Item 5. Other Events.
On May 30, 1997, MobileMedia Corporation (the
"Company"), MobileMedia Communications, Inc. ("MobileMedia
Communications") and all of the subsidiaries of MobileMedia
Communications filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the
District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") their monthly
operating report for the month ended April 30, 1997, which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
On June 3, 1997, the Company issued the press
release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2. The press release states
that the Company has determined to delist its Class A common stock,
par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), currently traded on
the Nasdaq National Market. The last trading day for the Common Stock
on the Nasdaq National Market will be June 3, 1997.
As disclosed, the Company did not file its Report on
Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 1996 or its Report
on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 1997 by their
respective due dates of March 31, 1997 and May 15, 1997. The Company
had anticipated filing the Report on Form 10-K by May 31, 1997 and
the Report on Form 10-Q by June 30, 1997. In March 1995, the
Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of"
("SFAS 121"), which is effective for financial statements for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 1995. Under certain circumstances,
SFAS 121 requires companies to write down the carrying value of
long-lived assets recorded in their financial statements to the fair
value of such assets. A significant amount of the assets of the
Company, which were acquired in acquisitions of businesses, including
the DialPage and MobileComm acquisitions, were recorded on the
Company's financial statements in accordance with principles of
purchase accounting at the acquisition prices and constitute long-lived
assets. The Company has determined, and its independent auditors have
concurred, that SFAS 121 is applicable to the Company, and therefore
the Company may be required to write down the carrying value of its
long-lived assets to their fair value. The Company believes that the
amount of the write-down could be material; however, it is not possible
at this time to determine its amount. Since the Company cannot comply
with SFAS 121 at this time, it is unable to issue audited financial
statements in compliance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Consequently, the Company will not file its Report on Form 10-K or
its other periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended. Accordingly, the Company is unable to comply with
the continued listing requirements of the Nasdaq National Market and
has requested that its Common Stock be delisted.
The Company will continue to file, under cover of
Form 8-K, copies of the monthly operating reports required to be
filed with the Bankruptcy Court within 15 days after filing such
reports with the Bankruptcy Court.
Item 6. Resignations of Registrants Directors.

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
1. The audit of the Financial Statements of the Debtors for the year ended
December 31, 1996 has not been completed. Therefore, in addition to the
adjustments reflected in the Financial Statements, the Financial Statements
included in this Monthly Operating Report do not reflect the effect of any
audit adjustments for the year ended December 31, 1996, which adjustments
may have a material effect on the Debtors' results of operations, financial
position and liquidity.
The Debtors believe that there will be audit adjustments to their Accounts
Receivable, Inventory, Fixed Assets and Intangible Assets. There may also
be adjustments to certain other accounts as a result of the audit and the
Debtors' filing for protection under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code
on January 30, 1997.
2. On January 30, 1997 (the "Filing Date"), MobileMedia Corporation (the
"Company"), MobileMedia Communications, Inc. ("MobileMedia Communications")
and all seventeen of MobileMedia Communication's subsidiaries filed for
protection under Chapter 11 of title 11 of the United States Code (the
"Bankruptcy Code"). The Debtors are operating as debtors-in-possession
("DIP") and are subject to the jurisdiction of the United States Bankruptcy
Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court").
The Court has authorized the debtors to pay certain pre-petition creditors.
These permitted pre-petition payments include (i) employee salary and
wages; (ii) certain employee benefits and travel expenses; (iii) certain
amounts owing to essential vendors; (iv) trust fund type sales and use
taxes; (v) trust fund payroll taxes; (vi) customer refunds; and (vii)
customer rewards.
3. Since the Filing Date, the Debtors have continued to manage their business
as debtors-in-possession under sections 1107 and 1108 of the Bankruptcy
Code. During the pendency of the Chapter 11 cases, the Bankruptcy Court
has jurisdiction over the assets and affairs of the Debtors, and their
continued operations are subject to the Bankruptcy Court's protection and
supervision. The Debtors have sought, obtained, and are in the process of
applying for, various orders from the Bankruptcy Court intended to
stabilize their business and minimize any disruption caused by the Chapter
11 cases.

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED):
4. The Consolidated Statement of Operations includes for the month ending
March 31, 1997: (a) an adjustment of approximately $10.1 million to
decrease Service, Rents and Maintenance revenue for the first quarter of
1997, $6.7 million of which relates to January and February 1997. Such
adjustment reflects the recording of a reserve for potential disparities
between recorded revenues and collections. Accordingly, results for the
month of March 1997 are not indicative of the Debtors' underlying
performance during that month; and (b) an adjustment of approximately $1.0
million to decrease Cost of Products Sold during the first quarter of 1997.
Such adjustment is offset by a reduction in an Inventory reserve
established as of December 31, 1996. See Headnotes 1 and 2 to Consolidated
Balance Sheet.
5. The Consolidated Balance Sheet includes the following adjustments: (a) an
approximate $1.0 million reduction in an Inventory reserve established at
December 31, 1996; (b) adjustments to Inventory and Accumulated Deficit-
Pre-Petition as previously reported at February 28, 1997, consisting of
(i) an adjustment of approximately $3.2 million to decrease Inventory,
reflecting the establishment of a lower of cost or market reserve at
December 31, 1996, and (ii) a corresponding increase in Accumulated
Deficit-Pre-Petition; (c) adjustments to previously reported Property and
Equipment, Net and Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities at
February 28, 1997, consisting of (i) an adjustment of approximately
$3.6 million to decrease Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities,
reflecting a review of accounts payable and the elimination of certain
duplicative entries at December 31, 1996, and (ii) a corresponding
reduction in Property and Equipment, Net; and (d) the February 28,
1997 Balance Sheet has been restated to reflect the reclassification of the
Chase Credit Facility and Deferred Tax Liability. See Headnotes 1 and 2 to
the Consolidated Statement of Operations.
6. During the month of February 1997, the Debtors drew down $45 million of
their DIP facility with The Chase Manhattan Bank, as agent for the lenders
thereunder (the "DIP Lenders"). During the months of March and April 1997,
the Debtors repaid $25 million and $5 million, respectively, of borrowing
under the DIP facility.
7. The Company is the second largest paging company in the U.S., with
approximately 4.2 million units in service at April 30, 1997, and offers
local, regional and national paging services to its subscribers. The
consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and
its wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company's business is conducted
primarily through the Company's principal operating subsidiary, MobileMedia
Communications, Inc. ("MobileMedia Communications") and its subsidiaries.
The Company markets its services under the "MobileComm" brand name. All
significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED):
8. As previously announced in its September 27, 1996 and October 21, 1996
releases, the Company discovered misrepresentations and other violations
which occurred during the licensing process for as many as 400 to 500, or
approximately 6% to 7%, of its approximately 8,000 local transmission
one-way paging stations. The Company caused an investigation to be
conducted by its outside counsel, and a comprehensive report regarding
these matters was provided to the Federal Communications Commission (the
"FCC") in the fall of 1996. In cooperation with the FCC, outside counsel's
investigation was expanded to examine all of the Company's paging licenses,
and the results of that investigation were submitted to the FCC on November
8, 1996. As part of the cooperative process, the Company also proposed to
the FCC that a Consent Order be entered which would result, among other
things, in the return of certain local paging authorizations then held by
the Company, the dismissal of certain pending applications for paging
authorizations, and the voluntary acceptance of a substantial monetary
forfeiture.
On January 13, 1997, the FCC issued a Public Notice relating to the status
of certain FCC authorizations held by the Company. Pursuant to the Public
Notice, the FCC announced that it had (i) automatically terminated
approximately 185 authorizations for paging facilities that were not
constructed by the expiration date of their construction permits and
remained unconstructed, (ii) dismissed approximately 94 applications for
fill-in sites around existing paging stations (which had been filed under
the so-called "40-mile rule") as defective because they were predicated
upon unconstructed facilities and (iii) automatically terminated
approximately 99 other authorizations for paging facilities that were
constructed after the expiration date of their construction permits. With
respect to the approximately 99 authorizations where the underlying station
was untimely constructed, the FCC granted the Company interim operating
authority subject to further action by the FCC.
On April 8, 1997, the FCC adopted an order commencing an administrative
hearing into the qualification of the Company to remain a licensee. The
order directs an Administrative Law Judge to take evidence and develop a
full factual record on issues concerning the Company's filing of false
forms and applications. The Company may continue to operate their licensed
facilities and provide service to the public during the pendency of the
hearing. The FCC's order initiates a fact-finding and evaluative hearing
process to gather information with which to make a decision, but is not a
final disposition of the Company's the FCC's action. An adverse outcome of
this proceeding could result in the loss of the Company's licenses or
substantial monetary fines, or both. Any such outcome would have a
material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition and results of
operations.
Page 9 of 17
<PAGE>
FOOTNOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED):
On April 23, 1997, the Company filed a motion with the FCC seeking a stay
of the hearing proceeding instituted by the FCC order entered April 7,
1997. The motion discusses the consequences either of a grant or a denial
of the motion to the Company and its debt and equity holders. The Company
filed a Current Report on Form 8-K with the SEC that includes a copy of the
motion. On May 2, 1997 the Administrative Law Judge denied the Company's
motion to stay the hearing. The Company is seeking an appeal of the
Administrative Law Judge's decision.
The Company cannot be certain what monetary forfeitures or other further
actions the FCC may take in regard to this matter or the timing of any such
actions, but such actions could have a material adverse effect upon the
financial condition or operations of the Company.

Press Release
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
For: MobileMedia Corporation
Media Contact: Krista Grossman - 714/708-9302
[Logo] MobileMedia
MOBILEMEDIA TO DELIST COMMON STOCK FROM NASDAQ
LAST TRADING DAY JUNE 3, 1997
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
RIDGEFIELD PARK, NEW JERSEY, JUNE 3, 1997 -- MOBILEMEDIA CORPORATION (NASDAQ:
MBLQE) announced today that it has determined to delist its Class A common
stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Common Stock"), which is currently
traded on the Nasdaq National Market. The last trading day for the Common
Stock on the Nasdaq National Market wil be June 3, 1997. The Company has
concurrently filed a Current Report on Form 8-K containing this press release
and certain other information.
In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of
Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of" ("SFAS 121"),
which is effective for financial statements for fiscal years beginning after
December 15, 1995. Under certain circumstances, SFAS 121 requires companies to
write down the carrying value of long-lived assets recorded in their financial
statements to the fair value of such assets. A significant amount of the assets
of the Company, which were acquired in acquisitions of businesses, including the
DialPage and MobileComm acquisitions, were recorded on the Company's financial
statements in accordance with principles of purchase accounting at the
acquisition prices and constitute long-lived assets. The Company has
determined, and its independent auditors have concurred, that SFAS 121 is
applicable to the Company, and therefore the Company may be required to write
down the carrying value of its long-lived assets to their fair value. The
Company believes that the amount of the write-down could be material; however,
it is not possible at this time to determine its amount. Since the Company
cannot comply with SFAS 121 at this time, it is unable to issue audited
financial statements in compliance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Consequently, the Company will not file its Report on Form 10-K or
its other periodic reports under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended. Accordingly, the Company is unable to comply with the continued
listing requirements of the Nasdaq National Market and has requested that its
Common Stock be delisted.
MobileMedia is the second largest provider of paging and personal
communications services in the United States, offering local, regional and
nationwide coverage to approximately 4.4 million subscribers in all 50 states,
Canada and the Caribbean. The Company operates two one-way nationwide networks
and is licensed to operate two nationwide narrowband PCS networks.
