The Purchaser hereby acknowledges that there are





uncertainties inherent in attempting to make such estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking statements, as well as in such business plans, with which the Purchaser is familiar, that the Purchaser is making its own evaluation of the adequacy and accuracy of all estimates, projections, forecasts and other forward-looking information, as well as such business plans, so furnished to the Purchaser (including the reasonableness of the assumptions underlying such estimates, projections, forecasts, forward-looking information or business plans), and that except for fraud or the representations and warranties made by the Company in Article III of this Agreement and in any certificate or other document delivered in connection with this Agreement, the Purchaser will have no claim against the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any of their respective Representatives, with respect thereto.
Section 4.08    Purchase for Investment. The Purchaser acknowledges that the Series A Preferred Stock and the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state or other applicable securities laws.

The Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in business and financial matters so as to enable it to understand and evaluate the risks of, and form an investment decision with respect to its investment in, the Series A Preferred Stock and the Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock and to protect its own interest in connection with such investment.
Section 4.09    No Other Company Representations or Warranties.

The Purchaser, on behalf of itself and on behalf of its respective Affiliates, expressly waives any such claim relating to the foregoing matters, except with respect to fraud. The Purchaser hereby acknowledges (for itself and on behalf of its Affiliates and Representatives) that it has conducted, to its satisfaction, its own independent investigation of the business, operations, assets and financial condition of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, in making its determination to proceed with the Transactions, the Purchaser and its Affiliates and Representatives have relied on the results of their own independent investigation.

(b)    Until the occurrence of the Fall-Away of Purchaser Board Rights, if the Company proposes to issue equity securities of any kind (the term “equity securities” shall include for these purposes Common Stock and any warrants, options or other rights to acquire, or any securities that are exercisable for, exchangeable for or convertible into, Common Stock or any other class of capital stock of the Company), other than in an Excluded Issuance, then the Company shall:
(i)    give written notice to the Purchaser (no less than ten (10) Business Days prior to the closing of such issuance, setting forth in reasonable detail (A) the designation and all of the terms and provisions of the securities proposed to be issued (the “Proposed Securities”), including, to the extent applicable, the voting powers, preferences and relative participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualification, limitations or restrictions thereof and interest rate and maturity; (B) the price and other terms of the proposed sale of such securities; and (C) the amount of such securities proposed to be issued; provided that following the delivery of such notice, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser any such information the Purchaser may reasonably request in order to evaluate the proposed issuance, except that the Company shall not be required to deliver any information that has not been or will not be provided or otherwise made available to the proposed purchasers of the Proposed Securities; and
(ii)    offer to issue and sell to the Purchaser, on such terms as the Proposed Securities are issued and upon full payment by the Purchaser, a portion of the Proposed Securities equal to a percentage determined by dividing (A) the number of shares of Common Stock the Purchaser beneficially owns (on an as converted basis) by (B) the total number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding (on an as-converted basis) (such percentage, the Purchaser’s “Participation Portion”); provided, however, that to the extent the purchase of any portion of the Proposed Securities by the Purchaser would require Shareholder Approval, (i) the Company shall issue and sell to the Purchaser securities that do not require the Company to obtain Shareholder Approval in respect of such issuance, which securities shall be economically equivalent and otherwise as substantially similar as possible to such





Proposed Securities and (ii) at the written request of the Purchaser, the Company shall hold a meeting of its shareholders for the purpose of obtaining the Shareholder Approval within one hundred twenty (120) days following such request and use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain Shareholder Approval; provided that if the Shareholder Approval is not obtained at such meeting, upon the written request of holders holding a majority of the outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Shareholder Approval at any subsequent annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders until the Shareholder Approval is obtained.
(c)    Subject to the limitations in the Certificate of Designations, the Purchaser will have the option, exercisable by written notice to the Company, to accept the Company’s offer and commit to purchase any or all of the equity securities offered to be sold by the Company to the Purchaser, which notice must be given within seven (7) Business Days after receipt of such notice from the Company. If the Company offers two (2) or more securities in units to the other participants in the offering, the Purchaser must purchase such units as a whole and will not be given the opportunity to purchase only one (1) of the securities making up such unit. The closing of the exercise of such subscription right shall take place simultaneously with the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such subscription right; provided, however, that the closing of any purchase by the Purchaser may be extended beyond the closing of the sale of the Proposed Securities giving rise to such preemptive right to the extent necessary to obtain required approvals from any Governmental Authority. Upon the expiration of the offering period described above, the Company will be free to sell such Proposed Securities that the Purchaser has not elected to purchase during the 90 days following such expiration on terms and conditions no more favorable to the purchasers thereof than those offered to the Purchaser in the notice delivered in accordance with Section 5.14(b). Any Proposed Securities offered or sold by the Company after such 90-day period shall be reoffered to the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 5.14.
(d)    The election by the Purchaser not to exercise its subscription rights under this Section 5.14 in any one instance shall not affect their right as to any subsequent proposed issuance.
(e)    Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.14 to the contrary, the Company will not be deemed to have breached this Section 5.14 if not later than thirty (30) Business Days following the issuance of any Proposed Securities in contravention of this Section 5.14, the Company or the transferee of such Proposed Securities offers to sell a portion of such equity securities or additional equity securities of the type(s) in question to the Purchaser so that, taking into account such previously-issued Proposed Securities and any such additional Proposed Securities, the Purchaser will have had the right to purchase or subscribe for Proposed Securities in a manner consistent with the allocation and other terms and upon same economic and other terms provided for in Sections 5.14(b) and 5.14(c).
(f)    In the case of an issuance subject to this Section 5.14 for consideration in whole or in part other than cash, including securities acquired in exchange therefor (other than





securities by their terms so exchangeable), the consideration other than cash shall be deemed to be the Fair Market Value thereof.
Section 5.15    FCC. If the parties reasonably determine that approval of the Transactions by the FCC is required, then the Company hereby agrees to dispose of Radio Station KXMZ or return the license of Radio Station KXMZ to the FCC for cancellation, in either case no later than September 30, 2017.
Section 5.16    Reimbursement of Expenses. From time to time after the Initial Closing Date, the Purchaser shall receive reimbursement from the Company for all reasonable and documented legal and other out-of-pocket fees and expenses, including reasonable travel expenses, incurred in connection with the negotiation, execution and performance of the Transaction Documents, up to a maximum amount of $750,000 in the aggregate.
Section 5.17    Section 16b-3. So long as the Purchaser has the right to designate at least one Purchaser Designee, the Board shall take such action as is necessary to cause the exemption of acquisitions of the Acquired Shares at the Initial Closing and the Additional Closing, any acquisition of securities from the Company by the Purchaser on any Dividend Payment Date, any purchase of securities representing the Participation Portion pursuant to Section 5.14 by the Purchaser, the disposition of shares of Series A Preferred Stock and the acquisition of shares of Common Stock upon the conversion of any shares of Series A Preferred Stock, and any other disposition of securities to or acquisition of securities from the Company, as applicable, from the liability provisions of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act (“Section 16(b)”) pursuant to Rule 16b-3.

Section 8.01    Amendments; Waivers. Subject to compliance with applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended or supplemented in any and all respects only by written agreement of the parties hereto.
Section 8.02    Extension of Time, Waiver, Etc.. The Company and the Purchaser may, subject to applicable Law, (a) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties of the other party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto, (b) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or acts of the other party or (c) waive compliance by the other party with any of the agreements contained herein applicable to such party or, except as otherwise provided herein, waive any of such party’s conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no failure or delay by the Company or the Purchaser in exercising any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right hereunder. Any agreement on the part of a party hereto to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such party.
Section 8.03    Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of Law or otherwise, by any of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto; provided, however, that (a) the Purchaser or any Permitted Transferee may assign its rights, interests and obligations under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to one or more Permitted Transferees, as contemplated in Section 5.08 and (b) in the event of such assignment, the assignee shall agree in writing to be bound by the provisions of this Agreement applicable to the Purchaser, including the rights, interests and obligations so assigned; provided that no such assignment will relieve any Purchaser of its obligations hereunder; provided, further, that no party hereto shall assign any of its obligations hereunder with the primary intent of avoiding, circumventing or eliminating such party’s obligations hereunder. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, this Agreement shall be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns.
Section 8.04    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including by facsimile or electronic mail), each of which shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement, and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties hereto and delivered to the other parties hereto.
Section 8.05    Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries; No Recourse. (a) This Agreement, including the Company Disclosure Letter, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, the Registration Rights Agreement and the Certificate of Designations, constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties and their Affiliates, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.
(b)    No provision of this Agreement shall confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto and their permitted assigns any rights or remedies hereunder. This Agreement may





only be enforced against, and any claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement may only be made against the entities that are expressly identified as parties hereto, including entities that become parties hereto after the date hereof or that agree in writing for the benefit of the Company to be bound by the terms of this Agreement applicable to the Purchaser, and no former, current or future equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents or Affiliates of any party hereto or any former, current or future equityholder, controlling person, director, officer, employee, general or limited partner, member, manager, advisor, agent or Affiliate of any of the foregoing (each, a “Non-Recourse Party”) shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of the parties to this Agreement or for any claim (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, the transactions contemplated hereby or in respect of any representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. Without limiting the rights of any party against the other parties hereto, in no event shall any party or any of its Affiliates seek to enforce this Agreement against, make any claims for breach of this Agreement against, or seek to recover monetary damages from, any Non-Recourse Party.
Section 8.06    Governing Law; Jurisdiction. (a) This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York pursuant to Section 5-1401 of the New York General Obligations Law.
(b)    All Actions arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of any state or federal court sitting in the State of New York in the borough of Manhattan and any appellate court thereof and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such courts in any such Action and irrevocably waive the defense of an inconvenient forum or lack of jurisdiction to the maintenance of any such Action. The consents to jurisdiction and venue set forth in this Section 8.06 shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of New York and shall have no effect for any purpose except as provided in this paragraph and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the parties hereto. Each party hereto agrees that service of process upon such party in any Action arising out of or relating to this Agreement shall be effective if notice is given by overnight courier at the address set forth in Section 8.10 of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that a final judgment in any such Action shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law; provided that nothing in the foregoing shall restrict any party’s rights to seek any post-judgment relief regarding, or any appeal from, a final trial court judgment.
Section 8.07    Specific Enforcement. The parties hereto agree that irreparable damage for which monetary relief, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy, would occur in the event that Sections 5.05 or Section 5.07 are not performed in accordance with their specific terms or are otherwise breached. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Company shall be entitled to seek an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of Sections 5.05 and Section 5.07 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof in the courts described in Section 8.06 without proof of damages or otherwise, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled under this Agreement and (b) this right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Transactions and without that right, the Company would not





have entered into this Agreement. The Purchaser agrees not to assert that a remedy of specific enforcement is unenforceable, invalid, contrary to Law or inequitable for any reason, and agree not to assert that a remedy of monetary damages would provide an adequate remedy or that the parties otherwise have an adequate remedy at law. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with its pursuit of an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of Sections 5.06 or Section 5.07 and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof.
Section 8.08    [Reserved].
Section 8.09    WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY WHICH MAY ARISE UNDER THIS AGREEMENT IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE IT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT AND ANY OF THE AGREEMENTS DELIVERED IN CONNECTION HEREWITH OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY OR THEREBY. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVER, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVER VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVER AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.09.

Section 8.13    Interpretation. (a) When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, a Section, Exhibit or Schedule, such reference shall be to an Article of, a Section of, or an Exhibit or Schedule to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. The table of contents and headings contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”. The words “hereof”, “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement unless the context requires otherwise. The words “date hereof” when used in this Agreement shall refer to the date of this Agreement. The terms “or”, “any” and “either” are not exclusive. The word “extent” in the phrase “to the extent” shall mean the degree to which a subject or other thing extends, and such phrase shall not mean simply “if”. The word “will” shall be construed to have the same meaning and effect as the word “shall”. The words “made available to the Purchaser” and words of similar import refer to documents (A) posted to a diligence website by or on behalf of the Company and made available to the Purchaser or its Representatives or (B) delivered in Person or electronically to the Purchaser or is Representatives in each case no later than one Business Day prior to the date hereof. All accounting terms used and not defined herein shall have the respective meanings given to them under GAAP.

The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. Unless otherwise specifically indicated, all references to “dollars” or “$” shall refer to the lawful money of the United States. References to a Person are also to its permitted assigns and successors. When calculating the period of time between which, within which or following which any act is to be done or step taken pursuant to this Agreement, the date that is the reference date in calculating such period shall be excluded (unless, otherwise required by Law, if the last day of such period is not a Business Day, the period in question shall end on the next succeeding Business Day).
(b)    The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement and, in the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as jointly drafted by the parties hereto and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any provision of this Agreement.
