  In the event that
Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be final
and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto), on any Interest Rate
Determination Date with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, that by reason of
circumstances affecting the interbank Eurodollar market, adequate and fair means
do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable to such Loans on the
basis provided for in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, Administrative
Agent shall on such date give notice (by telecopy or by 


                                          55

<PAGE>



telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and each Lender of such
determination, whereupon (i) no Loans may be made as, or converted to,
Eurodollar Rate Loans until such time as Administrative Agent notifies Company
and Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist
and (ii) any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by
Company with respect to the Loans in respect of which such determination was
made shall be deemed to be rescinded by Company.

     C.   Illegality or Impracticability of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  In the event
that on any date any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall be
final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but shall be made only
after consultation with Company and Administrative Agent) that the making,
maintaining or continuation of its Eurodollar Rate Loans (i) has become unlawful
as a result of compliance by such Lender in good faith with any law, treaty,
governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order (or would conflict with any
such treaty, governmental rule, regulation, guideline or order not having the
force of law even though the failure to comply therewith would not be unlawful)
or (ii) has become impracticable, or would cause such Lender material hardship,
as a result of contingencies occurring after the date of this Agreement which
materially and adversely affect the interbank Eurodollar market or the position
of such Lender in that market, then, and in any such event, such Lender shall be
an ``Affected Lender'' and it shall on that day give notice (by telecopy or by
telephone confirmed in writing) to Company and Administrative Agent of such
determination (which notice Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each
other Lender).  Thereafter (a) the obligation of the Affected Lender to make
Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be suspended until
such notice shall be withdrawn by the Affected Lender, (b) to the extent such
determination by the Affected Lender relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then
being requested by Company pursuant to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of
Conversion/Continuation, the Affected Lender shall make such Loan as (or convert
such Loan to, as the case may be) a Base Rate Loan, (c) the Affected Lender's
obligation to maintain its outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loans, as the case may be
(the ``Affected Loans''), shall be terminated at the earlier to occur of the
expiration of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the Affected
Loans or when required by law, and (d) the Affected Loans shall automatically
convert into Base Rate Loans on the date of such termination.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, to the extent a determination by an Affected Lender as described
above relates to a Eurodollar Rate Loan then being requested by Company pursuant
to a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, Company shall
have the option, subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, to rescind such
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation as to all Lenders by
giving notice (by telecopy or by telephone confirmed in writing) to
Administrative Agent of such rescission on the date on which the Affected Lender
gives notice of its determination as described above (which notice of rescission
Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each other Lender).  Except as
provided in the immediately preceding sentence, nothing in this subsection 2.6C
shall affect the obligation of any Lender other than an Affected Lender to make
or maintain Loans as, or to convert Loans to, Eurodollar Rate Loans in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

     D.   Compensation For Breakage or Non-Commencement of Interest Periods. 
Company shall compensate each Lender, upon written request by that Lender (which
request shall set forth the basis for requesting such amounts), for all
reasonable losses, expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any
interest paid by that Lender to lenders of funds borrowed by it to make or carry
its Eurodollar Rate Loans and any loss, expense or liability sustained by that
Lender in connection with the liquidation or re-employment of such funds) which
that Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by that
Lender) a borrowing of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does not occur on a date
specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a telephonic request for
borrowing, or a conversion to or continuation of any Eurodollar Rate Loan does
not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Conversion/Continuation or
a telephonic request for conversion or continuation, (ii) if any prepayment or
conversion of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans occurs on a date that is not the
last day of an Interest Period applicable to that Loan, (iii) if any prepayment
of any of its Eurodollar Rate Loans is not made on any date specified in a
notice of prepayment given by Company, or (iv) as a consequence of any other
default by Company in the repayment of its Eurodollar Rate Loans when required
by the terms of this Agreement.

     E.   Booking of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Any Lender may make, carry or
transfer Eurodollar Rate Loans at, to, or for the account of any of its branch
offices or the office of an Affiliate of that Lender.

     F.   Assumptions Concerning Funding of Eurodollar Rate Loans.  Calculation
of all amounts payable to a Lender under this subsection 2.6 and under
subsection 2.7A shall be made as though that Lender had actually funded each of
its relevant Eurodollar Rate Loans through the purchase of a Eurodollar deposit
bearing interest at the rate obtained pursuant to clause (i) of the definition
of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate in an amount equal to the amount of such Eurodollar
Rate Loan and having a maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and
through the transfer of such Eurodollar deposit from an offshore office of that
Lender to a domestic office of that Lender in the United States of America;
provided, however, that each Lender may fund each of its Eurodollar Rate Loans
in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumptions shall be utilized only
for the purposes of calculating amounts payable under this subsection 2.6 and
under subsection 2.7A.

     G.   Eurodollar Rate Loans After Default.  After the occurrence of and
during the continuation of a Potential Event of Default or an Event of Default,
(i) Company may not elect to have a Loan be made or maintained as, or converted
to, a Eurodollar Rate Loan after the expiration of any Interest Period then in
effect for that Loan and (ii) subject to the provisions of subsection 2.6D, any
Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by Company with
respect to a requested borrowing or conversion/continuation that has not yet
occurred shall be deemed to be rescinded by Company.

2.7  Increased Costs; Taxes; Capital Adequacy.

     A.   Compensation for Increased Costs and Taxes.  Subject to the provisions
of subsection 2.7B, in the event that any Lender shall determine (which
determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding
upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation
or order, or any change therein or in the interpretation, administration or
application thereof (including the introduction of any new law, treaty or
governmental rule, regulation or order), or any determination of a court or
governmental authority, in each case that becomes effective after the date
hereof, or compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive
issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other governmental
or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law):

            (i) subjects such Lender (or its applicable lending office) to any
     additional Tax (other than any Tax on the overall net income of such
     Lender) with respect to this Agreement or any of its obligations hereunder
     or any payments to such Lender (or its applicable lending office) of
     principal, interest, fees or any other amount payable hereunder;

           (ii) imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including
     without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other
     reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar
     requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or
     for the account of, or advances or loans by, or other credit extended by,
     or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender (other than
     any such reserve or other requirements with respect to Eurodollar Rate
     Loans that are reflected in the definition of Adjusted Eurodollar Rate, as
     the case may be); or

          (iii) imposes any other condition (other than with respect to a
     Tax matter) on or affecting such Lender (or its applicable lending office)
     or its obligations hereunder, the interbank Eurodollar market;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of
agreeing to make, making or maintaining Loans hereunder or to reduce any amount
received or receivable by such Lender (or its applicable lending office) with
respect thereto; then, in any such case, Company shall promptly pay to such
Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such
additional amount or amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a
different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its
sole discretion shall determine) as may be necessary to compensate such Lender
for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or receivable
hereunder.  Such Lender shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative
Agent) a written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for
calculating the additional amounts owed to such Lender under this subsection
2.7A, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto
absent manifest error.


                                          58

     B.   Withholding of Taxes.

          (i)  Payments to Be Free and Clear.  All sums payable by Company under
     this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be paid free and clear of
     and (except to the extent required by law) without any deduction or
     withholding on account of any Tax (other than a Tax on the overall net
     income of any Lender) imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by
     or within the United States of America or any political subdivision in or
     of the United States of America or any other jurisdiction from or to which
     a payment is made by or on behalf of Company or by any federation or
     organization of which the United States of America or any such jurisdiction
     is a member at the time of payment.

          (ii) Grossing-up of Payments.  If Company or any other Person is
     required by law to make any deduction or withholding on account of any such
     Tax from any sum paid or payable by Company to Administrative Agent or any
     Lender under any of the Loan Documents:

               (a)  Company shall notify Administrative Agent of any such
          requirement or any change in any such requirement as soon as Company
          becomes aware of it;

               (b)  Company shall pay any such Tax before the date on which
          penalties attach thereto, such payment to be made (if the liability to
          pay is imposed on Company) for its own account or (if that liability
          is imposed on Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be)
          on behalf of and in the name of Administrative Agent or such Lender;

               (c)  the sum payable by Company in respect of which the relevant
          deduction, withholding or payment is required shall be increased to
          the extent necessary to ensure that, after the making of that
          deduction, withholding or payment, Administrative Agent or such
          Lender, as the case may be, receives on the due date a net sum equal
          to what it would have received had no such deduction, withholding or
          payment been required or made; and

               (d)  within 30 days after paying any sum from which it is
          required by law to make any deduction or withholding, and within 30
          days after the due date of payment of any Tax which it is required by
          clause (b) above to pay, Company shall deliver to Administrative Agent
          evidence satisfactory to the other affected parties of such deduction,
          withholding or payment and of the remittance thereof to the relevant
          taxing or other authority.

          (iii)     U.S. Tax Certificates.  Each Lender that is organized under
     the laws of any jurisdiction other than the United States or any state or
     other political subdivision thereof shall deliver to Administrative Agent
     for transmission to Company, on or prior to the Closing Date (in the case
     of each Lender listed on the 


                                          59

<PAGE>


     signature pages hereof) or on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance
     pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender),
     and at such other times as may be necessary in the determination of Company
     or Administrative Agent (each in the reasonable exercise of its
     discretion), such certificates, documents or other evidence, properly
     completed and duly executed by such Lender (including, without limitation,
     Internal Revenue Service Form 1001 or Form 4224 or any other certificate or
     statement of exemption required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-4(a)
     or Section 1.1441-6(c) or any successor thereto) to establish that such
     Lender is not subject to deduction or withholding of United States federal
     income tax under Section 1441 or 1442 of the Internal Revenue Code or
     otherwise (or under any comparable provisions of any successor statute)
     with respect to any payments to such Lender of principal, interest, fees or
     other amounts payable under any of the Loan Documents.  Company shall not
     be required to pay any additional amount to any such Lender under clause
     (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) if such Lender shall have failed to satisfy the
     requirements of the immediately preceding sentence; provided that if such
     Lender shall have satisfied such requirements on the Closing Date (in the
     case of each Lender listed on the signature pages hereof) or on the date of
     the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it became a Lender (in the
     case of each other Lender), nothing in this subsection 2.7B(iii) shall
     relieve Company of its obligation to pay any additional amounts pursuant to
     clause (c) of subsection 2.7B(ii) in the event that, as a result of any
     change in applicable law, such Lender is no longer properly entitled to
     deliver certificates, documents or other evidence at a subsequent date
     establishing the fact that such Lender is not subject to withholding as
     described in the immediately preceding sentence.

          (iv) Replacement of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances.  Each Lender
     hereby severally agrees that, if no Event of Default or Potential Event of
     Default then exists, Company shall have the right to replace any Lender
     with a successor Lender hereunder (each such successor Lender, a
     ``Successor Lender'') if, as a result of the application of the provisions
     of subsection 2.7B (including the proviso to subsection 2.7B(iii)), Company
     is required to pay additional amounts to such Lender pursuant to
     subsection 2.7B(ii) while not required to pay such additional amounts
     generally with respect to all Lenders; provided that each Successor Lender
     (i) must be acceptable to Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, (ii)
     must become a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 10.1 hereof and (iii)
     must purchase for cash without recourse the respective replaced Lender's
     interest in the obligations of Company to such Lender in the aggregate
     unpaid principal amount of, and accrued interest on, such Lender's Loans
     and fees and any other amount owing hereunder.  Notwithstanding the
     foregoing, Company shall not have any right to replace Bankers as a Lender
     pursuant to this clause (iv).

     C.   Capital Adequacy Adjustment.  If any Lender shall have determined that
the adoption, effectiveness, phase-in or applicability of any law, rule or
regulation (or any provision thereof) regarding capital adequacy, or any change
therein or in the interpretation or administration thereof by any governmental
authority, central bank or comparable agency 


                                          60

<PAGE>


charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any
Lender (or its applicable lending office) with any guideline, request or
directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of
any such governmental authority, central bank or comparable agency, has or would
have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the capital of such Lender or
any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of, or with reference
to, such Lender's Loans or Commitments or Letters of Credit or participations
therein or other obligations hereunder with respect to the Loans or the Letters
of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling
corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, phase-in,
applicability, change or compliance (taking into consideration the policies of
such Lender or such controlling corporation with regard to capital adequacy),
then from time to time, within five Business Days after receipt by Company from
such Lender of the statement referred to in the next sentence, Company shall pay
to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender
or such controlling corporation on an after-tax basis for such reduction. Such
Lender shall deliver to Company (with a copy to Administrative Agent) a written
statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of
such additional amounts, which statement shall be conclusive and binding upon
all parties hereto absent manifest error.

2.8  Obligation of Lenders and Issuing Lenders to Mitigate.

     Each Lender and Issuing Lender agrees that, as promptly as practicable
after the officer of such Lender or Issuing Lender responsible for administering
the Loans or Letters of Credit of such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may
be, becomes aware of the occurrence of an event or the existence of a condition
that would cause such Lender to become an Affected Lender or that would entitle
such Lender or Issuing Lender to receive payments under subsection 2.7 or
subsection 3.6, it will, to the extent not inconsistent with the internal
policies of such Lender or Issuing Lender and any applicable legal or regulatory
restrictions, use reasonable efforts (i) to make, issue, fund or maintain the
Commitments of such Lender or the affected Loans or Letters of Credit of such
Lender or Issuing Lender through another lending or letter of credit office of
such Lender or Issuing Lender, or (ii) take such other measures as such Lender
or Issuing Lender may deem reasonable, if as a result thereof the circumstances
which would cause such Lender to be an Affected Lender would cease to exist or
the additional amounts which would otherwise be required to be paid to such
Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to subsection 2.7 or subsection 3.6 would be
materially reduced and if, as determined by such Lender or Issuing Lender in its
sole discretion, the making, issuing, funding or maintaining of such Commitments
or Loans or Letters of Credit through such other lending or letter of credit
office or in accordance with such other measures, as the case may be, would not
otherwise materially adversely affect such Commitments or Loans or Letters of
Credit or the interests of such Lender or Issuing Lender; provided that such
Lender or Issuing Lender will not be obligated to utilize such other lending or
letter of credit office pursuant to this subsection 2.8 unless Company agrees to
pay all incremental expenses incurred by such Lender or Issuing Lender as a
result of utilizing such other lending or letter of credit office as described
in clause (i) above.  A certificate as to the amount of any such expenses
payable by Company pursuant to this 


                                          61

<PAGE>


subsection 2.8 (setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such
amount) submitted by such Lender or Issuing Lender to Company (with a copy to
Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

2.9  Guaranties of and Security for the Obligations; Acknowledgment and Consent.

     A.   Company Security.  To secure the full performance of the Obligations,
pursuant to the Borrower Pledge and Security Agreement, Company has granted and,
by the execution, acknowledgement, delivery and recordation of the Borrower
Mortgage, shall grant to Collateral Agent on behalf of Lenders, a duly perfected
first priority Lien (subject to Liens permitted hereby) on all real, personal
and mixed property of Company now owned or (except in the case of real property)
hereafter acquired by Company (except to the extent prohibited by the FCC or the
Communications Act), including, without limitation, the Leases, which
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Requisite Lenders has heretofore
requested or may request.  Company shall execute and deliver any and all
additional Collateral Documents including, without limitation, financing
statements, termination statements, collateral search reports, title reports,
title insurance and landlord waivers and consents, trademark documentation,
opinions of counsel and such other perfection documents, instruments,
information and materials with respect to the property of Company as

foregoing shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Collateral
Agent.

     B.   Subsidiary Guaranty.  As further security for the full performance of
the Obligations, each Credit Party (other than Company and the Acquisition
Subsidiaries) has executed and delivered to Collateral Agent on behalf of
Lenders, the Subsidiary Guaranty and, in the case of each Acquisition
Subsidiary, shall execute and deliver a counterpart thereto on the applicable
Acquisition Closing Date.

     C.   Security for Guaranty.  To secure the full performance of its
obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty, each Credit Party has granted,
pursuant to the Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement and (except in the case
of the License Cos., WKBW-TV, Inc., QC III, Queen City and Granite Response
Television, Inc.) shall grant, by the execution, acknowledgement, delivery and
recordation of a Subsidiary Mortgage, and each Acquisition Subsidiary shall
grant, by the execution and delivery on the applicable Acquisition Closing Date
of a counterpart to the Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement, to Collateral
Agent on behalf of Lenders, a perfected, first priority Lien (subject to Liens
permitted hereby) on all real, personal and mixed property of such Credit Party
now owned or (except in the case of real property) hereafter acquired thereby
(except to the extent prohibited by the FCC or the Communications Act), and
which Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Requisite Lenders have
heretofore requested or may request.  Each Credit Party (other than Company)
shall execute and deliver any and all Collateral Documents, including, without
limitation, the financing statements, termination statements, collateral search
reports and such other perfection documents, instruments, information and
material with respect to the property of such Credit Party as Collateral Agent
or Administrative Agent may reasonably 


                                          62

<PAGE>


request.  All of the foregoing shall be in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to Collateral Agent.

     D.   Further Assurances Regarding Security; Additional Security.  Company
shall and shall cause each of the other Credit Parties to, from time to time,
execute and deliver to Collateral Agent on behalf of Lenders, such additional
Collateral Documents, statements, documents, agreements, consents and reports as
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or Requisite Lenders may from time to
time reasonably request to evidence, perfect or otherwise implement or assure
the security for repayment of the Obligations and the full performance of the
obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty.  With respect to the Lenders'
Policies, upon Administrative Agent's request, Company shall arrange for
co-insurance and/or reinsurance, with companies and in amounts satisfactory to
Administrative Agent.  All reinsurance policies shall include direct access
agreements acceptable to Administrative Agent.  Any further advances made by
Lenders hereunder shall be conditioned upon Administrative Agent obtaining such
additional endorsements to the Lenders' Policies insuring the additional amount
of the Loan and the validity and priority of such advances as Administrative
Agent deems necessary or advisable.

     E.   Acknowledgment and Consent to Amendment and Restatement of Existing
Agreement.  Each Credit Party hereby acknowledges that it has reviewed the terms
and provisions of this Agreement and consents to the amendment of the Existing
Agreement effected pursuant hereto.  Company hereby confirms that the Borrower
Pledge and Security Agreement and each Subsidiary hereby confirms that the
Subsidiary Guaranty and the Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement and all
Collateral encumbered thereby will continue to guaranty or secure, as the case
may be, to the fullest extent possible, the payment and performance of all
``Guarantied Obligations'' or ``Secured Obligations'', as the case may be (in
each case as such terms are defined in the applicable Loan Document), including
without limitation the payment and performance of all such ``Guarantied
Obligations'' or ``Secured Obligations'', as the case may, in respect of the
Obligations of Company now or hereafter existing under or in respect of the
Existing Agreement (as amended hereby) and the Notes.  For purposes of each of
the Collateral Documents the term ``Credit Agreement'' means this Agreement.

     Company hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower Pledge and
Security Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and that all of its
obligations thereunder shall be valid and enforceable and shall not be impaired
or limited by the execution or effectiveness hereof.  Each Credit Party (other
than Company) hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Subsidiary Guaranty and
the Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement shall continue in full force and
effect and that all of its obligations thereunder shall be valid and enforceable
and shall not be impaired or limited by the execution or effectiveness hereof.

     Each Subsidiary acknowledges and agrees that (i) notwithstanding the
conditions to effectiveness set forth in this Agreement, such Subsidiary is not
required by the terms of the Existing Agreement or any other Loan Document to
consent to the amendments to the Existing Agreement effected pursuant hereto and
(ii) nothing in the Existing Agreement, this 

                                          63

<PAGE>


Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed to require the consent of
such Subsidiary to any future amendments to the Existing Agreement or this
Agreement.

2.10 Replacement of a Lender

     In the event of a refusal by a Lender to consent to a proposed change,
waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement which has been
approved by the Requisite Lenders, Company shall have the right for a 60 day
period following such refusal, to replace such Lender (a ``Replaced Lender'')
with one or more Eligible Assignees (collectively, the ``Replacement Lender'')
acceptable to Administrative Agent, provided that (i) at the time of any
replacement pursuant to this subsection 2.10 the Replacement Lender and Replaced
Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment Agreements pursuant to subsection
10.1B (and with all fees payable pursuant to such subsection 10.1B to be paid by
the Replacement Lender) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire
all of the outstanding Loans and Commitments of, and in each case participations
in Letters of Credit by, the Replaced Lender and, in connection therewith, shall
pay to (x) the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to the sum of
(A) an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all
outstanding Loans of the Replaced Lender, (B) an amount equal to all unpaid
drawings with respect to Letters of Credit that have been funded by (and not
reimbursed to) such Replaced Lender, together with all then unpaid interest with
respect thereto at such time and (C) an amount equal to all accrued, but
theretofore unpaid, fees owing to the Replaced Lender with respect thereto, and
(y) the appropriate Issuing Lender an amount equal to such Replaced Lender's Pro
Rata Share of any unpaid drawings with respect to Letters of Credit (which at
such time remains an unpaid drawing) issued by it to the extent such amount was
not theretofore funded by such Replaced Lender, and (ii) all obligations
(including without limitation all such amounts, if any, owing under subsection
2.6D) of Company owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those specifically
described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price
has been, or is concurrently being, paid), shall be paid in full to such
Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement.  Upon the execution of the
respective Assignment Agreements, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses
(i) and (ii) above and delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate
Note or Notes executed by Company, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender
hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder
except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement which by
the terms of this Agreement survive the termination of this Agreement, which
indemnification provisions shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. 
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, no Issuing Lender may
be replaced hereunder at any time while it has Letters of Credit outstanding
hereunder unless arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Lender (including the
furnishing of a Standby Letter of Credit in form and substance, and issued by an
issuer satisfactory to such Issuing Lender or the furnishing of cash collateral
in amounts and pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to such Issuing Lender)
have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit.

                                      SECTION 3.
                                  LETTERS OF CREDIT

3.1  Issuance of Letters of Credit and Lenders' Purchase of Participations
     Therein.

     A.   Letters of Credit.  In addition to Company requesting that Lenders
having a Revolving Loan Commitment make Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection
2.1A(ii), Company may request, in accordance with the provisions of this
subsection 3.1, from time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the
date which is 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment Termination Date,
that one or more Lenders issue Letters of Credit for the account of Company for
the purposes specified in the definitions of Commercial Letters of Credit and
Standby Letters of Credit.  Letters of Credit can be issued on a sight basis
only.  Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in reliance
upon the representations and warranties of Company herein set forth, any one or
more Lenders having a Revolving Loan Commitment may, but (except as provided in
subsection 3.1B(ii)) shall not be obligated to, issue such Letters of Credit in
accordance with the provisions of this subsection 3.1; provided that Company
shall not request that any Lender issue (and no Lender shall issue):

           (i) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance,
     the Total Utilization of Revolving Loan Commitments would exceed the
     Revolving Loan Commitments then in effect;

          (ii) any Standby Letter of Credit having an expiration date later than
     the earlier of (a) ten Business Days prior to the Revolving Loan Commitment
     Termination Date and (b) the date which is one year from the date of
     issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit; provided that the immediately
     preceding clause (b) shall not prevent any Issuing Lender from agreeing
     that a Standby Letter of Credit will automatically be extended for one or
     more successive periods not to exceed one year each unless such Issuing
     Lender elects not to extend for any such additional period; and provided,
     further that, unless Requisite Lenders otherwise consent, such Issuing
     Lender shall give notice that it will not extend such Standby Letter of
     Credit if it has knowledge that an Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing; 

         (iii) any Commercial Letter of Credit having an expiration date
     (a) later than the earlier of (X) 30 days prior to the Revolving Loan
     Commitment Termination Date and (Y) the date which is 180 days from the
     date of issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit or (b) that is
     otherwise unacceptable to the applicable Issuing Lender in its reasonable
     discretion;

          (iv) any Letter of Credit denominated in a currency other than
     Dollars; or

           (v) any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance,
     the Letter of Credit Usage would exceed $10,000,000.

     B.   Mechanics of Issuance.

          (i)  Notice of Issuance.  Whenever Company desires the issuance of a
     Letter of Credit, it shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Notice of
     Request to Issue a Letter of Credit no later than 11:00 A.M. (New York
     time) at least ten Business Days (in the case of Standby Letters of
     Credit), or five Business Days (in the case of Commercial Letters of
     Credit), or in each case such shorter period as may be agreed to by the
     Issuing Lender in any particular instance, in advance of the proposed date
     of issuance.  The Notice of Request to Issue a Letter of Credit shall
     specify (a) the proposed date of issuance (which shall be a Business Day),
     (b) the face amount of the Letter of Credit, (c) the expiration date of the
     Letter of Credit, (d) the name and address of the beneficiary, and (e) the
     verbatim text of the proposed Letter of Credit or the proposed terms and
     conditions thereof, including a precise description of any documents and
     the verbatim text of any certificates to be presented by the beneficiary
     which, if presented by the beneficiary prior to the expiration date of the
     Letter of Credit, would require the Issuing Lender to make payment under
     the Letter of Credit; provided that the Issuing Lender, in its reasonable
     discretion, may require changes in the text of the proposed Letter of
     Credit or any such documents or certificates.

          Company shall notify the applicable Issuing Lender (and Administrative
     Agent, if Administrative Agent is not such Issuing Lender) prior to the
     issuance of any Letter of Credit in the event that any of the matters to
     which Company is required to certify in the applicable Notice of Request to
     Issue a Letter of Credit is no longer true and correct as of the proposed
     date of issuance of such Letter of Credit, and upon the issuance of any
     Letter of Credit Company shall be deemed to have re-certified, as of the
     date of such issuance, as to the matters to which Company is required to
     certify in the applicable Notice of Request to Issue a Letter of Credit.

          (ii) Determination of Issuing Lender.  Upon receipt by Administrative
     Agent of a Notice of Request to Issue a Letter of Credit pursuant to
     subsection 3.1B(i) requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, in the
     event Administrative Agent elects to issue such Letter of Credit,
     Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Company, and Administrative
     Agent shall be the Issuing Lender with respect thereto.  In the event that
     Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, elects not to issue such
     Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify Company,
     whereupon Company may request any other Lender having a Revolving Loan
     Commitment to issue such Letter of Credit by delivering to such Lender a
     copy of the applicable Notice of Request to Issue a Letter of Credit.  Any
     Lender so requested to issue such Letter of Credit shall promptly notify
     Company and Administrative Agent whether or not, in its sole discretion, it
     has elected to issue such Letter of Credit, and any such Lender which so
     elects to issue such Letter of Credit shall be the Issuing Lender with
     respect thereto.  In the event that all other Lenders having a Revolving
     Loan Commitment shall have declined to issue such Letter of Credit,
     notwithstanding the prior election of Administrative Agent not to 



                                          66

<PAGE>



     issue such Letter of Credit, Administrative Agent shall be obligated to
     issue such Letter of Credit and shall be the Issuing Lender with respect
     thereto, notwithstanding the fact that the Letter of Credit Usage with
     respect to such Letter of Credit and with respect to all other Letters of
     Credit issued by Administrative Agent, when aggregated with Administrative
     Agent's outstanding Revolving Loans, may exceed Administrative Agent's
     Revolving Loan Commitment then in effect.

          (iii)    Issuance of Letter of Credit.  Upon satisfaction or waiver
     (in accordance with subsection 10.6) of the conditions set forth in
     subsection 4.3, the Issuing Lender shall issue the requested Letter of
     Credit in accordance with the Issuing Lender's standard operating
     procedures, and upon its issuance of such Letter of Credit the Issuing
     Lender shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and each Lender having a
     Revolving Loan Commitment of such issuance, which notice shall be
     accompanied by a copy of such Letter of Credit.

           (iv)    Reports to Lenders.  Within 15 days after the end of each
     calendar quarter ending after the Closing Date, so long as any Letter of
     Credit shall have been outstanding during such calendar quarter, each
     Issuing Lender shall deliver to each other Lender having a Revolving Loan
     Commitment a report setting forth for such calendar quarter the daily
     maximum amount available to be drawn under the Letters of Credit issued by
     such Issuing Lender that were outstanding during such calendar quarter.

     C.   Lenders' Purchase of Participations in Letters of Credit.  Immediately
upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender having a Revolving Loan
Commitment shall be deemed to, and hereby agrees to, have irrevocably purchased
from the Issuing Lender a participation in such Letter of Credit and drawings
thereunder in an amount equal to such Lender's Pro Rata Share of the maximum
amount which is or at any time may become available to be drawn thereunder.

3.2  Letter of Credit Fees.

     Company agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of
Credit issued hereunder:

            (i)    with respect to each Standby Letter of Credit, (a) Company 
     shall pay to the Issuing Lender a fronting fee equal to the greater of 
     (X) 0.25% per annum of the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under
     such Standby Letter of Credit and (Y) $500 and (b) Company shall pay to
     Administrative Agent a letter of credit fee equal to the Applicable Margin
     in effect from time to time with respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans during
     the period such Letter of Credit is outstanding, in each case payable in
     arrears on each January 31, April 30, July 31 and October 31 of each year
     and computed on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual number of days
     elapsed;


                                          67

<PAGE>


          (ii)     with respect to each Commercial Letter of Credit, (a) Company
     shall pay to the Issuing Lender a fronting fee equal to 0.25% per annum of
     the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Commercial Letter
     of Credit and (b) Company shall pay to Administrative Agent a letter of
     credit fee equal to the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time with
     respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans during the period such Letter of Credit is
     outstanding, in each case payable in arrears on each January 31, April 30,
     July 31 and October 31 of each year and computed on the basis of a 360-day
     year for the actual number of days elapsed; and

          (iii)    with respect to the issuance, amendment or transfer of each
     Letter of Credit and each payment made thereunder (without duplication of
     the fees payable under clauses (i) and (ii) above), Company shall pay to
     the applicable Issuing Lender documentary and processing charges in
     accordance with such Issuing Lender's standard schedule for such charges in
     effect at the time of such issuance, amendment, transfer or payment, as the
     case may be.

Promptly upon receipt by Administrative Agent of any amount described in clause
(i)(b) or (ii)(b) of this subsection 3.2, Administrative Agent shall distribute
to each other Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment its Pro Rata Share of
such amount.

3.3  Drawings and Reimbursement of Amounts Drawn Under Letters of Credit.

     A.   Responsibility of Issuing Lender With Respect to Requests For
Drawings.  In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any
Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the Issuing Lender shall be
responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be
delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply
on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

     B.   Reimbursement by Company of Amounts Drawn Under Letters of Credit.  In
the event an Issuing Lender has determined to honor a request for drawing under
a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall immediately notify
Company and Administrative Agent, and Company shall reimburse such Issuing
Lender on or before the Business Day immediately following the date on which
such drawing is honored (the ``Reimbursement Date'') in an amount in same day
funds equal to the amount of such drawing; provided that, anything contained in
this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, (i) unless Company shall have
notified Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender prior to 11:00 A.M. (New
York time) on the date of such drawing that Company intends to reimburse such
Issuing Lender for the amount of such drawing with funds other than the proceeds
of Revolving Loans, Company shall be deemed to have given a timely Notice of
Borrowing to Administrative Agent requesting Lenders to make Revolving Loans
that are Base Rate Loans on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to the
amount of such drawing and (ii) subject to satisfaction or waiver of the
conditions specified in subsection 4.2C, Lenders shall, on the Reimbursement
Date, make Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans in the amount of such
drawing, the proceeds of which shall be applied directly by Administrative Agent
to reimburse such Issuing Lender for the amount of such drawing; and 


                                          68

<PAGE>


provided, further that if for any reason proceeds of Revolving Loans are not
received by such Issuing Lender on the Reimbursement Date in an amount equal to
the amount of such drawing, Company shall reimburse such Issuing Lender, on
demand, in an amount in same day funds equal to the excess of the amount of such
drawing over the aggregate amount of such Revolving Loans, if any, which are so
received.  Nothing in this subsection 3.3B shall be deemed to relieve any Lender
from its obligation to make Revolving Loans on the terms and conditions set
forth in this Agreement, and Company shall retain any and all rights it may have
against any Lender resulting from the failure of such Lender to make such
Revolving Loans under this subsection 3.3B.

     C.   Payment by Lenders of Unreimbursed Drawings Under Letters of Credit.

          (i)  Payment by Lenders.  In the event that Company shall fail for any
     reason to reimburse any Issuing Lender as provided in subsection 3.3B in an
     amount equal to the amount of any drawing honored by such Issuing Lender
     under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such Issuing Lender shall promptly
     notify each other Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such drawing and of
     such other Lender's respective participation therein based on such Lender's
     Pro Rata Share.  Each Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment shall make
     available to such Issuing Lender an amount equal to its respective
     participation, in same day funds, at the office of such Issuing Lender
     specified in such notice, not later than 11:30 A.M. (New York time) on the
     first business day (under the laws of the jurisdiction in which such office
     of such Issuing Lender is located) after the date notified by such Issuing
     Lender.  In the event that any Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment
     fails to make available to such Issuing Lender on such business day the
     amount of such Lender's participation in such Letter of Credit as provided
     in this subsection 3.3C, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover
     such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at
     the rate customarily used by such Issuing Lender for the correction of
     errors among banks for three Business Days and thereafter at the Base Rate.
     Nothing in this subsection 3.3C shall be deemed to prejudice the right of
     any Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment to recover from any Issuing
     Lender any amounts made available by such Lender to such Issuing Lender
     pursuant to this subsection 3.3C in the event that it is determined by the
     final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction that the payment with
     respect to a Letter of Credit by such Issuing Lender in respect of which
     payment was made by such Lender constituted gross negligence or willful
     misconduct on the part of such Issuing Lender.

          (ii) Distribution to Lenders of Reimbursements Received From Company. 
     In the event any Issuing Lender shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders
     pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i) for all or any portion of any drawing
     honored by such Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit issued by it, such
     Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other Lender having a Revolving
     Loan Commitment which has paid all amounts payable by it under subsection
     3.3C(i) with respect to such drawing such other Lender's Pro Rata Share of
     all payments subsequently received by such Issuing Lender from Company in
     reimbursement of such drawing when such 


                                          69

<PAGE>


     payments are received.  Any such distribution shall be made to a Lender at
     its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate signature
     page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request.

     D.   Interest on Amounts Drawn Under Letters of Credit.

          (i)  Payment of Interest by Company.  Company agrees to pay to each
     Issuing Lender, with respect to any drawings made under any Letters of
     Credit issued by it, interest on the amount paid by such Issuing Lender in
     respect of each such drawing from the date of such payment to but excluding
     the date such amount is reimbursed by Company (including any such
     reimbursement out of the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection
     3.3B) at a rate equal to (a) for the period from the date such drawing is
     honored to but excluding the Reimbursement Date, the rate then in effect
     under this Agreement with respect to Revolving Loans that are Base Rate
     Loans and (b) thereafter, a rate which is 2% per annum in excess of the
     rate of interest otherwise payable under this Agreement with respect to
     Revolving Loans that are Base Rate Loans.  Interest payable pursuant to
     this subsection 3.3D(i) shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day or
     366-day year, as the case may be, for the actual number of days elapsed in
     the period during which it accrues and shall be payable on demand or, if no
     demand is made, on the date on which the related drawing under a Letter of
     Credit is reimbursed in full.

          (ii) Distribution of Interest Payments by Issuing Lender.  Promptly
     upon receipt by any Issuing Lender of any payment of interest pursuant to
     subsection 3.3D(i), (a) such Issuing Lender shall distribute to each other
     Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment, out of the interest received by
     such Issuing Lender in respect of the period from the date of payment of
     the applicable drawing under a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing
     Lender to but excluding the date on which such Issuing Lender is reimbursed
     for the amount of such drawing (including any such reimbursement out of the
     proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to subsection 3.3B), the amount that
     such other Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the
     letter of credit fee that would have been payable in respect of such Letter
     of Credit for such period pursuant to subsection 3.2 if no drawing had been
     made under such Letter of Credit, and (b) in the event such Issuing Lender
     shall have been reimbursed by other Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3C(i)
     for all or any portion of such drawing, such Issuing Lender shall
     distribute to each other Lender which has paid all amounts payable by it
     under subsection 3.3C(i) with respect to such drawing such other Lender's
     Pro Rata Share of any interest received by such Issuing Lender in respect
     of that portion of such drawing so reimbursed by other Lenders for the
     period from the date on which such Issuing Lender was so reimbursed by
     other Lenders to and including the date on which such portion of such
     drawing is reimbursed by Company.  Any such distribution shall be made to a
     Lender at its primary address set forth below its name on the appropriate
     signature page hereof or at such other address as such Lender may request.


                                          70

3.4  Obligations Absolute.

     The obligation of Company to reimburse each Issuing Lender for drawings
made under the Letters of Credit issued by it and to repay any Revolving Loans
made by Lenders pursuant to subsection 3.3B and the obligations of Lenders under
subsection 3.3C(i) shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid
strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances
including, without limitation, the following circumstances:

          (i)    any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit;

          (ii)   the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right 
     which Company or any Lender may have at any time against a beneficiary or 
     any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such
     transferee may be acting), any Issuing Lender or other Lender or any other
     Person or, in the case of a Lender, against Company, whether in connection
     with this Agreement, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated
     transaction (including any underlying transaction between Company or one of
     its Subsidiaries and the beneficiary for which any Letter of Credit was
     procured);

          (iii)  any draft, demand, certificate or other document presented
     under any Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
     insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or
     inaccurate in any respect;

          (iv)   payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under any Letter of
     Credit against presentation of a demand, draft or certificate or other
     document which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit;

          (v)    any adverse change in the business, operations, properties,
     assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Company or any
     of its Subsidiaries;

          (vi)   any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any
     party thereto;

          (vii)  any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or
     not similar to any of the foregoing; or

          (viii) the fact that an Event of Default or a Potential Event of
     Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, in each case, that payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under the
applicable Letter of Credit shall not have constituted gross negligence or
willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender under the circumstances in question
(as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction).

                                           
                                          71

3.5  Indemnification; Nature of Issuing Lenders' Duties.

     A.   Indemnification.  In addition to amounts payable as provided in
subsection 3.6, Company hereby agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save
harmless each Issuing Lender from and against any and all claims, demands,
liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and expenses (including reasonable
fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel and allocated costs of internal
counsel) which such Issuing Lender may incur or be subject to as a consequence,
direct or indirect, of (i) the issuance of any Letter of Credit by such Issuing
Lender, other than as a result of (a) the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Issuing Lender as determined by a final judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction or (b) subject to the following clause (ii), the wrongful dishonor
by such Issuing Lender of a proper demand for payment made under any Letter of
Credit issued by it or (ii) the failure of such Issuing Lender to honor a
drawing under any such Letter of Credit as a result of any act or omission,
whether rightful or wrongful, of any present or future de jure or de facto
government or governmental authority (all such acts or omissions herein called
``Governmental Acts'').

     B.   Nature of Issuing Lenders' Duties.  As between Company and any Issuing
Lender, Company assumes all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the
Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender by, the respective beneficiaries
of such Letters of Credit.  In furtherance and not in limitation of the
foregoing, such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for:  (i) the form,
validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document
submitted by any party in connection with the application for and issuance of
any such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all
respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged; (ii) the
validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or
purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or
benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to
be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (iii) failure of the beneficiary of
any such Letter of Credit to comply fully with any conditions required in order
to draw upon such Letter of Credit; (iv) errors, omissions, interruptions or
delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph,
telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (v) errors in
interpretation of technical terms; (vi) any loss or delay in the transmission or
otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such
Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (vii) the misapplication by the
beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit of the proceeds of any drawing under
such Letter of Credit; or (viii) any consequences arising from causes beyond the
control of such Issuing Lender, including without limitation any Governmental
Acts, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of,
any of such Issuing Lender's rights or powers hereunder.

     In furtherance and extension and not in limitation of the specific
provisions set forth in the first paragraph of this subsection 3.5B, any action
taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with the Letters
of Credit issued by it or any documents and certificates delivered thereunder,
if taken or omitted in good faith, shall not put such Issuing Lender under any
resulting liability to Company.


                                          72

<PAGE>

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this subsection 3.5,
Company shall retain any and all rights it may have against any Issuing Lender
for any liability arising solely out of the gross negligence or willful
misconduct of such Issuing Lender, as determined by a final judgment of a court
of competent jurisdiction.

11.6 Increased Costs and Taxes Relating to Letters of Credit.

     In the event that any Issuing Lender or Lender having a Revolving Loan
Commitment shall determine (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be
final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) that any law, treaty
or governmental rule, regulation or order, or any change therein or in the
interpretation, administration or application thereof (including the
introduction of any new law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order),
or any determination of a court or governmental authority, in each case that
becomes effective after the date hereof, or compliance by any Issuing Lender or
Lender having a Revolving Loan Commitment with any guideline, request or
directive issued or made after the date hereof by any central bank or other
governmental or quasi-governmental authority (whether or not having the force of
law):

          (i)    subjects such Issuing Lender or Lender (or its applicable 
     lending or letter of credit office) to any additional Tax (other than any 
     Tax on the overall net income of such Issuing Lender or Lender) with 
     respect to the issuing or maintaining of any Letters of Credit or the 
     purchasing or maintaining of any participations therein or any other 
     obligations under this Section 3, whether directly or by such being imposed
     on or suffered by any particular Issuing Lender;

          (ii)   imposes, modifies or holds applicable any reserve (including
     without limitation any marginal, emergency, supplemental, special or other
     reserve), special deposit, compulsory loan, FDIC insurance or similar
     requirement in respect of any Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing
     Lender or participations therein purchased by any Lender; or

          (iii)  imposes any other condition on or affecting such Issuing
     Lender or Lender (or its applicable lending or letter of credit office)
     regarding this Section 3 or any Letter of Credit or any participation
     therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Issuing
Lender or Lender of agreeing to issue, issuing or maintaining any Letter of
Credit or agreeing to purchase, purchasing or maintaining any participation
therein or to reduce any amount received or receivable by such Issuing Lender or
Lender (or its applicable lending or letter of credit office) with respect
thereto; then, in any case, Company shall promptly pay to such Issuing Lender or
Lender, upon receipt of the statement referred to in the next sentence, such
additional amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate such Issuing
Lender or Lender for any such increased cost or reduction in amounts received or
receivable hereunder.  Such Issuing Lender or Lender shall deliver to Company a
written statement, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for calculating
the additional amounts owed to 


                                          73

<PAGE>


such Issuing Lender or Lender under this subsection 3.6, which statement shall
be conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto absent manifest error.


                                      SECTION 4.
                      CONDITIONS TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT

     The obligations of Lenders to make Loans and the issuance of Letters of

4.1  Conditions to Revolving Loans Made on the Closing Date.

     The effectiveness of this Agreement is subject to prior or concurrent
satisfaction of the following conditions:

     A.   Credit Party Documents.  On or before the Closing Date, Company shall

Lender and its counsel) the following, each, unless otherwise noted, dated the
Closing Date:

          (i)    Certified copies of each Credit Party's Certificate of

     together with a good standing certificate from the Secretary of State of
     the state of its incorporation and each other state in which it is

                       COMPANY'S REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

     In order to induce Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the
Loans, to induce Issuing Lenders to issue Letters of Credit and to induce other
Lenders to purchase participations therein, Company represents and warrants to
each Lender, on the date of this Agreement, on each Funding Date and on the date
of issuance of each Letter of Credit, that the following statements are true,
correct and complete:

5.1  Organization, Powers, Qualification, Good Standing, Business and
     Subsidiaries.

     A.   Organization and Powers.  Each Credit Party (other than QC III) is a
corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of its state 

                                          86

<PAGE>

of incorporation and has all requisite corporate power and authority to own and
operate its properties, to carry on its business as now conducted and as
proposed to be conducted, to enter into the Loan Documents to which it is a
party, to carry out the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby and, in the
case of Company, to issue and pay the Notes.  QC III is a limited partnership
duly formed and validly existing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has
all requisite partnership power and authority to own and operate its properties,
to carry on its business as now conducted and proposed to be conducted, to enter
into the Loan Documents to which it is a party and to carry out the transactions
contemplated hereby and thereby.

     B.   Qualification and Good Standing.  Each Credit Party is qualified to do
business and in good standing in every jurisdiction where its assets are located
and wherever necessary to carry out its business and operations, except in
jurisdictions where the failure to be so qualified or in good standing has not
had and will not have a Material Adverse Effect.

     C.   Conduct of Business.  Company and its Subsidiaries are engaged only in
the businesses permitted to be engaged in pursuant to subsection 7.13.

     D.   Subsidiaries.  All of the Subsidiaries of Company as of the Closing
Date are identified in Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto, as it may be supplemental
pursuant to subsection 4.4N.  The capital stock of each of the Subsidiaries of
Company (other than QC III) is duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable and none of such capital stock constitutes Margin Stock. 
Schedule 5.1 annexed hereto, as it may be supplemented pursuant to
subsection 4.4N, correctly sets forth the ownership interest of Company in each
of its Subsidiaries identified therein.

     E.   Acquisitions.  Company and each Subsidiary making any Acquisition
shall have the corporate, partnership or other power to consummate such
Acquisition upon the consummation thereof, on the terms set forth in the
applicable Acquisition Agreement.  Upon the consummation of any Acquisition,
such Acquisition shall have been duly authorized by all necessary action of
Company and any of its Subsidiaries participating therein.

5.2  Authorization of Borrowing, etc.

     A.   Authorization of Borrowing.  The execution, delivery and performance
of the Loan Documents and the issuance, delivery and payment of the Notes and
Intercompany Notes have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or
partnership action, as the case may be, on the part of each Credit Party party
thereto.

     B.   No Conflict.  The execution, delivery and performance by each Credit
Party of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, the issuance, delivery and
payment of the Notes and the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
the Loan Documents and the issuance of the Subordinated Indebtedness and, from
and after any Acquisition Closing 


                                          87

<PAGE>


Date, the consummation of the related Acquisition, do not and will not
(i) violate any provision of any law or any governmental rule or regulation
applicable to Company or any other Credit Party, the Certificate of
Incorporation, other charter documents or Bylaws of Company or any other Credit
Party, or any order, judgment or decree of any court or other agency of
government binding on Company or any other Credit Party, (ii) conflict with,
result in a breach of or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a
default under any Contractual Obligation of Company or any other Credit Party,
(iii) result in or require the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any of
the properties or assets of Company or any other Credit Party, (other than any
Liens created under any of the Loan Documents in favor of Collateral Agent on
behalf of Lenders), or (iv) require any approval of stockholders or any approval
or consent of any Person under any Contractual Obligation of Company or any
other Credit Party, except for such approvals or consents which will be obtained
on or before the Closing Date (or, in the case of an Acquisition, on or before
the applicable Acquisition Closing Date) and disclosed in writing to Lenders.

     C.   Governmental Consents.  The execution, delivery and performance by
each Credit Party of the Loan Documents, and the Existing Subordinated Note
Documents to which it is a party, the issuance, delivery and payment of the
Notes, the issuance, delivery and payment of the Existing Subordinated Notes
pursuant to the Existing Subordinated Note Documents, and the consummation of
the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents and the Existing
Subordinated Note Documents do not and will not require any registration with,
consent or approval of, or notice to, or other action to, with or by, any
federal, state or other governmental authority or regulatory body, except for
(i) such consents, approvals, filings, recordations and registrations as
contemplated by the Collateral Documents in order to perfect, continue or
enforce the security interests in the Collateral thereunder, (ii) routine
corporate filings to maintain the corporate good standing of Company and its
Subsidiaries, (iii) filing of the Borrower Pledge and Security Agreement and the
Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement with the FCC, (iv) the consents of the
FCC set forth under subsection 6.14 and (v) with respect to any Acquisition,
such consents, filings, approvals and authorizations as shall have been made or
obtained prior to the consummation of such Acquisition.

     D.   Binding Obligation.  Each of the Loan Documents has been duly executed
and delivered by each Credit Party party thereto and is the legally valid and
binding obligation of such Person, enforceable against such Person in accordance
with its respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting creditors'
rights generally or by equitable principles relating to enforceability.

     E.   Valid Issuance of Company Common Stock, Convertible Preferred Stock,
Exchangeable Preferred Stock and Subordinated Indebtedness.  The Company Common
Stock, Convertible Preferred Stock and Exchangeable Preferred Stock has been
duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.  No stockholder of
Company has or will have any preemptive rights to subscribe for any additional
Securities of Company.  The Existing Subordinated Note Documents (and all other
Subordinated Indebtedness) are the legally 


                                          88

<PAGE>


valid and binding obligations of Company, enforceable against Company in
accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar laws relating to or limiting
creditors' rights generally or by equitable principles relating to
enforceability.  The subordination provisions of the Existing Subordinated Note
Documents (and all other Subordinated Indebtedness) will be enforceable against
the holders thereof and the Loans and all other monetary Obligations of Company
hereunder are and will be within the definition of ``Senior Debt'' included in
such provisions, to the extent that they are obligations of Company in respect
of principal, interest, reimbursements of amounts drawn under Letters of Credit,
penalties, fees, expenses, indemnification or other reimbursements.  The
issuance and sale of the Company Common Stock, the Convertible Preferred Stock,
Exchangeable Preferred Stock and the Subordinated Indebtedness either (a) has
been registered or qualified under applicable federal and state securities laws
or (b) was exempt therefrom.

5.3  Financial Condition.

     Company has heretofore delivered to Lenders, at Lenders' request, the
following financial statements and information:  (i) the audited consolidated

of Company and its Subsidiaries for the Fiscal Year then ended and (ii) the
unaudited consolidated balance sheets of Company and its Subsidiaries as at
March 31, 1998 and the related unaudited consolidated statements of income,
stockholders' equity and cash flows of Company and its Subsidiaries for the

entities described in such financial statements as at the respective dates
thereof and the results of operations and cash flows (on a consolidated basis)
of the entities described therein for each of the periods then ended, subject,
in the case of any such unaudited financial statements, to changes resulting
from audit and normal year-end adjustments.  As of the Closing Date, Company
does not (and will not following the funding of the Loans, if any, to be made on
the Closing Date) have any Contingent Obligation, contingent liability or
liability for taxes, long-term lease or unusual forward or long-term commitment
that is not reflected in the foregoing financial statements or the notes thereto
and which in any such case is material in relation to the business, operations,
properties, assets, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of Company
or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.4  No Material Adverse Change; No Restricted Junior Payments.

     Since December 31, 1997, no event or change has occurred that has caused or
evidences, either in any case or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

directly or indirectly declared, ordered, paid or made, or set apart any sum or
property for, any Restricted Junior Payment or agreed to do so except as
permitted by subsection 7.5.

otherwise permitted under subsection 7.7.  Except as permitted by this
Agreement, all such properties and assets are free and clear of Liens.

5.6  Litigation; Adverse Facts.

     There is no action, suit, proceeding, arbitration or governmental
investigation (whether or not purportedly on behalf of Company or any of its

or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality, domestic or foreign, pending or, to the knowledge of Company,
threatened against or affecting Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any
property of Company or any of its Subsidiaries that has had, or could reasonably
be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.  Neither Company nor any of
its Subsidiaries is (i) in violation of any applicable law that has had, or
could reasonably be expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect or
(ii) subject to or in default with respect to any final judgment, writ,
injunction, decree, rule or regulation of any court or any federal, state,
municipal or other governmental department, commission, board, bureau, agency or
instrumentality, domestic or foreign, that has had, or could reasonably be
expected to result in, a Material Adverse Effect.

5.7  Payment of Taxes.

     Except to the extent permitted by subsection 6.3, all tax returns and
reports of Company and its Subsidiaries required to be filed by any of them have
been timely filed, and all taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental
charges upon Company and its Subsidiaries and upon their respective properties,
assets, income, businesses and franchises which are due and payable have been
paid when due and payable.  Company knows of no proposed tax assessment against
Company or any of its Subsidiaries which is not being actively contested by
Company or such Subsidiary in good faith and by appropriate proceedings;
provided that such reserves or other appropriate provisions, if any, as shall be
required in conformity with GAAP shall have been made or provided therefor.

5.8  Performance of Agreements; Materially Adverse Agreements.

     A.   Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is in default in the
performance, observance or fulfillment of any of the obligations, covenants or
conditions contained in any of its Contractual Obligations, and no condition
exists that, with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both, would
constitute such a default, except where the consequences, direct or indirect, of
such default or defaults, if any, would not have a Material Adverse Effect.


                                          90

<PAGE>


     B.   Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is a party to or is
otherwise subject to any agreement or instrument or any charter or other
internal restriction which contains any overly burdensome or restrictive
provision, the compliance with which could reasonably be expected to result in,
individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect.

     Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries is subject to regulation under
the Public Utility Holding Company Act of 1935, the Federal Power Act, the
Interstate Commerce Act or the Investment Company Act of 1940 or under any other
federal or state statute or regulation which may limit its ability to incur
Indebtedness or which may otherwise render all or any portion of the Obligations
unenforceable.

one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the
purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock.

of such computation any Pension Plans with respect to which assets exceed
benefit liabilities), does not exceed $1,000,000.

transactions contemplated by this Agreement (including any Acquisition), the
other Loan Documents and the New Subordinated Note Documents contains any untrue
statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact (known to
Company, in the case of any document not furnished by it) necessary in order to
make the statements contained herein or therein not misleading in light of the
circumstances in which the same were made.  Any projections and pro forma
financial information contained in such materials are based upon good faith
estimates and assumptions believed by Company to be reasonable at the time made,
it being recognized by Lenders that such projections as to future events are not
to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods
covered by any such projections may differ from 


                                          93

<PAGE>

the projected results.  There is no fact known (or which should upon the
reasonable exercise of diligence be known) to Company (other than matters of a

5.16 Regulation of Lenders.

     None of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent nor any Lender will, by

remedies) of any of the Loan Documents, be subject to the regulation or control
of the FCC or any other Communications Regulatory Authority.

5.17 Applicable Law.

     Company and each other Credit Party is in compliance with the requirements
of all applicable laws, rules, regulations, orders, applications, reporting and
licensing requirements of all governmental authorities (including, without
limitation, all Communications Regulatory Authorities) except for violations
thereof which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse
Effect; and none of Company nor any other Credit Party is the subject of any
outstanding citation order or investigation by any Communications Regulatory
Authority which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect,
and no such citation, order or investigation (excluding any rule making
proceeding of general applicability) which could reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect, to the knowledge of Company, is contemplated by any
Communications Regulatory Authority.

5.18 FCC Licenses and Approvals.

     A.   Each of Company and each other Credit Party has all requisite power
and authority and necessary licenses, authorizations, waivers and permits (the
``FCC Licenses'') required under the Communications Act to own and operate its
properties and to carry on its businesses as now conducted and as proposed to be
conducted (other than, for the period prior to any Acquisition Date, with
respect to any properties or businesses to be acquired in connection with such
Acquisition).

     B.   Set forth in Schedule 5.18, as it may be supplemented pursuant to
subsection 4.4N to include the FCC Licenses acquired in connection with any
Acquisition, is a complete list of all FCC Licenses of Company and each other
Credit Party.  Such list correctly sets forth the termination date of each such
FCC License.  Each such FCC License which is materially necessary to the
operation of the business of any such Person is validly issued and in full force
and effect, and constitutes in all material respects, all of the authorization
from any Communications Regulatory Authority necessary for the operation of such
Person's business in the same manner as it is presently conducted and as
proposed to be conducted.  Each of Company and each other Credit Party has taken
all material actions and performed all of its material obligations that are
necessary to maintain such 

                                          94

<PAGE>


FCC Licenses without adverse modification or impairment, and complete and
correct copies of the FCC Licenses of each such Person have been delivered to
Administrative Agent.  No event has occurred which (a) results in, or after
notice or lapse of time or both would result in, revocation, suspension, adverse
modification, non-renewal, impairment or termination of or any order of
forfeiture with respect to, any FCC License or (b) materially and adversely
affects or in the future may (so far as any Credit Party can now reasonably
foresee) materially adversely affect any of the rights of Company or any other
Credit Party of such Person thereunder.  Except as set forth in Schedule 5.18,
as it may be supplemented pursuant to subsection 4.4N to include the FCC
Licenses acquired in connection with any Acquisition, none of the FCC Licenses
requires that any present stockholder, director, officer or employee of Company
or any other Credit Party remain a stockholder or employee of such Person, or
that any transfer of control of such Person must be approved by any public or
governmental body other than the FCC.

     C.   Neither Company nor any other Credit Party is a party to or has
knowledge of any investigation, notice of apparent liability, violation,
forfeiture or other order or complaint issued by or before any court or
regulatory body, including the FCC, or of any other proceedings (other than
proceedings relating to the radio or television industries generally) which
could in any manner threaten or adversely affect the validity or continued
effectiveness of the FCC Licenses of any such Person.  Neither Company nor any
other Credit Party has any reason to believe (other than in connection with
there being no legal assurance thereof) that the FCC Licenses listed and
described in Schedule 5.18 as it may be supplemented pursuant to subsection 4.4N
to include the FCC Licenses acquired in connection with the any Acquisition,
will not be renewed in the ordinary course.  Each of Company and each other
Credit Party, as applicable, has filed in a timely manner all material reports,
applications, documents, instruments and information required to be filed by it
pursuant to applicable rules and regulations or requests of every regulatory
body having jurisdiction over any of its FCC Licenses.

     D.   None of the facilities used in connection with the Credit Parties'
radio or television broadcasting operations (including without limitation, the
transmitter and tower sites owned or used by Company or any of its Subsidiaries)
violates in any material respect the provisions of any applicable building
codes, fire regulations, building restrictions or other governmental ordinances,
orders, or regulations and each such facility is zoned so as to permit the
commercial uses intended by the owner or occupier thereof and there are no
outstanding variances or special use permits materially affecting any of the
facilities or the uses thereof.

     E.   Each Ownership Report filed by the Company and its Subsidiaries with
the FCC was true, correct and complete in all material respects as of the date
of such filing.

5.19 Real Property.

     Neither Company nor any of its Subsidiaries owns any interest in real
property other than the real property interests and the leases identified in
Schedule 5.19 annexed hereto, 


                                          95

<PAGE>


as it may be supplemented pursuant to subsection 4.4N to include any real
property interest acquired by any Credit Party pursuant to any Acquisition. 
Schedule 5.19, as so supplemented, accurately states all real property interests
held by the Credit Parties.

5.20 Insurance.

     Company and its Subsidiaries maintain, with financially sound and reputable
insurers, insurance with respect to its properties and business and the
properties and business of its Subsidiaries, against loss or damage of the kinds
customarily insured against by corporations of established reputation engaged in
the same or similar business of such types and in such amounts as are
customarily carried under similar circumstances by such other corporations all
as determined by the officers of the Company in their reasonable discretion. 
Attached as Schedule 5.20 hereto, as it may be supplemented pursuant to
subsection 4.4N, is a complete and accurate description of all policies of
insurance that are in effect for Company and its Subsidiaries.

5.21 Intellectual Property

     A.   Company and its Subsidiaries own, or are licensed to use, the
Intellectual Property and all such Intellectual Property is fully protected and
duly and properly registered, filed or issued in the appropriate office and
jurisdictions for such registrations, filing or issuances.

     B.   No material claim has been made, or to the best knowledge of Company,
asserted by any Person with respect to the use of any such Intellectual
Property, or challenging or questioning the validity or effectiveness of any
such Intellectual Property.  The use of such Intellectual Property by Company or
any of its Subsidiaries does not infringe on the rights of any Person, subject
to such claims and infringements as do not, in the aggregate, give rise to any
liabilities on the part of Company or any of its Subsidiaries that are material
to Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement will not in any material manner or to any
material extent impair the ownership of (or the license to use, as the case may
be) any of such Intellectual Property by Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

5.22 Loans Permitted under Subordinated Debt Documents.

     All outstanding Loans are, and since the date of borrowing thereof have

any comparable provision of any documents relating to Additional Subordinated
Indebtedness.

5.23 Outstanding Loans.

     None of the Mortgages have become unenforceable as a result of the failure
to pay any additional mortgage recording tax, documentary stamp tax, tax on
intangibles, or other similar taxes due to any state or local governmental
authority by reason of the borrowing, repayment or prepayment, and subsequent
reborrowing of any Loans.

5.24 Year 2000.

     Company and its Subsidiaries have taken all timely action necessary to
assure that on and after January 1, 2000, their computer based systems are able
to process data effectively, including dates, except in respect of any such
computer based system where the absence of such ability to so process data could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

                           COMPANY'S AFFIRMATIVE COVENANTS

amended from time to time, then the types of insurance that Company is required

could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Effect.  Company shall
obtain and maintain, and cause each of its Subsidiaries to obtain and maintain,
all licenses, permits, franchises or other Governmental Authorizations and
approvals (including, without limitation, the FCC Licenses) necessary to own,
acquire or dispose of their respective Properties, to conduct their respective
businesses or to comply with the FCC's or any other Communications Regulatory
Authority's construction, operating and reporting requirements, the violation of

conduct and complete such remedial action in compliance with all applicable
Environmental Laws, and in accordance with the policies, orders and directives
of all federal, state and local governmental authorities except when, and only

<PAGE>

or with respect to any property or asset of any kind (including any document or
instrument in respect of goods or accounts receivable) of Company or any of its
Subsidiaries, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, or any income or profits
therefrom, or file or permit the filing of, or permit to remain in effect, any

               (a)  the aggregate amount of Indebtedness outstanding at any time

          $3,000,000;

               (b)  the transaction in which any Purchase Money Security

such Lien equally and ratably with any and all other Indebtedness secured

<PAGE>

          ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Broadcast Cash Flow
          as calculated pursuant to subsection 7.6A is not greater than
          6.25:1.00; 

     provided further however that (1) Company may make repurchases pursuant to
     clause (e) above in an aggregate cumulative amount in excess of $25,000,000
     but not greater than $40,000,000 if before and after giving effect to any
     such repurchase the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated
     Broadcast Cash Flow as calculated pursuant to subsection 7.6A does not
     exceed 5.75:1.00 and, to the extent that at the time such repurchase is
     made the maximum ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Broadcast
     Cash Flow for the applicable period then in effect pursuant to subsection
     7.6A is greater than 5.75:1.00, such maximum ratio pursuant to subsection
     7.6A for the applicable period then in effect shall (if and only if Company
     actually makes any such repurchase in excess of such $25,000,000 amount) be
     reset at 5.75:1.00 for such period and continuing until the commencement of
     the next period requiring compliance by Company with a maximum ratio lower
     than 5.75:1.00 pursuant to subsection 7.6A, and (2) Company may make
     repurchases pursuant to clause (e) above in an aggregate cumulative amount

     time such repurchase is made the maximum ratio of Consolidated Total Debt
     to Consolidated Broadcast Cash Flow for the applicable period then in
     effect pursuant to subsection 7.6A is greater than 5.50:1.00, such maximum
     ratio pursuant to subsection 7.6A for the applicable period then in effect
     shall (if and only if Company actually makes any such repurchase in excess
     of such $40,000,000 amount) be reset at 5.50:1.00 for such period and
     continuing until the commencement of the next period requiring compliance
     by Company with a maximum ratio lower than 5.50:1.00 pursuant to subsection

     Preferred Stock to the extent required or permitted pursuant to the terms
     of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the
     applicable Certificate of Designations; provided that, if Company desires
     to exercise its option under the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of
     Incorporation and applicable Certificate of Designations to pay such
     dividends in cash rather than through the issuance of additional
     Exchangeable Preferred Stock, Company may pay such cash dividends only so
     long as (a) both before and after giving effect to such dividend, no
     Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing, (b) immediately after giving effect to such dividend, Company
     is in compliance on a Pro Forma Basis with all covenants set forth in
     Section 6 and 7 of this Agreement and (c) after giving effect to such
     dividend, the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to Consolidated Broadcast
     Cash Flow as calculated pursuant to subsection 7.6A is not greater than
     5.50:1.00, or, to the extent the ratio of Consolidated Total Debt to 


                                         116

<PAGE>


     Consolidated Broadcast Cash Flow as calculated pursuant to subsection 7.6A
     is greater than 5.50:1.00, then the aggregate cumulative amount of such
     cash dividends shall be counted against the Dollar limitations for
     repurchases permitted pursuant to 7.5(iv)(e), as modified by the last
     proviso of subsection 7.5(iv);

          (vi) Company may cancel any Convertible Preferred Stock, Exchangeable
     Preferred Stock or Company Common Stock repurchased pursuant to this
     subsection 7.5;

         (vii) if no Potential Event of Default or Event of Default has
     occurred and is continuing and Company has declared a dividend with respect
     to its Exchangeable Preferred Stock, to the extent that such dividend would
     result in the issuance of fractional shares, Company may pay that part of
     such dividend in cash instead of issuing such fractional shares; 

        (viii) Company may redeem the Convertible Preferred Stock on the
     final mandatory redemption date thereof strictly in accordance with the
     terms of the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and
     applicable Certificate of Designations; provided that at the time of such
     redemption, (a) no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has
     occurred and is continuing or would be caused thereby and (b) immediately
     after giving effect to such redemption, Company is in compliance on a Pro
     Forma Basis with all covenants set forth in Sections 6 and 7 of this
     Agreement; and

          (ix) notwithstanding anything in this subsection 7.5 to the contrary
     but subject to the limitation set forth in the final sentence of this
     subsection 7.5, Company may make any Restricted Junior Payment with any
     Equity Proceeds (which Restricted Junior Payments shall not be counted
     towards any limitations set forth in clauses (i) through (viii) above);
     provided that (a) at the time of any such Restricted Junior Payment, no
     Event of Default or Potential Event of Default has occurred and is
     continuing or would be caused thereby, (b) immediately after giving effect
     to each such Restricted Junior Payment, Company is in compliance on a Pro
     Forma Basis with all covenants set forth in Section 6 and 7 of this
     Agreement and (c) such Restricted Junior Payment is otherwise permitted
     pursuant to the terms of the Related Documents.

It is understood and agreed that, except as set forth in clause (iv) of this
subsection, Company shall not make any Restricted Junior Payment in respect of
any redemption, purchase or other acquisition of any shares of any class of
Convertible Preferred Stock, including, without limitation, in connection with
any ``Change of Control'' (as such term is defined in the documentation
governing each such class of Convertible Preferred Stock) which would otherwise
entitle the holders of any shares of Convertible Preferred Stock to require
Company to redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares, other than through
the issuance by Company of shares of any Non-Restricted Capital Stock to such
holders in payment of such shares of Convertible Preferred Stock.

<PAGE>


shall have presented, or shall be entitled at such time to present, the drafts
or other documents or certificates required to draw under such Letter of
Credit), and (c) all other Obligations of the Company under this Agreement and
the Notes shall automatically become immediately due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or other requirements of any kind, all of which are
hereby expressly waived by Company, and the obligation of each Lender to make
any Loan, the obligation of Administrative Agent to issue any Letter of Credit
and the right of any Lender to issue any Letter of Credit hereunder shall
thereupon terminate, and (ii) upon the occurrence and during the continuation of
any other Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall, upon the written request
of Requisite Lenders, by written notice to Company, declare all or any portion
of the amounts described in clauses (a) through (c) above to be, and the same
shall forthwith become, immediately due and payable, and the obligation of each
Lender to make any Loan, the obligation of Administrative Agent to issue any
Letter of Credit and the right of any Lender to issue any Letter of Credit
hereunder shall thereupon terminate; provided that the foregoing shall not
affect in any way the obligations of Lenders under subsection 3.3C(i).

     Any amounts described in clause (b) above, when received by Administrative
Agent, shall be held by Administrative Agent pursuant to such documentation as
the Administrative Agent or Requisite Lenders shall request, as cash collateral
for Company's reimbursement obligations in respect of any drawing under any
Letters of Credit and the payment of the Obligations.

     Notwithstanding anything contained in the second preceding paragraph, if at
any time within 60 days after an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to such
paragraph Company shall pay all arrears of interest and all payments on account

Default and Potential Events of Default (other than non-payment of the principal
of and accrued interest on the Loans, in each case which is due and payable
solely by virtue of acceleration) shall be remedied or waived pursuant to
subsection 10.6, then Requisite Lenders, by written notice to Company, may at
their option rescind and annul such acceleration and its consequences; but such
action shall not affect any subsequent Event of Default or Potential Event of
Default or impair any right consequent thereon.  The provisions of this
paragraph are intended merely to bind Lenders to a decision which may be made at
the election of Requisite Lenders and are not intended to benefit Company and do
not grant Company the right to require Lenders to rescind or annul any
acceleration hereunder, even if the conditions set forth herein are met.

                                        AGENT

other Loan Documents, as successor to the ``Agent'' and the ``Collateral Agent''
as each such term is defined in the Existing Agreement, and each Lender hereby
authorizes Administrative Agent to act as its agent in accordance with the terms
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Administrative Agent agrees to
act upon the express conditions contained in this Agreement and the other Loan
Documents, as applicable.  The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the
benefit of Administrative Agent and Lenders and Company shall have no rights as
a third party beneficiary of any of the provisions thereof.  In performing its
functions and duties under this Agreement, Administrative Agent shall act solely
as an agent of Lenders and does not assume and shall not be deemed to have
assumed any obligation towards or relationship of agency or trust with or for
Company or any of its Subsidiaries.  Administrative Agent reserves the right to
employ the services of its Affiliates, including BT Securities Corporation
(``BTSC''), in providing the services of Administrative Agent contemplated by
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.  Company acknowledges and agrees
that Administrative Agent may share with any of its Affiliates (including BTSC)
any information relating to Company and its Subsidiaries and the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement.

9.2  Powers; General Immunity.

     A.   Duties Specified.  Each Lender irrevocably authorizes Administrative
Agent to take such action on such Lender's behalf and to exercise such powers
hereunder and under the other Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to
Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers
as are reasonably incidental thereto.  Administrative Agent shall have only
those duties and responsibilities that are expressly specified in this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents and it may perform such duties by or through its
agents or employees.  Administrative Agent shall not have, by reason of this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, a fiduciary relationship in
respect of any Lender; and nothing in this Agreement or any of the other Loan
Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to or shall be so construed as to
impose upon Administrative Agent any obligations in respect of this Agreement or
any of the other Loan Documents except as expressly set forth herein or therein.

     B.   No Responsibility for Certain Matters.  Administrative Agent shall not
be responsible to any Lender for the execution, effectiveness, genuineness,
validity, enforceability, collectibility or sufficiency of this Agreement or any
other Loan Document or for any representations, warranties, recitals or
statements made herein or therein or made in any written or oral statement or in
any financial or other statements, instruments, reports or certificates or any
other documents furnished or made by Administrative Agent to Lenders or by or on
behalf of Company to Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with 


                                         129

<PAGE>

the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated thereby or for the
financial condition or business affairs of Company or any other Person liable
for the payment of any Obligations, nor shall Administrative Agent be required
to ascertain or inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms,
conditions, provisions, covenants or agreements contained in any of the Loan
Documents or as to the use of the proceeds of the Loans or the use of the
Letters of Credit or as to the existence or possible existence of any Event of
Default or Potential Event of Default.  Anything contained in this Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, Administrative Agent shall not have any liability
arising from confirmations of the amount of outstanding Loans or the Letter of
Credit Usage or the component amounts thereof.

     C.   Exculpatory Provisions.  Neither Administrative Agent nor any of its
officers, directors, employees or agents shall be liable to Lenders for any
action taken or omitted hereunder or in connection herewith except to the extent
caused by Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  If
Administrative Agent shall request instructions from Lenders with respect to any
act or action (including the failure to take an action) in connection with this
Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, Administrative Agent shall be
entitled to refrain from such act or taking such action unless and until
Administrative Agent shall have received instructions from Requisite Lenders. 
Without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, (i) Administrative Agent
shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any
communication, instrument or document believed by it to be genuine and correct
and to have been signed or sent by the proper person or persons, and shall be
entitled to rely and shall be protected in relying on opinions and judgments of
attorneys (who may be attorneys for Company and its Subsidiaries), accountants,
experts and other professional advisors selected by it; and (ii) no Lender shall
have any right of action whatsoever against Administrative Agent as a result of
Administrative Agent acting or (where so instructed) refraining from acting
under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance with the
instructions of Requisite Lenders.  Administrative Agent shall be entitled to
refrain from exercising any power, discretion or authority vested in it under
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents unless and until it has
obtained the instructions of Requisite Lenders.

     D.   Administrative Agent Entitled to Act as Lender.  The agency hereby
created shall in no way impair or affect any of the rights and powers of, or
impose any duties or obligations upon, Administrative Agent in its individual
capacity as a Lender hereunder.  With respect to its participation in the Loans
and the Letters of Credit, Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and
powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were
not performing the duties and functions delegated to it hereunder, and the term
``Lender'' or ``Lenders'' or any similar term shall, unless the context clearly
otherwise indicates, include Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. 
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to
and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory or other
business with Company or any of its Affiliates as if it were not performing the
duties specified herein, and may accept fees and other consideration from
Company for services in connection with this Agreement and otherwise without
having to account for the same to Lenders.

9.3  Representations and Warranties; No Responsibility For Appraisal of
     Creditworthiness.

     Each Lender represents and warrants that it has made its own independent
investigation of the financial condition and affairs of Company and its
Subsidiaries in connection with the making of the Loans and the issuance of
Letters of Credit hereunder and that it has made and shall continue to make its
own appraisal of the creditworthiness of Company.  Administrative Agent shall
not have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis,
to make any such investigation or any such appraisal on behalf of Lenders or to
provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect thereto,
whether coming into its possession before the making of the Loans or at any time
or times thereafter, and Administrative Agent shall not have any responsibility
with respect to the accuracy of or the completeness of any information provided
to Lenders.

9.4  Right to Indemnity.

     Each Lender, in proportion to its Pro Rata Share, severally agrees to
indemnify Administrative Agent, to the extent that Administrative Agent shall
not have been reimbursed by Company, for and against any and all liabilities,
obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs,
expenses (including, without limitation, counsel fees and disbursements) or
disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred
by or asserted against Administrative Agent in performing its duties hereunder
or under the other Loan Documents or otherwise in any way relating to or arising
out of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents; provided that no Lender shall
be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages,
penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting
from Administrative Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.  If any
indemnity furnished to Administrative Agent for any purpose shall, in the
opinion of Administrative Agent, be insufficient or become impaired,
Administrative Agent may call for additional indemnity and cease, or not
commence, to do the acts indemnified against until such additional indemnity is
furnished.

9.5  Payee of Note Treated as Owner.

     Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner
thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until an Assignment and Acceptance
effecting the assignment or transfer thereof shall have been accepted by
Administrative Agent as provided in subsection 10.1B(iii).  Any request,
authority or consent of any person or entity who, at the time of making such
request or giving such authority or consent, is the holder of any Note shall be
conclusive and binding on any subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of that
Note or of any Note or Notes issued in exchange therefor.

9.6  Successor Administrative Agent.

     Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days' prior
written notice thereof to Lenders and Company.  Upon any such notice of
resignation, Requisite Lenders 



                                         131

<PAGE>

shall have the right, upon receiving Company's consent (provided that such
consent shall not be required during the continuance of an Event of Default if
such successor Administrative Agent is a Lender, and shall not otherwise be
unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent.  Upon the
acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor
Administrative Agent that successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed
to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the
retiring Administrative Agent and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be
discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.  After any
retiring Administrative Agent's resignation hereunder, the provisions of this
Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be
taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

9.7  Appointment of Collateral Agent.

     Each Lender hereby appoints Bankers to serve as Collateral Agent and to act
as such under the Collateral Documents.  Each Lender hereby further authorizes
Collateral Agent to enter into the Collateral Documents on behalf of and for the
benefit of Lenders and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Collateral
Documents; provided that Collateral Agent shall not enter into or consent to any
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision contained in the
Collateral Documents without the prior consent of the Requisite Lenders or the
Lenders, as may be required by subsection 10.6 of this Agreement.  Each Lender
agrees that no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon the
security granted by the Collateral Documents, it being understood and agreed
that such rights and remedies may be exercised by Administrative Agent or
Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders in accordance with the terms of such
agreements.


                                     SECTION 10.
                                    MISCELLANEOUS

10.1 Assignments and Participations in Loans and Letters of Credit.

     A.   General.  Subject to subsection 10.1B, each Lender shall have the
right at any time to (i) sell, assign, transfer or negotiate to any Eligible
Assignee, or (ii) sell participations to any Person in, all or any part of its
Commitments or any Loan or Loans made by it or its Letters of Credit or
participations therein or any other interest herein or in any other Obligations
owed to it; provided that no such assignment or participation shall, without the
consent of Company, require Company to file a registration statement with the
Securities and Exchange Commission or apply to qualify such assignment or
participation under the securities laws of any state.  Except as otherwise
provided in this subsection 10.1, no Lender shall, as between Company and such
Lender, be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder as a result of any sale,
assignment, transfer or negotiation of, or any granting of participations in,
all or any part of its Commitments or the Loans, the Letters of Credit or
participations therein or the other Obligations owed to such Lender; provided,
further that no such sale, assignment, transfer or participation of any Letter
of Credit or any 

                                         132

<PAGE>

participation therein may be made separately from a sale, assignment, transfer
or participation of a corresponding interest in the Revolving Loan Commitment
and the Revolving Loans of the Lender effecting such sale, assignment, transfer
or participation.

     B.   Assignments.

          (i)  Amounts and Terms of Assignments.  Each Commitment, Loan, Letter
     of Credit or participation therein or other Obligation may (a) be assigned
     in any amount to another Lender, or to an Affiliate of the assigning Lender
     or another Lender, with the giving of notice to Company and Administrative
     Agent or (b) be assigned in an aggregate amount of not less than $5,000,000
     (or such lesser amount as shall constitute the aggregate amount of the
     Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit and participations therein and other
     Obligations of the assigning Lender) to any other Eligible Assignee with
     the giving of notice to Company and with the consent of Administrative
     Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld).  To the extent of
     any such assignment in accordance with either clause (a) or (b) above, the
     assigning Lender shall be relieved of its obligations with respect to its
     Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or participations therein or other
     Obligations or the portion thereof so assigned.  The parties to each such
     assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its
     acceptance, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a processing fee of
     $3,500 (provided, however, that no such processing fees shall be payable in
     the case of assignments pursuant to this subsection 10.1 effected during
     the first five Business Days immediately following of the Closing Date) and
     such certificates, documents or other evidence, if any, with respect to
     United States federal income tax withholding matters as the assignee under
     such Assignment and Acceptance may be required to deliver to Administrative
     Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii).  Upon such execution, delivery and
     acceptance, from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment
     and Acceptance, (y) the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to
     the extent that rights (other than any rights which survive the termination
     of this Agreement under subsection 10.9B) and obligations hereunder have
     been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have
     the rights and obligations of a Lender hereunder and (z) the assigning
     Lender thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations
     hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and
     Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations
     under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance
     covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender's rights and
     obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party
     hereto; provided that, anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to
     the contrary notwithstanding, if such Lender is the Issuing Lender with
     respect to any outstanding Letters of Credit such Lender shall continue to
     have all rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender with respect to such
     Letters of Credit until the cancellation or expiration of such Letters of
     Credit and the reimbursement of any amounts drawn thereunder).  The
     Commitments hereunder shall be modified to reflect the Commitment of such
     assignee and any remaining Commitment of such assigning Lender and, if any
     such 


                                         133

<PAGE>

     assignment occurs after the issuance of the Notes hereunder, new Notes
     shall, upon surrender of the assigning Lender's Notes, be issued (at the
     expense of Company) to the assignee and to the assigning Lender,
     substantially in the form of Exhibit IV or Exhibit V annexed hereto, as the
     case may be, with appropriate insertions, to reflect the new Commitments
     and/or outstanding Additional Credit Loans, as the case may be, of the
     assignee and the assigning Lender.

          (ii) Acceptance by Administrative Agent.  Upon its receipt of an
     Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee
     representing that it is an Eligible Assignee, together with the processing
     fee referred to in subsection 10.1B(i) and any certificates, documents or
     other evidence with respect to United States federal income tax withholding
     matters that such assignee may be required to deliver to Administrative
     Agent pursuant to subsection 2.7B(iii), Administrative Agent shall, if such
     Assignment and Acceptance has been completed and is in substantially the
     form of Exhibit X hereto and if Administrative Agent has consented to the
     assignment evidenced thereby (to the extent such consent is required
     pursuant to subsection 10.1B(i)), (a) accept such Assignment and Acceptance
     by executing a counterpart thereof as provided therein (which acceptance
     shall evidence any required consent of Administrative Agent to such
     assignment) and (b) give prompt notice thereof to Company.  Administrative
     Agent shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to
     and accepted by it as provided in this subsection 10.1B(ii).

     C.   Participations.  The holder of any participation, other than an
Affiliate of the Lender granting such participation, shall not be entitled to
require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except action
directly affecting (i) the extension of the scheduled final maturity date of the
principal amount of or interest on any Loan allocated to such participation or
(ii) a reduction of the principal amount of or the rate of interest payable on
any Loan allocated to such participation, and all amounts payable by Company
hereunder (including without limitation amounts payable to such Lender pursuant
to subsections 2.6D, 2.7 and 3.6) shall be determined as if such Lender had not
sold such participation.  Company and each Lender hereby acknowledge and agree
that, solely for purposes of subsections 10.4 and 10.5, (a) any participation
will give rise to a direct obligation of Company to the participant and (b) the
participant shall be considered to be a ``Lender''.

     D.   Assignments to Federal Reserve Banks.  In addition to the assignments
and participations permitted under the foregoing provisions of this subsection
10.1, any Lender may assign and pledge all or any portion of its Loans, the
other Obligations owed to such Lender and its Notes to any Federal Reserve Bank
as collateral security pursuant to Regulation A of the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and any operating circular issued by such Federal Reserve
Bank.  No Lender shall, as between Company and such Lender, be relieved of any
of its obligations hereunder as a result of any such assignment and pledge.

                                         134


<PAGE>

     E.   Information.  Each Lender may furnish any information concerning
Company and its Subsidiaries in the possession of that Lender from time to time
to assignees and participants (including prospective assignees and
participants), subject to subsection 10.19.

10.2 Expenses.

     Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated,
Company agrees to pay promptly (i) all the actual and reasonable costs and
expenses of preparation of the Loan Documents; (ii) all the costs of furnishing
all opinions by counsel for Company and the other Credit Parties (including
without limitation any opinions requested by Lenders as to any legal matters
arising hereunder) and of Company's performance of and compliance with all
agreements and conditions on its part to be performed or complied with under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents including, without limitation, with
respect to confirming compliance with environmental and insurance requirements;
(iii) the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of counsel to
Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (including allocated costs of internal
counsel) in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution and
administration of the Loan Documents and the Loans and any consents, amendments,
waivers or other modifications hereto or thereto and any other documents or
matters requested by Company; (iv) all other actual and reasonable costs and
expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with the syndication of
the Commitments, the negotiation, preparation execution and administration of
the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby; (v) all
the actual costs and expenses of creating and perfecting Liens in favor of
Collateral Agent for the benefit of Lenders pursuant to any Loan Document,
including filing and recording fees and expenses, title insurance, fees and
expenses of counsel for providing such opinions as Lenders may reasonably
request and reasonable fees and expenses of legal counsel to Administrative
Agent and Collateral Agent; and (vi) after the occurrence of an Event of
Default, all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees (including
allocated costs of internal counsel) and costs of settlement, incurred by
Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and Lenders in enforcing any Obligations
of or in collecting any payments due from Company hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents by reason of such Event of Default or in connection with any
refinancing or restructuring of the credit arrangements provided under this
Agreement in the nature of a ``work-out'' or pursuant to any insolvency or
bankruptcy proceedings.

10.3 Indemnity.

     In addition to the payment of expenses pursuant to subsection 10.2, whether
or not the transactions contemplated hereby shall be consummated, Company agrees
to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless Administrative Agent, Collateral
Agent, Co-Agents, Documentation Agent and Lenders, and the officers, directors,
partners, shareholders, employees, agents and affiliates of Administrative
Agent, Collateral Agent, Co-Agents, Documentation Agent and Lenders
(collectively called the ``Indemnitees'') from and against any and all other
liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits,
claims, costs, expenses and disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever
(including 


                                         135

<PAGE>

without limitation the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for such
Indemnitees in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial
proceeding commenced or threatened by any Person, whether or not any such
Indemnitee shall be designated as a party or a potential party thereto), whether
direct, indirect or consequential and whether based on any federal, state or
foreign laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including without limitation
securities and commercial laws, statutes, rules or regulations and Environmental
Laws), on common law or equitable cause or on contract or otherwise, that may be
imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against any such Indemnitee, in any manner
relating to or arising out of the Commitment Letter, this Agreement or the other
Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including
without limitation Lenders' agreement to make the Loans hereunder or the use or
intended use of the proceeds of any of the Loans or the issuance of Letters of
Credit hereunder or the use or intended use of any of the Letters of Credit) or
the statements contained in the commitment letter delivered by any Lender to
Company with respect thereto (collectively called the ``Indemnified
Liabilities''); provided that Company shall not have any obligation to any
Indemnitee hereunder (i) with respect to any Indemnified Liabilities to the
extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise solely from the gross negligence or
willful misconduct of that Indemnitee as determined by a final judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) with respect to judicial proceedings
commenced against such Indemnitee by any holder of the debt or equity securities
of such Indemnitee based solely on the rights afforded such holder in its
capacity as such, and (iii) with respect to judicial proceedings commenced
solely against such Indemnitee by another Indemnitee.  To the extent that the
undertaking to defend, indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in the
preceding sentence may be unenforceable because it is violative of any law or
public policy, Company shall contribute the maximum portion that it is permitted
to pay and satisfy under applicable law to the payment and satisfaction of all
Indemnified Liabilities incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them.  The
provisions of this subsection 10.3 shall supersede the indemnification
provisions contained in the Commitment Letter.

10.4 Set-Off.

     In addition to any rights now or hereafter granted under applicable law and
not by way of limitation of any such rights, upon the occurrence of any Event of
Default each Lender is hereby authorized by Company at any time or from time to
time, with prior written consent of Administrative Agent, but without notice to
Company or to any other Person, any such notice being hereby expressly waived,
to set off and to appropriate and to apply any and all deposits (general or
special, including, but not limited to, Indebtedness evidenced by certificates
of deposit, whether matured or unmatured, but not including trust accounts) and
any other Indebtedness at any time held or owing by that Lender to or for the
credit or the account of Company against and on account of the obligations and
liabilities of Company to that Lender under this Agreement, the Notes, the
Letters of Credit and participations therein, including, but not limited to, all
claims of any nature or description arising out of or connected with this
Agreement, the Notes, the Letters of Credit and participations therein or any
other Loan Document, irrespective of whether or not (i) that Lender shall have
made any demand hereunder or (ii) the principal of or the interest 


                                         136

<PAGE>

on the Loans or any amounts in respect of the Letters of Credit or any other
amounts due hereunder shall have become due and payable pursuant to Section 8
and although said obligations and liabilities, or any of them, may be contingent
or unmatured.

10.5 Ratable Sharing.

     Lenders hereby agree among themselves that if any of them shall, whether by
voluntary payment, by realization upon security, through the exercise of any
right of set-off or banker's lien, by counterclaim or cross action or by the
enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents or otherwise, or as adequate
protection of a deposit treated as cash collateral under the Bankruptcy Code,
receive payment or reduction of a proportion of the aggregate amount of
principal, interest, amounts payable in respect of Letters of Credit, fees and
other amounts then due and owing to that Lender hereunder or under the other
Loan Documents (collectively, the ``Aggregate Amounts Due'' to such Lender)
which is greater than the proportion received by any other Lender in respect of
the Aggregate Amounts Due to such other Lender, then the Lender receiving such
proportionately greater payment shall (i) notify Administrative Agent and each
other Lender of the receipt of such payment and (ii) apply a portion of such
payment to purchase participations (which it shall be deemed to have purchased
from each seller of a participation simultaneously upon the receipt by such
seller of its portion of such payment) in the Aggregate Amounts Due to the other
Lenders so that all such recoveries of Aggregate Amounts Due shall be shared by
all Lenders in proportion to the Aggregate Amounts Due to them; provided that if
all or part of such proportionately greater payment received by such purchasing
Lender is thereafter recovered from such Lender upon the bankruptcy or
reorganization of Company or otherwise, those purchases shall be rescinded and
the purchase prices paid for such participations shall be returned to such
purchasing Lender ratably to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. 
Company expressly consents to the foregoing arrangement and agrees that any
holder of a participation so purchased may exercise any and all rights of
banker's lien, set-off or counterclaim with respect to any and all monies owing
by Company to that holder with respect thereto as fully as if that holder were
owed the amount of the participation held by that holder.

10.6 Amendments and Waivers.

     A.  No amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of
this Agreement, the Notes, the Borrower Pledge and Security Agreement, the
Subsidiary Guaranty, the Subsidiary Pledge and Security Agreement or the
Mortgages, or consent to any departure by Company or any other Credit Party
therefrom, shall in any event be effective without the written concurrence of
Requisite Lenders; provided that any such amendment, modification, termination,
waiver or consent which:  increases the amount of any of the Commitments or
reduces the principal amount of any of the Loans; increases the maximum amount
of Letters of Credit; changes any Lender's Pro Rata Share; changes in any manner
the definition of ``Requisite Lenders''; postpones the scheduled final maturity
date (or the date of any scheduled installment of principal) of any of the Loans
or reduces the amount of any scheduled payment (but not prepayment) or reduction
of Commit-


                                         137


<PAGE>

ments thereof; postpones the date on which any interest or any fees are payable;
decreases the interest rate borne by any of the Loans (other than any waiver of
any increase in the interest rate applicable to any of the Loans pursuant to
subsection 2.2E) or the amount of any fees payable hereunder; changes in any
manner the provisions contained in subsection 8.1 or this subsection 10.6;
increases the maximum duration of Interest Periods permitted hereunder; reduces
the amount or postpones the due date of any amount payable in respect of, or
extends the required expiration date of, any Letter of Credit; changes in any
manner the obligations of Lenders relating to the purchase of participations in
Letters of Credit; changes in any manner any provision of this Agreement which,
by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of all Lenders;
releases all or substantially all of the Collateral; or releases any Credit
Party from its obligations under the Subsidiary Guaranty (other than in
connection with an Asset Sale permitted hereunder) shall be effective only if
evidenced by a writing signed by or on behalf of all Lenders.  In addition,
(i) any amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any of the provisions
contained in Section 4 shall be effective only if evidenced by a writing signed
by or on behalf of Administrative Agent and Requisite Lenders, (ii) no
amendment, modification, termination or waiver of any provision of any Note
shall be effective without the written concurrence of the Lender which is the
holder of that Note, and (iii) no amendment, modification, termination or waiver
of any provision of Section 9 or of any other provision of this Agreement which,
by its terms, expressly requires the approval or concurrence of Administrative
Agent shall be effective without the written concurrence of Administrative
Agent.

     B.  If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification,
termination or waiver to any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Notes, the
Borrower Pledge and Security Agreement, the Subsidiary Guaranty, the Subsidiary
Pledge and Security Agreement or the Mortgages as contemplated by the first
proviso of subsection 10.6A, the consent of the Requisite Lenders is obtained
but the consent of one or more of such other Lenders whose consent is required
is not obtained, then Company shall have the right, so long as all
non-consenting Lenders whose individual consent is required are treated as
described in either clause (i) or (ii) below, to either (i) replace each such
non-consenting Lender or Lenders with one or more Replacement Lenders pursuant
to subsection 2.10 so long as at the time of such replacement, each such
Replacement Lender consents to the proposed amendment, modification, termination
or waiver, or (ii) terminate such non-consenting Lender's Commitments and repay
in full its outstanding Loans in accordance with subsections 2.4B(i)(b) and
2.4B(ii)(c); provided that unless the Commitments that are terminated and the
Loans that are repaid pursuant to the preceding clause (ii) are immediately
replaced in full at such time through the addition of new Lenders or the
increase of the Commitments and/or outstanding Loans of existing Lenders (who in
each case must specifically consent thereto), then in the case of any action
pursuant to the preceding clause (ii), the Requisite Lenders (determined before
giving effect to the proposed action) shall specifically consent thereto;
provided further that Company shall not have the right to terminate such
non-consenting Lender's Commitments and repay in full its outstanding Loans
pursuant to clause (ii) of this subsection 10.6B if, immediately after the
termination of such Lender's Commitments in accordance with
subsection 2.4B(ii)(c), the Revolving Loan Exposure of all Lenders would exceed
the Revolving Loan Commit-


                                         138

<PAGE>

ments of all Lenders or the Additional Credit Loan Exposure of all Lenders 
party to any Additional Credit Facility Supplement would exceed the 
Additional Credit Commitments of all Lenders party to such Additional Credit 
Facility Supplement; provided still further that Company shall not have the 
right to replace a Lender solely as a result of the exercise of such Lender's 
rights (and the withholding of any required consent by such Lender) pursuant 
to the second sentence of subsection 10.6A.

     C.  Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the
concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or
consents on behalf of that Lender.  Any waiver or consent shall be effective
only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was
given.  No notice to or demand on Company in any case shall entitle Company to
any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.  Any
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent effected in accordance
with this subsection 10.6 shall be binding upon each Lender at the time
outstanding, each future Lender and, if signed by Company, on Company.

10.7 Independence of Covenants.

     All covenants hereunder shall be given independent effect so that if a
particular action or condition is not permitted by any of such covenants, the
fact that it would be permitted by an exception to, or would otherwise be within
the limitations of, another covenant shall not avoid the occurrence of an Event
of Default or Potential Event of Default if such action is taken or condition
exists.

10.8 Notices.

     Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice or other
communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and
may be personally served, telecopied, telexed or sent by United States mail or
courier service and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person
or by courier service, upon receipt of telecopy or telex, or four Business Days
after depositing it in the United States mail, registered or certified, with
postage prepaid and properly addressed; provided that notices to Administrative
Agent shall not be effective until received.  For the purposes hereof, the
address of each party hereto shall be as set forth under such party's name on
the signature pages hereof or (i) as to Company and Administrative Agent, such
other address as shall be designated by such Person in a written notice
delivered to the other parties hereto and (ii) as to each other party, such
other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice delivered
to Administrative Agent.

and the issuance of the Letters of Credit hereunder.


                                         139

<PAGE>

     B.   Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or implied by law to the
contrary, the agreements of Company set forth in subsections 2.6D, 2.7, 3.5,
3.6, 5.12, 10.2, 10.3 and 10.4 and the agreements of Lenders set forth in
subsections 9.2C, 9.4 and 10.5 shall survive the payment of the Loans, the
cancellation or expiration of the Letters of Credit and the reimbursement of any
amounts drawn thereunder, and the termination of this Agreement.

10.10 Failure or Indulgence Not Waiver; Remedies Cumulative.

     No failure or delay on the part of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent
or any Lender in the exercise of any power, right or privilege hereunder or
under any other Loan Document shall impair such power, right or privilege or be
construed to be a waiver of any default or acquiescence therein, nor shall any
single or partial exercise of any such power, right or privilege preclude other
or further exercise thereof or of any other power, right or privilege.  All
rights and remedies existing under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents
are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise
available.

10.11 Marshalling; Payments Set Aside.

     None of Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or any Lender shall be under
any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of Company or any other party or
against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations.  To the extent that
Company makes a payment or payments to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent
or Lenders (or to Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent for the benefit of
Lenders), or Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent or Lenders enforce any
security interests or exercise their rights of setoff, and such payment or
payments or the proceeds of such enforcement or setoff or any part thereof are
subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside
and/or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any
bankruptcy law, any other state or federal law, common law or any equitable
cause, then, to the extent of such recovery, the obligation or part thereof
originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies therefor
or related thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as
if such payment or payments had not been made or such enforcement or setoff had
not occurred.

10.12 Severability.

     In case any provision in or obligation under this Agreement or the Notes
shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the validity,
legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations, or of
such provision or obligation in any other jurisdiction, shall not in any way be
affected or impaired thereby.

10.13 Obligations Several; Independent Nature of Lenders' Rights.

     The obligations of Lenders hereunder are several and no Lender shall be
responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender hereunder. 
Nothing contained 

                                         140

<PAGE>

herein or in any other Loan Document, and no action taken by Lenders pursuant
hereto or thereto, shall be deemed to constitute Lenders as a partnership, an
association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at
any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and
each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of
this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined
as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

10.14 Headings.

     Section and subsection headings in this Agreement are included herein for
convenience of reference only and shall not constitute a part of this Agreement
for any other purpose or be given any substantive effect.

respective successors and assigns and shall inure to the benefit of the parties

Lenders' rights of assignment are subject to subsection 10.1).  Neither
Company's rights or obligations hereunder nor any interest therein may be
assigned or delegated by Company without the prior written consent of all
Lenders.

10.17 Consent to Jurisdiction and Service of Process.

     ALL JUDICIAL PROCEEDINGS BROUGHT AGAINST COMPANY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING
TO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR ANY OBLIGATION MAY BE BROUGHT IN

jurisdiction in any action against Company in the State of New York may be made
by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to Company at its

service shall be effective and binding in every respect.  Nothing herein shall
affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall
limit the right of any Lender to bring proceedings against Company in the courts
of any other jurisdiction.

10.18 Waiver of Jury Trial.

     EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY AGREES TO WAIVE ITS RESPECTIVE
RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT

including without limitation contract claims, tort claims, breach of duty claims
and all other common law and statutory claims.  Each party hereto acknowledges

10.19 Confidentiality.

     Each Lender shall hold all non-public information obtained pursuant to the
requirements of this Agreement which has been identified as confidential by
Company in accordance with such Lender's customary procedures for handling
confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and sound
banking practices, it being understood 


                                         142

<PAGE>

and agreed by Company that in any event a Lender may make disclosures reasonably
required by any bona fide assignee, transferee or participant in connection with
the contemplated assignment or transfer by such Lender of any Loans or any
participation therein (provided that such Person agrees to be bound by the
provisions of this subsection 10.19) or as required or requested by any
governmental agency or representative thereof or pursuant to legal process;
provided that, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order,
each Lender shall notify Company of any request by any governmental agency or
representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with any
examination of the financial condition of such Lender by such governmental
agency) for disclosure of any such non-public information prior to disclosure of
such information; and provided, further that in no event shall any Lender be
obligated or required to return any materials furnished by Company or any of its
Subsidiaries.

10.20 Counterparts; Effectiveness.

     This Agreement and any amendments, waivers, consents or supplements hereto
or in connection herewith may be executed in any number of counterparts and by
different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so
executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts
together shall constitute but one and the same instrument; signature pages may
be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single
counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same
document.  It is the intention of each of the parties hereto that the Existing
Agreement be amended and restated to preserve the perfection and priority of all
security interests securing indebtedness under the Existing Agreement, the other
Loan Documents and the Notes and that all indebtedness and obligations of the
Company and its Subsidiaries hereunder and thereunder shall be secured by the
Mortgages and the Collateral Documents.  This Agreement constitutes an amendment
of the Existing Agreement made under the terms of subsection 10.6.  This
Agreement shall become effective upon the execution of a counterpart hereof by
each of the parties hereto and receipt by Company and Administrative Agent of
written or telephonic notification of such execution and authorization of
delivery thereof; provided, that unless and until all the conditions set forth
in Section 4.1 have been satisfied or waived by Administrative Agent or Lenders
then the Existing Agreement shall remain in full force and effect without giving
effect to the amendments set forth herein, as if this Fourth Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement shall have never been executed and delivered.  Any
references in the Loan Documents to specific section numbers of the 1993
Agreement, the First Restated Agreement, the Second Restated Agreement or the
Existing Agreement, as the case may be, or to specific Schedules or Exhibits
thereof shall be deemed to refer to the appropriate section numbers of this
Agreement (however numbered) corresponding to the specific numbered sections of
the 1993 Agreement, the First Restated Agreement, the Second Restated Agreement
or the Existing Agreement, as the case may be, or to the appropriate Schedules
or Exhibits hereof (however identified) corresponding to the specific Schedules

10.21 Maximum Amount.

     A.   It is the intention of Company and Lenders to conform strictly to the
usury and similar laws relating to interest from time to time in force, and all
agreements between Company and Lenders, whether now existing or hereafter
arising and whether oral or written, are hereby expressly limited so that in no
contingency or event whatsoever, whether by acceleration of maturity hereof or
otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid in the aggregate to
Lenders or to Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders as interest hereunder or
under the other Loan Documents or in any other security agreement given to
secure the Obligations, or in any other document evidencing, securing or
pertaining to the indebtedness evidenced hereby or thereby, exceed the maximum
amount permissible under applicable usury or such other laws (the ``Maximum
Amount'').  If under any circumstances whatsoever fulfillment of any provision
hereof, or any of the other Loan Documents, at the time performance of such
provision shall be due, shall involve exceeding the Maximum Amount, then, ipso
facto, the obligation to be fulfilled shall be reduced to the Maximum Amount. 
For the purposes of calculating the actual amount of interest paid and/or
payable hereunder, in respect of laws pertaining to usury or such other laws,
all sums paid or agreed to be paid to the holder hereof for the use, forbearance
or detention of the indebtedness of Company evidenced hereby, outstanding from
time to time shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be amortized,
pro-rated, allocated and spread from the date of disbursement of the proceeds of
the Loans until payment in full of all of such indebtedness, so that the actual
rate of interest on account of such indebtedness is uniform through the term
hereof.  The terms and provisions of this subsection shall control and supersede
every other provision of all agreements between Company, the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders.

     B.   If under any circumstances Lenders shall ever receive an amount which
would exceed the Maximum Amount, such amount shall be deemed a payment in
reduction of the principal amount of the Loans and shall be treated as a
voluntary prepayment under subsection 2.4B(i), and shall be so applied in
accordance with subsection 2.4B(iv) hereof, or if such excessive interest
exceeds the unpaid balance of the Loan and any other indebtedness of Company in
favor of Lender, the excess shall be deemed to have been a payment made by
mistake and shall be refunded to Company.

                            ENVIRONMENTAL EXCEPTIONS

WTVH - Syracuse, New York

1.  One 5,000 gallon steel fuel oil underground storage tank at transmitting 
    tower site 35-40 years old. The last pressure test was conducted in July 
    1993 and indicated good tank integrity.

2.  PCBs in small (less than 3 lb.) capacitors in transmitter building at 
    tower site.

3.  Asbestos exists as pipe insulation and possibly as electrical wiring 
    insulation at office/studio building. Asbestos may also exist at the 
    transmitter building.

4.  De minimis amounts of Hazardous Materials such as paint, cleaning 
    solutions, liquid paper, etc., that customarily are used at a television 
    broadcasting station have been used on the properties.

5.  WTVH utilizes Carrier chiller for air conditioning. This chiller uses 
    R-113 refrigerant which is a CFC product. The future use and production 
    of this type of CFC is under review and possibly may be outlawed in the 
    foreseeable future.

KSEE - Fresno, California

1.  PCBs in one pole mounted transformer at transmitter building at 
    transmitter tower site.

2.  There was probably asbestos piping insulation at the transmitter building 
    and pieces of probable asbestos transite roof tiling scattered on the 
    ground around that building which substances have been removed.

3.  De minimis amounts of Hazardous Materials such as paint, cleaning 
    solution, liquid paper, etc., that customarily are used at a television 
    broadcasting station have been used on the properties.

4.  The air conditioning system uses a CFC product for a refrigerant. The 
    future use and production of this type of CFC is under review and possibly 
    may be outlawed in the foreseeable future.

                                       1

KBJR - Duluth, Minnesota

1.  Possible asbestos-containing building materials in station building.

WEEK - Peoria, Illinois

1.  Possible PCBs in two unlabeled transformers.

2.  Possible asbestos-containing building materials in station building; none 
    were observed to be friable and all were in good condition.

3.  Neighboring property apparently has a leaking underground storage tank; 
    any possible effect on the station property remains to be investigated.

KNTV - San Jose, California

1. Possible asbestos-containing building materials in station building; none 
   were observed to be friable and all appeared in good condition.

2. Significant handling of hazardous materials occurs at this site. Staining 
   of sink in one area indicates that substances of an unknown nature may have 
   previously been poured down the drain.

3. Facility may have to apply for an operating permit under California air 
   quality regulations governing facilities handing volatile organic compounds.


4. Some neighboring properties appear to have leaking underground storage 
   tanks and other possible problems; further investigation of any potential 
   impact on station property is planned, but not yet conducted.

WPTA - Fort Wayne, Indiana

1. Possible asbestos-containing building materials in station building; none 
   were observed to be friable and all appeared in good condition.

2. Site had two underground storage fuel tanks, one of which was removed and 
   one of which remains, but was taken out of fuel service and filled with 
   water. No soil samples have been taken to determine whether either tank may 
   have leaked fuel into the soil. The water in the remaining tank has not 
   dropped in level and thus indicates that the tank has probably not leaked.

3. Presence of PCPs in electrical components is unknown, but there is no 
   evidence of leakage from any unit.

4. Several neighboring sites with possible contamination problems were 
   identified; further investigation of any potential impact on station 
   property is planned, but not yet conducted.

KBVO - Austin, Texas

1. A flushing agent used approximately every six months to clean the 
   transmitter cooling system at the transmitter site was discharged outside 
   the building onto the ground. Shallow soil sampling revealed elevated levels
   of lead and cadmium at one location. The soil was


                                       2


<PAGE>

    excavated within the area of probable impact and placed into two 55 
    gallon drums which drums were removed in 1995.

2.  One sample of floor tile at the studio building tested positive for 
    asbestos content. The material was in good condition; no friable suspect 
    asbestos material was observed in the building.

WWMT - Kalamazoo/Yankee Springs, Michigan

1.  One 4,000 gallon diesel fuel underground storage tank was closed in place 
    in December 1997, at the Kalamazoo facility. Granite's environmental 
    contractor filed a closure report with the Michigan Department of 
    Environmental Quality ("MDEQ") on January 14, 1998.

2.  A magnetic survey of the site performed in 1998 detected another 
    underground storage tank at the Kalamazoo facility, which likely was part 
    of a former auto sales and service business located on the site prior to 
    1957. Further investigation determined that the tank was filled with 
    sand, and that no contamination was detected that could be associated 
    with the tank.

3.  The 1957 site plan also indicates the presence of a dry well near the 
    northern side of the building; the well was to be filled with concrete. 
    Its prior use and exact location are unknown.

4.  There are some possible asbestos containing materials at the studio site, 
    including a friable wrap on a boiler in the boiler room, some cracked 
    floor tiling and other types of materials which often contain asbestos 
    (ceiling tiles, wall surfacing, etc.). The presence of asbestos in these 
    materials has not been confirmed.

5.  No testing of soils was conducted at the time of removal of the hoists 
    and other equipment of the former automobile dealership.

6.  The transmitter site in Yankee Springs is adjacent to a landfill which 
    has contaminated the groundwater in the area. There is no indication 
    that the transmitter site is in any way responsible for the 
    contamination. On May 5, 1998, the MDEQ provided Granite a "no migration" 
    letter, which stated that, under Michigan law, Granite is not liable for 
    the contamination so long as Granite did not contribute to the 
    contamination.

WKBW - Buffalo, New York

1.  The transmitter site in Colden, New York includes a 1,000 gallon diesel 
    fuel underground storage tank used solely to power the back-up generator 
    in the event of a power failure. It was installed in 1958 and has 
    recently been registered as required pursuant to Environmental Laws. Leak 
    detection testing to determine the integrity of the tank was not done 
    prior to the end of June, 1995. Soil testing around the tank indicates 
    some spillage or leakage resulting in the presence of volatile organic 
    compounds ("VOCs") detected in the samples; the VOCs detected did not 
    exceed the clean up levels established by the New York State Department 
    of Environment Conservation ("NYSDEC"). Semi-volatile organic compounds 
    were not detected, but detection levels exceeded NYSDEC clean up levels as 
    a result of interference from another constituent, probably diesel fuel, 
    which was detected in the soil samples. The spillage or leakage has been 
    reported to the appropriate environmental regulatory agencies as required 
    under Environmental Laws. The storage tank was removed in 1995 and 
    replaced by a new underground storage tank.

                                       3

2. There is an active 4,000 gallon gasoline udnerground storage tank located 
   on the studio site which is registered under the New York Petroleum Bulk 
   Storage regulatory scheme and as required under Environmental Laws. The 
   tank was installed in 1979 and was tested in 1990, when it was found to 
   be within allowable limits of the testing requirements. The tank and 
   associated piping were retested in June, 1995 and found to meet 
   applicable standards. However, some gasoline-related VOCs were found in 
   soil samples taken near the fill port and at the other end of the tank; 
   several VOCs exceeded NYSDEC clean up levels, but diminished with depth. 
   The release was reported to environmental regulatory agencies as required 
   under Environmental Laws. The storage tank was removed and replaced by a 
   new storage tank.

3. The studio site also includes a 1,000 gallon diesel fuel storage tank for 
   emergency power generation. This tank has recently been registered under the 
   Petroleum Bulk Storage regulations and as required under Environmental Laws. 
   Leak detection testing to determine the integrity of the tank was done in 
   June, 1995. The tank met applicable standards and no soil contamination 
   associated with it has been detected. The storage tank was removed and 
   replaced by a new storage tank.

4. The studio building contains some suspect asbestos-containing material.

WLAJ - Lansing, Michigan

1. Two pad-mounted transformers are located on-site, and are owned by the 
   Board of Water and Light. According to the Board, they do not contain PCB 
   fluids.

2. De minimis amounts of Hazardous Materials such as paint, cleaning 
   solutions, liquid paper, etc., that are customarily used at a television 
   broadcasting station have been used on the properties.
