Explanatory Note

This Amendment No. 5 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (the “Amendment”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO filed on July 18, 2018 as amended and supplemented by Amendment No. 1 thereto filed on July 31, 2018 and by Amendment No. 2 thereto filed on August 9, 2018 and by Amendment No. 3 thereto filed on August 14, 2018 and by Amendment No. 4 thereto filed on August 16, 2018 (the “Schedule TO”) by Townsquare Media, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to Rule 13e-4 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, in connection with the Company’s offer (the “Offer”) to eligible participants to exchange certain outstanding eligible stock options to purchase shares of Townsquare common stock, $0.01 par value per share for replacement options that will be granted under Townsquare’s 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan. This Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange Eligible Options for Replacement Options dated July 18, 2018, as amended on July 31, 2018 and August 14, 2018.

This Amendment is made to report the results of the Offer, to revise Item 12 (Exhibits) in its entirety and to amend Exhibit (a)(1)(K) to the Schedule TO. The information in the Schedule TO, including all schedules and annexes to the Schedule TO, which were previously filed with the Schedule TO, is incorporated herein by reference to answer the items required in this Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided in this Amendment. Except as specifically set forth herein, this Amendment does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO.

ITEM 4.TERMS OF THE TRANSACTION
Item 4 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:

(a)    Material Terms. The option exchange offer expired at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on August 16, 2018. Pursuant to the exchange offer, eligible option holders tendered, and Townsquare accepted for cancellation, eligible options to purchase an aggregate of 7,576,109 shares of Townsquare common stock from 109 participants, representing approximately 95.3% of the total shares of common stock underlying options eligible for exchange in the exchange offer. Of the 7,576,109 eligible options tendered in the exchange offer, approximately 42.6% were exercisable for shares of Townsquare's Class A common stock and approximately 57.4% were exercisable for shares of Townsquare's Class B common stock. On August 17, 2018, Townsquare granted replacement options to eligible option holders to purchase approximately 2.8 million shares of Class A common stock and approximately 3.8 million shares of Class B common stock in exchange for the cancellation of the tendered eligible options. The exercise price per share of the replacement options granted in the exchange offer was $8.74, the closing price of Townsquare’s Class A common stock as reported on the NYSE on August 16, 2018 plus $0.50. The exchange ratios applicable to the eligible options tendered in the exchange offer were as follows:

(1) If application of the applicable exchange ratio to a particular replacement option to be granted in exchange for an eligible option tendered results in a fractional share, the number of shares underlying the replacement option will be rounded down to the nearest whole share. No consideration will be paid for such fractional shares.

* The exercise price of the replacement options is greater than the exercise price of the corresponding eligible options. Accordingly, any elections to exchange such eligible options will be disregarded, and such eligible options will remain outstanding in accordance with their current terms.
