     This statement is filed by Children's Broadcasting Corporation, a Minnesota
     corporation which formerly broadcast children's radio in the United States,
     with its principal business and principal executive offices at 724 First

     The attached Schedule I is a list of the executive officers and directors
     of the Company which contains the following information regarding each
     person listed on such schedule:

          (a)  name;

          (b)  residence or business address;

          (c)  present principal occupation or employment and, if other than the
               Company, the name, principal business and address of any
               corporation or other organization in which such employment is
               conducted; and

     During the past five years, neither the Company nor, to the best of the
     Company's knowledge, any person named in Schedule I has been convicted in a
     criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors)
     or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body
     of competent jurisdiction as a result of which it was or is subject to a
     judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or
     prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities
     laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

     (as hereinafter defined) pursuant to the Securities Purchase Agreement by
