Item 2. Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.
On June 8, 1998, American Tower Corporation (formerly American Tower Systems
Corporation, the "Company") consummated the transactions contemplated by the
Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") by and between American
Tower Systems Corporation, a Delaware Corporation, and American Tower

as amended as of June 5, 1998, whereby ATC was merged (the "Merger") with and
into the Company. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company issued
30,034,750 shares of Class A Common Stock (including options to purchase
1,252,364 shares) and borrowed approximately $57.0 million under the Company's
credit agreement. The Company paid off approximately $118.3 million of assumed
debt and $4.5 million of redeemable preferred stock assumed in connection with
the Merger. Upon consummation of the Merger, the Company changed its name from
American Tower Systems Corporation to American Tower Corporation.
Immediately following the Merger, Fred R. Lummis, the Chief Executive Officer
and President of ATC, and Randall Mays, the Chief Financial Officer and an
Executive Vice President of Clear Channel Communications, Inc. were elected to
the Board of Directors of the Company and Joseph L. Winn, the Company's Chief
Financial Officer and Treasurer, resigned as a director of the Company.
ATC is a leading independent owner and operator of wireless Communications
towers with approximately 900 towers (including pending acquisitions of
approximately 60 towers) in 32 states, of which approximately 125 towers are
managed for a third party owner.
See Item 7. below for financial statement and exhibit information.
Item 5. Other Events.
On June 5, 1998, the Company became listed on the New York Stock Exchange under
the symbol "AMT", as a result of a distribution of its shares by its former
parent, American Radio Systems Corporation, which completed its merger with CBS
Corporation as of June 4, 1998.
On June 4, 1998, the Company privately placed shares of it Series Redeemable
Pay-In-Kind Preferred Stock, having an initial liquidation preference of $300.0
million (the "Interim Preferred Stock"), to certain institutional investors in
order to finance the Company's obligation to CBS Corporation with respect to the
CBS merger tax reimbursement. Proceeds of the public equity offering described
below will be used to redeem the Interim Preferred Stock at a price equal to
101% of the then aggregate liquidation preference together with accrued and
unpaid dividends.

On May 12, 1998, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(the "Commission") a registration statement relating to the offering (the
"Offering") of an aggregate of 23,619,871 shares of Class A Common Stock, of
which 20,000,000 shares are to be sold on behalf of the Company. Proceeds of the
Company's offering will be used to redeem the Interim Preferred Stock that was
issued on June 4, 1998, and to reduce bank borrowings. The Offering is subject
to various conditions, including prevailing market conditions. The registration
statement relating to these securities has been filed with the Commission but
has not yet become effective. These securities may not be sold nor may offers to
buy be accepted prior to the time the registration statement becomes effective.
This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of
an offer to buy nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state in
which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration
or qualification under the securities laws of any such state. Copies of the
Prospectus relating to the Offering may be obtained from Credit Suisse First
Boston, Prospectus Department, 11 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10010,

of WIT, pursuant to which ATSI acquired substantially all the assets of WIT for
