Explanation of Responses:

*	If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
**	Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1)	On May 16, 2007, the closing price of Issuer's common stock on the NYSE was $7.30. No consideration was paid by the Reporting Person in connection with this common stock.
(2)	Acquired in connection with the settlement of Restricted Stock Units upon which dividend equivalents accrued prior to vesting.
(3)	Grant of restricted stock units on May 16, 2006 that vest in equal one-third increments on May 16, 2007, 2008 and 2009. Accordingly on May 16, 2007, the 3,754 shares that vested on such date were settled by delivery of a corresponding number of shares of the Issuer's common stock. The restricted stock units convert on a "1 for 1" basis. One share of stock is distributed with respect to each vested restricted stock unit as soon as practicable following the earlier of the vesting date or the Reporting Person's "Termination" (as such term is defined in the Westwood One, Inc. 2005 Equity Compensation Plan).
