Safe Harbor Statement

     This Form 10-K contains statements which, to the extent they are not
historical fact (such as when we describe what we "believe," "expect" or
"anticipate" will occur), constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the
Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Safe Harbor Acts"). All
forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties. The forward-looking
statements in this Form 10-K are intended to be subject to the safe harbor
protection provided by the Safe Harbor Acts.

     Risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to vary materially
from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements included in this Form
10-K include, but are not limited to, industry-based factors such as the level
of competition in the business music industry, competitive pricing,
concentrations in and dependence on satellite delivery capabilities, rapid
technological changes, the impact of legislation and regulation, as well as
factors more specific to the Company such as the substantial leverage and debt
service requirements, restrictions imposed by the Company's debt facilities, the
Company's history of net losses, the Company's ability to identify, complete and
integrate acquisitions, the Company's future capital requirements, the Company's
dependence on license agreements, and risks associated with economic conditions
generally.

                                     PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

     Muzak LLC ("Muzak") is the leading provider of business music programming
in the United States based on market share. Muzak is a wholly owned subsidiary
of Muzak Holdings LLC (the "Company") previously known as ACN Holdings, LLC. We
refer to Muzak Holdings and its subsidiaries collectively as the "Company". We
believe that, together with our franchisees, we have a market share of
approximately 60% of the estimated number of U.S. business locations currently
subscribing to business music programming. Together with our franchisees, we
have nationwide coverage and served an installed base of approximately 335,000
client locations as of December 31, 2001.

     Our two core products are Audio Architecture(SM) and Voice(SM). We provide
our products to numerous types of businesses including specialty retailers,
restaurants, department stores, supermarkets, drug stores, financial
institutions, hotels, health and fitness centers, business offices,
manufacturing facilities and medical centers, among others. Our clients
typically enter into a non-cancelable five-year contract that renews
automatically for at least one additional five-year term unless specifically
terminated at the initial contract expiration date. Our average length of
service per Audio Architecture client is approximately 12 years. We believe that
our clients use our products because they recognize them as a key element in
establishing their desired business environment, in promoting their corporate
identities and in strengthening their brand images at a low monthly cost.

     We provide our products and services domestically through our integrated,
nationwide network of owned operations and franchisees. We believe our
nationwide network is the largest in the industry and provides us with a key
competitive advantage in effectively marketing and servicing clients ranging
from local accounts with single or multiple locations to national accounts with
significant geographic presences. In 2001, 97% of our revenues were generated by
our owned operations and the remaining 3% were generated from fees from our
franchisees and other sources.

     In March 1999, Muzak Limited Partnership, the franchisor (which we refer to
as Old Muzak), was merged into Audio Communications Network LLC, in a
transaction with total consideration (including debt repayment) of $274.2
million. In connection with the merger, Audio Communications Network LLC changed
its name to Muzak LLC.

     Since the merger in March 1999, we have acquired 11 in-market competitors,
including 4 business music providers and 7 music and marketing on-hold and/or
in-store messaging providers, and 11 franchises, for an aggregate cash purchase
price of $87.6 million. We continually evaluate opportunities to acquire our
franchises, music contract portfolios, and complementary music and marketing
on-hold and in-store messaging businesses.

Financing Developments

     As Muzak has significant growth opportunities, both from an organic and an
acquisition perspective, we are continually evaluating capital market conditions
to determine the accessibility to such capital markets. If we are successful in
obtaining such financing, the likely use of proceeds would include items such as
funding of growth in new client locations, potential acquisitions, and repayment
of certain existing indebtedness.

     In March 2002, Muzak obtained a waiver for violating the capital
expenditures covenant and entered into an amendment under its Senior Credit
Facility. Muzak increased its aggregate revolving loan commitment under the
Senior Credit Facility by $20.0 million, for a total commitment of $55.0 million
and amended certain of its financial covenants for 2002 and 2003. We expect that
this increased commitment and amended financial covenants will provide Muzak
with enhanced financial flexibility and with sufficient liquidity to fund its
business plan for the forseeable future.

     Additionally, in March 2002 the Company borrowed $10.0 million from MEM
Holdings LLC through junior subordinated unsecured notes (the "sponsor notes"),
the proceeds of which were used to repay outstanding revolving loan balances.

     In May 2001, $27.0 million of sponsor notes borrowed from MEM Holdings LLC,
as well as $6.7 million of accrued interest was converted into Class A units of
the Company. MEM Holdings owns 64.2% of the voting interests in the Company as
of December 31, 2001. ABRY Broadcast Partners III and ABRY Broadcast Partners II
are the beneficial owners of MEM Holdings.

Products

     Audio Architecture is business music programming designed to enhance a
client's brand image. Our in-house staff of audio architects analyze a variety
of music to develop and maintain 60 core music programs in 10 genres. Programs
include current top-of-the-charts hits to jazz, classic rock, urban, country,
Latin, classical music and others. Our audio architects change our music
programs on a daily basis, incorporating newly released original artists' music
recordings and drawing from our extensive music library. In designing our music
programs, our audio architects use proprietary computer software that allows
them to efficiently access the extensive library, avoid repeated songs and
manage tempo and music variety to provide clients with high quality, seamlessly
arranged programs. In addition, we offer individual music programs to clients
who seek further customization beyond that offered by our core music programs.
As of December 31, 2001, our owned operations provided our Audio Architecture
product to approximately 179,500 client locations.

     Voice is telephone music and marketing on-hold as well as in-store
messaging. Our Voice staff creates customized music and messages that allow
clients' telephone systems to deliver targeted music and messaging during their
customers' time on hold. In addition, they also provide customized in-store
messages that allow our clients to deliver targeted music and messaging to
support their in-store point of sale merchandising. Our fully integrated sound
studios and editing and tape duplication facilities provide flexibility in
responding to clients' needs. Our telephone and satellite delivery technologies
allow us to expeditiously change our clients' music and messages. As of December
31, 2001, our owned operations provided our Voice product to approximately
48,000 client locations.

     In connection with the sale of our Audio Architecture and Voice products,
we sell and lease various system-related products, principally sound systems. As
part of a typical music programming contract, we provide music receiving or
playback equipment to our client. Our business music clients generally purchase
or lease audio equipment from us that supplements the music receiving or
playback equipment.

     We also sell, install and maintain non-music related equipment, such as
intercom and paging systems. We provide these services for our business music
and other clients. Maintenance of program-receiving equipment that we provide to
business music clients is typically included as part of the overall music
service. Installation and maintenance of audio or other equipment not directly
related to reception of our business music service is provided on a contractual
or time-and-materials basis. All of the equipment is manufactured by third
parties, although some items bear the Muzak(R) brand name.

     We offer drive-thru systems service. This service provides for the
maintenance and repair of intercom systems, headsets and radio transmitters
commonly used in drive-thru systems found at our quick service restaurant
clients. We receive recurring monthly revenues for each client location
typically under a five-year contract. We respond to our clients' repair calls
which typically involve the repair of headsets. In most cases we are able to
exchange the damaged headset for an operable headset which we send to our
clients through overnight delivery. Our staff repairs the damaged item which
then becomes available for future distribution to another client. We believe
that quick turnaround is important to our clients as a significant portion of
their revenues is derived from their drive-thru windows.

Nationwide Franchise Network

     We have a nationwide franchise network that currently divides the country
into 162 affiliate territories, of which 52 are served by our owned operations
and the remaining 110 are served by our independent franchisees.

Franchise Agreement Terms

     Our business relationships with our franchisees are governed by license
agreements that have renewable ten-year terms. Under these agreements, the
franchisee is granted an exclusive license to offer and sell our Audio
Architecture and Voice products, as well as other products such as Dayparting
and Weekparting. The franchisee is also permitted to use our registered
trademarks within a defined territory which allows us to promote a uniform Muzak
brand image nationally. The agreements also contain terms relating to
distribution of services via our direct broadcast satellite distribution system
and reciprocal exclusivity provisions which preclude franchisees from selling
products which compete with our Audio Architecture and Voice products.

                                       4

<PAGE>

     Pursuant to the agreements, each franchisee pays us a monthly fee based on
the number of businesses within its territory and a monthly royalty equal to
approximately 10% of its billings for music services. Typically, this combined
fee and royalty payment represents approximately $5 per month per client
location. However, this monthly royalty is subject to adjustments, as we charge
the franchisee additional amounts for on-premise tape services and other
services. The agreements also provide franchisees with incentives to increase
sales and guidelines regarding coordination of sales, installation and service
to national client locations.

Distribution Systems

     We transmit our offerings through various mediums including direct
broadcast satellite transmission, local broadcast transmission, audio and
videotapes and compact discs. During 2001, we served our music client locations
through the following means: approximately 78% through direct broadcast
satellite transmission, approximately 12% through local broadcast technology,
and approximately 10% through on-premises tapes or compact discs.

     Our transmissions via direct broadcast satellite to clients are primarily
from transponders leased from Microspace and EchoStar Satellite Corporation
("EchoStar"). Microspace provides us with facilities for uplink transmission of
medium-powered direct broadcast satellite signals to the transponders.
Microspace, in turn, leases its transponder capacity on satellites operated by
third parties. Such satellites include the Galaxy IIIR satellite operated by
PanAmSat, through which a majority of our direct broadcast satellite client
locations are served, and Telestar 4, operated by Loral Skynet. In January 2001,
we contracted for transponder capacity on Telestar 4 in order to provide the
signal for our recently introduced Encompass LE satellite receiver. The term of
our transponder lease with Microspace for the Galaxy IIIR satellite ends in 2005
while the lease for Telestar 4 ends in 2017. Microspace can terminate its
agreements with us immediately upon termination of its underlying agreements
with PanAmSat and Loral Skynet. We regularly review the availability of
alternate transponders.

         Since April 2001, the Galaxy IIIR satellite has been operating on its
backup spacecraft control processor, following failure of its primary spacecraft
processor. Galaxy IIIC is intended by PanAmSat to serve as the replacement for
Galaxy IIIR. As of March 2002, PanAmSat estimated that Galaxy IIIC would launch
in the second quarter of 2002 and commence service in the third quarter of 2002.
Insurance that had been secured to cover increased costs in the event of a
Galaxy IIIR satellite failure expired on December 31, 2001. We explored the
availability of comparable coverage and concluded not to secure such coverage at
this time given the cost and terms of such available coverage. However, Muzak
believes it will be able to secure comparable coverage once the Galaxy IIIC is
launched in the third quarter of 2002.

     As part of our arrangements with EchoStar, we furnish 60 music channels to
commercial subscribers and 52 of the 60 music channels to residential
subscribers over EchoStar's satellite system. Pursuant to the agreements with
EchoStar, EchoStar pays us a programming fee for each of its residential
subscribers and pays us and our franchisees a commission for sales made by
EchoStar or its agents to commercial subscribers in the respective territories.
We pay EchoStar a fee for uplink transmission of music channels to our clients
and we rent space at EchoStar's Cheyenne, Wyoming uplink facility. We also pay
EchoStar a royalty and combined access fees on music programs sold by Muzak
which are distributed by EchoStar to commercial subscribers. The term of each of
our agreements with EchoStar ends in 2010.

     EchoStar has agreed that it will not provide transponder space to, enter
into or maintain distributor agreements or relationships with, or enter into any
agreements for the programming or delivery of any audio services via direct
broadcast satellite frequencies with, a specified group of our competitors. We
have agreed that we will not secure transponder space for, enter into or
maintain distributor agreements or relationships with, or enter into any
agreement for the programming or delivery of any of our services with any
competitor of EchoStar via direct broadcast satellite frequencies or with
specified competitors of EchoStar via specified frequencies.

Competition

     We compete with many local, regional, national and international providers
of business music and business services. National competitors include DMX Music,
Inc. and Music Choice. In May 2001, Liberty Digital Inc., the parent company of
DMX Music, announced the completion of the merger of AEI Music Network and DMX
Music. As a result of this merger, we face a larger competitor than any we have
previously faced. Local and regional competitors are typically smaller entities
that target businesses with few locations. We compete on the basis of service,
the quality and variety of our music programs, versatility and flexibility, the
availability of our non-music services and, to a lesser extent, price. Even
though we are seldom the lowest-priced provider of business music in any
territory, we believe that we can compete effectively on all these bases due to
the widespread recognition of the Muzak name, our nationwide network, the
quality and variety of our music programming, the talent of our audio architects
and our multiple delivery systems. Some of our competitors may have
substantially greater financial, technical, personnel, and other resources than
we do.

                                       5

<PAGE>

     There are numerous methods by which our existing and future competitors can
deliver programming, including various forms of direct broadcast satellite
services, wireless cable, fiber optic cable, digital compression over existing
telephone lines, advanced television broadcast channels, Digital Audio Radio
Service and the Internet. We cannot assure you that we will be able to:

  .  compete successfully with our existing or potential new competitors,

  .  maintain or increase our current market share,

  .  use, or compete effectively with competitors that adopt new delivery
     methods and technologies, or

  .  keep pace with discoveries or improvements in the communications, media and
     entertainment industries such that our existing technologies or delivery
     systems that we currently rely upon will not become obsolete.

Sales and Marketing

     We employ a direct sales process in marketing products, which is focused on
securing new client contracts and renewing existing contracts. We seek to
capitalize on the operating leverage of the business by increasing our client
base. Once we obtain a new client, there are only minimal maintenance costs
associated with that client. As a result, we continually try to increase not
only our market share but also the market penetration of both business music and
music and marketing on-hold and in-store messaging products. We publish
targeted, industry specific marketing materials and conduct extensive training
of our sales force. Client agreements typically have a non-cancelable term of
five years and renew automatically for at least one additional five-year term
unless specifically terminated at the initial contract expiration date. Repeat
clients comprise the core of the account base. We have local and national sales
forces. Local account executives typically focus on clients that have fewer than
50 locations, which may include individual franchisees of national chains.

     National Salesforce

     Our national sales group is responsible for securing new national accounts
and maintaining our existing client base of national accounts. We have a total
of seven account executives and sales managers focused exclusively on selling
services to clients that have at least 50 locations in at least 4 territories.
Each owned operation and franchisee, is responsible for installing, servicing,
and billing the accounts within its territory.

     Local Salesforce

     As of December 31, 2001, we had a team of approximately 200 local sales
account executives. Local account executives typically focus on clients that
have fewer than 50 locations, which may include individual franchisees of
national chains. For clients with more locations a national salesperson is
available to assist the local account executive in securing the sale. Our local
account executives are compensated on commission.

Music Licenses

     We license rights to re-record and distribute music from a variety of
sources and pay royalties to songwriters and publishers through contracts
negotiated with performing rights societies such as the American Society of
Composers, Authors and Publishers ("ASCAP"), Broadcast Music, Inc. ("BMI"), and
the Society of European Stage Authors and Composers ("SESAC").

     The industry-wide agreement between business music providers and BMI
expired in December 1993. Since this time we have been operating under an
interim agreement pursuant to which we have continued to pay royalties at the
1993 rates. Business music providers and BMI have been negotiating the terms of
a new agreement. We are involved in a rate court proceeding, initiated by BMI in
Federal Court in New York. At issue are the music license fees payable to BMI.
The period from which such "reasonable" license fees are payable covers the
period January 1, 1994 to December 31, 2001, and likely several years
thereafter. BMI contends that those fee levels understate reasonable fee levels
by as much as 100%. We are vigorously contesting BMI's assessment. We believe
the eventual court ruling setting final

                                       6

<PAGE>

fees for the period covered will require retroactive adjustment, upward or
downward, likely back to January 1, 1994, and possibly will also entail payment
of pre-judgment interest. Discovery in the proceeding has commenced and is not
yet completed. As of March 29, 2002, a trial date had not been set.

     The industry-wide agreement between business music providers and ASCAP
expired in May 1999. We began negotiations with ASCAP in June 1999, and we have
continued to pay ASCAP royalties at the 1999 rates. We cannot predict what the
terms of the new BMI or ASCAP agreements with business music providers will be
or when agreements will be reached, although BMI has indicated that it is
seeking royalty rate increases and a retroactive royalty rate increase.

     In 2001, we paid approximately $8.0 million in royalties to ASCAP, BMI and
to SESAC. Increases in the fees we must pay under these agreements could
adversely affect our operating margin, and, therefore, our results of
operations.

     In connection with ASCAP's periodic audit program, ASCAP conducted audits
during 2001 of our license fee calculations in local sales offices and for
national accounts. Based on those audits, ASCAP indicated that they believed our
past license fee calculations were incorrect and additional license fees were
due. We settled the discrepancy with respect to all sales offices and national
accounts for all open audit periods prior to and including 2001 and paid the
settlement in December 2001. In addition, we expect that our future license fees
to ASCAP and BMI will be higher than in the past in light of the audit results.
We also believe that we may be required to pay additional license fees,
retroactively, to BMI as a result of our review of our license fee calculations.

     In October 1998, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act was enacted. The Act
provides for a statutory license for digital copies granted from the copyright
owner of the master recordings. Ephemeral copies refer to temporary copies of
master sound recordings made to enable or facilitate the digital transmission of
such recordings. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act did not specify the rate
and terms of the license. As a result, the United States Copyright Office
convened a Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel to recommend an ephemeral royalty
rate, and such Panel published a report that was released in February 2002.

     The Panel recommended an ephemeral royalty rate of ten percent (10%) of
gross proceeds applicable to the use of ephemeral copies of copyrighted
recordings. That recommendation is now subject to the review of the Librarian of
Congress, who can either modify or adopt such recommendation. Upon publication
of the Librarian's determination in the Federal Register, such determination may
further be appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit.

     Since a final determination has yet to be published by the Librarian of
Congress and an appeal of any such final determination may arise after such
publication, we cannot currently predict what the ultimate ephemeral royalty
rate or license terms are likely to be. As a result, we cannot predict the
extent of our exposure for retroactive royalty payments dating back to October
1998 under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. However with respect to future
revenue, we believe our exposure is minimal, as we believe our current satellite
technologies do not require use of ephemeral copies. Nonetheless, there can be
no assurances that the collective for the copyright owners, the Record Industry
Association of America, will refrain from investigating or otherwise challenging
the applicability of the statute to our satellite technologies.

Government Regulation

     We are subject to governmental regulation by the United States and the
governments of other countries in which we provide services. We provide music
services in a few areas in the United States through 928 to 960 megahertz
frequencies licensed by the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC").
Additionally, the FCC licenses the frequencies used by satellites on which we
transmit direct broadcast satellite services in the United States. If the FCC or
any other person revokes or refuses to extend any of these licenses, we would be
required to seek alternative transmission facilities. Laws, regulations and
policy, or changes therein, in other countries could also adversely affect our
existing services or restrict the growth of its business in these countries.

Employees

     As of December 31, 2001, we had 1,347 full-time and 75 part-time employees.
Approximately 139 of our technical and service personnel are union members.
These personnel are located in 14 offices, 13 of which are represented by the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and one of which is represented
by the Communication Workers of America. Of the 13 offices represented by the
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, two offices are negotiating new
contracts to replace contracts which expired on December 31, 2001.

     The contract with the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers that
covers our St. Louis, Missouri office expired on August 31, 2001. The
International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers filed a charge in November 2001
with the National Labor Relations Board alleging that we failed and refused to
bargain in good faith. While we denied the allegations and began formally
responding to the charge, the eight technical and service personnel that are
union members in the St. Louis office went on strike effective November 27,
2001. The strike ended on February 5, 2002. During the strike period, we used
supervisors, subcontractors, and other employees to perform the service calls
and installations that would otherwise be performed by the striking workers. We
are using a federal mediator to aid in resolving the charge filed with the
National Labor Relations Board and are in the process of negotiating a new
contract. We believe that our relationship with those employees that were on
strike has been good since the return to work.

     We otherwise believe that our relations with our employees and with the
unions that represent them are generally good.


ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

     Muzak leases its headquarters located at 3318 Lakemont Boulevard, Fort
Mill, South Carolina. The telephone number of our headquarters is
(803) 396-3000. Our headquarters consists of approximately 100,000 square feet
which accommodates our executive offices, operations, national sales, marketing,
technical, finance and administrative staffs, and a warehouse. We also have
local sales offices in various locations, and lease space at two satellite
uplink facilities in Raleigh, North Carolina and Cheyenne, Wyoming and
warehouses in various locations. Approximately 95% of the total square footage
of all of the Company's facilities is leased and the remainder is owned.

     Muzak considers all of its properties, both owned and leased, suitable for
its existing needs.


ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

     Muzak is subject to various proceedings in the ordinary course of its
business. Management believes that such proceedings are routine in nature and
incidental to the conduct of its business, and that none of such proceedings, if
determined adversely to Muzak, would have a material adverse effect on the
consolidated financial condition or results of operations of Muzak.

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

     None.

(1)  ABRY Partners formed Audio Communications Network LLC in October 1998 to
     acquire 8 Muzak franchises from Audio Communication Network, Inc, (the
     "Predecessor Company"). In March 1999, Muzak Limited Partnership, the
     franchisor, was merged into Audio Communications Network LLC. In connection
     with the merger, Audio Communications Network LLC changed its name to Muzak
     LLC. After the merger, Muzak made one, 10, and 11 acquisitions during 2001,
     2000 and 1999 respectively.
(2)  Net loss for the year ended December 31, 2001 includes a $1.2 million
     charge related to a license fee audit and a charge of $0.7 million related
     to the postponed private placement of Senior Subordinated Notes.
(3)  EBITDA represents net income before interest, income taxes, depreciation
     and amortization. EBITDA is not intended to be a performance measure that
     should be regarded as an alternative to, or more meaningful than, either
     operating income or net income as an indicator of operating performance,
     cash flow, or liquidity, as determined in accordance with generally
     accepted accounting principles, known as GAAP. However, management believes
     that EBITDA is a meaningful measure of performance and that it is commonly
     used in similar industries to analyze and compare companies on the basis of
     operating performance, leverage and liquidity, however, it is not
     necessarily comparable to similarly titled amounts of other companies.

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

Business Overview

     Muzak is the leading provider of business music programming in the United
States based on market share. We believe that, together with our franchisees, we
have a market share of approximately 60% of the estimated number of U.S.
business locations currently subscribing to business music programming. Together
with our franchisees, we have nationwide coverage and served an installed base
of approximately 335,000 client locations as of December 31, 2001.

                                       10

<PAGE>

     For a typical Audio Architecture client generated by our owned operations,
we make an initial one-time investment of approximately $1,190 (including
equipment, installation labor, and sales commissions, net of installation fees)
and currently generate approximately $45 of contribution (gross revenues less
direct variable costs) per month per client location. This allows us to recover
our investment within 26 months and generate a 56% annual return on investment
per Audio Architecture client location, based on an average client relationship
of 12 years.

     For a typical Voice client generated by our owned operations, we make an
initial one-time investment of approximately $611 (including equipment,
installation labor and sales commissions, net of installation fees) and
currently generate approximately $45 of contribution (gross revenues less direct
variable costs) per month per client location. This allows us to recover our
investment within 14 months and generate a 132% annual return on investment per
Voice client location based on a typical five-year contract term.

     For clients generated by our franchisees, we receive a net monthly fee of
approximately $5 for each Audio Architecture client location and a fee for each
program that we produce for a Voice client. The initial one-time investment for
a new Audio Architecture or Voice client location generated by a franchisee is
borne exclusively by the franchisee.

Revenues, Cost of Revenues, Expenses and New Client Investments

     Revenues from the sale of music and other business services represented
74.0% of our total revenue in 2001, while equipment and other services revenue
represented the remaining 26.0% of our total revenue in 2001.

Revenues

     Our music and other business services revenue is generated from:

  .  the sale of our core products, Audio Architecture and Voice, by our owned
     operations to clients who pay monthly subscription fees;

  .  fees received from franchisees related to Audio Architecture, Voice and the
     servicing of drive-thru systems; and

  .  service contract revenues for maintenance and repair of drive-thru systems
     used by our quick-service restaurant clients.

     We derive equipment and related services revenues from the sale of audio
system-related products, principally sound systems and intercoms, to business
music clients and other clients. Equipment and related services revenues also
include revenue from the installation, service and repair of equipment installed
under a client contract. Installation, service and repair revenues consist
principally of revenues from the installation of sound systems and other
equipment that is not expressly part of a client contract. Installation revenues
from sales of music and other business services are deferred and recognized over
the term of the respective contracts.

Costs of Revenues

     The cost of revenues for music and other business services consists
primarily of broadcast delivery, programming and licensing associated with
providing music and other business programming to a client or a franchisee. The
cost of revenues for equipment represents the purchase cost plus handling,
shipping and warranty expenses. The cost of revenues for related services, which
includes installation, service and repair, consists primarily of service and
repair labor and labor for installation that is not associated with new client
locations. The costs for installation that are associated with new client
locations are capitalized as part of property and equipment and are depreciated
over the initial contract term of five years.

                                       11

<PAGE>

Expenses

     Selling, general and administrative expenses include salaries, benefits,
commissions, travel, marketing materials, training and occupancy costs
associated with staffing and operating local sales offices. These expenses also
include personnel and other costs in connection with our headquarters functions.
Sales commissions are recorded within deferred charges and other assets, net and
are amortized as a component of selling, general and administrative expense over
the initial contract term of five years. If a client's contract is terminated
early, the unamortized sales commission is typically recovered from the
salesperson.

New Client Investment

     The majority of our investments are comprised of our initial outlay for
each new client location. We incur these costs only after receiving a signed
contract from a client. Our typical initial one-time client installation
investment per client location (including equipment, installation labor and
sales commissions, net of installation fees) is approximately $1,190 and $611
per Audio Architecture and Voice client location, respectively. The cost of
equipment installed at the client's premises is recorded within property and
equipment and amortized over five years. In the event of a contract termination,
we can typically recover and reuse the installed equipment. Sales commissions
incurred in connection with acquiring new client locations are recorded within
deferred charges and other assets, net and amortized as a component of selling,
general and administrative expense over the initial contract term of five years.
If a client's contract terminates early, the unamortized sales commission is
typically recovered from the salesperson.


Critical Accounting Policies

     Muzak's discussion and analysis of its financial condition and results of
operations are based upon Muzak's consolidated financial statements, which have
been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States. The preparation of these financial statements requires Muzak to
make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosure of contingent assets
and liabilities. These estimates can also affect supplemental information
contained in the external disclosures of the Company including information
regarding contingencies, risk and the financial condition . On an on-going
basis, Muzak evaluates its estimates, including those related to bad debts,
inventories, intangible assets, fixed assets and contingencies and litigation.
Muzak bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other
assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the
results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values
of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources.
Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or
conditions which could materially affect the financial statements.

     Allowance for doubtful accounts. The Company maintains allowances for
doubtful accounts for estimated losses resulting from the inability of its
clients to make required payments under their contracts. Management evaluates
the credit risk and financial viability of the client to estimate the allowance.
Although the Company does not believe that it has a concentration of risk in one
industry or client, the deterioration in its clients financial condition,
resulting in an impairment of its clients ability to make payments, may require
additional allowances.

     Property and equipment. The Company has significant property and equipment
on its balance sheet which is primarily comprised of equipment provided to
subscribers and the labor associated with the installation of the equipment
provided to subscribers. We periodically review our property and equipment for
possible impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying
value of an asset may not be recoverable. Such review is based on undiscounted
cash flow analysis and Muzak reduces the assets to fair value when carrying
amount exceeds the undiscounted cash flows. The undiscounted cash flow analysis
requires management to estimate future cash flows which includes assumptions
regarding sales growth and associated costs. Additionally, the valuation and
classification of these assets and the assignment of useful depreciable lives
involves judgment and the use of estimates. Changes in business conditions,
technology, or customer preferences could potentially require future adjustments
to asset valuations.

     Intangible Assets. The Company has significant intangible assets on its
balance sheet that include goodwill and other intangibles resulting from
numerous acquisitions. The valuation and classification of these assets and the
assignment of useful amortization lives involves significant judgments and the
use of estimates. The testing of these intangibles under established accounting
guidelines for impairment also requires significant use of judgment and
assumptions. The Company's assets are tested and reviewed for impairment on an
ongoing basis under the established accounting guidelines. Changes in business
conditions could potentially require future adjustments to asset valuations.

                                       12

<PAGE>

     The adoption of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 142,
"Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No. 142") on January 1, 2002, will
change our methodology for assessing goodwill impairments. We will complete the
impairment testing required to determine if goodwill is impaired in 2002. A
future decline in the fair market value of the associated intangibles due to a
deterioration in general economic conditions may result in an impairment charge.


     Contingencies. The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits
arising out of the normal conduct of its business. The Company reviews a claim
and records a charge when it is both probable and can be reasonably estimated.
The determination of when a claim is both probable and can be reasonably
estimated is based upon numerous factors including information available,
historical experience, and the advice of internal and external counsel.
Management's evaluation of a claim may change based upon changes in these and
other factors.

Results of Operations

     Set forth below are discussions of the results of operations for the
Company for the periods indicated.

Muzak Holdings-Year Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Year Ended December 31,
2000

     Revenues. Revenues were $203.4 million and $192.1 million for the years
ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, an increase of 5.8%. Music and
other business services revenue increased $12.3 million, or 8.9% in 2001 as
compared to the year ended December 31, 2000. The growth in music and other
business services revenue is due to an increase in new client locations, offset
by an 11.8% churn rate. The 2001 churn rate was higher than historical levels
due to more bankruptcies and business closures in our client base. During 2001,
we added, net of churn of both acquisition locations and locations obtained
through our sales and marketing efforts, 12,450 Audio Architecture, 1,870 Voice,
and 1,900 other locations. Equipment and related services revenue decreased
$1.1 million, or 2.0% in 2001 as compared to 2000. This decrease is largely due
to less capital spending associated with a reduction in new location store build
outs among national clients, particularly within the retail sector.

     Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues was $71.5 million and $68.8 million for
the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, an increase of 4.0%.
Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 35.2% and 35.8% for the years
ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This improvement was primarily
due to the leveraging of fixed costs over a larger client base, offset by
additional fixed charges for transponder capacity on Telestar 4, as well as a
charge taken in the fourth quarter of 2001 in connection with a license fee
audit. In addition, decreased equipment and related services revenues, coupled
with disruptions in our technician work force's ability to install new client
locations in the days following September 11, 2001, resulted in lower equipment
and related services margins.

     Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Selling, largely general,
and administrative expenses were $68.1 million and $63.8 million for the years
ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This increase is largely
attributable to the amortization of sales commissions, a non-cash component of
selling, general, and administrative expenses. Amortization of sales commissions
was $9.5 million and $5.8 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and
2000, respectively. This increase is directly related to the increase in music
and other business services revenue since the merger. Excluding the amortization
of sales commissions, selling, general, and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues were 28.8% and 30.2% for the fiscal years ended December
31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. This improvement is attributable to the
Company's continued focus on controlling expenses, including travel, salaries
and other employee related expenses, telephone and other administrative
expenses.

     Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization
expense was $75.7 million and $63.1 million for the years ended December 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively, an increase of 19.9%. This increase is due to the
increase in property and equipment in conjunction with the growth in the number
of client locations generated by our salesforce.

     Interest expense. Interest expense was $39.4 million and $46.3 million for
the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, a decrease of 14.9%.
This decrease is due to lower outstanding debt balances and lower interest rates
during 2001 as well as to the conversion of the $27.0 million sponsor notes into
equity in May 2001.

     Income tax benefit. Income tax benefit was $0.6 million and $1.1 million
for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively, a decrease of
45.0%. Muzak is a limited liability company and is treated as a partnership for
income tax purposes.

     Net loss. The combined effect of the foregoing resulted in a net loss of
$51.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2001 as compared to a loss of
$50.6 million for the comparable 2000 period.

Muzak Holdings-Year Ended December 31, 2000 Compared to Year Ended December 31,
1999

     During the period from January 1, 1999 to March 17, 1999, we were a
franchisee, with operations in 11 territories. Following the merger in March
1999, we were the franchisor, and our operations were significantly larger, as
we generated revenues from owned operations in 45 territories and also received
fees from independent franchisees in the remaining 123 territories. The
following comparisons are impacted by the fact that 1999 results include less
than ten months of results as franchisor and by the acquisitions we completed
throughout 1999 and 2000.

     Revenues. Revenues were $192.1 million and $130.0 million for the years
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of 47.8%. The growth
was attributable to Muzak's significant increase in both Voice and Audio
Architecture clients resulting from the merger, acquisitions and internal
growth, as well as the expansion of Muzak's drive-thru systems business. During
2000, through our sales and marketing efforts, we added, net of churn, 23,631
Audio Architecture, 7,777 Voice and 4,100 drive-thru client locations. During
this same period, we added 11,685 Audio Architecture and 1,418 Voice client
locations through acquisitions, net of churn.

     Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues was $68.8 million and $48.3 million for
the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of 42.3%.
Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 35.8% and 37.2% for the years
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively. This improvement was primarily
due to the leveraging of fixed costs over a larger client base resulting from
the merger, acquisitions and internal growth and headcount reductions taken in
the second half of 2000, offset by the $1.6 million charge recorded during 2000
in connection with the renegotiated EchoStar Agreement.

     Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $63.8 million and $42.5 million for the years ended
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of 50.1%. This increase is
attributable to the growth in revenues as well as the increased administrative
expenses we have as franchisor, and due to the increased number of owned
operations resulting from the merger and acquisitions. Amortization of sales
commissions, a non-cash component of selling, general and administrative
expenses, was $5.8 million and $2.5 million for the years ended December 31,
2000 and 1999, respectively. Excluding the amortization of sales commissions,
selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of revenues were
30.2% and 30.8% for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively. This margin improvement is attributable to headcount reductions
taken in the second half of 2000 as well as vendor consolidation and contract
renegotiation to reduce telecommunications, shipping, printing and other costs.

     Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization was
$63.1 million and $36.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, an increase of 73.0%. This increase is due to the growth in
intangibles related to the acquisitions consummated in 1999 and 2000, along with
the increase in property and equipment in conjunction with Muzak's significant
growth in the number of client locations resulting from the merger, acquisitions
and internal growth.

     Interest Expense. Interest expense was $46.3 million and $29.6 million for
the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an increase of 75.3%.
The increase in interest expense during 2000 is due to Muzak's overall higher
borrowing levels as well as an increase in interest rates throughout 2000.

     Income Tax Benefit. The income tax benefit was $1.1 million and $0.4
million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, an
increase of 146%. Muzak is a limited liability company and is treated as a
partnership for income tax purposes.

     Extraordinary loss. Muzak recognized an extraordinary loss of $1.4 million
relating to the early redemption of the senior subordinated floating rate notes
in October 2000.

     Net loss. The combined effect of the foregoing resulted in a net loss of
$50.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2000, compared to a net loss of
$26.2 million for the comparable 1999 period.


Liquidity and Capital Resources

     Sources and Uses. Our principal sources of funds have been cash generated
from operations and borrowings under the senior credit facility. Our future need
for liquidity will arise primarily from capital expenditures for investments in
new client locations and from interest and principal payments on our
indebtedness. During the year ended December 31, 2001, $38.0 million of cash was
provided by our operating activities, $42.9 million of cash was used in
investing activities, and $4.4 million of cash was provided by financing
activities. The increase to $38.0 million in cash generated from operations
during 2001 as compared to a use of cash from operations of $3.5 million in 2000
is due to our improvement in working capital balances as well as to lower
interest rates on our indebtedness. The reduction of accounts receivable and
inventory balances generated $15.4 million during 2001. Cash was primarily used
during 2001 to make investments relating to new client locations and to make
principal and interest payments on the senior credit facility.

                                       14

<PAGE>

     We expect that our principal sources of funds will continue to be cash
flows from operations and borrowings under the senior credit facility. As of
December 31, 2001, we had outstanding debt of $187.5 million under our senior
credit facility, with additional available borrowings of up to $13.3 million.
Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, we believe that our
cash flows from operations, combined with availability under the senior credit
facility, will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the foreseeable
future. We are continuing our efforts to reduce accounts receivable and
inventory balances, while implementing additional cost-saving initiatives.
Overall, Muzak's business plan anticipates continued growth in new client
locations and operational improvements. Our future performance is subject to
industry based factors such as the level of competition in the business music
industry, competitive pricing, concentrations in and dependence on satellite
delivery capabilities, rapid technological changes, the impact of legislation
and regulation, our dependence on license agreements and other factors that are
beyond our control.

     In March 2002, the Company amended its senior credit facility to increase
its aggregate revolving loan commitment under the Senior Credit Facility by
$20.0 million, for a total commitment of $55.0 million and to modify certain
financial covenants for 2002 and 2003. The Senior Credit Facility contains
restrictive covenants which are customary for such facilities. Also, the Company
obtained a waiver for violating the capital expenditures covenant for the year
ended December 31, 2001.

     Capital Investments. The majority of our capital expenditures are comprised
of the initial one-time investment for the installation of equipment for new
client locations. During the year ended December 31, 2001, our total initial
investment in new client locations was $51.3 million which was comprised of
equipment and installation costs attributable to new client locations of $34.9
million and $16.4 million in sales commissions (included in cash provided by
operating activities in the consolidated statement of cash flows) relating to
these new locations. The sales commissions are capitalized in deferred charges
and other assets, net and are amortized as a component of selling, general and
administrative expenses over the initial contract term of five years. We also
receive installation revenue relating to new locations. This revenue is deferred
and amortized as a component of equipment and related services revenue over the
initial contract term of five years.

     We also invest in property and equipment to be used at our headquarters and
within our owned operations. Our investment for such property and equipment for
2001 was approximately $3.5 million, consisting of system upgrades, furniture
and fixtures, computers, and equipment to replenish the equipment exchange pool
relating to our drive-thru systems client locations. In addition, during 2001,
we incurred equipment and installation costs of $3.0 million relating to
approximately 6,000 conversions from local broadcast technology to direct
broadcast satellite transmission for existing client locations. We re-used
existing receivers for the majority of these conversions, but incurred
installation costs and costs associated with procuring satellite dishes.

     We currently anticipate that our total initial investment in new client
locations during 2002 will be approximately $52.0 million including $36.0
million of equipment and installation costs attributable to new client
locations, and $16.0 million in sales commissions relating to new client
locations. The Company is focused on reducing the initial investment associated
with new client locations through the re-use of equipment and efficiencies
gained from vendor consolidation and labor management. In addition, we
anticipate our investment in property and equipment to be used at headquarters,
equipment for use in the exchange pool for servicing drive-thru systems client
locations, and equipment for conversions will be approximately $3.0 million. The
decrease from $6.5 million in 2001 for similar investments to our expected
investment of $3.0 million in 2002 is largely due to our belief that the level
of conversions experienced in 2001 will not continue for 2002.

     Debt Maturities. The senior credit facility provides for mandatory
prepayments with net cash proceeds of certain asset sales, net cash proceeds of
permitted debt issuances, and net cash proceeds from insurance recovery and
condemnation events; the senior credit facility requires annual excess cash
repayments. We did not have such excess cash repayment during 2001 and do not
expect to be required to make an annual excess cash repayment in 2002. The 9
7/8% senior subordinated notes mature in March 2009. The indentures governing
the 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes and the senior discount notes provide that
in the event of certain asset dispositions, Muzak and the Company must apply net
proceeds first to repay senior indebtedness. To the extent the net proceeds have
not been applied within 360 days from the asset disposition to an investment in
capital expenditures or other long term tangible assets used in the business,
and to the extent the remaining net proceeds exceed $10.0 million, we must make
an offer to purchase outstanding 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes at 100% of
their principal amount plus accrued interest. To the extent there are excess
funds after the purchase of the 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes, the Company
must make an offer to purchase outstanding senior discount notes at 100% of the
accreted value. Muzak and the Company must also make an offer to purchase
outstanding 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes and the senior discount notes at
101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest if a change in
control of Muzak occurs.

     The Company has the option to redeem the manditorily redeemable preferred
units under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, at any time after a
qualified initial public offering or change of control or after October 18,
2003, in whole or in part, at an amount equal to the unreturned capital
contribution of the preferred units plus accrued preferential returns plus a
prepayment premium. For redemptions upon a qualified initial public offering or
change of control, the prepayment premium may be up to 5% of an amount based on
the amount distributed in the redemption and for redemptions after October 18,
2003, the prepayment premium may be up to 6% of such amount. The holders of the
preferred units have the option to cause the Company to redeem their preferred
units under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement at any time after
October 17, 2011 or upon a change of control. In addition, upon a change of
control, the holders of the preferred units have the option to cause the Company
to redeem all or any portion of the purchased Class A Units under the terms of
the Securities Purchase Agreement. All of the redemptions at the option of the
holders of the preferred units are subject to a prepayment premium of up to 5%
based on the amount distributed in the redemption. For all of the foregoing
redemptions, whether at the option of the Company or the holders of the
preferred units, the Company may only make such redemption if it does not
violate the terms of any debt agreements of the Company or of which the Company
is a guarantor, including the indenture governing the Senior Discount Notes, the
indenture governing the senior subordinated notes and the senior credit
agreement.

     Sensitivity to Interest Rate Changes. Due to the variable interest rates
under the senior credit facility, we are sensitive to changes in interest rates.
Accordingly, in April 1999, we entered into a four year interest rate swap
agreement in which we effectively exchanged $100.0 million of floating rate debt
at three month LIBOR for 5.59% fixed rate debt. We terminated this agreement on
January 28, 2000 and in exchange received approximately $4.4 million. The
proceeds are being recorded as an adjustment to interest expense over the term
of the new interest rate swap agreement. On January 28, 2000, we entered into a
new interest rate swap agreement in which we effectively exchanged $100.0
million of floating rate debt at three month LIBOR for 7.04% fixed rate debt.
The interest rate swap agreement terminates on April 19, 2002. A 0.5% increase
in each of LIBOR and the Alternate Base Rate (2.39% and 4.75% respectively, at
December 31, 2001) would impact interest costs by approximately $0.4 million
annually on the senior credit facility. We expect to enter into a new swap
agreement in April 2002 as our senior credit facility requires that we maintain
a swap agreement for 50% of the outstanding balance of the senior credit
facility in order to limit our interest rate exposure.

Related party transactions

     On March 15, 2002, Muzak borrowed $10.0 million from MEM Holdings in the
form of junior subordinated unsecured notes, which we refer to as the sponsor
notes. MEM Holdings is a holding company that owns 64.2% of the voting
membership interests in the Parent. ABRY Broadcast Partners III, L.P. and ABRY
Broadcast Partners II, L.P. are the beneficial owners of MEM Holdings.

     The sponsor notes accrue interest at 15% per annum; any accrued interest
not paid as of March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31 will bear interest
at 15% per annum until such interest is paid or extinguished. The sponsor notes
are junior and subordinate to payments for the senior credit facility and the
senior subordinated notes. At any time, the sponsor notes may be converted into
class A-2 units of the Company at the direction of MEM Holdings. If the sponsor
notes have not been repaid in full as of September 15, 2003, the sponsor notes
will automatically be converted into class A-2 units of the Company.

     During October 1998, the Company entered into a Management and Consulting
Services Agreement, as amended and restated as of March 18, 1999 ("Management
Agreement") with ABRY Partners which provides that Muzak will pay a management
fee as defined in the Management Agreement. During both 2001 and 2000, the
Company incurred fees of $0.3 million under this agreement. There were no fees
incurred under the agreement during 1999. Either Muzak or ABRY Partners, with
the approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, may terminate the
Management Agreement by prior written notice to the other.

Seasonality

     Muzak historically has experienced slight seasonality in its equipment and
related services revenues and costs of revenues resulting primarily from a
significant retail client base which constructs and opens new retail stores in
time for the fourth quarter holiday season. Accordingly, Muzak experiences
higher equipment and related services revenues and costs of revenues in the
third and fourth quarters, as opposed to the first half of the year, as a result
of the installation and servicing of these new retail locations. However, this
seasonality was less of a factor during 2001 due to less capital spending
associated with a reduction in new location store build outs among national
clients, particularly within the retail sector. We are projecting that 2002
equipment and related services revenue will be consistent with 2001 levels.


Inflation and Changing Prices

     We do not believe that inflation and other changing prices have had a
significant impact on our operations.


Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

     In October 2001, Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 144 ("SFAS No. 144"),"Accounting
for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This Statement supersedes
SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for
Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and the accounting and reporting provisions
of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Effects of Disposal of a Segment of a
Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and
Transactions". This Statement retains the requirements of SFAS No. 121 to
recognize an impairment loss only if the carrying amount of a long-lived asset
is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows and to measure an impairment
loss as the difference between the carrying amount and the fair value of the
asset. However, this standard removes goodwill from its scope and revises the
approach for evaluating impairment. The Company is evaluating the impact of the
adoption of SFAS No. 144, but does not expect that implementation of this
standard will have a significant financial impact. This statement is effective
beginning January 1, 2002.

     Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations

     In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 143, "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). This
Statement addresses financial accounting and reporting for obligations
associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the associated
legal obligations of such asset retirement costs. The Company does not expect
that implementation of this standard will have a significant financial impact.
This Statement is effective beginning January 1, 2003.

     Business Combinations and Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

     In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141") and Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No.
142"). SFAS 141 supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 16,
"Business Combinations". The provisions of SFAS No. 141 (i) require that the
purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001, (ii) provide specific criteria for the initial recognition
and measurement of intangible assets apart from goodwill, and (iii) require that
unamortized negative goodwill be written off immediately as an extraordinary
gain instead of being deferred and amortized. SFAS No. 141 also requires that,
upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company reclassify the carrying amounts of
certain intangible assets into or out of goodwill, based on certain criteria.
SFAS No. 142 supercedes APB 17, "Intangible Assets" and is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 142 primarily addresses the
accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their initial
recognition. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 (i) prohibit the amortization of
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, (ii) require that goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested annually for impairment (and in
interim periods if certain events occur indicating that the carrying value of
goodwill and or indefinite-lived intangible assets may be impaired), (iii)
require that reporting units be identified for the purpose of assessing the
potential future impairments of goodwill, and (iv) remove the 40 year limitation
on the amortization period of intangible asses that have finite lives.

         The provisions of SFAS No. 142 will be adopted by the Company on
January 1, 2002. The Company is in the process of preparing for its adoption of
SFAS No. 142. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company
expects to reclassify other intangibles of $6.4 million related to trained
workforce to goodwill. In addition, the Company expects that it will no longer
record approximately $9.5 million annually of amortization relating to its
existing goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles, as adjusted for the
reclassification referred to above. The Company is also in the process of
evaluating the useful lives of its existing intangible assets and anticipates
that changes in the useful lives, if any, will not have a material impact on the
results of its operations.

     SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested annually for impairment using
a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment and, in
transition, this step must be measured as of the beginning of the fiscal year.
However, the Company has six months from the date of adoption to complete the
first step. The second step of the goodwill impairment test measures the amount
of the impairment loss (also measured as of the beginning of the fiscal year in
year of transition), if any, and must be completed by the end of the Company's
2002 fiscal year. Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life will be
tested for impairment using a one-step process that compares the fair value to
the carrying amount of the assets as of the beginning of the fiscal year, and
pursuant to the requirements of SFAS No. 142 will be completed during the first
quarter of 2002. Any impairment loss resulting from the transitional impairment
tests in 2002 will be reflected as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. The Company has not yet determined what effect these
impairment tests, or what additional effects the adoption of SFAS No. 141 and
SFAS No. 142, will have on its financial statements.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Interest Rate Exposure

     Our exposure to market risk for changes in interest rates relates primarily
to our long-term debt obligations. The interest rate exposure for our variable
rate debt obligations is currently indexed to LIBOR of one, two, or three months
as selected by us, or the Alternate Base Rate. We use interest rate swap
agreements to modify our exposure to interest rate movements and to reduce
borrowing rates. See "Sensitivity to Interest Rate Changes" for a description of
the Company's interest rate swap.

     The table below provides information about our debt obligations and
interest rate protection agreement. For debt obligations, the table presents
principal cash flows and related weighted average interest rates by expected
maturity dates. For interest rate protection agreements, the table presents
notional amounts and weighted average interest rates by expected (contractual)
maturity dates. Weighted average variable interest rates are based on implied
LIBOR in the yield curve at the reporting date. The principal cash flows are in
thousands.

The interest rate swap agreement terminates on April 19, 2002. We expect to
enter into a new swap agreement on April 20, 2002 as our senior credit facility
requires that we maintain a swap agreement to limit our interest rate exposure.
The average pay rate reflected in the table above is the pay rate on the
existing swap agreement. We can not predict what the pay rate will be under the
new swap agreement.

ABRY Partners Management and Consulting Services Agreement

     Pursuant to an Amended and Restated Management and Consulting Services
Agreement between ABRY Partners and the Company dated March 18, 1999, ABRY
Partners is entitled to a management fee when, and if, it provides advisory and
management consulting services to the Company and based on the amount invested
by ABRY Partners and its affiliates in the Company. During both 2001 and 2000,
Muzak incurred fees of $0.3 million under this agreement. There were no fees
incurred during 1999. Either ABRY Partners or the Company, with the approval of
the Board of Directors of the Company, may terminate the Management Agreement by
prior written notice to the other.


Related Party Debt

     On March 15, 2002, Muzak borrowed $10.0 million from MEM Holdings in the
form of junior subordinated unsecured notes, which we refer to as the sponsor
notes. MEM Holdings is a holding company that owns 64.2% of the voting
membership interests in the Company. ABRY Broadcast Partners III, L.P. and ABRY
Broadcast Partners II, L.P. are the beneficial owners of MEM Holdings.

     The sponsor notes accrue interest at 15% per annum; any accrued interest
not paid as of March 31, June 30, September 30 or December 31 will bear interest
at 15% per annum until such interest is paid or extinguished. The sponsor notes
are junior and subordinate to payments for the Senior Credit Facility and the
Senior Subordinated Notes. At any time, the sponsor notes may be converted into
class A-2 units of the Parent. If the sponsor notes, have not been repaid in
full as of September 15, 2003, the sponsor notes will automatically be converted
into class A-2 units of the Company.

     From July 1, 1999 through November 24, 1999, Muzak borrowed an aggregate
amount of $30.0 million from MEM Holdings in the form of sponsor notes. We
repaid $3.0 million of the sponsor note with the proceeds received from an
equity contribution from the Parent following its preferred membership unit
offering in October 2000. The remaining $27.0 million, plus $6.7 million of
accrued interest, was converted into Class A units of the Company in May 2001.

To the Board of Directors
of Muzak Holdings LLC:

In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index
appearing under Item 14(a)(1) on page 28 present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Muzak Holdings LLC (the "Company") and its
subsidiaries 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 28 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.

As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, the Company
adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 133 "Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" on January 1, 2001.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

1.   Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

     Organization--Muzak Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries (the "Company"),
previously known as ACN Holdings, LLC, was formed in September 1998 pursuant to
the laws of Delaware. In March 1999, the Company changed its name from Audio
Communications Network LLC ("ACN") to Muzak LLC concurrent with the merger of
Muzak Limited Partnership (Old Muzak") and ACN. The Company provides business
music programming to clients through its integrated nationwide network of owned
operations and franchises. All of the operating activities are conducted through
the Company and its subsidiaries.

     As of December 31, 2001, ABRY Partners, LLC and its respective affiliates,
collectively own approximately 64.2% of the beneficial interests in the
Company's voting interests.

     Basis of Presentation--The consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries: Muzak LLC, Muzak Capital
Corporation, Muzak Holdings Finance Corporation, Muzak Finance Corporation,
Business Sound Inc., Electro Systems Corporation, BI Acquisition LLC, MLP
Environmental Music LLC, Audio Environments Inc., Background Music Broadcasters
Inc., Telephone Audio Productions Inc., Vortex Sound Communications Company
Inc., Music Incorporated, and Muzak Houston Inc. All significant intercompany
items have been eliminated in consolidation.

     The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the consolidated financials statements and the
reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the period. Actual results
could differ from those estimates.

     Book overdraft--There was no book overdraft as of December 31, 2001. Book
overdraft of $5.3 million as of December 31, 2000 is included in accounts
payable.

     Concentration of Credit Risk--Concentrations of credit risk with respect to
trade accounts receivable are limited as the Company sells its products to
clients in diversified industries throughout the United States. The Company does
not require collateral from its clients, but performs ongoing credit evaluations
of its clients' financial condition and maintains allowances for potential
credit losses. Actual losses have been within management's expectations and
estimates.

     In addition, the Company leases satellite capacity primarily through three
lessors under operating leases. The Company transmits 78% of its music programs
via broadcast satellite. Although alternate satellite capacity exists, loss of
these suppliers of satellite capacity could temporarily disrupt operations. The
Company attempts to mitigate these risks by working closely with the lessors.

     Inventories--Inventories consist primarily of electronic equipment and are
valued at the lower of cost or market. Cost is determined on the first-in,
first-out basis.

     Property and Equipment--Property and equipment are stated at cost.
Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of the assets. Sound and music equipment installed at client premises
under contracts to provide music programming services is transferred from
inventory to property and equipment at cost plus an allocation of installation
costs and is amortized over 5 years. Impairment losses are recognized if
recorded values exceed undiscounted future cash flows, by reducing them to
estimated fair value. No impairment losses were recognized by the Company for
the periods presented.

     Intangible Assets--Intangible assets consist of the cost in excess of the
fair value of net assets acquired in transactions accounted for as purchases
(goodwill), income producing contracts acquired through acquisition, and other
identifiable intangibles.

      Management evaluates the recoverability of intangibles by comparing
recorded values to the undiscounted future cash flows that are expected to be
generated by such assets. Impairment losses are recognized if recorded values
exceed undiscounted future cash flows, by reducing them to estimated fair value.
No impairment losses were recognized by the Company for the periods presented.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     Deferred Charges and Other Assets, Net--Deferred charges and other assets
consist primarily of subscriber acquisition costs. Subscriber acquisition costs
are direct sales commissions incurred in connection with acquiring new
subscribers, which are amortized as a component of selling, general, and
administrative expenses over the life of the client contract or five years,
whichever is shorter, on a straight-line basis. If a client contract terminates
early, the unamortized subscriber acquisition costs is typically recovered from
the salesperson. The net subscriber acquisition balances were $37.4 million and
$30.6 million at December 31, 2001 and December 31, 2000, respectively. Deferred
financing costs are also included in deferred charges and other assets, net and
are charged to interest expense over the term of the related agreements.

     Advance Billings--The Company invoices certain clients in advance for
contracted music and other business services. Amounts received in advance of the
service period are deferred and recognized as revenue in the period services are
provided.

     Income Taxes--The Company is a Limited Liability Company that is treated as
a partnership for income tax purposes. No provision for income taxes is required
by the Company as its income and expenses are taxable to or deductible by its
members. The Company's corporate subsidiaries are subject to income taxes and
account for deferred income taxes under the liability method which requires the
recognition of deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax
consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax
basis of assets and liabilities.

     Revenue Recognition--Revenues from music services are recognized during the
period the service is provided based upon the contract terms. Revenues for
equipment sales and related installation are recognized upon delivery or
installation. Contracts are typically for a five-year non-cancelable period with
renewal options for an additional five years. Fees received for services to
franchisees are recognized as revenues in the month services are provided.

     Derivative Financial Instruments--The Company uses derivative financial
instruments to convert variable interest rate debt to fixed interest rate debt
to reduce its exposure to fluctuations in interest rates as dictated by the
senior credit facility.

     The Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments
and Hedging Activities," as amended, on January 1, 2001. In accordance with SFAS
133, the Company's derivative is recognized on the balance sheet at its fair
value since it is designated as a cash flow hedging instrument. The hedge is
100% effective for exposures to interest rate fluctuations. As a result of the
100% effectiveness of the hedge, changes in the fair value of the derivative are
recorded each period in other comprehensive loss. Upon adoption, the Company
recorded an adjustment to other comprehensive loss to recognize the fair value
of the unrealized losses related to the Company's interest rate swap of $1.7
million. This unrealized loss increased by $0.8 million during the year ended
December 31, 2001 and the cumulative unrealized losses on the Company's interest
rate swap was $2.5 million as of December 31, 2001. As of December 31, 2001, the
Company expects to reclassify $2.5 million of net losses on the interest rate
swap from other comprehensive loss to earnings during the next twelve months.


Recently Issued Accounting Standards

     Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets

     In October 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". This
Statement supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived
Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and the accounting and
reporting provisions of APB Opinion No. 30, "Reporting the Effects of Disposal
of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently
Occurring Events and Transactions". This Statement retains the requirements of
SFAS No. 121 to recognize an impairment loss only if the carrying amount of a
long-lived asset is not recoverable from its undiscounted cash flows and to
measure an impairment loss as the difference between the carrying amount and the
fair value of the asset. However, this standard removes goodwill from its scope
and revises the approach for evaluating impairment. The Company is evaluating
the impact of the adoption of SFAS No. 144, but does not expect that
implementation of this standard will have a significant financial impact. This
statement is effective January 1, 2002.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations

     In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 143, "Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations" ("SFAS No. 143"). This Statement addresses financial
accounting and reporting for obligations associated with the retirement of
tangible long-lived assets and the associated legal obligations of such asset
retirement costs. The Company does not expect that implementation of this
standard will have a significant financial impact. This Statement is effective
beginning January 1, 2003.

     Business Combinations and Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

         In June 2001, FASB issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 141, "Business Combinations" ("SFAS No. 141") and Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("SFAS No.
142"). SFAS 141 supercedes Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 16,
"Business Combinations". The provisions of SFAS No. 141 (i) require that the
purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations initiated
after June 30, 2001, (ii) provide specific criteria for the initial recognition
and measurement of intangible assets apart from goodwill, and (iii) require that
unamortized negative goodwill be written off immediately as an extraordinary
gain instead of being deferred and amortized. SFAS No. 141 also requires that,
upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company reclassify the carrying amounts of
certain intangible assets into or out of goodwill, based on certain criteria.
SFAS No. 142 supercedes APB 17, "Intangible Assets" and is effective for fiscal
years beginning after December 15, 2001. SFAS 142 primarily addresses the
accounting for goodwill and intangible assets subsequent to their initial
recognition. The provisions of SFAS No. 142 (i) prohibit the amortization of
goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets, (ii) require that goodwill and
indefinite-lived intangible assets be tested annually for impairment (and in
interim periods if certain events occur indicating that the carrying value of
goodwill and or indefinite-lived intangible assets may be impaired), (iii)
require that reporting units be identified for the purpose of assessing the
potential future impairments of goodwill, and (iv) remove the 40 year limitation
on the amortization period of intangible asses that have finite lives.

         The provisions of SFAS No. 142 will be adopted by the Company on
January 1, 2002. The Company is in the process of preparing for its adoption of
SFAS No. 142. In connection with the adoption of SFAS No. 142, the Company
expects to reclassify other intangibles of $6.4 million related to trained
workforce to goodwill. In addition, the Company expects that it will not longer
record approximately $9.5 million annually of amortization relating to its
existing goodwill and indefinite lived intangibles, as adjusted for the
reclassification referred to above. The Company is also in the process of
evaluating the useful lives of its existing intangible assets and anticipates
that changes in the useful lives, if any, will not have a material impact on the
results of its operations.

         SFAS No. 142 requires that goodwill be tested annually for impairment
using a two-step process. The first step is to identify a potential impairment
and, in transition, this step must be measured as of the beginning of the fiscal
year. However, the Company has six months from the date of adoption to complete
the first step. The second step of the goodwill impairment test measures the
amount of the impairment loss (also measured as of the beginning of the fiscal
year in year of transition), if any, and must be completed by the end of the
Company's fiscal year. Intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite life will
be tested for impairment using a one-step process that compares the fair value
to the carrying amount of the assets as of the beginning of the fiscal year, and
pursuant to the requirements of SFAS No. 142 will be completed during the first
quarter of 2002. Any impairment loss resulting from the transitional impairment
tests in 2002 will be reflected as the cumulative effect of a change in
accounting principle. The Company has not yet determined what effect these
impairment tests, or what additional effects the adoption of SFAS No. 141 and
SFAS No. 142 , will have on its financial statements.

     Reclassifications--Certain prior year items have been reclassified to
conform with the 2001 presentation.


2.   Acquisitions

     On May 31, 2001, the Company acquired Sound of Music, LTD ("Sound of
Music"), the Company's independent franchisee operating in Wisconsin for a cash
purchase price of $1.0 million. In connection with this acquisition, the Parent
issued $0.1 million in common membership units, which has been reflected as a
non-cash equity contribution from the Parent to the Company.

     The Company made twenty-one acquisitions between the merger on March 18,
1999 and December 31, 2000. These acquisitions were comprised of eleven in
market competitors, including four business music providers and seven marketing
on-hold/or in-store messaging providers, and ten franchises, for an aggregate
cash purchase price of $86.6 million, excluding transaction costs. Additionally,
the Parent issued $1.2 million and $16.0 million in common membership units in
conjunction with certain acquisitions in 2000 and 1999, respectively, which have
been reflected as a non-cash equity contribution from the Parent to the Company.

     The results of operations of the acquired companies are included in the
Company's consolidated statement of operations for the periods in which they
were owned by the Company.

     The acquisitions were accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. Accordingly, the consideration was allocated to the net assets
acquired based on the fair market values at the date of acquisition. The excess
of purchase price for each acquisition over the estimated fair value of the
tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired approximated $158.5 million
and is being amortized over a period of twenty years on a straight-line basis.
The Company will adopt SFAS 142 on January 1, 2002, and as a result, will no
longer amortize goodwill and other indefinite life intangibles.

Senior Credit Facility

     In March 1999, the Company entered into a senior credit facility ("Senior
Credit Facility") consisting of: (i) a term loan facility in the amount of $30.0
million payable in semi-annual installments until final maturity on December 31,
2005 ("Term Loan A"); (ii) a term loan facility in the amount of $105.0 million
payable in semi-annual installments until final maturity on December 31, 2006
("Term Loan B") (together with Term Loan A, the "Term Loans"); and (iii) a
revolving loan (the "Revolving Loan") in an aggregate principal amount of up to
$35.0 million terminating on December 31, 2005. In July 1999, the Company
amended the Senior Credit Facility which increased the principal amount of the
Term Loan B by $30.0 million to $135.0 million. The Company had $13.3 million of
borrowing availability under its revolving loan as of December 31, 2001.
Availability under the revolving loan has been reduced by outstanding letters of
credit of $0.4 million.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     The Senior Credit Facility is guaranteed by the Company and certain 100%
owned subsidiaries. The non-guarantor subsidiary is minor and the consolidated
amounts in the Company's financial statements would be representative of the
combined guarantors. The Senior Credit Facility contains restrictive covenants
including maintenance of interest, senior and total leverage, and fixed charge
ratios, and various other restrictive covenants which are customary for such
facilities. In addition, the Company is generally prohibited from incurring
additional indebtedness, incurring liens, paying dividends or making other
restricted payments, consummating asset sales, entering into transactions with
affiliates, merging or consolidating with any other person or selling assigning,
transferring, leasing, conveying, or otherwise disposing of assets. These
conditions, with the exception of the capital expenditure covenant, were
satisfied as of December 31, 2001. The Company exceeded its capital expenditures
covenant in 2001. On March 8, 2002, the Company received a waiver from the
requisite lenders with respect to the capital expenditures covenant. The Company
believes that it will be in compliance with these financial covenants and
restrictions during 2002.

     Indebtedness under the Term Loan A and the Revolving Loans bear interest at
a per annum rate equal to the Company's choice of (i) the Alternate Base Rate
(which is the highest of prime rate and the Federal Funds Rate plus .5%) plus a
margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.50% or (ii) the offered rates for Eurodollar
deposits ("LIBOR") of one, two, three, or six months, as selected by the
Company, plus a margin ranging from 2.5% to 3.5%. Margins, which are subject to
adjustment based on the changes in the Company's ratio of consolidated total
debt to EBITDA (i.e., earnings before interest, taxes, interest, depreciation,
amortization and other non cash charges) were 2.25% in the case of Alternate
Base Rate and 3.25% in the case of LIBOR as of December 31, 2001. Indebtedness
under the Term Loan B bears interest at a per annum rate equal to the Company's
choice of (i) the Alternate Base Rate (as described above) plus a margin of 2.5%
or (ii) LIBOR of one, two, three, or six months, as selected by the Company plus
a margin of 4.0%. The weighted average rate of interest on the Senior Credit
Facility, including the effects of the interest rate swap, was 8.74% and 10.2%
at December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

     In March 2002, the Company entered into the sixth amendment under the
Senior Credit Facility which increased its aggregate revolving loan commitment
under the Senior Credit Facility by $20.0 million, for a total commitment of
$55.0 million, and amended certain financial covenants and applicable margins.
In March 2002, the Company borrowed $10.0 million from MEM Holdings LLC in the
form of junior subordinated unsecured notes ("Sponsor Notes"), the proceeds of
which were used to repay outstanding revolving loan balances. The notes accrue
interest at 15% per annum; any accrued interest not paid as of March 31, June
30, September 30, or December 31 will bear interest at 15% per annum until such
interest is paid or extinguished. The sponsor notes are junior and subordinate
to payments for the Senior Credit Facility, and the Senior subordinated notes.
At any time, the sponsor notes may be converted into class A-2 units of the
Company at the direction of MEM Holdings. If the sponsor notes have not been
repaid in full as of September 2003, the sponsor notes will automatically be
converted into class A-2 units of the Company.

     On May 15, 2001 the Company entered into the fifth amendment in which,
among other things, the parties amended the interest coverage ratios for the
quarter ended March 31, 2001 and with respect to future periods.

     The Senior Credit Facility includes a provision that enabled the Company on
no more than three occasions prior to December 31, 2000, to increase either the
revolving loan or the Term Loan B amounts by an amount not in excess of $50
million. In accordance with this provision, on December 29, 2000, the Company
increased its borrowings under the Term Loan B of the Senior Credit Facility by
$10.0 million, for a total amount borrowed under Term Loan B of $145.0 million.

Senior Subordinated Notes

     On March 18, 1999, Muzak LLC together with its wholly owned subsidiary,
Muzak Finance Corp., co-issued $115.0 million in principal amount of 9 7/8%
Senior Subordinated Notes ("Senior Subordinated Notes") which mature on March
15, 2009. Interest is payable semi-annually, in arrears, on March 15 and
September 15 of each year. The Senior Subordinated Notes are general unsecured
obligations of the Company and Muzak Finance and are subordinated in right of
payment to all existing and future Senior Indebtedness of the Company and Muzak
Finance. The Senior Subordinated Notes are guaranteed by MLP Environmental Music
LLC, Business Sound Inc., BI Acquisition LLC, Audio Environments Inc.,
Background Music Broadcasters Inc., Muzak Capital Corporation, Telephone Audio
Productions Inc., Muzak Houston Inc., Vortex Sound Communications Company Inc.,
and Music Incorporated. The Company's non-guarantor subsidiary is minor and the
consolidated amounts in the Company's financial statements are representative of
the combined guarantors. The indenture governing the Senior Subordinated Notes
prohibits the Company from making certain payments such as dividends and
distributions of their capital stock; repurchases or redemptions of their
capital stock, and investments (other than permitted investments) unless certain
conditions are met by the Company. Before March 15, 2002, the issuers may redeem
up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued under
the indenture at a redemption price of 109.875% of the aggregate principal
amount so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date,
with the net proceeds of one or more equity offerings if certain conditions are
met. After March 15, 2004, the issuers may redeem all or part of the Notes at a
redemption price equal to 104.938% of the principal which redemption price
declines to 100% of the principal amount in 2007.

Senior Discount Notes

                               MUZAK HOLDINGS LLC

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

      On March 18, 1999, the Company together with its wholly owned subsidiary
Muzak Holdings Finance Corp., co-issued $75.0 million in principal amount at
maturity, or $39.9 million in accreted value on the issue date, of 13% Senior
Discount Notes (the "Senior Discount Notes") due March 2010. Cash interest on
the Senior Discount Notes does not accrue and is not payable prior to March 15,
2004. The Senior Discount Notes were issued at a substantial discount from their
principal amount at maturity. Until March 15, 2004, the Senior Discount Notes
will accrete in value such that the accreted value on March 15, 2004 will equal
the principal amount at maturity of the Senior Discount Notes. From and after
March 15, 2004, interest on the Senior Discount Notes will accrue at a rate of
13% per annum. Interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears on each March
15 and September 15, commencing September 15, 2004, to holders of record of the
Senior Discount Notes at the close of business on the immediately preceding
March 1 and September 1.


Related Party Notes

     From July 1, 1999 through November 24, 1999, the Company borrowed an
aggregate amount of $30.0 million, from MEM Holdings LLC in the form of Junior
Subordinated Unsecured Notes (the "sponsor notes"). MEM Holdings is a Company
that owns 64.2% of the voting interests in the Parent. ABRY Broadcast Partners
III and ABRY Broadcast Partners II are the beneficial owners of MEM Holdings.

     The Company repaid the $3.0 million sponsor note with the proceeds from its
preferred membership unit offering in October 2000. The remaining $27.0 million,
plus $6.7 million of accrued interest, was converted into Class A units of the
Company in May 2001.


Other Debt

     The Company purchased ElectroSystems on February 24, 1999. ElectroSystems
had outstanding several promissory notes, totaling $2.4 million as of the
acquisition date. All of the notes, with the exception of one, bear interest at
9.887% and mature in November 2016. ElectroSystems is required to make interest
only payments on a monthly basis through October 2006, and principal and
interest payments for the remainder of the term. The Note terms are the same for
all but one of the notes. This note bears interest at 8% with principal and
interest payments due monthly until maturity in October 2006.

Liquidity

     The Company's principal sources of funds will continue to be cash flows
from operations and borrowings under the senior credit facility. As of December
31, 2001, the Company had outstanding debt of $187.5 million under its senior
credit facility, with additional available borrowings of up to $13.3 million.
Based upon current and anticipated levels of operations, the Company believes
that its cash flows from operations, combined with availability under the senior
credit facility, as amended, will be adequate to meet its liquidity needs for
the forseeable future. The Company is continuing its efforts to reduce accounts
receivable and inventory balances, while implementing additional cost-saving
initiatives. Overall, the Company's business plan anticipates continued growth
in new client locations and operational improvements. The Company's future
performance is subject to industry based factors such as the level of
competition in the business music industry, competitive pricing, concentrations
in and dependence on satellite delivery capabilities, rapid technological
changes, the impact of legislation and regulation, its dependence on license
agreements and other factors that are beyond its control.

Annual Maturities

     Annual maturities of long-term debt obligations are as follows (in
thousands):

            2002 ..............................................       $ 6,775
            2003 ..............................................         7,855
            2004 ..............................................        27,742
            2005 ..............................................        64,233
            2006 ..............................................        81,699
            Thereafter ........................................       173,616

     Total interest paid by the Company on all indebtedness was $28.9 million,
$36.5 million, and $14.1 million for the years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and
1999, respectively.

Interest Rate Protection Programs

     During April 1999, the Company entered into a four year interest rate swap
agreement in which the Company effectively exchanged $100.0 million of floating
rate debt at three month LIBOR for 5.59% fixed rate debt. The effect of this
interest rate protection agreement on the operating results of the Company was
to increase interest expense by $67 thousand for the year ended December 31,
1999. The Company terminated this agreement on January 28, 2000 and received
approximately $4.4 million for this agreement. The proceeds are being recorded
an as adjustment to interest expense over the term of the new interest rate swap
agreement.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     On January 28, 2000, the Company entered into a new interest rate swap
agreement in which the Company effectively exchanged $100.0 million of floating
rate debt at three month LIBOR for 7.042% fixed rate debt. The interest rate
swap agreement terminates on April 19, 2002. This agreement is designated as a
hedge of interest rates, and the differential to be paid or received on the swap
is accrued as an adjustment to interest expense as interest rates change. The
Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the other
party to the swap agreement. However, the Company does not anticipate
nonperformance by the counterparty. The effect of this interest rate protection
agreement on the operating results of the Company was to increase interest
expense by $2.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2001.


Fair Value of Financial Instruments

     The estimated fair values of the Company's debt as of December 31, 2001 and
December 31, 2000 were $331.8 million and $348.0 million, respectively. The fair
value of the Senior Notes and Senior Discount Notes are based upon quoted market
price. The fair value of the other long-term debt of the Company approximates
the carrying value.

     The fair value of the interest rate swap agreement was a loss of
approximately $2.5 million as of December 31, 2001. The fair values of interest
rate swaps are obtained from dealer quotes which represents the estimated amount
the Company would receive or pay to terminate agreements taking into
consideration current interest rates and creditworthiness of the counterparties.

7. Mandatorily Redeemable Preferred Units

     On October 18, 2000, the Company completed a private placement of 85,000
series A preferred membership units ("preferred units") and 5,489 Class A common
units for a total of $85 million.

     The $85.0 million in proceeds was allocated as follows: (i) $5.5 million
to Class A units, and (ii) $77.1 million to the preferred units, net of
commitment fees and transaction costs of $2.4 million. The outstanding preferred
units are entitled to receive a preferential return equal to 15% per annum,
which accrues and is compounded quarterly, before any distributions are made
with respect to any other common units. The discount between the amount
allocated to the preferred units of $77.1 million and the $85.0 million in
capital value is being amortized over the period from the date of issuance to
October 17, 2011. The amortization of the discount and the preferential return
on the preferred units is being recorded as an adjustment to members' interest.

     The Company has the option to redeem the preferred units under the terms of
the Securities Purchase Agreement, at any time after a qualified initial public
offering or change of control or after October 18, 2003, in whole or in part, at
an amount equal to the unreturned capital contribution of $85.0 million plus
accrued preferential returns plus a prepayment premium. For redemptions upon a
qualified initial public offering or change of control, the prepayment premium
may be up to 5% of an amount based on the amount distributed in the redemption
and for redemptions after October 18, 2003, the prepayment premium may be up to
6% of such amount.

     The holders of the preferred units have the option to cause the Company to
redeem their preferred units under the terms of the Securities Purchase
Agreement at any time after October 17, 2011 or upon a change of control. In
addition, upon a change of control, the holders of the preferred units have the
option to cause the Company to redeem all or any portion of the purchased Class
A Units under the terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement. All of the
redemptions at the option of the holders of the preferred units are subject to a
prepayment premium of up to 5% based on the amount distributed in the
redemption.

     For all of the foregoing redemptions, whether at the option of the Company
or the holders of the preferred units, the Company may only make such redemption
if it does not violate the terms of any debt agreements of the Company or of
which the Company is a guarantor, including the indenture governing the Senior
Discount Notes, the indenture governing the Senior Notes and the Senior Credit
Agreement.

     On May 8, 2001, the Company entered into the first amendment to the
Securities Purchase Agreement which entitled the holders of the preferred units
to receive additional Class A units for anti-dilution purposes upon the
conversion of any sponsor notes that were outstanding as of October 18, 2000. In
connection with this conversion of $27.0 million sponsor notes plus accrued
interest into Class A units in May 2001, the Company issued 1,769 Class A units
to the holders of the preferred units.

     The Securities Purchase Agreement contains certain financial covenants
including maintenance of interest, total leverage, adjusted annualized operating
cash flow, and maximum consolidated capital expenditures. In addition, the
Company is generally prohibited from paying dividends or making other
restrictive payments, certain transactions with affiliates, entering into
restrictive agreements, and from consolidating with any other person or
selling, assigning, transferring, leasing, conveying or otherwise disposing of
assets. These conditions, with the exception of the capital expenditure covenant
and the total leverage covenant, were satisfied as of December 31, 2001.

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     On March 8, 2002, the Company entered into the second amendment to the
Securities Purchase Agreement which amended the consolidated capital expenditure
covenant for 2001 and allowed for an increase to consolidated operating cash
flow for amounts designated by the Company with respect to license fees up to a
certain amount. As a result of the amendment, the Company was in compliance with
all covenants as of December 31, 2001.

     If there are violations of financial covenants which are not waived or
amended, the holders of the preferred membership units would be entitled to
receive a preferential return equal to 17% per annum, as opposed to 15%, which
would accrue quarterly, as long as the violation is continuing. However, if
there were a violation that continued for a period of one year, the holders of
the preferred membership units would also be entitled to two Class B director
seats on the Board of Directors.


8.   Lease Commitments

     The Company is the lessee under various long-term operating and capital
leases for machinery, equipment, buildings, and vehicles for periods ranging
from 2 years to 17 years. The Company has also entered into various agreements
to lease transponders to transmit music programs via direct broadcast satellite.
The majority of these leases contain renewal provisions.

     At December 31, 2001, future minimum lease payments under operating and
capital leases are as follows (in thousands):

     The Company maintains a defined contribution plan. Substantially all
employees are covered under a plan whereby eligible employees may contribute up
to 14% of their compensation per year, subject to certain tax law restrictions.
The Company makes matching contributions of 60% of the first 6% of the total
base salary contributed by the employee each year. Participants are immediately
vested in their contributions as well as the employer's contributions.

     Plan expense was $1.5 million, $1.4 million, and $0.8 million, for the
years ended December 31, 2001, 2000 and 1999, respectively.

11.  Related Party Transactions

     During October 1998, the Company entered into a Management and Consulting
Services Agreement, as amended and restated as of March 18, 1999 ("Management
Agreement") with ABRY Partners which provides that the Company will pay a
management fee as defined in the Management Agreement. During both 2001 and
2000, the Company incurred fees of $0.3 million under this agreement. There were
no fees incurred under the agreement during 1999. Either the Company or ABRY
Partners, with the approval of the Board of Directors of the Parent, may
terminate the Management Agreement by prior written notice to the other.

     During fiscal 1999, Muzak LLC borrowed $30.0 million from MEM Holdings
under junior subordinated notes. The Company repaid the $3.0 million Sponsor
Note during 2000. The remaining $27.0 million, plus $6.7 million of accrued
interest, was converted into Class A units of the Company in May 2001.

12.  Muzak Holdings Finance Corp.

     Muzak Holdings Finance Corp. is a co-issuer of the Senior Discount Notes
and had no operating activities during the twelve months ended December 31,
2001.

13.  Members' Interest

     The Company has issued two classes of equity units: Class A units ("Class A
units") and Class B units ("Class B units") (collectively, the "units"). Each
class of units represents a fractional part of the membership units of the
Company.

Voting Units

         The Company has authorized and issued Class A, Class A-1, and
Class A-2 units. The Class A-1 and Class A-2 units represent a class of
membership interests in the Company and have the rights and obligations
specified in the Company's Fourth Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company
Agreement. Each Class A, A-1 and A-2 unit is entitled to voting rights equal to
the percentage that such units represent of the aggregate number of outstanding
Class A, Class A-1, and Class A-2 units. Each Class A, Class A-1 and Class A-2
unit accrues a preferred return annually on the capital value of such unit at a
rate of 15% per annum. The Company cannot pay distributions (other than tax
distributions or distributions related to the mandatorily redeemable preferred
stock) in respect of other classes of securities (including distributions made
in connection with a liquidation) until the preferred return and capital value
of the Class A, Class A-1, and Class A-2 units are paid to each holder
thereof. In the event any residual value exists after other classes of
membership interests receive their respective priorities, holders of Class A ,
Class A-1, and Class A-2 units are entitled to participate pro rata with other
holders of common units in such residual value. As of December 31, 2001, the
Company had 123,494 Class A units outstanding and 8,928 Class A-1 units
outstanding. There were no outstanding Class A-2 units as of December 31, 2001.

   Non Voting Units

         The Class B units are non-voting equity interests in the Company which
are divided into four subclasses, Class B-1 units, Class B-2 units, Class B-3
units, and Class B-4 units. Each holder of Class B units is entitled to
participate in Last Priority Distributions, if any, provided that Priority
Distributions on all voting interests have been paid in full. The Company is
authorized to issue Class B-5 units, however no B-5 units are outstanding as of
December 31, 2001. The Class B-1 units, B-2 units, and B-3 units have a vesting
period of five years, and the Class B-4 units vest immediately upon issuance.
Upon a change in control, as defined, all of these units become fully vested and
exercisable. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had 2,500 and 3,261
B-1 units outstanding, respectively. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the
Company had 2,508 and 3,269 B-2 units outstanding, respectively. As of December
31, 2001 and 2000 the Company had 2,516 and 3,278 B-3 units outstanding,
respectively. As of December 31, 2001 and 2000, the Company had 3,002 B-4 units
outstanding. Pursuant to the terms of certain individual employment agreements,
the Company has provided key employees with equity units of the Company. In the
event of employee termination, the Company retains the right to repurchase
unvested units at the original purchase price. Units vest over five years.

   Litigation

     The Company is involved in various claims and lawsuits arising out of the
normal conduct of its business. Although the ultimate outcome of these legal
proceedings cannot be predicted with certainty, the management of the Company
believes that the resulting liability, if any, will not have a material effect
upon the Company's consolidated financial statements or liquidity.

     The industry wide agreement between business music providers and Broadcast
Music, Inc. "BMI" expired in December 1993. Since this time the Company has been
operating under an interim agreement pursuant to which the Company has continued
to pay royalties at the 1993 rates. Business music providers and BMI have been
negotiating the terms of a new agreement. The Company is involved in a rate
court proceeding, initiated by BMI in Federal Court in New York. At issue are
the music license fees payable by the Company and its owned operations as well
as licensed independent franchisees to BMI. The period from which such
"reasonable" license fees are payable covers the period January 1, 1994 to
December 31, 2001, and likely several years thereafter. BMI contends that those
fee levels understate reasonable fee levels by as much as 100%. The Company
vigorously contests BMI's assessment. The eventual court ruling setting final
fees for the period covered will require retroactive adjustment, upward or
downward, likely back to January 1, 1994, and possibly will also entail payment
of pre-judgment interest. Discovery in the proceeding has commenced and is not
yet completed. A trial date has not been set.

     The industry wide agreement between business music providers and American
Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers ("ASCAP") expired in May 1999.
Negotiations between ASCAP and the Company began in June 1999, and the Company
has continued to pay ASCAP royalties at the 1999 rates. We paid $8.0 million,
$8.6 million, and $4.1 million in royalties to ASCAP, BMI, and SESAC in 2001,
2000, and 1999, respectively.

     In October 1998 the Digital Millennium Copyright Act was enacted. The Act
provides for a statutory license for digital copies granted from the copyright
owner of the master recordings. Ephemeral copies refer to temporary copies of
master sound recordings made to enable or facilitate the digital transmission of
such recordings. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act did not specify the rate
and terms of the license. As a result, the United States Copyright Office
convened a Copyright Arbitration Royalty Panel to recommend an ephemeral royalty
rate, and such Panel published a report that was released in February 2002.

     The Panel recommended an ephemeral royalty rate of ten percent (10%) of
gross proceeds applicable to the use of ephemeral copies of copyrighted
recordings. That recommendation is now subject to the review of the Librarian of
Congress, who can either modify or adopt such recommendation. Upon publication
of the Librarian's determination in the Federal Register, such determination may
further be appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit.

                               MUZAK HOLDINGS LLC

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

     Since a final determination has yet to be published by the Librarian of
Congress and an appeal of any such final determination may arise after such
publication, we cannot currently predict what the ultimate ephemeral royalty
rate or license terms are likely to be. As a result, we cannot predict the
extent of our exposure for retroactive royalty payments dating back to October
1998 under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. However with respect to future
revenue, we believe our exposure is minimal, as we believe our current satellite
technologies do not require use of ephemeral copies. Nonetheless, there can be
no assurances that the collective for the copyright owners, the Record Industry
Association of America, will refrain from investigating or otherwise challenging
the applicability of the statute to our satellite technologies.

   Other Commitments

     As of December 31, 2001, the Company has approximately $32.4 million in
outstanding capital expenditure commitments covering a five-year period. The
Company, as discussed in Note 8 above, is the lessee under various operating and
capital leases for equipment, vehicles, satellite capacity, and buildings.

(a) The fourth quarter of 2001 includes a $1.2 million charge related to a
    license fee audit.
(b) The first quarter of 2001 includes a charge of $0.7 million related to the
    postponed private placement of Senior Subordinated Notes.

     Historically, Muzak has experienced slight seasonality in its equipment and
related services revenues and costs of revenues resulting primarily from a
significant retail client base which constructs and opens new retail stores in
time for the fourth quarter holiday season. Accordingly, Muzak experiences
higher equipment and related services revenues and costs of goods in the third
and fourth quarters, as opposed to the first half of the year, as a result of
the installation and servicing of these new retail locations. However, this
seasonality was less of a factor during 2001 due to less capital spending
associated with a reduction in new location store build outs among national
clients, particularly within the retail sector.
