Grantor's Covenants In addition to the other covenants and ------------------- agreements set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Grantor covenants and agrees as follows: (a) The Grantor will pay, prior to delinquency, all taxes, charges, Liens and assessments against the Collateral owned by it, except those with respect to which the amount or validity is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided on the books of the Grantor.

Agent's Rights Regarding Collateral At any time and from time to ----------------------------------- time, the Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Party) may, to the extent necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but the Agent shall not be obligated to: (a) (whether or not a Default has occurred) itself or through its representatives, at its own expense, upon reasonable notice and at such reasonable times during usual business hours, visit and inspect the Grantor's properties and examine and make abstracts from any of its books and records at any reasonable time and as often as may reasonably be desired and discuss the business, operations, properties and financial and other condition of the Grantor and its Subsidiaries with officers and employees of the Grantor and its Subsidiaries and with its Accountants or (b) if a Default has occurred and is continuing, at the expense of the Grantor, perform any obligation of the Grantor under this Agreement. At any time and from time to time, at the expense of the Grantor, the Agent (for the benefit of the Secured Party) may, to the extent necessary or desirable to protect the security hereunder, but the Agent shall not be obligated to: (i) notify obligors on the Collateral that the Collateral has been assigned as security to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Party; (ii) at any time and from time to time request from obligors on the Collateral, in the name of the Grantor or in the name of the Secured Party, information concerning the Collateral and the amounts owing thereon; and (iii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, direct -15- obligors under the contracts included in the Collateral to which the Grantor is party to direct their performance to the Agent or the Lenders. The Grantor shall keep proper books and records and accounts in which full, true and correct entries in conformity with GAAP and all Requirements of Law shall be made of all material dealings and transactions pertaining to the Collateral. The Agent shall at all reasonable times on reasonable notice have full access to and the right to audit any and all of the Grantor's books and records pertaining to the Collateral, and to confirm and verify the value of the Collateral. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any duty or obligation whatsoever to take any action to preserve any rights of or against any prior or other parties in connection with the Collateral, to exercise any voting rights or managerial rights with respect to any Collateral or to make or give any presentments for payment, demands for performance, notices of non-performance, protests, notices of protest, notices of dishonor or notices of any other nature whatsoever in connection with the Collateral or the Obligations. Neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be under any duty or obligation whatsoever to take any action to protect or preserve the Collateral or any rights of the Grantor therein, or to make collections or enforce payment thereon, or to participate in any foreclosure or other proceeding in connection therewith. Nothing contained herein or in any Consent shall constitute an assumption by the Lenders of the Grantor's obligations under the contracts assigned hereunder unless the Agent shall have given written notice to the counterparty to such assigned contract of the Lenders' intention to assume such contract. The Grantor shall continue to be liable for performance of its obligations under such contracts. Nothing contained herein shall be construed to make the Agent or any Lender liable as a member of any Pledged Entity or partner in any partnership with respect to which the Grantor has pledged its interest as a Pledged Limited Liability Company Interest or a Pledged Partnership Interest, and the Agent and the Lenders by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise (except as referred to in the following sentence) shall not have any of the duties, obligations or liabilities of a member of any Pledged Entity or partner in such partnership. The parties hereto expressly agree that, unless the Agent shall become the absolute owner of a Pledged Limited Liability Company Interest or Pledged Partnership Interest pursuant hereto, this Agreement shall not be construed as creating a partnership or joint venture among the Agent, any Lender and/or the Grantor. Except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, the Agent, by accepting this Agreement, did not intend to become a member of any Pledged Entity or partner in any partnership with respect to which the Grantor has pledged its interest as a Pledged Limited Liability Company Interest or a Pledged Partnership Interest, or otherwise be deemed to be a co-venturer with respect to the Grantor or any Pledged Entity or partner in any such partnership, either before or after an Event of Default shall have occurred. 14. Collections on the Collateral Except as provided to the contrary in ----------------------------- the Loan Agreement, the Grantor shall have the right to use and to continue to make collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of all of the Collateral in the ordinary course of business so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, at the option of the Agent, the Grantor's right to make collections on and receive dividends and other proceeds of the Collateral and to use or dispose of such collections and proceeds shall terminate, and any and all dividends, proceeds and collections, including all partial or total prepayments, then held or thereafter received on or on account of the Collateral will be held or received by the Grantor in trust for the Secured Party and immediately delivered in kind to the Agent (duly endorsed to the Agent, if required), to be -16- applied to the Obligations or held as Collateral, as the Agent shall elect. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Agent shall have the right at all times to receive, receipt for, endorse, assign, deposit and deliver, in the name of the Agent or the Lenders or in the name of the Grantor, any and all checks, notes, drafts and other instruments for the payment of money constituting proceeds of or otherwise relating to the Collateral; and the Grantor hereby authorizes the Agent to affix, by facsimile signature or otherwise, the general or special endorsement of the Grantor, in such manner as the Agent shall deem advisable, to any such instrument in the event the same has been delivered to or obtained by the Agent without appropriate endorsement, and the Agent and any collecting bank are hereby authorized to consider such endorsement to be a sufficient, valid and effective endorsement by the Grantor, to the same extent as though it were manually executed by the duly authorized representative of the Grantor, regardless of by whom or under what circumstances or by what authority such endorsement actually is affixed, without duty of inquiry or responsibility as to such matters, and the Grantor hereby expressly waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest or dishonor and all other notices of every kind and nature with respect to any such instrument. 15. Possession of Collateral by Agent All the Collateral now, heretofore --------------------------------- or hereafter delivered to the Agent shall be held by the Agent in its possession, custody and control. Any or all of the Collateral delivered to the Agent constituting cash or cash equivalents shall, prior to the occurrence of any Event of Default, be held in an interest-bearing account with one or more of the Lenders, and shall be, upon request of the Grantor, invested in investments permitted by Section 6.7(c) of the Loan Agreement. Nothing herein shall obligate the Agent to obtain any particular return thereon. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, whenever any of the Collateral is in the Agent's possession, custody or control, the Agent may use, operate and consume the Collateral, whether for the purpose of preserving and/or protecting the Collateral, or for the purpose of performing any of the Grantor's obligations with respect thereto, or otherwise, and, subject to the terms of Section 9.7 of the Loan Agreement, any or all of the Collateral delivered to the Agent constituting cash or cash equivalents shall be applied by the Agent to payment of the Obligations to the extent permitted by the terms of the Loan Agreement or otherwise held as Collateral as the Agent shall elect. The Agent may at any time deliver or redeliver the Collateral or any part thereof to the Grantor, and the receipt of any of the same by the Grantor shall be complete and full acquittance for the Collateral so delivered, and the Agent thereafter shall be discharged from any liability or responsibility arising after such delivery to the Grantor. So long as the Agent exercises reasonable care with respect to any Collateral in its possession, custody or control, neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall have any liability for any loss of or damage to any Collateral, and in no event shall the Agent or the Lenders have liability for any diminution in value of Collateral occasioned by economic or market conditions or events, absent the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or any of the Lenders. The Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care within the meaning of the preceding sentence if the Collateral in the possession, custody or control of the Agent is accorded treatment substantially equal to that which the Agent accords similar property for its own account, it being understood that neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall have any responsibility for (a) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Collateral, whether or not the Agent or any Lender has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, or (b) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral. -17- 16. Remedies -------- (a) Rights Upon Event of Default. Upon the occurrence and during the ---------------------------- continuance of an Event of Default, the Grantor shall be in default hereunder and the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Party shall have, in any jurisdiction where enforcement is sought, in addition to all other rights and remedies that the Agent on behalf of the Secured Party may have under this Agreement and under applicable laws or in equity, all rights and remedies of a secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code as enacted in any such jurisdiction in effect at that time, and in addition the following rights and remedies, all of which may be exercised with or without further notice to the Grantor except such notice as may be specifically required by applicable law: (a) to foreclose the Liens and security interests created hereunder or under any other Loan Document by any available judicial procedure or without judicial process; (b) to enter any premises where any Collateral may be located for the purpose of securing, protecting, inventorying, appraising, inspecting, repairing, preserving, storing, preparing, processing, taking possession of or removing the same; (c) to sell, assign, lease or otherwise dispose of any Collateral or any part thereof, either at public or private sale or at any broker's board, in lot or in bulk, for cash, on credit or otherwise, with or without representations or warranties and upon such terms as shall be commercially reasonable; (d) to notify obligors on the Collateral that the Collateral has been assigned to the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Party and that all payments thereon, or performance with respect thereto, are to be made directly and exclusively to the Agent for the account of the Secured Party; (e) to collect by legal proceedings or otherwise all dividends, distributions, interest, principal or other sums now or hereafter payable upon or on account of the Collateral; (f) to enter into any extension, reorganization, disposition, merger or consolidation agreement, or any other agreement relating to or affecting the Collateral, and in connection therewith the Agent may deposit or surrender control of the Collateral and/or accept other property in exchange for the Collateral as the Agent reasonably deems appropriate and is commercially reasonable; (g) to settle, compromise or release, on terms acceptable to the Agent, in whole or in part, any amounts owing on the Collateral and/or any disputes with respect thereto; (h) to extend the time of payment, make allowances and adjustments and issue credits in connection with the Collateral in the name of the Agent for the benefit of the Secured Party or in the name of the Grantor; (i) to enforce payment and prosecute any action or proceeding with respect to any or all of the Collateral and take or bring, in the name of the Secured Party or in the name of the Grantor, any and all steps, actions, suits or proceedings deemed necessary or reasonably desirable by the Agent to effect collection of or to realize upon the Collateral, including any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure thereof or thereon, and the Grantor specifically consents to any nonjudicial foreclosure of any or all of the Collateral or any other action taken by the Lenders which may release any obligor from personal liability on any of the Collateral, and the Grantor waives (such waiver not to affect the Agent's agreement to give notice of sale in certain circumstances pursuant to Section 16(d)), to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right to receive notice of any public or private judicial or nonjudicial sale or foreclosure of any security or any of the Collateral, and any money or other property received by the Agent in exchange for or on account of the Collateral, whether representing collections or proceeds of Collateral, and whether resulting from voluntary payments or foreclosure proceedings or other legal action taken by the Agent or the Grantor may be applied by the Agent, without notice to the Grantor, to the Obligations in such order and manner as the Agent in its sole discretion shall determine; (j) to insure, protect and preserve the Collateral; (k) to exercise all rights, remedies, powers or privileges provided under any of the Loan Documents; and (l) to remove, from any -18- premises where the same may be located, the Collateral and any and all documents, instruments, files and records, and any receptacles and cabinets containing the same, relating to the Collateral, and the Agent may, at the cost and expense of the Grantor, use such of its supplies, equipment, facilities and space at its places of business as may be necessary or appropriate to properly administer, process, store, control, prepare for sale or disposition and/or sell or dispose of the Collateral or to properly administer and control the handling of collections and realizations thereon, and the Agent shall be deemed to have a rent-free tenancy of any premises of the Grantor for such purposes and for such periods of time as reasonably required by the Agent. The Grantor will, at the Agent's request, assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Agent at places which the Agent may designate, whether at the premises of the Grantor or elsewhere, and will make available to the Agent, free of cost, all premises, equipment and facilities of the Grantor for the purpose of the Agent's taking possession of the Collateral or storing the same or removing or putting the Collateral in salable form or selling or disposing of the same. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to give the Agent or the Lenders or any purchaser of the Collateral the right to operate any of the Stations without the prior consent of the FCC, to the extent required by law or the terms of any Media License. (b) Possession by Agent. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance ------------------- of an Event of Default, the Agent also shall have the right, without notice or demand (other than any notice required by Section 7 of the Loan Agreement), either in person, by agent or by a receiver to be appointed by a court in accordance with the provisions of applicable law (and the Grantor hereby expressly consents, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default to the appointment of such a receiver), and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, without regard to the adequacy of any security for the Obligations, to take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof and to collect and receive the rents, issues, profits, income and proceeds thereof. The taking possession of the Collateral by the Agent shall not cure or waive any Event of Default or notice thereof or invalidate any act done pursuant to such notice. The rights, remedies and powers of any receiver appointed by a court shall be as ordered by said court. (c) Sale of Collateral. Any public or private sale or other disposition ------------------ of the Collateral may be held at any office of the Agent, or at the Grantor's place of business, or at any other place permitted by applicable law, and without the necessity of the Collateral's being within the view of prospective purchasers. The Agent may direct the order and manner of sale of the Collateral, or portions thereof, as it in its sole and absolute discretion may determine provided such sale is commercially reasonable, and the Grantor expressly waives, to the extent permitted by applicable law, any right to direct the order and manner of sale of any Collateral. The Agent or any Person acting on the Agent's behalf may bid and purchase at any such sale or other disposition. In addition to the other rights of the Agent and the Lenders hereunder, the Grantor hereby grants to the Agent and the Lenders a license or other right to use, without charge, the Grantor's labels, copyrights, patents, rights of use of any name, trade names, trademarks and advertising matter, or any property of a similar nature, including, without limitation, the Copyrights, the Patents and the Marks in advertising for sale and selling any Collateral. (d) Notice of Sale. Unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to -------------- decline speedily in value or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market, the Agent will give the Grantor -19- reasonable notice of the time and place of any public sale thereof or of the time on or after which any private sale thereof is to be made. The requirement of reasonable notice conclusively shall be met if such notice is mailed, certified mail, postage prepaid, to the Grantor at its address set forth on the signature page hereto or delivered or otherwise sent to the Grantor, at least five (5) Business Days before the date of the sale. The Grantor expressly waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any right to receive notice of any public or private sale of any Collateral or other security for the Obligations except as expressly provided for in this paragraph. The Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of the Collateral if it shall determine not to do so regardless of the fact that notice of sale of the Collateral may have been given. The Agent may, without notice or publication, except as required by applicable law, adjourn the sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed for sale, and such sale may, without further notice (except as required by applicable law), be made at the time and place to which the same was so adjourned. (e) Private Sales. With respect to any Collateral consisting of ------------- securities, partnership interests, membership interests, joint venture interests or the like, and whether or not any of such Collateral has been effectively registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or other applicable laws, the Agent may, in its sole and absolute discretion, sell all or any part of such Collateral at private sale in such manner and under such circumstances as the Agent may deem necessary or advisable in order that the sale may be lawfully conducted in a commercially reasonable manner. Without limiting the foregoing, the Agent may (i) approach and negotiate with a limited number of potential purchasers, and (ii) restrict the prospective bidders or purchasers to persons who will represent and agree that they are purchasing such Collateral for their own account for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. In the event that any such Collateral is sold at private sale, the Grantor agrees to the extent permitted by applicable law that if such Collateral is sold for a price which is commercially reasonable, then (A) the Grantor shall not be entitled to a credit against the Obligations in an amount in excess of the purchase price, and (B) the Lenders shall not incur any liability or responsibility to the Grantor in connection therewith, notwithstanding the possibility that a substantially higher price might have been realized at a public sale. The Grantor recognizes that a ready market may not exist for such Collateral if it is not regularly traded on a recognized securities exchange, and that a sale by the Agent of any such Collateral for an amount less than a pro rata share of the fair market value of the issuer's assets minus liabilities may be commercially reasonable in view of the difficulties that may be encountered in attempting to sell a large amount of such Collateral or Collateral that is privately traded. (f) Title of Purchasers. Upon consummation of any sale of Collateral ------------------- hereunder, the Agent on behalf of the Secured Party shall have the right to assign, transfer and deliver to the purchaser or purchasers thereof the Collateral so sold. Each such purchaser at any such sale shall hold the Collateral so sold absolutely free from any claim or right upon the part of the Grantor or any other Person claiming through the Grantor, and the Grantor hereby waives (to the extent permitted by applicable laws) all rights of redemption, stay and appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of law or statute now existing or hereafter enacted. If the sale of all or any part of the Collateral is made on credit or for future delivery, the Agent shall not be required to apply any portion of the sale price to the Obligations until such amount actually is received by the Agent, and any Collateral so sold may be retained by the Agent until the sale price is paid in full by the purchaser or purchasers thereof. The Secured -20- Party shall not incur any liability in case any such purchaser or purchasers shall fail to pay for the Collateral so sold, and, in case of any such failure, the Collateral may be sold again. (g) Disposition of Proceeds of Sale. The proceeds resulting from the ------------------------------- collection, liquidation, sale or other disposition of the Collateral shall be applied, first, to the reasonable costs and expenses (including reasonable ----- attorneys' fees) of retaking, holding, storing, processing and preparing for sale, selling, collecting and liquidating the Collateral, and the like; second, ------ to the satisfaction of all Obligations; and third, any surplus remaining after ----- the satisfaction of all Obligations, provided no Commitment exists, to be paid over to the Grantor or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. (h) Certain Waivers. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the --------------- Grantor waives all claims, damages and demands against the Agent and the Lenders arising out of the repossession, retention or sale of the Collateral, or any part or parts thereof, except to the extent any such claims, damages and awards arise out of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Agent or the Lenders. (i) Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies provided under this ------------------- Agreement are cumulative and may be exercised singly or concurrently, and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided by law or equity. (j) Compliance with Communications Act. ---------------------------------- (i) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any foreclosure on, sale, transfer or other disposition of, or the exercise of any right to vote or consent with respect to, any of the Collateral as provided herein or any other action taken or proposed to be taken by the Agent hereunder which would affect the operational, voting or other control of any entity holding a Media License shall be made in accordance with the Communications Act and the terms of each Media License, including, to the extent applicable under the Communications Act in effect at the time of a Default, any requirement that there be a public or private sale. (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, or in the Loan Agreement or the other Loan Documents or in any other related instrument, the Agent shall not, without first obtaining any consent or approval of the FCC, take any action pursuant to this Agreement which would constitute or result in any change of control of a Subsidiary holding a Media License if any such change in control would require, under then existing law, the prior approval of the FCC. (iii) If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Grantor shall take any action which the Agent may reasonably request in the exercise of its rights and remedies under this Agreement in order to transfer and assign to the Agent or to one or more third parties as the Agent may designate, or to a combination of the foregoing, the Collateral for the purposes of a public or private sale. To enforce the provisions of this Section 16, the Agent is empowered to request, and the Grantor agrees to authorize, the appointment of a receiver or trustee from any court of competent jurisdiction. Such receiver or trustee shall be instructed to seek from the FCC (and any other Governmental -21- Authority, if required) any necessary prior consent to an involuntary transfer of control or assignment of any Media License or of any entity whose stock, partnership interests or other securities are subject to this Agreement, for the purpose of seeking a bona fide purchaser to whom such Media License or control of such entity ultimately will be transferred or assigned in connection with a public or private sale. The Grantor hereby agrees to authorize (including the Grantor's execution of any necessary or appropriate applications or other instruments) such an involuntary transfer of control or assignment upon the reasonable request of the receiver or trustee so appointed; and, if the Grantor's approval is required by the court and the Grantor shall refuse to authorize such transfer or assignment, then, to the extent permitted by the Communications Act in effect at such time and provided that the Grantor has been given 5 Business Days' prior written notice telecopied to its telecopier number set forth on the signature page hereof, and the Grantor has not responded by executing any such applications or other instruments, the clerk of the court may execute in the place of the Grantor any application or other instrument necessary or appropriate for the obtaining of such consent. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Grantor shall further use its best efforts to assist in obtaining the approval of the FCC (and that required by any other Governmental Authority) for any action or transaction contemplated by this Agreement, including without limitation, the preparation, execution and filing with the FCC of the assignor's or transferor's portion of any application or applications for consent to the assignment of any Media License or transfer of control of any entity holding or controlling any Media License as may be necessary or appropriate under the Communications Act for approval of the transfer or assignment of any portion of the Collateral or any Media License. The Grantor further agrees that, because of the unique nature of its undertaking in this Section 16, the same may be specifically enforced, and it hereby waives, and agrees to waive, any claim or defense that the Agent or the Lenders would have an adequate remedy at law for the breach of this undertaking and any requirement for the posting of bond or other security.
