Townsquare Media operates 62 radio stations in 13 mid-sized markets. The Company emerged from bankruptcy protection on April 27, 2010, less than two months after its initial Chapter 11 filing.

Messrs. Price and Rosenstein intend to make a significant equity investment in the Company.

Messrs. Price and Rosenstein will succeed William Stakelin and Anthony Vasconcellos, who resigned from the Company.

“Stuart and I are pleased to join Townsquare Media and look forward to building, through internal growth and acquisitions, a leading provider of local media, entertainment and commerce in small and mid-sized markets,” said Mr. Price. “The radio business is undergoing massive change and we are excited to invest in and build upon Townsquare Media’s leadership positions in its markets to develop a new media business for the 21^st century, focused on local media across multiple platforms.”

“I am delighted to have the opportunity to be part of the Townsquare team as it starts a new chapter and concentrates on expanding its audience, serving advertisers and driving innovative digital products,” said Mr. Rosenstein. “Together, we are focused on strengthening the Company’s operational execution and creating value for all of our stakeholders, particularly our clients, employees and investors.”

“We are excited about this partnership and the new leadership at Townsquare Media,” said Andrew Salter, Senior Vice President of Oaktree Capital Management. “At the same time, we thank Bill and Tony for their longstanding service to the Company and their stewardship during the bankruptcy process. As we focus on the future, we look forward to building a market-leading, valuable media business with Steven and Stuart.”

“Tony and I are both very proud of our accomplishments at Regent, which has consistently performed as a radio industry leader due primarily to the outstanding abilities of our employees,” said Mr. Stakelin. “We wish the Company well and wish the new owners and management team well with their decision to take the Company in a new direction.”
