OVERVIEW

We are the fifth largest radio broadcasting company in the United States
based on pro forma 1998 gross revenues. We have assembled, after giving effect
to our pending acquisition of 46 stations from various subsidiaries of Sinclair
Broadcast Group, Inc., a nationwide portfolio of 88 owned or operated stations.
This portfolio consists of 56 FM and 32 AM stations in 16 markets, including 12
of the country's top 50 markets. Our station groups rank among the three largest
clusters, based on gross revenues, in 15 of our 16 markets. On a pro forma
basis, we would have had net revenues of $301.9 million, operating income of
$51.2 million and a pro forma loss before extraordinary item of $0.4 million for
the twelve months ended June 30, 1999. In addition, pro forma broadcast cash
flow during the same period would have been $107.7 million.

Our net revenues and broadcast cash flow have grown significantly on both a
total and same station basis. Net revenues grew at a compound annual rate of
96.8% from an actual $35.9 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $273.8 million
in fiscal 1998. Broadcast cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of 98.0% from
an actual $11.8 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $91.6 million in fiscal
1998. During this same period, our same station net revenues and broadcast cash
flow grew at average annual rates of 15.0% and 36.4%, respectively. In addition,
our pro forma after-tax cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of 124.9% from
an actual $4.5 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $51.2 million in fiscal
1998.

SINCLAIR ACQUISITION

In August 1999, we agreed with Sinclair to purchase 46 radio stations, 15
AM and 31 FM, in nine markets, including seven of the country's top 50 markets.
The purchase price for the Sinclair acquisition is $824.5 million. In connection
with the Sinclair acquisition, federal broadcasting regulations will require us
to divest three stations in the Kansas City market, where we already own seven
stations and Sinclair owns four stations. To comply with these regulations, we
plan to swap three Kansas City stations for stations in other markets, or if we
are unable to do so, we will sell three stations for cash or pursue a
combination of swaps and sales. As a result of the required Kansas City
dispositions, our portfolio of stations could be reduced to 85. We expect to
consummate the Sinclair acquisition in the last quarter of 1999; however, we
cannot assure you that we will be able to do so.

As a result of the Sinclair acquisition, we will serve eight new markets,
six of which are new top 50 markets. These eight new markets will complement our
current station portfolio by greatly increasing its diversity and national
reach. Due to this increased diversity, we will have reduced significantly our
reliance on any single market. Furthermore, we believe that many of the Sinclair
radio stations are underdeveloped and offer substantial growth potential.
1
<PAGE> 5

OUR STATION PORTFOLIO

Our current portfolio of stations includes a significant number of recently
acquired stations that we believe are underdeveloped. We believe that these
underdeveloped stations offer the opportunity for substantial broadcast cash
flow growth. In the aggregate, the 33 stations which we commenced operating on
or after January 1, 1997 operated at a broadcast cash flow margin of 27.4%
during the twelve months ended June 30, 1999. By comparison, in the aggregate,
the nine stations which we commenced operating prior to 1997 operated at a
broadcast cash flow margin of 48.2% during the twelve months ended June 30,
1999.

The following table sets forth selected information about the markets where
we operate and where we expect to operate following the Sinclair acquisition.
The Sinclair markets are denoted with an asterisk (*), except for the Kansas
City market where we expect to acquire four additional stations from Sinclair.
However, the table does not give effect to the required disposition of three
stations in Kansas City which we are seeking to swap for stations in other
markets; therefore, we have not listed 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Share for
Kansas City. Giving effect to this disposition, which will leave us with a total
of eight stations in Kansas City, 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Share in Kansas
City will decline, although we believe that 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Rank
will remain unchanged. You should refer to the "Business" section for further
information about our station portfolio.

OUR ACQUISITION STRATEGY

Since October 1, 1996, in over 20 transactions including the Sinclair
acquisition, which we expect to consummate in the last quarter of 1999, we have
acquired or agreed to acquire 83 radio stations and have divested or will
divest, for strategic or regulatory reasons, 14 radio stations. Through our
disciplined acquisition strategy, we seek to (1) build top-three station
clusters principally in large growth markets and (2) acquire underdeveloped
properties that offer the potential for significant improvements in revenues and
broadcast cash flow through the application of our operational, administrative
and engineering expertise. Although our focus has been on radio stations in top
50 markets, we also consider acquiring stations in top 75 markets to the extent
we believe we can apply our acquisition strategy in those markets.

OUR OPERATING STRATEGY

The principal components of our operating strategy are to:

- DEVELOP MARKET LEADING STATION CLUSTERS. To enhance our competitive
position, we strategically align our stations' formats and sales efforts
within each market in an effort to optimize their performance, both
individually and collectively. We seek to maximize the ratings, revenue
and broadcast cash flow of our radio stations by tailoring their
programming to optimize aggregate audience delivery.

- ACQUIRE AND DEVELOP UNDERPERFORMING STATIONS. We seek to acquire and
develop underperforming stations, which has enabled us to build a
long-term track record of achieving superior same station revenue and
broadcast cash flow growth.

- BUILD STRONGLY-BRANDED FRANCHISES. We analyze market research and
competitive factors to identify the format opportunity, music selection
and rotation, presentation and other key programming attributes that we
believe will best position each station to develop a distinctive identity
and to strengthen the stations' local "brand" or "franchise" value.

- LEVERAGE STATION CLUSTERS TO CAPTURE GREATER SHARE OF ADVERTISING
REVENUE. We believe radio will continue to gain revenue share from other
media as a result of deregulation in the broadcasting industry, which
allows broadcasters to create larger clusters in their markets and offers
advertisers a means to cost-effectively reach larger audiences. We have
begun to capitalize on this opportunity by developing specialized teams
in many of our markets to work with non-traditional radio advertisers to
create and develop marketing programs and solutions.

- MAXIMIZE TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES. We seek to operate stations with the
strongest signals in their respective markets. In addition, on various
occasions we have identified opportunities to upgrade low-powered or
out-of-market stations and transform them into competitive signals, thus
increasing their value significantly. For example, in 1998 we sold our
two Tampa FM stations, which we had purchased for an aggregate of $4.9
million, for $75.0 million after upgrading their license classes.

OTHER FINANCINGS

Concurrently with this offering, we and a trust we own are selling $125
million in stated liquidation amount of TIDES by means of a separate prospectus.
We expect that the net proceeds from the TIDES offering will be approximately
$120.3 million. This offering and the TIDES offering are not contingent on each
other.

In addition, we are seeking to replace or amend our current credit facility
to permit consummation of the Sinclair acquisition and to significantly expand
our borrowing capacity. Entercom Communications Corp., the parent company, is
currently the borrower under our current credit facility, and our subsidiaries
guarantee Entercom's obligations. When we enter into an amended or replacement
credit facility, we expect that a newly formed subsidiary will become the
borrower under this facility and that all of our station-operating subsidiaries
will become subsidiaries of this entity and guarantee its obligations. We also
expect that Entercom will guarantee those obligations on a senior secured basis.
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and the TIDES offering,
together with cash on hand and proceeds from an amended or replacement credit
facility, to finance the Sinclair acquisition.

For financial reporting purposes, we will treat the trust as one of our
subsidiaries. Accordingly, we will include the accounts of the trust in our
consolidated financial statements. We will present the TIDES as a separate line
item in our consolidated balance sheet entitled "Entercom-obligated mandatorily
redeemable convertible preferred securities of Entercom Communications Capital
Trust," and we will include appropriate disclosures about the TIDES in the notes
to our consolidated financial statements. For financial reporting purposes, we
will record distributions payable on the TIDES as a financing charge to earnings
in our consolidated statement of income.

SUMMARY HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA

We have derived the summary operating data shown below for the years ended
September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998 and the balance sheet data shown below as of
September 30, 1997 and 1998 from our audited consolidated financial statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus. We have derived the balance sheet data
shown below as of September 30, 1996 from our audited financial statements,
which are not included in this prospectus. We have derived the summary operating
data shown below for the three months ended December 31, 1997, the three month
transition period ended December 31, 1998 and the six months ended June 30, 1998
and 1999 and the balance sheet data shown below as of December 31, 1998 and June
30, 1999 from our unaudited financial statements included elsewhere in this
prospectus. We have derived the balance sheet data shown below as of December
31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 from our unaudited financial statements, which are
not included in this prospectus.

As you review the information contained in the following table and
throughout this prospectus, you should note the following:

- Historically, we operated with an October 1st to September 30th fiscal
year. Effective January 1, 1999, we changed for financial reporting
purposes from a fiscal year ending September 30th to a fiscal year ending
December 31st. Accordingly, the summary historical financial data
includes information as of, and for the three month transition period
ended, December 31, 1998 and the three months ended December 31, 1997.

- We retroactively restated our fiscal 1997 and 1998 consolidated financial
statements to reflect a $25.0 million convertible subordinated promissory
note held by an affiliate of Chase Capital Partners as an indexed debt
instrument. We determined the adjustment as of the end of each relevant
period by subtracting the sum of principal and accrued interest on the
note from the fair value of the shares of our common stock into which the
note was convertible. Immediately prior to our initial public offering in
January 1999, Chase Capital converted the note in its entirety into
2,327,500 shares of our Class A common stock and 1,995,669 shares of our
Class C common stock. Accordingly, this note is no longer outstanding.

- Before completing our initial public offering, we were a Subchapter S
corporation under the Internal Revenue Code, and accordingly, we were not
liable for federal and certain state corporate income taxes. Instead, our
shareholders included our taxable income or loss in their federal and
those state income tax returns. Immediately before our initial public
offering, we became a C corporation, and accordingly, we are now subject
to federal and state corporate income taxes. The pro forma amounts shown
in the table reflect provisions for state and federal income taxes,
applied to income before income taxes and extraordinary item, as if we
had been taxed as a C corporation. These pro forma amounts do not include
the effect of the adjustment to reflect indexing of the Chase Capital
convertible subordinated note because the amount of this adjustment is
not tax deductible.

- As a result of our becoming a C corporation immediately prior to our
initial public offering, generally accepted accounting principles
required us to provide for deferred income taxes of $79.8 million to
reflect the cumulative temporary differences between book and income tax
bases of our assets and liabilities.

- For purposes of our historical financial statements, the term "pro forma"
refers solely to the adjustments necessary to reflect our status as a C
corporation rather
6
<PAGE> 10

than an S corporation. It does not refer to any of the other adjustments
described under "Summary Pro Forma Financial Information" and "Unaudited
Pro Forma Financial Information."

- All per share data gives effect to our recapitalization, which we
consummated immediately prior to our initial public offering. In the
recapitalization, we effected a 185 for one stock split and the exchange
of our prior common stock for Class A common stock and Class B common
stock.

- Broadcast cash flow consists of operating income before depreciation and
amortization, corporate general and administrative expenses and net
expense (income) from time brokerage agreement fees.

- Broadcast cash flow margin represents broadcast cash flow as a percentage
of net revenues.

- EBITDA before net expense (income) from time brokerage agreement fees
consists of operating income before depreciation and amortization,
non-cash compensation expense (which is included in corporate general and
administration expenses) and net expense (income) from time brokerage
agreement fees.

- Pro forma after-tax cash flow consists of pro forma income before
extraordinary item minus gains on sale of assets (net of tax) plus the
following: depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense
(which is included in corporate general and administrative expenses),
adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note and
deferred tax provision (or minus deferred tax benefit).

Although broadcast cash flow, EBITDA before net expense (income) from time
brokerage agreement fees and pro forma after-tax cash flow are not measures of
performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, we believe that these measures are useful to an investor
in evaluating our performance because they are widely used in the broadcast
industry to measure a radio company's operating performance. However, you should
not consider broadcast cash flow, EBITDA before net expense (income) from time
brokerage agreement fees and pro forma after-tax cash flow in isolation or as
substitutes for operating income, cash flows from operating activities or any
other measure for determining our operating performance or liquidity that is
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. In
addition, because broadcast cash flow, EBITDA before net expense (income) from
time brokerage agreement fees and pro forma after-tax cash flow are not
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, they are
not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other
companies.

The comparability of the historical financial data reflected below has been
significantly impacted by acquisitions and dispositions. You should read the
summary financial data together with "Selected Historical Financial Data" and
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations" and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes
included elsewhere in this prospectus.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Class A common stock involves risk. You should consider
carefully the following risk factors, in addition to the other information
contained in this prospectus, before purchasing shares of Class A common stock
in this offering. The risks and uncertainties described below are not the only
risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or
that we currently deem immaterial may impair our business operations. If any of
these risks actually occur, our business, results of operations and financial
condition could be materially and adversely affected, the trading price of our
Class A common stock could decline and you might lose all or part of your
investment.

IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CONSUMMATE THE SINCLAIR ACQUISITION, THE ADVERSE EFFECT ON
OUR BUSINESS, ON OUR MARKET DIVERSITY AND ON THE VALUE OF YOUR INVESTMENT COULD
BE MATERIAL.

The closing of this offering is not contingent on the consummation of the
Sinclair acquisition, and we cannot assure you that the Sinclair acquisition
will be consummated. The Sinclair acquisition is subject to a number of
important conditions, including approval from the FCC and clearance by federal
antitrust authorities. We expect that this offering will close in
advance -- perhaps by several months or more -- of satisfaction of these
conditions, and it is possible that one or more of these conditions will never
be satisfied. Moreover, as described in greater detail below, we presently do
not have financing sufficient to consummate the Sinclair acquisition. For all of
these reasons, we cannot assure you that we will be able to consummate the
Sinclair acquisition.

If we are unable to consummate the Sinclair acquisition, the adverse effect
on our business, on our market diversity and on the value of your investment
could be material. For example, we expect that the consummation of the Sinclair
acquisition will greatly increase the diversity and national reach of our
station portfolio, and we would not achieve these benefits -- at least in the
near term -- if the transaction does not close. In particular, on a pro forma
basis for completed transactions but excluding Sinclair, the radio stations we
own or operate in Seattle would have generated approximately 47.2% of our net
revenues and approximately 52.7% of our broadcast cash flow for the fiscal year
ended September 30, 1998 and these percentages would have been approximately
35.2% and 43.3%, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 1999.

Even on a pro forma basis for completed transactions and including
Sinclair, the radio stations we own or operate in Seattle would have generated
approximately 23.0% of our net revenues and approximately 25.5% of our broadcast
cash flow for the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998 and these percentages
would have been approximately 22.7% and 26.8%, respectively, for the six months
ended June 30, 1999. Accordingly we have greater exposure to any operating
difficulties that may arise at our Seattle stations or to adverse events or
conditions that affect the Seattle economy than if we were more geographically
diverse, and our exposure will be increased if we are unable to consummate the
Sinclair acquisition.

WE PRESENTLY DO NOT HAVE SUFFICIENT COMMITTED FINANCING TO CONSUMMATE THE
SINCLAIR ACQUISITION, AND OUR ABILITY TO OBTAIN THE NECESSARY FINANCING IS
UNCERTAIN.

Of the $824.5 million in cash required to fund the Sinclair acquisition, we
expect to pay approximately $276.1 million from the net proceeds of this
offering. Concurrently with this offering, we are also pursuing the TIDES
offering from which we expect to realize net proceeds of approximately $120.3
million to be applied toward the Sinclair acquisition.

11
<PAGE> 15

However, even assuming the closing of both offerings, we will be required to
raise approximately an additional $428.1 million to fund the balance of the
Sinclair purchase price. We will not be able to use our current credit facility
to fund this amount because we would exceed the committed amount under the
facility. Accordingly, we are actively engaged in discussions with various
potential lenders about amending or replacing our present credit facility in
order to obtain the additional financing. We cannot assure you that these
discussions will be successful. If they are not successful, we cannot assure you
that we will be able to obtain from other sources the financing necessary to
close the Sinclair acquisition, or what the terms of any alternative financing
might be.

Moreover, this offering is not contingent on the closing of the TIDES
offering. As a result, if this offering closes, but the TIDES offering does not,
the financing that we would need from an amended or replacement credit facility
or other potential source would correspondingly increase. The terms and
availability of this additional financing is also uncertain.

THE SINCLAIR ACQUISITION AGREEMENTS IMPOSE SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL PENALTIES ON US
IF WE ARE UNABLE TO CLOSE THE TRANSACTION BY SPECIFIED DATES, AND WE CANNOT
ASSURE YOU THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO DO SO.

Our arrangement with Sinclair consists of two separate asset purchase
agreements -- one for Sinclair's four Kansas City stations, for which the
purchase price is $122.0 million, and one for the remaining 42 stations in eight
other markets and other assets that we are acquiring, for which the purchase
price is $702.5 million. The multi-market agreement allocates the purchase
price, and allows for closings on a market by market basis. If Sinclair
rightfully terminates the multi-market agreement, it may be entitled to receive
liquidated damages from us in the maximum amount of approximately $43.0 million.
After we have acquired assets having an aggregate value of 45% of the total
purchase price, these liquidated damages are subject to pro rata downward
adjustment based on the value of markets that have already closed. If Sinclair
rightfully terminates the Kansas City agreement, it may be entitled to receive
liquidated damages from us in the maximum amount of approximately $7.0 million.

In addition, 135 days after public notice that the applications for consent
to assignment of the station licenses have been accepted for filing by the FCC,
the purchase price of all markets not yet closed under the multi-market
agreement will increase 0.75% if all of the markets under that agreement have
not closed due to the failure to receive any required regulatory consent as a
result of facts relating to us or our affiliates. The purchase price will
continue to increase 0.75% at the end of each 30 day period thereafter.
Similarly, 150 days after the same public notice for the Kansas City stations,
the purchase price for the Kansas City market will increase 0.75% if the Kansas
City market has not closed due to the failure to receive any required regulatory
consent as a result of facts relating to us or our affiliates. The purchase
price will continue to increase 0.75% at the end of each 30 day period
thereafter.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the necessary
regulatory approvals in time to avoid these financial penalties, or at all.

WE MAY NOT BE SUCCESSFUL IN IDENTIFYING AND CONSUMMATING FUTURE ACQUISITIONS,
WHICH IS AN IMPORTANT ELEMENT OF OUR BUSINESS STRATEGY.

We pursue growth, in part, through the acquisition of individual radio
stations and groups of radio stations. Our consummation of all future
acquisitions, including Sinclair, will be subject to various conditions,
including FCC and other regulatory approvals. The FCC must approve any transfer
of control or assignment of broadcast licenses. In addition,

12
<PAGE> 16

acquisitions may encounter intense scrutiny under federal and state antitrust
laws. Our acquisition of the Sinclair stations is, and many of our future
acquisitions may be, subject to notification under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 and to a waiting period and possible review
by the Department of Justice and the Federal Trade Commission. On September 24,
1999, we received a "second request" from the Department of Justice with respect
to the Sinclair Kansas City agreement and therefore the Department of Justice is
currently conducting a more detailed investigation of our acquisition of the
four stations from Sinclair in the Kansas City market. Although we believe that
the concerns of the Department of Justice will be resolved by our disposition of
three stations in the Kansas City market that we are required to make in order
to comply with FCC rules, we cannot assure you that this will be the case. The
applicable waiting period for the multi-market agreement expired on September
27, 1999.

Any delays, injunctions, conditions or modifications by any of these
federal agencies could have a negative effect on us and result in the
abandonment of all or part of the Sinclair acquisition or other attractive
acquisition opportunities. We cannot predict whether we will be successful in
identifying future acquisition opportunities or consummating these acquisitions
or what the consequences of any acquisitions will be.

Depending on the nature, size and timing of future acquisitions, we may
require additional financing. We cannot assure you that additional financing
will be available to us on acceptable terms. Radio broadcasting is a rapidly
consolidating industry, with many companies seeking to consummate acquisitions
and increase their market share. In this environment, we compete and will
continue to compete with many other buyers for the acquisition of radio
stations. Some of those competitors may be able to outbid us for acquisitions
because they have greater financial resources. As a result of these and other
factors, our ability to identify and consummate future acquisitions is
uncertain.

INTEGRATING ACQUISITIONS IS DIFFICULT.

We will have acquired 83 radio stations since October 1, 1996, including
our anticipated consummation of the Sinclair acquisition in the last quarter of
1999, and we expect to make acquisitions of other stations and station groups in
the future. The integration of acquisitions involves numerous risks, including:

- difficulties in the integration of operations and systems and the
management of a large and geographically diverse group of stations;

- the diversion of management's attention from other business concerns; and

- the potential loss of key employees of acquired stations.

We cannot assure you that we will be able to integrate successfully any
operations, systems or management that might be acquired in the future,
including the operations, systems or management acquired in the Sinclair
acquisition. Consummation of the Sinclair acquisition will require us to manage
a significantly larger radio station portfolio than historically has been the
case. Our failure to integrate and manage newly acquired stations successfully
could have a material adverse effect on our business and operating results. In
addition, in the event that the operations of a new business do not meet
expectations, we may restructure or write-off the value of some or all of the
assets of the new business.

WE MUST RESPOND TO THE RAPID CHANGES IN TECHNOLOGY, SERVICES AND STANDARDS THAT
CHARACTERIZE OUR INDUSTRY IN ORDER TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE.

The radio broadcasting industry is subject to rapid technological change,
evolving industry standards and the emergence of new media technologies and
services. We cannot assure you that we will have the resources to acquire new
technologies or to introduce new

13
<PAGE> 17

services that could compete with these new technologies. Several new media
technologies and services are being developed or introduced, including the
following:

- satellite delivered audio radio service, which could result in the
introduction of new satellite radio services with sound quality
equivalent to that of compact discs;

- audio programming by cable systems, direct broadcast satellite systems,
personal communications systems, Internet content providers and other
digital audio broadcast formats;

- in-band on-channel digital radio, which could provide multi-channel,
multi-format digital radio services in the same bandwidth currently
occupied by traditional AM and FM radio services; and

- microbroadcasting stations (low powered, limited coverage radio
stations), about which the FCC is considering proposals.

We cannot predict the effect, if any, that competition arising from new
technologies or regulatory change may have on the radio broadcasting industry or
on our company.

WE EXPECT TO INCUR SUBSTANTIAL ADDITIONAL INDEBTEDNESS TO CONSUMMATE THE
SINCLAIR ACQUISITION, AND THIS INCREASED LEVERAGE COULD HAVE IMPORTANT
CONSEQUENCES TO YOU.

To consummate the Sinclair acquisition, we expect to incur indebtedness
that will be substantial in relation to our shareholders' equity. Assuming that
we successfully amend or replace our credit facility and that we borrow under
the facility to help fund the Sinclair acquisition, upon consummation of the
Sinclair acquisition we would have had $594.4 million in long-term indebtedness
on a pro forma basis at June 30, 1999, compared to our actual long-term
indebtedness of $166.3 million at June 30, 1999. Our leverage will increase
further to the extent that we do not complete the TIDES offering and instead
incur additional debt under an amended or replacement credit facility or
otherwise to finance the Sinclair acquisition. Moreover, in addition to our
obligations on our long-term indebtedness and a $4.9 million letter of credit,
we will have quarterly interest obligations on the debentures held by the trust
that fund distributions on the TIDES. These obligations will be substantial in
amount and could have a substantial impact on you. For example, these
obligations could:

- require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from
operations to debt service, thereby reducing the availability of cash
flow for other purposes, including funding future expansion and ongoing
capital expenditures;

- impair our ability to obtain additional financing for working capital,
capital expenditures, acquisitions and general corporate or other
purposes;

- limit our ability to compete, expand and make capital improvements;

- increase our vulnerability to economic downturns, limit our ability to
withstand competitive pressures and reduce our flexibility in responding
to changing business and economic conditions; and

- limit or prohibit our ability to pay dividends and make other
distributions to you.

14
<PAGE> 18

THE COVENANTS IN OUR EXISTING CREDIT FACILITY RESTRICT OUR FINANCIAL AND
OPERATIONAL FLEXIBILITY, AND IT IS LIKELY THAT ANY AMENDED OR REPLACEMENT CREDIT
FACILITY WILL CONTAIN SIMILAR OR MORE RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS.

Our existing credit facility contains covenants that restrict, among other
things, our ability to borrow money, make particular types of investments or
other restricted payments, swap or sell assets, or merge or consolidate. An
event of default under our credit facility could allow the lenders to declare
all amounts outstanding to be immediately due and payable. We have pledged
substantially all of our consolidated assets and the stock of our subsidiaries
to secure the debt under our credit facility. If the amounts outstanding under
the credit facility were accelerated, the lenders could proceed against our
consolidated assets and the stock of our subsidiaries. Any event of default,
therefore, could have a material adverse effect on our business. Our credit
facility also requires us to maintain specified financial ratios. Our ability to
meet these financial ratios can be affected by events beyond our control, and we
cannot assure you that we will meet those ratios. To consummate the Sinclair
acquisition, we expect to amend or replace our credit facility. It is likely
that any amended or replacement credit facility will contain similar or more
restrictive covenants. We also may incur future debt obligations which might
subject us to restrictive covenants that could affect our financial and
operational flexibility or subject us to other events of default.

BECAUSE OF OUR HOLDING COMPANY STRUCTURE, WE DEPEND ON OUR SUBSIDIARIES FOR
CASH FLOW, AND OUR ACCESS TO THIS CASH FLOW IS RESTRICTED.

We operate as a holding company. All of our radio stations are currently
owned and operated by our subsidiaries. When we enter into an amended or
replacement credit facility, we expect that a newly formed subsidiary will
become the borrower and all of our station-operating subsidiaries will become
subsidiaries of this newly formed subsidiary. We also expect that we will
guarantee the borrower's obligations on a senior secured basis. Our obligations
on the 6 1/4% Convertible Subordinated Debentures due 2014, which will be
purchased by the trust that sells the TIDES, will be subordinated to our
obligations on this guarantee.

As a holding company, our only source of cash to pay our obligations,
including corporate overhead and other trade payables, is distributions from our
subsidiaries of their net earnings and cash flow. We currently expect that the
net earnings and cash flow of our subsidiaries will be retained and used by them
in their operations, including servicing their debt obligations, before
distributions are made to us. Even if our subsidiaries elect to make
distributions to us, we cannot assure you that applicable state law and
contractual restrictions, including the dividend covenants expected to be
contained in an amended or replacement credit facility, would permit such
dividends or distributions.

WE FACE MANY UNPREDICTABLE BUSINESS RISKS, BOTH GENERAL AND SPECIFIC TO THE
RADIO BROADCASTING INDUSTRY, WHICH COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR
FUTURE OPERATIONS.

Our future operations are subject to many business risks, including those
risks that specifically influence the radio broadcasting industry, which could
have a material adverse effect on our business including:

- economic conditions, both generally and relative to the radio
broadcasting industry;

- shifts in population, demographics or audience tastes;

- the level of competition for advertising revenues with other radio
stations, television stations and other entertainment and communications
media;
15
<PAGE> 19

- priorities of advertisers;

- fluctuations in operating costs;

- technological changes and innovations;

- changes in labor conditions;

- new laws, including proposals to eliminate the tax deductibility of
certain expenses incurred by advertisers; and

- changes in governmental regulations and policies and actions of federal
regulatory bodies, including the United States Department of Justice, the
Federal Trade Commission and the FCC.

Given the inherent unpredictability of these variables, we cannot with any
degree of certainty predict what effect, if any, these variables will have on
our future operations. Generally, advertising tends to decline during economic
recession or downturn. Consequently, our advertising revenue is likely to be
adversely affected by a recession or downturn in the United States economy, the
economy of an individual geographic market in which we own or operate radio
stations or other events or circumstances that adversely affect advertising
activity.

OUR CHAIRMAN OF THE BOARD AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER EFFECTIVELY CONTROLS OUR
COMPANY, AND MEMBERS OF HIS IMMEDIATE FAMILY ALSO OWN A SUBSTANTIAL EQUITY
INTEREST IN US. THEIR INTERESTS MAY CONFLICT WITH YOURS.

Upon completion of the offering, Joseph M. Field, our Chairman of the Board
and Chief Executive Officer, will beneficially own 2,988,305 shares of our Class
A common stock and 9,782,555 shares of our Class B common stock, representing
approximately 72.9% of the total voting power of all of our outstanding common
stock. David J. Field, our President, Chief Operating Officer, one of our
directors and the son of Joseph M. Field, will beneficially own 2,574,994 shares
of our Class A common stock and 749,250 shares of our outstanding Class B common
stock, representing approximately 7.3% of the total voting power of all of our
outstanding common stock. If the underwriters exercise their over-allotment
options in full, Joseph M. Field's and David J. Field's beneficially owned
shares of our common stock will represent 72.5% and 7.2% of the total voting
power of all of our outstanding common stock, respectively. Collectively, Joseph
M. Field and David J. Field beneficially own all of our outstanding Class B
common stock. Other members of the Field family also own shares of Class A
common stock.

Shares of Class B common stock are transferable only to Joseph M. Field,
David J. Field, certain of their family members or trusts for any of their
benefit. Upon any other transfer, shares of our Class B common stock convert
automatically into shares of our Class A common stock on a share-for-share
basis. Shares of our Class B common stock are entitled to ten votes only when
they are voted by Joseph M. Field or David J. Field, subject to certain
exceptions where they are restricted to one vote. Joseph M. Field generally is
able to control the vote on all matters submitted to the vote of shareholders
and, therefore, is able to direct our management and policies, except with
respect to those matters where the shares of our Class B common stock are only
entitled to one vote and those matters requiring a class vote under the
provisions of our articles of incorporation, bylaws or applicable law,
including, without limitation, the election of the two Class A directors.
Without the approval of Joseph M. Field, we will be unable to consummate
transactions involving an actual or potential change of control, including
transactions in

16
<PAGE> 20

which you might otherwise receive a premium for your shares over then current
market prices.

WE ARE DEPENDENT ON FEDERALLY-ISSUED LICENSES TO OPERATE OUR RADIO STATIONS AND
ARE SUBJECT TO EXTENSIVE FEDERAL REGULATION.

The radio broadcasting industry is subject to extensive regulation by the
FCC under the Communications Act of 1934. We are required to obtain licenses
from the FCC to operate our radio stations. Licenses are normally granted for a
term of eight years and are renewable. Although the vast majority of FCC radio
station licenses are routinely renewed, we cannot assure you that the FCC will
approve our future renewal applications or that the renewals will not include
conditions or qualifications. The non-renewal, or renewal with substantial
conditions or modifications, of one or more of our licenses could have a
material adverse effect on us.

We must comply with extensive FCC regulations and policies in the ownership
and operation of our radio stations. FCC regulations limit the number of radio
stations that a licensee can own in a market, which could restrict our ability
to consummate future transactions and in certain circumstances could require us
to divest some radio stations. For example, in connection with the Sinclair
acquisition we will be required to dispose of three radio stations in Kansas
City, and the timing and terms of these dispositions are both unknown. The FCC
also requires radio stations to comply with certain technical requirements to
limit interference between two or more radio stations. If the FCC relaxes these
technical requirements, it could impair the signals transmitted by our radio
stations and could have a material adverse effect on us. Moreover, these FCC
regulations and others may change over time and we cannot assure you that those
changes would not have a material adverse effect on us.

OUR RADIO STATIONS MAY NOT BE ABLE TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY IN THEIR RESPECTIVE
MARKETS FOR ADVERTISING REVENUES.

Our radio broadcasting stations are in a highly competitive business. Our
radio stations compete for audiences and advertising revenues within their
respective markets directly with other radio stations, as well as with other
media, such as newspapers, magazines, network and cable television, outdoor
advertising and direct mail. Audience ratings and market shares are subject to
change, and any change in a particular market could have a material adverse
effect on the revenue of our stations located in that market. While we already
compete in some of our markets with other stations with similar programming
formats, if another radio station in a market were to convert its programming
format to a format similar to one of our stations, if a new station were to
adopt a comparable format or if an existing competitor were to strengthen its
operations, our stations could suffer a reduction in ratings and/or advertising
revenue and could incur increased promotional and other expenses. Other radio
broadcasting companies may enter into the markets in which we operate or may
operate in the future. These companies may be larger and have more financial
resources than we have. We cannot assure you that any of our stations will be
able to maintain or increase their current audience ratings and advertising
revenues.

THE LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL COULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT ON OUR BUSINESS.

Our business depends upon the continued efforts, abilities and expertise of
our executive officers and other key executives, including Joseph M. Field, our
Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, David J. Field, our President
and Chief Operating
17
<PAGE> 21

Officer, John C. Donlevie, Esq., our Executive Vice President, Secretary and
General Counsel, and Stephen F. Fisher, our Senior Vice President and Chief
Financial Officer. We believe that the loss of one or more of these individuals
could have a material adverse effect on our business.

THE MARKET PRICE OF OUR STOCK COULD DECLINE DUE TO THE LARGE NUMBER OF SHARES
ELIGIBLE FOR PUBLIC SALE UPON CONSUMMATION OF THE OFFERING.

Upon completion of the offering, we will have 32,944,267 shares of Class A
common stock, 10,531,805 shares of Class B common stock and 1,695,669 shares of
Class C common stock issued and outstanding. Of these shares, the 8,000,000
shares of Class A common stock being sold in this offering (plus any shares sold
upon exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option), the 13,627,500 shares
sold in our initial public offering in January 1999 and approximately 300,000
shares of Class A common stock sold into the public market since the initial
public offering and approximately 100,000 shares of unrestricted Class A common
stock will be freely transferable without restriction in the public market,
except to the extent that these shares have been acquired by our affiliates;
resales of shares acquired by affiliates are subject to restrictions under Rule
144 of the Securities Act. In addition, upon conversion of the TIDES, the
approximately 2,841,000 shares of Class A common stock into which the TIDES are
convertible will be freely transferable without restriction in the public
market, except to the extent that those shares are acquired by our affiliates
and are therefore subject to restrictions under Rule 144. The remaining shares
of Class A common stock and all shares of Class B common stock and Class C
common stock were issued in reliance on exemptions from the registration
requirements of the Securities Act, and these shares are "restricted" securities
under Rule 144. The number of "restricted" shares available for sale in the
public market is limited by restrictions under Rule 144, although as to shares
held by persons who are not our affiliates, many of these restrictions do not
apply.

In connection with this offering and the TIDES offering, our directors,
members of senior management, and some of our shareholders, including Chase
Capital, have agreed pursuant to lock-up agreements not to sell or otherwise
dispose of shares representing approximately 10,500,000 shares of Class A common
stock, 10,531,805 shares of Class B common stock and 1,695,669 shares of Class C
common stock, other than shares sold pursuant to the over-allotment option in
this offering, for a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus without
the prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation.

The market price of our Class A common stock could decline as a result of
future sales of substantial amounts of Class A common stock, or the perception
that substantial sales could occur.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE PRICE OF OUR CLASS A COMMON
STOCK.

Certain provisions of our articles of incorporation, by-laws and
Pennsylvania law could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire
control of us, even if a change of control could be beneficial to you. These
provisions could adversely affect the price of our Class A common stock.

OUR FAILURE OR THE FAILURE OF THIRD PARTIES WITH WHICH WE INTERACT TO ADDRESS
ISSUES RELATED TO THE YEAR 2000 COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR OPERATIONS.

We rely, directly and indirectly, on information technology systems to
operate our radio stations, provide our radio stations with programming,
up-to-date news and other information and perform a variety of administrative
services including accounting, financial reporting, advertiser spot scheduling,
payroll and invoicing. We also use non-information technology systems, such as
microchips, for dating and other automated functions. Information and
non-information technology systems that do not properly recognize and process
date sensitive information when the year changes to "2000" or "00" could
generate erroneous data or cause such systems to fail. As a result, year 2000
issues could have a material adverse effect on our operations. In order to
minimize the risk of year 2000 related losses, we are conducting a comprehensive
assessment of our year 2000 issues. However, we cannot assure you that we will
resolve our year 2000 issues prior to the year 2000, or that the cost of
remedying any year 2000 issues will not have a material adverse effect on our
business. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that the systems of other companies
with which our systems interact will be timely converted and, if not timely
converted, would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition,
results of operation or cash flow.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We estimate that the net proceeds from the sale of the shares of Class A
common stock we are offering, after deducting underwriting discounts and
commissions and other offering expenses, will be approximately $276.1 million.
We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and the TIDES offering,
together with cash on hand and proceeds from the amended or replacement credit
facility we expect to negotiate, to finance the Sinclair acquisition. Pending
the closing of the Sinclair acquisition, we intend to use the net proceeds from
this offering to pay down revolving indebtedness under our current credit
facility. If the Sinclair acquisition is not consummated, we intend to use the
net proceeds from this offering for general corporate purposes, including
repayment of revolving indebtedness, future acquisitions and working capital. We
will not receive any portion of the net proceeds of the shares being sold by the
selling shareholders.

DIVIDEND POLICY

Since becoming a public company in January 1999, we have not declared any
dividends on our common stock. We have no plans to declare or pay cash dividends
in the foreseeable future because we intend to retain our earnings, if any, to
finance the expansion of our business and for general corporate purposes. Any
payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of the board of directors
and will depend upon, among other factors, our earnings, financial condition,
capital requirements, level of indebtedness, contractual restrictions, including
the provisions of our credit facility and provisions applicable to the TIDES,
and other considerations that the board of directors deems relevant.

COMPLETED AND PENDING TRANSACTIONS

COMPLETED TRANSACTIONS

In October 1997, we exchanged the broadcast frequency and transmission
facilities of our Kansas City station, KCMO-AM, for those of Kanza Inc.'s Kansas
City station, WHB-AM. Each party retained its call letters, formats and studio
facilities. We accounted for the transaction as a nonmonetary exchange of
similar productive assets, and no gain or loss was recognized. We recorded the
assets received at the historical cost of the assets surrendered.

In November 1997, we acquired KSSJ-FM (formerly KBYA-FM) in Sacramento from
Susquehanna Radio Corp for $15.9 million.

In January 1998, we acquired WDAF-AM and KUDL-FM in Kansas City plus $7.1
million from American Radio Systems in exchange for our sole station in St.
Louis, KLOU-FM.

In January 1998, we acquired KCTC-AM in Sacramento from American Radio
Systems for $4.0 million.

In May 1998, we acquired WSKY-FM (formerly WRRX-FM) in the Gainesville/
Ocala market from Gator Broadcasting, Inc. for $2.0 million, plus an additional
payment of up to $1.0 million payable once the authorized upgrade of the station
from a Class A license to a Class C-2 license becomes final.

In May 1998, we sold our rights to participate in an FCC licensing
proceeding in the Vancouver, Washington radio market to Jacor Communications,
Inc. for $10.0 million, resulting in a gain of $8.5 million.

In May 1998, we acquired KBAM-AM and KRQT-FM in the Longview/Kelso market
from Armak Broadcasters, Inc. for $1.0 million.

In June 1998, we acquired three stations, KRSK-FM (formerly KKRH-FM),
KKSN-FM and KKSN-AM in Portland, and four stations, WBEE-FM, WBBF-FM (formerly
WKLX-FM), WEZO-AM (formerly WBBF-AM) and WQRV-FM in Rochester, from Sinclair
Broadcast Group, Inc. for $126.5 million. We had operated these stations under a
time brokerage agreement since March 1998.

In August 1998, we acquired from Capital Broadcasting, Inc. the assets and
rental leases used in connection with the operation of a tower facility serving
the Kansas City market for $2.0 million.

In September 1998, we completed a transaction with American Radio Systems
to exchange certain assets used in the operation of radio stations serving the
Sacramento radio market. American Radio Systems transferred KRAK-FM's license
and transmission facility to us in exchange for KRXQ-FM's license and
transmission facility and $4.5 million. Each of the stations retained its own
call letters, programming format and studio and office property and equipment,
and the parties provided each other with reciprocal covenants against
programming competition on the respective frequencies for a period of two years.
American Radio Systems also transferred its intellectual property in the smooth
jazz program format for our use on our recently acquired KSSJ-FM (formerly KBYA-
FM) in that market. The transactions were accounted for as nonmonetary exchanges
of similar productive assets, and no gain or loss was recognized. The assets
received were
23
<PAGE> 27

recorded at the historical cost of the assets surrendered plus the $4.5 million
paid to American Radio Systems.

In December 1998, we acquired KSLM-AM, a radio station serving the Salem,
Oregon portion of the Portland radio market, from Willamette Broadcasting Co.
for $0.6 million.

In December 1998, we acquired the assets of WRKO-AM and WEEI-AM, serving
the Boston radio market, from CBS Radio, Inc. for $82.0 million. We had operated
these stations under a time brokerage agreement since September 1998. We also
sold the assets of WLLD-FM and WYUU-FM, serving the Tampa, Florida radio market
to CBS for $75.0 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $69.6 million. In
February 1999, we purchased the assets of radio stations WEGQ-FM, WWTM-AM and
WAAF-FM in Boston from CBS for $58.0 million in cash. We had operated these
stations under a time brokerage agreement since September 1998.

In June 1999, we acquired KKGM-AM (formerly WREN-AM), a radio station
serving Kansas City, Kansas, from Mortenson Broadcasting Company of Canton, LLC
for the sum of $2.8 million.

PENDING TRANSACTIONS

In February 1996, we entered into a preliminary agreement with Royce
International Broadcasting Corporation to acquire the assets of radio station
KWOD-FM, Sacramento, California, subject to approval by the FCC, for a purchase
price of $25.0 million. Notwithstanding our efforts to pursue this transaction,
the seller was nonresponsive. On July 28, 1999, we commenced a legal action
seeking to enforce this agreement, and subsequently the seller filed a
cross-complaint against us asking for damages, an injunction and costs and filed
a separate action against our president asking for treble damages, an
injunction, attorney's fees and costs. Our by-laws provide for us to indemnify
our president for this claim. We intend to pursue our legal action against the
seller and seek dismissal of the claims filed by the seller. Accordingly, we
cannot determine if or when the transaction might occur.

In June 1999, we entered into a non-binding letter of intent with the
Wichita Stations Trust, a trust formed for the benefit of Capstar Broadcasting
Corporation as required by federal broadcasting regulations, to purchase five
radio stations in Wichita for $8.0 million. We are presently engaged in
negotiations with the trust to reach a definitive agreement regarding this
transaction. We are also pursuing the acquisition of other stations in the
Wichita market.

We are not including KWOD-FM, Sacramento or the Wichita stations described
above in our station portfolio or pro forma financial information since we
cannot predict when, if ever, we will be successful in acquiring these stations.

In August 1999, we entered into asset purchase agreements with various
subsidiaries of Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. to purchase 46 radio stations in
nine markets. As part of the transaction, we are also acquiring 300,000 shares
of common stock, at $5.00 per share, in USA Digital Radio, Inc. The total
purchase price for the Sinclair acquisition is $824.5 million. You should refer
to "The Sinclair Acquisition" for more information regarding this transaction.

<PAGE> 28

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma financial information is based on our historical
consolidated financial statements and the financial statements of those
businesses that we have acquired or expect to acquire, as described in greater
detail below. The unaudited pro forma financial information should be read in
conjunction with the financial statements of the following entities and the
related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus:

- Entercom Communications Corp.;

- The Portland, Oregon and Rochester, New York Radio Groups of Heritage
Media Services, Inc. -- Broadcasting Segment;

- The Boston Radio Market of CBS Radio, Inc.;

- Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries -- Radio Division; and

- Heritage Media Services, Inc. -- Radio Broadcasting Segment -- a Division
of Heritage Media Corporation.

All acquisitions included in the pro forma information are accounted for
using the purchase method of accounting. The aggregate purchase price of each
transaction is allocated to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and
liabilities assumed based on their respective fair values. The allocation of the
aggregate purchase price reflected in the pro forma information is preliminary
for transactions to be closed subsequent to June 30, 1999. The final allocation
of the purchase price is contingent upon the receipt of final appraisals of the
acquired assets and the revision of other estimates. We do not expect final
allocations to differ materially from the preliminary allocation.

The unaudited pro forma information is presented for illustrative purposes
only and does not indicate the operating results or financial position that
would have occurred if the transactions described above had been completed on
the dates indicated, nor is it indicative of our future operating results or
financial position if we complete the transactions described above. We cannot
predict whether the completion of the pending transactions will conform to the
assumptions used in the preparation of the unaudited pro forma information.

For a discussion of our radio station acquisitions and dispositions
completed since October 1, 1997 and our pending acquisitions and dispositions,
see the "Completed and Pending Transactions" and "The Sinclair Acquisition"
sections.

We presently do not have a definitive agreement with respect to the amended
or replacement credit facility. In the event that we do not proceed with the
TIDES offering, we will be required to incur additional indebtedness under our
amended or replacement credit facility or otherwise to consummate the Sinclair
acquisition.

<PAGE> 29

SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma statement of income for the year ended September
30, 1998 has been prepared to illustrate the effects of the following, as if
each transaction had occurred on October 1, 1997:

- the completed transactions described under "Completed and Pending
Transactions" which were entered into subsequent to the beginning of the
period covered by the pro forma financial information;

- our conversion from an S corporation to a C corporation and the related
$88.1 million distribution to our S corporation shareholders which
represents the estimate of the undistributed balance of our taxable
income as of the date we ceased to be an S corporation;

- the conversion of the Chase Capital convertible subordinated note into
Class A and Class C common stock;

- the completion of our initial public offering;

- the amended or replacement credit facility that we are currently
pursuing;

- this offering of common stock at a public offering price of $36.00 per
share and the concurrent offering of TIDES; and

- the pending Sinclair acquisition.

We have shown the continued inclusion of the station operating results of
each of the 11 Kansas City stations, although federal regulations require us to
divest three stations in the Kansas City market. This is because we are seeking
to swap three Kansas City stations for stations in other markets, and we are
assuming for purposes of preparing the unaudited pro forma financial information
that the stations we acquire in these swaps will collectively have comparable
operating results. However, if we were to sell any of the three Kansas City
stations for cash, we would not include that station's operating results going
forward. Furthermore, we would use any cash proceeds from these sales to pay
down the outstanding indebtedness under our amended or replacement credit
facility.

JUNE 30, 1999 UNAUDITED PRO FORMA INFORMATION

The unaudited pro forma statements of income for the six month and twelve
month periods ended June 30, 1999 have been prepared to illustrate the effects
of the transactions listed above, as if each transaction had occurred on January
1, 1999 and July 1, 1998, respectively.

The unaudited pro forma balance sheet data as of June 30, 1999 gives effect
to the transactions listed above not yet consummated on that date as if each had
occurred on that date.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL INFORMATION
(IN THOUSANDS)

(A) The column represents (1) the results of operations of KFXX-AM, KKSN-FM
and KRSK-FM in Portland and WBBF-FM, WBEE-FM, WQRV-FM and WEZO-AM in
Rochester from October 1, 1997 through February 28, 1998, when we began
operating the stations under time brokerage agreements, (2) the results
of operations of WDAF-AM and KUDL-FM in Kansas City and KCTC-AM in
Sacramento from October 1, 1997 through December 31, 1997, when we
acquired these stations, (3) the results of operations of WSKY-FM in
Gainesville, KSSJ-FM in Sacramento and KBAM-AM and KRQT-FM in
Longview/Kelso from October 1, 1997 through May 7, 1998, when we acquired
these stations (4) the disposition of KLOU-FM in St. Louis, (5) the
exchange of broadcast frequency and transmission facilities of our Kansas
City station, KCMO-AM, for those of another Kansas City station, WHB-AM,
(6) the exchange of certain assets of our Sacramento station, KRXQ-FM,
for those of KRAK-FM, another Sacramento station, (7) the results of
operations of WEEI-AM and WRKO-AM in Boston from October 1, 1997 through
September 20, 1998, when we began operating the stations under time
brokerage agreements, (8) the results of operations of WQSX-FM, WAAF-FM
and WWTM-AM in Boston from October 1, 1997 through September 22, 1998,
when we began operating the stations under time brokerage agreements, and
(9) the disposition of WYUU-FM and WLLD-FM in Tampa.

(B) The column represents the results of operations of the Sinclair stations
for the year ended December 31, 1998.

(C) The adjustment reflects the operations of Max Media for the nine months
ended June 30, 1998, and Heritage Media Services, Inc. for the five
months ended February 28, 1998, which are not included in the historical
Sinclair operations, net of the operations of divested stations which are
included in the historical Sinclair operations.

(D) The adjustment reflects the elimination of time brokerage agreement fees
paid in connection with the operation of radio stations in New Orleans
and Greenville/ Spartanburg.

(E) The adjustment reflects the change in depreciation and amortization
arising from an increase in property, equipment, FCC licenses and
intangibles, as a result of the completed transactions, offset by a
decrease in those assets as a result of various dispositions and the
establishment of new estimated useful lives of the acquired assets. Under
our standard accounting policies, property and equipment are depreciated
over periods of five to twenty years, and FCC licenses and intangibles
are amortized over forty years. The adjustment consists of a decrease of
$1,501 in depreciation related to property and equipment, an increase of
$212 in amortization related to intangibles and a decrease of $107 in
amortization related to other intangibles.

(F) The adjustment reflects the change in depreciation and amortization
arising from an increase in property, equipment, FCC licensee and
intangibles, as a result of the Sinclair acquisition, offset by a
decrease in those assets as a result of various dispositions and the
establishment of new estimated useful lives of the acquired assets. Under
our standard accounting policies, property and equipment are

31
<PAGE> 35

depreciated over periods of five to twenty years, and FCC licenses and
intangibles are amortized over forty years. The adjustment consists of a
decrease of $1,141 in depreciation related to property and equipment, an
increase of $9,114 in amortization related to intangibles and a decrease
of $861 in amortization related to other intangibles.

(G) The adjustment reflects additional amortization arising as a result of
our purchase for $3.4 million of the remaining 1% limited partnership
interest in ECI License Company, L.P.

(H) These amounts represent, in aggregate, our actual corporate general and
administrative expenses allocated by the respective sellers, plus the
historical corporate general and administrative expenses related to (1)
the stations included in the completed transactions and (2) the portfolio
of stations we are purchasing in the Sinclair acquisition.

However, in such completed transactions we did not, and in the Sinclair
acquisition we will not, assume the corporate general and administrative
expenses relating to personnel, assets or obligations of the respective
sellers. We believe that due to operating efficiencies, our incremental
corporate general and administrative expenses relating to the operation of
the acquired stations prior to the respective dates of acquisition would
have been less than the amounts reported by the respective sellers.

(I) The adjustment reflects the elimination of net expense (income) from
time brokerage agreement fees related to the operations of the stations
under time brokerage agreements pending the consummation of purchase or
sale.

(J) The adjustment reflects interest expense, based on an assumed rate of
7.50%, as if the completed transactions, the S corporation conversion and
our distribution to our S corporation shareholders, the conversion of the
Chase Capital convertible subordinated note and our initial public
offering were completed on October 1, 1997, net of historical interest
expense. The calculation of interest assumes an outstanding indebtedness
under the amended or replacement credit facility of $168,500 consisting
of (1) $253,500 of previously incurred indebtedness, less (2) net
proceeds of $236,200 from our initial public offering, plus (3) $135,000
in additional indebtedness incurred to fund the Boston transactions, less
(4) $75,000 reduction in indebtedness following the application of
proceeds from the sale of WYUU-FM and WLLD-FM in Tampa, plus (5) $88,100
in additional indebtedness to fund the distribution to our S corporation
shareholders, plus (6) $3,100 in additional indebtedness to fund the
purchase of the remaining 1% limited partnership interest in ECI License
Company, L.P. A change in interest rates of 1/8% will change interest
expense by $211. The net adjustment is computed as follows:

(K) The adjustment reflects interest expense, based on an assumed rate of
7.50% as if the offerings and the Sinclair acquisition were completed on
October 1, 1997, net of historical interest expense. The calculation of
interest assumes additional outstanding indebtedness under the amended or
replacement credit facility of $428,150 after using the proceeds of
$276,100 from this offering, net of estimated fees and expenses, and
$120,250 from the issuance of TIDES in the concurrent offering, net of
estimated fees and expenses. A change in interest rates of 1/8% will
change interest expense by $535. The net adjustment is computed as
follows:

Credit facility pro forma interest expense............. $32,111
Historical interest expense............................ (16,659)

indexing of the convertible subordinated note due to the conversion of the
note.

(N) The adjustment reflects the elimination of the historical loss on asset
sale recorded by CBS.

(O) The adjustment reflects the elimination of the historical gain on asset
sale recorded by Sinclair.

(P) The adjustment reflects the elimination of the gain on the sale of the
Vancouver license rights.

(Q) The adjustment reflects the elimination of the minority interest in the
income of ECI License Company, LP, as a result of the purchase of the 1%
interest in that limited partnership.

(R) The adjustment reflects the elimination of state taxes incurred while we
were an S corporation.

(S) The adjustment reflects the elimination of Sinclair's income tax expense.

(T) The adjustment reflects our income tax expense as if we were a C
corporation with an effective tax rate of 38%.

(U) The adjustment reflects the effect of the increase in our effective tax
rate from 38% to 40% as a result of the Sinclair acquisition.

(V) The adjustment reflects (1) an increase of 11,300 in the number of shares
of common stock due to the initial public offering and 4,323 due to the
conversion of the Chase Capital convertible subordinated note into common
stock and (2) a decrease of 694 in the incremental number of shares of
common stock attributable to the amount of capital in excess of current
year earnings proposed to be distributed to the S corporation
shareholders.

(W) The adjustment reflects the increase in number of shares of common stock
issued for this offering.

(X) The column reflects the results of operations of the Sinclair stations
for the periods ended June 30, 1999.

(Y) The adjustment reflects the change in depreciation and amortization
arising from an increase in property, equipment, FCC licenses and
intangibles, as a result of the Sinclair acquisition, offset by a
decrease in those assets as a result of various dispositions and the
establishment of new estimated useful lives of the acquired assets. Under
our standard accounting policies, property and equipment are depreciated
over periods of five to twenty years, and FCC licenses and intangibles
are amortized over forty years. The adjustment consists of a decrease of
$571 in depreciation related to property and equipment, an increase of
$4,557 in amortization related to intangibles and a decrease of $1,905 in
amortization related to other intangibles.

(Z) The adjustment reflects interest expense, based on an assumed rate of
7.50%, as if the completed transactions, the S corporation conversion and
our distribution to our S corporation shareholders, the conversion of the
Chase Capital convertible subordinated note and our initial public
offering were completed on January 1, 1999, net of historical interest
expense. The calculation of interest assumes an outstanding indebtedness

SELECTED HISTORICAL FINANCIAL DATA

We have derived the selected operating data shown below for the years ended
September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998 and the balance sheet data shown below as of
September 30, 1997 and 1998 from our audited consolidated financial statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus. We have derived the selected operating
data shown below for the years ended September 30, 1994 and 1995 and the balance
sheet data shown below as of September 30, 1994, 1995 and 1996 from our audited
financial statements, which are not included in this prospectus. We have derived
the selected operating data shown below for the three months ended December 31,
1997, the three month transition period ended December 31, 1998 and the six
months ended June 30, 1998 and 1999 and the balance sheet data shown below as of
December 31, 1998 and June 30, 1999 from our unaudited financial statements
included elsewhere in this prospectus. We have derived the balance sheet data
shown below as of December 31, 1997 and June 30, 1998 from our unaudited
financial statements, which are not included in this prospectus.

- Historically, we operated with an October 1st to September 30th fiscal
year. Effective January 1, 1999, we changed for financial reporting
purposes from a fiscal year ending September 30th to a fiscal year ending
December 31st. Accordingly, the selected historical financial data
includes information as of, and for the three month transition period
ended, December 31, 1998 and the three months ended December 31, 1997.

- We retroactively restated our fiscal 1997 and 1998 consolidated financial
statements to reflect the Chase Capital convertible subordinated note as
an indexed debt instrument. We determined the adjustment as of the end of
each relevant period by subtracting the sum of principal and accrued
interest on the note from the fair value of the shares of our common
stock into which the note was convertible. Immediately prior to our
initial public offering, Chase Capital converted the note into 2,327,500
shares of our Class A common stock and 1,995,669 shares of our Class C
common stock. The Chase Capital convertible subordinated note has been
retired and we have no further obligation with respect to the note.

- Before completing our initial public offering, we were an S corporation,
and accordingly, we were not liable for federal and certain state
corporate income taxes. Instead, our shareholders included our taxable
income or loss in their federal and those state income tax returns.
Immediately before our initial public offering, we became a C
corporation, and accordingly, we are now subject to federal and state
corporate income taxes. The pro forma amounts shown in the table reflect
provisions for state and federal income taxes, applied to income before
income taxes and extraordinary item, as if we had been taxed as a C
corporation. These pro forma amounts exclude the effect of the adjustment
to reflect indexing of the Chase Capital convertible subordinated note
because the amount of this adjustment is not tax deductible.

- For purposes of our historical financial statements, the term "pro forma"
refers solely to the adjustments arising from our conversion from an S
corporation to a

37
<PAGE> 41

C corporation. It does not refer to any of the other adjustments
described under "Summary Pro Forma Financial Information" and "Unaudited
Pro Forma Financial Information."

- Broadcast cash flow consists of operating income before depreciation and
amortization, corporate general and administrative expenses and net
expense (income) from time brokerage agreement fees.

- Broadcast cash flow margin represents broadcast cash flow as a percentage
of net revenue.

- EBITDA before net expense (income) from time brokerage agreement fees
consists of operating income before depreciation and amortization,
non-cash compensation expense (which is included in corporate general and
administrative expenses) and net expense (income) from time brokerage
agreement fees.

- Pro forma after-tax cash flow consists of pro forma income before
extraordinary item minus gains on sale of assets (net of tax) plus the
following: depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense
(which is included in corporate general and administrative expense),
adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note and
deferred tax provision (or minus deferred tax benefit).

The comparability of the historical financial data reflected below has been
significantly impacted by acquisitions and dispositions. You should read

Operations" and our consolidated financial statements and the related notes
included elsewhere in this prospectus.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

You should read the following discussion together with the financial
statements and related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus. The results
discussed below are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected in
any future periods. This discussion contains forward-looking statements. See
"Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements" for further information
about forward-looking statements.

GENERAL

A radio broadcasting company derives its revenues primarily from the sale
of broadcasting time to local and national advertisers. The advertising rates
that a radio station is able to charge and the number of advertisements that can
be broadcast without jeopardizing listener levels largely determine those
revenues. Advertising rates are primarily based on three factors:

- a station's audience share in the demographic groups targeted by
advertisers, as measured principally by quarterly reports issued by The
Arbitron Ratings Company;

- the number of radio stations in the market competing for the same
demographic groups; and

- the supply of and demand for radio advertising time.

In fiscal 1998, we generated 76.2% of our revenues from local advertising,
which is sold primarily by each individual local radio station's sales staff,
and 22.6% from national spot advertising, which is sold by independent
advertising sales representatives. We generated the balance of our 1998 revenues
principally from network advertising and rental income from tower sites.

We include revenues recognized under a time brokerage agreement or similar
sales agreement for stations operated by us prior to acquiring the stations in
net revenues, while we reflect operating expenses associated with these stations
in station operating expenses. Consequently, there is no difference in the
method of revenue and operating expense recognition between a station operated
by us under a time brokerage agreement or similar sales agreement and a station
owned and operated by us.

Several factors may adversely affect a radio broadcasting company's
performance in any given period. In the radio broadcasting industry, seasonal
revenue fluctuations are common and are due primarily to variations in
advertising expenditures by local and national advertisers. Typically, revenues
are lowest in the first calendar quarter of the year. We generally incur
advertising and promotional expenses to increase "listenership" and Arbitron
ratings. However, because Arbitron reports ratings quarterly, any increased
ratings and therefore increased advertising revenues tend to lag behind the
incurrence of advertising and promotional spending.

In the broadcasting industry, radio stations often utilize trade or barter
agreements to reduce expenses by exchanging advertising time for goods or
services. In order to maximize cash revenue from our spot inventory, we minimize
our use of trade agreements and during the past five years have held barter
revenues under 2.0% of our gross revenues and barter related broadcast cash flow
under 0.4% of our broadcast cash flow.

40
<PAGE> 44

We calculate "same station" growth by (1) comparing the performance of
stations operated by us throughout a relevant quarter to the performance of
those same stations (whether or not operated by us) in the prior year's
corresponding quarter, excluding the effect of barter revenues and expenses and
discontinued operations and (2) averaging those growth rates for the period
presented. "Same station broadcast cash flow margin" is the broadcast cash flow
margin of the stations included in our same station calculations. For purposes
of the following discussion, pro forma net income represents historical income
before income taxes and extraordinary item adjusted as if we were treated as a C
corporation during all relevant periods at an effective tax rate of 38%, applied
to income before income taxes and extraordinary item, excluding the adjustment
to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note (as that adjustment is
not tax-deductible), and excluding extraordinary item, net of pro forma taxes.

Our net revenues and broadcast cash flow have grown significantly on both a
total and same station basis. Net revenues grew at a compound annual rate of
96.8% from an actual $35.9 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $273.8 million
in fiscal 1998. Broadcast cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of 98.0% from
an actual $11.8 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $91.6 million in fiscal
1998. During this same period, we grew our same station net revenues and
broadcast cash flow at average annual rates of 15.0% and 36.4%, respectively. In
addition, our pro forma after-tax cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of
124.9% from an actual $4.5 million in fiscal 1995 to a pro forma $51.2 million
in fiscal 1998.

Because of our significant acquisition and divestiture activities, our pro
forma 1998 and 1999 results differ materially from our actual 1998 and 1999
results.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Historically, we operated with an October 1st to September 30th fiscal
year. Effective January 1, 1999, we changed for financial reporting purposes
from a fiscal year ending September 30th to a fiscal year ending December 31st.
Accordingly, the following results of operations includes a discussion of the
three month transition period ended December 31, 1998 compared to the three
months ended December 31, 1997.

SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999 COMPARED TO SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998

NET REVENUES. Net revenues increased 50.0% to $95.5 million for the six
months ended June 30, 1999 from $63.7 million for the six months ended June 30,
1998. Of the increase, $25.8 million is attributable to stations that we
acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since January 1, 1998,
offset by $2.3 million for stations that we divested or that we were in the
process of divesting during the same period. On a same station basis, net
revenues increased 15.5% to $94.5 million from $81.9 million. Same station
revenue growth was led by increases in Boston, Seattle and Kansas City due to
improved selling efforts and Sacramento due to our strategic realignment of our
station formats.

STATION OPERATING EXPENSES. Station operating expenses increased 50.4% to
$64.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $42.7 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1998. Of the increase, $20.4 million is attributable
to stations that we acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since
January 1, 1998, offset by $1.8 million for stations that we divested or that we
were in the process of divesting during the

41
<PAGE> 45

same period. On a same station basis, station operating expenses increased 6.4%
to $63.3 million from $59.6 million.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization increased
64.8% to $10.0 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $6.1 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase was mainly attributable to
our acquisitions net of divestitures since January 1, 1998.

CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased 57.5% to $3.5 million for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 from $2.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The
increase was mainly attributable to higher administrative expenses associated
with supporting our growth and increasing staff and expenses to operate as a
public company. Also included in the current period is $0.2 million in non-cash
stock-based compensation expense.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 1.1% to $6.3 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 from $6.2 million for the six months ended June
30, 1998. The increase was mainly attributable to indebtedness that we incurred
in connection with our acquisitions offset by the proceeds from our initial
public offering, which were used to reduce debt.

INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES AND EXTRAORDINARY ITEM. Income before income
taxes and extraordinary item increased 61.6% to $11.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 from $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998.
The net change is caused by (1) a decrease in income of $8.3 million due to a
decrease in gains on sale of assets; (2) an increase in income of $5.7 million
due to a decrease in expense because the convertible subordinated note was
converted and therefore there was no adjustment during the 1999 period to
reflect indexing; (3) an increase in income of $5.1 million due to increases in
revenues from existing stations and improved revenues and expense management
from newly acquired stations; and (4) an increase in income of $1.6 million due
to a decrease in net expense (income) from time brokerage agreement fees.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEM, NET OF TAX BENEFIT. The extraordinary item for the six
months ended June 30, 1998 resulted from the write-off of $1.5 million of
unamortized finance charges due to the early extinguishment of debt, which
resulted from the refinancing of our credit facility.

PRO FORMA NET INCOME. As a result of the factors described above, pro
forma net income increased to $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999 from $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The net change is
caused by (1) an increase in income of $3.2 million, net of tax, primarily
attributable to an improvement in operating income due to increases in revenues
from existing stations and improved revenues and expense management from newly
acquired stations; (2) an increase in income of $0.6 million due to the
difference between a $5.7 million decrease in the expense for the adjustment to
reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note and a $5.1 million, net of
tax, decrease in gains on sale of assets; (3) an increase in income of $1.5
million, net of tax, due to a decrease in the extraordinary item; and (4) an
increase in income of $1.0 million, net of tax, due to a decrease in net expense
(income) from time brokerage agreement fees.

BROADCAST CASH FLOW. Broadcast cash flow increased 49.2% to $31.3 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $20.9 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1998. Of the increase, $5.4 million is attributable to stations
that we acquired or that we

42
<PAGE> 46

were in the process of acquiring since January 1, 1998, offset by $0.5 million
for stations that we divested or that we were in the process of divesting during
the same period. On a same station basis, broadcast cash flow increased 39.9% to
$31.2 million from $22.3 million.

Our broadcast cash flow margin declined to 32.7% for the six months ended
June 30, 1999 from 32.9% for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The decrease is
attributable to lower margins associated with newly acquired stations. On a same
station basis, broadcast cash flow margin increased to 33.0% from 27.2%.

PRO FORMA AFTER-TAX CASH FLOW. Pro forma after-tax cash flow increased
111.4% to $20.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 from $9.6 million
for the six months ended June 30, 1998. The increase is attributable to improved
operations of existing stations and the net effect of newly acquired properties,
taking into consideration pro forma income taxes as though we had reported as a
C corporation during the periods presented, respectively. The amount of the
deferred pro forma income tax expense, excluding the amount of the current pro
forma income tax expenses, was $3.0 million and $3.2 million for the six months
ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively.

THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED
DECEMBER 31, 1997

NET REVENUES. Net revenues increased 66.8% to $47.4 million for the three
months ended December 31, 1998 from $28.4 million for the three months ended
December 31, 1997. Of the increase, $17.9 million is attributable to stations
that we acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since October 1,
1997, offset by $2.7 million for stations that we divested or that we were in
the process of divesting during the same period. On a same station basis, net
revenues increased 16.5% to $46.9 million from $40.3 million. Same station
revenue growth was led by increases in Boston, Seattle, Kansas City and Portland
due to improved selling efforts.

STATION OPERATING EXPENSES. Station operating expenses increased 58.9% to
$30.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 from $18.9 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1997. Of the increase, $11.3 million is
attributable to stations that we acquired or that we were in the process of
acquiring since October 1, 1997, offset by $1.6 million for stations that we
divested or that we were in the process of divesting during the same period. On
a same station basis, station operating expenses increased 3.4% to $29.4 million
from $28.4 million.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization increased
51.3% to $4.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 from $2.9
million for the three months ended December 31, 1997. The increase was mainly
attributable to our acquisitions net of divestitures since October 1, 1997.

CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased 117.9% to $1.9 million for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 from $0.8 million for the three months ended December
31, 1997. The increase was mainly attributable to higher administrative expenses
associated with supporting our growth and increasing staff and expenses to
operate as a public company.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased 91.3% to $5.7 million for the
three months ended December 31, 1998 from $3.0 million for the three months
ended

43
<PAGE> 47

December 31, 1997. The increase was mainly attributable to indebtedness that we
incurred in connection with our acquisitions.

INCOME (LOSS) BEFORE INCOME TAXES. Income (loss) before income taxes
increased to $43.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 from a
loss of $12.0 million for the three months ended December 31, 1997. Of the
increase, $69.6 million is attributable to gains on the sale of assets from our
disposition of stations in the Tampa radio market during the three months ended
December 31, 1998, offset by $14.6 million which is attributable to an increase
in expense resulting from an adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible
subordinated note. We do not expect to recognize such significant gains on the
sale of assets in the future.

BROADCAST CASH FLOW. Broadcast cash flow increased 82.3% to $17.4 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1998 from $9.5 million for the three
months ended December 31, 1997. Of the increase, $6.9 million is attributable to
stations that we acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since
October 1, 1997, offset by $1.1 million for stations that we divested or that we
were in the process of divesting during the same period. On a same station
basis, broadcast cash flow increased 48.0% to $17.5 million from $11.8 million.

Our broadcast cash flow margin increased to 36.6% for the three months
ended December 31, 1998 from 33.6% for the three months ended December 31, 1997.
The increase is attributable to improved revenues and expense management
associated with newly acquired stations. On a same station basis, broadcast cash
flow margin increased to 37.4% from 29.4%.

PRO FORMA AFTER-TAX CASH FLOW. Pro forma after-tax cash flow increased
59.6% to $8.0 million for the three months ended December 30, 1998 from $5.0
million for the three months ended December 31, 1997. The increase is
attributable to improved operations of existing stations and the net effect of
newly acquired properties, taking into consideration pro forma income taxes as
though we had reported as a C corporation.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1998 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1997

NET REVENUES. Net revenues increased 41.7% to $133.0 million for the year
ended September 30, 1998 from $93.9 million for the year ended September 30,
1997. Of the increase, $20.3 million is attributable to stations that we
acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since October 1, 1997,
offset by $5.8 million for stations that we divested or that we were in the
process of divesting during the same period. On a same station basis, net
revenues increased 16.3% to $128.5 million from $110.5 million, largely due to
stronger selling efforts and radio advertising market growth. Same station
revenue growth was led by substantial increases in Seattle, Kansas City and
Portland.

STATION OPERATING EXPENSES. Station operating expenses increased 44.6% to
$88.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 from $61.3 million for the
year ended September 30, 1997. Of the increase, $13.2 million is attributable to
stations that we acquired or that we were in the process of acquiring since
October 1, 1997, offset by $4.4 million for stations that we divested or that we
were in the process of divesting during the same period. On a same station
basis, station operating expenses increased 11.2% to $84.7 million from $76.2
million.

44
<PAGE> 48

Two of the broadcast contracts with sports teams which we acquired in
connection with the December 1998 Boston transaction had an unfavorable impact.
This unfavorable impact was estimated to be $5.0 million. Pursuant to the
purchase agreement, CBS paid us $5.0 million in cash to offset the unfavorable
impact of these contracts.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization increased
70.0% to $13.1 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 from $7.7 million
for the year ended September 30, 1997. This increase was primarily attributable
to our acquisitions during 1997 and 1998.

CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased 39.3% to $4.5 million for the year ended
September 30, 1998 from $3.3 million for the year ended September 30, 1997. This
increase was primarily attributable to higher administrative expenses associated
with supporting our growth. We anticipate recording a non-cash compensation
expense of approximately $0.4 million in fiscal year 1999 and in each of the
following three fiscal years in connection with our issuance of 11,112 shares of
restricted stock and 275,562 options, at an exercise price of $18.00.

INTEREST EXPENSE AND THE ADJUSTMENT TO REFLECT INDEXING OF THE CONVERTIBLE
SUBORDINATED NOTE. Interest expense increased 28.8% to $14.7 million for the
year ended September 30, 1998 from $11.4 million for the year ended September
30, 1997. The increase was primarily attributable to indebtedness that we
incurred in connection with our acquisitions.

We determined the adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible
subordinated note as of the end of each relevant period by subtracting the sum
of principal and accrued interest on the note from the fair value of the shares
of our common stock into which the note was convertible using multiples of
broadcast cash flow of comparable publicly held radio broadcast companies. The
adjustment to reflect indexing of the note was $29.1 million and $8.8 million
for the years ended September 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively. The decrease in
the adjustment from 1997 to 1998 is due to a reduced broadcast cash flow growth
rate from 91.5% in 1997 to 36.3% in 1998 (primarily due to the timing of
acquisitions) and a lower multiple in 1998 due to the overall market condition
for public radio broadcast companies at September 30, 1998 relative to September
30, 1997.

INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES AND EXTRAORDINARY ITEM. Income before income
taxes and extraordinary item decreased to $9.9 million, including $8.7 million
from the gains on sale of assets, for the year ended September 30, 1998 from
$177.3 million, including $197.1 million from the gains on sale of assets, for
the year ended September 30, 1997. The gain on the assets in 1997 is primarily
attributable to our disposition of stations in the Houston, San Francisco and
Pittsburgh radio markets. We do not expect such significant gains on the sale of
assets to continue in the future.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEM, NET OF TAX BENEFIT. The extraordinary item for the
year ended September 30, 1998 resulted from the write-off of $1.5 million of
unamortized finance charges due to the early extinguishment of debt, which
resulted from the refinancing of our credit facility. There were no
extraordinary items in 1997.

PRO FORMA NET INCOME. As a result of the factors described above, pro
forma net income decreased to $1.3 million for the year ended September 30,
1998, which included the impact of the recognition of $8.8 million for the
adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note, offset by a
gain of $5.4 million, net of taxes, on the sale of

45
<PAGE> 49

assets. This compares to pro forma net income of $98.9 million for the year
ended September 30, 1997, which included the impact of the recognition of $29.1
million for the adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated
note, offset by a gain of $122.2 million, net of taxes, on the sale of assets.
The decrease is primarily attributable to our disposition of stations in the
Houston, San Francisco and Pittsburgh radio markets during the year ended
September 30, 1997. We used the proceeds from these dispositions to acquire
stations in markets where we believed there was greater potential for
establishing market leading station clusters. We do not expect such significant
gains on the sale of assets to continue in the future.

BROADCAST CASH FLOW. As a result of the factors described above, broadcast
cash flow increased 36.3% to $44.4 million for the year ended September 30, 1998
from $32.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1997. On a same station
basis, broadcast cash flow increased 27.7% to $43.8 million from $34.3 million.

Our broadcast cash flow margin declined to 33.4% for the year ended
September 30, 1998 from 34.7% for the year ended September 30, 1997. The
decrease is primarily attributable to our exchange in 1997 of relatively mature
stations in San Francisco and Houston, which operated at higher broadcast cash
flow margins but were located in markets where we believed there were limited
growth and clustering opportunities, for less developed properties in Seattle,
Kansas City and Sacramento, which collectively operated with lower broadcast
cash flow margins but offered stronger growth and clustering opportunities. On a
same station basis, broadcast cash flow margin increased to 34.1% from 31.1%.

PRO FORMA AFTER-TAX CASH FLOW. Pro forma after-tax cash flow increased
26.8% to $21.0 million for the year ended September 30, 1998 from $16.6 million
for the year ended September 30, 1997. The increase is attributable to improved
operations of existing stations and the net effect of newly acquired properties,
taking into consideration pro forma income taxes as though we had reported as a
C corporation.

FISCAL YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO FISCAL YEAR ENDED
SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

NET REVENUES. Net revenues increased 92.8% to $93.9 million for the year
ended September 30, 1997 from $48.7 million for the year ended September 30,
1996. Of the increase, $38.8 million is attributable to stations that we
acquired since October 1, 1996, offset by $9.9 million for stations that we
divested during the same period. On a same station basis, net revenues increased
14.2% to $86.6 million from $75.8 million. Same station revenue growth was led
by substantial increases in Seattle, Kansas City, Portland, Houston and St.
Louis.

STATION OPERATING EXPENSE. Station operating expenses increased 93.6% to
$61.3 million for the year ended September 30, 1997 from $31.7 million for the
year ended September 30, 1996. Of the increase, $20.0 million is attributable to
stations that we acquired since October 1, 1996, offset by $5.7 million for
stations that we divested during the same period. On a same station basis,
station operating expenses decreased 0.4% to $55.0 million from $55.2 million.
This decrease was attributable to cost savings measures that we implemented in
connection with our acquisitions.

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION. Depreciation and amortization increased
159.6% to $7.7 million for the year ended September 30, 1997 from $3.0 million
for the year ended

46
<PAGE> 50

September 30, 1996. This increase was primarily attributable to our 1996 and
1997 acquisitions and was partially offset by the net effect of stations sold
during the same period.

CORPORATE GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Corporate general and
administrative expenses increased 13.1% to $3.3 million for the year ended
September 30, 1997 from $2.9 million for the year ended September 30, 1996. This
increase was primarily attributable to higher administrative expenses associated
with supporting our growth.

INTEREST EXPENSE AND THE ADJUSTMENT TO REFLECT INDEXING OF THE CONVERTIBLE
SUBORDINATED NOTE. Interest expense increased 119.2% to $11.4 million for the
year ended September 30, 1997 from $5.2 million for the year ended September 30,
1996. The increase was primarily attributable to indebtedness that we incurred
in connection with our acquisitions.

We determined the adjustment to reflect the indexing of the convertible
subordinated note as of the end of each relevant period by subtracting the sum
of principal and accrued interest on the note from the fair value of the shares
of our common stock into which the note was convertible using multiples of
broadcast cash flow of comparable publicly held radio broadcast companies. There
was no adjustment to reflect indexing of the note as of September 30, 1996 as
the face amount of the note plus 7% stated interest approximated the market
value of the note on that date. The amount of the adjustment to reflect indexing
of the note increased from $0.0 to $29.1 million for the years ended September
30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The adjustment for 1997 is due primarily to a
91.5% increase in broadcast cash flow.

INCOME BEFORE INCOME TAXES AND EXTRAORDINARY ITEM. Income before income
taxes and extraordinary item increased 2,397.2% to $177.3 million for the year
ended September 30, 1997, including a gain of $197.1 million from the sale of
assets and $29.1 million for the adjustment to reflect indexing of the
convertible subordinated note, compared to $7.1 million for the year ended
September 30, 1996, which includes a gain of $0.1 million and no adjustment to
reflect indexing of the note. The increase in gain on the sale of assets is
primarily attributable to our disposition of stations in the Houston, San
Francisco and Pittsburgh radio markets. We used the proceeds from these
dispositions to acquire stations in markets where we believed there was greater
potential for establishing market leading station clusters. We do not expect
such significant gains on the sale of assets to continue in the future.

EXTRAORDINARY ITEM, NET OF TAX BENEFIT. There was no extraordinary item in
1997. The extraordinary item for the year ended September 30, 1996 resulted from
the write-off of $0.4 million of unamortized finance charges due to the early
extinguishment of debt, which resulted from the refinancing of our credit
facility.

BROADCAST CASH FLOW. As a result of the factors described above, broadcast
cash flow increased 91.5% to $32.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1997
from $17.0 million for the year ended September 30, 1996. On a same station
basis, broadcast cash flow increased 53.3% to $31.6 million from $20.6 million.

Our broadcast cash flow margin declined to 34.7% for the year ended
September 30, 1997 from 35.0% for the year ended September 30, 1996. The
decrease is primarily attributable to our exchange in fiscal 1997 of relatively
mature stations in San Francisco and Houston, which operated at higher broadcast
cash flow margins but were located in markets where management believed there
were limited growth and clustering opportuni-

47
<PAGE> 51

ties, for less developed properties in Seattle, Kansas City and Sacramento,
which collectively operated with lower broadcast cash flow margins, but offered
stronger growth and clustering opportunities. On a same station basis, broadcast
cash flow margins increased to 31.1% for the year ended September 30, 1997 from
27.2% for the year ended September 30, 1996.

PRO FORMA AFTER-TAX CASH FLOW. Pro forma after-tax cash flow increased
127.4% to $16.6 million for the year ended September 30, 1997 from $7.3 million
for the year ended September 30, 1996. The increase is attributable to improved
operations of existing stations and the net effect of newly acquired properties,
taking into consideration pro forma income taxes as though we had reported as a
C corporation.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We use a significant portion of our capital resources to consummate
acquisitions. Historically, these acquisitions were funded from one or a
combination of the following sources: (1) our credit facility, (2) the swapping
of our radio stations in transactions which qualify as "like-kind" exchanges
under sec.1031 of the Internal Revenue Code and (3) internally-generated cash
flow. For the Sinclair acquisition, we expect to use net proceeds from the
offering and the TIDES offering, together with cash on hand and proceeds from an
amended or replacement credit facility, to finance the purchase price for the
Sinclair acquisition.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $8.2 million and $5.8
million for the six months ended June 30, 1999 and 1998, respectively. Changes
in our net cash flows provided by operating activities are primarily a result of
changes in advertising revenues and station operating expenses, which are
affected by the acquisition and disposition of stations during those periods.

Net cash flows provided by investing activities were $10.0 million for the
six months ended June 30, 1999 and net cash flows used by investing activities
were $125.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 1998. Net cash flows used
by financing activities were $16.0 million for the six months ended June 30,
1999 and net cash flows provided by financing activities were $122.4 million for
the six months ended June 30, 1998. The cash flows for the six months ended June
30, 1999 reflect (1) completed transactions consummated in the period and the
related borrowings and (2) proceeds from our initial public offering and the
related payment of long-term debt and corporate obligations. The cash flows for
the six months ended June 30, 1998 reflect refinancing of our credit facility
and acquisitions consummated in the period together with the related borrowings.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $11.2 million and $7.3
million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
Changes in our net cash flows from operating activities are primarily a result
of changes in advertising revenues and station operating expenses which are
affected by the acquisition and disposition of stations during those periods.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $86.9 million and $17.5
million for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. Net
cash flows provided by financing activities were $75.5 million and $10.0 million
for the three months ended December 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively. These cash
flows reflect the acquisitions that we consummated in the relevant periods and
the related borrowings.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $23.0 million, $8.9
million and $12.8 million for the years ended September 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Changes in our net cash flow from operating activities are
primarily a result of changes in

48
<PAGE> 52

advertising revenues and station operating expenses which are affected by the
acquisition and disposition of stations during those periods.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $153.7 million, $13.7
million and $96.5 million for the years ended September 30, 1998, 1997 and 1996,
respectively. Net cash flows provided by financing activities were $133.7
million, $3.2 million and $87.5 million for the years ended September 30, 1998,
1997 and 1996, respectively. These cash flows reflect the acquisitions
consummated in the relevant periods and the related borrowings.

On February 3, 1999, upon the consummation of our initial public offering,
we received net proceeds of $236.2 million, after deducting expenses,
underwriting discounts and commissions. We used these proceeds to reduce
outstanding indebtedness under our credit facility and to pay other corporate
obligations. Shortly after reducing indebtedness under the credit facility, in
February 1999 we reborrowed approximately $58.0 million to purchase three Boston
radio stations from CBS.

In addition to debt service and quarterly distributions under the TIDES,
which could be substantial in amount, our principal liquidity requirements will
be for working capital and general corporate purposes, including capital
expenditures, and acquisitions of additional radio stations, including the
Sinclair acquisition. For calendar 1999, we estimate that maintenance capital
expenditures will be approximately $1.5 million and that total capital
expenditures will be between $10.0 million and $11.5 million. These estimates do
not include the incremental capital expenditures that may be incurred in
connection with the Sinclair acquisition. These estimates include studio
consolidations in many of our markets, providing us with operational
improvements from which we will receive long-term benefits. We believe that cash
flow from operating activities, together with revolving borrowings under our
existing credit facility, should be sufficient to permit us to fund our capital
expenditures and on-going operations, exclusive of the Sinclair acquisition.

In order to fund the $824.5 million in cash required to consummate the
Sinclair acquisition, we expect to pay approximately $276.1 million from the net
proceeds of this offering and approximately $120.3 million from the net proceeds
of the TIDES offering. However, even assuming the closing of both offerings, we
will be required to raise an additional $428.1 million through borrowing to fund
the balance of the Sinclair purchase price. Our existing credit facility would
provide approximately $179.1 million of this amount, but we will need to amend
or replace the facility to increase funds available under it by approximately
$249.0 million. Accordingly, we are engaged in discussions with various
potential lenders about amending or replacing our present credit facility in
order to obtain the additional financing. Moreover, if this offering closes, but
the TIDES offering does not, the financing that we would need from an amended or
replacement credit facility or other potential sources would correspondingly
increase.

We entered into a loan agreement, dated as of February 13, 1998, as amended
October 8, 1998 and as further amended on July 20, 1999, with several banks,
including Key Corporate Capital Inc. and Bank of America NT&SA, for a $350.0
million revolving credit facility. The credit facility was established to
refinance our existing indebtedness, provide working capital and fund
acquisitions. As discussed above, we must amend or replace this credit facility
to fund the purchase price for the Sinclair acquisition.

Under our current credit facility, at our election, interest on any
outstanding principal accrues at a rate based on either LIBOR plus a spread
which ranges from 0.5% to 2.125%

49
<PAGE> 53

or on KeyBank N.A.'s base rate plus a spread of up to 0.875%, depending on our
leverage ratio. Although we may borrow, repay and reborrow under our current
credit facility, the aggregate maximum amount that we can have outstanding at
any one time is reduced on a quarterly basis beginning on June 30, 2000. The
final maturity date for our credit facility is February 13, 2006. As of June 30,
1999, we had approximately $166.0 million of borrowings and a $4.9 million
letter of credit outstanding under our credit facility.

We are prohibited under our current credit facility from maintaining a
total leverage ratio (defined as the ratio of our total debt to operating cash
flow) greater than 6.5 to 1.0, at any time through March 31, 2000, which reduces
over subsequent periods. In addition, we are prohibited under our current credit
facility from maintaining a senior leverage ratio (defined as the ratio of the
principal amount outstanding under our current credit facility to operating cash
flow) greater than 6.0 to 1.0, at any time through March 31, 2000, which reduces
over subsequent periods. Currently, we are in compliance with each of these
total and senior leverage ratio obligations.

We are also required by our current credit facility to (1) maintain a fixed
charge coverage ratio (defined as the ratio of operating cash flow to the sum of
our debt service, capital expenditures, taxes and capital distributions, over
any four quarter period) greater than 1.05 to 1.00 and (2) maintain an interest
coverage ratio (defined as the ratio of operating cash flow to interest expense
over any four quarter period) greater than 2.0 to 1.0. Currently, we are in
compliance with each of these financial ratio obligations.

As part of the consent we received from our lenders to consummate the TIDES
offering, we and the lenders have agreed that we will include the financing cost
of the TIDES as part of interest expense for purposes of the fixed charge
coverage ratio and the interest coverage ratio and that we will exclude the
principal amount of the debentures from the calculation of our total debt.
However, the amount of any deferred interest on the debentures will be included
in the total debt calculation.

Our current credit facility requires us to protect ourselves from interest
rate fluctuations through the use of derivative rate hedging instruments. As a
result, we have entered into various convertible rate cap and interest rate swap
transactions with various banks designed to mitigate our exposure to
significantly higher floating interest rates. A rate cap agreement establishes
an upper limit or "cap" for the base LIBOR rate. Swap agreements require that we
pay a fixed rate of interest on the notional amount to a bank and the bank pay
to us a variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR. Some of the swap agreements
grant the bank the option to terminate the transaction prior to its respective
expiration date in certain limited circumstances.

50
<PAGE> 54

In the future, we expect to continue executing rate hedging transactions
only to the extent required by our lenders and do not anticipate holding
derivative securities for speculative or investment purposes. The following
table sets forth certain information regarding the rate hedging transactions
which we had entered into as of September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998.

RECENT PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 entitled "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
"derivatives"), and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. The accounting for changes
in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the derivative
and the resulting designation. In June 1999, the FASB issued SFAS No. 137 which
extends the effective date of SFAS No. 133 to fiscal quarters of fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2000 and should not be applied retroactively to
financial statements of prior periods. Management has not yet determined what
effect, if any, this statement will have on us.

IMPACT OF YEAR 2000 ISSUES

In order to minimize the risk of year 2000 related losses, we are
conducting a comprehensive assessment of our year 2000 issues. This assessment
consists of (1) an analysis of all of the information and non-information
technology systems that we use, including the circulation of year 2000
compliance questionnaires to the chief engineers of each of our stations,
requiring them to evaluate their respective station's preparedness for

51
<PAGE> 55

year 2000 issues and (2) an inquiry as to the year 2000 status of third parties
material to our operations, including the transmission of letters to all key
service providers requesting written confirmation of their year 2000 readiness.

Although we are still in the process of assessment, we have determined that
the bulk of the technology systems we use internally are year 2000 compliant. We
have received confirmation from each supplier that provided or manufactured a
material information or non-information technology system used by us that the
system is either year 2000 compliant or that the supplier will, within a short
period of time, provide software aides, supplements or replacements that will
make the system year 2000 compliant.

Due to:

- the preventive measures being taken in response to our assessment;

- the relatively small degree to which the radio broadcasting industry, as
compared to other industries, depends on older large computer systems or
interfaces with third party computer systems;

- the fact that most of our automated administrative services can, if
needed, be performed manually; and

- the fact that most of our radio stations are equipped with emergency
power systems,

we believe that, while difficult to fully assess, year 2000 issues should not
have a material adverse effect on our broadcast operations.

We believe that it is difficult to fully assess the risks of the year 2000
problem due to the numerous uncertainties surrounding the issue. We believe that
the primary risks are external to us and relate to the year 2000 readiness of
our third party suppliers. The inability of third party suppliers to adequately
address the year 2000 issues on a timely basis could result in a material
financial risk, including loss of revenue, substantial unanticipated costs and
service interruptions. We plan to continue our efforts to survey all work with
third party suppliers to address all significant year 2000 issues in a timely
manner.

We are currently completing our year 2000 remediation efforts and we are
developing a contingency plan for dealing with year 2000 issues caused by
systems external to us. Since most of the year 2000 compliance achieved by us to
date has been done through the normal upgrading process, separate costs have not
been allocated to the year 2000 issue. Based on our experience to date, we
estimate that the remaining costs to respond to the year 2000 issues will not
exceed $250,000. All of these costs will be expensed as incurred.

INFORMATION ABOUT STATION AND MARKET DATA

For this prospectus:

- We obtained the following data from Duncan's Radio Market Guide (1999
ed.):

- 1998 market rank by metro population;

- 1998 market rank by radio revenue;

- 1998 Entercom market revenue share; and

- 1998 Entercom market revenue rank.

- Our market revenue rank in the radio broadcasting industry is derived
from Duncan's, as adjusted to reflect our completed transactions and our
expected consummation of the Sinclair acquisition in the fourth quarter
of 1999.

- We derived audience share and audience rank in target demographic data
from surveys of persons, listening Monday through Sunday, 6 a.m. to 12
midnight, in the indicated demographic, as set forth in the Spring 1999
Radio Market Report published by The Arbitron Ratings Company.

- We present radio station data assuming the completion of the Sinclair
acquisition.

BUSINESS

OVERVIEW

We are the fifth largest radio broadcasting company in the United States
based on pro forma 1998 gross revenues. We have assembled, after giving effect
to our pending acquisition of 46 stations from various subsidiaries of Sinclair
Broadcast Group, Inc., a nationwide portfolio of 88 owned or operated stations.
This portfolio consists of 56 FM and 32 AM stations in 16 markets, including 12
of the country's top 50 markets. Our station groups rank among the three largest
clusters in 15 of our 16 markets. On a pro forma basis, we would have had net
revenues of $301.9 million, operating income of $51.2 million and a pro forma
loss before extraordinary item of $0.4 million for the twelve months ended June
30, 1999. In addition, pro forma broadcast cash flow during the same period
would have been $107.7 million.

OUR CORPORATE HISTORY

Throughout our more than 30 year history of operations, we have experienced
sustained growth by adapting our acquisition and operating strategies to
capitalize on changes occurring in the radio broadcasting industry. Our Chairman
of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, Joseph M. Field, founded Entercom in
1968 on the conviction that FM broadcasting, then in its infancy, would surpass
AM broadcasting as the leading aural medium. Our strategy from inception through
the 1970s was to acquire FM stations in the top 20 markets at a fraction of
prevailing prices for AM stations and to operate those stations economically and
profitably by utilizing niche formats not being offered by major AM stations. We
continued this strategy until FM's technical superiority and the availability of
inexpensive AM/FM receivers drove FM's penetration of the radio market to
critical mass and FM stations began to compete successfully with the dominant AM
stations of the time for control of mass market audiences. As part of our
strategy, we also purchased technically underdeveloped FM stations and upgraded
them so that they could become competitive stations in their markets.

In the mid-1980's, with FM at critical mass, we adjusted our strategic plan
and began a deliberate multi-year effort to enhance our operations at both the
corporate and station levels by changing or adjusting program formats to appeal
to mainstream audiences in order to compete for greater shares of audience and
advertising dollars in our markets. With the advent of the duopoly rules in
1992, which permitted expansion of ownership in a market from one to two
stations in each radio medium, we began to "double up" in our markets. Since the
passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which permitted ownership of up
to eight radio stations in most major markets, we have pursued a creative
acquisition and development strategy by which we have swapped developed
stand-alone

54
<PAGE> 58

FM stations in various markets in exchange for clusters of underdeveloped
stations in other large growth markets where there was greater opportunity to
develop market leading clusters.

OUR ACQUISITION STRATEGY

OUR OPERATING STRATEGY

The principal components of our operating strategy are to:

- DEVELOP MARKET LEADING STATION CLUSTERS. We are among the three largest
clusters, based on gross revenues, in 15 of our 16 markets, after giving
effect to the Sinclair acquisition. To enhance our competitive position,
we strategically align our stations' formats and sales efforts within
each market to optimize their performance, both individually and
collectively. We seek to maximize the ratings, revenue and broadcast cash
flow of our radio stations by tailoring their programming to optimize
aggregate audience delivery.

- ACQUIRE AND DEVELOP, UNDERPERFORMING STATIONS. We seek to acquire and
develop underperforming stations, which has enabled us to build a
long-term track record of achieving superior same station revenue and
broadcast cash flow growth. We utilize a variety of techniques to develop
underachieving properties. These techniques include: strategic market
research and analysis; management enhancements; expenditure reductions;
improved sales training and techniques; technical upgrades; programming
and marketing enhancements; and facility consolidations.

- LEVERAGE STATION CLUSTERS TO CAPTURE GREATER SHARE OF ADVERTISING
REVENUE. We believe radio will continue to gain revenue share from other
media as a result of deregulation in the broadcasting industry, which
allows broadcasters to create larger clusters in their markets and offers
advertisers a means to cost-effectively reach larger audiences. As a
result of deregulation in the radio broadcasting industry, operators can
now create radio station clusters that have the critical mass of audience
reach and marketing resources necessary to pursue incremental advertising
and promotional revenues more aggressively. We have begun to capitalize
on this opportunity by developing specialized teams in many of our
markets to work with

55
<PAGE> 59

non-traditional radio advertisers to create and develop marketing
programs and solutions.

- MAXIMIZE TECHNICAL CAPABILITIES. We seek to operate stations with the
strongest signals in their respective markets. In addition, on various
occasions we have identified opportunities to acquire and upgrade
low-powered or out-of-market stations and transform them into competitive
signals, thus increasing their value significantly. For example, in 1998
we sold our two Tampa FM stations, which we had purchased for an
aggregate of $4.9 million, for $75.0 million after upgrading their
license classes.

- RECRUIT, DEVELOP, MOTIVATE AND RETAIN SUPERIOR EMPLOYEES. We believe
that station operators differentiate themselves from their peers
primarily through their ability to recruit, develop, motivate and retain
superior management, programming and sales talent. Accordingly, we strive
to establish a compelling corporate culture that is attractive to
superior performers. We encourage our stations to build strong community
bonds through local and company-wide community service programs, which
facilitate strong local business relationships and provide employees with
opportunities for enhanced job fulfillment. We offer competitive pay
packages with performance-based incentives for our key employees. In
addition, we provide employees with opportunities for personal growth and
advancement through extensive training, seminars and other educational
programs.

OUR STATION PORTFOLIO

We have built a highly consolidated portfolio of radio stations
concentrated primarily in top 50 markets with above average growth
characteristics. Upon consummation of the Sinclair acquisition, and prior to our
required divestiture of three stations in Kansas City, 66 of our 88 radio
stations will be in 12 of the top 50 markets. We generated 92.9% of our pro
forma 1998 net revenues from the 12 top 50 markets in which we operate. Radio
advertising revenues in these 12 markets have grown at a revenue weighted
compound annual growth rate of 11.2% from 1993 to 1998, which exceeded both the
revenue weighted compound annual growth rate of the top 50 markets and the
average annual growth rate of the aggregate radio industry.

Our current portfolio of stations includes a significant number of recently
acquired stations that we believe are underdeveloped. We believe that the
underdeveloped stations offer the opportunity for substantial broadcast cash
flow growth. In the aggregate, the 33 stations which we commenced operating on
or after January 1, 1997 operated at a broadcast cash flow margin of 27.4%
during the twelve months ended June 30, 1999. By comparison, in the aggregate,
the nine stations which we commenced operating prior to 1997 operated at a
broadcast cash flow margin of 48.2% during the twelve months ended June 30,
1999.

Our portfolio of radio stations is geographically diverse and offers a wide
variety of programming formats. We believe that geographic diversity will reduce
the effect of economic downturn in specific markets, while our wide range of
programming formats lessens the impact of changes in listening preferences.
Furthermore, because of the size of our station portfolio, we are not overly
dependent on the performance of any one station. The following table sets forth
selected information about our portfolio of radio stations and gives effect to
the consummation of the Sinclair acquisition. It does not give effect to the
required disposition of three stations in Kansas City, which we are seeking to
swap for stations in other markets. If we cannot arrange suitable swaps, we will
sell these stations for cash.

(1) Our stations are in some instances licensed to communities other than the
named principal community for the market.

(2) We derived the 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Share for each market by adding
the 1998 market revenue share of each of our stations in that market.

(3) 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Rank for each market is the ranking, by 1998
market revenue, of our group of radio stations in that market among all
other groups of radio stations in that market.

(4) Station competes in the adjacent community of Worcester, Massachusetts and
simulcasts virtually all of the programming of WEEI-AM.

(5) We also sell substantially all of the advertising time of a sixth FM
station in the Seattle market under a joint sales agreement. The revenues
from these sales are included in 1998 Entercom Market Revenue Share.

(6) KLSM-AM is licensed to Salem, Oregon, within the Portland market and
simulcasts KFXX-AM programming.

(7) Because the table does not give effect to our required disposition of three
stations in the Kansas City market, we have not listed 1998 Entercom Market
Revenue Share for Kansas City. Giving effect to this disposition, which
will leave us with a total of eight stations in Kansas City, 1998 Entercom
Market Revenue Share in Kansas City will decline, although we believe that
1998 Entercom Market Revenue Rank will remain unchanged.

(8) Station to be acquired upon consummation of Sinclair acquisition.

(9) All stations in this market to be acquired upon consummation of the

(10) Time brokerage agreement commenced in 1997. Sinclair has exercised an
option to acquire this station. We expect to either acquire this station
directly in the Sinclair acquisition or assume Sinclair's option to acquire
it.

(11) WYRD-AM and WORD-AM simulcast their programming.

(12) Operated under joint sales agreement. In April 1996, Sinclair exercised an
option to acquire this station. We expect to either acquire this station
directly in the Sinclair acquisition or assume Sinclair's option to acquire
it.

COMPETITION; CHANGES IN BROADCASTING INDUSTRY

The radio broadcasting industry is highly competitive. The success of each
of our stations depends largely upon its audience ratings and its share of the
overall advertising revenue within its market. Our stations compete for
listeners and advertising revenue directly with other radio stations within
their respective markets. Radio stations compete for listeners primarily on the
basis of program content that appeals to a particular demographic group. By
building a strong listener base consisting of a specific demographic group in
each of our markets, we are able to attract advertisers seeking to reach those
listeners.

The following are some of the factors that are important to a radio
station's competitive position:

- management experience;

- the station's local audience rank in its market;

- transmitter power;

- assigned frequency;

- audience characteristics;

- local program acceptance; and

- the number and characteristics of other radio stations and other
advertising media in the market area.

In addition, we attempt to improve our competitive position with
promotional campaigns aimed at the demographic groups targeted by our stations
and by sales efforts designed to attract advertisers. Recent changes in the
Communications Act and the FCC's policies and rules permit increased ownership
and operation of multiple local radio stations.

Despite the competitiveness within the radio broadcasting industry, some
barriers to entry exist. The operation of a radio broadcast station requires a
license from the FCC. The number of radio stations that can operate in a given
market is limited by strict AM interference criteria and the availability of FM
radio frequencies allotted by the FCC to communities in that market. The number
of stations that a single entity may operate in a market is further limited by
the FCC's multiple ownership rules that regulate the number of stations serving
the same area that may be owned and controlled by a single entity.

Our stations also compete for audiences and advertising revenues within
their respective markets directly with other radio stations, as well as with
other media such as newspapers, magazines, network and cable television, outdoor
advertising and direct mail. In addition, the radio broadcasting industry is
subject to competition from new media technologies that are being developed or
introduced such as (1) satellite delivered audio radio service, which could
result in the introduction of new satellite radio services with sound quality
equivalent to that of compact discs; (2) audio programming by cable systems,
direct broadcast satellite systems, Internet content providers, personal
communications services and other digital audio broadcast formats; and (3)
in-band on-channel digital radio, which could provide multi-channel,
multi-format digital radio services in the same bandwidth currently occupied by
traditional AM and FM radio services. The FCC is also considering proposals for
the establishment of "microbroadcasting" stations, low-powered FM stations that
would be designed to serve small localized areas. The radio broadcasting

60
<PAGE> 64

industry historically has grown despite the introduction of new technologies for
the delivery of entertainment and information, such as television broadcasting,
cable television, audio tapes and compact discs. A growing population and
greater availability of radios, particularly car and portable radios, have
contributed to this growth. We cannot assure you, however, that this historical
growth will continue or that the development or introduction in the future of
any new media technology will not have an adverse effect on the radio
broadcasting industry.

The FCC has adopted licensing and operating rules for satellite delivered
audio and in April 1997 awarded two licenses for this service. Satellite
delivered audio may provide a medium for the delivery by satellite or
terrestrial means of multiple new audio programming formats to local and/or
national audiences. Digital technology also may be used in the future by
terrestrial radio broadcast stations either on existing or alternate
broadcasting frequencies, and the FCC has stated that it will consider making
changes to its rules to permit AM and FM radio stations to offer digital sound
following industry analysis of technical standards. In addition, the FCC has
authorized an additional 100 kHz of bandwidth for the AM band and has allotted
frequencies in this new band to certain existing AM station licensees that
applied for migration to the expanded AM band, subject to the requirement that
at the end of a transition period, those licensees return to the FCC either the
license for their existing AM band station or the license for the expanded AM
band station.

We cannot predict what other matters might be considered in the future by
the FCC, nor can we assess in advance what impact, if any, the implementation of
any of these proposals or changes might have on our business.

We employ a number of on-air personalities and generally enter into
employment agreements with these personalities to protect our interests in those
relationships that we believe to be valuable. The loss of some of these
personalities could result in a short-term loss of audience share, but we do not
believe that the loss would have a material adverse effect on our business.

FEDERAL REGULATION OF RADIO BROADCASTING

The radio broadcasting industry is subject to extensive and changing
regulation of, among other things, program content, advertising content,
technical operations and business and employment practices. The ownership,
operation and sale of radio stations are subject to the jurisdiction of the FCC.
Among other things, the FCC:

- assigns frequency bands for broadcasting;

- determines the particular frequencies, locations and operating power of
stations;

- issues, renews, revokes and modifies station licenses;

- determines whether to approve changes in ownership or control of station
licenses;

- regulates equipment used by stations; and

- adopts and implements regulations and policies that directly affect the
ownership, operation and employment practices of stations.

The FCC has the power to impose penalties for violations of its rules or
the Communications Act, including the imposition of monetary forfeitures, the
issuance of

61
<PAGE> 65

short-term licenses, the imposition of a condition on the renewal of a license,
and the revocation of operating authority.

The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the
Communications Act and of specific FCC regulations and policies. The summary is
not a comprehensive listing of all of the regulations and policies affecting
radio stations. Reference should be made to the Communications Act, FCC rules,
and the public notices and rulings of the FCC for further information concerning
the nature and extent of federal regulation of radio stations.

FCC LICENSES. Radio stations operate pursuant to renewable broadcasting
licenses that are ordinarily granted by the FCC for maximum terms of eight
years. The FCC licenses for our stations are held by some of our subsidiaries.
During the periods when renewal applications are pending, petitions to deny
license renewals can be filed by interested parties, including members of the
public. The FCC is required to hold hearings on a station's renewal application
if a substantial or material question of fact exists as to whether the station
has served the public interest, convenience and necessity. If, as a result of an
evidentiary hearing, the FCC determines that the licensee has failed to meet
certain requirements and that no mitigating factors justify the imposition of a
lesser sanction, then the FCC may deny a license renewal application.
Historically, FCC licenses have generally been renewed. We have no reason to
believe that our licenses will not be renewed in the ordinary course, although
there can be no assurance to that effect. The non-renewal of one or more of our
licenses could have a material adverse effect on our business.

The following table sets forth the market, call letters, FCC license
classification, antenna height above average terrain ("HAAT"), power, frequency
and FCC license expiration date (a station may continue to operate beyond the
expiration date if a timely filed license renewal application is pending) of
each of the stations that we will own or operate upon the consummation of the
Sinclair acquisition. The table does not give effect to the required divestiture
of three Kansas City stations.

* Not applicable for AM transmission facilities.
(1) Metropolitan market served; city of license may differ.
(2) Pursuant to FCC rules and regulations, many AM radio stations are licensed
to operate at a reduced power during the nighttime broadcasting hours, which
results in reducing the radio station's coverage during the nighttime hours
of operation. Both power ratings are shown, where applicable. For FM
stations, the maximum effective radiated power in the main lobe is given.
(3) KKGM-AM also has a construction permit to broadcast with call letters
KBJC-AM at 1660 kHz in the expanded AM band with 10 kw-D and 1 kw-N. The FCC
rules require that at the end of a five year transition period we must elect
to operate on either the 1250 kHz frequency or the 1660 kHz frequency and
surrender the other frequency to the FCC.
(4) Station to be acquired upon consummation of the Sinclair acquisition.
(5) All stations in this market to be acquired upon consummation of the Sinclair
acquisition.
(6) WSKY-FM has operated since June 1998 with the facilities shown. A license
application for these facilities has been filed with the FCC.

TRANSFERS OR ASSIGNMENT OF LICENSES. The Communications Act prohibits the
assignment of broadcast licenses or the transfer of control of a broadcast
licensee without the prior approval of the FCC. In determining whether to grant
such approval, the FCC considers a number of factors pertaining to the licensee
(and proposed licensee), including:

- compliance with the various rules limiting common ownership of media
properties in a given market;

- the "character" of the licensee and those persons holding "attributable"
interests in the licensee; and

- compliance with the Communications Act's limitations on alien ownership
as well as compliance with other FCC regulations and policies.

To obtain FCC consent to assign or transfer control of a broadcast license,
appropriate applications must be filed with the FCC. If the application involves
a "substantial change" in ownership or control, the application must be placed
on public notice for not less than 30 days during which time petitions to deny
or other objections against the application may be filed by interested parties,
including members of the public. If the application does not involve a
"substantial change" in ownership or control, it is a "pro forma" application.
The "pro forma" application is nevertheless subject to having informal
objections filed against it. When passing on an assignment or transfer
application, the FCC is prohibited from considering whether the public interest
might be served by an assignment or transfer of the

64
<PAGE> 68

broadcast license to any party other than the assignee or transferee specified
in the application.

MULTIPLE OWNERSHIP RULES. The Communications Act and FCC rules impose
specific limits on the number of commercial radio stations an entity can own in
a single market. These rules preclude us from acquiring certain stations we
might otherwise seek to acquire, including the acquisition of more than one
additional radio station in Kansas City, where we already own seven stations.
The rules also effectively prevent us from selling stations in a market to a
buyer that has reached its ownership limit in the market. The local radio
ownership rules are as follows:

- in markets with 45 or more commercial radio stations, ownership is
limited to eight commercial stations, no more than five of which can be
either AM or FM;

- in markets with 30 to 44 commercial radio stations, ownership is limited
to seven commercial stations, no more than four of which can be either AM
or FM;

- in markets with 15 to 29 commercial radio stations, ownership is limited
to six commercial stations, no more than four of which can be either AM
or FM; and

- in markets with 14 or fewer commercial radio stations, ownership is
limited to five commercial stations or no more than 50% of the market's
total, whichever is lower, and no more than three of which can be either
AM or FM.

The FCC is also reportedly considering proposing a policy that would give
special review to a proposed transaction if it would enable a single owner to
attain a high degree of revenue concentration in a market.

In addition to the limits on the number of radio stations that a single
owner may own, the FCC's radio/television cross-ownership rule prohibits, absent
a waiver, the same owner from owning a radio broadcast station and a television
broadcast station in the same geographic market, and the FCC's
broadcast/newspaper cross-ownership rule prohibits the same owner from owning a
broadcast station and a daily newspaper in the same geographic market. The FCC
recently revised its radio/television cross-ownership rule to allow for greater
common ownership of television and radio stations. The revised rule is not yet
in effect. When it is effective, the revised radio/television cross-ownership
rule will permit a single owner to own up to two television stations, consistent
with the FCC's rules on common ownership of television stations, together with
one radio station in all markets. In addition, an owner will be permitted to own
additional radio stations, not to exceed the local ownership limits for the
market, as follows:

- in markets where 20 media voices will remain, an owner may own an
additional 5 radio stations, or, if the owner only has one television
station, an additional 6 radio stations; and

- in markets where 10 media voices will remain, an owner may own an
additional 3 radio stations.

A "media voice" includes each independently-owned, full power television and
radio station and each daily newspaper, plus one voice for all cable television
systems operating in the market.

The FCC generally applies its ownership limits to "attributable" interests
held by an individual, corporation, partnership or other association. In the
case of corporations directly

65
<PAGE> 69

or indirectly controlling broadcast licenses, the interests of officers,
directors and those who, directly or indirectly, have the right to vote 5% or
more of the corporation's voting stock are generally attributable. In addition,
certain passive investors are attributable if they hold 10% or more of the
corporation's voting stock, although recent FCC rule changes, when they go into
effect, will increase the threshold for these passive investors to 20%. If a
single individual or entity controls more than 50% of a corporation's voting
stock, however, the interests of other shareholders are generally not
attributable unless the shareholders are also officers or directors of the
corporation. David J. Berkman, one of our directors, is an officer and director
of a corporation that owns five radio stations which serve markets in Ohio and
West Virginia, and his interest in these radio stations constitutes an
attributable interest under the FCC rules.

The FCC recently adopted a new rule, known as the equity-debt-plus or EDP
rule that causes certain creditors or investors to be attributable owners of a
station, regardless of whether there is a single majority shareholder. Under
this new rule, a major programming supplier or a same-market owner will be an
attributable owner of a station if the supplier or owner holds debt or equity,
or both, in the station that is greater than 33% of the value of the station's
total debt plus equity. A major programming supplier includes any programming
supplier that provides more than 15% of the station's weekly programming hours.
A same-market owner includes any attributable owner of a media company,
including broadcast stations, cable television and newspapers, located in the
same market as the station, but only if the owner is attributable under an FCC
attribution rule other than the EDP rule. Both the current and the revised
attribution rules limit the number of radio stations we may acquire or own in
any market.

The Communications Act prohibits the issuance or holding of broadcast
licenses by aliens, including any corporation if more than 20% of its capital
stock is owned or voted by aliens. In addition, the FCC may prohibit any
corporation from holding a broadcast license if the corporation is directly or
indirectly controlled by any other corporation of which more than 25% of the
capital stock is owned of record or voted by aliens, if the FCC finds that the
prohibition is in the public interest. Our articles of incorporation prohibit
the ownership, voting and transfer of our capital stock in violation of the FCC
restrictions, and prohibit the issuance of capital stock or the voting rights
such capital stock represents to or for the account of aliens or corporations
otherwise subject to domination or control by aliens in excess of the FCC
limits. The articles of incorporation authorize our board of directors to
enforce these prohibitions. In addition, the articles of incorporation provide
that shares of our capital stock determined by our board of directors to be
owned beneficially by an alien or an entity directly or indirectly owned by
aliens in whole or in part shall be subject to redemption by us by action of the
board of directors to the extent necessary, in the judgment of the board of
directors, to comply with these alien ownership restrictions.

TIME BROKERAGE AGREEMENTS. Over the past few years, a number of radio
stations have entered into what have commonly been referred to as time brokerage
agreements. While these agreements may take varying forms, under a typical time
brokerage agreement, separately owned and licensed radio stations agree to enter
into cooperative arrangements of varying sorts, subject to compliance with the
requirements of antitrust laws and with FCC's rules and policies. Under these
arrangements, separately-owned stations could agree to function cooperatively in
programming, advertising sales and similar matters, subject to the requirement
that the licensee of each station maintain independent control over the
programming and operations of its own station. One typical type of time

66
<PAGE> 70

brokerage agreement is a programming agreement between two separately-owned
radio stations serving a common service area, whereby the licensee of one
station provides substantial portions of the broadcast programming for airing on
the other licensee's station, subject to ultimate editorial and other controls
being exercised by the latter licensee, and sells advertising time during those
program segments.

The FCC's rules provide that a radio station that brokers more than 15% of
the weekly broadcast time on another station serving the same market will be
considered to have an attributable ownership interest in the brokered station
for purposes of FCC's local radio ownership limits. As a result, in a market
where we own a radio station, we would not be permitted to enter into a time
brokerage agreement with another radio station in the same market if we could
not own the brokered station under the local ownership rules, unless our
programming on the brokered station constituted 15% or less of the brokered
station's programming time on a weekly basis. The FCC has recently revised this
rule so that, when the revised rule takes effect, the attribution for radio time
brokerage agreements will apply for all of the FCC's multiple ownership rules,
as well as its local radio ownership rules. FCC rules also prohibit a broadcast
station from duplicating more than 25% of its programming on another station in
the same broadcast service (i.e., AM-AM or FM-FM) through a time brokerage
agreement where the brokered and brokering stations which it owns or programs
serve substantially the same area.

PROGRAMMING AND OPERATION. The Communications Act requires broadcasters to
serve the "public interest." The FCC gradually has relaxed or eliminated many of
the more formalized procedures it had developed in the past to promote the
broadcast of certain types of programming responsive to the needs of a station's
community of license. A licensee continues to be required, however, to present
programming that is responsive to issues of the station's community of license
and to maintain records demonstrating this responsiveness. Complaints from
listeners concerning a station's programming often will be considered by the FCC
when it evaluates renewal applications of a licensee, although listener
complaints may be filed at any time, are required to be maintained in the
station's public file and generally may be considered by the FCC at any time.
Stations also must pay regulatory and application fees and follow various rules
promulgated under the Communications Act that regulate, among other things,
political advertising, sponsorship identifications, the advertisement of
contests and lotteries, obscene and indecent broadcasts, and technical
operations, including limits on human exposure to radio frequency radiation. In
addition, the FCC rules formerly required that licensees develop and implement
programs designed to promote equal employment opportunities and submit reports
to the FCC with respect to these matters on an annual basis and in connection
with a renewal application. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia has declared some of these employment rules unconstitutional. The FCC
recently initiated a rulemaking proceeding to reestablish its employment
regulations.

PROPOSED AND RECENT CHANGES. Congress and the FCC may in the future
consider and adopt new laws, regulations and policies regarding a wide variety
of matters that could (1) affect, directly or indirectly, the operation,
ownership and profitability of our radio stations, (2) result in the loss of
audience share and advertising revenues for our radio stations, and (3) affect
our ability to acquire additional radio stations or to finance those
acquisitions. Such matters may include:

- regulatory fees, spectrum use fees, or other fees on FCC licenses;

- foreign ownership of broadcast licenses;

67
<PAGE> 71

- restatement in revised form of FCC's equal employment opportunity rules
and revisions to the FCC's rules relating to political broadcasting;

- technical and frequency allocation matters;

- proposals to restrict or prohibit the advertising of beer, wine and other
alcoholic beverages on radio; and

- changes in the FCC's cross-interest, multiple ownership and attribution
policies.

The FCC currently is considering authorizing the use of In-Band
On-Channel(TM) technology for FM radio stations. In-Band On-Channel technology
would permit an FM station to transmit radio programming in both analog and
digital formats, or in digital only formats, using the bandwidth that the radio
station is currently licensed to use. It is unclear what regulations the FCC
will adopt regarding In-Band On-Channel technology and what effect such
regulations would have on our business or the operations of its radio stations.

The FCC is considering a proposal to authorize the operation of low power
radio and "microradio" within the existing FM band. Low power radio and
microradio would operate at power levels below that of full power FM radio
stations, such as those we own. The FCC has proposed that low power radio and
microradio stations not be subject to the same level of regulation to which full
power radio stations are subject. We cannot predict the outcome of this FCC
proceeding or what effect, including interference effect, that low power radio
and microradio would have on the operations of our radio stations or on our
ability to engage in digital transmission of our radio programming.

Finally, the FCC has adopted procedures for the auction of broadcast
spectrum in circumstances where two or more parties have filed for new or major
change applications which are mutually exclusive. Such procedures may limit our
efforts to modify or expand the broadcast signals of our stations.

We cannot predict what other matters might be considered in the future by
the FCC or Congress, nor can we judge in advance what impact, if any, the
implementation of any of these proposals or changes might have on our business.

FEDERAL ANTITRUST LAWS. The agencies responsible for enforcing the federal
antitrust laws, the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice, may
investigate certain acquisitions. We cannot predict the outcome of any specific
Department of Justice or Federal Trade Commission investigation. Any decision by
the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of Justice to challenge a
proposed acquisition could affect our ability to consummate the acquisition or
to consummate it on the proposed terms.

For an acquisition meeting certain size thresholds, the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act requires the parties to file Notification and Report Forms with the Federal
Trade Commission and the Department of Justice and to observe specified waiting
period requirements before consummating the acquisition. If the investigating
agency raises substantive issues in connection with a proposed transaction, then
the parties frequently engage in lengthy discussions or negotiations with the
investigating agency concerning possible means of addressing those issues,
including restructuring the proposed acquisition or divesting assets. In
addition, the investigating agency could file suit in federal court to enjoin
the acquisition or to require the divestiture of assets, among other remedies.
Acquisitions that are not required to be reported under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Act may be investigated by the Federal Trade Commission or the Department of
Justice under the antitrust laws before or

68
<PAGE> 72

after consummation. In addition, private parties may under certain circumstances
bring legal action to challenge an acquisition under the antitrust laws.

The consummation of the Sinclair acquisition is subject to the notification
filing requirements and applicable waiting periods of the Department of Justice
and the Federal Trade Commission, and we filed the applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino
notices. On September 27, 1999, the applicable waiting period for the
multi-market agreement expired. However, on September 24, 1999, we received a
"second request" from the Department of Justice with respect to the Kansas City
agreement and therefore the Department of Justice is currently conducting a more
detailed investigation of our acquisition of the four stations from Sinclair in
the Kansas City market. Although we believe that the concerns of the Department
of Justice will be resolved by our disposition of three stations in the Kansas
City market that we are required to make in order to comply with FCC rules, we
cannot assure you that this will be the case.

As part of its increased scrutiny of radio station acquisitions, the
Department of Justice has stated publicly that it believes that local marketing
agreements, joint sales agreements, time brokerage agreements and other similar
agreements customarily entered into in connection with radio station transfers
could violate the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act if such agreements take effect prior to
the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act.
Furthermore, the Department of Justice has noted that joint sales agreements may
raise antitrust concerns under Section 1 of the Sherman Act and has challenged
joint sales agreements in certain locations. The Department of Justice also has
stated publicly that it has established certain revenue and audience share
concentration benchmarks with respect to radio station acquisitions, above which
a transaction may receive additional antitrust scrutiny. However, to date, the
Department of Justice has also investigated transactions that do not meet or
exceed these benchmarks, and has cleared transactions that do exceed these
benchmarks. There can be no assurance of what action the Department of Justice
may take with respect to our acquisition of four stations from Sinclair in the
Kansas City market.

EMPLOYEES

On August 31, 1999, we had a staff of 838 full-time employees and 370
part-time employees. We are a party to collective bargaining agreements with the
American Federation of Television and Radio Artists, which we call AFTRA, which
apply to some of our programming personnel and with the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers which applies to some of our engineering
personnel. These collective bargaining agreements expire at various times over
the next three years. Our Boston AFTRA collective bargaining agreement, as
extended, expired on September 14, 1999. We are currently renegotiating this
agreement. However, we cannot predict the outcome of these negotiations. We
believe that our relations with our employees are good.

ENVIRONMENTAL

As the owner, lessee or operator of various real properties and facilities,
we are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and
regulations. Historically, compliance with these laws and regulations has not
had a material adverse effect on our business. There can be no assurance,
however, that compliance with existing or new environmental laws and regulations
will not require us to make significant expenditures of funds.

69
<PAGE> 73

SEASONALITY

Seasonal revenue fluctuations are common in the radio broadcasting industry
and are due primarily to fluctuations in advertising expenditures by retailers.
Our revenues and broadcast cash flows are typically lowest in the first calendar
quarter.

PROPERTIES AND FACILITIES

The types of properties required to support each of our radio stations
include offices, studios and transmitter/antenna sites. We typically lease our
studio and office space with lease terms that expire in five to ten years,
although we do own some of our facilities. A station's studios are generally
housed with its offices in downtown or business districts. We generally consider
our facilities to be suitable and of adequate size for our current and intended
purposes. We own a majority of our main transmitter and antenna sites and lease
the remainder of our transmitter/antenna sites with lease terms that expire,
including renewal options, in periods generally ranging up to twenty years. The
transmitter/antenna site for each station is generally located so as to provide
maximum market coverage, consistent with the station's FCC license. In general,
we do not anticipate difficulties in renewing facility or transmitter/antenna
site leases or in leasing additional space or sites if required.

We own substantially all of our other equipment, consisting principally of
transmitting antennae, transmitters, studio equipment and general office
equipment. The towers, antennae and other transmission equipment used by our
stations are generally in good condition, although opportunities to upgrade
facilities are continuously reviewed. Substantially all of the property that we
own secures our borrowings under our credit facility.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We currently and from time to time are involved in litigation incidental to
the conduct of our business, but we are not a party to any lawsuit or proceeding
which, in the opinion of management, is likely to have a material adverse effect
on us.

We entered into a preliminary agreement on February 6, 1996, to acquire the
assets of radio station KWOD-FM, Sacramento, California, from Royce
International Broadcasting Corporation, subject to approval by the FCC, for a
purchase price of $25.0 million. Notwithstanding our efforts to pursue this
transaction, the seller was nonresponsive. On July 28, 1999, we commenced a
legal action seeking to enforce this agreement, and subsequently the seller
filed a cross-complaint against us asking for damages, an injunction and costs
and filed a separate action against our president asking for treble damages, an
injunction, attorney's fees and costs. Our by-laws provide for us to indemnify
our president for this claim. We intend to pursue our legal action against the
seller and seek dismissal of the claims filed by the seller. Accordingly, we
cannot determine if and when the transaction might occur.

THE SINCLAIR ACQUISITION

OVERVIEW

In August 1999, we agreed to purchase 46 radio stations from various
subsidiaries of Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. for a total purchase price of
$824.5 million. Our arrangement with Sinclair consists of two separate asset
purchase agreements -- one for Sinclair's four Kansas City stations, for which
the purchase price is $122.0 million, and one for the remaining 42 stations in
eight other markets and other assets that we are acquiring, for which the
purchase price is $702.5 million. The asset purchase agreements contain various
representations and warranties of the parties, including representations and
warranties regarding FCC and other government licenses or consents. We have
placed a $50.0 million letter of credit in favor of Sinclair in escrow with
First Union National Bank to secure our obligations under these agreements.
However, in the event of our default, our total exposure under both agreements
is limited to the $50.0 million letter of credit, approximately $7.0 million of
which is allocated to the Kansas City agreement.

In conjunction with the Sinclair acquisition, federal regulations require
us to divest three stations in the Kansas City market, where we already own
seven stations and Sinclair owns four stations. We are seeking to swap three
Kansas City stations for stations in other markets, or if we are unable to
consummate a swap, we may sell these stations for cash or pursue a combination
of swaps and sales. We have not yet determined which Kansas City stations we
will divest. In order to comply with federal regulations, we may put these
stations into a trust for our benefit with an independent trustee until the
stations are conveyed to a third party.

As part of the multi-market agreement, we are acquiring 300,000 shares of
common stock, at $5.00 per share, in USA Digital Radio, Inc., a developer of
digital audio broadcasting technology, which will increase our total holdings in
this company to 500,000 shares of common stock.

CLOSING CONDITIONS

Completion of the acquisitions is subject to various conditions including
(1) the receipt of FCC consent to the assignment of the station licenses to
Entercom, (2) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods
under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Act and (3) the receipt of consents to the
assignment of certain contracts relating to the stations to Entercom. An
application seeking FCC approval was filed on August 27, 1999, and we filed the
applicable Hart-Scott-Rodino notices with the Federal Trade Commission and the
Department of Justice on August 27, 1999. On September 27, 1999, the applicable
waiting period for the multi-market agreement expired. However, on September 24,
1999, we received a "second request" from the Department of Justice with respect
to the Kansas City agreement and therefore the Department of Justice is
currently conducting a more detailed investigation of our acquisition of the
four stations from Sinclair in the Kansas City market. Although we believe that
the concerns of the Department of Justice will be resolved by our disposition of
three stations in the Kansas City market that we are required to make in order
to comply with FCC rules, we cannot assure you that this will be the case.

The multi-market agreement allocates the purchase price on a market by
market basis and provides that a closing with respect to one market may occur,
regardless of whether the closing conditions for one or more other markets have
been met. Therefore, it is possible that one or more markets may close in a
series of separate transactions, although we do not expect that this will be the
case for any market other than Kansas City.

71
<PAGE> 75

INDEMNIFICATION

The agreements provide for standard provisions regarding indemnification of
the parties to the agreement, including a threshold of $1.0 million that must be
satisfied before Sinclair is obligated to make indemnification payments to us
for our losses in excess of $500,000. Sinclair's indemnity obligations under the
agreements are capped at $50.0 million. Sinclair's representations and
warranties generally survive for a period of 12 months after closing, and we
must make a claim for a breach of a representation or warranty during this
survival period.

PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENTS

Sinclair operates two New Orleans stations, WLTS-FM and WTKL-FM, pursuant
to a time brokerage agreement with Phase II Broadcasting, Inc., which commenced
in November 1997. Sinclair has entered into an agreement with Phase II to
acquire the assets of these stations for $29.0 million plus an amount determined
by a formula not to exceed $500,000. If Sinclair has not acquired the Phase II
stations prior to the closing of the New Orleans market, the purchase price of
the Sinclair acquisition will be decreased by the purchase price that we would
be required to pay to acquire the Phase II stations, subject to adjustment, and
we will assume Sinclair's rights and obligations under the acquisition agreement
with Phase II.

Sinclair provides sales and marketing services to two
Greenville/Spartanburg stations, WOLI-FM and WOLT-FM, pursuant to a joint
services agreement with Palm Broadcasting, Inc. Sinclair has exercised an option
to acquire these stations in exchange for an amount equal to the outstanding
amount of principal and interest due under a loan agreement between Palm
Broadcasting and River City Broadcasting Company, L.P. As of June 30, 1999, the
principal amount of the loan was $3.0 million plus accrued interest. If Sinclair
has not acquired the Palm stations prior to the closing of the Greenville
market, the purchase price of the Sinclair acquisition will be decreased by the
purchase price that we would be required to pay to acquire the Palm stations,
subject to adjustment, and we will assume Sinclair's rights and obligations
under the acquisition agreement with Palm.

We have agreed to spend a maximum of $2.0 million in addition to the
purchase price on capital expenditures that Sinclair incurs in connection with
the build-out of certain studio/office space in Buffalo. We have also agreed to
purchase $5.0 million of advertising time on television stations owned and/or
programmed by Sinclair and its affiliates at prevailing rates over the next five
years.

EMPLOYMENT MATTERS

Generally, we have agreed to offer employment to the employees of the
Sinclair stations. Sinclair has agreed generally not to hire any of its former
employees for a period of 12 months after they are hired by us.

FINANCIAL PENALTIES

Pursuant to the multi-market agreement, if the closing on all stations has
not occurred within 135 days after public notice that the applications for
consent to assignment of the Sinclair licenses have been accepted for filing by
the FCC, the purchase price with respect to the stations which have not closed
shall increase 0.75% if the closing has not occurred due to the failure to
receive any required regulatory consent based on facts relating to us or our
affiliates. The purchase price for each such market will continue to increase
0.75%

72
<PAGE> 76

at the end of each 30 day period thereafter until the later of its closing or
the termination of the agreement.

Pursuant to the Kansas City agreement, if closing on all stations has not
occurred within 150 days after public notice that the applications for consent
to assignment of the Sinclair licenses have been accepted for filing by the FCC,
the purchase price shall increase 0.75% if the closing has not occurred due to
the failure to receive any required regulatory consent based on facts relating
to us or our affiliates. The purchase price will continue to increase 0.75% each
30 day period thereafter until the later of the closing or the termination of
the agreement.

TERMINATION

As long as Sinclair is not in material default of the multi-market
agreement, Sinclair may terminate the multi-market agreement with respect to
markets not then closed (1) on the date that would otherwise be the date for
closing all the markets not then closed, if we breach our representations,
warranties or covenants or fail to make required deliveries under the
contract(s), (2) one year after the date that the agreement is signed, if all of
the stations under that agreement have not closed due to the failure to receive
any required regulatory approval and such failure results from facts relating to
us or our affiliates, (3) on or after two years after the date that the
agreement is signed, if all of the stations under that agreement have not closed
due to the failure to receive any necessary regulatory approval and such failure
is due to facts relating to Sinclair or its affiliates or (4) on or after
eighteen months after the date that the agreement is signed, with respect to the
stations under that agreement that have not closed for any reason other than as
provided in clause (3). In addition, Sinclair may terminate the multi-market
agreement if we are in default in any material respect and the default is not
cured within 30 days. Sinclair's sole remedy upon rightful termination of the
multi-market agreement for a breach of the agreement by us or a failure to
receive any necessary regulatory approval by August 18, 2000, based on facts
relating to us or our affiliates with respect to the markets that have not
already closed at the time of such termination, is their receipt, as liquidated
damages of approximately $43.0 million of the $50.0 million letter of credit,
less any amount of the letter of credit released to us upon the earlier closing
of any other market (see below). Upon each closing of a market, a pro rata
portion of the $50.0 million allocable to that market shall be released to us;
provided that 45% of the value of all of Sinclair stations has closed. The
Kansas City agreement has substantially the same termination provisions as the
multi-market agreement, except that approximately $7.0 million of the $50.0
million letter of credit is allocated to the Kansas City Agreement.

We have the right to terminate either agreement with respect to any market
not then closed (1) if certain conditions to closing that agreement are not met;
(2) if Sinclair is in default in any material respect with regard to the
agreement being terminated and such default is not cured within 30 days; (3)
fifteen months after the date the agreement is signed if all of the markets
under that agreement have not closed due to the failure to receive regulatory
approval due to facts relating to Sinclair or its affiliates or (4) upon the
occurrence of the conditions set forth in clause (4) above, in each case without
further obligation to Sinclair. In such an event we will obtain the release of
any remaining balance of the letter of credit allocable to such agreement. In
the event of a default by Sinclair, we are entitled to specific performance
and/or damages.

DESCRIPTION OF THE TIDES

Concurrently with this offering, we and a trust we own are also offering
$125 million in stated liquidation amount of TIDES by means of a separate
prospectus.

ISSUER

Entercom Communications Capital Trust, a Delaware statutory business trust,
will offer the TIDES. Entercom will acquire common securities of the trust in an
aggregate liquidation amount equal to approximately 3% of the total capital of
the trust. The trust will use the gross proceeds of the TIDES offering and the
sale of its common securities to us to buy convertible subordinated debentures
from us. Substantially all of the assets of the trust will consist of our
convertible subordinated debentures.

DISTRIBUTIONS

Distributions on the TIDES will accrue from the date the trust issued the
TIDES, and subject to the distribution deferral provisions described below, the
trust will pay those distributions at the annual rate of 6.25% of the stated
liquidation amount of $50 per each of the TIDES quarterly in arrears on each
March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31, commencing December 31, 1999.

DISTRIBUTION DEFERRAL PROVISIONS

The trust will be able to pay distributions on the TIDES only if and to the
extent it receives interest payments from us on the convertible subordinated
debentures. We have the right, at any time, to defer the interest payments for
successive periods not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters. The trust will defer
distributions on the TIDES during any deferral period, but the distributions
will continue to accumulate quarterly until the end of the deferral period. We
have agreed not to declare or pay any dividend on our capital stock, including
our Class A common stock, during any deferral period.

CONVERSION INTO CLASS A COMMON STOCK

Each holder may convert each of its TIDES into our Class A common stock at
the initial rate of 1.1364 shares per each TIDES (equivalent to an initial
conversion price of $44.00 per share of Class A common stock). In connection
with any conversion, the property trustee of the trust will exchange those TIDES
for a corresponding amount of convertible subordinated debentures held by the
trust and immediately convert those debentures into shares of our Class A common
stock.

MATURITY

Although the TIDES do not have a stated maturity, they are subject to
mandatory redemption upon the repayment or redemption, in whole or in part, of
the convertible subordinated debentures. The convertible subordinated debentures
will mature on September 30, 2014.

74
<PAGE> 78

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

We may redeem the convertible subordinated debentures, in whole or in part,
after October 3, 2002 at a redemption price equal to 103.126% of the principal
amount of the debentures, declining ratably to 100% of the principal amount of
the TIDES after September 30, 2006.

GUARANTEE

Through a series of related agreements, we will fully and unconditionally
guarantee all of the trust's obligations under the TIDES.

MANAGEMENT

The following table provides information concerning our directors and

1998 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN

We have adopted the 1998 Equity Compensation Plan, effective as of June 24,
1998. The 1998 Equity Compensation Plan provides for grants to employees of ours
and our subsidiaries (including employees who are officers or directors), our
non-employee directors and certain advisors and consultants who perform services
for us and our subsidiaries of:

- incentive stock options;

- "nonqualified stock options" that are not intended to qualify as
incentive stock options;

- restricted stock; and

- stock appreciation rights.

Only shares of Class A common stock may be issued under the 1998 Equity
Compensation Plan.

GENERAL. Subject to adjustment, we may issue shares of Class A common
stock up to an amount equal to 10% of our outstanding Class A, Class B and Class
C common stock under the Plan. As of September 10, 1999, we have granted and
have currently outstanding 11,112 shares of restricted stock and nonqualified
stock options to purchase 838,842 shares of Class A common stock having a
weighted average exercise price of

79
<PAGE> 83

$21.58 per share. We have not issued any incentive stock options or stock
appreciation rights. The number of shares for which incentive stock options may
be issued under the Plan may not exceed 1,850,000 shares, subject to adjustment,
and the number of shares of restricted stock that may be issued under the Plan
may not exceed 925,000 shares, subject to adjustment.

ADMINISTRATION OF THE 1998 EQUITY COMPENSATION PLAN. The Plan is
administered and interpreted by our compensation committee. Subject to the
ratification or approval by the board of directors, if the board retains the
right, the committee has the sole authority to:

- determine the individuals that shall be given awards;

- determine the terms of the awards;

- delegate to our Chief Executive Officer, Joseph M. Field, the authority
to make grants to employees; and

- deal with any other matters arising under the Plan.

OPTIONS. The exercise price of any incentive stock option will not be less
than the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the date of grant, or
not less than 110% of the fair market value of the common stock in the case of
an employee who owns more than 10% of our Class A, Class B and Class C common
stock. The exercise price of a nonqualified stock option may be greater than,
equal to or less than the fair market value of our Class A common stock on the
date of grant. The exercise period of an option may not exceed ten years from
the date of grant, and the exercise period of an incentive stock option granted
to an employee who owns more than 10% of the Class A, Class B and Class C common
stock may not exceed five years from the date of grant. The participant may pay
the exercise price in cash or, with the approval of the committee, by delivering
shares of common stock owned by the participant and having a fair market value
on the date of exercise equal to the exercise price or by any other method that
the committee approves.

EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

We have adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, effective as of January
28, 1999. A total of up to 1,850,000 shares of our Class A common stock may be
issued under the employee plan, subject to adjustment. Under the employee plan,
we will withhold a specified percentage (not to exceed 10%) of the compensation
paid to each participant, and the amount withheld (and any additional amount
contributed by the participant) will be used to purchase our Class A common
stock on the last day of each purchase period. The purchase price will be
determined by the employee plan committee and shall not be less than 85% of the
value of the stock on the last day of the purchase period. The length of each
purchase period shall be specified by the employee plan committee. The first
purchase period began on April 1, 1999. The maximum value of shares that a
participant in the employee plan may purchase during any calendar year is
$25,000.

broadcast business that we compete with in any standard metropolitan statistical
area in which we are then operating a broadcast property.

EXECUTIVE OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS. We have entered into employment
agreements with David J. Field and John C. Donlevie. Each of these employment
agreements provides that the employee may be terminated at will by either party

which we compete with; provided, however, if Mr. Fisher is terminated without

from serving in a competitive business for a period of three months plus any
time for which he receives a cash payment.

various matters.

Michael R. Hannon, one of our directors, is a general partner of Chase

promissory note from us for $25 million. The convertible subordinated note was
converted into 2,327,500 shares of our Class A common stock and 1,995,669 shares
of our Class C common stock. Chase Capital was a selling shareholder in our
initial public offering in January 1999 and received net proceeds of $49.2
million from the sale of all of its Class A common stock.

On May 21, 1996, we entered into a registration rights agreement, dated as
of May 21, 1996, with Chase Equity Associates, L.P., an affiliate of Chase

the right to require us, subject to certain limitations, to effect one "demand"
registration statement under the Securities Act for the sale of their shares of
our common stock. Chase Equity Associates is the beneficial owner of all of our
outstanding Class C common stock.

On May 6, 1999, Chase Equity Associates entered into an agreement with the
underwriters of the initial public offering in which (1) the underwriters
released Chase Equity Associates from their 180 day lock-up agreement with
respect to the sale of 300,000 shares of Class A common stock and (2) Chase
Equity Associates agreed that all further sales or dispositions of Class A
common stock, except sales pursuant to the registration rights agreement, shall
be made through a nationally recognized underwriter that we designate.

Some of our FCC licenses are currently owned by ECI License Company, LP, a
limited partnership in which we have been the general partner, owning a 99%
interest. On January 22, 1999, one of our wholly owned subsidiaries purchased
the remaining 1% interest from ECI Investors Corporation, a company that was
owned by our shareholders prior to our initial public offering, excluding Chase
Capital, in the same percentage as their ownership in our company, for $3.4
million. Of the $3.4 million, Joseph M. Field, our Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer received approximately $1.4 million. Other shareholders

We have reserved for issuance under our 1998 Equity Compensation Plan shares of
Class A common stock equal to 10% of the number of total outstanding shares of
common stock of all classes. We also have 1,850,000 shares of Class A common
stock reserved for issuance under our Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

The following summary describes the material terms of our capital stock.
However, you should refer to the actual terms of our capital stock contained in
our amended and restated articles of incorporation and amended and restated
bylaws and to the applicable provisions of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation
Law of 1988.

COMMON STOCK

The rights of holders of the common stock are identical in all respects,
except as discussed below. All the outstanding shares of Class A common stock,
Class B common stock and Class C common stock are, and the shares of Class A
common stock sold in this offering will be, upon issuance and payment of the
purchase price therefor, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.

DIVIDENDS. Subject to the right of the holders of any class of preferred
stock, holders of shares of common stock are entitled to receive dividends that
may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. No
dividend may be declared or paid in cash or property on any share of any class
of common stock unless simultaneously the same dividend is declared or paid on
each share of that and every other class of common stock; provided, that, in the
event of stock dividends, holders of a specific class of common stock shall be
entitled to receive only additional shares of that class.

VOTING RIGHTS. The Class A common stock and the Class B common stock vote
together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of shareholders.
Each share of Class A common stock is entitled to one vote and each share of
Class B common stock is entitled to ten votes, except:

(1) any share of Class B common stock not voted by either Joseph M. Field
or David J. Field, in their own right or pursuant to a proxy, is
entitled to one vote;

(2) the holders of Class A common stock, voting as a separate class, are
entitled to elect two Class A directors;

(3) each share of Class B common stock is entitled to one vote with respect
to any Going Private Transaction (defined as a "Rule 13e-3 transaction"
under the Exchange Act); and

(4) as required by law.

86
<PAGE> 90

David J. Berkman and Michael R. Hannon were designated Class A directors by
our board of directors and will serve until our next annual meeting of
shareholders, when the holders of the Class A common stock will elect the Class
A directors. The Class A directors serve one-year terms and must be "independent
directors." For this purpose, an "independent director" means a person who is
not an officer or employee of us or any of our subsidiaries, and who does not
have a relationship which, in the opinion of the board of directors, would
interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the
responsibilities of a director. Holders of common stock are not entitled to
cumulate votes in the election of directors.

LIQUIDATION RIGHTS. Upon our liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, the
holders of our common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets
available for distribution after payment in full to creditors and holders of our
preferred stock, if any.

CONVERSION OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK. Shares of Class A common stock owned
by a Regulated Entity (defined as either an entity that is a "bank holding
company" under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 or a non-bank subsidiary of
such an entity, or an entity that, pursuant to Section 8(a) of the International
Banking Act of 1978 is subject to the provisions of the Bank Holding Company
Act, or any non-bank subsidiary of such an entity), are convertible at any time,
at the option of the holder, into an equal number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Class C common stock. All conversion rights of Class A
common stock are subject to any necessary FCC approval.

CONVERSION, TRANSFERABILITY OF CLASS B COMMON STOCK. Shares of Class B
common stock are convertible at any time, at the option of the holder, into an
equal number of fully paid and non-assessable shares of Class A common stock.
All conversion rights of Class B common stock are subject to any necessary FCC
approval. Shares of Class B common stock transferred to a party other than
Joseph M. Field, David J. Field, a spouse or lineal descendant of either Joseph
M. Field or David J. Field or any spouse of such lineal descendant, a trustee of
a trust established for the benefit of any such persons or the estate of any
such persons are automatically converted into an equal number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Class A common stock.

CONVERSION, TRANSFERABILITY OF CLASS C COMMON STOCK. Shares of Class C
common stock are convertible at any time subject to certain restrictions, at the
option of the holder thereof, into an equal number of fully paid and
non-assessable shares of Class A common stock. A Regulated Entity may not
convert shares of Class C common stock into Class A common stock if, as a result
of such conversion it would own more than 4.99% of the Class A common stock
unless such conversion is permitted under our amended and restated articles of
incorporation or otherwise under the Banking Holding Company Act. All conversion
rights of Class C common stock are subject to any necessary FCC approval. In
general, shares of Class C common stock transferred to a party other than a
Regulated Entity are automatically converted into an equal number of fully paid
and non-assessable shares of Class A common stock. Shares of Class C common
stock may be transferred by a Regulated Entity under a limited set of
circumstances.

OTHER PROVISIONS. The holders of common stock are not entitled to
preemptive or similar rights.

PREFERRED STOCK

We are authorized to issue 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value
$.01 per share. Our board of directors, in its sole discretion, may designate
and issue one or more series of preferred stock from the authorized and unissued
shares of preferred stock.

87
<PAGE> 91

Subject to limitations imposed by law or our amended and restated articles of
incorporation, the board of directors is empowered to determine:

- the designation of and the number of shares constituting a series of
preferred stock;

- the dividend rate, if any, for the series;

- the terms and conditions of any voting and conversion rights for the
series, if any;

- the number of directors, if any, which the series shall be entitled to
elect;

- the amounts payable on the series upon our liquidation, dissolution or
winding-up;

- the redemption prices and terms applicable to the series, if any; and

- the preferences and relative rights among the series of preferred stock.

Such rights, preferences, privileges and limitations of preferred stock
could adversely affect the rights of holders of common stock. There are
currently no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

FOREIGN OWNERSHIP

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation restrict the ownership,
voting and transfer of our capital stock, including our common stock, in
accordance with the Communications Act and the rules of the FCC, which prohibit
the issuance of more than 25% of our outstanding capital stock (or more than 25%
of the voting rights it represents) to or for the account of aliens or
corporations otherwise subject to domination or control by aliens. In addition,
the amended and restated articles authorize our board of directors to take
action to enforce these prohibitions, including requiring redemptions of common
stock and placing a legend regarding restrictions on foreign ownership on the
certificates representing the common stock. See "Business -- Federal Regulation
of Radio Broadcasting -- Ownership Matters."

CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF OUR AMENDED AND RESTATED ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION AND
AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS

Our amended and restated articles of incorporation and amended and restated
bylaws include provisions that could have an anti-takeover effect. These
provisions are intended to preserve the continuity and stability of our board of
directors and the policies formulated by our board of directors. These
provisions are also intended to help ensure that the board of directors, if
confronted by a surprise proposal from a third party which has acquired a block
of our stock, will have sufficient time to review the proposal, to consider
appropriate alternatives to the proposal and to act in what it believes to be
the best interests of the shareholders.

The following is a summary of the provisions included in our amended and
restated articles of incorporation. However, you should refer to the actual
document. The board of directors has no current plans to formulate or effect
additional measures that could have an anti-takeover effect.

EXCULPATION. Directors and officers shall not be personally liable for
monetary damages (including, without limitation, any judgment, amount paid in
settlement, penalty, punitive damages or expense of any nature (including,
without limitation, attorneys' fees

88
<PAGE> 92

and disbursements)) for any action taken, or any failure to take any action,
unless (1) the director has breached or failed to perform the duties of his or
her office and (2) the breach or failure to perform constitutes self-dealing,
willful misconduct or recklessness.

INDEMNIFICATION. To the fullest extent permitted by the Pennsylvania
Business Corporation Law, we will indemnify any person who was, is, or is
threatened to be made, a party to a proceeding by reason of the fact that he or
she (1) is or was our director or officer or (2) while our director or officer,
is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, partner, venturer,
proprietor, trustee, employee, agent, or similar functionary of another foreign
or domestic corporation, partnership, joint venture, sole proprietorship, trust,
employee benefit plan or other enterprise.

BLANK CHECK PREFERRED STOCK. Our board of directors may authorize the
issuance of up to 25,000,000 shares of preferred stock in one or more classes or
series and may designate the dividend rate, voting rights and other rights,
preferences and restrictions of each such class or series. Our board of
directors has no present intention to issue any preferred stock; however, our
board of directors has the authority, without further shareholder approval, to
issue one or more series of preferred stock that could, depending on the terms
of such series, either impede or facilitate the completion of a merger, tender
offer or other takeover attempt. Although our board of directors is required to
make any determination to issue such stock based on its judgment as to the best
interests of our shareholders, our board of directors could act in a manner that
would discourage an acquisition attempt or other transaction that some, or a
majority, of the shareholders might believe to be in their best interests or in
which shareholders might receive a premium for their stock over the then market
price of such stock. Our board of directors does not intend to seek shareholder
approval prior to any issuance of such stock, unless otherwise required by law.

PENNSYLVANIA CONTROL-SHARE ACQUISITIONS LAW

We are subject to the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law. Generally,
subchapters 25E, F, G, H, I and J of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law
place procedural requirements and establish restrictions upon the acquisition of
voting shares of a corporation which would entitle the acquiring person to cast
or direct the casting of a certain percentage of votes in an election of
directors. Subchapter 25E of the PBCL provides generally that, if we were
involved in a "control transaction," our shareholders would have the right to
demand from a "controlling person or group" payment of the fair value of their
shares. For purposes of subchapter 25E, a "controlling person or group" is a
person or group of persons acting in concert that, through voting shares, has
voting power over at least 20% of the votes which our shareholders would be
entitled to cast in the election of directors. A control transaction arises, in
general, when a person or group acquires the status of a controlling person or
group.

In general, Subchapter 25F of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law
delays for five years and imposes conditions upon "business combinations"
between an "interested shareholder" and us. The term "business combination" is
defined broadly to include various merger, consolidation, division, exchange or
sale transactions, including transactions utilizing our assets for purchase
price amortization or refinancing purposes. An "interested shareholder," in
general, would be a beneficial owner of at least 20% of our voting shares.

In general, Subchapter 25G of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law
suspends the voting rights of the "control shares" of a shareholder that
acquires for the first time

89
<PAGE> 93

20% or more, 33 1/3% or more or 50% or more of our shares entitled to be voted
in an election of directors. The voting rights of the control shares generally
remain suspended until such time as our "disinterested" shareholders vote to
restore the voting power of the acquiring shareholder.

Subchapter 25H of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law provides
circumstances for our recovery of profits made upon the sale of our common stock
by a "controlling person or group" if the sale occurs within 18 months after the
controlling person or group became such and the common stock was acquired during
such 18 month period or within 24 months prior thereto. In general, for purposes
of Subchapter 25H, a "controlling person or group" is a person or group that (1)
has acquired, (2) offered to acquire or (3) publicly disclosed or caused to be
disclosed an intention to acquire voting power over shares that would entitle
such person or group to cast at least 20% of the votes that our shareholders
would be entitled to cast in the election of directors.

If our disinterested shareholders vote to restore the voting power of a
shareholder who acquires control shares subject to Subchapter 25G, we would then
be subject to subchapters 25I and J of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation
Law. Subchapter 25I generally provides for a minimum severance payment to
certain employees terminated within two years of such approval. Subchapter 25J,
in general, prohibits the abrogation of certain labor contracts prior to their
stated date of expiration.

The foregoing summary describes some of the material terms of certain
subchapters of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law. However, you should
refer to the actual statute.

TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR

The Transfer Agent and Registrar for the common stock is First Union
National Bank.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

The market price of our stock could decline due to the large number of
shares eligible for public sale upon consummation of the offering.

Upon completion of the offering, we will have 32,944,267 shares of Class A
common stock, 10,531,805 shares of Class B common stock and 1,695,669 shares of
Class C common stock issued and outstanding. Of these shares, 8,000,000 shares
of Class A common stock sold in this offering (plus any shares sold upon
exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option), the 13,627,500 shares sold
in our initial public offering in January 1999, approximately 300,000 shares of
Class A common stock sold into the public market since the initial public
offering and approximately 100,000 shares of unrestricted Class A common stock
will be freely transferable without restriction in the public market, except to
the extent that these shares have been acquired by our affiliates; resales of
shares acquired by affiliates are subject to restrictions under Rule 144 of the
Securities Act. In addition, upon conversion of the TIDES, the approximately
2,841,000 shares of Class A common stock into which the TIDES are convertible
will be freely transferable without restriction in the public market, except to
the extent that those shares are acquired by our affiliates and are therefore
subject to restrictions under Rule 144. The remaining shares of Class A common
stock and all shares of Class B common stock and Class C common stock were
issued in reliance on exemptions from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act, and these shares are "restricted" securities under Rule 144. The
number of "restricted" shares available for sale in the public market is limited
by the restrictions under Rule 144, although as to shares held by persons who
are not our affiliates, many of those restrictions do not apply.

Our directors, members of senior management, Chase Capital and some of our
shareholders have agreed pursuant to lock-up agreements not to sell or otherwise
dispose of shares representing approximately 10,500,000 shares of Class A common
stock, 10,531,805 shares of Class B common stock and 1,695,669 shares of Class C
common stock, other than shares sold pursuant to the over-allotment option in
this offering, for a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus without
the prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation. The
restricted securities will generally be available for sale in the open market,
subject to the lock-up agreements and the applicable requirements of Rule 144.

In general, under Rule 144, as currently in effect, a shareholder (or
shareholders whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned restricted
securities for at least one year (including persons who may be deemed
"affiliates" under Rule 144) is entitled to sell a number of shares within any
three-month period that does not exceed the greater of 1% of the then
outstanding shares of the class of common stock or the average weekly trading
volume of such stock during the four calendar weeks preceding such sale, subject
to certain manner of sale limitations. A shareholder who is deemed not to have
been an affiliate for at least three months prior to the date of sale and who
has beneficially owned restricted securities for at least two years would be
entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144 without regard to the volume or
manner of sale limitations described above.

</TABLE>

The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriters are obligated to
purchase all of the shares of Class A common stock in the offering if any are
purchased, other than those shares covered by the over-allotment option
described below. The underwriting agreement also provides that if an underwriter
defaults, the purchase commitments of non-defaulting underwriters may be
increased or the offering of the Class A common stock may be terminated.

Some of our shareholders have granted to the underwriters a 30-day option
to purchase on a pro rata basis up to 750,000 additional shares of Class A
common stock from these shareholders at the public offering price less
underwriting discounts and commissions. The option may be exercised only to
cover any over-allotments of common stock.

The underwriters propose to offer the shares of common stock initially at
the public offering price on the cover page of this prospectus and to selling
group members at that price less a concession of $.81 per share. The
underwriters and selling group members may allow a discount of $.10 per share of
common stock on sales to other broker/dealers. After the initial public
offering, the public offering price and concession and discount to broker/
dealers may be changed by the representatives.

We and our directors, officers, members of senior management and some of
our shareholders have agreed that we will not offer, sell, contract to sell,
pledge or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly, or file with the
Commission a registration statement under the Securities Act relating to, any
additional shares of our Class A common stock or securities convertible into or
exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of our capital stock or publicly
disclose the intention to make an offer, sale, pledge, disposition or filing
without the prior written consent of Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation for
a period of 90 days after the date of this prospectus, except (1) with respect
to us, pursuant to or in connection with employee stock option or employee stock
purchase plans or other employee or non-employee director or key advisor
compensation arrangements or agreements, in effect on the date of this
prospectus, (2) in connection with the conversion of shares of Class A common
stock, Class B common stock or Class C common stock solely into another class of
common stock or (3) shares sold in this offering pursuant to the over-allotment
option.

We and the selling shareholders have agreed to indemnify the underwriters
against liabilities under the Securities Act or contribute to payments which the
underwriters may be required to make in that respect.

The representatives may engage in over-allotment, stabilizing transactions,
syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids in accordance with Regulation M
under the Exchange Act.

- Over-allotment involves syndicate sales in excess of the offering size,
which creates a syndicate short position.

- Stabilizing transactions permit bids to purchase the underlying security
so long as the stabilizing bids do not exceed a specified maximum.

- Syndicate covering transactions involve purchases of the Class A common
stock in the open market after the distribution has been completed in
order to cover syndicate short positions.

- Penalty bids permit the representatives to reclaim a selling concession
from a syndicate member when the shares of Class A common stock
originally sold by such syndicate member are purchased in a syndicate
covering transaction to cover syndicate short positions.

These stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions and penalty bids
may cause the price of the Class A common stock to be higher than it would
otherwise be in the absence of such transactions. These transactions may be
effected on The New York Stock Exchange or otherwise and, if commenced, may be
discontinued at any time.

The underwriters and their affiliates have provided financial services to
us in the past for which they received customary compensation. In addition,
Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, Banc of America Securities LLC and
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. are acting as underwriters in our concurrent
offering of TIDES and an affiliate of Banc of America Securities LLC is a lender
under our current credit facility. A portion of the proceeds from this offering
will be used to repay debt under our current credit facility. However, Banc of
America Securities LLC will not receive any benefit from this offering or the
TIDES offering other than its portion of the underwriting fees as paid by us.
The decision of Banc of America Securities LLC to distribute the common stock
and the TIDES was made independent of its affiliated lender under our current
credit facility. The affiliated lender has no involvement in determining whether
or when to distribute the common stock under this offering or the TIDES under
the TIDES offering or the terms of this offering or the TIDES offering.

RESALE RESTRICTIONS

The distribution of the Class A common stock in Canada is being made only

authorities in each province where trades of shares of Class A common stock are
effected. Accordingly, any resale of the Class A common stock in Canada must be

dealer from whom such purchase confirmation is received that (1) the purchaser
is entitled under applicable provincial securities laws to purchase such shares

principal and not as agent and (3) the purchaser has reviewed the text above
under "Resale Restrictions."

RIGHTS OF ACTION (ONTARIO PURCHASERS)

The securities being offered are those of a foreign issuer and Ontario

of the U.S. federal securities laws.

result, it may not be possible for Canadian purchasers to effect service of
process within Canada upon the issuer or these persons. All or a substantial
portion of the assets of the issuer and these persons may be located outside of
Canada and, as a result, it may not be possible to satisfy a judgment against

Canadian courts against the issuer or these persons outside of Canada.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

To the Board of Directors of
Entercom Communications Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Entercom
Communications Corp. (formerly Entertainment Communications, Inc.) and
subsidiaries (the "Company") as of September 30, 1997 and 1998, and the related
consolidated statements of income, shareholders' equity, and cash flows for each
of the three years in the period ended September 30, 1998. These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Entercom Communications Corp.
and subsidiaries at September 30, 1997 and 1998, and the results of their
operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended
September 30, 1998 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

As discussed in Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements, the
accompanying consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30,
1997 and 1998 have been restated.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996, 1997 AND 1998

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION AND ORGANIZATION

OPERATIONS -- Entercom Communications Corp. (formerly Entertainment
Communications, Inc.) (the "Company") is principally engaged in the management
and operation of radio broadcast stations throughout the United States. The
Company owns or operates three or more radio stations in the following markets:
Boston, Seattle, Portland, Sacramento, Kansas City and Rochester.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS -- The Company intends to offer shares of
its Class A Common Stock to the public during 1999 (the "Offering"). Just prior
to the effective date of the Offering, the Company will terminate its status as
an S Corporation. At that time, the Company will be required to provide deferred
income taxes for cumulative temporary differences between financial statement
and income tax bases of the Company's assets and liabilities. At September 30,
1998, a deferred tax liability of $82.1 million has been reflected in the pro
forma balance sheet presented. In addition, a deferred tax asset of $3.2 million
would have been established.

In addition, the S Corporation shareholders will receive distributions of
approximately $1.0 million prior to, and approximately $88.1 million subsequent
to the effective date of the Offering. Of these amounts, $1.0 million relates to
income tax liabilities attributable to the S Corporation shareholders' share of
the Company's taxable income for the year ended September 30, 1998, $16.1
million relates to taxed but undistributed income as of September 30, 1998,
$70.2 million relates to taxable gains from transactions occurring subsequent to
September 30, 1998 and $1.6 million relates to the estimated taxable income from
operations for the period from October 1, 1998 to January 31, 1999. Only those
distributions (totaling approximately $17.1 million) related to transactions
occurring prior to October 1, 1998 have been reflected for purposes of the
unaudited pro forma balance sheet presented with the accompanying consolidated
financial statements. Of the $88.1 million to be distributed subsequent to the
effective date of the Offering, $0.2 million will be paid to the S Corporation
shareholders for their estimated income taxes on the income of the Company for
its 1999 fiscal year; payment of the balance is conditional on the successful
completion of the Offering.

The unaudited pro forma net income data reflect adjustments for income
taxes as if the Company had been subject to federal and state income taxes based
upon a pro forma effective tax rate of 38% applied to income before income taxes
excluding the effect of adjustment to reflect indexing of convertible
subordinated note (as such adjustment is not tax deductible) of $29.1 million
and $8.8 million for the years ending September 30, 1997 and 1998, respectively.
(See Note 6(D)).

PRO FORMA EARNINGS PER SHARE -- Pro forma earnings per share is calculated
in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 128 and, as
such, is based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding and dilutive common equivalent shares from convertible debt (using
the if-converted method). For the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998,
the effect of the conversion of the convertible subordinated note was
antidilutive.

2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

INCOME TAX STATUS -- The shareholders of the Company elected to change the
tax status of the Company from a C Corporation to an S Corporation beginning
October 1, 1987 for federal and certain state income tax purposes. For certain
other states for which an S Corporation election has not been made, the Company
incurs state income taxes.

The shareholders' election to be taxed as an S Corporation relieves the
Company of the obligation to pay federal and certain state corporate income
taxes but results in shareholders being directly liable for payment of such
income taxes on their pro rata share of the Company's taxable income, including
taxable income which has been deferred as a result of the Company's use of
different accounting methods for financial reporting and income tax reporting.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION -- The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts of the Company, its limited partnership interest
and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly-owned. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

MANAGEMENT'S USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of consolidated financial
statements, in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles,
requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities, as of the date of the consolidated financial statements, and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.

DEPRECIATION -- Depreciation is determined on a straight-line basis. The
estimated useful lives for depreciation are as follows:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Land improvements........................................... 10 years
Building.................................................... 20 years
Equipment................................................... 5-20 years
Furniture and fixtures...................................... 5-10 years
Leasehold improvements...................................... Various
</TABLE>

REVENUE RECOGNITION -- Revenue from the sale of commercial broadcast time
to advertisers is recognized when the commercials are broadcast. Promotional
fees are recognized as services are rendered.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK -- The Company's revenues and accounts
receivable relate primarily to the sale of advertising within the radio
stations' broadcast areas. Credit is extended based on an evaluation of the
customers' financial condition, and generally, collateral is not required.
Credit losses are provided for in the financial statements and consistently have
been within management's expectations. The Company also maintains deposit
accounts with financial institutions. At times, such deposits may exceed FDIC
insurance limits.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

ADVERTISING COSTS -- Advertising costs are expensed as incurred and
approximated $4.3 million, $6.0 million and $6.6 million for the fiscal years
ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively.

RADIO BROADCASTING LICENSES AND OTHER INTANGIBLES -- Broadcasting licenses
and other intangibles are being amortized on a straight-line basis over 40
years.

LONG-LIVED ASSETS -- In accordance with SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of",
the Company evaluates the recoverability of its long-lived assets which include
broadcasting licenses, other intangibles, deferred charges, and other assets
whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount
may not be recoverable. If indications are that the carrying amount of the asset
is not recoverable, the Company will estimate the future cash flows expected to
result from use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the
expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less
than the carrying amount of the asset, the Company recognizes an impairment
loss. The impairment loss recognized is measured as the amount by which the
carrying amount of the asset exceeds its fair value.

DEFERRED CHARGES -- The Company defers and amortizes debt issuance costs
and leasehold premiums over the term of the debt and life of the lease,
respectively.

NET EXPENSE (INCOME) FROM TIME BROKERAGE AGREEMENT ("TBA") FEES -- Net
expense (income) from TBA fees consist of fees paid by or earned by the Company
under agreements which permit an acquirer to program and market stations prior
to acquisition. The Company sometimes enters into such agreements prior to the
consummation of station acquisitions or dispositions. Under the TBAs relating to
the Company's acquisitions, the expense from TBA fees was approximately $0.4
million, $2.2 million and $2.5 million for the years ended September 30, 1996,
1997 and 1998, respectively. Under the TBAs relating to the Company's
dispositions, the income from TBA fees was approximately $1.2 million, $2.7
million and $0.1 million for the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. Amounts reflected in net revenues and station operating expenses
from operations under TBAs, excluding expense (income) from TBA fees, were
approximately $2.4 million and $1.3 million, $12.3 million and $9.0 million, and
$7.8 million and $5.0 million for the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and
1998, respectively.

BARTER TRANSACTIONS -- The Company provides advertising broadcast time in
exchange for certain products, supplies and services. The terms of the exchanges
generally permit the Company to preempt such broadcast time in favor of
advertisers who purchase time on regular terms. The Company includes the value
of such exchanges in both broadcasting revenues and operating costs and
expenses. Barter valuation is based upon management's estimate of the fair value
of the products, supplies and services received. For the years ended September
30, 1996, 1997 and 1998, barter transactions amounted to approximately $632,000,
$822,000 and $1,043,000, respectively. The Company accrues as a liability the
amount by which the value of broadcasting time to be provided exceeds the value
of products, supplies and services to be received. At September 30, 1996, 1997
and 1998, such amounts were approximately $120,000, $5,000 and $19,000,
respectively.

ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS -- Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of
amounts held on deposit with financial institutions in immediately available
money market accounts.

DERIVATIVE FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS -- The Company uses derivative financial
instruments, including interest rate exchange agreements ("Swaps") and interest
rate cap agreements ("Caps"), to manage its exposure to fluctuations in interest
rates. Swaps and Caps are matched with debt and periodic cash payments and are
accrued on a net basis as an adjustment to interest expense. Any fees associated
with these instruments are amortized over their term.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -- In February 1997, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standard ("SFAS") No. 128, "Earnings per Share", which was effective for the
Company beginning October 1, 1997. SFAS No. 128 establishes standards for
computing and presenting earnings per share ("EPS") and applies to entities with
publicly held common stock or potential common stock. It replaces the
presentation of primary EPS with a presentation of basic EPS and requires the
dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS on the face of the income statement.
This statement requires restatement of all prior period EPS data presented. For
the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998 the effect of the conversion
of convertible debt was antidilutive. The Board of Directors has declared,
contingent upon the successful completion of the Company's initial public
offering of its common stock, certain dividends to be payable to the S
Corporation shareholders. Of these dividends, approximately $17.1 million is
attributable to the undistributed taxable income of the Company prior to October
1, 1998. This amount exceeds the Company's earnings for the year ended September
30, 1998 by approximately $15.9 million. The weighted average outstanding shares
have been increased by 705,000 shares, which represent the number of shares
which, when multiplied by an offering price of $22.50 per share, would be
sufficient to replace the capital in excess of the current years earnings which
is proposed to be distributed to the S Corporation shareholders.

In June 1998, the FASB issued SFAS No. 133 entitled "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," which establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts, (collectively referred to as
"derivatives") and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. This statement is
effective for all fiscal quarters of fiscal years beginning after June 15, 1999.
Management has not yet determined what effect, if any, this statement will have
on the Company.

RECLASSIFICATIONS -- Certain reclassifications have been made to the
consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 1996 and
1997 in order to conform to the current year presentation.

3. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT TRANSACTIONS

During each of the periods presented the Company consummated acquisitions
of radio stations. All of these acquisitions were accounted for under the
purchase method of accounting (unless otherwise noted below), and the purchase
prices, including transaction

costs, were allocated to the assets based upon their respective fair values as
determined by independent appraisal as of the purchase dates. Gains on exchange

sale of advertising time broadcast on KING-FM, but will be required to pay a
monthly fee to Classic based upon calculations as defined in the agreement.
Under the terms of the JSA, the Company will be responsible for all costs
incurred in selling the advertising time. Classic will be responsible for all
costs incurred in operating the station. Gross revenues and expenses incurred by
the Company under this contract during the years ended September 30, 1997 and

related assets of WHB-AM, Kansas City, Missouri. The Company incurred
transaction costs of $233,000. The transaction was accounted for as a
nonmonetary exchange of similar productive assets and no gain or loss was
recognized. The assets received were recorded at the historical cost of the
assets surrendered.

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results
of operations as if the transactions which occurred within either the 1997 or
1998 fiscal years had all occurred at the beginning of the 1997 fiscal year,
after giving effect to certain adjustments, including depreciation and
amortization of assets and interest expense on any debt incurred to fund the
acquisitions which would have been incurred had such acquisitions and other
transactions occurred at the beginning of the 1997 fiscal year. These unaudited
pro forma results have been prepared for comparative purposes only and do not
purport to be indicative of what would have occurred had the acquisitions and
other transactions been made as of that date or results which may occur in the
future.

- -------------------------

(1) On March 25, 1997, the Company expanded its existing credit facility with a
group of banks to $165.0 million. The credit facility consisted of a $140.0
million reducing revolving credit and a $25.0 million amortizing term loan.
At September 30, 1997, outstanding balances against these credit facilities
were $92.0 million and $25.0 million, respectively. Under the loan
agreement, the Company provided the banks with a pledge of its 99% interest
in ECI License Company LP, a pledge of all of the outstanding stock of the
Company, and a pledge of all the Company's other assets. The agreement
included certain restrictive covenants, including a limitation on dividends.
These debt facilities were replaced with the debt facility described in
paragraph (A)(2) below.

(a) The availability under the reducing revolving credit agreement, which
was to mature on June 30, 2003, reduced on a quarterly basis beginning
September 30, 1997 in amounts which vary from $3.5 million to $12.4
million. The Company had the option under this agreement to elect to
pay interest at a rate equal to LIBOR (in increments with durations of
1, 2, 3 or 6 months) plus 1.25% or the prime rate. Under certain
events, the Company's borrowing costs could have increased to a maximum
of LIBOR plus 3.25% or prime plus 2%. The interest payable on LIBOR
rates was payable at the end of the selected duration but not less
frequently than every three months and on prime rates was payable at
the end of each calendar quarter. The weighted average interest rate
under this agreement at September 30, 1997 was 7.46%. The Company was
required to maintain a minimum of $1.0 million in cash, cash
equivalents, or cash available under this facility.

(b) The $25.0 million amortizing term loan, which was to mature on June 30,
2003, reduced in ten equal quarterly payments of $625,000, beginning
December 31, 2000 with a final payment of $18.75 million due June 30,
2003. The Company had the option to pay interest at a rate of LIBOR
plus 3.25% or prime plus 2%.

F-20
<PAGE> 122
ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

The interest payment was due in the same manner as described in
(A)(1)(a) above. The interest rate under this agreement at September
30, 1997 was 8.91%.

(2) The Company's term and revolving credit facilities were refinanced on
February 13, 1998, under a new bank credit agreement (the "New Credit
Agreement") with Key Corporate Capital Inc., as administrative agent. The
New Credit Agreement provides for a $300.0 million Senior Secured Revolving
Credit Facility (the "New Bank Facility"). See Note 12, Subsequent Events,
for further discussion.

The New Bank Facility is secured by (i) a pledge of the Company's 99%
interest in ECI License Company, LP ("ECI"), (ii) a security interest in
substantially all of the assets of ECI, (iii) a pledge of 100% of the
outstanding stock of the Company; provided, however, that this pledge will
be released if the Company restructures by forming subsidiaries to hold the
station assets and licenses (in such a restructuring, the Company will
pledge the stock of all such subsidiaries which will become Guarantors, and
ECI will be dissolved, further, upon such restructuring and pledge of
stock, the pledges under (i) and (ii) above will be terminated and
released), (iv) a security interest in all major tangible and intangible
personal property assets of the Company and any future subsidiaries as well
as a negative pledge on all real property, and (v) an assignment of all
major leases, rights, etc. as appropriate.

The availability under the reducing revolving credit agreement, which
matures on February 13, 2006, reduces on a quarterly basis beginning June
30, 2000 in amounts which vary from $3.75 million to $15.0 million. The
Company has the option under this agreement to elect to pay interest at a
rate equal to LIBOR (in increments with durations of 1, 2, 3 or 6 months)
plus .50% or the prime rate. Under certain events, the Company's borrowing
costs can increase to a maximum of LIBOR plus 2.125% or prime plus .875%.
The interest payable on LIBOR rates is payable at the end of the selected
duration but not less frequently than every three months and on prime rates
is payable at the end of each calendar quarter. The weighted average
interest rates under this agreement at September 30, 1998 was 7.53%. The
Company also pays a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum on the average
unused balance of the New Bank Facility.

(B) The Company has entered into several interest rate transactions as
hedges against the variable rate debt discussed in 6(A) above:

(1) In June 1987, the Company entered into an interest rate agreement or
"swap" for a notional amount of $6.0 million which concluded in June
1996. The Company paid a fixed rate of 9.55% on the notional amount to
a bank and the bank paid to the Company a variable rate equal to
three-month LIBOR as determined from time to time on a quarterly basis
through June 30, 1996. The net amount the Company paid under this
agreement was $175,000 for the year ended September 30, 1996 and has
been accounted for as interest expense.

(2) In May 1995, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement
for a notional amount of $20.0 million through May 16, 2000. Under this
agreement, the Company pays a fixed rate of 6.77% on the notional
amount to a bank and the bank pays to the Company a variable rate equal
to three-month LIBOR as

F-21
<PAGE> 123
ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

determined from time to time on a quarterly basis through May 16, 2000.
The variable rate was 5.5%, 5.7% and 5.7% at September 30, 1996, 1997
and 1998, respectively. The net amount the Company paid under this
agreement was $240,000, $235,000 and $211,000 for the years ended
September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. These amounts have
been accounted for as interest expense.

(3) In July 1996, the Company entered into a convertible rate cap
transaction in the amount of $25.0 million to hedge a portion of its
variable rate debt. Pursuant to this transaction, the bank elected,
effective October 29, 1998, to convert the transaction to a swap for a
notional amount of $25.0 million in which the Company pays a fixed rate
of 5.89% on the notional amount to the bank and the bank pays to the
Company a variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR through July 29,
2003. No amounts were paid relating to this transaction during the
years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998.

(4) In August 1996, the Company simultaneously entered into a rate cap
transaction and a swap option transaction in the amount of $25.0
million to hedge a portion of its variable rate debt. Under the rate
cap transaction, which expires August 8, 2000, the Company's base LIBOR
rate cannot exceed 7.5% at the time of any quarterly reset date. Under
the swap option transaction, the bank may make an election prior to
August 8, 2000 to enter into a swap in which the Company pays a fixed
rate of 6.05% on the notional amount to a bank and the bank pays to the
Company a variable rate equal to three-month LIBOR. If the bank
exercises its election, then the swap will terminate on August 8, 2002.
Any election by the bank will not terminate the rate cap transaction
described above. No amounts were paid related to these transactions
during the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998.

(5) On January 6, 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate swap
agreement with a bank in the amount of $15.0 million to hedge a portion
of its variable rate debt. Under the swap transaction, which expires
January 10, 2005, unless terminated by the bank by January 6, 2003, the
Company pays a fixed rate of 5.61% on the notional amount to the bank
and the bank pays to the Company a variable rate equal to three month
LIBOR as determined from time to time on a quarterly basis through the
end of the transaction period. The variable rate was 5.7% as of
September 30, 1998. The net amount paid to the Company under this
agreement was $9,000 for the year ended September 30, 1998.

(6) On January 6, 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate swap
agreement with a bank in the amount of $14.0 million to hedge a portion
of its variable rate debt. Under the swap transaction, which expires
January 10, 2005, the Company pays a fixed rate of 5.86% on the
notional amount to the bank and the bank pays to the Company a variable
rate equal to three months LIBOR as determined from time to time on a
quarterly basis through the end of the transaction period. The variable
rate was 5.7% as of September 30, 1998. The net amount paid by the
Company under this agreement was $17,000 for the year ended September
30, 1998.

(7) On February 26, 1998, the Company entered into an interest rate swap
agreement with a bank in the amount of $30.0 million to hedge a portion
of its variable rate debt. Under the swap transaction, which expires
February 27, 2008, unless terminated by the bank on February 28, 2005,
the Company pays a fixed rate of 5.77% on the notional amount to the
bank and the bank pays to the Company a variable rate equal to three
month LIBOR as determined from time to time on a quarterly basis
through the end of the transaction period. The variable rate was 5.7%
as of September 30, 1998. The net amount paid by the Company under this
agreement was $16,000 for the year ended September 30, 1998.

The extraordinary charges for 1996 and 1998 are the result of the
write-offs ($539,000 and $2,376,000 respectively, net of tax benefits) of
unamortized finance charges resulting from the early extinguishment of long-term
debt.

(D) On May 21, 1996, the Company entered into a convertible subordinated
note purchase agreement with an investment partnership in the principal amount
of $25.0 million. Interest on the note accrues at the rate of 7% per annum. Such
interest compounds annually and is deferred and payable with principal in one
installment on May 21, 2003. The payment due date can be deferred by one year
under certain circumstances. The obligations of the Company under the note are
subordinate to the obligations of the notes payable to the banks as noted in
(A)(2) above.

The convertible subordinated note is convertible by the holder under
certain events and circumstances such as a public offering of the Company's
capital stock, a change of control of the Company, a sale of substantially all
of the Company's assets, a merger or consolidation into a publicly traded
company or the Company's ceasing to be an S Corporation. In the event of
conversion, the holders would receive shares of the common stock of the Company
representing an ownership interest of approximately 15% of the Company prior to
such event in lieu of all outstanding principal and interest. Under certain
events and circumstances, the holder of the note has the option to put ("Put
Option") the convertible subordinated note to the Company and receive, at the
option of the Company, either cash or a new note ("Put Note"). The Put Option is
exercisable on or after May 21, 2001. The amount of cash or principal of the Put
Note will equal the fair market

F-23
<PAGE> 125
ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

value of the shares of common stock into which the convertible subordinated note
is convertible. The Put Note would accrue interest at prime plus 2% and would be
due May 21, 2004.

In the event that the note is not converted or put to the Company by May
21, 2003, then the Company can redeem the convertible subordinated note by
either paying cash or issuing a new note (Redemption Note). The amount of cash
or principal of the Redemption Note will equal the original principal amount of
the convertible subordinated note ($25.0 million) plus interest accrued through
the Date of Redemption at an interest rate of 7% per annum. The Redemption Note
would also accrue interest at 7% per annum and would be due on May 21, 2004.

Due to the existence of the Put Option described above, the Company
accounts for this instrument as indexed debt. Accordingly, the Company's balance
sheets as of September 30, 1997 and 1998 and statements of income for the years
then ended reflect an "adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible
subordinated note." No adjustment was required for fiscal 1996.

The adjustment to reflect indexing of the convertible subordinated note has
been determined by reference to the difference between the estimated market
value of the shares of Common Stock into which the note is convertible pursuant
to the terms of the Put Option and the sum of the principal outstanding of $25.0
million plus interest accrued at 7% per annum. Such estimated market value is
calculated using comparable publicly held radio broadcast companies' multiples
of broadcast cash flow.

The holder of the convertible subordinated note has stated that in
connection with the initial public offering of the Company's Common Stock, it
will exercise its conversion option. Up to the date of the conversion, the
Company may recognize further adjustments to the indexing of the convertible
subordinated note. Upon conversion, the amount of the liability recorded will
convert to equity and there will be no further obligation by the Company.

7. FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair value of the Company's financial instruments, which
consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, station acquisition
deposits, income tax deposit, accounts payable, accrued liabilities, debt and
interest rate instruments, have been determined by the Company using available
market information and appropriate valuation methodologies. At September 30,
1997 and 1998, the fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
station acquisition deposits, income tax deposit, accounts payable, accrued
liabilities and debt approximate their carrying value. At September 30, 1997 and
1998, respectively, unrealized losses on interest rate hedges described under
Note 6(B) (2), (3), (4), (5), (6) and (7) are as follows (amounts in thousands):

8. MINORITY INTEREST

On December 2, 1992, in connection with a financing transaction, the
Company created a wholly owned subsidiary, ECI Investors Corporation
("Investors"), with a capital of $50,000. Upon creation, the Company immediately
distributed the stock of Investors to the Company's shareholders. On December
23, 1992, the Company formed a limited partnership, ECI License Company, LP
("Partnership") with Investors. The Company is the sole general partner of the
Partnership. The Company contributed its FCC (FCC) licenses and authorizations
to the Partnership in exchange for a 99% interest in the Partnership, and
Investors acquired its 1% interest in the Partnership for cash.

On all subsequent occasions when the Company acquired FCC licenses and
authorizations it has contributed them to the Partnership for its 99% interest
and Investors has contributed its matching 1% interest. On each such occasion,
as well as on the dispositions of FCC licenses and authorizations, excluding
those FCC licenses and authorizations used to acquire new FCC licenses and
authorizations which qualify under IRC Section 1031, commonly known as "SWAPS,"
the book value of the Partnership has been adjusted to reflect such transaction.
The book value of the Partnership was approximately $114.2 million (net of
accumulated amortization of approximately $4.5 million) and $132.2 million (net
of accumulated amortization of approximately $7.3 million) at September 30, 1997
and 1998. The Company's 99% interest in the Partnership is pledged as collateral
for the debt described in Note 6A(2). The Company pays a licensing fee to the
Partnership in exchange for the right to utilize the Partnership's licenses and
authorizations in connection with the operation of the stations.

F-25
<PAGE> 127
ENTERCOM COMMUNICATIONS CORP.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

As discussed in Note 2, the financial impact of such transactions is
substantially eliminated in consolidation. The minority interest at September
30, 1997 and 1998 included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets
represents the 1% interest of Investors in the Partnership, net of two notes
receivable by the Partnership from Investors. These notes were in the amounts of
approximately $875,000 and $7,000 at September 30, 1997 and $839,000 plus
various other notes which total approximately $200,000 at September 30, 1998.
These notes bear interest at rates ranging from 6% to 8% per annum, and were
issued to the Partnership by Investors for Investors' share of the FCC licenses
and authorizations acquired by the Company during 1997 and 1998. These notes are
due in ten equal annual installments, plus accrued interest.

9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ACQUISITIONS

The Company entered into a preliminary agreement on February 6, 1996 for
the Company to acquire the assets of radio station KWOD-FM, Sacramento,
California, from Royce International Broadcasting Corporation subject to
approval by the FCC for a purchase price of $25.0 million. Notwithstanding
efforts by the Company to pursue this transaction, the seller has been
nonresponsive. Accordingly, the Company cannot determine if and when the
transaction might occur.

On August 13, 1998, the Company entered into three agreements with CBS
Radio, Inc. pursuant to which it will (i) purchase WRKO-AM and WEEI-AM in Boston
for $82.0 million in cash (the "First Boston Transaction"), (ii) sell WLLD-FM
and WYUU-FM in Tampa for $75.0 million in cash (the "Tampa Transaction") and
(iii) purchase WAAF-AM and WEGQ-FM in Boston and WWTM-AM in Worchester for $58.0
million (the "Second Boston Transaction"). The assets that will be sold in the
Tampa Transaction have been segregated on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as
assets held for sale. These assets consist of $2.8 million in property and
equipment, net of accumulated depreciation, and $2.5 million in radio
broadcasting licenses and other intangibles, net of accumulated amortization.
See Notes 12(D) and 12(G).

OTHER

The Company's employment agreement with its Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer renews automatically each calendar year unless terminated by either
party in accordance with the contract. Under the terms of the agreement,
compensation is calculated annually by utilizing the gross national product
implicit price deflator issued by the Bureau of Economic Analysis to determine
the equivalent of 1993 base compensation of $500,000. Total compensation for the
years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998 was approximately $540,000,
$554,000, and $567,000, respectively.

Rental expense is incurred principally for office and broadcasting
facilities. Rental expense during the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and
1998 was approximately $1.2 million, $2.2 million and $2.8 million,
respectively.

The Company also has various contracts for sports programming and on-air
personalities with terms ranging from one to five years.

The Company is subject to various outstanding claims which arose in the
ordinary course of business and to other legal proceedings. In the opinion of
management, any liability of the Company which may arise out of or with respect
to these matters will not materially affect the financial position, results of
operations or cash flows of the Company.

10. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

During 1997, the Company retired treasury stock consisting of 1,931,400
shares of Class A common stock.

For the fiscal years ended September 30, 1996, 1997 and 1998, the Company
paid total dividends of $2.0, $2.8, and $3.1 million, respectively. These
amounts include special dividends paid to the Company's shareholders to
compensate them for federal and state income tax obligations attributable to
pass-through taxable income generated by the Company.

On June 24, 1998, the Board of Directors and the shareholders of the
Company approved the Company's amended and restated Articles of Incorporation to
provide for, among other things, an increase in the aggregate number of shares
which the Company has authority to issue to 350,000,000 shares, par value $.01
per share, consisting of the following: (i) 200,000,000 shares of Class A Common
Stock; (ii) 75,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock; (iii) 50,000,000 shares
of Class C Common Stock; and (iv) 25,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock. Such

11. EMPLOYEE SAVINGS AND BENEFIT PLANS

The Company sponsors a 401(k) savings plan which includes a provision under
which the Company contributes 50% of the amount of any eligible employee's
contribution to the plan up to a maximum employer contribution of 3% of an

plan for the years ended September 30, 1996, 1997, and 1998, respectively.

On June 24, 1998, the Company adopted an Equity Compensation Plan (the

receive incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, restricted stock
and stock appreciation rights in the Common Stock of the Company. There are
5,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Compensation

restricted stock and 838,965 in options of which 563,403 options have an
exercise price equal to the initial public offering price per share and 275,562
have an exercise price of 80% of the initial public offering price. All of the

at prices below fair market value, the Company will recognize $1.2 million in
non-cash compensation expense ratably over the four year period. For restricted
stock, the Company will recognize $250,000 in non-cash compensation expense
ratably over the four year period.

(I) In December 1998, the Company invested $1.0 million by purchasing 200,000
shares at $5.00 per share in USA Digital Radio, Inc. The Company's
investment represents a minority share in a privately held company formed
to develop in-band on channel digital radio for AM and FM broadcast
stations.

13. CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

In connection with the adoption of the Company's amended and restated
Articles of Incorporation (See Note 10), the Company declared a 185 for 1 stock
split payable to shareholders at the time the Amended and Restated Articles of
Incorporation become effective. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements give effect to these transactions as if they had occurred on October
1, 1995.

14. RESTATEMENT

Subsequent to the issuance of the Company's fiscal 1998 consolidated
financial statements, the Company determined that its fiscal 1997 and 1998
consolidated financial statements should be restated to reflect the 7%
convertible subordinated note (see Note 6(D)) as an indexed debt instrument and
to record the change in the put option value as a charge to operations.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
THREE MONTHS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1998

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements for Entercom Communications
Corp. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (including normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

For the three months ended December 31, 1998, the weighted average
outstanding shares have been increased by 3,208,000 shares, which represent the
number of shares which, when multiplied by an offering price of $22.50 per
share, would be sufficient to replace the capital in excess of the current
period's earnings which was authorized for subsequent distribution to the
shareholders of the Company while the Company was an S Corporation (the "S
Corporation Shareholders"), prior to the initial public offering of 13,627,500
shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock at an offering price of $22.50 (the
"IPO").

2. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results
of operations as if the transactions which occurred during the period of October
1, 1997 through December 31, 1998 had all occurred as of October 1, 1997, after
giving effect to certain adjustments, including depreciation and amortization of
assets and interest expense on any debt incurred to find the acquisitions which
would have been incurred had such acquisitions and other transactions occurred
as of October 1, 1997. These unaudited pro forma results have been prepared for
comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what would have
occurred had the acquisitions and other transactions been made as of that date
or results which may occur in the future.

3. DEBT

The Company has a senior secured Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility")
with a syndicate of banks which allows the Company to borrow up to $350.0
million on a reducing, revolving basis. Availability under the Credit Facility
reduces quarterly beginning June 30, 2000, in amounts which vary from $4.4
million to $17.5 million. As of December 31, 1998, the Company had approximately
$330.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facility. The current
outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility was not reduced by the $75.0
million proceeds from the Tampa Transaction as these funds were being held in
escrow in a qualified intermediary account.

In connection with the Company's IPO which was completed on February 3,
1999, the Company received approximately $236.1 million in net proceeds which
was used to repay revolving indebtedness outstanding under the Credit Facility.
As of March 5, 1999, the Company had revolving indebtedness outstanding under
the Credit Facility of approximately $147.5 million, which included $58.0
million in connection with the consummation of the acquisition of WAAF-FM and
WEGQ-FM in Boston and WWTM-AM in Worchester. See Note 5, Subsequent Events.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

ACQUISITIONS

The Company entered into a preliminary agreement on February 6, 1996, to
acquire the assets of radio station KWOD-FM, Sacramento, California, from Royce
International Broadcasting Corporation, subject to approval by the FCC, for a
purchase price of $25.0 million. Notwithstanding efforts by the Company to
pursue this Transaction, the seller has been nonresponsive. Accordingly, the
Company cannot determine if and when the transaction might occur.

CONTINGENCIES

5. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On February 3, 1999, the Company completed the IPO, pursuant to which
13,627,500 shares of Class A Common Stock were sold to the public at a price of
$22.50 per share. Of the 13,627,500 shares sold, the Company sold 11,300,000 and
Chase Capital Partners ("Chase Capital"), the sole selling shareholder, sold
2,327,500 shares. The net proceeds to the Company, after deducting underwriting
discounts and other offering expenses was approximately $236.1 million. In
connection with the IPO, the following events occurred:

Effective January 28, 1999 (the "Revocation Date"), the Company revoked its
S Corporation status with the Internal Revenue Service and therefore the last
day the Company was taxed as an S Corporation was January 27, 1999. As a result,
all of the Company's net income after January 27, 1999 will be taxed to the
Company rather than taxed to the Company's shareholders.

Prior to the revocation of its S Corporation status, the Company declared a
dividend (the "S Distribution"), conditioned upon consummation of the IPO,
payable to its former S Corporation Shareholders in the amount of $88.1 million,
which the Company estimated would be the undistributed balance of the income of
the Company which has been taxed, or is taxable to its S Corporation
Shareholders as of the revocation date. On March 2, 1999 the company distributed
$75 million to its S Corporation shareholders as partial payment of the S
Distribution. The Company anticipates paying the remaining $13.1 million in
April, 1999.

As a result of the revocation of its S Corporation status and its resulting
treatment as a C Corporation, the Company will record a non-cash deferred tax
expense of approximately $81.7 million in the quarter ending March 31, 1999,
resulting from the recording of a deferred income tax asset of $4.3 million and
a deferred income tax liability of $86.0 million.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Prior to the IPO, Chase Capital, which held a Convertible Subordinated
Promissory Note of the Company (the "Convertible Subordinated Note") with
principal in the amount of $25.0 million, converted the Convertible Subordinated
Note into 2,327,500 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,995,669 shares of Class
C Common Stock (the "Chase Conversion"). At the time of the Chase Conversion,
the market value of the shares into which the Convertible Subordinated Note was
convertible, was approximately $97.3 million (the principal amount of the
Convertible Subordinated Note plus accrued interest amounted to approximately
$29.9 million, and the cumulative adjustment to reflect indexing of the
Convertible Subordinated Note was approximately $67.4 million). The Convertible
Subordinated Note has been retired and there is no further obligation due.

On January 22, 1999, in a related party transaction, the Company purchased
a 1% minority interest in ECI License Company, L.P. for an amount of $3.4
million. ECI License Company, L.P. is a limited partnership in which the Company
is the general partner and owns a 99% interest. ECI License Company, L.P. owns
certain of the Company's FCC licenses.

In August 1998, the Company entered into an agreement with CBS pursuant to
which it agreed to purchase WAAF-FM and WEGQ-FM in Boston and WWTM-AM in
Worchester for $58.0 million in cash (the "Second Boston Transaction"). In
September, 1998, the Company began operating these stations under a TBA. On
February 22, 1999, the Company consummated the Transaction.

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1998 AND 1999

1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The accompanying unaudited financial statements for Entercom Communications
Corp. (the "Company") have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principals for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted
accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals, considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.

Effective January 28, 1999 (the "Revocation Date"), in connection with the
initial public offering (the "IPO") of 13,627,500 shares of Class A Common Stock
of the Company at a price of $22.50 per share, the Company revoked its S
Corporation status with the Internal Revenue Service and therefore the last day
the Company was taxed as an S Corporation was January 27, 1999. As a result, all
of the Company's effective tax rate for state and federal income taxes for the
period subsequent to January 27, 1999 is at a combined rate of 38%, applied to
taxable income before income taxes, which is adjusted for permanent differences
between tax and book income.

On January 29, 1999, the Company's Class A Common Stock began trading on
the New York Stock Exchange. On February 3, 1999, the Company completed the IPO
pursuant to which 13,627,500 shares of Class A Common Stock were sold to the
public at a price of $22.50 per share. Of the 13,627,500 shares sold, the
Company sold 11,300,000 and Chase Capital Partners ("Chase Capital"), the sole
selling shareholder, sold 2,327,500 shares. The net proceeds to the Company,
after deducting underwriting discounts and other offering expenses was
approximately $236.2 million.

As a result of the revocation of its S Corporation status and its
conversion to a C Corporation, the Company recorded a non-cash deferred income
tax expense of approximately $79.8 million to reflect the cumulative effect of
temporary differences between the tax and financial reporting bases of the
Company's assets and liabilities attributable to the period prior to its
conversion to a C Corporation.

The unaudited pro forma net income data reflect adjustments for income
taxes as if the Company had been subject to federal and state income taxes based
upon a pro forma effective tax rate of 38% applied to income before income taxes
and extraordinary item, excluding the effect of an expense adjustment to reflect
indexing of the Convertible Subordinated Note (as such adjustment is not tax
deductible) of $5.7 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 1998.

The net income (loss) per share and pro forma earnings per share are
calculated in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
128 and, are based on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock
outstanding and dilutive common equivalent shares which include stock options
and restricted stock (using the treasury stock method). For the six-month period
ended June 30, 1998, the effect of the conversion of the Convertible
Subordinated Note for the calculation of the pro forma income per share was
antidilutive.

2. ACQUISITIONS AND OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

COMPLETED ACQUISITIONS AND DIVESTITURES FOR THE SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 1999

On January 22, 1999, in a related party transaction, a wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company purchased a 1% limited partnership interest in ECI
License Company, L.P. for $3.4 million. ECI License Company, L.P. is a limited
partnership in which the Company is the general partner, owning a 99% general
partnership interest. ECI License Company, L.P. owns certain of the Company's
FCC licenses. The acquisition effectively gives the Company 100% interest in its
FCC licenses.

On February 22, 1999, the Company purchased the assets of radio stations
WAAF-FM and WEGQ-FM in Boston and WWTM-AM in Worchester from CBS for $58.0
million in cash. The Company incurred transaction costs of approximately $0.2
million related to this transaction. Broadcasting licenses and other intangibles
in the amount of $55.7 million were recorded in connection with this
transaction. The Company had operated these stations under a TBA since September
1998 and for the three months ended March 31, 1999, the Company incurred TBA
fees in the amount of $0.7 million.

On April 22, 1999, the Company sold a building located in Seattle,
Washington for a cash purchase price of $1.3 million, resulting in a gain of
approximately $0.5 million.

On June 11, 1999, the Company acquired the assets of radio station WREN-AM,
serving the Kansas City, Kansas/Missouri radio market, from Mortenson
Broadcasting Company of Canton, LLC and Mortenson Broadcasting Company for the
sum of $2.8 million in cash. Broadcasting licenses in the amount of $2.5 million
were recorded in connection with this transaction.

OTHER SIGNIFICANT EVENTS

Prior to the revocation of its S Corporation status, the Company declared a
dividend (the "S Distribution"), conditioned upon consummation of the IPO,
payable to its former S Corporation shareholders in the amount of $88.1 million,
which the Company estimated would be the undistributed balance of the income of
the Company which has been taxed or is taxable to its S Corporation shareholders
as of the Revocation Date. The S Distribution of $88.1 million has been paid as
of June 30, 1999.

Prior to the IPO, Chase Capital, which held a Convertible Subordinated
Promissory Note of the Company (the "Convertible Subordinated Note") in the
principal amount of $25.0 million, converted the Convertible Subordinated Note
into 2,327,500 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,995,669 shares of Class C
Common Stock (the "Chase Conversion"). At the time of the Chase Conversion, the
market value of the shares into which the Convertible Subordinated Note was
convertible, was approximately $97.3 million (the principal amount of the
Convertible Subordinated Note plus accrued interest amounted to approximately
$29.9 million, and the cumulative adjustment to reflect indexing of the
Convertible Subordinated Note was approximately $67.4 million). The Convertible
Subordinated Note has been retired and there is no further obligation due.

liability of the Company which may arise out of or with respect to these matters
will not materially affect the financial position, results of operations or cash
flows of the Company.

5. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

During the six months ended June 30, 1999, the Company issued options to
purchase 823,609 shares of its Class A Common Stock at prices ranging from
$18.00 to $34.00 per share. All of the options become exercisable over a
four-year period. In connection with the grant of options with exercise prices
below fair market value at the time of grant, the Company recognized
compensation expense in the amount of approximately $170,000 for the six-months
ended June 30, 1999.

On January 28, 1999, the Company issued certain Restricted Stock awards,
consisting of rights to 11,112 shares of Class A Common Stock, to two directors.
Such shares vest ratably on each of the next four anniversary dates of the
grant. In connection with three awards, the Company recognized compensation
expense in the amount of approximately $26,000 for the six-months ended June 30,
1999.

On May 1, 1999, Chase Capital converted 300,000 shares of Class C Common
Stock to 300,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.

6. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

On July 28, 1999, the Company entered into agreements to purchase from
Sinclair Broadcast Group ("Sinclair") all of Sinclair's radio properties (with
the exception of its St. Louis cluster) and to purchase 300,000 shares of USA
Digital Radio Inc. for a purchase price of $824.5 million in cash (the "Sinclair
Transaction"). As part of the Sinclair Transaction, the Company will agree to
spend $5.0 million in television advertising time for the promotion of the
Company's radio stations, on Sinclair's TV stations over a five year period, and
will be responsible for certain capital expenditures not to exceed $2.0 million.
The Sinclair Transaction covers 46 stations (15 AM and 31 FM) in nine markets
including Kansas City, Milwaukee, New Orleans, Memphis, Buffalo, Norfolk,
Greensboro/ Winston-Salem/High Point, Greenville/Spartanburg and
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. The Company will be required to sell or exchange certain
radio stations in the Kansas City market in order to meet regulatory
requirements limiting the number of stations the Company may own in this market
to eight (the Company currently owns seven). Completion of the Sinclair
Transaction is subject to several factors including approval by the Boards of
Directors of both companies, FCC approval, Department of Justice approval, the
Company's due diligence and completion of definitive documentation. The Company
expects to close on this transaction in the last quarter of 1999.

DECEMBER 31, 1997

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Heritage Media Services, Inc. ("HMSI") operates in two
segments -- Marketing Services and Broadcasting. Heritage Media Corporation is
the parent company of HMSI, (collectively referred to hereafter as either "HMC"
or the "Parent"). The Broadcasting Segment was wholly-owned and operated by
HMSI, which was owned by HMC through August 31, 1997 (the "Predecessor"). In
July 1997, HMC entered into an asset sale agreement with Sinclair Broadcast
Group, Inc. ("SBG") whereby SBG would acquire 100% of the Broadcasting Segment
(which consisted of six television stations in three markets and 24 radio
stations in seven markets) for $630 million in cash. Effective September 1,
1997, The News Corporation Limited ("News Corporation") acquired all of the
license and nonlicense assets of HMC. Due to certain regulatory requirements,
News Corporation has established a trust to hold all of the license and
nonlicense assets of the Broadcasting Segment until the sale to SBG has closed.
The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
whereby the purchase price was allocated to property and programming assets and
acquired intangible broadcasting assets of $51.4 million and $578.6 million,
respectively.

During January 1998, Entertainment Communications, Inc. ("Entercom")
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Tuscaloosa Broadcasting Inc.,
Sinclair Radio of Portland Licensee, Inc. and Sinclair Radio of Rochester
Licensee, Inc. (collectively referred to hereafter as "Sinclair") to acquire
KKSN-AM, KKSN-FM and KKRH-FM, all serving the Portland, Oregon radio market and
WBBF-AM, WBBF-FM, WKLX-FM and WQRV-FM, all serving the Rochester, New York radio
market for a purchase price of $126.5 million. Simultaneously with the above
agreement, Entercom entered into a Time Brokerage Agreement ("TBA") with
Sinclair whereby, effective March 1, 1998, Entercom programs these stations for
the period prior to consummation of the purchase agreement and Sinclair receives
a monthly TBA fee of $631,500. Closing on this transaction is expected in June
1998. The accompanying combined financial statements include the accounts of the
Portland, Oregon and Rochester, New York Radio Group, which are collectively
referred to hereafter as "the Company."

The accompanying December 31, 1997, balance sheet and related statements of
operations and cash flows for the four-month period ended December 31, 1997, are
presented on a new basis of accounting, reflecting the impact of the News
Corporation acquisition. The accompanying financial statements for the
eight-month period ended August 31, 1997, are presented as "Predecessor"
financial statements.

DISCLOSURE OF CERTAIN SIGNIFICANT RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

F-53
<PAGE> 155
THE PORTLAND, OREGON AND ROCHESTER, NEW YORK RADIO GROUPS
OF HERITAGE MEDIA SERVICES, INC. -- BROADCASTING SEGMENT

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK

The Company's revenues and accounts receivable relate primarily to the sale
of advertising within the radio stations' broadcast areas. Credit is extended
based on an evaluation of the customers' financial condition. Credit losses are
provided for in the financial statements.

In the opinion of management, credit risk with respect to trade receivables
is limited due to the large number of diversified customers and the geographic
diversification of the Company's customer base. The Company performs ongoing
credit evaluations of its customers and believes that adequate allowances for
any uncollectible trade receivables are maintained. At December 31, 1997, no
receivable from any customer exceeded 5% of stockholders' equity, and no
customer accounted for more than 10% of net revenues for the eight months ended
August 31, 1997 or for the four months ended December 31, 1997.

ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE BROADCASTING ASSETS

Acquired intangible broadcasting assets are being amortized over periods of
4 to 40 years. These amounts result from the acquisition of certain radio
station license and nonlicense assets by The News Corporation (see Note 1). The
Company monitors the individual financial performance of each of the stations
and continually evaluates the realizability of intangible and tangible assets
and the existence of any impairment to its recoverability based on the projected
undiscounted cash flows of the respective stations.

Intangible assets consist of the following as of December 31, 1997 (in
thousands):

BARTER TRANSACTIONS

Certain program contracts provide for the exchange of advertising air time
in lieu of cash payments for the rights to such programming. These contracts are
recorded as the programs are aired at the estimated fair value of the
advertising air time given in exchange for the program rights. Network
programming is excluded from these calculations.

The Company broadcasts certain customers' advertising in exchange for
equipment, merchandise and services. The estimated fair value of the equipment,
merchandise or services received is recorded as deferred barter costs and the
corresponding obligation to broadcast advertising is recorded as deferred barter
revenues. The deferred barter costs are expensed or capitalized as they are
used, consumed or received. Deferred barter revenues are recognized as the
related advertising is aired.

REVENUES

Revenue from the sale of commercial broadcast time to advertisers is
recognized when the commercials are broadcast. Promotional fees are recognized
as services are rendered.

3. DUE TO AFFILIATE:

The Predecessor had an arrangement with HMSI whereby HMSI would provide
certain management and other services to the Predecessor. The services provided
included consultation and direct management assistance with respect to
operations and strategic planning. The Predecessor was allocated approximately
$814,000 of corporate overhead expenses for these services for the eight months
ended August 31, 1997.

In order to fund acquisitions and provide operating funds, HMSI entered into a
Bank Credit Agreement. The debt used to finance acquisitions and fund daily
operations of the Predecessor was recorded by the Predecessor as due to
affiliate in the year ending December 31, 1996. HMSI allocated interest at a
rate of approximately 10.0%, which approximated the average rate paid on the
borrowings. Associated with the HMSI debt, the Predecessor was allocated
approximately $0.6 million of deferred financing costs in 1996. The deferred
financing costs were fully amortized in accordance with the acquisition by News
Corporation on September 1, 1997.

4. INCOME TAXES:

The Parent files a consolidated federal tax return and separate state tax
returns for each of its subsidiaries in certain filing jurisdictions. It is the
Parent's policy to pay the federal income tax provision of the Company. The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
separate return method of FASB 109, whereby the allocation of the federal tax
provision due to the Parent is based on what the Company's current and deferred
federal tax provision would have been had the Company filed a federal income tax
return outside of its consolidated group. The Company is not required to
reimburse the Parent for its federal tax provision. Accordingly, this amount is
recorded as a capital contribution in the accompanying consolidated financial
statements. No federal deferred tax assets or liabilities are recorded because
those amounts are considered currently paid to or received by the Parent. The
federal and state tax provision was calculated based on pretax income, plus or
minus permanent book-to-tax differences, times the statutory tax rate of 40%.
The Company had no alternative minimum tax credit carryforwards as of December
31, 1997. The effective tax rate in the current year exceeds the statutory tax
rate of 40% due to the effects of nondeductible goodwill.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Heritage Media Services, Inc. ("HMSI") operates in two
segments -- Marketing Services and Broadcasting. Heritage Media Corporation is
the parent company of HMSI, (collectively referred to hereafter as either "HMC"
or the "Parent"). The Broadcasting Segment was wholly-owned and operated by
HMSI, which was owned by HMC through August 31, 1997 (the "Predecessor"). In
July 1997, HMC entered into an asset sale agreement with Sinclair Broadcast
Group, Inc. ("SBG") whereby SBG would acquire 100% of the Broadcasting Segment
(which consisted of six television stations in three markets and 24 radio
stations in seven markets) for $630 million in cash. Effective September 1,
1997, The News Corporation Limited ("News Corporation") acquired all of the
license and nonlicense assets of HMC. Due to certain regulatory requirements,
News Corporation established a trust to hold all of the license and nonlicense
assets of the Broadcasting Segment until the sale to SBG had closed. The
acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting whereby
the purchase price was allocated to property and programming assets and acquired
intangible broadcasting assets of $51.4 million and $578.6 million,
respectively.

During January 1998, Entertainment Communications, Inc. ("Entercom")
entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement with Tuscaloosa Broadcasting Inc.,
Sinclair Radio of Portland Licensee, Inc. and Sinclair Radio of Rochester
Licensee, Inc. (collectively referred to hereafter as "Sinclair") to acquire
KKSN-AM, KKSN-FM and KKRH-FM, all serving the Portland, Oregon radio market and
WBBF-AM, WBBF-FM, WKLX-FM and WQRV-FM, all serving the Rochester, New York radio
market for a purchase price of $126.5 million. Simultaneously with the above
agreement, Entercom entered into a Time Brokerage Agreement ("TBA") with
Sinclair whereby, effective March 1, 1998, Entercom programs these stations for
the period prior to consummation of the purchase agreement and Sinclair receives
a monthly TBA fee of $631,500. Effective March 1, 1998, SBG completed its
acquisition of the Portland, Oregon and Rochester, New York Radio Groups from
News Corporation. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting whereby the purchase price was allocated to the assets to be sold. In
June 1998, Entercom closed its transaction with Sinclair. The accompanying
combined financial statements include the accounts of the Portland, Oregon and
Rochester, New York Radio Group, which are collectively referred to hereafter as
"the Company."

The accompanying March 31, 1998, balance sheet and the related statements
of operations and cash flows for the one-month period ended March 31, 1998, are
presented on a new basis of accounting, reflecting the impact of the acquisition
by SBG. The accompanying financial statements for the three months ended March
31, 1997, and the two months ended February 28, 1998, are presented as
"Predecessor" financial statements.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The combined financial statements for the period ended March 31, 1997, the
two months ended February 28, 1998, and the one month ended March 31, 1998, are

unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial statements have been
presented on the same basis as the audited combined financial statements and
include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments
necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of
operations, and cash flows for these periods. The results of operations
presented in the accompanying financial statements are not necessarily
representative of operations for an entire year.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Entercom Communications Corp.:

We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheet of the Boston Radio
Market of CBS Radio, Inc. (the "Boston Radio Market") (formerly American Radio
Systems Corporation ("ARS") prior to the sale of ARS to CBS on June 4, 1998),
which is comprised of radio properties owned by CBS Radio, Inc., a wholly owned
subsidiary of CBS Corporation ("CBS") as of December 31, 1997, and the related
combined statements of operations and equity and cash flows for the year ended
December 31, 1997. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
management of the Boston Radio Market. Our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements based on our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the combined financial position of the Boston Radio Market as of
December 31, 1997, and the results of their combined operations and their
combined cash flows for the year then ended in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles.

The accompanying combined financial statements have been prepared from the
separate accounting records maintained by the Boston Radio Market while owned by
ARS and may not be indicative of the conditions that would have existed or the
results of operations had the assets to be sold been operated as an unaffiliated
company. As discussed in Note 1, certain of the operating expenses represent
allocations made by ARS in the accompanying financial statements.

In August 1998, CBS Radio, Inc. entered into an agreement to sell the net
assets of the Boston Radio Market to Entercom Communications Corp. On December
11, 1998, CBS Radio Inc. sold the net assets of WRKO-AM and WEEI-AM, which
comprise a portion of the Boston Radio Market, to Entercom Communications Corp.

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION -- The accompanying financial statements
present the combined assets, liabilities and operations of the Boston Radio
Market of CBS Radio, Inc. (the "Boston Radio Market"), which is comprised of
radio stations WRKO-AM, WEEI-AM, WEGQ-FM, WAAF-FM, serving the Boston,
Massachusetts, radio market, and WWTM-AM, serving the Worcester, Massachusetts,
radio market (the "Stations"). Through June 4, 1998, the Stations were owned by
American Radio Systems Corporation (the "Predecessor Owner" or "ARS"), an
operator of radio stations throughout the United States. On June 4, 1998, ARS
was acquired by CBS Radio, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of CBS Corporation
(collectively with CBS Radio, Inc., "CBS" or the "Current Owner"). In connection
with the acquisition of ARS by CBS (the "ARS/CBS merger"), CBS was required to
sell the Boston Radio Market to comply with certain regulations of the FCC.
During August 1998, CBS entered into purchase and sale agreements with Entercom
Communications Corp. ("Entercom") to sell the net assets of the Boston Radio
Market for approximately $140.0 million, subject to receipt of regulatory
approval which is expected to be received during 1998 (See note 7 for further
discussion). CBS and ARS are referred to as the Stations' "Owners" for purposes
of these notes to combined financial statements. All significant intercompany
transactions have been eliminated in combination.

INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION -- The financial statements for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, the five months ended May 31, 1998, and the
four months ended September 30, 1998 are unaudited. Except for the application
of Accounting Principle Board Opinion No. 16, "Business Combination," to the
Station's financial statements while owned by the Current Owner, the
accompanying unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared on a
basis substantially consistent with that of the audited Predecessor Owner's
financial statements included herein. For purposes of preparing the Current
Owner's unaudited financial statements, the ARS/CBS merger is assumed to have
occurred on May 31, 1998. In the opinion of management, such unaudited financial
statements include all adjustments, which are only of a normal and recurring
nature, considered necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the
unaudited periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that
may be expected for a full year.

REVENUE RECOGNITION -- Revenues are recognized when advertisements are
broadcast.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT -- Property and equipment at December 31, 1997 are
recorded at cost, and depreciation is computed using straight-line and
accelerated methods over estimated useful lives ranging from three to twenty
years. Property and equipment at September 30, 1998, reflects the allocation of
the CBS purchase price to the Stations' assets, net of depreciation computed
using straight-line methods over estimated useful lives ranging from three to
thirty-nine years.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS -- Intangible assets consist primarily of goodwill, FCC
licenses, and call letters acquired in connection with the acquisition of the
Stations and are being

F-69
<PAGE> 171
THE BOSTON RADIO MARKET OF CBS RADIO, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

amortized over their respective estimated useful lives (ranging from one to
forty years) using the straight-line method.

On an ongoing basis, management evaluates the recoverability of the net
carrying value of property and equipment and intangible assets by reference to
the Stations' anticipated undiscounted future cash flows generated by said
assets and comparison of carrying value to management's estimates of fair value,
generally determined by using certain accepted industry measures of value
(principally, cash flow multiple methods).

Intangible assets at September 30, 1998 reflect the allocation of the CBS
purchase price to the Stations' assets, net of amortization computed using the
straight-line method over an estimated useful life of forty years.

INCOME TAXES -- The results of the Stations' operations are included in the
federal and state income tax returns filed by the Stations' Owners. The
Stations' portion of the income tax provision (benefit) is allocated at a
federal and state computed statutory rate of 40.3%. The Stations' federal and
state income taxes are generally paid to, or refunded from, the Owners. Deferred
tax assets and liabilities are maintained at the Owners' ownership levels.

BARTER TRANSACTIONS -- Revenues from the Stations' exchanges of advertising
time for goods or services are recognized at the fair market value of the items
received or to be received. The value of the goods and services received is
recognized in both net revenues and operating expenses. Net unearned barter
balances are included in accounts receivable.

Barter transactions are reported on a net basis within operating expenses
and balances as of and for the year ended December 31, 1997 were approximately
as follows:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Barter revenues............................................ $2,273,689
Barter expenses............................................ 1,978,702
Net barter receivable...................................... 120,852
</TABLE>

USE OF ESTIMATES -- The preparation of combined financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial
statements and accompanying notes to the financial statements. Management bases
its estimates on certain assumptions which they believe are reasonable in the
circumstances, and while actual results could differ from those estimates,
management does not believe that any change in those assumptions in the near
term would have a material effect on its financial position, results of
operations or liquidity.

ALLOCATION OF CERTAIN OPERATING EXPENSES -- The operations, as presented
herein, include allocations and estimates of certain expenses, principally
corporate accounting and tax, rent, administrative salaries, and legal,
historically provided to the Stations by the Owners. The amounts of such
allocated expenses in these combined financial statements have been allocated by
management based on a variety of factors, including, for example, personnel,
labor costs and square footage. Management believes these allocations have been
made on a reasonable basis. However, the financial position and results of
operations, as presented herein, may not be the same as would have occurred had
the Stations been operated as a stand-alone entity.

F-70
<PAGE> 172
THE BOSTON RADIO MARKET OF CBS RADIO, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

Interest expense incurred by the Owners under various long-term debt
arrangements has not historically been allocated to the Stations and,
accordingly, the accompanying combined financial statements do not include
interest expense. See Note 4 for interest expense associated with a capitalized
lease obligation.

CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK -- The Stations extend credit to customers on
an unsecured basis in the normal course of business. No individual industry or
industry segment is significant to the Stations' customer base. The Stations
have policies governing the extension of credit and collection of amounts due
from customers.

SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION -- The Stations participate in a
centralized cash management system maintained by the Owners. Accordingly, cash
balances are not maintained at the Stations. The Stations' assets are pledged as
collateral for the Owners' long-term debt agreements.

Cash paid for interest aggregated $44,900 during 1997.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS -- In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities," which the Stations will adopt during fiscal year 2000. The
adoption of SFAS No. 133 is not expected to have a material impact on the
Stations' combined financial statements.

2. ACQUISITIONS

In January 1997, ARS completed the acquisition of WAAF-FM and WWTM-AM for
an aggregate purchase price of approximately $24.8 million (the "1997
Acquisition"). The purchase price related to the 1997 Acquisition was allocated
to the assets acquired, principally intangible assets, based on their estimated
fair value at the date of acquisition. Since the acquisition, the 1997
Acquisition has been included as a component of the Boston Radio Market. The
Predecessor Owner began programming and marketing the Stations pursuant to a
Local Marketing Agreement ("LMA") in August 1996 and, as a result, proforma
financial information has not been presented as such information would not be
materially different from the amounts presented in the historical 1997 combined
statements of operations.

4. CAPITALIZED LEASE OBLIGATION

In September of 1996, an equipment lease agreement with Fleet Capital
Corporation dated May 17, 1990 was extended for an additional twenty-four
months. Upon the lease's final payment in August 1998, ownership of the property
was transferred to the Stations. Interest expense, reported within general and
administrative expense in the accompanying combined statement of operations,
aggregated $32,400 during 1997.

5. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN

Through December 31, 1997, employees of the Stations participated in a
retirement savings plan (the "Plan") sponsored by the Predecessor Owner. The
Plan is a defined contribution plan that covers eligible salaried employees who
have at least one year of service. Participants may make pre-tax contributions
to the Plan up to 10% of their compensation, not to exceed the annual limit
prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service. The Owners matched contributions to
the Plan in an amount equal to 100% of the first 5%

F-72
<PAGE> 174
THE BOSTON RADIO MARKET OF CBS RADIO, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

of base compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan, unless
otherwise determined by annual resolution. The Stations were charged $90,000 by
the Predecessor Owner for the year ended December 31, 1997.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

BROADCAST RIGHTS -- At December 31, 1997, the Stations were committed to
the purchase of broadcast rights for various sports events and other
programming, including on-air talent, aggregating approximately $21,134,000.
This programming is not yet available for broadcast. As of December 31, 1997,
aggregate payments related to these commitments during the next five years are
as follows (in thousands):

LEASES -- The Stations lease various offices, studios, and broadcast and
other equipment under operating leases that expire over various terms. Most
leases contain renewal options with specified increases in lease payments in the
event of renewal by the Stations.

Future minimum rental payments required under noncancellable operating
leases in effect at December 31, 1997 are approximately as follows (in
thousands):

<TABLE>

Total....................................................... $3,239
======
</TABLE>

Aggregate rent expense under operating leases for the year ended December
31, 1997 approximated $438,000.

AUDIENCE RATING AND OTHER SERVICE EMPLOYMENT CONTRACTS -- The Stations have
entered into various noncancellable audience rating and other service and
employment contracts that expire over the next five years. Most of these
audience rating and other service agreements are subject to escalation clauses
and may be renewed for successive

F-73

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

periods ranging from one to five years on terms similar to current agreements,

* * * * * *

7. SUBSEQUENT EVENT

In relation to the agreement of sale between CBS Radio Inc. and Entercom
Communications Corp., Entercom Communications Corp. began operating WEEI-AM and
WRKO-AM on September 21, 1998 and WEGQ-FM, WAAF-FM, and WWTM-AM on September 23,
1998 under a time brokerage agreement. Under the time brokerage agreement, CBS
Radio Inc. will permit Entercom Communications Corp. to program and market the
Boston Radio Market for a fee of $590,000 per month.

On December 11, 1998 CBS Radio Inc. sold the net assets of WRKO-AM and

SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES -- RADIO DIVISION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1996, 1997 AND 1998, AND MARCH 31, 1999

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. and subsidiaries -- Radio Division ("the
Company") was formed through acquisition. Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. ("SBG")
entered into the radio business in May 1996 when it acquired radio stations from
River City Broadcasting LLP ("River City"). As a result of the River City
acquisition, the Company now owns radio stations serving the Memphis, Buffalo
and Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton markets. In addition, SBG purchased from River City
the right to acquire certain radio stations serving the
Greenville/Spartansburg/Asheville market and exercised the right to acquire
these stations in July 1998. In March and July 1998, SBG acquired radio stations
from Heritage Media Services, Inc. ("Heritage") serving the Kansas City,
Milwaukee and New Orleans markets. In July 1998, SBG acquired radio stations
from Max Media Properties, LLC ("Max Media") serving the Greensboro/Winston
Salem/ High-Point and Norfolk markets. These acquisitions and other less
significant acquisitions and dispositions have been recorded under the purchase
method of accounting.

The divisional financial statements include operating results of SBG's
radio assets acquired from their respective dates of acquisition (see Note 8),
excluding the radio stations operating in the St. Louis market (See Note 10).
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared from SBG's historical
accounting records and present the operations of the Radio Division as if the
Company had been a separate entity for all periods presented. During these
periods, SBG provided various services to the Company (see Note 4). Furthermore,
acquisitions consummated by SBG have been presented as if they were made by the
Company and the consideration to effect these acquisitions was both loaned and
contributed by SBG. All significant intercompany transactions and account
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial information included herein may not necessarily reflect the
consolidated results of operations, financial position, changes in stockholders'
equity and cash flows of the Company in the future or what they would have been
had it been a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated
financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during
the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an
ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those related to
intangible assets, sports rights contracts, allowances for doubtful accounts,
income taxes and litigation based on currently available information. Changes in
facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair value of financial instruments is determined by the
Company using the best available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgment is necessary in interpreting
market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates
are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in
a current market exchange or the value that ultimately will be realized by the
Company upon maturity or disposition. The use of different market assumptions or
estimation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value
amounts.

Most of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, accounts
receivable and payable and accruals are short-term in nature. Accordingly, the
carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments approximates their fair
value.

Interest rates on the Company's intercompany debt are based upon SBG's
floating interest rate. Management believes that these rates are at fair market
value; however, these rates may not be reflective of rates available to the
Company as a stand-alone entity.

BARTER ARRANGEMENTS

The Company broadcasts certain customers' advertising in exchange for
equipment, merchandise and services. The estimated fair value of the equipment,
merchandise or services received is recorded as deferred barter costs and the
corresponding obligation to broadcast advertising is recorded as deferred barter
revenue. The deferred barter costs are expensed or capitalized as they are used,
consumed or received. Deferred barter revenue is recognized as the related
advertising is aired.

SPORTS RIGHTS

The Company has agreements for the rights to air sports programming over
contract periods which generally run from one to three years. Contract payments
are made in installments over terms that are generally shorter than the contract
period. The aggregate amount of programming rights for each season is recorded
as an asset and a liability during the season in which the sports programming
become available to be aired. The portion of the sport rights contract payable
within one year is reflected as a current liability in the accompanying
consolidated balance sheets. Amortization of sports rights is recognized on a
straight-line basis over the period which the sports programming is aired.
Additionally, the Company has entered into noncancellable commitments for sports
programming rights over the next four years, aggregating $10.5 million as of
March 31, 1999.

The Company has estimated the fair value of these noncancellable
commitments at approximately $9.0 million at March 31, 1999. These estimates are
based on future cash flows discounted at the Company's current borrowing rate.

ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE BROADCASTING ASSETS

Acquired intangible broadcasting assets are being amortized on a
straight-line basis over periods of 15 to 40 years. These amounts result from
the acquisition of radio station broadcasting assets. The Company monitors and
continually evaluates the realizability of intangible and tangible assets and
the existence of any impairment to its recoverability based on the projected
undiscounted cash flows of the respective stations. Management believes that the
carrying amounts of the Company's tangible and intangible assets have not been
impaired.

Intangible broadcasting assets, at cost, as of December 31, 1997 and 1998,
and March 31, 1999, consist of the following (in thousands):

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Broadcasting revenues are derived principally from the sale of radio
advertising spots to local, regional and national advertisers. Advertising
revenue is recognized in the period during which the program time and spot
announcements are broadcast.

NEW PRONOUNCEMENTS

In June 1997, SFAS No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" was issued.
SFAS No. 130 requires that an enterprise report by major component and as a
single total the change in its net assets from nonowner sources during the
period. This statement is effective for fiscal years beginning after December
15, 1997, and was adopted during 1998. Adoption of this statement did not impact
the Company's combined financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

2. PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT:

Property and equipment are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation.

3. PARENT COMPANY INDEBTEDNESS:

In connection with the acquisitions discussed in Note 8, SBG made loans to
the Company. The Company has been charged interest on these loans at a rate of
interest equal to SBG's annual weighted average borrowing rate on its
outstanding indebtedness. The weighted average interest rates on parent company
indebtedness for the seven months ended December 31, 1996, the years ended
December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the three months ended March 31, 1999, were
9.0%, 7.9%, 6.6% and 6.3%, respectively.

Substantially all of the Company's assets have been pledged as security for
SBG's notes payable and commercial bank financing. Additionally, the operations
of the Company have been utilized to service the debt principal and interest
payments of SBG.

As part of the River City Acquisition (see Note 8), a portion of the
deferred financing costs incurred by SBG as a result of obtaining a Bank Credit
Agreement were allocated to the Radio Division. In 1998, SBG entered into a new
Bank Credit Agreement resulting in an extraordinary loss of $2.1 million, net of
a tax benefit of $1.4 million allocable to the Radio Division. The extraordinary
loss represents the write-off of debt acquisition costs associated with
indebtedness replaced by a new facility.

4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

The Company has utilized various services provided by SBG or its
subsidiaires. These services included, among others, certain investor relations,
executive, human resources, legal, investment, finance, real estate, information
management, internal audit, tax, transportation and treasury. The costs of such
services have been allocated according to established methodologies and are
determined on an annual basis by SBG. Such methodologies depend on the specific
service provided and include allocating costs that directly relate to the
Company or allocating costs that represent a pro rata portion of the

F-84
<PAGE> 186
SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES -- RADIO DIVISION

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)

total costs for the services provided. Management of the Company believes these
allocations to be a fair and reasonable share of such costs. For the seven
months ended December 31, 1996, for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998,
and for the three months ended March 31, 1999, allocated expenses of
approximately $1.7 million, $2.9 million, $3.5 million, and $0.8 million,
respectively, were included in the consolidated statements of operations of the
Company. Substantially all costs relating to direct intercompany services have
been reflected in the accompanying combined financial statements.

The Company's radio stations and SBG's television stations have
historically provided broadcast time to each other. The revenues or costs
associated with these intercompany transactions were not significant in the
periods presented.

The Company and SBG have entered into joint advertising arrangements.
Revenues are distributed to the parties providing the services based upon the
contract terms. The revenues associated with such sales were not significant in
the periods presented.

5. INCOME TAXES:

Income taxes are provided using the asset and liability method in
accordance with SFAS No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes." Deferred tax assets
and liabilities are recognized based on differences between book and tax basis
of assets and liabilities using presently enacted tax rates. The provision for
income taxes is the sum of the amount of income tax paid or payable for the year
as determined by applying the provisions of enacted tax laws to taxable income
for that year and the net changes during the year in the Company's deferred tax
assets and liabilities other than changes arising from acquisitions and
dispositions.

SBG files a consolidated federal tax return and separate state tax returns
for each of its subsidiaries. It is SBG's policy to reimburse the Company for
its federal net operating losses when generated through intercompany charges.
The Company is responsible for its current state tax liabilities. The
accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the
separate return method of FASB 109, whereby the allocation of federal tax
provision due to the parent is based on what the subsidiary's current and
deferred federal tax provision would have been had the subsidiary filed a
federal income tax return outside its consolidated group. Given that SBG is
required to reimburse the Company for its federal net operating losses when
generated, the value of the tax effected federal net operating losses is
recorded as an intercompany charge and included as a reduction of the due to
parent amount in the accompanying balance sheets.

Temporary differences between the financial reporting carrying amounts and
the tax basis of assets and liabilities give rise to deferred taxes. The Company
has a net deferred tax liability of $5.5 million, $6.9 million and $7.2 million
as of December 31, 1997 and 1998, and as of March 31, 1999, respectively. The
realization of deferred tax assets is contingent upon the Company's ability to
generate sufficient future taxable income to

realize the future tax benefits associated with the deferred tax assets.
Management believes that deferred assets will be realized through future
operating results.

Total deferred tax assets and deferred tax liabilities as of December 31,
1997 and 1998, and as of March 31, 1999, including the effects of the source of

Employees of the Company participate in the Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc.
401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and Trust (the "SBG Plan") which covers eligible
employees of the Company. Contributions made to the SBG Plan include an employee
elected salary reduction amount, company matching contributions and a
discretionary amount determined each year by SBG's Board of Directors. During
December 1997, SBG registered 800,000 shares of its Class "A" Common Stock with
the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") to be issued as a
matching contribution for the 1997 plan year and subsequent plan years. The
Company's 401(k) expense for the periods ended December 31, 1996, 1997 and 1998,
and the three months ended March 31, 1999, was $91,000, $177,000, $299,000 and
$89,000, respectively.

7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

8. ACQUISITIONS:

The acquisitions consummated by SBG have been presented as if they were
made by the Company and the consideration to effect these acquisitions was
either contributed or loaned by SBG.

RIVER CITY ACQUISITION

In May 1996, the Company entered into the radio business when it acquired
radio stations from River City Broadcasting LLP ("River City"). As a result of
the River City acquisition, the Company currently owns stations serving the
Memphis, Buffalo, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and New Orleans radio markets. In
addition, the Company acquired radio stations in the Nashville and Los Angeles
markets which were sold during 1998 (see 1998 Acquisitions and Dispositions
discussed below). The Company also purchased options to acquire additional radio
stations in the Buffalo, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Greenville/
Spartansburg/Asheville markets which have all since been exercised. In order to
complete the acquisition, SBG made loans and contributed capital to the Company
totaling $169.4 million and $110.0 million, respectively.

The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting
whereby the purchase price was allocated to property and programming assets,
acquired intangible broadcasting assets and other intangible assets for $22.0
million, $225.9 million and $31.5 million, respectively, based upon an
independent appraisal.

1997 ACQUISITIONS

During 1997, the Company exercised its options to acquire radio stations in
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton and Buffalo markets. These options were purchased in
connection with the River City Acquisition. The total option exercise price of
$3.1 million was allocated to acquired intangible broadcasting assets.

River City Acquisition in May of 1996 and acquired WRNO-FM and WBYU-AM in New
Orleans from Heritage in July 1998. The Company was required to divest WRNO-FM,
KMEZ-FM and WBYU-AM to meet certain regulatory ownership guidelines. The Company
utilized the proceeds to reduce parent company indebtedness.

GREENVILLE ACQUISITION. In July 1998, the Company acquired three radio
stations in the Greenville/Spartansburg market from Keymarket Radio of South

9. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA SUMMARY RESULTS OF OPERATIONS:

The following unaudited pro forma summary presents the consolidated results
of operations for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1998, as if significant
acquisitions and dispositions completed through December 31, 1998, had occurred
at the beginning of 1997. These pro forma results have been prepared for
comparative purposes only and do not purport to be indicative of what would have
occurred had significant acquisitions and dispositions been made as of that date
or of results which may occur in the future:

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENT:

ST. LOUIS PURCHASE OPTION. In connection with the acquisition of River
City, the Company entered into a five year agreement (the "Baker Agreement")
with Barry Baker (the Chief Executive Officer of River City) pursuant to which
Mr. Baker served as a consultant to the Company until terminating such services
effective March 8, 1999 (the "Termination Date"). As of February 8, 1999, the
conditions to Mr. Baker becoming an officer of the Company had not been
satisfied, and on that date Mr. Baker and the Company entered into a termination
agreement, effective on March 8, 1999. Mr. Baker had certain rights as a
consequence of the termination of the Baker Agreement. These rights included Mr.
Baker's right to purchase, at fair market value, the radio stations owned by the
Company serving the St. Louis, Missouri market.

In June 1999, the Company received a letter from Mr. Baker in which Mr.
Baker elected to exercise his option to purchase the radio properties of the
Company in the St. Louis market for their fair market value. In his letter, Mr.
Baker names Emmis Communications Corporation ("Emmis") as his designee. Sinclair
is evaluating the validity of Mr. Baker's designation of Emmis. In light of the
foregoing, the fact that negotiations of a definitive purchase agreement are yet
to commence, that a fair market value has not been determined, and that
approvals would be required from both the Department of Justice and the Federal
Communications Commission, there can be no assurance that the transactions
contemplated by the option will be consummated.

market is subject to a purchase option and may be acquired by another third
party as discussed above. The Entercom Disposition is subject to FCC and
Department of Justice approval.

KXOK-FM ACQUISITION. In August 1999, the Company completed the purchase of
radio station KXOK-FM in St. Louis, Missouri for a purchase price of $14.1
million in cash. KXOK is also subject to the St. Louis Purchase Option described

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

The divisional financial statements include operating results of SBG's
radio assets acquired from their respective dates of acquisition, excluding the
radio stations operating in the St. Louis market (see Note 3). These
consolidated financial statements have been prepared from SBG's historical
accounting records and present the operations of the Radio Divison as if the
Company had been a separate entity for all periods presented. During these
periods, SBG provided various services to the Company (see Note 2). Furthermore,
acquisitions consummated by SBG have been presented as if they were made by the
Company and the consideration to effect these acquisitions was both loaned and
contributed by SBG. All significant intercompany transactions and account
balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

The financial information included herein may not necessarily reflect the
consolidated results of operations, financial position, changes in equity and
cash flows of the Company in the future or what they would have been had it been
a separate, stand-alone entity during the periods presented.

INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30,
1998 and 1999 are unaudited, but in the opinion of management, such financial
statements have been presented on the same basis as the audited consolidated
financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial
position and results of operations, and cash flows for these periods.

As permitted under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities
and Exchange Commission, these financial statements do not include all
disclosures normally included with audited consolidated financial statements,
and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and notes thereto as of December 31, 1997, and 1998 and March 31,
1999 and for the periods then ended. The

results of operations presented in the accompanying financial statements are not
necessarily representative of operations for an entire year.

2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

The Company has utilized various services provided by SBG or its
subsidiaries. These services included, among others, certain investor relations,
executive, human resources, legal, investment, finance, real estate, information
management, internal audit, tax, transportation and treasury. The costs of such
services have been allocated according to established methodologies and are
determined on an annual basis by SBG. Such methodologies depend on the specific
service provided and include allocating costs that directly relate to the
Company or allocating costs that represent a pro rata portion of the total costs
for the services provided. Management of the Company believes these allocations
to be a fair and reasonable share of such costs. For the six months ended June
30, 1998 and 1999, allocated expenses of approximately $1.5 million (unaudited)
and $1.6 million (unaudited), respectively, were included in the consolidated
statements of operations of the Company. Substantially all costs relating to
direct intercompany services have been reflected in the accompanying combined
financial statements.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND 1996

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Heritage Media Services, Inc. ("HMSI") operates in three
segments -- Marketing Services, Television Broadcasting and Radio Broadcasting
is a division of Heritage Media Corporation ("HMC"). The accompanying
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the radio operations,
which are collectively referred to hereafter as "the Company, the Companies or
the Radio Broadcasting Segment." The Radio Broadcasting Segment was wholly-owned
and operated by HMSI, which was owned by HMC through August 31, 1997 (the
Predecessor). In July 1997, HMC entered into an asset sale agreement with
Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. ("SBG") whereby SBG would acquire 100% of the
Television and Radio Broadcasting Segment for $630 million. Effective September
1, 1997, The News Corporation Limited ("News Corporation") acquired all of the
license and nonlicense assets of HMC. Due to certain regulatory requirements,
News Corporation established a trust to hold all of the license and nonlicense
assets of the Radio Broadcasting Segment until the sale to SBG closed. The
acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting whereby
the purchase price of $340 million for the Radio Broadcasting Segment was
allocated to property and programming assets and acquired intangible
broadcasting assets of approximately $18 million and $322 million, respectively.
During March 1998, the sale to SBG was completed.

The accompanying December 31, 1997, combined balance sheet and related
combined statements of operations and cash flows for the four-month period ended
December 31, 1997, are presented on a new basis of accounting to reflect the
News Corporation acquisition. The accompanying combined financial statements for
the eight-month period ended August 31, 1997, and for the year ended December
31, 1996, are presented as "Predecessor" financial statements.

USE OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. On an
ongoing basis, management reviews its estimates, including those related to
intangible assets, contracts, allowances for doubtful accounts, income taxes and
litigation based on currently available information. Changes in facts and
circumstances may result in revised estimates.

ACQUIRED INTANGIBLE BROADCASTING ASSETS

Acquired intangible broadcasting assets are being amortized over periods of
four to 40 years. These amounts result from the acquisition of certain radio
station license and nonlicense assets (see Notes 1 and 8). The Company monitors
the individual financial performance of each of the stations and continually
evaluates the realizability of intangible and tangible assets and the existence
of any impairment to its recoverability based on the projected undiscounted cash
flows of the respective stations. Management believes that the carrying amounts
of the Company's tangible and intangible assets have not been impaired.

Intangible assets consist of the following as of December 31, 1997 and 1996
(in thousands):

BARTER TRANSACTIONS

OTHER ASSETS

Debt issuance costs are amortized to interest expense using the effective
interest method over the period of the related debt agreement.

REVENUES

Revenues are primarily derived from the sale of radio advertising spots and
are recognized when the spots are broadcast. Advertising revenues are presented
net of advertising agency and national sales representative commissions.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The estimated fair value of financial instruments is determined by the
Company using the best available market information and appropriate valuation
methodologies. However, considerable judgement is necessary in interpreting
market data to develop the estimates of fair value. Accordingly, the estimates
are not necessarily indicative of the amounts that the Company could realize in
current market exchange or the value that ultimately will be realized by the
Company upon maturity or disposition. The use of different market or estimation
methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts.

Most of the Company's financial instruments, including cash, trade
receivables and payables and accruals, are short-term in nature. Accordingly,
the carrying amount of the Company's financial instruments approximate their
fair value.

RECLASSIFICATIONS

Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year financial
statements to conform with the current year presentation.

3. DUE TO AFFILIATE:

The Predecessor had an arrangement with HMSI whereby HMSI would provide
certain management and other services to the Predecessor. The services provided
included consultation and direct management assistance with respect to
operations and strategic planning. The Predecessor was allocated approximately
$2,548,000 and $1,150,000 of corporate overhead expenses for these services for
the eight months ended August 31, 1997, and for the year ended December 31,
1996, respectively.

In order to fund acquisitions and provide operating funds, HMSI entered
into a Bank Credit Agreement. The debt used to finance acquisitions and fund
daily operations of the Predecessor was recorded by the Predecessor as due to
affiliate in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets as of December 31,
1996. HMSI allocated interest at a rate of approximately 10.0%, which
approximated the average rate paid on the borrowings. Associated with the HMSI
debt, the Predecessor was allocated approximately $183,000 of deferred financing
costs in 1996. The deferred financing costs were fully amortized in conjunction
with the acquisition by News Corporation on September 1, 1997.

4. INCOME TAXES:

HMC files a consolidated federal tax return and separate state tax returns
for each of its subsidiaries in certain filing jurisdictions. It is HMC's policy
to pay the federal income tax provision of the Company. The accompanying
financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the separate return
method of FASB 109, whereby the allocation of the federal tax provision due to
HMC is based on what the Company's current and deferred federal tax provision
would have been had the Company filed a federal income tax return outside of its
consolidated group. The Company is not required to reimburse HMC for its federal
tax provision. Accordingly, this amount is recorded as a capital contribution in
the accompanying combined financial statements. The federal and state tax
provision was calculated based on pretax income, plus or minus permanent
book-to-tax differences, at the statutory tax rate of 40%.
