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.

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, 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 serve an installed base of approximately 320,000 client locations.

   Our two core products are Audio Architecture SM and Audio Marketing 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 2000, 96% of our revenues were generated
by our owned operations and the remaining 4% were generated from fees from our
franchisees and other sources.

   ABRY Partners, LLC formed Audio Communications Network LLC in October 1998
to acquire 8 Muzak franchises from Audio Communication Network, Inc., which we
refer to as Old Audio Communications Network. 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 10 franchises, for an aggregate cash purchase
price of $86.6 million. We seek attractive opportunities to acquire music
contract portfolios and complementary music and marketing on-hold and in-store
messaging businesses and will review the acquisitions of our own franchises if
they become available.

 Acquisitions

   In 1999, prior to the merger, the Company made the following acquisitions:

  . On January 15, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
    Business Sound, Inc. for approximately $4.1 million. Business Sound was
    the Company's independent franchisee for the New Orleans, Louisiana and
    Mobile, Alabama areas.

  . On February 24, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock
    of Electro Systems for approximately $0.7 million, and assumed certain
    non-recourse debt. Electro Systems was the Company's independent
    franchisee located in Panama City, Florida.


                                       3

   The Company made twenty-one acquisitions between the merger and December 31,

Financing Developments

   In January 2000, the Company entered into an indenture for up to $50.0
million Senior Subordinated Floating Rate Notes (the "Floating Rate Notes").
The Floating Rate Notes were available for drawdowns until July 31, 2000 and
proceeds from the issuance of Floating Rate Notes were used to fund
acquisitions. The Floating Rate Notes were redeemed at 101.5% on October 19,
2000.

   On October 18, 2000, the Company completed a private placement of Series A
preferred membership units ("preferred units") and Class A common units for a
total of $85.0 million. The Company used the proceeds as follows: (i) to repay
the Revolving Loan in full; (ii) to repay the Floating Rate Notes; (iii) to
repay $3.0 million of the 15% junior subordinated unsecured notes (the "sponsor
notes"); and (iv) to consummate two acquisitions.

   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. The proceeds were used for
repayments on the Senior Credit Facility as well as for general corporate
purposes.

   The Company is pursuing additional financing, the proceeds of which are
expected to be used as follows: (i) to repay the revolving loan in full; (ii)
to repay approximately $45.0 million of the term loans; (iii) to repay the
sponsor notes; (iv) to consummate several acquisitions; and (vi) to fund
internal growth. There can be no assurances the Company will obtain such
financing, or of the terms thereof.

Products

   The Company's core products are Audio Architecture and Audio Marketing. The
Company believes that its clients use its 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.

   Audio Architecture is business music programming designed to enhance a
client's brand image. Our in-house staff of audio architects analyzes 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, 2000, our owned operations provided our Audio Architecture
product to approximately 167,000 client locations.

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.

   In connection with the sale of our Audio Architecture and Audio Marketing
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 have recently expanded our 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. As of
December 2000, we had approximately 7,100 drive-thru client locations.

   The Company's net sales of Audio Architecture, Audio Marketing and drive-
thru systems service were $100.8 million, $18.3 million, and $4.4 million,
respectively in 2000.

Nationwide Franchise Network

   We have a nationwide franchise network that divides the country into 168
affiliate territories, of which 56 are served by our owned operations and the
remaining 112 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 Audio Marketing products, as well as other products such as
Dayparting and Weekparting. The franchisee is also permitted to use our
registered marks 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
Audio Marketing products.

   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.

                                       6

Distribution Systems

   We transmit our offerings through various mediums including direct broadcast
satellite transmission, local broadcast transmission, audio and videotapes and
compact discs. During 2000, the Company served its music client locations
through the following means: approximately 78% through direct broadcast
satellite
transmission, approximately 14% through local broadcast technology, and
approximately 8% 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. The term of our principal transponder lease with Microspace is
projected to end in 2005.

   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 the
Company which are distributed by EchoStar to commercial subscribers. The term
of each of our agreements with EchoStar is projected to end 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 AEI Music
Network, Inc., DMX MUSIC and Music Choice. 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(R) 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. On September 25, 2000, Liberty
Digital Inc., the parent company of DMX MUSIC, announced that AEI Music Network
and DMX MUSIC plan to merge, and that the closing of the merger is subject to
receiving necessary consents and government approvals and satisfying other
closing conditions. If this merger is consummated, the Company could be faced
with a larger competitor than any previously faced.

   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,

                                       7
<PAGE>

 . 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. 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.

Music Licenses

   We license rights to re-record and distribute music from a variety of
sources and pays 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 by us
and our 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, 2000, 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 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 February 25,
2000, 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 2000, we paid approximately $8.6 million in royalties to ASCAP, BMI and
SESAC. Increases in the fees we must pay under these agreements could adversely
affect our operating margin, and, therefore, our results of operations.

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, 2000, we had 1,349 full-time and 46 part-time employees.
Approximately 140 of our technical and service personnel are covered by
thirteen union contracts, twelve of which are with the International
Brotherhood of Electrical Workers and one with Communication Workers of
America. Eight of the contracts expire on dates ranging from August 31, 2001 to
February 28, 2003. Five of the contracts, covering 62 employees, expired in
2000. Negotiations on these expired arrangements are progressing and are in
various stages of completion, with the parties currently having reached
agreements-in-principal to the material terms of two contracts covering 17
employees. Management believes that Muzak's relations with its employees and
with the unions that represent them are generally good.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

   The Company relocated its headquarters to a leased facility in Fort Mill,
South Carolina on October 31, 2000 and it consists of approximately 100,000
square feet which accommodates our executive offices, operations, national
sales, marketing, technical, finance and administrative staffs. We also have
approximately 66 local sales offices in various locations, and leases 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 these facilities is leased and the remainder is owned.

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

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

   The Company 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 the Company, would have a material adverse effect on
the consolidated financial condition or results of operations of the Company.

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

   None.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANTS' COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS

   Muzak is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Company does not have
an established public trading market for its equity securities. The equity
securities of the Company are held by MEM Holdings LLC, AMFM Systems Inc., New
York Life Capital Partners, Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Company, and
BancAmerica Capital Investors I, L.P., and by current or former management.
ABRY Broadcast Partners III and ABRY Broadcast Partners II are the beneficial
owners of MEM Holdings.

   The Company's bank agreement, the indentures with respect to the Senior
Subordinated Notes of the Company, the indenture with respect to the Company's
Senior Discount Notes, and the Securities Purchase Agreement between the
Company and BancAmerica Capital Investors I, L.P, and various Investors,
restrict the ability of the Company and Muzak to make dividends and
distributions in respect of their equity.

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

General

   ABRY Partners formed Audio Communications Network LLC in October 1998 to
acquire 8 Muzak franchises from Audio Communication Network, Inc., which we
refer to as Old Audio Communications Network. 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 10 franchises, for an aggregate cash purchase
price of $86.6 million. We seek attractive opportunities to acquire music
contract portfolios and complementary music and marketing on-hold and in-store
messaging businesses and will review the acquisitions of our own franchises if
they become available.

                                       11
<PAGE>

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 serve an
installed base of approximately 320,000 client locations.

   Our two core products are Audio Architecture and Audio Marketing. 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.

   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 top ten clients
include McDonald's, The Gap, Eckerd, Kinko's and Burger King. 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.

   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, sales commissions and 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 Audio Marketing client generated by our owned operations, we
make an initial one-time investment of approximately $611 (including equipment,
installation labor, sales commissions and 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 Audio Marketing 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 an Audio Marketing client. The initial one-time
investment for a new Audio Architecture or Audio Marketing 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
71.9% of our total revenue in 2000, while equipment and other services revenue
represented the remaining 28.1% of our total revenue in 2000. Sales of our
Audio Architecture and Audio Marketing products by our owned operations
represented 52.5% and 9.5% of total revenue, respectively.

 Revenues

   Our music and other business services revenue is generated from:

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

 . fees received from franchisees related to Audio Architecture, Audio
   Marketing 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.

                                       12
<PAGE>

   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.

 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, sales
commissions and net of installation fees) is approximately $1,190 and $611 per
Audio Architecture and Audio Marketing 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.

Results of Operations

   Set forth below are discussions of the results of operations for Muzak
Holdings LLC and Audio Communications Network, Inc. for the periods indicated.

 Muzak Holdings LLC--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.

                                       13

   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 Audio Marketing
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 Audio Marketing and 4,100 drive-thru
client locations. During this same period, we added 11,685 Audio Architecture
and 1,418 Audio Marketing 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 42.4%.
Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 35.8% and 37.1% 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 72.9%. 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, net of interest income, was $46.1
million and $29.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999,
respectively, an increase of 56.7%. The increase in interest expense during
2000 is due to the Company'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
175% and related to the Company's corporate subsidiaries. The Company 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.

 Muzak Holdings LLC--Year Ended December 31, 1999

   We did not compare the results for the year ended December 31, 1999 to the
prior period as the prior period does not include a full year of operations and
we made numerous material acquisitions during 1999. As a result, the comparison
of 1999 to the period October 7, 1998 to December 31, 1998 is not meaningful.

                                       14
<PAGE>

   Revenues. Revenues totaled $130.0 million for the year ended December 31,
1999, comprised of $92.1 million business music revenues and $37.9 million
equipment and related services. Business music revenues and equipment and
related revenues from the acquisitions subsequent to the merger were $5.0
million and $1.0 million, respectively.

   Cost of Revenues. Cost of revenues was $48.3 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999. Cost of revenues as a percentage of revenues was 37.1% for
the year ended December 31, 1999.

   Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses were $42.5 million, comprised of $16.5 million of sales
and marketing expenses and $26.0 million of general and administrative
expenses. Duplicative facilities and expenses related to integrating the
businesses of Muzak and Old Muzak resulted in an increase in selling, general
and administrative expenses during 1999. As a percentage of total revenues,
selling, general and administrative expenses were 32.7% for the year ended
December 31, 1999.

   Depreciation and Amortization Expense. Depreciation and amortization was
$36.5 million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Amortization expense
generally increased in the quarters throughout 1999 due to the intangibles
related to acquisitions during 1999.

   Interest Expense. Interest expense, net of interest income, was $29.4
million for the year ended December 31, 1999. Interest expense was comprised
primarily of expenses related to the 9 7/8% senior subordinated notes and to
the senior credit facility.

   Income Tax Benefit. Income tax benefit was $0.4 million for the year ended
December 31, 1999 and related to the Company corporate subsidiaries. The
Company is a limited liability company and is treated as a partnership for
income tax purposes.

 Muzak Holdings LLC--Period From October 7, 1998 to December 31, 1998

   Revenues totaled $5.9 million for the period ended December 31, 1998,
comprised primarily of business music revenues. For the same period, cost of
revenues totaled $2.6 million. Total selling, general and administrative
expenses for the period totaled $1.8 million, comprised principally of salary,
benefits and overhead expenses.

 Audio Communications Network, Inc.--Period From January 1, 1998 to October 6,
 1998

comprised primarily of business music revenues. For the same period, cost of
revenues totaled $8.2 million. Total selling, general and administrative
expenses for the period totaled $7.2 million, comprised primarily of salary,
benefits and overhead expenses.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

   Our principal sources of funds have been borrowings under the senior credit
facility and other indebtedness, cash generated from operations and proceeds
from equity contributions. During the year ended December 31, 2000, $4.5
million of cash was used in our operating activities, $89.0 million of cash was
used in investing activities, and $94.3 million of cash was provided by
financing activities. Cash was used during 2000 to pay down the senior credit
facility, redeem the senior subordinated floating rate notes, repay $3.0
million of the sponsor notes, make acquisitions, make investments relating to
new client locations and for general corporate purposes.

   We expect that our principal uses of funds from operating activities and
borrowings will be the funding of growth in new client locations, interest and
principal payments on our indebtedness, net working capital

                                       15
<PAGE>

increases and acquisitions. We believe that our cash flows from operations and
our current borrowing availability will be sufficient to fund operations and
investments associated with new client locations, but excluding acquisitions,
through December 31, 2001. In addition, we believe that the cash flows from
operations and current borrowing availability will be sufficient to fund
operations, excluding acquisitions and investments associated with new client
locations, for the foreseeable future.

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, 2000, our total initial
investment in new client locations was $56.4 million which was comprised of
equipment and installation costs attributable to new client locations of $38.0
million and $18.4 million in sales commissions 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
2000 was approximately $4.5 million, including approximately $3.5 million that
we incurred in connection with the build-out of our new headquarters facility
in Fort Mill, South Carolina.

   We currently anticipate that for fiscal 2001 our total initial investment in
new client locations will be approximately $68.0 million including $43.0
million of equipment and installation costs attributable to new client
locations, and $25.0 million in sales commissions relating to new client
locations.

   Debt Maturities. The current maturities of long-term debt primarily consist
of the current portion of the senior credit facility and other miscellaneous
debt. The maturities of long-term debt of our operations during 2001, 2002,
2003, 2004, and 2005 are $5.2 million, $6.8 million, $7.9 million, $27.8
million and $43.1 million, respectively. In addition, the senior credit
facility provides for mandatory prepayments with net cash proceeds of certain
asset sales, net cash proceeds of permitted debt issuances, net cash proceeds
from insurance recovery and condemnation events, and beginning December 31,
2000 the senior credit facility requires annual excess cash repayments. 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, Muzak 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.

   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. 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 (6.58% and 9.00% respectively, at December 31, 2000)
would impact interest costs by approximately $0.4 million annually on the
senior credit facility.

                                       16
<PAGE>

Seasonality

   Muzak experiences 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.

Inflation and Changing Prices

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

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 its exposure to interest rate movements and to
reduce borrowing rates.

   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.

and its subsidiaries (the "Company"), formally known as ACN Holdings, LLC, at
December 31, 2000 and 1999 and the results of their operations and their cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 2000 and 1999 and for the period from
October 7, 1998 to December 31, 1998, in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America. These financial statements
are the responsibility of the Company's management; our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We
conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with auditing standards
generally accepted in the United States of America, which require that we plan

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.

                 NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

   Organization--Muzak Holdings LLC and its subsidiaries (the "Company"),
formerly known as ACN Holdings, LLC, was formed in September 1998 pursuant to
the laws of Delaware. Muzak LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company,
provides business music programming to clients through its integrated
nationwide network of owned operations and franchisees. Muzak LLC began its
operations on October 7, 1998 with the acquisition of the independent
franchisees in the Baltimore, Charlotte, Hillsborough, Kansas City, St. Louis,
Jacksonville, Phoenix, and Fresno areas from Audio Communications Network, Inc.
(the "Predecessor Company"). On March 18, 1999, Muzak Limited Partnership ("Old
Muzak") merged with and into ACN. At the time of the merger, ACN changed its
name to Muzak LLC.

   As of December 31, 2000, ABRY Partners, LLC and its respective affiliates
collectively own approximately 62.4% 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
generally accepted accounting principles in the United States 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.

   Cash and cash equivalents--Cash and cash equivalents include all cash
balances and highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less. Book overdrafts of $5.3 million and $12.1 million as of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, respectively, are 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
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 two
lessors. The Company transmits 78% of its music programs via broadcast
satellite. Although alternate satellite capacity exists, loss of these
suppliers or satellite capacity could temporarily disrupt operations. The
Company attempts to mitigate these risks by working closely with the lessors
and by purchasing insurance to cover its increased costs in the event of
satellite failure.

   Inventories--Inventories consist primarily of electronic equipment and are
valued at the lower of cost or market, but not in excess of net realizable
value. 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, ranging from 3 to 30 years. 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 or the Predecessor Company for the periods presented.

                               MUZAK HOLDINGS LLC

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


   Intangible Assets--Goodwill, the excess of the purchase price over the fair
value of net assets of businesses acquired, is amortized over twenty years.
Income producing contracts, acquired through acquisition, are amortized over
periods ranging from 8-14 years. Other intangible assets are recorded at cost
and are being charged to amortization expense over the estimated useful lives
or the period of their expected benefit, ranging from five to twenty years.
Management evaluates the recoverability of intangibles by comparing recorded
values to the undiscounted future cash flows that can 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 or the Predecessor Company for the
periods presented.

   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 $30.6 million and
$18.0 million at December 31, 2000 and December 31, 1999, 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 performed.

   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 on a
straight-line basis over the term of the client contracts in the period
services are provided. 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.

   Recently Issued Accounting Standards--In June 1998, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
("SFAS No. 133"), "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging
Activities." SFAS No. 133 was amended in July 1999 by the issuance of Statement
of Accounting Standards No. 137 ("SFAS No. 137"), "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities- Deferral of the Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 133-An Amendment of FASB No. 133." SFAS No. 137 defers the
implementation of SFAS No. 133 by one year. SFAS No. 133 was further amended in
June 2000 by the issuance of Statement of Accounting Standards No. 138 ("SFAS
No. 138"), "Accounting for Certain Derivative Instruments and Certain Hedging
Activities--An amendment of FASB Statement No. 133." SFAS No. 138 further
clarifies the provisions of SFAS No. 133. SFAS No. 133, as amended, is
effective for fiscal quarters beginning after January 1, 2001 for the Company
and its adoption will result in the recognition of a $1.6 million liability.

   In December 1999, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") released
Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 101, ("SAB 101"), "Revenue Recognition in
Financial Statements," as amended by SAB 101B, which is

                                      F-8

                               MUZAK HOLDINGS LLC

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

effective no later than the year ended December 31, 2000. The bulletin
clarifies the SEC's views regarding recognition of revenue. The Company adopted
SAB 101 in the fourth quarter of 2000. The application of this guidance in SAB
101 did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations.

   Reclassifications--Certain prior year items have been reclassified to
conform with the fiscal 2000 presentation. Accounts receivable and advance
billings have been reduced by the amounts invoiced, but not received, in
advance of the service period. Book overdrafts have been reclassified as a
financing activity on the statement of cash flows.

2. Acquisitions

   On October 7, 1998, the Company acquired certain assets and liabilities of
ACN for $66.8 million. The acquisition was accounted for using the purchase
method of accounting. Accordingly, the consideration paid was allocated based
on the estimated fair market value of the net assets acquired. The excess of
the consideration paid over the estimated fair market value of the net assets
acquired approximated $17.0 million and is being amortized using the straight-
line method over twenty years.

   In order to complete the acquisition of ACN, the Company received a $8.4
million capital contribution, and issued notes payable to a related party of
$40.8 million to a member.

   As discussed in Note 1, on March 18, 1999 Old Muzak merged with and into
ACN. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company paid total consideration of
$274.2 million, which is comprised of the following: $125.5 million cash
consideration, $114.9 million consideration in the tender offer and consent
solicitation for the 10% Senior Notes due 2003 of Old Muzak, $15.9 million for
debt repayment of Old Muzak outstanding obligations and assumed $17.9 million
of other obligations. In addition, at the time of the merger, the Company
repaid $41.7 million borrowed from ABRY Broadcast Partners by ACN in October
1998 in connection with the acquisition of the Company's independent
franchisees from the Predecessor Company and converted $0.7 million into voting
units of the Company.

   In 1999, prior to the merger, the Company made the following acquisitions:

  . On January 15, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock of
    Business Sound, Inc. for approximately $4.1 million. Business Sound was
    the Company's independent franchisee for the New Orleans, Louisiana and
    Mobile, Alabama areas.

  . On February 24, 1999, the Company acquired all of the outstanding stock
    of Electro Systems for approximately $0.7 million. Electro Systems had
    outstanding several promissory notes totalling $2.4 million as of the
    acquisition date. Electro Systems was the Company's independent
    franchisee located in Panama City, Florida.

   The Company made twenty-one acquisitions between the merger on March 18,
1999 and December 31, 2000. The table below provides information regarding
these acquisitions (in millions, except for number of units).

    table. However, these costs have been included in the purchase price as
    reflected in the financial statements.
(2) Total purchase price included 100 Class A units of the Company.
(3) The Company paid $3.1 million of the purchase price of Mountain West Audio
    as of December 31, 1999. In February 2000, the Company paid the remaining
    purchase price, which included 456 Class A units of the Company.
(4) Total purchase price included 802 Class A units of 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 $158.2 million and is
being amortized over a period of twenty years on a straight-line basis.

 Senior Credit Facility

   In March 1999, the Company entered into a new 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. On October 26, 1999, the lenders pre-approved various forms of junior
capital to be raised at a later date. The forms of junior capital approved
included permitted sponsor subordinated debt from specified entities and
additional senior subordinated debt. The Company received $20.0 million in
permitted sponsor subordinated debt on November 8, 1999 and $7.0 million in
permitted sponsor subordinated debt on November 24, 1999.

   The Company was in violation of the total leverage and interest coverage
ratio covenants as of June 30, 2000 and obtained a waiver. In August 2000, the
Company amended the Senior Credit Facility as follows: (i) increased the
additional secured indebtedness permitted from $2.5 million to $9.0 million and
decreased the

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)

additional unsecured indebtedness permitted from $5.0 million to $1.0 million;
(ii) amended the interest coverage ratio for the quarters ended June 30, 2000,
September 30, 2000, and December 31, 2000 from 1.80x to 1.65x; and
(iii) increased the total capital expenditures permitted for fiscal 2000 from
$32.0 million to $38.0 million. In connection with each permitted acquisition
of a Muzak independent franchisee, the amount of permitted consolidated capital
expenditures for the 12 month period after the acquisition can be increased as
provided in the Senior Credit Facility.

   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.
The Company had $30.1 million of borrowing availability under its credit
agreement as of December 31, 2000. Availability under the revolving credit
facility has been reduced by outstanding letters of credit of $0.9 million.

   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, 2000. The Company exceeded its capital
expenditures covenant of $41.3 million by $1.3 million in 2000. On February 26,
2001, the Company received a waiver from the requisite lenders with respect to
the capital expenditures covenant.

   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 1.00% to 2.00% 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 2.0% to 3.0%. 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 2.0% in the case of Alternate
Base Rate and 3.0% in the case of LIBOR as of December 31, 2000. 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 3.5%. The weighted average rate of interest on the
Senior Credit Facility at December 31, 2000 was 10.2%.

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 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 Notes are general unsecured obligations of Muzak LLC and
Muzak Finance and are subordinated in right of payment to all existing and
future Senior Indebtedness of Muzak LLC and Muzak Finance. The Senior Notes are
guaranteed by the Company, 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

Company Inc., and Music Incorporated. Muzak LLC's non-guarantor subsidiary is
minor and the consolidated amounts in the Company's financial statements would
be representative of the combined guarantors financial statements. The
indenture governing the Senior Notes prohibits Muzak LLC from making certain
payments such as dividend 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 Muzak LLC. 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

   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.

Floating Rate Notes

   In January 2000, the Company entered into an indenture for up to $50.0
million Senior Subordinated Floating Rate Notes (the "Floating Rate Notes").
The Floating Rate Notes were redeemed at 101.50% on October 19, 2000.

   Indebtedness under the Floating Rate Notes bore interest at a rate equal to
3 month LIBOR plus a margin of 5.0% for the period from January 2000 through
July 31, 2000, and at a rate of 3 month LIBOR plus a margin of 7.5% for the
period from August 1, 2000 through October 19, 2000.

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 "ABRY Notes"). MEM Holdings is a company that
owns 62% 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 a $3.0 million ABRY Note with the proceeds from the private
placement of preferred membership units.

   The ABRY Notes mature on June 30, 2007, at which time principal and accrued
interest are due. Interest accrues 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 ABRY Notes are
junior and subordinate to payments for the Senior Credit Facility, and the
Senior Notes. At any time, all of the ABRY Notes may be converted into class A
units of the Company. If the ABRY Notes have not been repaid in full as of May,
2001, the ABRY Notes will automatically be converted into class A units of the
Company. Proceeds from the ABRY Notes were used to fund operations and
acquisitions.

   Total interest paid by the Company on all indebtedness was $36.5 million,
$14.1 million, $2.0 thousand, and $2.9 million, for the years ended December
31, 2000 and 1999, the period from October 7, 1998 through December 31, 1998,
and for the period from January 1, 1998 through October 6, 1998, 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 years 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.

   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 $0.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2000.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

   The estimated fair values of the Company's debt as of December 31, 2000 and
December 31, 1999 were $348.0 million and $334.5 million, respectively. The
fair value of the Senior Notes is 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 approximately ($1.6)
million as of December 31, 2000. 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 series A
preferred membership units ("preferred units") and Class A common units for a
total of $85 million. The Company used the proceeds (i) to repay the Revolving
Loan in full, (ii) to repay the Floating Rate Notes, (iii) to repay $3.0
million of the 15% junior subordinated unsecured notes, and (iv) to consummate
two acquisitions.

   In connection with this transaction, the Company issued 85,000 preferred
units and approximately 5,489 Class A units to investors pursuant to a
Securities Purchase Agreement. 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 or preferred units.

   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 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 Notes
and the Senior Credit Agreement.

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 15 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.

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 (the

incurred under the agreement during 1999 and for the period from October 7,
1998 to December 31, 1998. During 2000, the Company incurred fees of $0.3
million under this agreement. 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, the Company borrowed $30.0 million from MEM Holdings
under junior subordinated notes. The Company repaid the $3.0 million ABRY Note
during 2000. See Note 6 for a description of this related party note.

13. Members' Interest

            NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(Continued)


Voting Units

   The Company has authorized and issued Class A and Class A-1 units (Class A-1
Units). The Class A-1 Units represent a class of membership interests in the
Company and have the rights and obligations specified in the Company's Third
Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement. Each Class A and A-1
Unit is entitled to voting rights equal to the percentage that such units
represent of the aggregate number of outstanding Class A and Class A-1 Units.
Each Class A and Class A-1 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 Units and Class A-1
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 and Class A-1 Units are entitled to participate
pro rata with other holders of common units in such residual value. As of
December 31, 2000, the Company had 87,982 Class A units outstanding and 8,928
Class A-1 units outstanding.

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, 2000. 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, 2000 and 1999, the Company had 3,261 and
2,410 B-1 units outstanding, respectively. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999,
the Company had 3,269 and 2,429 B-2 units outstanding, respectively. As of
December 31, 2000 and 1999, the Company had 3,278 and 2,441 B-3 units
outstanding, respectively. As of December 31, 2000 and 1999, 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. At
December 31, 2000, 9,808 units of restricted equity are subject to the
repurchase provision. Of this amount, 1,244 units are vested.

14. Commitments and Contingencies

 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, 2000, 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

   In the first quarter of 1999, the Company misreported a $0.7 million
extraordinary gain on the extinguishment of debt related to the conversion of
certain related party debt and associated interest and goodwill by the same
amount related to the Old Muzak acquisition. The effect of the adjustment was
to eliminate the extraordinary gain and reduce goodwill by $0.7 million for the
quarter ended March 31, 1999.

   Muzak experiences 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.
