Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

At the special meeting of the shareholders of Entercom Communications Corp., a Pennsylvania corporation (“Entercom” or the “Company”), held on November 15, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time (the “Special Meeting”), the shareholders approved the following proposals:

 

  1. Proposal to approve the Share Issuance of Entercom Class A Common Stock as contemplated in the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated February 2, 2017 and as amended July 10, 2017 and September 13, 2017, by and among the Company, Constitution Merger Sub Corp., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Merger Sub”), CBS Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“CBS”) and CBS Radio Inc., a Delaware corporation and indirect wholly owned subsidiary of CBS (“Radio”), pursuant to which Merger Sub shall be merged with and into Radio, with Radio continuing as the surviving company and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Merger”).

 

  2. Proposal to approve the Classified Board Amendment to the Existing Entercom Articles to classify the Entercom board of directors following the Merger.

 

  3. Proposal to approve the FCC Amendment to the Existing Entercom Articles to permit the board of directors to (i) require certain information from shareholders and (ii) take certain actions in order to continue to comply with federal communications laws.

 

  4. Proposal to approve, on a non-binding, advisory basis, the Executive Compensation Proposal relating to certain compensation arrangements for Entercom’s named executive officers in connection with the Merger.

 

  5. Proposal to approve the Adjournment Proposal to adjourn or postpone the Special Meeting, if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies if there are not sufficient votes at the time of the Special Meeting to approve the Share Issuance or the Classified Board Amendment. Sufficient votes were received to approve this proposal; however, this proposal was not necessary following the approval of the Share Issuance (Proposal No. 1) and the Classified Board Amendment (Proposal No. 2), and was therefore not implemented.

Each proposal is described in detail in Entercom’s definitive proxy statement, dated October 16, 2017, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 16, 2017, and first mailed to Entercom’s shareholders on or about October 16, 2017. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the definitive proxy statement.

As of the close of business on the record date for the Special Meeting, which was October 12, 2017, there were 31,757,256 shares of Class A common stock of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting and 7,197,532 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Company outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.
