NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)

Note 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared by CC Media Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals and adjustments necessary for adoption of new accounting standards) necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Due to seasonality and other factors, the results for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results for the full year. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2010.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20 percent to 50 percent of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of the company are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process.

Certain prior-period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation.

Note 4: OTHER DEVELOPMENTS

Restructuring Program

In the fourth quarter of 2008, the Company initiated a company-wide strategic review of its costs and organizational structure to identify opportunities to maximize efficiency and realign expenses with the Company’s current and long-term business outlook (the “restructuring program”). As of June 30, 2010, the Company had incurred a total of $293.2 million of costs in conjunction with this restructuring program.

No assurance can be given that the restructuring program will achieve all of the anticipated cost savings in the timeframe expected or at all, or that the cost savings will be sustainable. In addition, the Company may modify or terminate the restructuring program in response to economic conditions or otherwise.

Share-based Compensation Expense

Share-based compensation expense is measured at the grant date based on the fair value of the award and is recognized as expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period. The following table presents the amount of share-based compensation expense recorded during the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively:

The Company owns certain radio stations which, under current FCC rules, are not permitted or transferable. These radio stations were placed in a trust in order to comply with FCC rules at the time of the closing of the merger that resulted in the Company’s acquisition of Clear Channel. The Company is the beneficial owner of the trust, but the radio stations are managed by an independent trustee. The Company will have to divest all of these radio stations unless any stations may be owned by the Company under then-current FCC rules, in which case the trust will be terminated with respect to such stations. The trust agreement stipulates that the Company must fund any operating shortfalls of the trust activities, and any excess cash flow generated by the trust is distributed to the Company. The Company is also the beneficiary of proceeds from the sale of stations held in the trust. The Company consolidates the trust in accordance with ASC 810-10, which requires an enterprise involved with variable interest entities to perform an analysis to determine whether the enterprise’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in the variable interest entity, as the trust was determined to be a variable interest entity and the Company is its primary beneficiary.

Income Tax Benefit (Expense)

The Company’s income tax benefit (expense) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively, consisted of the following components:


	Three Months Ended						Six Months Ended
	June 30,						June 30,
(In thousands)	2010			2009			2010			2009
Current tax expense	$	(13,987	)	$	(18,936	)	$	(26,644	)	$	(30,031	)
Deferred tax benefit		51,966			203,488			135,808			194,991

Income tax benefit	$	37,979		$	184,552		$	109,164		$	164,960

The effective tax rate is the provision for income taxes as a percent of income from continuing operations before income taxes. The effective tax rate for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 was 33.0% and 29.8%, respectively, compared to an effective tax rate of 4.8% and 3.9% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively. The 2010 effective rate was impacted primarily as a result of the Company’s inability to benefit from tax losses in certain foreign jurisdictions due to the uncertainty of the ability to utilize those losses in future years. The 2009 effective rate was impacted primarily as a result of a deferred tax valuation allowance recorded in 2009 due to the uncertainty of the Company’s ability to utilize Federal tax losses at that time and the impairment charge on goodwill in 2009.

Note 5: FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company holds marketable equity securities and interest rate swaps that are measured at fair value on each reporting date.

ASC 820-10-35 establishes a three-tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets; Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are either directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

Marketable Equity Securities

The marketable equity securities are measured at fair value using quoted prices in active markets. Due to the fact that the inputs used to measure the marketable equity securities at fair value are observable, the Company has categorized the fair value measurements of the securities as Level 1. The cost, unrealized holding gains or losses, and fair value of the Company’s investments at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, are as follows:


	June 30, 2010									December 31, 2009
			Gross			Gross						Gross			Gross
(In thousands)			Unrealized			Unrealized		Fair				Unrealized			Unrealized		Fair
Investments	Cost		Losses			Gains		Value		Cost		Losses			Gains		Value
Available-for-sale	$	19,104	$	(3,618	)	$	31,848	$	47,334	$	19,104	$	(12,237	)	$	32,035	$	38,902

Interest Rate Swap Agreements

The Company’s aggregate $6.0 billion notional amount interest rate swap agreements are designated as a cash flow hedge and the effective portions of the gain or loss on the swaps are reported as a component of other comprehensive income. The Company entered into the swaps to effectively convert a portion of its floating-rate debt to a fixed basis, thus reducing the impact of interest-rate changes on future interest expense. These interest rate swap agreements mature at various times through 2013.

The swap agreements are valued using a discounted cash flow model that takes into account the present value of the future cash flows under the terms of the agreements by using market information available as of the reporting date, including prevailing interest rates and credit spread. Due to the fact that the inputs are either directly or indirectly observable, the Company classified the fair value measurements of these agreements as Level 2.

CC MEDIA HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)

The Company continually monitors its positions with, and credit quality of, the financial institutions which are counterparties to its interest rate swaps. The Company may be exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the interest rate swaps. However, the Company considers this risk to be low. If a derivative instrument no longer qualifies as a cash flow hedge, hedge accounting is discontinued and the gain or loss that was recorded in other comprehensive income is recognized currently in income.

The Company’s interest rate swaps meet the four criteria in ASC 815-30-35-22, which states that if certain critical terms and matching criteria are met, the change-in-variable-cash-flows method will result in no ineffectiveness being recorded in earnings. In accordance with ASC 815-20-35-9, as the critical terms of the swaps and the floating-rate debt being hedged were the same at inception and remained the same during the current period, no ineffectiveness was recorded in earnings related to these interest rate swaps.

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments and recorded in “Other long-term liabilities” was $250.3 million and $237.2 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively.

The following table details the beginning and ending accumulated other comprehensive loss and the current period activity related to the interest rate swap agreements:


	Accumulated other

Note 6: COMMITMENTS, CONTINGENCIES AND GUARANTEES

The Company and its subsidiaries are currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, the Company has accrued its estimate of the probable costs for resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings.

At June 30, 2010, Clear Channel guaranteed $39.8 million of credit lines provided to certain of its international subsidiaries by a major international bank. Most of these credit lines related to intraday overdraft facilities covering participants in Clear Channel’s European cash management pool. As of June 30, 2010, no amounts were outstanding under these agreements.

As of June 30, 2010, Clear Channel had outstanding commercial standby letters of credit and surety bonds of $128.3 million and $46.6 million, respectively. Letters of credit in the amount of $15.7 million are collateral in support of surety bonds and these amounts would only be drawn under the letter of credit in the event the associated surety bonds were funded and Clear Channel did not honor its reimbursement obligation to the issuers.

These letters of credit and surety bonds relate to various operational matters including insurance, bid, and performance bonds as well as other items.

Note 7: CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

The Company is a party to a management agreement with certain affiliates of Bain Capital, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (together, the “Sponsors”) and certain other parties pursuant to which such affiliates of the Sponsors will provide management and financial advisory services until 2018. These agreements require management fees to be paid to such affiliates of the Sponsors for such services at a rate not greater than $15.0 million per year. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, the Company recognized management fees of $3.8 million and $7.5 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, the Company recognized management fees of $3.8 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

In addition, the Company reimbursed the Sponsors for additional expenses in the amount of $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The Company reimbursed the Sponsors for additional expenses in the amount of $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

On July 16, 2010, Clear Channel made the election to pay interest on the senior toggle notes entirely in cash, effective for the interest period commencing August 1, 2010.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Format of Presentation

Management’s discussion and analysis of our results of operations and financial condition should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes. Our discussion is presented on both a consolidated and segmented basis. Our reportable operating segments are radio broadcasting (“radio” or “radio broadcasting”), which also includes our national syndication business, Americas outdoor advertising (“Americas outdoor” or Americas outdoor advertising”) and International outdoor advertising (“International outdoor” or “International outdoor advertising”). Included in the “other” segment are our media representation business, Katz Media, as well as other general support services and initiatives.

We manage our operating segments primarily focusing on their operating income, while Corporate expenses, Other operating income (expense) — net, Interest expense, Equity in earnings (loss) of nonconsolidated affiliates, Other income (expense) – net and Income tax benefit (expense) are managed on a total company basis and are, therefore, included only in our discussion of consolidated results.

Executive Summary

The key highlights of our business for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 are summarized below:

•

Consolidated revenue increased $52.1 million and $107.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2009, including decreases of $6.6 million and increases of $20.4 million from movements in foreign exchange, respectively.

•

Radio revenue increased $31.2 million and $50.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2009, primarily from increases in national advertising.

•

Americas outdoor revenue increased $8.2 million and $9.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, compared to the same periods of 2009, primarily driven by increases in revenue across our advertising inventory, particularly digital.

•

International outdoor revenue was relatively flat for the second quarter of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, with growth across multiple markets being offset by decreases from movements in foreign exchange. Revenue increased $26.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2010 compared to the same period of 2009, primarily as a result of an increase from movements in foreign exchange.

•

Our subsidiary, Clear Channel Investments, Inc., repurchased $185.2 million aggregate principal amount of Clear Channel’s senior toggle notes for $125.0 million during the first six months of 2010.

•

We repaid $240.0 million upon the maturity of Clear Channel’s 4.50% senior notes due 2010 in the first six months of 2010.

Restructuring Program and Certain Credit Agreement EBITDA Adjustments

Clear Channel’s senior secured credit facilities allow Clear Channel to adjust the calculation of consolidated adjusted EBITDA (as calculated in accordance with the senior secured credit facilities) for certain charges. These charges include the restructuring costs discussed below. In addition, certain other charges, including costs related to the closure and/or consolidation of facilities, retention charges, systems establishment costs and consulting fees incurred in connection with any of the foregoing, among other items, are also adjustments to the calculation of consolidated adjusted EBITDA. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, Clear Channel adjusted the consolidated adjusted EBITDA calculation for an additional $2.0 million and $4.1 million, respectively. See “SOURCES OF CAPITAL” below for a description of the calculation of Clear Channel’s adjusted EBITDA pursuant to the senior secured credit facilities.

In the fourth quarter of 2008, we initiated a company-wide strategic review of our costs and organizational structure to identify opportunities to maximize efficiency and realign expenses with our current and long-term business outlook (the “restructuring program”). As of June 30, 2010, we had incurred a total of $293.2 million of costs in conjunction with this restructuring program.

The following table shows the expenses related to our restructuring program, which are also adjustments to Clear Channel’s consolidated adjusted EBITDA calculation, recognized as components of direct operating expenses, selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses and corporate expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
(In thousands)	2010		2009		2010		2009
Direct operating expenses	$	8,025	$	36,484	$	19,224	$	49,375
SG&A expenses		5,734		6,878		9,985		19,776
Corporate expenses		1,889		13,293		3,653		21,116

Total	$	15,648	$	56,655	$	32,862	$	90,267

No assurance can be given that the restructuring program will achieve all of the anticipated cost savings in the timeframe expected or at all, or that the cost savings will be sustainable. In addition, we may modify or terminate the restructuring program in response to economic conditions or otherwise.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The following discussion highlights our cash flow activities from continuing operations during the six months ended June 30, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Cash Flows


	Six Months Ended
	June 30,
(In thousands)	2010			2009
Cash provided by (used for):
Operating activities	$	52,792		$	(83,953	)
Investing activities	$	(105,553	)	$	(31,889	)
Financing activities	$	(326,503	)	$	1,373,498

Operating Activities

The increase in cash flows from operations in the first six months of 2010 compared to the same period of 2009 was primarily driven by improved profitability, including a 4% increase in revenue and a 3% decrease in direct operating and SG&A expenses. Cash flows from operations also increased as a result of a $42.3 million increase in deferred revenue and a $45.2 million increase in accrued interest, partially offset by a $67.0 million increase in accounts receivable.

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2010 primarily reflected capital expenditures of $103.4 million. We spent $11.1 million for capital expenditures in our Radio segment, $39.9 million in our Americas outdoor segment primarily related to the construction of new billboards, and $46.8 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to new billboard and street furniture contracts and renewals of existing contracts. In addition, we acquired representation contracts for $10.4 million and received proceeds of $11.1 million primarily related to the sale of a radio station and assets in our Americas and International outdoor segments.

Cash used for investing activities during the first six months of 2009 primarily reflected capital expenditures of $92.6 million. We spent $23.6 million in our Radio segment. We spent $34.3 million in our Americas outdoor segment primarily related to the construction of new billboards and $32.5 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to new billboard and street furniture contracts and renewals of existing contracts. We received proceeds of $23.5 million from the sale of our remaining investment in Grupo ACIR Communicaciones and $37.3 million primarily related to the disposition of radio stations and corporate assets.

Financing Activities

During the first six months of 2010, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Clear Channel Investments, Inc., repurchased $185.2 million aggregate principal amount of Clear Channel’s senior toggle notes for $125.0 million as discussed in the Debt Repurchases and Maturities section within this MD&A. In addition, we repaid Clear Channel’s remaining 4.50% senior notes upon maturity for $240.0 million with available cash on hand. We had a net increase of $43.8 million related to draws on our credit facility.

Cash provided by financing activities for the first six months of 2009 primarily reflected a draw of remaining availability of $1.6 billion under Clear Channel’s $2.0 billion revolving credit facility. We redeemed Clear Channel’s $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.25% senior notes with proceeds from our $500.0 million delayed draw term loan facility that was specifically designated for this purpose. Our wholly owned subsidiaries, CC Finco and CC Finco II, together repurchased $86.5 million of certain of Clear Channel’s outstanding senior notes. Financing activities also included payments of $466.8 million and $149.4 million on long-term debt and credit facilities, respectively. In addition, during the first six months of 2009, our Americas outdoor segment purchased the remaining 15% interest in our fully consolidated subsidiary, Paneles Napsa S.A., for $13.0 million.

Anticipated Cash Requirements

Our ability to fund our working capital needs, debt service and other obligations, and to comply with the financial covenant under our financing agreements depends on our future operating performance and cash flow, which are in turn subject to prevailing economic conditions and other factors, many of which are beyond our control. If our future operating performance does not meet our expectations or our plans materially change in an adverse manner or prove to be materially inaccurate, we may need additional financing. There can be no assurance that such financing, if permitted under the terms of Clear Channel’s financing agreements, will

be available on terms acceptable to us or at all. The inability to obtain additional financing in such circumstances could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and on our ability to meet Clear Channel’s obligations.

Based on our current and anticipated levels of operations and conditions in our markets, we believe that cash on hand as well as cash flow from operations will enable us to meet our working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other funding requirements for at least the next 12 months.

We expect to be in compliance with the covenants contained in Clear Channel’s material financing agreements in 2010, including the subsidiary senior notes, and including the financial covenant contained in Clear Channel’s senior credit facilities that limits the ratio of our consolidated senior secured debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to our consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the preceding four quarters. However, our anticipated results are subject to significant uncertainty and our ability to comply with this limitation may be affected by events beyond our control, including prevailing economic, financial and industry conditions. The breach of any covenants set forth in Clear Channel’s financing agreements would result in a default thereunder. An event of default would permit the lenders under a defaulted financing agreement to declare all indebtedness thereunder to be due and payable prior to maturity. Moreover, the lenders under the revolving credit facility under Clear Channel’s senior secured credit facilities would have the option to terminate their commitments to make further extensions of revolving credit thereunder. If we are unable to repay Clear Channel’s obligations under any secured credit facility, the lenders could proceed against any assets that were pledged to secure such facility. In addition, a default or acceleration under any of Clear Channel’s material financing agreements, including the subsidiary senior notes, could cause a default under other of our obligations that are subject to cross-default and cross-acceleration provisions. The threshold amount for a cross-default under the senior secured credit facilities is $100.0 million.

(1)		Includes $707.6 million and $788.1 million at June 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, respectively, in unamortized fair value purchase accounting discounts related to the merger.

We and our subsidiaries have from time to time repurchased certain debt obligations of Clear Channel and we may in the future, as part of various financing and investment strategies, purchase additional outstanding indebtedness of Clear Channel or its subsidiaries or our outstanding equity securities or outstanding equity securities of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc., in tender offers, open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. We may also sell certain assets or properties and use the proceeds to reduce our indebtedness or the indebtedness of our subsidiaries. These purchases or sales, if any, could have a material positive or negative impact on our liquidity available to repay outstanding debt obligations or on our consolidated results of operations. These transactions could also require or result in amendments to the agreements governing outstanding debt obligations or changes in our leverage or other financial ratios, which could have a material positive or negative impact on our ability to comply with the covenants contained in our debt agreements. These transactions, if any, will depend on prevailing market conditions, our liquidity requirements, contractual restrictions and other factors. The amounts involved may be material.

The senior secured credit facilities require Clear Channel to comply on a quarterly basis with a financial covenant limiting the ratio of our consolidated secured debt, net of cash and cash equivalents, to our consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the preceding four quarters. Clear Channel’s secured debt consists of the senior secured credit facilities, the receivables-based credit facility and certain other secured subsidiary debt. Clear Channel’s consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the preceding four quarters of $1.7 billion is calculated as our operating income for the period before depreciation, amortization, and other operating income (expense) — net, plus impairment charges and non-cash compensation for the period, and is further adjusted for certain items, including: (i) an increase for expected cost savings (limited to $100.0 million in any twelve month period) of $79.1 million; (ii) an increase of $17.8 million for cash received from nonconsolidated affiliates; (iii) an increase of $51.7 million for non-cash items; (iv) an increase of $111.1 million related to restructuring charges and other costs/expenses; and (v) an increase of $35.2 million for various other items. The maximum ratio under this financial covenant is currently set at 9.5:1 and becomes more restrictive over time beginning in the second quarter of 2013. At June 30, 2010, our ratio was 7.3:1.

USES OF CAPITAL

Debt Repurchases and Maturities

During the first six months of 2010, Clear Channel Investments, Inc. (“CC Investments”), our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, repurchased certain of Clear Channel’s outstanding senior toggle notes through an open market purchase as shown in the table below. Notes repurchased and held by CC Investments are eliminated in consolidation.


	Six Months Ended

(1)		CC Investments repurchased certain of Clear Channel’s senior toggle notes at a discount, resulting in a gain on the extinguishment of debt.

During the first six months of 2010, we repaid Clear Channel’s remaining 4.50% senior notes upon maturity for $240.0 million with available cash on hand.

Certain Relationships with the Sponsors

We are party to a management agreement with certain affiliates of Bain Capital, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P. (together, the “Sponsors”) and certain other parties pursuant to which such affiliates of the Sponsors will provide management and financial advisory services until 2018. These arrangements require management fees to be paid to such affiliates of the Sponsors for such services at a rate not greater than $15.0 million per year plus expenses. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, we recognized management fees of $3.8 million and $7.5 million, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2009, we recognized management fees of $3.8 million and $7.5 million, respectively.

In addition, we reimbursed the Sponsors for additional expenses in the amount of $0.6 million and $1.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. We reimbursed the Sponsors for additional expenses in the amount of $2.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009.

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings. Based on current assumptions, we have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Future results of operations could be materially affected by changes in these assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings.

Seasonality

Typically, our Radio broadcasting, Americas and International outdoor segments experience their lowest financial performance in the first quarter of the calendar year, with International outdoor historically experiencing a loss from operations in that period. Our Radio broadcasting and Americas outdoor segments historically experience consistent performance for the remainder of

the calendar year. Our International outdoor segment typically experiences its strongest performance in the second and fourth quarters of the calendar year. We expect this trend to continue in the future.

MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Risk

A significant amount of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, our earnings will be affected by changes in interest rates. At June 30, 2010, we had interest rate swap agreements with a $6.0 billion aggregate notional amount that effectively fixes interest rates on a portion of our floating rate debt. The fair value of these agreements at June 30, 2010 was a liability of $250.3 million. At June 30, 2010, approximately 38% of our aggregate principal amount of long-term debt, taking into consideration debt for which we have entered into pay-fixed-rate-receive-floating-rate swap agreements, bears interest at floating rates.

Assuming the current level of borrowings and interest rate swap contracts and assuming a 30% change in LIBOR, our interest expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010 would have changed by approximately $2.1 million and $4.2 million, respectively.

In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management may take actions to further mitigate its exposure. However, due to the uncertainty of the actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the preceding interest rate sensitivity analysis assumes no such actions. Further, the analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We have operations in countries throughout the world. The financial results of our foreign operations are measured in their local currencies. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we operate. We believe we mitigate a small portion of our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations with a natural hedge through borrowings in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. We estimate a 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would have decreased our net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2010 by approximately $1.1 million and increased our net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2010 by approximately $0.8 million, and that a 10% decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would have adjusted our net loss by a corresponding amount.

This analysis does not consider the implications that such fluctuations could have on the overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment in the U.S. or the foreign countries or on the results of operations of these foreign entities.

Inflation

Inflation is a factor in the economies in which we do business and we continue to seek ways to mitigate its effect. Inflation has affected our performance in terms of higher costs for wages, salaries and equipment. Although the exact impact of inflation is indeterminable, we believe we have offset these higher costs by increasing the effective advertising rates of most of our broadcasting stations and outdoor display faces.

Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by us or on our behalf. Except for the historical information, this report contains various forward-looking statements which represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including, without limitation, our future operating and financial performance and availability of capital and the terms thereof. Statements expressing expectations and projections with respect to future matters are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We caution that these forward-looking statements involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are subject to many variables which could impact our future performance. These statements are made on the basis of management’s views and assumptions, as of the time the statements are made, regarding future events and performance. There can be no assurance, however, that management’s expectations will necessarily come to pass. We do not intend, nor do we undertake any duty, to update any forward-looking statements.

A wide range of factors could materially affect future developments and performance, including:

	•		the impact of the substantial indebtedness incurred to finance the consummation of the merger, including the effect of our leverage on our financial position and earnings;

	•		the need to allocate significant amounts of our cash flow to make payments on our indebtedness, which in turn could reduce our financial flexibility and ability to fund other activities;

	•		risks associated with a global economic downturn and its impact on capital markets;

	•		other general economic and political conditions in the United States and in other countries in which we currently do business, including those resulting from recessions, political events and acts or threats of terrorism or military conflicts;

	•		the risk that our restructuring program may not be entirely successful;

	•		the impact of the geopolitical environment;

	•		industry conditions, including competition;

	•		fluctuations in operating costs;

	•		technological changes and innovations;

	•		changes in labor conditions;

	•		legislative or regulatory requirements;

	•		capital expenditure requirements;

	•		fluctuations in exchange rates and currency values;

	•		the outcome of pending and future litigation;

	•		changes in interest rates;

	•		taxes;

	•		shifts in population and other demographics;

	•		access to capital markets and borrowed indebtedness;

	•		the risk that we may not be able to integrate the operations of recently acquired companies successfully; and

	•		certain other factors set forth in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.

This list of factors that may affect future performance and the accuracy of forward-looking statements is illustrative and is not intended to be exhaustive. Accordingly, all forward-looking statements should be evaluated with the understanding of their inherent uncertainty.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Required information is presented under “MARKET RISK” within Item 2 of this Part I.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2010 to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC and is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

We are a co-defendant with Live Nation (which was spun off as an independent company in December 2005) in 22 putative class actions filed beginning in May 2006 by different named plaintiffs in various district courts throughout the country. These actions generally allege that the defendants monopolized or attempted to monopolize the market for “live rock concerts” in violation of Section 2 of the Sherman Act. Plaintiffs claim that they paid higher ticket prices for defendants’ “rock concerts” as a result of defendants’ conduct. They seek damages in an undetermined amount. On April 17, 2006, the Judicial Panel for Multidistrict Litigation centralized these class action proceedings in the Central District of California. On March 2, 2007, plaintiffs filed motions for class certification in five “template” cases involving five regional markets: Los Angeles, Boston, New York, Chicago and Denver. Defendants opposed that motion and, on October 22, 2007, the district court issued its decision certifying the class for each regional market. On February 20, 2008, defendants filed a Motion for Reconsideration of the Class Certification Order, which is still pending. Plaintiffs filed a Motion for Approval of the Class Notice Plan on September 25, 2009, but the Court denied the Motion as premature and ordered the entire case stayed until the 9th Circuit issues its en banc opinion in Dukes v. Wal-Mart, 509 F.3d 1168 (9th Cir. 2007), a case that may change the standard for granting class certification in the 9th Circuit. On April 26, 2010, the 9th Circuit issued its opinion adopting a new class certification standard which will require district courts to resolve Rule 23 factual disputes that overlap with the merits of the case. In response, the defendants asked the court to set a hearing date for argument on our Motion for Reconsideration of the Class Certification Order. In the Master Separation and Distribution Agreement between us and Live Nation that was entered into in connection with our spin-off of Live Nation in December 2005, Live Nation agreed, among other things, to assume responsibility for legal actions existing at the time of, or initiated after, the spin-off in which we are a defendant if such actions relate in any material respect to the business of Live Nation. Pursuant to the Agreement, Live Nation also agreed to indemnify us with respect to all liabilities assumed by Live Nation, including those pertaining to the claims discussed above.

We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of these claims. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

For information regarding our risk factors, please refer to Item 1A in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. There have not been any material changes in the risk factors disclosed in the 2009 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Additional information relating to risk factors is described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” under “Cautionary Statement Concerning Forward-Looking Statements.”
