Controlled Company Exemption

We are a “controlled company” under rules governing the listing of our securities on the NASDAQ Stock Market because more than 50% of our voting power is held by Catherine L. Hughes, our Chairperson of the Board and Secretary, and Alfred C. Liggins, III, our CEO and President. See “Security Ownership of Beneficial Owners and Management” below. Therefore, we are not subject to NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules that would otherwise require us to have: (i) a majority of independent directors on the board; (ii) a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors; (iii) a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors; (iv) compensation of our executive officers determined by a majority of the independent directors or a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors; and (v) director nominees selected, or recommended for the board’s selection, either by a majority of the independent directors or a nominating committee composed solely of independent directors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The board has a standing audit committee, compensation committee and nominating committee.

Audit Committee

The audit committee consists of D. Geoffrey Armstrong, Brian W. McNeill and Dennis A. Miller, each of whom satisfies the requirements for audit committee membership under the listing standards of the NASDAQ Stock Market. Mr. Armstrong serves as Chairman of the audit committee. Each of the audit committee members is an “independent director”, as that term is defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules. The board of directors has determined that all of Mr. Armstrong, Mr. McNeill and Mr. Miller qualify as “audit committee financial experts,” as defined by Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K of the Securities Act of 1933. The board has adopted a written audit committee charter, which is available on our website at www.radio-one.com/about/audit_committee.asp. The audit committee met six times during the calendar year ended December 31, 2012.

The audit committee is responsible for oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting, auditing and reporting practices of Radio One, and as part of this responsibility the audit committee:

• selects our independent registered public accounting firm;

• reviews the services performed by our independent registered public accounting firm, including non-audit services, if any;

• reviews the scope and results of the annual audit;

• reviews the adequacy of the system of internal accounting controls and internal control over financial reporting;

• reviews and discusses the financial statements and accounting policies with management and our independent registered public accounting firm;

• reviews the performance and fees of our independent registered public accounting firm;

• reviews the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm;

• reviews the audit committee charter; and

• reviews related party transactions, if any.

The audit committee also oversees Radio One’s risk policies and processes relating to the financial statements and financial reporting processes, as well as key credit liquidity risks, market risks and compliance, and the guidelines, policies and processes for monitoring and mitigating those risks.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

This report is not soliciting material, is not deemed filed with the SEC and is not incorporated by reference in any of Radio One’s filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, whether made before or after the date of this proxy statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

The audit committee’s responsibilities are described in its written charter adopted by the board. The audit committee charter is posted on Radio One’s website located at www.radio-one.com/about/audit_committee.asp. The audit committee fulfills its responsibilities through periodic meetings with our independent registered public accounting firm and management. The audit committee reviews the financial information that will be provided to stockholders and others, the systems of internal controls that management and the board have established, and the audit process. In fulfilling these responsibilities, the committee, among other things, oversees the independent registered public accounting firm and confirms their independence, reviews the adequacy of the system of internal accounting controls and internal control over financial reporting, reviews financial statements, earnings releases and accounting matters, and reviews related party transactions. Management is responsible for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls. The independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The audit committee meetings regularly included separate sessions with the independent registered public accounting firm, in each case without the presence of Radio One’s management. As part of its oversight of Radio One’s financial statements, the audit committee reviewed and discussed with both management and the independent registered public accounting firm the audited financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, and quarterly operating results prior to their issuance. During 2012, management advised the audit committee that each set of financial statements reviewed had been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and reviewed significant accounting and disclosure issues with the audit committee. The audit committee also typically holds discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm regarding the effectiveness of Radio One’s internal control over financial reporting in accordance with the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; however, due to the Company’s status as a non-accelerated filer for the year ended December 31, 2012, such discussion with the independent reqistered public accounting firm was not required in connection with the filing of the Form 10-K for 2012 in order for management to sign off on the effectiveness of internal controls. The audit committee also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, “Communications with Audit Committees,” as amended, which includes, among other items, matters related to the conduct of the annual audit of Radio One’s financial statements. In addition, the audit committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the auditors’ independence from Radio One and its management, including the matters in the written disclosures required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, “Independence Discussions with Audit Committees,” and the audit committee satisfied itself as to the independent registered public accounting firms’ independence.

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the audit committee recommended to the board, and the board approved, the inclusion of the audited financial statements in Radio One’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2012, for filing with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted,

Audit Committee:

D. Geoffrey Armstrong, Chairman

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee consists of Terry L. Jones, Dennis A. Miller, Brian W. McNeill and D. Geoffrey Armstrong. The compensation committee held one formal meeting during the calendar year ended December 31, 2012 on December 19, 2012. The board has adopted a revised written compensation committee charter. The functions of the compensation committee include:

• reviewing and approving the salaries, bonuses and other compensation of our executive officers, including stock options or restricted stock grants;

• establishing and reviewing policies regarding executive officer compensation and perquisites; and

• performing such other duties as shall from time to time be delegated by the board.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During the last completed fiscal year, which ended on December 31, 2012, the compensation committee was comprised of Terry L. Jones, Dennis A. Miller, D. Geoffrey Armstrong, Dennis A. Miller and Brian W. McNeill. None of those members is or has been an officer or employee of the Company, and no executive officer of the Company served on the compensation committee or board of any entity that employed any member of the Company’s compensation committee or board of directors.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

Director Terry L. Jones was the Chairperson and directors Brian W. McNeill, D. Geoffrey Armstrong and Dennis A. Miller served on the compensation committee. The compensation committee has reviewed the performance of the executive officers of Radio One, Inc. and approved their 2012 compensation, including salary and cash and equity bonus amounts. The compensation committee also has reviewed and discussed the Compensation Discussion and Analysis for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, with the management of Radio One. Based on its review and discussion, the compensation committee recommends that this Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in Radio One’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Respectfully submitted,

Compensation Committee:

Terry L. Jones, Chairman

Brian W. McNeill

D. Geoffrey Armstrong

Dennis A. Miller

Nominating Committee

Our nominating committee consists of Alfred C. Liggins, III, Catherine L. Hughes, Terry L. Jones and Brian W. McNeill. The nominating committee is responsible for recommending the criteria for selection of board members and assisting the board in identifying candidates. The nominating committee acted once by written consent during the calendar year ended December 31, 2012. The nominating committee does not have a charter.

The nominating committee reviews the qualifications of all persons recommended by stockholders as nominees to the board of directors to determine whether the recommended nominees will make good candidates for consideration for membership on the board. The nominating committee has not established specific minimum qualifications for recommended nominees. However, as a matter of practice, the nominating committee evaluates recommended nominees for directors based on their integrity, judgment, independence, financial and business acumen, relevant experience, and their ability to act on behalf of all stockholders, as well as meet the needs of the board of directors, including the need to have a diversity of perspective. In the consideration of diversity of perspective, the nominating committee is most concerned with finding nominees that counter any perceived weaknesses in board composition. Such weaknesses may include weaknesses in perspective based upon race, sex, skill sets and industry insight particularly as the Company diversifies its business. Following such evaluation, the nominating committee will make recommendations for director membership and review the recommendations with the board of directors, which will decide whether to invite the candidate to be a nominee for election to the board.

For a stockholder to submit a candidate for the board to be considered by the nominating committee, a stockholder must notify Radio One’s Assistant Secretary. To make a recommendation for director nomination in advance of the 2013 annual meeting of Radio One, a stockholder must have notified Radio One’s Assistant Secretary in writing no later than January 15, 2013, the date that was expected to be approximately 120 days prior to the mailing of the proxy statement for the 2013 annual meeting of stockholders. Notices should have been sent to:

Assistant Secretary

Radio One, Inc.

1010 Wayne Avenue, 14th Floor

Silver Spring, Maryland 20910

All notices must include all information relating to the stockholder and the proposed nominee that would be required to be disclosed in a proxy statement or other filings required to be made in connection with solicitations of proxies for elections of directors under the proxy rules of the United States Securities Exchange Commission.

Code of Ethics

The code of ethics is available on our website, www.radio-one.com, or can be obtained without charge by written request to Assistant Secretary, Radio One, Inc., 14th Floor, 1010 Wayne Avenue, Silver Spring, Maryland 20910.

On the basis of reports and representations submitted by Radio One’s directors, executive officers, and greater than ten percent owners, we believe that all required Section 16(a) filings for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, were timely made.

ITEM 11.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The first part of the narrative below, entitled “Compensation Policies and Philosophy”, discusses in detail our compensation philosophy and practices. The second part of the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, entitled “2012 Compensation Actions”, discusses compensation decisions and actions for our named executives that occurred during calendar year 2012. The Company’s compensation committee is appointed by the board of directors and has responsibility for establishing, implementing and monitoring adherence to the Company’s compensation philosophy. The compensation committee oversees the compensation of the Company’s executive officers and determines the compensation of the Chairperson and the CEO. The compensation committee strives to ensure that the total compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers is fair, reasonable and competitive and provides an appropriate mix of different compensation elements that find a balance between current versus long-term compensation and cash versus equity incentive compensation.

We are a “controlled company” under the NASDAQ listing rule as more than 50% of our voting power is held by Catherine L. Hughes, our Chairperson of the Board and Secretary, and Alfred C. Liggins, III, our CEO and President. While we were therefore not subject to NASDAQ rules that would require us to have a compensation committee composed solely of independent directors, during the year ended December 31, 2012, all of the members of the compensation committee were independent directors. Throughout this discussion, we refer to the individuals who served during calendar year 2012 as the Company’s Chairperson, CEO, Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”) and Chief Administrative Officer (“CAO”), as the Company’s “named executive officers.”

Compensation Policies and Philosophy

The overall objective of our compensation plan is to attract, motivate, retain and reward the top-quality management that we need in order to operate successfully and meet our strategic objectives, including our diversification into a broader multi-media company. To achieve this, we aim to provide a compensation package that is competitive in the markets and industries in which we compete for talent that provides rewards for achieving financial, operational and strategic performance goals and aligns executives’ financial interests with those of our shareholders.

We operate in the intensely competitive media industry, which is characterized by rapidly changing technology, evolving industry standards, frequent introduction of new media services, price and cost competition, limited advertising dollars, and extensive regulation. We face many aggressive and well-financed competitors. In this environment, our success depends on attracting and maintaining a leadership team with the integrity, skills, and dedication needed to manage a dynamic organization and the vision to anticipate and respond to future market developments. We use our executive compensation program to help us achieve this objective. Part of the compensation package, principally the annual salary, benefits and perquisites, is designed to enable us to assemble and retain a group of executives who have the collective and individual experience and abilities necessary to run our business to meet these challenges. Other parts, principally the annual bonus opportunity and the stock-based awards, are intended to focus these executives on achieving financial results that enhance the value of our stockholders’ investment. At the same time, the compensation structure is flexible, so that we can meet the changing needs of our business over time and reward executive officers and managers based on the financial performance of operations under their control.

Our compensation packages also take into account the economic and general business conditions at the time in which compensation decisions are made. While we may adjust and refine our compensation packages as operating conditions change, we believe it is important to maintain consistency in our compensation philosophy and approach. We recognize that value-creating performance by an executive or group of executives does not always translate immediately into appreciation of our stock price, particularly in periods of industry transformation and/or general economic volatility. Management and the compensation committee are aware of the impact that industry transformation and the general economic volatility has had on the Company’s stock price, but the compensation committee intends to continue to reward management performance based on its belief that over time strong operating performance, including performance in diversifying the Company’s multi-media platform will be reflected through stock price appreciation. In the context of industry decline, the compensation committee also believes that performance as measured against the industry in general and relative to the markets in which we operate should be given consideration. That said, we believe that it is appropriate for certain components of compensation to decline and/or for management to share in corporate-wide financial sacrifice in challenging operating environments and during periods of economic stress and reduced earnings.

Process

The compensation committee meets periodically throughout the year as needed. In addition, members of the compensation committee discuss compensation matters with our CEO and CFO and among themselves informally outside of meetings. The CEO may make recommendations to the compensation committee concerning the amount and form of compensation to all named executive officers. In establishing the compensation levels for Radio One’s Chairperson and CEO in connection with their 2008 employment agreements (the Chairperson’s and CEO’s 2008 employment agreements are hereinafter together referred to as the “2008 Employment Agreements” and each a “2008 Employment Agreement”), the compensation committee itself engaged the services of Pearl Meyers & Partners, LLC (“Pearl Meyers”), a nationally recognized compensation consultant, and outside counsel to ensure compliance with its fiduciary duties. In connection with the 2008 Employment Agreements, the compensation committee used its compensation consultant to provide advice in the development and evaluation of compensation and the compensation committee’s determinations of the Chairperson’s and CEO’s compensation awards. The outside consultant, however, is not consulted by the compensation committee on all executive compensation issues or all aspects of any particular issue, but is used as the compensation committee deems appropriate.

The compensation committee uses judgment and discretion rather than relying solely on formulaic results. The compensation committee considers a number of qualitative and quantitative factors, including the competitive market for executives, the level and types of compensation paid to executive officers in similar positions by comparable companies, performance in the context of the economic environment relative to other companies, vision and ability to create further growth, the ability to lead others and an evaluation of Radio One’s financial and operational performance. We review the compensation paid to executives at other radio broadcasting companies as a reference point for determining the competitiveness of our executive compensation and to determine a competitive range of compensation observed in the marketplace. Generally speaking, our peer group of radio broadcasting companies includes Citadel Broadcasting Corporation, Emmis Communications Corp., Entercom Communications Corp. and Saga Communications, Inc. The major compensation elements that may be examined in that analysis could include: base salary; actual total cash compensation (base salary plus annual bonus); and total direct compensation (base salary plus annual bonus plus the expected value of long-term incentives). In addition, given the diversity of our business, the compensation committee may review the compensation practices at companies with which it competes for talent, including television, cable, film, online, software and other publicly held businesses with a scope and complexity similar to ours. However, the compensation committee does not attempt to benchmark or set each compensation element for its named executive officers within a particular range or percentile related to levels provided by industry peers. Rather, the compensation committee uses market comparisons as one factor in making compensation decisions and to understand current compensation trends and practices in the marketplace. Other factors considered when making individual executive compensation decisions include individual contribution and performance, reporting structure, internal pay relationships, complexity and importance of roles and responsibilities, leadership and growth potential.

Finally, pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, on June 5, 2012, the Company conducted “say-on-pay” advisory voting with respect to its fiscal year 2011 executive compensation, including potential bonus compensation although none was paid to the named executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011. The results of the voting were 29,135,476 votes approving fiscal year 2011 executive compensation, 178,237 votes against, 2,481 abstentions, and 1,698,074 non-votes. It was further determined by the voting that advisory votes on executive compensation would be held every three years. The results of the voting were 28,808,782 votes for a vote every three years, 13,990 votes for a vote for every two years, 472,786 votes for a vote for every one year, with 20,363 abstentions, and 1,698,861 non-votes. Thus, as a part of the compensation review process, the Company will conduct an advisory vote with respect to executive compensation every three years (with the next vote occurring in 2015) and the compensation committee will consider the results of such voting as it reviews and sets executive compensation.

Principal Components of Executive Compensation

We seek to achieve our compensation philosophy through three key compensation elements:

·	base salary;

·	a performance-based annual bonus (that constitutes the short-term incentive element of our program), which may be paid in cash, restricted stock shares or a combination of these; and

·	grants of long-term, equity-based compensation (that constitute the long-term incentive element of our program), such as stock options and/or restricted stock shares, which may be subject to time-based and/or performance-based vesting requirements.

The compensation committee believes that this three-part approach is consistent with programs adopted by similarly situated companies, allows us to stay competitive in our industry and best serves the interests of our stockholders by linking significant components of executive compensation to company performance. The approach enables us to meet the requirements of the competitive environment in which we operate, while ensuring that named executive officers are compensated in a manner that advances both the short and long-term interests of our stockholders. Under this approach, compensation for our named executive officers involves a high proportion of pay that is “at risk”, namely, the annual bonus and the value of stock options and restricted stock units. Stock options and/or restricted stock units relate a significant portion of each named executive officer’s long-term remuneration directly to the stock price appreciation realized by our stockholders.

Base salary. Our objective with respect to base salary is to pay our executives compensation that is competitive in the marketplace and reflects the level of responsibility and performance of the executive, the executive’s experience and tenure, the scope and complexity of the position, the compensation of the executive compared to the compensation of our other key salaried employees, the compensation paid for comparable positions by other media companies, and the performance of our Company.

Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation. Our executives are eligible to receive an annual bonus intended to provide financial incentives for performance and to align the goals and performance of the executive to our overall objectives. The compensation committee has significant flexibility in awarding bonuses. The compensation committee may consider, among other things, year-to-year revenue growth compared to that of the radio industry in general or the markets in which we operate, operating performance across our multi-media platform, including Interactive One and TV One, versus our business plan, acquisitions and divestitures, employee retention, sales and operating initiatives, and stock price performance compared to the industry peer group. Bonus recommendations for named executive officers other than the CEO are proposed by the CEO, reviewed, revised when appropriate, and approved by the compensation committee. The compensation committee establishes the bonus level for the CEO and Chairperson.

Long-term Incentives. We believe that equity ownership by Company executives provides incentive to build stockholder value, aligns the interests of the executives with the interests of stockholders and serves as motivation for long-term performance. The Company’s equity incentive compensation program is designed to recognize scope of responsibilities, reward demonstrated performance and leadership, align the interests of the named executive with those of our shareholders and to retain key employees. We believe that providing grants of stock options and/or restricted stock shares effectively focuses the named executives on delivering long-term value to our shareholders because options only have value to the extent the price of our stock on the date of exercise exceeds the stock price on the grant date, and shares of restricted stock reward and retain the named executive officer by offering them the opportunity to receive shares of stock on the date the restrictions lapse so long as they continue to be employed by the Company. Until May 5, 2009, stock awards were made pursuant to the Radio One Amended and Restated 1999 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan, which was approved by our stockholders (as amended, the “1999 Stock Plan”). The 1999 Stock Plan expired by its terms on May 5, 2009. At our 2009 annual stockholders meeting held December 16, 2009, our stockholders adopted the Radio One 2009 Stock Option and Restricted Stock Grant Plan (the “2009 Stock Plan”).

Under the 2009 Stock Plan, the compensation committee can award stock options or grant restricted stock to any executive officer or other eligible participants under the plan, on its own initiative or at the recommendation of management. The compensation committee determines the number of incentive awards granted to our named executive officers on an individual, discretionary basis. The level of long-term incentive compensation generally is determined with consideration given to total compensation provided to named executive officers, publicly available market data on total compensation packages, the value of long-term incentive grants at peer companies, total stockholder return, stockholder dilution and input from the CEO. In accordance with our Stock Plan Administration Procedures, as approved by the compensation committee, the grant date and pricing date for awards approved by the compensation committee to named executive officers (other than a company-wide grant) is the next monthly grant date immediately following the meeting of the compensation committee at which the awards were approved. Under our Stock Plan Administration Procedures, monthly grant dates are generally defined as the fifth day of each month, or the next NASDAQ trading day in the event the fifth day is not a business day. For example, if the compensation committee approved an award at any time between January 5, 2013 and February 4, 2013, the applicable monthly grant date would have been February 5, 2013, and, thus, the grant date and pricing date would have been February 5, 2013. If the compensation committee approved an award at any time between February 5, 2013 and March 4, 2013, the applicable monthly grant date would have been March 5, 2013, and, thus, the grant date and pricing date would have been March 5, 2013. However, it is also our practice in granting options or stock awards to wait for the release of any material non-public information and settlement of that information in the marketplace. Thus, for example, if the compensation committee approved an award at any time between January 5, 2013, and February 4, 2013, and, it was determined that material non-public information existed, the grant date for the awards would have been delayed until March 5, 2013, assuming the information in question was communicated to the marketplace prior to such date.

When authorized by the compensation committee to do so, the CEO or CFO may make stock option awards or restricted stock grants to new hires, contractors or consultants and to existing employees on promotion or other change in employee status, in accordance with the compensation committee’s delegation of authority. Historically, we have utilized stock options as our primary means of providing long-term incentive compensation. Statement of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 718, “Compensation – Stock Compensation,” sets forth accounting requirements for share-based compensation to employees using a fair-value based method.

2012 Compensation Actions

Named Executive Officer Base Compensation and Long-term Incentive Compensation

The base compensation of each of the named executives remained unchanged from 2011 in the year ended December 31, 2012. Further, no long term incentive compensation was granted with respect to any of the named executive officers in 2012.

2012 Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation

This cash-based element of compensation provides executives an incentive and a reward for achieving meaningful near-term performance objectives. The compensation committee believes that it is important for the Company to meet its performance goals in order to pay cash bonuses to the named executive officers as a group, but that it is also important to retain flexibility to allocate the bonus pool among individuals. What follows below is a discussion of the considerations for the 2012 non-equity incentive plan compensation (the “2012 Executive Bonuses”).

2012 Individual Performance Criteria

Our CEO provides input into the compensation discussion and makes recommendations to the compensation committee for annual compensation changes and bonuses for the named executive officers and the appropriateness of additional long-term incentive compensation. The CEO considers each executive officer’s performance during the year, including accomplishments, areas of strength, and areas for development. The CEO bases his evaluation on his knowledge of each executive officer’s performance. The CEO also reviews comparable compensation data and makes a recommendation to the committee on base salary, performance-based annual bonus, and equity awards for each executive officer. The Company’s Vice President of Human Resources may be asked to review the market compensation data to assist with compensation recommendations. The compensation committee took action two times with respect to 2012 Executive Bonuses. First, on December 19, 2012, the compensation committee awarded cash bonuses to the CFO and CAO while deferring bonus determinations for the Founder and CEO. On March 5, 2013, the compensation committee awarded cash bonuses to the CEO and the Chairperson for the year ended December 31, 2012. In making 2012 Executive Bonus decisions with respect to the bonus awards for the CFO and CAO, the compensation committee exercised its discretion. In exercising their discretion with respect to the CFO and CAO awards, the compensation committee considered a number of factors concerning the performance of the Company as more fully described in the Section below titled “2012 Executive Bonus Considerations”. In making 2012 annual bonus decisions with respect to the Chairperson and CEO, the compensation committee considered the applicable performance criteria as set forth in the Chairperson’s and CEO’s 2008 Employment Agreements. However, given that the 2008 Employment Agreements had an initial three year term expiring April 15, 2011, and had not been updated, the compensation committee also exercised discretion to reflect a number of factors not contemplated by the 2008 Employment Agreements. The 2008 Employment Agreement Performance Criteria and Additional Considerations for each of the Chairperson and CEO are set forth below.

Performance Criteria for Chairperson and CEO

Performance Criteria for the Chairperson. The Chairperson’s 2008 Employment Agreement provided for an annual cash bonus payable at the discretion of the board up to a maximum of $250,000. Under the terms of her 2008 Employment Agreement, in exercising its discretion whether or not to pay the Chairperson such bonus, the compensation committee generally considered the Company’s overall performance for a given fiscal year and the Chairperson’s contributions to the success of the Company. In addition to the Chairperson’s strategic leadership, guidance, and promotion of the Company, throughout 2012 the Chairperson was actively involved in the sales activities of One Solution, the Company’s national sales platform. The compensation committee determined that the Chairperson was an integral part of the One Solution sales team and her efforts resulted in significant advertising commitments and revenue generation. As such, the compensation committee concluded that the Chairperson’s annual discretionary cash bonus amount should be increased to a maximum of $500,000 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Performance Criteria for the CEO. The compensation committee establishes the bonus level for the CEO. Under the terms of his 2008 Employment Agreement, the CEO’s bonus award could not in the aggregate exceed his annual base salary or $980,000. Under the 2008 Employment Agreement, the CEO’s bonus award had two components. The first component, equaling 50% of the award (or approximately $500,000), was based on the achievement of pre-established individual and Company performance goals, as determined by the compensation committee in consultation with the CEO (the “Performance Goals Portion”). For calendar year 2012, the elements and allocations of the Performance Goals Portion were unchanged from prior years as follows: (i) Company consolidated performance as measured by performance against each of budgeted revenue, expenses and cash flow - allocation equaled 15% (5% per measure) or maximum payout of $75,000; (ii) radio market performance against the top half of publicly reporting radio companies - allocation equaled 15% or maximum payout of $75,000; (iii) balance sheet management measured by compliance with bank covenants, resource allocation, asset dispositions, stock buy backs and debt retirement - allocation equaled 20% or maximum payout of $100,000; (iv) TV One performance measured by performance against budgeted revenue and achievement of budgeted EBITDA allocation equaled 25% (12.25% per measure) or maximum payout of $125,000; and (v) interactive group performance measured by performance against budgeted revenue, expenses and cash flow - allocation equaled 25% (8.33% per measure) or maximum payout of $125,000. The second component, equaling the balance of the award, was determinable at the discretion of the compensation committee. Under the 2008 Employment Agreement, in determining the amount of the discretionary portion of the CEO’s bonus, the compensation committee was permitted to consider factors such as “over-performance” versus all or any one of the pre-established individual and Company performance goals under the Performance Goals Portion of the bonus. Since the 2008 Employment Agreement, the CEO has taken on additional responsibilities not contemplated by the 2008 Employment Agreement. Specifically, since the March 2012 departure of the Company’s President – Radio Division of the Company, the CEO has assumed the responsibilities associated with that position. Further, since the November 2012 departure of TV One’s chief executive officer, the CEO has assumed the responsibilities of overseeing the day to day operations of TV One as well. Given the CEO’s assumption of such significant additional duties, the compensation committee felt it appropriate to increase the maximum amount payable under the discretionary portion of the CEO’s bonus to $1,000,000.

2012 Executive Bonus Considerations

In making final 2012 performance-based annual bonus decisions, the compensation committee considered named executive officer performance against the applicable performance criteria. In exercising its discretion with respect of the CFO and CAO (based upon preliminary data available at the time) and in considering the above-described performance criteria for the Chairperson and CEO, the compensation committee made the following observations:

(i) The compensation committee considered the radio division’s 2012 operating performance versus our 2012 business plan. In this regard, the compensation committee noted that the radio division had met its EBITDA plan for the calendar year-ended December 31, 2012.

(ii) The compensation committee considered that for fourth quarter 2012 core radio revenues were up by 11.0% and the Company outperformed the markets in which it operates by 820 basis points leading to revenues being up 7.0% for calendar year 2012 versus a 0.9% increase in revenues in the markets in which the Company operates.

(iii) The compensation committee considered that on December 19, 2012, the Company closed upon an amendment to its senior credit facility providing the Company with further operational flexibility given uncertainty in the macroeconomic environment. Further, the compensation committee considered the Company’s compliance with the financial covenants contained in its credit facility. In noting the Company’s covenant compliance, the compensation committee also noted that the Company elected to take less than the maximum possible dividends from TV One throughout the year ended December 31, 2012, and to defer those dividend receipts to future periods as a management tool to ensure covenant headroom in future periods.

(iv) With respect to the performance of TV One, the compensation committee noted that TV One’s revenues were up 8% and the division’s EBITDA increased to approximately $40 million.

(v) With respect to the performance of Interactive One, the compensation committee noted that our internet business generated approximately $19.9 million in net revenue for the year ended December 31, 2012, compared to approximately $17.5 million during the same period in 2010, an increase of 13.7%. However, the compensation committee also noted that the internet business underperformed with respect to budgeted revenue and EBITDA goals.

With respect to the discretionary portion of the CEO’s 2012 bonus, the compensation committee considered a number of other factors, including but not limited to: (i) the Company’s significant over-performance versus the markets in its core radio division; (ii) the sale of the assets of one of its Columbus, Ohio radio stations, WJKR-FM (The Jack, 98.9 FM); (iii) the Company’s purchase of additional shares of Reach Media, Inc. (“Reach Media”) in December 2012 increasing the Company’s ownership in Reach Media from approximately 53% to 80%; (iv) the Company’s restructuring of its syndication programming network to more effectively leverage its corporate sales team; (v) the Company’s successful LMAs in the Detroit and Charlotte markets, each leading to enhanced revenue generation in those markets; (vi) the Company’s continued successes in cost containment efforts, including cost reductions associated with the CEO’s assumption of additional duties; and (vii) the Company’s successes in making certain operational personnel adjustments and new hires. With these factors in mind, the compensation committee awarded 2012 Executive Bonuses as follows: (i) each of the CFO and CAO were awarded a cash bonus in the amount of $250,000; (ii) the Chairperson was awarded a cash bonus of $500,000; and (iii) the CEO was awarded a cash bonus of $1,500,000.

Post-Termination and Change in Control Benefits

Under the terms of her employment agreement, upon termination without cause or for good reason within two years following a change of control, Ms. Hughes will receive an amount equal to three times the sum of (1) her annual base salary and (2) the average of her last three annual incentive bonus payments, in a cash lump sum within five days of such termination, a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination, and continued welfare benefits for three years, subject to all applicable federal, state and local deductions. Similarly, under the terms of his employment agreement, upon termination without cause or for good reason within two years following a change of control, Mr. Liggins will receive an amount equal to three times the sum of (1) his annual base salary and (2) the average of his last three annual incentive bonus payments, in a cash lump sum within five days of such termination, a pro-rated annual bonus for the year of termination, and continued welfare benefits for three years, subject to all applicable federal, state and local deductions.

Please see the table, titled “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control” on page 18 of this Form 10-K/A for quantitative information about the payments that might occur upon various termination events.

Under Ms. Hughes and Mr. Liggins employment agreements the terms “cause” and “good reason” are defined generally as follows:

“Cause” means (i) the commission by the executive of a felony, fraud, embezzlement or an act of serious, criminal moral turpitude which, in case of any of the foregoing, in the good faith judgment of the Board, is likely to cause material harm to the business of the Company and the Company affiliates, taken as a whole, provided , that in the absence of a conviction or plea of nolo contendere, the Company will have the burden of proving the commission of such act by clear and convincing evidence, (ii) the commission of an act by the executive constituting material financial dishonesty against the Company or any Company affiliate, provided, that in the absence of a conviction or plea of nolo contendere, the Company will have the burden of proving the commission of such act by a preponderance of the evidence, (iii) the repeated refusal by the executive to use his reasonable and diligent efforts to follow the lawful and reasonable directives of the Board, or (iv) the executive’s willful gross neglect in carrying out his material duties and responsibilities under the agreement, provided, that unless the Board reasonably determines that a breach described in clause (iii) or (iv) is not curable, the executive will, be given written notice of such breach and will be given an opportunity to cure such breach to the reasonable satisfaction of the Board within thirty (30) days of receipt of such written notice.

“Good Reason” shall be deemed to exist if, without the express written consent of the executive, (a) the executive’s rate of annual base salary is reduced, (b) the executive suffers a substantial reduction in his title, duties or responsibilities, (c) the Company fails to pay the executive’s annual base salary when due or to pay any other material amount due to the executive hereunder within five (5) days of written notice from the executive, (d) the Company materially breaches the agreement and fails to correct such breach within thirty (30) days after receiving the executive’s demand that it remedy the breach, or (e) the Company fails to obtain a satisfactory written agreement from any successor to assume and agree to perform the agreement, which successor the executive reasonably concludes is capable of performing the Company’s financial obligations under this Agreement.

The foregoing summaries of the definitions of “cause” and “good reason” are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual terms of the employment agreements filed with that certain Form 8-K filed April 18, 2008.

Under the terms of his employment agreement, in the event that Mr. Thompson is terminated other than for cause, provided Mr. Thompson executes a general liability release, the Company will pay Mr. Thompson severance in an amount equal to three month’s base compensation, subject to all applicable federal, state and local deductions.

Other Benefits and Perquisites

As part of our competitive compensation package to attract and retain talented employees, we offer retirement, health and other benefits to our employees. Our named executive officers participate in the same benefit plans as our other salaried employees. The only benefit programs offered to our named executive officers either exclusively or with terms different from those offered to other eligible employees are the following:

Deferred Compensation. We have a deferred compensation plan that allows Catherine L. Hughes, our Chairperson, to defer compensation on a voluntary, non-tax qualified basis. Under the plan in effect during each of 2011 and 2012, Ms. Hughes deferred $24,000 of her base salary (and no amounts of bonus) until death, disability, retirement or termination. The amount owed to her as deferred compensation is an unfunded and unsecured general obligation of our Company. Deferred amounts accrue interest based upon the return earned on an investment account with a designated brokerage firm established by Radio One. All deferred amounts are payable in a lump sum 30 days after the date of the event causing the distribution to be paid. No named executive officer earns above-market or preferential earnings on nonqualified deferred compensation.

Other Perquisites. We provide few perquisites to our named executive officers. Currently, we provide or reimburse executives for a company automobile, driver and various administrative services including a financial manager and a personal assistant.

We have set forth the incremental cost of providing these benefits and perquisites to our named executives in the 2012 Summary Compensation Table in the “All Other Compensation” column.

Tax Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, imposes limitations upon the federal income tax deductibility of compensation paid to certain named executive officers. On May 28, 2008, the Internal Revenue Service issued Notice 2008-4, which defines the group of named executive officers who are considered covered employees for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Notice specifically excludes the chief financial officer from coverage under Section 162(m) and provides that the only individuals who will be considered covered employees are the chief executive officer and the three highest compensated officers (other than the chief executive officer or chief financial officer). Previously, the chief executive officer and the four other highest compensated officers were subject to Section 162(m), and the chief financial officer was not automatically excluded. Under the 162(m) limitations, we may deduct up to $1,000,000 of compensation for such executive officer in any one year or may deduct all compensation, even if over $1,000,000, if we meet certain specified conditions (such as certain performance-based compensation that has been approved by stockholders). As the net cost of compensation, including its deductibility, is weighed by the compensation committee against many factors in determining executive compensation, the compensation committee may determine that it is appropriate and in Radio One’s best interest to authorize compensation that is not deductible, whether by reason of Section 162(m) or otherwise.

Directors’ Fees

Our non-employee directors each typically receive an annual retainer of $20,000 which is paid in equal installments on a quarterly basis. In addition, they receive $1,000 for each board meeting attended, and are reimbursed for all out-of-pocket expenses related to meetings attended. Non-employee directors serving as chairperson of a committee of the board of directors receive an extra $10,000 per annum. However, in 2012, the non-employee directors were paid an an additional amount for services provided during 2011. During 2011, no non-employee director was paid any cash retainers due to a weak economy and the corresponding effects on the Company's operations. Pursuant to the Company’s Policy for Granting Stock Options and Restricted Stock Awards, as adopted by the compensation committee, on an annual basis on the grant date immediately after each annual stockholders’ meeting, each non-employee director also receives an award of stock options in an amount as determined by the compensation committee (the “Non-Employee Director Annual Award”). The grant date for the Non-Employee Director Annual Award is the fifth day of the month following the date of the annual stockholder meeting. If the compensation committee does not make a determination as to the size of the Non-Employee Director Annual Award, each non-employee director automatically receives an award of options to purchase that number of shares that would have a fair market value of $25,000 on the grant date (the “Automatic Non-Employee Director Award”). Under this policy, for 2012, each of our non-officer directors received an Automatic Non-Employee Director Award of options to purchase 30,120 shares of Class D common stock on September 5, 2012. However, the Non-Employee Director Annual Award date was delayed until September 5, 2012, in keeping with our practice in granting options or stock awards to wait for the release of any material non-public information and settlement of that information in the marketplace. The number of shares was determined by dividing $0.83, the closing share price of our Class D common stock on September 5, 2012, into $25,000. Our officers who serve as directors do not receive compensation for their services as directors other than the compensation they receive as officers of Radio One.

(2)	On June 29, 2010, each non-employee director was awarded options to purchase 22,935 shares of Class D common stock. The option award grant date was January 5, 2011.

On June 6, 2011 each non-employee director was awarded options to purchase 13,369 shares of Class D common stock. The number of shares was determined by dividing $1.87, the closing share price of our Class D common stock on June 6, 2011, into $25,000. On September 5, 2012 each non-employee director was awarded options to purchase 30,120 shares of Class D common stock.

Employment Agreements

Chairperson. Catherine L. Hughes, our founder, serves as our Chairperson of the board of directors and Secretary. The initial term of Ms. Hughes' employment agreement dated April 12, 2008 ran through April 15, 2011. However, the agreement extends automatically for additional one (1) year periods, unless either party provides written notice of its/her intention not to renew at least sixty (60) days before the expiration of the initial or any renewal term, as applicable. The agreement provides for an annual base salary of $750,000 that may be increased at the discretion of the board. However, the Chairperson’s base salary has remained at $750,000 since 2008. The employment agreement also provides for an annual cash bonus at the discretion of the board up to a maximum of $250,000. However, as noted above, for the year ended December 31, 2012, the compensation committee increased the maximum amount of her annual cash bonus to $500,000.

Mr. Liggins’ 2008 Employment Agreement also provided for a bonus award up to an amount equal to his base salary and comprised of two components. The first component, equaling 50% of the award, is based on the achievement of pre-established individual and Company performance goals, as determined by the compensation committee in consultation with Mr. Liggins. The second component, equaling the balance of the award, is determined at the discretion of the compensation committee. However, as noted above, for the year ended December 31, 2012, the compensation committee increased the maximum amount of the discretionary portion of the CEO’s bonus award to $1,000,000 for an aggregate bonus amount of $1,500,000.

In both events, the Company’s obligation to pay any portion of the TV One Award is only triggered after the Company’s recovery of the full amount of its cumulative capital contributions to TV One. Mr. Liggins will only receive the TV One Award upon actual cash distributions or distributions of marketable securities. Mr. Liggins’ rights to the TV One Award (i) cease if he is terminated for cause or he resigns without good reason and (ii) expire at the end of the term (including any renewal term) of his employment agreement. Mr. Liggins also receives standard retirement, welfare and fringe benefits, as well as vehicle and wireless communication allowances and a personal assistant and financial manager services.

The agreement also provided for an annual discretionary cash bonus in an amount not to exceed $200,000. In exercising its discretion with respect to 2012 bonuses, the compensation committee increased this amount to $250,000 at the recommendation of the CEO. Mr. Thompson is also entitled to receive a pro-rata portion of his bonus upon termination due to death or disability. A discussion of the element and allocations of the CFO's performance based bonus for fiscal year 2012 is included above in the Section titled “2012 Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation”.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

We review all transactions and relationships in which Radio One and our directors and executive officers or their immediate family members are participants to determine whether such persons have a direct or indirect material interest. In addition, our code of ethics requires our directors, executive officers and principal financial officers to report to the board or the audit committee any situation that could be perceived as a conflict of interest. Once a related person transaction has been identified, the board of directors may appoint a special committee of the board of directors to review and, if appropriate, approve such transaction. The special committee will consider the material facts, such as the nature of the related person’s interest in the transaction, the terms of the transaction, the importance of the transaction to the related person and to us, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances, and other matters it deems appropriate. As required under the SEC rules, we disclose in the proxy statement related party transactions that are directly or indirectly material to us or a related person.

Music One, Inc.

The Company’s CEO and Chairperson own a music company called Music One, Inc. (“Music One”). The Company sometimes engages in promoting the recorded music product of Music One. Based on the cross-promotional value received by the Company, we believe that the provision of such promotion is fair. During the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, Radio One paid $38,000, $6,000 and $6,000, respectively, to or on behalf of Music One, primarily for market talent event appearances, travel reimbursement and sponsorships. For the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company provided advertising to Music One in the amount of $1,000, $1,000 and $0, respectively. There were no cash, trade or no-charge orders placed by Music One in 2010.

The office space and administrative support transactions between Radio One and Music One are conducted at cost and all expenses associated with the transactions are passed through at actual costs. Costs associated with office space on behalf of Music One are calculated based on square footage used by Music One, multiplied by Radio One’s actual per square foot lease costs for the appropriate time period. Administrative services are calculated based on the approximate hours provided by each Radio One employee to Music One, multiplied by such employee’s applicable hourly rate and related benefits allocation. Advertising spots are priced at an average unit rate. Based on the cross-promotional nature of the activities provided by Music One and received by the Company, we believe that these methodologies of charging average unit rates or passing through the actual costs incurred are fair and reflect terms no more favorable than terms generally available to a third-party.
