         Effective at 11:59 p.m. on July 31, 2002, we changed our state of
incorporation from Illinois to Delaware. The change in our state of
incorporation was approved by our shareholders at our annual meeting of
shareholders held on June 14, 2002.

         The reincorporation in the state of Delaware was accomplished by
merging Cumulus Media Inc., an Illinois corporation, with and into its
wholly owned subsidiary, Cumulus Media Inc., a Delaware corporation, which was
the surviving corporation in the merger. The reincorporation will not result in
any change in our name, business, assets or operations.

         Our Class A Common Stock continues to be quoted on the Nasdaq National
Market under the symbol "CMLS." On August 9, 2002, the last reported sale price
of the Class A Common Stock on Nasdaq was $12.12 per share.

         INVESTING IN OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK.
