1.    Payroll tax filings and payments are made by Automated Data Processing,
      Inc. (an outside payroll processing company). Evidence of tax payments are
      available upon request. Previously, the Debtors filed copies of such
      evidence for the third quarter of 1996 with the US Trustee.

      Please see the Status of Post Petition Taxes attached hereto for the
      month's activity.



2.    The Debtors have 49 bank accounts. In order to minimize costs to the
      estate, the Debtors have included a GAAP basis Statement of Cash Flows in
      the Monthly Operating Report. The Statement of Cash Flows replaces the
      listing of cash receipts and disbursements, copies of the bank statements,
      and bank account reconciliations.

HEADNOTES:

These financial statements are unaudited and accordingly, there could be year
end audit adjustments and other adjustments as a result of the Debtors' filing
for protection under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code on January 30, 1997.

(1) Since the filing of the Monthly Operating Reports for the month ended June
30, 1998, the Debtors recorded an adjustment to reduce previously reported
Amortization Expense as a result of a write-down of the Debtors' intangible
assets, effective December 31, 1996, based upon the Debtors' determination that
an impairment of long-lived assets existed pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets
and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of". In 1997, the Debtors determined
that an impairment likely existed with respect to their long-lived assets as of
December 31, 1996. In July 1998, in conjunction with the completion of their
1996 and 1997 year end audits, the Debtors determined that intangible assets
with a net book value of approximately $1.1 billion were impaired and wrote them
down by approximately $792.5 million to their estimated fair value of
approximately $307.5 million. Fair value was determined through the application
of generally accepted valuation methods to the Debtors' projected cash flows.

(2) General & Administrative expense in August 1998 includes the reversal of a
$0.5 million accrual of telephone expenses recorded in prior months.

      impaired and wrote them down by approximately $792.5 million to their
      estimated fair value of approximately $307.5 million. Fair value was
      determined through the application of generally accepted valuation methods
      to the Debtors' projected cash flows.

Footnotes to the Financial Statements:

1.    These financial statements are unaudited and accordingly, there could be
      year end audit adjustments and other adjustments as a result of 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 Communications'
      subsidiaries (collectively with the Company and MobileMedia
      Communications, the "Debtors"), 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 and are subject to the jurisdiction
      of the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the
      "Bankruptcy Court").

      The Bankruptcy 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) property
      taxes; (vii) customer refunds; and (viii) customer rewards.

      On August 20, 1998, Arch Communications Group, Inc. ("Arch") and the
      Debtors announced a definitive merger agreement for Arch to acquire the
      Debtors. Under the terms of the agreement, Arch will acquire the Debtors
      for a combination of cash, the assumption of certain liabilities, and the
      issuance of Arch common stock and warrants to acquire Arch common stock.
      The transaction will be implemented through a plan of reorganization that
      the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court on August 20, 1998 ("the
      Amended Plan"). A Disclosure Statement related to the Amended Plan was
      filed with the Bankruptcy Court on August 25, 1998. A hearing concerning
      the adequacy of information contained in the Disclosure Statement is
      scheduled for October 14, 1998.

      On September 3, 1998, the Company completed the sale of 166 transmission
      towers to Pinnacle Towers, Inc. ("Pinnacle") for $170 million in cash.
      Subsequent to the sale, the Company distributed the $170 million in
      proceeds to its secured creditors, who have a lien on such assets. Under
      the terms of a lease with Pinnacle, the Company will continue to own and
      utilize transmitters, antennas and other equipment located on the 166
      towers for an initial lease period of 15 years at an aggregate annual
      rental of $10.7 million.

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 and reorganize their business and minimize any disruption caused
      by the Chapter 11 cases.

4.    Since the filing of the Operating Reports for the month ended June 30,
      1998, the Debtors recorded adjustments to previously reported Amortization
      Expense, Intangible Assets, Net, Deferred Tax Liability, Accumulated
      Deficit-Pre Petition and Accumulated Deficit-Post Petition as a result of
      a write-down of the Debtors' intangible assets, effective December 31,
      1996, based upon the Debtors' determination of the level of impairment of
      long-lived assets, pursuant to Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
      No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets and for
      Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of".

      In 1997, the Debtors determined that an impairment likely existed with
      respect to their long-lived assets as of December 31, 1996. In July 1998,
      in conjunction with the completion of their 1996 and 1997 year end audits,
      the Debtors determined that intangible assets with a net book value of
      approximately $1.1 billion were impaired and wrote them down by
      approximately $792.5 million to their estimated fair value of $307.5
      million. Fair value was determined through the application of generally
      accepted valuation methods to the Debtors' projected cash flows.

5.    General & Administrative expense in August 1998 includes the reversal of
      a $0.5 million accrual of telephone expenses recorded in prior months.

6.    The Company is one of the largest paging companies in the U.S., with
      approximately 3.2 million units in service at August 31, 1998, 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, and its subsidiaries. The Company markets its
      services primarily under the "MobileComm" brand name. All significant
      intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated.

7.    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 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 directed an Administrative Law Judge to take evidence and develop a
      full factual record on directed issues concerning the Company's filing of
      false forms and applications. The Company was permitted to operate its
      licensed facilities and provide service to the public during the pendency
      of the hearing.

      On June 6, 1997, the FCC issued an order staying the hearing proceeding in
      order to allow the Company to develop and consummate a plan of
      reorganization that provides for a change of control of the Company and a
      permissible transfer of the Company's FCC licenses. The order was
      originally granted for ten months and was extended by the FCC through
      October 6, 1998. The order, which is based on an FCC doctrine known as
      Second Thursday, provides that if there is a change of control that meets
      the conditions of Second Thursday, the Company's FCC issues will be
      resolved by the transfer of the Company's FCC licenses to the new owners
      of the Company and the hearing will not proceed. The Company believes that
      a reorganization plan that provides for either a conversion of certain
      existing debt to equity, in which case existing MobileMedia shares will be
      substantially diluted or eliminated,

Footnotes to the Financial Statements (continued):

      or a sale of the Company, as reflected in the Amended Plan, will result in
      a change of control. In the event that the Company were unable to
      consummate the Amended Plan or any other plan of reorganization that
      satisfies the conditions of Second Thursday, the Company would be required
      to proceed with the hearing, which, if adversely determined, could result
      in the loss of the Company's licenses or substantial monetary fines, or
      both. Such an outcome would have a material adverse effect on the
      Company's financial condition and results of operations.

HEADNOTES:

These financial statements are unaudited and accordingly, there could be year
end audit adjustments and other adjustments as a result of the Debtors' filing
for protection under Chapter 11 of the US Bankruptcy Code on January 30, 1997.

(1) Since the filing of the Monthly Operating Reports for the month ended June
30, 1998, the Debtors recorded an adjustment to reduce previously reported
Amortization Expense as a result of a write-down of the Debtors' intangible
assets, effective December 31, 1996, based upon the Debtors' determination that
an impairment of long-lived assets existed pursuant to Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 121 "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-lived Assets
and for Long-lived Assets to be Disposed of". In 1997, the Debtors determined
that an impairment likely existed with respect to their long-lived assets as of
December 31, 1996. In July 1998, in conjunction with the completion of their
1996 and 1997 year end audits, the Debtors determined that intangible assets
with a net book value of approximately $1.1 billion were impaired and wrote them
down by approximately $792.5 million to their estimated fair value of
approximately $307.5 million. Fair value was determined through the application
of generally accepted valuation methods to the Debtors' projected cash flows.
