Item 8.01—   Other Events.
     As previously reported, on August 1, 2011, Cumulus Media Inc. (the “Company”) completed the purchase of the remaining 75.0% of the equity interests of Cumulus Media Partners, LLC (“CMP”) that the Company did not already own. In addition, also as previously reported, on March 9, 2011, the Company entered into an agreement and plan of merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with, among others, Citadel Broadcasting Corporation (“Citadel”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to acquire all of the outstanding common stock and warrants of Citadel at a price equal to $37.00 per share, payable in a combination of cash and shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Citadel Acquisition”).
     In connection with its entry into the Merger Agreement, the Company entered into, and subsequently amended and restated, an investment agreement with certain investors (the “Investment Agreement”) pursuant to which such investors agreed to purchase up to an aggregate of $500.0 million in shares of the Company’s common stock, preferred stock or warrants to purchase common stock. On August 12, 2011, in order to satisfy its registration obligations under the Investment Agreement, the Company filed a registration statement (the “Registration Statement”) on Form S-3 (File No. 333-176294) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
     This current report on Form 8-K (this “Report”) is being filed to, among other things, update certain of the financial information included in, or incorporated by reference into, the Registration Statement. Specifically, the following financial information is hereby incorporated by reference into this Report:
     (1) the unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements of Citadel as of June 30, 2011 (Successor) and December 31, 2010 (Successor) and for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 (Successor) and 2010 (Predecessor and Successor) contained in Citadel’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 (File No. 001-31740), filed with the SEC on August 15, 2011;

     (3) the unaudited selected pro forma condensed consolidated financial information as of June 30, 2011 and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, included as Exhibit 99.2 to this Report.
     This Report, including the information contained in the exhibits incorporated by reference herein, contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws.

CUMULUS MEDIA PARTNERS, LLC
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)
1. Interim Financial Data and Basis of Presentation:
Description of Business
Cumulus Media Partners, LLC and subsidiaries (“CMP” or the “Company”) is a radio broadcasting company organized in the state of Delaware, focused on operating and developing commercial radio stations in the top 50 radio markets in the United States. At June 30, 2011, the Company held its radio broadcasting assets through two indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, CMP Susquehanna Corp. (“CMPSC”) and CMP KC, LLC (“KC LLC”), both of which it owns indirectly through its direct wholly-owned subsidiary CMP Susquehanna Holdings Corp. (“Holdings”). See Note 12.
Interim Financial Data
     The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of CMP and accompanying notes included in CMP’s audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2010. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of CMP’s management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of results of the interim periods have been made and such adjustments were of a normal and recurring nature. The results of operations and cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows that can be expected for any other interim period or for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2011.
     The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities. On an on-going basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts, intangible assets, derivative financial instruments, income taxes, and contingencies and litigation. The Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable and appropriate under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ materially from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
     ASU 2010-28. In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) provided additional guidance for performing Step 1 of the test for goodwill impairment when an entity has reporting units with zero or negative carrying values. This Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) updates Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 350, Intangibles — Goodwill and Other, to amend the criteria for performing Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts and requires performing Step 2 if qualitative factors indicate that it is more likely than not that a goodwill impairment exists. The Company adopted this guidance effective on January 1, 2011. The update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
     ASU 2010-29. In December 2010, the FASB issued clarification of the accounting guidance related to disclosure of pro forma information for business combinations that occur in the current reporting period. The guidance requires companies to present pro forma information in their comparative financial statements as if the acquisition date for any business combination taking place in the current reporting period had occurred at the beginning of the prior year reporting period. The Company adopted this guidance effective January 1, 2011. The guidance did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
     ASU 2011-04. In May 2011, the FASB issued an amendment to existing guidance relating to measuring fair value. The amendment clarifies the FASB’s intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and expands the required disclosures for fair value measurements. Expanded disclosures are required for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Additional disclosures are also required for nonfinancial assets that differ from the asset’s highest and best use when measured at fair value or when its fair value is measured on the basis of its highest and best use as well as the categorization by level of the fair value hierarchy for items that are not measured at fair value but for which the fair value is required to be disclosed. The amendments are effective for

interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.
2. Acquisition of CMP by Cumulus Media Inc.
     On August 1, 2011, Cumulus Media Inc. (“Cumulus”) completed its previously announced acquisition of the 75.0% of the equity interests of CMP that it did not own. For additional information about this acquisition, see Note 12.
3. Derivative Financial Instruments
     CMPSC entered into an interest rate swap agreement on June 12, 2008 (the “2008 Swap”). The 2008 Swap became effective as of June 12, 2008 and expired on June 12, 2011. The 2008 Swap changed the variable-rate cash flow exposure on $200.0 million of CMPSC’s long-term bank borrowings to fixed-rate cash flows. Under the 2008 Swap, CMPSC received LIBOR-based variable interest rate payments and made fixed interest rate payments, thereby creating fixed-rate, long-term debt. The 2008 Swap was not accounted for as a cash flow hedge instrument. Accordingly, the changes in its fair value are reflected within interest expense in the statement of operations.
     The fair value of the 2008 Swap was determined using observable market based inputs (a Level 2 fair value measurement). The fair value represented an estimate of the net amount that CMP would receive if the 2008 Swap was transferred to another party or canceled as of the date of the valuation. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company charged $1.6 million and $3.3 million, and $1.7 million and $3.3 million, respectively, to interest income within interest expense, net in the statement of operations related to yield adjustment payments on the 2008 Swap.
     The location and fair value amounts of derivatives in the condensed consolidated balance sheets are shown in the following table:

4. Fair Value Measurements
     The three levels of the fair value hierarchy to be applied to financial instruments when determining fair value are described below:
     Level 1 — Valuations based on quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access;

5


Table of Contents

     Level 2 — Valuations based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and
     Level 3 — Valuations based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.
     A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Company’s financial assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis.
     The carrying values of receivables, payables, and accrued expenses approximate fair value due to the short maturity of these instruments.
     The following table shows the gross amount and fair value of the term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities that constitute the senior secured credit facilities of each of CMPSC and KC LLC (see Note 5, “Long-Term Debt”):
                                 
    June 30, 2011   December 31, 2010
    CMPSC   KC LLC   CMPSC   KC LLC
     
Term loan:
                               
Carrying value
  $ 593,073     $ 69,228     $ 613,131     $ 69,228  
Fair value
  $ 585,682     $ 8,654     $ 576,077     $ 8,654  
Revolving credit facility:
                               
Carrying value
  $     $ 17,000     $     $ 17,000  
Fair value (1)
  $     $ 2,131     $     $ 2,131  
 
(1)   The KC LLC revolving credit facility was not actively traded during the three or six months ended June 30, 2011 or 2010.
     The fair values of the term loan facilities and revolving credit facilities are estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, based on the marginal borrowing rates.
     To estimate the fair values of the term loan facilities, the Company used quoted trading prices and an industry standard cash valuation model, which utilizes a discounted cash flow approach. The significant inputs for the valuation model include the following:
    discounted cash flow rate of 3.7%;
 
    interest rate of 2.2%; and
 
    credit spread of 2.7%.

CMPSC
Credit Facilities and Senior Notes
     In May 2006, CMPSC entered into a $700.0 million term loan facility and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility, which together comprise the “CMPSC Credit Facilities,” and issued $250.0 million in 9.875% senior subordinated notes due 2014 (the “9.875% Notes”), as described below. At the closing of these transactions, CMPSC drew on only the $700.0 million term loan, plus $3.3 million in letters of credit to cover pre-existing workers’ compensation claims, reducing availability on the revolving credit facility to $96.7 million. CMPSC is charged a commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. As of June 30, 2011, CMPSC had approximately $95.4 million of availability under its revolving credit facility.
     Obligations under the credit agreement governing the CMPSC Credit Facilities (the “CMPSC Credit Agreement”) are collateralized on a first-priority lien basis by substantially all of CMPSC’s assets in which a security interest may lawfully be granted (including Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”) licenses held by its subsidiaries) including, without limitation, intellectual property and all of the capital stock of CMPSC’s direct and indirect subsidiaries. In addition, obligations under the CMPSC Credit Facilities are guaranteed by CMPSC’s subsidiaries.
     The term loan has a repayment schedule that has required quarterly principal payments of 0.25% of the original loan since September 30, 2006. Any unpaid balance on the revolving credit facility is due in May 2012 and the term loan is due in May 2013.
     The representations, covenants and events of default in the CMPSC Credit Agreement are customary for financing transactions of this nature. Events of default in the CMPSC Credit Agreement include, among others, (i) the failure to pay when due the obligations owing under the CMPSC Credit Facilities; (ii) the failure to comply with (and not timely remedy, if applicable) certain covenants; (iii) certain cross defaults and cross accelerations; (iv) the occurrence of bankruptcy or insolvency events; (v) certain judgments against CMPSC or any of its subsidiaries; (vi) the loss, revocation or suspension of, or any material impairment in the ability to use any of CMPSC’s material FCC licenses; (vii) any representation or warranty made, or report, certificate or financial statement delivered, to the lenders subsequently proven to have been incorrect in any material respect; (viii) the occurrence of a Change in Control (as defined in the CMPSC Credit Agreement); and (ix) violation of certain financial covenants. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may terminate the loan commitments, accelerate all outstanding loans and exercise any of their rights under the CMPSC Credit Agreement and the ancillary loan documents as a secured party.
     As mentioned above, the CMPSC Credit Agreement contains certain customary financial covenants including:
    a maximum total leverage ratio;
 
    a minimum interest coverage ratio; and
 
    a limit on annual capital expenditures.
     The maximum total leverage ratio in the CMPSC Credit Agreement becomes more restrictive over the remaining term of the CMPSC Credit Agreement.
     As of June 30, 2011, CMPSC was in compliance with all of its required covenants.
     In accordance with the terms of the CMPSC Credit Agreement an excess cash flow payment of $16.6 million was made in the first quarter of 2011.

2008 Swap
     On June 12, 2008, CMP entered into the 2008 Swap, which effectively fixed the interest rate, based on LIBOR, on $200.0 million of CMPSC’s floating rate borrowings for a three-year period. The 2008 Swap expired on June 12, 2011.
     The interest rate for the term loan is 2.0% above LIBOR (2.2% at June 30, 2011) or 1.0% above the alternate base rate. The revolving credit facility rate is variable based on the levels of leverage of CMPSC, and ranges from 1.8% to 2.3% above LIBOR and from 0.8% to 1.3% above the alternate base rate.
Amendment to CMPSC Credit Agreement
     On May 11, 2009, CMPSC entered into an amendment to the CMPSC Credit Agreement. This amendment maintained the preexisting term loan facility under the CMPSC Credit Facilities, but reduced availability under the revolving credit facility thereunder from $100.0 million to $95.4 million (after giving effect to a repayment and permanent reduction in available credit of approximately $4.6 million).
     The amendment also increased certain pre-existing restrictions, including with respect to acquisitions, which per the amendment are limited to an aggregate of $20.0 million unless such acquired entities are added as loan parties, and the ability to undertake certain corporate actions.
9.875% Notes
     In May 2006, CMPSC issued $250.0 million in 9.875% Notes. The 9.875% Notes have an interest rate of 9.875% per annum and mature in May 2014. CMP Susquehanna Radio Holdings Corp. (“Radio Holdings”) and certain of its subsidiaries are guarantors under the 9.875% Notes.
2014 Notes
     Interest on CMPSC’s variable rate senior subordinated secured second lien notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) accrues at a floating rate equal to LIBOR plus 3.0% and is payable semiannually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2009. The 2014 Notes mature on May 15, 2014.
     The 2014 Notes are secured by second-priority liens on tangible and intangible assets of CMPSC and its subsidiaries to the extent they can be perfected by the filing of financing statements or other similar registrations and are permitted under agreements governing CMPSC’s other indebtedness, including the CMPSC Credit Agreement. Pledged assets do not include shares of capital stock of CMPSC or any of its subsidiaries or debt securities held by CMPSC or any of its subsidiaries.
     The 2014 Notes are (i) general obligations of CMPSC; (ii) secured on a second-priority basis by a security interest in substantially all of CMPSC’s existing and future assets to the extent pledged and assigned to the 2014 Notes trustee pursuant to the security agreement in favor of the holders of the 2014 Notes, subject and subordinate certain permitted priority liens; (iii) subordinated to all first-priority senior secured indebtedness of CMPSC (including the CMPSC Credit Facilities); (iv) effectively senior to all unsecured indebtedness of CMPSC; and (v) initially guaranteed on a second-priority senior secured subordinated basis by CMPSC’s direct parent, Radio Holdings and each subsidiary of CMPSC that guarantees the senior secured credit facilities. Each guarantee of the 2014 Notes is a second-priority senior subordinated secured obligation of the guarantor and is subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future first-priority senior indebtedness of such guarantor, including each guarantor’s guarantee of CMPSC’s obligations under the CMPSC Credit Facilities and structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness of non-guarantor subsidiaries of CMPSC.
     The indenture governing the 2014 Notes (the “2014 Notes Indenture”) contains covenants that limit CMPSC’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) pay dividends on or make distributions in respect of CMPSC’s capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) sell certain assets; (v) create liens on certain assets to secure debt; (vi) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of CMPSC’s assets; and (vii) designate CMPSC’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries. The 2014 Notes Indenture also contains a covenant providing that, to the extent required to permit holders of 2014 Notes (other than affiliates of CMPSC) to sell their 2014 Notes without registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”), CMPSC or Radio Holdings will make publicly available the information concerning CMPSC or Radio Holdings as specified in Rule 144(c)(2) under the Securities Act.

Table of Contents

     CMPSC may redeem some or all of the 2014 Notes at any time after the issue date at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date.
     Upon the occurrence of a “Change of Control” (as defined in 2014 Notes Indenture), each holder of 2014 Notes will have the right to require CMPSC to repurchase all of such holder’s 2014 Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount, plus any accrued and unpaid interest through the repurchase date.
     The 2014 Notes Indenture contains events of default that are customary for agreements of this type, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to pay certain other indebtedness and the occurrence of certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency and certain judgment defaults.
KC LLC
     In May 2006, KC LLC entered into a $72.4 million term loan facility and a $26.0 million revolving credit facility under the KC LLC’s credit facility (the “CMP KC LLC Credit Facility”). At the closing of the transactions, by which the Company was formed, KC LLC drew on the $72.4 million term loan, plus $5.0 million in letters of credit, reducing availability on the revolving credit facility to $21.0 million. KC LLC is charged a commitment fee of 0.5% on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility.
     The term loan had a repayment schedule that requires principal payments payable at the end of each quarter equal to 0.25% of the original loan. The unpaid balance on the revolving credit facility became due in May 2010 and the term loan became due in May 2011.
     Obligations under the CMP KC LLC Credit Facility are collateralized by substantially all of KC LLC’s assets in which a security interest may lawfully be granted (including FCC licenses held by its subsidiaries), including, without limitation, intellectual property and all of the capital stock of KC LLC’s direct and indirect subsidiaries.
     The representations, covenants and events of default in the credit agreement governing the CMP KC LLC Credit Facility (the “KC LLC Credit Agreement”) are customary for financing transactions of this nature.
     On January 21, 2010, KC LLC received a notice of default pertaining to the KC LLC Credit Agreement from the administrative agent thereunder (the “Agent”). The notice of default referenced the failure of KC LLC to make the scheduled principal and interest payments that were due and payable under the KC LLC Credit Agreement on December 31, 2009. Under the notice of default and pursuant to the KC LLC Credit Agreement, the Agent accelerated all obligations under the KC LLC Credit Agreement, declaring the unpaid principal amount of all outstanding loans, accrued and unpaid interest, and all amounts due under the KC LLC Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.
     Accordingly, the Company classified all amounts due under the KC LLC Credit Agreement as current (approximately $86.2 million).
     Furthermore, under the terms of the KC LLC Credit Agreement, interest on the outstanding loans thereunder, all accrued interest and any other amounts due began to accrue interest on December 31, 2009 at a default rate. Such default rate provides for interest at 2.0% per year in excess of the rate of interest generally provided for in the KC LLC Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the KC LLC Credit Agreement, the Agent may, and at the request of a majority of the lenders thereunder shall, exercise all rights and remedies available to the Agent and the lenders under law. These remedies include but are not limited to seeking a judgment from KC LLC for the monies owed and enforcing the liens granted to the lenders commencing foreclosure proceedings relative to the assets of KC LLC. The Company has held preliminary discussions with the Agent and certain of the lenders, who to date have not commenced any remedial actions.
     Neither the default under the KC LLC Credit Agreement, the acceleration of all sums due thereunder, nor the exercise of any of the remedies in respect thereof by the Agent or the lenders, constitute a default under the CMPSC Credit Agreement, nor provide the lenders thereunder any contractual right or remedy. Further, neither CMPSC nor any of its subsidiaries has provided any guarantee with respect to the CMP KC LLC Credit Facility.
     On February 4, 2011, the Company entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “KC Restructuring Agreement”) along with Radio Holdco and KC LLC regarding the restructuring of KC LLC’s debt with the lenders under the CMP KC LLC Credit Facility (the “KC Restructuring”). The KC Restructuring is expected to be implemented through a pre-packaged plan of reorganization filed

Table of Contents

with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Pre-packaged Bankruptcy Proceeding”). The Company expects the Pre-packaged Bankruptcy Proceeding will occur, and the KC Restructuring will be completed, during the second half of 2011. If the KC Restructuring is completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the KC Restructuring Agreement: (1) Radio Holdco will distribute all of the outstanding common stock of Radio Holdco to the Company; (2) KC LLC’s outstanding debt and interest of $96.4 million at June 30, 2011 will be reduced to $20.0 million; (3) all of the equity of Radio Holdco will be transferred to the lenders under the CMP KC LLC Credit Facility or their nominee; and (4) Cumulus will continue to manage the radio stations of KC LLC in 2011, subject to annual renewal of the management arrangement thereafter. As a result, the Company will no longer have an ownership interest in KC LLC. The KC Restructuring is expected to have certain tax implications for Radio Holdco in 2011 related to the cancelation of indebtedness but as a result of the loss attributes of Radio Holdco, the Company does not expect to pay a significant amount of income tax related to this transaction.

7. Members’ Deficit
     On October 31, 2005, the Company entered into a capital contribution agreement with Cumulus, affiliates of Bain Capital Partners, LLC (“Bain”), The Blackstone Group L.P. (“Blackstone”) and Thomas H. Lee Partners (“THL” and together with Bain and Blackstone, the “CMP Sellers”). Bain, Blackstone and THL each contributed $75.0 million in cash in exchange for 75.0 Class A voting units of the Company. Cumulus contributed $75.0 million of assets (the “KC LLC Contribution”) in exchange for 75.0 Class B voting units of the Company. Cumulus also received 25.0 units each of Class C1, C2, and C3 non-voting units of the Company. The KC LLC Contribution consisted of four radio stations in Kansas City, Missouri and Houston, Texas. The CMP Sellers and Cumulus each contributed an additional $6.3 million in cash for 6.25 Class AA non-voting units. In connection with this transaction, the Company paid $14.2 million to the CMP Sellers and Cumulus for their equity raising efforts; these payments were netted against the contributed capital of the CMP Sellers and Cumulus. The CMP Sellers and Cumulus, as the four members of the Company, each received a 25.0% interest in the Company. To the extent distributions are made, the distributions are based on each member’s allocable portion of the Distributable Assets, as defined by the capital contribution agreement.
     For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, CMP did not make distributions to any of its members.

     On March 26, 2009, in connection with CMPSC’s 2009 exchange offer relating to $175.5 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.875% Notes (the “2009 Exchange Offer”), Radio Holdings issued 3,273,633 shares of preferred stock and warrants exercisable for 3,740,893 shares of Radio Holdings’ common stock. With respect to the payment of dividends and the amounts to be paid upon liquidation, the preferred stock ranks:
    senior to the common stock of Radio Holdings and all other equity securities designated as ranking junior to the preferred stock;
 
    on a parity with all equity securities designated as ranking on a parity with the preferred stock; and
 
    junior to all equity securities designated as ranking senior to the preferred stock.
     On January 1, 2009, CMP adopted additional authoritative guidance relating to consolidations in accordance with ASC 810, Consolidations. The additional guidance required that non-controlling interests be reported as a separate component of equity on the Company’s consolidated statements of financial position. In conjunction with the 2009 Exchange Offer, Radio Holdings issued approximately $67.5 million in non-controlling equity interest related to the preferred stock and warrants.
     Dividends on the preferred stock are payable semiannually in arrears, only when, as, and if declared by the board of directors of Radio Holdings from funds legally available, payable in additional shares of the preferred stock, at an annual rate equal to 9.875% on, (i) the stated value per share of preferred stock and (ii) the amount of accrued and unpaid dividends (including dividends thereon, at an annual rate of 9.875% to the date of payment). Dividends are calculated and compounded semiannually and will be cumulative from the date of first issuance. Any dividends are calculated, based on a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months, and actual days elapsed over a 30-day month. CMP has not declared any dividends on the preferred stock.
     Subsequent to June 30, 2011, Cumulus completed the acquisition of the 75.0% of the Company that it did not own. See Note 12.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
     CMPSC is a limited partner in San Francisco Baseball Associates L.P. CMPSC owns rights to broadcast San Francisco Giants Major League Baseball games for the 2009 through 2012 baseball seasons. CMP is required to pay rights fees of $5.6 million each year. The carrying value of CMP’s investment in San Francisco Baseball Associates L.P. is $4.0 million as of June 30, 2011 and 2010. CMP accounts for this investment under the cost method and elected not to calculate the fair value of the investment as CMP’s management determined it would not be practicable due to excessive costs.
     CMPSC owns rights to broadcast Kansas City Chiefs National Football League professional football games during the 2010 through 2013 football seasons. The contract requires minimum rights payments of $2.9 million, $2.8 million and $2.9 million for the 2011, 2012 and 2013 football seasons, respectively. CMP expensed rights payments of $2.3 million for the 2010 football season in the second half of 2010.
     The radio broadcast industry’s principal ratings service is Arbitron, which publishes surveys for domestic radio markets. CMPSC and KC LLC have five-year agreements with Arbitron under which they receive programming ratings materials in a majority of their respective markets. The remaining aggregate obligation of CMPSC and KC LLC under their agreements with Arbitron was $6.8 million as of June 30, 2011 and will be paid in accordance with the agreements through June 2013.
     On January 21, 2010, a former employee of CMPSC filed a purported class action lawsuit, pending in the United States District Court, Northern District of California, San Francisco Division (the “Court”), against CMPSC claiming (i) unlawful failure to pay required overtime wages; (ii) late pay and waiting time penalties; (iii) failure to provide accurate itemized wage statements; (iv) failure to indemnify for necessary expenses and losses; and (v) unfair trade practices under California’s Unfair Competition Act. On September 2, 2011, CMPSC and this former employee entered into a Joint Stipulation re: Settlement and Release of Class Action Claims (the “Settlement”) with respect to such lawsuit. The Settlement, which remains subject to the approval of the Court, provides for the payment by CMPSC of a maximum of $0.9 million in full and final settlement of all of the claims made in the lawsuit.
     In March 2011, the Company was named as a defendant in a patent infringement suit brought against it as well as other radio companies, including Cumulus, Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., CBS Radio, Inc., Entercom Communications, Greater Media, Inc. and Townsquare Media, LLC. The case, Mission Abstract Data L.L.C., d/b/a Digimedia v. Beasley Broadcast Group, Inc., et al., Civil Action Case No: 1:99-mc-09999, U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware (filed March 1, 2011), alleges that the defendants are infringing or have infringed plaintiff’s patents entitled “Selection and Retrieval of Music from a Digital Database.” Plaintiff is seeking injunctive relief and unspecified damages. The Company intends to vigorously defend this lawsuit and has not yet determined what effect the lawsuit will have, if any, on its financial position, results of operations or cash flows.
     For all periods presented, CMPSC and KC LLC engaged Katz Media Group, Inc. (“Katz”) as their national advertising sales agent. The national advertising agency contract with Katz contains termination provisions that, if exercised by CMPSC or KC LLC during the term of the contract, would obligate CMPSC or KC LLC to pay a termination fee to Katz, based on a formula set forth in the contract.
     CMP is currently, and expects that from time to time in the future, it will be party to, or a defendant in, various claims or lawsuits that are generally incidental to its business. CMP expects that it will vigorously contest any such claims or lawsuits and believes that the ultimate resolution of any known claim or lawsuit will not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

9. Income Taxes
     The Company’s effective income tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 49.8% compared to 45.9% for the six months ended June 30, 2010. The Company’s effective tax rate increased in both periods as the result of KC LLC losses for which the Company is not able to record a tax benefit. Due to a history of losses and future inability to utilize such losses, the Company established a valuation allowance. The Company’s effective tax rate is comprised of two consolidated groups, KC LLC and Radio Holdings, which file separately for federal income tax purposes. As a result, losses from one consolidated group cannot be utilized to offset taxable income from the other. Prior to March 26, 2009, KC LLC and Radio Holdings filed one consolidated U.S. federal income tax return. However as the result of a deconsolidating event that occurred on March 26, 2009, the two consolidated groups must file separately for federal income tax purposes.
10. Restricted Cash
     CMPSC is required to secure the maximum exposure generated by automated clearing house transactions in its operating bank accounts as dictated by CMPSC’s bank’s internal policies with cash. As of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, CMP’s balance sheet included approximately $0.6 million in restricted cash related to the automated clearing house transactions, which funds are held in a segregated account.
11. Related Party
     At June 30, 2011, Holdings was party to a management agreement with Cumulus. Pursuant to the terms of the management agreement, Cumulus’ personnel managed the operations of CMP’s subsidiaries. In exchange, Holdings agreed to pay Cumulus an annual management fee of approximately 4.0% of the consolidated EBITDA of CMP’s subsidiaries or $4.0 million, whichever is greater, to be paid in quarterly installments. For each of the three and six month ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, Holdings paid approximately $1.0 million and $2.0 million, respectively, in management fees to Cumulus.
     On August 1, 2011, Cumulus completed the previously announced acquisition of the remaining 75.0% of the equity interests of CMP that it did not own and the management agreement was terminated. See Note 12.
12. Subsequent Event
     On August 1, 2011, Cumulus completed the previously announced acquisition of the remaining 75.0% of the equity interests of CMP that it did not already own. In connection with this acquisition, Cumulus issued 9,945,714 shares of its common stock to affiliates of the three private equity firms that had collectively owned 75.0% of CMP — Bain, Blackstone and THL. Blackstone received 3.3 million shares of Cumulus’ Class A common stock and, in accordance with FCC broadcast ownership rules, Bain and THL each received 3.3 million shares of newly authorized Class D non-voting common stock of Cumulus. Also in connection with the acquisition, outstanding warrants to purchase common stock of Radio Holdings were amended to instead become exercisable for up to 8,267,968 shares of common stock of Cumulus.

The following unaudited selected pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is based on the historical consolidated financial statements of each of Cumulus Media, CMP and Citadel, each of which have previously been, or are being herewith, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
 
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is intended to provide information about how each of the CMP Acquisition and the Citadel Acquisition, and the related refinancing transactions, might have affected Cumulus Media’s historical consolidated financial statements if such transactions had closed as of January 1, 2010 in the case of the statements of operations information, and as of June 30, 2011 in the case of the balance sheet information.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented on the following bases (in each case also giving pro forma effect to the completion of the 2019 Notes Offering only on the statement of operations information as of December 31, 2010, as such offering was completed on April 29, 2011):
 
  •  a CMP Pro Forma Basis, giving effect to the CMP Acquisition (including certain developments in its business);
 
  •  a Citadel Pro Forma Basis, giving effect to the Citadel Acquisition and the Global Refinancing (excluding any portion thereof related to refinancing of any indebtedness or other obligations of CMP); and
 
  •  an Overall Pro Forma Basis, giving effect to the CMP Acquisition (including certain developments in its business), the Citadel Acquisition and the Global Refinancing.
 
Pursuant to the Citadel merger agreement, Cumulus Media has agreed to issue to holders of Citadel common stock (including holders of warrants to acquire Citadel common stock) a number of shares of Cumulus Media common stock up to the Maximum Stock Scenario (plus an additional number of shares based upon the number of shares of Citadel common stock that are issued upon the exercise of stock options to purchase shares of Citadel common stock prior to the closing date of the Citadel Acquisition) and has agreed to pay to holders of Citadel common stock (including holders of warrants to acquire Citadel common stock) an amount of cash up to the Maximum Cash Scenario (plus an additional amount based on the number of shares of Citadel common stock that are issued upon the exercise of stock options to purchase shares of Citadel common stock prior to the closing date of the Citadel Acquisition, less the cash value of any dissenting shares), with the actual number of shares to be issued, and the amount of cash to be paid, dependent upon elections to be made by Citadel stockholders and warrant holders prior to the completion of the Citadel Acquisition. For purposes of this

Table of Contents

unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information, Cumulus Media has assumed that the merger consideration will consist of $1,254.9 million in cash and the issuance of 114,574,365 shares of Cumulus Media Class A common stock (which represents the arithmetic mean, or “midpoint” of the amount of cash which would be payable, and the number of shares of Cumulus Media common stock which would be issuable, to holders of Citadel common stock in each of the Maximum Cash Scenario and the Maximum Stock Scenario, and further assumes that all of the equity consideration in the Citadel Acquisition would be issued in the form of Cumulus Media Class A common stock), which shares have an assumed aggregate value of $316.2 million (based on an assumed price per share of Cumulus Media Class A common stock of $2.76, the closing price of such common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on August 22, 2011, the most recent practicable date). If Citadel stockholders and warrant holders make elections such that the merger consideration is payable at the Maximum Cash Scenario, Cumulus Media would potentially draw an additional $70.0 million under the revolving credit facility from what is borrowed under the mid-point model presented, which would result in incremental interest expense of $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and $3.9 million for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 in each of the following Citadel Pro Forma Basis and Overall Pro Forma Basis Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
The CMP Acquisition is being accounted for, and the Citadel Acquisition will be accounted for, as a business combination under the acquisition method and, accordingly, is expected to result in the recognition of assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value. However, as of the date hereof, Cumulus Media has not performed the valuation studies necessary to estimate the fair values of the assets it has acquired or expects to acquire, as applicable, and the liabilities it has assumed or expects to assume, as applicable, to reflect the allocation of the applicable purchase price to the respective fair values.
 
For purposes of preparing the following pro forma adjustments to reflect the CMP Acquisition, Cumulus Media has estimated the fair values of the indefinite-lived intangible assets based on information available as of December 31, 2010. For purposes of preparing the pro forma adjustments to reflect the Citadel Acquisition, Cumulus Media has carried forward the net book value of the tangible assets and indefinite-lived and definite-lived intangible assets from those appearing in Citadel’s consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2010, which have previously been filed with the SEC, as Cumulus Media does not have any independent third-party valuations or other valuation studies estimating the value of these intangible assets. However, due to Citadel’s application of fresh-start accounting upon its emergence from bankruptcy on June 3, 2010, Citadel’s tangible assets and intangible assets were adjusted to fair value during 2010. For each of the CMP Acquisition and the Citadel Acquisition, the excess of the consideration transferred or expected to be transferred, as applicable, over the fair value of the net assets acquired or expected to be acquired, as applicable, has been presented as an adjustment to goodwill. Cumulus Media has not estimated the fair value of other assets acquired or expected to be acquired or liabilities assumed or expected to be assumed, as applicable, including, but not limited to, current assets, property and equipment, current liabilities, other miscellaneous liabilities and other finite-lived intangible assets and related deferred tax liabilities. A final determination of these fair values will be based upon appraisals prepared or to be prepared by independent third parties and on the actual tangible and identifiable intangible assets and liabilities that exist or existed as of the closing date of each respective acquisition. The actual allocations of the consideration transferred may differ materially from the preliminary allocations assumed in this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information.
 
The presentation of financial information on a Citadel and an Overall Pro Forma Basis for the year ended December 31, 2010 includes the combined results of operations of Citadel for its predecessor and successor periods. In connection with its emergence from bankruptcy on June 3, 2010, as detailed in its filings with the SEC from time to time since that date and in accordance with accounting guidance on reorganizations, Citadel adopted fresh-start accounting as of May 31, 2010. Historical financial results of Citadel are presented for the “Predecessor” entity for periods prior to Citadel’s emergence from bankruptcy and for the “Successor” entity for periods after Citadel’s emergence from bankruptcy. As a result, financial results of periods prior to Citadel’s adoption of fresh-start accounting are not comparable to financial results of periods after that date. The combined operating results of Citadel including the Successor and Predecessor periods in 2010 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for a full fiscal year. Presentation of the combined financial information of the Predecessor and Successor for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 is not in accordance with accounting

Table of Contents

principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). However, the Company believes that the combined financial results are useful for their respective investors to assess Citadel’s ongoing financial and operational performance and trends.
 
The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information below is based upon currently available information and estimates and assumptions that Cumulus Media believes are reasonable as of the date hereof. These estimates and assumptions relate to matters including, but not limited to, Cumulus Media’s stock price at the date of closing of the Citadel Acquisition (assumed to be $2.76 per share, the closing price of Cumulus Media’s common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on August 22, 2011, the most recent practicable date), which was, and will be, used to determine a portion of the actual purchase price in each of the CMP Acquisition and the Citadel Acquisition, the LIBOR rate in effect for borrowings at the date of closing of the Global Refinancing, which will be used to determine the interest rate on borrowings under the Acquisition Credit Facility, and the form of the investment in Cumulus Media’s equity securities to be made by MIHI LLC pursuant to the Investment Agreement, which is assumed to be common stock, all of which will impact, among other things, Cumulus Media’s available cash, interest expense and stockholders’ equity. Cumulus Media has also assumed that the radio stations and other assets that Cumulus Media will be required to divest in connection with obtaining DOJ, FCC and other federal regulatory approvals required to complete the Citadel Acquisition will not be material to its consolidated financial position or results of operations and, as a result, Cumulus Media has not made a provision in this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information for any such divestitures.
 
Any of the factors underlying these estimates and assumptions may change or prove to be materially different, and the estimates and assumptions may not be representative of facts existing at the closing date of the Citadel Acquisition or at the date of the final purchase price allocation relating to either the CMP Acquisition or the Citadel Acquisition. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information is presented for illustrative and informational purposes only and is not intended to represent or be indicative of what Cumulus Media’s financial condition or results of operations would have been had the transactions described above occurred on or as of the dates indicated. The unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information also should not be considered representative of Cumulus Media’s future financial condition or results of operations. In addition to the pro forma adjustments to Cumulus Media’s historical consolidated financial statements, various other factors are expected to have an effect on Cumulus Media’s financial condition and results of operations, both before and after the closing of the Citadel Acquisition and the related financing transactions.
 
You should read the following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information in conjunction with the information under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” in each of Cumulus Media’s and Citadel’s Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the six months ended June 30, 2011, each of which has previously been filed with the SEC. You should also read this information in conjunction with each of Cumulus Media’s, CMP’s and Citadel’s consolidated financial statements and related notes, each of which have previously been filed, or are being herewith filed, with the SEC.

Footnotes to Pro Forma Adjustments
 
A.  Adjustments to reflect the KC Restructuring. On February 4, 2011, CMP, CMP Susquehanna Holdings Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of CMP and the parent company of Radio Holdings (“Radio Holdco”) and CMP KC, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of CMP (“KC LLC”), entered into a restructuring support agreement (the “KC Restructuring Agreement”) with the lenders under KC LLC’s credit facility (the “CMP KC Credit Facility”) regarding a restructuring of KC LLC’s debt (the “KC Restructuring”). The KC Restructuring is expected to be implemented through a pre-packaged plan of reorganization filed with the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the “Pre-packaged Bankruptcy Proceeding”). Cumulus Media expects that the Pre-packaged Bankruptcy Proceeding will occur, and the KC Restructuring is contemplated to be completed, during the second half of 2011. If the KC Restructuring is completed in accordance with the terms and conditions of the KC Restructuring Agreement, among other things: (1) Radio Holdco will distribute all of the outstanding common stock of Radio Holdings to CMP; (2) KC LLC’s outstanding debt and owners’ interest of $96.4 million at June 30, 2011 will be reduced to $20 million; (3) all of the equity of Radio Holdco will be transferred to the lenders under the CMP KC Credit Facility or their nominee; and (4) Cumulus Media will continue to manage the radio stations of KC LLC through the end of 2011, at which time the management agreement with respect thereto will be subject to annual renewal thereafter.
 
Because Cumulus Media does not expect that CMP will have a continuing ownership interest in KC LLC upon consummation of the KC Restructuring, pro forma adjustments have been made to exclude KC LLC’s financial condition and results of operations as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2010 from CMP’s corresponding historical results of operations and financial condition in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information, and these related footnotes.
 
B.  Adjustments to reflect the termination of the CMP Management Agreement and write off of deferred financing fees and debt discount, net of tax. Prior to the completion of the CMP Acquisition, Cumulus Media managed the CMP business pursuant to a management agreement (the “CMP Management Agreement”). Under the terms of the CMP Management Agreement, CMP was required to pay to Cumulus Media the greater of $4.0 million or 4% of Radio Holdco’s adjusted EBITDA on an annual basis. Such amount has been eliminated in the consolidated pro forma statements of operations. At June 30, 2011, Cumulus Media had deferred revenue of $1.0 million and CMP had prepaid expenses of $1.0 million related to this agreement. Upon the closing of the CMP Acquisition, the CMP Management Agreement was terminated.

Pro forma adjustment to line item, “Management fees”
  $ 4,000  
Pro forma adjustment to line item, “Corporate general and administrative expenses”
  $ 4,000  
 
C.  Adjustments to reflect issuance of the 2019 Notes. Pro forma adjustments reflect amortization of the deferred financing costs associated with the issuance of the 2019 Notes for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively. Deferred financing fees are amortized through interest expense using the effective interest method. As a result, interest expense on a CMP Pro Forma Basis was $33.6 million and $70.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively.

E.  Adjustments to reflect the CMP Acquisition. The CMP Acquisition resulted in the issuance by Cumulus Media of 9,945,714 shares of its common stock and the elimination of CMP and KC LLC’s historical members’ equity. The amount reflected in retained earnings (accumulated deficit) in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated balance sheet includes the gain recognized on Cumulus Media’s existing equity interest in CMP. The gain of $11.6 million is the difference between the estimated fair value of Cumulus Media’s investment in CMP immediately prior to the completion of the CMP Acquisition and the book value of such investment, which had been reduced to zero in Cumulus Media’s historical consolidated financial statements as a result of CMP’s accumulated historical losses.

F.  Adjustments to reflect the Citadel Acquisition. For purposes of this unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information, Cumulus Media has assumed that the merger consideration will consist of a payment of $1,254.9 million in cash (which represents the arithmetic mean, or “midpoint,” of the amount of cash which would be payable to holders of Citadel common stock and warrants in each of the Maximum Stock Scenario and the Maximum Cash Scenario), and the issuance of 114,574,365 shares of Cumulus Class A common stock (which represents the arithmetic mean, or “midpoint,” of the number of shares of Cumulus Media Class A common stock that would be issued to holders of Citadel common stock and warrants in each of the Maximum Stock Scenario and the Maximum Cash Scenario, and has further assumed that all of the equity consideration payable in the Citadel Acquisition would be in the form of Cumulus Media Class A common stock), which shares have an assumed aggregate value of $316.2 million (based on an assumed price per share of Cumulus Media common stock of $2.76, the closing price of such common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on August 22, 2011, the most recent practicable date). Because applicable accounting guidance prohibits the inclusion of the impact of any cash flow from operations generated by CMP or expected to be generated by Citadel prior to the closing date of each respective transaction in this unaudited condensed consolidated pro forma financial information, and also prohibits the inclusion of any expected cost synergies related thereto, in the event of the Maximum Cash Scenario, an additional $70.0 million of borrowings under the revolving credit facility under the Acquisition Credit Facility and a corresponding increase of $1.9 million and $3.9 million in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, would be required to fund such payments, and would also be included in the presentation on an Overall Pro Forma Basis.
 
The final adjustment to reflect the issuance of Cumulus Media common stock in the Citadel Acquisition will depend upon the actual number of shares of Cumulus Media common stock issued and the market price thereof on the closing date, and could be materially different from that presented herein. The Citadel Acquisition will also result in the elimination of Citadel’s historical equity, including $7.9 million of successor equity held in reserve. Cumulus Media has also eliminated $2.9 million of intercompany receivables and payables. However, due to the related intercompany revenue and expense being recorded in the same line item category, no elimination is required for the statement of operations.
 
The cash portion of the purchase price in the Citadel Acquisition is expected to be funded pursuant to the Global Refinancing. The Overall Pro Forma Basis adjustments include an assumed $25.3 million in payments received pursuant to the acceleration and cashless exercise provisions relating to options to purchase Citadel common stock (and unvested restricted common stock) pursuant to the agreement

G.  Adjustment to recognize additional severance and retention bonuses to be paid to Citadel employees and executives in connection with the Citadel Acquisition. Severance amounts of $17.7 million and retention bonuses of $13.0 million were negotiated as a part of the merger agreement, or will otherwise be due under preexisting agreements, and will be accounted for in accordance with ASC 805, Business Combinations. Retention bonuses of $6.5 million for pre-acquisition services will be payable as of the date of the closing of the Citadel Acquisition and are reflected in the Overall Pro Forma Basis Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. The remaining $6.5 million of retention bonuses for post-acquisition services will be payable subsequent to the closing of the Citadel Acquisition and are reflected in the Overall Pro Forma Basis Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
 
H.  Adjustments to reflect Equity Investment. Pursuant to the terms of the Investment Agreement, Cumulus Media has agreed to sell up to $500.0 million, in the aggregate, of its equity securities to the Investors, net of fees of $21.4 million. To the extent that the consideration payable in the Citadel Acquisition requires the payment of cash in an amount less than the Maximum Cash Scenario, the Investors’ commitments will be reduced, subject to a minimum investment of $395.0 million. In addition, under certain circumstances in which Cumulus Media does not require MIHI LLC’s full investment to consummate the Citadel Acquisition, MIHI LLC may elect to reduce its investment by an equivalent amount. Based on the assumed cash consideration payable to Citadel stockholders of $1,254.9 million, the value of the equity securities to be sold pursuant to the Investment Agreement is $373.6 million, net of fees of $21.4 million.
 
This Investment Agreement provides that MIHI LLC may, at its option, elect to receive up to its full $125.0 million commitment amount in shares of a newly created class of perpetual redeemable, non-convertible preferred stock. This preferred stock would pay dividends at a rate of 10% per annum for the first six months from issuance, 14% per annum through the second anniversary of issuance, 17% per annum plus the positive change in LIBOR from the closing of the Equity Investment to each even-numbered anniversary thereof (the “LIBOR Increase Amount”) through the fourth anniversary of issuance, and 20% per annum plus the LIBOR Increase Amount thereafter. Dividends would be payable in cash but,


P-20


Table of Contents

at the option of Cumulus Media, up to 50% of the dividends could be paid-in-kind. Assuming MIHI LLC elected to receive $125.0 million of its investment in preferred stock and Cumulus Media paid cash dividends thereon, the Overall Pro Forma Basis financial information would have reflected dividend interest expense of $15.2 million, of which $7.6 million would be payable in cash. This redeemable preferred stock would be classified as a liability and any related dividend would be recorded in the statement of operations.
 
I.  Adjustments to reflect the debt to be incurred pursuant to the Global Refinancing. In connection with the repayment of the outstanding indebtedness of each of Cumulus Media, CMP (excluding KC LLC) and Citadel contemplated by the Global Refinancing, the debt of Cumulus Media, CMP and Citadel will be eliminated. Additionally, $1.5 million of non-cash accrued interest on exchanged notes related to the CMPSC Credit Agreement has been eliminated in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information. As a result, interest expense on an Overall Pro Forma Basis is $101.0 million and $203.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively. Cumulus Media expects to record deferred financing fees of $53.8 million and debt discount of $25.1 million and related amortization of $4.6 million and $10.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and for the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, in connection with the Global Refinancing.

(c) In accordance with the Debt Commitment, there is expected to be a 1.0% LIBOR floor on borrowings under the revolving credit facility. Due to the 30 day LIBOR rate being below this floor as of the most recent practicable date, Cumulus Media used this floor plus a spread of 450 basis points, the spread provided for such loans in the Debt Commitment, to determine, on an Overall Pro Forma Basis, the interest rate.

As a result, interest expense on a Citadel Pro Forma Basis increased to $77.0 million and $153.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs. Cumulus recorded deferred financing costs of $53.8 million and debt discount of $15.5 million and related amortization of $4.6 million and $8.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011 and the year ended December 31, 2010, respectively,

(e) Pro forma interest expense does not include $31.0 million of make whole premium related to the Citadel Senior Notes.
 
Interest rate sensitivity analyses
 
The accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information includes certain adjustments for pro forma interest expense, which are reflected in the accompanying unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated statements of operations. These pro forma adjustments are based upon certain assumptions contained in these notes to unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated financial information. Assuming a pro forma 1/8% positive or negative change in the interest rate on borrowings under the Acquisition Credit Facility, it is estimated that the interest expense on borrowings under the Acquisition Credit Facility would have changed by $1.4 million and $1.7 million on a Citadel and Overall Pro Forma Basis, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2011, and $2.8 million and $3.4 million on a Citadel and an Overall Pro Forma Basis, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2010, in each case assuming the Maximum Cash Scenario (refer to note (I)).
 
J.   Accrual and payment of CMP preferred stock and related dividends. Pursuant to the terms of the agreement governing the CMP Acquisition, in connection with the closing of the Citadel Acquisition, Cumulus Media has agreed to redeem the outstanding CMP preferred stock at par value plus accrued dividends. On a CMP Pro Forma Basis, Cumulus Media does not contemplate the acquisition of Citadel and as such, does not include the redemption of the CMP preferred stock, nor the accrual of dividends on said stock. On an Overall Pro Forma Basis, Cumulus Media includes the assumption that the Citadel Acquisition will have been completed and as such, recorded an adjustment which increased the CMP preferred stock by $14.7 million to reflect its redemption value of $38.8 million in noncontrolling interest. Additionally, Cumulus Media assumes the redemption of the $38.8 million of CMP preferred stock, resulting in $0.0 million of noncontrolling interest on an Overall Pro Forma Basis.
 
K.  Adjustments to increase pro forma depreciation and amortization expense to reflect the impact of the increase in estimated fair value of tangible assets and amortizable intangible assets due to Citadel’s application of fresh-start accounting. Net fresh start accounting valuation adjustments in connection with Citadel’s application of fresh-start accounting increased the book value of Citadel’s assets, excluding goodwill, by $543.8 million. In addition to revaluing existing assets, Citadel recorded certain previously unrecognized assets, including customer and affiliate relationships and income contracts.

Adjustment for reorganization items, as shown below, which were a direct result of Citadel’s filing for protection pursuant to Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”):
 
         
 
Gain on extinguishment of debt
  $ (139,813 )

Overall Pro Forma Basis adjustment to line item, “Other income (expense), net”
  $ (993,108 )
         
 
(a) On the date Citadel emerged from protection under the Bankruptcy Code (the “Citadel Emergence Date”), debt outstanding under its Predecessor Senior Credit and Term Facility was converted into debt outstanding under a new term loan facility (the “Emergence Term Loan Facility”). A valuation adjustment of $19.1 million was recorded to reflect the Emergence Term Loan Facility at its estimated fair value upon issuance. This valuation adjustment was being amortized as a reduction of interest expense, net, over the contractual term of the Emergence Term Loan Facility.
 
Pursuant to the terms of the Emergence Term Loan Facility, a prepayment penalty of $38.0 million was incurred. This was netted against the write off of the unamortized balance of the valuation adjustment of $17.1 million, which resulted in Citadel incurring a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $21.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2010 as follows:
 
         
Citadel financial statement line item
