Total shares used for calculation of diluted earnings per common share 10,332,436 16,352,307
================== ==================
</TABLE>
Basic earnings per common share amounts are based on net income, after
deducting preferred stock dividend requirements, divided by the weighted average
number of shares of Class A and Class B Common Stock outstanding during the
year. The total shares used for the calculation of diluted earnings per common
share were not adjusted for securities that have not been issued as they are
antidilutive.
For the three months ended March 31, 1998 and 1999, net loss per common
share was determined by dividing net loss, as adjusted by the aggregate amount
of dividends on the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, approximately $3.6
million and $4.0 million, respectively, by applicable shares outstanding.

9. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities:
Legal Matters:
In connection with the pending license renewal application of one of
the Company's television stations, it has come to the attention of the Company
that, at that station, there were violations of the FCC's rules establishing
limits on the amount of commercial material in programs directed to children.
The Company was notified that is has been sued in Indiana for allegedly
charging DBS subscribers excessive fees for late payments. The plaintiffs, who
purport to represent a class consisting of residential DIRECTV customers in
Indiana, seek unspecified damages for the purported class and modification of
the Company's late-fee policy. The Company is advised that similar suits have
been brought against DIRECTV and various cable operators in other parts of the
United States.
From time to time the Company is involved with claims that arise in the
normal course of business.
In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect to
the aforementioned claims and matters will not have a material adverse effect on
the consolidated operations, liquidity, cash flows or financial position of the
Company.

2006 (the "9.75% Series B Notes"). The 9.75% Series B Notes have substantially
the same terms and provisions as the 9.75% Series A Notes.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS
This Report contains certain forward-looking statements (as such term
is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) and
information relating to us that are based on the beliefs of our management, as
well as assumptions made by and information currently available to our
management. When used in this Report, the words "estimate," "project,"
"believe," "anticipate," "intend," "expect" and similar expressions are intended
to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect our current
views with respect to future events and are subject to unknown risks,
uncertainties and other factors that may cause actual results to differ
materially from those contemplated in such forward-looking statements. Such
factors include, among other things, the following: general economic and
business conditions, both nationally, internationally and in the regions in
which we operate; demographic changes; existing government regulations and
changes in, or the failure to comply with government regulations; competition;
the loss of any significant numbers of subscribers or viewers; changes in
business strategy or development plans; technological developments and
difficulties (including any associated with the Year 2000); the ability to
attract and retain qualified personnel; our significant indebtedness; the
availability and terms of capital to fund the expansion of our businesses; and
other factors referenced in this Report. Readers are cautioned not to place
undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as the date
hereof. We do not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to
these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the
date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.
The following discussion of the financial condition and results of
operations of Pegasus should be read in conjunction with the consolidated
financial statements and related notes which are included on pages 3-10 herein.
General
Pegasus Communications Corporation is:
o The largest independent provider of DIRECTV with 503,000 subscribers
at April 30, 1999. We have the exclusive right to distribute DIRECTV
digital broadcast satellite services to 4.8 million rural households
in 35 states. We distribute DIRECTV through the Pegasus retail
network, a network of approximately 2,000 independent retailers.
o The owner or programmer of nine TV stations affiliated with either
Fox, UPN or the WB and the owner of a large cable system in Puerto
Rico serving approximately 50,000 subscribers.
DBS revenues are principally derived from monthly customer
subscriptions and pay-per-view services. Broadcast revenues are derived from the
sale of broadcast airtime to local and national advertisers. Cable revenues are
derived from monthly customer subscriptions, pay-per-view services, subscriber
equipment rentals and installation charges.
In this section we use the terms pre-marketing cash flow and location
cash flow. Pre-marketing cash flow is calculated by taking our earnings and
adding back the following expenses:
o interest;
o income taxes;
o depreciation and amortization;
o non-cash charges;
o corporate overhead; and
11
<PAGE>
o DBS subscriber acquisition costs, which are sales and marketing
expenses incurred to acquire new DBS subscribers.
Location cash flow is pre-marketing cash flow less DBS subscriber
acquisition costs.
Pre-marketing cash flow and location cash flow are not, and should not
be considered, alternatives to income from operations, net income, net cash
provided by operating activities or any other measure for determining our
operating performance or liquidity, as determined under generally accepted
accounting principles. Pre-marketing cash flow and location cash flow also do
not necessarily indicate whether our cash flow will be sufficient to fund
working capital, capital expenditures, or to react to changes in Pegasus'
industry or the economy generally. We believe that pre-marketing cash flow and
location cash flow are important, however, for the following reasons:
o those who follow our industry frequently use them as measures of
financial performance and ability to pay debt service; and
o they are measures that our lenders, investors and we use to monitor
our financial performance and debt leverage.
Pegasus generally does not require new DBS customers to sign
programming contracts and, as a result, subscriber acquisition costs are
currently being charged to operations in the period incurred.
Results of Operations
Three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to three months ended March 31, 1998
Total net revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $69.4
million, an increase of $40.6 million, or 141%, compared to total net revenues
of $28.8 million for the same period in 1998. The increase in total net revenues
for the three months ended March 31, 1999 was primarily due to an increase in
DBS revenues of $40.9 million attributable to acquisitions and to internal
growth in Pegasus' DBS subscriber base. Total operating expenses for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 were $96.1 million, an increase of $61.0 million, or
174%, compared to total operating expenses of $35.1 million for the same period
in 1998. The increase was primarily due to an increase of $60.1 million in
operating expenses attributable to the growth in Pegasus' DBS business.
Total corporate expenses, including corporate depreciation and
amortization, were $2.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999, an
increase of $851,000, or 77%, compared to $1.1 million for the same period in
1998. The increase in corporate expenses is attributable to the growth in
Pegasus' business. The increase in corporate depreciation and amortization is
primarily due to amortization of deferred financing costs associated with the
issuance of $100.0 million of senior notes in November 1998.
Interest expense was $15.7 million for the three months ended March 31,
1999, an increase of $9.7 million, or 163%, compared to interest expense of $6.0
million for the same period in 1998. The increase in interest expense is
primarily due to interest on Pegasus' $100.0 million senior notes issued in
November 1998, Digital Television Service Inc.'s $155.0 million senior notes,
which were assumed by Pegasus in April 1998, and an increase in bank borrowings
and sellers' notes associated with Pegasus' DBS acquisitions. Interest income
was $461,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $115,000,
or 33%, compared to interest income of $346,000 for the same period in 1998. The
increase in interest income is due to greater average cash balances for the
three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to the same period in 1998.
Other expenses were $351,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999,
a decrease of $1,000 compared to other expenses of $352,000 for the same period
in 1998.
The provision for income taxes declined by approximately $518,000
primarily as a result of the amortization of the deferred tax liability that
originated from the acquisition of Digital Television Services, Inc.
12
<PAGE>
Preferred stock dividends were $4.0 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, an increase of $471,000, or 13%, compared to $3.6 million in
preferred stock dividends for the same period in 1998. The increase is
attributable to a greater number of shares of Pegasus' preferred stock
outstanding during the first quarter of 1999 compared to the first quarter of
1998 as the result of payment of dividends in preferred stock.
DBS
Pegasus' DBS business has experienced significant growth. During the
last twelve months, Pegasus acquired approximately 218,000 subscribers and the
exclusive DIRECTV distribution rights to approximately 2.5 million households in
rural areas of the United States. At March 31, 1999, Pegasus had exclusive
DIRECTV distribution rights to 4.8 million households and 481,000 subscribers as
compared to 2.3 million households and 154,000 subscribers at March 31, 1998.
Pegasus had 4.9 million households and 505,000 subscribers at March 31, 1999,
including pending acquisitions. At March 31, 1998, subscribers would have been
384,000, including pending and completed acquisitions. Subscriber penetration
increased from 7.8% at March 31, 1998 to 10.3% at March 31, 1999, including
pending and completed acquisitions.
Total DBS net revenues were $58.3 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, an increase of $40.9 million, or 234%, compared to DBS net
revenues of $17.5 million for the same period in 1998. The increase is primarily
due to an increase in the average number of subscribers in the first quarter of
1999 compared to the first quarter of 1998. The average monthly revenue per
subscriber was $43.12 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to
$41.91 for the same period in 1998. Pro forma DBS net revenues, including
pending acquisitions at March 31, 1999, were $62.6 million, an increase of $16.3
million, or 35%, compared to pro forma DBS net revenues of $46.3 million for the
same period in 1998.
Programming, technical, and general and administrative expenses were
$40.5 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $28.3
million, or 232%, compared to $12.2 million for the same period in 1998. The
increase is attributable to significant growth in subscribers and territory
during the last twelve months. As a percentage of revenue, programming,
technical, and general and administrative expenses were 69.5% for the three
months ended March 31, 1999 compared to 69.8% for the same period in 1998.
Subscriber acquisition costs were $21.1 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $16.9 million compared to $4.2 million for
the same period in 1998. The total subscriber acquisition costs per gross
subscriber addition were $410 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared
to $283 for the same period in 1998. The increase is principally due to an
increase in promotional programming.
Incentive compensation, which is calculated based on increases in pro
forma location cash flow, was $390,000 for the three months ended March 31,
1999, an increase of $30,000, or 8%, compared to $360,000 for the same period in
1998. The increase resulted from a larger gain in pro forma location cash flow
during the first quarter of 1999 as compared to the first quarter of 1998.
Depreciation and amortization was $21.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $14.8 million, or 223%, compared to $6.6
million for the same period in 1998. The increase in depreciation and
amortization is primarily due to an increase in the fixed and intangible asset
base as the result of DBS acquisitions that occurred during the last two years.
Broadcast
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, Pegasus owned or
programmed nine broadcast television stations in six markets. Two new stations
were launched during the second half of 1998. Total net broadcast revenues for
the three months ended March 31, 1999 were $7.9 million, an increase of $1.0
million, or 15%, compared to net broadcast revenues of $6.9 million for the same
period in 1998. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase of
$340,000 in net broadcast revenues from the four stations launched in 1997 and
1998, a $229,000 increase in barter revenue and an increase in local advertising
sales.
13
<PAGE>
Programming, technical, and general and administrative expenses were
$4.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $1.1
million, or 28%, compared to $3.9 million for the same period in 1998. The
increase is primarily due to an increase in expenses from the two new stations
launched in 1998 and an increase in news related expenses associated with the
launch of self-produced news in our Portland, Maine and Chattanooga, Tennessee
markets.
Marketing and selling expenses were $1.5 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, an increase of $82,000, or 6%, compared to $1.4 million
for the same period in 1998. The increase in marketing and selling expenses was
due to an increase in promotional costs associated with the launch of the new
stations and news programs.
Incentive compensation, which is calculated based on increases in pro
forma location cash flow, was $156,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999
compared to no incentive compensation for the same period in 1998. The incentive
compensation resulted from a gain in pro forma location cash flow during the
first quarter of 1999 as compared to a loss in the first quarter of 1998.
Depreciation and amortization was $1.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, a decrease of $140,000, or 11%, compared to $1.3 million
for the same period in 1998.
Cable
Total net cable revenues were $3.1 million for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 30%, compared to net cable
revenues of $4.4 million for the same period in 1998. The decrease is primarily
due to the sale of Pegasus' New England cable systems effective July 1, 1998.
Net cable revenues from the New England Cable systems were $1.6 million for the
three months ended March 31, 1998. The net revenues derived from Pegasus' Puerto
Rico cable system were $3.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999,
an increase of $275,000, or 10%, compared to net cable revenues of $2.8 million
for the same period in 1998. The average monthly revenue per subscriber was
$35.15 for the three months ended March 31, 1999 compared to $33.71 for the same
period in 1998. On a pro forma basis, including the completed acquisition of the
Aguadilla, Puerto Rico cable system and the disposition of the New England cable
systems, there were 50,200 subscribers as of March 31, 1999 compared to 49,300
subscribers as of March 31, 1998.
Programming, technical, and general and administrative expenses were
$1.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999, a decrease of $631,000,
or 28%, compared to $2.3 million for the same period in 1998. The decrease is
primarily attributable to the sale of Pegasus' New England cable systems.
Marketing and selling expenses were $109,000 for the three months ended
March 31, 1999, an increase of $2,000, or 2%, compared to $107,000 for the same
period in 1998.
Incentive compensation, which is calculated based on increases in pro
forma location cash flow, was $23,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999,
a decrease of $26,000, or 53%, compared to $49,000 for the same period in 1998.
The decrease resulted from a lower gain in pro forma location cash flow during
the first quarter of 1999 as compared to the first quarter of 1998.
Depreciation and amortization was $1.1 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999, a decrease of $458,000, or 30%, compared to $1.5 million
for the same period in 1998. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is
primarily due to the sale of Pegasus' New England cable systems.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Pegasus' primary sources of liquidity have been the net cash provided
by its DBS, broadcast and cable operations, credit available under its credit
facilities and proceeds from public and private offerings. Pegasus' principal
use of its cash has been to fund acquisitions, to meet debt service obligations,
to fund DBS subscriber acquisition costs and to fund investments in its
broadcast and cable technical facilities.
14
<PAGE>
Pre-marketing cash flow increased by approximately $11.7 million, or
131%, for the three months ended March 31, 1999 as compared to the same period
in 1998. Pre-marketing cash flow increased as a result of:
o a $12.5 million, or 238%, increase in DBS pre-marketing cash flow of
which $2.2 million, or 17%, was due to an increase in same territory
pre-marketing cash flow and $10.4 million, or 83%, was attributable
to territories acquired in 1998 and 1999;
o a $122,000, or 7%, decrease in broadcast location cash flow as the
result of a $59,000, or 4%, increase in same station location cash
flow and a $181,000 decrease attributable to the two new stations
launched in July 1998 and November 1998; and
o a $694,000, or 35%, decrease in cable location cash flow. This
decrease was the net result of a $76,000, or 6%, increase in Puerto
Rico same system location cash flow and a $770,000 reduction due to
the sale of Pegasus' New England cable systems effective July 1,
1998.
During the three months ended March 31, 1999, $54.5 million of cash on
hand at the beginning of the year, together with $54.8 million of net cash
provided by Pegasus' financing activities, was used to fund operating activities
of approximately $18.9 million and investing activities of $69.7 million.
Investing activities consisted of:
o the purchase of a cable system serving Aguadilla, Puerto Rico and
neighboring communities for approximately $42.1 million;
o the acquisition of DBS assets from six independent DIRECTV providers
during the first quarter of 1999 for approximately $23.7 million;
o broadcast expenditures associated with the launch of self-produced
news in our Portland, Maine and Chattanooga, Tennessee markets
totaling $428,000;
o DBS facility upgrades of $376,000;
o the expansion and enhancements of the Puerto Rico cable system
amounting to $600,000, including $213,000 related to hurricane
damage;
o payments of programming rights amounting to $735,000;
o capitalized costs relating to Pegasus' financing of approximately
$1.5 million;
o proceeds from the sale of DBS assets to an independent DIRECTV
provider for $509,000; and
o maintenance and other capital expenditures and intangibles totaling
$792,000.
Financing activities consisted of:
o the issuance of approximately 3.6 million shares of Class A common
stock resulting in net proceeds to Pegasus of approximately $74.9
million;
o net repayments of bank credit facilities totaling $19.7 million;
o the repayment of approximately $10.9 million of long-term debt,
primarily sellers' notes and capital leases; and
o net restricted cash draws of approximately $9.5 million for interest
payments and $1.0 million in connection with the acquisition of the
Aguadilla, Puerto Rico cable system.
15
<PAGE>
As of March 31, 1999, cash on hand amounted to $20.8 million plus
restricted cash of $11.0 million.
Pegasus Media & Communications maintains a $180.0 million senior,
reducing revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the credit facility are
available for acquisitions, subject to the approval of the lenders in certain
circumstances, working capital, capital expenditures and for general corporate
purposes. As of March 31, 1999, $4.0 million was outstanding and stand-by
letters of credit amounting to $30.9 million were issued under its $180.0
million credit facility. The credit facility expires in December 2003.
Digital Television Services maintains a $70.0 million senior, reducing
revolving credit facility and a $20.0 million senior term credit facility.
Borrowings under the credit facilities are available to refinance certain
indebtedness and for acquisitions, subject to the approval of the lenders in
certain circumstances, working capital, capital expenditures and for general
corporate purposes. As of March 31, 1999, $50.2 million was outstanding and
stand-by letters of credit amounting to $18.5 million were issued under its
$90.0 million credit facilities. The credit facilities expire in July 2003.
In March 1999, Pegasus completed its secondary public offering in which
it sold approximately 3.6 million shares of its Class A Common Stock to the
public at a price of $22.00 per share, resulting in net proceeds to Pegasus of
approximately $74.9 million. Pegasus applied $49.9 million of the net proceeds
to pay down indebtedness under the Pegasus Media & Communications credit
facility and $25.0 million towards the acquisition of the cable system serving
Aguadilla, Puerto Rico and neighboring communities.
As defined in the Certificate of Designation governing Pegasus' Series
A Preferred Stock and the indentures governing Pegasus' senior notes, Pegasus is
required to provide Adjusted Operating Cash Flow data for Pegasus and its
Restricted Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis where Adjusted Operating Cash
Flow is defined as "for the four most recent fiscal quarters for which internal
financial statements are available, Operating Cash Flow of such Person and its
Restricted Subsidiaries less DBS Cash Flow for the most recent four-quarter
period plus DBS Cash Flow for the most recent quarterly period, multiplied by
four." Operating Cash Flow is income from operations before income taxes,
depreciation and amortization, interest expense, extraordinary items and
non-cash charges. Although Adjusted Operating Cash Flow is not a measure of
performance under generally accepted accounting principles, we believe that
Location Cash Flow, Operating Cash Flow and Adjusted Operating Cash Flow are
accepted within our business segments as generally recognized measures of
performance and are used by analysts who report publicly on the performance of
companies operating in such segments. Restricted Subsidiaries carries the same
meaning as in the Certificate of Designation. Digital Television Services, Inc.,
among certain other Pegasus' subsidiaries, are not included in the definition of
Restricted Subsidiaries and, accordingly, their operating results are not
included in the Adjusted Operating Cash Flow data provided below. Pro forma for
the acquisition of the Aguadilla, Puerto Rico cable system, the six completed
DBS acquisitions occurring in the first quarter of 1999 and the sale of our New
England cable systems, as if such acquisitions/disposition occurred on April 1,
1998, Adjusted Operating Cash Flow would have been approximately $56.7 million
as follows:

Pegasus believes that it has adequate resources to meet its working
capital, maintenance capital expenditure and debt service obligations for at
least the next twelve months. However, Pegasus is highly leveraged and our
ability in the future to repay our existing indebtedness will depend upon the
success of our business strategy, prevailing economic conditions, regulatory
matters, levels of interest rates and financial, business and other factors that
are beyond our control. We cannot assure you that we will be able to generate
the substantial increases in cash flow from operations that we will need to meet
the obligations under our indebtedness. Furthermore, our agreements with respect
to our indebtedness contain numerous covenants that, among other things:
o restrict our ability to pay dividends and make certain other payments
and investments;
o borrow additional funds;
o create liens; and
o to sell our assets.
Failure to make debt payments or comply with our covenants could result in an
event of default which if not cured or waived could have a material adverse
effect on us.
Pegasus closely monitors conditions in the capital markets to identify
opportunities for the effective use of financial leverage. In financing its
future expansion and acquisition requirements, Pegasus would expect to avail
itself of such opportunities and thereby increase its indebtedness. This could
result in increased debt service requirements. We cannot assure you that such
debt financing can be completed on terms satisfactory to Pegasus or at all.
Pegasus may also issue additional equity to fund its future expansion and
acquisition requirements.
Year 2000
The year 2000 issue is a general term used to describe the various
problems that may result from the improper processing of dates and
date-sensitive calculations by computers and other equipment as the year 2000
approaches and is reached. These problems generally arise from the fact that
most computer hardware and software have historically used only two digits to
identify the year in a date, often resulting in the computer failing to
distinguish dates in the 2000s from dates in the 1900s. These problems may also
arise from additional sources, such as the use of special codes and conventions
in software utilizing the date field.
Pegasus has reviewed all of its systems as to the year 2000 issue.
Pegasus' primary focus has been on its own internal systems. Pegasus has in the
past three years replaced or upgraded, or is in the process of replacing or
upgrading, all of its TV traffic systems, cable billing systems and corporate
accounting systems. All of these new systems are expected to be in place by May
31, 1999. However, if any necessary changes are not made or completed in a
timely fashion or unanticipated problems arise, the year 2000 issue may take
longer for Pegasus to address and may have a material adverse impact on Pegasus'
financial condition and its results of operations.
Pegasus relies on outside vendors for the operation of its DBS
satellite control and billing systems, including DIRECTV, the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative and their respective vendors. Pegasus has
established a policy to ensure that these vendors are currently in compliance
with the year 2000 issue or have a plan in place to be in compliance with the
year 2000 issue by the first quarter of 1999. In addition, Pegasus has had
initial communications with certain of its other significant suppliers,
distributors, financial institutions, lessors and parties with which it conducts
business to evaluate their year 2000 compliance plans and state of readiness and
to determine the extent to which Pegasus' systems may be affected by the failure
of others to remediate their own year 2000 issues. To date, however, Pegasus has
received only preliminary feedback from such parties and has not independently
confirmed any information received from other parties with respect to the year
2000 issue. As such, we cannot assure you that these other parties will complete
their year 2000 conversion in a timely fashion or will not suffer a year 2000
business disruption that may adversely affect Pegasus' financial condition and
its results of operations.
17
<PAGE>
Because Pegasus' year 2000 conversion is expected to be completed prior
to any potential disruption to Pegasus' business, Pegasus has not yet completed
the development of a comprehensive year 2000-specific contingency plan. However,
as part of its year 2000 contingency planning effort, Pegasus examines
information received from external sources for date integrity before bringing it
into its internal systems. If Pegasus determines that its business or a segment
thereof is at material risk of disruption due to the year 2000 issue or
anticipates that its year 2000 conversion will not be completed in a timely
fashion, it will work to enhance its contingency plan. Costs to date relating to
the year 2000 issue amounted to approximately $200,000. Costs to be incurred
beyond March 31, 1999, relating to the year 2000 issue are expected to be
approximately $150,000.
Dividend Policy
As a holding company, Pegasus' ability to pay dividends is dependent
upon the receipt of dividends from its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Credit
facilities and publicly held debt securities of Pegasus' principal subsidiaries
restrict them from paying dividends to Pegasus. In addition, Pegasus' ability to
pay dividends and Pegasus' and its subsidiaries' ability to incur indebtedness
are subject to certain restrictions contained in Pegasus' and its subsidiaries'
credit facilities and publicly held debt securities and in the terms of Pegasus'
Series A preferred stock.
Seasonality
Pegasus' revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the
broadcast television industry, Pegasus' first quarter generally produces the
lowest revenues for the year and the fourth quarter generally produces the
highest revenues for the year. Pegasus' operating results in any period may be
affected by the incurrence of advertising and promotion expenses that do not
necessarily produce commensurate revenues in the short-term until the impact of
such advertising and promotion is realized in future periods.
Inflation
Pegasus believes that inflation has not been a material factor
affecting its business. In general, Pegasus' revenues and expenses are impacted
to the same extent by inflation. A majority of Pegasus' indebtedness bears
interest at a fixed rate.

ITEM 2. CHANGES IN SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS
On April 13, 1999, Pegasus issued warrants to purchase 25,000 shares of
its Class A Common Stock as partial consideration for the acquisition of DIRECTV
rights and related assets from an independent provider of DIRECTV in certain
rural portions of Nebraska. The warrants are exercisable on or before April 13,
2004 at a price of $24.1771 per share, subject to certain adjustments. In
issuing the warrants, Pegasus relied upon exemption from registration set forth
in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
