                                    PART I

ITEM 1.    DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

     Triathlon Broadcasting Company (the "Company") is a radio broadcasting
company which owns and operates radio stations in medium and small-sized
markets in the Midwest and Western United States. The Company currently owns
and operates, provides programming to or sells advertising on 19 FM and 9 AM
radio stations in seven markets: Wichita, Kansas; Lincoln, Nebraska; Omaha,
Nebraska; Little Rock, Arkansas; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Tri Cities,
Washington and Spokane, Washington.

     In the Wichita market, the Company owns and operates two FM and two AM
radio stations and sells advertising pursuant to a joint sales agreement
("JSA") on a third FM radio station (the "Wichita Stations"). In the Lincoln
market, it owns and operates four FM radio stations and one AM radio station
(the "Lincoln Stations"). In each of the Omaha and Tri-Cities markets, it owns
and operates two FM stations (the "Omaha Stations" and the "Tri Cities
Stations"). In the Spokane market, the Company owns and operates two FM radio
stations and one AM radio station and provides services pursuant to two JSAs
on two FM radio stations (the "Silverado JSAs", collectively, the "Silverado
Stations"). In the Little Rock market, the Company has entered into a letter
of intent to purchase, and provides programming and sells advertising pursuant
to a local marketing agreement ("LMA") on one FM radio station (the "Little
Rock Station"). In the Colorado Springs and Spokane markets, the Company
provides programming and has a right to sell advertising pursuant to an LMA
with Pourtales Radio Partnership ("Pourtales") on four FM and four AM radio
stations (the "Pourtales LMA"). To take advantage of certain synergies in these
markets, the Company entered into a joint sales agreement with Citadel
Broadcasting Company ("Citadel") with respect to the stations subject to the
Pourtales LMA (the "Citadel JSA"). The Silverado Stations are not a part of the
Citadel JSA. As described below, the Company intends to acquire 16 stations over
the next 18 months, including the station on which it has a JSA in Wichita,
the Little Rock Station and the eight stations subject to the Pourtales LMA.
In connection with such acquisitions, the Company will also assume an LMA on
two additional stations in the Tri-Cities market (the "Tri-Cities LMA
Stations").

     Assuming the consummation of the Acquisitions (as defined herein), the
Company will own and operate 32 radio stations of which eight will be subject
to the Citadel JSA and will provide programming and sell advertising for two
radio stations pursuant to an LMA and sell advertising on two radio stations
pursuant to JSAs in seven markets and its portfolio of stations will include
the following stations:

    (1)KHAT-AM is not currently operating and the Company is exploring options
for the FCC license for this station.

     (2) The Company will acquire KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM in the event Pourtales
is unable to sell these stations to a third party.

    (3) The Company began selling advertising on these stations pursuant to
the Silverado JSAs on March 1, 1996.

STATIONS OWNED AND/OR OPERATED

    WICHITA STATIONS. On September 13, 1995, the Company acquired the assets
of KRBB-FM operating in the Wichita, Kansas market (the "Initial Wichita
Station") from Marathon Broadcasting Company and the assets of KXLK-FM, KFH-AM
and KQAM-AM also operating in the Wichita, Kansas market from Pourtales for an
aggregate purchase price of $5.9 million.

    In September 1995, the Company entered into a JSA with Pourtales pursuant
to which the Company sells all the advertising time on KEYN-FM, operating in
the Wichita, Kansas market, until the earlier of the fifth anniversary of such
agreement or until the purchase of KEYN-FM by the Company. The Company retains
all of the revenue it receives from the sale of advertising time less monthly
payments to Pourtales of approximately $45,000.

    LINCOLN STATIONS. On January 24, 1996, the Company acquired in a stock
acquisition, KTGL-FM and KZKX-FM each operating in the Lincoln, Nebraska
market from Pourtales (the "Initial Lincoln Stations") for an aggregate
purchase price of $9.7 million.

    To further strengthen its presence in the Lincoln, Nebraska market, on
January 29, 1996 the Company entered into a JSA pursuant to which it sold
advertising on KIBZ-FM and KKNB-FM and on June 13, 1996, acquired the assets
of those stations and of KHAT-AM, from Rock Steady, Inc. for an aggregate
purchase price of approximately $3.3 million.

    OMAHA STATIONS. On April 10, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of
KRRK-FM operating in the Omaha, Nebraska market from 93.3 Inc., for a purchase
price of $2.7 million and the assets of KXKT-FM also operating in the Omaha,
Nebraska market from Valley Broadcasting Company, for a purchase price of $8.1
million.

    TRI-CITIES STATIONS. On April 19, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of
KALE-AM and KIOK-FM each operating in the Tri-Cities, Washington market from
Sterling Realty Organization, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.2 million.

    SPOKANE STATIONS. On May 15, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of
KISC-FM, KNFR-FM and KAQQ-AM each operating in the Spokane, Washington market
from Silverado Broadcasting Company, Inc., for an aggregate purchase price of
approximately $8.8 million (the "Silverado Acquisition"). From March 1, 1996
until the acquisition, the Company provided programming and sold advertising
on those radio stations.

    In connection with the Silverado Acquisition, the Company received the
right to purchase a controlling interest in KCDA-FM at a nominal price. The
current licensee, however, has retained the right to redeem the Company's
purchase rights by paying to the Company an amount equal to 75% of the fair
market value of the station.

    On March 1, 1996, pursuant to the Silverado JSA, the Company began selling
advertising on KNJY-FM and KCDA-FM, each operating in the Spokane, Washington
market. The JSA relating to KNJY-FM renews annually until June 1, 1999 unless
canceled by either party 60 days prior to June 1 of any given year. The JSA
relating to KCDA-FM expires on October 1, 1998. Pursuant to the JSAs, the
Company pays to the station owners a fee determined pursuant to formulas based
on net collected revenues as defined.

STATIONS UNDER LMA AND TO BE ACQUIRED

    LITTLE ROCK STATION. On January 17, 1996, the Company entered in to a
letter of intent with Multi-Market Radio, Inc. ("MMR") to purchase the Little
Rock Station for a purchase price of $4.0 million, subject to adjustment
downward to $3.5 million or upward to $5.0 million based on an independent
valuation (the "MMR Acquisition"). The Company and MMR have obtained an
appraisal from a nationally recognized appraisal firm which valued KOLL-FM at
$4.1 million. The Company anticipates entering into an acquisition agreement
shortly. On March 15, 1996, the Company entered into an LMA with MMR pursuant
to which the Company provides programming and sells advertising on the Little
Rock Station pending the consummation of the MMR Acquisition. In connection
with entering into this LMA, the Company made a payment of $3.5 million to MMR
which will be credited towards the purchase price of the Little Rock Station.

    POURTALES STATIONS. On January 15, 1996, the Company entered into the
Pourtales LMA with respect to radio stations KVOR-AM, KSPZ-FM, KTWK-AM and
KVUU-FM, each operating in the Colorado Springs, Colorado market, and KEYF-FM,
KEYF-AM, KUDY-AM and KKZX-FM, each operating in the Spokane, Washington
market. The Pourtales LMA terminates on the earlier of January 31, 1997 or the
consummation of the sale of these stations to the Company. Although typically
an LMA entitles a party to provide programming for and sell advertising on a
station in return for a fee to the station owner, on the stations subject to
the Pourtales LMA, Citadel sells advertising pursuant to the Citadel JSA. In
conjunction with entering into the Pourtales LMA, Pourtales assigned certain
of its rights under the Citadel JSA to the Company. As a result, the Company
provides programming for these stations while Citadel sells advertising. Under
the Citadel JSA, Citadel, which currently owns other stations in the Colorado
Springs and Spokane markets (the "Citadel Stations"), is entitled to retain a
monthly fee (the "JSA Fee") based on the combined revenues from the sale of
advertising time on the Citadel Stations and the stations subject to the
Pourtales LMA (the "Aggregate Revenues") and the combined operating expenses
of such stations (the "Aggregate Operating Expenses") less a monthly payment
to the Company of 45% of the difference between the Aggregate Revenues and
Aggregate Operating Expenses each month, up to and including June 1997. After
June 1997, the Company is entitled to receive 40% of such difference.
Pourtales is the licensee of the stations subject to the Pourtales LMA and is
responsible for and pays the operating expenses at such stations, except for
programming expenses related to the Pourtales LMA and selling expenses related
to the Citadel JSA. The Citadel JSA will terminate on December 31, 2000 unless
extended for up to two additional consecutive five year terms by either party.

    On January 16, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Pourtales
to acquire the eight radio stations that are subject to the Pourtales LMA,
radio station KEYN-FM subject to a JSA and radio stations KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM,
each operating in the Tri-Cities, Washington market, and to assume an LMA for
radio stations KNLT-FM and KUJ-AM, also operating in the Tri-Cities,
Washington market for an aggregate purchase price of $22.5 million (the
"Pourtales Acquisition"). The Company made a non-refundable deposit in the
form of an irrevocable stand-by letter of credit in the amount of $925,000, in
an escrow account and has made further non-refundable deposits in the
aggregate amount of $2.0 million. If the agreement is terminated by either
party in accordance with its terms, the FCC denies the application or fails to
grant its consent within ten months of the filing of the FCC application or
the Pourtales Acquisition is not consummated by January 30, 1997, the Company
will forfeit the deposit of $2.0 million. The Company will also forfeit the
letter of credit if the Company does not consummate the acquisition of these
stations due to a material breach on its part. Pursuant to the agreement,
Pourtales must use reasonable efforts to sell KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM to a third
party prior to consummation

                                       5




     
<PAGE>





of the Pourtales Acquisition. In the event that such a sale occurs, the
aggregate purchase price for the Pourtales Acquisition will be reduced by the
greater of the actual sale price of KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM or $2.5 million. In
addition, in the event that the Company fails to consummate the Pourtales
Acquisition, Citadel will have the right to purchase the stations subject to
the Pourtales LMA on the same terms as the Company, including the application
of the Company's $2.0 million non-refundable deposit toward the purchase
price, provided FCC approval is obtained.

    In connection with the Pourtales Acquisition the Company will assume
Pourtales' rights and obligations under an LMA to provide services to KNLT-FM
and KUJ-AM (the "Tri-Cities LMA"). Pursuant to the Tri-Cities LMA, the Company
will pay the owner of the stations $22,000 per month, which includes an $8,000
monthly advance for certain expenses. At the end of each 12 month period the
actual expenses will be computed and the Company will pay any shortfall to
such owner or will receive a refund from such owner for any overpayment of
such expenses. The Tri-Cities LMA expires on April 13, 2003.

ADDITIONAL STATIONS TO BE ACQUIRED

    SOUTHERN SKIES STATIONS. To strengthen its position in the Wichita, Kansas
and Little Rock, Arkansas markets, on February 8, 1996, the Company entered
into an agreement with Southern Skies Corporation and its affiliate Arkansas
Skies Corporation (collectively "Southern Skies") to acquire KZSN-FM and
KZSN-AM, and KSSN-FM and KMVK-FM, respectively, for an aggregate purchase
price of $24.5 million (the "Southern Skies Acquisition" and together with the
Pourtales Acquisition, the "Acquisitions"). A portion of the purchase price of
the Southern Skies Acquisition equal to $500,000 will be paid by delivery of
46,189 shares of the Company's Class A Common Stock and the Company has
granted registration rights to Southern Skies with respect to such shares. In
addition, $750,000 will be paid over five years in consideration for one of
the principals entering into a non-competition agreement. The Company has
provided a deposit in the form of an irrevocable stand-by letter of credit in
the amount of approximately $1.2 million. Pursuant to the terms of the
agreement, the Company will forfeit the letter of credit and pay an additional
amount of $1.2 million as liquidated damages if the Company does not
consummate the acquisition of these stations due to a material breach on its
part. The agreement is expressly conditioned upon the FCC's prior consent to
the transaction and the agreement may be terminated by either party for, among
other things, the failure of the FCC to grant such consent by February 8,
1997. The FCC granted its consent to the applications for KZSN-FM and KZSN-AM
on April 29, 1996. A petition to deny the license renewals of KSSN-FM and
KMVK-FM was filed with the FCC alleging Equal Employment Opportunity
violations against Southern Skies. The assignment applications for these
stations is still pending.

The consummation of each of the Acquisitions requires the approval of the FCC.

COMPANY STRATEGY

ACQUISITIONS. The Company's strategy is to expand by acquiring multiple radio
stations in medium and small-sized markets and to enhance the financial
performance of the stations it owns and operates through the application of
management techniques developed or refined by its officers and consultants
through extensive experience with large, medium and small-sized radio market
operations. The Company believes that its extensive managerial expertise in
operating radio stations in all size markets can be employed effectively to
improve operating results of its radio stations and may provide the Company a
competitive advantage in medium and small-sized markets. Pursuant to the
recently enacted

                                       6




     
<PAGE>





Telecommunications Act of 1996 (the "Recent Legislation") the Federal
Communications Commission ("FCC") modified its ownership rules to generally
(i) eliminate the limit on the total number of radio stations one entity may
own nationally and (ii) increase the number of radio stations one entity may
own locally. See "Federal Regulation of Radio Broadcasting." The Company
intends to pursue acquisition opportunities made possible by the Recent
Legislation and intends to increase the total number of stations it owns both
nationally and locally. The Company believes that multiple station ownership
especially in its targeted medium to small-sized markets will achieve cost
savings by eliminating duplicative sales and overhead expenses and enhance
competitive strength and revenues by offering advertisers a broader range of
advertising packages.

    As a result of the Recent Legislation, as a part of the Company's strategy
to expand in both new and existing markets and to enhance the financial
performance of the stations it currently owns, the Company recently entered
into several agreements and a letter of intent to purchase a total of 16
stations over the next 18 months including 9 stations which the Company
already provides programming to or sells advertising on. In addition, in
connection with one of the acquisitions, the Company will assume an LMA on two
stations. See "Federal Regulation of Radio Broadcasting." Assuming the
consummation of the Acquisitions, the Company will own and operate 32 radio
stations and will provide programming and sell advertising on two stations
pursuant to an LMA and sell advertising on two stations pursuant to JSAs in
seven markets. There can be no assurance that the Company can consummate any
or all of the Acquisitions.

OPERATIONS. The Company believes that its management group and its advisors
have substantially greater experience in the management of radio stations in
all market sizes than is generally available to other companies operating
stations in medium and small-sized markets. The Company believes that such
expertise can be applied to improve the financial performance and Broadcast
Cash Flow of medium and small-sized market stations by enhancing revenues
while controlling costs. The Company seeks to enhance the financial
performance of its stations through the application of management techniques
developed or refined by its officers and consultants through extensive
experience with large, medium and small-sized radio market operations. These
techniques include (i) targeted programming designed to increase audience
share within specific demographic groups considered to be particularly
attractive to advertisers, (ii) sales and marketing programs intended to
increase both audience share and advertising time, from which substantially
all of the Company's revenues are derived, (iii) effective advertising rate
management and advertising inventory control and (iv) the implementation of
operating efficiencies to reduce costs.

    The Company conducts extensive market research to refine and enhance
programming at each of the stations. The stations currently employ a variety
of programming formats, including "Soft" Adult Contemporary, "Current" Adult
Contemporary, "Hot" Country, Classic Rock, Oldies, Album-Oriented Rock,
Alternative Rock, Nostalgia, Middle-of-the-Road, Classic Hits and
Talk/News/Sports. The Company believes that selling advertising time in medium
and small-sized markets is less dependent upon ratings and more dependent upon
aggressive marketing, promotional and selling techniques. Local advertising
and promotional tie-ins with local events are designed to heighten public
awareness of the

                                       7




     
<PAGE>





stations. The Company believes that the ownership of groups of radio stations
enables it to offer advertisers a broader range of creative advertising
packages and enables the Company to derive increased benefits from its
advertising rate management and advertising inventory control techniques.

    The Company seeks to reduce expenses at the stations by implementing cost
controls, operating the stations as groups and lowering overhead by combining
and centralizing administrative and financial functions of its stations. In
operating each of the stations, the Company focuses on the development of
strong decentralized management which will be responsible for the day-to-day
operation of the station and will receive incentive compensation based on such
station's financial performance.

</TABLE>

ADVERTISING

      The primary source of the Company's revenues is the sale of broadcasting
time for local, regional and national advertising. A station's sales staff
generates most of its local advertising sales, which comprises approximately
90% of the Company's revenues. To generate national advertising sales, the
Company engages an advertising representative for each of its stations
specializing in national advertising sales who is compensated on a
commission-only basis. Most advertising contracts are short-term and generally
run only for a few weeks.

      The Company believes that radio is one of the most efficient,
cost-effective means for advertisers to reach specific demographic groups.
Radio is a precisely targeted medium and is highly flexible due to the short
lead time between production and broadcast and the relative ease of production
of commercials. To ensure that an advertising message will be heard mainly by
its targeted customer base, an advertiser can choose to advertise on a station
with a format that appeals to a specific demographic group. In addition, radio
can more readily reach people in the workplace and in their cars than
television and other media.

      Advertising rates charged by radio stations are based primarily on a
stations's ability to attract audiences in the demographic groups targeted by
advertisers (as measured by ratings service surveys quantifying the number of
listeners tuned to the station at various times of the day and week), on the
number of stations in the market competing for the same demographic group and
on the supply of and demand for radio advertising time. Rates are generally
highest during morning and afternoon drive-time hours.

      The number of advertisements that are broadcast each hour depends on the
format of a particular station. The Company estimates the number of
advertisements broadcast per hour that can maximize available revenue dollars
without jeopardizing listening levels. Although the number of advertisements
broadcast during a given time may vary, the total number of slots available
for broadcast advertising on a particular station generally does not vary
significantly from year to year.

COMPETITION

      Radio broadcasting is a highly competitive business. The Company's
stations compete for listeners and advertising revenues directly with other
radio stations within their markets. Radio stations compete for listeners
primarily on the basis of program content and by hiring high-profile talent
with appeal to a particular demographic group. The Company competes for
advertising revenues principally through effective promotion of its stations'
listener demographics and audience shares, and through the number of listeners
in a target group that can be reached for the price charged for the air-time.
The Company's stations also compete for advertising revenues with other media,
including broadcast television, cable television, newspapers, magazines,
direct mail, coupons and billboard advertising. By building in each of its
markets a strong listenership base comprised of a specific demographic group,
the Company is able to attract advertisers seeking to reach those listeners.
Other factors that affect a station's competitive position include its
authorized power, terrain, assigned frequency, audience characteristics, local
program acceptance and the number and characteristics of other stations in the
market area.

      The radio broadcasting 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 and by digital audio
broadcasting. See "--Federal Regulation of Broadcasting -- Proposed Changes."
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 disks. There can be no assurance, 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. The Company also competes
with other radio station groups to purchase additional stations. Some of these
other groups are owned or operated by companies that are larger and have more
financial and other resources than the Company.

      The Recent Legislation will permit other radio broadcasting companies to
enter the markets in which the Company operates or may operate in the future,
some of which may be larger and have more financial resources than the
Company. There can be no assurance that the Company's existing stations or
those to be acquired pursuant to the Acquisition will be able to maintain or
increase their respective current audience ratings or advertising revenue
market share.

      The Company's revenues vary throughout the year. As is the case
throughout the radio broadcasting industry, the Company's first quarter
generally reflects the lowest revenues and its fourth quarter generally
reflects the highest revenues for each year.

EMPLOYEES

      As of March 31, 1996 the Company had approximately 230 full and
part-time employees. No employees of the stations are represented by labor
unions. The Company's relations with their employees historically have been
good.

FEDERAL REGULATION OF RADIO BROADCASTING

      The ownership, operation and sale of radio stations are subject to the
jurisdiction of the FCC, which acts under authority granted by the
Communications Act. Among other things, the FCC assigns frequency bands for
broadcasting; determines the particular frequencies, locations and operating
power of stations; issues, renews, revokes and modifies station licenses;
determines whether to approve changes in ownership or control of station
licenses; regulates equipment used by stations; adopts and implements
regulations and policies that directly or indirectly affect the ownership,
operation

                                      11




     
<PAGE>





and employment practices of stations; and has the power to impose penalties
for violations of its rules or the Communications Act.

      The following is a brief summary of certain provisions of the
Communications Act and of specific FCC regulations and policies. Reference
should be made to the Communications Act, FCC rules and the public notices and
rulings of the FCC for further information concerning the nature and extent of
federal regulation of broadcast stations.

      FCC Licenses. Radio stations operate pursuant to broadcasting licenses
that are granted by the FCC for maximum terms of seven years (the FCC has
proposed in a recent rulemaking, raising the maximum term to eight years as
permitted by the Recent Legislation) and are subject to renewal upon
application to the FCC. During certain periods when renewal applications are
pending, petitions to deny license renewals can be filed by interested
parties, including members of the public. Pursuant to the Recent Legislation,
the FCC is required to grant the renewal application if the FCC finds the
station has served the public interest, convenience, and necessity, there have
been no serious violations by the licensee of the Communications Act or the
rules and regulations of the FCC, and there have been no other violations by
the licensee of the Communications Act or the rules and regulations of the FCC
that, when taken together, would constitute a pattern of abuse.

      The following table sets forth the market, power, frequency and date on
which the FCC license expires for each station that the Company (i) owns and
operates, (ii) intends to acquire pursuant to the Acquisitions, (iii)
currently provides or intends to provide services to pursuant to LMAs or (iv)
currently sells or intends to sell advertising on pursuant to JSAs:

         Ownership Matters. The Communications Act prohibits the assignment of
a broadcast license or the transfer of control of a broadcast licensee without
the prior approval of the FCC. In determining whether to assign, transfer,
grant or renew a broadcast license, the FCC considers a number of factors
pertaining to the licensee, including compliance with various rules limiting
common ownership of media properties, the "character" of the licensee and
those persons holding "attributable" interests therein and compliance with the
Communications Act's limitations on alien ownership.

         To obtain the FCC's prior consent to transfer or assign a broadcast
license, appropriate applications must be filed with the FCC. If the transfer
or assignment application involves a "substantial change" in ownership or
control, the application is placed on public notice for a period of
approximately 30 days during which petitions to deny the application may be
filed by interested parties, including members of the public. If the transfer
or assignment application

                                      13




     
<PAGE>





does not involve a "substantial change" in ownership or control, it is a "pro
forma" application. The "pro forma" application is nevertheless subject to
having informal objections filed against it. If the FCC grants a transfer or
assignment application, interested parties have approximately 30 days from
public notice of the grant to seek reconsideration or review of that grant.
The FCC normally has approximately an additional 10 days to set aside on its
own motion such grant.

         Pursuant to the Recent Legislation, the FCC modified its ownership
rules to eliminate the limit on the number of radio stations one entity may
own nationally and to liberalize the limits on the number of radio stations
one entity may own locally. As to such local limits, ownership rules now
provide that: (i) in a market with 45 or more commercial radio stations, an
entity may own up to eight commercial radio stations, not more than five of
which are in the same service (FM or AM); (ii) in a market with between 30 and
44 (inclusive) commercial radio stations, an entity may own up to seven
commercial radio stations, not more than four of which are in the same
service; (iii) in a market with between 15 and 29 (inclusive) commercial radio
stations, an entity may own up to six commercial radio stations, not more than
four of which are in the same service; and (iv) in a market with 14 or fewer
commercial radio stations, an entity may own up to five commercial radio
stations, not more than three of which are in the same service, except that an
entity may not own more than 50% of the stations in such market. FCC ownership
rules continue to permit an entity to own one FM and one AM station locally
regardless of market size.

         For the purposes of these rules, in general a station being
programmed pursuant to an LMA by an entity is not counted as an owned station
for the purposes of determining the programming entity's local ownership
limits unless the entity already owns a radio station in the market of the
station with which the entity has the LMA; a station whose advertising time is
being sold pursuant to a JSA is not counted as an owned station of the entity
selling the advertising time even if that entity owns a station in the market
of the station with which the entity has the JSA.

         The Communications Act and FCC rules also prohibit the common
ownership, operation or control of a radio broadcast station and a television
broadcast station serving the same geographic market, subject to a waiver of
such prohibition for stations located in the largest television markets if
certain conditions are satisfied (the Recent Legislation directs the FCC to
extend such waiver policy to the top 50 television markets), and of a radio
broadcast station and a daily newspaper serving the same geographic market.
Under these rules, absent waivers, the Company would not be permitted to
acquire any daily newspaper or television broadcast station (other than
low-power television) in any geographic market in which it owns broadcast
properties.

         The FCC generally applies its ownership limits to "attributable"
interests held by an individual, corporation, partnership or other
association. In the case of corporations holding, or through subsidiaries
controlling, broadcast licenses, the interests of officers, directors and
those who, directly or indirectly, have the right to vote 5% or more of the
corporation's stock (or 10% or more of such stock in the case of insurance
companies, investment companies and bank trust departments that are passive
investors) are generally attributable. The FCC has outstanding a notice of
proposed rulemaking that, among others things, seeks comment on whether the
FCC should modify its attribution rules by attributing, under certain
circumstances, non-voting stock or debt. The Company cannot predict the
outcome of this proceeding or how modified rules will affect the Company's
business. None of the Company's officers or directors have an attributable
interest in any broadcast stations other than those attributable to the
Company, except that Norman Feuer, the Company's President and Chief Executive
Officer, provides radio programming consulting services to Pourtales for the
stations it owns in the Tri-Cities, Washington market as well as the stations
subject to the Tri-Cities LMA until the consummation of the Pourtales
Acquisition. In addition, Robert F.X. Sillerman and Howard Tytel are officers
and directors of SFX Broadcasting, Inc., a corporation engaged in the business
of acquiring and operating radio stations in the top 70 markets, and of which
Mr. Sillerman directly is the controlling stockholder. Mr. Sillerman also
holds non-voting common and preferred stock interests, as well as voting
common stock interests representing less than 5% of the outstanding voting
power, in MMR, which has attributable interests in radio stations in small and
medium markets

                                      14




     
<PAGE>





primarily located in the Eastern United States, but heretofore the FCC has not
considered Mr. Sillerman's interests in MMR attributable. However, Mr.
Sillerman's non-voting stock interests in MMR are convertible into voting
stock interests under certain circumstances, including the receipt of
necessary FCC approval. Mr. Sillerman has filed applications with the FCC to
convert his non-voting stock interests in MMR into voting stock interest.
Furthermore, SFX and MMR have entered into a merger agreement pursuant to
which, subject to certain conditions including FCC approval, MMR will become a
subsidiary of SFX. The Company believes Mr. Sillerman's interests in the
Company to be non-attributable at present. The FCC is examining through
outstanding rule making and adjudicatory proceedings whether to change the
criteria for considering an interest to be attributable. Some commentators in
the rule making proceedings have urged that the test of attribution should not
be voting power but rather influence over the licensee. Fisher Wayland Cooper
Leader & Zaragoza LLP, FCC counsel to the Company, has advised the Company
that to the extent that the FCC adopts this standard the contractual
arrangements between Sillerman Communications Management Corporation ("SCMC")
(a Company controlled by Mr. Sillerman that provides advisory services to the
Company and several other radio companies, including SFX and MMR)and the
Company may cause Messrs. Sillerman and Tytel's interests in the Company to be
attributable. If the FCC were to determine that Messrs. Sillerman and Tytel's
interests in the Company were attributable, then they may be required to
reduce the number of their attributable interests to the then-applicable
permissible limits contained in the FCC's ownership rules should the Company
and other entities in which Messrs. Sillerman and Tytel would then have an
attributable interest, own in the aggregate in excess of the local ownership
limits in a given market, which reduction could have a material adverse effect
on the Company.

         Under certain circumstances, the FCC's "cross-interest" policy may
prohibit one party from acquiring an attributable interest in one media outlet
and a substantial non-attributable economic interest in another media outlet
in the same market. If a transaction involving SFX, which has received FCC
consent to own radio stations in the Wichita market, is consummated before the
FCC approves of the Pourtales Acquisition, the FCC will need to determine if
its cross-interest policy is invoked by the Company's acquisition of KEYN-FM,
which also operates in the Wichita, Kansas market along with the Company's
already approved Wichita holdings. In its application for consent to acquire
KEYN-FM, the Company will need to demonstrate that competition for the sale of
spot advertising in the Wichita, Kansas market will not be impaired as a
result of Robert F.X. Sillerman's passive interest in the Company and his
active interest in SFX. The Company believes that because Mr. Sillerman is not
active in the Company's daily operations and is not an officer or director of
the Company, the FCC is likely not to invoke its cross-interest policy.
However, there can be no assurance that the FCC will not invoke its
cross-interest policy and prohibit the acquisitions of such station by the
Company.

         The Communications Act prohibits the issuance of a broadcast license
to, or the holding of a broadcast license by, any corporation of which more
than 20% of the capital stock is owned of record or voted by non-U.S. citizens
or their representatives or by a foreign government or a representative
thereof, or by any corporation organized under the laws of a foreign country
(collectively, "Aliens"). The Communications Act also authorizes the FCC, if
the FCC determines that it would be in the public interest, to prohibit the
issuance of a broadcast license to, or the holding of a broadcast license by,
any corporation directly or indirectly controlled by any other corporation of
which more than 25% of the capital stock is owned of record or voted by
Aliens. The Company has been advised that FCC staff has interpreted this
provision to require a public interest finding in favor of such a grant or
holding before a broadcast license may be granted to or held by any such
corporation and have made such a finding only in limited circumstances. The
FCC has issued interpretations of existing law under which these restrictions
in modified form apply to other forms of business organizations, including
partnerships. As a result of these provisions, the licenses granted to the
radio station subsidiaries of the Company by the FCC could be revoked if,
among other restrictions imposed by the FCC, more than 25% of the Company's
stock were directly or indirectly owned or voted by Aliens. The Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company contains limitations on
Alien ownership and control of the Company that are substantially similar to
those contained in the Communications Act.

         Local Marketing Agreements. Over the past few years, a number of
radio stations have entered into what have commonly been referred to as "local
marketing agreements" or "LMAs." While these agreements may take varying
forms, under a typical LMA, separately owned and licensed radio stations agree
to enter into cooperative arrangements of varying sorts, subject to compliance
with the requirements of antitrust laws and with the FCC's rules and policies.
Under these types of arrangements, separately-owned stations could agree to
function cooperatively in terms of programming, advertising sales, etc.,
subject to the requirement that the licensee of each station maintain
independent control over the programming and operations of its own station.
One typical type of LMA is a programming agreement between two
separately-owned radio stations serving a common service area, whereby the
licensee of one station programs substantial portions of the broadcast day on
the other licensee's station, subject to ultimate editorial and other controls
being exercised by the latter licensee, and sells advertising time during such
program segments. Such arrangements are an extension of the concept of "time
brokerage" agreements, under which a licensee of a station sells blocks of
time on its station to an entity or entities which program the blocks of time
and which sell their own commercial advertising announcements during the time
periods in question.

         The FCC has determined that issues of joint advertising sales should
be left to enforcement by antitrust authorities and has specifically revised
its "cross-interest" policy to make that policy inapplicable to time brokerage
arrangements. Furthermore, over the past few years, the staff of the FCC's
Mass Media Bureau has held that LMAs are not contrary to the Communications
Act provided that the licensee of the station which is being substantially
programmed by another entity maintains complete responsibility for and control
over programming and operations of its broadcast station and assures
compliance with applicable FCC rules and policies.

         The FCC's multiple ownership rules specifically permit radio station
LMAs to continue to be entered into and implemented, but provide that a
station brokering more than 15% of the time on another station serving the
same market will be considered to have an attributable ownership interest in
the brokered station for purposes of the FCC's multiple ownership rules. In a
market in which the Company owns a radio station, the Company would not be
permitted to enter into an LMA with another local radio station which it could
not own under the local ownership rules, unless the Company's programming
constitutes 15% or less of the other local station's programming time on a
weekly basis. The current FCC rules also prohibit a broadcast licensee from
simulcasting more than 25% of its programming on another station in the same
broadcast service (i.e., AM-AM or FM-FM) through a time brokerage or LMA
arrangement where the brokered and brokering stations which it owns or
programs serve substantially the same area.

         Joint Sales Agreements. Under a typical JSA the licensee of 1 radio
station sells the advertising time of another licensee's radio station, JSAs
are currently not deemed by the FCC to be attributable. However, the FCC has
outstanding a notice of proposed rule making concerning, among other things,
whether JSAs should be considered attributable interests. The attribution with
respect to radio station JSAs becomes less important because of the general
liberalization of the ownership limits on radio stations authorized by the
Recent Legislation. If JSAs become attributable interests, the Company would
be required to terminate any JSA that the Company might have with a radio
station with which the Company could not have an LMA.

         Programming and Operation. The Communications Act requires
broadcasters to serve the "public interest." The FCC gradually has relaxed or
eliminated many of the more formalized procedures it had developed in the past
to promote the broadcast of certain types of programming responsive to the
needs of a station's community of license. A licensee continues to be
required, however, to present programming that is responsive to issues of the
station's community, and to maintain certain records demonstrating such
responsiveness. Complaints from listeners concerning a station's programming
often will be considered by the FCC when it evaluates renewal applications of
a licensee, although such complaints may be filed at any time and generally
may be considered by the FCC at any time. Stations also must follow various
rules promulgated under the Communications Act that regulate, among other
things, political advertising, sponsorship identifications, the advertisement
of contests and lotteries, obscene and indecent broadcasts,

                                      16

and technical operations, including limits on radio frequency radiation. In
addition, licensees must develop and implement affirmative action programs
designed to promote equal employment opportunities, and must submit reports to
the FCC with respect to these matters on an annual basis and in connection
with a renewal application.

         Failure to observe these or other rules and policies can result in
the imposition of various sanctions, including monetary forfeitures, the grant
of "short" (less than the maximum) renewal terms or, for particularly
egregious violations, the denial of a license renewal application or the
revocation of a license.

         Proposed Changes. The Congress and/or the FCC have under
consideration, and in the future may consider and adopt, new laws, regulations
and policies regarding a wide variety of matters that could affect, directly
or indirectly, the operation, ownership and profitability of the Company's
radio broadcast stations, result in the loss of audience share and advertising
revenues for the Company's radio broadcast stations, and affect the ability of
the Company to acquire additional radio broadcast stations or finance such
acquisitions. Such matters may include: changes to the license renewal
process; spectrum use or other fees on FCC licensees; revisions to the FCC's
equal employment opportunity rules and other matters relating to minority and
female involvement in the broadcasting industry; proposals to change rules
relating to political broadcasting; technical and frequency allocation
matters; proposals to permit expanded use of FM translator stations; proposals
to restrict or prohibit the advertising of beer, wine and other alcoholic
beverages on radio; changes in the FCC's cross-interest, multiple ownership
and cross-ownership policies; changes to broadcast technical requirements;
delivery by telephone companies of audio and video programming to the home

advertising expenses by advertisers; and proposals to auction the right to use
the radio broadcast spectrum to the highest bidder, instead of granting FCC
licenses and subsequent license renewals.

         The FCC is currently considering whether to authorize the use of a
new technology, digital audio broadcasting ("DAB"), to deliver audio
programming. DAB may provide a medium for the delivery by satellite or
terrestrial means of multiple new audio programming formats to local and
national audiences. It is not known at this time precisely how this technology
may be used in the future by existing radio broadcast stations either on
existing or alternate broadcasting frequencies.

         The Company cannot predict what other matters might be considered in
the future by the FCC or Congress, nor can it judge in advance what impact, if
any, the implementation of the Recent Legislation or any of these proposals or
changes might have on its business.

ITEM 2.         DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

      The types of properties required to support each of the Company's radio
stations include offices, studios, transmitter sites and antenna sites. A
station's studios are generally housed with its offices in downtown or
business districts. Transmitter sites are generally located so as to provide
maximum market coverage.

      The Company's corporate headquarters are leased and located in a
facility in San Diego, California covering approximately 1,000 square feet of
office space. The studios, offices, transmitter and operations sites of the
Initial Wichita Stations and the Company's Lincoln, Nebraska Stations are
located in leased facilities.

      Upon the consummation of the Acquisitions, the Company will own or lease
all of its offices, studios and transmitter sites with lease terms that will
expire within the next 30 years. The Company does not anticipate any
difficulties in assuming such leases or renewing those leases that expire
within the next five years or in leasing other space if required.

      No particular interest in real property is material to the Company's
overall operations. The Company believes that its properties are in good
condition and suitable for its current and foreseeable operations; however,
the Company continually looks for opportunities to upgrade its properties.

ITEM 3.         LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      The Company is involved in litigation from time to time in the ordinary
course of its business. The Company believes that there are no material
threatened or pending legal proceedings against the Company which if adversely
decided would have a material effect on the financial condition or prospects
of the Company.

ITEM 4.         SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

      The Company did not submit any matters to a vote of security-holders
during the quarter ended March 31, 1996.

      On June 20, 1996, the closing sales price of the Class A Common Stock
on Nasdaq was $8.625. On June 16, 1996, the last reported trading day for the
Depositary Shares, the closing sales prices was $10 per Depositary Share. The
Company believes that as of June 20, 1996, there were in excess of 2,000
beneficial owners in the aggregate for the Class A Common Stock and the
Depositary Shares.

      The Company has not paid any cash dividends since its inception. The
holders of the Depositary Shares are entitled to receive, when, as, and if
dividends are declared on the Preferred Stock by the Board of Directors out of
funds legally available therefor, cumulative preferential dividends from the
issue date of the Depositary Shares, accruing at the rate per Depositary Share
of $.945 per annum, payable quarterly in arrears on each June 30, September
30, December 31 and March 31 or, if any such date is not a business day, on
the next succeeding business day. The first dividend payment will be for the
period from the issue that upon conversion or redemption of the Depositary
Shares the Company may elect to pay accrued unpaid dividends in shares of
Class A Common Stock. Accumulated unpaid dividends will bear interest at a
rate of 10.5% per annum. Except for the dividends with respect to the
Depositary Shares, the Company intends to retain future earnings, if any, to
finance the development and expansion of its business and, therefore, does not
anticipate paying any cash dividends on its other securities in the
foreseeable future. The decision whether to pay dividends will be made by the
Board of Directors in light of conditions then existing, including the
Company's results of operations, financial condition and requirements,
business conditions and other factors. No dividends will be paid on the Class
A Common Stock, including shares issued upon the conversion of Depositary
Shares, or any other class of capital stock of the Company unless and until
all dividends with respect to the Preferred Stock (and thereby the Depositary
Shares) have been paid.

      The Company has received a commitment from AT&T Capital Corporation
("AT&T") to enter into a credit agreement (the "Proposed Credit Agreement").
It is anticipated that upon the occurrence and during the pendency of an event
of default under the Proposed Credit Agreement, the Company's ability to pay
cash dividends with respect to the Depositary Shares will be restricted. See
"Item 6. Management's Discussion and Analysis or Plan of Operation."

ITEM 6.   MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OR PLAN OF OPERATION


INTRODUCTION

      The Company currently owns and operates, provides programming to or
sells advertising on 19 FM and 9 AM radio stations in seven markets: Wichita,
Kansas; Lincoln, Nebraska; Omaha, Nebraska; Little Rock, Arkansas; Colorado
Springs, Colorado; Tri-Cities, Washington and Spokane, Washington.

      The performance of a radio station group, such as the Company, is
customarily measured by its ability to generate Broadcast Cash Flow. Broadcast
Cash Flow is defined as net revenues less station operating expenses and
excludes depreciation, amortization and corporate and non-cash compensation
expenses. Broadcast Cash Flow, although not calculated in accordance with
GAAP, is widely used in the broadcasting industry as a measure of a radio
broadcasting company's operating performance. Broadcast Cash Flow is not an
alternative to operating income, net income or net cash provided by operating
activities or any other measure for determining the Company's operating
performance or liquidity which is calculated in accordance with GAAP.

      The primary source of the Company's revenues is from the sale of radio
advertising time. The Company's most significant station operating expenses
are employee salaries and commissions, programming expenses and advertising
and promotional expenses. The Company strives to control these expenses by
working closely with local station management.

      The Company's revenues are primarily affected by the advertising rates
charged by radio stations. The Company's advertising rates are in large part
based on a station's ability to attract audiences in the demographic groups
targeted by its advertisers, as measured principally by Arbitron on a
quarterly basis. Because audience ratings in local markets are crucial to a
station's financial success, the Company endeavors to develop strong listener
loyalty. In addition, revenues of radio stations may be affected by many other
factors including: (i) the popularity of programming; (ii) regulatory
restrictions on types of programming or advertising (such as beer, wine,
liquor and cigarette advertising); (iii) competition within national, regional
or local markets from programming on other stations and from other media; and
(iv) loss of market share to other technologies. See "Business."

      The number of advertisements that can be broadcast without jeopardizing
listening levels (and the resulting ratings) is limited in part by the format
of a particular station. The Company will strive to maximize station revenue
by managing the number of commercials available for sale and adjusting prices
based upon local market conditions. In the broadcasting industry, radio
stations often utilize trade or barter agreements, which exchange advertising
time for goods or services (such as travel or lodging), instead of for cash.
The Company seeks to minimize its use of trade agreements.

      The Company's advertising contracts are generally short-term. The
Company generates most of its revenue from local advertising, which is sold
primarily by a station's sales staff. To generate national advertising sales,
the Company engages independent advertising sales representatives that
specialize in national sales for each of its stations.

      The Company's revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the
radio broadcasting industry, the Company's first calendar quarter generally
produces the lowest revenues for the year and the fourth calendar quarter
generally produces the highest revenues for the year. The Company's operating
results in any period may be affected by the incurrence of advertising and
promotion expenses that do not necessarily produce commensurate revenues until
the impact of the advertising and promotion is realized in future periods.


                                      20

      The Company may experience continuing net losses due to anticipated high
levels of depreciation and amortization arising from the acquisitions as well
as interest expense arising under the Proposed Credit Agreement and any future
borrowings resulting from station acquisitions and financing therefor.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

      Triathlon Broadcasting Company reflecting the actual results from April
1, 1995 through March 31, 1996. Radio broadcast operations of the Company
commenced on September 13, 1995 as a result of the Company's Initial Public
Offering and simultaneous acquisition of the Initial Wichita Stations. The
same station pro forma comparison compares the Wichita and Lincoln stations
owned at March 31,1996 as if owned for the 12 months ended March 31, 1996 and
1995.

      Net revenues (total revenues less agency commissions) for the year ended
March 31, 1996 were $3,169,271. On a same station basis, pro forma net
revenues increased 22.6% to $7,992,833 for the year ended March 31, 1996 from
$6,521,054 for the year ended March 31, 1995 principally attributable to
improved revenues at the Lincoln stations due to improved ratings.



                                      21




     
<PAGE>





      Station operating expenses for the year ended March 31, 1996 were
$2,723,975. On a same station basis, pro forma station operating expenses
increased 18.9% to $6,400,958 for the year ended March 31, 1996 from
$5,385,262 for the year ended March 31, 1995 principally attributable to
increased variable selling expenses commensurate with increased revenues.

      Broadcast Cash Flow for year ended March 31, 1996 was $445,296, with a
Broadcast Cash Flow Margin of 14%. On a same station basis, pro forma
Broadcast Cash Flow increased 40.2% to $1,591,875 for the year ended March 31,
1996 from $1,135,792 for the year ended March 31, 1995 due to the factors
described above.

      Depreciation and amortization expenses for the year ended March 31, 1996
was $321,104.

      Corporate general and administrative expenses consisting primarily of
officer's salary, professional fees and expenses and office expenses for the
year ended March 31, 1996 were $547,891 which includes approximately $100,000 in
fees paid to Sillerman Communications Management Corporation.

      The Company recorded non-cash compensation expense of $273,369 to
reflect the issuance of 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to Mr. Miller,
244,890 shares of Class B Common Stock to Mr. Feuer, options to purchase
80,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to advisors of the Company and cash-only
stock appreciation rights and other stock options with respect to 27,000
shares of Class A Common Stock to officers and directors. The amount of the
compensation expense represents (i) the value of the shares issued to Mr.
Miller, deemed to be $70,000 and charged as compensation expense at the date of
the Initial Public Offering, (ii) the value of the shares issued to Mr. Feuer,
deemed to be $680,000 to be amortized at $34,000 per quarter over the five year
term of Mr. Feuer's employment agreement, (iii) compensation expense for the
cash-only stock appreciation rights of $26,719 reflecting the excess of the
quoted market price of the Company's Class A Common Stock on the respective
measurement dates over the floor price, and (iv) compensation expense for the
stock options based on the difference between the quoted market price over the
exercise price on the date of grant. The Company will incur
non-cash compensation expense of (i) approximately $34,000 per quarter through
September 2000 in connection with the vesting of the Class B Common Stock and
(ii) approximately $55,000 per quarter through December 1997 in connection
with the issuance of options to acquire Class A Common Stock to certain of the
Company's advisors. There may be additional charges related to the cash-only
stock appreciation rights which will be based on the market value if the
Company's Class A Common Stock.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

      Operating loss (net revenues less total operating expenses) for the year
ended March 31, 1996 was $697,068 due to the factors described above.

      Interest income for the year ended March 31, 1996 was $239,089
resulting from the Company's investment of idle cash which will be used to
complete the Acquisitions.

      Interest expense, primarily attributable to borrowings associated with the
Initial Lincoln Acquisitions was $590,062.

      The extraordinary loss of $320,000 represents the write-off of the
unamortized deferred financing costs associated with the early extinguishment of
the debt associated with the Initial Lincoln Acquisitions, which was repaid
prior to year end.

      Net loss for the year ended March 31, 1996 was $1,367,390 due to the
factors described above.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

      The Company's principal source of funds has been the net proceeds from
the Initial Public Offering of approximately $12,900,000, a $9,000,000 credit
agreement from AT&T (the "Credit Agreement") and net proceeds from the
Preferred Stock Offering of approximately $49,400,000. In April 1996, the
underwriters of the Preferred Stock Offering exercised their over-allotment
option and the Company received net proceeds of approximately $6,290,000. The
purchase price of the Wichita Stations, Lincoln Stations, the Omaha Stations,
the Tri-Cities Stations, the deposit of $3,500,000 for the Little Rock Station
and the funding of certain deposits and letters of credit in connection with
the Acquisitions, together approximating $41,625,000, were financed with
proceeds from the Initial Public Offering, the

                                      22




     
<PAGE>





Credit Agreement and the Preferred Stock Offering. The Credit Agreement was
repaid with proceeds from the Preferred Stock Offering.

      Cash flow used in operating activities for the year ended March 31, 1996
totaled $972,113. Cash flow used for investing activities for this same period
was $22,137,073 and related to the acquisition of the Initial Wichita
Stations, the Initial Lincoln Stations and deposits and other costs of pending
transactions. Cash flow provided by financing activities for the Company for
the same period totaled $59,954,411 and related primarily to the Initial
Public Offering and the Preferred Stock Offering.

      The Company has received a commitment letter from AT&T for the Proposed
Credit Agreement of up to $40,000,000 which will be used to fund a portion of
the purchase price of the Southern Skies Acquisition and Pourtales
Acquisition. Pursuant to the proposal, the amount of funding available under
the Proposed Credit Agreement will be limited to an amount, which equals 5.5
times the combined historical 12-month trailing EBITDA (defined as earnings
before interest, taxes depreciation and amortization). The calculation of such
EBITDA is made on a pro forma basis which includes the trailing 12 month
operating cash flow of the stations currently owned and/or operated by the
Company and the stations subject to the Acquisitions. There can be no
assurance that the Company will be able to enter into the Proposed Credit
Agreement or that the stations will achieve the requisite cash flow levels
required thereunder to obtain the financing necessary to fund the
Acquisitions. In the event the Company does not enter into the Proposed Credit
Agreement there can be no assurance it will otherwise be able to obtain the
financing necessary to consummate the Acquisitions. The Company will be entitled
to prepay the Proposed Credit Agreement at any time, in integral multiples of
$500,000, subject to a prepayment premium declining from 3% to 0.5% over the
life of the Proposed Credit Agreement; provided, however, that in certain
circumstances, prepayments by the Company will not be subject to the prepayment
premium.

      The following is a summary of the material terms of the commitment
letter.

      Interest. The loan will be an obligation of the Company and each of its
subsidiaries collectively the Borrowers and will bear interest, which is
payable monthly in arrears, at a floating rate equal to 4.25% plus the 30-day
Commercial Paper rate as published in The Wall Street Journal (the "Base
Rate"). This base rate will be reduced by .25% if the ratio of AT&T debt (as
such term is defined, to the Borrowers Combined Cash Flow Available for Debt
Service (defined as EBITDA) equals or is less than 4.75 to 1.0. If this same
ratio is 4.0 to 1.0, the pricing will decline to Commercial Paper plus 3.75%.

      Amortization. Principal is payable in 60 consecutive monthly
installments on the first day of each month commencing on April 1, 1997 in
amounts which increase incrementally from $92,000 per month during the first
year to $236,000 per month during the fifth year of the Loan. The balance of
the principal is due on February 1, 2002, however, the term may be extended
for an additional 60 months upon the satisfaction of certain conditions and
payment of a fee. In the event the maturity is extended, the then outstanding
principal will be payable in 60 consecutive monthly installments on the first
day of each month commencing on March 1, 2002 and continuing until February 1,
2007.

      Prepayment Premium. The Borrowers (hereinafter defined) are entitled to
prepay the outstanding principal at any time, in integral multiples of
$500,000, subject to a prepayment premium declining from 3% to 0.5% over the
term; provided, however, that in certain circumstances, prepayments will not
be subject to the prepayment premium.

      Security. The assets and obligations under the Loans are secured by a
first priority security interest in all existing and after-acquired property
of the Borrowers and all issued and outstanding capital stock of the
Borrowers.

      Covenants. The Proposed Credit Agreement will contain financial leverage
and coverage ratios and limitations on corporate overhead and restrictions on
capital expenditures in excess of at least $625,000 in the aggregate.


                                      23




     
<PAGE>





      Prepayment. The Company will be entitled to prepay the Loan at any
time, in integral multiples of $500,000, subject to a prepayment premium
declining from 3% to 0.5% over the life of the Term Loan, provided, however,
that in certain circumstances, prepayments by the Company will not be subject
to the prepayment penalty.

      It is anticipated that the Company will be able to meet its obligations
including debt service and dividend requirements over at least the next 12
months. However, under the terms of the Proposed Credit Agreement there is no
assurance that the Company will be able to borrow enough to fund its pending
acquisitions. In addition, it is anticipated that through this period dividend
payments on the Preferred Stock are likely to be made out of the remaining
proceeds of the Preferred Stock Offering or the Proposed Credit Agreement. In
order to fund future dividend payments from operating income, the Company will
have to improve the operating results of its current radio stations and those to
be acquired in the pending acquisitions. The Company's ability to make these
improvements will be subject to prevailing economic conditions and to legal,
financial, business, regulatory, industry and other factors, many of which are
beyond the Company's control.

      The Company will be required to incur additional indebtedness or raise
additional equity financing in connection with future acquisitions of radio
properties and is likely to need to incur or raise such additional financing
when the balloon payment is due in 2002 under the Proposed Credit Agreement.
There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to incur such
additional indebtedness or raise additional equity on terms acceptable to the
Company. The Company's ability to make future acquisitions and incur
additional indebtedness will also be restricted by the Proposed Credit
Agreement. Without such sources of funding, it is unlikely that the Company
will be able to implement its acquisition strategy.

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

      The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 121,
"Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets
to Be Disposed Of" in March 1995, which establishes accounting standards for
the impairment of long-lived assets, certain identifiable intangibles and
goodwill related to those assets to be held and used and for long-lived assets
and certain identifiable intangibles to be disposed of. SFAS No. 121 will be
effective for the Company's financial statements beginning in fiscal 1997. The
Company evaluates intangible assets for potential impairment by analyzing the
operating results, trends and prospects of the Company's stations, as well as
by comparing them to their competitors. The Company also takes into
consideration recent acquisition patterns within the broadcast industry, the
impact of recently enacted or potential FCC rules and regulations and any
other events or circumstances which might indicate potential impairment. As a
result of continued strong growth in radio advertising revenue, and based upon
recent valuations of various station acquisitions in many of the Company's
markets, management does not believe that the implementations of SFAS No. 121
will have a material effect on its financial statements

      The Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock Based Compensation" in October 1995, which establishes
financial accounting and reporting standards for stock based employee
compensation plans including, stock purchase plans, stock options, restricted
stock and stock appreciation rights. The Company has elected to continue
accounting for stock based compensation under Accounting Principles Board
Opinion No. 25. The disclosure requirements of SFAS No. 123 will be effective
for the Company's financial statements beginning in fiscal 1997. Management
does not believe that the implementation of SFAS No. 123 will have a material
effect on its financial statements.

                        TRIATHLON BROADCASTING COMPANY
                  NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                MARCH 31, 1996


1.   ORGANIZATION AND NATURE OF BUSINESS

     Triathlon Broadcasting Company (the "Company") was incorporated in
Delaware on June 29, 1995, and on that date the stockholders of Triathlon
Broadcasting Company, Inc., a New York corporation ("Triathlon New York"),
contributed all of their shares of Triathlon New York's Common Stock to the
Company in exchange for all of the Company's Common Stock. Triathlon New York,
originally incorporated as Vineland Grapes, Inc., was organized on February
14, 1995 for the purpose of owning and operating radio stations primarily in
medium and small-sized markets in the Midwest and Western United States.

     The exchange of common stock was accounted for as a business combination
among companies under common control. The accompanying consolidated financial
statements include the accounts and transactions of the Company and its
wholly-owned subsidiaries. All significant intercompany transactions and
accounts have been eliminated.

     The Company did not commence radio station ownership and operations until
September 13, 1995. The Company had no income or expenses for the period ended
March 31, 1995.

     As of June 6, 1996, the Company owns and operates, sells advertising
pursuant to Joint Sales Agreements ("JSAs") or provided programming pursuant
to Local Marketing Agreements ("LMA") on 19 FM and 9 AM radio stations in seven
markets: Wichita, Kansas; Lincoln, Nebraska; Omaha, Nebraska; Little Rock,
Arkansas; Colorado Springs, Colorado; Tri-Cities, Washington and Spokane,
Washington.

     The Company's revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the
radio broadcasting industry, the first calendar quarter generally produces the
lowest revenues for the year and the fourth calendar quarter generally
produces the highest revenues for the year. The Company's operating results in
any period may be affected by the incurrence of advertising and promotion
expenses that do not necessarily produce commensurate revenues until the
impact of the advertising and promotion is realized in future periods.

2.   SECURITIES OFFERINGS AND RADIO STATION ACQUISITIONS

INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING AND WICHITA ACQUISITIONS

     In September 1995, the Company completed its initial public offering (the
"Initial Public Offering") of 2,760,000 shares of Class A Common Stock,
including exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option, in October
1995, at a price of $5.50 per share. The Company used the net proceeds from
the Initial Public Offering of approximately $12,900,000 to acquire
substantially all of the assets of radio station KRBB-FM from Marathon
Broadcasting Corporation ("Marathon") for $3,428,500, and radio stations,
KFH-AM, KXLK-FM and KQAM-AM from Pourtales Radio Partnership ("Pourtales") for
approximately $2,500,000 (collectively, the "Initial Wichita Acquisitions").
In September 1995, the Company entered into a JSA with Pourtales pursuant to
which the Company sells all the advertising time on KEYN-FM, operating in the
Wichita, Kansas market, until the earlier of the fifth anniversary of such
agreement or until the purchase of KEYN-FM by the Company. The Company retains
all of the revenue it receives from the sale of advertising time less a
payment to Pourtales of approximately $49,000 per month.


                                      30

     Sillerman Communications Management Corporation ("SCMC") on behalf of
Radio Investors, Inc. ("Radio Investors"), an affiliate of SCMC, posted
letters of credit on behalf of the Company in the amount of $165,000 and
$600,000 for the Marathon and Pourtales stations, respectively, in lieu of
nonrefundable cash deposits. Radio Investors holds 1,199,476 shares of the
Company's issued and outstanding Class D Common Stock. At the direction of
Radio Investors, SCMC transferred and assigned to the Company the letters of
credit described above and the related cash deposited with the financial
institution which issued the letters of credit. The assignment of the cash
deposits have been recorded as payment for 400 shares of Triathlon New York's
Common Stock issued to Norman Feuer, the Company's President and Chief
Executive Officer, valued at $2,449, and the remainder of $762,551 was
recorded as a liability to Radio Investors. Radio Investors and John D.
Miller, the Company's Chairman of the Board, subscribed for 500 and 10 shares,
respectively, of Triathlon New York's Common Stock. On June 15, 1995, the
liability to Radio Investors was converted into a $515,000 promissory note
payable to Radio Investors due upon the closing of the Initial Public Offering
with interest accruing at 6% per annum commencing on April 1, 1995, and the
500 and 10 shares, respectively, of Triathlon New York's Common Stock issued
to Radio Investors and Mr. Miller, valued at $247,551. The promissory note and
accrued interest were repaid with proceeds from the Initial Public Offering.

     During 1995, SCMC funded on behalf of the Company additional deposits and
payments in connection with the Marathon Station. All amounts were repaid
to SCMC with proceeds from the Initial Public Offering.

LINCOLN ACQUISITIONS

     On January 24, 1996, the Company acquired in a stock acquisition, KTGL-FM
and KZKX-FM from Pourtales (the "Initial Lincoln Acquisition") each operating
in the Lincoln, Nebraska market for an aggregate purchase price of $9,650,000.
This acquisition was financed in part by the net proceeds of a $9,000,000
credit agreement with AT&T Commercial Finance Corporation ("AT&T" and the
"Credit Agreement") and excess funds from the Initial Public Offering. The
Credit Agreement consisted of two term loans aggregating $9,000,000 bearing
interest at a rate of 4.25% in excess of the 30 day commercial paper rate. The
Company repaid the loans and accrued interest prior to March 31, 1996
utilizing a portion of the proceeds from the Preferred Stock Offering (defined
below), recognizing an extraordinary loss of $320,000 resulting from the write-
off of fees associated with the financing. The contracted
prepayment penalty of $267,000 associated with the Credit Agreement will be
waived, and therefore has not been recorded, should the Company borrow at least
$9,000,000 under its new credit facility (Note 11) by December 31, 1996.
Management believes that such borrowings will occur. The Initial Wichita
Acquisitions and Initial Lincoln Acquisition were recorded
using the purchase method of accounting. The preliminary allocation of the
purchase prices paid in connection with the radio station acquisitions may
change upon the final determination of the fair value of the net assets
acquired. The operating results of the acquired stations are included in the
accompanying statement of operations from the date of acquisition.

     On June 13, 1996 the Company acquired the assets of KIBZ-FM, KKNB-FM and
KHAT-AM from Rock Steady, Inc., each operating in the Lincoln, Nebraska
market, for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $3,275,000. SCMC, on
behalf of the Company, provided a deposit in the form of a letter of credit in
the amount of $200,000 in favor of the owner of Rock Steady. The Company
subsequently paid SCMC $200,000 and SCMC assigned its rights related to the
letter of credit to the Company. The letter of credit was returned to the
Company upon acquisition of the stations. Since January 29, 1996, the Company
has been selling advertising on KIBZ-FM and KKNB-FM pursuant to a JSA. The JSA
terminated with the acquisition of the stations by the Company.

OMAHA ACQUISITIONS

     On April 10, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of KRRK-FM from 93.3
Inc., operating in the Omaha, Nebraska market, for a purchase price of
$2,700,000 and the assets of KXKT-FM from Valley Broadcasting Company, also
operating in the Omaha, Nebraska market, for a purchase price of $8,100,000.
Restricted cash of $525,000 has been segregated in support of Letters of Credit
provided in connection with these acquisitions.

TRI-CITIES ACQUISITION

     On April 19, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of KALE-AM and KIOK-FM
from Sterling Realty Organization, each operating in the Tri-Cities,
Washington market, for an aggregate purchase price of $1,200,000. Restricted
cash of $100,000 has been segregated in support of a letter of credit provided
in connection with this acquisition.

SPOKANE ACQUISITIONS

     On May 15, 1996, the Company acquired the assets of KISC-FM, KNFR-FM and
KAQQ-AM each operating in the Spokane, Washington market from Silverado
Broadcasting Company, Inc., for an aggregate purchase price of approximately
$8,750,000. Restricted cash of $437,500 has been segregated in support of a
letter of credit provided in connection with the acquisitions. The Company had
been providing programming and selling advertising on these stations since
March 1, 1996, pursuant to the Silverado LMA. In addition, the Company
received the right to purchase a controlling interest in KCDA-FM from
Silverado at a nominal price. The current licensee, however, has retained the
right to redeem the Company's purchase rights by paying to the Company an
amount equal to 75% of the fair market value of the station.

     On March 1, 1996, the Company assumed the rights and obligations of
Silverado under two JSA's on KNJY-FM and KCDA-FM, each operating in the
Spokane, Washington market. The JSA relating to KNJY-FM renews annually until
June 1, 1999 unless canceled by either party 60 days prior to June 1 of any
given year. The JSA relating to KCDA-FM expires on October 1, 1998. Pursuant
to these JSAs, the Company pays to the station owners a fee determined
pursuant to formulas based on net collected revenues as defined.

POURTALES ACQUISITION

     On January 15, 1996, the Company entered into an LMA with Pourtales with
respect to radio stations KVOR-AM, KSPZ-FM, KTWK-AM and KVUU-FM, each
operating in the Colorado Springs, Colorado market, and KEYF-FM, KEYF-AM,
KUDY-AM and KKZX-FM, each operating in the Spokane, Washington market. The
Pourtales LMA terminates on the earlier of January 31, 1997 or the
consummation of the sale of these stations to the Company. Under the Pourtales
LMA and the Citadel JSA, the Company provides programming for these stations
while Citadel sells advertising. Under the Citadel JSA, Citadel, which
currently owns other stations in the Colorado Springs and Spokane markets (the
"Citadel Stations"), is entitled to retain a monthly fee (the "JSA Fee") based
on the combined revenues from the sale of advertising time on the Citadel
Stations and the stations subject to the Pourtales LMA (the "Aggregate
Revenues") and the combined operating expenses of such stations (the
"Aggregate Operating Expenses") less a monthly payment to the Company of 45%
of the difference between the Aggregate Revenues and Aggregate Operating
Expenses each month, up to and including June 1997. After June 1997, the
Company is entitled to receive 40% of such difference. The Citadel JSA will
terminate on December 31, 2000 unless extended for up to two additional
consecutive five-year terms by either party.

     On January 16, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Pourtales
to acquire the eight radio stations which are subject to the Pourtales LMA,
radio station KEYN-FM currently subject to a JSA and radio stations KEGX-FM
and KTCR-AM, each operating in the Tri-Cities, Washington market, and to
assume an LMA for radio stations KNLT-FM and KUJ-AM, also operating in the
Tri-Cities, Washington market (the "Tri-Cities LMA") for an aggregate purchase
price of $22,500,000 (the "Pourtales Acquisition"). The Company made a
non-refundable deposit in the form of an irrevocable stand-by letter of credit
in the amount of $925,000, and has made further non-refundable deposits in the
aggregate amount of $2,000,000 (See Note 7). This additional $2,000,000
deposit is being recorded as a financing expense by the Company during the
period of the Pourtales LMA. If the agreement is terminated by either party in
accordance with its terms, the FCC denies the application or fails to grant
its consent within ten months

                                      32




     
<PAGE>





of the filing of the FCC application or the Pourtales Acquisition is not
consummated by January 30,1997, the company will forfeit the deposit of
$2,000,000. The Company will also forfeit the letter of credit if the Company
does not consummate the acquisition of these stations due to a material breach
on its part. Pursuant to the agreement, Pourtales must use reasonable efforts
to sell KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM to a third party prior to consummation of the
Pourtales Acquisition. In the event that such a sale occurs, the aggregate
purchase price for the Pourtales Acquisition will be reduced by the greater of
the actual sale price of KEGX-FM and KTCR-AM or $2,500,000. In addition, in
the event that the Company fails to consummate the Pourtales Acquisition,
Citadel shall have the right to purchase the stations subject to the Pourtales
LMA on the same terms as the Company, including the application of the
Company's non-refundable deposit toward the purchase price, provided FCC
approval is obtained.

     In connection with the Pourtales Acquisition the Company will assume
Pourtales' rights and obligations under the Tri-Cities LMA. Pursuant to the
Tri-Cities LMA, the Company will pay the owner of the stations $22,000 per
month, which includes an $8,000 monthly advance for certain expenses. At the
end of each 12 month period the actual expenses will be computed and the
Company will pay any shortfall to such owner or will receive a refund from
such owner for any overpayment of such expenses. The Tri-Cities LMA expires on
April 13, 2003.

LITTLE ROCK ACQUISITION

     On January 17, 1996, the Company entered in to a letter of intent with
Multi-Market Radio, Inc. ("MMR"), an affiliate, to purchase KOLL-FM, operating
in the Little Rock, Arkansas market, for $4,000,000, subject to adjustment
downward to $3,500,000 or upward to $5,000,000 based on an independent
valuation. The Company and MMR have obtained an appraisal from a nationally
recognized appraisal firm which valued KOLL-FM at $4,100,000. The Company
anticipates entering into an acquisition agreement by the quarter ending
September 30, 1996. On March 15, 1996, the Company entered into an LMA with MMR
pursuant to which the Company provides programming and sells advertising on
KOLL-FM pending the consummation of the acquisition. In connection with entering
into this LMA, the Company made a payment of $3,500,000 to MMR which will be
credited towards the purchase price of the station. In addition, the Company
makes monthly payments to MMR to reimburse MMR for certain operating expenses.

SOUTHERN SKIES ACQUISITION

     On February 8, 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with Southern
Skies Corporation and its affiliate Arkansas Skies Corporation (collectively
"Southern Skies") to acquire KZSN-FM and KZSN-AM, and KSSN-FM and KMVK-FM,
respectively, for an aggregate purchase price of $24,500,000 (the
"Southern Skies Acquisition"). A portion of the purchase price of the Southern
Skies Acquisition equal to $500,000 will be paid by delivery of 46,189 shares
of Class A Common Stock and the Company has granted registration rights to
Southern Skies with respect to such shares. In addition, $750,000 will be paid
over five years in consideration for one of the principals entering into a
non-competition agreement. The Company has provided a deposit in the form of
an irrevocable stand-by letter of credit in the amount of approximately
$1,200,000. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement, the Company will forfeit the
letter of credit and pay an additional amount of $1,200,000 as liquidated
damages if the Company does not consummate the acquisition of these stations due
to a material breach on its part. Furthermore, the agreement is expressly
conditioned upon the FCC's prior consent to the transaction and the agreement
may be terminated by either party for, among other things, the failure of the
FCC to grant such consent by February 8, 1997. The FCC applications for the
Company to acquire these stations were filed on February 20, 1996. The Company
expects to finance the Southern Skies Acquisition with the remaining portion of
the Preferred Stock Offering proceeds, described below, and a portion of the
funds available under the new credit facility (See Note 11).

PREFERRED STOCK OFFERING

      In March 1996, the Company completed an offering of 5,200,000 Depository
Shares each representing a one-tenth interest in a share of 9% Mandatory
Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock") at a price of $10.50 per
share (the "Preferred Stock Offering"). The Company used or will use the net
proceeds from the Preferred Stock Offering of approximately $49,400,000 to
repay the outstanding borrowings and accrued interest under its Credit
Agreement and finance a portion of the acquisitions as described above. On
April 11, 1996, the underwriter exercised the over-allotment option purchasing
an additional 634,000 Depositary Shares and the Company received net proceeds
of approximately $6,290,000.



      The following unaudited supplemental pro forma information is presented
as if the Company had completed the Initial Wichita Acquisitions, Initial
Lincoln Acquisition, Initial Public Offering and Preferred Stock Offering as
of April 1, 1995:

   Net revenue                                          $  7,992,833
   Operating loss                                         (1,067,586)
   Net loss applicable to common stock                    (1,877,586)

3.    SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

      Cash and cash equivalents consist of short term, highly liquid investments
which are readily convertible into cash and have an original maturity of three
months or less when purchased. The Company's cash and cash equivalents as of
March 31, 1996 consist of $3,574,285 in operating accounts for working capital
purposes and $33,270,940 in a seven day Chemical Bank Certificate of Deposit.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

      Property and equipment are stated at their fair value estimated at the
date of acquisition or cost if purchased subsequently. Depreciation is
provided on the straight-line method over the estimated useful life of the
assets ranging from: 40 years for buildings and related improvements, 15 years
for technical equipment, and five to seven years for furniture, other
equipment and vehicles.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

      Intangible assets include the portion of the purchase price allocable to
FCC licenses and goodwill which is amortized on a straight-line basis over 40
years, and certain professional fees and other expenses incurred in connection
with the Company's formation which are amortized on a straight-line basis over
5 years. Intangible assets also consist of costs related to pending
acquisitions and costs related to a bank financing with AT&T (See Note 11)
which will be amortized on a straight-line basis over 40 years and the term of
the related debt, respectively, when the transactions are completed.

      It is the Company's policy to account for intangible assets at the lower
of amortized cost or fair market value. As part of an ongoing review of the
valuation and amortization of intangible assets, management assesses the
carrying value of the Company's intangible assets if facts and circumstances
suggest they may be impaired. If this review indicates that

                                      34




     
<PAGE>





the intangibles will not be recoverable as determined by a nondiscounted cash
flow analysis over the remaining amortization period, the carrying value of
the Company's intangibles will be reduced to its estimated realizable value.
The Company has determined that intangibles are fairly stated at March 31,
1996.

      In March 1995, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 121, "Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of,"
("FAS 121") effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1995. The
new rules establish standards for the recognition and measurement of
impairment losses on long-lived assets and certain intangible assets. The
Company expects that the adoption of FAS 121 will not have a material effect
on its financial statements.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

      The Company's primary source of revenue is the sale of airtime to
advertisers. Revenue is recorded when the advertisements are broadcast.
Revenue from the sale of airtime on the LMA/JSA stations is also recorded when
the advertisements are broadcast.

BARTER TRANSACTIONS

      Revenue from barter transactions (advertising provided in exchange for
goods and services) is recognized as income when advertisements are broadcast;
goods and services are accounted for when used. Barter revenue and expense for
the year ended March 31, 1996 is $156,257 and $170,425, respectively.

STOCK OPTIONS

      In accordance with Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees," ("APB 25") compensation costs for
stock is recognized in income based on the excess, if any, of the quoted
market price of the stock at the grant date of the award or other measurement
date over the amount an employee must pay to acquire that stock.

      In October 1995, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 123, "Accounting for Stock Based Compensation," ("FAS 123")
which establishes financial accounting and reporting standards for stock based
employee compensation plans including, stock purchase plans, stock options,
restricted stock and stock appreciation rights. The Company has elected to
continue accounting for stock based compensation under APB 25. The disclosure
requirements of FAS 123 will be effective for the Company's financial
statements beginning in fiscal 1997.

LOSS PER COMMON SHARE

      Loss per common share is based upon the net loss applicable to common
shares which is net of preferred dividends and upon the weighted average of
common shares outstanding during the period. The conversion of securities
convertible into common stock and the exercise of stock options were not
assumed in the calculation of loss per common share because the effect would
be antidilutive.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

      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
disclosures

                                      35




     
<PAGE>





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.

      Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of the Certificate of Deposit
and trade receivables. The Company's revenue is principally derived from local
broadcast advertisers who are impacted by the local economies.

      The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers
and does not require collateral or other security to support customer
receivables. Credit losses are provided for in the financial statements in the
form of an allowance for doubtful accounts.

4.   INTANGIBLE ASSETS

      Intangible assets consist of the following at March 31, 1996:

FCC licenses..................................                $13,628,683
Organization costs............................                    663,586

5. STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY

      On July 6, 1996, the Company completed a recapitalization whereby all of
its outstanding common stock was exchanged for 25,000 shares of Class A Common
Stock, 244,890 shares of Class B Common Stock, and 1,444,366 shares of Class D
Common Stock. In addition, 367,344 shares of Class C Common Stock were sold to
certain investors for $3,673 in lieu of paying a commitment fee on a proposed
bridge loan that the Company later determined not to utilize.

      The Company recorded compensation expense in the accounting period in
which the Initial Public Offering closed in an amount of $70,000 in connection
with the issuance of 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to Mr. Miller. The
Company will also incur noncash compensation expense of approximately $34,000
per quarter for the five years following the closing of the Initial Public
Offering in connection with the issuance of 244,890 shares of Class B Common
Stock to Mr. Feuer pursuant to his employment agreement. During the year ended
March 31, 1996, the Company expensed approximately $79,000 in connection with
the shares issued to Mr. Feuer.

PREFERRED STOCK

      The Company's authorized capital stock includes 4,000,000 shares of $.01
par value Preferred Stock of which 600,000 shares have been designated as
Series A Convertible Preferred Stock and 600,000 shares as Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock. The Series A and B Convertible Preferred Stock
have no voting rights. The Company may issue both Series A and Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock pursuant to compensation plans to the Company's
officers, directors and advisors. The Series A Convertible Preferred Stock is
convertible into Class A Common Stock

                                      36

if specified operating cash flow targets are achieved. Subject to FCC
ownership regulations, if the market price of the Class A Common Stock is
greater than or equal to $14.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days
prior to December 31, 1998, one-half of the Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock will be convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common
Stock. If the market price of the Class A Common Stock is greater than or
equal to $15.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days prior to December
31, 1999, any remaining shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will be
convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. During the
period in which the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock becomes convertible,
the Company will incur substantial non-cash charges to earnings, which will
equal the fair value of the Class A Common Stock at such time.

      On February 8, 1996, the Board issued (i) 282,500 shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock Convertible into Class A Common Stock in the event
the market price of the Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to
$14.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days to certain officers,
directors and advisors and (ii) 282,500 shares of Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock convertible into Class A Common Stock in the event the market
price of the Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00 per share
for 20 consecutive trading days to certain officers, directors and advisors.
The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock vests in equal installments over a
five year period beginning one year from the date of issuance.

MANDATORY CONVERTIBLE PREFERRED STOCK

      The Preferred Stock ranks senior to each other class or series of
capital stock. Holders are entitled to receive dividends accruing at the rate
of 9% per annum. On the June 30, 2000 mandatory conversion date, the Preferred
Stock then outstanding will convert automatically into shares of Class A
Common Stock. The mandatory conversion rate shall not be greater than 1.15 or
less than .833 shares of Class A Common Stock. The Preferred Stock is not
redeemable by the Company prior to June 30, 1999. Each share of the Preferred
Stock is entitled to eight votes.

COMMON STOCK

      Holders of shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock vote
as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders, with
each share of Class A Common Stock entitled to one vote and each share of
Class B Common Stock generally entitled to ten votes, except as described
below or as otherwise provided by law.

      The holders of Class A Common Stock, voting as a separate class, are
entitled to elect or remove the two Class A Directors. In the event of the
death, removal or resignation of a Class A Director prior to the expiration of
his or her term, such vacancy may be filled by a majority of the directors
then in office, although less than a quorum. The holders of Class A Common
Stock and Class B Common Stock, voting as a single class, with each share of
Class A Common Stock entitled to one vote and each share of Class B Common
Stock entitled to ten votes, are entitled to elect or remove the remaining
directors. The holders of Common Stock are not entitled to cumulative votes in
the election of directors.

      If one or more of Messrs. Feuer, Sillerman or Tytel or Radio Investors
(each a "Principal Stockholder") or any of their affiliates engage in or agree
to participate in a "going private" transaction, any share of Class B Common
Stock held by such person or entity engaging in or agreeing to participate in
such transaction shall be entitled to only one vote per share. For purposes of
this provision, Mr. Feuer is not deemed to be an "affiliate" of Messrs.
Sillerman or Tytel or Radio Investors. Such provision is designed to decrease
the voting power of any principal stockholder of the Company engaging in or
participating in a going private transaction.

      Except as required by law, the holders of the Class C Common Stock and
the Class D Common Stock have no voting rights.

                                      37

      Under Delaware law, the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of
the outstanding shares of any class of Common Stock is required to approve,
among other things, a change in the designations, preferences or limitations
of the shares of such class of Common Stock.

      Each share of Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock, and Class D
Common Stock automatically converts into one share of Class A Common Stock
upon its sale or transfer, subject to FCC approval. In addition, each share of
Class D Common Stock is also convertible into one share of Class B Common
Stock, subject to certain conditions including FCC approval. Except as
required by law, holders of Class C and D Common Stock and Series A and B
Convertible Preferred Stock have no voting rights.

      Holders of shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive dividends as
may be declared by the Board of Directors. Payment of dividends is limited by
the terms of the Mandatory Convertible Preferred Stock.

      At March 31, 1996, the Company had reserved (i) approximately 2,700,000
million shares of Class A Common Stock for issuances under the Company's 1995
Stock Option Plan (see Note 8), conversion of the outstanding shares of Class
B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock and Class D Common Stock, and issuance
upon exercise of the warrants granted to the underwriters in the Company's
Initial Public Offering, and (ii) approximately 1.4 million shares of Class B
Common Stock reserved for issuance upon the conversion of the outstanding
shares of Class D Common Stock.

UNDERWRITER WARRANTS

      In connection with the Initial Public Offering, the Company issued
240,000 warrants to the underwriters each convertible into one share of the
Company's Class A Common Stock. Each warrant is exercisable for a share of
Class A Common Stock during the three-year period commencing September 7, 1997
at an exercise price equal to $7.43, representing 135% of the initial public
offering price per share of $5.50.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

COMPENSATION AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

      The Company and Norman Feuer entered into an employment agreement
commencing September 13, 1995, which provides that Mr. Feuer will serve as the
Company's President and Chief Executive Officer for a 5 year term; and provides
for an annual base compensation of $150,000, with annual increases tied to the
Consumer Price Index ("CPI") and pursuant to Board of Directors recommendation.
Under the terms of his agreement, Mr. Feuer will also receive an annual bonus of
$25,000 if there are no defaults during the year under any of the Company's
financing agreements with its lenders and an additional $25,000 annual bonus
upon the Company's achievement of mutually agreed-upon performance goals.
Mr. Feuer may also receive an additional discretionary bonus. In the event the
discretionary bonus is less than $50,000, the Company will loan an amount equal
to the shortfall to Mr. Feuer. If Mr. Feuer remains employed by the Company for
the full five-year term of his employment agreement, such loan amounts will be
forgiven.

      On October 12, 1995 the Company loaned Mr. Feuer $25,000 and on January
10, 1996 loaned Mr. Feuer an additional $25,000. In consideration of the bonus
clauses in Mr. Feuer's contract, on April 30, 1996 the Board of Directors
approved a bonus in the amount of $70,000 in recognition of the Company's
performance in fiscal 1996. The loan previously made to Mr. Feuer will be offset
against the bonus.

      The Company has a financial consulting agreement (the "SCMC Agreement")
with Sillerman Communications Management Corporation ("SCMC") pursuant to
which SCMC agreed to serve for a period of ten years as the

                                      38




     
<PAGE>





Company's financial consultant and to provide customary financial and advisory
services. During the year ended March 31, 1996, the Company paid to SCMC as
compensation for its services, $3,000 per month per market in which the
Company owns up to two stations, and $5,000 per month per market in which the
Company owns more than two stations. The SCMC Agreement was amended effective
February 1, 1996 under which SCMC will receive the following annual advisory
fees: (i) from February 1, 1996 until the date of the consummation of the
Preferred Stock Offering, $240,000 per year, (ii) from the consummation of the
Preferred Stock Offering until the date the Company has used the net proceeds
of the Preferred Stock Offering as contemplated therein as well as paid the
expenses in connection with the acquisitions, $300,000 per year, and (iii)
from the date the Company has used the proceeds of the Preferred Stock
Offering until June 1, 2005, $400,000 per year. The Company and SCMC have
agreed to two additional arrangements; (i) the Company reimburses SCMC $3,000
per month as compensation for services provided to the Company for Secretary,
Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer functions, in addition to any other
advisory fees. These fees approximated $18,000 for the year ended March 31,
1996. SCMC also provides investor relation services to the Company and is paid
$2,500 per month as compensation for these services. These fees approximated
$7,500 for the year ended March 31, 1996.

      Under the SCMC Agreement, SCMC has agreed to perform among other things:
(i) the placement of financing; (ii) the generation of financial reports and
other data for the Company that are required for presentation to the lenders
of the Company under any senior credit agreements and to the Company's
investors as required under the securities laws; (iii) assistance with the
preparation of the Company's regular books and records for audit by the
Company's independent certified public accountants; (iv) the maintenance of
relationships with financial institutions participating in the financing of
the Company; (v) preparation and delivery to the Company of quarterly reports
and analyses of regional and national advertising activity in medium and
small-sized radio markets in the Midwest and Western United States and
economic, employment and industrial trends in such radio markets; (vi) the
design and implementation of accounting systems appropriate and necessary for
the operation of the Company; (vii) the purchase, installation and
implementation of hardware and software appropriate for the accounting system
to be utilized by the Company; (viii) the implementation of a cash management
system to facilitate the collection of revenues for the Company and to
maximize the investment income available from cash balances; (ix) the
establishment of regular procedures for the payment of trade payables and the
accumulation of cash balances available for interest and other debt service
payments as they come due; and (x) the engagement of bookkeeping, accounting
and other personnel necessary to the implementation of the Company's
accounting systems. Pursuant to the agreement, SCMC will present opportunities
in the Company's markets to the Company prior to taking advantage of these
opportunities themselves.

      Pursuant to the SCMC Agreement, the Company paid to SCMC an aggregate of
$70,000 in advisory fees, $163,034 in connection with the acquisition of the
Initial Wichita Acquisitions, $265,375 in connection with the Initial Lincoln
Acquisition, $135,000 in connection with the Credit Agreement and $918,855 in
connection with the Preferred Stock Offering.

      SFX Broadcasting, Inc. ("SFX"), a Company controlled by Robert F.X.
Sillerman (a Class D Common stockholder) ("SFX") and SCMC have entered into an
agreement dated April 15, 1996 (the "SCMC Termination Agreement") pursuant to
which SCMC has assigned its rights to receive fees payable by the Company to
SFX. In addition, the Company has agreed to advance to SCMC an amount of
$500,000 per year in connection with services to be provided by SCMC.

      SCMC and the Company have agreed that SCMC will defer two-thirds of its
fees during any period for which the Company is in arrears with respect to
payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock. SCMC is entitled to be reimbursed
for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements incurred by SCMC in connection
with the performance of

                                      39

services. The Company will also indemnify SCMC and its directors, officers,
employees, affiliates and agents, and any person controlling such persons,
with respect to any and all loses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint or
several, to which any such indemnified party may be subject, and any and all
expenses incurred in connection with any such claim, action or proceedings,
insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, actions, proceedings or
expense arise out of or are based upon any matters that are the subject of
this agreement, except with respect to such indemnified amounts that arise out
of reckless or willful misconduct of such indemnified person.

      On September 13, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with
Pourtales (the "Shared Expense Agreement") to share certain expenses with
Pourtales until the consummation of the Pourtales Acquisition (the "Shared
Expense Period"). Pursuant to the Shared Expense Agreement, during the Shared
Expense Period, Pourtales pays the Company $11,000 per month as consideration
for Pourtales' use of the Company's corporate headquarters and the services
and facilities related thereto, and for Norman Feuer's radio programming
consulting services provided to Pourtales. The Company pays Pourtales $3,000
per month, during the Shared Expense Period, as consideration for the use of
certain services of Pourtales' chief financial officer. The Company obtained
the lease to its corporate headquarters on September 13, 1995 by assignment
from Force II Communications, a corporation wholly-owned by Mr. Feuer.

LEASE OBLIGATIONS

      The Company has entered into various operating and capital leases for
the rental of office space, property and equipment. Future minimum rental

7. LIABILITY TO AFFILIATES

     Liabilities to affiliates include approximately $1,750,000 payable to
Pourtales for purchase price deposit amounts due pursuant to the Pourtales
acquisition. The owner of Pourtales, Terry Robinson, owns 50% of Joint
Venture, which may provide marketing services to the Company. Additionally,
until the consummation of the Pourtales acquisition, the Company's President,
Norman Feuer, continues to serve as President of Pourtales. Liabilities to
SCMC approximate $2,520,105 and are for fees related to acquisitions and
financings which will occur subsequent to March 31, 1996.

8. STOCK OPTIONS AND OTHER COMPENSATION PLANS

     1995 Stock Option Plan. The Company's Board of Directors has adopted and
the stockholders have approved the Triathlon Broadcasting Company 1995 Stock
Option Plan (the "1995 Stock Option Plan"). The 1995 Stock Option Plan
provides for a grant of nonqualified and incentive stock options to purchase
up to 400,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to eligible employees and
advisors. Options with respect to 120,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were
granted on October 30, 1995. Options to purchase 20,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock granted to certain officers and directors are exercisable at
$11.50 per share, have a ten year term and vest in equal installments on
October 30, 1996 and October 30, 1997. Options to purchase 80,000 shares of
Class A Common Stock granted to Radio Investors and other affiliates of SCMC
are exercisable at $5.50 per share, have a ten year term and vest in equal
installments on October 30, 1996 and October 30, 1997. Options to purchase an
aggregate of 20,000 shares of Class A Common Stock with varying terms have
been issued to several station level employees.

     Other Stock Based Compensation. On October 30, 1995, certain officers and
directors received the right to a cash bonus in the amount of $120,000,
representing the difference between $5.50, the price of the Class A Common
Stock at the Initial Public Offering, and $11.50, the closing price of the
Class A Common Stock on October 30, 1995, multiplied by 20,000. The bonus
vests in two equal installments on October 30, 1996 and October 30, 1997 and
will be paid upon the exercise of the options. In addition to the option
grants under the 1995 Stock Option Plan, on October 30, 1995 the Company's
Board of Directors granted "cash-only stock appreciation rights" with respect
to 7,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to other directors. The value of these
cash-only stock appreciation rights will be calculated by multiplying the
number of shares by the difference between $5.50 and the price of the Class A
Common Stock on October 30, 2000, vesting in two equal installments on October
30, 1996 and October 30, 1997 and will be paid on October 30, 2000.

     On January 31, 1996, the Company granted "cash-only stock appreciation
rights" with respect to 4,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to directors of
the Company. The value of these cash-only stock appreciation rights will be
calculated by adding the sum of (i) one-half of the number of shares times the
difference between $.01 and the price of the Class A Common Stock on January
31, 2001 if prior to such date the price of the Class A Common Stock was equal
to or greater than $14.00 for 20 consecutive trading days and (ii) one-half of
the number of shares times the difference between $.01 and the price of the
Class A Common Stock on January 31, 2001 if prior to such date the price of
the Class A Common Stock was equal to or greater than $15.00 for 20
consecutive trading days. The cash-only stock appreciation rights will be paid
on January 31, 2001.

     During the year ended March 31, 1996 non cash compensation charges
relating to the issuance of options, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and
cash-only rights aggregated $273,369.

9.  INCOME TAXES

     The Company accounts for income taxes using the liability method.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the expected future tax
consequences of events that have been recognized in the financial statements
or tax returns.

     For the year ended March 31, 1996 the Company generated a net operating
loss carryforward ("NOL") of approximately $1,006,000, which will expire in
2010. Accordingly, no provision for income taxes has been recorded. In
addition, the Company has approximately $570,000 of NOL carryforwards
attributable to acquired subsidiaries, which are subject to limitations
resulting from their acquisition. As a result, the Company has included these
NOL's in its valuation allowance.

     The principal components of the Company's deferred tax assets and
liabilities at March 31, 1996 are the following:

10. DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN

     In November 1995, the Company established a non-employer matching 401(k)
defined contribution plan (the "Plan"). The Plan is available to all full-time
employees with the Company. All eligible employees may elect to contribute a
portion of their compensation to the Plan, subject to Internal Revenue Code
limitations.

11.  SUBSEQUENT EVENT

     The Company has received a commitment from AT&T for Senior Secured Term
Loans (the "Loans") of up to $40,000,000 which will be used to fund a portion
of the Southern Skies Acquisition and Pourtales Acquisition. Pursuant

                                      42




     
<PAGE>





to the commitment, the amount of funding available under the Loans will be
limited to an amount, which equals 5.5 times the combined historical 12-month
trailing operating cash flow/EBITDA (defined as earnings before interest,
taxes, depreciation and amortization). The calculation of such EBITDA is made
on a pro forma basis which includes the trailing 12 month operating cash flow
of all acquisitions.

     The Loans will bear interest, which is payable monthly in arrears, at a
floating rate equal to 4.25% plus the 30-day Commercial Paper rate as
published (the "Base Rate"). This base rate will be reduced by .25% if the
ratio of AT&T debt (as such term is defined to the Borrowers Combined Cash
Flow Available for Debt Service (defined as EBITDA) equals or is less than
4.75 to 1.0. If this same ratio is 4.0 to 1.0, the pricing will decline to
Commercial Paper plus 3.75%.

     Principal on the Loans will be payable in 60 consecutive monthly
installments on the first day of each month commencing on April 1, 1997 in
amounts which will increase incrementally from $92,000 per month during the
first year to $236,000 per month during the fifth year of the Loans. The
balance of the principal will be due on February 1, 2002, however, the term of
the Loans may be extended for an additional 60 months upon the satisfaction of
certain conditions and payment of a fee. In the event the maturity of the
Loans is extended, the then outstanding principal on the Loans will be payable
in 60 consecutive monthly installments on the first day of each month
commencing on March 1, 2002 and continuing until February 1, 2007. The Company
will be entitled to prepay the Loans at any time, in integral multiples of
$500,000, subject to a prepayment premium declining from 3% to 0.5% over the
life of the Term Loans; provided, however, that in certain circumstances,
prepayments by the Company will not be subject to the prepayment premium.

     The Company's obligations under the Loans will be secured by a first
priority security interest in all existing and after-acquired property of the
Company, with the exception of FCC licenses and authorizations to the extent
it is unlawful to grant a security interest in such licenses and
authorizations, and all issued and outstanding capital stock of the Borrowers.
The Loan will contain financial leverage and coverage ratios, limitations on
corporate overhead, and restrictions on capital expenditures in excess of
$625,000 in the aggregate for the Borrowers.

the Company's financing agreements with its lenders, and if there are any
defaults thereunder which are waived or cured with no material cost to the
Company, Mr. Feuer will receive one-half of such bonus and shall receive the
remaining one-half at the sole discretion of the Company's Board of Directors.
Mr. Feuer will also receive an annual bonus of $25,000 upon the Company's
achievement of performance goals to be mutually agreed upon and an additional
annual bonus at the discretion of the Board of Directors (the "Discretionary
Bonus"). If such Discretionary Bonus is less than $50,000 in any year, the
Company will loan Mr. Feuer an amount equal to $50,000 less such Discretionary
Bonus. If Mr. Feuer remains employed by the Company for the full term of his
five year employment agreement, such loan amounts will be forgiven. On October
12, 1995 the Company loaned Mr. Feuer $25,000 and on January 10, 1996 loaned Mr.
Feuer $25,000. In consideration of the bonus clauses in Mr. Feuer's contract on
April 30, 1996, the Board of Directors approved a bonus in the amount of $70,000
in recognition of the Company's performance in fiscal 1996. The loans previously
made to Mr. Feuer will be offset against the bonus.

      The employment agreement provides that if Mr. Feuer's employment is
terminated without "Cause" or in the event of a "Constructive Termination
Without Cause," Mr. Feuer will be entitled to a payment equal to 12 months of
his base salary and bonuses (excluding the Discretionary Bonus) for the year
prorated through the date of termination. In the event that Mr. Feuer becomes
disabled, the Company is obligated to pay his full base salary and bonuses
(excluding the Discretionary Bonus) for the first six months of such
disability and 75% of his base salary for the remainder of the term of the
employment agreement. The employment agreement defines "Cause" as conviction
of a felony involving moral turpitude which would render Mr. Feuer unable to
perform his duties under the employment agreement or conduct that constitutes
willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct. "Constructive Termination
Without Cause" is defined in the employment agreement as a reduction of Mr.
Feuer's base salary or the failure of the Company to pay Mr. Feuer's bonuses,
the failure to reelect Mr. Feuer to or the removal of Mr. Feuer from his
position as an officer and director, a diminution of his duties and
responsibilities, or the failure of

                                      49




     
<PAGE>





the Company to obtain a written assumption of its obligations under the
employment agreement by any successor to all or substantially all the
Company's assets within 15 days after a merger or similar transaction.

      In the event Mr. Feuer voluntarily terminates his employment other than
due to death or disability or a "Constructive Termination Without Cause," Mr.
Feuer will be required to surrender to the Company certain of his shares of
Class B Common Stock. If the voluntary termination occurs prior to two and
one-half years from the date of employment, Mr. Feuer must surrender all of
his shares of Class B Common Stock. If the termination occurs after two and
one-half years but prior to three and one-half years, three and one-half years
but prior to four and one-half years, or four and one-half years but prior to
five years, he must surrender 50%, 25% and 20%, respectively, of his shares of
Class B Common Stock.

      Other Stock Based Compensation. On October 30, 1995, Mr. Feuer and Mr.
Ciapura received the right to a cash bonus in the amount of $90,000 and
$30,000, respectively, representing the difference between $5.50, the price of
the Class A Common Stock at the Initial Public Offering, and $11.50, the
closing price of the Class A Common Stock on October 30, 1995, multiplied by
15,000 and 5,000, respectively. The bonus vests in two equal installments on
October 30, 1996 and October 30, 1997 and will be paid upon Mr. Feuer's and
Mr. Ciapura's exercise of their respective options. In addition to the option
grants under the 1995 Stock Option Plan, on October 30, 1995, the Company's
Board of Directors granted "cash-only stock appreciation rights" with respect
to 5,000, 1,000 and 1,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to Messrs. Miller,
Leiderman and Barnes, respectively. These cash-only stock appreciation rights
will be calculated by multiplying the number of shares by the difference
between $5.50 and the price of the Class A Common Stock on October 30, 2000,
vesting in two equal installments on October 30, 1996 and October 30, 1997 and
will be paid on October 30, 2000.

      On January 31, 1996, the Company granted cash-only stock appreciation
rights with respect to 2,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to each of Messrs.
Leiderman and Barnes. The value of these cash-only stock appreciation rights
will be calculated by adding the sum of (i) one-half of the number of shares
times the difference between $.01 and the price of the Class A Common Stock on
January 31, 2001 if prior to such date the price of the Class A Common Stock
was equal to or greater than $14.00 for 20 consecutive trading days and (ii)
one-half of the number of shares times the difference between $.01 and the
price of the Class A Common Stock on January 31, 2001 if prior to such date
the price of the Class A Common Stock was equal to or greater than $15.00 for
20 consecutive trading days. The cash-only stock appreciation rights will be
paid on January 31, 2001.

      Preferred Stock Issuance. The Company has approved a compensation plan
which provides that the Company may issue up to 600,000 shares of Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock to certain of its officers, directors and
advisors. Subject to required FCC consents, if the market price of Class A
Common Stock is greater than or equal to $14.00 per share for 20 consecutive
trading days, 300,000 shares of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will
be convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock. If the
market price of Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $15.00 per
share for 20 consecutive trading days, the remaining shares of the Series B
Convertible Preferred Stock will be convertible into an equal number of shares
of Class A Common Stock. On February 8, 1996, the Company issued (i) 220,000,
30,000, 30,000, 1,500 and 1,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
convertible into Class A Common Stock in the event the market price of the
Class A Common Stock is greater than or equal to $14.00 per share for 20
consecutive trading days to Radio Investors, Joint Venture and Messrs. Feuer,
Miller and Ciapura, respectively, and (ii) 220,000, 30,000, 30,000, 1,500 and
1,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock convertible into Class A
Common Stock in the event the market price of the Class A Common Stock is
greater than or equal to $15.00 per share for 20 consecutive trading days to
Radio Investors, Joint Venture and Messrs. Feuer, Miller and Ciapura,
respectively. The Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is non-voting and vests
in equal installments over a five year period beginning one year from the date
of issuance.

                                      50

      During the period in which the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock
becomes convertible, the Company will incur a substantial non-cash charge to
operations, which would equal the fair market value of such Class A Common
Stock at such time allocated over the five year vesting period. Such charge
could substantially reduce the Company's net income, if any, or increase the
Company's net loss for financial reporting purposes during that period. The
conversion of the Series B Convertible Preferred Stock will also result in
dilution to holders of the Company's Class A Common Stock.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

      Each Director who is not an employee of the Company receives, in
addition to reimbursement for travel expenses, $1,000 for each Board of
Directors' meeting attended and $500 for each committee meeting attended.

*Less than 1%.

     (1) The address of each of the persons named is c/o the Company, Symphony Towers, 750 B Street, Suite 1920, San Diego,
California 92101. The information as to beneficial ownership is based on statements furnished to the Company by the beneficial
owners. As used in this table, "beneficial ownership" means the sole or shared power to vote, or to direct the disposition of, a
security. For purposes of this table, a person is deemed to have "beneficial ownership" of any security that such person has the
right to acquire within 60 days. Unless noted otherwise, stockholders possess sole voting and dispositive power with respect to
shares listed on this table.

     (2) Each share of Class B Common Stock, Class C Common Stock (non-voting) and Class D Common Stock (non-voting) automatically
converts into one share of Class A Common Stock upon the sale of such stock to a non-affiliate of the Company. In addition, each
share of Class D Common Stock is convertible into one share of Class B Common Stock or Class A Common Stock at the option of the
holder and subject to certain conditions including FCC approval. An aggregate of 565,000 shares of Series B Convertible Preferred
Stock was issued on February 8, 1996 and will vest over a five year period beginning one year from the date of issuance. The
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock is non-voting and convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock in the
event the market price of the Class A Common Stock exceeds certain levels.

     (3) Each Depositary Share has 4/5 of a vote. Assuming the conversion or redemption of all Depositary Shares into shares of
Class A Common Stock (at the rate of .833 shares of Class A Common Stock per Depository Share) and the conversion of the shares of
Class D Common Stock into Class B Common Stock, Messrs. Feuer and Sillerman would beneficially own 65.3% of the voting power of
the Company.

     (4) Mr. Feuer and Radio Investors, which is substantially owned and controlled by Mr. Sillerman and his affiliates, have
entered into an agreement pursuant to which Mr. Feuer has assigned his economic interest in 100,000 shares and has pledged such
shares to Radio Investors to secure certain payment obligations. In the event Radio Investors exercises its right of first refusal
to purchase all 244,890 shares (which may require prior FCC approval), it will hold approximately 26.1% of the voting power
without giving effect to the conversion of the Class D Common Stock. In addition, varying percentages of Mr. Feuer's shares are
subject to surrender to the Company in the event he voluntarily terminates his employment prior to the expiration of the term of
his employment agreement. See "Item 10. Executive Compensation" and "Item 12. Certain Relationships and Related
Transactions--Agreement between Mr. Feuer and Radio Investors."

     (5) Includes 122,445 shares beneficially owned by Radio Investors by virtue of its 50% ownership of Joint Venture.

<PAGE>





     (6) In the event that all of the shares of Class D Common Stock are converted into Class B Common Stock, Radio Investors would
hold of record approximately 50.3% and Joint Venture would hold of record approximately 10.3% of the total voting power of the
Company. In the event that all of the shares of Class D Common Stock are converted into Class A Common Stock, the shares of Class
D Common Stock held of record by Radio Investors and Joint Venture would represent approximately 11.1% and 2.3%, respectively, of
the total voting power of the Company.

     (7) Includes 1,199,476 shares owned by Radio Investors, which is controlled by Mr. Sillerman, and 50% of the 244,890 shares
owned by Joint Venture, of which 50% is owned by Radio Investors.

     (8) If the shares of Class D Common Stock are converted into shares of Class B Common Stock, Mr. Sillerman would beneficially
hold 55.5% of the total voting power of the Company.

      (9) Represents shares owned by Mr. Robinson by virtue of his ownership of 50% of Joint Venture.

     (10) If the shares of Class D Common Stock are converted into shares of Class B Common Stock, Mr. Robinson would beneficially
hold 5.1% of the total voting power of the Company.

     (11) The sole stockholder of Macrocom Investors LLC is Michael Millon. Subsequent to March 31, 1996, all of the shares of
Class C Common Stock were converted into shares of Class A Common Stock.

     (12) In the event that all of the shares of Class D Common Stock are converted into Class B Common Stock, all Directors and
Executive Officers as a group would hold of record approximately 10.4% of the total voting power of the Company.

ITEM 12.       CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

THE POURTALES STATIONS

          Simultaneously with the Initial Public Offering, the Company
acquired from Pourtales radio stations KXLK- FM, KFH-AM and KQAM-AM, each
operating in the Wichita, Kansas market. The purchase price for these three
stations was approximately $2.5 million. On January 24, 1996, the Company also
acquired from Pourtales radio stations KZKX-FM and KTGL-FM each operating in
the Lincoln, Nebraska market, for an aggregate purchase price of $9.7 million.
See "Item 1. Business." C. Terry Robinson, the beneficial owner of 122,445
shares of Class D Common Stock by virtue of his 50% interest in Joint Venture,
is the principal owner of Pourtales. Mr Robinson also provides marketing and
consulting services to the Company through Joint Venture. See "--Relationship
With Joint Venture." In addition, prior to the Initial Public Offering, Mr.
Feuer, the owner of 100% of the shares of Class B Common Stock and as a result
thereof the holder of 26% of the combined voting power of the Company upon
completion of the Preferred Stock Offering, acted as the chief operating
officer of Pourtales and was responsible for the day-to-day operations of all
the radio stations currently owned by Pourtales. Currently, Mr. Feuer, in
addition to his responsibilities as President, Chief Executive Officer and a
Director of the Company, provides radio programming consulting services to
Pourtales for its stations in the Tri-Cities, Washington market including the
two stations subject to the Tri-Cities LMA, until the sale of such stations or
consummation of the Pourtales Acquisition. From September 13, 1995 until
Pourtales sold certain stations in the Mobile, Alabama market to a third party
and until the Company entered into the Pourtales LMA, Mr. Feuer also provided
radio programming consulting services to Pourtales and the radio stations it
owned in the Mobile, Alabama market and the stations subject to the Pourtales
LMA

          The Company has entered into an agreement to acquire from Pourtales
the eight additional radio stations subject to the Pourtales LMA, the radio
station on which it currently sells advertising pursuant to a JSA and two
additional radio stations, and to assume the Tri-Cities LMA for an aggregate
purchase price of $22.5 million. See "Item 1. Description of Business."

THE MMR ACQUISITION

          Subject to adjustment the Company has agreed to acquire radio
station KOLL-FM from MMR for an aggregate purchase price of $4.1 million and
has obtained an independent valuation regarding the acquisition. SCMC provides
advisory services to both MMR and the Company with respect to the MMR
Acquisition.

          On September 13, 1995, the Company entered into an agreement with
Pourtales (the "Shared Expense Agreement") to share certain expenses with
Pourtales until the consummation of the Pourtales Acquisition (the "Shared
Expense Period"). Pursuant to the Shared Expense Agreement, during the Shared
Expense Period, Pourtales pays the Company $11,000 per month as consideration
for Pourtales' use of the Company's corporate headquarters and the services and
facilities related thereto, and for Norman Feuer's radio programming consulting
services provided to Pourtales. The Company pays Pourtales $3,000 per month,
during the Shared Expense Period, as consideration for the use of certain
services of Pourtales' chief financial officer. The Company obtained the lease
to its corporate headquarters on September 13, 1995 by assignment from Force II
Communications, a corporation wholly-owned by Mr. Feuer.


RELATIONSHIP WITH JOINT VENTURE

          Joint Venture, a limited liability company owned 50% by Mr. Robinson
and 50% by Radio Investors, was formed to provide marketing and consulting
services to radio broadcasting companies and provides such services to the
Company. The Company has been advised by Joint Venture that any services
provided to the Company will be provided at its actual cost. In connection
with the formation of Joint Venture, Radio Investors contributed 244,890
shares of Class D Common Stock to Joint Venture as a capital contribution.
Upon the fulfillment of certain conditions, including FCC approval, if
necessary, the Class D Common Stock is convertible into shares of Class B
Common Stock. Upon completion of this Offering and if the shares of Class D
Common Stock are converted into shares of Class B Common Stock, Joint Venture
will hold 10% of the combined voting power of the Company. It is anticipated
that the Joint Venture will pay fees in connection with services provided to
Pourtales with respect to the proposed sale of certain stations in Mobile,
Alabama owned by Pourtales. The Company had an option to purchase such
stations from Pourtales which it did not exercise. See "Item 11. Security
Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management."

AMENDED AND RESTATED FINANCIAL CONSULTING AGREEMENT WITH SCMC

          The Company has entered into the Amended and Restated Financial
Consulting Agreement (the "Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement") with SCMC
dated February 1, 1996, pursuant to which SCMC has agreed to serve until June
1, 2005 as the Company's financial consultant and to provide customary

advance to SCMC $500,000 per year in connection with services to be provided
by SCMC, provided, however, that if the agreement between SCMC and Triathlon
is terminated or an unaffiliated person acquires a majority of the capital
stock of the Company, the advanced fees must be repaid at such time. Pursuant
to the SCMC Termination Agreement, SCMC has agreed to continue to provide the
services described herein until the expiration of the Amended and Restated
SCMC Agreement and not to perform any consulting or investment banking
services for any person or entity, other than the Company and MMR, in the
radio broadcasting industry or in any business which uses technology for the
audio transmission of information or entertainment.

           SCMC is controlled by Mr. Sillerman, and Messrs. Sillerman and

laws; (iii) assistance with the preparation of the Company's regular books and
records for audit by the Company's independent public accountants; (iv) the
maintenance of relationships and connections with financial institutions
participating in the financing of the Company; (v) preparation and delivery to

advertising activity in small and medium-sized radio markets; (vi) the design
and implementation of accounting systems appropriate and necessary for the
operation of the Company; (vii) the purchase, installation, and implementation

          Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement:
(i) any radio broadcast opportunities outside of the top 70 markets in the
United States and located west of the Mississippi River, other the Arkansas
(the "Applicable Markets"), that come to the attention of SCMC, Mr. Sillerman
of Mr. Tytel will be brought first to the Company for its consideration prior
to being presented to any other clients of SCMC and (ii) in cases in which
SCMC, Mr. Sillerman of Mr. Tytel is rendering advice in a restructuring or
similar circumstance to a radio company owning

                                      55

and operating stations outside of the top 70 markets and within the Applicable
Markets, SCMC will present to the Company, subject to any fiduciary or
confidentiality obligations to any of their clients, any opportunity for such
a radio station acquisition by the Company, on terms at least as favorable to
the Company as to any other potential buyer. To the extent Mr. Sillerman
determines in good faith, with the concurrence of the Class A Directors, that
the Company does not have the capacity to acquire a specific station outside
the top 70 markets and within the Applicable Markets, then SCMC or any
affiliate may acquire or invest in such station.

          During the term of the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement, the
Company will be required to pay to SCMC as compensation for its services under
the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement the following annual advisory fees:
(i) from February 1, 1996 until March 10, 1996, $240,000 per year; (ii) from
March 10, 1996 until the date the Company has used the net proceeds of this
Second Offering as contemplated in the Prospectus relating thereto as well as
paid the expenses in connection with the Acquisitions, $300,000 per year; and
(iii) from the date the Company has used the net proceeds of this Second
Offering until June 1, 2005, $400,000 per year. SCMC and the Company have
agreed in the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement that the compensation for
SCMC shall be increased by an amount to be mutually agreed upon by SCMC and
the Company if (i) the time and effort spent by SCMC exceeds the level that
was originally contemplated by the parties when they entered into the Amended
and Restated SCMC Agreement or (ii) the Company acquires additional broadcast
properties.

          Under the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement, SCMC will defer
two-thirds of its advisory fees during any period for which the Company is in
arrears with respect to payment of dividends on the Preferred Stock.

          Pursuant to the SCMC Agreement, the Company paid to SCMC an
aggregate of $70,000 in advisory fees, $163,034 in connection with the
acquisition of the Initial Wichita Acquisitions, $265,375 in connection with
the Initial Lincoln Acquisition, $135,000 in connection with the Credit
Agreement and $918,855 in connection with the Preferred Stock Offering.

          The Company is also required under the Amended and Restated SCMC
Agreement to reimburse SCMC for all reasonable out-of-pocket disbursements
incurred by SCMC in connection with the performance of services under the
agreement. The Company has agreed to indemnify SCMC and its directors,
officers, employees, affiliates and agents, and any person controlling such
persons, with respect to any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities,
joint or several, to which any such indemnified party my be subject, and any
and all expenses incurred in connection with any such claim, action or
proceedings, insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities, actions,
proceedings or expenses arise out of or are based upon any matters that are
the subject of the Amended and Restated SCMC Agreement, except with respect to
such indemnified amounts that arise out of reckless or willful misconduct of
such indemnified person.

ADDITIONAL ARRANGEMENTS WITH SCMC AND MR. SILLERMAN

          SCMC provides investor relation services to the Company and is paid
$2,500 per month as compensation for these services.

          SCMC, on behalf of the Company, funded a letter of credit in the
amount of $200,000 in connection with the deposit required for the Rock Steady
Acquisition. The Company subsequently repaid SCMC $200,000 and SCMC assigned
its right under the letter of credit to the Company.


                                      56




     
<PAGE>





          SCMC, on behalf of Radio Investors, funded on behalf on the Company
the letters of credit in connection with the deposits required for the Initial
Wichita Stations and Initial Lincoln Stations in an aggregate amount of
$765,000. Of this amount $2,449 was contributed to the capital of the Company
in payment of Mr. Feuer's subscription of 244,890 shares of Class B Common
Stock. The balance was treated as an advance to the Company. In June 1995,
Radio Investors received a promissory note in the principal amount of $515,000
from the Company, which accrued interest at the rate of 6% per annum from
March 31, 1996, and $247,551 was contributed to the capital of the Company in
payment of 1,444,366 shares of Class D Common Stock issued to Radio Investors
and 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock issued to Mr. Miller. In addition,
SCMC advanced to, or paid on behalf of, the Company certain expenses in an
aggregate amount of approximately $200,000, including $50,000 to fund initial
payments in respect of the IPO Underwriters' non-accountable expense allowance
in the Initial Public Offering, and $55,000 to the Lenders as commitment fees
for the Credit Agreement, and other expenses related to the Initial Public
Offering. The promissory note with accrued interest and the $200,000 advanced
on behalf of the Company were repaid out of the proceeds of the Company's
Initial Public Offering. During May 1995, SCMC funded on behalf of the Company
a promotional campaign conducted by KRBB-FM in the aggregate amount of
$30,000, which was repaid out of the proceeds of the Company's Initial Public
Offering. Furthermore, in August 1995, SCMC funded on behalf of the Company
$98,500 in additional purchase price and an additional deposit of $55,500 in
connection with extensions of the closing date of the acquisition of KRBB-FM,
which was repaid to SCMC out of the proceeds of the Company's Initial Public
Offering.

ISSUANCES OF SECURITIES

          In February 1995, Mr. Feuer acquired 400 shares of common stock of
Triathlon New York for a cash purchase price of $2,449 in connection with the
formation of Triathlon New York, and Radio Investors and Mr. Miller subscribed
for, and in June 1995 received, 500 and 10 shares of common stock,
respectively, of Triathlon New York for a purchase price of $247,301 and $250,
respectively.

          In June 1995, Mr. Feuer, Radio Investors and Mr. Miler, the
stockholders of Triathlon New York, contributed their shares of Triathlon New
York to the Company and, following a recapitalization of the Company's Common
Stock, in return, Mr Feuer received 244,890 shares of Class B Common Stock,
Radio Investors received 1,444,366 shares of Class D Common Stock and Mr.
Miller received 25,000 shares of Class A Common Stock. In connection with the
formation of Joint Venture, Radio Investors contributed 244,890 of its shares
of Class D Common Stock to Joint Venture as its capital contribution. Mr.
Feuer is required to surrender varying percentages of his shares of Class B
Common Stock to the Company in the event he voluntarily terminates his
employment with the Company during the term of his employment agreement. See
"Item 10. Executive Compensation--Employment Agreement."

          In connection with the Company's discussions relating to obtaining a
bridge loan of up to $2.0 million (the "Proposed Bridge Loan") in July 1995,
pursuant to subscription agreements effective as of May 1, 1995, the Company
sold an aggregate of 367,344 shares of Class C Common Stock to six accredited
investors (the "Class C Stockholders") for an aggregate purchase price of
$3,673 (or $.01 per share). The Class C Stockholders were introduced to the
Company by Americorp Securities, Inc. one of the underwriters of the Company's
Initial Public Offering. The Company sold the Class C Common Stock, for no
additional consideration, in lieu of paying a commitment fee for the Proposed
Bridge Loan which the Company later determined not to utilize.

appreciation rights with respect to 1,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to
each of Messrs. Leiderman and Barnes and 5,000 shares of Class A Common Stock

October 30, 2000, and will be paid on October 30, 2000.

          On January 31, 1996, the Company granted cash-only stock
appreciation rights with respect to 2,000 shares of Class A Common Stock to
each of Messrs. Leiderman and Barnes. The cash-only stock appreciation rights
with respect to each share of Class A Common Stock entitle the holder thereof
to receive an amount equal to the sum of (i) one-half of the difference
between $.01 and the price of the Class Common Stock on January 31, 2001 if
prior to such date the price of the Class A Common Stock was equal to or
greater that $14.00 for 20 consecutive trading days and (ii) one-half of the
difference between $.01 and the price of the Class A Common Stock on January
31, 2001 if prior to such date the price of the Class A Common Stock was equal
to or greater than $15.00 for 20 consecutive trading days. These cash-only
stock appreciation rights will be paid on January 31, 2001.

Venture and Messrs. Feuer, Miller and Ciapura in the amount of 440,000,
60,000, 60,000, 3,000 and 2,000 shares, respectively. The Series B Convertible
Preferred Stock is non-voting and vests over a five year period beginning one

AGREEMENT BETWEEN MR. FEUER AND RADIO INVESTORS

          Mr. Feuer and Radio Investors, which is controlled by Mr. Sillerman,
have entered into an agreement pursuant to which Mr. Feuer has assigned to
Radio Investors 40.835% (the "Agreed Percentage") of all proceeds paid or
payable to Mr. Feuer in connection with any sale or other disposition of, or
dividend or other distribution payable on or with respect to, such shares of
Class B Common Stock. In addition, Mr. Feuer has also granted to Radio
Investors a right of first refusal with respect to any sale or other
disposition to a third party of all 244,890 shares of Class B Common Stock
held by Mr. Feuer. This right enables Radio Investors to acquire shares of
Class B Common Stock at the proposed sales price. In the event that Radio
Investors does not exercise the right of first refusal and Mr. Feuer
consummates the sale to a third party (in which case such third party will
receive shares of Class A Common Stock), Mr. Feuer is required to pay to Radio
Investors an amount equal to the greater of the sales price and the fair
market value multiplied by the Agreed Percentage. To secure his payment
obligations, Mr. Feuer has also entered into a pledge agreement with Radio
Investors pursuant to which he has pledged 100,000 shares of his 244,890
shares of Class B Common Stock to Radio Investors. The conveyance of shares of
Class B Common Stock to Radio Investors may require the prior approval of the
FCC. See "Item 11. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
Management."

GENERAL

          The Company believes that transactions between the Company and its
officers, directors and principal stockholders or affiliates thereof have been
on terms no less favorable to the Company than could be obtained from
independent third parties. However, except for the Company's intention to
obtain a fairness opinion with respect to the MMR Acquisition, the Company has
not sought outside advice with respect to such transactions and, in certain
instances, has not considered retaining any other provider of similar
services. Since the Initial Public Offering, all transactions between the
Company and its officers, directors and principal stockholders or affiliates
thereof have been approved by the Company's independent directors.
