The board of directors of Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod have agreed to sell 100kw Classical KFOU-FM (99.1)/St. Louis. According to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, the 61-year-old classical music outlet is being purchased by Gateway Creative Broadcasting, for $18 million plus $8 million in interest over a 10-year term.

According to sources close to the Synod's board of directors, Gateway will pay $150,000 immediately, $1.35 million at closing, an additional $1.5 million in interest and amortization in the fourth year, and the remainder in the tenth year.
LCMS treasurer Tom Kuchta and board member Kermit Brashear, an Omaha lawyer and politician, handled the sale. Brashear handled the negotiations. (10-06-09)
