         Sale of Puerto Rico Cable System. On September 15, 2000, pursuant to

Television of San German, Inc. sold the assets of their entire cable system in
Puerto Rico to Centennial Puerto Rico Cable TV Corp., a subsidiary of Centennial
Communications Corp., for the purchase price of $170,000,000 in cash (subject to
certain adjustments). Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc., through one of its
wholly-owned subsidiaries, is the indirect parent of MCT Cablevision, LP and
Pegasus Cable Television of San German, Inc. The Puerto Rico cable system served
approximately 57,000 subscribers and passed over approximately 170,000 homes in
Aguadilla, Mayaguez, San German and surrounding communities in the western part
of Puerto Rico.

Item 7.  Financial Statements, Pro Forma Financial Information and Exhibits.

         (b)      Pro Forma Financial Information.

                  PM&C began accounting for the Puerto Rico cable system as a
         discontinued operation as of December 31, 1999, and, accordingly, has
         disclosed and reported the net revenues and income separately from its
         continuing operations in previous disclosure documents filed with the
         Securities and Exchange Commission. On this basis, PM&C does not
         believe that a pro forma consolidated statement of operations is
         required to be included in this form 8-K. The unaudited pro forma
         condensed combined balance sheet as of June 30, 2000 and the notes to
         the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet are attached
         hereto.

                        San German, Inc. and MCT Cablevision, Limited

                        to Exhibit 2.1 to Pegasus Communication Corporation's
                        Current Report on Form 8-K dated September 15, 2000).

              UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED BALANCE SHEET

On September 15, 2000, MCT Cablevision, LP and Pegasus Cable Television of San
German, Inc. jointly sold their entire interests in the Puerto Rico cable
system. Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc., through one of its operating
subsidiaries, is the indirect parent of MCT and PCTSG. The sale price was $170.0
million cash, subject to adjustment for accounts receivables, prepaid items and
liabilities associated with the system on the date of sale.

The provided unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet of PM&C as of
June 30, 2000 gives effect to the sale of the Puerto Rico cable system as if the
sale had occurred on June 30, 2000. The pro forma balance sheet also gives
effect to the assumed write-off at June 30, 2000 of the remaining balances of
intangible assets connected with the Puerto Rico cable operations that have no
future benefit after the sale of the cable system.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet is provided for
informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the financial
position that actually would have existed had the sale occurred on the date
indicated or that may exist in the future. The pro forma adjustments are based
upon available information and certain assumptions that the management of PM&C
believes are reasonable in the circumstances. The ultimate use of the cash
proceeds from the sale may differ from the assumptions used in the pro forma
balance sheet as of June 30, 2000, where the proceeds are reflected as being
invested in a money market fund.
