OUR COMPANY

INTRODUCTION

Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. was founded in 1983 and is the second
largest Spanish-language radio broadcasting company in the United States. We own
and operate 13 FM radio stations. Eleven of our stations are located in six of
the largest Hispanic markets in the United States, including Los Angeles, Puerto
Rico, New York, Miami, Chicago and San Antonio. Our radio stations reach over
51% of the U.S. Hispanic population. Our WSKQ-FM station in New York is ranked
in the Spring 1999 Arbitron ratings as the number one station in its target
demographic group (men and women, ages 25-54).

Our strategy is to maximize the profitability of our radio station
portfolio and to expand in our existing markets and into additional markets that
have a significant Hispanic population. We believe that the favorable
demographics of the U.S. Hispanic population and the rapid increase in
advertising targeting Hispanics provide us with significant opportunities for
growth. We also believe that we have competitive advantages in the radio
industry due to our focus on formats targeting U.S. Hispanic audiences and our
skill in programming and marketing to these audiences.

Our Internet strategy complements our existing business and enables us to
capitalize on our U.S. Hispanic market expertise. We recently purchased 80% of
JuJu Media, Inc., the owner of LaMusica.com, a bilingual Spanish-English
Internet web site and on-line community that focuses on the U.S. Hispanic
market. LaMusica.com is a provider of original information and interactive
content related to Latin music, entertainment, news and culture. LaMusica.com
provides our advertisers with an additional means of reaching the U.S. Hispanic
consumer markets and is a growing revenue source for us.

Due to the successful implementation of our strategy, we have achieved
significant growth over the last two years. From the twelve-month period ended
June 29, 1997 to the twelve-month period ended June 27, 1999, our:

- net revenues grew at a compound annual rate of 29.3%, from $55.0 million
to $91.9 million;

- broadcast cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of 35.8%, from $26.5
million to $48.9 million; and

- EBITDA grew at a compound annual rate of 35.5%, from $21.5 million to
$39.5 million.

SBS is led by Mr. Raul Alarcon, Jr., who has been our Chief Executive
Officer and President since 1986. The Alarcon family has been involved in
Spanish-language radio broadcasting since the 1950's, when Mr. Raul Alarcon,
Sr., the Chairman of our Board of Directors, established the first radio network
in Camaguey, Cuba. Members of our senior
1
<PAGE> 8

management team, on average, have over 25 years of experience in
Spanish-language media and radio broadcasting.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

Our radio stations target the largest Hispanic markets in the United
States, including Puerto Rico. We believe that these markets have significant
growth potential for the following reasons:

- HISPANIC POPULATION GROWTH. The U.S. Hispanic population, approximately
34.3 million people, is the fastest growing segment of the U.S.
population, growing at approximately four times the rate of the
population as a whole. By 2005, Hispanics are projected to become the
largest minority group in the United States and by 2010, the second
largest Spanish-speaking population in the world.

- SIGNIFICANT GEOGRAPHIC CONCENTRATION. The U.S. Hispanic population is
highly concentrated with over 62% of U.S. Hispanics residing in the top
ten U.S. Hispanic markets. Because our stations are located in six of
these markets, advertisers can reach the U.S. Hispanic population more
cost effectively by advertising on our stations rather than advertising
through competing national media.

- ATTRACTIVE DEMOGRAPHIC GROUP FOR ADVERTISERS. The U.S. Hispanic
population accounted for estimated consumer spending of $380.0 billion in
1998 (7.4% of total U.S. consumer spending), an increase of 78.4% since
1990. By 2000, U.S. Hispanics are expected to account for estimated
consumer spending of $457.8 billion (8.2% of total U.S. consumer
spending), and by 2010 are expected to account for estimated consumer
spending of $965.3 billion (12% of total U.S. consumer spending), far
outpacing the expected growth of overall U.S. consumer spending during
the same period.

- USE OF SPANISH LANGUAGE. Approximately 69% of U.S. Hispanics speak
Spanish at home and this percentage is projected to remain relatively
constant through the year 2010. We believe that the continued use of
Spanish by U.S. Hispanics and their preference for Spanish-language music
will contribute to the continued popularity of Spanish-language radio as
a source of entertainment, information and culture for the U.S. Hispanic
population.

- INTERNET USAGE. Approximately 36% of the U.S. Hispanic population
(excluding Puerto Rico) currently accesses the Internet, a percentage
which we expect will increase over the next few years. We believe the
Internet represents a complementary medium for our advertisers to reach
our target audience.

- Audience share and audience share rank data were obtained from the Spring

- Revenue share information for all markets other than Chicago was obtained
from BIA Research and Miller Kaplan data. Revenue share information for
the Chicago market was obtained from Hungerford data.

- Population data were derived from the Strategy Research
Corporation -- 1998 U.S. Hispanic Market Report and 1990 and 1997
population reports from the Bureau of the U.S. Census.

- In Puerto Rico, we own three radio stations, WCMA-FM (formerly WDOY-FM),
WMEG-FM and WEGM-FM. WMEG-FM and WEGM-FM are simulcast, but have separate
Arbitron ratings.

- We own and operate one radio station in each of Key West and Key Largo,
WVMQ-FM and WZMQ-FM, respectively, which are simulcast but are not rated
by Arbitron. Information with respect to these stations is not included
in this table. We are seeking regulatory approvals to relocate our Key
Largo tower closer to the Miami market. See "Business -- Radio Station
Portfolio -- Miami and the Florida Keys."

BUSINESS STRATEGY

We focus on maximizing the profitability of our radio station portfolio by
strengthening the performance of our existing radio stations and making
additional strategic station acquisitions in both our existing markets and in
new markets that have a significant Hispanic population. In addition, we are
implementing an Internet strategy in order to develop new revenue sources.

OPERATING STRATEGY. Our operating strategy focuses on maximizing our radio
stations' appeal to our audience and our advertisers while minimizing operating
expenses, in order to grow revenue and cash flow. To achieve these goals, we
focus on:

- providing high-quality Spanish-language programming;

- retaining strong local management teams;
3
<PAGE> 10

- utilizing aggressive sales efforts;

- controlling operating costs;

- making effective use of promotions and special events; and

- maintaining strong community involvement.

ACQUISITION STRATEGY. Our acquisition strategy is to acquire radio
stations in the largest U.S. Hispanic markets. We consider acquisitions of
stations in our existing markets, as well as acquisitions in other markets with
a large Hispanic population where we can maximize our revenues through
aggressive sales to U.S. Hispanic and general market advertisers. These
acquisitions may include stations that do not currently target the U.S. Hispanic
market, but which we believe can be successfully reformatted.

INTERNET STRATEGY. Our Internet strategy is designed to complement our
existing business and to enable us to capitalize on our U.S. Hispanic market
expertise. The centerpiece of our strategy is LaMusica.com, an Internet web site
and on-line community focused on the U.S. Hispanic market. This web site will
offer all of our radio stations' broadcasts through the use of audio streaming
technology and will provide our advertisers with a complementary means of
reaching their target audience.

CONCURRENT CLASS A COMMON STOCK OFFERING AND FINANCING PLAN

The net proceeds we will receive from this offering and our concurrent
Class A Common Stock offering are estimated to be approximately $ million
and $ million, respectively. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale
of Class A Common Stock by the selling stockholders in the Class A Common Stock
offering. This offering is conditioned upon the completion of our Class A Common
Stock offering. The Class A Common Stock offering is not conditioned on this or
any other offering. Upon completion of both offerings, we intend to enter into a
senior credit facility arranged by Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., an affiliate of
Lehman Brothers Inc. The senior credit facility is conditioned upon the closing

facility will consist of (1) a $ million six-year revolving credit
facility, maturing in 2005, and (2) a $ million six-year delayed draw
( months to draw) term loan facility, maturing in 2005.

We intend to use the net proceeds from this offering and our concurrent
Class A Common Stock offering to redeem our preferred stock and for general
corporate purposes, including the refinancing of our existing debt. We cannot
assure you that we will complete the senior credit facility on terms that are
favorable to us, or at all. This prospectus relates only to the offering of the
notes and not to any other securities.

this offering and the concurrent Class A Common
Stock offering to redeem our preferred stock
and for general corporate purposes, including
the refinancing of our existing debt.

- - Our summary historical consolidated financial data should be read in
conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements as of and
for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended September 27,
1998, the related notes and the independent auditor's report included in this
prospectus. For additional information, see the financial section of this
prospectus and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations."

- - The financial information for the nine months ended June 27, 1999 and June 28,
1998 is unaudited, but in our opinion reflects all adjustments necessary for a
fair presentation of the financial information.

- - Operating results for the nine months ended June 27, 1999 are not necessarily
indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended
September 26, 1999. Our summary unaudited pro forma consolidated financial
information does not purport to represent what our results of operations or
financial condition would actually have been had the transactions described
below occurred on the dates indicated or to project our results of operations
or financial condition for any future period or date.

- - The pro forma amounts for the period ended June 27, 1999, in the column "Pro
Forma for Both Offerings" are adjusted to give effect to this offering, the
concurrent Class A Common Stock offering, the redemption of all of our
preferred stock, the refinancing of our existing debt, the redesignation of
our formerly outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock to shares of our
currently outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock and a -for-one stock
split of our Class B Common Stock as if each had occurred as of the beginning
of the period.

- - The pro forma balance sheet data are adjusted to give effect to the
transactions described above as if they had occurred as of June 27, 1999.

- - For the purpose of calculating the Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges,
earnings are defined as earnings or loss before income taxes and extraordinary
items and fixed charges. Fixed charges are the sum of (1) interest costs, (2)
amortization of deferred financing costs, (3) one-third of operating lease
rental expense (deemed to be interest) and (4) dividends on preferred stock.
Earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by $9,361,000, $34,514,000 and
$17,434,000 for fiscal years 1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. For the nine
months ended June 28, 1998 and June 27, 1999, earnings were inadequate to
cover fixed charges by $4,993,000 and $37,767,000.

<PAGE> 16

- - The term "EBITDA" means earnings before extraordinary items, gain on sale of
AM stations, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization
and other income or expense. We have included information concerning EBITDA in
this prospectus because it is used by some investors as a measure of a
company's ability to service its debt obligations. Although EBITDA is not a
measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, EBITDA is widely used in the broadcasting industry as a
measure of a broadcasting company's operating performance.

RISK FACTORS

You should carefully consider the following factors and other information
in this prospectus before deciding to invest in our notes.

SUBSTANTIAL DEBT -- OUR SUBSTANTIAL LEVEL OF DEBT COULD LIMIT OUR ABILITY TO
GROW AND COMPETE.

Our consolidated debt is substantial when compared to our common
stockholders' equity. As of June 27, 1999, on a pro forma basis after giving
effect to the transactions described in this prospectus, we had outstanding long
term debt (including current portions) of approximately $ million and a
stockholders' equity of $ million.

Our substantial level of debt could have several important consequences to
the holders of our securities, including the following:

- a significant portion of our cash flow from operations will be dedicated
to servicing our debt obligations and will not be available for
operations, future business opportunities or other purposes;

- our ability to obtain additional financing in the future for working
capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions, general corporate or other
purposes may be limited; and

- our substantial debt could make us more vulnerable to economic downturns,
limit our ability to withstand competitive pressures and reduce our
flexibility in responding to changing business and economic conditions.

Our ability to satisfy all of our debt obligations depends upon our future
operating performance. Our operating performance will be affected by prevailing
economic conditions and financial, business and other factors, some of which are
beyond our control. We believe that our operating cash flow will be sufficient
to meet our operating expenses and to service our debt requirements as they
become due. However, if we are unable to pay our debts, whether upon
acceleration of our debt or in the ordinary course of business, we will be
forced to pursue alternative strategies such as selling assets, restructuring or
refinancing our debt, or seeking additional equity capital. We cannot assure you
that we can successfully complete any of these strategies on satisfactory terms
or that the approval of the FCC could be obtained on a timely basis, or at all,
for the transfer of any of the stations' licenses in connection with a proposed
sale of assets.

ADDITIONAL BORROWINGS AVAILABLE -- DESPITE CURRENT INDEBTEDNESS LEVELS, WE AND
OUR SUBSIDIARIES MAY STILL BE ABLE TO INCUR SUBSTANTIALLY MORE DEBT. THIS COULD
FURTHER EXACERBATE THE RISKS DESCRIBED ABOVE.

We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional
indebtedness in the future. The terms of the indenture do not fully prohibit us
or our subsidiaries from doing so. If we enter into our senior credit facility,
it would permit additional borrowings of up to $ million after completion
of this offering and all of those borrowings would be senior to the notes and
the subsidiary guarantees. If new debt is added to our and our subsidiaries'
current debt levels, the related risks that we and they now face could
intensify.

HOLDING COMPANY -- AS A HOLDING COMPANY WE DEPEND ON OUR SUBSIDIARIES TO MEET
OUR FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS.

We are a holding company with no significant assets other than the stock of
our subsidiaries. In order to meet our financial needs, we rely exclusively on
repayments of interest and principal on intercompany loans made by us to our
operating subsidiaries and income from

11
<PAGE> 18

dividends and other cash flow from such subsidiaries. We cannot assure you that
our operating subsidiaries will generate sufficient net income to pay upstream
dividends or cash flow to make payments of interest and principal to us in
respect of our intercompany loans.

SUBORDINATION -- YOUR RIGHT TO RECEIVE PAYMENTS ON THESE NOTES IS JUNIOR TO OUR
EXISTING INDEBTEDNESS AND POSSIBLY ALL OF OUR FUTURE BORROWINGS.

The notes and the subsidiary guarantees rank behind all of our and our
subsidiary guarantors' existing indebtedness (other than trade payables) and all
of our and our subsidiary guarantors' future borrowings (other than trade
payables), except any future indebtedness that expressly provides that it ranks
equal with, or subordinated in right of payment to, the notes and the
guarantees. As a result, upon any distribution to our creditors or the creditors
of the subsidiary guarantors in a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization or
similar proceeding relating to us or the subsidiary guarantors or our or their
property, the holders of our senior debt and the debt of the subsidiary
guarantors will be entitled to be paid in full in cash before any payment may be
made with respect to the notes or the subsidiary guarantees.

In addition, all payments on the notes and the guarantees will be blocked
in the event of a payment default on senior debt and may be blocked for up to
179 days each year in the event of certain non-payment defaults on senior debt.

If a bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization or similar proceeding
relating to us or the subsidiary guarantors occurs, holders of the notes will
participate with trade creditors and all other holders of our and the subsidiary
guarantors' subordinated indebtedness in the assets remaining after we and the
subsidiary guarantors have paid all of the senior debt. In any of these cases,
we and the subsidiary guarantors may not have sufficient funds to pay all of our
creditors and holders of notes may receive less, pro rata, than the holders of
senior debt.

Our obligations under the notes are subordinate and junior in right of
payment to all of our existing and future senior debt. As of June 27, 1999, on a
pro forma basis giving effect to this offering, the concurrent Class A Common
Stock offering, the redemption of our preferred stock and the refinancing of our
existing debt, approximately $ million of our total consolidated
indebtedness would have been senior debt. The indenture allows us to borrow
substantial additional indebtedness, including senior debt, in the future.

NOT ALL SUBSIDIARIES ARE GUARANTORS -- YOUR RIGHT TO RECEIVE PAYMENT ON THESE
NOTES COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED IF ANY OF OUR NON-GUARANTOR SUBSIDIARIES
DECLARE BANKRUPTCY, LIQUIDATE OR REORGANIZE.

Our subsidiaries holding our broadcasting licenses will not guarantee the
notes. Generally, these subsidiaries are limited purpose companies that conduct
no activities other than to hold our broadcasting licenses. We do not expect
that these subsidiaries will have any significant revenues or liabilities. If
there were any creditors of these non-guarantor subsidiaries, however, in the
event of their bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization, their creditors will
generally be entitled to payment of their claims from the assets of those
subsidiaries before any assets are made available for distribution to us.

12
<PAGE> 19

RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY OUR DEBT -- THE TERMS OF OUR DEBT RESTRICT US FROM
ENGAGING IN MANY ACTIVITIES AND REQUIRE US TO SATISFY VARIOUS FINANCIAL TESTS.

The indenture governing the notes to be issued in this offering will
contain covenants that restrict, among other things, our ability to:

- incur additional debt;

- create liens;

- pay dividends, distributions or make other specified restricted payments;

- sell assets and engage in asset swaps;

- enter into transactions with affiliates;

- sell capital stock of our subsidiaries; and

- merge or consolidate with any other person or sell, assign, transfer,
lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our
assets.

If an event of default occurs under this indenture, the noteholders could
elect to declare all amounts outstanding under the indenture, together with
accrued interest, to be immediately due and payable. In addition, there is a
change of control provision in the indenture which would require us to make an
offer to repurchase all of our notes in the event that we experience a change of
control.

Similarly, if we enter into the senior credit facility it will contain
covenants that restrict, among other things, our ability to incur additional
debt, pay cash dividends, repurchase our capital stock, make capital
expenditures, make investments or other restricted payments, swap or sell
assets, engage in transactions with related parties, secure non-senior debt with
our assets, or merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of our
assets.

Our senior credit facility will require us to get our lenders' consent
before we make acquisitions involving the payment of cash or assumption of
indebtedness in excess of $ . This restriction may make it more
difficult to pursue our acquisition strategy. Our senior credit facility will
also require us to maintain specific financial ratios. Events beyond our control
could affect our ability to meet those financial ratios, and we cannot assure
you that we will meet them.

Our senior credit facility will mature in 2005 and will be (1) guaranteed
by our subsidiaries (other than those subsidiaries which own broadcast
licenses); (2) secured by all of our assets and our subsidiaries' assets other
than the assets of the broadcasting license subsidiaries; and (3) secured by the
stock of our subsidiaries, including the stock of our broadcasting license
subsidiaries. A breach of any of the covenants contained in our senior credit
facility could allow our lenders to declare all amounts outstanding under the
senior credit facility to be immediately due and payable. In addition, our
lenders could proceed against the collateral granted to them to secure that
indebtedness. If the amounts outstanding under the senior credit facility are
accelerated, we cannot assure you that our assets will be sufficient to repay in
full the money owed to the lenders or to our other debt holders.

FRAUDULENT CONVEYANCE -- FEDERAL AND STATE STATUTES ALLOW COURTS, UNDER SPECIFIC
CIRCUMSTANCES, TO VOID GUARANTEES AND REQUIRE NOTE HOLDERS TO RETURN PAYMENTS
FROM GUARANTORS.

Any of our creditors may file a lawsuit objecting to our obligations under
the notes or the use of the proceeds from the notes. A court could void our
obligations under the notes,

13
<PAGE> 20

subordinate the notes to our other debt or order the holders to return any
amounts paid for the notes to us or to a fund benefitting the creditors if the
court finds we intended to defraud a creditor, or did not receive fair value for
the notes, and we either:

- were insolvent or became insolvent by offering the notes;

- did not have enough capital to engage in our business; or

- intended to or believed that we overextended our debt obligations.

Creditors of the subsidiary guarantors may also object to the subsidiary
guarantors' guarantees of the notes. In such circumstances, a court could order
the relief outlined above for the same reasons outlined above. In addition, the
creditors of the subsidiary guarantors could claim that since the guarantees
were made for our benefit, the subsidiary guarantors did not receive fair value
for the guarantees.

The measure of insolvency for fraudulent transfer laws will vary in
different jurisdictions. We believe that at the time we incur the debt
constituting the notes and the subsidiary guarantees, we and the subsidiary
guarantors will neither be insolvent nor be rendered insolvent as a result. We
cannot assure you, however, that a court passing on the same questions would
reach the same conclusions.

CHANGE OF CONTROL -- WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO PURCHASE YOUR NOTES UPON A CHANGE OF
CONTROL.

Upon the occurrence of specified change of control events, we are required
to offer to purchase each holder's notes at a price of 101% of their principal
amount plus accrued interest. We may not have sufficient financial resources to
purchase all of the notes that holders may tender to us upon a change of
control. The occurrence of a change of control would also constitute an event of
default under our senior credit facility. In certain circumstances, our lenders
also have the right to prohibit any purchases by us of the notes, in which event
we would be in default on the notes.

TRANSFERABILITY -- THERE IS NO PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE NOTES

The notes are a new issue of securities for which there is currently no
trading market. The underwriters have advised us that they currently intend to
make a market in the notes following completion of this offering, but they have
no obligation to do so and may discontinue such activity at any time without
notice. We cannot be sure that an active trading market will develop for the
notes. Moreover, if a market were to exist, the notes could trade at prices that
may be lower than their initial offering price because of many factors,
including, but not limited to:

- prevailing interest rates on the markets for similar securities;

- general economic conditions;

- the prospects for other companies in the same industry; and

- our financial condition, performance or prospects.

HISTORY OF NET LOSSES -- WE HAVE EXPERIENCED NET LOSSES IN THE PAST AND TO THE
EXTENT THAT WE EXPERIENCE LOSSES IN THE FUTURE, OUR ABILITY TO RAISE CAPITAL AND
THE MARKET PRICES OF OUR SECURITIES, INCLUDING THE NOTES TO BE ISSUED IN THIS
OFFERING AND THE CLASS A COMMON STOCK TO BE ISSUED IN THE CLASS A COMMON STOCK
OFFERING, COULD BE ADVERSELY AFFECTED.

We have experienced net losses in fiscal years 1996 and 1997. The primary
reasons for these losses are interest expense and significant charges for
depreciation and amortization related to the

14
<PAGE> 21

acquisition of radio stations and refinancing costs. If we acquire additional
stations, these charges will probably increase. On a pro forma basis after
giving effect to this offering and the concurrent Class A Common Stock offering,
as if they had occurred on September 27, 1998, we had a net loss of $
million for the nine month period ended June 27, 1999.

We cannot assure you that we will achieve or sustain profitability. Failure
to achieve profitability may adversely affect the market price of our common
stock, which in turn may adversely affect our ability to raise additional equity
capital and to incur additional debt.

IMPORTANCE OF THE NEW YORK, LOS ANGELES AND MIAMI MARKETS -- A LARGE PORTION OF
OUR NET BROADCAST REVENUE AND BROADCAST CASH FLOW COMES FROM THESE MARKETS.

Based upon the stations we owned and operated as of June 27, 1999, our
radio stations in New York, Los Angeles and Miami collectively accounted for
85.1% of our net broadcast revenue and for 88.6% of our broadcast cash flow for
the nine-month period ended June 27, 1999. A significant decline in net
broadcast revenue or broadcast cash flow from our stations in any of these
markets could have a material adverse effect on our financial position and
results of operations.

DEPENDENCE ON KEY PERSONNEL -- LOSS OF KEY PERSONNEL COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT OUR
BUSINESS.

Our business depends upon the efforts, abilities and expertise of our
executive officers and other key employees, including Raul Alarcon, Jr., our
Chief Executive Officer and President. The loss of any of these officers and key
employees could have a material adverse effect on our business. We do not
maintain key man life insurance on any of our personnel.

COMPETITION -- WE COMPETE FOR ADVERTISING REVENUE WITH OTHER RADIO GROUPS AS
WELL AS TELEVISION AND OTHER MEDIA, MANY OPERATORS OF WHICH HAVE GREATER
RESOURCES THAN WE DO.

Broadcasting is a highly competitive business. Our radio stations compete
in their respective markets for audiences and advertising revenues with other
radio stations of all formats, as well as with other media, such as newspapers,
magazines, television, cable television, outdoor advertising, the Internet and
direct mail. As a result of this competition, our stations' audience ratings and
market shares may decline and any adverse change in a particular market could
have a material adverse effect on the revenue of our stations located in that
market.

Although we believe that each of our stations is able to compete
effectively in its respective market, we cannot assure you that any station will
be able to maintain or increase its current audience ratings and advertising
revenues. Radio stations can change formats quickly. Any other radio station
currently broadcasting could shift its format to duplicate the format of any of
our stations. If a station converts its programming to a format similar to that
of one of our stations, or if one of our competitors strengthens its operations,
the ratings and broadcast cash flow of our station in that market could be
adversely affected. In addition, other radio companies which are larger and have
more resources may also enter markets in which we operate.

TECHNOLOGY CHANGES, NEW SERVICES AND EVOLVING STANDARDS -- WE MUST BE ABLE TO
RESPOND TO RAPIDLY CHANGING TECHNOLOGY, SERVICES AND STANDARDS WHICH
CHARACTERIZE OUR INDUSTRY IN ORDER TO REMAIN COMPETITIVE.

The FCC is considering ways to introduce new technologies to the radio
broadcast industry, including satellite and terrestrial delivery of digital
audio broadcasting, and the standardization of available technologies which
significantly enhance the sound quality of AM and FM broadcasts. We cannot
predict the effect new technology of this nature will have on our financial
condition

15
<PAGE> 22

and the results of our operations. Several new media technologies are being
developed, including the following:

- cable television operators have introduced a service commonly referred to
as "cable radio" which provides cable television subscribers with several
high-quality channels of music, news and other information;

- the Internet is poised to offer new and diverse forms of program
distribution;

- direct satellite broadcast television companies are supplying subscribers
with several high quality music channels;

- the introduction of satellite digital audio radio technology could result
in new satellite radio services with sound quality equivalent to that of
compact discs; and

- the introduction of in-band on-channel digital radio could provide
multi-channel, multi-format digital radio services in the same bandwidth
currently occupied by traditional AM and FM radio services.

GOVERNMENT REGULATION -- OUR BUSINESS DEPENDS ON MAINTAINING OUR FCC LICENSES.
WE CANNOT ASSURE YOU THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO MAINTAIN THESE LICENSES.

The domestic broadcasting industry is subject to extensive federal
regulation which, among other things, requires approval by the FCC for the
issuance, renewal, transfer and assignment of broadcasting station operating
licenses and limits the number of broadcasting properties we may acquire.
Federal regulations create significant new opportunities for broadcasting
companies but also create uncertainties as to how these regulations will be
interpreted and enforced by the courts.

Our success depends in part on acquiring and maintaining broadcast licenses
issued by the FCC, which are typically issued for a maximum term of eight years
and are subject to renewal. While we believe that the FCC will approve
applications for renewal of our existing broadcasting licenses when made, we
cannot guarantee that pending or future renewal applications submitted by us
will be approved, or that renewals will not include conditions or qualifications
that could adversely affect our operations. Although we may apply to renew our
FCC licenses, interested third parties may challenge our renewal applications.
In addition, if we or any of our stockholders, officers, or directors violate
the FCC's rules and regulations or the Communications Act of 1934, or are
convicted of a felony, the FCC may commence a proceeding to impose sanctions
upon us. Examples of possible sanctions include the imposition of fines; the
revocation of our broadcast licenses; or the renewal of one or more of our
broadcasting licenses for a term of fewer than eight years. If the FCC were to
issue an order denying a license renewal application or revoking a license, we
would be required to cease operating the radio station covered by the license
only after we had exhausted administrative and judicial review without success.

The radio broadcasting industry is subject to extensive and changing
federal regulation. Among other things, the Communications Act and FCC rules and
policies limit the number of broadcasting properties that any person or entity
may own (directly or by attribution) in any market and require FCC approval for
transfers of control and assignments. The filing of petitions or complaints
against SBS or any FCC licensee from which we acquire a station could result in
the FCC delaying the grant of, or refusing to grant or imposing conditions on
its consent to the assignment or transfer of licenses. The Communications Act
and FCC rules also impose limitations on non-U.S. ownership and voting of the
capital stock of SBS.

16
<PAGE> 23

Moreover, governmental regulations and policies may change over time and we
cannot assure you that those changes would not have a material adverse impact
upon our business, financial position or results of operations. In addition, the
loss of any of our existing Los Angeles or New York stations' broadcasting
licenses, is an event of default under the indenture that governs our 12 1/2%
notes, and could cause an acceleration of amounts due under those notes prior to
maturity.

ANTITRUST MATTERS -- WE MAY FACE REGULATORY REVIEW FOR ADDITIONAL ACQUISITIONS
IN OUR EXISTING MARKETS AND, POTENTIALLY, NEW MARKETS.

An important part of our growth strategy is the acquisition of additional
radio stations. After the passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the
U.S. Department of Justice has become more aggressive in reviewing proposed
acquisitions of radio stations and radio station networks. The Justice
Department is particularly concerned when the proposed buyer already owns one or
more radio stations in the market of the station it is seeking to buy. Recently,
the Justice Department has challenged a number of radio broadcasting
transactions. Some of those challenges ultimately resulted in consent decrees
requiring, among other things, divestitures of certain stations. In general, the
Justice Department has more closely scrutinized radio broadcasting acquisitions
that result in market shares in excess of 40% of local radio advertising
revenue. Similarly, the FCC has announced new procedures to review proposed
radio broadcasting transactions even if the proposed acquisition otherwise
complies with the FCC's ownership limitations. In particular, the FCC may invite
public comment on proposed radio transactions that the FCC believes, based on
its initial analysis, may present ownership concentration concerns in a
particular local radio market.

RECESSION OR DOWNTURN IN THE ECONOMY -- NATIONAL OR REGIONAL RECESSIONS COULD
IMPAIR OUR REVENUES.

Our broadcasting revenues could be adversely affected by a recession or
downturn in the United States economy since advertising expenditures generally
decrease as the economy slows down. In addition, our operating results in
individual geographic markets could be adversely affected by local or regional
economic downturns. Our broadcasting revenues have been materially adversely
affected by past recessions. Future economic downturns might have a material
adverse effect on our ability to generate advertising revenue and might
materially and adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

YEAR 2000 -- COMPUTER PROGRAMS AND MICROPROCESSORS THAT HAVE DATE SENSITIVE
SOFTWARE MAY RECOGNIZE A DATE USING "00" AS YEAR 1900 RATHER THAN 2000, OR NOT
RECOGNIZE THE DATE AT ALL, WHICH COULD RESULT IN MAJOR SYSTEM FAILURES OR
MISCALCULATIONS.

We rely, directly and indirectly, on information technology systems to
operate our radio stations, provide our radio stations with up-to-date news and
perform a variety of administrative services, including accounting, financial
reporting, advertiser spot scheduling, payroll and invoicing. We also use
non-information technology systems, such as microchips, for dating and other
automated functions. We are in the process of assessing and remediating
potential risks to our business related to the year 2000 problem. Although we
believe that, as a result of these efforts, our critical systems are or will be
substantially year 2000 compliant, we cannot assure you that this will be the
case. One of our greatest potential year 2000 risks may be that third parties
with whom we deal will fail to be year 2000 compliant. For example, if our
programming suppliers or key advertisers experience significant disruptions in
their businesses because of the year 2000 problem, we may lose access to
programming and significant advertising revenue. We are in the process of
developing a contingency plan to address any possible failures by us or our
vendors related to year 2000 compliance.

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds we will receive from this offering and the concurrent
Class A Common Stock offering are estimated to be approximately $ million
and $ million, respectively. We will not receive any proceeds from the
shares of Class A Common Stock being sold by the selling stockholders in the
Class A Common Stock offering. This offering is conditioned upon the completion
of the Class A Common stock offering. The Class A Common Stock offering is not
conditioned upon this or any other offering. We intend to use the net proceeds
of this offering and the concurrent Class A Common Stock offering to redeem our
preferred stock and for general corporate purposes, including the refinancing of
our existing debt. The following table presents the sources and uses of proceeds
pro forma for this offering and the Class A Common Stock offering.

</TABLE>

For the purpose of calculating the Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges,
earnings are defined as earnings or loss before income taxes and extraordinary
items and fixed charges. Fixed charges are the sum of (1) interest costs, (2)
amortization of deferred financing costs, (3) one-third of operating lease
rental expense (deemed to be interest) and (4) dividends on preferred stock.
Earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by $5,774,000, $9,361,000,
$34,514,000 and $17,434,000 for fiscal years 1994, 1996, 1997 and 1998,
respectively. For the nine months ended June 27, 1999, earnings were inadequate
to cover fixed charges by $37,767,000.

NOTES TO SELECTED HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

(1) Station operating expenses include engineering, programming, selling and
general and administrative expenses.

(2) Interest expense includes non-cash interest, such as the accretion of
principal, the amortization of discounts on debt and the amortization of
deferred financing costs.

(3) During the 1996 and 1997 fiscal years, we wrote down the value of our land
and building located on Sunset Boulevard in Los Angeles by $697,741 and
$487,973, respectively. For the nine months ended June 27, 1999, we wrote
down the value of this land and building by $451,048. The write-downs were
based on current market values of real estate in the Los Angeles area.
Financing costs are also included in other income (expenses).

(4) On June 29, 1994, we sold 107,059 units, each consisting of $1,000 principal
amount of our 12 1/2% notes and warrants to purchase one share of common
stock per unit. The 12 1/2% notes were issued at a substantial discount from
their principal amount. The sale of the 12 1/2% notes and warrants generated
gross proceeds of $94,000,000 and proceeds to us of $87,774,002, net of
financing costs of $6,225,998. Of the $94,000,000 of gross proceeds from the
sale of the 12 1/2% notes and warrants, $88,603,000 was allocated to the
12 1/2% notes and $5,397,000 was determined to be the value of the warrants.
Of the net proceeds from the sale of the 12 1/2% notes and the warrants,
$83,000,000 was used to satisfy in full our obligations to our two former
principal lenders and the balance was used to settle litigation with a
former stockholder and for general corporate purposes. We realized a gain of
$70,254,772 in connection with our repayment of all obligations to our two
former principal lenders because we were able to satisfy in full these
obligations at substantial discounts to their face amounts in accordance
with restructuring agreements between us and the lenders.

For the fiscal year ended September 28, 1997, we recorded an extraordinary
loss resulting from the redemption of our 12 1/4% senior secured notes due
2001 at par which was approximately $1.5 million in excess of their carrying
value and from the write-off of the related unamortized deferred financing
costs of approximately $1.3 million, net of the related tax benefit of
approximately $1.1 million.

For the fiscal year ended September 27, 1998, we recorded an extraordinary
loss resulting from the repurchase of $13.2 million par value of 12 1/2%
notes, at a premium of approximately $2.2 million in excess of their
carrying value and from the write-off of the related unamortized deferred
financing costs of approximately $0.5 million, net of the related tax
benefit of approximately $1.1 million.

(5) The term "broadcast cash flow" means operating income before depreciation,
amortization and corporate expenses. Broadcast cash flow should not be
considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, net income or cash
flow and other consolidated income or cash flow statement data or as a
measure of our profitability or liquidity. Although broadcast cash flow

22
<PAGE> 29
is not a measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, broadcast cash flow is widely used in the
broadcasting industry as a measure of a broadcasting company's operating
performance.

(6) The term "EBITDA" means earnings before extraordinary items, gain on sale of
AM stations, net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation, amortization
and other income or expense. We have included information concerning EBITDA
in this prospectus because it is used by some investors as a measure of a
company's ability to service its debt obligations. Although EBITDA is not a
measure of performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, EBITDA is widely used in the broadcasting industry as
a measure of a broadcasting company's operating performance.

(7) The term "after-tax cash flow" means income before income tax benefit
(expense) and extraordinary items, minus net gain on sale of AM stations
(net of tax) and the current income tax provision, plus depreciation and
amortization expense. Although after-tax cash flow is not a measure of
performance calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, after-tax cash flow is widely used in the broadcasting industry
as a measure of a broadcasting company's operating performance.

(8) For the purpose of calculating the Ratio of Earnings to Fixed Charges,
earnings are defined as earnings or loss before income taxes and
extraordinary items and fixed charges. Fixed charges are the sum of (1)
interest costs, (2) amortization of deferred financing costs, (3) one-third
of operating lease rental expense (deemed to be interest) and (4) dividends
on preferred stock. Earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by
$5,774,000, $9,361,000, $34,514,000 and $17,434,000 for fiscal years 1994,
1996, 1997 and 1998, respectively. For the nine months ended June 28, 1998
and June 27, 1999, earnings were inadequate to cover fixed charges by
$4,993,000 and $37,767,000, respectively.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following information should be read in conjunction with "Selected
Historical Consolidated Financial Information" and the Financial Statements and
the related notes included elsewhere in this prospectus.

BACKGROUND

We commenced operations with the purchase of our first radio station,
WXLX-AM (formerly WSKQ-AM) serving the New York metropolitan area in 1983. Since
1983 we have purchased 15 stations, including two additional AM stations in six
U.S. markets. Today, we are the second largest Spanish-language radio
broadcasting company in the United States, owning and operating a total of 13 FM
radio stations. Eleven of our stations are located in six of the largest
Hispanic markets in the United States, including Los Angeles, Puerto Rico, New
York, Miami, Chicago and San Antonio. In total, our radio stations reach over
51% of the U.S. Hispanic population.

Our financial results depend on a number of factors, including the strength
of the national economy and the local economies served by our stations, total
advertising dollars dedicated to the markets served by our stations, advertising
dollars targeted to the Hispanic consumers in the markets served by our
stations, our stations' audience ratings, our ability to provide popular
programming, local market competition from other radio stations and other
advertising media, and government regulations and policies.

We report our revenues and expenses on a broadcast month basis. "Broadcast
month basis" means a four or five week period ending on the last Sunday of each
calendar month. For the nine months ended June 27, 1999, and the nine months
ended June 28, 1998, we reported 39 weeks of revenues and expenses. For fiscal
year 1996, we reported 53 weeks of revenues and expenses compared to 52 weeks
for each of fiscal year 1997 and 1998.

As is true of other radio groups, our performance is customarily measured
by our ability to generate broadcast cash flow, EBITDA and after-tax cash flow.
Broadcast cash flow consists of operating income before depreciation,
amortization and corporate expenses. EBITDA consists of earnings before
extraordinary items, gain on sale of AM stations, net interest expense, income
taxes, depreciation, amortization and other income or expenses. After-tax cash
flow consists of income before income tax benefit (expense) and extraordinary
items, minus net gain on sale of AM stations (net of tax) and the current income
tax provision, plus depreciation and amortization expense. Although broadcast
cash flow, EBITDA and after-tax cash flow are not measures of performance
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, we
believe that broadcast cash flow, EBITDA and after-tax cash flow are useful in
evaluating us because these measures are accepted by the broadcasting industry
as generally recognized measures of performance and are used by securities
industry analysts who publish reports on the performance of broadcasting
companies. In addition, we have included information concerning broadcast cash
flow, EBITDA and after-tax cash flow in this prospectus because it is used by
some investors as a measure of a company's ability to service its debt
obligations and it is also the basis for determining compliance with certain
covenants contained in the indentures governing our debt securities and in the
certificate of designation governing our preferred stock. Broadcast cash flow,
EBITDA and after-tax cash flow are not intended to be substitutes for operating
income as determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles, or alternatives to cash flow from operating activities (as a measure
of liquidity) or net income.

<PAGE> 31

REVENUES

Our primary source of revenue is the sale of advertising time on our radio
stations to local and national advertisers. Our revenues are affected primarily
by the advertising rates that our radio stations are able to charge as well as
the overall demand for radio advertising time in a market. Advertising rates are
based primarily on (1) a radio station's audience share in the demographic
groups targeted by advertisers, as measured principally by periodic reports
developed by Arbitron, (2) the number of radio stations in the market competing
for the same demographic groups, and (3) the supply of and demand for radio
advertising time. Advertising rates fluctuate daily and are generally highest
during the morning and afternoon commuting hours. Seasonal net broadcasting
revenue fluctuations are common in the radio broadcasting industry and are due
primarily to fluctuations in advertising expenditures by local and national
advertisers. Our second fiscal quarter (January through March) generally
produces the lowest net broadcasting revenue for the year because of normal
post-holiday decreases in advertising expenditures.

Our advertising contracts are generally short term, usually for periods of
three months or less, and we generate most of our revenues from local
advertising. In the 1998 fiscal year, approximately $63.1 million, or 72.7% of
our gross broadcasting revenues, was generated from local advertising and
approximately $23.7 million, or 27.3% of our gross broadcasting revenues, was
generated from national advertising. Each of our station's local sales staff
solicits advertising directly from local advertisers or through an advertising
agency representing local advertisers. For national advertising sales, we have
engaged Caballero Spanish Media, LLC, a subsidiary of Interep National Radio
Sales, Inc., a national representative company.

In the broadcasting industry, radio stations sometimes utilize trade or
barter agreements to reduce cash expenses by exchanging advertising time for
advertising time with other media, and for goods and services related to
promotional campaigns. In each of our 1996, 1997 and 1998 fiscal years, we sold
approximately 5.9%, 4.4% and 3.1%, respectively, of our available advertising
time for trade or barter. We believe that our percentage of advertising time
sold for trade or barter will continue to decrease in the future.

EXPENSES

Our most significant expenses are employee compensation, rating services,
advertising and promotion expenses, lease expenses for studios and transmission
tower space and music license fees. We strive to control expenses by (1)
centralizing functions such as finance, accounting, payables, budgeting, legal,
human resources, management information systems and the overall programming
management function, and (2) using our multiple stations, market presence and
purchasing power to negotiate favorable rates with certain vendors and national
representative selling agencies. Depreciation of fixed assets and amortization
of costs associated with the acquisition of additional stations and interest
carrying charges are also significant factors in determining our overall expense
level.

Our operating results in any period may be affected by advertising and
promotion expenses that do not produce commensurate broadcast revenue in the
period in which such expenses are incurred. We generally incur advertising and
promotion expenses in order to increase listenership and Arbitron ratings.
Increased advertising revenue may wholly or partially lag behind the incurrence
of such advertising and promotion expenses because Arbitron only reports
complete ratings information on a quarterly basis.

<PAGE> 32

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

From fiscal year 1996 through fiscal year 1998, we acquired five radio
stations, disposed of all of our AM radio stations and issued and repurchased
certain of our securities. The impact of these transactions on our results of
operations is described below:

- In March 1996, we acquired the FCC broadcast license and substantially
all of the assets of WPAT-FM in New York for $86.4 million, including
closing costs of $1.8 million. The acquisition of WPAT-FM was financed by
cash on hand and by the issuance of senior secured notes and redeemable
preferred stock, each of which was subsequently redeemed in March 1997 in
connection with the refinancing associated with the purchase of WRMA-FM,
WXDJ-FM and WLEY-FM. Pursuant to the terms of a local marketing
agreement, we began operating WPAT-FM on January 26, 1996 and the
revenues and operating expenses of WPAT-FM are included in our operating
results from that date.

- In March 1997, we issued (1) $175.0 million of our 14 1/4% preferred
stock, (2) warrants to purchase 74,900 shares of our Class B Common
Stock, and (3) $75.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 11% notes
due 2004 (collectively, the "1997 Financings"). In connection with the
1997 Financings, we capitalized finance costs of $5.7 million related to
the 11% notes due 2004 and charged issuance costs of $9.0 million related
to our preferred stock and warrants. A portion of the proceeds from the
1997 Financings was used to retire all of our then outstanding redeemable
preferred stock and 12 1/4% senior secured notes due 2001. We realized a
loss on the retirement of the 12 1/4% senior secured notes due 2001 of
approximately $1.6 million, net of taxes of approximately $1.1 million.
This amount has been classified as an extraordinary item in the
accompanying "Consolidated Statement of Operations" in the financial
statements of this prospectus.

- In March 1997, we acquired the FCC broadcast licenses and substantially
all of the assets of WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM in Miami for $112.1 million,
including closing costs of $1.1 million. The acquisitions of WRMA-FM and
WXDJ-FM were financed by the proceeds we received from the 1997
Financings. Our results include the operation of WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM from
their respective dates of acquisition.

- In March 1997, we acquired the FCC broadcast license and substantially
all of the assets of WLEY-FM in Chicago for $33.2 million including
closing costs of $0.2 million. The acquisition of WLEY-FM was financed by
the proceeds we received from the 1997 Financings and a note payable to
the seller of WLEY-FM for $3.0 million. Our results include the operation
of WLEY-FM from its date of acquisition.

- In September 1997, we sold the assets and FCC licenses of WXLX-AM
(serving the New York market) and WCMQ-AM (serving the Miami area) for
$26.0 million. We recorded a gain of $18.6 million on the sale which is
classified under other income as "Gain on sale of AM stations" in the
accompanying "Consolidated Statement of Operations" in the financial
statements of this prospectus.

- In October and November 1997, we repurchased through a tender offer and
open-market purchases $13.2 million in principal amount of our 12 1/2%
senior notes due 2002. The total amount paid by us for these notes was
$15.0 million, plus accrued interest of $0.7 million. We recognized a
loss on the tender offer of $1.6 million, net of income taxes of $1.1
million, due to the premium paid for the notes and the write-off of the
deferred financing costs and original issue discounts related to the
notes purchased. This amount has been

26
<PAGE> 33

classified as an extraordinary item in the accompanying "Consolidated Statement
of Operations" in the financial statements of this prospectus.

- In December 1997, we sold the assets and FCC license of KXMG-AM (serving
the Los Angeles metropolitan area) for $18.0 million. We recorded a gain
of $17.6 million on the sale which is classified under other income as
"Gain on sale of AM stations" in the accompanying Consolidated Statement
of Operations" in the financial statements of this prospectus.

- On May 13, 1998, we acquired the FCC broadcast license and substantially
all of the assets of KLEY-FM (formerly KRIO-FM) in San Antonio, Texas for
$9.3 million, including closing costs of $0.1 million. The acquisition of
KLEY-FM was financed with cash on hand. Our results include the operation
of this station from the date of its acquisition.

During fiscal year 1999, we acquired three stations, WCMA-FM (formerly
WDOY-FM), WMEG-FM and WEMG-FM (all serving Puerto Rico), and eighty percent of
the issued and outstanding capital stock of JuJu Media, Inc., the owner of
LaMusica.com. The acquisitions of WCMA-FM, WMEG-FM and WEGM-FM were financed by
cash on hand. The acquisition of JuJu Media, Inc. was financed by cash on hand
and the issuance of promissory notes. The results of these acquisitions did not
meet the significance test for pro forma presentation and, consequently, no pro
forma results have been included with respect to these acquisitions. Our results
include the operations of these stations and JuJu Media, Inc. from the date of
their respective acquisitions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Nine Months Ended June 27, 1999 Compared to the Nine Months Ended June 28, 1998

Net Revenues. Our net revenues were $70.4 million for the nine months
ended June 27, 1999, compared to $54.6 million for the nine months ended June
28, 1998, an increase of $15.8 million or 28.9%. The increase in net revenues
was mostly attributable to the Chicago and New York market stations where our
net revenues increased 34.3% and 31.7%, respectively, due to high ratings,
robust local economies and increased advertising rates. All of the markets in
which we operate stations experienced strong increases in net revenues,
including our Los Angeles FM station where net revenue increased by 19.4%.

Station Operating Expenses. Total station operating expenses were $31.8
million for the nine months ended June 27, 1999, compared to $28.3 million for
the nine months ended June 28, 1998, an increase of $3.5 million or 12.4%. The
higher station operating expenses were caused mainly by the inclusion of the
results of the recent acquisitions in San Antonio and Puerto Rico as well as
JuJu Media, Inc. accounting for $2.7 million or 77.1% of the increase in station
operating expenses. To a lesser extent, all of our other radio stations
experienced a 2.7% increase in operating expenses due to higher commissions and
music license fees associated with higher sales. In the New York and Miami
markets, we had an increase in advertising, promotional and audience research
expenses. This increase in operating expenses was offset by lower general and
administrative expenses due to improved collections.

Broadcast Cash Flow. Broadcast cash flow was $38.6 million for the nine
months ended June 27, 1999, compared to $26.3 million for the nine months ended
June 28, 1998, an increase of $12.3 million or 46.8%. This increase was
attributable to strong revenue growth and effective management of operating
expenses. Our broadcast cash flow margin increased to 54.8% for the nine months
ended June 27, 1999 compared to 48.2% for the nine months ended June 28, 1998.

Corporate Expenses. Total corporate expenses were $7.7 million for the
nine months ended June 27, 1999, compared to approximately $5.1 million for the
nine months ended June 28, 1998, an increase of $2.6 million or 51.0%. The
increase in corporate expenses resulted mainly from performance bonuses paid to
our Chief Executive Officer, increases in the number of our employees and
increased travel and other corporate overhead expenses relating to our expansion
into new markets.

EBITDA. EBITDA was $30.9 million for the nine months ended June 27, 1999,
compared to $21.2 million for the nine months ended June 29, 1998, an increase
of $9.7 million or 45.7%. Our EBITDA margin was 43.9% for the nine months ended
June 27, 1999, compared to 38.8% for the nine months ended June 28, 1998. The
increase in EBITDA and EBITDA margin was caused by the increase in net revenues
which was partially offset by the increase in station operating expenses and
corporate expenses.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was
$7.2 million for the nine months ended June 27, 1999, compared to $6.9 million
for the nine months ended June 28, 1998, an increase of $0.3 million or 4.3%.
The increase was related to an increase in amortization costs as a result of the
stations purchased in Puerto Rico, WCMA-FM, WMEG-FM and WEGM-FM.

Operating Income. Operating income was $23.7 million for the nine months
ended June 27, 1999, compared to $14.3 million for the nine months ended June
28, 1998, an increase of $9.4 million or 65.7%. The increase was due to the
increase in net revenues, partially offset by the increase in operating
expenses.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $15.7 million for the nine
months ended June 27, 1999, compared to $16.0 million for the nine months ended
June 28, 1998, a decrease of $0.3 million or 1.9%. This decrease was due to the
repurchase of $13.2 million aggregate principal amount of our 12 1/2% notes due
2002 in the first quarter of fiscal 1998.

Other Income (Expense). We had other expenses of $0.5 million for the nine
months ended June 27, 1999, compared to other income of $36.2 million for the
nine months ended June 28, 1998. The other expenses in 1999 resulted primarily
from an additional write-down of owned vacant real estate in the Los Angeles
area. The other income in 1998 was the result of a gain on the sale of our AM
stations during the nine months ended June 28, 1998.

Net Income. Our net income was $4.3 million for the nine months ended June
27, 1999, compared to $19.1 million for the nine months ended June 28, 1998, a
decrease of $14.8 million or 77.5%. The decrease was caused by the absence of
the gain on the sale of our AM stations.

After-Tax Cash Flow. After-tax cash flow was $11.5 million for the nine
months ended June 27, 1999, compared to $5.8 million for the nine months ended
June 28, 1998, an increase of $5.7 million or 98.3%. This increase was primarily
attributable to an increase in EBITDA offset by higher income taxes.

Fiscal Year 1998 Compared to Fiscal Year 1997

Net Revenues. Net revenues were $76.1 million for fiscal year 1998,
compared to $60.0 million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $16.1 million or
26.8%. This increase was due primarily to the inclusion of the full year results
of WRMA-FM, WXDJ-FM and WLEY-FM which we purchased on March 27, 1997. The
increase in net revenues also resulted from a significant increase in the net
revenues of our New York stations, WPAT-FM and WSKQ-FM, and our Miami station,
WCMQ-FM, each of whose results were positively impacted by

28
<PAGE> 35

increased ratings. The increase in net revenues at each of our stations was
partially offset by a decrease in net revenues from our Los Angeles station,
KLAX-FM, in addition to the loss of revenues attributable to the sale of our AM
stations in New York, Miami and Los Angeles.

Station Operating Expenses. Total station operating expenses were $39.5
million for fiscal year 1998, compared to $31.0 million for the fiscal year
1997, an increase of $8.5 million or 27.4%. The increase in operating expenses
was caused mainly by the inclusion of the full year results of WRMA-FM, WXDJ-FM
and WLEY-FM.

Broadcast Cash Flow. Broadcast cash flow was $36.6 million for fiscal year
1998, compared to $29.0 million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $7.6
million or 26.2%. This increase was attributable to significant increases in net
revenues partially offset by increased station operating expenses. Our broadcast
cash flow margin was 48.1% for fiscal year 1998, compared to 48.3% for fiscal
year 1997.

Corporate Expenses. Total corporate expenses were $6.9 million for fiscal
year 1998, compared to $5.6 million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $1.3
million or 23.2%. The increase in corporate expenses was caused mainly by
increased professional fees resulting from potential acquisitions and related
financings.

EBITDA. EBITDA was $29.7 million for fiscal year 1998, compared to $23.4
million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $6.3 million or 26.9%. The increase
in EBITDA was caused by the increase in net revenues, partially offset by
increases in broadcasting operating expenses and corporate expenses, as
described above. Our EBITDA margin was 39.0% for each of the fiscal years 1998
and 1997.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was
$8.9 million for fiscal year 1998, compared to $7.6 million for fiscal year
1997, an increase of $1.3 million or 17.1%. The increase was related to an
increase in amortization costs as a result of the acquisitions of WRMA-FM,
WXDJ-FM and WLEY-FM offset by the decrease attributable to the sale of the AM
stations.

Operating Income. Operating income was $20.9 million for fiscal year 1998,
compared to $15.8 million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $5.1 million or
32.3%. The increase was due to the significant increase in net revenues,
partially offset by the increase in operating expenses.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $20.9 million for fiscal year
1998 compared to $22.2 million for fiscal year 1997, a decrease of $1.3 million
or 5.9%. The decrease was primarily due to the repurchase of $13.2 million
aggregate principal amount of our 12 1/2% notes due 2002 in the first quarter
of 1998.

Other Income (Expense). Other income was $36.0 million for fiscal year
1998, including gain on sale of AM stations of $36.2 million, compared to other
expense of $0.8 million for fiscal year 1997. The other income in 1998 was due
to the gain on the sale of the AM stations. The other expense in 1997 was due
primarily to an additional write-down of owned vacant real estate in the Los
Angeles area.

Net Income (Loss). Our net income for fiscal year 1998 was $18.8 million,
compared to a net loss of $6.2 million for fiscal year 1997. The net income
resulted from the increase in operating income, the gain from the sale of the AM
stations and a slight decrease in interest expenses, partially offset by
additional income taxes.

After-Tax Cash Flow. After-tax cash flow was $7.5 million for fiscal year
1998, compared to $3.1 million for fiscal year 1997, an increase of $4.4 million
or 141.9%. This increase was

29
<PAGE> 36

primarily attributable to an increase in EBITDA, decrease in net interest
expense and gain offset by higher income taxes.

Fiscal Year 1997 Compared to Fiscal Year 1996

Net Revenues. Net revenues were $60.0 million for fiscal year 1997,
compared to $48.6 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $11.4 million, or
23.5%. This increase was due primarily to the inclusion of results of WRMA-FM
and WXDJ-FM, which we purchased on March 27, 1997, and the inclusion of the
results of WPAT-FM for the entire year. The increase in net revenues also
resulted from an increase of $1.1 million in net revenues from our Los Angeles
stations and our acquisition of WLEY-FM in Chicago which increased net revenues
by $0.4 million. These increases in net revenues were offset by decreases in net
revenues from certain of our existing stations, including a decrease of $3.0
million from the operations of WCMQ-AM and WCMQ-FM, and a decrease of $0.5
million from the operations of WSKQ-FM and WXLX-AM.

Station Operating Expenses. Total station operating expenses were $31.0
million for fiscal year 1997, compared to $27.9 million for fiscal year 1996, an
increase of $3.1 million, or 11.1%. The increase in station operating expenses
was caused mainly by the inclusion of the results of WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM in
Miami and our station in Chicago, WLEY-FM, as well as the inclusion of a full
year of expenses for WPAT-FM.

Broadcast Cash Flow. Broadcast cash flow was $29.0 million for fiscal year
1997, compared to $20.8 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $8.2
million or 39.4%. Our broadcast cash flow margin was 48.3% for fiscal year 1997,
compared to 42.8% for fiscal year 1996. The increases in broadcast cash flow and
broadcast cash flow margin were attributable to our purchase of WRMA-FM and
WXDJ-FM which contributed to an increase in sales generated by our Miami
stations of $4.6 million, partially offset by increased expenses of $0.3
million.

Corporate Expenses. Total corporate expenses were $5.6 million for fiscal
year 1997, compared to $3.7 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $1.9
million or 51.4%. The increase in corporate expenses was caused by higher salary
expense and higher professional fees associated with potential acquisitions and
related financings.

EBITDA. EBITDA was $23.4 million for fiscal year 1997, compared to $17.0
million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $6.4 million or 37.6%. The increase
in EBITDA was caused by the increase in net revenues, partially offset by an
increase in operating expenses, as described above. Our EBITDA margin was 39.0%
for fiscal year 1997, compared to 35.0% for fiscal year 1996. This increase was
attributable to the increased broadcast cash flow margin offset by the increased
corporate expenses related to operating more stations.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization expense was
$7.6 million for fiscal year 1997, compared to $4.6 million for fiscal year
1996, an increase of $3.0 million or 65.2%. The significant increase was related
to an increase in amortization costs as a result of the acquisition of WRMA-FM,
WXDJ-FM, WLEY-FM and WPAT-FM.

Operating Income. Operating income was $15.8 million for fiscal year 1997,
compared to $12.5 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $3.3 million, or
26.4%. The increase was due to the significant increase in net revenues
partially offset by the increase in operating expenses.

Interest Expense, Net. Interest expense was $22.2 million for fiscal year
1997 compared to $16.5 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $5.7 million
or 34.5%. The increase was caused

30
<PAGE> 37

primarily by the increase in interest expense associated with our 11% notes
issued to partially finance the acquisitions of WRMA-FM, WXDJ-FM and WLEY-FM.

Other Expense. Other expense for fiscal year 1997 was $0.8 million
compared to $1.6 million for fiscal year 1996, a decrease of $0.8 million or
50.0%. This expense was due primarily to an additional write-down of owned
vacant real estate in the Los Angeles area.

Net Loss. Our net loss for fiscal year 1997 was $6.2 million, compared to
a net loss of $4.5 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase in the net loss of
$1.7 million, or 37.8%. The increase in the net loss was a result of an
extraordinary loss on the retirement of old debt for an amount paid in excess of
our carrying value and the write-off of the related unamortized debt issuance
costs.

After-Tax Cash Flow. After-tax cash flow was $3.1 million for fiscal year
1997, compared to $0.1 million for fiscal year 1996, an increase of $3.0
million. This increase was attributable to increased EBITDA offset by higher
interest expense.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Our primary source of liquidity is cash provided by operations and, to the
extent necessary, undrawn commitments that will be available under the senior
credit facility we intend to enter into after the completion of this offering
and the concurrent senior subordinated notes offering. We intend to use a
significant portion of our capital resources to make future acquisitions. These
acquisitions will be funded from the senior credit facility and internally
generated cash flow.

If we enter into the senior credit facility, our sources of liquidity will
also include amounts available under the revolving credit line included in the
senior credit facility. Our ability to borrow in excess of the commitments
provided by the senior credit facility will be limited by the terms of the
indenture governing the notes. Additionally, such terms will place restrictions
on us with respect to the sale of assets, liens, investments, dividends, debt
repayments, capital expenditures, transactions with affiliates and
consolidations and mergers, among other things.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $11.7 million and $5.0
million for the nine months ended June 27, 1999 and June 28, 1998, respectively.
Net cash flows provided by operating activities were $10.9 million, $6.4 million
and $8.8 million for fiscal years 1998, 1997 and 1996, respectively. Changes in
our net cash flow from operating activities are primarily a result of changes in
advertising revenues and station operating expenses which are affected by the
acquisition and disposition of stations during those periods.

Net cash flows used in investing activities were $28.0 million for the nine
months ended June 27, 1999 and net cash flows provided by investing activities
were $32.5 million for the nine months ended June 28, 1998. Net cash flows
provided by investing activities were $32.2 million for fiscal year 1998 and net
cash flows used in investing activities were $144.4 million and $90.2 million
for fiscal years 1997 and 1996, respectively. Net cash flows used in financing
activities were $0.4 million and $17.7 million for the nine months ended June
27, 1999 and June 28, 1998, respectively. Net cash flows used in financing
activities were $17.8 million for fiscal year 1998 and net cash flows provided
by financing activities were $144.8 million and $69.0 million for fiscal years
1997 and 1996, respectively.

For fiscal year 1999, management anticipates total capital expenditures to
be between $2.0 million and $2.4 million. We anticipate that these expenditures
will be financed by funds from operations.

31
<PAGE> 38

Management believes that cash from operating activities, together with cash
on hand, should be sufficient to permit us to meet our obligations for the
foreseeable future, including: (1) required significant cash interest payments
pursuant to the terms of the senior subordinated notes due 2009, (2) operating
obligations, and (3) capital expenditures. We base these beliefs on the
following assumptions, but cannot assure you that they will be true:

- the economic conditions within the radio broadcasting market and economic
conditions in general will not deteriorate in any material respect;

- we will be able to successfully implement our business strategy;

- we will not incur any material unforeseen liabilities, including, without
limitation, environmental liabilities; and

- no future acquisitions will adversely affect our liquidity.

We continuously review, and are currently reviewing, opportunities to
acquire additional radio stations, primarily in the top 10 Hispanic markets in
the United States. Although we engage in discussions regarding potential
acquisitions from time to time in the ordinary course of business, as of the
date of this prospectus, we have no written understandings, letter of intent or
contracts to acquire radio stations. We anticipate that any future radio station
acquisitions would be financed through funds generated from operations, equity
financings, permitted debt financings or a combination of these sources.
However, there can be no assurance that financing from any of these sources, if
available, will be available on favorable terms.

IMPACT OF INFLATION, MARKET RISK EXPOSURE, CURRENCY FLUCTUATIONS

We believe that inflation has not had a material impact on our results of
operations for each of our fiscal years in the three-year period ended September
27, 1998 and in the nine month period ended June 27, 1999. However, there can be
no assurance that future inflation would not have an adverse impact on our
operating results and financial condition.

We do not have significant market risk exposure since we do not have any
outstanding variable rate debt or derivative financial and commodity instruments
as of June 27, 1999. We are not subject to currency fluctuations since we do not
have any international operations.

YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs which use two digits
rather than four to define the applicable year. Any of our computer programs or
hardware that have date-sensitive software or embedded chips may recognize a
date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year 2000. This could cause
system failures or miscalculations at our broadcast and corporate locations
which in turn could cause disruptions of our operations, including, among other
things, a temporary inability to: produce broadcast signals, process financial
transactions, or engage in similar normal business activities.

We have performed a preliminary analysis of potential problems related to
the year 2000 issue. Internally, we bear some risks in the following areas:
computer hardware and software for our accounting and administrative functions,
computer-controlled programming of music and the transmission of our signals.
Externally, we are at risk, like most companies, of losing power and phone
lines.

In the administrative area, the vast majority of our hardware and software
has been purchased over the past two years and is year 2000 compliant. We have
no more than 30

32
<PAGE> 39

computers that may need to be replaced or upgraded. In the programming areas we
utilize a system which is year 2000 compliant. Studio equipment, transmitters
and other broadcasting equipment are not date sensitive and, consequently, do
not pose a significant year 2000 threat, although we will continue to seek
assurances and/or upgrades from all significant vendors. Our MIS manager and one
of our engineers have visited the majority of our locations and reported to
upper management on definitive problems and solutions. Prior to September 1,
1999, they will have visited and inspected all of our stations. As of June 27,
1999 we have spent $0.1 million to upgrade/replace non-compliant systems and
equipment.

The greatest threat to our ability to continue broadcasting on and after
January 1, 2000 comes from the utilities upon which we are dependent. To date,
we are not aware of any external utility vendor with a year 2000 issue that
would materially impact our results of operations, liquidity, or capital
resources. However, we have no means for ensuring that such vendor will be year
2000 compliant. The inability of such vendors to adequately address the year
2000 issue on a timely basis could have a material adverse effect on us,
including loss of revenue, and substantial unanticipated costs and service
interruptions. In addition, disruptions in the economy generally resulting from
the year 2000 issue could also materially adversely affect us.

While we believe our efforts will provide reasonable assurance that
material disruptions will not occur due to internal failure, the possibility of
interruption still exists. We do not anticipate spending more than an additional
$0.2 million to become year 2000 compliant. We are performing this analysis with
our MIS manager, our engineers and our accounting staff. We have anticipated
that all assessments and solutions will be in place by the fourth quarter of
fiscal year 1999. We are in the process of developing a contingency plan to
address possible failures by us or our vendors related to Year 2000 compliance.

BUSINESS

- net revenues grew at a compound annual rate of 29.3%, from $55.0 million
to $91.9 million;

- broadcast cash flow grew at a compound annual rate of 35.8%, from $26.5
million to $48.9 million; and

- EBITDA grew at a compound annual rate of 35.5%, from $21.5 million to
$39.5 million.

SBS is led by Mr. Raul Alarcon, Jr., who has been Chief Executive Officer
and President since 1986. The Alarcon family has been involved in
Spanish-language radio broadcasting since the 1950's, when Mr. Raul Alarcon,
Sr., the Chairman of our Board of Directors, established the first radio network
in Camaguey, Cuba. Members of our senior management team, on average, have over
25 years of experience in Spanish-language media and radio broadcasting.

MARKET OPPORTUNITY

Our radio stations target the largest Hispanic markets in the United
States, including Puerto Rico. We believe that these markets have significant
growth potential for the following reasons:

34
<PAGE> 41

Spanish-speaking population in the world. We believe that these factors
will lead to significant increases in demand for Spanish-language radio,
music and entertainment.

- ATTRACTIVE DEMOGRAPHIC GROUP FOR ADVERTISERS. The U.S. Hispanic
population accounted for consumer spending of $380.0 billion in 1998
(7.2% of total U.S. consumer spending), an increase of 78.4% since 1990.
By 2000, U.S. Hispanics are expected to account for estimated consumer
spending of $457.8 billion (8.2% of total U.S. consumer spending), and by
2010 are expected to account for estimated consumer spending of $965.3
billion (12% of total U.S. consumer spending), far outpacing the expected
growth of overall U.S. consumer spending during the same period. Although
Hispanic consumer spending represented 7.2% of total consumer spending in
the United States in 1998, advertising expenditures targeted at Hispanics
represented only 1.4% of total advertising expenditures. We believe that
as U.S. Hispanic consumer spending continues to grow relative to overall
consumer spending, the advertising expenditures targeted at Hispanics
will increase significantly, eventually closing the gap between the
current level of advertising targeted at Hispanics and the buying power
that the Hispanic population in the United States represents. In addition
to increasing buying power, according to market research and compared to
the population as a whole, U.S. Hispanics (1) generally spend a larger
percentage of their household income on consumer goods, (2) have larger
households (3.6 persons per household compared to the average 2.5
persons), (3) are generally younger (median 26 years compared to 35
years) and, (4) on average, tend to be more brand conscious. These
factors make U.S. Hispanics an attractive target audience for many major
U.S. advertisers.

- GROWTH IN SPANISH-LANGUAGE ADVERTISER SPENDING. In 1998, a total of $1.7
billion was spent on Spanish-language advertising, compared to $1.1
billion in 1995. This represents a compound annual growth rate of 17.2%,
which is more than double the total advertising growth rate over the same
period. Approximately 26% of the $1.7 billion spent on Spanish-language
advertising was directed to Spanish-language radio. We believe that major
advertisers have found that Spanish-language advertising, and
Spanish-language radio advertising in particular, is a more effective
means of reaching the growing U.S. Hispanic audience compared to
English-language media.

- GROWTH IN SPANISH-LANGUAGE ADVERTISING RATES. We believe
Spanish-language advertising rates have been rising at a faster rate in
recent years than rates for general media, yet Spanish-language
advertising rates are still generally lower than for comparable
English-language media. We estimate that our stations in New York
currently receive approximately 63% of the advertising rates that a
similarly rated English-language station would receive, compared to only
39% in fiscal year 1997. In Los Angeles, we estimate that our station
currently receives 73% of the rates of a similarly rated English-language
station, compared to only 46% in fiscal year 1997. We believe that as
advertisers continue to recognize the buying power of the U.S. Hispanic
population, the gap in advertising rates between Spanish-language and
English-language media will continue to narrow.

BUSINESS STRATEGY

OPERATING STRATEGY

Our operating strategy focuses on maximizing our radio stations' appeal to
our audience and our advertisers while minimizing operating expenses in order to
grow revenue and cash flow. To achieve these goals, we focus on:

Providing High-Quality Spanish-Language Programming. We format the
programming of each of our stations to capture a significant share of the
Spanish-language audience. We use extensive market research including third
party consultants and periodic music testing to assess listener preferences in
each station's target demographic audience. We then refine our programming to
reflect the results of this research and testing. Because the U.S. Hispanic
population is so diverse, consisting of numerous identifiable groups from many
different countries of origin each with its own cultural and musical heritage,
we strive to make ourselves intimately familiar with the musical tastes and the
preferences of each of the various ethnic Hispanic groups and customize our
programming accordingly.

Retaining Strong Local Management Teams. We employ local management teams
in each of our markets who are responsible for the day-to-day operations of our
radio stations. Our key local managers generally consist of a general station
manager, general sales manager and programming director. Stations are staffed
with managers who have experience and knowledge of the local radio market and
the local Hispanic market. Because of the cultural diversity of the Hispanic
population from region to region in the United States, decisions regarding
day-to-day programming, sales and promotional efforts are made by local
managers. We believe this approach improves our flexibility and responsiveness
to changing conditions in each of the markets we serve.

Utilizing Aggressive Sales Efforts. Our sales force focuses on converting
audience share into advertising revenue. In order to encourage an aggressive and
focused sales force, we have developed compensation structures tied to
advertising revenue. We seek to maximize our sales to national advertisers
because national advertising generally commands a higher rate per advertising
spot than does local advertising. We have attracted key sales executives from
general market radio who have applied their expertise and relationships with the
advertising community to increase our share of advertising from leading general
market advertisers. We believe that our

36
<PAGE> 43

focused sales efforts are working to increase media spending targeted at the
U.S. Hispanic consumer market and will enable us to continue to achieve
significant revenue growth, and to narrow the gap between the level of
advertising currently targeted at U.S. Hispanics and the potential buying power
of the U.S. Hispanic population.

Controlling Operating Costs. By employing a disciplined approach to
operating our radio stations, we have been able to achieve operating margins
which we believe are among the highest in the radio broadcast industry. We
emphasize control of each station's operating costs through detailed budgeting,
tight control over staffing levels and expense analysis. While local management
is responsible for the day-to-day operation of each station, corporate
management is responsible for long-range and strategic planning, establishing
policies and procedures, maximizing cost savings where centralized activity is
appropriate, allocating resources and maintaining overall control of the
stations.

Making Effective Use of Promotions and Special Events. We believe that
effective promotional efforts play a significant role in both adding new
listeners and increasing listener loyalty. Our promotional and marketing
campaigns focus on increasing Hispanic consumer awareness of advertisers'
products and services. Our goal is to use our expertise at marketing to the
Hispanic consumer in each of the markets in which we own and operate stations,
thereby attracting a large share of advertising revenue. We have organized
special promotional appearances, such as station van appearances at client
events, concerts and tie-ins to major events which form an important part of our
marketing strategy. Many of these events build advertiser loyalty because they
enable us to offer advertisers an additional means of reaching the Hispanic
consumer. In many instances, these events are co-sponsored by local television
and newspapers, allowing our advertisers to reach a larger combined audience.

Maintaining Strong Community Involvement. We have historically been, and
will continue to be, actively involved within the local communities that we
serve. Our radio stations participate in numerous community programs,
fund-raisers and activities benefitting the local community and Hispanics
abroad. Other examples of our community involvement include free public service
announcements, free equal-opportunity employment announcements, tours and
discussions held by radio station personalities with school and community groups
designed to limit drug and gang involvement, free concerts and events designed
to promote family values within the local Hispanic communities, and extended
coverage, when necessary, of significant events which have an impact on the U.S.
Hispanic population. Our stations and members of our management have received
numerous community service awards and acknowledgments from government entities
and community and philanthropic organizations for their service to the
community. We believe that this involvement helps to build and maintain station
awareness and listener loyalty.

ACQUISITION STRATEGY

Our acquisition strategy is to acquire radio stations in the largest U.S.
Hispanic markets. We consider acquisitions of stations in our existing markets,
as well as acquisitions of stations in other markets with a large Hispanic
population, where we can maximize our revenues through aggressive sales to U.S.
Hispanic and general market advertisers. These acquisitions may include stations
which do not currently target the U.S. Hispanic market, but which we believe can
be successfully reformatted.

37
<PAGE> 44

In analyzing potential radio station acquisition candidates, we consider
many factors including:

- the size of the Hispanic market;

- anticipated growth, demographics, and other characteristics of the
market;

- the nature and number of competitive stations in the market;

- the nature of other media competition in the station's market;

- the probability of achieving operating synergies through multiple station
ownership within the target market;

- the existing or potential quality of the broadcast signal and
transmission facility;

- the station's ratings, revenue and operating cash flow; and

- the price and terms of the purchase.

By implementing our operating strategy, we are successful in many markets
where our competitors have greater resources than we do. For example:

- WPAT-FM -- NEW YORK. When we acquired WPAT-FM in March of 1996, the
station had net broadcasting revenues of $8.1 million for the year ended
December 1995. Following our acquisition of WPAT-FM, we changed the
station's format to Spanish Adult Contemporary and integrated the station
into our existing New York operations. For the nine-month period ended
June 27, 1999, WPAT-FM generated net broadcasting revenues of $9.6
million, and according to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey was the number
two ranked Spanish-language radio station in the New York market and one
of the top 20 most listened to radio stations in the United States.

- WLEY-FM -- CHICAGO. When we acquired WLEY-FM (formerly WYSY-FM) in March
of 1997, the station had net broadcasting revenues of $5.0 million for
the 12-month period ended December 31, 1996. Following our acquisition of
WLEY-FM, we hired new management, changed the station's format to
Regional Mexican. For the nine-month period ended June 27, 1999, WLEY-FM
generated net broadcasting revenues of $7.4 million and according to the
Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey was the number one ranked Spanish-language
radio station in Chicago.

- KLEY-FM -- SAN ANTONIO. When we acquired KLEY-FM in May of 1998, the
station had net broadcasting revenues of $1.2 million for the 12-month
period ended February 28, 1998, and was the number four ranked
Spanish-language radio station in San Antonio. Following our acquisition
of KLEY-FM, we hired new management, changed the station's format to
Tejano-Regional Mexican. For the nine-month period ended June 27, 1999,
KLEY-FM generated net broadcasting revenues of $1.3 million and according
to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey was the number three ranked
Spanish-language radio station in San Antonio.

INTERNET STRATEGY

Our Internet strategy is designed to complement our existing business and
to enable us to capitalize on our U.S. Hispanic market expertise. The
centerpiece of our strategy is LaMusica.com, an Internet web site and on-line
community focused on the U.S. Hispanic market. This web site will offer all of
our radio stations' broadcasts through the use of audio

38
<PAGE> 45

streaming technology and will provide our advertisers with a complementary means
of reaching their target audience.

PROGRAMMING

We format the programming of each of our stations to capture a substantial
share of the U.S. Hispanic audience. The U.S. Hispanic population is diverse,
consisting of numerous identifiable groups from many different countries of
origin, each with its own musical and cultural heritage. The music, culture,
customs and Spanish dialects vary from one radio market to another. We strive to
be very familiar with the musical tastes and preferences of each of the various
ethnic Hispanic groups and customize our programming to match the local
preferences of our target demographic audience in each market we serve. We have
an in-house research department in Miami of 16 employees who conduct extensive
radio market research on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis. By employing
listener study groups and telephone surveys modeled after Arbitron written
survey methodology, but with even larger sample sizes than Arbitron, we are able
to assess listener preferences, track trends and gauge our success on a daily
basis, well before Arbitron results are published. In this manner, we can
respond immediately to changing listener preferences and trends by refining our
programming to reflect the results of our research and testing. Each of our
programming formats is described below.

- Spanish Tropical. The Spanish Tropical format primarily consists of
salsa, merengue, and cumbia music. Salsa is dance music combining Latin
Caribbean rhythms with jazz originating from Puerto Rico, Cuba and the
Dominican Republic, which is popular with Hispanics living in New York
and Miami. Merengue music is up-tempo dance music originating from the
Dominican Republic. Cumbia is a festive, folkloric music which originated
in Colombia.

- Regional Mexican. The Regional Mexican format consists of various types
of music played in different regions of Mexico such as ranchera, nortena,
banda and cumbia. Ranchera music, originating from Jalisco, Mexico, is a
traditional folkloric sound

39
<PAGE> 46

commonly referred to as mariachi music. Mariachi music features
acoustical instruments and is considered the music indigenous to Mexicans
who live in country towns. Nortena means northern, and is representative
of Northern Mexico. Featuring an accordion, nortena has a polka sound
with a distinct Mexican flavor. Banda is a regional format from the state
of Sinaloa, Mexico and is popular in California. Banda resembles up-tempo
marching band music with synthesizers.

- Tejano. The Tejano format consists of music based on Mexican themes but
which originated in Texas. Tejano music is a combination of contemporary
rock, ranchera and country music, the lyrics of which are primarily sung
in Spanish.

- Spanish Adult Contemporary. The Spanish Adult Contemporary format
includes pop, Latin rock, and ballads. This format is similar to English
Adult Contemporary featured on contemporary hit radio stations.

- Spanish Adult Top 40. The Spanish Adult Top 40 format consists of a
variety of Latin hit songs from the 1980's and 1990's.

- Spanish Oldies. The Spanish Oldies format includes a variety of Latin
music mainly from the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's.

- Dance. The Dance format consists of upbeat dance and house rhythms,
mainly from the 1980's and 1990's, that are played in dance clubs, and it
includes English-language music.

The programming formats of our radio stations and the target demographic of
each station are as follows:

RADIO STATION PORTFOLIO

The following is a general description of each of our markets and our radio
stations within each of these markets. Audience share and audience share rank
data for the New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Chicago and San Antonio markets are
from the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey based on surveys reported four times a
year. Audience share and audience share rank data for the Puerto Rico market are
from the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey, based on surveys reported twice a year.
Revenue share information for our Chicago market is derived from Hungerford
data, and for all other markets, revenue share information is derived from BIA
Research and

40
<PAGE> 47

Miller Kaplan data. Revenue rank and revenue share information are reported
cumulatively for each calendar quarter and, therefore, include the period from
January 1 through the date indicated.

NEW YORK

The New York market is the second largest radio market in terms of
advertising revenues which are projected to be $688.1 million in 1999. In 1998,
the New York market had the third largest U.S. Hispanic population, with
approximately 3.6 million Hispanics, which is approximately 18.1% of the New
York market's total population. We believe that we own the strongest franchise
in terms of audience share and number of Spanish-language radio stations in the
New York market, with two of the three FM Spanish-language radio stations. New
York experienced annual radio revenue growth of 10.3% between 1992 and 1998, and
radio revenue in New York is expected to continue growing at an annual rate of
9.7% between 1999 and 2002.

- WSKQ-FM. In January 1989, we acquired WSKQ-FM for $52.5 million. WSKQ-FM
was the first Spanish-language FM station to serve the New York market,
making its debut in 1989. In 1993, after extensive research, we changed
the station's format to Spanish Tropical. This format is a mix of salsa
and merengue rhythms. The Spanish Tropical format has proven to be very
successful and according to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey, WSKQ-FM is
New York's number one ranked Spanish-language radio station and the
number three ranked station overall. WSKQ-FM is ranked number one in its
targeted audience, the 25-54 age demographic, with a 5.9 share.

- WPAT-FM. In March 1996, we purchased WPAT-FM for $86.4 million,
including closing costs of $1.8 million, because we believed that the New
York Spanish-language radio market was underserved. Consequently, we
reformatted WPAT-FM with a Spanish Adult Contemporary format designed to
complement WSKQ-FM's upbeat salsa and merengue format. According to the
Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey, WPAT-FM is New York's number two ranked
Spanish-language radio station and the number eleven ranked

41
<PAGE> 48

station overall. WPAT-FM is ranked number eleven in its targeted
audience, the 25-54 age demographic, with a 3.6 share.

LOS ANGELES

The Los Angeles market is the largest radio market in terms of advertising
revenues which are projected to be $726.5 million in 1999. In 1998, the Los
Angeles market had the largest U.S. Hispanic population, with approximately 6.3
million Hispanics, which is approximately 38.7% of the Los Angeles market's
total population. Los Angeles experienced annual radio revenue growth of 7.5%
between 1992 and 1998, and radio revenue in Los Angeles is expected to continue
growing at an annual rate of 10.3% between 1999 and 2002.

Spanish-language radio station and the number nine ranked station
overall. KLAX-FM is ranked number eight in its targeted audience, the
18-34 age demographic, with a 4.6 share.

PUERTO RICO

The Puerto Rico market is the twenty-eighth largest radio market in terms
of advertising revenues which are projected to be $90.0 million in 1999. In
1998, the Puerto Rico market had the second largest U.S. Hispanic population,
with approximately 3.8 million Hispanics, which is approximately 99.6% of the
Puerto Rico market's total population. Puerto Rico experienced annual radio
revenue growth of 5.4% between 1992 and 1998, and radio revenue in Puerto Rico
is expected to continue growing at an annual rate of 5.7% between 1999 and 2002.

- WCMQ-FM. In November 1986, we acquired WCMQ-FM (and WCMQ-AM) for $15.0
million. In 1997, we sold WCMQ-AM for $8.0 million. In October 1996, to
complement WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM, we reformatted WCMQ-FM by implementing a
Spanish Oldies format. According to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey,
WCMQ-FM is Miami's number five ranked Spanish-language radio station and
the number eighteen ranked station overall. WCMQ-FM is ranked number ten
in its targeted audience, the 35-54 age demographic, with a 4.1 share.

- WRMA-FM. In March 1997, we purchased WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM for $112.2
million, including closing costs of $1.2 million. A Spanish Adult
Contemporary station, WRMA-FM features a blend of ballads and pop songs
from the 1970's to the present. According to the Spring 1999 Arbitron
Survey, WRMA-FM is Miami's number four ranked Spanish-language radio
station and the number thirteen ranked station overall. WRMA-FM is ranked
number fourteen in its targeted audience, the 25-49 age demographic, with
a 3.0 share.

<PAGE> 51

- WXDJ-FM. By blending salsa and merengue, this station's Spanish Tropical
format targets the emerging musical tastes of the rapidly changing Miami
Hispanic population. According to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey,
WXDJ-FM is Miami's number three ranked Spanish-language radio station and
the number eight ranked station overall. WXDJ-FM is ranked number seven
in its targeted audience, the 18-34 age demographic, with a 5.0 share.

We acquired our two stations in the Florida Keys to supplement our Miami
operations by targeting Miami listeners vacationing in the Keys. We believe that
we have the strongest position in terms of audience share and number of
Spanish-language radio stations in the Keys market, with the only two FM
Spanish-language radio stations. Arbitron ratings and BIA Research data do not
exist for the Keys market.

- WVMQ-FM (KEY WEST). In 1994, we acquired WVMQ-FM (formerly WSKP-FM) for
$0.2 million. The format of WVMQ-FM is Spanish Adult Top 40.

format of WZMQ-FM, which is simulcast with WVMQ-FM, is also Spanish Adult
Top 40.

We are actively seeking regulatory approvals from government agencies to
relocate our Key Largo tower closer to Miami to enhance our presence in the
Miami market. We cannot assure you that we will be able to obtain the necessary
regulatory approvals to accomplish this goal.

CHICAGO

The Chicago market is the third largest radio market in terms of
advertising revenues which are projected to be $471.0 million in 1999. In 1998,
the Chicago market had the sixth largest U.S. Hispanic population, with
approximately 1.2 million Hispanics, which is approximately 12.7% of the Chicago
market's total population. We believe that we own the strongest franchise in the
Chicago market with the number one ranked FM Spanish-language radio station.
Chicago experienced annual radio revenue growth of 8.7% between 1992 and 1998,
and radio revenue in Chicago is expected to continue growing at an annual rate
of 9.0% between 1999 and 2002.

- KLEY-FM. In May 1998, we acquired KLEY-FM (formerly KRIO-FM) for $9.3
million. At the time, KLEY-FM was programmed as a strictly Tejano
station. In July 1998, we expanded the format to Regional Mexican and
Tejano. According to the Spring 1999 Arbitron Survey, KLEY-FM is San
Antonio's number three ranked Spanish-language radio station and the
number fifteen ranked station overall. KLEY-FM is ranked number eight in
its targeted audience, the 18-34 age demographic, with a 4.0 share.

LATIN MUSIC ON-LINE ("LAMUSICA.COM")

LaMusica.com is a bilingual Spanish-English Internet web site and on-line
community that focuses on the U.S. Hispanic market. LaMusica.com is a provider
of original information and interactive content related to Latin music,
entertainment, news and culture. We believe that LaMusica.com, together with our
radio station portfolio, enables our audience to enjoy additional targeted and
culturally-specific entertainment options, such as concert listings, CD reviews,
local entertainment calendars, and interactive content on popular Latin
recording artists and musicians. Similarly, LaMusica.com enables our advertisers
to cost-effectively reach their targeted Hispanic consumer through an
additional, dynamic and rapidly growing medium.

LaMusica.com is currently developing links to the web sites for all of our
radio stations which we intend to become operational in the near future. This
network of web sites will, among other things, permit our target audiences to
listen to streaming audio of live radio broadcasts from each of our radio
stations from anywhere in the United States and the world. In addition to our
network of station web sites and our production of original interactive content
relating to Latin music and entertainment, we plan to offer enhanced community
features on LaMusica.com such as branded e-mail, bulletin boards, fan clubs,
chat rooms, personals and horoscopes.

We anticipate LaMusica.com will generate revenues primarily from two
distinct sources: (1) advertising and sponsorship and (2) electronic commerce
opportunities, such as on-line music sales. We will use our stations' on-air
marketing power to draw visitors to LaMusica.com.

46
<PAGE> 53

We are currently initiating a nationwide advertising campaign on our radio
stations in order to increase audience awareness of LaMusica.com. We will also
utilize our strong relationships with advertisers and the music industry to
develop banner advertising and sponsorships. With respect to electronic
commerce, we are developing a business model to sell music directly to consumers
on our web sites, as music represents the most frequently purchased item
on-line. We plan to utilize the services of a leading music order fulfillment
company in order to facilitate our on-line music sales. As music technology and
industry standards evolve, we will explore additional opportunities for the sale
of music on-line, including downloads of digital music and the sale of
customized compact discs. We also plan to sell t-shirts, posters and other Latin
music-related merchandise.

In addition to the rapidly growing U.S. Hispanic population, we believe
that LaMusica.com will benefit from the following:

- the percentage of Hispanics in the United States (excluding Puerto Rico)
accessing the Internet either at home or at work is currently estimated
at 36%, a percentage which we believe will increase substantially over
the next few years;

- the percentage of Hispanic households in the United States (excluding
Puerto Rico) that own a computer is estimated at 26%;

- $571.0 million was spent on Latin music CDs, cassettes and music videos
in 1998, an increase in dollar terms of 16.0% from 1997, representing the
fastest growing segment of the music industry;

- approximately two-thirds of respondents in Arbitron surveys expressed
interest in purchasing music from web sites maintained by radio stations;
and

- we believe that the U.S. Hispanic market is currently underserved by the
Internet and that there are a limited number of on-line businesses
targeting the U.S. Hispanic consumer.

We plan to use our knowledge of our Internet user base to help advertisers
create more effective on-line advertising campaigns. In addition, we intend to
use advertising techniques and tracking technologies to:

- target advertising to users with specific demographic profiles;

- gather extensive data on our users; and

- use daily tracking data to analyze a particular campaign's effectiveness.

Our management team has been developing LaMusica.com for the past four
years and has extensive technological knowledge and experience in the
development and creation of original content. LaMusica.com has been recognized
for its excellence in Latin music content on the Internet and received a "Top
5%" award from Lycos(R), has been named a "Top Latino" web site by Tesoros del
Web, received a "Best of the Web" award from Home PC and is a snap.com editor's
choice for Latin music on-line.

MANAGEMENT AND PERSONNEL

As of July 16, 1999, we had 388 full-time employees, 10 of whom were
primarily involved in senior management, 163 in programming, 119 in sales, 82 in
general administration and 14 in technical activities.

47
<PAGE> 54

To facilitate efficient management from our Miami, Florida headquarters, we
access and utilize computerized accounting systems from our properties to
provide current information to management on station operations and to assist in
cost control and the preparation of monthly financial statements. Corporate
executives regularly visit each station to monitor its operations and ensure
that our policies are properly followed.

SEASONALITY

Seasonal net broadcasting revenue fluctuations are common in the radio
broadcasting industry and are due primarily to fluctuations in advertising
expenditures by local and national advertisers. Our second fiscal quarter
(January through March) generally produces the lowest net broadcasting revenue
for the year because of normal post-holiday decreases in advertising
expenditures.

ADVERTISING

Virtually all radio station revenue is derived from advertising. This
revenue is usually classified in one of two categories -- "national" or "local."
"National" refers to advertising that is solicited by a national representative
firm that represents the station and is paid commissions based on collected net
revenues. Our national sales representative is Caballero Spanish Media, LLC, a
division of Interep National Radio Sales, Inc. "Local" refers to advertising
purchased by advertisers in the local community served by a particular station.

We believe that radio is one of the most efficient and cost-effective means
for advertisers to reach targeted demographic groups. Advertising rates charged
by a radio station are based primarily on the station's ability to attract
listeners in a given market and on the attractiveness to advertisers of the
station's listener demographics. Rates vary depending upon a program's
popularity among the listeners an advertiser is seeking to attract, the number
of advertisers vying for available air time and the availability of alternative
media in the market. Radio advertising rates generally are highest during the
morning and afternoon drive-time hours which are the peak hours for radio
audience listening. We believe that having multiple stations in a market is
desirable to national advertisers enabling the broadcaster to command higher
advertising rates. We believe we will be able to increase our rates as new and
existing advertisers recognize the increasing desirability of targeting the
growing Hispanic population in the United States.

Each station broadcasts a predetermined number of advertisements each hour
with the actual number depending upon the format of a particular station. We
determine the number of advertisements broadcast hourly that can maximize the
station's available revenue dollars without jeopardizing its audience listener
levels. While there may be shifts from time to time in the number of
advertisements broadcast during a particular time of the day, the total number
of advertisements broadcast on a particular station generally does not vary
significantly from year to year.

Our revenue mix between local and national advertising varies significantly
by market. We strive to increase the level of national advertising since
national advertising generally commands a higher dollar rate per advertising
spot than does local advertising. Currently, approximately 73% of our
advertising is local and 27% is national.

Although the majority of our advertising contracts are short-term
(generally running for less than three months), we have long-term relationships
with some of our advertisers. In each of our broadcasting markets, we employ
salespeople to obtain local advertising revenues. We believe that our local
sales force is crucial to maintaining relationships with key local advertisers
and

48
<PAGE> 55

agencies and identifying new advertisers. We generally pay sales commissions to
our local sales staff upon the receipt from advertisers of the payments related
to these sales. We offer assistance to local advertisers by providing them with
studio facilities to produce 60-second commercials free of charge.

COMPETITION

The success of each of our stations depends significantly upon its audience
ratings and its share of the overall advertising revenue within its market. The
radio broadcasting industry is a highly competitive business. Each of our radio
stations competes with both Spanish-language and English-language radio stations
in its market as well as with other advertising media such as newspapers,
broadcast television, cable television, the Internet, magazines, outdoor
advertising, transit advertising and direct mail marketing. Several of the
stations with which we compete are subsidiaries of large national or regional
companies that have substantially greater resources than we do. Factors which
are material to competitive position include management experience, the
station's rank in its market, signal strength and frequency, and audience
demographics, including the nature of the Spanish market targeted by a
particular station.

Although the radio broadcasting industry is highly competitive, some
barriers to entry exist. These barriers can be mitigated to some extent by
changing existing radio station formats and upgrading power, among other
actions. The operation of a radio station requires a license or other
authorization from the FCC, and the number of radio stations that can operate in
a given market is limited by the availability of FM and AM radio frequencies
allotted by the FCC to communities in that market. In addition, the FCC's
multiple ownership rules regulate the number of stations that may be owned and
controlled by a single entity in a given market. However, in recent years, these
rules have changed significantly. For a discussion of FCC regulation, see
"Federal Regulation of Radio Broadcasting."

The radio industry is also subject to competition from new media
technologies that are being developed or introduced, such as the delivery of
audio programming by cable television systems, by satellite and by terrestrial
delivery of digital audio broadcasting (known as "DAB"). DAB may deliver to
nationwide and regional audiences, multi-channel, multi-format, digital radio
services with sound quality equivalent to that of compact discs. The FCC has
recently authorized spectrum for the use of a new technology, satellite digital
audio radio services (known as "SDARS"), to deliver audio programming. SDARS may
provide a medium for the delivery by satellite of multiple new audio programming
formats to local and national audiences. It is not known at this time whether
digital technology also may be used in the future by existing radio broadcast
stations either on existing or alternate broadcasting frequencies. There are
also proposals before the FCC to permit a new "low power" radio or
"microbroadcasting" service which could open up opportunities for low cost
neighborhood service on frequencies which would not interfere with existing
stations. No FCC action has been taken on these proposals to date.

The delivery of information through the presently unregulated Internet also
could create a new form of competition. The radio broadcasting industry
historically has grown despite the introduction of new technologies for the
delivery of entertainment and information, such as television broadcasting,
cable television, audio tapes and compact discs. A growing population and the
greater availability of radios, particularly car and portable radios, have
contributed to this growth. We cannot assure you, however, that the development
or introduction in the future of any new media technology will not have an
adverse effect on the radio broadcasting industry.

49
<PAGE> 56

We cannot predict what other matters might be considered in the future by
the FCC, nor can we assess in advance what impact, if any, the implementation of
any of these proposals or changes might have on our business. See "Federal
Regulation of Radio Broadcasting."

ANTITRUST

An important part of our growth strategy is the acquisition of additional
radio stations. After the passage of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, the
Justice Department has become more aggressive in reviewing proposed acquisitions
of radio stations and radio station networks. The Justice Department is
particularly aggressive when the proposed buyer already owns one or more radio
stations in the market of the station it is seeking to buy. Recently, the
Justice Department has challenged a number of radio broadcasting transactions.
Some of those challenges ultimately resulted in consent decrees requiring, among
other things, divestitures of certain stations. In general, the Justice
Department has more closely scrutinized radio broadcasting acquisitions that
result in local market shares in excess of 40% of radio advertising revenue.
Similarly, the FCC staff has announced new procedures to review proposed radio
broadcasting transactions even if the proposed acquisition otherwise complies
with the FCC's ownership limitations. In particular, the FCC may invite public
comment on proposed ratio transactions that the FCC believes, based on its
initial analysis, may present ownership concentration concerns in a particular
local radio market.

FEDERAL REGULATION OF RADIO BROADCASTING

The radio broadcasting industry is subject to extensive and changing
regulation by the FCC of programming, technical operations, employment and other
business practices. The FCC regulates radio broadcast stations pursuant to the
Communications Act. The Communications Act permits the operation of radio
broadcast stations only in accordance with a license issued by the FCC upon a
finding that the grant of a license would serve the public interest, convenience
and necessity. The Communications Act provides for the FCC to exercise its
licensing authority to provide a fair, efficient and equitable distribution of
broadcast service throughout the United States. Among other things, the FCC:

- assigns frequency bands for radio broadcasting;

- determines the particular frequencies, locations and operating power of
radio broadcast stations;

- issues, renews, revokes and modifies radio broadcast station licenses;

- establishes technical requirements for certain transmitting equipment
used by radio broadcast stations;

- adopts and implements regulations and policies that directly or
indirectly affect the ownership, operation, program content and
employment and business practices of radio broadcast stations; and

- has the power to impose penalties, including monetary forfeitures, for
violations of its rules and the Communications Act.

The Communications Act prohibits the assignment of an FCC license, or other
transfer of control of an FCC licensee, without the prior approval of the FCC.
In determining whether to approve assignments or transfers, and in determining
whether to grant or renew a radio broadcast license, the FCC considers a number
of factors pertaining to the licensee (and any proposed licensee), including
restrictions on foreign ownership, compliance with FCC media ownership

50
<PAGE> 57

limits and other FCC rules, licensee character and compliance with the Anti-Drug
Abuse Act of 1988.

The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the
Communications Act and specific FCC rules and policies. This summary does not
purport to be complete and is subject to the text of the Communications Act, the
FCC's rules and regulations, and the rulings of the FCC. You should refer to the
Communications Act and these FCC rules and rulings for further information
concerning the nature and extent of federal regulation of radio broadcast
stations.

A licensee's failure to observe the requirements of the Communications Act
or FCC rules and policies may result in the imposition of various sanctions,
including admonishment, fines, the grant of renewal terms of less than eight
years, the grant of a license with conditions or, for particularly egregious
violations, the denial of a license renewal application, the revocation of an
FCC license or the denial of FCC consent to acquire additional broadcast
properties.

Congress and the FCC have had under consideration, and may in the future
consider and adopt, new laws, regulations and policies regarding a wide variety
of matters that could, directly or indirectly, affect the operation, ownership
and profitability of SBS's radio stations, result in the loss of audience share
and advertising revenue for our radio broadcast stations or affect our ability
to acquire additional radio broadcast stations or finance these acquisitions.
Such matters may include:

- changes to the license authorization and renewal process;

- proposals to impose spectrum use or other fees on FCC licensees;

- auction of new broadcast licenses;

- changes to the FCC's equal employment opportunity regulations and other
matters relating to involvement of minorities and women in the
broadcasting industry;

- proposals to change rules relating to political broadcasting including
proposals to grant free air time to candidates, and other changes
regarding program content;

- proposals to restrict or prohibit the advertising of beer, wine and other
alcoholic beverages;

- technical and frequency allocation matters, including creation of a new
low power radio broadcast service;

- the implementation of digital audio broadcasting on both a satellite and
terrestrial basis;

- changes in broadcast cross-interest, multiple ownership, foreign
ownership, cross-ownership and ownership attribution policies;

- proposals to allow telephone companies to deliver audio and video
programming to homes in their service areas; and

- proposals to alter provisions of the tax laws affecting broadcast
operations and acquisitions.

We cannot predict what changes, if any, might be adopted, nor can we
predict what other matters might be considered in the future, nor can we judge
in advance what impact, if any, the implementation of any particular proposals
or changes might have on our business.

FCC LICENSES

The Communications Act provides that a broadcast station license may be
granted to any applicant if the public interest, convenience and necessity will
be served thereby, subject to

51
<PAGE> 58

certain limitations. In making licensing determinations, the FCC considers an
applicant's legal, technical, financial and other qualifications. The FCC grants
radio broadcast station licenses for specific periods of time and, upon
application, may renew them for additional terms. Under the Communications Act,
radio broadcast station licenses may be granted for a maximum term of eight
years.

Generally, the FCC renews radio broadcast licenses without a hearing upon a
finding that:

- the radio station has served the public interest, convenience and
necessity;

- there have been no serious violations by the licensee of the
Communications Act or FCC rules and regulations; and

- there have been no other violations by the licensee of the Communications
Act or FCC rules and regulations which, taken together, indicate a
pattern of abuse.

After considering these factors, the FCC may grant the license renewal
application with or without conditions, including renewal for a term less than
the maximum term otherwise permitted by law, or hold an evidentiary hearing.

In addition, the Communications Act authorizes the filing of petitions to
deny a license renewal application during specific periods of time after a
renewal application has been filed. Interested parties, including members of the
public, may use these petitions to raise issues concerning a renewal applicant's
qualifications. If a substantial and material question of fact concerning a
renewal application is raised by the FCC or other interested parties, or if for
any reason the FCC cannot determine that granting a renewal application would
serve the public interest, convenience and necessity, the FCC will hold an
evidentiary hearing on the application. If as a result of an evidentiary hearing
the FCC determines that the licensee has failed to meet the requirements
specified above and that no mitigating factors justify the imposition of a
lesser sanction, then the FCC may deny a license renewal application.
Historically, our licenses have been renewed without any conditions or sanctions
being imposed, but we cannot assure you that the licenses of each of our
stations will continue to be renewed or will continue to be renewed without
conditions or sanctions.

The FCC classifies each AM and FM radio station. An AM radio station
operates on either a clear channel, regional channel or local channel. A clear
channel is one on which AM radio stations are assigned to serve wide areas,
particularly at night.

The minimum and maximum facilities requirements for an FM radio station are
determined by its class. Possible FM class designations depend upon the
geographic zone in which the transmitter of the FM radio station is located. In
general, commercial FM radio stations are classified as follows, in order of
increasing power and antenna height: Class A, B1, C3, B, C2, C1 or C radio
stations. The FCC recently has proposed to divide Class C stations into two
subclasses based on antenna height. Stations not meeting the minimum height
requirement within a three-year transition period would be downgraded
automatically to the new Class C0 category.

Ownership Matters. The Communications Act requires prior approval of the
FCC for the assignment of a broadcast license or the transfer of control of a
corporation or other entity holding a license. In determining whether to approve
an assignment of a radio broadcast license or a transfer of control of a
broadcast licensee, the FCC considers, among other things:

- the financial and legal qualifications of the prospective assignee or
transferee, including compliance with FCC restrictions on non-U.S.
citizen or entity ownership and control;

52
<PAGE> 59

- compliance with FCC rules limiting the common ownership of attributable
interests in broadcast and newspaper properties;

- the history of compliance with FCC operating rules; and

- the character qualifications of the transferee or assignee and the
individuals or entities holding attributable interests in them.

Applications to the FCC for assignments and transfers are subject to petitions
in favor of denying the assignment and transfer by interested parties.

To obtain the FCC's prior consent to assign or transfer a broadcast
license, appropriate applications must be filed with the FCC. The application
must be placed on public notice for a period of 30 days during which petitions
to deny the application may be filed by interested parties, including members of
the public. Informal objections may be filed any time up until the FCC acts upon
the application. If the FCC grants an assignment or transfer application,
interested parties have 30 days from public notice of the grant to seek
reconsideration of that grant. The FCC usually has an additional ten days to set
aside such grant on its own motion. When ruling on an assignment or transfer
application, the FCC is prohibited from considering whether the public interest
might be served by an assignment or transfer to any party other than the
assignee or transferee specified in the application.

Under the Communications Act, a broadcast license may not be granted to or
held by any corporation that has more than 20% of its capital stock owned or
voted by non-U.S. citizens or entities or their representatives, by foreign
governments or their representatives, or by non-U.S. corporations. Furthermore,
the Communications Act provides that no FCC broadcast license may be granted to
or held by any corporation directly or indirectly controlled by any other
corporation of which more than 25% of its capital stock is owned of record or
voted by non-U.S. citizens or entities or their representatives, or foreign
governments or their representatives or by non-U.S. corporations, if the FCC
finds the public interest will be served by the refusal or revocation of such
license. These restrictions apply in modified form to other forms of business
organizations, including partnerships and limited liability companies. Thus, the
licenses for our stations could be revoked if more than 25% of our outstanding
capital stock is issued to or for the benefit of non-U.S. citizens.

The FCC generally applies its other broadcast ownership limits to
"attributable" interests held by an individual, corporation, partnership or
other association or entity, including limited liability companies. In the case
of a corporation holding broadcast licenses, the interests of officers,
directors and those who, directly or indirectly, have the right to vote five
percent or more of the stock of a licensee corporation are generally deemed
attributable interests, as are positions as an officer or director of a
corporate parent of a broadcasting licensee. The FCC treats all partnership
interests as attributable, except for those limited partnership interests that
under FCC policies are considered insulated from material involvement in the
management or operation of the media-related activities of the partnership. The
FCC currently treats limited liability companies like limited partnerships for
purposes of attribution. Stock interests held by insurance companies, mutual
funds, bank trust departments and certain other passive investors that hold
stock for investment purposes only become attributable with the ownership of ten
percent or more of the voting stock of the corporation holding broadcast
licenses.

To assess whether a voting stock interest in a direct or an indirect parent
corporation of a broadcast licensee is attributable, the FCC uses a "multiplier"
analysis in which non-controlling voting stock interests are deemed
proportionally reduced at each non-controlling link in a multi-

53
<PAGE> 60

corporation ownership chain. A time brokerage agreement with another radio
station in the same market creates an attributable interest in the brokered
radio station as well for purposes of the FCC's local radio station ownership
rules, if the agreement affects more than 15% of the brokered radio station's
weekly broadcast hours.

Debt instruments, non-voting stock, options and warrants for voting stock
that have not yet been exercised, insulated limited partnership interests where
the limited partner is not materially involved in the media-related activities
of the partnership, and minority voting stock interests in corporations where
there is a single holder of more than 50% of the outstanding voting stock whose
vote is sufficient to affirmatively direct the affairs of the corporation,
generally do not subject their holders to attribution. However, the FCC's rules
also specify other exceptions to these general principles for attribution. The
FCC is currently evaluating whether to:

- raise the benchmark for voting stock from five to ten percent;

- raise the benchmark for passive investors holding voting stock from ten
to twenty percent;

- continue the single 50% stockholder exception; and/or

- attribute non-voting stock or perhaps only when combined with other
rights such as voting shares or contractual relationships.

More recently, the FCC has solicited comment on proposed rules that would:

- treat an otherwise non-attributable ownership equity or debt interest in
a licensee as an attributable interest where the interest holder is a
program supplier or the owner of a broadcast station in the same market
and the equity and/or debt holding is greater than a specified benchmark,
and

- in some circumstances, treat the licensee of a broadcast station that
sells advertising time of another station in the same market pursuant to
a joint sales agreement as having an attributable interest in the station
whose advertising is being sold.

Communications Act and FCC rules generally restrict ownership, operation or
control of, or the common holding of attributable interests in:

- radio broadcast stations above certain limits servicing the same local
market;

- a radio broadcast station and a television broadcast station servicing
the same local market; and

- a radio broadcast station and a daily newspaper serving the same local
market.

These rules include specific signal contour overlap standards to determine
compliance, and the FCC defined market will not necessarily be the same market
used by Arbitron or other surveys, or for purposes of the HSR Act. Under these
"cross-ownership" rules, we, absent waivers, would not be permitted to own a
radio broadcast station and acquire an attributable interest in any daily
newspaper or television broadcast station, other than a low-powered television
station, in the same market where we then owned any radio broadcast station. Our
stockholders, officers or directors, absent a waiver, may not hold an
attributable interest in a daily newspaper or television broadcast station in
those same markets.

The FCC is currently reviewing the ban on common ownership of a radio
station and a daily newspaper in the same market. The FCC's rules provide for
the liberal grant of a waiver of the rule prohibiting common ownership of radio
and television stations in the same geographic market in the top 25 television
markets if specific conditions are satisfied, and the FCC will

54
<PAGE> 61

consider waivers in other markets under more restrictive standards. The FCC is
reviewing its ban on the common ownership of a radio station and a television
station or newspaper including extending the policy of liberal waivers of common
ownership of radio and television stations to the top 50 television markets.

Although current FCC nationwide radio broadcast ownership rules allow one
entity to own, control or hold attributable interests in an unlimited number of
FM radio stations and AM radio stations nationwide, the Communications Act and
the FCC's rules limit the number of radio broadcast stations in local markets in
which a single entity may own an attributable interest as follows:

- In a radio market with 45 or more commercial radio stations, a party may
own, operate or control up to eight commercial radio stations, not more
than five of which are in the same service (AM or FM).

- In a radio market with between 30 and 44 (inclusive) commercial radio
stations, a party may own, operate or control up to seven commercial
radio stations, not more than four of which are in the same service (AM
or FM).

- In a radio market with between 15 and 29 (inclusive) commercial radio
stations, a party may own, operate or control up to six commercial radio
stations, not more than four of which are in the same service (AM or FM).

- In a radio market with 14 or fewer commercial radio stations, a party may
own, operate or control up to five commercial radio stations, not more
than three of which are in the same service (AM or FM), except that a
party may not own, operate, or control more than 50 percent of the radio
stations in such market.

Because of these multiple and cross-ownership rules, if a stockholder,
officer or director of SBS holds an attributable interest in SBS, such
stockholder, officer or director may violate the FCC's rules if such person or
entity also holds or acquires an attributable interest in other television,
radio stations or daily newspapers, depending on their number and location. If
an attributable stockholder, officer or director of SBS violates any of these
ownership rules, we may be unable to obtain from the FCC one or more
authorizations needed to conduct our radio station business and may be unable to
obtain FCC consents for future acquisitions. As long as one person or entity
holds more than 50% of the voting power of the common stock of SBS where the
vote of such person or entity is sufficient to affirmatively direct the affairs
of SBS, another stockholder, unless serving as an officer and/or director,
generally would not hold an attributable interest in SBS. However, as described
above, the FCC is currently evaluating whether to continue the exception for a
single majority stockholder of more than 50% of a licensee's voting stock. As of
June 27, 1999, Raul Alarcon, Jr. held more than 50% of the total voting power of
our common stock.

Under its cross-interest policy, the FCC considers meaningful relationships
among competing media outlets that serve substantially the same area, even if
the ownership rules do not specifically prohibit the relationship. Under this
policy, the FCC may consider whether to prohibit one party from holding an
attributable interest and a substantial non-attributable interest (including
non-voting stock, limited partnership and limited liability company interests)
in a media outlet in the same market, or from entering into a joint venture or
having common key employees with competitors. The cross-interest policy does not
necessarily prohibit all of these interests, but requires that the FCC consider
whether, in a particular market, the meaningful relationships between
competitors could have a significant adverse effect upon economic

55
<PAGE> 62

competition and program diversity. In a rule making proceeding concerning the
attribution rules, the FCC has sought comment on, among other things, (1)
whether the cross-interest policy should be applied only in smaller markets, and
(2) whether non-equity financial relationships, such as debt, when combined with
multiple business relationships, such as local marketing agreements or joint
sales arrangements, raise concerns under the cross-interest policy.

Programming and Operations. The Communications Act requires broadcasters
to serve the public interest. A broadcast licensee is required to present
programming in response to community problems, needs and interests and to
maintain certain records demonstrating its responsiveness. The FCC will consider
complaints from listeners about a broadcast station's programming when it
evaluates the licensee's renewal application, but listeners' complaints also may
be filed and considered at any time. Stations also must pay regulatory and
application fees, and follow various FCC rules that regulate, among other
things, political advertising, the broadcast of obscene or indecent programming,
sponsorship identification, the broadcast of contests and lotteries and
technical operation.

The FCC requires that licensees not discriminate in hiring practices,
develop and implement programs designed to promote equal employment
opportunities and submit reports to the FCC on these matters annually and in
connection with each license renewal application.

The FCC rules also prohibit a broadcast licensee from simulcasting more
than 25% of its programming on another radio station in the same broadcast
service (that is, AM/AM or FM/FM). The simulcasting restriction applies if the
licensee owns both radio broadcast stations or owns one and programs the other
through a local marketing agreement, provided that the contours of the radio
stations overlap in a certain manner.

Local Marketing Agreements. Often radio stations enter into LMAs or time
brokerage agreements. These agreements take various forms. Separately owned and
licensed radio stations may agree to function cooperatively in programming,
advertising sales and other matters, subject to compliance with the antitrust
laws and the FCC's rules and policies, including the requirement that the
licensee of each radio station maintain independent control over the programming
and other operations of its own radio station.

Joint Sales Agreements. Over the past few years, a number of radio
stations have entered into cooperative arrangements commonly known as joint
sales agreements or JSAs. The FCC has determined that issues of joint
advertising sales should be left to enforcement by antitrust authorities, and
therefore does not generally regulate joint sales practices between stations.
Currently, stations for which another licensee sells time under a JSA are not
deemed by the FCC to be an attributable interest of that licensee. However, in
connection with its ongoing rulemaking proceedings concerning the attribution
rules, the FCC is considering whether JSAs should be considered attributable
interests or within the scope of the FCC's cross-interest policy, particularly
when JSAs contain provisions for the supply of programming services and/or other
elements typically associated with local marketing agreements.

RF Radiation. In 1985, the FCC adopted rules based on a 1982 American
National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard regarding human exposure to levels
of radio frequency (RF) radiation. These rules require applicants for renewal of
broadcast licenses or modification of existing licenses to inform the FCC at the
time of filing such applications whether an existing broadcast facility would
expose people to RF radiation in excess of certain limits. In 1992, ANSI adopted
a new standard for RF exposure that, in some respects, was more restrictive in
the amount of environmental RF exposure permitted. The FCC has since adopted
more restrictive

56
<PAGE> 63

radiation limits which became effective October 15, 1997, and which are based in
part on the revised ANSI standard.

Digital Audio Radio Service. The FCC has allocated spectrum to a new
technology, digital audio radio service (DARS), to deliver satellite-based audio
programming to a national or regional audience and issued regulations for a DARS
service in early 1997. The nationwide reach of satellite DARS could allow niche
programming aimed at diverse communities that SBS is targeting. Two companies
that hold licenses for authority to offer multiple channels of digital,
satellite-delivered S-Band aural services could compete with conventional
terrestrial radio broadcasting. The licensees will be permitted to sell
advertising and lease channels in these media. The FCC's rules require that
these licensees launch and begin operating at least one space station by 2001
and be fully operational by 2003.

Low Power Radio Broadcast Service. The FCC recently adopted a Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking seeking public comment on a proposal to establish two
classes of a low power radio service both of which would operate in the existing
FM radio band: a primary class with a maximum operating power of 1 kW and a
secondary class with a maximum power of 100 watts. These proposed low power
radio stations would have limited service areas of 8.8 miles and 3.5 miles,
respectively. Implementation of a low power radio service or microbroadcasting
would provide an additional audio programming service that could compete with
SBS's radio stations for listeners, but we cannot predict the effect upon SBS.

PROPERTIES

Our corporate headquarters is located in Miami, Florida. The types of
properties required to support each of our radio stations include offices,
broadcasting studios and antenna towers where broadcasting transmitters and
antenna equipment are located. We own the building housing the office and
studios in New York for WSKQ-FM and WPAT-FM, and in Los Angeles for KLAX-FM.
Additionally, we still own a building in Los Angeles that we previously used as
the office for our Los Angeles operations. We own the auxiliary transmitter site
for KLAX-FM in Long Beach, California and lease our other transmitter sites,
with lease terms that expire between 1999 and 2035, assuming all renewal options
are exercised. The studios and offices of our Miami and South Florida stations
are currently located in leased facilities with lease terms that respectively
expire in 2000 and 2012. See "Certain Relationships and Related Transactions."
We lease the office and studio facilities for our stations in Chicago, San
Antonio and Puerto Rico.

The transmitter sites for our stations are material to our overall
operations. Management believes that our properties are in good condition and
are suitable for our operations; however, we continually seek opportunities to
upgrade our properties. We own substantially all of the equipment used in our
radio broadcasting business.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

From time to time we are involved in litigation incidental to the conduct
of our business, such as contract matters and employee-related matters. We are
not currently a party to litigation which, in the opinion of management, is
likely to have a material adverse effect on our business.

ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS

We assigned the lease of the transmitter for WXLX-AM in Lyndhurst, New
Jersey, to the purchaser of the station. The transmitter is located on a former
landfill which ceased operations

57
<PAGE> 64

in the late 1960's. Although WXLX-AM has been sold, we retain potential exposure
relating to possible environmental liabilities relating to the transmitter site.
Because the lessee of the property is under a long-term lease, we may become
liable for costs associated with remediation of the site. We are unable to
assess the likelihood that any claim for remediation of the site will arise and
no amounts have been accrued in the consolidated financial statements relating
to this contingent liability.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Directors who are officers do not receive any additional compensation for
serving on our board of directors. All directors are reimbursed for their
out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with their service as directors.
We also maintain a directors' and officers' liability insurance policy for our
directors. See "Management -- Committees of the Board of Directors."

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS AND ARRANGEMENTS

In March 1997, we entered into a five-year employment agreement with Raul
Alarcon, Jr. pursuant to which Mr. Alarcon, Jr. serves as our Chief Executive
Officer and President. The agreement provides for a base salary of not less than
$1.3 million, which may be increased by the

61
<PAGE> 68

board of directors in its sole discretion. Under the terms of the agreement, Mr.
Alarcon, Jr. is paid a cash bonus equal to the sum of: (1) 2.5% of the dollar
increase in same station revenue in the aggregate for any fiscal year and (2)
5.0% of the dollar increase in same station broadcast cash flow for any fiscal
year. If Mr. Alarcon, Jr.'s employment is terminated by SBS, he will be entitled
to receive all accrued salary and bonuses to the date of termination plus his
salary and bonuses for the remainder of the term of his employment agreement.
Mr. Alarcon, Jr. also receives benefits, including use of automobiles and an
apartment in Manhattan. Pursuant to Mr. Alarcon, Jr.'s employment agreement, SBS
declared and paid a dividend to Mr. Alarcon Jr. in 1998 of $3.1 million.

OPTION PLAN

We intend to adopt an option plan designed to incentivize our present and
future executive, managerial and other key employees, directors and consultants
and subsidiaries through equity ownership. The option plan will provide for the
granting to participants of stock options and restricted stock awards as the
compensation committee of the board of directors, or such other committee of the
board of directors as the board of directors may designate, deems to be
consistent with the purposes of the option plan. An aggregate of
shares of Class A Common Stock have been reserved for issuance
under the option plan. The option plan will afford SBS latitude in tailoring
incentive compensation for the retention of key personnel, to support corporate
and business objectives, and to anticipate and respond to a changing business
environment and competitive compensation practices.

The compensation committee has exclusive discretion to select the
participants, to determine the type, size and terms of each award, to modify the
terms of awards, to determine when awards will be granted and paid, and to make
all other determinations which it deems necessary or desirable in the
interpretation and administration of the option plan. The option plan terminates
ten years from the date that it was approved and adopted by the stockholders of
SBS. Generally, a participant's rights and interest under the option plan are
not transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.

Options, which include non-qualified stock options and incentive stock
options, are rights to purchase a specified number of shares of Class A Common
Stock at a price fixed by the compensation committee. The option price may be
less than, equal to or greater than the fair market value of the underlying
shares of Class A Common Stock, but in no event will the exercise price of an
incentive stock option be less than the fair market value on the date of grant.

Options will expire no later than ten years after the date on which they
are granted. Options will become exercisable at such times and in such
installments as the compensation committee shall determine. Upon termination of
a participant's employment with SBS, options that are not exercisable will be
forfeited immediately and options that are exercisable will be forfeited on the
thirtieth day following such termination unless exercised by the participant.
Payment of the option price must be made in full at the time of exercise in such
form (including, but not limited to, cash or common stock of SBS) as the
compensation committee may determine.

Stock awards are grants of restricted Class A Common Stock at no cost to
participants and are generally subject to vesting provisions as determined by
the compensation committee. Upon termination of a participant's employment with
SBS, awards that are not vested will be forfeited immediately.

62
<PAGE> 69

In the event of a reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock
dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation, distribution of assets,
or any other change in the corporate structure of shares of SBS, the
compensation committee will make any adjustments it deems appropriate in the
number and kind of shares reserved for issuance upon the exercise of options and
vesting of grants under the option plan and in the exercise price of outstanding
options.

LIMITATIONS ON DIRECTORS' AND OFFICERS' LIABILITY

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation has a
provision which limits the liability of directors to us to the maximum extent
permitted by Delaware law. The second amended and restated certificate of
incorporation specifies that our directors will not be personally liable for
monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director. This limitation
does not apply to: (a) any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to us or our
stockholders; (b) acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve
intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law; (c) unlawful payments of
dividends or unlawful stock repurchases or redemptions as provided in Section
174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law; or (d) any transaction from which
the director denied an improper personal benefit.

Additionally, insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons
of SBS pursuant to this prospectus, we have been advised that in the opinion of
the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the
Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

Our by-laws provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and
authorize indemnification for officers (and others) in the manner, under the
circumstances and to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General
Corporation Law. This generally authorizes indemnification as to all expenses
incurred or imposed as a result of actions, suits or proceedings if the
indemnified parties act in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believe to
be in or not opposed to the best interests of SBS. We believe that these
provisions are necessary or useful to attract and retain qualified persons as
directors and officers.

We intend to acquire insurance for the benefit of our directors and
officers.

There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director or
officer as to which indemnification is being sought.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

See "Committees of the Board of Directors."

We lease a two-bedroom furnished condominium apartment in midtown Manhattan
from Mr. Alarcon, Jr. for a monthly rent of $9,000. The lease commenced in
August 1987 and will expire in August 2007. During fiscal years 1999 and 1998,
we renovated the apartment and incurred approximately $0.2 million in renovation
expenses. Generally, the apartment is used by Mr. Alarcon Jr. while on SBS
business in New York. We believe that the lease for this apartment is at the
market rate.

For the year ended September 27, 1998, SBS paid operating expenses
aggregating $0.1 million for a boat owned by CMQ Radio, an entity owned equally
by Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. The boat is used by SBS for business
entertainment. For the year ended September 27, 1998, the amount paid by SBS for
our use of the boat owned by CMQ Radio was comparable to amounts we would have
paid had we leased the boat from an unaffiliated party. In connection with this
offering, we intend to discontinue our arrangement with respect to this boat.

In connection with Mr. Alarcon, Jr.'s relocation from the New York
metropolitan area to the Miami metropolitan area, SBS advanced to Mr. Alarcon,
Jr. an aggregate of $1.1 million to pay for various expenses. On July 16, 1997,
Mr. Alarcon, Jr. executed a promissory note to SBS for the principal amount of
$1.1 million to evidence these advances. The note was payable on demand and bore
interest at a rate of 7% per annum. SBS declared and paid a dividend in 1998 and
applied some of the proceeds of such dividend, which were otherwise payable to
Mr. Alarcon, Jr., to the repayment in full of this promissory note.

Effective July 1993, Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. executed
promissory notes to SBS for the principal amounts of $0.5 million and $1.6
million, respectively. These promissory notes evidenced loans made by SBS to
Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. over several prior years. The notes were
to mature in 2001 and bore interest at the rate of 6% percent per annum until
July 19, 1994 and after that at the lesser of 9% percent per annum or the prime
rate charged by the Chase Manhattan Bank, N.A. Interest on the unpaid principal
amount of the notes was payable annually. In December 1995, SBS exchanged these
promissory notes for amended and restated notes in the principal amounts of $0.6
million and $1.9 million due from Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr.,
respectively. The amended and restated notes bear interest at the rate of 6.36%
per annum, and mature on December 30, 2025, and the interest is payable in 30
equal annual installments of $43,570 and $143,158, respectively, on December
30th of each year starting December 30, 1996. As of June 27, 1999, $0.6 million
and $1.9 million, plus accrued and unpaid interest of $0.1 million and $0.4
million to date, was outstanding, respectively, on these promissory notes. In
connection with the Class A Common Stock offering, Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and
Alarcon, Jr. intend to pay all remaining amounts outstanding under these notes
using the proceeds they receive as selling stockholders in this offering.

In 1992, Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. acquired a building in Coral
Gables, Florida, for the purpose of housing the studios of WCMQ-AM and WCMQ-FM.
In June 1992, SBS-Florida, a subsidiary of SBS, entered into a 20-year net lease
with Messrs. Alarcon, Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. for the Coral Gables building which
provides for a base monthly rent of $9,000. Effective June 1, 1998, the lease on
this building was assigned to SBS Realty Corp., a realty management company
owned by Messrs. Alarcon Sr. and Alarcon, Jr. This building currently houses the
offices and studios of all of the Miami stations. The lease on the stations'
previous studios expired in October 1993, was for less than half the space of
the stations' present studios

65
<PAGE> 72

and had a monthly rental of approximately $7,500. Based upon our prior lease for
studio space, we believe that the lease for the current studio is at market
rates.

In 1992, Mr. Alarcon, Jr. organized Nuestra Telefonica, Inc., a New York
corporation, to operate long distance telephone service in Spanish aimed at the
Hispanic population in the markets served by our radio stations. In February
1993, Nuestra Telefonica entered into an access agreement with a common carrier
and commenced operations. Nuestra Telefonica advertised its Spanish-language
long distance telephone service on our radio stations in Los Angeles and New
York and purchased this air time at standard station rates. Since early 1994,
Nuestra Telefonica has not utilized any air time on our radio stations. As of
September 28, 1997 and September 27, 1998, Nuestra Telefonica owed SBS $0.4
million related to unpaid air time and $0.3 million related to certain expenses
paid by SBS on Nuestra Telefonica's behalf. The amounts due are recorded on our
books as a receivable and due from related party asset, respectively. Mr.
Alarcon, Jr. has personally guaranteed the payment of $0.5 million of Nuestra
Telefonica's obligations to SBS. Mr. Alarcon, Jr. is Nuestra Telefonica's
Chairman and majority shareholder. Joseph A. Garcia is Nuestra Telefonica's
President and a minority shareholder. Nuestra Telefonica is no longer an
operating entity and, therefore, upon the completion of the Class A Common Stock
offering we will forgive the loans and cancel the guarantees described above.

Mr. Grimalt's son is employed by SBS as an operations manager. He was paid
$128,345 and a bonus of $5,000 for the fiscal year ended September 27, 1998. Mr.
Alarcon Jr.'s uncle is currently employed by us as an operations manager and his
salary is $76,200.

DESCRIPTION OF OTHER INDEBTEDNESS

SENIOR CREDIT FACILITY

Upon completion of this offering, we intend to enter into a senior credit
facility arranged by Lehman Commercial Paper Inc., an affiliate of Lehman
Brothers Inc. The documentation relating to the facility has not been completed.
Accordingly, the description below is a preliminary description of the principal
terms of the senior credit facility and is subject to, and qualified in its
entirety by reference to, the definitive documentation.

The senior credit facility will consist of a (1) $ million
six-year revolving credit facility maturing in 2005, and (2) $
million six-year delayed draw ( months to draw) term loan facility maturing in
2005. The senior credit facility will be available to refinance existing debt,
finance working capital, issue letters of credit, make permitted acquisitions
and for other approved general corporate purposes. The senior credit facility
will contain customary covenants which, among other things will require us to
maintain specified financial ratios such as debt to EBITDA, senior debt to
EBITDA, minimum interest coverage, minimum fixed interest coverage and limits on
capital expenditures. Subject to certain exceptions, we will be required to
repay some or all of the amount outstanding under the senior credit facility
upon our issuance of debt or equity, asset sales and certain excess cash flow.
The senior credit facility will be secured by our assets and those of our
subsidiaries, other than those subsidiaries owning FCC licenses, and the stock
of our subsidiaries owning FCC licenses. Our obligations under the senior credit
facility will be guaranteed by our direct and indirect subsidiaries.

12 1/2% NOTES

The following summary of our 12 1/2% notes does not purport to be complete
and is subject to the terms of the indenture governing the 12 1/2% notes.

In June 1994, we issued approximately $107.1 million of 12 1/2% notes due
2002 ($93.9 million of which are outstanding as of June 27, 1999), under the
Indenture dated as of June 29, 1994 among SBS, the guarantors named in the
indenture, which were the subsidiaries of SBS, and IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust
Company, as trustee. The 12 1/2% notes bear cash interest at a rate of 12 1/2%
per annum on their principal amount until maturity. The 12 1/2% notes are senior
unsecured obligations of SBS. The 12 1/2% notes rank senior to all future
subordinated indebtedness of SBS. The 12 1/2% notes are unconditionally
guaranteed, on a senior basis, as to the payment of principal, premium, if any,
and interest, jointly and severally, by all of the active direct and indirect
subsidiaries of SBS. The 12 1/2% notes are not redeemable. There are no
mandatory redemption requirements with respect to the 12 1/2% notes.

In the event of a change of control of SBS, as defined in the indenture
governing the 12 1/2% notes, we are required to make an offer to purchase all of
the outstanding 12 1/2% notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal
amount of the 12 1/2% notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 12 1/2% notes
indenture restricts, among other things, the incurrence of additional
indebtedness, the payment of dividends and distributions, the creation of liens,
the issuance of stock of subsidiaries, transactions with affiliates, the making
of certain investments, asset sales, merger or consolidation of SBS and its
subsidiaries or the transfer of their assets, subject to certain exceptions.

67
<PAGE> 74

11% NOTES

The following summary of the 11% notes does not purport to be complete and
is subject to the terms of the indenture governing the 11% notes.

In March 1997, we issued $75.0 million of 11% notes due 2004 under the
Indenture dated as of March 15, 1997 among SBS, the guarantors named in the
indenture, which were the subsidiaries of SBS, and IBJ Whitehall Bank & Trust
Company, as trustee. The 11% notes bear cash interest at a rate of 11% per annum
on their principal amount until maturity. The 11% notes are senior unsecured
obligations of SBS. The 11% notes rank senior to all future subordinated
indebtedness of SBS. The 11% notes are unconditionally guaranteed, on a senior
basis, as to the payment of principal, premium, if any, and interest, jointly
and severally, by all of the active direct and indirect subsidiaries of SBS. The
11% notes are redeemable at our option as follows: (1) any time on or after
March 15, 2001 we may redeem the 11% notes at 105.50% of their principal amount;
(2) from and after March 15, 2002 we may redeem the 11% notes at 102.75% of
their principal amount; and (3) from and after March 15, 2003 we may redeem the
11% notes at 100% of their principal amount plus, in each case, accrued and
unpaid interest. There are no mandatory redemption requirements with respect to
the 11% notes.

In the event of a change of control, as defined in the indenture governing
the 11% notes, we are required to make an offer to purchase all of the
outstanding 11% notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount
of the 11% notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest. The 11% notes indenture
restricts, among other things, the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the
payment of dividends and distributions, the creation of liens, the issuance of
stock of subsidiaries, transactions with affiliates, the making of certain
investments, asset sales, [asset sales,] merger or consolidation of SBS and its
subsidiaries or the transfer of their assets, subject to certain exceptions.

DESCRIPTION OF NOTES

You can find the definitions of certain terms used in this description
under the subheading "Certain Definitions." In this description, the words
"Company" and "SBS" refer only to Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. and not to
any of its subsidiaries. The term "Notes" refers to the SBS senior subordinated
notes being offered hereby.

The Notes will be issued by SBS under the Indenture dated ,
1999 (the "Indenture") among itself, the Guarantors (described under the section
entitled "Subsidiary Guarantees") and , as trustee (the
"Trustee"). The terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and
those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of
1939, as amended (the "Trust Indenture Act").

The following description is a summary of the material provisions of the
Indenture. It does not restate the Indenture in its entirety. Because this is a
summary, we urge you to read the Indenture and the relevant portions of the
Trust Indenture Act because they, and not this description, define your rights
as holders of the notes. We have filed copies of the Indenture as an exhibit to
the registration statement which includes this prospectus.

GENERAL

The Notes are:

- general unsecured obligations of SBS;

- subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Debt
of SBS;

- pari passu in the right of payment with any future senior subordinated
indebtedness of SBS; and

- unconditionally guaranteed by the Guarantors.

As of June 27, 1999, after giving pro forma effect to the issuance of the
Notes, the consummation of the proposed equity offering and the application of
the proceeds from the offerings, SBS would have had approximately $ million of
Senior Debt outstanding. The Indenture does not limit the aggregate amount of
debt securities that SBS may issue thereunder. The Indenture provides that SBS
may issue debt securities from time to time, in one or more series, each in an
aggregate principal amount authorized by SBS prior to issuance. The Indenture
permits SBS to incur additional debt, including additional Senior Debt, subject
to certain restrictions. See "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness
and Issuance of Preferred Stock."

PRINCIPAL, MATURITY AND INTEREST

SBS will issue Notes in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of
$1,000. The Notes will mature on , 2009.

Interest on the Notes will accrue at the rate of % per annum and will
be payable semi-annually in arrears on and of each year,
commencing on , 2000. SBS will make each interest payment to the
holders of record of these Notes on the immediately preceding
and .

Interest on the Notes will accrue from the date of original issuance or, if
interest has already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid.
Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve
30-day months.

<PAGE> 76

METHODS OF RECEIVING PAYMENTS ON THE NOTES

If a holder of a Note has given wire transfer instructions to SBS, SBS will
make all principal, premium and interest payments on those Notes in accordance
with those instructions. All other payments on these Notes will be made at the
office or agency of the Paying Agent and Registrar within the City and State of
New York unless SBS elects to make interest payments by check mailed to the
holders at their address set forth in the register of holders.

SUBORDINATION

The payment of principal, premium and interest on the Notes will be
subordinated to the prior payment in full of all Senior Debt of SBS.

The holders of Senior Debt of SBS will be entitled to receive payment in
full of all Obligations due in respect of such Senior Debt -- including interest
after the commencement of any such proceeding at the rate specified in the
applicable Senior Debt -- before the holders of Notes will be entitled to
receive any payment with respect to the Notes. However, holders of Notes may
receive Permitted Junior Securities and payments made from the trust described
under "-- Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance" if any distribution to SBS's
creditors occurs:

(1) in a liquidation or dissolution of SBS;

(2) in a bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, receivership or
similar proceeding relating to SBS or its property;

(3) in an assignment for the benefit of creditors; or

(4) in any marshaling of SBS's assets or liabilities.

SBS also may not make any payment in respect of the Notes except in
Permitted Junior Securities or from the trust described under the caption
"-- Legal Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance," if:

(1) a payment default on any Designated Senior Debt occurs and is
continuing beyond any applicable grace period; or

(2) any other default occurs and is continuing with respect to any
Designated Senior Debt that permits holders of that Designated Senior Debt
to accelerate its maturity and the Trustee receives a notice of such
default (a "Payment Blockage Notice") from SBS or the holders of such
Designated Senior Debt.

Payments on the Notes may and must be resumed:

(1) in the case of a payment default, upon the date on which such
default is cured or waived or has ceased to exist or such Designated Senior
Debt has been discharged or repaid in full; and

(2) in case of a nonpayment default, the earlier of the date on which
such nonpayment default is cured or waived or 179 days after the date on
which the applicable Payment Blockage Notice is received or has ceased to
exist or such Designated Senior Debt has been discharged or repaid in full,
unless the maturity of any Designated Senior Debt has been accelerated.

No new period of payment blockage may be commenced unless and until 360
days have elapsed since the effectiveness of the immediately prior Payment
Blockage Notice. No

70
<PAGE> 77

nonpayment default that existed or was continuing on the date of delivery of any
Payment Blockage Notice to the Trustee shall be, or be made, the basis for a
subsequent Payment Blockage Notice unless such default has been cured or waived.

SBS must promptly notify holders of Senior Debt if payment of the Notes is
accelerated because of an Event of Default.

As a result of the subordination provisions described above, in the event
of a liquidation or insolvency, holders of Notes may recover less than creditors
of SBS who are holders of Senior Debt. See "Risk
Factors -- Subordination -- Your right to receive payments on these notes is
junior to our existing indebtedness and possibly all of our future borrowings."

SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES

Each of SBS's current and future domestic Restricted Subsidiaries (the
"Guarantors"), except for the Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, will jointly and
severally guarantee SBS's obligations under the Notes (the "Subsidiary
Guarantees"). See "Risk Factors -- Substantial Debt -- Our substantial level of
debt could limit our ability to grow and compete." Each Subsidiary Guarantee
will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future Senior Debt
of such Guarantor. The Indenture will permit the Guarantors to incur additional
indebtedness, including additional Senior Debt, subject to certain restrictions.
See "-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock."

A Guarantor may not consolidate with or merge with or into, whether or not
such Guarantor is the surviving Person, another corporation, Person or entity
unless:

(1) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger, if other than such Guarantor, assumes all the obligations of such
Guarantor pursuant to a supplemental indenture reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee under the Notes and the Indenture;

(2) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or
Event of Default exists; and

(3) SBS would be permitted by virtue of SBS's pro forma Debt to Cash
Flow Ratio, immediately after giving effect to such transaction, to incur
at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Cash Flow
Ratio test set forth in the covenant described below under the caption
"-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock."

The Subsidiary Guarantee of a Guarantor will be released:

(1) in connection with any sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the assets of that Guarantor, including by way of
merger or consolidation, if SBS applies the Net Proceeds of that sale or
other disposition, in accordance with the applicable provisions of the
Indenture; or

(2) in connection with any sale of all of the capital stock of a
Guarantor, if SBS applies the Net Proceeds of that sale in accordance with
the applicable provisions of the Indenture.

OPTIONAL REDEMPTION

Before , 2002, SBS may, on any one or more occasions, redeem up
to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of Notes originally issued under the
Indenture at a redemption price

71
<PAGE> 78

of % of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, to the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds of an offering of common
equity of SBS, other than Disqualified Stock; provided that:

(1) at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
originally issued in the Offering remain outstanding immediately after the
occurrence of each such redemption, excluding Notes held by SBS and its
Subsidiaries; and

(2) each such redemption shall occur within 75 days after the date of
the closing of any such offering of common equity of SBS.

Except pursuant to the preceding paragraph, SBS will not be able to redeem
the Notes prior to , 2004.

After , 2004, SBS may redeem all or a part of the Notes upon not
less than 30 nor more than 60 days' notice, at the redemption prices, expressed
as percentages of principal amount, set forth below, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, thereon to the applicable redemption date, if redeemed during
the twelve-month period beginning on of the years indicated
below:

<TABLE>

2004........................................................ %
2005........................................................ %
2006........................................................ %
2007 and thereafter......................................... 100.000%
</TABLE>

SELECTION AND NOTICE

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee
will select Notes for redemption in compliance with the requirements of the
principal national securities exchange, if any, on which the Notes are listed.
If the Notes are not so listed, the Trustee will make the selection of Notes for
redemption on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such method as the Trustee shall
deem fair and appropriate. No Notes of $1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part.
Notices of redemption shall be mailed by first class mail at least 30 but not
more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of Notes to be
redeemed at its registered address. Notices of redemption may not be
conditional.

If any Note is to be redeemed in part only, the notice of redemption that
relates to such Note shall state the portion of the principal amount thereof to
be redeemed. A new Note in principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion
thereof will be issued in the name of the holder thereof upon cancellation of
the original Note. Notes called for redemption become due on the date fixed for
redemption. On and after the redemption date, interest ceases to accrue on Notes
or portions of them called for redemption.

MANDATORY REDEMPTION

Except as set forth below under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option of
Holders," SBS is not required to make mandatory redemption or sinking fund
payments with respect to the Notes.

72
<PAGE> 79

REPURCHASE AT THE OPTION OF HOLDERS

Change Of Control

If a Change of Control occurs, SBS will make an offer (a "Change of Control
Offer") to each holder of Notes to repurchase all or any part, equal to $1,000
or an integral multiple thereof, of such holder's Notes. In the Change of
Control Offer, SBS will offer payment in cash equal to 101% of the principal
amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of
purchase (the "Change of Control Payment"). Within ten days following a Change
of Control, SBS will mail a notice to each holder describing the transaction or
transactions that constitute the Change of Control and offering to repurchase
Notes on the date specified in such notice, which date shall be no earlier than
30 days and no later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed (the
"Change of Control Payment Date"), pursuant to the procedures required by the
Indenture and described in such notice. SBS will comply with the requirements of
Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws and regulations
thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection
with the repurchase of the Notes as a result of a Change of Control.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, SBS will, to the extent lawful:

(1) accept for payment all Notes or portions thereof properly tendered
pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(2) deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of
Control Payment in respect of all Notes or portions thereof so tendered;
and

(3) deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Notes so
accepted together with an Officers' Certificate stating the aggregate
principal amount of Notes or portions thereof being purchased by SBS.

The Paying Agent will promptly mail to each holder of Notes so tendered the
Change of Control Payment for such Notes, and the Trustee will promptly
authenticate and mail, or cause to be transferred by book entry, to each holder
a new Note equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Notes
surrendered, if any; provided that each such new Note will be in a principal
amount of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof.

The provisions described above that require SBS to make a Change of Control
Offer following a Change of Control will be applicable whether or not any other
provisions of the Indenture are applicable. Except as described above with
respect to a Change of Control, the Indenture does not contain provisions that
permit the holders of the Notes to require SBS to repurchase or redeem the Notes
in the event of a takeover, recapitalization or similar transaction.

The Senior Credit Facility prohibits SBS from purchasing any Notes
following a Change of Control and provides that certain change of control events
with respect to SBS would constitute a default thereunder. Any other future
credit agreements or other agreements relating to Senior Debt to which SBS
becomes a party may contain similar restrictions. If a Change of Control occurs
at a time when SBS is prohibited from purchasing Notes, SBS could seek the
consent of its lenders to the purchase of Notes or could attempt to refinance
the borrowings that contain such prohibition. If SBS does not obtain such a
consent or repay such borrowings, SBS will remain prohibited from purchasing
Notes. SBS's failure to purchase tendered Notes following a Change of Control
would constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture which, in turn, is
expected to constitute as default under the Senior Credit Facility. In such
circumstances, the

73
<PAGE> 80

subordination provisions in the Indenture would likely restrict payments to the
holders of Notes. See "-- Subordination."

SBS will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a Change of
Control if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the
times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the
Indenture applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by SBS and purchases all
Notes validly tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer.

ASSET SALES

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
consummate an Asset Sale unless:

(1) SBS or the Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, receives
consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the fair
market value (as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of SBS
or such Subsidiary) of the assets or Equity Interests issued or sold or
otherwise disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration therefor received by SBS or such
Restricted Subsidiary is in the form of cash. For purposes of this
provision, each of the following shall be deemed cash:

(a) any liabilities, as shown on SBS's or such Restricted
Subsidiary's most recent balance sheet, of SBS or such Restricted
Subsidiary, other than contingent liabilities and liabilities that are
by their terms subordinated to the Notes or any guarantee thereof, that
are assumed by the transferee of any such assets pursuant to a customary
novation agreement that releases SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary from
further liability; and

(b) any securities, notes or other obligations received by SBS or
such Restricted Subsidiary from such transferee that are converted by
SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary into cash, to the extent of the cash
received, within 90 days following the closing of such Asset Sale.

However, SBS and its Restricted Subsidiaries will be permitted to
consummate an Asset Sale without complying with the preceding paragraph if:

(1) SBS or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be,
receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the
fair market value of the assets or other property sold, issued or otherwise
disposed of; and

(2) at least 75% of the consideration for such Asset Sale constitutes
a controlling interest in a Permitted Business, long-term assets used or
useful in a Permitted Business and/or cash or Cash Equivalents; provided
that any cash or Cash Equivalents received by SBS or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries in connection with any Asset Sale permitted to be consummated
under this paragraph shall constitute Net Proceeds subject to the
provisions of the next paragraph.

Within 365 days of the receipt of any Net Proceeds from an Asset Sale, SBS
may apply such Net Proceeds, at its option:

(1) to repay Senior Debt;

(2) to acquire a controlling interest in another Permitted Business;
and

74
<PAGE> 81

(3) to make a capital expenditure or to acquire long-term assets that
are used or useful in a Permitted Business.

Pending the final application of any such Net Proceeds, SBS may temporarily
reduce Senior Debt or otherwise invest such Net Proceeds in any manner that is
not prohibited by the Indenture.

Any Net Proceeds from Asset Sales that are not applied or invested as
provided in the preceding paragraph will constitute "Excess Proceeds." When the
aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $10 million, SBS will be required to
make an offer to all holders of Notes and all holders of other pari passu
Indebtedness containing provisions similar to those set forth in the Indenture
with respect to offers to purchase or redeem such other pari passu Indebtedness
with the proceeds of sales of assets (an "Asset Sale Offer"). The offer price in
any Asset Sale Offer will be equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus
accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase and will be paid in
cash. If any Excess Proceeds remain after consummation of an Asset Sale Offer,
SBS may use such Excess Proceeds for any purpose not otherwise prohibited by the
Indenture. If the aggregate principal amount of Notes and such other pari passu
Indebtedness surrendered by holders thereof exceeds the amount of Excess
Proceeds, the Trustee shall select the Notes and such other pari passu
Indebtedness to be purchased on a pro rata basis. Upon completion of an Asset
Sale Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds shall be reset at zero.

CERTAIN COVENANTS

Restricted Payments

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly:

(1) declare or pay any dividend or make any other payment or
distribution on account of SBS's or any of its Restricted Subsidiary's
Equity Interests, including, without limitation, any payment in connection
with any merger or consolidation involving SBS or any Restricted
Subsidiary, or to any direct or indirect holders of SBS's Equity Interests
in their capacity as such, other than dividends or distributions payable in
Equity Interests, other than Disqualified Stock, of SBS to SBS or any
Restricted Subsidiary of SBS;

(2) purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value,
including, without limitation, in connection with any merger or
consolidation involving SBS, any Equity Interests of SBS or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries or any direct or indirect parent of SBS, other than
any such Equity Interests owned by SBS or any Restricted Subsidiary of SBS;

(3) make any payment on or with respect to, or purchase, redeem,
defease or otherwise acquire or retire for value any Indebtedness of SBS or
any Restricted Subsidiary that is subordinated to the Notes or any
guarantee of the Notes, except a payment of interest or principal at Stated
Maturity; or

(4) make any Restricted Investment, all such payments and other
actions set forth in clauses (1) through (4) above being collectively
referred to as "Restricted Payments";

unless, at the time of and after giving effect to such Restricted Payment:

(1) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof;

75
<PAGE> 82

(2) SBS would, at the time of such Restricted Payment and after giving
pro forma effect thereto as if such Restricted Payment had been made at the
beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, have been permitted to
incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to
Cash Flow Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the covenant
described below under caption "--Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock"; and

(3) such Restricted Payment, together with the aggregate amount of all
other Restricted Payments made by SBS and its Restricted Subsidiaries after
the date of the Indenture, excluding Restricted Payments permitted by
clauses (2), (3) and (4) of the next paragraph, is less than the sum,
without duplication, of:

(a) an amount equal to the Consolidated Cash Flow of SBS for the
period (taken as one accounting period) from the beginning of the first
fiscal quarter commencing after the date of the Indenture to the end of
SBS's most recently ended full fiscal quarter for which financial
statements have been filed with the Commission (the "Basket Period")
less the product of 1.4 times the Consolidated Interest Expense of SBS
for the Basket Period; plus

(b) 100% of the aggregate net cash proceeds received by SBS as a
contribution to its common equity capital or from the issue or sale
since the date of the Indenture of Equity Interests of SBS, other than
Disqualified Stock, or from the issue or sale of Disqualified Stock or
debt securities of SBS that have been converted into such Equity
Interests, other than Equity Interests, or Disqualified Stock or
convertible debt securities, sold to a Subsidiary of SBS; plus

(c) to the extent that any Restricted Investment that was made
after date of the Indenture is sold for cash or otherwise liquidated or
repaid for cash, the lesser of (i) the cash return of capital with
respect to such Restricted Investment, less the cost of disposition, if
any, and (ii) the initial amount of such Restricted Investment.

The preceding provisions will not prohibit:

(1) the payment of any dividend within 60 days after its date of
declaration, if at the date of declaration such payment would have complied
with the provisions of the Indenture;

(2) the redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other
acquisition of any Equity Interests of SBS or subordinated Indebtedness of
SBS or any Guarantor in exchange for, or out of the net cash proceeds of
the substantially concurrent sale, other than to a Subsidiary of SBS, of
other Equity Interests of SBS, other than any Disqualified Stock; provided
that the amount of any such net cash proceeds that are utilized for any
such redemption, repurchase, retirement, defeasance or other acquisition
shall be excluded from clause (3)(b) of the preceding paragraph; and
provided further that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing immediately after such transaction;

(3) the defeasance, redemption, repurchase or other acquisition of
subordinated Indebtedness with the net cash proceeds from an incurrence of
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that no Default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing immediately after such
transaction;

(4) the payment of any dividend by a Restricted Subsidiary of SBS to
the holders of its Equity Interests on a pro rata basis;

76
<PAGE> 83

(5) the repurchase, redemption or other acquisition or retirement for
value of any Equity Interests of SBS or any Restricted Subsidiary of SBS
held by any member of SBS's -- or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries' -- management or board of directors pursuant to any
management equity subscription agreement, stock option agreement or other
similar agreement; provided that the aggregate price paid for all such
repurchased, redeemed, acquired or retired Equity Interests shall not
exceed $5 million (excluding for purposes of calculating such amounts
during any period, loans incurred to finance the purchase of such Equity
Interests that are repaid contemporaneously) in any twelve-month period and
no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing
immediately after such transaction;

(6) repurchases of stock deemed to have occurred by virtue of the
exercise of stock options; and

(7) other Restricted Payments in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5
million in any twelve-month period so long as no default or Event of
Default shall have occurred and be continuing.

The amount of all Restricted Payments, other than cash, shall be the fair
market value on the date of the Restricted Payment of the asset(s) or securities
proposed to be transferred or issued by SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary, as
the case may be, pursuant to the Restricted Payment. The Board of Directors
shall determine in good faith the fair market value of any non-cash Restricted
Payment. The Board of Directors' resolution with respect thereto shall be
delivered to the Trustee. Not later than the date of making any Restricted
Payment, SBS shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate stating that
such Restricted Payment is permitted and setting forth the basis upon which any
calculations required by the covenant "Restricted Payments" were computed.

The Board of Directors may designate any Restricted Subsidiary to be an
Unrestricted Subsidiary if such designation would not cause a Default. For
purposes of making such determination, the aggregate fair market value of all
outstanding Investments by SBS and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the Subsidiary
so designated will be deemed to be a Restricted Payment at the time of such
designation and will reduce the amount available for Restricted Payments under
the first paragraph of this covenant. Such designation will only be permitted if
such Restricted Payment would be permitted at such time and if such Subsidiary
otherwise meets the definition of an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

Any such designation by the Board of Directors shall be evidenced to the
Trustee by filing with the Trustee a certified copy of the Board Resolution
giving effect to such designation and an Officers' Certificate certifying that
such designation complied with the foregoing conditions. If, at any time, any
Unrestricted Subsidiary would fail to meet the definition of an Unrestricted
Subsidiary, it shall thereafter cease to be an Unrestricted Subsidiary for
purposes of the Indenture. Any Indebtedness of such Subsidiary shall be deemed
to be incurred by a Restricted Subsidiary of SBS as of such date, and, if such
Indebtedness is not permitted to be incurred as of such date under the covenant
described under the caption "-- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock," SBS shall be in default of such covenant. The Board of
Directors of SBS may at any time designate any Unrestricted Subsidiary to be a
Restricted Subsidiary. However, such designation shall be deemed to be an
incurrence of Indebtedness by a Restricted

77
<PAGE> 84

Subsidiary of SBS of any outstanding Indebtedness of such Unrestricted
Subsidiary and such designation shall only be permitted if:

(1) such Indebtedness is permitted under the covenant described under
the caption "-- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred
Stock," calculated on a pro forma basis as if such designation had occurred
at the beginning of the four-quarter reference period; and

(2) no Default or Event of Default would be in existence immediately
following such designation.

Incurrence Of Indebtedness And Issuance Of Preferred Stock

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise
become directly or indirectly liable, contingently or otherwise, with respect to
(collectively, "incur") any Indebtedness, including Acquired Debt, and SBS will
not issue any shares of Disqualified Stock and will not permit any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries to issue any shares of preferred stock; provided, that,
if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, SBS may incur
Indebtedness, including Acquired Debt, or issue shares of Disqualified Stock and
the Guarantors may issue shares of preferred stock if, SBS's Debt to Cash Flow
Ratio at such time after giving pro forma effect to such incurrence or issuance
as of such date and to the use of the proceeds therefrom as if the same had
occurred at the beginning of the most recently ended four full fiscal quarter
period of SBS for which internal financial statements are available, would have
been no greater than 7.0 to 1.0.

So long as no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would be
caused thereby, the preceding paragraph will not apply to the incurrence of any
of the following types of Indebtedness (collectively, "Permitted Debt"):

(1) the incurrence by SBS, and the guarantee thereof by Guarantors, of
Indebtedness and Letters of Credit under one or more Credit Facilities;
provided that the aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding does
not exceed $ million, with letters of credit being deemed to have
a principal amount equal to the maximum potential liability of SBS and the
Guarantors thereunder, less the aggregate amount of all mandatory
repayments of the principal of any term Indebtedness under a Credit
Facility that have been made since the date of the Indenture and less the
aggregate amount of all commitment reductions of any revolving Indebtedness
under a Credit Facility pursuant to clause (1) of the third paragraph of
the covenant described above under the caption "-- Repurchase at the Option
of Holders -- Asset Sales";

(2) the incurrence by SBS and the guarantee thereof by the Guarantors
of Indebtedness represented by the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees;

(3) the incurrence by SBS and its Restricted Subsidiaries of the
Existing Indebtedness;

(4) the incurrence by SBS or its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness represented by Capital Lease Obligations, mortgage financings
or Purchase Money Indebtedness, in each case incurred for the purpose of
financing all or any part of the purchase price or cost of construction or
improvement of property, plant or equipment used in the business of SBS or
such Restricted Subsidiary, in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5 million
at any time outstanding;

78
<PAGE> 85

(5) the incurrence by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness in exchange for, or the net proceeds of
which are used to refund, refinance or replace Indebtedness, other than
intercompany Indebtedness, that was permitted by the Indenture to be
incurred by the first paragraph of this covenant, or by clauses (2), (3),
(4), (5), (7), (8), (9), (10), (11) or (12) of this paragraph;

(6) the incurrence of Indebtedness between or among SBS and any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries; provided that:

(a) if SBS is the obligor on such Indebtedness, such Indebtedness
is expressly subordinated to the prior payment in full of all
Obligations with respect to the Notes; and

(b) any subsequent issuance or transfer of Equity Interests that
results in any such Indebtedness being held by a Person other than SBS
or a Restricted Subsidiary, and any sale or other transfer of any such
Indebtedness to a Person that is not either SBS or a Restricted
Subsidiary, shall be deemed, in each case, to constitute an incurrence
of such Indebtedness by SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case
may be;

(7) the incurrence by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Hedging Obligations that are incurred for the purpose of fixing or hedging
interest rate risk with respect to any floating rate Indebtedness that is
permitted by the terms of this Indenture to be outstanding;

(8) the guarantee by SBS or any of the Guarantors of Indebtedness that
was permitted to be incurred by another provision of this covenant;

(9) the accrual of interest, the accretion or amortization of original
issue discount, the payment of interest on any Indebtedness in the form of
additional Indebtedness with the same terms, and the payment of dividends
on Disqualified Stock in the form of additional shares of the
same class of Disqualified Stock; provided, in each case, that the amount
thereof is included in fixed charges of the Company as accrued;

(10) the incurrence by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness consisting of performance, bid or advance payment bonds,
surety bonds, custom bonds, utility bonds and similar obligations arising
in the ordinary course of business;

(11) the incurrence by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
Indebtedness arising from agreements providing for indemnification,
adjustment of purchase price or similar obligations, in each case incurred
or assumed in connection with the disposition of any business, asset or
Subsidiary of SBS, provided that the maximum assumable Indebtedness shall
at no time exceed the gross proceeds actually received by SBS and its
Restricted Subsidiaries in connection with the disposition of any business,
asset or Subsidiary of SBS; and

(12) the incurrence by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of
additional Indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount (or accreted
value, as applicable) at any time outstanding, including all Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant to clause (5) above to refund,
refinance or replace any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to this clause
(12), not to exceed $10 million.

For purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, if an item of
Indebtedness meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of Permitted
Debt described in clauses (1) through (12) above or is entitled to be incurred
pursuant to the first paragraph of this covenant, SBS shall, in its sole
discretion, classify such item of Indebtedness in any manner that complies

79
<PAGE> 86

with this covenant and such item of Indebtedness will be treated as having been
incurred pursuant to only one of such clauses or pursuant to the first paragraph
hereof.

Asset Swaps

The Indenture will provide that SBS will not, and will not permit any of
its Restricted Subsidiaries to, in one or a series of related transactions,
directly or indirectly, engage in any Asset Swaps, unless: (i) at the time of
entering into the agreement to swap assets and immediately after giving effect
to the proposed Asset Swap, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred
and be continuing or would occur as a consequence thereof; (ii) SBS would, after
giving pro forma effect to the proposed Asset Swap, have been permitted to incur
at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to the Debt to Cash Flow
Ratio in the covenant "Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred
Stock"; (iii) the respective fair market values of the assets being purchased
and sold by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (as determined in good
faith by the management of SBS or, if such Asset Swap includes consideration in
excess of $1.0 million by the Board of Directors of SBS, as evidenced by a Board
Resolution) are substantially the same at the time of entering into the
agreement to swap assets; and (iv) at the time of the consummation of the
proposed Asset Swap, the percentage of any decline in the fair market value
(determined as aforesaid) of the asset or assets being acquired by SBS and its
Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be significantly greater than the percentage
of any decline in the fair market value (determined as aforesaid) of the assets
being disposed of by SBS or its Restricted Subsidiaries, calculated from the
time the agreement to swap assets was entered into.

Limitation On Other Senior Subordinated Debt

The Indenture provides that:

(1) SBS will not directly or indirectly incur any Indebtedness that is
subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Senior Debt and senior in
any respect in right of payment to the Notes; and

(2) no Guarantor will incur any Indebtedness that is subordinate or
junior in right of payment to its Guarantor Senior Debt and senior in any
respect in right of payment to such Guarantor's Subsidiary Guarantee.

Liens

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create, incur, assume or suffer to exist any Lien
securing Indebtedness or trade payables on any asset now owned or hereafter
acquired, or any income or profits therefrom or assign or convey any right to
receive income therefrom, except Permitted Liens.

Sale And Leaseback Transactions

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
enter into any sale and leaseback transaction; provided that SBS and the
Guarantors may enter into a sale and leaseback transaction if:

(1) SBS or such Guarantor could have

(a) incurred Indebtedness in an amount equal to the Attributable
Debt relating to such sale and leaseback transaction pursuant to the
Debt to Cash Flow Ratio test set

80
<PAGE> 87

forth in the first paragraph of the covenant described above under the
caption "-- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of Preferred Stock";
and

(b) incurred a Lien to secure such Attributable Debt pursuant to
the covenant described above under the caption "-- Liens";

(2) the gross cash proceeds of such sale and leaseback transaction are
at least equal to the fair market value (as determined by the Board of
Directors in good faith) of the property that is the subject of such sale
and leaseback transaction; and

(3) the transfer of assets in such sale and leaseback transaction is
permitted by, and the proceeds of such transaction are applied in
compliance with, the covenant described above under the caption
"-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders--Asset Sales."

Dividend And Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become
effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted
Subsidiary to:

(1) pay dividends or make any other distributions on its Capital Stock
to SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, or with respect to any other
interest or participation in, or measured by, its profits, or pay any
indebtedness owed to SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(2) make loans or advances to SBS or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries; or

(3) transfer any of its properties or assets to SBS or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries.

However, the preceding restrictions will not apply to encumbrances or
restrictions existing under or by reason of:

(1) Existing Indebtedness as in effect on the date of the Indenture;

(2) the Senior Credit Facility and any amendments, modifications,
restatements, renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacements or
refinancings thereof, and any other agreement governing or relating to
Senior Debt, provided that such amendments, modifications, restatements,
renewals, increases, supplements, refundings, replacement or refinancings
and other agreements are no more restrictive with respect to such dividend
and other payment restrictions than those contained in the Senior Credit
Facility;

(3) the Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees;

(4) applicable law;

(5) any instrument governing Indebtedness or Capital Stock of a Person
acquired by SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries as in effect at the
time of such acquisition, except to the extent such Indebtedness was
incurred in connection with or in contemplation of such acquisition, which
encumbrance or restriction is not applicable to any Person, or the
properties or assets of any Person, other than the Person, or the property
or assets of the Person, so acquired; provided that, in the case of
Indebtedness, such Indebtedness was permitted by the terms of the Indenture
to be incurred;

(6) customary non-assignment provisions in leases and other agreements
entered into in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past
practices;

81
<PAGE> 88

(7) purchase money obligations (including Capital Lease Obligations)
for property acquired in the ordinary course of business that impose
restrictions of the nature described in clause (3) above on the property so
acquired;

(8) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness; provided that the restrictions
contained in the agreements governing such Permitted Refinancing
Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than those
contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being refinanced;

(9) Liens securing Indebtedness otherwise permitted to be incurred
pursuant to the provisions of the covenant described above under the
caption "-- Liens" that limits the right of the debtor to dispose of the
assets securing such Indebtedness;

(10) provisions with respect to the disposition or distribution of
assets or property in joint venture agreements and other similar agreements
entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(11) restrictions on cash or other deposits or net worth imposed by
customers under contracts entered into in the ordinary course of business;

(12) any agreement for the sale or other disposition of a Restricted
Subsidiary that restricts distributions by that Restricted Subsidiary
pending its sale or other disposition; and

(13) Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness, provided that the
restrictions contained in the agreements governing such Permitted
Refinancing Indebtedness are no more restrictive, taken as a whole, than
those contained in the agreements governing the Indebtedness being
refinanced.

Merger, Consolidation Or Sale Of Assets

SBS may not consolidate or merge with or into another Person, whether or
not SBS is the surviving corporation, or sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey
or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties or assets in
one or more related transactions, to another corporation, Person; unless:

(1) either

(a) SBS is the surviving corporation or

(b) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger, if other than SBS, or to which such sale, assignment, transfer,
lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made is a
corporation organized or existing under the laws of the United States,
any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

(2) the Person formed by or surviving any such consolidation or
merger, if other than SBS, or the Person to which such sale, assignment,
transfer, lease, conveyance or other disposition shall have been made
assumes all the obligations of SBS under the Notes and the Indenture
pursuant to a supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to
the Trustee;

(3) immediately after such transaction no Default or Event of Default
exists; and

(4) except in the case of a merger of SBS with or into a Wholly Owned
Restricted Subsidiary of SBS, SBS or the Person formed by or surviving any
such consolidation or merger, if other than SBS, or to which such sale,
assignment, transfer, lease, conveyance or

82
<PAGE> 89

other disposition shall have been made would, both immediately prior to and
immediately after giving pro forma effect thereto as if such transaction
had occurred at the beginning of the applicable four-quarter period, be
permitted to incur at least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to
the Debt to Cash Flow Ratio test set forth in the first paragraph of the
covenant described above under the caption "-- Incurrence of Indebtedness
and Issuance of Preferred Stock."

Transactions With Affiliates

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to,
make any payment to, or sell, lease, transfer or otherwise dispose of any of its
properties or assets to, or purchase any property or assets from, or enter into
or make or amend any transaction, contract, agreement, understanding, loan,
advance or guarantee with, or for the benefit of, any Affiliate (each of the
foregoing, an "Affiliate Transaction"), unless:

(1) such Affiliate Transaction is on terms that are no less favorable
to SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary than those that would have been
obtained in a comparable transaction by SBS or such Restricted Subsidiary
with an unrelated Person; and

(2) SBS delivers to the Trustee:

(a) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$2.5 million, a resolution of the Board of Directors set forth in an
Officers' Certificate certifying that such Affiliate Transaction
complies with clause (1) above and that a majority of the disinterested
members of the Board of Directors approved such Affiliate Transaction;
and

(b) with respect to any Affiliate Transaction or series of related
Affiliate Transactions involving aggregate consideration in excess of
$10 million, an opinion as to the fairness to SBS of such Affiliate
Transaction from a financial point of view issued by an accounting,
appraisal or investment banking firm of national standing.

The following items shall not be deemed to be Affiliate Transactions and,
therefore, will not be subject to the provisions of the prior paragraph:

(1) any transaction approved by the Board of Directors of SBS, with an
officer or director of SBS or of any of its Subsidiaries in his or her
capacity as an officer or director entered into in the ordinary course of
business;

(2) transactions between or among SBS and/or its Restricted
Subsidiaries;

(3) payment of reasonable directors fees to the Board of Directors of
SBS and of its Restricted Subsidiaries;

(4) fees and compensation paid to, and indemnity provided on behalf
of, officers, directors or employees of SBS or any of its Restricted
Subsidiaries, as determined in good faith by the Board of Directors of SBS
or of any such Restricted Subsidiary, to the extent the same are reasonable
and customary;

(5) any Restricted Payment that is permitted by the provisions of the
Indenture described above under the caption "-- Restricted Payments"; and

(6) agreements in effect on the date of the Indenture and any
modification thereto or any transaction contemplated thereby (including
pursuant to any modification thereto) in any replacement agreement therefor
so long as such modification or replacement is not more

83
<PAGE> 90

disadvantageous to the holders of the Notes in any material respect than
the original agreement as in effect on the date of the Indenture.

Additional Subsidiary Guarantees

If SBS or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries acquires or creates another
domestic Restricted Subsidiary after the date of the Indenture, other than the
Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, or if any domestic Unrestricted Subsidiary becomes a
Restricted Subsidiary of SBS, then such Subsidiary will execute a Subsidiary
Guarantee of the Notes and deliver an opinion of counsel, in accordance with the
terms of the Indenture.

Payments For Consent

SBS will not, and will not permit any of its Subsidiaries to, directly or
indirectly, pay or cause to be paid any consideration to any holder of any Notes
as an inducement to any consent, waiver or amendment of any of the terms or
provisions of the Indenture or the Notes unless such consideration is offered to
be paid to all holders of the Notes that consent, waive or agree to amend in the
time frame set forth in the solicitation documents relating to such consent,
waiver or agreement.

Reports

Whether or not required by the Commission, so long as any Notes are
outstanding, SBS will furnish to the holders of Notes, within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and regulations:

(1) all quarterly and annual financial information that would be
required to be contained in a filing with the Commission on Forms 10-Q and
10-K, including a "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" that describes the financial condition
and results of operations of SBS and its consolidated Subsidiaries and,
with respect to the annual information only, a report thereon by SBS's
certified independent accountants; and

(2) all current reports that would be required to be filed with the
Commission on Form 8-K.

In addition, whether or not required by the Commission, SBS will file a
copy of all such information and reports referred to in clauses (1) and (2)
above with the Commission for public availability within the time periods
specified in the Commission's rules and regulations, unless the Commission will
not accept such a filing, and make such information available to securities
analysts and prospective investors upon request.

EVENTS OF DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

Each of the following constitutes an Event of Default:

(1) default for 30 days in the payment when due of interest on the
Notes, whether or not prohibited by the subordination provisions of the
Indenture;

(2) default in payment when due of the principal of or premium, if
any, on the Notes, whether or not prohibited by the subordination
provisions of the Indenture;

84
<PAGE> 91

(3) failure by SBS or any Restricted Subsidiary to comply with the
provisions described under the captions "-- Repurchase at the Option of
Holders -- Change of Control" or "-- Certain Covenants -- Merger,
Consolidation or Sale of Assets";

(4) failure by SBS or any Restricted Subsidiary for 30 days after
written notice by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes to comply with the provisions
described under the captions "-- Repurchase at the Option of
Holders -- Asset Sales," "-- Certain Covenants -- Restricted Payments" or
"-- Certain Covenants -- Incurrence of Indebtedness and Issuance of
Preferred Stock";

(5) failure by SBS or any Restricted Subsidiary for 60 days after
written notice by the Trustee or the holders of at least 25% in principal
amount of the then outstanding Notes to comply with any of its other
agreements in the Indenture or the Notes;

(6) default under any mortgage, indenture or instrument under which
there may be issued or by which there may be secured or evidenced any
Indebtedness for money borrowed by SBS or any of its Significant
Subsidiaries, or the payment of which is guaranteed by SBS or any of its
Significant Subsidiaries, whether such Indebtedness or guarantee now exists
or is created after the date of the Indenture, if that default:

(a) is caused by a failure to pay (a "Payment Default") principal
of or premium, if any, or interest on such Indebtedness when due (after
giving effect to any applicable grace period provided in such
Indebtedness on the date of such default); or

(b) results in the acceleration of such Indebtedness prior to its
express maturity;

and, in each case, the principal amount of any such Indebtedness, together with
the principal amount of any other such Indebtedness under which there has been a
Payment Default or the maturity of which has been so accelerated, aggregates $5
million or more;

(7) failure by SBS or any of its Significant Subsidiaries to pay final
judgments aggregating in excess of $5 million (net of amounts covered by
insurance), which judgments are not paid, discharged or stayed for a period
of 60 days;

(8) except as permitted by the Indenture, any Subsidiary Guarantee
shall be held in any judicial proceeding to be unenforceable or invalid or
shall cease for any reason to be in full force and effect or any Guarantor,
or any Person acting on behalf of any Guarantor, shall deny or disaffirm
its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee; and

(9) certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency with respect to SBS or
any of SBS's Restricted Subsidiaries that constitutes a Significant
Subsidiary or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of SBS that, taken
together, would constitute a Significant Subsidiary.

If any Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the
holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may
declare all the Notes to be due and payable immediately. However, if an Event of
Default arises from certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency, with respect to
SBS, any Restricted Subsidiary of SBS that constitutes a Significant Subsidiary
or any group of Restricted Subsidiaries of SBS that, taken together, would
constitute a Significant Subsidiary, all outstanding Notes automatically will
become due and payable immediately.

Holders of the Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as
provided in the Indenture. Subject to certain limitations, holders of a majority
in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may direct the Trustee in its
exercise of any trust or power. The Trustee may

85
<PAGE> 92

withhold from holders of the Notes notice of any continuing Default or Event of
Default, except a Default or Event of Default relating to the payment of
principal or interest, if it determines that withholding notice is in their
interest.

If an Event of Default occurs by reason of any willful action or inaction
taken or not taken by or on behalf of SBS with the intention of avoiding payment
of the premium that SBS would have had to pay if SBS then had elected to redeem
the Notes pursuant to the optional redemption provisions of the Indenture, an
equivalent premium will also become immediately due and payable to the extent
permitted by law upon the acceleration of the Notes. If an Event of Default
occurs prior to September 30, 2004 by reason of any willful action or inaction
taken or not taken by or on behalf of SBS with the intention of avoiding the
prohibition on redemption of the Notes prior to such date, then the Make Whole
Premium specified in the Indenture will also become immediately due and payable
to the extent permitted by law upon the acceleration of the Notes.

The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then
outstanding by notice to the Trustee may on behalf of the holders of all of the
Notes waive any existing Default or Event of Default and its consequences under
the Indenture except a continuing Default or Event of Default in the payment of
interest on, or the principal of, the Notes.

SBS is required to deliver to the Trustee annually a statement regarding
compliance with the Indenture. Upon becoming aware of any Default or Event of
Default, SBS is required to deliver to the Trustee a statement specifying such
Default or Event of Default.

NO PERSONAL LIABILITY OF DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND STOCKHOLDERS

No director, officer, employee or stockholder of SBS or any Guarantor, as
such, will have any liability for any obligations of SBS or any Guarantor under
the Notes, the Subsidiary Guarantees, the Indenture or for any claim based on,
in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each holder
of Notes by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver
and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the Notes. The waiver
may not be effective to waive liabilities under the federal securities laws.

LEGAL DEFEASANCE AND COVENANT DEFEASANCE

SBS may, at its option and at any time, elect to have all of its
obligations discharged with respect to the outstanding Notes and to have each
Guarantor's obligation discharged with respect to its Subsidiary Guarantee
("Legal Defeasance"), except for:

(1) the rights of holders of outstanding Notes to receive payments in
respect of the principal of and premium and interest, if any, on the Notes
when such payments are due from the trust referred to below;

(2) SBS's obligations with respect to the Notes concerning issuing
temporary Notes, registration of Notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or
stolen Notes and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment;

(3) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee,
and SBS's obligations in connection therewith; and

(4) the Legal Defeasance provisions of the Indenture.

In addition, SBS may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the
obligations of SBS and each Guarantor released with respect to certain covenants
that are described in the

86
<PAGE> 93

Indenture ("Covenant Defeasance") and thereafter any omission to comply with
such obligations shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default with respect
to the Notes. If Covenant Defeasance occurs, certain events, not including
non-payment, bankruptcy, receivership, rehabilitation and insolvency events,
described under the caption "Events of Default and Remedies" will no longer
constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes.

In order to exercise either Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance:

(1) SBS must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the
benefit of the holders of the Notes, cash in U.S. dollars, non-callable
Government Securities, or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be
sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent
public accountants, to pay the principal of and premium, and interest, if
any, on the outstanding Notes on the stated maturity or on the applicable
redemption date, as the case may be, and SBS must specify whether the Notes
are being defeased to maturity or to a particular redemption date;

(2) in the case of Legal Defeasance, SBS shall have delivered to the
Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably acceptable to
the Trustee confirming that:

(a) SBS has received from, or there has been published by, the
Internal Revenue Service a ruling or

(b) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the
applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that,
and based thereon such opinion of counsel shall confirm that, the
holders of the outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss
for federal income tax purposes as a result of such Legal Defeasance and
will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same
manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Legal
Defeasance had not occurred;

(3) in the case of Covenant Defeasance, SBS shall have delivered to
the Trustee an opinion of counsel in the United States reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee confirming that the holders of the outstanding
Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax
purposes as a result of such Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to
federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same
times as would have been the case if such Covenant Defeasance had not
occurred;

(4) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be
continuing on the date of such deposit, other than a Default or Event of
Default resulting from the borrowing of funds to be applied to such
deposit, or insofar as Events of Default from bankruptcy or insolvency
events are concerned, at any time in the period ending on the 91st day
after the date of deposit;

(5) such Legal Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance will not result in a
breach or violation of, or constitute a default under any material
agreement or instrument, other than the Indenture, to which SBS or any of
its Subsidiaries is a party or by which SBS or any of its Subsidiaries is
bound;

(6) SBS shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of counsel to
the effect that after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds
will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency,
reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally;

87
<PAGE> 94

(7) SBS shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
stating that the deposit was not made by SBS with the intent of preferring
the holders of Notes over the other creditors of SBS with the intent of
defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of SBS or others;
and

(8) SBS shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officers' Certificate
and an opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent
provided for relating to the Legal Defeasance or the Covenant Defeasance
have been complied with.

TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE

A holder may transfer or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture.
The Registrar and the Trustee may require a holder, among other things, to
furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer documents and SBS may require a
holder to pay any taxes and fees required by law or permitted by the Indenture.
SBS is not required to transfer or exchange any Note selected for redemption.
Also, SBS is not required to transfer or exchange any Note for a period of 15
days before a selection of Notes to be redeemed. The registered holder of a Note
will be treated as the owner of it for all purposes.

AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT AND WAIVER

The Indenture, the Notes and the Subsidiary Guarantees may be amended or
supplemented with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal
amount of the Notes then outstanding, including, without limitation, consents
obtained in connection with a purchase of, or tender offer or exchange offer
for, Notes. Any existing default or compliance with any provision of the
Indenture, the Notes or the Subsidiary Guarantees may be waived with the consent
of the holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes,
including consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer
for Notes.

However, without the consent of each holder affected, an amendment or
waiver may not, with respect to any Notes held by a non-consenting holder:

(1) reduce the principal amount of Notes whose holders must consent to
an amendment, supplement or waiver;

(2) reduce the principal of or change the fixed maturity of any Note
or alter the provisions with respect to the redemption of the Notes, other
than provisions relating to the covenants described above under the caption
"-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders";

(3) reduce the rate of or change the time for payment of interest on
any Note;

(4) waive a Default or Event of Default in the payment of principal of
or premium or interest, if any, on the Notes except a rescission of
acceleration of the Notes by the holders of at least a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes and a waiver of the payment default
that resulted from such acceleration;

(5) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in the
Notes;

(6) make any change in the provisions of the Indenture relating to
waivers of past Defaults or the rights of holders of Notes to receive
payments of principal of or premium or interest, if any, on the Notes;

88
<PAGE> 95

(7) waive a redemption payment with respect to any Note, other than a
payment required by one of the covenants described above under the caption
"-- Repurchase at the Option of Holders";

(8) release any Guarantor from its Subsidiary Guarantee; or

(9) make any change in the foregoing amendment and waiver provisions.

In addition, any amendment to the provisions of Article 10 of the Indenture
relating to subordination will require the consent of the holders of at least
75% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding if such
amendment would adversely affect the rights of holders of Notes.

Notwithstanding the preceding, without the consent of any holder of Notes,
SBS, a Guarantor, with respect to a Subsidiary Guarantee or the Indenture to
which it is a party, and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture, the
Notes or any Subsidiary Guarantee:

(1) to cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency;

(2) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of
certificated Notes;

(3) to provide for the assumption of SBS's or any Guarantor's
obligations to holders of Notes in the case of a merger or consolidation or
sale of substantially all of SBS's assets;

(4) to make any change that would provide any additional rights or
benefits to the holders of Notes or that does not adversely affect the
legal rights under the Indenture of any such holder; or

(5) to comply with requirements of the Commission in order to effect
or maintain the qualification of the Indenture under the Trust Indenture
Act.

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

If the Trustee becomes a creditor of SBS, the Indenture limits its right to
obtain payment of claims in certain cases, or to realize on certain property
received in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The Trustee will
be permitted to engage in other transactions; however, if it acquires any
conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict within 90 days, apply to
the Commission for permission to continue or resign.

The holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes
will have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any
proceeding for exercising any remedy available to the Trustee, subject to
certain exceptions. The Indenture provides that if an Event of Default occurs
and continues, the Trustee will be required, in the exercise of its power, to
use the degree of care of a prudent man in the conduct of his own affairs.
Subject to such provisions, the Trustee will be under no obligation to exercise
any of its rights or powers under the Indenture at the request of any holder of
Notes, unless such holder shall have offered to the Trustee security and
indemnity satisfactory to it against any loss, liability or expense.

BOOK-ENTRY, DELIVERY AND FORM

The Notes are represented by one or more Notes in registered, global form
without interest coupons (collectively, the "Global Notes"). The Global Notes
have been deposited with the Trustee as custodian for the Depository Trust
Company ("DTC"), in New York, New York, and are registered in the name of DTC or
its nominee, in each case, for credit to an account of a direct or indirect
participant in DTC.

<PAGE> 96

Except as set forth below, the Global Notes may be transferred, in whole
and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its
nominee. Beneficial interests in the Global Notes may not be exchanged for Notes
in certificated form except in the limited circumstances described below.

Some transfers of beneficial interests in the Global Notes are subject to
the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect
participants.

Initially, the Trustee will act as Paying Agent and Registrar. The Notes
may be presented for registration of transfer and exchange at the offices of the
Registrar.

DEPOSITORY PROCEDURES

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC, is
provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are
solely within the control of DTC's settlement systems and are subject to changes
by it.

DTC has advised SBS that it is a limited-purpose trust company created to
hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the
"Participants") and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions
in those securities between Participants through electronic book-entry changes
in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include securities brokers and
dealers, including the Underwriters, banks, trust companies, clearing
corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC's system is also
available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies
that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant,
either directly or indirectly (collectively, the "Indirect Participants").
Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on
behalf of DTC only through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The
ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security
held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and
Indirect Participants.

DTC has also advised SBS that, pursuant to procedures established by it:

(1) upon deposit of the Global Notes, DTC has credited the accounts of
Participants designated by the Underwriters with portions of the principal
amount of the Global Notes; and

(2) ownership of such interests in the Global Notes is shown on, and
the transfer of ownership thereof may be effected only through, records
maintained by DTC, with respect to the Participants, or by the Participants
and the Indirect Participants, with respect to other owners of beneficial
interest in the Global Notes.

Investors in the Global Notes may hold their interests therein directly
through DTC, if they are Participants in such system, or indirectly through
organizations, which are Participants in such system. All interests in a Global
Note, may be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC.

Except as described below, owners of interests in the Global Notes will not
have Notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of
Notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or
"Holders" thereof under the Indenture for any purpose.

Payments in respect of the principal of, and premium, if any, and interest
on a Global Note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable to
DTC in its capacity as the registered holder under the Indenture. Under the
terms of the Indenture, SBS and the Trustee

90
<PAGE> 97

will treat the persons in whose names the Notes, including the Global Notes, are
registered as the owners thereof for the purpose of receiving such payments and
for any and all other purposes whatsoever. Consequently, neither SBS, the
Trustee nor any agent of SBS or the Trustee has or will have any responsibility
or liability for:

(1) any aspect of DTC's records or any Participant's or Indirect
Participant's records relating to or payments made on account of any
beneficial ownership interest in the Global Notes, or for maintaining,
supervising or reviewing any of DTC's records or any Participant's or
Indirect Participant's records relating to the beneficial ownership
interests in the Global Notes; or

(2) any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or
any of its Participants or Indirect Participants.

DTC has advised SBS that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment
in respect of securities such as the Notes, including principal and interest, is
to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the
payment date, in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in the
principal amount of beneficial interest in the relevant security as shown on the
records of DTC unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on
such payment date. Payments by the Participants and the Indirect Participants to
the beneficial owners of Notes will be governed by standing instructions and
customary practices and will be the responsibility of the Participants or the
Indirect Participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the Trustee or
SBS. Neither SBS nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of
its Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the Notes, and SBS and
the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on
instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

Interests in the Global Notes will trade in DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement
System and secondary market trading activity in such interests will, therefore,
settle in immediately available funds, subject in all cases to the rules and
procedures of DTC and it participants.

Transfers between Participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with
DTC's procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds. Transfers between
participants in Euroclear and Cedel will be effected in the ordinary way in
accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

DTC has advised SBS that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a
holder of Notes only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose
account DTC has credited the interests in the Global Notes and only in respect
of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes as to which such
Participant or Participants has or have given such direction. However, if there
is an Event of Default under the Notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the
Global Notes for legended Notes in certificated form, and to distribute such
Notes to its Participants.

Although DTC has agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers
of interests in the Global Notes among Participants in DTC, it is under no
obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and such
procedures may be discontinued at any time. Neither SBS nor the Trustee nor any
of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by
DTC or its participants or indirect participants of its obligations under the
rules and procedures governing their operations.

DTC's management is aware that some computer applications, systems and the
like for processing data, referred to as "Systems," that are dependent upon
calendar dates, including

91
<PAGE> 98

dates before, on and after January 1, 2000, may encounter "Year 2000 problems."
DTC has informed its participants and other members of the financial community,
referred to as the "Industry," that it has developed and is implementing a
program so that its Systems, as the same relate to the timely payment of
distributions (including principal and income payments) to securityholders,
book-entry deliveries, and settlement of trades within DTC, referred to as "DTC
Services," continue to function appropriately. This program includes a technical
assessment and a remediation plan, each of which is complete. Additionally,
DTC's plan includes a testing phase, which is expected to be completed within
appropriate time frames.

However, DTC's ability to perform properly its services is also dependent
upon other parties, including but not limited to issuers and their agents, as
well as third party vendors from whom DTC licenses software and hardware, and
third party vendors on whom DTC relies for information or the provision of
services, including telecommunications and electrical utility service providers,
among others. DTC has informed the Industry that it is contacting (and will
continue to contact) third party vendors from whom DTC acquires services to: (i)
impress upon them the importance of such services being Year 2000 compliant; and
(ii) determine the extent of their efforts for Year 2000 remediation (and, as
appropriate, testing) of their services. In addition, DTC is in the process of
developing such contingency plans as it deems appropriate.

According to DTC, the foregoing information with respect to DTC has been
provided to the Industry for informational purposes only and is not intended to
serve as a representation, warranty or contract modification of any kind.

CERTIFICATED NOTES

If:

(1) DTC

(a) notifies SBS that it is unwilling or unable to continue as
depositary for the Global Notes and SBS fails to appoint a successor
depositary or

(b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the
Exchange Act;

(2) SBS, at its option, notifies the Trustee in writing that it elects
to cause the issuance of the certificated notes; or

(3) there shall have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes,

a Global Note will be exchangeable for definitive Notes in registered form
("Certificated Notes"). Upon any such issuance, the Trustee is required to
register such Certificated Notes in the name of, and cause the same to be
delivered to, such person or persons, or the nominee of any thereof.

In addition, beneficial interests in a Global Note may be exchanged for
Certificated Notes upon request but only upon prior written notice given to the
Trustee by or on behalf of DTC in accordance with the Indenture. Further,
Certificated Notes may be exchanged for beneficial interests in Global Notes
upon a delivery by the holder of a certificate to the Trustee that the transfer
will comply with the transfer restrictions of the Note.

Neither SBS nor the Trustee will be liable for any delay by the Global Note
holder or the depositary in identifying the beneficial owners of Notes and SBS
and the Trustee may

92
<PAGE> 99

conclusively rely on, and will be protected in relying on, instructions from the
Global Note holder or the depositary for all purposes.

SAME DAY SETTLEMENT AND PAYMENT

The Indenture requires that payments in respect of the Notes represented by
the Global Notes (including principal, premium, if any, and interest) be made by
wire transfer of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the
Global Note holder. With respect to Certificated Notes, SBS will make all
payments of principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, by wire transfer
of immediately available funds to the accounts specified by the holder thereof
or, if no such account is specified, by mailing a check to each such holder's
registered address. SBS expects that secondary trading in the Certificated Notes
will also be settled in immediately available funds.

determination is made on a pro forma basis after giving effect to all
acquisitions and dispositions of assets made by such Person and its Restricted

For purposes of making the computation referred to above:

(1) acquisitions that have been made by such Person or any of its
Restricted Subsidiaries, including through mergers or consolidations and
including any related financing transactions, during the four-quarter
reference period or subsequent to such reference period and on or prior to

obligation or otherwise, or is redeemable at the option of the holder thereof,
in whole or in part, on or prior to the date that is 91 days after the date on

98
<PAGE> 105

mature. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, any Capital Stock that would

such Capital Stock pursuant to such provisions unless such repurchase or
redemption complies with the covenant described above under the caption

(3) banker's acceptances;

that is more than 30 days past due, in the case of any other Indebtedness.

"Investments" means, with respect to any Person, all investments by such
Person in other Persons, including Affiliates, in the forms of direct or

classified as investments on a balance sheet prepared in accordance with GAAP.
If SBS or any Subsidiary of SBS sells or otherwise disposes of any Equity

with respect to the Called Principal of such Note over the amount of such Called
Principal, provided that the Make-Whole Premium may in no event be less than
zero. For the purposes of determining the Make-Whole Premium, the following
terms have the following meanings:

"Called Principal" means, with respect to any Note, the principal of
such Note that is declared to be immediately due and payable.

"Discounted Value" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any
Note, the amount obtained by discounting all Remaining Scheduled Payments
with respect to such Called Principal from their respective scheduled due
dates to the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in
accordance with accepted financial practice and at a discount factor
(applied on the same periodic basis as that on which interest on the Notes
is payable) equal to the Reinvestment Yield with respect to such Called
Principal.

"Reinvestment Yield" means, with respect to the Called Principal of
any Note, 0.5% over the yield to maturity implied by (i) the yields
reported, as of 10:00 A.M. (Eastern Standard time) on the second Business
Day preceding the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, on
the display designated as "Page 678" on the Telerate Access Service (or
such other display as may replace Page 678 on the Telerate Access Service)
for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a maturity equal to the
Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such Settlement Date,
or (ii) if such yields are not reported as of such time or the yields
reported as of such time are not ascertainable, the Treasury Constant
Maturity Series Yields reported, for the latest day for which such yields
have been so reported as of the second Business Day preceding the
Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal, in Federal Reserve
Statistical Release H.15 (519) (or any comparable successor publication)
for actively traded U.S. Treasury securities having a constant maturity
equal to the Remaining Average Life of such Called Principal as of such
Settlement Date. Such implied yield will be determined, if necessary, by
(a) converting U.S. Treasury bill quotations to bond-equivalent yields in
accordance with accepted financial practice and (b) interpolating linearly
between (1) the actively traded U.S. Treasury security with the duration
closest to and greater than the Remaining Average Life and (2) the actively
traded U.S. Treasury security with the duration closest to and less than
the Remaining Average Life.

"Remaining Average Life" means, with respect to any Called Principal,
the number of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) obtained
by dividing (i) such Called Principal into (ii) the sum of the products
obtained by multiplying (a) the principal component of each Remaining
Scheduled Payment with respect to such Called Principal by (b) the number
of years (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth year) that will elapse
between the Settlement Date with respect to such Called Principal and the
scheduled due date of such Remaining Scheduled Payment.

"Remaining Scheduled Payments" means, with respect to the Called
Principal of any Note, all payments of such Called Principal and interest
thereon that would be due after the Settlement Date with respect to such
Called Principal if no payment of such Called Principal were made prior to
its scheduled due date, provided that if such Settlement Date is not a date
on which interest payments are due to be made under the terms of the Notes,
then the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment will be
reduced by the amount of interest accrued to such Settlement Date and
required to be paid on such Settlement Date.

"Settlement Date" means, with respect to the Called Principal of any
Note, the date on which such Called Principal is declared to be immediately
due and payable.

CERTAIN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

GENERAL

The following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income tax
considerations generally applicable to purchasers of the notes. The U.S. federal
income tax considerations described below are based upon (1) currently existing
provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), (2) applicable
permanent, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations, (3) judicial authority,
and (4) current administrative rulings and pronouncements of the IRS. There can
be no assurance that the IRS will not take a contrary view to, and no ruling
from the IRS has been, or will be, sought on the issues discussed in this
summary. Legislative, judicial, or administrative changes or interpretations may
be adopted that could alter or modify the statements and conclusions described
in this section of the prospectus. Any of those changes or interpretations may
or may not be retroactive and could affect the tax consequences discussed below.

The summary is not a complete analysis or description of all potential U.S.
federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to, or of the actual tax
effect that any of the matters described herein will have on, particular
purchasers. This summary does not address foreign, state, local or other tax
consequences and it does not purport to address special classes of taxpayers
(such as S corporations, mutual funds, insurance companies, financial
institutions, small business investment companies, regulated investment
companies, broker-dealers and tax-exempt organizations) who are subject to
special treatment under the U.S. federal income tax laws, or persons that hold
notes that are a hedge against, or that are hedged against, currency risk or
that are part of a straddle or conversion transaction, or persons whose
functional currency within the meaning of section 985 of the Code is not the
U.S. dollar. Furthermore, estate and gift tax consequences are not discussed
herein. No opinion of counsel will be requested with respect to any of the
matters discussed herein. Our discussion assumes that the notes will be held as
capital assets within the meaning of section 1221 of the Code.

As used in this summary, the term "U.S. Holder" means (1) a citizen or
resident of the United States for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (2) a
corporation or a partnership (or entity treated as a corporation or partnership
for U.S. tax purposes) created or organized in or under the laws of the United
States or any political subdivision thereof (including the District of
Columbia), (3) an estate, the income of which is includible in gross income for
U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of its source, or (4) a trust if (a)
a U.S. court can exercise primary supervision over the administration of such
trust and (b) one or more U.S. fiduciaries has the authority to control all of
the substantial decisions of such trust (a "U.S. Holder"). As used in this
summary, the term "Non-U.S. Holder" means a beneficial holder of notes that is
not a U.S. Holder.

Because individual circumstances may differ, each prospective purchaser of
the notes is strongly urged to consult his or her own tax advisor with respect
to his or her particular tax situation and as to any U.S. federal, foreign,
state, local or other tax considerations (including any possible changes in tax
law) affecting the purchase, holding and disposition of the notes.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO U.S. HOLDERS

This section describes certain U.S. federal income tax considerations
applicable to U.S. Holders. Non-U.S. Holders should see the discussion below
under the heading "Federal Income Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders" for a
discussion of certain tax consideration applicable to them.

109
<PAGE> 116

Interest and Additional Amounts. Interest on the notes generally will be
taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary interest income at the time such amounts
are accrued or received, in accordance with the U.S. Holder's method of
accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

In the event that the notes are treated as having original issue discount
("OID"), a U.S. Holder (including a cash basis holder) generally would be
required to include the OID on the notes in income for U.S. federal income tax
purposes under the accrual method on a constant yield basis resulting in the
inclusion of interest in income in advance of the receipt of cash attributable
to that income. We do not believe that the notes will be treated as having OID.

Acquisition Premium. If a U.S. Holder acquires a note (generally other
than in an original issue) for an amount in excess of its "adjusted issue price"
but less than or equal to the sum of all amounts payable on the note after the
date of such purchase other than "qualified stated interest", such note will
have an acquisition premium to the extent of such excess. A qualified stated
interest payment is generally any one of a series of stated interest payments on
a note that are unconditionally payable at least annually at a single fixed rate
(with certain exceptions for lower rates paid during some periods) applied to
the outstanding principal amount of the note. The U.S. Holder of a note with an
acquisition premium would be entitled to reduce the daily portion of OID, if
any, includible in income by a fraction, the numerator of which is the excess of
the adjusted tax basis of the note immediately after its acquisition over the
adjusted issue price of the note and the denominator of which is the excess of
the sum of all payments (other than payments of qualified stated interest) after
the purchase date over such note's adjusted issue price.

Market Discount on Resale of the Notes. The market discount provisions of
sections 1276-1278 of the Code may affect the resale of the notes. If a U.S.
Holder acquires a note (generally other than in an original issue) at a market
discount that exceeds a statutorily defined de minimis amount and thereafter
recognizes gain upon a disposition (or makes a gift) of the note, the lesser of
(1) such gain (or appreciation, in the case of a gift) or (2) the portion of the
market discount that accrued while the note was held by such U.S. Holder, will
be treated as ordinary income at the time of the disposition. For these
purposes, market discount equals the excess of the "stated redemption price at
maturity" (or, if the note is issued with OID, its "revised issued price" as
defined in the Code) over the basis of the note in the hands of such U.S. Holder
immediately after its acquisition. The stated redemption price at maturity of a
note is the total of all payments provided by the note that are not qualified
stated interest. A U.S. Holder of a note may elect to include any market
discount in income currently as it accrues rather than upon disposition of the
note. This election is revocable only with the consent of the IRS and applies to
all market discount bonds acquired by the U.S. Holder on or after the first day
of the taxable year in which the holder makes the election. In addition,
although market discount generally accrues on a straight line basis over the
term of the note, at the election of the U.S. Holder, it may accrue on a
constant yield basis. If this election is made, the holder is deemed to make the
election to take market discount into income as it accrues.

A U.S. Holder of any note who acquired it at a market discount may be
required to defer the deduction of all or a portion of any interest paid or
accrued on any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the note
until the market discount is recognizable upon a subsequent disposition of the
note. Such a deferral is not required, however, if the U.S. Holder elects to
include accrued market discount in income currently.

Amortizable Bond Premium. Generally, a U.S. Holder who purchases a note
upon its original issuance for more than its principal amount (or, if the note
is issued with OID, its stated redemption price at maturity) will be subject to
the premium amortization rules of the Code.

110
<PAGE> 117

We do not believe that the notes will be treated as subject to the premium
amortization rules of the Code.

Disposition of the Notes. Unless a nonrecognition provision applies, the
sale, exchange, redemption (including pursuant to an offer by the Company) or
other disposition of a note, will be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax
purposes. In such event, in general, a U.S. Holder of notes will recognize gain
or loss equal to the difference between (1) the amount of cash plus the fair
market value of property received (except to the extent attributable to any
accrued interest on the notes) and (2) the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the notes
(as increased by any OID and market discount previously included in income by
the U.S. Holder and decreased by any amortizable bond premium deducted over the
term of the notes). Subject to the market discount rules discussed above, any
such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss, provided the
notes have been held for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses
is subject to limitations.

Backup Withholding. Under section 3406 of the Code and applicable Treasury
regulations, a noncorporate holder of the notes may be subject to backup
withholding at the rate of 31 percent with respect to "reportable payments,"
which include interest paid on, or, in certain cases, the proceeds of a sale,
exchange or redemption of, the notes. The payor will be required to deduct and
withhold the prescribed amounts if (1) the payee fails to furnish a taxpayer
identification number ("TIN") to the payor in the manner required, (2) the IRS
notifies the payor that the TIN furnished by the payee is incorrect, (3) there
has been a "notified payee underreporting" described in section 3406(c) of the
Code or (4) there has been a failure of the payee to certify under penalty of
perjury that the payee is not subject to withholding under section 3406(a)(1)(C)
of the Code. Amounts paid as backup withholding do not constitute an additional
tax and will be refunded (or credited against the holder's U.S. federal income
tax liability, if any) so long as the required information is provided to the
IRS. The Company will report to the holders of the notes and to the IRS the
amount of any "reportable payments" for each calendar year and the amount of tax
withheld, if any, with respect to payment on those securities.

FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS

of "Non-U.S. Holders." This section does not cover the U.S. federal tax rules
that apply to Non-U.S. Holders whose income or gain from the notes is
effectively connected with the conduct of a U.S. trade or business, as defined
by applicable U.S. federal income tax rules.

Interest on the Notes. Interest on the notes held by Non-U.S. Holders may
be subject to withholding of up to 30% of each payment made to the holders or
other payee unless the "portfolio interest exemption" applies. The interest paid
on the notes generally should qualify for the portfolio interest exemption.
Accordingly, interest paid on the notes to a Non-U.S. Holder should not be
subject to withholding if (1) the U.S. person who would otherwise be required to
deduct and withhold the tax receives from the Non-U.S. Holder who is the
beneficial owner of the obligation a statement signed by such person under
penalties of perjury, certifying that such owner is not a U.S. person on IRS
Form W-8 (or successor form); (2) such Non-U.S. Holder does not actually or
constructively own 10 percent or more of the capital or profits interests in the
Company; (3) such Non-U.S. Holder is not a "controlled foreign corporation"
(within the meaning of section 957 of the Code) related to the Company; and (4)
the Non-U.S. Holder is not a foreign "bank" receiving the interest on an
extension of credit pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of their trade or business.

If you do not claim, or do not qualify for, the benefit of the portfolio
interest exception, you may be subject to a 30% withholding tax on interest
payments on the notes. However, you may be able to claim the benefit of a
reduced withholding tax rate under an applicable income tax treaty. The required
information for claiming treaty benefits is generally submitted, under current
regulations, on Form 1001. Successor forms required under new Treasury
regulations, discussed below, will require additional information.

We may report annually to the IRS and to you the amount of interest paid,
and the tax withheld, if any, on the notes with respect to you.

Sale or other Disposition of the Notes. You will generally not be subject
to U.S. federal income tax or withholding tax on gain recognized on a sale,
exchange, redemption, retirement, or other disposition of the notes. You may,
however, be subject to tax on such gain if: (1) you are a nonresident alien
individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more in the
taxable year of the disposition; (2) you are an individual who is a former
citizen or long-term resident of the United States subject to certain U.S. tax
rules relevant to such status; or (3) the gain is effectively connected with the
conduct of a U.S. trade or business, as provided in applicable U.S. tax rules.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting. If you receive payments of
interest or principal directly from us or through the U.S. office of a
custodian, nominee, agent or broker, there is a possibility that you will be
subject to both backup withholding at a rate of 31 percent and information
reporting. Backup withholding and information reporting generally will not apply
to payments on the notes if you certify, on a Form W-8, or successor form, that
you are not a U.S. person, provided that the payor does not have actual
knowledge that the you are, in fact, a U.S. person. Any amounts withheld under
the backup withholding rules my be refunded or credited against the Non-U.S.
Holder's U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that the required
information is furnished to the IRS.

New Treasury Regulations. New Treasury regulations relating to withholding
tax or income paid to non-U.S. persons will generally be effective for payments
made after December 31, 2000. The new Treasury regulations modify the way in
which you establish your status as a non-U.S. "beneficial owner" eligible for
withholding exemptions including the portfolio interest exemption, a reduced
treaty rate or an exemption from backup withholding. You may be required to
provide certifications that comply with the provisions of the new Treasury
regulations, where required, not later than December 31, 2000, if you remain as
a holder of the notes on such date. If you are a Non-U.S. Holder claiming
benefits under an income tax treaty you should be aware that you may be required
to obtain a taxpayer identification number and to certify your eligibility under
the applicable treaty's limitations on benefits article in order to comply with
the new Treasury regulations' certification requirements. The new Treasury
regulations are complex and this summary does not completely describe them.
Please consult your tax advisor to determine how the new Treasury regulations
will affect your particular circumstances.

The foregoing summary is included herein for general information only and
does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be
relevant to a particular holder of notes in light of his or her particular
circumstances and income tax situation. Prospective investors are urged to
consult their own tax advisors as to any tax consequences to them from the
purchase, ownership, and disposition of notes, including the application and
effect of state, local, foreign, and other tax laws.

UNDERWRITING

Pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), the
underwriters named below (the "Underwriters") have agreed, severally and not
jointly, with us, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, to purchase
from us the aggregate principal amount of notes set forth opposite their names
below:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

- ------------ -------------------
<S> <C>
Lehman Brothers Inc. ....................................... $
--------
CIBC World Markets Corp. ...................................
--------
Total....................................................... $
--------
</TABLE>

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligation of each Underwriter
to pay for and accept delivery of the notes is subject to certain conditions,
including delivery of certain legal opinions by our and their counsel. Subject
to the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, the Underwriters are
committed to take and pay for all of the notes if any are taken.

The Underwriters for the notes propose to offer the notes inside the United
States directly and outside the United States through their selling agents.

We have been advised by the Underwriters that they propose to offer the
notes offered hereby initially at the public offering price set forth on the
cover page of this prospectus and to certain selected dealers (who may include
the Underwriters) at such public offering price less a concession not to exceed
% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes. The Underwriters or such
selected dealers may reallow a commission to certain other dealers not to exceed
% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes. After the initial public
offering of the notes, the public offering price, the concession to selected
dealers and the reallowance to the dealers may be changed by the Underwriters.

The following table shows the underwriting discount and commission to be
paid to the Underwriters by us in connection with the offering (expressed as a
percentage of the principal amount of the sales):

The Underwriting Agreement provides that we will indemnify the Underwriters
against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the federal securities
acts, and will contribute to payments the Underwriters may be required to make
in respect hereof.

The Underwriters will represent and warrant in the underwriting agreement
that (1) they have not offered or sold, and will not offer or sell any notes in
the United Kingdom by means of any document other than to persons whose ordinary
business is to buy, hold, manage or dispose of investments, whether as principal
or agent, for purposes of their businesses or otherwise. In circumstances that
do not constitute an offer to the public in the United Kingdom within the
meaning of the Public Offers of Securities Regulations 1995, (2) they have
complied and will comply with all applicable provisions of the Financial
Services Act of 1986 of the United Kingdom with respect to anything done by them
in relation to the notes in, from or otherwise involving the United Kingdom, and
(3) they have only issued or passed on and will only issue or pass on, to any
person in the United Kingdom, any document received by them in connection with
the issue of the notes, if that person is of a kind described in Article ii (3)
of the Financial Services Act of 1986 (Investment Advertisements)(Exemptions)
Order 1996 or is a person to whom the document may otherwise lawfully be issued
or passed on.

113
<PAGE> 120

We do not intend to list the notes on any national securities exchange or
to seek the admission thereof to trading on the Nasdaq National Market System.
We have been advised by the Underwriters that following the completion of this
offering, the Underwriters currently intend to make a market in the notes.
However, the Underwriters are not obligated to do so. Any market making
activities with respect to the notes may be discontinued at any time without
notice. In addition, such market-making activity will be subject to the limits
imposed by the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934, as amended.

In connection with this offering, the Underwriters may engage in certain
transactions that stabilize the price of the notes. Such transactions may
consist of bids or purchases for the purpose of pegging, fixing or maintaining
the price of the notes. If the Underwriters create a short position in the notes
in connection with this offering (i.e., if they sell more notes than are set
forth on the cover page of this prospectus) the Underwriters may reduce that
short position by purchasing notes in open market.

In general, purchases of a security for the purpose of stabilization or to
reduce a short position could cause the price of the security to be higher than
it might otherwise be in the absence of such purchases.

Neither we nor any of the Underwriters makes any representation or
prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions
described above may have on the price of the Notes. In addition, neither we nor
any of the Underwriters makes any representation that anyone will engage in such
transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued
without notice.

It is expected that delivery of the Notes will be made against payment
therefor on or about the date specified in the last paragraph of the cover page
of this prospectus supplement.

Lehman Brothers Inc. and CIBC World Markets Corp. are acting as
underwriters in connection with our initial public offering of Class A Common
Stock, for which they will receive customary fees and commissions. An affiliate
of Lehman Brothers Inc., Lehman Commercial Paper Inc. will act as arranger under
our senior credit facility, for which it will each receive customary fees. In
addition, each of Lehman Brothers Inc. and CIBC World Markets Corp. has from
time to time provided, and in the future may provide, certain investment banking
services to us and our affiliates, for which they have received, and in the
future would receive, customary fees.

The validity of the notes being offered by this prospectus and legal
matters regarding FCC issues will be passed upon for us by Kaye, Scholer,
Fierman, Hays & Handler, LLP, New York, New York. Rogers & Wells LLP, New York,
New York will pass upon the validity of the notes being offered by this
prospectus for the underwriters.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc.:

We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Spanish
Broadcasting System, Inc. and subsidiaries as listed in the accompanying index.
In connection with our audits, we also have audited the financial statement
schedule as listed in the accompanying index. These consolidated financial
statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the
Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Spanish
Broadcasting System, Inc. and subsidiaries as of September 28, 1997 and
September 27, 1998, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended September 27, 1998, in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Also, in our opinion,
the related financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the
basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in
all material respects, the information set forth therein.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
INTERIM INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 27, 1999 AND THE
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 28, 1998 AND JUNE 27, 1999 IS UNAUDITED

(1) ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc., a Delaware corporation and subsidiaries
(the "Company") owns and operates thirteen Spanish-language radio stations
serving the New York, Puerto Rico, Miami, Chicago, San Antonio and Los Angeles
markets through its subsidiaries, SBS of Greater New York, Inc., Spanish
Broadcasting System of Florida, Inc., Spanish Broadcasting System of California,
Inc., Spanish Broadcasting System of Greater Miami, Inc., Spanish Broadcasting
System of San Antonio, Inc. and Spanish Broadcasting System of Illinois, Inc.
Additionally, the Company's other subsidiaries include Spanish Broadcasting
System, Inc., a New Jersey corporation, Spanish Broadcasting System of Puerto
Rico, Inc., a Delaware corporation, Alarcon Holdings, Inc. ("Alarcon"), Spanish
Broadcasting System Network, Inc. ("SBS Network") and SBS Promotions, Inc. ("SBS
Promotions"). Alarcon owns and operates the building where the Company's New
York offices are located. SBS Network and SBS Promotions are currently dormant.
SBS Network was formerly the Company's exclusive agency representative for
national advertising sales. SBS Promotions formerly performed promotional
services for the Company's radio stations.

The domestic broadcasting industry is subject to extensive federal
regulation which, among other things, requires approval by the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") for the issuance, renewal, transfer and
assignment of broadcasting station operating licenses and limits the number of
broadcasting properties the Company may acquire. The Company operates in the
domestic radio broadcasting industry which is subject to extensive and changing
regulation by the FCC.

(2) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND RELATED MATTERS

(a) Basis of Presentation

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions
have been eliminated in consolidation.

The Company's subsidiaries (hereinafter referred to in this paragraph
collectively as "Subsidiary Guarantors") are fully, unconditionally, and jointly
and severally liable for the Company's senior unsecured notes referred to in
note 6. The Company has not included separate financial statements of the
Subsidiary Guarantors because (i) the Subsidiary Guarantors are wholly owned and
constitute all of the Company's direct or indirect subsidiaries, and (ii) the
Company is a holding company with no independent assets or operations other than
its investments in the Subsidiary Guarantors.

The Company's fiscal year is the 52-week period which ends on the last
Sunday of September and the nine month interim is a 39 week period which ends on
the last Sunday of June.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
INTERIM INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 27, 1999 AND THE
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 28, 1998 AND JUNE 27, 1999 IS UNAUDITED

INTERIM INFORMATION

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements as
of June 27, 1999 and the nine months ended June 28, 1998 and June 27, 1999
reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include only
normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly state the financial position
and the results of operations for the periods presented and the disclosures
herein are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Operating
results for the interim periods presented are not indicative of the results that
can be expected for a full year.

(b) Revenue Recognition

Revenues are recognized when advertisements are aired.

Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company depreciates the cost
of its property and equipment using the straight-line method over the respective
estimated useful lives. Leasehold improvements are amortized on a straight-line
basis over the shorter of the remaining life of the lease or the useful life of
the improvements.

(d) Long-Lived Assets

The Company follows the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 121, (Statement 121) "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of." Statement 121 requires that
long-lived assets and certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used or
disposed of by an entity be reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes
in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be
recoverable. See note 5 for impairment losses related to fixed assets.

(e) Intangible Assets

Intangible assets represent the portion of the purchase price of station
acquisitions allocated to FCC licenses of those stations and are amortized on a
straight-line basis over 40 years, based on the industry practice of renewing
FCC licenses periodically. The Company assesses the recoverability of this
intangible asset by determining whether the amortization of the intangible asset
balance over its remaining life can be recovered through undiscounted future
operating cash flows of the acquired station. The assessment of the
recoverability of the intangible asset will be impacted if estimated future
operating cash flows are not achieved.

(f) Deferred Financing Costs

Deferred financing costs relate to the refinancing of the Company's debt
and additional debt financing obtained in connection with Company's acquisition
of WXDJ-FM and WRMA-FM in Miami and WLEY-FM in Chicago (see note 6).

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED)
INTERIM INFORMATION AS OF JUNE 27, 1999 AND THE
NINE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 28, 1998 AND JUNE 27, 1999 IS UNAUDITED

Deferred financing costs are being amortized using a method which
approximates the effective interest method over the respective lives of the
related indebtedness.

(g) Barter Transactions

Barter transactions represent advertising time exchanged for promotional
items, advertising, supplies, equipment and services. Revenues from barter
transactions are recognized as income when advertisements are broadcast.
Expenses are recognized when goods or services are received or used. The Company
records barter transactions at the fair value of goods or services received.

(h) Cash Equivalents

Cash equivalents, consisting primarily of interest-bearing money market
accounts and certificates of deposits which have an original maturity date of
less than three months, totaled $12.3 million, $37.6 million and $20.9 million
at September 28, 1997, September 27, 1998 and June 27, 1999 (unaudited),
respectively.

(i) Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated Federal income tax return with its
subsidiaries. The Company accounts for income taxes under the asset and
liability method. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the
future tax consequences attributable to temporary differences between the
financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and
their respective tax bases and operating loss and tax credit carryforwards.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates
expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary
differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax
assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the
period that includes the enactment date.

(j) Advertising Costs

The Company incurs various marketing and promotional costs to add and
maintain listenership. These costs are charged to expense in the period
incurred.

(k) Deferred Commitment Fee

On December 30, 1996 the Company entered into an agreement with a national
advertising agency (the "Agency") whereby the Agency would serve as the
Company's exclusive sales representative for all national sales for a seven-year
period. Pursuant to this agreement, the Agency agreed to pay a commitment fee of
$5.1 million to the Company, of which $1.0 million was paid upon execution of
the agreement and $4.1 million is to be remitted on a monthly basis over a
three-year period. The commitment fee is recognized on a straight-line basis
over the seven-year contractual term of the arrangement as a reduction of Agency
commissions. Deferred commitment fee represents the excess of payments received
from the Agency over the amount recognized.

(l) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

(m) Concentration of Risk

All of the Company's business is conducted in the New York, Miami, Los
Angeles, Chicago, San Antonio and Puerto Rico markets. Net revenue earned from
radio stations in these markets as a percentage of total revenue for the fiscal
years ended September 29, 1996, September 28, 1997, and September 27, 1998 and
nine months ended June 27, 1999 (unaudited) is as follows:

The increase in market concentration risk in Miami and Chicago in fiscal
1997 and 1998 results from the acquisitions of WRMA-FM and WXDJ-FM in Miami and
WYSY-FM in Chicago as discussed in note 3.

(n) Basic and Diluted Net Loss Per Common Share

The Company has presented net loss per common share pursuant to SFAS No.
128, Earnings Per Share and the Securities and Exchange Commission Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 98.

In accordance with Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") Staff
Accounting Bulletin No. 98, certain common stock and common stock equivalents
issued for nominal consideration prior to the initial filing of a registration
statement relating to an initial public offering are treated as outstanding for
the entire period. The Company had no nominal issuances during this period.

Basic net loss per common share was computed by dividing net loss by the
weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for each period
presented. Diluted net loss per common share is computed by giving effect to
common stock equivalents as if they were

(o) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 107, "Disclosures About
Fair Value of Financial Instruments," requires disclosure of fair value of
certain financial instruments. Cash and cash equivalents, receivables, other
current assets and due from related party, as well as accounts payable, accrued
expenses and other current liabilities, as reflected in the consolidated
financial statements, approximate fair value because of the short-term maturity
of these instruments. The estimated fair value of the Company's other long-term
debt instruments approximate the carrying amount as the interest rates
approximates the Company's current borrowing rate for similar debt instruments
of comparable maturity.

Fair value estimates are made at a specific point in time, based on
relevant market information and information about the financial instrument.
These estimates are subjective in nature and involve uncertainties and matters
of significant judgment and therefore cannot be determined with precision.
Changes in assumptions could significantly affect the estimates.

the assets and FCC license of KXMG-AM to One-on-One for a sales price of $18.0
million and recorded a gain of $17.6 million. These transactions are classified
under other income as Gain on sale of AM stations.

Pursuant to the 1994 12 1/2% Senior Notes due 2002 (the "12 1/2% Notes")
(see note 6) the Company is required to use the greater of $25.0 million or 50%
of the net proceeds from any disposition of certain asset sales including the
FCC broadcast licenses of the aforementioned AM stations to make offers to
purchase the 12 1/2% Notes at 110% of the principal value thereof.

On October 17, 1997, the Company made a tender offer to purchase for cash
any and all of the 12 1/2% Notes up to $22.7 million plus accrued interest up
to, but not including the payment date. The amount payable by the Company was
110% of the principal amount of the 12 1/2% Notes. The Company paid $6.3 million
to the noteholders who responded to the tender offer and purchased $5.5 million
in principal amount of 12 1/2% Notes for $6.0 million plus accrued interest of
$0.3 million in November 1997. The Company also repurchased $7.7 million in
principal amount of 12 1/2% Notes for $9.0 million plus accrued interest of $0.4
million in November 1997. The Company recognized a loss on the tender offer and
repurchased notes of $1.6 million, net of income tax benefit of $1.1 million,
due to the premium paid for the 12 1/2% Notes and the subsequent write-off of
the deferred financing costs and original issue discounts related to the 12 1/2%
Notes purchased. This amount has been classified as an extraordinary item in the
accompanying Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Prior to the sale of the assets of WCMQ-AM, the Station operated on the
frequency of 1210 kHz. As part of the sale of WCMQ-AM, the Company entered into
a five-year local marketing agreement ("LMA") with One-on-One in November 1997.
Under the terms of the LMA, the Company began programming and selling
advertising on WCMQ-AM using a newly-authorized frequency of 1700 kHz. The 1700
kHz transmitter is co-located at the 1210 kHz transmitter/antenna site which was
part of the aforementioned asset sale.

The valuation allowance for deferred tax assets as of September 28, 1997,
September 27, 1998 and June 27, 1999 (unaudited) was $17,396,430. In assessing
the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is
more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will
not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent
upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those
temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled
reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income, and tax
planning strategies in making this assessment.

Based upon the level of historical taxable income and projections for
future taxable income over the periods which the deferred tax assets are
deductible, management believes it is more likely than not the Company will
realize the benefits of these deductible differences, net of the existing
valuation allowances. The amount of the deferred tax asset considered
realizable, however, could be reduced in the near term if estimates of future
taxable income during the carryforward period are reduced.

At September 27, 1998, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards
available to offset future taxable income expiring as follows:

(15) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS -- UNAUDITED

Acquisitions

On December 1, 1998, the Company acquired from Pan Caribbean Broadcasting
Corporation the FCC broadcast license and substantially all of the assets of
WDOY-FM in Puerto Rico for $8.3 million. The acquisition of WDOY-FM was financed
from cash on hand and cash from operations.

On April 30, 1999, the Company acquired the FCC broadcast licenses and
substantially all of the assets used or useful in the operation of WMEG-FM and
WEGM-FM, in Puerto Rico for $16.0 million. The Company financed this purchase

split of the common stock outstanding and to reclass all outstanding shares of
Class A Common Stock to shares of Class B Common Stock prior to the IPO. Class A
Common Stock will entitle holders to one vote per share while the holders of
Class B Common Stock will be entitled to ten votes per share. The holders of

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law ("DGCL") provides that
a corporation may indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to
be made a party to any threatened, pending or complete action, suit or
proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than
an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that he
is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or
was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee
or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection
with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner
he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the
corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no
reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Section 145 further
provides that a corporation similarly may indemnify any such person serving in
any such capacity who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to
any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the
corporation to procure a judgment in its favor, against expenses actually and
reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action
or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be
in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no
indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to
which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation
unless and only to the extent that the Delaware Court of Chancery or such other
court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application
that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances
of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such
expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to include in its
certificate of incorporation a provision eliminating or limiting the personal
liability of a director to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary
damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, provided that such provision
shall not eliminate or limit the liability of a director (i) for any breach of
the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for
acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the DGCL (relating to
unlawful payment of dividends and
II-1
<PAGE> 152

unlawful stock purchase and redemption) or (iv) for any transaction from which
the director derived an improper personal benefit.

Our certificate of incorporation provides that our directors shall not be
liable to SBS or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director except to the extent that exculpation from liabilities is not
permitted under the DGCL as in effect at the time the liability is determined.
Our certificate further provides that we shall indemnify our directors and
officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

The directors and officers of SBS are covered under directors' and
officers' liability insurance policies maintained by SBS.

ITEM 15. RECENT SALES OF UNREGISTERED SECURITIES.

On March 25, 1996 we sold 37,500 shares of our redeemable series A
preferred stock and $35.0 million of our 12 1/4% senior secured notes due 2001,
in a transaction not registered under the Securities Act in reliance upon the
exemption provided in Section 4(2) of the Securities Act. We also issued to the
holders of the preferred stock and notes warrants to purchase, in the aggregate,
6% of our common stock on a fully diluted basis which are exercisable no later
than June 29, 1998. We received gross proceeds of $72.5 million from this
offering. The securities were sold to certain qualified institutional buyers
through CIBC Wood Gundy Securities Corp., as exclusive placement agent.

In June 1996, September 1996 and December 1996, we elected to satisfy
interest due on the notes through the issuance of $3,384,843 additional notes
issued at face value. In June 1996, September 1996 and December 1996, we elected
to satisfy the dividends due of $3,773,000 through the issuance of 3,773
additional shares of preferred stock. On March 27, 1997, the notes, the
preferred stock and the warrants were repurchased or redeemed by SBS.

In lieu of paying dividends on the senior preferred stock, we paid
dividends in the form of shares of senior preferred stock on each of September
15, 1997, March 15, 1998 and September 15, 1998 of 11,706, 13,303 and 14,251,
respectively.

On March 27, 1997, we sold 175,000 units comprised of 175,000 shares of our
series A senior exchangeable preferred stock, liquidation preference $1,000 per
share, and warrants to purchase 74,900 shares of our Class B Common Stock, par

(b) FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES

The financial statement schedule -- "Valuation and Qualifying
Accounts" -- appears on page F-29. All other schedules are omitted because they
either are not applicable or the required information is included in the
financial statements or corresponding notes appearing elsewhere in this
registration statement.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

(a) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
SBS pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised
that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such
indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of
1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by SBS of
expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of SBS in
the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such
director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being
registered, we will, unless in the opinion of our counsel the matter has been
settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction
the question whether such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of
such issue.

(b) We hereby undertake:

(1) To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information
concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved in the
transaction, that was not the subject of and included in the registration
statement when it became effective.

(2) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

- To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;

- To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the
estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than
a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth
in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement;

- To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or
any material change to such information in the registration statement.

(3) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement

II-6
<PAGE> 157

relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide
offering thereof.

(4) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
