          (i)     The Company may terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder for “Cause” (as defined below) by delivering to him a Notice of Termination.

or erroneous certification required of him under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 or any securities exchange on which shares of the Company’s Class A and/or Class B common stock are at the time listed for trading, or (H) the use or disclosure of the confidential and/or proprietary information of another entity in violation of any written agreement(s) between him and such entity. However, prior to any termination of the Executive’s employment for Cause based on any of the reasons specified in clauses (C) through (E) and the delivery of a Notice of Termination in connection therewith, the Company shall give written notice to the Executive of the actions or omissions deemed to constitute the grounds for such a termination for Cause, and the Executive shall have a period of not less than sixty (60) calendar days after the receipt of such notice, during which period the Executive shall continue to be provided with the compensation and benefits described in Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement) in which to cure the specified default in his performance and thereby avoid Termination under this subsection (b)(i).

The rights under this subsection will not be deemed to prejudice the Executive’s other rights and remedies in any way or give rise to any waiver, estoppel, or other defense or bar. Without limiting the foregoing sentence and for purposes of clarification, the failure by the Executive to request a meeting under this subsection, to participate in a meeting that has been requested, or to present any evidence or argument will not prevent the Executive from making any claim against the Company, from seeking any legal or equitable remedy, or from putting forward any evidence or argument at any judicial or arbitral hearing.

     14.      Injunctive Relief . The Executive expressly agrees that the covenants set forth in Sections 9 and 10 of this Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company and its legitimate business interests, and to prevent the unauthorized dissemination of Proprietary Information to competitors of the Company. The Executive also agrees that the Company will be irreparably

harmed and that damages alone cannot adequately compensate the Company if there is a violation of Sections 9 or 10 of this Agreement by the Executive, and that injunctive relief against the Executive is essential for the protection of the Company. Therefore, in the event of any such breach, it is agreed that, in addition to any other remedies available, the Company shall be entitled as a matter of right to injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction, without the necessity of posting a bond, plus the attorneys’ fees and costs actually incurred for the securing of such relief.

     15.      Survival of Certain Provisions . The provisions of Sections 7, 9, 10, 12 through 21, 23, and 24 will survive any termination of this Agreement.

     16.      Withholdings. Any compensation and/or benefits provided to the Executive by the Company shall be subject to the Company’s collection of all applicable payroll deductions and applicable withholding and payroll taxes.

     17.      Successors and Assigns . This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the Company, its successors and assigns, and the Company will require any successor or assign to expressly assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession or assignment had taken place. The term “the Company” as used herein will include any such successors and assigns to the Company’s business and/or assets. The term “successors and assigns” as used herein will mean a corporation or other entity acquiring or otherwise succeeding to, directly or indirectly, all or substantially all the assets and business of the Company (including this Agreement) whether by operation of law or otherwise. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Executive’s legal personal representative.

     18.      Arbitration . Except as otherwise provided in Section 14, any controversy or claim between the Company or any of its affiliates and the Executive arising out of or relating to this Agreement or its termination or any other dispute between the parties, whether arising in tort, contract, or pursuant to a statute, regulation, or ordinance now in existence or which may in the future be enacted or recognized will be settled and determined by a single arbitrator whose award will be accepted as final and binding upon the parties. The arbitration shall be conducted in Miami, Florida and in accordance with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) Employment Arbitration Rules in effect at the time such arbitration is properly initiated. To the extent that any of the AAA rules or anything in the Agreement conflicts with any arbitration procedures required by applicable law, the arbitration procedures required by applicable law shall govern. The costs of the arbitration, including administrative fees and fees charged by the arbitrator, will be borne by the Company. Each party will bear its or his own travel expenses and attorneys’ fees: provided, however that the arbitrator (i) shall award attorneys’ fees to the Executive with respect to any claim for breach of this Agreement on which he is the prevailing party and may award attorneys’ fees to the Executive as otherwise allowed by law and (ii) may award attorneys’ fees to the Company with respect to any other claim on which it is the prevailing party and it is determined by the arbitrator that such claim by the Executive was frivolous in that it presented no colorable arguments for recovery. The arbitration shall be instead of any civil litigation. The arbitrator’s decision shall be final and binding to the fullest extent permitted by law and enforceable by any court having jurisdiction thereof. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

     19.      Notice . For the purposes of this Agreement, notices and all other communications provided for in the Agreement (including the Notice of Termination) will be in writing and will be deemed to have been given when personally delivered or on the third business day following mailing if sent by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or upon receipt if overnight delivery service is used, addressed as follows:

     20.      Miscellaneous . No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived, or discharged unless such waiver, modification, or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Executive and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party will be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time. No agreement or representation, oral or otherwise, express or implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof has been made by either party which is not expressly set forth in this Agreement.

     21.      Counterparts . This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and all of which will constitute but one and the same instrument. An electronic facsimile of a signature, when delivered by the signing party to the non-signing party, will have the same force and effect as an original.

     22.      Governing Law . This Agreement will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida without giving effect to the conflict of law principles thereof.

     23.      Severability . If any provision of this Agreement as applied to any party or to any circumstance should be adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction (or determined by the arbitrator) to be void or unenforceable for any reason, the invalidity of that provision shall in no way affect (to the maximum extent permissible by law) the application of such provision under circumstances different from those adjudicated by the court or determined by the arbitrator, the application of any other provision of this Agreement, or the enforceability or invalidity of this Agreement as a whole. Should any provision of this Agreement become or be deemed invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction by reason of the scope, extent or duration of its coverage, then such provision shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to applicable law so as to be valid and enforceable or, if such provision cannot be so amended without materially altering the intention of the parties, then such provision will be stricken, and the remainder of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

     24.      Entire Agreement . This Agreement shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and shall supersede all prior agreements, if any, understandings and arrangements, oral or written, between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof.

EXHIBIT A

FORM OF GENERAL RELEASE

GENERAL RELEASE

     This AGREEMENT is made as of ____________, 200___, by and between _______________ (“Executive”), and Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (the “Company”).

     In consideration for the severance benefits offered by the Company to Executive pursuant to Section 6 of his Employment Agreement with the Company dated ____________, 2008 (the “Employment Agreement”), Executive agree as follows:

     1.      Termination of Employment. Executive acknowledges that his employment with the Company is terminated effective ____________ (the “Termination Date”), and he agrees that he will not apply for or seek re-employment with the Company, its parent companies, subsidiaries and affiliates after that date. Executive agrees that he has received and reviewed his final paycheck and he has received all wages and accrued but unpaid vacation pay earned by him through the Termination Date.

     2.      Waiver and Release.

          (a)     Except as set forth in Section 2(b), which identifies claims expressly excluded from this release, Executive hereby releases the Company, all affiliated companies, and their respective past and present directors, officers, agents, employees, employee benefit plan fiduciaries and administrators, insurers, stockholders, successors and assigns from any and all claims, liabilities, demands, causes of action, costs, expenses, attorney fees, damages, indemnities and obligations of every kind and nature, in law, equity or otherwise, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising from or relating to Executive’s employment with the Company and the termination of that employment up to the date he signs this Release, including (without limitation): claims of wrongful discharge, emotional distress, defamation, fraud, breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, discrimination or retaliation claims based on sex, age, race, national origin, disability or any other basis under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967, as amended (“ADEA”), the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Equal Pay Act of 1963, as amended, and any similar law of any state or local governmental entity, claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1973, as amended, any contract claims, tort claims and wage or benefit claims, including (without limitation) claims for salary, bonuses, commissions, equity awards (including stock grants, stock options and restricted stock units), vesting acceleration, vacation pay, fringe benefits, severance pay or any other form of compensation.

          (b)     The only claims that Executive is not waiving and releasing under this Agreement are claims he may have for (1) unemployment, state disability, worker’s compensation, and/or paid family leave insurance benefits pursuant to the terms of applicable state law; (2) continuation of existing participation in Company-sponsored group health benefit plans under the federal law known as “COBRA” and/or under an applicable state law counterpart(s); (3) any benefits entitlements that are vested and unpaid as of his termination date pursuant to the terms of a Company-sponsored benefit plan; (4) any benefits to which he is entitled pursuant to Section 7 of the Employment Agreement or his rights to indemnification pursuant to Section 13 of the Employment Agreement, (5) violation of any federal state or local statutory and/or public policy right or entitlement that, by applicable law, is not waivable; (6) any wrongful act or omission occurring after the date he executes this Agreement; and (7) any claim relating to the enforcement of this Agreement under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1963, as amended. In addition, nothing in this Agreement prevents or prohibits Executive from filing a claim with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) or any other government agency that is responsible for enforcing a law on behalf of the government and deems such claims not waivable. However, because Executive is hereby waiving and releasing all claims “for monetary damages and any other form of personal relief” (per Section 2(a) above), he agrees not to seek or accept any personal forms of relief from the EEOC, similar government agencies, or any third party.

          (c)     Executive represents that he has not filed any complaints, charges, claims, grievances, or lawsuits against the Company and/or any related persons with any local, state or federal agency or court, or with any other forum.

          (d)     Executive acknowledges that he may discover facts different from or in addition to those he now knows or believes to be true with respect to the claims, demands, causes of action, obligations, damages, and liabilities of any nature whatsoever that are the subject of this Agreement, and he expressly agrees to assume the risk of the possible discovery of additional or different facts, and agrees that this Agreement shall be and remain in effect in all respects regardless of such additional or different facts. Executive expressly acknowledges that this Agreement is intended to include, and does include in its effect, without limitation, all claims which Executive does not know or suspect to exist in his favor against the Company and/or any related persons at the moment of execution thereof, and that this Agreement expressly contemplates extinguishing all such claims.

          (e)     Executive understands and agrees that the Company has no obligation to provide him with any severance benefits under the Employment Agreement unless he executes this Agreement. Executive also understands that he has received or will receive, regardless of the execution of this Agreement, all wages owed to him, together with any accrued but unpaid vacation pay, less applicable withholdings and deductions, earned through the Termination Date.

          (f)     This Agreement is binding on Executive, his heirs, legal representatives and assigns.

     3.      Cooperation . Executive agrees to cooperate with and assist the Company and its counsel at any time and in any manner reasonably required by the Company or its counsel (with due regard for the Executive’s other commitments if he has obtained other employment) in connection with any litigation or other legal process affecting the Company or in answering questions concerning any other matter of which Executive has knowledge as result of his employment (other than any litigation with respect to this Agreement). In the event of such requested cooperation, the Company shall reimburse Executive for his reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

     4.      Entire Agreement . This Agreement and the Employment Agreement constitute the entire understanding and agreement between Executive and the Company in connection with the matters described, and replaces and cancels all previous agreements and commitments, whether spoken or written, with respect to such matters. Nothing in this Agreement supersedes or replaces any of Executive’s obligations under his Employment Agreement that survive termination, including, but not limited to (i) his (and the Company’s) agreement to arbitrate disputes, (ii) his restrictive covenants under Section 10 of the Employment Agreement and (iii) his obligations under Section 9 of the Employment Agreement, his existing Proprietary Information Inventions Agreement with the Company and any other obligations not to use or disclose Company confidential and/or proprietary information.

     5.      Modification in Writing. No oral agreement, statement, promise, commitment or representation shall alter or terminate the provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement cannot be changed or modified except by written agreement signed by Executive and authorized representatives of the Company.

     6.      Governing Law; Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida.

     7.      Severability. Any term or provision of this Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement in any other jurisdiction. If any provision of this Agreement is so broad as to be unenforceable, the provision shall be interpreted to be only so broad as is enforceable.

     8.      No Admission of Liability. This Agreement does not constitute an admission of any unlawful discriminatory acts or liability of any kind by the Company or anyone acting under their supervision or on their behalf. This Agreement may not be used or introduced as evidence in any legal proceeding, except to enforce or challenge its terms.

     9.      Acknowledgements . Executive is advised to consult with an attorney of his choice prior to executing this Agreement. By signing below, Executive acknowledges and certifies that he:

          (a)     has read and understands all of the terms of this Agreement and is not relying on any representations or statements, written or oral, not set forth in this Agreement;

          (b)     has been provided a consideration period of twenty-one (21) calendar days within which to decide whether he will execute this Agreement and that no one hurried him into executing this Agreement;

          (c)     is signing this Agreement knowingly and voluntarily; and

          (d)     has the right to revoke this Agreement within seven (7) days after signing it, by providing written notice of revocation via certified mail to the Company to the address specified in the Employment Agreement. Executive’s written notice of revocation must be postmarked on or before the end of the eighth (8th) calendar day after he has timely signed this Agreement. This deadline will be extended to the next business day should it fall on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday recognized by the U.S. Postal Service.

          Because of the revocation period, the Company’s obligations under this Agreement shall not become effective or enforceable until the eighth (8th) calendar day after the date Executive signs this Agreement provided he has delivered it to the Company without modification and not revoked it (the “Effective Date”).
