ITEM 1: BUSINESS

General

         Pegasus Communications is:

         o  the only publicly traded satellite TV company primarily focused on
            providing services to rural and underserved areas of the United
            States;

         o  one of the fastest growing media companies in the United States in
            terms of compound revenue growth rate;

         o  the tenth largest multichannel video provider in the United States
            and the third largest direct broadcast satellite ("DBS") provider;

         o  the largest independent distributor of DIRECTV programming with
            approximately 1.5 million subscribers at December 31, 2001, the
            exclusive right to distribute DIRECTV digital broadcast satellite
            services to approximately 7.5 million rural households in 41 states
            and a retail network of over 3,000 independent retailers;

         o  the holder of an FCC license to launch and operate Ka-band
            geostationary satellites at five different orbital locations,
            including locations at 107(Degree)W and 117(Degree)W, which will
            permit the delivery of service to the entire continental U.S; and

         o  the owner or programmer of eleven TV stations affiliated with either
            Fox, UPN or the WB.

         We have changed the way in which we report the number of our
subscribers, effective with the first quarter of 2002. If we had done this in
2001, we would have reported approximately 1.4 million subscribers at December
31, 2001. See ITEM 7: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS - Results of Operations - Comparison of 2001
to 2000 - Direct Broadcast Satellite Business - Revenues.


Corporate Reorganization

         On February 22, 2001, Pegasus Communications adopted a new holding
company structure. In the reorganization, all of the common and preferred stock
of our subsidiary Pegasus Satellite Communications, Inc. (then named Pegasus
Communications Corporation) was exchanged for identical common and preferred
stock of the new holding company, which assumed the name Pegasus Communications
Corporation. In the reorganization, Pegasus Satellite Communications became a
direct subsidiary of the new holding company. The publicly held debt securities
of Pegasus Satellite Communications remained with it, and, as a result of an
exchange offer, the 12-3/4% Series A cumulative exchangeable preferred stock of
the new holding company was exchanged for Pegasus Satellite Communication's
12-3/4% Series A cumulative exchangeable preferred stock. Today, all of the
Company's public and bank debt is owned by Pegasus Satellite Communications or
its subsidiary Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. The Class A common stock of
Pegasus Communications trades on the Nasdaq National Market under the symbol
"PGTV."

                                       1

Holding Company

         Pegasus Communications is a holding company and conducts substantially
all of its operations through its subsidiaries.

         Pegasus Satellite Communications, through its direct and indirect
subsidiaries, distributes DIRECTV programming using the name "Pegasus Satellite
Television," and conducts most of our broadcast television business.

         Other subsidiaries of Pegasus Communications hold the FCC Ka-band
license granted to Pegasus in August 2001, the intellectual property rights
licensed from Personalized Media Communications L.L.C. in January 2000, and the
34 FCC guard band licenses acquired from the FCC through auctions held in
September 2000 and February 2001.

Corporate Mission

         Our mission is to provide digital services to consumers in rural and
underserved areas of the United States. We are the only major digital services
provider focused exclusively on serving America's rural and underserved areas.
In the future, we hope to expand the scope of services that we can offer to
consumers and the geographic area in which we supply satellite services,
especially through the development of our Ka-band license which will allow us
to operate our own satellite platform serving North America and, ultimately,
other global markets.

         We believe that our current experience in distributing DIRECTV
programming and in operating broadcast television systems and our historical
experience in operating cable television systems well positions us to utilize
our Ka-band license and build, launch and operate a next generation
direct-to-home services platform capable of delivering advanced digital
services, including retransmission of local broadcast stations by satellite,
advanced digital video services, and internet access. We believe that our dealer
and distribution network, marketing and customer relations infrastructure and
experience in obtaining and providing programming will assist us in
accomplishing our mission.

Satellite Services in Rural Areas

         Rural areas include approximately 85% of the total landmass of the
continental United States and have an average home density of approximately 11
homes per square mile. Because the cost of reaching a household by a cable or
other wireline distribution system is generally inversely proportional to home
density and the cost of providing satellite service is not, satellite services
have strong cost advantages over cable and other wireline distribution systems
in rural areas.

         There are approximately 90 million people, 34 million households and
three million businesses located in rural areas of the United States. Rural
areas therefore represent a large and attractive market for DBS and other
digital satellite services. Approximately 55% of all U.S. DBS subscribers reside
in rural areas. It is our belief that future digital satellite services, such as
digital audio services and satellite broadband multimedia services, will also
achieve disproportionate success in rural areas as compared to metropolitan
areas.

         It is difficult, however, for satellite and other service providers to
establish sales and distribution channels in rural areas. In contrast to
metropolitan areas, where there are many strong national retail chains, few
national retailers have a presence in rural areas. Most retailers in rural areas
are independently owned and have only one or two store locations. For these
reasons, satellite providers seeking to establish broad and effective rural
distribution have limited alternatives:

                                       2
<PAGE>

         o  They may seek to distribute their services through one of the few
            national retailers, such as Radio Shack or Wal-Mart, that have a
            strong retail presence in rural areas.

         o  They may seek to establish direct sales channels in rural areas.

         o  They may seek to distribute through national networks of independent
            retailers serving rural areas, such as have been established by
            EchoStar and by Pegasus Satellite.

Pegasus Rural Focus and Strategy


         DBS services have achieved a penetration of more than 32% in rural
areas of the United States, as compared to approximately 11% in metropolitan
areas. We believe that other digital satellite services will achieve
disproportionately greater consumer acceptance in rural and underserved areas
than in metropolitan areas.


         Our long term goal is to become an integrated provider of DBS and other
digital satellite services for rural areas of the United States. To accomplish
our goal, we are pursuing the following strategy:


         o  Continue to Grow Our Rural Subscriber Base by Aggressively Marketing
            DIRECTV and Obtaining Long Term, Higher Revenue Generating
            Subscribers, and to Reduce Our Subscriber Acquisition Costs.
            Although we still focus on expanding our subscriber base, our
            marketing efforts and sales approaches are increasingly geared to
            obtaining better quality subscribers: subscribers who are less
            likely to churn in the future and who are likely to be interested in
            more expansive and higher revenue generating programming packages.
            We also focus on reducing the costs we incur in obtaining new
            subscribers.

         o  Continue to Develop the Pegasus Retail Network and New Sales
            Channels. We have established the Pegasus network of independent
            retailers in order to distribute DIRECTV in our DIRECTV exclusive
            territories. Our consolidation of DIRECTV's rural affiliates has
            enabled us to expand the Pegasus retail network to over 3,000
            independent retailers in 41 states. We believe that the Pegasus
            retail network is one of the few sales and distribution channels for
            digital satellite services with broad and effective reach in rural
            areas of the U.S. We intend to further expand the Pegasus retail
            network in order to increase the penetration of DIRECTV in rural
            areas while making our retail network more effective and valuable to
            us by continuing to eliminate dealers associated with high churn
            subscribers, developing incentives that reward dealers for obtaining
            longer term, better revenue generating subscribers, and selectively
            limiting dealer participation in certain sales programs. We are also
            expanding our marketing of DIRECTV beyond our traditional retail
            network channels. For instance, we are increasing the size and
            utilization of our own inside sales force and have or intend to
            enter into affinity programs and arrangements like certificate
            programs where we can generate sales through sales-only arrangements
            in which retailers receive compensation for sales but will not be
            responsible for equipment delivery and installation.

         o  Generate Future Growth By Bundling Additional Digital Satellite
            Services with Our Distribution of DIRECTV Programming. New digital
            satellite services, such as digital audio services, broadband
            multimedia services and mobile satellite services, are or will be
            increasingly introduced to consumers and businesses in the next five
            years. We believe that these services, like DBS, should achieve
            disproportionate success in rural areas. However, because there are
            limited sales and distribution channels in rural areas, new digital


                                       3
<PAGE>

            satellite service providers will confront the same difficulties that
            DBS service providers have encountered in establishing broad
            distribution in rural areas, as compared to metropolitan areas. We
            believe that the Pegasus retail network and our other sales channels
            will enable us to establish relationships with digital satellite
            service providers that will position us to capitalize on these new
            opportunities. For more information on these new digital satellite
            services see -Other Digital Broadband Satellite Services.


         o  Develop Our Own Satellite Platform. In August 2001, we were awarded
            five Ka-band orbital locations by the FCC, including one at
            107(degree)W, which will permit service to the entire continental
            U.S. We are planning to launch two satellites at this location in
            order to offer the delivery of advanced digital video, audio, and
            multimedia services, local broadcast station retransmission, and
            Internet access to consumer and businesses.

Direct Broadcast Satellite Television

         There are currently two nationally branded DBS programming services:
DIRECTV, which is a service of DirecTV, Inc., a subsidiary of Hughes Electronic
Corporation, and The DISH Network, which is owned by EchoStar Communications
Corporation. Hughes and EchoStar have agreed to merge, which merger if
consummated would combine these services. Both DBS programming services are
digital satellite services and therefore require that a subscriber install a
satellite receiving antenna or dish and a digital receiver. DIRECTV and DISH
require a satellite dish of approximately 18 inches in diameter that may be
installed by the consumer without professional assistance. As of December 31,
2001, the market shares of DIRECTV and DISH among all DBS subscribers nationally
were approximately 61% and 39%, respectively.

DIRECTV

         DIRECTV offers in excess of 225 entertainment channels of near laser
disc quality video and compact disc quality audio programming. DIRECTV currently
transmits via six high power Ku band satellites. We believe that DIRECTV's
extensive line up of pay-per-view movies and events and sports packages,
including the exclusive "NFL Sunday Ticket," have enabled DIRECTV to capture a
majority market share of existing DBS subscribers and will continue to drive
strong subscriber growth for DIRECTV programming in the future. DIRECTV reported
1.2 million net subscriber additions in 2001.

DIRECTV Rural Affiliates


         Prior to the launch of DIRECTV's programming service, Hughes
Electronics, which was succeeded by its subsidiary DirecTV, Inc., entered into
an agreement with the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative authorizing
the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative to offer its members and
affiliates the opportunity to acquire exclusive rights to distribute DIRECTV
programming services in rural areas of the United States. The National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative is a cooperative organization whose members and
affiliates are engaged in the distribution of telecommunications and other
services in predominantly rural areas of the United States. Approximately 250
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative members and affiliates initially
acquired such exclusive rights, thereby becoming DIRECTV rural affiliates. The
DIRECTV exclusive territories acquired by DIRECTV's rural affiliates initially
included approximately 9.0 million rural households.


                                       4
<PAGE>


Consolidation of DIRECTV Rural Affiliates

         When DIRECTV was launched in 1994, Pegasus was the largest of the
original DIRECTV rural affiliates, with a DIRECTV exclusive territory of
approximately 500,000 homes in four New England states. In October 1996, Pegasus
Communications first acquired exclusive distribution rights from another DIRECTV
rural affiliate, thereby beginning a process of consolidation that has
significantly changed the composition of DIRECTV's rural affiliates. Since
October 1996, Pegasus Communications has acquired directly, and indirectly
through the April 1998 acquisition of Digital Television Services, Inc. and the
May 2000 acquisition of Golden Sky Holdings, Inc., exclusive distribution rights
from approximately 166 DIRECTV rural affiliates. Today, Pegasus represents
approximately 83% of the DIRECTV exclusive territories held by DIRECTV's rural
affiliates, includes approximately 7.5 million homes. There are less than 100
remaining rural affiliates with exclusive DIRECTV territories representing
approximately 1.5 million homes. In 2001, we acquired distribution rights from
one other DIRECTV rural affiliate. In connection with our ongoing litigation
with DirecTV, our ability to consummate acquisitions has been affected by
DirecTV's refusal to approve assignments of National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative member agreements for marketing and distribution of DBS services
without the imposition of conditions unacceptable to Pegasus.

Proposed Merger of EchoStar Communications Corporation into Hughes Electronics
Corporation

         On October 28, 2001, General Motors Corporation and its subsidiary
Hughes Electronics Corporation, together with EchoStar, announced that they had
signed definitive agreements that provide for the spin-off of Hughes Electronics
from General Motors and the merger of EchoStar into Hughes Electronics. The
companies have stated that the merged entity would use the EchoStar name and
adopt the DIRECTV brand name for its services and retail products. As reported,
at December 31, 2001 the merged entity would have had 15.8 million customers,
with another approximately 1.9 million customers being served by the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and its affiliates, including Pegasus. The
spin-off and merger are subject to a number of conditions, including
shareholders approval, regulatory clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino
Antitrust Act of 1976, and approval by the Federal Communications Commission.
The companies have stated that they expect the transaction to close in the
second half of 2002.

         We are still in the process of evaluating the impacts of the pending
merger on our business.

In addition to our core programming packages, in designated market areas where
local channels are available, subscribers may obtain local network programming
for $6.00 per month.

         Pay-per-view movies are generally $3.99 per movie. Movies recently
released for pay-per-view are available for viewing on multiple channels at
staggered starting times so that a viewer generally would not have to wait more
than 30 minutes to view a particular pay-per-view movie.

         Subscribers may also subscribe to various premium services: STARZ!,
HBO, Showtime, Cinemax and Sports Pack. Effective February 2002, premium
services became available to subscribers at prices based upon the number instead
of the type of premium service selected. Prior to this time, pricing was based
upon the particular premium selected. As a consequence, under the new pricing
methodology, the monthly fees for premium services are $12 for one premium, $22
for two premiums, $31 for three premiums, $39 for four premiums and $46 for five
premiums.

Sales and Marketing

         In order to be competitive and generate long term, higher revenue
generating subscribers, we are increasingly developing flexibility and variety
in our sales programs.

         We offer programs whereby subscribers can purchase equipment from
the Pegasus retail network or national retailers. As an alternative to
subscribers purchasing a DIRECTV system, under our Pegasus Digital One Plan,
subscribers are provided with equipment, consisting of one or more receivers,
obtain DIRECTV programming for a monthly programming fee, enter into an initial
12 month commitment secured by credit card, and enjoy the benefits of free
service repair. Under this plan, we have title to and own the receivers and
remote controls provided to subscribers. Subscribers who terminate service but
do not return equipment and access cards are assessed equipment and access card
non-return fees.

         Beginning February 1, 2002, we require all of our new subscribers to
make an initial 12 month programming commitment. Failure to comply with the 12
month commitment, including, in some instances, suspension, discontinuance or
downgrading service, can result in the imposition of cancellation fees intended
to reimburse Pegasus in part for its cost of special introductory promotional
offers, equipment and installation subsidies and dealer commissions.

         In connection with the sale of DIRECTV programming, we from time to
time offer special free or reduced price programming offers. We provide these
offers in connection with acquisition of new subscribers or to encourage
existing subscribers to try additional programming.

         We also give dealers incentives to sell program offers depending upon
the mix of sales offers that we hope to achieve. Dealer incentives include the
availability of installation and equipment subsidies, commissions and the
payment of flex payments, which can be changed from time to time in accordance
with certain business rules that we establish to reward particular dealer
behavior.

         Beginning in the second quarter of 2002, we will be instituting a
certificate program whereby purchasers can purchase certificates and be entitled
to receive certain equipment, including, in some cases equipment at no cost, and
programming fee credits based upon the subscriber's credit score at the time of
activation. This initiative is intended to minimize our financial exposure to
subscribers who are more likely to churn for financial reasons while at the same
time providing incentives to attract new subscribers who meet certain credit
scoring criteria.

                                       6
<PAGE>

         Many of the markets that we serve are not passed by cable or are passed
by older cable systems with limited numbers of channels. We actively market our
DIRECTV programming to potential subscribers in this market segment as their
primary source of television programming. It is our belief that this market
segment will continue to be a source for new Pegasus subscribers in the future.

The Pegasus Retail Network

         The Pegasus retail network is a network of over 3,000 independent
satellite, consumer electronics and other retailers serving rural areas. We
began the development of the Pegasus retail network in 1995 in order to
distribute DIRECTV in our original DIRECTV exclusive territories in New England.
We have expanded this network into 41 states as a result of our acquisitions of
DIRECTV rural affiliates since 1996. Today, the Pegasus retail network is one of
the few sales and distribution channels available to digital satellite service
providers seeking broad and effective distribution in rural areas throughout the
continental United States.

         We believe that the national reach of the Pegasus retail network has
positioned us to:

         o  improve the penetration of DIRECTV in the DIRECTV exclusive
            territories that we now own;

         o  assist DIRECTV in improving DIRECTV's DBS market share in rural
            areas outside of the DIRECTV exclusive territories held by the other
            DIRECTV rural affiliates; and

         o  offer providers of new digital satellite services, such as the
            digital audio and broadband multimedia satellite services, an
            effective and convenient means for reaching the approximately 30% of
            America's population that live and work in rural areas. For more
            information regarding Pegasus' new digital satellite services, see
            -Other Digital Broadband Satellite Services.

         We have developed and are continuing to develop programs to make our
retail network more effective and valuable to us by eliminating dealers
associated with high churn subscribers, establishing eligibility requirements
for the sale of certain sales programs, and providing dealer incentive
compensation programs that reward dealers for the sales of particular sales
programs and the acquisition of better Pegasus Satellite Television subscribers.

         In order to facilitate the acquisition of subscribers by our retail
network, Pegasus has entered into certain distribution arrangements with
national distributors whereby our dealers can obtain DIRECTV equipment systems
with, in some cases, certain equipment subsidies provided by Pegasus.

Other Digital Broadband Satellite Services

         Our research tends to show that there is a significant and growing
market for broadband access to the Internet among both consumers and businesses.
In metropolitan areas, we believe that satellite broadband services will compete
with cable modem and telephone company DSL broadband services. However, in many
rural and underserved areas, cable modem or DSL broadband access services are
not currently available and broadband Internet access will likely be available
only via satellite and terrestrial wireless broadband access for the foreseeable
future. Because of our previous success in introducing DBS services to rural and
underserved areas, we believe that we will be well situated to introduce
satellite based broadband Internet access to rural and underserved areas, though
we cannot assure you that we will be successful.

         In May 2001, Pegasus Communications introduced Pegasus Express, a new
high speed satellite broadband Internet access service to consumers. The first
Pegasus Express service launched was "Pegasus Express powered by DirecWay"
pursuant to a July 19, 2000 agreement with Hughes Network Systems, a unit of
Hughes Electronics Corporation, which also owns DirecTV. The service requires
users to install a two way satellite dish and USB connected satellite modem and
offers users 400 kilobits-per-second downstream Internet access speeds via
satellite, as opposed to a maximum of 56 kilobits-per-second currently available
through dial-up modems. Our ability to offer Pegasus Express powered by DirecWay
is not limited to the territories in which we offer DIRECTV. As of December 31,
2001, we had approximately 5,100 "Pegasus Express powered by DirecWay"
subscribers. Aside from offering "Pegasus Express powered by DirecWay," we
anticipate delivering Internet services through technology not based on DirecWay
and offering services to businesses.

Broadcast Television

         Pegasus owns or operates eleven TV stations affiliated with Fox, UPN,
or the WB located in the Jackson, Mississippi; Chattanooga, Tennessee;
Gainesville, Florida; Tallahassee, Florida; Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Pennsylvania;
Portland, Maine; and Mobile, Alabama/Pensacola, Florida markets. We have
purchased or launched TV stations affiliated with the "emerging networks" of
Fox, UPN and the WB, because, while affiliates of these networks generally have
lower revenue shares than stations affiliated with ABC, CBS and NBC, we believe
that they will experience growing audience ratings and accordingly afford us
greater opportunities for increasing their revenue share. In addition, we have
entered into "local marketing agreements" in markets where we already own a
station. These agreements, which allow us to program the broadcast hours of a
station we do not own and to sell the advertising for that time, provide
additional opportunities for increasing revenue share with limited additional
operating expenses. However, the FCC has adopted changes to its ownership rules
which in most instances would prohibit us from expanding in our existing markets
through local marketing agreements and may require us to modify or terminate our
existing agreements. We have entered into local marketing agreements to program
one station as an affiliate of Fox, two stations as affiliates of the WB network
and one station as an affiliate of UPN.

New Business Development Initiatives

         Ka-band License. On August 2, 2001, the FCC awarded Pegasus Development
Corporation a license to launch and operate Ka-band geostationary satellites at
five different orbital locations, 117(Degree)W, 107(Degree)W, 43(Degree)W,
28(Degree)E, and 107.5(Degree)E. Two of these orbital locations, 117(Degree)W
and 107(Degree)W, permit service to the entire continental U.S. The other three
are primarily for service outside of the United States and are capable of
providing services to Africa, Latin America, Europe and Asia. Geostationary
satellite systems are capable of providing two way, "always on," high speed or
broadband Internet access directly to residential and small office/home office
consumers as well as high quality video and audio services channels.

         Pegasus Development's license, like other FCC-issued licenses for
satellites capable of providing international service, is subject to successful
international technical coordination with other entities whose prospective
satellite operations might cause interference to, or suffer interference from,
Pegasus Development's proposed operations in the absence of technical
coordination. The FCC imposed the following milestones on Pegasus Development:

-------------------------- ------------------------ --------------------------- -------------------------------
</TABLE>

         We are planning for the launch of two satellites from the 107(Degree)W
location in order to offer the delivery of advanced digital video, audio, and
multimedia services, local broadcast station retransmission, and Internet access
to consumers and businesses.

         At this time, Pegasus has issued a request-for-proposal for two
satellites to be built on a schedule that complies with the license milestones.
In the second quarter of 2002, Pegasus may award and enter into contracts
relating to these satellites. Pegasus projects that the design, construction,
launch and related insurance costs associated with the first satellite could
exceed $250 million. The costs associated with the second satellite would likely
be less. Additional costs associated with the project will consist of
development of the ground segment, which will include the building of uplink
earth stations. It is projected that a complete deployment of the ground segment
may exceed $500 million, although we believe that launch of a competitive
service can be accomplished with an investment of less than $100 million. In
addition to space and ground segment costs, the actual operation of a satellite
service would require additional expense, principally after the commencement of
service. In order to reduce or defer expenses, we may initially authorize
construction of a single satellite and associated ground equipment. Pegasus
expects to finance the development of its 107(degree)W license through a
combination of vendor financing and debt and equity investments.


         Although the FCC order issuing the Ka-band licenses indicated that the
107(degree)W license must be in use by March 2003, it may be possible for
Pegasus Development to extend the March 2003 milestone until March 2005. To do
so, Pegasus must provide the FCC, before September 9, 2002, with information
demonstrating good cause to request an International Telecommunication Union
extension on the grounds specified in the International Telecommunication Union
Radio Regulations. Such grounds include launch failure, launch delays due to
circumstances outside the control of the operator, delays caused by
modifications of satellite design necessary to reach coordination agreements,
problems in meeting the satellite design specifications, delays in reaching
coordination after a request for ITU Radiocommunication Bureau assistance,
financial circumstances outside the control of the operator, and force majeure
events. There can be no assurance that the extension will be granted.

         Guard Band Licenses. We have not fully developed our plans for use of
the guard band licenses in our business at this time. For more information about
these licenses, see -Guard Band Licenses.

         Pending Multichannel Video Distribution and Data Service Application.
Pegasus Development is one of two applicants currently competing for FCC
licenses to a nationwide allocation of 500 MHz of spectrum to operate a
terrestrial radio system in the 12.2-12.7 GHz band, though there is a third
applicant seeking to provide service only in several Midwest states. There is a
proceeding pending at the FCC to establish technical service and licensing rules
for this service. In addition, there are petitions currently pending before the
FCC seeking reconsideration of the FCC's decision to authorize this service in
the 12.2-12.7 GHz spectrum. There may be additional future applicants for these


                                       9
<PAGE>

licenses, and the FCC may use an auction to select licensees. The FCC has
decided that the spectrum may be used for video programming and data services.
Pegasus Development filed the application for the purpose of providing these
services, including local television broadcast signals throughout the United
States. A full build-out of the radio system as specified in the application
will require construction of transmitting sites in over 2,000 markets throughout
the country. Because the proposed services would operate in the frequency band
authorized for use by DBS licensees, Pegasus Development has proposed to operate
on a secondary basis to protect direct broadcast licensees and their customers.

         DBS operators, such as DirecTV and EchoStar, and others have opposed
the allocation of spectrum for this service. Northpoint Technology, Ltd.,
another applicant for this service, and others have opposed the application of
Pegasus Development. Because the FCC has not yet adopted specific technical or
service rules or conducted a licensing proceeding, there can be no assurance
that the FCC will permit Pegasus Development to provide terrestrial service in
the 12.2-12.7 GHz band. There can be no assurance that the FCC will grant
Pegasus Development's application, and even if the FCC grants the application,
it may put restrictions on the licenses that could materially impair the use of
the licenses.

Competition

         Pegasus Communications' DBS business competes with a number of
different sources which provide news, information and entertainment programming
to consumers, including:

         o EchoStar;

         o internet companies;

         o local television broadcast stations that provide off air programming
           which can be received using a roof top antenna and television set;

         o satellite master antenna television systems, commonly known as SMATV,
           which generally serve condominiums, apartment and office complexes
           and residential developments;

         o cable television systems;

         o wireless program distribution services, commonly called wireless
           cable systems, which use low power microwave frequencies to transmit
           video programming over the air to subscribers;

         o other operators who build and operate communications systems in the
           same communities that Pegasus serves;

         o movie theaters; and

         o home video products.

Each of these may be able to offer more competitive packages or pricing than
Pegasus or DirecTV can provide. In addition, the DBS industry is still evolving
and recent or future competitive developments could adversely affect Pegasus'
direct satellite business.

         Our TV stations compete for audience share, programming and advertising
revenue with other television stations in their respective markets and with
cable operators and other advertising media. Cable operators in particular are
competing more aggressively than in the past for advertising revenues in our TV
stations' markets. This competition could adversely affect our stations'
revenues and performance in the future.

                                       10
<PAGE>

         In addition, the markets in which Pegasus operates are in a constant
state of change due to technological, economic and regulatory developments. We
are unable to predict what forms of competition will develop in the future, the
extent of such competition or its possible effects on its businesses. For more
potential risks related to competition, see--Risk Factors --Other Risks of Our
Business--We Face Significant Competition; the Competitive Landscape Changes
Constantly.

Employees

         As of December 31, 2001, we had 1,041 full time and 427 part time
employees. We are not a party to any collective bargaining agreements and we
consider our relations with our employees to be good.

Direct Broadcast Satellite Agreements

         Prior to the launch of the first DIRECTV satellite in 1993, Hughes
entered into various agreements intended to assist it in the introduction of
DIRECTV services, including agreements with RCA/Thomson for the development and
manufacture of DBS reception equipment and with United States Satellite
Broadcasting Company, Inc. for the sale of five transponders on the first
satellite. In an agreement concluded in 1994, Hughes offered members and
affiliates of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative the opportunity
to become the exclusive providers of certain DBS services using the DIRECTV
satellites at the 101(degree) W orbital location, generally including DIRECTV
programming, to specified residences and commercial subscribers in rural areas
of the U.S. The National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative is a cooperative
organization whose members and affiliates are engaged in the distribution of
telecommunications and other services in predominantly rural areas of the U.S.
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative members and affiliates that
participated in its DBS program acquired the rights to provide the DBS services
described above in their service areas. The service areas purchased by
participating National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative members and
affiliates comprise approximately nine million television households and were
initially acquired for aggregate commitment payments exceeding $100 million.

         We are an affiliate of the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative, participating through agreements in its DBS program. The agreement
between Hughes (and DirecTV as its successor) and the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative, and related agreements between the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and its participating members and
affiliates, provide those members and affiliates with substantial rights and
benefits from distribution in their service areas of the DBS services, including
the right to set pricing, to retain all subscription remittances and to appoint
sales agents. In exchange for such rights and benefits, the participating
members and affiliates made substantial commitment payments to DirectTV. In
addition, the participating members and affiliates are required to reimburse
DirecTV for their allocable shares of certain common expenses, such as
programming, satellite specific costs and expenses associated with the billing
and authorization systems, and to remit to DirecTV a 5% fee on subscription
revenues.

         DirecTV has disputed the extent of the rights held by the participating
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative members and affiliates. See--Legal
Proceedings--DirecTV Litigation. Those disputes include the rights asserted by
participating members and affiliates:

                                       11
<PAGE>

         o  to provide all services offered by DirecTV that are transmitted over
            27 frequencies that the FCC has authorized for DirecTV's use for a
            term running through the life of satellites at the 101(degree) W
            orbital location;

         o  to provide certain other services over the satellites; and

         o  to have the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative exercise a
            right of first refusal to acquire comparable rights in the event
            that DirecTV elects to launch successor satellites upon the removal
            of the satellites from their orbital location at the end of their
            lives.

         Even if Pegasus Communications and the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative prevail on their claims relating to right of
first refusal, the financial terms of the right of first refusal are likely to
be the subject of negotiation and Pegasus Communications is unable to predict
whether substantial additional expenditures by the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative will be required in connection with the exercise
of such right of first refusal.

         The agreements between the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative and participating National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative
members and affiliates terminate when the DIRECTV satellites are removed from
their orbital location at the end of their lives. Our agreements with the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative may also be terminated as follows:

         o  If the agreement between DirecTV and the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative is terminated because of a breach by
            DirecTV, the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative may
            terminate its agreements with us, but the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative will be responsible for paying to us
            our pro rata portion of any refunds that the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative receives from DirecTV.

         o  If we fail to make any payment due to the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative or otherwise breach a material
            obligation of our agreements with the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative, the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative may terminate our agreement with the
            National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative in addition to
            exercising other rights and remedies against us.

         o  If the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's agreement
            with DirecTV is terminated because of a breach by the National Rural
            Telecommunications Cooperative, DirecTV is obligated to continue to
            provide DIRECTV programming to Pegasus by assuming the National
            Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's rights and obligations under
            the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's agreement with
            DirecTV or under a new agreement containing substantially the same
            terms and conditions as the National Rural Telecommunications
            Cooperative's agreement with DirecTV.

         We are not permitted under our agreements with the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative to assign or transfer, directly or indirectly,
our rights under these agreements without the prior written consent of the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and DirecTV, which consents cannot
be unreasonably withheld.

         The National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative has adopted a policy
requiring any party acquiring DIRECTV distribution rights from a National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative member or affiliate to post a letter of credit to
secure payment of National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's billings when
acquisitions occur and when monthly payments to the National Rural


                                       12
<PAGE>

Telecommunications Cooperative exceeds a specified amount. Pursuant to this
policy, subsidiaries of Pegasus Communications have posted at December 31, 2001
letters of credit of approximately $59.0 million. Although this requirement can
be expected to reduce borrowing capacity available to us under our revolving
credit facility, we expect this reduction to be manageable. There can be no
assurance, however, that the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative will
not in the future seek to institute other policies, or to change this policy, in
ways that would be material to us.

         On August 9, 2000, two of our subsidiaries, Pegasus Satellite
Television, Inc. and Golden Sky Systems, Inc. entered into agreements with
DirecTV to provide seamless marketing and sales for DIRECTV retailers and
distributors and to provide seamless customer service to all of our existing and
prospective customers pursuant to a seamless marketing program agreement and a
seamless consumer program agreement, respectively. Under the terms of the
seamless marketing program agreement, the parties agreed to reimburse each other
the costs incurred in the activation of new customers in their respective
territories and dealers receive compensation regardless of where a customer
activates service. The seamless marketing agreement has become the subject of
litigation between us and DirecTV and we exercised our rights to terminate the
agreement on July 13, 2001. For more information concerning the on-going
litigation pertaining to the seamless marketing agreement, see ITEM 3: Legal
Proceedings--DirecTV Litigation--Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky
Systems.

         The seamless consumer program agreement allows us to provide customers
more expansive service selection during activation and a simplified and
consolidated billing process. In particular, we have the right to provide our
customers with video services currently distributed by DirecTV from certain
frequencies, including the right to provide the premium services HBO, Showtime,
Cinemax and The Movie Channel, which are the subject of litigation between
DirecTV and Pegasus Satellite, as well as sports programming and local TV
stations. Under the seamless consumer program agreement, we retain 10% to 20% of
the revenues associated with these additional programming services. The
agreement is terminable by DirecTV on 90 days notice.

Guard Band Licenses

         In September 2000, as part of an auction process, the FCC announced
that Pegasus Guard Band was the high bidder for 31 guard band licenses in
consideration of a payment of $91.6 million. On December 21, 2000, the FCC
granted Pegasus Guard Band the licenses for these frequencies. In a February
2001 reauction of certain guard band licenses that were not granted in the
original September 2000 auction, Pegasus Guard Band was the higher bidder on
three additional licenses for aggregate consideration of $3.8 million. On June
6, 2001, the FCC granted Pegasus Guard Band the licenses for these three
additional frequencies.

         The guard band licenses are located in the 700 MHz frequency band
between the portion of the 700 MHz spectrum reserved for public safety
operations and the portion allocated for commercial wireless services. The FCC's
rules limit the power levels, height of facilities, types of systems and the
uses that may be employed for these guard bands in order to reduce the
possibility of harmful interference to either the public safety operations or
commercial wireless services. Formerly, the 700 MHz frequency band was reserved
for use by UHF television channels 60 through 69 until the FCC reallocated 36
MHz of this spectrum for commercial use and 24 MHz for public safety use at the
direction of Congress. Currently, incumbent television broadcasters operate in
portions of the spectrum and are permitted by statute to continue operations
until their markets are converted from analog to digital television. This
conversion is an ongoing effort that may not be fully completed until at least
December 31, 2006.

                                       13
<PAGE>

         Of the 34 guard band licenses, 32 are designated as "A" licenses, which
means that each license is 2 MHz consisting of a pair of 1 MHz guard band
frequencies. These licenses include major economic areas such as Boston,
Chicago, Detroit, New York City, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland, San
Francisco/Oakland and Seattle. Two of the licenses are "B" licenses of 4 MHz,
consisting of a pair of 2 MHz guard band frequencies, in each of the major
economic areas in the country. The term of Pegasus Guard Band's licenses runs
through January 1, 2015, unless Pegasus Guard Band uses the licenses to provide
new broadcast type operations beginning on or before January 1, 2006, in which
case it will be required to renew the license eight years after the beginning of
these new broadcast type operations.

         As manager of the guard band licenses, Pegasus Guard Band must lease at
least 50.1% of the licensed spectrum in a geographic area to unaffiliated
parties on a for profit basis. Pegasus Guard Band may not lease more than 49.9%
of the licensed spectrum in any geographic area to its own affiliates. Pegasus
Guard Band may subdivide its spectrum in any manner it chooses and make it
available to system operators or directly to end users for fixed or mobile
communications, consistent with the frequency coordination and interface rules
specified for the bands.

         Under applicable performance requirements, by January 1, 2015, Pegasus
Guard Band must provide substantial service to the service areas covered by its
guard band licenses. The FCC's rules provide for a presumption of substantial
service if the licensee either leases a predominant amount of the licensed
spectrum in at least 50% of the geographic area covered by the license or
provides coverage to at least 50% of the service area's population. We cannot
assure you that we will be able to provide substantial service according to the
FCC's requirements. Pegasus Guard Band must also monitor all compliance and
interference protection standards for its guard band licenses. These
requirements include complying with, and ensuring that licensees comply with,
limits on out of band emission levels, providing mandatory advanced notification
of technical parameters to nearby guard band users and public safety frequency
coordinators and cooperating with officials and other guard band managers to
resolve problems.

         We have not fully developed our plans for use of the guard band
licenses in our business at this time.

Legislation and Regulation

         In February 1996, Congress passed the Telecommunications Act, which
substantially amended the Communications Act. This legislation has altered and
will continue to alter federal, state and local laws and regulations affecting
the communications industry, including Pegasus Communications and certain of the
services provided by Pegasus Communications.

         On November 29, 1999, Congress enacted the Satellite Home Viewer
Improvement Act of 1999 ("SHVIA"), which amended the Satellite Home Viewer Act.
This Act, for the first time, permits DBS operators to transmit local television
signals into local markets. In other important statutory amendments of
significance to satellite carriers and television broadcasters, the law
generally seeks to place satellite operators on an equal footing with cable
television operators in regards to the availability of television broadcast
programming.

         Unlike a cable operator or a common carrier (such as a telephone
company), DBS operators such as DirecTV are free to set prices and serve
customers according to their business judgment, without rate of return or other
regulation or the obligation not to discriminate among customers. However, there
are laws and regulations that affect DirecTV and, therefore, affect Pegasus
Satellite. As an operator of a privately owned U.S. satellite system, DirecTV is
subject to the regulatory jurisdiction of the FCC, primarily with respect to:

                                       14
<PAGE>

         o  the licensing of individual satellites (i.e., the requirement that
            DirecTV meet minimum financial, legal and technical standards);

         o  avoidance of interference with radio stations; and

         o  compliance with rules that the FCC has established specifically for
            DBS licenses, including rules that the FCC is in the process of
            adopting to govern the retransmission of television broadcast
            stations by DBS operators.

         As a distributor of television programming, DirecTV is also affected by
numerous other laws and regulations. The Telecommunications Act clarifies that
the FCC has exclusive jurisdiction over direct-to-home satellite services and
that criminal penalties may be imposed for piracy of direct-to-home satellite
services. The Telecommunications Act also offers direct-to-home operators relief
from private and local government imposed restrictions on the placement of
receiving antennae. In some instances, direct-to-home operators have been unable
to serve areas due to laws, zoning ordinances, homeowner association rules or
restrictive property covenants banning the installation of antennae on or near
homes. The FCC has promulgated rules designed to implement Congress' intent by
prohibiting any restriction, including zoning, land use or building regulation,
or any private covenant, homeowners' association rule, or similar restriction on
property within the exclusive use or control of the antenna user where the user
has a direct or indirect ownership interest in the property, to the extent it
impairs the installation, maintenance or use of a DBS receiving antenna that is
one meter or less in diameter or diagonal measurement, except where such
restriction is necessary to accomplish a clearly defined safety objective or to
preserve a recognized historic district. Local governments and associations may
apply to the FCC for a waiver of this rule based on local concerns of a highly
specialized or unusual nature. The FCC also issued a further order giving
renters the right to install antennas in areas of their rental property in which
they have exclusive use, e.g. balconies or patios. The Telecommunications Act
also preempted local (but not state) governments from imposing taxes or fees on
direct-to-home services, including DBS.

         In addition to regulating pricing practices and competition within the
franchise cable television industry, the Communications Act is intended to
establish and support existing and new multi-channel video services, such as
wireless cable and direct-to-home, and to provide subscription television
services. DirecTV and Pegasus Communications have benefited from the programming
access provisions of the Communications Act and implementing rules in that
DirecTV has been able to gain access to previously unavailable programming
services and, in some circumstances, has obtained certain programming services
at reduced cost. Any amendment to, or interpretation of, the Communications Act
or the FCC's rules that would permit cable companies or entities affiliated with
cable companies to discriminate against competitors such as DirecTV in making
programming available (or to discriminate in the terms and conditions of such
programming) could adversely affect DirecTV's ability to acquire programming on
a cost effective basis, which would have an adverse impact on Pegasus
Communications. The prohibition on exclusive programming contracts between cable
affiliated programmers and cable operators will expire in October 2002 unless
the FCC extends such restrictions.

         The FCC has adopted rules imposing public interest requirements for
providing video programming on direct-to-home licensees, including, at a
minimum, reasonable and non-discriminatory access by qualified federal
candidates for office at the lowest unit rates and the obligation to set aside
four percent of the licensee's channel capacity for non-commercial programming
of an educational or informational nature. Within this set aside requirement,
direct-to-home providers must make capacity available to "national educational
programming suppliers" at rates not exceeding 50% of the direct-to-home
provider's direct costs of making the capacity available to the programmer.

                                       15
<PAGE>
         SHVIA amends the Copyright Act and the Communications Act in order to
clarify the terms and conditions under which a DBS operator may retransmit local
and distant broadcast television stations to subscribers. The new law was
intended to promote the ability of satellite services to compete with cable
television systems and to resolve disputes that had arisen between broadcasters
and satellite carriers regarding the delivery of broadcast television station
programming to satellite service subscribers. As a result of SHVIA, Pegasus'
television stations are generally entitled to seek carriage on any DBS
operator's system providing local-into-local service in their respective
markets.

         SHVIA creates a new statutory copyright license applicable to the
retransmission of broadcast television stations to DBS subscribers located in
their markets. Although there is no royalty payment obligation associated with
this new license, eligibility for the license is conditioned on the satellite
carrier's compliance with the applicable Communications Act provisions and FCC
rules governing the retransmission of such "local" broadcast television stations
to satellite service subscribers. Noncompliance with the Communications Act
and/or FCC requirements could subject a satellite carrier to liability for
copyright infringement.

         The amendments to the Communications Act contained in SHVIA provide
that, until May 29, 2000, a DBS operator was permitted to retransmit a broadcast
television station to satellite subscribers in the station's local market
without the station's consent. Beginning May 29, 2000 and continuing until
December 31, 2001, satellite carriers were able to carry local television
stations on a station by station basis if a retransmission consent agreement has
been reached. As of January 1, 2002, a satellite carrier that relies on the
statutory copyright license to retransmit a broadcast station to subscribers in
the station's local market is required to retransmit any other broadcast station
in that market that has elected to assert its right to mandatory carriage and
has so notified the satellite carrier. Broadcast stations in markets where a
satellite carrier is retransmitting a local signal were required to make their
election by July 1, 2001; carriers receiving such notice have 30 days to
respond. The initial election remains in effect until December 31, 2005;
thereafter, broadcasters will make new elections every three years. In December
2001, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit rendered a decision
upholding the carry one, carry all provisions of SHVIA; however, that decision
has been appealed to the Supreme Court.

         Other provisions contained in SHVIA address the retransmission by a
satellite service provider of a broadcast television station to subscribers who
reside outside the local market of the station being retransmitted. A DBS
provider may retransmit such "distant" broadcast stations affiliated with the
national broadcast television networks to those subscribers meeting certain
specified eligibility criteria which the FCC is directed to implement. The
primary determinant of a subscriber's eligibility to receive a distant affiliate
of a particular network is whether the subscriber is able to receive a "Grade B"
strength signal from an affiliate of that network using a conventional rooftop
broadcast television antenna. As required by SHVIA, the FCC also has adopted
rules subjecting the satellite retransmission of certain distant stations to
program "blackout" rules. These rules are similar to rules currently applicable
to the retransmission of distant broadcast television stations by cable systems.
The FCC has commenced a proceeding to consider the application of these rules to
the carriage of digital signals.

         SHVIA also makes a number of revisions to the statutory copyright
license provisions applicable to the retransmission of distant broadcast
television stations to satellite service subscribers. These changes include
reducing the monthly per subscriber royalty rate payable under the distant
signal compulsory copyright license and creating a new compulsory copyright
license applicable to the retransmission of a national PBS programming feed. The
compulsory copyright license applicable to the retransmission of distant
broadcast signals to satellite service subscribers will expire on January 1,
2005, unless it is extended by Congress. If the license expires, DBS operators
will be required to negotiate in the marketplace to obtain the copyright
clearances necessary for the retransmission of distant broadcast signals to
satellite service subscribers.

         The final outcome of ongoing and future FCC rulemakings, and of any
litigation pertaining thereto, cannot yet be determined. Any regulatory changes
could adversely affect Pegasus Communications' operations. Must carry
requirements could cause the displacement of possibly more attractive
programming.

         The foregoing does not purport to describe all present and proposed
federal regulations and legislation relating to the DBS industry.

Risk Factors

         We Have a History of Substantial Losses; We Expect Them to Continue;
         Losses Could Adversely Affect Our Access to Capital Markets

         We have never made a profit, except in 1995, when we had a $10.2
million extraordinary gain. In 2001, 2000 and 1999, we incurred losses from
continuing operations of $276.6 million, $213.7 million and $184.2 million,
respectively. We do not expect to have net income for the foreseeable future
because of interest expense on our debt and because of amortization associated
with intangible assets. Our interest and amortization expenses were $136.3
million and $245.4 million, respectively, for 2001, $122.1 million and $187.1
million, respectively, for 2000 and $64.9 million and $84.2 million,
respectively, for 1999.

         We Have a Substantial Amount of Indebtedness; Our Indebtedness Could
         Adversely Affect Our Business, Operating Results and Financial
         Condition

         We have a significant amount of indebtedness. Our indebtedness could
have important consequences for you. For example, it could:

         o  increase our vulnerability to generally adverse economic and
            industry conditions;
         o  require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash to pay
            indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of cash for working
            capital, capital expenditures, acquisitions and other activities;
         o  limit our flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in
            our business and the industries in which we operate; and
         o  place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors
            that have less debt.

         The following shows certain important information about us.

         We and Our Subsidiaries May Still Be Able to Incur Substantially More
         Debt Which Could Exacerbate the Risks Described Above

         We and our subsidiaries may be able to incur substantial additional
indebtedness. If new debt is added to our current debt levels, the risks
described above that we now face could intensify. At December 31, 2001, the
revolving credit facility of Pegasus Media & Communications would permit
additional borrowings of up to $59.1 million.

         We May Not Be Able to Generate Enough Cash to Service Our Debt

         Our ability to make payments on and to refinance our indebtedness and
to fund planned capital expenditures and other activities will depend on our
ability to generate cash in the future. This, to a certain extent, is subject to
general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other
facts, including the other risks described below, that are beyond our control.
Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient
cash flow to service our debt. Net cash used by our operating activities was
$131.4 million, $58.6 million and $84.3 million for 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively.

         At December 31, 2001, our total long term debt was $1.3 billion, of
which $8.7 million was due within 12 months. As of December 31, 2001, we believe
available cash on hand and availability under our credit facilities will be
adequate to meet our future liquidity needs for at least the next 12 months. See
ITEM 7: Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations--Liquidity and Capital Resources.

         We cannot assure you that:

         o  our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations; or
         o  future borrowings will be available to us in amounts sufficient to
            pay our indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs.

         We May Lose Customers if Satellite and Direct Broadcast Satellite
         Technology Fails or is Impaired

         If any of the DIRECTV satellites are damaged or stop working partially
or completely, DirecTV may not be able to continue to provide its customers with
programming services. We would in turn likely lose customers, which could
materially and adversely affect our operations, financial performance and our
ability to pay our debt obligations or pay dividends on our preferred stock.

         DBS technology is highly complex and is still evolving. As with any
high technology product or system, it may not function as expected. For example,
the satellites at the 101(degree) W orbital location may not last for their
expected lives. In July 1998, DirecTV reported that the primary spacecraft
control processor failed on one of their satellites, DBS-1. As it was designed
to do, the satellite automatically switched to its on-board spare processor with
no interruption of service to DIRECTV subscribers. A more substantial failure of
the DIRECTV DBS system could occur in the future.

         Events at DirecTV Could Adversely Affect Us

         Although we are engaged in other digital broadband satellite services
and broadcast television services, our primary source of revenue is derived from
our distribution of DirecTV's DBS programming. For the years ended December 31,
2001, 2000 and 1999, approximately 96%, 94% and 89%, respectively, of our total
revenue resulted from our distribution of DIRECTV or activities substantially
related to this distribution.

                                       18
<PAGE>

         Because we are an intermediary for DirecTV, events we do not control at
DirecTV could adversely affect us. One of the most important of these is
DirecTV's ability to provide programming that appeals to mass audiences. DirecTV
generally does not produce its own programming; it purchases programming from
third parties. DirecTV's success - and accordingly ours - depends in large part
on its ability to select popular programming sources and acquire access to this
programming on favorable terms. We have no control or influence over this. If
DirecTV is unable to retain access to its current programming, we cannot assure
you that DirecTV would be able to obtain substitute programming, or that such
substitute programming would be comparable in quality or cost to its existing
programming. If DirecTV is unable to continue to provide desirable programming,
we would be placed at a competitive disadvantage and may lose customers and
revenues.

         Because DirecTV is a subsidiary of Hughes Electronics Corporation,
which in turn is a subsidiary of General Motors Corporation, events at General
Motors and Hughes Electronics may impact DirecTV and could adversely affect us.
On October 28, 2001, General Motors and Hughes Electronics together with
EchoStar Communications Corporation announced that they had signed definitive
agreements that provide for the spin-off of Hughes Electronics from General
Motors and the merger of EchoStar into Hughes Electronics. The spin-off and
merger are subject to a number of conditions, including shareholder approval,
regulatory clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Act of 1976, and
approval by the Federal Communications Commission. The companies have stated
that they expect the transaction to close in the second half of 2002. We are
evaluating the effects of this transaction upon our business, but are unable to
predict the full scope and nature of the effect of the transaction at this time.

         For further information regarding events at DirecTV, see -Proposed
Merger Between EchoStar Communications Corporation and Hughes Electronic
Corporation.

         Programming Costs May Increase, Which Could Adversely Affect Our Direct
         Broadcast Satellite Business

         Program suppliers could increase the rates they charge DirecTV for
programming, increasing our costs. Increases in programming costs could cause us
to increase the rates we charge customers and, as a result, we could lose
customers.

         FCC regulations require programming suppliers affiliated with cable
companies to provide programming to all multi-channel distributors - including
DirecTV - on nondiscriminatory terms. Some of the rules implementing this law
are scheduled to expire on October 5, 2002. If these rules are not extended,
DirecTV could lose its access to programming, including prime-time programming.
If a significant amount of programming becomes unavailable, we may lose
customers and our revenues and financial performance could be adversely
affected.

         Our Ability to Provide DIRECTV Products May Be Limited by the Outcome
         of Litigation with DirecTV

         Our ability to offer DIRECTV may be affected by the outcome of
litigation between DirecTV and the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative
and between DirecTV and us. DirecTV has filed counterclaims in this litigation
in which it is contesting the term of our and the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative's agreements. DirecTV is contending that the term
of its agreement with the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's agreement with us is measured
only by the orbital life of DBS-1, the first DIRECTV satellite launched, while


                                       19
<PAGE>

it is our position that the term is measured by the orbital lives of other
DIRECTV satellites at the 101(Degree)W orbital location. In addition, in its
counterclaim, DirecTV is also contesting the scope and term of a right of first
refusal provided to the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative in its
agreement with DirecTV, and whether we have any right of first refusal in our
agreements with the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative.

         If DirecTV were to succeed in its counterclaims, the initial term of
the agreements could be significantly shorter than we believe is provided for in
the agreements. Exactly how much shorter is not possible to predict because it
depends on the orbital lives of the respective satellites. In addition, we may
not have a right of first refusal to distribute DIRECTV services after this
initial term.

         Based upon the outcome of this litigation, we may or may not be able to
continue offering DIRECTV products after the initial term of our agreement with
the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative. As a result, the outcome of
this litigation could have a material adverse effect on our DBS business.
Furthermore, if we can continue to offer DIRECTV products after the initial term
of our agreement with the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative, we
cannot predict what it will cost us to do so.

         The outcome of this litigation may also be impacted by the pending
merger of EchoStar into Hughes Electronics. For further information regarding
this pending transaction, see - Proposed Merger of EchoStar Communications
Corporation into Hughes Electronics Corporation.

         The Effect of Federal Satellite Television Legislation on Our Business
         Is Unclear

         On November 29, 1999, The Satellite Home Viewer Improvement Act of 1999
("SHVIA") became law. SHVIA addresses many of the issues between the broadcast
television networks and the DBS industry regarding retransmission of network
programming to DBS subscribers. Generally, SHVIA permits the DBS industry to
retransmit the signal of a broadcast television station to subscribers in the
station's local market, subject to certain conditions. To that end, SHVIA grants
DBS providers a compulsory copyright license to retransmit a local television
station's signal back into the station's local market. In return for this
compulsory license, if a DBS provider retransmits the signal of one local
station it must also retransmit every other local television station in the
market that requests carriage. This requirement is often referred to as "carry
one, carry all." In addition, SHVIA also extends, through December 31, 2004, the
industry's statutory copyright license to retransmit distant broadcast
television programming and establishes the royalty rate applicable to such
retransmissions. In the case of the retransmission of distant network
programming, SHVIA preserves and clarifies the limitation that such
retransmissions be made only to subscribers in "unserved" areas. SHVIA also
directs the FCC to adopt regulations implementing various conditions and
requirements applicable to the retransmission of broadcast television signals by
a satellite carrier.

         Several entities, including DirecTV and EchoStar, have challenged the
"carry one, carry all" aspect of SHVIA. Proceedings relating to this legislation
currently are pending at the FCC and in the federal courts, arguing that the
must carry provisions of SHVIA rules are unconstitutional. In December 2001, the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit rendered a decision upholding the
carry-one, carry-all provisions of the rules; however, this decision has been
appealed to the Supreme Court. The effect on our business of these FCC actions
and other studies and rulemakings that the FCC will undertake cannot be
predicted at this time.


                                       20
<PAGE>
         We Could Lose Money Because of Signal Theft

         If signal theft becomes widespread, our revenues would suffer. Signal
theft has long been a problem in the cable and DBS industries, and, while
DirecTV uses encryption technology in an attempt to prevent people from
receiving programming without paying for it, the technology is not foolproof and
even as the technology has changed, it may be compromised.

         We Could Lose Revenues if We Have Out of Territory Subscribers

         While we have exclusive rights to distribute DIRECTV products in our
territories, our agreements with the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative, and its agreement with DirecTV, do not allow us to have customers
outside our territories. If it turns out that large numbers of our subscribers
are not in our territories, we would lose substantial revenues when we
disconnect them, we could owe DirecTV revenue we previously collected from them,
and it might be grounds for DirecTV to terminate our distribution rights. We
could also face legal consequences for having subscribers in Canada, where
DIRECTV reception is illegal.

         Direct Broadcast Satellite Services Face Competition from Cable
         Operators

         One of the competitive advantages of DBS systems is their ability to
provide customers with more channels and a better quality digital signal than
traditional analog cable television systems. Many cable television operators
have made significant investments to upgrade their systems from analog to
digital, significantly increasing the number and variety of channels and the
quality of the transmission they can provide to their customers. As a result of
these upgrades, cable television operators have begun to compete on a more
extensive basis with DBS providers. Nationwide, DBS served approximately 17.6
million households in 2001, compared to approximately 13.7 million households
served by digital cable television operators. We anticipate that near term
projections for DBS subscriptions will remain ahead of those projections for
cable television operators, however, we cannot be certain that DBS services will
continue to surpass digital cable services in the long term. Cable television
operators have a large, established customer base, and many cable operators have
significant investments in, and access to, programming. If competition from
cable television operators should increase in the future, we could experience a
decrease in our number of subscribers or increased difficulty in landing new
subscriptions.

         Direct Broadcast Satellite Equipment Shortages Could Adversely Affect
         Our Direct Broadcast Business

         There have been periodic shortages of DBS equipment and there may be
shortages in the future. During such shortages, we may be unable to accept new
subscribers and, as a result, potential revenue could be lost. If we are unable
to obtain DBS equipment, or if we cannot obtain such equipment on favorable
terms, our subscriber base and revenues could be adversely affected.

         The Outcome of Proceedings to Implement Industry Regulations and to
         Approve and Maintain FCC Licenses Could Adversely Affect Our Business

         The DBS industry is subject to regulation by the FCC and, to a certain
extent, by international, state and local authorities. The Federal
Communications Act of 1934 ("Communications Act") established the FCC and gave
the agency the broad authority to regulate the use of the radio spectrum. Based
on the Communications Act, as amended, the FCC has general authority to
promulgate rules and regulations in order to ensure that the spectrum is used in
an efficient manner, consistent with the public interest, convenience and
necessity. In addition, in response to technological, economic, social and
political changes in the past seventy years, Congress has continued to shape the
Commission's role in spectrum management by amending the Communications Act
through numerous subsequent statutes. In addition, FCC proceedings to implement
the Communications Act are ongoing, and we cannot predict the outcomes of these
proceedings or their effect on our business. DirecTV depends on FCC licenses to
operate its digital broadcast satellite service. If the FCC cancels, revokes,
suspends, or fails to renew any of these licenses it could have a harmful effect
on us.

         We Face Significant Competition; the Competitive Landscape Changes
         Constantly

         Our DBS business faces competition from other multi-channel programming
distributors, including other DBS operators, direct-to-home distributors, cable
operators, wireless cable operators, Internet and local and long distance
telephone companies, which may be able to offer more competitive programming
packages or pricing than we or DirecTV can provide. We believe competition may
increase as cable operators continue to upgrade their systems to offer digital
signals and high speed internet access to customers. For more information
related to competition from cable operators, see - Risk Factors - Risks of Our
Direct Broadcast Satellite Business - Direct Broadcast Satellite Services Face
Competition from Cable Operators above. In addition, the DBS industry and the
multi-channel programming distribution industry are in a constant state of
technological, economic and regulatory change and we are unable to predict what
forms of competition will develop in the future, the extent of such competition
or its possible effects on our businesses.

         Competition may also be affected by consolidation among communications
providers. In particular, we are unable to predict the effect on us of the
pending merger of EchoStar into Hughes Electronics. For further information
regarding this pending transaction, see - Proposed Merger of EchoStar
Communications Corporation into Hughes Electronics Corporation.

         We may not be able to make Strategic Acquisitions; Acquisitions Could
         Disrupt Our Business and Affect Our Results of Operations

         We cannot assure you that we will continue to be able to identify
suitable acquisitions or investment opportunities. Even if we do, we may not be
able to make acquisitions or investments on commercially acceptable terms, if at
all.

         If we acquire a company, we may have difficulty assimilating its
businesses, products, services, technologies and personnel into our operations.
These difficulties could disrupt our ongoing business, distract our management
and workforce, increase our expenses and adversely affect our results of
operations. In addition, we may incur additional debt or be required to issue
equity securities to pay for future acquisitions or investments. If we finance
an acquisition by borrowing, we would increase our already high leverage and
interest expense, and if we issue securities in connection with future
acquisitions, the issuance could be dilutive to our stockholders.

         We May Incur Significant Costs in Pursuing New Business Initiatives
         Which May Not Be Successful

         The telecommunications industry is characterized by rapid technological
change. In our industry, we face evolving industry and regulatory standards,
changing market conditions and frequent new product and service introductions
and enhancements. The introduction of products using new technologies or the
adoption of new regulatory standards can make existing products or products
under development obsolete or unmarketable. In order to grow and remain
competitive, we will need to adapt to these rapidly changing technologies,
enhance our existing products, and introduce new products to address our
customers' changing demands.


                                       22
<PAGE>

         A number of factors could prevent or inhibit us from providing these
products, including technological issues, our ability to obtain favorable FCC
approval and our ability to obtain the financing necessary to complete the
development of these products. In addition, these new products must meet the
requirements of our current and prospective customers and must achieve
significant market acceptability. If we fail to anticipate or respond on a cost
effective and timely basis to technological developments, changes in industry
and regulatory standards or custom requirements, or if we have any significant
delays in product development or introduction, our business, operating results
and financial condition could be affected in a material adverse way.

         New product development often requires long term forecasting of market
trends, development and implementation of new technologies and processes and a
substantial capital commitment. On August 2, 2001, the FCC awarded us a license
to launch and operate Ka-band geostationary satellites at five different orbital
locations. We are planning for the launch of two satellites in order to offer
the delivery of advanced digital video, audio and multimedia services, local
broadcast station retransmission and internet access to consumers and
businesses. Our license requires that we enter into a non-contingent contract
for construction on our first satellite by August 2002, and the remaining
satellites by August 2003. In addition, we must launch and operate our first
satellite by March 2003 and launch and operate the remaining satellites by July
2005. We may seek to extend the launch and operational milestones for the first
satellite, but there is no guarantee that any extension will be granted. Our
license also requires that we coordinate our use of the slots and spectrum with
other existing or potential licensees of other ITU signatory administrations.
Such coordination is required to ensure that harmful interference is not caused
to other satellite systems. There can be no assurance that our proposed
operations can be coordinated successfully. Failure to conclude such
coordination at one or more of our licensed slots could have a material adverse
impact on our business plan. At December 31, 2001, we have expended
approximately $2.3 million in the development of these Ka-band geostationary
satellites, including seeking licenses from the FCC and planning for the design,
construction or procurement and launch of the satellites. We cannot assure you
that all of our expenditures will result in the successful construction or
procurement and launch of these satellites or the successful development,
marketing and sale of products associated with the operation of these
satellites.

         Recent Terrorist Activities and Resulting Military and Other Actions
         Could Adversely Affect Our Business

         Terrorist attacks in New York and Washington, D.C. in September 2001
disrupted commerce throughout the United States and Europe. The continued threat
of terrorism within the United States and Europe or new acts of terrorism may
cause significant disruption to commerce throughout the world. To the extent
that such disruptions result in (1) delays or cancellations of customer orders,
(2) a general decrease in consumer spending on satellite broadcast and
information technology, (3) our inability to effectively market and distribute
our products, or (4) our inability to access capital markets, our business and
results of operations could be materially and adversely affected. We are unable
to predict whether the threat of terrorism or the responses thereto will result
in any long term commercial disruptions or if such activities or responses will
have any long term material adverse effect on our business, results of
operations or financial condition.

ITEM 2: PROPERTIES

         We own our corporate headquarters in Bala Cynwyd, Pennsylvania.

         Our DBS operations are headquartered in leased space in Marlborough,
Massachusetts, and we operate call centers out of this space and other leased
space in Louisville, Kentucky and Lenexa, Kansas. These leases expire on various
dates through 2007. Our Marlborough, Massachusetts facility provides for an
option to purchase the building for approximately $10.7 million. We have
exercised this option to purchase and are currently completing certain due
diligence and negotiating an agreement of sale relating to the purchase of this
property. In connection with our broadcast TV operations, we own or lease
various transmitting equipment and towers, television stations and office space.

ITEM 3: LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

DirecTV Litigation

         National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative

         On June 3, 1999, the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative
filed a lawsuit in federal court against DirecTV seeking a court order to
enforce the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's contractual rights
to obtain from DirecTV certain premium programming formerly distributed by
United States Satellite Broadcasting Company, Inc. for exclusive distribution by
the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's members and affiliates in
their rural markets. The National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative also
sought a temporary restraining order preventing DirecTV from marketing the
premium programming in such markets and requiring DirecTV to provide the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative with the premium programming for
exclusive distribution in those areas. The court, in an order dated June 17,
1999, denied the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative a preliminary
injunction on such matters, without deciding the underlying claims.

         On July 22, 1999, DirecTV responded to the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative's continuing lawsuit by rejecting the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's claims to exclusive distribution rights
and by filing a counterclaim seeking judicial clarification of certain
provisions of DirecTV's contract with the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative. As part of the counterclaim, DirecTV is seeking a declaratory
judgment that the term of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's
agreement with DirecTV is measured only by the orbital life of DBS-1, the first
DIRECTV satellite launched, and not by the orbital lives of other DIRECTV
satellites at the 101(degree)W orbital location. According to DirecTV, DBS-1
suffered a failure of its primary control processor in July 1998 and since that
time has been operating normally using a spare control processor. While the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative has a right of first refusal to
receive certain services from any successor DIRECTV satellite, the scope and
terms of this right of first refusal are also being disputed in the litigation,
as discussed below. This right is not expressly provided for in our agreements
with the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative.

         If DirecTV were to prevail on its counterclaim, any failure of DBS-1
could have a material adverse effect on our DIRECTV rights, see ITEM 1:
BUSINESS--Risk Factors--Risks of Our Direct Broadcast Satellite Business--Our
Ability to Provide DIRECTV Products May Be Limited by the Outcome of Litigation
with DirecTV.

         On September 9, 1999, the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative
filed a response to DirecTV's counterclaim contesting DirecTV's interpretations
of the end of term and right of first refusal provisions. On December 29, 1999,
DirecTV filed a motion for partial summary judgment. The motion sought a court
order that the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's right of first
refusal, effective at the termination of DirecTV's contract with the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative, does not include programming services and
is limited to 20 program channels of transponder capacity. On January 31, 2001,
the court issued an order denying DirecTV's motion in its entirety for partial
summary judgment relating to the right of first refusal.

                                       24
<PAGE>
         On August 26, 1999, the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative
filed a separate lawsuit in federal court against DirecTV claiming that DirecTV
had failed to provide to the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative its
share of launch fees and other benefits that DirecTV and its affiliates have
received relating to programming and other services. On November 15, 1999, the
court granted a motion by DirecTV and dismissed the portion of this lawsuit
asserting tort claims, but left in place the remaining claims asserted by the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative.

         Both of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative's lawsuits
against DirecTV have been consolidated for discovery and pre-trial purposes. A
trial date of December 2, 2002 has been set, although at this stage it is not
clear which of the lawsuits will be tried on that date.

         The National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and DirecTV have also
filed indemnity claims against one another which pertain to the alleged
obligation, if any, of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative to
indemnify DirecTV for costs incurred in various lawsuits described herein. These
claims have been severed from the other claims in the case and will be tried
separately. Each side has filed a summary judgement motion relating to the
claims.

         Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems

         On January 10, 2000, our subsidiary, Pegasus Satellite Television, Inc.
and Golden Sky Systems, Inc., another affiliate of the NRTC which we acquired in
May 2000 to become one of our subsidiaries, filed a class action lawsuit in
federal court in Los Angeles against DirecTV as representatives of a proposed
class that would include all members and affiliates of the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative that are distributors of DIRECTV. The complaint
contained causes of action for various torts, common counts and declaratory
relief based on DirecTV's failure to provide the National Rural
Telecommunications Cooperative with certain premium programming, and on
DirecTV's position with respect to launch fees and other benefits, term and
right of first refusal. The complaint sought monetary damages and a court order
regarding the rights of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative and
its members and affiliates.

         On February 10, 2000, Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky
Systems filed an amended complaint which added new tort claims against DirecTV
for interference with their relationships with manufacturers, distributors and
dealers of DBS equipment. The class action allegations they previously filed
were withdrawn to allow a new class action to be filed on behalf of the members
and affiliates of the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative. The new
class action was filed on February 9, 2000.

         On December 10, 2000, the court rejected in its entirety DirecTV's
motion to dismiss certain of the claims asserted by Pegasus Satellite
Television, Golden Sky Systems and the putative class. On January 31, 2001, the
court denied in its entirety a motion for summary judgment filed by DirecTV
relating to the right of first refusal. The court also certified the plaintiff's
class on December 28, 2000.

         On March 9, 2001, DirecTV filed a counterclaim against Pegasus
Satellite Television, Golden Sky Systems and the class members. In the
counterclaim, DirecTV seeks two claims for relief: (i) a declaratory judgement
that Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems have no right of first
refusal in their agreements with the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative to have DirecTV provide any services after the expiration of the
term of these agreements, and (ii) an order that DBS-1 is the satellite (and the
only satellite) that measures the term of their agreements with the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative. Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden
Sky Systems' motion to dismiss the counterclaims was denied on May 8, 2001, and
on June 4, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television, Golden Sky Systems and the class
filed a response denying DirecTV's counterclaims. On July 2, 2001, DirecTV filed
under seal a summary judgment motion on its term claim, but the Court denied the
motion on October 31, 2001.

                                       25
<PAGE>
         On May 21, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television, Golden Sky Systems and
the class members moved to amend their complaints to add certain additional
claims against DirecTV relating to, among other things, DirecTV's provision of
advanced services. The court granted our motion on June 19, 2001. DirecTV filed
its answer to our second amended complaint on July 20, 2001.

         On June 22, 2001, DirecTV brought suit against Pegasus Satellite
Television and Golden Sky Systems in Los Angeles County Superior Court for
breach of contract and common counts. The lawsuit pertains to the seamless
marketing agreement dated August 9, 2000, as amended, between DirecTV, on the
one hand, and Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems, on the other
hand. On July 13, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems
terminated the seamless marketing agreement. On July 16, 2001, Pegasus Satellite
Television and Golden Sky Systems filed a cross-complaint against DirecTV
alleging, among other things, that (i) DirecTV has breached the seamless
marketing agreement, and (ii) DirecTV has engaged in unlawful and/or unfair
business practices, as defined in Section 17200, et seq. of the California
Business and Professions Code. On July 19, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television
and Golden Sky Systems removed the case from state to federal court. DirecTV
moved to remand the case back to state court but, on September 19, 2001, the
court denied DirecTV's motion. For more information regarding Pegasus'
agreements with DirecTV, see ITEM 1: Business--Direct Broadcast Satellite
Agreements.

         All five lawsuits discussed above, including both lawsuits brought by
the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative, the class action and Pegasus
Satellite Television and Golden Sky System's lawsuit, are pending before the
same judge. The court has set a trial date of December 2, 2002, although, as
noted above, it is not clear whether all the lawsuits will be tried together.
For potential risks we face as a result of the outcome of this litigation, see
ITEM 1: Business--Risk Factors--Risks of Our Direct Broadcast Satellite
Business--Our Ability to Provide DIRECTV Products May Be Limited by the Outcome

Patent Infringement Lawsuits

         Pegasus Development Corporation. On December 4, 2000, Pegasus
Development Corporation, a subsidiary of Pegasus Communications, and
Personalized Media Communications, L.L.C., filed a patent infringement lawsuit
in the United States District Court of Delaware against DirecTV, Hughes
Electronics Corporation, Thomson Consumer Electronics and Philips Electronics
North America Corporation. Pegasus Development and Personalized Media are
seeking injunctive relief and monetary damages for the defendants' alleged
patent infringement and unauthorized manufacture, use, sale, offer to sell and
importation of products, services and systems that fall within the scope of
Personalized Media's portfolio of patented media and communications
technologies, of which Pegasus Development is an exclusive licensee within a
field of use.

         The technologies covered by Pegasus Development's exclusive license
include services distributed to consumers using certain Ku band BSS frequencies
and Ka-band frequencies, including frequencies licensed to affiliates of Hughes
and used by DirecTV to provide services to its subscribers. Pegasus Development
is unable to predict the possible effects of this litigation on Pegasus'
relationship with DirecTV.

         Each of the defendants has filed answers to the patent infringement
lawsuit denying all claims made by Personalized Media and Pegasus Development.
In addition, each of the defendants other than Phillips Electronics, has
requested a declaratory judgment seeking to have the patents Pegasus Development
licensed from Personalized Media declared not infringed, invalid and
unenforceable. Phillips Electronics has requested a declaratory judgment to have
the patents declared not infringed and invalid. DirecTV has also filed a
counterclaim against Pegasus Development alleging unfair competition under the
Federal Lanham Act. In a separate counterclaim, DirecTV has alleged that both
Pegasus Development's and Personalized Media's patent infringement lawsuit
constitutes "abuse of process."

         Recent Patent Infringement Litigation. In December 2001, one of our
subsidiaries was served with a complaint in a patent infringement lawsuit (along
with DirecTV, Hughes Electronics, EchoStar Communications and others) by
Broadcast Innovations, L.L.C. The nature of the plaintiff's claims is not clear
from the complaint. We are in the process of evaluating the matter in order to
determine whether it is material to our business.

Other Matters

         In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time we are
involved with claims that arise in the normal course of our business. In our
opinion, the ultimate liability with respect to these claims will not have a
material adverse effect on our consolidated operations, cash flows or financial
position.

ITEM 4: SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS

         No matters were submitted to a vote of our stockholders during the
fourth quarter of 2001.

Dividend Policy

         Common Stock: Pegasus Communications has not paid any cash dividends on
its common stock within the two most recent fiscal years. Payments of cash
dividends on the common stock cannot be made until all accrued dividends on
Pegasus Communications' preferred stock have been paid. Pegasus Communications'
ability to obtain cash from its subsidiaries with which to pay cash dividends is
also limited by the subsidiaries' publicly held debt securities and bank
agreements. Pegasus Communications does not anticipate paying cash dividends on
its common stock in the foreseeable future. The policy of Pegasus Communications
is to retain cash for operations and expansion.

         Preferred Stock: Pegasus currently has three series of preferred stock
outstanding: Series C, Series D, and Series E. As part of our February 22, 2001
corporate reorganization, our 12-3/4% Series A cumulative exchangeable preferred
stock was exchanged for Pegasus Satellite Communication's 12-3/4% Series A
cumulative exchangeable preferred stock and so our Series A preferred stock is
no longer outstanding. See ITEM 1: Business--Corporate Reorganization. The
Series B junior convertible participating preferred stock has been fully
redeemed and Pegasus Communications is no longer obligated to pay dividends on
this preferred stock. Pegasus Communications is permitted to pay dividends on
its Series C convertible preferred stock and Series D and Series E junior
convertible participating preferred stock by issuing shares of its Class A
common stock instead of paying cash.

Calculation of Aggregate Market Value of Nonaffiliate Shares

         For the purposes of calculating the aggregate market value of the
shares of Class A common stock held by nonaffiliates as shown on the cover page
of this Report, it has been assumed that all the outstanding shares were held by
nonaffiliates except for the shares held by directors, including Marshall W.
Pagon, Pegasus' Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. However, this should not
be deemed to constitute an admission that all directors of Pegasus are, in fact,
affiliates of Pegasus, or that there are not other persons who may be deemed to
be affiliates of Pegasus. Further information concerning shareholdings of
officers, directors and principal stockholders is included in ITEM 12: Security
Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.

Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities

         On November 6, 2001, Pegasus issued 1,157,815 shares of its Class A
common stock to an institutional investor in exchange for 349,700 shares of
Pegasus' Series C convertible preferred stock. The shares of common stock were
issued without registration in reliance on section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act
of 1933.

         On December 6, 2001, Pegasus issued an aggregate of 1,046,053 shares of
its Class A common stock to the sole holder of its Series D junior convertible
participating preferred stock in exchange for 10,000 shares of Pegasus' Series D
preferred stock and accrued dividends. The shares of common stock were issued
without registration in reliance on section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of
1933.

         All other sales for the period covered by this Report have been
previously reported by Pegasus on its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the
quarters ended March 31, 2001, June 30, 2001 and September 30, 2001.

         No cash dividends were declared on common stock in any year presented
in the table.

         Comparability between years has been affected due to the number of
acquisitions we have made in each of the years presented. Our acquisitions of
Digital Television Services in April 1998 and Golden Sky Holdings in May 2000
were individually significant transactions that materially affected amounts in
the year of and subsequent to each acquisition. The total consideration for
Digital Television Services and Golden Sky Holdings was $336.5 million and $1.2
billion, respectively. In addition to these acquisitions, we completed 26
acquisitions in 1998, 15 in 1999, and 19 in 2000. Total consideration for these
other acquisitions was $132.1 million, $79.5 million, and $232.6 million,
respectively.

         DBS premarketing cash flow is calculated by taking the revenues of the
direct broadcast satellite business and deducting programming expense (excluding
promotional programming), other subscriber related expenses, and general and
administrative expenses. DBS EBITDA is DBS premarketing cash flow less
promotional programming, promotions and incentives, and advertising and selling
expenses. We present the DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA because the
direct broadcast satellite business is our only significant segment and this
business forms the principal portion of our results of operations and cash
flows. DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA are not, and should not be
considered, alternatives to income from operations, net income, net cash
provided by operating activities, or any other measure for determining our
operating performance or liquidity, as determined under generally accepted
accounting principles. DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA also do not
necessarily indicate whether our cash flow will be sufficient to fund working
capital, capital expenditures or to react to changes in our industry or the
economy generally. We believe that DBS


                                       30
<PAGE>

premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA are important because people who follow
our industry frequently use these as measures of financial performance and
ability to pay debt service, and they are measures that we, our lenders, and
investors use to monitor our financial performance and debt leverage. Although
EBITDA is a common measure used by other companies, our calculation of EBITDA
may not be comparable with that of others.

ITEM 7:  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
         RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

         The following discussion of our financial condition and results of
operations should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial
statements and related notes which are included on pages F-1 through F-34
herein.

General

         We underwent a corporate reorganization in the first quarter of 2001
that is discussed in Note 1 of the notes to consolidated financial statements
and in an introductory paragraph to PART I. We are the successor entity to
Pegasus Satellite Communications, which had been previously named Pegasus
Communications Corporation, and as such, we succeed to the financial information
filed by Pegasus Satellite Communications for the year ended December 31, 2000.

         We have a history of losses, with net losses of $278.4 million, $159.0
million, and $188.3 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Our losses
have been principally due to the substantial amounts we incurred for subscriber
acquisition costs, interest expense, and noncash depreciation and amortization.
We expect that these amounts will continue to be substantial. As a result, we do
not expect to have net income for the foreseeable future.

         A substantial portion of our business is derived from providing
multichannel direct broadcast satellite services as an independent provider of
DIRECTV audio and video programming in exclusive territories primarily within
rural areas of 41 states. DIRECTV is a service of DirecTV, Inc. For 2001, 2000,
and 1999, revenues from our direct broadcast satellite business were 96%, 94%,
and 89%, respectively, of total consolidated revenues in each respective year,
and operating expenses for this business were 90%, 92%, and 89%, respectively,
of total consolidated operating expenses in each respective year. Total assets
of the direct broadcast satellite business were 85% and 86% of total
consolidated assets for 2001 and 2000, respectively. Because we are a
distributor of DIRECTV, we may be adversely affected by any material adverse
changes in the assets, financial condition, programming, technological
capabilities, or services of DirecTV. See Item 1: Business-Risk Factors.
Separately, we are in litigation against DirecTV (see Note 18 of the notes to
consolidated financial statements). Additionally, Hughes Electronics
Corporation, which is the parent company of DirecTV, has agreed to merge with
EchoStar Communications Corporation, which owns the only other nationally
branded direct broadcast satellite programming service in the United States. At
this time, we are unable to predict the effect of our litigation with DirecTV or
the merger of EchoStar Communications and Hughes Electronics, should it occur,
on our financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and future
operations.

         In May 2000, we acquired Golden Sky Holdings in a transaction accounted
for as a purchase. Golden Sky Holdings through its subsidiaries holds the rights
to provide DIRECTV programming in various rural areas of 24 states. During 2000,
we completed 19 other acquisitions of independent providers of DIRECTV. These
acquisitions principally consisted of the rights to provide DIRECTV programming
in various rural areas of the United States.

Overview of the Direct Broadcast Satellite Sales and Distribution Channel

         This overview focuses on our direct broadcast satellite business, as
this is our only significant business segment. We believe this will assist with
understanding our results of operations, liquidity, and capital resources.

         Our primary means to obtain subscribers is through an independent
retail network channel. To a lesser extent, we also obtain subscribers through
our inside sales channel. In both channels, we create and launch the promotions
for our DIRECTV programming, equipment, and installations. In addition, we
specify the retail prices for our programming and establish the suggested retail
prices at which dealers sell or provide and install equipment. We also obtain
subscribers to our DIRECTV programming through national retail chains selling
DIRECTV under arrangements directly with DirecTV.

         Our independent retail network consists of dealer and distributor
relationships. Distributors purchase directly from manufacturers and maintain in
their inventory the equipment needed by subscribers to access our DIRECTV
programming. Distributors sell this equipment to dealers who in turn provide the
equipment to subscribers. Distributors directly charge the dealers for the
equipment they sell to them. Dealers enroll subscribers to our DIRECTV
programming, provide them with equipment, and arrange for installation of the
equipment. Dealers directly charge new subscribers for equipment, installation,
and set up at the point of enrollment. We also directly enroll subscribers,
provide equipment to them, and arrange for installation of the equipment through
our inside sales channel. In this channel, we charge new subscribers at the
point of enrollment for equipment, installation, and set up. Once subscribers
have been enrolled under either channel, they contact us directly to activate
programming.

         We offer a variety of incentives to our subscribers and to our
distributors and dealers. Incentives to subscribers consist of free or
discounted prices for our DIRECTV programming, equipment needed to access our
DIRECTV programming, and installation of equipment that accesses our DIRECTV
programming. We pay incentives directly to dealers and distributors in the form
of equipment subsidies, installation subsidies, and commissions.

         We incur subscriber acquisition costs when we add new subscribers for
our DIRECTV programming. These costs consist of the portion of programming costs
associated with promotional programming provided to subscribers; equipment costs
and related subsidies paid to distributors; installation costs and related
subsidies paid to dealers; dealer commissions; advertising and marketing costs;
and selling costs. Promotional programming costs, which are included in
programming expense on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, are
charged to expense when incurred. Equipment costs and related subsidies and
installation costs and related subsidies, which are included in promotions and
incentives on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, are charged
to expense when the equipment is delivered and the installation occurs,
respectively. Dealer commissions, advertising and marketing costs, and selling
costs, which are included in advertising and selling on the statements of
operations and comprehensive loss, are charged to expense when incurred.

         Certain subscriber acquisition costs are capitalized or deferred. Under
certain of our subscription plans for DIRECTV programming, we retain or take
title to equipment delivered to subscribers. The equipment costs and subsidies
related to this equipment are capitalized as fixed assets and depreciated. We
also have subscription plans for DIRECTV programming that contain commitment
periods and early termination fees for subscribers. Direct and incremental
subscriber acquisition costs associated with these plans are deferred in the
aggregate not to exceed the amounts of applicable termination fees, which are
less than the contractual revenue over the commitment period. These costs are
amortized over the period of the arrangement for which early termination fees
apply and are charged to amortization expense. Direct and incremental subscriber
acquisition costs consist of equipment costs and related subsidies not
capitalized as fixed assets, installation costs and related subsidies, and
dealer commissions. Direct and incremental subscriber acquisition costs in
excess of termination fee amounts are expensed immediately and charged to
promotion and incentives or advertising and selling, as applicable, in the
statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

         Principal revenue of our direct broadcast satellite business is earned
by providing DIRECTV programming on a subscription or on demand basis. Standard
subscriptions are recognized as revenue monthly at the amount earned by us and
billed based on the level of programming content subscribed to during the month.


                                       32
<PAGE>

Promotional programming provided to subscribers at discounted prices is
recognized as revenue monthly at the promotional amount earned and billed.
Revenue for on demand viewing is recognized at the amount billed in the month
when the programming is viewed and earned. Fees that we charge new subscribers
for set up upon initiation of service are deferred as unearned revenue and are
recognized as revenue over our expected subscriber life of five years. Equipment
used by our subscribers is an integral component of our service. Accordingly,
amounts we charge for equipment sold and installations are deferred as unearned
revenue and are recognized as revenue over our expected subscriber life. We do
not recognize revenue for equipment, installations, and promotional programming
provided free of charge.

         We believe that the accounting policies concerning subscriber
acquisition costs and revenues discussed above are critical to our DBS business
and our results of operations. Another accounting policy we consider to be
critical to our DBS business is the way we account for patronage from the
National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative ("NRTC") of which we are an
affiliate. The NRTC bills its members and affiliates the costs incurred by the
NRTC under its agreement with DirecTV, certain other costs incurred by the NRTC
relating to associated direct broadcast satellite projects, and margin on the
costs of providing direct broadcast satellite services pursuant to the NRTC
member agreement for marketing and distribution of direct broadcast satellite
services. The most notable service that the NRTC provides to us is programming
related to the DIRECTV programming we provide. We record as expenses the amounts
we pay to the NRTC. Members and affiliates that participate in the NRTC's
projects may be eligible to receive an allocation of the NRTC's net savings
(generally, amounts collected from NRTC members and affiliates in excess of the
NRTC's costs) in the form of a patronage distribution. Generally, each patron
who does business with the NRTC receives an annual distribution. The amount of
the distribution is based on the ratio of business a patron conducts with the
NRTC during a given fiscal year of the NRTC times the NRTC's net savings
available for patronage distribution for that year. Throughout each year, we
accrue a receivable from the NRTC based on our best estimate of our share of the
patronage distribution for that year, with an offsetting reduction to the
expenses that we recorded for the payments we made to the NRTC during the year.
The offsetting reduction can be significant relative to the expense category
recorded to. We adjust our accrual of the estimated patronage distribution in
the year that the distribution is received and, accordingly, adjust the related
expenses in and for the year the distribution is received. Based on past
experience, we expect that a majority of the patronage distribution for 2001 to
be made in 2002 will be tendered by the NRTC in the form of patronage capital
certificates that represent equity interests in the NRTC. Also, we make
significant estimates relating to the useful lives and recoverability of our
long lived assets. At December 31, 2001, the net combined unamortized balance of
our property and equipment and intangibles was $1.9 billion, of which $1.6
billion was for our direct broadcast satellite rights assets. In assessing the
recoverability of our intangible assets, we must make assumptions regarding
estimated future cash flows and other factors to determine the fair value of the
respective assets. If these estimates or their related assumptions change in the
future, we may be required to record impairment charges for these assets.
Adustments to the useful lives of or impairment of the carrying amount of our
direct broadcast satellite rights assets could be significant to the results of
our operations. Refer to "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" in the
notes to consolidated financial statements elsewhere herein for a description of
other accounting policies applicable to all of our businesses.

Results of Operations

Comparison of 2001 to 2000

         In this section, amounts and changes specified are for the year ended
December 31, 2001 compared to the year ended December 31, 2000, unless indicated
otherwise

         Direct Broadcast Satellite Business

         Revenues
         --------

         Revenues increased $256.1 million to $838.2 million. This increase was
due to an increase in the number of subscribers and to a lesser extent higher
average revenue per subscriber. The current year includes 12 months of the
revenues of Golden Sky Holdings that we acquired in May 2000 as well as 12
months of the revenues of the 19 other entities that we acquired in 2000. The
number of subscribers at December 31, 2001 was 1,519,000 compared to 1,403,000
at December 31, 2000, and the average number of subscribers during 2001 and 2000
was 1.5 million and 1.1 million, respectively. This increase was substantially
due to internal growth. At December 31, 2001, we had exclusive DIRECTV
distribution rights to approximately 7.5 million households. Our sales and
marketing efforts have increased our penetration within our territories to
approximately 20.2% at December 31, 2001 from 18.9% at December 31, 2000.
Average monthly revenue per subscriber was $47.86 and $44.80 for 2001 and 2000,
respectively. The increase in 2001 was primarily due to the impact from the
seamless consumer agreement in effect for 12 months in 2001 versus only three
months in 2000 and the rate increase for our core packages effected in the
fourth quarter 2001, partially offset by unfavorable buy rate trends in our pay
per view and a la carte revenue categories and the unfavorable migration of
subscribers to lower retail priced core packages. The seamless consumer
agreement with DirecTV became effective in the fourth quarter 2000. This
agreement gives us the right to provide our subscribers with additional DIRECTV
audio and video programming distributed by DirecTV from certain frequencies and
to retain a portion of the revenues associated with this programming. We believe
that the unfavorable buy rate and migration trends were reflective of our
subscribers' attempts to reduce demands on their disposable incomes in response
to the effects on them of the general economic slow down within the United
States. We have revenue enhancement initiatives underway to reverse or mitigate
the decrease in pay per view and a la carte viewing and the shift to lower price
programming packages. These enhancements include: (1) enrolling more subscribers
to plans with minimum commitment periods, (2) subscriber evaluation techniques
to better direct subscribers to suitable promotions and plans, and (3)
refinement and expansion of our offers and promotions to consumers. We cannot
make any assurances about the success of these initiatives.

                                       33
<PAGE>

         The number of subscribers we obtained through internal growth decreased
in 2001 from 2000 in part due to the success we had in 2000 in converting former
subscribers of the Primestar direct broadcast satellite system. Also, in 2001,
competition from digital cable providers and a competing direct broadcast
satellite provider in the territories we serve and the economic slow down
decelerated our growth. We anticipate that we will continue to face competition
from these other providers in 2002. Also in 2002, we anticipate that we will
experience a significant reduction in the number of new subscribers we obtain
from DirecTV's national retail chains. The reduction in the number of
subscribers from national retail chains under arrangements directly with DirecTV
will be the result of efforts by DirecTV, already implemented in 2002, to
minimize certain subscriber acquisition costs that they have paid to national
retail chains for their enrollment of subscribers who reside in our exclusive
territories. Our efforts to increase our new subscribers in 2002 and beyond,
will include: (1) the diversification of our sales and distribution channels,
(2) the alignment of channel economics more closely to expected quality and
longevity of subscribers, (3) the establishment of direct relationships with
large national retail chains that we do not presently have in our distribution
channel, and (4) the refinement and expansion of our offers and promotions to
consumers. Because of the number of households available to us within our
territories that are not yet our subscribers, we believe that the prospects for
continued subscriber growth are present.

         We have recently undertaken a review of the method by which we publicly
report the number of our subscribers. Our publicly reported subscriber counts in
the past have included a number of accounts whose service has been suspended for
prolonged periods of time. Because we believe it would improve our public
reporting and internal analyses, we are changing our method of reporting
subscribers, beginning with the first quarter of 2002 so as to exclude these
accounts. We estimate that if we had instituted this change at December 31,
2001, we would have reported approximately 1.4 million subscribers. This change
would have had no effect on our 2001 consolidated financial statements if we had
implemented it during 2001, and will have no effect on our future consolidated
financial statements.

         In years prior to 2001, we had experienced large increases in our
number of subscribers as a result of the numerous acquisitions we made in those
years. In 2001, we acquired only one DIRECTV provider, which was not
significant. We cannot make any assurances that internal growth or growth
through acquisitions will occur and when or as to the rate of that growth.

         Operating Expenses
         ------------------

         Programming expenses increased $109.5 million to $362.2 million
primarily due to the incremental expenses incurred in providing service to an
increased subscriber base in place throughout 2001 compared to 2000. Our average
number of subscribers increased in 2001 by 34.8%. Additionally, 2001 had the
full effect of a 5-6% programming rate increase on our core programming packages
implemented by the National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative in mid 2000.

         Other subscriber related expenses increased $69.6 million to $205.1
million. Other subscriber related expenses include infrastructure costs billed
to us by the NRTC, expenses associated with call centers, bad debt expense,
franchise fees, and other costs that vary with changes in the number of
subscribers. The increase is principally due to the incremental expenses
incurred in serving the increased subscriber base in place throughout 2001
compared to 2000. Our average number of subscribers increased in 2001 by 34.8%.
Increased costs to service subscriber equipment maintenance and increased bad
debt expense as a result of higher non-pay churn experience, also contributed to
the increase. We also opened a new call center facility in 2001 that added
additional personnel related and customer care costs.



                                       34
<PAGE>

         Promotions and incentives expensed increased $6.4 million to $38.1
million. Total promotions and incentives expensed and deferred or capitalized
were $74.4 million and $43.9 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively. Total
promotions and incentives incurred per new subscriber added in 2001 increased by
approximately 80.0% from that in 2000. The increases were due to a combination
of: (1) more subscribers enrolling in 2001 than in 2000 under subscription plans
that had greater subsidies for our independent retail network associated with
them than with our other subscription plans, (2) the longer amount of time in
2001 than in 2000 that our seamless marketing agreement with DirecTV was in
effect, and (3) a shift in 2001 towards compensation plans under which we
provided more subsidies and less commissions to our dealers. Under the seamless
marketing agreement, we reimbursed DirecTV for, among other items, subsidies
they incurred under their arrangements with national retail chains related to
our subscribers they enrolled in our exclusive territories. We entered into this
agreement in August 2000, and terminated it in July 2001. Promotions and
incentives deferred or capitalized were $36.3 million and $12.2 million in 2001
and 2000, respectively. The increase in the amount deferred or capitalized was
primarily due to a combination of: (1) an increase in 2001 in the number of
subscribers enrolling in plans under which we were able to capitalize equipment
provided to subscribers and (2) subscription plans in place in 2001 that were
not in place in 2000 under which we were able to defer direct and incremental
subscriber acquisition costs associated with the plans. The increase in the
number of subscribers enrolling in plans under which we could capitalize
equipment was due to the greater availability of such plans in 2001 than in 2000
and the amount of time that such plans were in place in 2001 than in 2000.

         Advertising and selling expenses decreased $28.0 million to $104.7
million. Total advertising and selling costs expensed and deferred were $108.6
million and $132.7 million in 2001 and 2000, respectively. Total advertising and
selling costs incurred per new subscriber added in 2001 decreased by 14.8% from
that in 2000. The decreases were due to a combination of: (1) a lesser amount of
new subscribers added through our independent retail network in 2001 than in
2000 resulting in less commission costs and (2) a shift in 2001 towards
compensation plans under which we paid more subsidies and less commissions to
our dealers. Advertising and selling costs deferred in 2001 were $3.9 million.
No advertising and selling costs were deferred in 2000. Subscription plans under
which we were able to defer direct and incremental subscriber acquisition costs
associated with the plans were in place in 2001 and not in 2000.

         General and administrative expenses increased $11.5 million to $36.1
million primarily due to the incremental internal support costs we incurred in
providing service to our increased subscriber base. We had a larger average
number of employees in 2001 than in 2000 with resultant higher employee related
expenses. Also, in 2001 we opened up a new operations office for our direct
broadcast subscriber business that expanded our capabilities for that business
with a resultant increase in related internal support costs.


                                       35


<PAGE>

         Subscriber acquisition costs expensed decreased $24.9 million to $145.1
million. Per new subscriber added, these expenses were $360 and $404 for 2001
and 2000, respectively. The decreases were principally due to the deferral and
capitalization of costs of $40.2 million in 2001 compared to $12.2 million in
2000. The increase in the amount deferred or capitalized was primarily due to a
combination of: (1) an increase in 2001 in the number of subscribers enrolling
in plans under which we were able to capitalize equipment provided to
subscribers and (2) subscription plans in place in 2001 that were not in place
in 2000 under which we were able to defer direct and incremental subscriber
acquisition costs associated with the plans. The increase in the number of
subscribers enrolling in plans under which we could capitalize equipment was due
to the greater availability of such plans in 2001 than in 2000 and the amount of
time that such plans were in place in 2001 than in 2000.

         Total subscriber acquisition costs expensed and capitalized or
deferred were $185.3 million and $182.2 million for 2001 and 2000,
respectively, or $459 and $433 per new subscriber added for 2001 and 2000,
respectively. The increases were due to a combination of: (1) more subscribers
enrolling in 2001 than in 2000 under subscription plans that provided greater
commissions and subsidies to our independent retail network associated with them
than with our other subscription plans and (2) the longer amount of time in 2001
than in 2000 that our seamless marketing agreement with DirecTV was in effect.

         Depreciation and amortization increased $72.1 million to $257.5 million
principally due to the amortization of direct broadcast satellite rights assets
we recorded in acquisitions we made in 2000. Approximately $33.0 million of the
increase was associated with amortization of the direct broadcast satellite
rights assets recorded in our acquisition of Golden Sky Holdings of $1.0
billion.

         Revenues and Operating Expenses of Other Businesses

         Net revenues of our other businesses were $34.3 million in 2001 and
$35.4 million in 2000. Net operating expenses of our other businesses were $56.2
million in 2001 and $37.1 million in 2000. In 2001, our other businesses
consisted of broadcast and broadband, which was a new business we launched. The
principal service of the broadband business is Internet access through its
Pegasus Express product. Other businesses for 2000 consisted solely of
broadcast. As we expected, the broadband business incurred an operating loss for
2001, which amounted to $15.7 million. This was the result of start up costs to
establish the business infrastructure, and marketing, selling, and customer care
network, as well as equipment subsidies to make the Pegasus Express equipment
more affordable and attractive to buyers and other subscriber acquisition costs
incurred for this new service. We have scaled back our scope for this business
as we focus on our direct broadcast satellite business. As a result, we expect
that the broadband business will not be a significant part of our business for
the foreseeable future. The broadcast business incurred operating losses of $6.2
million and $1.7 million for 2001 and 2000, respectively. The operating loss for
2001 was greater principally due to lower revenues in the year compared to the
prior year. The lower revenues were principally the result of the general
downturn in the United States' economy in 2001 that caused a reduction in
television advertising dollars available to our business and other broadcasters
generally. Indications are that the softness in advertising revenues will
continue as long as the economy continues to slump. We cannot predict the
further course of the economy and its impact on advertising revenues in general
and specifically to us.

         Other Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss Items

         The increase in corporate expenses of $3.5 million to $12.9 million was
due to the growth of our overall operations. Other operating expenses of $34.2
million include $21.4 million in expenses associated with our ongoing DirecTV
and patent infringement litigations compared to $3.2 million expended on these
litigations in 2000.

         Interest expense increased $14.2 million to $136.3 million principally
due to the amount of time that our 12-3/8% notes and 13-1/2% senior subordinated
discount notes were outstanding during 2001 versus 2000. These notes were
initially issued by subsidiaries of our subsidiary Golden Sky Holdings and came
to us when we acquired Golden Sky Holdings in May 2000, whereas the 12-3/8% and
13-1/2% notes were outstanding throughout all of 2001. The notes of the Golden
Sky Holdings' subsidiaries had been exchanged in 2001 for like notes of our
subsidiary Pegasus Satellite Communications. The interest on these notes was
offset in part by a lower aggregate amount of interest incurred on our combined
term loan and revolving credit facilities this year versus last year principally
due to lower variable rates of interest on this debt available to us in 2001
than in 2000. The combined weighted average principal amount outstanding for
term loans and revolving credit facilities for 2001 was $399.6 million compared
to $309.7 million in 2000. However, the combined weighted average variable
interest rate on this debt in 2001 was 7.84% compared to 10.49% in 2000, after
factoring in the effect of our interest rate hedging instruments in each year.
Short term interest rates in general declined throughout 2001 in response to the
Federal Reserve's attempt to stimulate the sluggish economy by reducing interest
rates. Such interest rate reductions in general meant continually declining
market rates of interest were available to us on our variable rate debt in 2001
relative to the market rates of interest available to us for this debt in 2000.

         Interest income of $4.9 million was lower in 2001 than in 2000 by $10.3
million due to lower average cash amounts on hand during 2001 than in 2000.
Also, lower rates of interest were available to us on amounts outstanding during
2001 than in 2000 due to general lower market rates in 2001 than in 2000.

         In the third quarter 2001, we determined that our sole investment in
marketable securities had incurred an other than temporary decline in market
value. Accordingly, we wrote down the cost basis in this investment to its then
fair market value and charged earnings in the amount of $34.2 million for the
impairment loss realized. In connection with this write down, we made a
reclassification adjustment to other comprehensive income (loss) of $21.2
million, net of income taxes of $13.0 million, to remove all of the net
unrealized losses on this investment that had been accumulated at the date of
the write down.

         Other nonoperating expenses of $7.1 million included $4.2 million for
losses on the decrease in the fair market values of our interest rate
instruments. Equity in earnings of affiliates of $14.3 million for 2001
primarily represented the gain on sales of certain licenses made by one of our
affiliates in which we have an investment.

         The benefit for income taxes on the loss from continuing operations
increased $21.5 million to $123.5 million due to a greater amount of pretax loss
in 2001 than in 2000. The extraordinary loss on the extinguishments of debt of
$1.8 million, net of income taxes of $1.1 million, represented our write offs of
unamortized deferred financing costs associated with debt repaid and credit
agreements terminated during the year.

Comparison of 2000 to 1999

         In this section, amounts and changes specified are for the year ended
December 31, 2000 compared to the year ended December 31, 1999, unless indicated
otherwise.

         Direct Broadcast Satellite Business

         Revenues
         --------

         Revenues increased $295.7 million to $582.1 million principally due to
the virtual doubling of our number of subscribers to 1,403,000 at December 31,
2000. Of this subscriber increase, 446,000 were from acquisitions, of which
345,000 resulted from our acquisition of Golden Sky Holdings. In 2000 we
acquired the exclusive DIRECTV distribution rights to an additional 2.6 million
households, of which 1.9 million came from the Golden Sky Holdings acquisition.
At December 31, 2000, we had exclusive DIRECTV distribution rights to 7.4
million households. In 2000, we added 255,000 net subscribers through internal
growth compared to net internal growth of 228,000 in 1999. Our growth increased
our subscriber penetration to 18.9% at December 31, 2000 from 14.4% at December
31, 1999.

         Operating Expenses
         ------------------

         Programming expenses increased $115.3 million to $252.7 million
primarily due to the incremental expenses incurred in providing service to an
increased subscriber base in place throughout 2000 compared to 1999. Our average
number of subscribers increased in 2000 by 78.4%. Additionally, the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative implemented in mid 2000 a 5-6% programming
rate increase with respect to our core programming package.

         Other subscriber related expenses increased $70.7 million to $135.5
million. Other subscriber related expenses include infrastructure costs billed
to us by the NRTC, expenses associated with call centers, bad debt expense,
franchise fees, and other costs that vary with changes in the number of
subscribers. The increase is principally due to the incremental expenses
incurred in serving the increased subscriber base in place throughout 2000
compared to 1999. Our average number of subscribers increased in 2000 by 78.4%.

         Promotions and incentives expensed increased $8.8 million to $31.7
million. Total promotions and incentives expensed and capitalized were $43.9
million in 2000. We did not capitalize any promotions and incentives in 1999.
Total promotions and incentives incurred per new subscriber added in 2000
increased by 52.9% from that in 1999. The increases were primarily due to
increased subsidies to our independent retail network channel resulting from the
growth in the number of our subscribers and revisions to and expansion of our
subsidy plans. In 2000 we revised our subsidy plans to provide more incentives
to our dealers and distributors. Also, in August 2000 we entered into the
seamless marketing agreement with DirecTV, referred to earlier, under which we
reimbursed them for, among other items, subsidies they incurred related to
subscribers they enrolled in our exclusive territories. Promotions and
incentives capitalized in 2000 were $12.2 million. The increase in the amount
capitalized was due to subscription plans in place in 2000 that were not in
place in 1999 under which we were able to capitalize equipment provided to
subscribers under these plans.

         Advertising and selling expenses increased $52.4 million to $132.7
million. Total advertising and selling costs incurred per new subscriber added
in 2000 increased by 32.8% from that in 1999. The increases were primarily due
to increased commissions to our dealer network resulting from the growth in the
number of our subscribers and revisions to and expansion of our commission
plans. In 2000 we revised our commission plans to provide more compensation to
our dealers. Also, in August 2000 we entered into the seamless marketing
agreement with DirecTV, referred to earlier, under which we reimbursed them for,
among other items, commissions they incurred related to subscribers they
enrolled in our exclusive territories.

         General and administrative expenses increased $11.1 million to $24.6
million primarily due to the incremental internal support costs we incurred in
providing service to our increased subscriber base. We had a larger average
number of employees in 2001 than in 2000 with resultant higher employee related
expenses.

         Subscriber acquisition costs expensed increased $52.2 million to
approximately $170.0 million. Per new subscriber added, these expenses were $404
and $349 for 2000 and 1999, respectively. Total subscriber acquisition costs
expensed and capitalized or deferred, in 2000 were $182.2 million, or $433 per
new subscriber added. We did not defer or capitalize subscriber acquisition
costs in 1999. The increases were principally due to increased commissions and
subsidies to our independent retail network resulting from the growth in the
number of our subscribers and revisions to and expansion of our commission and
subsidy plans.

         Depreciation and amortization increased $108.6 million to $185.4
million. Of this increase, approximately $67.0 million was due to amortization
of the $1.0 billion in direct broadcast satellite rights assets we recorded in
the Golden Sky Holdings acquisition.

         Revenues and Operating Expenses of Other Businesses

         Net revenues of our other businesses were $35.4 million in 2000 and
$36.4 million in 1999. Net operating expenses of our other businesses were $37.1
million in 2000 and $34.3 million in 1999. In 2000 and 1999, our other
businesses consisted of broadcast. Reduced ratings in 2000 for our affiliated

                                       38
<PAGE>

Fox network stations combined with lower television advertising in general in
2000 contributed to this decrease. Also contributing to this decrease were
advertising revenues that we earned in 1999 associated with the National
Football League's Super Bowl game that was carried by the Fox network in 1999.
The increase in operating expenses principally reflects increased amortization
of additional programming costs we incurred commencing in July 1999 in the
purchase of new and additional programming. Some of this new and additional
programming was for premier shows that have a higher programming premium
associated with them.

         Other Statement of Operations and Comprehensive Loss Items

         The increase in corporate expenses of $3.8 million to $9.4 million
reflected growth in the corporate infrastructure in support of the growth of our
overall business. Development costs of $4.6 million represented the combined
expenses of corporate initiatives that during 2000 were in their infancy of
development and not yet individually of a significant, continuing nature to be
reported separately. Costs associated with our developing broadband business
were included in these costs. Other operating expenses of $11.1 million included
$3.3 million in expenses associated with our ongoing DirecTV and patent
infringement litigations.

         Interest expense increased $57.2 million to $122.1 million. This
increase was due to additional borrowings outstanding and higher rates of
interest incurred during 2000. Fixed rate borrowings increased $322.7 million at
a combined weighted average interest rate of 12.93% for debt of Golden Sky
Holdings' subsidiaries. Variable rate borrowings under revolving credit and term
loan facilities increased by $177.8 million. A portion of this increase was due
to amounts outstanding under revolving credit and term loan facilities of Golden
Sky Holdings' subsidiaries totaling $72.0 million. Amounts outstanding under our
subsidiary Pegasus Media & Communications' credit facilities increased by $105.8
million. The aggregate weighted average amount of principal and interest rates,
after factoring in the effects of our interest rate hedging instruments,
associated with all of our variable rate debt outstanding was $309.7 million and
10.49%, respectively, for 2000 compared to $112.6 million and 8.06%,
respectively, for 1999.

         Interest income increased $13.9 million to $15.2 million due to
significantly higher average cash balances available for short term investing.
The average month end cash balance was $275.5 million in 2000 compared to $23.0
million in 1999. These higher balances principally reflect incremental cash made
available in connection with the $290.4 million in net proceeds received in our
Series C preferred stock we issued in January 2000 and the $167.5 million in
proceeds associated with the sale of our Puerto Rico cable operations in
September 2000.

         Our income taxes on the loss from continuing operations was a benefit
of approximately $102.0 million in 2000 compared to an expense of $496,000 in
1999. This variance was due to the valuation allowances we had previously
established against deferred income tax assets during 1999 that were no longer
required in 2000, and the benefits of these deferred income tax assets were
recognized in 2000. We had established valuation allowances against deferred
income tax assets in 1999 in our belief at that time that we would not realize
the benefits of these tax assets. These valuation allowances negated the
benefits of these tax assets in 1999.

         Within discontinued operations, a gain of $59.4 million, net of Puerto
Rico capital gain and withholding taxes that were currently payable in the
amount of $28.0 million, was recognized on the sale of our Puerto Rico cable
operations in September 2000.

                                       39
<PAGE>
         An extraordinary loss from the extinguishment of debt in 2000 amounted
to $5.8 million, net of income taxes of $3.5 million. This reflected the write
off of unamortized balances of deferred financing costs connected with our debt
that was refinanced when Pegasus Media & Communications' credit agreement was
amended in January 2000.

         Other comprehensive loss, net of income taxes, represented the
adjustment of the carrying amount to the fair market value of the marketable
securities we owned at December 31, 2000.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

         We are highly leveraged, which makes us more vulnerable to adverse
economic and industry conditions. At December 31, 2001, we had a combined
carrying amount of long term debt and redeemable preferred stocks outstanding of
$1.8 billion. In 2001, we paid cash interest of $113.2 million. Prior to 2002,
we paid cash dividends only on our Series B preferred stock, amounting to
$57,000 on an annual basis. Beginning in July 2002, we are scheduled to pay cash
dividends on our 12-3/4% series preferred stock, amounting to $11.7 million in
2002 and $23.5 million annually thereafter. Prior to 2002, we were able to pay
the dividends on this series with shares of the series. Also in 2002, $10.7
million of preferred stock is scheduled to become redeemable in cash at the
option of holders, of which $5.7 million was redeemed in March 2002. Using cash
for these payments reduces the availability of funds to us for working capital,
capital expenditures, and other activities, and limits our flexibility in
planning for, or reacting to, changes in our business and the industries in
which we operate. Our ability to make payments on and to refinance indebtedness
and redeemable preferred stocks outstanding and to fund planned capital
expenditures and other activities will depend on our ability to generate cash in
the future. Our ability to generate cash will depend upon the success of our
business strategy, prevailing economic conditions, regulatory risks, our ability
to integrate acquired assets successfully into our operations, competitive
activities by other parties, equipment strategies, technological developments,
level of programming costs, levels of interest rates and financial, business,
and other factors that are beyond our control. We cannot assure that our
business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that alternative
financing will be available to us in amounts sufficient to service outstanding
debt and redeemable preferred stocks or to fund other liquidity needs. Our
indebtedness and preferred stocks contain numerous covenants that, among other
things, generally limit the ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens,
issue other securities, make certain payments and investments, pay dividends,
transfer cash, dispose of assets, and enter into other transactions, and imposes
limitations on the activities of subsidiaries. Failure to make debt payments or
comply with covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or
waived, could have a material adverse effect on us.

         At December 31, 2001, we had a total of cash, excluding restricted
cash, and cash equivalents of $144.7 million, and availability of $59.1 million
to borrow funds under Pegasus Media & Communications' revolving credit facility.
Additionally, at December 31, 2001, we had an arrangement in place for an
uncommitted $200.0 million of additional financing that expires June 30, 2002.
We believe these resources in combination with amounts that we project will be
provided from our operations in 2002 will be sufficient to meet our operational
needs and expected capital expenditures, other investing, debt service, and
capital stock requirements for all of 2002. However, we cannot provide any
assurance as to the amount or sufficiency of cash that will be provided by our
operations in 2002.

         We project that our capital expenditures for 2002 will be approximately
$34.0 million to $40.0 million, of which approximately $16.0 million to $18.0
million will be for direct broadcast satellite equipment capitalized. The total
projected capital expenditures amount includes $10.7 million for the option we
exercised in January 2002 to purchase an office building we have been renting.
Our combined annual minimum commitment for call center and communication
services in 2002 is $27.3 million. Based on amounts outstanding at December 31,
2001, in 2002 cash dividends payable will be $11.7 million, scheduled principal
repayments on Pegasus Media & Communications' term loan facility will be $2.8
million, and cash interest due on notes will be $86.3 million. Dividends for


                                       40
<PAGE>

2002 exclude dividends associated with Series B preferred stock as this series
was redeemed in March 2002. Interest incurred on the term loan facility with
outstanding principal of $272.3 million at December 31, 2001 is based on
variable rates of interest. Assuming that the variable interest rate of
approximately 5.44% in effect on December 31, 2001 for the term loan facility is
in effect for all of 2002 for this debt less scheduled principal repayments
during the year, our aggregate cash interest payments on this debt for 2002
would be approximately $14.7 million. Cash interest is payable on principal
amounts outstanding under Pegasus Media & Communications' revolving credit
facility. However, projections of interest to be incurred for this facility in
2002 are not provided because amounts that may be outstanding under the facility
vary with our additional cash needs, if any, that may be present throughout the
year, and the interest rate on principal outstanding varies with market rates
that will be available to us in 2002. We cannot project what market rates will
be available to us in 2002, for these rates are based on factors that we do not
control and cannot predict. For 2001, the weighted average principal amount
outstanding, interest rate, and cash interest incurred on the revolving facility
was $72.9 million, 6.74%, and $4.9 million, respectively. The amount outstanding
under the revolving credit facility at December 31, 2001 of $80.0 million was
repaid in early January 2002.

         Maturities of long term debt, repayment of principal under capital
leases, and scheduled repayments of principal on our term loans and revolving
credit facility based on principal amounts outstanding at December 31, 2001 are
$31.8 million in 2003, $192.7 million in 2004, $328.2 million in 2005, $295.2
million in 2006, and $531.0 million thereafter. Cash dividends of $23.5 million
are payable annually on the 12-3/4% Series preferred stock from 2003 until the
series is redeemed on January 1, 2007, at which time we are scheduled to redeem
for cash all of the shares of the series outstanding at that date. This would
amount to approximately $184.0 million, based on shares outstanding at December
31, 2001. Amounts that become redeemable for our other series of preferred stock
at the elections of holders aggregate $11.1 million in 2003 and $6.4 million in
2004. In 2003, the combined annual commitment due for our call center and
communication services under contract at December 31, 2001 is $23.2 million, and
$20.3 million for the call center services in 2004. We believe that funding in
meeting these future payments will be provided from a combination of funds from
operations, other financing arrangements we may enter into in the future, and/or
additional public issuances of our securities. At this time, we cannot determine
with any certainty the amount of funds that will be generated by or available to
us and from what sources the funds will be provided in payment of these and
operational, working capital, capital expenditures, and any other cash
requirements that may arise beyond 2002.

         Our common and preferred stock and options and warrants to purchase our
Class A common stock have been capital resources that provided us liquidity.
They are a capital resource for the cash we receive from the proceeds of stock
issued to the public and when holders exercised options and warrants upon which
they paid the associated exercise price per unit of option and warrant. They are
a form of liquidity in that we issued these securities in lieu of cash payments
when circumstances permitted thereby preserving cash for other purposes.
However, the amount of liquidity provided by our Class A common stock depends
upon the market price of the stock, which we cannot control. The lower the
market price of the stock, the more shares we may need to issue to provide
comparable value sought by the recipients of the stock. A lower stock price may
make this form of liquidity unattractive to potential payees or undesirable to
us. As mentioned above, beginning July 2002 we must pay cash for the dividends
for our 12-3/4% Series preferred stock. In 2001, in lieu of cash we issued 1.5
million shares of our Class A common stock in payment of $21.1 million of
dividends on our preferred stocks and another 999,001 shares in redemption of
$10.0 million of preferred stock. Also in 2001, in lieu of cash we issued 20,000
shares of 12-3/4% Series preferred stock in payment of $20.1 million of
dividends on the series in 2001. Additionally, in 2001 we granted to employees
1.7 million options to purchase our Class A common stock with an aggregate date
of grant fair market value of $15.6 million in lieu of cash compensation. In
2000, in lieu of cash we issued 13.5 million shares of Class A common stock, an
aggregate 38,000 shares of three separate series of preferred stocks, and a
combined number of stock options and warrants of 2.7 million in connection with


                                       41
<PAGE>

acquisitions and investments in affiliates we made aggregating approximately
$789.0 million. Also in 2000, in lieu of cash we issued 326,000 shares of Class
A common stock in payment of $15.0 million in dividends on our preferred stock
and granted to employees 1.2 million options to purchase our Class A common
stock with an aggregate date of grant fair market value of $31.9 million.
Additionally in 2000, in lieu of cash we issued 18,000 shares of our 12-3/4%
Series preferred stock in payment of dividends of $17.8 million on the series.
Over the last three fiscal years, in lieu of cash we issued 378,000 shares of
our Class A common stock as payment for employee benefits and awards totaling
$8.2 million. In January 2002, in lieu of cash we issued 11,000 shares of
12-3/4% Series preferred stock in payment of $11.0 million of dividends on the
series and 576,000 shares of Class A common stock in payment of $5.2 million of
dividends on other series of preferred stocks. We received net proceeds of
$290.4 million from the public issuance of 3.0 million shares of 6-1/2% Series C
preferred stock in 2000 and net proceeds of $74.9 million from the public
issuance of 7.2 million shares of Class A common stock in 1999. Over the last
three fiscal years, we issued 2.1 million shares of Class A common stock and
received $7.3 million in cash from the exercises of options and warrants. We
have the option to continue to pay dividends on our 6-1/2% Series C, 4% Series
D, and 4% Series E preferred stocks in Class A common stock. It is likely that
we will continue to pay the dividends on these preferred stocks with Class A
common stock for the foreseeable future.

         Net cash used for operating activities was $131.4 million, $58.6
million, and $84.3 million for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Cash used for
operating activities in 2001 was primarily for interest payments of $113.2
million, $28.0 million for Puerto Rico capital gains and withholding taxes
associated with the sale of our cable operations in Puerto Rico in 2000, and
$12.4 million of expenses associated with our DirecTV and patent infringement
litigations, offset in part by net cash generated by operations. The greater
amount of cash used for operating activities in 2001 compared to 2000 is
primarily due to an increase in cash interest of $13.6 million, $28.0 million
for the taxes associated with the sale of our Puerto Rico cable operations,
increased expenses associated with our DirecTV and patent infringement
litigations of $9.2 million, a reduction in interest income in 2001 of $10.3
million, offset in part by a net increase in cash generated by operations in
2001 compared to 2000. The increase in interest payments is primarily due to the
amount of time that our 12-3/8% notes were outstanding during 2001 versus 2000.
These notes were initially those of subsidiaries of our subsidiary Golden Sky
Holdings that came to us when we acquired Golden Sky Holdings in May 2000. We
only had one scheduled semiannual interest payment to make on these notes in
2000 after we obtained them compared to the two semiannual interest payments we
made on these notes in 2001. These notes of the Golden Sky Holdings'
subsidiaries had been exchanged for like notes of our Pegasus Satellite
Communications subsidiary in 2001. The taxes associated with our sale of our
Puerto Rico cable operations in 2000 had been accrued in 2000 but were not
payable until 2001. The increase in the litigation expenses is a combination of
the increased level of activity in 2001 associated with the DirecTV litigation
compared to the level of activity in 2000 and the amount of time that the patent
infringement litigation, which commenced December 2000, existed in 2001 compared
to 2000. Interest income decreased in 2001 from 2000 due to the greater amounts
of cash outstanding in 2000 than in 2001. Greater amounts of cash were
outstanding in 2000 due to the net proceeds of $290.4 million we received from
the issuance of our Series C preferred stock in 2000 and the net proceeds of
approximately $166.9 million we received from the sale of our Puerto Rico cable
operations in 2000. We continued to use this cash for operating and investing
purposes throughout 2000 and into 2001. Cash used for operating activities in
2000 was primarily for cash interest of $99.6 million, offset in part by net
cash generated by operations. The lesser amount of cash used for operating
activities in 2000 compared to 1999 is primarily due to increased cash from
operations resulting from our growth through acquisitions offset in part by
increased interest payments in 2000 of $24.7 million.

         Premarketing cash flow of our direct broadcast satellite ("DBS")
business was $237.1 million, $174.9 million, and $85.2 million for 2001, 2000,
and 1999, respectively. DBS EBITDA was $92.0 million, $4.9 million, and $(32.6)
million for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. DBS premarketing cash flow is


                                       42
<PAGE>


calculated by taking the revenues of the DBS business and deducting programming
expense (excluding promotional programming), other subscriber related expenses,
and general and administrative expenses. DBS EBITDA is DBS premarketing cash
flow less promotional programming, promotions and incentives, and advertising
and selling expenses. We present DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA
because the DBS business is our only significant segment and this business forms
the principal portion of our results of operations and cash flows. The increases
in DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA in each year are due to the
increase in revenues generated by an increasing subscriber base in each year
outpacing the increasing costs in servicing the larger subscriber base in each.
The increase in 2001 compared to 2000 is additionally due to an increase of
$29.2 million in the amount of subscriber acquisition costs deferred and
capitalized in 2001 compared 2000. The increase in the amount of subscriber
acquisition costs deferred and capitalized is primarily due to a combination of:
(1) an increase in 2001 in subscribers enrolling in plans under which we are
able to capitalize as fixed assets the equipment provided to the subscribers,
(2) an increase in 2001 in subscribers enrolling in plans with commitment
periods and termination penalties under which direct and incremental subscriber
acquisition costs are eligible to be deferred, and (3) the greater amount of
time that plans permitting capitalization and deferral of subscriber acquisition
costs were in place in 2001 than in 2000.

         DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA are not, and should not be
considered, alternatives to income from operations, net income, net cash
provided by operating activities or any other measure for determining our
operating performance or liquidity, as determined under generally accepted
accounting principles. DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA also do not
necessarily indicate whether our cash flow will be sufficient to fund working
capital, capital expenditures or to react to changes in our industry or the
economy generally. We believe that DBS premarketing cash flow and DBS EBITDA are
important because people who follow our industry frequently use them as measures
of financial performance and ability to pay debt service, and they are measures
that we, our lenders and investors use to monitor our financial performance and
debt leverage. Although EBITDA is a common measure used by other companies, our
calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable with that of others.

         Net cash provided by financing activities in 2001 was $127.1 million.
In the third quarter 2001, we borrowed $75.0 million under a short term
facility. This borrowing was repaid with the net proceeds received from the
issuance of $175.0 million principal amount of 11-1/4% notes in December 2001 by
our subsidiary Pegasus Satellite Communications. We received net proceeds of
$170.2 million from the issuance, after reduction for financing costs associated
with the issuance of the notes. We used the proceeds to repay the principal
outstanding under the short term facility, $57.0 million of debt outstanding
under bank credit facilities, and interest of $1.3 million accrued on debt
repaid. The remaining proceeds were kept on hand for working capital and other
corporate purposes as needed. Overall in 2001, we repaid a net $29.8 million
principal of debt outstanding under bank credit facilities, and repaid $7.6
million principal of other debt outstanding.

         In 2001, we used cash for investing activities of $65.4 million. Of
this amount, $46.1 million was spent on property and equipment, including $20.8
million for direct broadcast satellite equipment that was capitalized as fixed
assets. We also spent $13.7 million on intangible assets in 2001, including $3.7
million for three guardband licenses.

         Net cash provided by financing activities was $395.4 million in 2000
and $208.8 million in 1999. The principal sources of cash for financing
activities in 2000 were net proceeds of $290.4 million received from the
issuance of our Series C preferred stock and a net $117.8 million borrowed on
bank credit facilities, less a net $10.2 million of long term debt repaid. The
principal sources of cash for financing activities in 1999 were a net $130.3
million borrowed on bank credit facilities and net proceeds of $77.7 million
received from the issuance of our Class A common stock in a public offering.


                                       43

         We used cash for investing activities of $162.9 million in 2000, less
net proceeds of $166.9 million received from the sale of our Puerto Rico cable
operations, and approximately $138.6 million in 1999. The principal investing
activities in 2000 were acquisitions of other DIRECTV providers of $152.7
million and our initial purchases of 31 guardband licenses of $91.7 million. In
2000, we also spent $46.4 million for combined direct broadcast satellite
equipment capitalized and other capital expenditures, $20.2 million for
intangible assets other than guardband licenses, and made investments in
affiliates of $14.6 million. The principal investing activities in 1999 were
acquisitions of other DIRECTV providers of $106.9 million, $19.4 million for
capital expenditures, $4.8 million in investments in affiliates, and $4.6
million for intangible assets. The acquisitions of other DIRECTV providers
enabled us to significantly increase our direct broadcast satellite subscriber
base.

         We purchased the guard band licenses through one of our subsidiaries in
two auctions conducted by the Federal Communications Commission. These licenses
permit communications within a specified spectrum and geographic areas. The term
of these licenses runs through January 1, 2015, unless we use the licenses to
provide new broadcast type operations beginning on or before January 1, 2006, in
which case we will be required to renew the licenses eight years after the
beginning of these new broadcast type operations. We have not fully developed
our plans for the use of these licenses in our business at this time.

         In August 2001, we were awarded five Ka-band orbital locations by the
Federal Communications Commission. Development of the Ka-band will permit us to
operate our own satellite platform from which we can offer the delivery of
advanced digital video, audio and multimedia services, local broadcast station
retransmission, and Internet access services to consumers and businesses. The
Federal Communications Commission imposed milestones for the construction,
launching, and operation of the satellites. Construction of the first satellite
is to commence no later than August 2002, and is to be launched and operable no
later than March 2003. Construction of the remaining satellites is to commence
no later than August 2003, and the satellites are to be launched and operable no
later than July 2005. At this time, we have issued a request for proposal for
two satellites to be built and launched on a schedule that complies with the
license milestones. In the second quarter of 2002, we may award and enter into
contracts relating to these satellites. We project that the cost to design,
construct, launch, and insure the first satellite could exceed $250 million. We
believe that the costs associated with the second satellite would likely be less
than this amount. Additional costs will be associated with the development of
the related ground segment in support of the satellite platform. We project that
a complete deployment of the ground segment may exceed $500 million, although we
believe that launch of a competitive service can be accomplished with an
investment of less than $100 million. We would incur additional expenses in the
operation of the satellite service that we have not yet determined or
quantified. In order to reduce or defer expenses, we may initially authorize
construction of a single satellite and associated ground equipment. We expect to
finance the development of these satellites and associated ground systems
through a combination of vendor financing and debt and equity investments.
Although the Federal Communications Commission's order issuing the Ka-band
licenses indicated that the license must be in use by March 2003, it may be
possible for us to extend the milestone until March 2005. There can be no
assurances that we will be able to secure the necessary financing to construct
the satellites or that we will be able to procure the satellites within the
required milestones.

New Accounting Pronouncements

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business
Combinations" addresses financial accounting and reporting for business
combinations. One of the principal requirements of this statement is that all
business combinations initiated or for which the date of acquisition is after
June 30, 2001 are to be accounted for using only the purchase method. We have
not completed a business combination since June 30, 2001. Another principal
provision of this statement requires companies to reassess the classification of
carrying amounts for goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill
recognized in acquisitions in which the acquisition date was before July 1, 2001
to determine their appropriate classification in accordance with the statement.
For us, this provision became effective on January 1, 2002, and will be applied
by us in the first quarter 2002. We have not yet finalized our assessment of the
classification of the carrying amounts of goodwill and intangible assets apart
from goodwill, but based on our preliminary assessment, we believe that there
will be no material impact on us.

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other
Intangible Assets" addresses financial accounting and reporting: (1) at the date
of acquisition of goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill acquired
other than in a business combination and (2) all goodwill and intangible assets
apart from goodwill subsequent to their acquisition. A principal requirement of
this statement is to determine the useful lives of intangible assets and
amortize or not amortize the intangible assets accordingly. Intangible assets
apart from goodwill with finite lives are to be amortized over their useful
lives to their residual value, if any, whereas goodwill and intangible assets
apart from goodwill with indefinite lives are not to be amortized. Another
principal requirement of this statement relates to impairment of goodwill and
intangible assets apart from goodwill. Goodwill is to be separately stated from
intangible assets apart from goodwill on the statement of financial position.
This statement in its entirety became effective for us on January 1, 2002.
Certain provisions of the statement were effective July 1, 2001, but did not
significantly impact us because we have not acquired any goodwill or significant
intangible assets apart from goodwill since July 1, 2001. Certain provisions of
the statement are to be applied by us by the end of the first quarter 2002.
Other provisions of this statement have transition periods that for us end June
30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, with retroactive application of the effects of
the transition periods to our first quarter 2002. We have not yet completed our
analyses associated with the impacts of this statement, and do not have
sufficient information at this time to determine whether or not the impacts will
be material to our financial position or results of operations.

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143 "Accounting for
Asset Retirement Obligations" addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This statement is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2002. We are
studying the provisions of this statement and have not yet determined the
impacts, if any, that this statement may have on us.

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 "Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets" addresses financial accounting and
reporting for the impairment or disposal of long lived assets. The provisions of
this statement became effective for us on January 1, 2002. Many of the
provisions of this statement are the same as or similar to provisions of
previously existing accounting standards that this statement now supersedes. We
have not yet finalized our analysis of this statement. However, based on our
preliminary assessment of the statement and our belief that there are relatively
no new requirements imposed by the statement from requirements previously in
effect for us under prior accounting standards, we believe that there will be no
material impact on us.

ITEM 7A: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

         Our primary market risk is change in interest rates. Our primary
exposure is variable rates of interest associated with borrowings under our
revolving credit and term loan facilities. These rates of interest are based on
prime and LIBOR, as appropriate, which vary in accordance with prevailing
economic conditions. As required under the terms of our credit agreement, we
entered into interest rate hedging instruments aggregating $140.0 million in
notional amount. We did not enter into these instruments for trading or
speculative purposes.

         The following tables summarize our market risks associated with debt,
redeemable preferred stocks, and interest rate hedging instruments outstanding
at December 31, 2001 and 2000. The tables display future cash flows for periodic
payments and maturities of principal for debt and redemptions of preferred
stock. These cash flows reflect scheduled principal repayments and maturities
for debt, and the redemption amounts for preferred stocks assume that all shares
scheduled to be redeemed at the option of holders in each year are fully
redeemed, in addition to scheduled mandatory redemptions, based on amounts
outstanding at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. The interest or
dividend rate for each year in the table is based on the principal or par value
outstanding at the end of the year, after taking into effect any payment,
maturities, and redemptions that occurred in that year. Because of their
variable and unpredictable nature, the interest rates specified for variable
rate debt for each year are based on the actual aggregate weighted average rate
in effect at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, adjusted for the weighted
effect of payments and maturities that occur in each year. With respect to our
interest rate swap instruments, we pay fixed interest and receive variable
interest, and the rates specified are based on the contracted fixed interest
rates that we pay. With respect to our cap instruments, we receive variable
interest when the applicable rates exceed the cap rates, and the rates specified
are based on the contracted cap rates. Notional amounts for our swaps and caps
are presented in the period that the related contracts expire. The notional
amounts of the swaps and caps are used to measure interest to be paid or
received. We do not pay any cash with respect to the notional amounts when they
expire. Fair values of publicly held fixed rate debt and redeemable preferred
stocks were determined based on quoted market prices for each individual
security. Fair values for variable rate debt were based on their principal
amounts outstanding at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, for the
principal amounts are subject to short term variable rates of interest and the
rates in effect at December 31, 2001 and 2000 approximate the market rates
available at each date. Valuations of nonpublicly held preferred stocks included
in the tables were not significant. Fair values of the swaps and caps were based
on the estimated amounts to settle the contracts assuming they were terminated
at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

         There was a marked decrease in interest rates on our variable rate debt
in 2001 compared to 2000. Short term interest rates in general declined
throughout 2001 in response to the Federal Reserve's attempt to stimulate the
sluggish economy by reducing interest rates. Such interest rate reductions in
general meant continually declining market rates of interest were available to
us on our variable rate debt in 2001 relative to the market rates of interest
available to us for this debt in 2000.

         We have two swap contracts, one with a notional amount of $35.0 million
and the other with a notional amount of $37.1 million. The aggregate weighted
average fixed rate of interest for these contracts was 7.19% in each year. Each
contract is marked to the 6 month LIBOR rate in effect at the beginning of each
6 month resetting period. We have two interest rate caps, one with a notional
amount of $33.9 million and the other with a notional amount of $34.0 million.
The cap rate under each contract is 9.0% and payment is determined quarterly
based on the 3 month LIBOR rate in effect at the beginning of each 6 month
resetting period. As a result of market LIBOR rates available to us for the
swaps being lower than the fixed rates we pay on the swaps, we paid net
additional interest of approximately $1.0 million in each of 2001 and 2000 with
respect to our interest rate instruments. The net effect of the interest rate
instruments on our weighted average variable rates of interest was an increase
of 21 basis points in 2001 and 30 basis points in 2000.

(1)      Unless otherwise indicated, the included amounts represent the fair
         market value of shares vested at the time of award under Pegasus'
         restricted stock plan. Subject to limitations specified in Pegasus'
         restricted stock plan, an executive officer may elect to receive all or
         a portion of an award in the form of cash, stock or an option to
         purchase shares. The cash portion of an award is reported as a bonus to
         executive officers, as described in note 2 below. The portion of an
         award chosen to be received as stock is reported either as a bonus if
         unrestricted at the time of grant or, if restricted, as a restricted
         stock award under note 5 below. The portion of an award chosen to be
         received as options to purchase shares is reported under note 7 below.
         Generally, awards made under Pegasus' restricted stock plan vest based
         upon years of service with Pegasus from the date of initial employment.
         Shares are vested 34% after two years of employment, an additional 33%
         after three years of employment and the remaining 33% vests upon four
         years of employment. As a consequence, awards made under Pegasus'
         restricted stock plan may be either partially or fully vested on the
         date they are granted. All awards made to Messrs. Pagon and Verlin
         under Pegasus' restricted stock plan in fiscal years 1999, 2000 and
         2001 were fully vested on the date granted. Awards to Mr. Lodge in
         fiscal years 1999, 2000 and 2001 were 34%, 67% and fully vested on the
         date granted, respectively. In addition, Mr. Lodge received a special
         recognition award of 308 shares in 1999, which was fully vested upon
         issuance. Mr. Smith received an award in fiscal year 2001, which was

(5)      The included amounts represent the fair market value of the restricted
         portion of stock awards chosen to be received under Pegasus' restricted
         plan, as described in note 1 above. Mr. Lodge's employment with Pegasus
         began on July 1, 1996. Consequently, awards of 2,838 shares and 858
         shares granted to Mr. Lodge in fiscal years 1999 and 2000,
         respectively, were fully vested on July 1, 2000, and the award of 1,456
         shares granted in fiscal year 2002 was fully vested on the date of
         grant. Mr. Smith's employment with Pegasus began on September 8, 1998.

         to Mr. Smith in fiscal year 2001, or 67%, had vested. The remaining 342
         restricted shares held by Mr. Smith are scheduled to vest in 2002. Mr.
         Blank's employment with Pegasus began on January 18, 1999.
         Consequently, as of December 31, 2001, 1,721 of the 5,064 shares
         granted to Mr. Blank under Pegasus' restricted stock plan in fiscal
         year 2001, or 34%, had vested. 1,670 of the remaining 3,343 restricted
         shares held by Mr. Blank vested on January 18, 2002 and the remaining
         1,673 shares are scheduled to vest on January 18, 2003. Based upon the
         closing price of Pegasus' Class A common stock on December 31, 2001 of
         $10.41 per share, the 342 restricted shares held by Mr. Smith and the
         3,343 shares held by Mr. Blank had a value of $3,560 and $34,801,
         respectively, on December 31, 2001. Subject to limitations specified in
         Pegasus' restricted stock plan, executive officers are entitled to
         receive dividends on the unvested portion of their awards, excluding
         any portion of their award for which they elect to receive options in
         lieu of stock. Pegasus does not anticipate paying cash dividends on its
         common stock in the foreseeable future. Pegasus' policy is to retain
         cash for operations and expansion.

(6)      Adjusted to reflect stock split effective as of May 30, 2000.

(7)      Includes options issued under Pegasus' restricted stock plan in lieu of

         Pagon and Smith received options under Pegasus' restricted stock plan
         to purchase 6,822 shares and 1,142 shares, respectively. In fiscal year
         2001, Mr. Verlin received options under Pegasus' restricted stock plan
         to purchase 1,639 shares. Options granted pursuant to Pegasus'
         restricted stock plan vest based upon years of service with Pegasus
         from the date of initial employment, as described in note 1 above. For
         information regarding the exercise price and expiration date of these
         options, see the table below entitled "Option Grants in 2001."

(9)      Of the amounts listed for Mr. Pagon in each of the fiscal years 1999,
         2000 and 2001, $250,0000, $250,000 and $416,805, respectively,
         represent the full-dollar value to Mr. Pagon of premiums paid by
         Pegasus in connection with the split dollar agreements entered into by
         Pegasus with the trustees of insurance trust established by Mr. Pagon.
         The split dollar agreements provide that Pegasus will be repaid all
         amounts it expends for such premiums, either from the cash surrender
         value or the proceeds of the insurance policies. See ITEM 13: Certain
         Relationships and Related Transactions --Split Dollar Agreement.

                              Option Grants in 2001

         Pegasus granted options to employees to purchase a total of 1,709,064
shares during 2001 of which 1,702,185 shares were granted under Pegasus' stock
option plan and 6,879 were granted under Pegasus' restricted stock plan. The
amounts set forth below in the columns entitled "5%" and "10%" represent

(1)      Unless otherwise indicated, the included amounts represent the number
         of options issued on September 20, 2001 under Pegasus' stock option
         plan. Options granted to executive officers under Pegasus' stock option
         plan become exercisable as determined by a stock option plan committee
         organized pursuant to the plan. The options issued as part of the
         September 20, 2001 grant vest based upon years of service with Pegasus
         from the date of initial employment. Options issued are vested 34%
         after two years of employment, an additional 33% after three years of
         employment and the remaining 33% vests upon four years of employment.
         As a consequence, options issued to Messrs. Pagon, Lodge and Verlin
         were fully vested on the date of grant; options issued to Mr. Smith
         were 67% vested on the date of grant and options issued to Mr. Blank
         were 34% vested on the date granted.

         of receiving the award in either cash or stock, as described in note 1
         of the table above entitled "Summary Compensation Table." Options
         granted pursuant to Pegasus' restricted stock plan vest based upon
         years of service with Pegasus from the date of initial employment in a
         manner identical to that described in note 1 above. Mr. Verlin's
         employment with Pegasus began on January 1, 1987, consequently, all
         options granted to Mr. Verlin under Pegasus restricted stock plan were
         fully vested and exercisable on the date of grant.

         The table below shows aggregated stock option exercises by the named
executive officers in 2001 and 2001 year end values. In-the-money options, which
are listed in the last two columns, are those in which the fair market value of
the underlying securities exceeds the exercise price of the option. The closing
price of Pegasus' Class A common stock on December 31, 2001, was $10.41 per

directors. Pegasus currently pays its directors who are not employees or
officers of Pegasus an annual retainer of $10,000 plus $750 for each board
meeting attended in person, $375 for each meeting of a committee of the board
and $375 for each board meeting held by telephone. The annual retainer is
payable, at each director's option, in cash or in the form of options to
purchase Pegasus' Class A common stock. Pegasus also reimburses each director
for all reasonable expenses incurred in traveling to and from the place of each
meeting of the board or committee of the board.

         On September 20, 2001, Robert F. Benbow, Harry F. Hopper III, James J.
McEntee, III, Mary C. Metzger, William P. Phoenix and Robert N. Verdecchio, who
were then all of Pegasus' non-employee directors, each received options to
purchase 20,000 shares of Class A common stock under Pegasus' stock option plan.
Each option vests based upon years of service with Pegasus from the date of

initial appointment to the board of directors. Options issued are vested 34%
after two years of service, an additional 33% after three years of service and
the remaining 33% vest upon four years of service. Each option was issued at an

ITEM 13:  CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Split Dollar Agreements

         In December 1996 and December 2001, Pegasus entered into split dollar
agreements with the trustees of insurance trusts established by Marshall W.
Pagon. Under the split dollar agreements, Pegasus agreed to pay a portion of the
premiums for certain life insurance policies covering Mr. Pagon owned by the
insurance trusts. The agreements provide that Pegasus will be repaid for all
amounts it expends for such premiums, either from the cash surrender value or
the proceeds of the insurance policies. The full-dollar value of premiums paid
by Pegasus amounted to $250,000, $250,000 and $416,805 in each of the years of
1999, 2000 and 2001, respectively.


                                       59
<PAGE>

Relationship with W.W. Keen Butcher and Affiliated Entities

         Pegasus entered into an arrangement in 1998 with W.W. Keen Butcher, the
stepfather of Marshall W. Pagon and Nicholas A. Pagon, who until March 23, 2001
was a Senior Vice President of Pegasus, and certain entities controlled by Mr.
Butcher and the owner of a minority interest in one of the entities. Under this
agreement as modified in 1999, Pegasus agreed to provide and maintain collateral
for up to $8.0 million in principal amount of bank loans to Mr. Butcher, his
affiliated entities and the minority owner. Mr. Butcher and the minority owner
must lend or contribute the proceeds of those bank loans to one or more of the
entities owned by Mr. Butcher for the acquisition of television broadcast
stations to be programmed by Pegasus pursuant to local marketing agreements.

         Under this arrangement, on November 10, 1998, Pegasus sold to one of
the Butcher companies the FCC license for the television station then known as
WOLF for $500,000 and leased certain related assets to the Butcher company,
including leases and subleases for studio, office, tower and transmitter space
and equipment, for ongoing rental payments of approximately $18,000 per year
plus operating expenses. WOLF is now known as WSWB and is one of the television
stations serving the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Pennsylvania designated market area
that is programmed by Pegasus. Mr. Butcher and the minority owner borrowed the
$500,000 under the loan collateral arrangement described above. Concurrently
with the closing under the agreement described above, one of the Butcher
companies assumed a local marketing agreement, under which Pegasus provides
programming to WSWB and retains all revenues generated from advertising in
exchange for payments to the Butcher company of $4,000 per month plus
reimbursement of certain expenses. The term of the local marketing agreement is
three years, with two three year automatic renewals. The Butcher company also
granted Pegasus an option to purchase the station license and assets if it
becomes legal to do so for the costs incurred by the Butcher company relating to
the station, plus compound interest at 12% per year.

         On July 2, 1998, Pegasus assigned to one of the Butcher companies its
option to acquire the FCC license for television station WFXU, which
rebroadcasts WTLH pursuant to a local marketing agreement with Pegasus. The
Butcher company paid Pegasus $50,000 for the option. In May 1999, the Butcher
company purchased the station and assumed the obligations under the local
marketing agreement with Pegasus. The Butcher company borrowed the $50,000 under
the loan collateral arrangement, and granted Pegasus an option to purchase the
station on essentially the same terms described above for WOLF. Pegasus has
recently exercised this option and currently has an application pending before
the FCC seeking consent to the assignment of WFXU's license from the Butcher
company to a subsidiary of Pegasus.

         In addition, a subsidiary of Pegasus has recently purchased the
construction permit for a new full power television station, WBPG(TV), operating
on Channel 55 at Gulf Shores, Alabama, from one of the Butcher companies. On
August 31, 2001, the parties consummated the sale of the assets and construction
permit for WBPG from the Butcher company to a subsidiary of Pegasus for a
purchase price of $451,906. One of the Butcher companies had received the
original construction permit for WBPG from the FCC in July 2000.

         Pegasus currently provides programming under a local marketing
agreement to television station WPME. Under the local marketing agreement,
Pegasus also holds an option to purchase WPME. One of the Butcher companies
acquired WPME and the FCC license from the prior owner in February 2001. Pegasus
believes that the WOLF, WFXU and WBPG transactions were done at fair value and
that any future transactions that may be entered into with the Butcher companies
or similar entities, including the WPME transaction as described, will also be
done at fair value.

Acquisition of Golden Sky Holdings, Inc.

         On May 5, 2000, Pegasus acquired Golden Sky Holdings, Inc. through the
merger of Golden Sky Holdings, Inc. with a subsidiary of Pegasus. Prior to the
merger, Golden Sky was the second largest independent provider of DIRECTV.
Golden Sky operates in 24 states and its territories includes approximately 1.9
million households and 392,100 subscribers.

         In connection with the merger Pegasus issued approximately 12.2 million
shares of its Class A common stock, including stock options, to stockholders and
former employees of Golden Sky. Pegasus also granted registration rights to
certain Golden Sky stockholders, including Alta Communications VI, L.P. and its
affiliates and Spectrum Equity Investors L.P. and its affiliates. As a result of
the Golden Sky merger and the amended voting agreement described below, Robert
F. Benbow and another former director of Golden Sky Holdings were elected to
Pegasus Communications' board of directors.

Voting Agreement

         In connection with Pegasus' acquisitions of Digital Television Services
in 1998 and of Golden Sky in 2000, some of the principal stockholder groups of
those two companies entered into, and later amended, a voting agreement with
Pegasus and Mr. Marshall W. Pagon. The voting agreement provided those
stockholder groups the right to designate members of Pegasus Communications'
board of directors and required Mr. Pagon to cause all shares of Class A and
Class B common stock whose vote he controls to be voted to elect those
designees.

         Because of later events, only affiliates of Alta Communications
currently have the right to designate a director. They have designated Mr.
Benbow.

         Under the amended voting agreement, Mr. Pagon has the right to
designate four directors. His designees are currently himself and Messrs. Lodge
and Verdecchio. Currently, Messrs. Hopper, McEntee and Phoenix and Ms. Metzger
are independent directors, as defined in the voting agreement. Mr. Hopper, prior
to May 2000, was the designee of one of the former stockholders of Digital
Television Services. In May 2000, he became one of Mr. Pagon's designees. At
Pegasus Communications' 2001 annual meeting of stockholders, Mr. Hopper was
elected as an independent director, as defined by the voting agreement, and Mr.
Pagon therefore has the right to designate another director to the board.

Communications License Reauction

         Pegasus PCS Partners, L.P., a partnership owned and controlled by
Marshall W. Pagon, held two personal communications system licenses in Puerto
Rico. In August 1999, Pegasus Development Corporation made an initial investment
of approximately $4.8 million in Pegasus PCS Partners in return for certain of
the limited partnership interests of Pegasus PCS Partners. Pegasus
Communications itself did not meet the qualification criteria for the FCC's
re-auction in which Pegasus PCS Partners acquired one of its two licenses.
Pegasus Satellite's interest in Pegasus PCS Partners was distributed to Pegasus
Communications in connection with the February 2001 holding company
reorganization as a result of the distribution of the stock of Pegasus
Development Corporation from Pegasus Satellite to Pegasus Communications. In
February 2001 and in May 2001, Pegasus PCS Partners sold its licenses. Aggregate
consideration for the sale of the two licenses was approximately $30.0 million.
In February 2002, Pegasus Development granted Mr. Pagon a ten-year option to
purchase its interest in Pegasus PCS Partners for the market value of that
interest, payable in cash or by delivery of marketable securities (including
securities of Pegasus Communications).

CIBC World Markets Corp. and Affiliates

         William P. Phoenix, a director of Pegasus Communications, is a Managing
Director of CIBC World Markets Corp. CIBC World Markets Corp. and its affiliates
have provided various services to Pegasus and its subsidiaries since the
beginning of 1997. CIBC World Markets Corp. has historically performed a number
of services for Pegasus, including serving in the year 2000 and the first
quarter of 2001 as dealer manager and information agent for an exchange offer of
12-3/4% Series A cumulative exchangeable preferred stock of Pegasus Satellite
for Pegasus Communications' 12-3/4% Series A Cumulative Exchangeable Preferred
Stock issued in connection with the holding company reorganization. CIBC World
Markets Corp. received customary commissions for serving in this capacity.

         CIBC World Markets Corp. or its affiliates have also performed the
following services for Pegasus:

         o  acted as dealer manager and information agent for exchange offers of
            Golden Sky Systems notes and Golden Sky DBS notes in exchange for
            Pegasus Satellite notes;

         o  issued letters of credit in connection with bridge financing
            obtained by Pegasus;

         o  provided fairness opinions to Pegasus and/or its affiliates in
            connection with certain intercompany loans and other intercompany
            transactions;

         o  agreed to purchase any and all 12-3/4% Series A cumulative
            exchangeable preferred stock, when issued, of Pegasus Holdings
            Corporation I (renamed Pegasus Communications Corporation) in
            connection with Pegasus' holding company reorganization;

         o  acted as lender in connection with the Pegasus Media &
            Communications credit facility;

         o  acted as one of the initial purchasers in Pegasus Satellite's
            December 2001 Rule 144A offering of $175.0 million in aggregate
            principal amount of 11-1/4% senior notes due 2010. In connection
            with that offering, CIBC World Markets Corp. agreed to provide up to
            $75.0 million in additional bank debt financing to Pegasus
            Satellite, at the election of either CIBC World Markets Corp. or
            Pegasus Satellite, subject to certain conditions and for specific
            purposes. The option is coterminous with the uncommitted $200
            million of additional financing available under Pegasus Media &
            Communications' revolving credit facility, which additional
            financing currently expires on June 30, 2002; and

         o  made a $75.0 million term loan to Pegasus in September 2001,
            expiring one year from the date of closing. The loan was repaid in
            December 2001.

         During 2001, for services rendered, Pegasus or its subsidiaries paid to
CIBC World Markets Corp. or its affiliates an aggregate of $8.4 million in fees.
As of March 6, 2002, Pegasus or its subsidiaries had paid no fees to CIBC World
Markets Corp. or its affiliates for services rendered in 2002. Pegasus
Communications believes that all fees paid to CIBC World Markets Corp. or its
affiliates in connection with the transactions described above were customary.
Pegasus Communications anticipates that it or its subsidiaries may engage the
services of CIBC World Markets Corp. in the future.

Investment in Personalized Media Communications, L.L.C. and Licensing of Patents

         On January 13, 2000, Pegasus made an investment in Personalized Media
Communications, L.L.C. Personalized Media is an advanced communications
technology company that owns an intellectual property portfolio consisting of
seven issued U.S. patents and over 10,000 claims submitted in several hundred
pending U.S. patent applications. A majority of pending claims are based on a
1981 filing date, with the remainder based on a 1987 filing date. Mary C.
Metzger, Chairman of Personalized Media and a member of Pegasus Communications'
board of directors, and John C. Harvey, Managing Member of Personalized Media
and Ms. Metzger's husband, own a majority of and control Personalized Media as
general partners of the Harvey Family Limited Partnership.

         A subsidiary of Personalized Media granted Pegasus Communications an
exclusive license for the distribution of satellite based services using Ku band
BSS frequencies at the 101(degree), 110(degree) and 119(degree) west longitude
orbital locations and Ka-band FSS frequencies at the 99(degree), 101(degree),
103(degree) and 125(degree) west longitude orbital locations, which frequencies
have been licensed by the FCC to affiliates of Hughes Electronics Corporation.
In addition, Personalized Media granted to Pegasus Communications the right to
license on an exclusive basis and on favorable terms the patent portfolio of
Personalized Media in connection with other frequencies that may be licensed to
Pegasus in the future.

         The license granted by Personalized Media's subsidiary provides rights
to all claims covered by Personalized Media's patent portfolio, including
functionality for automating the insertion of programming at a DBS uplink, the
enabling of pay-per-view buying, the authorization of receivers, the assembly of
records of product and service selections made by viewers including the
communication of this information to billing and fulfillment operations, the
customizing of interactive program guide features and functions made by viewers
and the downloading of software to receivers by broadcasters. Pegasus
Communications will pay license fees to Personalized Media of $100,000 per year
for three years.

         Pegasus Communications acquired preferred interests of Personalized
Media for approximately $14.3 million in cash, 400,000 shares of Pegasus
Communications' Class A common stock and warrants to purchase 2.0 million shares
of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock at an exercise price of $45.00
per share and with a term of ten years. After certain periods of time,
Personalized Media may redeem the preferred interests, and Pegasus
Communications may require the redemption of preferred interests, in
consideration for Personalized Media's transfer to Pegasus Communications of
Personalized Media's ownership interest in its wholly owned subsidiary that
holds the exclusive license from Personalized Media for the rights that are
licensed to Pegasus Communications. Pegasus Communications may also be required
to make an additional payment to Personalized Media if certain contingencies
occur that Pegasus Communications believes are unlikely to occur. Because of the
speculative nature of the contingencies, it is not possible to estimate the
amount of any such additional payments, but in some cases it could be material.
As part of the transaction, Personalized Media is entitled to designate one
nominee to serve on Pegasus Communications' board of directors. Mary C. Metzger
is currently serving as Personalized Media's designee.

Other Transactions

         In 1999, Pegasus loaned $199,999 to Nicholas A. Pagon, Pegasus
Communications' former Senior Vice President of Broadcast Operations, bearing
interest at the rate of 6% per annum, with the principal amount due on the fifth
anniversary of the date of the promissory note. Mr. Pagon was required to use
half of the proceeds of the loan to purchase shares of Pegasus Communications'
Class A common stock, and the loan is collateralized by those shares. The
balance of the loan proceeds may be used at Mr. Pagon's discretion. Mr. Pagon
resigned from Pegasus Communications as of March 23, 2001. The loan remains
outstanding, with a balance of approximately $238,000 at December 31, 2001,
consisting of principal and cumulative interest to that date.

         (b)      Reports on Form 8-K.

         On October 17, 2001, Pegasus Communications filed a Current Report on
Form 8-K dated October 12, 2001 reporting that its subsidiaries Pegasus
Satellite Television, Inc. and Golden Sky Systems, Inc. and DirecTV entered into
a new agreement for a revised seamless consumer program. The new agreement
preserves Pegasus' right to provide our customers with video services currently
distributed by DirecTV from certain frequencies, including the right to provide
the premium services HBO, Showtime, Cinemax and The Movie Channel, which are the
subject of separate litigation among DirecTV, Pegasus Satellite and Golden Sky,
as well as sports programming and local TV stations.

         On October 23, 2001, Pegasus Communications filed a current Report on
Form 8-K dated October 22, 2001 reporting that oral argument on a motion for
summary judgment filed by DirecTV on July 2, 2001 in connection with its term
claim was held on October 22, 2001. This claim contends that the length of the
agreement between Pegasus, through its indirect subsidiaries, and the National
Rural Telecommunications Cooperative is tied to the life of only one satellite,
DBS-1. The court issued a written tentative ruling denying DirecTV's motion and
took the motion under submission.

                        Report of Independent Accountants

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders
of Pegasus Communications Corporation:

         In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the
index appearing under Item 14(a)(1) on page F-1, present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Pegasus Communications Corporation and its
subsidiaries (the "Company") at December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period
ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the
financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 14(a)(2)
on page F-1 presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth
therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial
statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the
responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to express an
opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on
our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with
auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, which
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, assessing the accounting principles
used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
                   NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. The Company

General

         On February 22, 2001, Pegasus Communications Corporation ("Pegasus
Communications," and together with its subsidiaries, "the Company") underwent a
corporate reorganization. A new publicly held parent holding company was formed
that assumed the name Pegasus Communications Corporation. The former parent
holding company previously known as Pegasus Communications Corporation was
renamed Pegasus Satellite Communications, Inc. and became a direct subsidiary of
the new parent holding company. The ownership interests and rights of Pegasus
Satellite Communications' common and preferred stockholders were automatically
transferred into common and preferred stocks of Pegasus Communications in the
reorganization. The common and preferred stocks of Pegasus Communications were
identical in all terms, conditions, and amounts outstanding as the common and
preferred stocks of Pegasus Satellite Communications outstanding at the date of
the reorganization. Through a series of concurrent exchange transactions
connected with the reorganization, the 12-3/4% Series preferred stock of Pegasus
Satellite Communications outstanding prior to the reorganization continued to be
outstanding with Pegasus Satellite Communications after the reorganization on
the same terms, conditions, and amounts outstanding as before the
reorganization.

         Pegasus Satellite Communications is a holding company, and its
principal subsidiaries are Pegasus Media & Communications, Inc. and Pegasus
Broadband Communications. Pegasus Media & Communications is a holding company.
Its principal operating subsidiaries are Pegasus Satellite Television, Inc. and
Pegasus Broadcast Television, Inc. Pegasus Satellite Television provides
multichannel direct broadcast satellite ("DBS") services as an independent
provider of DIRECTV(R) ("DIRECTV") audio and video programming in exclusive
territories primarily within rural areas of 41 states. DIRECTV is a service of
DirecTV, Inc. ("DirecTV"). Pegasus Broadcast Television owns and/or programs
broadcast television ("Broadcast") stations affiliated with the Fox Broadcasting
Company, United Paramount Network and The WB Television Network. Pegasus
Broadband Communications conducts the Company's broadband ("Broadband")
business. The primary business of Broadband, which commenced commercial
operation May 2001, is providing two way satellite access to the Internet
through its Pegasus Express service. The Company may offer this service anywhere
in North America that is accessible to the satellite link.

         Pegasus Communications' other principal direct subsidiary is Pegasus
Development Corporation ("Pegasus Development"). Pegasus Development owns and
manages directly, or through investments in others, certain intellectual
property rights and actual and pending licenses. In addition, Pegasus
Development incurs costs associated with corporate initiatives that are in their
infancy of development.

         Pegasus Communications is a subsidiary of Pegasus Communications
Holdings, Inc. Pegasus Communications Holdings, through intermediate affiliates,
is controlled by Marshall W. Pagon, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the
board of directors of Pegasus Communications.

Significant Risks and Uncertainties

         The Company is highly leveraged. At December 31, 2001, the Company had
a combined carrying amount of debt and redeemable preferred stocks outstanding
of $1.8 billion. Because the Company is highly leveraged, it is more vulnerable
to adverse economic and industry conditions. The Company dedicates a substantial
portion of cash to pay amounts associated with debt. In 2001, the Company paid
interest of $113.2 million. In July 2002, the Company is scheduled to begin
paying cash dividends on its 12-3/4% series preferred stock, amounting to $11.7
million in 2002 and $23.5 million annually thereafter. Also in 2002, $10.7
million of preferred stocks is scheduled to become redeemable in cash at the
option of holders, of which $5.7 million was redeemed in March 2002. Using cash
for these payments reduces the availability of funds to the Company for working
capital, capital expenditures, and other activities, and limit the Company's
flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in its business and the
industries in which it operates. The Company's ability to make payments on and
to refinance indebtedness and redeemable preferred stocks outstanding and to
fund planned capital expenditures and other activities will depend on its
ability to generate cash in the future. The Company's ability to generate cash
will depend upon the success of its business strategy, prevailing economic
conditions, regulatory risks, its ability to integrate acquired assets
successfully into its operations, competitive activities by other parties,
equipment strategies, technological developments, level of programming costs,
levels of interest rates and financial, business, and other factors that are
beyond the Company's control. The Company cannot assure that its business will
generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that alternative financing will
be available to it in amounts sufficient to service outstanding debt and
redeemable preferred stocks or to fund other liquidity needs. The Company's
indebtedness and preferred stocks contain numerous covenants that, among other
things, generally limit the ability to incur additional indebtedness and liens,
issue other securities, make certain payments and investments, pay dividends,
transfer cash, dispose of assets, and enter into other transactions, and impose
limitations on the activities of subsidiaries. Failure to make debt payments or
comply with covenants could result in an event of default that, if not cured or
waived, could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         The Company has a history of losses principally due to the substantial
amounts incurred for subscriber acquisition costs, interest expense, and noncash
depreciation and amortization. The Company expects that these amounts will
continue to be substantial. As a result, the Company does not expect to have net
income for the foreseeable future.

Reliance on DirecTV, Inc.

         The Company's principal business is its DBS business which is derived
from providing audio and video programming as an independent DIRECTV provider.
For 2001, 2000, and 1999, revenues for this business were 96%, 94%, and 89%,
respectively, of total consolidated revenues in each respective year, and
operating expenses for this business were 90%, 92%, and 89%, respectively, of
total consolidated operating expenses in each respective year. Total assets of
the DBS business were 85% and 86% of total consolidated assets at December 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively. Because the Company is a distributor of DIRECTV,
the Company may be adversely affected by any material adverse changes in the
assets, financial condition, programming, technological capabilities, or
services of DirecTV. Currently, the Company is in litigation against DirecTV
(see Note 18). Additionally, Hughes Electronics Corporation, which is the parent
company of DirecTV, and EchoStar Communications Corporation, which owns the only
other nationally branded direct broadcast satellite programming service in the
United States, have agreed to merge. At this time, the Company is unable to
predict the effect of its litigation with DirecTV and the merger of EchoStar
Communications and Hughes Electronics, should it occur, on the Company's
financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and future operations.

Overview of the DBS and Broadband Sales and Distribution Channels

         For both the DBS and Broadband businesses, the primary means to obtain
subscribers is through an independent retail network channel. To a lesser
extent, subscribers are also obtained through the Company's inside sales
channel. In both channels, the Company creates and launches the promotions for
its services, equipment, and installations. In addition, the Company specifies
the retail prices for its services and establishes the suggested retail prices
at which dealers sell or provide and install equipment. The Company also obtains
subscribers to its DIRECTV programming through national retail chains selling
DIRECTV under arrangements directly with DirecTV.

         The Company's independent retail network consists of dealer and
distributor relationships. Distributors purchase directly from manufacturers and
maintain in their inventory the equipment needed by subscribers to access the
Company's DIRECTV programming and Internet service. Distributors sell this
equipment to dealers who in turn provide the equipment to subscribers.
Distributors directly charge the dealers for the equipment they sell to them.
Dealers enroll subscribers to the Company's DIRECTV programming and Pegasus
Express, provide them with equipment, and arrange for installation of the
equipment. Dealers directly charge new subscribers for equipment, installation,
and set up at the point of enrollment. The Company also directly enrolls
subscribers, provides equipment to them, and arranges for installation of the
equipment through its inside sales channel. In this channel, the Company charges
new subscribers at the point of enrollment for equipment, installation, and set
up. The amounts charged are deferred as unearned revenues and are recognized as
revenues over the Company's expected life of subscribers of five years. Once
subscribers have been enrolled under either channel, they contact the Company
directly to activate programming and Internet service.

         The Company offers a variety of incentives to its subscribers and to
its distributors and dealers. Incentives to subscribers consist of free or
discounted prices for its DIRECTV programming, equipment needed to access its
DIRECTV programming and Internet service, and installation of equipment that
accesses its DIRECTV programming. The Company pays incentives directly to
dealers and distributors in the form of equipment subsidies, installation
subsidies, and commissions.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         Subscriber acquisition costs are incurred when the Company adds new
subscribers to its DIRECTV programming and Internet service. These costs consist
of the portion of programming costs associated with promotional programming
provided to subscribers; equipment costs and related subsidies paid to
distributors; installation costs and related subsidies paid to dealers; dealer
commissions; advertising and marketing costs; and selling costs. Promotional
programming costs, which are included in programming expense on the statement of
operations and comprehensive loss, are charged to expense when incurred.
Equipment costs and related subsidies and installation costs and related
subsidies, which are included in promotions and incentives on the statement of
operations and comprehensive loss, are charged to expense when the equipment is
delivered and the installation occurs, respectively. Dealer commissions,
advertising and marketing costs, and selling costs, which are included in
advertising and selling on the statement of operations and comprehensive loss,
are charged to expense when incurred.

         Certain subscriber acquisition costs are capitalized or deferred. Under
certain of its subscription plans for DIRECTV programming, the Company retains
or takes title to equipment delivered to subscribers. The equipment costs and
subsidies related to this equipment are capitalized as fixed assets and
depreciated. The Company also has subscription plans for its DIRECTV programming
that contain commitment periods and early termination fees for subscribers.
Direct and incremental subscriber acquisition costs associated with these plans
are deferred in the aggregate not to exceed the amounts of applicable
termination fees, which are less than the contractual revenue over the
commitment period. These costs are amortized over the period of the arrangement
for which early termination fees apply and are charged to amortization expense.
Direct and incremental subscriber acquisition costs consist of equipment costs
and related subsidies not capitalized as fixed assets, installation costs and
related subsidies, and dealer commissions. Direct and incremental subscriber
acquisition costs in excess of termination fee amounts are expensed immediately
and charged to promotion and incentives or advertising and selling, as
applicable, in the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.

         Refer to the following "Summary of Significant Accounting Policies" for
a description of the Company's accounting policies with respect to the
significant matters described above.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

         The financial statements include the accounts of Pegasus Communications
and all of its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis. All intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated. Investments in affiliates in
which the Company has a significant but not a controlling interest are accounted
for under the equity method of accounting. The Company has an investment in
another entity in which it does not have a significant or controlling interest
and, accordingly, this investment is accounted for under the cost method.
Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes.

         Pegasus Communications, as the successor entity to Pegasus Satellite
Communications, succeeds to the financial information filed by Pegasus Satellite
Communications for the year ended December 31, 2000, as contained herein.

         The corporate reorganization discussed in Note 1 was accounted for as a
recapitalization in which the historical basis of assets and liabilities
existing at the date of the reorganization did not change in the reorganization.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

         The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles in the United States of America requires the
Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of
revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities and the disclosure of contingencies.
Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates relate
to useful lives and recoverability of the Company's long lived assets, including
investments the Company has in other entities, intangible assets, valuation
allowances associated with deferred income tax assets, average subscriber life
associated with recognition of unearned revenues, and amounts associated with
barter transactions, NRTC patronage, allowance for doubtful accounts, and
litigation contingencies.

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.

NRTC Patronage Capital Distributions

         The Company is an affiliate of the National Rural Telecommunications
Cooperative ("NRTC"), which is a tax exempt organization that operates on a
nonprofit basis. The NRTC is a cooperative organization whose members and
affiliates are engaged in the distribution of telecommunications and other
services in predominantly rural areas of the United States. Throughout each
year, the NRTC bills its members and affiliates the costs incurred by the NRTC
under its agreement with DirecTV, certain other costs incurred by the NRTC
relating to associated DBS projects, and margin on the costs of providing DBS
services pursuant to the NRTC member agreement for marketing and distribution of
DBS services. The most notable service that the NRTC provides to the Company is
programming related to the DIRECTV programming the Company provides. The Company
records as expenses the amounts it pays to the NRTC. Members and affiliates that
participate in the NRTC's projects may be eligible to receive an allocation of
the NRTC's net savings (generally, amounts collected from NRTC members and
affiliates in excess of the NRTC's costs) in the form of a patronage
distribution through the NRTC's patronage capital distribution program.
Generally, each patron who does business with the NRTC receives an annual
distribution composed of both patronage capital certificates and cash. The
patronage capital certificates represent equity interests in the NRTC. The
amount of the distribution is generally based on the ratio of business a patron
conducts with the NRTC during a given fiscal year of the NRTC times the NRTC's
net savings available for patronage distribution for that year. Throughout each
year, the Company accrues a receivable from the NRTC based on its best estimate
of its share of the patronage distribution for that year, with an offsetting
reduction to the expenses that were recorded by the Company for the payments
made to the NRTC during the year. The Company adjusts its accrual of the
estimated patronage distribution in the year that the distribution is received
and, accordingly, adjusts the related expenses in and for the year the
distribution is received. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had accrued
in accounts receivable - other $31.0 million and $13.3 million, respectively,
for its estimate of its share of patronage for the respective years. Based on
past experience, the Company expects that a majority of the patronage capital
distribution for 2001 to be made in 2002 will be tendered by the NRTC in the
form of patronage capital certificates. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the
Company's investment in the NRTC, which is included in investments in others on
the balance sheet, was $28.6 million and $11.1 million, respectively. The
Company has no commitments to fund the NRTC's operations or acquire additional
equity interests in the NRTC.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Inventory

         Inventory consists of equipment that enables access to the Company's
DIRECTV programming, equipment that enables two way satellite access to the
Internet through Pegasus Express, and supplies used in the installation of
equipment. Equipment is purchased from manufacturers in a completed state ready
for its intended use. Such equipment primarily consists of antennas that receive
satellite signals, receivers that decode signals to permit access to the
Company's DIRECTV programming and that also permit communications to authorize
on demand viewing of certain programming, and modems that decode signals to
permit two way communication with the Internet. Inventory is stated at the lower
of cost or market on a first in, first out basis.

         Equipment that the Company delivers to subscribers is removed from
inventory at its carrying amount and charged to subscriber acquisition costs
when the equipment is delivered. Under certain of its subscription plans for
DIRECTV programming, the Company retains title to equipment delivered to
subscribers. In these cases, the inventory carrying amounts of this equipment
are capitalized as fixed assets and the equipment is depreciated over its useful
life of three years. Other inventory items are removed from inventory and
charged to the appropriate expense when used.

Investment in Marketable Securities

         The Company has an investment in the common stock of another company.
The Company acquired this common stock in one transaction. The Company considers
this investment to be available for sale and it is carried at its fair market
value based on the quoted market price of the common stock held. Accordingly,
unrealized gain or loss for changes in the fair market value of the investment
is recorded in common stockholders' equity as accumulated other comprehensive
income or loss as appropriate, and is presented as other comprehensive gain or
loss, as appropriate, on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss.
The fair market value of this investment at December 31, 2001 was $4.9 million,
which is included in other noncurrent assets on the balance sheet.

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 and losses are
included in results of operations. Expenditures for repairs and maintenance are
charged to expense when incurred. Expenditures for major renewals and
betterments that extend the useful lives of the related assets are capitalized
and depreciated. Depreciation is computed for financial reporting purposes using
the straight line method based upon the estimated useful lives of the assets.
DBS equipment delivered to subscribers that comes from the Company's inventory
and to which the Company retains title is capitalized at its inventory carrying
amount. DBS equipment delivered to subscribers by authorized dealers of the
Company to which the Company takes title is capitalized at the amount of the
subsidy paid by the Company for the equipment. The Company has a process in
place to recover the equipment or the cost thereof from subscribers should they
terminate their subscription.

Intangible Assets

         Intangible assets are stated at cost. The cost and related accumulated
amortization of assets sold, retired, or otherwise disposed of are removed from
the respective accounts and any resulting gains and losses are included in
results of operations. Amortization of intangible assets is computed for
financial reporting purposes using the straight line method based upon the
estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over
the lesser of the lease term or life of the related asset to which the
improvement was made. Deferred subscriber acquisition costs are amortized over
the length of time of the commitment period associated with the subscription
plans under which these costs are deferred.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Long Lived Assets

         The Company's intangible and fixed assets are reviewed for impairment
whenever events or circumstances provide evidence that suggest the carrying
amounts may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when
estimated undiscounted future cash flows expected to result from the use of the
asset and its eventual disposition is less than its carrying value. The
impairment, if any, would be measured as the excess of the carrying amount over
the asset's fair value. To date, no such impairments have occurred.

Deferred Financing Costs

         Financing costs incurred in obtaining long term financing are deferred
and amortized over the term of the related financing. The Company uses the
straight line method to amortize these costs. Accumulated amortization was $15.6
million and $11.2 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Broadcast Sale/Leaseback Transaction

         The Company retains a continuing involvement in Broadcast assets that
had been sold and leased back. This sale/leaseback is accounted for under the
financing method in which the Company continues to record and depreciate the
related assets and recognizes a finance obligation representing a deferral of
the gain on the sale that would have otherwise been recognized at the date of
the sale. Under the finance method, lease payments made on the assets leased
back are allocated between a reduction of the finance obligation and interest as
appropriate. As a result of the amount of interest associated with the finance
obligation relative to the amount of the lease payments, the payments have been,
and are expected to continue to be, applied to interest expense. The accounting
of the sale/leaseback transaction as a financing will continue until the
Company's continuing involvement in the related assets ceases.

Derivative Financial Instruments

         Derivative financial instruments are utilized by the Company to reduce
interest rate risk. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments for
trading or speculative purposes. The Company uses interest rate swap and cap
agreements to reduce the impact of interest rate increases on its variable rate
debt. The interest rate swaps involve the exchange of variable for fixed rate
interest payments without the exchange or the payment of the underlying notional
amounts. The effects of the swaps are recorded as adjustments to the Company's
interest expense on an accrual basis. Under the interest rate caps, the Company
receives interest from the other parties to the agreements when market interest
rates specified in the cap agreements exceed the contracted interest cap rates.
Premiums paid by the Company to enter into interest rate cap agreements are
amortized to interest expense.

         Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS 133"), as amended by SFAS
No. 138, became effective for the Company on January 1, 2001. SFAS 133
establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments and
hedging activities. The statement requires that all derivatives are to be
recognized as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and the instruments are to be measured at fair value. The accounting
for changes in the fair value of a derivative depends on the intended use of the
derivative and the resulting designation. The fair values of interest rate swaps
and caps held by the Company are determined by the financial institutions that
are party to the contracts. The fair values are measured by the amount that the
Company or the other parties to the contracts would pay if the contracts were
terminated at the measurement date. No cash is transferred in determining the
termination values. The Company did not designate these instruments as hedges
upon adopting SFAS 133. Accordingly, the changes in the fair values of these
instruments are recognized in earnings in other nonoperating income or expense
in the period of change. The net cumulative effect on January 1, 2001 of
adopting SFAS 133 was not significant.

Revenues

         Principal revenue of the DBS business is earned by providing the
Company's DIRECTV programming on a subscription or on demand basis. Standard
subscriptions are recognized as revenue monthly at the amount earned and billed
based on the level of programming content subscribed to during the month.
Promotional programming provided to subscribers at discounted prices is
recognized as revenue monthly at the promotional amount earned and billed. No
revenue is recognized for promotional programming that is provided free of
charge. Revenue for on demand viewing is recognized at the amount billed in the
month when the programming is viewed and earned. Fees that the Company charges
new subscribers for set up upon initiation of service are deferred as unearned
revenue and are recognized as revenue over the Company's expected subscriber
life of five years. Amounts charged for DBS equipment rented is recognized as
revenue monthly at the amount earned and billed during the month.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         Principal revenue of the Broadband business is earned by providing two
way satellite access to the Internet through Pegasus Express on a subscription
basis. This revenue is recognized monthly at the amount billed to subscribers
for service subscribed to and earned during the month.

         Equipment used by subscribers for the Company's DIRECTV programming and
Internet service is an integral component of these services. Accordingly,
amounts that the Company charges for equipment sold and installations are
deferred as unearned revenue and are recognized as revenue over the Company's
expected life for subscribers of five years. No revenue is recognized for
equipment and installations provided free of charge.

         Principal revenue of the Broadcast business is earned by selling
advertising airtime. This revenue is recognized when the advertising spots are
aired.

Subscriber Acquisition Costs

         Subscriber acquisition costs are incurred when the Company adds new
subscribers to its DIRECTV programming and Internet service. These costs consist
of the portion of programming costs associated with promotional programming
provided to subscribers; equipment costs and related subsidies paid to
distributors; installation costs and related subsidies paid to dealers; dealer
commissions; advertising and marketing costs; and selling costs. Promotional
programming costs, which are included in programming expense on the statements
of operations and comprehensive loss, are charged to expense when incurred.
Promotional programming amounted to $2.3 million, $5.6 million and $14.5 million
in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Equipment costs and related subsidies and
installation costs and related subsidies, which are included in promotions and
incentives on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss, are charged
to expense when the equipment is delivered and the installation occurs,
respectively. Dealer commissions, advertising and marketing costs, and selling
costs, which are included in advertising and selling on the statements of
operations and comprehensive loss, are charged to expense when incurred.
Subscriber acquisition costs included in the accompanying consolidated
statements of operations and comprehensive loss were $152.4 million, $170.0
million, and $117.8 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

         Under certain of its subscription plans for DIRECTV programming, the
Company retains or takes title to equipment delivered to subscribers. The
equipment costs and subsidies related to this equipment are capitalized as fixed
assets and depreciated. Capitalized DBS equipment was $20.8 million and $12.2
million in 2001 and 2000, respectively. No DBS equipment was capitalized during
1999. The Company also has subscription plans for its DIRECTV programming that
contain commitment periods and early termination fees for subscribers. Direct
and incremental subscriber acquisition costs associated with these plans are
deferred in the aggregate not to exceed the amounts of applicable termination
fees. These costs are amortized over the period of the arrangement for which
early termination fees apply and are charged to amortization expense. Direct and
incremental subscriber acquisition costs consist of equipment costs and related
subsidies not capitalized as fixed assets, installation costs and related
subsidies, and dealer commissions. Direct and incremental subscriber acquisition
costs in excess of termination fee amounts are expensed immediately and charged
to promotion and incentives or advertising and selling, as applicable, in the
statements of operations and comprehensive loss. Deferred subscriber acquisition
costs amounted to $19.4 million in 2001. Amortization of deferred subscriber
acquisition costs for the year ended December 31, 2001 was $4.2 million. No
subscriber acquisition costs were deferred during 2000 or 1999.

         Total subscriber acquisition costs expensed, capitalized, and deferred
were $192.6 million, $182.2 million, and $117.8 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively. Total advertising costs incurred were approximately $18.0 million,
$21.9 million, and $8.7 million for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

         Other Subscriber Related Expenses

         Other subscriber related expenses include infrastructure costs billed
to the Company by the NRTC, expenses associated with call centers, bad debt
expense, franchise fees, and other expenses that vary with changes in the number
of subscribers served. Franchise fees represent payments made to the NRTC in
accordance with the NRTC member agreement for marketing and distribution of DBS
services. The fees are calculated based on certain revenues earned by the
Company.

Broadcast Barter Transactions

         The Company's Broadcast stations obtain programming for viewing from
the networks they are affiliated with, as well as from independent producers and
syndicators. Broadcast barter transactions represent the exchange of advertising
time for programming, except those involving the exchange of advertising time
for network programming. We do not report revenue or expenses for barter
transactions involving the exchange of advertising time for network programming.
Barter transactions are reported at the fair market value of the advertising
time relinquished. Barter programming revenue and the related programming
expense are recognized at the time that the advertisement airtime is broadcast.
For 2001, 2000, and 1999, $6.6 million, $7.1 million, and $7.6 million,
respectively, related to barter transactions were included in revenue and
programming expense of other businesses in the statements of operations and
comprehensive loss.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Deferred Income Taxes

         The Company accounts for deferred income taxes utilizing the asset and
liability approach, whereby deferred income tax assets and liabilities are
recorded for the tax effect of differences between the financial statement
carrying values and tax bases of assets and liabilities. Deferred income taxes
are measured using enacted tax rates and laws that will be in effect when the
underlying assets or liabilities are expected to be received or settled. A
valuation allowance is recorded for deferred income taxes where it appears more
likely than not that the Company will not be able to recover the deferred income
tax asset.

Stock Based Compensation

         The Company accounts for stock options and restricted stock issued
using the intrinsic value method. The plans under which these are issued are
fixed award plans. Compensation expense with respect to stock options is
recognized for the excess, if any, of the fair value of the stock underlying the
option at the date of grant of the option over the exercise price of the option.
Compensation expense with respect to restricted stock is the fair value of the
stock at the date of award since the recipient does not pay anything to receive
the stock.

Accretion on Notes Issued at a Discount

         Notes issued at a discount from their full face value were initially
recorded at the amount of the discounted cash proceeds received. The difference
between the carrying amount and the full face value of the notes is accreted to
interest expense and to the carrying amount of the notes. The accretion is over
the discount period that ends with the date that cash interest begins to accrue,
at which time the carrying amount of the notes will equal their full face value.

Dividends on Redeemable Cumulative Preferred Stock

         The carrying amount of the Company's mandatorily redeemable cumulative
preferred stock is periodically increased by dividends not currently declared or
paid but which will be payable under the redemption or liquidation features. The
increase in carrying amount is effected by charges to additional paid in
capital, in the absence of retained earnings. Accrued dividends that are
subsequently declared and payable in cash are deducted from the carrying amount
of the preferred stock and classified as dividends payable in current
liabilities. Accrued dividends that are subsequently declared and payable in
either like kind shares or shares of common stock remain in the carrying amount
of the preferred stock until paid.

Computation of Per Common Share Amounts

         Basic per share amounts are computed by dividing net income or loss
applicable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares
outstanding during the periods reported. Dividends and accretion on preferred
stock and deemed dividends associated with preferred stock issuances,
conversions, and redemptions adjust, as appropriate, net income or loss and
results from continuing operations to arrive at the amount applicable to common
shares (see Note 6). Such amounts for 2001, 2000, and 1999 were as follows (in
thousands):

         The weighted average number of common shares outstanding is based upon
Class A, Class B, and Nonvoting common stocks outstanding during the periods
reported. Diluted per common share amounts give effect to potential common
shares outstanding during the periods reported and related adjustments to the
net amount applicable to common shares and other reportable items. Basic and
diluted per common and related weighted average number of common share amounts
are the same within each period reported because potential common shares were
antidilutive and excluded from the computation due to the Company's loss from
continuing operations. The number of potential common shares excluded from the
computation was 12.5 million, 11.0 million, and 3.6 million shares in 2001,
2000, and 1999, respectively.

Concentration of Credit Risk

         Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to
concentrations of credit risk consist principally of trade receivables, cash,
and cash equivalents. Concentrations of credit risk with respect to trade
receivables are limited due to the large numbers comprising the Company's
subscriber and customer base and their dispersion across different businesses
and geographic regions. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had no other
significant concentrations of credit risk.

New Accounting Pronouncements

         SFAS No. 141 "Business Combinations" addresses financial accounting and
reporting for business combinations. One of the principal requirements of this
statement is that all business combinations initiated or for which the date of
acquisition is after June 30, 2001 are to be accounted for using only the
purchase method. The Company has not completed a business combination since June
30, 2001. Another principal provision of this statement requires companies to
reassess the classification of carrying amounts for goodwill and intangible
assets apart from goodwill recognized in acquisitions in which the acquisition
date was before July 1, 2001 to determine their appropriate classification in
accordance with the statement. For the Company, this provision became effective
on January 1, 2002, and will be applied by the Company in the first quarter
2002. The Company has not yet finalized its assessment of the classification of
the carrying amounts of goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill, but
based on its preliminary assessment, the Company believes that there will be no
material impact on it.

         SFAS No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" addresses financial
accounting and reporting: 1) at the date of acquisition of goodwill and
intangible assets apart from goodwill acquired other than in a business
combination, and 2) all goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill
subsequent to their acquisition. A principal requirement of this statement is to
determine the useful lives of intangible assets and amortize or not amortize the
intangible assets accordingly. Intangible assets apart from goodwill with finite
lives are to be amortized over their useful lives to their residual value, if
any, whereas goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill with indefinite
lives are not to be amortized. Another principal requirement of this statement
relates to impairment of goodwill and intangible assets apart from goodwill.
Goodwill is to be separately stated from intangible assets apart from goodwill
on the statement of financial position. This statement in its entirety became
effective for the Company on January 1, 2002. Certain provisions of the
statement were effective July 1, 2001, but did not significantly impact the
Company because it has not acquired any goodwill or significant intangible
assets apart from goodwill since July 1, 2001. Certain provisions of the
statement are to be applied by the Company by the end of the first quarter 2002.
Other provisions of this statement have transition periods that for the Company
end June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, with retroactive application of the
effects of the transition periods to the Company's first quarter 2002. The
Company has not yet completed its analyses associated with the impacts of this
statement, and does not have sufficient information at this time to determine
whether or not the impacts will be material to its financial position or results
of operations.

         SFAS No. 143 "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" addresses
financial accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the
retirement of tangible long lived assets and the associated asset retirement
costs. This statement is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal
years beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company is studying the provisions of
this statement and has not yet determined the impacts, if any, that this
statement may have on it.

         SFAS No. 144 "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived
Assets" addresses financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or
disposal of long lived assets. The provisions of this statement became effective
for the Company on January 1, 2002. Many of the provisions of this statement are
the same as or similar to provisions of previously existing accounting standards
that this statement now supersedes. The Company has not yet finalized its
analysis of this statement. However, based on its preliminary assessment of the
statement and the belief that there are relatively no new requirements imposed
by the statement from requirements previously in effect for the Company under
prior accounting standards, the Company believes that there will be no material
impact on it.

5. Common Stock and Undistributed Earnings of 50% or Less Owned Entities

         At December 31, 2001, Pegasus Communications had three classes of
common stock: Class A, Class B, and Nonvoting. Holders of Class A and Class B
are entitled to one vote per share and ten votes per share, respectively. Shares
authorized are 250.0 million for Class A, 30.0 million for Class B, and 200.0
million for Nonvoting. As indicated in Note 1, all shares of Class A and B and
Nonvoting common stocks of Pegasus Satellite Communications designated, issued,
and outstanding at the date of the reorganization and related additional paid in
capital became identical shares of Class A and B and Nonvoting common stocks and
related additional paid in capital of Pegasus Communications in the
reorganization.

         Shares of Class A amounting to 576,394 were issued in January 2002 as
payment of dividends on the Company's Series C, D, and E preferred stocks that
were payable in that month, as described in Note 6.

         Pegasus Communications' ability to pay dividends on its common stock is
subject to certain limitations imposed by preferred stock and indebtedness of
the Company. The amount within accumulated deficit that represents undistributed
earnings (losses) of 50% or less owned entities accounted for under the equity
method is $13.7 million and $(633,000) at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively.

6.       Redeemable Preferred Stocks

         At December 31, 2001, Pegasus Communications had the following
preferred stock series outstanding: Series B junior convertible participating
("Series B"); 6-1/2% Series C convertible ("Series C"); Series D junior
convertible participating ("Series D"); and Series E junior convertible
participating ("Series E"). At December 31, 2001, Pegasus Satellite
Communications had 12-3/4% cumulative exchangeable preferred stock ("12-3/4%
Series") outstanding. In the corporate reorganization, all shares of Series B,
Series C, Series D, and Series E of Pegasus Satellite Communications designated,
issued, and outstanding at the date of the reorganization and related additional
paid in capital and accrued dividends became identical shares and related
additional paid in capital and accrued dividends of Series B, Series C, Series
D, and Series E of Pegasus Communications. Through a series of concurrent
exchange transactions connected with the reorganization, the 12-3/4% Series
outstanding prior to the reorganization continued to be outstanding with Pegasus
Satellite Communications after the reorganization on the same terms, conditions,
and amounts outstanding as before the reorganization.

         Redeemable preferred stocks consisted of the following at December 31,
2001 and 2000 (dollars in thousands):

12-3/4% Series

         Each whole share of the 12-3/4% Series has a liquidation preference of
$1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Dividends of 12-3/4% are
payable semiannually on January 1 and July 1, and are payable on a cumulative
basis when in arrears. Up to and including January 1, 2002, at the option of
Pegasus Satellite Communications, dividends may be paid in cash or by the
issuance of additional shares of its own series. Thereafter, the dividends are
payable in cash. Subject to certain conditions, the 12-3/4% Series is
exchangeable in whole at the option of Pegasus Satellite Communications for
12-3/4% senior subordinated exchange notes due 2007. The exchange notes would
contain substantially the same redemption provisions, restrictions, and other
terms as the 12-3/4% Series. No such exchanges have taken place. At Pegasus
Satellite Communications' option, on and after January 1, 2002 Pegasus Satellite
Communications may redeem the 12-3/4% Series in whole or part at redemption
prices specified in the certificate of designation for this series. On January
1, 2007, Pegasus Satellite Communications is scheduled to redeem all of the
12-3/4% Series outstanding at that date at a redemption price equal to the
liquidation preference per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. The 12-3/4%
Series ranks senior to all outstanding classes or series of capital stock with
respect to dividend rights and rights on liquidation.

         The increase in the number of shares outstanding and the carrying
amount of the 12-3/4% Series from December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2001 was due
to dividends of $20.1 million on the series paid in 2001 with its own shares.
The carrying amount was also increased during 2001 due to accretion of $95,000
of unamortized discount recognized when the series was issued and an increase of
$1.3 million in dividends accrued at December 31, 2001 compared to December 31,
2000. In January 2002, a dividend of $11.0 million was paid with 11,026 shares
of its own series. The liquidation value of the 12-3/4% Series at December 31,
2001 was approximately $184.0 million, and included $475,000 of remaining
unamortized discount recognized when the series was issued and $11.0 million in
accrued dividends.

Series B

         All 5,707 shares of Series B outstanding at December 31, 2001 were
redeemed by holders in March 2002 at a redemption price of $1,000 per share,
plus accrued and unpaid dividends to the date of redemption of approximately
$10,000. Cash dividends paid in 2001 for Series B were $57,000, based on the
dividend rate per share for the series of $10.00.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Series C Convertible

         Series C is considered to be redeemable because there may be situations
in which redemption of the series may be required that are not in the control of
Pegasus Communications. However, the certificate of designation does not provide
for any mandatory redemption requirements or dates and does not state any
specific redemptions available at the option of holders. Each whole share of
Series C has a liquidation preference equal to its stated value of $100 per
share plus accrued and unpaid dividends, and is convertible at any time at the
option of the holder into approximately 1.57 shares of Pegasus Communications'
Class A common stock. This conversion ratio is subject to adjustment under
certain circumstances. Holders of shares of Series C are entitled to receive,
when, as, and if declared by the board of directors, dividends at a rate of
6-1/2% payable quarterly on January 31, April 30, July 31, and October 31 of
each year. Dividends are payable, at the option of Pegasus Communications, in
cash, shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock, or a combination
thereof. Dividends on Series C are payable on a cumulative basis when in
arrears. In the event of liquidation, Series C ranks junior to the 12-3/4%
Series, senior to Series B, Series D, and Series E and senior to all classes of
Pegasus Communications' common stock. Pegasus Communications at its option may
redeem shares in whole or part of Series C any time on and after February 1,
2003, and under certain circumstances through January 31, 2003, at premiums
specified in the certificate of designation for this series. Holders of Series C
have no voting rights other than those granted by law, except that holders
voting as a class are entitled to elect two directors to the board of directors
in the event dividends payable on the series are in arrears for six quarterly
periods until such arrearage is paid in full and concerning matters that affect
the terms and ranking of the series or amendments to Pegasus Communications'
charter that may adversely affect their rights.

         In November 2001, 349,700 shares of Series C amounting to approximately
$35.0 million were converted into 1,157,815 shares of Class A common stock with
a fair market value of $41.0 million. The rate of conversion used in this
conversion of approximately 3.31 shares exceeded the conversion rate specified
in the certificate of designation for the series. As a result, $6.0 million of
the consideration paid in the conversion was an inducement in the conversion and
recorded as a deemed dividend. This deemed dividend was included in determining
the net loss applicable to common shares in 2001.

         The decrease in the number of shares outstanding from December 31, 2000
to December 31, 2001 was due to the conversion in November 2001. The decrease in
the carrying amount from December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2001 was the net of a
reduction of approximately $35.0 million for the November 2001 conversion, an
increase of $2.9 million for accrued and unpaid dividends at December 31, 2001,
and an increase of $1.1 million for the reclassification into additional paid in
capital of issue costs associated with the shares converted. The shares redeemed
were cancelled and reverted to authorized but undesignated shares of preferred
stock of Pegasus Communications. Dividends of $19.5 million were paid in 2001
with 1,400,300 shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock. In
January 2002, a dividend of $4.3 million was paid with 489,256 shares of Pegasus
Communications' Class A common stock.

Series D and Series E

         Each share of Series D and Series E has a liquidation preference equal
to its stated value of $1,000 per share plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Each
share of Series D and Series E is convertible at any time at the option of the
holder into approximately 87.11 shares and 16.04 shares, respectively, of
Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock, subject to adjustment under
certain circumstances. The certificate of designation for Series D was amended
in December 2001 to change the number of shares of common stock that the series
is convertible into from that of approximately 19.54. Additionally, each share
of Series D and Series E is redeemable at the option of holders at a price of
$1,000 plus accrued and unpaid dividends. Series D may be redeemed in the amount
of 6,125 shares beginning February 1, 2003, and any remaining outstanding shares
may be redeemed on February 1, 2004. These redemption dates were amended in
December 2001 from 2002 and 2003, respectively. Series E may be redeemed in the
amount of 5,000 shares on or after February 25, 2002, and any remaining
outstanding shares may be redeemed on and after February 25, 2003. Pegasus
Communications may at its option redeem shares of Series D or Series E at any
time at a price of $1,000 per share. The preceding redemption prices are in
addition to any accrued and unpaid dividends. Holders of shares of Series D and
Series E are entitled to receive, when, as, and if declared by the board of
directors, dividends of 4% payable annually on January 1. Dividends on Series D
and Series E are payable, at the option of Pegasus Communications, in cash or
shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock. Dividends on Series D
and Series E are payable on a cumulative basis when in arrears. In the event of
liquidation, Series D and Series E rank, to the extent of their respective
liquidation preferences, junior to the 12-3/4% Series and Series C preferred
stocks, senior to all classes of Pegasus Communications' common stock and on a
parity with each other. Upon liquidation, holders of Series D and Series E are
entitled to participate with holders of Pegasus Communications' common stock and
other participating stock, if any, in the remaining assets of the Company after
certain other distributions have been satisfied. Generally, Series D and Series
E have no voting rights other than those granted by law.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         As permitted by the certificate of designation for Series D, 10,000
shares of Series D were redeemed in an amount of $10.0 million in December 2001.
In lieu of a cash payment for the redemption called for by the certificate of
designation, the redemption amount was paid with 999,001 shares of Pegasus
Communications' Class A common stock with an aggregate fair market value of
$10.0 million. As a result of the redemption, $1.4 million of the beneficial
conversion factor previously recognized for this series was recovered as a
negative deemed dividend. This deemed dividend was included in determining the
net loss applicable to common shares in 2001.

         The decrease in the number of shares outstanding and carrying amount of
Series D from December 31, 2000 to December 31, 2001 was due to the redemption
in December 2001. The Series D shares redeemed were cancelled and reverted to
authorized but undesignated shares of preferred stock of Pegasus Communications.
Dividends of $1.2 million and $372,000 for Series D and Series E, respectively,
were paid in 2001 with 64,160 and 12,445, respectively, shares of Pegasus
Communications' Class A common stock. In January 2002, dividends of $500,000 and
$400,000 for Series D and Series E, respectively, were paid with an aggregate of
87,138 shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock. The liquidation
value at December 31, 2001 for Series D and series E was $13.0 million and $10.4
million, respectively, which included accrued dividends of $500,000 and
$400,000, respectively.

All Series of Redeemable Preferred Stocks

         Pegasus Communications' preferred stock imposes certain limitations on
the payment of dividends on its common stock. Redemptions, excluding those for
Series B, that are mandatory or at the election of holders, for amounts
outstanding at December 31, 2001 were $5.0 million in 2002, $11.1 million in
2003, $6.4 million in 2004, and approximately $184.0 million in the aggregate
thereafter. No redemptions are currently scheduled in 2005 and 2006. Redemptions
for Series B were excluded because this series was redeemed in March 2002. The
redemption amounts assume that shares outstanding at December 31, 2001,
exclusive of shares for Series B, remain outstanding thereafter, that
redemptions fully occur in the year that shares first become available for
redemption, that there are no accrued and unpaid dividends in arrears, and that
there is no remaining balance of unamortized discount. In addition, the amount
thereafter includes dividends accrued at December 31, 2001 for the 12-3/4%
Series that were paid in January 2002 with shares of its series. All shares
eligible to be redeemed through December 31, 2001 were redeemed.

         On the respective dates that Series B and Series D were issued in 2000,
the market value of the Class A common stock they were convertible into exceeded
the conversion strike price for each series. As a result, an aggregate of $5.5
million of the proceeds from the issuances of these series was allocated to
these beneficial conversion features as a deemed dividend in 2000. These deemed
dividends were included in determining the net loss applicable to common shares
in 2000.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

Long Term Debt of Pegasus Media & Communications

         The 12-1/2% senior subordinated notes due July 2005 are unconditionally
guaranteed on an unsecured senior subordinated basis, jointly and severally by
specified subsidiaries of Pegasus Media & Communications. The notes are general
unsecured obligations that are subordinated to other senior indebtedness of the
company such as, among other things, its credit agreement. Pegasus Media &
Communications presently has the option to redeem the notes at prices specified
in the indenture for these notes.

         Pegasus Media & Communications' has a credit agreement that initially
provided for a $225.0 million senior revolving credit facility that expires in
October 2004 and a $275.0 million senior term loan facility that expires in
April 2005. The agreement also contains an uncommitted facility that gives the
company the option to seek $200.0 million in incremental term loans through June
30, 2002, as extended in 2001. Amounts borrowed under the agreement are
collateralized by substantially all of the assets of Pegasus Media &
Communications and its subsidiaries. The agreement contains certain financial
covenants. The borrowing commitment under the revolving facility automatically
and permanently reduces quarterly over the term of the facility that began on
March 31, 2001. At December 31, 2001, the commitment was $202.5 million.
Principal amounts outstanding in excess of the reduced commitment are to be
repaid on each commitment reduction date. Amounts repaid under the revolving
facility may be reborrowed, subject to the available borrowing commitment.
Availability under the revolving facility, net of outstanding stand by letters
of credit of $63.2 million, was $59.1 million at December 31, 2001. Generally,
letters of credit are not acted upon. Principal outstanding under the term loan
facility is payable quarterly in increasing increments over the term of the
facility that began on March 31, 2001. Amounts repaid under the term loan
facility may not be reborrowed. Margins on revolver base rates range from 1% to
2%, and margins on revolver LIBOR rates range from 2% to 3%, both of which are
determined by the level of a ratio computation specified in the agreement.
Margins on term loans are 2.5% for base rates and 3.5% for LIBOR rates. Interest
on outstanding principal borrowed under base rates is due and payable quarterly
and interest on outstanding principal borrowed under LIBOR rates is due and
payable the earlier of the end of the contracted interest rate period or three
months. Unused amounts under the revolving facility are subject to a commitment
fee at either .5% or .75% based on the aggregate of borrowings outstanding and
letters of credit issued under the facility. The weighted average variable rates
of interest, including applicable margins, on amounts outstanding at December
31, 2001 were approximately 6.25% for the revolving facility and 5.44% for the
term facility. The weighted average variable rates of interest, including
applicable margins, on amounts outstanding at December 31, 2000 were
approximately 10.11% for the revolving facility and 10.19% for the term
facility. The $80.0 million outstanding under the revolving credit facility at
December 31, 2001 was repaid in January 2002.

Long Term Debt of Pegasus Satellite Communications

         In the corporate reorganization discussed in Note 1, Pegasus Satellite
Communications continued to be obligated under debt securities and agreements
after the reorganization that were outstanding at the date of the
reorganization, which were the same that existed at December 31, 2000.

         Pegasus Satellite Communications' 9-5/8% senior notes due October 2005,
9-3/4% senior notes due December 2006, and 12-1/2% senior notes due August 2007
are subordinated to all liabilities of the company's subsidiaries and are on
parity with other senior indebtedness of Pegasus Satellite Communications.
Pegasus Satellite Communications presently has the option to redeem the 9-5/8%
notes, and can redeem at its option the 9-3/4% notes and 12-1/2% notes beginning
on December 1, 2002 and August 1, 2003, respectively, each at prices specified
in the indenture for each respective note.

          In the second quarter 2001, Pegasus Satellite Communications
concurrently issued $195.0 million principal amount of 12-3/8% senior notes due
August 2006 and issued $193.1 million maturity value of 13-1/2% senior
subordinated discount notes due March 2007. These notes were issued,
respectively, in exchange for all of the outstanding $195.0 million principal
amount of 12-3/8% senior subordinated notes due August 2006 of its subsidiary
Golden Sky Systems and all of the outstanding $193.1 million maturity value of
13-1/2% senior discount notes due March 2007 of its subsidiary Golden Sky DBS.
The Golden Sky Systems and Golden Sky DBS notes exchanged were cancelled. The
13-1/2% notes issued were recorded on the date of issuance at a discounted
amount of $134.9 million, which equaled the carrying amount of the notes they
were exchanged for. The discount of $58.2 million is being amortized to interest
expense over the term of the new notes. Consent fees of $1.6 million incurred in
the exchanges were recorded as deferred financing costs. Other costs incurred in
the exchanges, which principally consisted of dealer manager, accounting and
legal fees, were expensed as incurred. Unamortized deferred financing costs
associated with each of the Golden Sky Systems and Golden Sky DBS notes,
including the consent fees incurred in the exchanges, were transferred to the
respective Pegasus Satellite Communications notes they were exchanged for, in an
aggregate amount of $9.5 million. The unamortized deferred financing costs
transferred are being amortized over the respective remaining terms of the
Pegasus Satellite Communications notes to which they apply.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

          The 12-3/8% notes are unsecured senior obligations. They rank senior
to subordinated indebtedness of the company and rank equally in right of payment
with its other senior indebtedness. The 13-1/2% notes are unsecured senior
subordinated obligations and are subordinated in right of payment to all
existing and future senior indebtedness of the company. The discount on the
13-1/2% notes will be fully amortized at March 1, 2004. Cash interest on the
13-1/2% notes begins accruing on March 1, 2004. Both notes rank junior to the
indebtedness of the company's subsidiaries, even their subordinated
indebtedness. Pegasus Satellite Communication has the option to redeem any or
all of the 12-3/8% notes commencing August 1, 2003 and the 13-1/2% notes
commencing March 1, 2004, each at prices specified in their respective
indentures. Subject to certain exceptions described in the indenture, Pegasus
Satellite Communications must offer to repurchase either notes if certain assets
of the company or its restricted subsidiaries are sold or if changes in control
specified in the indentures occur with respect to the company, its subsidiaries,
or Pegasus Communications.

          In September 2001, Pegasus Satellite Communications entered into a 364
day credit agreement under which it borrowed all of the $75.0 million available
under the agreement. The amounts outstanding thereunder were repaid in December
2001 with a portion of the proceeds from the issuance of the 11-1/4% senior
notes and the credit agreement was terminated.

          In December 2001, Pegasus Satellite Communications issued $175.0
million principal amount of 11-1/4% senior notes due January 2010. These notes
are unsecured senior obligations. They rank senior to subordinated indebtedness
of the company and rank equally in right of payment with its other senior
indebtedness. The notes rank junior to the indebtedness of the company's
subsidiaries, even their subordinated indebtedness. Pegasus Satellite
Communication has the option to redeem 35% of the notes prior to January 15,
2005 at a price of 111.25% of their face amount, plus accrued interest, with the
net proceeds of certain equity offerings. Otherwise, the company can redeem any
or all of the notes anytime on and after January 15, 2006 at prices specified in
the indenture for these notes. Subject to certain exceptions described in the
indenture, Pegasus Satellite Communications must offer to repurchase the notes
if certain assets of the company or its restricted subsidiaries are sold or if
changes in control specified in the indenture occur with respect to the company,
its restricted subsidiaries, or Pegasus Communications.

Additional Information on Long Term Debt

         The indentures of the notes for both Pegasus Media & Communications and
Pegasus Satellite Communications and Pegasus Media & Communications' credit
agreement described above generally limit the ability of the companies within
Pegasus Communications' consolidated group in varying degrees to, among other
things, sell assets, incur additional indebtedness and create liens, issue or
sell other securities, make certain payments, including dividends and
investments, transfer cash, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, and
merge or consolidate.

          In June 2001, all principal amounts outstanding under the term loan
and revolving credit facilities of the Golden Sky Systems' credit agreement were
repaid and the credit agreement was terminated. The mortgage payable in 2010 is
on the Company's corporate headquarters and is being amortized over 25 years
with a balloon payment to satisfy the remaining mortgage balance in 2010.

         Unamortized balances of deferred financing costs associated with notes
repaid and credit facilities terminated during the respective periods reported
were written off and reported as extraordinary losses from extinguishments of
debt in the period that the associated borrowings were repaid or agreement
terminated, except as otherwise indicated above. Aggregate commitment fees
incurred by the Company under all credit facilities outstanding in the
respective periods were $999,000 in 2001 and $1.6 million in 2000. Commitment
fees were not significant in 1999.

$21.4 million, $3.2 million, and $9,000, respectively. See Note 18 for
information concerning these litigations.

10. Loss on Impairment of Marketable Securities

         In the third quarter 2001, the Company determined that its sole
investment in marketable securities, which are included in other noncurrent
assets on the balance sheet, had incurred an other than temporary decline in
market value. Accordingly, the Company wrote down the cost basis in this
investment to its then fair market value and charged earnings in the amount of
$34.2 million for the impairment loss realized. In connection with this write
down, the Company made a reclassification adjustment to other comprehensive
income (loss) of $21.2 million, net of income tax benefit of $13.0 million, to
remove all of the net unrealized losses on this investment that had been
accumulated at the date of the write down. The amount of the reclassification
adjustment was based on specific identification of the cost of the common stock
held, as all of the common stock held had been acquired in one transaction.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

     For 2001, 2000, and 1999, the Company paid cash interest of $113.2 million,
$94.1 million, and $69.4 million, respectively. The Company paid no federal
income taxes in 2001, 2000, and 1999. The amount paid for state income taxes was
less than $1.0 million in each of 2001, 2000, and 1999.

13. Acquisitions

         In 1999, the Company acquired 15 independent DIRECTV providers along
with the rights to provide DIRECTV programming in certain rural areas of the
United States and related assets that were accounted for under the purchase
method. Total consideration was $79.5 million, consisting of $64.6 million in
cash, 25,000 shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock valued at
$550,000, warrants to purchase a total of 50,000 shares of Class A common stock
valued at $814,000, $6.5 million in promissory notes, $6.7 million in accrued
expenses, and $365,000 in assumed net liabilities.

         Effective March 31, 1999, the Company purchased a cable system serving
Aguadilla, Puerto Rico and neighboring communities for $42.1 million in cash.
This system was sold in September 2000.

         On May 5, 2000, the Company acquired Golden Sky Holdings in a
transaction accounted for as a purchase. Golden Sky Holdings through its
subsidiaries holds the rights to provide DIRECTV programming in various rural
areas of 24 states. The stockholders of Golden Sky Holdings exchanged all of
their outstanding capital stock for approximately 12.2 million shares of Pegasus
Communications' Class A common stock valued at $578.6 million and options to
purchase approximately 724,000 shares of Class A common stock valued at $33.2
million. As a consequence of this exchange, Golden Sky Holdings became a direct
wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The total consideration for the
acquisition was $1.2 billion. The merger consideration included $293.7 million
of Golden Sky Holdings consolidated net liabilities, including a deferred income
tax asset of $89.3 million principally for Golden Sky Holdings' cumulative
consolidated income tax net operating loss carryforwards existing at the
acquisition date. Also included in the consideration was a deferred income tax
liability of $421.3 million principally for the excess of the book basis over
the income tax basis of the amount of DBS rights assets existing at the
acquisition date. Of the total acquisition cost, $1.0 billion was allocated to
the DBS rights assets, net of $94.1 million for the effect of the Company's
consolidated deferred income tax valuation allowances no longer required in
association with the merger.

         During 2000, the Company completed 19 other acquisitions of independent
providers of DIRECTV. These acquisitions principally consisted of the rights to
provide DIRECTV programming in various rural areas of the United States. The
total consideration for these acquisitions of $232.6 million consisted of cash
of $131.6 million, 905,000 shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common
stock valued at $40.8 million, 22,500 shares of Pegasus communications' Series D
preferred stock valued at $22.5 million, 10,000 shares of Pegasus
Communications' Series E preferred stock valued at $10.0 million, warrants to
purchase 4,000 shares of Class A common stock valued at $192,000, a deferred tax
liability incurred of $24.4 million, $200,000 in promissory notes and $2.9
million in assumed net liabilities. These acquisitions were accounted for by the
purchase method, wherein substantially all of the total consideration for these
acquisitions was allocated to DBS rights.

         Minority interest at December 31, 2001 and 2000 represents a
partnership interest in Golden Sky Systems.

14. Discontinued Operations

         Discontinued operations on the statements of operations and
comprehensive loss represent Pegasus Media & Communications' cable operations.
The Company completely exited the cable business with the sale of the Puerto
Rico operations, as discussed below.

         In September 2000, Pegasus Media & Communications sold to a third party
its interests in the assets of its entire cable operations in Puerto Rico. The
sale price was $170.0 million in cash, and the net cash proceeds of the sale
were $164.5 million. The gain on the sale was $59.4 million, net of currently
payable Puerto Rico capital gains and withholding taxes of $28.0 million. Net
revenues from discontinued operations were $18.1 million and $21.2 million 2000
and 1999, respectively.

</TABLE>
         The fair values of the Company's publicly held notes and preferred
stock, with a combined fair value of $915.1 million and $1.1 billion at December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, were determined based on quoted market prices
for each individual security. The carrying value of amounts outstanding under
the Company's revolving credit and term loan facilities aggregating $352.3
million and $382.0 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively,
approximates fair value because the outstanding amounts are subject to short
term variable rates of interest and the rates in effect at December 31, 2001 and
2000 approximate the market rates available at each date. Due to the proximity
of its issuance to December 31, 2001, the carrying amount of the Company's
unregistered 11-1/4% senior notes due 2010 of $175.0 million approximates its
fair value. Valuation of the Company's nonpublicly held preferred stocks
included in the table was not significant. The carrying values of other
financial instruments included in the table equal or approximate their fair
values and were not significant.

         The Company is party to interest rate swap and interest rate cap
contracts to manage its interest rate exposure. These instruments were entered
into as a condition of the Company's credit agreement. The principal object of
these contracts is to minimize the risks and/or costs associated with the
Company's variable rate debt incurred under the credit agreement. The notional
amounts of the swaps and caps are used to measure interest to be paid or
received. However, no cash is transferred with respect to the notional amounts.
Net cash paid or received on the instruments is recognized as an adjustment to
interest expense over the related market interest rate setting period. The
parties to these swaps and caps are major financial institutions. The Company is
exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by these institutions,
however, the Company does not anticipate their nonperformance.

         The Company has two interest rate swaps, each with a different
financial institution. Both swaps terminate March 2003. One contract is for a
notional amount of $35.0 million and has a fixed rate of interest of 7.195%. The
other contract is for a notional amount of $37.1 million and has a fixed rate of
interest of 7.18%. The variable rate of interest under both contracts is marked
to the 6 month LIBOR rate in effect at the beginning of each 6 month resetting
period. Under the interest rate swaps, variable interest is exchanged for fixed
interest. The Company owes interest to the contracting institutions when the
specified market rate is below the contracted fixed rate and receives interest
from them when the specified market rate is above the contracted fixed rate. The
Company has two interest rate caps, each with a different financial institution.
Both caps terminate March 2003. One contract has a notional amount of
approximately $33.9 million and the other has a notional amount of $34.0
million. The cap rate under each contract is 9.0% and payment is determined
quarterly based on the 3 month LIBOR rate in effect at the beginning of each 6
month resetting period. Under the interest rate caps, the Company receives
interest from the contracting institutions when the specified market rate is
above the cap rate. The Company adjusts the swaps and caps to fair values at
each quarter. The aggregate fair value of the swaps and caps at December 31,
2001, estimated based on the amount that the Company would receive or pay to
terminate the contracts on that date, was a liability of $4.2 million. As a
result of market LIBOR rates available to the Company for the swaps being lower
than the fixed rates it pays on the swaps, the Company paid net additional
interest of approximately $1.0 million in each of 2001 and 2000 with respect to
the interest rate instruments.

17. Employee Benefit Plans

         Pegasus Communications has employee benefit plans under which stock
options are issuable to eligible plan participants to purchase shares of the
company's Class A common stock. These plans are discussed below.

1996 Stock Option Plan

         This plan provides for the granting of nonqualified and qualified
options to purchase a maximum of 6.0 million shares. Participants in the plan
are eligible employees, executive officers, and nonemployee directors of the
Company. The maximum number of shares that an individual may be granted options
for over the term of the plan is 2.0 million. The plan and individual maximums
are subject to adjustment to reflect stock dividends, stock splits,
recapitalizations, and similar changes in the capitalization of Pegasus
Communications. The plan terminates in September 2006. The plan provides that
the exercise price of options granted is no less than the fair value of the
common stock underlying the options at the date the options are granted. Options
granted have a term no greater than 10 years from the date of grant. Options
vest and become exercisable in accordance with a schedule determined at the time
the option is granted.

         Employees hired as full time receive one time grants of 100 options.
Employees hired as part time receive one time grants of 50 options, and may
receive additional one time grants of 50 options upon becoming full time. These
grants are generally exercisable after one year of employment. Exercisable
options may be exercised any time up to the expiration or termination of the
option. Outstanding options become exercisable immediately in the event of a
change in control.

Restricted Stock Plan

         This plan provides for the granting of various types of restricted
stock awards. For certain types of restricted stock awards, recipients may elect
to receive stock options for the purchase of Pegasus Communications' Class A
commons stock. The maximum number of shares that may be granted in the aggregate
in stock and under options is 1.5 million. Participants in the plan are eligible
employees and executive officers of the Company. The maximum number of shares
that may be granted for options that an individual may elect to receive in any
one year under the plan is 100,000. The maximum number of shares and options
available annually is subject to adjustment to reflect stock dividends, stock
splits, recapitalizations, and similar changes in the capitalization of Pegasus
Communications. The plan terminates in September 2006. Restricted stock received
under the plan generally vests based on years of service, except for special
recognition awards that are fully vested on the date of grant. Recipients of
restricted stock awards do not pay for any portion of the stock received. The
plan provides that the exercise price of options granted is no less than the
fair value of the common stock underlying the options at the date the options
are granted. Options granted have a term no greater than 10 years from the date
of grant. Options vest and become exercisable ratably from two to four years
based upon a participant's years of service with the Company and are fully
vested for participants that have at least four years of service with the
Company at the date of grant. At December 31, 2001 and 2000, 429,687 shares and
386,834 shares, respectively, of Pegasus Communications' restricted Class A
common stock had been granted under the plan. The expense for the restricted
stock issued under the plan was $1.2 million in 2001, and less than $1.0 million
in each of 2000 and 1999. The weighted average grant date fair value of shares
issued under the plan was $28.46, $43.92, and $9.05 in 2001, 2000, and 1999,
respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

         In 2001, the Company adopted the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The plan
encourages stock ownership in the Company by all eligible employees through
options to purchase the Company's Class A common stock. The maximum number of
shares that may be issued under options under the plan is 3.0 million, subject
to adjustment under certain circumstances specified in the plan. Eligible
employees of the Company are those who have completed at least 30 days of
employment with the Company. No otherwise eligible employee may be granted an
option if such employee, immediately before or after the option is granted, owns
stock possessing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or
value of all classes of stock of the Company, including stock which the employee
may purchase under outstanding options. Eligible employees may contribute up to
10% of their base compensation through payroll deductions during any calendar
quarter period to purchase newly issued shares of the Company under options of
the plan. Under existing federal tax laws, each employee is limited in any
calendar year to purchasing no more than $25,000 in aggregate fair market value
of shares purchased under all outstanding stock purchase plans of the Company.
Options to purchase shares are granted on the first business day of the first
month of each calendar quarter period, and options are exercised on the last
business day of the last month of each calendar quarter period. Option terms are
three months ending on the last day of the last month of each calendar quarter
period. The exercise price of options is 85% of the lesser of the per share fair
market value of Class A common stock on the grant date or exercise date.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         If the Company had used the fair value method of valuing its stock
options, including stock issuable under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan,
estimated pro forma net losses for 2001, 2000, and 1999 would have been $336.4
million, $207.4 million, and $205.2 million, respectively. Estimated pro forma
net losses per basic and diluted common share for 2001, 2000, and 1999 would
have been $5.98, $4.16, and $5.44, respectively. The estimated weighted average
grant date fair value of options granted would have been $4.25, $30.68, and
$13.37 for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. The fair value of options was
estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following
weighted average assumptions for 2001, 2000, and 1999:

                                                        2001     2000     1999

         In 2000, the Company recognized $3.5 million as compensation expense
with respect to stock options.

401(k) Plans

         The Company has two 401(k) plans. The plan that covers employees in the
United States is the principal plan, and the following disclosures pertain to
this plan. A plan for employees in Puerto Rico is not significant, as it covers
a small number of employees. Substantially all Company employees that have
completed at least one full calendar month of service with the Company are
eligible to participate. Participants may make annual salary deferral
contributions of 2% to 15%, subject to dollar limitations imposed by existing
tax laws. Company contributions to the plan are allocable to each participant's
account. Company contributions are made in the form of Pegasus Communications'
Class A common stock, or in cash used to purchase Pegasus Communications' Class
A common stock. The Company has authorized and reserved for issuance up to
410,000 shares of Class A common stock in connection with the plan. Company
contributions to the plan are subject to limitations under applicable laws and
regulations. All employee contributions to the plan are fully vested at all
times and all Company contributions, if any, vest ratably from two to four years
of service, except that Company contributions are fully vested for participants
that have at least four years of service with the Company at the date of the
contribution. The expense for these plans was $1.6 million, $1.4 million, and
$1.2 million in 2001, 2000, and 1999.

18. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Legal Matters

         DirecTV Litigation
         ------------------

         National Rural Telecommunications Cooperative

         Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems, which are
subsidiaries of the Company, are affiliates of the NRTC that participate through
agreements in the NRTC's direct broadcast satellite program.

         On June 3, 1999, the NRTC filed a lawsuit in federal court against
DirecTV, Inc. seeking a court order to enforce the NRTC's contractual rights to
obtain from DirecTV certain premium programming formerly distributed by United
States Satellite Broadcasting Company, Inc. for exclusive distribution by the
NRTC's members and affiliates in their rural markets. The NRTC also sought a
temporary restraining order preventing DirecTV from marketing the premium
programming in such markets and requiring DirecTV to provide the NRTC with the
premium programming for exclusive distribution in those areas. The court, in an
order dated June 17, 1999, denied the NRTC a preliminary injunction on such
matters, without deciding the underlying claims.

         On July 22, 1999, DirecTV responded to the NRTC's continuing lawsuit by
rejecting the NRTC's claims to exclusive distribution rights and by filing a
counterclaim seeking judicial clarification of certain provisions of DirecTV 's
contract with the NRTC. As part of the counterclaim, DirecTV is seeking a
declaratory judgment that the term of the NRTC's agreement with DirecTV is
measured only by the orbital life of DBS-1, the first DIRECTV satellite
launched, and not by the orbital lives of the other DIRECTV satellites at the
101(degree)W orbital location. According to DirecTV, DBS-1 suffered a failure of
its primary control processor in July 1998 and since that time has been
operating normally using a spare control processor. While the NRTC has a right
of first refusal to receive certain services from any successor DIRECTV
satellite, the scope and terms of this right of first refusal are also being
disputed in the litigation, as discussed below. This right is not expressly
provided for in the Company's agreements with the NRTC. If DirecTV were to
prevail on its counterclaim, any failure of DBS-1 could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's DIRECTV rights.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         On September 9, 1999, the NRTC filed a response to DirecTV's
counterclaim contesting DirecTV's interpretations of the end of term and right
of first refusal provisions. On December 29, 1999, DirecTV filed a motion for
partial summary judgment. The motion sought a court order that the NRTC's right
of first refusal, effective at the termination of DirecTV's contract with the
NRTC, does not include programming services and is limited to 20 program
channels of transponder capacity. On January 31, 2001, the court issued an order
denying DirecTV's motion in its entirety for partial summary judgment relating
to the right of first refusal.

         On August 26, 1999, the NRTC filed a separate lawsuit in federal court
against DirecTV claiming that DirecTV had failed to provide to the NRTC its
share of launch fees and other benefits that DirecTV and its affiliates have
received relating to programming and other services. On November 15, 1999, the
court granted a motion by DirecTV and dismissed the portion of this lawsuit
asserting tort claims, but left in place the remaining claims asserted by the
NRTC. NRTC and DirecTV have also filed indemnity claims against one another,
which pertain to NRTC's alleged obligation to indemnify DirecTV for costs
incurred in the various lawsuits described herein.

         Both of the NRTC's lawsuits against DirecTV have been consolidated for
discovery and pretrial purposes. A trial date of December 2, 2002 has been set,
although at this time it is not clear which of the lawsuits will be tried on
that date.

         The NRTC and DirecTV have also filed indemnity claims against one
another that pertain to the alleged obligation, if any, of the NRTC to indemnify
DirecTV for costs incurred in various lawsuits described herein. These claims
have been severed from the other claims in the case and will be tried
separately. Each side has filed a summary judgment motion relating to the
claims.

         Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems

         On January 10, 2000, Pegasus Satellite Television and another one of
the Company's subsidiaries Golden Sky Systems filed a class action lawsuit in
federal court in Los Angeles against DirecTV as representatives of a proposed
class that would include all members and affiliates of the NRTC that are
distributors of DIRECTV. Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems are
affiliates of the NRTC.

         The complaint contained causes of action for various torts, common
counts and declaratory relief based on DirecTV's failure to provide the NRTC
with certain premium programming, and on DirecTV's position with respect to
launch fees and other benefits, term and right of first refusal. The complaint
sought monetary damages and a court order regarding the rights of the NRTC and
its members and affiliates.

         On February 10, 2000, Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky
Systems filed an amended complaint which added new tort claims against DirecTV
for interference with Pegasus Satellite Television's and Golden Sky Systems'
relationships with manufacturers, distributors and dealers of direct broadcast
satellite equipment. The class action allegations Pegasus Satellite Television
and Golden Sky Systems previously filed were withdrawn to allow a new class
action to be filed on behalf of the members and affiliates of the NRTC. The new
class action was filed on February 29, 2000.

         On December 10, 2000, the court rejected in its entirety DirecTV's
motion to dismiss certain of the claims asserted by Pegasus Satellite
Television, Golden Sky Systems, and the putative class. On January 31, 2001, the
court denied in its entirety a motion for summary judgment filed by DirecTV
relating to the right of first refusal. The court also certified the plaintiff's
class on December 28, 2000.

         On March 9, 2001, DirecTV filed a counterclaim against Pegasus
Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems, as well as the class members. In
the counterclaim, DirecTV seeks two claims for relief: (i) a declaratory
judgement that Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems have no right
of first refusal in their agreements with the NRTC to have DirecTV provide any
services after the expiration of the term of these agreements, and (ii) an order
that DBS-1 is the satellite (and the only satellite) that measures the term of
Pegasus Satellite Television's and Golden Sky Systems' agreements with the NRTC.
Pegasus Satellite Television's and Golden Sky Systems' motion to dismiss the
counterclaims were denied on May 8, 2001, and on June 4, 2001, Pegasus Satellite
Television, Golden Sky Systems, and the class filed a response denying DirecTV's
counterclaims. On July 2, 2001, DirecTV filed under seal a summary judgment
motion on its term claim, but the court denied the motion on October 31, 2001.

                       PEGASUS COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION
             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         On May 21, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television, Golden Sky Systems, and
the class members moved to amend their complaints to add certain additional
claims against DirecTV relating to, among other things, DirecTV's provision of
advanced services. The court granted this motion on June 19, 2001. DirecTV filed
its answer to the second amended complaint on July 20, 2001.

         On June 22, 2001, DirecTV brought suit against Pegasus Satellite
Television and Golden Sky Systems in Los Angeles County Superior Court for
breach of contract and common counts. The lawsuit pertains to the seamless
marketing agreement dated August 9, 2000, as amended, between DirecTV and
Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems. On July 13, 2001, Pegasus
Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems terminated the seamless marketing
agreement. On July 16, 2001, Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems
filed a cross complaint against DirecTV alleging, among other things, that (i)
DirecTV has breached the seamless marketing agreement, and (ii) DirecTV has
engaged in unlawful and/or unfair business practices, as defined in Section
17200, et seq. of California Business and Professions Code. On July 19, 2001,
Pegasus Satellite Television and Golden Sky Systems removed the case from state
to federal court. DirecTV moved to remand the case back to state court but, on
September 19, 2001, the court denied DirecTV's motion.

         All five lawsuits discussed above, including both lawsuits brought by
the NRTC, the class action, and Pegasus Satellite Television's and Golden Sky
Systems' lawsuit, are pending before the same judge. The court has set a trial
date of December 2, 2002, although, as noted above, it is not clear whether all
the lawsuits will be tried together.

         Patent Infringement Litigation
         ------------------------------

         On December 4, 2000, Pegasus Development and Personalized Media
Communications, L.L.C., filed a patent infringement lawsuit in the United States
District Court of Delaware against DirecTV, Hughes Electronics Corporation,
Thomson Consumer Electronics and Philips Electronics North America Corporation.
Pegasus Development and Personalized Media are seeking injunctive relief and
monetary damages for the defendants' alleged patent infringement and
unauthorized manufacture, use, sale, offer to sell and importation of products,
services, and systems that fall within the scope of Personalized Media's
portfolio of patented media and communications technologies, of which Pegasus
Development is an exclusive licensee within a field of use.

         The technologies covered by Pegasus Development's exclusive license
include services distributed to consumers using certain Ku band BSS frequencies
and Ka band frequencies, including frequencies licensed to affiliates of Hughes
Electronics and used by DirecTV to provide services to its subscribers. The
Company is unable to predict the possible effects of this litigation on its
relationship with DirecTV.

         Each of the defendants has filed answers to the patent infringement
lawsuit denying all claims made by Pegasus Development and Personalized Media.
In addition, each of the defendants other than Phillips Electronics has
requested a declaratory judgment seeking to have the patents Pegasus Development
licensed from Personalized Media declared not infringed, invalid and
unenforceable. Phillips Electronics has requested a declaratory judgment to have
the patents declared not infringed and invalid. DirecTV has also filed a
counterclaim against Pegasus Development alleging unfair competition under the
Federal Lanham Act. In a separate counterclaim, DirecTV has alleged that both
Pegasus Development's and Personalized Media's patent infringement lawsuit
constitutes "abuse of process."

         In December 2001, one of the Company's subsidiaries, along with other
parties, was served with a complaint in another patent infringement lawsuit by
Broadcast Innovation, L.L.C. The nature of the plaintiff's claims is not clear
from the complaint. The Company is in the process of evaluating the matter in
order to determine whether it is material to its business.

         Other Legal Matters
         -------------------

         In addition to the matters discussed above, from time to time the
Company is involved with claims that arise in the normal course of the Company's
business. In the Company's opinion, the ultimate liability with respect to these
claims will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's consolidated
operations, cash flows, or financial position.

Commitments

         Call Center Services
         --------------------

         The Company has an agreement with a provider of integrated marketing,
information, and transaction services to provide customer relationship
management services. The initial term of the agreement ends in December 2004,
and is subject to automatic renewal for successive three year terms unless
either party provides notice of termination. The fees that the Company must pay
vary based on the types of service provided, performance criteria, and other
costs incurred by the provider. The minimum annual fees that the Company must
pay over the remaining initial term of this agreement are $20.3 million in each
year 2002 through 2004. Expense recognized under this agreement was $27.9
million, $22.3 million, and $1.7 million 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

         Communications Services
         -----------------------

         The Company has an agreement with a provider of telephone services that
commenced in May 2000 and expires May 2003. The fees that the Company must pay
vary based on usage type and volume. The Company must pay a minimum annual fee
of $7.0 million over the term of the agreement. Expense recognized under this
agreement was $9.2 million in 2001 and $6.3 million in 2000.

         Purchase Option
         ---------------

         In January 2002, the Company exercised its option to purchase for $10.7
million an office building it has been renting, and is in the process of
negotiating the purchase agreement.

19. Related Party Transactions

         The Company has an arrangement with W.W. Keen Butcher, certain entities
controlled by him (the "KB Companies") and the owner of a minority interest in
one of the KB Companies under which the Company agrees to provide and maintain
cash collateral for up to $8.0 million in principal amount of bank loans to Mr.
Butcher and the minority owner. Mr. Butcher is the stepfather of Marshall W.
Pagon, the Company's Chairman of the board of Directors and Chief Executive
Officer. Mr. Butcher and the minority owner must lend or contribute the proceeds
of those bank loans to one or more of the KB Companies for the acquisition of
television broadcast stations to be operated by the Company pursuant to local
marketing agreements. Pursuant to this arrangement, at December 31, 2001 and
2000, the Company had provided collateral of $7.6 million and $4.9 million,
respectively, which is recorded as restricted cash within other current assets.

         William P. Phoenix, a director of Pegasus Communications since 1998, is
a managing director of CIBC World Markets Corporation ("CIBC"), a financial
services firm. CIBC and its affiliates have provided various services to the
Company over the last three years. Total fees and expenses incurred by the
Company with respect to CIBC were $8.4 million, $4.4 million, and $940,000 in
2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively.

         At December 31, 2001, the Company has a loan outstanding to Nicholas
Pagon, a former executive of the Company and the brother of Marshall W. Pagon,
amounting to approximately $238,000 for principal and interest accrued on the
loan. The loan matures in January 2004 and bears interest at 6% per annum.
Principal and any accrued and unpaid interest are due at maturity. The loan is
collateralized by shares of Pegasus Communications' Class A common stock.

         Pegasus Development has a limited partnership interest in Pegasus PCS
Partners, LP ("PCS") that is accounted for under the equity method. The general
partner of PCS is an entity beneficially controlled by Marshall Pagon. Pegasus
Development's investment in PCS was $18.5 million and $4.2 million at December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Pegasus Development's risk of loss associated
with its investment in PCS is limited to the amount of its investment in PCS.
Pegasus Development's ownership interest in PCS' net assets is equal to its
investment in PCS. Pegasus Development's share of undistributed results of PCS
varies depending on a variety of factors specified in the operating agreement
between Pegasus Development and PCS. For all of 2001, 2000, and 1999, Pegasus
Development's share was 61.5%. Pegasus Development's share of undistributed
results of operations included in the Company's results from continuing
operations were $14.3 million in 2001, $(422,000) in 2000, and $(201,000) in
1999. The income recorded in 2001 was due to a gain on certain licenses of PCS
that it sold in 2001.

             NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued)

         Pegasus Development has an investment in Personalized Media
Communications, L.L.C. ("Personalized Media") that was made in 2000. Subsequent
to Pegasus Development making this investment, Personalized Media spun off to
its owner members, including Pegasus Development, portions of its operations in
the form of three separate independent entities. Pegasus Development accounts
for its investments in Personalized Media and each of the spun off entities
under the equity method. Mary Metzger, a member of Pegasus Communications' board
of directors, has a controlling interest in each of these entities. Pegasus
Development's aggregate investment in all four entities was approximately $112.0
million at both December 31, 2001 and 2000. Pegasus Development's risk of loss
associated with its investments in these entities is generally limited to the
aggregate amount of its investment in them. Pegasus Development's aggregate
ownership interest in the net assets of all of these entities is equal to its
aggregate investment in them. A subsidiary of Personalized Media granted to
Pegasus Development an exclusive field of use license with respect to
Personalized Media's patent portfolio concerning the distribution of satellite
services from specified orbital locations. Pegasus Development pays an annual
fee for this license of $100,000 through 2003. In addition, Pegasus Development
contributed $151,000 and $321,000 in 2001 and 2000, respectively, to
Personalized Media for certain expenses incurred by Personalized Media. Pegasus
Development's share of undistributed results of operations of these entities
varies depending on a variety of factors specified in the operating agreement
between Pegasus Development and the respective entities. For all of 2001 and
2000, Pegasus Development's share was 1.0% in each entity. In both 2001 and
2000, the entities had a net aggregate loss from operations, and Pegasus
Development's share of these losses included in the Company's results from
continuing operations was $9,000 and $10,000, respectively.

20. Industry Segments

         At December 31, 2001, the Company's only reportable segment was its DBS
business. DBS provides multichannel digital broadcast satellite audio and video
programming of DIRECTV service in rural areas of the United States on a
subscription basis. Audio and video programming provided 93% of the total DBS
revenues in each of 2001, 2000, and 1999. Performance of the DBS business is
evaluated based on premarketing cash flow and EBITDA. Premarketing cash flow of
the DBS business is DBS revenues less DBS programming, technical, and general
and administrative expenses. EBITDA of the DBS business is its premarketing cash
flow less marketing and selling expenses, which are also known as subscriber
acquisition costs. Premarketing cash flow and EBITDA are not, and should not be
considered, alternatives to income from operations, net income, net cash
provided by operating activities, or any other measure for determining the
Company's operating performance or liquidity, as determined under generally
accepted accounting principles. Although EBITDA is a common measure used by
other companies, the Company's calculation of EBITDA may not be comparable with
that of others. Information on DBS' revenue and results of operations is as
presented on the statements of operations and comprehensive loss. DBS derived
all of its revenues from external customers for each period reported. Capital
expenditures for the DBS business were approximately $37.0 million, $19.1
million, and $3.6 million for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Capital
expenditures for all other operations were $9.1 million, $27.3 million, and
$15.8 million for 2001, 2000, and 1999, respectively. Identifiable total assets
for DBS were $2.0 billion and $2.2 billion at December 31, 2001 and 2000,
respectively. Identifiable total assets for all other operations were $358.7
million and $375.1 million at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.
