PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. PART I Item 1: Business This Report contains certain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995) and information relating to the Company that are based on the beliefs of the management of the Company, as well as assumptions made by and information currently available to the Company's management. When used in this Report, the words "estimate," "project," "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "expect" and similar expression are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Such statements reflect the current views of the Company with respect to future events and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those contemplated in such forward-looking statements. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as the date hereof. The Company does not undertake any obligation to publicly release any revisions to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. General Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. ("Pegasus", or together with its subsidiaries, the "Company") is a diversified media and communications company which operates in two media segments: multichannel television and broadcast television. Pegasus Multichannel provides direct broadcast satellite ("DBS") service and cable television ("Cable") service to 53,000 subscribers in four states and Puerto Rico in franchise areas that include 610,000 households and 79,000 businesses. Pegasus Broadcast owns and operates five television stations affiliated with the Fox Broadcasting Company ("Fox") and has entered into agreements to operate two additional television stations in two of these markets in 1997. The Company has grown through the acquisition and operation of media and communications properties characterized by clearly identifiable "franchises" and significant operating leverage, which enables increases in revenues to be converted into disproportionately greater increases in Location Cash Flow. Pegasus was incorporated under the laws of the State of Delaware in December 1993. Prior to October 8, 1996 the Company was a direct subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Holdings, Inc. ("PCH"). Effective October 8, 1996 the Company became a direct subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Corporation ("PCC") in connection with PCC's initial public offering of its Class A Common Stock. On December 30, 1996, as a result of a registered exchange offer made to holders of Pegasus' Class B Common Stock, Pegasus became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PCC. The Company's operating strategy is to generate consistent revenue growth and to convert this revenue growth into disproportionately greater increases in Location Cash Flow. The Company seeks to achieve revenue growth (i) in DBS by identifying market segments in which DIRECTV programming will have strong appeal, developing marketing and promotion campaigns to increase consumer awareness of and demand for DIRECTV programming within those market segments and building distribution networks consisting of consumer electronics and satellite equipment dealers, programming sales agents and the Company's own direct sales force, (ii) in Cable by increasing the number of its subscribers and revenue per subscriber through improvements in signal reception, the quality and quantity of its programming, line extensions and rate increases, and (iii) in TV by attracting a dominant share of the viewing of underserved demographic groups it believes to be attractive to advertisers and by developing aggressive sales forces capable of "overselling" its stations' share of those audiences. The Company seeks to convert increases in revenues into disproportionately greater increases in Location Cash Flow through the use of incentive plans, which reward employees in proportion to annual increases in Location Cash Flow, coupled with rigorous budgeting and strict cost controls. The Company's acquisition strategy is to identify media and communications businesses in which significant increases in Location Cash Flow may be realized and where the ratio of required investment to potential Location Cash Flow is low. The Company seeks to acquire new television and cable properties at attractive prices for which the Company can improve its operating results. 1 Recent Transactions Completed Acquisitions Since January 1, 1996, the Company has acquired the following media and communications properties: Television Station WPXT. The Company acquired WPXT, the Fox-affiliated television station serving the Portland, Maine Designated Market Area ("DMA") (the "Portland Acquisition"). Television Station WTLH. The Company acquired WTLH, the Fox-affiliated television station serving the Tallahassee, Florida DMA (the "Tallahassee Acquisition"). Television Station WWLA. The Company acquired a local marketing agreement ("LMA") with the holder of a construction permit for WWLA, a new television station authorized to operate UHF channel 35 in the Portland, Maine DMA (the "Portland LMA"). Under the Portland LMA, the Company will lease facilities and provide programming to WWLA. Construction of WWLA is expected to be completed in 1997. Cable Acquisition. In August 1996, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of the San German Cable System (the "Cable Acquisition"), serving ten communities contiguous to the Company's Mayaguez Cable system. Recent Sale New Hampshire Cable Sale. In January 1997, the Company sold its New Hampshire Cable systems (the "New Hampshire Cable Sale"). The New Hampshire Cable Sale resulted in net proceeds to the Company of approximately $7.1 million. Other PCC, the parent of Pegasus, consummated the initial public offering of its Class A Common Stock on October 8, 1996 pursuant to an underwritten offering. Purchasers of the Notes in the Company's 1995 Notes offering held all of the Company's Class B Common Stock. The Company, through a registered exchange offer, exchanged all of the Pegasus Class B Common Stock for 191,775 shares in the aggregate of PCC's Class A Common Stock. Employees As of December 31, 1996, the Company had 268 full-time and 34 part-time employees. The Company is not a party to any collective bargaining agreement and considers its relations with its employees to be good. Item 2: Properties The Company's TV stations own and lease studio, tower, transmitter and antenna facilities and the Company's cable systems own and lease studio, parking, storage, headend, tower, earth station and office facilities in the localities in which they operate. The Company leases office space in Marlborough, Massachusetts for its DBS operations. The television transmitter and antenna sites are generally located so as to provide optimum market coverage. The cable headend and tower sites are located at strategic points within the cable system franchise area to support the distribution system. The Company believes that its facilities are in good operating condition and are satisfactory for their present and intended uses.

(see footnotes on the following page) 5 Notes to Selected Historical Consolidated Financial Data (1) The Company's operations began in 1991. The 1993 data include the results of the Mayaguez, Puerto Rico Cable system from March 1, 1993 and WOLF/WWLF/WILF, WDSI and WDBD from May 1, 1993. (2) Incentive compensation represents compensation expenses which are calculated in proportion to annual increases in Location Cash Flow. (3) Location Cash Flow is defined as net revenues less location operating expenses. Location operating expenses consist of programming, barter programming, general and administrative, technical and operations, marketing and selling expenses. Operating Cash Flow is defined as income (loss) from operations plus (i) depreciation and amortization and (ii) non-cash incentive compensation. The difference between Location Cash Flow and Operating Cash Flow is that Operating Cash Flow includes cash incentive compensation and management fees. Although Operating Cash Flow and Location Cash Flow are not measures of performance under generally accepted accounting principles, the Company believes that Location Cash Flow and Operating Cash Flow are accepted within the Company's business segments as generally recognized measures of performance and are used by analysts who report publicly on the performance of companies operating in such segments. Nevertheless, these measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for income from operations, net income, net cash provided by operating activities or any other measure for determining the Company's operating performance or liquidity which is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. (4) The Company has not paid any cash dividends and does not anticipate paying cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Payment of cash dividends on the Company's Common Stock are restricted by the terms of the Company's Series B Notes. 6 Item 7: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations The following discussion of the financial condition and results of operations of the Company should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes which are included elsewhere herein. This Report contains certain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. The Company's actual results could differ materially from those discussed herein. General The Company is a diversified media and communications company operating in two business segments: multichannel television and broadcast television. The Company owns and operates five Fox affiliated television stations. The principal tangible assets of two of such stations were acquired in the first quarter of 1996. DBS operations consist of providing DIRECTV service in certain areas of New England in which the Company holds the exclusive right to provide such services. Its cable operations consist of systems in New England and Puerto Rico. The Company acquired an additional Puerto Rico cable system effective September 1, 1996. Results of Operations TV revenues are derived from the sale of broadcast air time to local and national advertisers. DBS revenues are derived from monthly customer subscriptions, pay-per-view services, Digital Satellite System ("DSS") equipment rentals, leases and installation charges. Cable revenues are derived from monthly subscriptions, pay-per-view services, subscriber equipment rentals, home shopping commissions, advertising time sales and installation charges. The Company's location operating expenses consist of (i) programming expenses, (ii) marketing and selling costs, including advertising and promotion expenses, local sales commissions, and ratings and research expenditures, (iii) technical and operations costs, and (iv) general and administrative expenses. TV programming expenses include the amortization of long-term program rights purchases, music license costs and "barter" programming expenses which represent the value of broadcast air time provided to television program suppliers in lieu of cash. DBS programming expenses consist of amounts paid to program suppliers, DSS authorization charges and satellite control fees, each of which is paid on a per subscriber basis, and DIRECTV royalties which are equal to 5% of program service revenues. Cable programming expenses consist of amounts paid to program suppliers on a per subscriber basis. Year ended December 31, 1996 compared to year ended December 31, 1995 The Company's net revenues increased by approximately $14.1 million or 44% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 as a result of (i) a $8.5 million or 43% increase in TV revenues of which $1.5 million or 17% was due to ratings growth which the Company was able to convert into higher revenues and $7.0 million or 83% was the result of acquisitions made in the first quarter of 1996, (ii) a $2.7 million or 187% increase in DBS revenues due to the increased number of DBS subscribers, (iii) a $2.0 million or 51% increase in Puerto Rico Cable revenues due primarily to acquisitions effective September 1, 1996, and (iv) a $864,000 or 13% increase in New England Cable revenues due primarily to rate increases and new combined service packages. The Company's total location operating expenses increased by approximately $8.6 million or 41% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 as a result of (i) a $4.8 million or 34% increase in TV operating expenses as the net result of a $115,000 or 1% decrease in same station direct operating expenses and a $4.9 million increase attributable to stations acquired in the first quarter of 1996, (ii) a $2.4 million or 176% increase in operating expenses generated by the Company's DBS operations due to an increase in programming costs of $1.4 million, royalty costs of $138,000, marketing expenses of $455,000, customer support charges of $199,000 and other DIRECTV costs such as security, authorization fees and telemetry and tracking charges totaling $237,000, all generated from the increased number of DBS subscribers, (iii) a $912,000 or 37% increase in Puerto Rico Cable operating expenses as the net result of a $64,000 or 3% decrease in same system direct operating expenses and a $976,000 increase attributable to the system acquired effective September 1, 1996, and (iv) a $489,000 or 15% increase in New England Cable operating expenses due primarily to increases in programming costs associated with the new combined service 7 packages. As a result of these factors, Location Cash Flow increased by $5.5 million or 51% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 as a result of (i) a $3.7 million or 62% increase in TV Location Cash Flow of which $1.6 million or 42% was due to an increase in same station Location Cash Flow and $2.1 million or 58% was due to an increase attributable to stations acquired in the first quarter of 1996, (ii) a $312,000 increase in DBS Location Cash Flow, (iii) a $1.1 million or 72% increase in Puerto Rico Cable Location Cash Flow of which $126,000 or 11% was due to an increase in same system Location Cash Flow and $988,000 or 89% was due to the system acquired effective September 1, 1996, and (iv) a $375,000 or 11% increase in New England Cable Location Cash Flow. As a result of these factors, incentive compensation which is calculated from increases in Location Cash Flow increased by approximately $407,000 or 77% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 due mainly to the increases in revenues. Management charges, which are comprised of fees calculated at 5% of net revenues plus an allocated share of corporate accounting costs, increased by $275,000 or 16% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 primarily due to the initiation of public reporting requirements for the Company. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $1.8 million or 21% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 as the Company increased its fixed and intangible assets as a result of three completed acquisitions during 1996. As a result of these factors, income from operations increased by approximately $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by approximately $3.8 million or 45% for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to the same period in 1995 as a result of a combination of the Company's issuance of Notes on July 7, 1995 and an increase in debt associated with the Company's 1996 acquisitions. A portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the Notes was used to retire floating debt on which the effective interest rate was lower than the 12.5% interest rate under the Notes, but having other less favorable terms. The Company reported a net loss of approximately $9.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1996 as compared to net income of approximately $1.6 million for the same period in 1995. The $11.1 million change was the net result of an increase in income from operations of approximately $3.0 million, an increase in net interest expense of $3.8 million, a decrease in extraordinary items of $10.5 million from extinguishment of debt, a decrease in the provision for income taxes of $150,000 and an increase in other expenses of approximately $92,000. Year ended December 31, 1995 compared to year ended December 31, 1994 The Company's net revenues increased by approximately $3.9 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 as a result of (i) a $2.2 million or 12% increase in TV revenues due to ratings growth and improved economic conditions within the Company's markets, which the Company was able to convert into higher revenues, (ii) a $293,000 or 5% increase in New England Cable revenues due to an increase in the number of subscribers and rate increases in August and September 1995, (iii) a $165,000 or 4% increase in Puerto Rico Cable revenues due primarily to a 6% rate increase implemented in March 1995, and (iv) $1.3 million of revenue from DBS operations which commenced in the fourth quarter of 1994. The Company's total location operating expenses increased by approximately $3.0 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 as a result of (i) a $1.6 million or 13% increase in TV operating expenses primarily due to increases in programming, sales and promotion expenses, (ii) a $115,000 or 4% increase in New England Cable operating expenses due primarily to increases in programming costs, (iii) a $130,000 or 6% increase in Puerto Rico Cable operating expenses due primarily to an increase in programming costs for existing channels, but also increases in the number of Spanish language channels offered by the system, and (iv) $1.2 million of operating expenses generated by the Company's DBS 8 operations which commenced in the fourth quarter of 1994. As a result of these factors, Location Cash Flow increased by $904,000 or 9% for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994. Management charges increased by approximately $271,000 for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 due to an increase in revenues and a change in the method used to calculate management charges for the TV stations from 15% of operating cash flow to 5% of net revenues. Depreciation and amortization expense increased by approximately $1.8 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 primarily as a result of the amortization of the Company's DBS rights and deferred financing costs. As a result of these factors, the loss from operations increased by approximately $1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994. Interest expense, net of interest income, increased by approximately $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 as a result of an increase in the average interest rate applicable to the Company's debt and an increase in the amount of debt outstanding both resulting primarily from the Company's note offering completed in July 1995. The Company's net income increased by $7.2 million for the year ended December 31, 1995 as compared to the same period in 1994 as a net result of an increase in the loss from operations of approximately $1.3 million, an increase in net interest expense of $2.5 million, a decrease in income taxes of $100,000, a decrease in other expenses of approximately $21,000 and an increase in extraordinary items of $10.8 million for the reasons described in "Liquidity and Capital Resources." Liquidity and Capital Resources The Company's primary sources of liquidity have been the net cash provided by its TV and Cable operations and credit available under its credit facilities. Additionally, the Company had $9.9 million in a restricted cash account at December 31, 1995 that was used to pay interest on the Company's Notes in January and July 1996. The Company's principal uses of its cash have been to fund acquisitions, to meet its debt service obligations, to fund investments in its TV and Cable technical facilities and to fund investments in Cable and DBS customer premises equipment that is rented or leased to subscribers. During the year ended December 31, 1996, net cash provided by operations was approximately $8.6 million, which together with $12.0 million of cash on hand at the beginning of the year and $38.9 million of net cash provided by the Company's financing activities was used to fund investing activities of $51.0 million. Investment activities consisted of (i) the Portland Acquisition and the Tallahassee Acquisition for approximately $14.8 million, (ii) the Cable Acquisition for approximately $26.0 million, (iii) the purchase of the Pegasus Cable Television of Connecticut, Inc. ("PCT-CT") office facility and headend facility for $201,000, (iv) the fiber upgrade in the PCT-CT Cable system amounting to $323,000, (v) the purchase of DSS units used as rental and lease units amounting to $832,000, (vi) payments of programming rights amounting to $1.8 million, and (vii) maintenance and other capital expenditures and intangibles totaling approximately $7.1 million. As of December 31, 1996, the Company's cash on hand approximated $8.4 million. During 1995, net cash provided by operations was approximately $6.1 million, which together with $1.4 million of cash on hand and $10.9 million of net cash provided by the Company's financing activities, was used to fund a $12.5 million distribution to PCH and to fund investment activities totaling $6.4 million. Investment activities consisted of (i) the final payment of the deferred purchase price for the Company's DBS rights of approximately $1.9 million, (ii) the purchase of a new WDSI studio and office facility for $520,000, (iii) the purchase of a LIBOR cap for $300,000, (iv) the purchase of DSS units used as rental and lease units for $157,000, (v) payments of programming rights amounting to $1.2 million, and (vi) maintenance and other capital expenditures totaling approximately $2.3 million. During 1994, net cash provided by operations amounted to $4.0 million, which together with cash on hand and borrowings of $35.0 million was used to fund capital expenditures of $1.2 million, to pay a portion of the deferred purchase price of the DBS rights for $943,000, to repay debt totaling $34.0 million, to fund debt issuance costs of $1.6 million and to pay programming rights of $1.3 million. 9 The Company closely monitors conditions in the capital markets to identify opportunities for the effective and prudent use of financial leverage. In financing its future expansion and acquisition requirements, the Company would expect to avail itself of such opportunities and thereby increase its indebtedness which could result in increased debt service requirements. There can be no assurance that such debt financing can be completed on terms satisfactory to the Company or at all. The Company may also issue additional equity to fund its future expansion and acquisition requirements. The Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness is limited under the terms of the indenture relating to its Series B Notes (the "Indenture") and its credit facility (the "New Credit Facility"). These limitations take the form of certain leverage ratios and are dependent upon certain measures of profitability. Under terms of the New Credit Facility, capital expenditures and business acquisitions that do not meet certain criteria will require lender consent. The Company is highly leveraged. As of December 31, 1996 the Company has indebtedness of $115.5 million, total stockholders' (deficiency) of $9.6 million and, assuming certain conditions are met, $20.4 million available under the New Credit Facility. For the year ended December 31, 1996 the Company's earnings were inadequate to cover its combined fixed charges by approximately $9.4 million. The ability of the Company to repay its existing indebtedness will depend upon future operating performance, which is subject to the success of the Company's business strategy, prevailing economic conditions, regulatory matters, levels of interest rates and financial, business and other factors, many of which are beyond the Company's control. The Company completed the $85.0 million Notes offering on July 7, 1995. The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture between the Company and First Union National Bank, as trustee. The Indenture restricts the Company's ability to engage in certain types of transactions including debt incurrence, payment of dividends, investments in unrestricted subsidiaries and affiliate transactions. During July 1995, the Company entered into a credit facility in the amount of $10.0 million (the "Old Credit Facility") from which $6.0 million was drawn in connection with the Portland and Tallahassee Acquisitions in the first quarter of 1996 and $2.8 million was drawn to fund deposits in connection with the Cable Acquisition. The Old Credit Facility was retired in August 1996 from borrowings under the New Credit Facility. The New Credit Facility is a seven-year, senior collateralized revolving credit facility for $50.0 million. The amount of the New Credit Facility will reduce quarterly beginning March 31, 1998. As of December 31, 1996, $29.6 million had been drawn under the New Credit Facility in connection with the retirement of the Old Credit Facility and the consummation of the Cable Acquisition. The New Credit Facility is intended to be used for general corporate purposes and to fund possible future acquisitions. Borrowings under the New Credit Facility are subject to among other things, the Company's ratio of total funded debt to adjusted operating cash flow. The Company believes that it has adequate resources to meet its working capital, maintenance capital expenditure and debt service obligations. The Company believes that the available borrowings under the New Credit Facility and future indebtedness which may be incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries will give the Company the ability to fund acquisitions and other capital requirements in the future. However, there can be no assurance that the future cash flows of the Company will be sufficient to meet all of the Company's obligations and commitments. Capital Expenditures The Company's capital expenditures aggregated $6.3 million in 1996 as compared to $2.6 million in 1995. The increase was primarily due to $3.1 million of nonrecurring expenditures relating to TV transmitter upgrades and Cable interconnections and fiber upgrades. The Company expects recurring renewal and refurbishment capital expenditures to total approximately $2.0 million per year. In addition to these maintenance capital expenditures, the Company's 1997 capital projects include (i) DBS expenditures of approximately $230 per new subscriber, (ii) Cable expenditures of approximately $1.0 million for the completion of the interconnection of the Puerto Rico Cable systems and fiber upgrades in Puerto Rico and New England, and (iii) approximately $6.5 to $7.5 million of TV expenditures for broadcast television transmitter, tower and facility constructions and upgrades. There can be no assurance that the Company's capital expenditure plans will not change in the future. 10 Other Under the terms of the Indenture relating to the Company's Series B Notes, the Company is prohibited from paying dividends prior to July 1, 1998. The payment of dividends subsequent to July 1, 1998 will be subject to the satisfaction of certain financial conditions set forth in the Indenture, and will also be subject to lender consent under the terms of the New Credit Facility. The Company's ability to incur additional indebtedness is limited under the terms of the Indenture and the New Credit Facility. These limitations take the form of certain leverage ratios and are dependent upon certain measures of operating profitability. Under the terms of the New Credit Facility, capital expenditures and business acquisitions that do not meet certain criteria will require lender consent. The Company's revenues vary throughout the year. As is typical in the broadcast television industry, the Company's first quarter generally produces the lowest revenues for the year, and the fourth quarter generally produces the highest revenues for the year. The Company's operating results in any period may be affected by the incurrence of advertising and promotion expenses that do not necessarily produce commensurate revenues in the short-term until the impact of such advertising and promotion is realized in future periods. The Company believes that inflation has not been a material factor affecting the Company's business. In general, the Company's revenues and expenses are impacted to the same extent by inflation. Substantially all of the Company's indebtedness bear interest at a fixed rate. In March 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." This Statement establishes standards for computing and presenting earnings per share (EPS) and applies to entities with publicly held common stock or potential common stock. This Statement is effective for financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997, earlier application is not permitted. This Statement requires restatement of all prior-period EPS data presented. The Company is currently evaluating the impact, if any, adoption of SFAS No. 128 will have on its financial statements.

F-1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the related consolidated statements of operations, changes in total equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 1996 in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements F-6 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The Company: Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. ("Pegasus" or together with its subsidiaries stated below, the "Company"), is a diversified media and communications company whose subsidiaries consist of Pegasus Broadcast Television, Inc. ("PBT"), Pegasus Cable Television, Inc. ("PCT"), Pegasus Broadcast Associates, L.P. ("PBA"), Pegasus Satellite Television, Inc. ("PST") and MCT Cablevision, L.P. ("MCT"). PBT operates broadcast television ("TV") stations affiliated with the Fox Broadcasting Company television network ("Fox"). PCT, together with its subsidiary, Pegasus Cable Television of Connecticut, Inc. ("PCT-CT") and MCT operate cable television ("Cable") systems that provide service to individual and commercial subscribers in New England and Puerto Rico, respectively. PST provides direct broadcast satellite ("DBS") service to customers in the New England area. PBA holds a television station license which simulcasts programming from a station operated by PBT. Prior to October 8, 1996 the Company was a direct subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Holdings, Inc. ("PCH"). Effective October 8, 1996 the Company became a direct subsidiary of Pegasus Communications Corporation ("PCC") as a result of PCC's initial public offering (the "Initial Public Offering") of its Class A Common Stock. On December 30, 1996, as a result of a registered exchange offer made to holders of Pegasus' Class B Common Stock, Pegasus became a wholly-owned subsidiary of PCC. On October 8, 1996, in conjunction with the Initial Public Offering, the limited partnerships which owned and operated the Company's Puerto Rico cable operations and owned one of its' broadcast licenses, restructured. This reorganization has been accounted for as if a pooling of interests had occurred. On October 31, 1994, the limited partnerships, which owned and operated PCH's broadcast television, New England cable and satellite operations, restructured and transferred their assets to the Company. This reorganization has been accounted for as if a pooling of interests had occurred. 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies: Basis of Presentation: The financial statements include the accounts of Pegasus and all of its subsidiaries or affiliates. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements: The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingencies. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates relate to barter transactions and the useful lives and recoverability of intangible assets. Inventories: Inventories consist of equipment held for resale to customers and installation supplies. Inventories are stated at lower of cost or market on a first-in, first-out basis. F-7 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued): Property and Equipment: Property and equipment are stated at cost. The cost and related accumulated depreciation of assets sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of are removed from the respective accounts, and any resulting gains or losses are included in the statement of operations. For cable television systems, initial subscriber installation costs, including material, labor and overhead costs of the hookup, are capitalized as part of the distribution facilities. The costs of disconnection and reconnection are charged to expense. Satellite equipment that is leased to customers is stated at cost. Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes using the straight-line method based upon the following lives: Reception and distribution facilities................ 7 to 11 years Transmitter equipment................................ 5 to 10 years Equipment, furniture and fixtures.................... 5 to 10 years Building and improvements............................ 12 to 39 years Vehicles............................................. 3 to 5 years Intangible Assets: Intangible assets are stated at cost and amortized by the straight-line method. Costs of successful franchise applications are capitalized and amortized over the lives of the related franchise agreements, while unsuccessful franchise applications and abandoned franchises are charged to expense. Financing costs incurred in obtaining long-term financing are amortized over the term of the applicable loan. Goodwill, broadcast licenses, network affiliation agreements and other intangible assets ("Intangible Assets") are reviewed periodically for impairment or whenever events or circumstances provide evidence that suggest that the carrying amounts may not be recoverable. The Company assesses the recoverability of its Intangible Assets by determining whether the amortization of the respective Intangible Asset balance can be recovered through projected undiscounted future cash flows. Amortization of Intangible Assets is computed using the straight-line method based upon the following lives: Broadcast licenses................................... 40 years Network affiliation agreements....................... 40 years Goodwill............................................. 40 years Other intangibles.................................... 2 to 14 years Revenue: The Company operates in two industry segments: multichannel television (DBS and Cable) and broadcast television (TV). The Company recognizes revenue in its TV operations when advertising spots are broadcasted. The Company recognizes revenue in its DBS and Cable operations when video and audio services are provided. F-8 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued): Programming: The Company obtains a portion of its programming, including presold advertisements, through its network affiliation agreement with Fox and also through independent producers. The Company does not make any direct payments for this programming. For running network programming, the Company receives payments from Fox, which totaled approximately $71,000, $215,000 and $73,000 in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. For running independent producers' programming, the Company received no direct payments. Instead, the Company retains a portion of the available advertisement spots to sell on its own account. Barter programming revenue and the related expense are recognized when the presold advertisements are broadcasted. Advertising Costs: Advertising costs are charged to operations in the year incurred and totaled $525,000, $613,000 and $975,000 for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. Cash and Cash Equivalents: Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments purchased with an initial maturity of three months or less. The Company has cash balances in excess of the federally insured limits at various banks. Restricted Cash: The Company had restricted cash, including interest earned, held in escrow of $9.9 million at December 31, 1995. These funds were disbursed from the escrow to pay interest on its Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 (the "Series B Notes") in 1996. Program Rights: The Company enters into agreements to show motion pictures and syndicated programs on television. In accordance with the Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 63, "Financial Reporting by Broadcasters" ("SFAS No. 63"), only the right and associated liabilities for those films and programs currently available for showing are recorded. These rights are recorded at the lower of unamortized cost or estimated net realizable value and are amortized on the straight-line method over the license period which approximates amortization based on the estimated number of showings during the contract period. Amortization of $1.2 million, $1.3 million and $1.5 million is included in programming expenses for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively. The obligations arising from the acquisition of film rights are recorded at the gross amount. Payments for the contracts are made pursuant to the contractual terms over periods which are generally shorter than the license periods. The Company has entered into agreements totaling $1.7 million as of December 31, 1996, which are not yet available for showing at December 31, 1996, and accordingly, are not recorded by the Company. At December 31, 1996, the Company has commitments for future program rights of approximately $1.3 million, $815,000, $363,000 and $18,000 in 1997, 1998, 1999 and 2000, respectively. F-9 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued): Income Taxes: On October 31, 1994, in conjunction with the incorporation of certain entities, the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes" ("SFAS No. 109") were adopted. Prior to such date, the above entities operated as partnerships for federal and state income tax purposes and, therefore, no provision for income taxes was necessary. MCT is treated as a partnership for federal and state income tax purposes, but taxed as a corporation for Puerto Rico income tax purposes. The adoption of SFAS No. 109 did not have a material impact on the Company's financial position or results of operations. For the year ended December 31, 1994, income and deferred taxes are based on the Company's operations from November 1, 1994 through December 31, 1994, excluding (i) MCT, which for Puerto Rico income tax purposes is taxed as a corporation for the 12 month period ended December 31, 1994, and (ii) PBA, which is a limited partnership. Concentration of Credit Risk: Financial instruments which potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade receivables are limited due to the large number of customers comprising the Company's customer base, and their dispersion across different businesses and geographic regions. 3. Property and Equipment: Property and equipment consist of the following:
December 31, December 31, 1995 1996 ---------------- --------------- Land........................................... $219,459 $822,298 Reception and distribution facilities.......... 22,839,470 29,140,040 Transmitter equipment.......................... 7,284,661 11,450,339 Building and improvements...................... 1,470,951 1,467,956 Equipment, furniture and fixtures.............. 1,058,369 1,199,563 Vehicles....................................... 571,456 765,689 Other equipment................................ 989,368 2,265,925 ---------------- --------------- 34,433,734 47,111,810 Accumulated depreciation.......................

December 31, December 31, 1995 1996 ----------------- ---------------- Series B Notes payable by Pegasus, due 2005, interest at 12.5%, payable semi-annually in arrears on January 1, and July 1, net of unamortized discount of $3,804,546 and $3,412,222 as of December 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively......... $81,195,454 $81,587,778 Senior seven year revolving credit facility, interest at the Company's option at either the banks prime rate, plus an applicable margin or LIBOR, plus an applicable margin (8.375% at December 31, 1996... - 29,600,000 Mortgage payable, due 2000, interest at 8.75%............................................ 517,535 498,468 Note payable, due 1998, interest at 10.0%............................................ - 3,050,000 Capital leases and other............................. 760,950 726,339 ----------------- ---------------- 82,473,939 115,462,585 Less current maturities.............................. 239,934 306,975 ----------------- ---------------- Long-term debt....................................... $82,234,005 $115,155,610 ================= ================
F-11 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 5. Long-Term Debt (continued): In October 1994, the Company repaid the outstanding balances under its senior and junior term loan agreements with a portion of the proceeds from a $20.0 million term note agreement ("senior note") and $15.0 million subordinated term loan agreement ("subordinated loan") from various banking institutions. The senior note and subordinated loan were scheduled to mature on December 31, 2001 and September 30, 2003, respectively. Amounts were subsequently repaid as described below, which resulted in an extraordinary loss of $633,267. In July 1995, the Company sold 85,000 units consisting of $85.0 million in aggregate amount of 12.5% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2005 (the "Series A Notes" and, together with the Series B Notes, the "Notes") and 8,500 shares of the Company's Class B Common Stock (the "Note Offering"). The net proceeds from the sale were used to (i) repay approximately $38.6 million in loans and other obligations, (ii) repurchase $26.0 million of notes for approximately $13.0 million resulting in an extraordinary gain of $10.2 million, net of expenses of $2.8 million, (iii) make a $12.5 million distribution to PCH, (iv) escrow $9.7 million for the purpose of paying interest on the Notes, (v) pay $3.3 million in fees and expenses and (vi) to fund proposed acquisitions. In November 1995, the Company exchanged its Series B Notes for the Series A Notes. The Series B Notes have substantially the same terms and provisions as the Series A Notes. There was no gain or loss recorded with this transaction. The Series B Notes are guaranteed on a full, unconditional, senior subordinated basis, jointly and severally by a majority of the wholly owned direct and indirect subsidiaries of Pegasus. The Company's indebtedness contain certain financial and operating covenants, including restrictions on the Company to incur additional indebtedness, create liens and to pay dividends. The Company is in compliance with all its financial and operating covenants. The fair value of the Company's Series B Notes approximates $91.8 million as of December 31, 1996. This amount is approximately $10.2 million higher than the carrying amount reported on the balance sheet at December 31, 1996. Fair value is estimated based on the quoted market price for the same or similar instruments. In conjunction with the acquisition of the WTLH Tallahassee, Florida FCC license and Fox affiliation agreement (see Footnote 12), the Company incurred indebtedness of $3.1 million. The fair market value of the note payable approximates the carrying amount. In August 1996, the Company entered into a $50.0 million seven-year senior revolving credit facility, which is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets. On the same date, the Company had drawn $8.8 million to repay all amounts outstanding under the $10.0 million senior collateralized five-year revolving credit facility and $22.8 million to fund the acquisition of Dom's Tele-Cable, Inc. ("Dom's"). Deferred financing fees relating to the $10.0 million revolving credit facility were written off, resulting in an extraordinary loss of $250,603 on the refinancing transaction. The $50.0 million revolving credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants as defined in the loan agreement, including a debt to adjusted cash flow covenant. The fair market value of the revolving credit facility approximates the carrying amount. At December 31, 1996, maturities of long-term debt and capital leases are as follows: 1997 $306,975 1998 3,283,016 1999 212,321 2000 59,816 2001 39,050 Thereafter 111,561,407 ================ $115,462,585 ================ F-12 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 6. Leases: The Company leases certain studios, towers, utility pole attachments, occupancy of underground conduits and headend sites under operating leases. The Company also leases office space, vehicles and various types of equipment through separate operating lease agreements. The operating leases expire at various dates through 2007. Rent expense for the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 was $464,477, $503,118 and $685,674, respectively. The Company leases equipment under long-term leases and has the option to purchase the equipment for a nominal cost at the termination of the leases. The related obligations are included in long-term debt. Property and equipment at December 31 include the following amounts for leases that have been capitalized: 1995 1996 ---- ---- Equipment, furniture and fixtures...... $334,715 $174,637 Vehicles............................... 196,064 446,372 ---------- ------------ 530,779 621,009 Accumulated depreciation...............

7. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities: Legal Matters: The operations of the Company are subject to regulation by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") and other franchising authorities, including the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control ("DPUC"). During 1994, the DPUC ordered a reduction in the rates charged by PCT-CT for its basic cable service tier and equipment charges and refunds for related overcharges, plus interest, retroactive to September 1, 1993 requiring PCT-CT to issue refunds totaling $141,000. In December 1994, the Company filed an appeal with the FCC. In March 1995, the FCC granted a stay of the DPUC's rate reduction and refund order pending the appeal. The FCC has not ruled on the appeal and the outcome cannot be predicted with any degree of certainty. The Company believes it will prevail in its appeal. In the event of an adverse ruling, the Company expects to make refunds in kind rather than in cash. The Company is currently contesting a claim for unpaid premiums on its workers' compensation insurance policy assessed by the state insurance fund of Puerto Rico. Based upon current information available, the Company's liability related to the claim is estimated to be less than $200,000. F-13 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 7. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities (continued): Legal Matters (continued): From time to time the Company is also involved with claims that arise in the normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate liability with respect to the above claims will not have a material adverse effect on the consolidated operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company. 8. Income Taxes: The following is a summary of the components of income taxes from operations:
1994 1995 1996 ---- ---- ---- Federal - deferred........................... $104,644 $23,000 $(169,000) State and local.............................. 34,818 7,000 49,000 -------------- -------------- --------------- Provision (benefit) for income taxes...... $139,462 $30,000 $(120,000) ============== ============== ===============
The deferred income tax assets and liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at December 31, 1995 and 1996, are as follows:
1995 1996 ---- ---- Assets: Receivables.................................................. $42,440 47,887 Excess of tax basis over book basis from tax gain recognized upon incorporation of subsidiaries............ 1,751,053 1,890,025 Loss carryforwards.......................................... 9,478,069 14,197,578 Other........................................................ 806,312 870,305 ------------- -------------- Total deferred tax assets.............................. 12,077,874 17,005,795 Liabilities: Excess of book basis over tax basis of property, plant and equipment............................................

(6,954,213) (10,683,639) ------------- --------------- Net deferred tax liabilities................................ $(169,462) $(49,462) ============= ===============
The Company has recorded a valuation allowance to reflect the estimated amount of deferred tax assets which may not be realized due to the expiration of the Company's net operating loss carryforwards and portions of other deferred tax assets related to prior acquisitions. The valuation allowance increased primarily as the result of net operating loss carryforwards generated during 1996 which may not be utilized. At December 31, 1996, the Company has net operating loss carryforwards of approximately $41.8 million which are available to offset future taxable income and expire through 2012.

("PBI"), which owns the tangible assets of WPXT, Portland, Maine. PCH immediately transferred ownership of PBI to the Company. The aggregate purchase price of PBI was approximately $11.7 million of which $1.5 million was allocated to fixed and tangible assets and $10.2 million to intangible assets. In June 1996, PCH acquired the FCC license of WPXT for aggregate consideration of $3.0 million. PCH immediately transferred the ownership of the license to the Company. Effective March 1, 1996, the Company acquired the principal tangible assets of WTLH, Inc., Tallahassee, Florida and certain of its affiliates for approximately $5.0 million, except for the FCC license and Fox affiliation agreement.

F-18 PEGASUS MEDIA & COMMUNICATIONS, INC. NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - (Continued) 15. Other Information (unaudited): As defined in the Indenture governing the Series B Notes, the Company is required to provide Adjusted Operating Cash Flow for Pegasus and its Restricted Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, where Adjusted Operating Cash Flow is defined as, "for the four most recent fiscal quarters for which internal financial statements are available, Operating Cash Flow of such person and its Restricted Subsidiaries less DBS Cash Flow (PST Operating Cash Flow) for the most recent four-quarter period plus DBS Cash Flow for the most recent quarterly period, multiplied by four." Operating Cash Flow is income from operations before income taxes, depreciation and amortization, interest expense, extraordinary items and non-cash management fees and incentive compensation. Restricted Subsidiaries carries the same meaning as in the Indenture. Pro forma for the acquisitions of WPXT, WTLH and Dom's, Adjusted Operating Cash Flow would have been approximately $17.6 million.
