Item 7.(b) Pro forma financial information.
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements give
effect to the Merger. For accounting purposes the Merger will be accounted for
as a purchase of Universal by the Company; accordingly the net assets of
Universal have been adjusted to their estimated fair values based upon a
preliminary purchase price allocation.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations for the year
ended December 31, 1997 give effect to the Merger as if it had occurred at
January 1, 1997. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet at
December 31, 1997 gives effect to the Merger as if it occurred on December 31,
1997.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed statements of operations were
prepared based upon the historical statement of operations of the Company
adjusted to reflect the acquisition of Eller Media and the Paxson Radio
Acquisition as if such acquisitions had occurred at January 1, 1997 (Clear
Channel Pro Forma) and the historical statement of operations of Universal. The
unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet was prepared based upon the
historical balance sheets of the Company and Universal.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements do not give
effect to any potential divestitures or regulatory costs that may be imposed by
a Governmental entity as a condition for their approval of the Merger.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements should be read
in conjunction with the historical financial statements of the Company and
Universal included herein.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are not
necessarily indicative of the actual results of operations or financial position
that would have occurred had the Merger and the above described acquisitions by
the Company and Universal occurred on the dates indicated nor are they
necessarily indicative of future operating results or financial position.

Income
(in Thousands)
--------------
<S> <C>
(a) Increase in amortization of goodwill of $5,205 resulting from the additional $(5,974)
goodwill created by the acquisition and a decrease in amortizable life from 40
years (Eller Media) to 25 years (The Company) and additional depreciation of $769
related to the adjustment of fixed assets to fair value.
(b) Increase in interest expense due to a higher amount of average debt outstanding (2,518)
which was partially offset by a lower average interest rate (6% average rate for
The Company and 8.8% for Eller Media during the first three months of 1997).
(c) Tax effect of the above adjustments to depreciation and interest expense at The 1,315
Company's estimated effective tax rate of 40%

tax rate of 40%. 13,339
(e) This pro forma does not include certain benefits Clear Channel believes it will
achieve through the discontinuance of a corporate headquarters operating solely
for the Paxson Radio stations. Paxson Radio's historical statement of operations
for the year ended December 31, 1997 includes $4,059, $2,435 net of tax, of
expenses as the allocation of corporate expense. Clear Channel does not expect
to incur these expenses relating to the Paxson Radio stations subsequent to
the acquisition.
