"VOTING STOCK" means any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents entitled ordinarily, and in the absence of contingencies, to vote for the election of directors of the Company. (ii) The following defined term shall be substituted in lieu of the existing defined term "Chancellor Holders" in Section 1.1 of the Stockholders Agreement (and wherever such term is elsewhere used in the Stockholders Agreement): "AMFM HOLDERS" means, collectively, AMFM Operating and any Affiliates of AMFM Operating who then are parties to this Stockholders Agreement and who own any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents or any interest therein.

3 Section 2.1.3 Committee Representation. Section 2.1.4 Costs and Expenses. Section 4.2 Other Significant Transactions. Section 7.1 Financial Statements (C) Article 3 of the Stockholders Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following provisions shall be substituted therefor: "Article 3 RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CERTAIN DISPOSITIONS BY AMFM HOLDERS; LOCK-UP SECTION 3.1 RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN CERTAIN DISPOSITIONS BY AMFM HOLDERS. (a) Subject to the provisions of this Section 3.1, in the event that any one or more of the AMFM Holders proposes to offer or sell any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for an aggregate offering price of $200 million or more to any Person who is not an Affiliate of the AMFM Holders in a single offering or a series of related offerings (if at the time of the first of such series of related offerings the Selling AMFM Holders know that there will be a series of related offerings to a single purchaser or affiliated group of purchasers having an aggregate offering price of $200 million or more) (a "Third-Party Sale"), then such Selling AMFM Holders shall give notice in writing to such effect (a "Co-Sale Notice") to the Company not later than (i) three (3) Business Days before the date of a proposed offer or sale other than an Underwritten Offering or (ii) ten (10) Business Days before the date of a proposed Underwritten Offering. The Co-Sale Notice shall state the number of shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents that the Selling AMFM Holders intend to sell, the purchase price per share (or the method of calculating such price), and any other material terms and conditions of the proposed offer and sale. Upon receipt of the Co-Sale Notice, the Company shall have the right (the "Co-Sale Right"), exercisable by written notice (an "Election Notice") to the Selling AMFM Holders given within three (3) Business Days after receipt of the Co-Sale Notice, to elect to include in such Third-Party Sale, additional shares of Common Stock for sale for the Company's account (but not for the account of any other Person), at the price per share (or the method of calculating such price) and on the same terms and conditions specified in the Co-Sale Notice (or at such other price or on such other terms as the Selling AMFM Holders and the Company may agree). Any such election by the Company shall be irrevocable; provided, however, that if the price per share is not specified in the Co-Sale Notice, then the Company shall have the right to revoke the Election Notice within one (1) Business Day following the determination of the price (except that the Company shall not have a right to revoke the Election Notice if an estimated price per share is specified
4 in the Co-Sale Notice and the actual price per share is not more than five-percent (5%) greater or more than five percent (5%) less than the estimated price per share specified in the Co-Sale Notice). Failure of the Company to give an Election Notice within such three (3) Business Day period shall be deemed an election by the Company not to participate in the proposed Third-Party Sale. (b) The number of shares of Common Stock that the Company shall be entitled to sell in a Third-Party Sale shall be determined solely by the Company and shall be set forth in the Election Notice; provided, however, that if in the good faith view of the underwriter, placement agent, broker-dealer or other similar person engaged by the Selling AMFM Holders in connection with such offering (or, if no such person has been engaged, of the Board of Directors of the Selling AMFM Holders), the inclusion of all or a part of such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents in the Third-Party Sale would be likely to have a material adverse effect on the price, timing or distribution of the offering and sale of the Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents then contemplated by the Selling AMFM Holders, or if the purchaser is not willing to purchase all or a part of such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents from the Company, then the number of additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents that shall be included in the Third-Party Sale shall be reduced to the number (if any) of such shares that can, in the good faith view of the underwriter, placement agent, broker-dealer or other similar person engaged by the Selling AMFM Holders in connection with such offering (or, if no such person has been engaged, of the Board of Directors of the Selling AMFM Holders), be sold in such Third-Party Sale without so materially adversely affecting such offering and sale, or in the case that the purchaser is not willing to purchase all or a part of such additional shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents from the Company, reduced to the amount that the purchaser, in its sole discretion, is willing to purchase. Further, if the purchaser or any other Person is granted an option to purchase additional securities of the Company in connection with such Third-Party Sale, then the Company shall be entitled to offer additional shares of Common Stock in full satisfaction of such option, such election to be made in the Company's Election Notice described above. (c) The Company shall not have any Co-Sale Right involving a block trade, other than as set forth in this Section 3.1(c). In the event that the Selling AMFM Holders engage in a transaction involving a block trade of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, the Selling AMFM Holders will use their reasonable best efforts to give the Company advance notice of such block trade (a "Block Trade Notice") and a Co-Sale Right in connection with such block trade, so long as: (i) the Block Trade Notice will not have a material adverse effect on the Selling AMFM Holders' ability to consummate the block trade, and (ii) there is sufficient capacity in the block trade to enable the Company to exercise its Co-Sale Right. (d) The Company shall not have any Co-Sale Right pursuant to this Section 3.1 in connection with any sale or disposition of Common Stock or
5 Common Stock Equivalents by the Selling AMFM Holders (or their successors or assigns) in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act to which the provisions of paragraphs (e) and (f) of Rule 144 are applied. (e) Upon the Company's election to participate in a Third-Party Sale pursuant to this Section 3.1, and subject to Section 3.1(b), the closing of such sale shall be held at the time and place designated by the Selling AMFM Holders and the proposed purchaser. At the closing of such sale, the Company shall deliver to the purchaser, against payment of the purchase price, the shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents to be issued and sold by the Company to the purchaser, free and clear of all liens, charges, pledges and other encumbrances. SECTION 3.2 LOCK-UP. (a) In connection with an Underwritten Offering (including any block trade) by the AMFM Holders of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents having an aggregate offering price of $200 million or more, if the managing underwriters of such offering reasonably request, the Company shall enter into a lock-up or comparable agreement pursuant to which the Company will not sell or otherwise transfer any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents for a fixed period of time (the "Lock-Up Period"). The AMFM Holders and the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the underwriters to agree to a Lock-Up Period not to exceed sixty (60) days, but the Company agrees to accept a longer Lock-Up Period to the extent reasonably required by the underwriters, not to exceed ninety (90) days. (b) In connection with an Underwritten Offering by the Company of any Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents having an aggregate offering price of $200 million or more, if the managing underwriters of such offering reasonably request, the AMFM Holders shall enter into a lock-up or comparable agreement pursuant to which the AMFM Holders will not sell or otherwise transfer any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents during the Lock-Up Period. The Company and the AMFM Holders shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the underwriters to agree to a Lock-Up Period not to exceed sixty (60) days, but the AMFM Holders agree to accept a longer Lock-Up Period to the extent reasonably required by the underwriters, not to exceed ninety (90) days; provided, however, that the AMFM Holders (and their successors and assigns) shall not be subject to any lock-up or comparable agreement pursuant to this Section 3.2(b): (i) at any time during the 60-day period commencing on the Effectiveness Date (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) or (ii) at any time during the 90-day period preceding December 31, 2002. The foregoing shall not prohibit the transfer of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents during a Lock-Up Period (x) to any Affiliate of the AMFM Holders (so long as such Affiliate is bound by the provisions of this Stockholders Agreement, including the lock-up agreement contemplated by this Section 3.2(b)) or (y) pursuant to a bona fide pledge of such shares to a lender or in connection with a foreclosure (or similar proceeding or remedy) effected with
6 respect to any such pledge (so long as such lender agrees to be bound by the lock-up agreement contemplated by this Section 3.2(b)). SECTION 3.3 DUE DILIGENCE. In connection with any offer or sale by the AMFM Holders of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, if the AMFM Holders so request, the Company shall give the AMFM Holders, a single representative of the proposed purchasers of Common Stock or Common Stock Equivalents, and their respective counsel, accountants, bankers and advisors, reasonable and customary access to the Company's books, records and properties and such opportunities to discuss the business and affairs of the Company with its officers and the independent public accounts who have certified the Company's financial statements; provided, however, that (i) the AMFM Holders and any such proposed purchasers shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to the Company which shall include, without limitation, an agreement not to use or disclose to any other person, including any competitor of the Company, any non-public information disclosed as a result of such investigation, and (ii) the AMFM Holders, the representative of the proposed purchasers and their respective counsel, accountants, bankers and advisors shall use their reasonable best efforts to minimize the disruption to the Company's business and shall to the extent practicable coordinate any such investigation of the Company's books, records and properties and any such discussions with the Company's officers and accountants so that all such investigations and discussions occur at the same time." (D) Section 4.1 of the Stockholders Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following provisions shall be substituted therefor: "SECTION 4.1 TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES. The Company will not, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or engage in any transaction with or for the benefit of any of its Affiliates (other than transactions between the Company and a wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company or among wholly owned Subsidiaries of the Company), except for any such transaction which is on terms no less favorable than those that might reasonably have been obtained in a comparable transaction on an arm's-length basis from a person that is not an Affiliate. With respect to the requirement set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, for a transaction or series of related transactions involving a value of $1,000,000 or more, such determination will be made in good faith by a majority of the members of the Company's Board of Directors and a majority of the disinterested members of the Company's Board of Directors, and for a transaction or series of transactions involving a value of $5,000,000 or more, the Company's Board of Directors must receive an opinion from a nationally recognized investment banking firm that such transaction is (or that such series of transactions are) fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company or such Subsidiary, as applicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the restrictions set forth in this Section 4.1 shall not apply to reasonable and customary directors' fees, reasonable and customary directors' or officers' indemnification arrangements, or reasonable and customary compensatory arrangements with officers of the Company."
7 (E) Section 7.3 of the Stockholders Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and the following provisions shall be substituted therefor: "SECTION 7.3.1 VOTING OF AMFM HOLDERS. The AMFM Holders shall take such action as may be required so that all shares of Voting Stock beneficially owned by them shall be present for quorum purposes, in person or represented by proxy, at any regular or special meeting of stockholders of the Company, and shall vote such shares of Voting Stock at any such meeting of stockholders or in any written consent executed in lieu of such a meeting of stockholders in the same proportion as the vote of all holders of Voting Stock not held by the AMFM Holders that are present, in person or by proxy, at such meeting and voting with respect to any matter. The AMFM Holders hereby grant the Company an irrevocable proxy to vote the shares of Voting Stock beneficially owned by them in accordance with the provision of this Section 7.3.1.

8 Company or any of its affiliates or soliciting or proposing to effect or negotiate any form of business combination, any tender offer or exchange offer for any debt or equity securities of the Company, or any restructuring, recapitalization or other extraordinary transaction involving, or any change in control of, the Company, its affiliates or any of their respective securities or assets or (ii) seeking board representation or the removal of any directors or management or a change in the composition or size of the Company's Board of Directors.

ARTICLE 2 REGISTRATION RIGHTS SECTION 2.1 SHELF REGISTRATION. (a) If the Issuer shall not have previously filed the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to the Original Agreement, then within ten (10) Business Days after the effective date of this Agreement (the "Filing Date"), the Issuer shall prepare and file with the Commission a Registration Statement (the "Shelf Registration Statement") on Form S-3 (or if the Issuer is not then eligible to use Form S-3, then Form S-1) (or any successor forms thereto) which shall cover all of the Registrable Securities for an offering to be made on a continuous basis pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. The Issuer (i) except as permitted by
5 Section 3.1 of the Stockholders Agreement, shall not permit any securities other than the Registrable Securities to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement and (ii) shall use its best efforts to cause the Shelf Registration Statement to be declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as possible after the filing thereof, and to keep the Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective under the Securities Act until the Registration Termination Date, or such earlier date when all Registrable Securities cease to be Registrable Securities for purposes of this Agreement (the "Effectiveness Period"). (b) The Issuer shall (i) not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or any related Prospectus or any amendment or supplement thereto, furnish to the Holders, their counsel and any managing underwriters, copies of all such documents proposed to be filed (but excluding for such purpose any documents incorporated by reference into the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus), which documents will be subject to the review of such Holders, their counsel and such managing underwriters, and copies of all "comment letters" with respect to any such filed documents received by the Issuer from the Commission and (ii) cause its officers and directors, counsel and independent certified public accountants to respond to such inquiries as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of respective counsel to such Holders and such underwriters, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act.

The Issuer shall furnish the Holders and their counsel and any managing underwriters with copies of any documents incorporated by reference into the Shelf Registration Statement or the Prospectus promptly after filing any such document with the Commission. The sections of the Shelf Registration Statement covering information with respect to the Holders, the Holders' beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer or the Holders' intended method of disposition of Registrable Securities shall conform to the written information provided to the Issuer by each of the Holders specifically for use therein. The provisions of this Section 2.1(b) shall be effective upon the execution hereof (notwithstanding anything contained in Section 3.13 to the contrary) and also shall be applicable to the Required Shelf Registration to be prepared and filed pursuant to Section 2.1 of the Original Agreement, if any. SECTION 2.2 UNDERWRITTEN OFFERING. Upon the election of the Majority Holders, one or more offerings of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement may be effected in the form of an Underwritten Offering. In such event, the underwriters that will administer the offering will be selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such offering. No Holder (or the Issuer, as provided in Section 3.1 of the Stockholders Agreement) may participate in any Underwritten Offering hereunder unless such Holder (or the Issuer) (i) agrees to sell its Registrable Securities (or other securities) on the basis provided in any underwriting agreements approved by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities included in such offering and (ii) completes and executes all questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, underwriting agreements and other documents required under the terms of such arrangements.
6 SECTION 2.3 INCLUSION OF COMMON STOCK BY ISSUER. Except as provided in Section 3.1 of the Stockholders Agreement, the Issuer shall not permit any securities other than the Registrable Securities to be included in the Shelf Registration Statement. If the Issuer elects to include additional shares of Common Stock in an Underwritten Offering pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Stockholders Agreement, then the Holders of the Registrable Securities to be offered in an Underwritten Offering may require that any such additional shares of Common Stock to be included by the Issuer in such offering be sold and issued on the same terms and conditions as the Registrable Securities that are included therein. SECTION 2.4 CERTAIN DELAY RIGHTS. If at any time while the Shelf Registration Statement is effective the Issuer provides written notice to each Holder that in the good faith and reasonable judgment of the Issuer's Board of Directors, it would be materially disadvantageous to the Issuer (because the sale of Registrable Securities covered by such registration statement or the disclosure of information therein or in any related prospectus or prospectus supplement would materially interfere with (i) any acquisition or other material third-party transaction in connection with which a registration of securities under the Securities Act for the Issuer's account is then intended or (ii) the public disclosure of which at the time would be materially prejudicial to the Issuer (a "Disadvantageous Condition")) for sales of Registrable Securities thereunder to then be permitted, and setting forth the general reasons for such judgment, the Issuer may refrain from maintaining current the Prospectus contained in the Shelf Registration Statement until such Disadvantageous Condition no longer exists (notice of which the Issuer shall deliver in writing to each Holder on the first date such Disadvantageous Condition no longer exists). With respect to each Holder, upon the receipt by such Holder of any such notice of a Disadvantageous Condition in connection with the Shelf Registration Statement, (x) such Holder shall forthwith discontinue use of the Prospectus under the Shelf Registration Statement and shall suspend sales of Registrable Securities until such Disadvantageous Condition no longer exists and (y) if so directed by the Issuer by notice as aforesaid, such Holder will deliver to the Issuer all copies, other than permanent file copies then in such Holder's possession, of the Prospectus then covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice as aforesaid. Notwithstanding anything else contained in this Agreement, (X) neither the Filing Date nor the Effectiveness Date of the Shelf Registration Statement may be delayed pursuant to this Section 2.4 (Y) there shall be no suspension of sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.4 at any time during the sixty (60) day period commencing on the Effectiveness Date or at any time during the ninety (90) day period preceding the Registration Termination Date, and (Z) the suspension of sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Section 2.4 shall not exceed a total of sixty (60) days in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period. SECTION 2.5 EXPENSES. Except as provided herein, the Holders shall pay all Registration Expenses with respect to the Shelf Registration Statement and shall promptly reimburse the Issuer for any such expenses paid by the Issuer upon presentation of reasonably detailed invoices therefor, provided such registration statement becomes effective in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Issuer shall include in an Underwritten Offering additional shares of Common Stock for the account of the Issuer in accordance with Section 3.1 of the Stockholders Agreement, then (i) the Issuer shall pay (or reimburse the Holders, as applicable) a pro rata share of the Registration Expenses (based on the ratio that the number of additional shares of Common Stock actually sold for the Issuer's account bears to the aggregate number of shares actually sold in the Underwritten Offering), and (ii) the
7 Issuer shall be responsible for all underwriting discounts and commissions, selling or placement agent or broker fees and commissions, and transfer taxes, if any, in connection with any sale of securities by the Issuer.

If and whenever the Issuer is required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act as provided in this Agreement, the Issuer shall as promptly as practicable: (a) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to the Shelf Registration Statement and the Prospectus used in connection therewith as may be necessary to keep the Shelf Registration Statement effective, including any amendment or supplement with respect to an Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities and including any amendment or supplement to reflect any transfer of Registrable Securities to any subsequent Holder (which will have the right to be named as a selling shareholder in the Shelf Registration Statement), at all times during the Effectiveness Period, and, during such period, comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to the Issuer in order to permit the disposition by the Holders of all Registrable Securities; (b) furnish to the Holders of Registrable Securities and to any underwriter of such Registrable Securities (i) such number of conformed copies of the Shelf Registration Statement and of each such amendment and supplement thereto (in each case including financial statements and schedules, and all exhibits), (ii) such number of copies of the Prospectus included in the Shelf Registration Statement (including each preliminary prospectus), in conformity with the requirements of the Securities Act, and (iii) such documents incorporated by reference in the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus as the Holders of Registrable Securities or such underwriter may reasonably request in order to facilitate the disposition of the Registrable Securities owned by such Holder or the sale of such securities by such underwriter (it being understood that, subject to Section 2.4 of this Agreement and the requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, the Issuer consents to the use of the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto by each Holder of Registrable Securities and any underwriter of such Registrable Securities in connection with the offering and sale of the Registrable Securities covered by the Shelf Registration Statement of which such Prospectus, amendment or supplement is a part); (c) in the case of any Underwritten Offering, furnish to each Selling Holder and any underwriter of Registrable Securities an opinion of counsel for the Issuer and "cold comfort" letters and updates thereof signed by the independent public accountants who have audited the Issuer's financial statements included in the Shelf Registration Statement, in each such case covering substantially such matters with respect to such registration statement (and the prospectus included therein) and the related offering as are customarily covered in opinions of issuer's counsel with respect thereto and in accountants' letters delivered to underwriters in underwritten public offerings of securities, together with any consents required in connection therewith; (d) promptly notify each Holder and each underwriter of Registrable Securities in writing (i) at any time when a prospectus relating to a registration pursuant to this Agreement is required to be delivered under the Securities Act, of the happening of any event as
8 a result of which the prospectus included in such registration statement, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (ii) of any request by the Commission or any other regulatory body having jurisdiction for any additional information or amendment or supplement to the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus, and in either such case, at the request of any Holder or underwriter, promptly prepare and furnish to each Holder and underwriter a reasonable number of copies of a supplement to or an amendment of such prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter delivered to the purchasers of such Registrable Securities, such prospectus shall not include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; (e) cause all such Registrable Securities covered by such registration to be listed on the Nasdaq National Market, or if other than the Nasdaq National Market, on the principal securities exchange or automated interdealer quotation system on which the Common Stock is then listed or included for quotation; (f) cooperate with each Selling Holder and each underwriter participating in the disposition of Registrable Securities and their respective counsel in connection with any filings required to be made with the NASD; (g) subject to Section 2.4 of this Agreement, timely file all documents required to be filed with the Commission pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the period when a prospectus is required to be delivered under the Securities Act; (h) subject to Section 2.4 of this Agreement, promptly prepare and file with the Commission any amendments or supplements to the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus which, in the opinion of the Issuer's counsel or the managing underwriter, are required in connection with the distribution of the Registrable Securities; (i) advise each Selling Holder, promptly after it shall receive notice or obtain knowledge thereof, of the issuance of any stop order by the Commission suspending the effectiveness of the Shelf Registration Statement or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose and promptly use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance of any stop order or to obtain its withdrawal at the earliest possible moment if such stop order should be issued; (j) use reasonable best efforts to assist the Holders in the marketing of the Registrable Securities in connection with any Underwritten Offering hereunder (including but not limited to using reasonable best efforts to have officers of the Issuer attend "road shows" and analyst or investor presentations scheduled in connection with such registration); (k) make generally available to its security holders as soon as practicable, but not later than ninety (90) days after the close of the period covered thereby, an earning statement (in form complying with the provisions of Rule 158 under the Securities Act) covering a twelve
9 (12) month period beginning not later than the first day of the Issuer's fiscal quarter next following the effective date of the Shelf Registration Statement; (l) to the extent applicable, use its reasonable best efforts to (i) register and qualify the Registrable Securities under the securities or "blue sky" laws of such jurisdictions as any Holder may reasonably request, (ii) prepare and file in those jurisdictions such amendments (including post-effective amendments) and supplements to such registrations and qualifications as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the Effectiveness Period, (iii) take such other actions as may be necessary to maintain such registrations and qualifications and as may be necessary to maintain the effectiveness thereof at all times during the Effectiveness Period, and (iv) take all other actions reasonably necessary or advisable to qualify the Registrable Securities for sale by the Holders in such jurisdictions (provided that the Issuer shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify generally to do business or file a general consent to service of process in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify but for this Section 2.6(l)); (m) cooperate with each Holder and the managing underwriters to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates (not bearing any restrictive legends) representing Registrable Securities sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144 and enable such certificates to be in such denominations or amounts as any Holder and the managing underwriters may reasonably request and registered in such names as such Holder and the managing underwriters may reasonably request. The Issuer shall give appropriate instructions to the Issuer's transfer agent to cause the transfer agent to deliver certificates representing the Registrable Securities without any restrictive legends upon receipt of the Holder's certification that such Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement or in a transaction pursuant to Rule 144 and shall cause the Issuer's legal counsel to deliver to the transfer agent an opinion in customary form as required to remove such restrictive legends provided that such counsel may reasonably require such certifications from Holders; and (n) within two (2) Business Days after the Shelf Registration Statement is declared effective by the Commission, deliver, and shall cause the Issuer's legal counsel to deliver, to the transfer agent for such Registrable Securities, confirmation that the Shelf Registration Statement has been declared effective by the Commission. The Issuer may require each Selling Holder to furnish to the Issuer such information regarding the Selling Holder and the distribution of such Registrable Securities as the Issuer may from time to time reasonably request in writing and such other information as may be legally required in connection with such registration. Each Selling Holder also agrees to notify the Issuer of any event relating to the Selling Holder that occurs that would require the preparation of a supplement or amendment to the Prospectus so that the information furnished or required to be furnished by such Selling Holder that is contained in the Prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading. In no event shall the Issuer be required to amend the Shelf Registration Statement filed after it has become effective or to amend or supplement the Prospectus to permit the continued
10 disposition of shares of Common Stock owned by a Selling Holder registered under the Shelf Registration Statement at any time after the Effectiveness Period. Each Selling Holder agrees that, upon receipt of any notice from the Issuer of the happening of any event of the kind described in paragraph (d)(i) above, the Selling Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement until the Selling Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended prospectus contemplated by paragraph (d) above, and, if so directed by the Issuer, the Selling Holder will deliver to the Issuer (at the Issuer's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Selling Holder's possession, of the prospectus covering such Registrable Securities at the time of receipt of such notice. SECTION 2.7 UNDERWRITING; DUE DILIGENCE. (a) If requested by the underwriters for any Underwritten Offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to this Article 2, the Issuer shall enter into an underwriting agreement with such underwriters for such offering, which agreement will contain such representations and warranties by the Issuer and such other terms and provisions as are customarily contained in underwriting agreements with respect to secondary distributions, and confirm the same if and when requested in accordance with customary practice. If an underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification provisions and procedures no less favorable to the Selling Holders and the underwriters than those set forth in Section 2.8 of this Agreement (or such other provisions and procedures acceptable to the managing underwriters and Holders of a majority of Registrable Securities participating in such Underwritten Offering). (b) In connection with the preparation and filing of the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to this Article 2, the Issuer shall give the Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters, if any, and their respective counsel and accountants, such reasonable and customary access to its books, records and properties and such opportunities to discuss the business and affairs of the Issuer with its officers and the independent public accounts who have certified the financial statements of the Issuer as shall be necessary, in the reasonable opinion of such Holders and such underwriters or their respective counsel, to conduct a reasonable investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act; provided that (i) each Holder and the underwriters and their respective counsel and accountants shall have entered into a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and (ii) the Holders of such Registrable Securities and the underwriters and their respective counsel and accountants shall use their reasonable best efforts to minimize the disruption to the Issuer's business and coordinate any such investigation of the books, records and properties of the Issuer and any such discussions with the Issuer's officers and accountants so that all such investigations occur at the same time and all such discussions occur at the same time. (c) The Issuer shall be subject to the lock-up provisions contained in Section 3.2 of the Stockholders Agreement.
11 SECTION 2.8 INDEMNIFICATION. (a) The Issuer agrees to indemnify and reimburse, to the fullest extent permitted by law, each Selling Holder, and each Selling Holder's employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers, and directors and each Person who controls the Selling Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) (collectively, the "Seller Affiliates"), and each underwriter, if any, and each person who controls each such underwriter (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses, joint or several (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements except as limited by Section 2.8(c) below) based upon, arising out of, related to or resulting from any untrue or allegedly untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus, or preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as the same are made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to the Issuer by such Selling Holder or any Seller Affiliate specifically for use therein or arise from such Selling Holder's or any Seller Affiliate's failure to deliver a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Issuer has furnished such Selling Holder or Seller Affiliate with a sufficient number of copies of the same. The reimbursements required by this Section 2.8(a) will be made by periodic payments during the course of the investigation or defense, as and when bills are received or expenses incurred. (b) Each Selling Holder will jointly and severally indemnify the Issuer and its directors and officers and each of its employees, advisors, agents, representatives, partners, officers, and directors and each Person who controls the Issuer (within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act) against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys' fees and disbursements except as limited by Section 2.8(c) below) resulting from: (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus, or any preliminary prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by a Selling Holder or any of its Seller Affiliates specifically for inclusion in the Shelf Registration Statement, Prospectus, preliminary prospectus, amendments or supplements; or (ii) a Selling Holder's or any Seller Affiliate's failure to deliver a copy of the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or any amendments or supplements thereto after the Issuer has furnished the Selling Holder or Seller Affiliate with a sufficient number of copies of the same; provided, however, that such liability will be limited to the net amount received by the Selling Holders from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Shelf Registration Statement; provided, further, that the Selling Holders shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that, prior to the filing of the Shelf Registration Statement or Prospectus or amendment thereof or supplement thereto, the Selling Holders furnished in writing to the Issuer information expressly for use in such registration statement or prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto which corrected or made not misleading information previously furnished to the Issuer.
12 (c) Any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder will give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give such notice shall not limit the rights of such Person except to the extent such failure prejudiced the indemnifying party) and permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim; provided, however, that any Person entitled to indemnification hereunder shall have the right to employ separate counsel and to participate in the defense of such claim, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Person unless (i) the indemnifying party has agreed to pay such fees or expenses, (ii) the indemnifying party shall have failed to assume the defense of such claim or (iii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to such indemnified party, a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim. The indemnifying party will not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent will not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). The indemnifying party shall not settle or otherwise compromise the applicable claim unless (A) such settlement or compromise contains a full and unconditional release of the indemnified party or (B) the indemnified party otherwise consents in writing. The indemnifying party will not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party, a conflict of interest may exist between the indemnifying party and any indemnified party with respect to such claim, in which event the indemnifying party shall be obligated to pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel for such indemnified party. (d) Each party hereto agrees that, if for any reason the indemnification provisions contemplated by Section 2.8(a) or Section 2.8(b) are unavailable to or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to therein, then each indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in connection with the actions which resulted in the losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Selling Holders or any underwriters or all of them were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this Section 2.8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities, or expenses (or actions in respect thereof) referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or, except as provided in Section 2.8(c) above, defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 2.8(d), no Holder shall be required to contribute an amount greater than the dollar amount by which the net proceeds received by such Selling Holder with respect to the sale of any Registrable Securities exceeds the amount of damages which such Selling Holder has otherwise
13 been required to pay by reason of such statement or omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The Selling Holders' obligations in this Section 2.8(d) to contribute shall be joint and several in proportion to the amount of Registrable Securities registered by them. If indemnification is available under this Section 2.8, the indemnifying parties shall indemnify each indemnified party to the full extent provided in Section 2.8(a) and Section 2.8(b) without regard to the relative fault of said indemnifying party or indemnified party or any other equitable consideration provided for in this Section 2.8(d) subject, in the case of the Holders, to the limited dollar amounts set forth in Section 2.8(b). The indemnification and contribution provided for under this Agreement shall be in addition to any liability which any party may otherwise have to any other party and shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director, or controlling Person of such indemnified party and will survive the transfer of the Common Stock and the termination of this Agreement. SECTION 2.9 FORM S-3 ELIGIBILITY; CONVERSION. In the event that the Shelf Registration Statement is filed on Form S-1 because the Issuer does not, at the time of such registration, meet the registrant eligibility and transaction requirements for the use of Form S-3 (for secondary offerings), the Issuer shall convert such Form S-1 to a Form S-3 immediately upon its satisfaction of the registrant eligibility and transaction requirements for the use of Form S-3. Upon such conversion, the Issuer shall file all reports required to be filed by the Company with the Commission in a timely manner so as to maintain such eligibility for the use of Form S-3. SECTION 2.10 RULE 144 REPORTING. With a view to making available the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the Commission that may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Issuer agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to: (a) make and keep public information regarding the Issuer available as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act; (b) file with the Commission in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of the Issuer under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and (c) furnish to any Holder forthwith upon written request a written statement by the Issuer as to its compliance with the reporting provisions contained in Rule 144(c) under the Securities Act, a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Issuer, and such other reports and documents so filed as any Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the Commission allowing a Holder to sell any of the Registrable Securities without registration. The Issuer shall give appropriate instructions to the Issuer's transfer agent to cause the transfer agent to deliver certificates representing the Registrable Securities without any restrictive legends upon receipt of the Holder's certification that such Registrable Securities have been sold pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Each Holder shall cause its legal
14 counsel to deliver to the transfer agent for the Registrable Securities an opinion in customary form as may be required to remove such restrictive legends following a sale pursuant to Rule 144. ARTICLE 3 MISCELLANEOUS SECTION 3.1 ENTIRE AGREEMENT. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and upon the effectiveness of this Agreement in accordance with Section 3.13, this Agreement shall supersede all other prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, including, without limitation, the Original Agreement and the letter agreement dated as of June 1, 2000 among the Issuer, AMFM and Clear Channel. SECTION 3.2 SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. The provisions of this Agreement are not assignable to any Person other than another Holder. Whether or not an express assignment has been made, provisions of this Agreement that are for the Holders' benefit as the Holders of any Common Stock are, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, also for the benefit of, and enforceable by, all subsequent Holders of such Common Stock, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

1 EXHIBIT 99.1 [LAMAR LETTERHEAD] LAMAR ADVERTISING COMPANY ANNOUNCES ISSUANCE OF DOJ CONSENT DECREE REGARDING CLEAR CHANNEL AND AMFM DIVESTITURE OF LAMAR CLASS A COMMON STOCK Baton Rouge, LA -- August 30, 2000, Lamar Advertising Company (Nasdaq: LAMR), a leading owner and operator of outdoor advertising and logo sign displays, today announced that pursuant to a consent decree filed by the Department of Justice, 26,227,273 shares of Lamar Advertising Company Class A common stock currently held by AMFM Operating Inc., an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of AMFM Inc., will be subject to required divestiture before January 1, 2003 as a condition to DOJ's approval of the merger of AMFM Inc. and Clear Channel Communications, Inc. Lamar has amended the shareholder agreement and registration rights agreement previously entered into with AMFM in connection with Lamar's purchase of AMFM's outdoor advertising business on September 15, 1999, which were effective upon the consummation of the merger of AMFM and Clear Channel, in accordance with the consent decree. Under the amended agreements, Lamar is required to register for sale the 26,227,273 shares of Class A common stock formerly held by AMFM. Further, AMFM and Clear Channel are divested of the right to board representation and approval rights over certain major transactions by Lamar. In addition, they have agreed to vote their shares in the same proportion as the vote of all holders of Lamar voting stock. The consent decree prohibits AMFM and Clear Channel from exercising any governance rights over Lamar. The consent decree also prohibits AMFM and Clear Channel from acquiring any additional shares of Lamar except in connection with an acquisition of a majority voting interest in the company, which would be subject to the requirements of the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act. The consent degree requires that AMFM's board representatives, Thomas O. Hicks and R. Steven Hicks, resign from Lamar's board of directors and all committees of the board. Lamar Advertising Company is a leading outdoor advertising company currently operating 149 outdoor advertising companies in 42 states, logo franchises in 20 states and the province of Ontario, Canada and 31 transit advertising franchises in nine states.
