                  This Amendment No. 3 amends and supplements Items 4, 5, 6 and
7 of the Schedule 13D (the "Schedule 13D") of Robert F.X. Sillerman with
respect to the shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the
"Class A Common Stock"), of SFX Broadcasting, Inc. (the "Company").

ITEM 4.           PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

ITEM 5.           INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

ITEM 6.           CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH
                  RESPECT TO THE SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

                  Items 4, 5 and 6 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended by
adding the following to the disclosure contained in the Schedule 13D:

                  The description of the Merger Agreement and the Stockholder
Agreement (as such terms are hereinafter defined) herein contained does not
purport to be complete and is qualified by reference to the copy of the Merger
Agreement and the Stockholder Agreement attached hereto as exhibits, which are
incorporated herein by reference.

                  The Company has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger,
dated as of August 24, 1997 (the "Merger Agreement"), among SBI Holding
Corporation ("Parent"), SBI Radio Acquisition Corporation ("Sub") and the
Company pursuant to which Sub will merge (the "Merger") with and into the
Company and the Company will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the consummation of the Merger, each
outstanding share of Class A Common Stock shall be canceled and converted into
the right to receive $75.00 in cash (subject to increase under certain
circumstances described in the Merger Agreement) and each outstanding share of
Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), of
the Company shall be canceled and converted into the right to receive $97.50 in
cash (subject to increase under certain circumstances described in the Merger
Agreement). The holders of each outstanding option and warrant to purchase
Class A Common Stock shall be entitled to receive cash in an amount equal to
the difference between $75.00 (subject to increase under certain circumstances
described in the Merger Agreement) and the exercise price of such options and
warrants.

                  In addition, the Merger Agreement also provides for the
distribution to the Company's stockholders of the concert promotion business by
a pro rata distribution, to the holders of Class A Common Stock and Class B
Common Stock (collectively, the "Common Stock"), in a taxable transaction, of
all of the capital stock owned by the Company in Delsener/Slater Holdings (as
defined in the Merger Agreement) which in turn will hold all of the capital
stock in SFX Concerts, Inc. (the "Spin Off"), with the holders of the Class A
Common Stock and Class B Common Stock receiving in the Spin Off Class A common
stock and Class B common stock of Delsener/Slater Holdings having features
similar to the Company's Class A Common Stock and Class B


                               Page 3 of 7 Pages

<PAGE>

Common Stock. In addition, the holders of certain warrants to purchase Class A
Common Stock shall receive, upon the exercise of such warrants, Class A common
stock of Delsener/Slater Holdings having features similar to the Company's
Class A Common Stock. Instead of consummating the Spin Off, the Company may,
under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement, dispose of the
concert promotion business through an Alternative Transaction (as defined in
the Merger Agreement). It is contemplated that the Spin Off will occur prior to
or simultaneous with the consummation of the Merger. Delsener/Slater Holdings
is to receive the Working Capital (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the
Company as of the consummation of the Merger. The consideration to be paid to
the holders of Common Stock is subject to increase, under the circumstances set
forth in the Merger Agreement (a) in the event that the Merger shall not have
been consummated before May 31, 1998 and Parent extends the Termination Date
(as defined in the Merger Agreement), (b) in the event that the Spin Off or
Alternative Transaction is not consummated at or prior to the consummation of
the Merger and the Parent shall have waived the satisfaction of this condition
or (c) as a result of adjustments to Working Capital.

                  The consummation of the Merger is conditioned upon, among
other things, (a) the approval of the stockholders of the Company of (i) the
amendments to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation contemplated
by the Merger Agreement (which shall be subject to the affirmative vote of the
holders of a majority of voting power of all outstanding shares of Common
Stock, voting as a single class and the affirmative vote of the holders of a
majority of the voting power of all outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock
and Series D Preferred Stock, each voting as a separate class) and (ii) the
Merger Agreement and the Merger (which shall be subject to the affirmative vote
of the holders of a majority of voting power of all outstanding shares of
Common Stock, voting as a single class), in the manner contemplated in the
Merger Agreement; (b) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting
period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended, and (c) the receipt from the Federal Communications Commission of the
FCC Consent (as such term is defined in the Merger Agreement).

                  Upon the consummation of the Merger, the shares of Class A
Common Stock will no longer be authorized to be quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market System and will become eligible for termination of registration pursuant
to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"). Upon consummation of the Merger, Parent, as the sole
stockholder of the Company, will have the right to elect all of the directors
of the Company.

                  In addition, concurrently with the execution of the Merger
Agreement and as a condition of the willingness of Parent to enter into the
Merger Agreement, Mr. Sillerman entered into a Stockholder Agreement, dated as
of August 24, 1997 (the "Stockholder Agreement"), among Parent, Sub, the
Company and Mr. Sillerman. Pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions
of the Stockholder Agreement, Mr. Sillerman is required to vote all shares of
Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock which he Beneficially Owns (as
such term is defined in the Stockholder Agreement) (a) in favor of the Merger
and the amendments to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation
contemplated thereby, (b) against any Acquisition Proposal (as such term is
defined in the Stockholder Agreement) involving the Company (other than the
Merger), and (c) to


                               Page 4 of 7 Pages

<PAGE>

the extent that any of the following could reasonably be expected to impede or
interfere with the Merger, or are intended to lead to an alternative
acquisition proposal, any change in a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Company, any change in the present capitalization of the Company or any change
to the Company's Restated Certificate of Incorporation. Mr. Sillerman's
obligations to vote as described terminates upon the earlier of the
consummation of the Merger or the first anniversary of the termination of the
Merger Agreement.

                  In the event that Mr. Sillerman sells or transfers his shares
of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock in connection with the
consummation of an Acquisition Proposal involving the Company (other than the
Merger) that is in existence on or that has been made prior to the first
anniversary of the termination of the Merger Agreement (an "Alternate
Disposition"), he is required to pay to Parent the difference between the total
consideration received by him upon the consummation of such Alternate
Disposition and any other transactions contemplated thereby and the total
consideration to be received by him upon the consummation of the Merger and the
transactions contemplated thereby.

                  In the event that the consideration currently provided for in
the Merger Agreement is increased (a "Second Transaction"), Mr. Sillerman is
required to pay to Parent, except in certain specified circumstances, the
difference between the total consideration received by him upon the
consummation of the Second Transaction and any other transactions contemplated
thereby and the consideration to be received by him upon the consummation of
the Merger and the transactions contemplated thereby or waive the right of him
and his affiliates to receive such difference.

                  Mr. Sillerman has agreed in the Stockholder Agreement that he
will not offer, sell, transfer, tender, pledge, encumber, assign or otherwise
dispose of any of the shares of Class A Common Stock or Class B Common Stock
and any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for such
shares which he Beneficially Owns or grant any proxy or power of attorney with
respect thereto but that Mr. Sillerman may, pledge or encumber such securities
in connection with a bona fide lending transaction with any institutional
lender that is not entered into in connection with an Acquisition Proposal, if
such lender gives at least 15 business days prior notice to Parent before
taking any sale or foreclosure action, in respect of such securities and during
such time will allow Parent the right to cure or acquire the loan, upon such
terms as may be mutually agreed to.

                  The Stockholder Agreement terminates upon the termination of
the Merger Agreement as a result of (1) (a) the Merger not having been
consummated on or before the Termination Date, as so extended, (b) the issuance
of a final and nonappealable order, injunction, decree or ruling permanently
enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting the Merger or (c) a Material
Breach (as defined in the Merger Agreement) by Parent of any representation,
warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in the Merger Agreement; and as
a result of such, the Company is entitled to request a release of the letter of
credit deposited into escrow by Parent upon the execution of the Merger
Agreement or (2) upon the mutual written consent of Parent, Sub and the Company
by mutual action of their respective Boards of Directors. Upon such
termination, the


                              Page 5 of 7 Pages

<PAGE>

Stockholders Agreement, including the obligation to vote against any
Acquisition Proposal, will be void and of no further force or effect.

                  From time to time, in connection with the entering into of
personal financial arrangements, Mr. Sillerman has executed pledge agreements
with respect to all or a portion of his shares of Common Stock. Certain of Mr.
Sillerman's shares are currently pledged to a major United States banking
institution pursuant to such a pledge agreement. Mr. Sillerman retains the
right to vote such shares until an event of default occurs.

                  The Form 10-Q of the Company for the period ended June 30,
1997 states that, as of August 4, 1997, there were 8,394,887 shares of Class A
Common Stock outstanding. Mr. Sillerman beneficially owns 2,219,564 shares of
Class A Common Stock (representing 21.2% of the outstanding shares, calculated
in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) by virtue of the
ownership by him or his affiliates of (a) 150,250 shares of Class A Common
Stock, (b) 1,024,169 shares of Class B Common Stock, and (c) options or
warrants exercisable within 60 days to purchase an aggregate of 1,045,145
shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company granted Mr. Sillerman immediately
exercisable options in respect of 175,000 shares of Class A Common Stock and
150,000 shares of Class A Common Stock in December 1996 and April 1997,
respectively, most of which were granted from stockholder-approved employee
benefit plans. The options were granted at the fair market value of a share of
Class A Common Stock on the date of the grant. In addition, options in respect
of 10,386 shares of Class A Common Stock previously granted to Mr. Sillerman
vested through June 7, 1997.
