C.        Each of FAI, the FAI Stockholders and the Company desires to amend the Agreement again by entering into this Amendment.
 
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:
 
1.        Section 1.08 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
 
Stock Cancellation. On or before the Closing, FAI shall cause to be cancelled 1,662,214 shares of the outstanding FAI Common Stock held by certain of its stockholders who hold restricted Common Stock and it shall transfer to such stockholders its existing business and related assets and liabilities in consideration of the cancellation of their FAI Common Stock. Such stockholders, by their signature below, agree to the cancellation of their stock as aforesaid and to the assumption of all liabilities of the existing FAI business. After the cancellation of these shares, the total outstanding shares of FAI Common Stock as of immediately prior to the Effective Time of the Merger shall not exceed 1,210,786 shares.”

5.        Section 4.01(b) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

“sell, assign or otherwise transfer any of their assets, except for the sale of Broadcast Licenses by the Company, as determined by its Board of Directors, cancel or compromise any debts or claims relating to their assets, other than for fair value, in the ordinary course of business, and consistent with past practice, or declare, set aside or pay any dividend or distribution payable in cash, stock, property or otherwise (other than (A) a declaration and payment by the Company, so long as the appropriate amount of such dividends are held in trust and paid to the holders of the FAI Common Stock if the Merger is consummated, or (B) in connection with the cancellation of those shares of common stock held by the FAI Stockholders specified in Section 1.08 of this Agreement);”
 
6.        Section 5.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
 
Shareholder Approvals. FAI will, as promptly as practicable following June 1, 2007, call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders (the “Shareholders Meeting”) for the purpose of obtaining the FAI Shareholder Approval. As soon as practicable after the date of this Agreement, FAI shall file with the S.E.C. a registration of Form S-4 (such registration statement, and any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively, the “Merger Registration Statement”) covering the issuance of Public FAI Common Stock to the holders of the Company Stock in the Merger. FAI shall use its best efforts to cause the Merger Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, and shall cause the proxy statement included in the Merger Registration Statement (the “Proxy Statement”) to be mailed to the holders of the FAI Stock. FAI agrees to provide the Company and its counsel with any written or oral comments FAI or its counsel may receive from the S.E.C. with respect to the Merger Registration Statement promptly after the receipt of such comments. FAI shall also provide the Company and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review each of the filings relating to the Merger Registration Statement prior to its filing with the S.E.C. or dissemination to the holders of the FAI Stock and to participate, including by way of discussions with the S.E.C., in the response of FAI to such comments. The Company agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by FAI in connection with the Merger Registration Statement. The Board of Directors of FAI will take all lawful action to solicit such approval, including, without limitation, the timely mailing of the Proxy Statement. At the Shareholders Meeting, the FAI Shareholders will vote all FAI Stock held by them in favor of the adoption and approval of this Agreement, the Merger and the transactions contemplated hereby. The Company will, as promptly as practicable following June 1, 2007, call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its shareholders, or obtain the written consent of the holders of at least two-thirds of the outstanding Company Stock, for the purpose of obtaining the Company Shareholder Approval.”

7.         Section 6.03(c) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
 
                   “(c)    Forgiveness of Excess Liabilities. FAI and the FAI Shareholders shall have obtained for the benefit of Public FAI, prior to the Closing Date, the forgiveness or satisfaction of (i) sufficient liabilities or obligations of FAI necessary so that the liabilities and obligations of FAI at the Effective Time of the Merger do not exceed the limitation of $200,000 set forth in Section 3.02(e) of this Agreement.”
 
8.        Section 7.01(c) of the Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:
