REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLER AND CTI. As a material ------------------------------------------------ inducement to Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, Seller and CTI jointly and severally represent and warrant to Purchaser as follows: 4.1 Organization and Good Standing. CTI is a corporation duly ------------------------------ organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of Louisiana, with full corporate power and authority to conduct its business as it is now being conducted, to own or use the properties and assets that it purports to own or use, and to perform all its obligations under all Ground Leases, the Easements/Servitudes and the Tenant Leases. The ownership or use of the properties owned or used by CTI, or the nature of the activities conducted by CTI, does not require CTI to be qualified to do business as a foreign corporation in any jurisdiction. 4.2 Duly Authorized. Each of CTI and Seller have the absolute and --------------- unrestricted right, power, authority (corporate or otherwise), and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement and the Seller's Closing Documents to which each of them is a party and to perform their obligations under this Agreement and the Seller's Closing Documents to which each of them is a party. The execution and delivery of this Agreement and each of the Seller's Closing Documents, as well as the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions, have been approved by the Board of Directors and shareholders of CTI and no other corporate proceedings on the part of CTI (including without limitation obtaining approval of CTI's shareholders) shall be necessary or required to authorize this Agreement, each of the Seller's Closing Documents and the Contemplated Transactions. 4.3 No Subsidiaries. CTI does not own any Subsidiaries. --------------- 4.4 Enforceability. This Agreement constitutes the legal, valid, and -------------- binding obligation of each of Seller and CTI, enforceable against each of Seller and CTI in accordance with its terms. Upon the execution and delivery by Seller and CTI of each of the Seller's Closing Documents to which it is a party, each of the Seller's Closing Documents will constitute the legal, valid, and binding obligations of Seller or CTI, as the case may be, enforceable against Seller and CTI in accordance with its respective terms. 4.5 No Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement ------------ nor the consummation or performance of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Seller's Closing Documents, or any agreement, instrument or document contemplated thereby, will, directly or indirectly (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation of any provision of the Organizational Documents of CTI, or any resolution adopted by the board of directors or the shareholders of CTI, cause Purchaser or CTI to become subject to, or to become liable for the payment of, any Tax, contravene, conflict with, or result in a violation or breach of any provision of, or give any Person the right to declare a default or exercise any remedy under, any Legal Requirement or any Contract to which CTI or Seller is a party or any 2 of the assets owned or used by CTI may be subject, or result in the imposition or creation of any encumbrance upon or with respect to any of the assets owned or used by CTI. 4.6 No Consents. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, ----------- Seller and CTI shall not be required to give any notice to or obtain any consent or approval from any Person in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation or performance of any of the Contemplated Transactions. 4.7 Capitalization. The correct and complete authorized capital stock -------------- of CTI consists of 1,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share, of which 100 shares are issued and outstanding and constitute the Shares, and of which 100 shares are "treasury shares." There are no Contracts relating to the issuance, delivery, registration, sale, or transfer of any equity securities or other securities of CTI. 4.8 Title to and Issuance of Shares. Seller is and will be on the ------------------------------- Closing Date the record and beneficial owner and holder of the Shares, free and clear of all encumbrances. None of the Shares are subject to pre-emptive or similar rights, either pursuant to any Organizational Document or any Contract, and no Person has any pre-emptive rights or similar rights to purchase or receive any equity securities or other securities of CTI. 4.9 Financial Statements. Seller has delivered to Purchaser a compiled -------------------- balance sheet of CTI at and as of July 31, 1997 (the "Balance Sheet"), and the related compiled statements of income, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows for the fiscal year then ended, including the notes thereto (collectively, the "Financial Statements"). For purposes of this Agreement, the terms "Balance Sheet" and "Financial Statements" shall also include the balance sheets and financial statements, as the case may be, to be provided to Purchaser pursuant to Section 6.1.11. The Financial Statements fairly present the financial condition and the results of operations, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows of CTI at the respective dates of and for the periods referred to in such Financial Statements, all in accordance with GAAP. Each Balance Sheet reflects the consistent application of such accounting principles throughout the periods involved. No financial statements of any Person other than CTI are required by GAAP to be included in the Financial Statements. 4.10 Books and Records. The books of account, minute books, stock ----------------- record books, and other records of CTI, all of which have been made available to Purchaser, are true, complete and correct and have been maintained in accordance with sound business practices.

None of CTI's United States federal and state income Tax Returns have been audited by the IRS or relevant state tax authorities. The charges, accruals, and reserves with respect to Taxes on the respective books of CTI are adequate (determined in accordance with GAAP) and are at least equal to CTI's liability for Taxes. There exists no proposed tax assessment against CTI except as disclosed in the Financial Statements or in the Disclosure Letter. No consent to the application of Section 341(f)(2) of the Code has been filed with respect to any property or assets held, acquired, or to be acquired by CTI.

If the indemnifying party assumes the defense of a Proceeding, (i) it will be conclusively established for purposes of this Agreement that the claims made in that Proceeding are within the scope of and subject to indemnification; (ii) no compromise or settlement of such claims may be effected by the indemnifying party without the indemnified party's consent unless (A) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirements or any violation of the rights of any Person and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the indemnified party, and (B) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the indemnifying party; and (iii) the indemnified party will have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such claims effected without its consent. If notice is given to an indemnifying party of the commencement of any Proceeding and the indemnifying party does not, within ten days after the indemnified party's notice is given, give notice to the indemnified party of its election to assume the defense of such Proceeding, the indemnifying party will be bound by any determination made in such Proceeding or any compromise or settlement effected by the indemnified party. 12.4.3 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an indemnified party determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Proceeding may adversely affect it or its affiliates other than as a result of monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the indemnified party may, by notice to the indemnifying party, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise, or settle such Proceeding, but the 20 indemnifying party will not be bound by any determination of a Proceeding so defended or any compromise or settlement effected without its consent (which may not be unreasonably withheld). 13. DEFAULT. ------- 13.1 Purchaser's Default. If Purchaser breaches its obligations under ------------------- this Agreement (except for Purchaser's failure to consummate the Contemplated Transactions because any of the conditions in Section 7 were not fulfilled as of the Closing), the Deposit will, at Seller's option, be paid to Seller, or, in the alternative, Seller will have the right of specific performance, in either instance without waiving Seller's right to sue Purchaser for damages, or a combination of specific performance and damages.

No remedy conferred upon Purchaser is intended to be exclusive of any other remedy, and each remedy will be cumulative and in addition to every other remedy available under this Agreement, at law or in equity. No single or partial exercise any remedy will preclude any other or further exercise thereof. This provision shall be in addition to Purchaser's remedies under Section 12 hereof. 14. BROKERS.

EXHIBIT "7.15" -------------- Opinion of Seller's and CTI's Counsel _______________, 1998 SBA Towers Louisiana, Inc. One Town Center Road, 3rd Floor Boca Raton, Florida 33486 Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as legal counsel to Leroy Faith ("Seller"), Ethel Faith ("Faith"), and Caddo Tower, Inc., a Louisiana corporation ("CTI"), in connection with the purchase by SBA Towers Louisiana, Inc., a Florida corporation ("SBA"), of all of the issued and outstanding capital stock of CTI, pursuant to that certain Stock Purchase Agreement, dated as of ____________, 1998 (the "Stock Purchase Agreement"), by and among CTI, SBA, Seller, and, as to Sections 2, 3 and 27 of the Stock Purchase Agreement, Faith. This opinion letter (this "Opinion Letter") is being delivered pursuant to Section 7.15 of the Stock Purchase Agreement. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this Opinion Letter have the definitions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. In rendering the opinions set forth herein, we have examined and relied on originals or copies of the following: (i) the Stock Purchase Agreement; (ii) the Certificate of Incorporation of CTI as currently in effect, the Bylaws of CTI and certain resolutions of the Board of Directors and shareholders of CTI, each certified by CTI as being true and correct and in effect on the date hereof; (iii) such records of CTI and such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of CTI and others, and such other documents, certificates and records as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein; and (iv) a Certificate of Good Standing dated as of ____________, 1998 issued by the Secretary of State of the State of Louisiana with respect to CTI. Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that: 1. CTI is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Louisiana and has the power and lawful authority to own its properties and to transact the business in which it is currently engaged. CTI is duly qualified to transact business in all other jurisdictions in which it is required to be so qualified. 2. Seller, Faith and CTI have full power to enter into the Stock Purchase Agreement and to carry out their obligations thereunder. The execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby have been duly and validly authorized by CTI's Board of Directors and shareholders. No other acts or proceedings on the part of CTI will be necessary to authorize execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby. 3. The execution and delivery of the Stock Purchase Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, the performance by Seller, Faith and CTI of each of their obligations under the Stock Purchase Agreement, and the exercise of SBA of the rights created by each of the Seller's Closing Documents do not and will not (i) violate the Articles of Incorporation or bylaws of CTI; (ii) constitute a breach of or a default under any Contract, agreement or instrument to which CTI is a party or by which its assets are bound, or result in the creation of a mortgage, lien, security interest or other encumbrance upon the assets of CTI; or (iii) violate a judgment, decree or order of any Governmental Authority or court or administrative tribunal, which judgment, decree or order is binding on Seller, Faith or CTI. 4. No permits, approvals, consents, satisfaction of waiting periods, or waivers thereof of any Governmental Authority, or of any other Person whatsoever, are necessary to allow the Seller, Faith and CTI to consummate the transactions contemplated in the Stock Purchase Agreement in compliance with, and not in breach of, (i) all applicable Legal Requirements, and (ii) the provisions of any Contract binding upon any Seller, Faith or CTI. 5. No actions, suits or proceedings are pending or overtly threatened in writing against Seller, Faith or CTI that challenge the validity of the Seller's Closing Documents or any action to be taken by Seller, Faith or CTI pursuant to the Seller's Closing Documents. 6. The Stock Purchase Agreement has been executed and delivered by Seller, Faith (by means of the Joinder to the Stock Purchase Agreement) and CTI, and is a valid and binding obligation of Seller, Faith (to the extent so joined) and CTI, enforceable against each of them under the law of Louisiana and the federal law of the United States. 7. The Shares have been duly and validly issued, fully paid and are non-assessable. 8. CTI does not, either directly or indirectly, beneficially or of record, own any securities or other interests in any other Person, which, by nature of such ownership, would give CTI the power to elect a majority of that Person's board of directors or other similar governing body or otherwise give CTI the power to direct the business and policies of that Person. 9. CTI's authorized capitalization consists of 1,000 shares of common stock, no par value per share, of which 100 shares are outstanding and constitute the Shares, and 100 shares are "treasury stock," as such term is defined under Louisiana corporate law. 10. There are no contracts or other agreements or documents, pursuant to which CTI may be required to authorize or issue additional securities. 11. Upon delivery of the Shares to SBA and payment in accordance with the Stock Purchase Agreement, SBA will acquire the ownership rights to the Shares free of all liens, encumbrances, security interests or other adverse claims. 12. There are no pre-emptive rights or other similar rights, whether under any of the Organizational Documents, any Legal Requirement, or pursuant to any Contract, and no Person has any pre-emptive rights or similar rights to purchase or receive any equity securities or other securities of CTI. Our opinions are limited to the specific issues addressed and are limited in all respects to laws and facts existing on the date hereof. By rendering this Opinion Letter, we do not undertake to advise you of any changes in such laws or facts which may occur or come to our attention after the date hereof. Subject to the foregoing, this Opinion Letter may be relied upon by you only in connection with the Seller's Closing Documents and the transactions contemplated therein, and may not be used or relied upon by you or any other person for any purpose whatsoever, without the prior written consent of this Firm.
