Acquisition of WKHK-FM, WBZU-FM,
WLEE-FM & WVGO-FM of Richmond, Virginia
Gentlemen:
This letter is intended to set forth basic substantive terms under which
SFX Broadcasting, Inc., or one of its subsidiaries, provided the subsidiary is
guaranteed by SFX Broadcasting, Inc., (together, "SFX") has agreed to acquire
interests in the partnerships owning WKHK-FM and WBZU-FM, and to finance the
acquisition of WLEE-FM and WVGO-FM of Richmond, Virginia (together with
WKHK-FM and WBZU-FM, the "Stations"). This letter represents a binding letter
of intent with no financing contingency (the "Letter") and the parties to this
Letter agree to expeditiously proceed with the good faith negotiation and
execution of the agreements necessary to complete the transaction contemplated
hereby (the "Definitive Agreements").
We understand that ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇ ("▇▇▇") and ABS Communications,
Inc., a Virginia corporation (the "Corporation"), formed ABS Communications,
L.L.C., a Virginia limited liability company (the "L.C.") on April 29, 1996.
These Members initially own 99% and 1%, respectively, in the L.C. On June 1,
1996, ▇▇▇ and the Corporation assigned to the L.C. their rights and
obligations under an Escrow Agreement and a Time Brokerage Agreement. and on
July 15, 1996, ▇▇▇ and the Corporation assigned to the L.C. their rights and
obligations under an Asset Purchase Agreement, with Benchmark Communications
Radio Limited Partnership (the Escrow Agreement, the Time Brokerage Agreement
and the Asset Purchase Agreement hereinafter referred to as the "Benchmark
Contracts") with respect to the acquisition of WLEE-FM and WVGO-FM (the
"Benchmark Stations"). SFX acknowledges that it has received copies of the
Benchmark Contracts.
ABS Communications, Inc.
August 9, 1996

▇▇▇ and the Corporation also currently own partnership interests in two
Virginia limited partnerships: ABS Richmond Part Partners, L.P. ("RICH-I") and
ABS Richmond Partners II, L.P. ("RICH-II"). The other partners in these
partnerships are EBF, Inc. and EBF Partners (together with ▇▇▇ and the
Corporation collectively referred to as the "Current Partners").
The acquisition of the Stations (the "Acquisition") will be effected by
(i) SFX financing the L.C.'s acquisition of the Benchmark Stations under the
Benchmark Contracts and (ii) ▇▇▇ and the Corporation contributing all or part
of their interests in RICH-I and RICH-II to the L.C., while SFX will
contribute WMXB-FM and cash necessary to capitalize the L.C. as described
below. Thus, RICH-I and RICH-II will dissolve, terminate, and liquidate into
the L.C.
First, SFX will make a loan to the L.C. in an amount sufficient to allow
the L.C. to complete the acquisition of the Benchmark Stations under the terms
of the Benchmark Contracts. Upon completion of the acquisition of the
Benchmark Stations, SFX will file an application with the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") seeking permission to (i) convert its loan
to the L.C. into equity in the L.C. and (ii) acquire the partnership interests
in RICH-I and RICH-II through the L.C. Once this application has been granted,
then SFX will: (i) convert its loan to the L.C. into equity in the L.C., (ii)
cause the L.C. to acquire the partnership interests in RICH-I and RICH-II, and
(iii) contribute WMXB-FM to the L.C.
Following are the substantive terms of SFX's proposed acquisitions:
1. Agreement. Unless extended by mutual agreement, within 30 days of the
date hereof the parties will negotiate in good faith the execution and
delivery of the Definitive Agreements, drafts of which shall be prepared by
SFX's counsel. Failure to execute within this time will not effect the binding
nature of this Letter. Without limiting the foregoing, SFX agrees that the
Definitive Agreements shall include:
A. Acquisitions and Form of Payment
SFX agrees to finance the L.C.'s acquisition of the Benchmark
Stations for $14,500,000, as specified in the Benchmark Contracts. While
this financing is outstanding, SFX will have a first priority security
interest in all of the assets of the L.C. The successful acquisition of
the Benchmark Stations is a condition precedent to SFX's acquisition of
partnership interests in RICH-I and RICH-II.
SFX also agrees that, upon signing of the Definitive
Agreements, it will finance the L.C.'s assumption or completion, as the
case may be, of all of ▇▇▇'s and the Corporation's rights and
obligations with respect to the acquisition of the Benchmark Stations.
These obligations will include, but not be limited to:
ABS Communications, Inc.
August 9, 1996
Page 3
o repaying ▇▇▇'s good faith deposit, not to exceed $1,000,000, which
is being held in escrow (which is in addition to the $2,000,000
escrow for the RICH-I and RICH-II transaction);
o repaying the outstanding borrowings, net of the $1,000,000 good
faith deposit referred to above, under ▇▇▇'s bridge facility with
Signet Bank;
o reimbursing ▇▇▇ for all additional expenses directly related to
acquiring and operating the Benchmark Stations under the Time
Brokerage Agreement; and
o indemnifying ▇▇▇ with respect to his personal performance guarantees.
As of August 6, 1996, the outstanding balance under the Signet
bridge facility was $1,526,051. The bridge facility has been used to
fund the Benchmark escrow deposit ($1,000,000) and the differential
between cash receipts and working capital, payments to Benchmark under
the Time Brokerage Agreement ($48,732 per month) and transaction-related
expenses. ▇▇▇ will agree to represent that all borrowings under the
bridge facility are directly related to the Benchmark acquisition and
Time Brokerage Agreement and over-all Richmond transaction expenses.
Upon the successful acquisition of the Benchmark Stations by
the L.C., as described above, ▇▇▇ and the Corporation will contribute to
the L.C. the proportion of their interests in RICH-I and RICH-II that
have an equity value of $1,700,000. The cash that SFX will contribute to
the L.C. along with the available loan proceeds referred to below in
this paragraph will be sufficient to, and will be used for: (i) as
described in more detail in the next paragraph, the acquisition of the
remaining partnership interests in RICH-I and RICH-II for $21,300,000
plus the Net Working Capital (the acquisition price of $23,000,000 plus
the Net Working Capital, less ▇▇▇ and the Corporation's contribution of
their equity interest valued at $1,700,000); and (ii) any projected cash
needs for operation of the Stations. Net Working Capital shall be the
excess, if any, of the sum of cash and cash equivalents, accounts
receivable, and any liquid assets of RICH-I and RICH-II over the current
accounts payable of RICH-I and RICH-II. In addition, the L.C. shall only
be responsible for the recorded liabilities of RICH-I and RICH-II, not
to exceed $21,300,000.
The amount paid to the remaining partners in RICH-I and ▇▇▇▇
▇▇ (EBF, Inc., EBF Partners, and perhaps, ▇▇▇) shall equal the excess of
(A) $21,300,000 plus Net Working Capital over (B) the recorded
liabilities, excluding current accounts payable, of RICH-I and RICH-II
(which the L.C. is assuming and extinguishing at closing). ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇
has interests remaining to be purchased after his and the Corporation's
contribution
ABS Communications, Inc.
August 9, 1996
Page 4
to the L.C. will depend upon whether the Current Partners agree that the
equity interest of ▇▇▇ and the Corporation exceeds $1,700,000. In either
event, the amount that the L.C. pays (and, thus, the required
contribution of SFX) to purchase the remaining interests will remain the
same. Therefore, the L.C. will acquire 100% of the partnership interests
in RICH-I and RICH-II for $23,000,000 plus Net Working Capital, which is
the sum of Ken's and the Corporation's $1,700,000 contributed interest
plus SFX's cash contribution of $21,300,000 plus Net Working Capital.
The resulting Membership Interests in profits, losses, and
distributions of the L.C. will be 96.00% for SFX and 4.00% aggregate for
▇▇▇ and the Corporation. ▇▇▇ and the Corporation will have an aggregate
capital account of $1,700,000 while SFX's capital account will be equal
to its cash contribution and the value of WMXB-FM ($15,000,000). ▇▇▇ and
the Corporation will retain ultimate liability for an amount of debt
equal to their negative capital accounts in RICH-I and RICH-II;
currently estimated at an aggregate of $2,900,000. The debt will be of a
sufficient amount and type to defer these negative capital accounts.
Other than amounts reasonably necessary for working capital, all Members
must agree for the L.C. to incur debt in excess of the estimated
$2,900,000 and any debt that the L.C. incurs must be on commercially
reasonable terms regarding interest rates, amortization schedule, and
otherwise. The L.C. will account for the disparity between the book
capital accounts of ▇▇▇ and the Corporation ($1,700,000 (credit)) and
their tax capital accounts (est. $2,900,000 (debit)) using the
traditional method provided in the income tax regulations unless all the
Members agree otherwise. The new Operating Agreement will require
minimum quarterly distributions to fund the Members' tax liability based
on their allocations from the L.C.
The L.C. will acquire 100% of the partnership interests in
RICH-I and RICH-II, the entities that own 100% of WKHK-FM and WBZU-FM.
These acquisitions will cause these partnerships to dissolve, terminate,
and liquidate into be L.C. for state law and federal and state income
tax purposes. Thus, the L.C. will succeed to all of the assets,
including Working Capital, and recorded liabilities of these
partnerships. In the Definitive Agreements, the partners will give
standard representations and warranties to a transaction of this nature
in the radio industry, and the cash investment of SFX will be the same
as an asset sale on the same basis.
Upon successful completion of the Acquisition and receipt of
FCC approval, the L.C. will have the right to require SFX to convert the
$14,500,000 financing for the acquisition of the Benchmark Stations into
equity in the L.C., however, such conversion will not cause SFX's
Membership Interest in the L.C. to be greater than 96.00%.

B. Management's Carried Interest
Five years from closing of the Acquisition, SFX agrees to cause the L.C.
to pay ▇▇▇, and at his election, other members of his management team
("Management"), a dollar amount equal to the greater of:
o the appreciation in value of 100,000 shares of SFX common stock
(adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends and any future issuance
of common stock), currently traded on the NASDAQ under the ticker
SFXBA, over the five-year period, or
o 20% of the value of the Stations plus the value of WMXB-FM
(collectively the "Richmond Station Group"), less an amount equal
to $78,189,501 reduced for disposition of any material assets
before such valuation (the "Hurdle"). The 20% carried interest will
in no way interfere with the L.C.'s right to acquire and dispose of
assets, so long as the Hurdle is adjusted to account for these
acquisitions and/or dispositions (the methodology for calculating
adjustments in the Hurdle will be agreed upon in the Definitive
Agreements).
SFX and ▇▇▇ agree that the Richmond Station Group will be valued by a
mutually acceptable third party, with said valuation based on comparable
valuations for other similar station groups. Balance sheet adjustments
will not be taken into account in determining the valuation.
SFX agrees that Management will be entitled to the full carried interest
under all circumstances, provided, however, that should ▇▇▇ terminate
his employment by his own choice:
o before the second anniversary of closing, Management would forfeit
the carried interest;
o on or after the second and before the third anniversary of closing,
Management would be entitled to 2/5 of the carried interest;
o on or after the third and before the fourth anniversary of closing,
Management would be entitled to 3/5 of the carried interest; or
o on or after the fourth and before the fifth anniversary of closing,
Management would be entitled to 4/5 of the carried interest.

If SFX terminates ▇▇▇'s employment for any reason, other than his being
convicted of a felony or gross misconduct/fraud, SFX agrees that
Management will be paid the carried interest. Under all circumstances,
payment will be made in cash within ninety days following the fifth
anniversary of closing, with interest accruing at a market rate after
ninety days, unless otherwise agreed upon on the fifth anniversary of
closing.
▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Ownership Interest
▇▇▇, the Corporation and SFX agree that, beginning on the fifth
anniversary of closing, ▇▇▇ and the Corporation will have the right to
put, and the L.C. will have the right to call, for cash, ▇▇▇'s and the
Corporation's 4.00% Membership Interest in the L.C. SFX, ▇▇▇ and the
Corporation agree that, upon exercise of either the put or call option,
the value of Ken's or the Corporation's respective Membership Interest
will equal the market value of the Richmond Station Group multiplied by
▇▇▇'s or the Corporation's respective ownership percentage.
▇▇▇, the Corporation and SFX agree that, upon exercise of either the put
or call option, the Richmond Station Group will be valued by a mutually
acceptable third party, with said valuation based on comparable
valuations for other similar station groups. For purposes of valuing
Ken's or the Corporation's respective Membership Interest, the valuation
of the Richmond Station Group will include Net Working Capital and will
be net of recorded liabilities, excluding current accounts payable.
Payment for ▇▇▇'s or the Corporation's respective Membership Interest
will be made in cash within ninety days, with interest accruing at a
market rate after ninety days, following the exercise of the put or call
option. For purposes of this Section C, ▇▇▇ and the Corporation will
put, or SFX will call, Ken's and the Corporation's entire respective
Membership Interest if the put or call option is exercised.
▇. ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇'▇ Employment Contract
SFX agrees that the L.C. will enter into a five-year employment contract
with ▇▇▇ to serve as the General Manager of the Richmond Station Group.
SFX agrees that the L.C. will pay ▇▇▇ a base annual salary of $200,000
and guaranteed minimum incentive compensation, linked to the performance
of the Richmond Station Group, of $50,000 per year. ▇▇▇ would
participate in SFX's option plan and receive standard benefits which
would include, but not be limited to, paid vacation, expense
reimbursement, use of company automobile, and health insurance.
SFX agrees, that if the L.C. terminates ▇▇▇'s employment before the end
of the fifth year for any reason, other than a felony conviction or
gross misconduct/fraud on his part, SFX
ABS Communications, Inc.
August 9, 1996
Page 7

benefits for 18 months. ▇▇▇ agrees, that if he terminates his employment
on his own accord, SFX would be released from its obligation to pay this
severance package.
As a condition of his employment contract, ▇▇▇ will enter into a
non-compete and non-solicitation agreement with SFX (the "Non-compete
Agreement") governing his activities within the Richmond, Virginia radio

similar to the transaction contemplated under the Letter. The
Non-compete Agreement shall expire at the earliest of (i) one year after
the termination of ▇▇▇'s employment with SFX by either party; (ii) six
years from ▇▇▇'s employment date; or (iii) termination of ▇▇▇'s

reimbursement, use of company automobile, and health insurance.

the fifth year for any reason, other than a felony conviction or gross
misconduct/fraud on his part, SFX would immediately pay Ed a lump sum
payment in cash equal to the lesser of $300,000 or the remaining salary
and guaranteed minimum incentive compensation due him under his
employment contract, and would continue his benefits for 18 months. ▇▇▇
agrees, that if he terminates his employment on his own accord, SFX
would be released from its obligation to pay this severance package.
As a condition of his employment contract, ▇▇ will enter into a
non-compete and non-solicitation agreement with SFX (the "Non-compete
Agreement") governing his activities within the Richmond, Virginia radio
