ended December 31, 2008.

• Station operating income decreased 25% to $39.3 million
• EBITDA decreased 25% to $35.3 million
• Same station net revenues decreased 14% and same station operating expenses decreased 7%
• Same station operating income decreased 25%
• For the quarter, the Company recorded a non-cash after-tax (before adjustment for the impact of a valuation allowance) intangible
impairment charge of $395.2 million
• Adjusted net income per share decreased 20% from $0.41 to $0.33
• Free cash flow decreased 24% to $23.0 million

2008 Annual Highlights

• Net revenues for the year decreased 6% to $438.8 million and station operating expenses decreased 3% to $273.6 million
• Station operating income decreased 12% to $165.2 million
• EBITDA decreased 11% to $145.6 million
• Same station net revenues decreased 7% and same station operating expenses decreased 3%
• Same station operating income decreased 12%
• For the year, the Company recorded non-cash after-tax (before adjustment for the impact of a valuation allowance) intangible
impairment charges of $507.3 million
• Adjusted net income per share increased 2% from $1.25 to $1.27
• Free cash flow increased 3% to $94.2 million

David J. Field, President and Chief Executive Officer stated: “In the face of difficult general economic conditions that are adversely impacting
advertising revenues, Entercom has taken significant measures to improve our short-term performance and enhance our long-term prospects.
We have materially reduced expenses, while at the same time increased our investment in various digital and new revenue initiatives. We also
are pleased to note that in 2008, Entercom posted a three percent increase in free cash flow and reduced long-term debt by $140 million. Finally,
as we look to the future, we note that the fundamentals of the radio business remain strong. At a time of unprecedented change in media usage
that is severely impairing a number of other media, radio posted an all-time record number of listeners in 2008 and remains the most cost-
effective major advertising medium in the nation.”

Additional Fourth Quarter Information

During the quarter, the Company reduced its outstanding debt by $41.5 million, including the repurchase of $8.5 million of its Senior
Subordinated Notes at a discount. Entercom’s leverage ratio, as defined in its credit agreement, was 5.2x at the end of the period.

During the quarter, the Company recorded a non-cash after-tax (before adjustment for the impact of a valuation allowance) intangible
impairment charge of $395.2 million which was applied to nearly all of the Company’s markets. This impairment was taken as result of the
Company’s periodic review of its intangible assets and goodwill and reflects an adjustment to the valuation of the Company’s intangible
assets due to the continued difficult advertising environment and the depressed stock prices and valuations of public media companies.

During the quarter, the Company repurchased 0.8 million shares of common stock for $0.7 million.

The weighted average diluted shares for the quarter was 36.1 million. As of December 31, 2008, the Company had $4.3 million in cash and cash
equivalents, $750.2 million of Senior Debt and $83.5 million of Senior Subordinated Notes.

Additional 2008 Information

During the year, the Company reduced its outstanding debt by $140.0 million, including the repurchase of $66.5 million of its Senior
Subordinated Notes at a discount. The Company also completed transactions which hedged the interest rate on approximately 70% of the
Company’s floating rate debt.

During the year, the Company recorded non-cash after-tax (before adjustment for the impact of a valuation allowance) intangible impairment
charges of $507.3 million.

Free cash flow for the year benefitted from a significant reduction in financing expense (interest expense plus Time Brokerage Agreement
(“TBA”) expense). Financing expense for 2008 reflected the full year impact of the Company’s new credit facility, a decrease in interest rates in
2008, as well as the Senior Subordinated Notes repurchases which were funded with lower cost bank debt. TBA expense also declined as the
Company completed the acquisition of 14 radio stations from CBS Radio Inc. in the fourth quarter of 2007.

During the year, the Company repurchased 2.1 million shares of common stock for $13.9 million.

Certain Definitions

All references to per share data, unless stated otherwise, are presented as per diluted share. All references to station operating expenses and
corporate general and administrative expenses are exclusive of non-cash compensation expense, unless stated otherwise. All references to
shares outstanding, unless stated otherwise, are presented to exclude unvested restricted stock units.

Station operating income consists of operating income (loss) before depreciation and amortization, time brokerage agreement fees (income),
corporate general and administrative expenses, non-cash compensation expense (which is otherwise included in station operating expenses),
impairment loss and gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets.

EBITDA consists of income (loss) from continuing operations, adjusted to exclude: income taxes (benefit), total other expense, depreciation
and amortization, time brokerage agreement fees (income), non-cash compensation expense (which is otherwise included in station operating
expenses and corporate G&A expenses), impairment loss and gain or loss on sale or disposition of assets.

Free cash flow consists of operating income (loss): (i) plus depreciation and amortization, non-cash compensation expense (which is otherwise
included in station operating expenses and corporate general and administrative expenses), impairment loss and income from discontinued
operations before income taxes (benefit), depreciation and amortization expense and impairment loss; and (ii) less net interest expense
(excluding amortization of deferred financing costs), gains (loss) on sale of assets, taxes paid and capital expenditures.

Adjusted Net Income consists of net income (loss) adjusted to exclude: (i) income (loss) from discontinued operations before income taxes
(benefit); (ii) reported taxes; (iii) gain/loss on sale of assets, derivative instruments and investments; (iv) non-cash compensation expense;
(v) other income; (vi) impairment loss; and (vii) gain/loss on early extinguishment of debt. For purposes of comparison, income taxes are
reflected at the expected statutory federal and state tax rate of 42% without discrete items of tax.

Adjusted net income per share: includes any dilutive equivalent shares when not anti-dilutive.

Same station operating data is computed by comparing the performance of stations operated by the Company throughout the relevant period
to the comparable performance in the prior year’s corresponding period.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

It is important to note that station operating income, same station net revenues, same station operating expenses, same station operating
income, EBITDA, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per share and free cash flow are not measures of performance or liquidity
calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Management believes that these measures are useful as a
way to evaluate the Company and the means for management to evaluate our radio stations’ performance and operations. Management
believes that these measures are useful to an investor in evaluating our performance because they are widely used in the broadcast industry
as a measure of a radio company’s operating performance.

Certain adjusted non-GAAP financial measures are presented in this release (e.g., adjusted net income and adjusted net income per share). The
adjustments exclude gain/loss on sale of assets, derivative instruments, and investments; non-cash compensation expense, other income,
impairment loss and gain/loss on early extinguishment of debt. Management believes these adjusted non-GAAP measures provide useful
information to Management and investors by excluding certain income, expenses and gains and losses that may not be indicative of the
Company’s core operating and financial results. Similarly, Management believes these adjusted measures are a useful performance measure
because certain items included in the calculation of net income (loss) may either mask or exaggerate trends in the Company’s ongoing
operating

4

performance. Further, the reconciliations corresponding to these adjusted measures, by identifying the individual adjustments, provide a
useful mechanism for investors to consider these adjusted measures with some or all of the identified adjustments.

Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures on an ongoing basis to help track and assess the Company’s financial performance.
You, however, should not consider non-GAAP measures in isolation or as substitutes for net income (loss), operating income, or any other
measure for determining our operating performance that is calculated in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. These
non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. The accompanying financial
tables provide reconciliations to the nearest GAAP measure of all non-GAAP measures provided in this release.

MEMORANDUM

To: Holders of Entercom Options


From: David J. Field
Date: February 19, 2009
Subject: 2009 Option Exchange Program

I am very pleased to announce that Entercom’s Board of Directors has authorized an Option Exchange Program, subject to
shareholder approval at the May 12, 2009 annual meeting of shareholders. The Program will provide you with the opportunity to exchange
certain “underwater” stock options for a lesser number of restricted stock units in the Company.

Upon shareholder approval of this Program at our annual meeting of shareholders in May, eligible option holders will be able to
exchange all of their eligible options for a lesser number of restricted stock units in accordance with the following ratios:

O ption Exch an ge Ratio


S trik e Price (O ptions For RSUs)
At least $11.80 but
less than $30.00 2.25 for 1
$30.00 or more 4.50 for 1

Why are we doing this? Entercom’s stock option plan was designed to provide a significant reward and motivation for excellent
performance. We recognize that the options you currently hold have not achieved this goal due to the dramatic decline in the market. As you

know, this is not just an Entercom issue, a radio issue, or a media issue, it is a global economic issue; virtually all companies are experiencing
similar challenges. By addressing this problem through the Option Exchange Program, we hope each of you will be able to realize a significant
return in the future as the markets recover from the unprecedented events of 2008 and early 2009.

We expect to distribute a document that will contain the terms and conditions of the Program (referred to as the “Offer to Exchange”)
to eligible option holders in the next few weeks. Eligible option holders will then have at least 20 business days after the distribution of the
Offer to Exchange to elect to exchange their existing options. Once shareholder approval has been obtained, new restricted stock units will be
granted promptly following the end of the required 20 business day period to those eligible option holders who elect to participate in the
Program.

The Questions and Answers below are designed to address some of the initial questions you may have about the Program. If you
have additional questions, please contact Andrew Sutor at (610) 660-5655.

a high-performance organization committed to excellence and outstanding results for our listeners, our customers, our shareholders and our
communities. Together, we will continue to focus on execution and strive for excellence in our collective and individual performances. We will

Exhibit 99.3

Questions and Answers about the proposed Option Exchange Program

How do I participate in the Program?

We have not yet begun the Program, so you do not need to take any action now. Eligible Entercom option holders will receive
additional information, including the official Offer to Exchange, which will set forth the full terms and conditions of the Program, including
procedures for exchanging your options for restricted stock units.

Who will be eligible to participate in the Program?

Current Entercom employees and non-employee directors, as of the date the Program commences, who hold options with an exercise
price of $11.80 or greater will be eligible to participate in the Program. Participation will be subject to the terms and conditions specified in the
Offer to Exchange and related documents. Persons who meet the eligibility requirements at the commencement of the Program but do not
satisfy these requirements on the expiration of the 20 business day tender offer period will not be eligible to exchange their options.

What if our shareholders do not approve the amendment to the Plan?

If our shareholders do not approve the amendment to the Plan (which permits the Program) at our annual meeting in May, the
Program will not proceed, and your existing stock options will continue under their existing terms and conditions.

If I have options that are eligible for exchange, do I have to exchange them for restricted stock units?

No. Your participation in the Program is entirely voluntary. Once the Program begins (if at all), you may exchange all (but not less
than all) of your eligible options (i.e., options with a stock price of $11.80 or greater).

How many restricted stock units will I receive for each old option I exchange?

Options will be exchanged in accordance with the following ratios:

O ption Exch an ge Ratio


S trik e Price (O ptions For RSUs)
At least $11.80 but
less than $30.00 2.25 for 1
$30.00 or more 4.50 for 1

For example, if an eligible holder has 2,000 options with an exercise price of $15 per share and 2,000 options with an exercise price of
$35 per share, such holder would be permitted to exchange their options and receive the following: (i) 889 RSUs in exchange for the $15
options and (ii) 444 RSUs in exchange for the $35 options. Only whole restricted stock units

will be granted. Accordingly, the actual number of RSUs granted will be rounded to the closest whole share.

What is the difference between a stock option and restricted stock units?

A stock option is the right to buy stock at some future date at a price (the “strike price”) established at the time the option is
granted. When an option is exercised, the value realized by the holder is the spread between the strike price and the then current market price.
Options are typically not immediately exercisable but instead become exercisable over time. When an option becomes exercisable, it is said to
have “vested.”

A restricted stock unit (or “RSU”) is a grant of stock that is subject to forfeiture during a specified period. By definition, a restricted
stock unit is unvested. During the period that the RSUs are unvested, they are subject to certain restrictions (see next question for an
explanation of the applicable restrictions). The restricted stock units that will be granted in the Option Exchange Program will vest over time.
Upon vesting, the restricted stock units become unrestricted are no longer subject to forfeiture. When restricted stock units vest, the value
realized by the holder is the then current market price of the stock.

What restrictions will be imposed on the Restricted Stock Units I can receive in connection with the Program?

Until the restricted stock units vest, the holder will not have the right to vote the shares or receive dividends on such shares;
provided that upon vesting, in addition to receiving outright ownership of the shares of stock, the holder will receive a cash payment equal to
the amount of any dividends that would have been paid on such shares if they had been vested. The restricted stock units will be forfeited if,
before the shares vest, the holder ceases to be an employee or serve as a director. If a restricted stock unit is forfeited, no payment will be
made in regard to past dividends.

When will the Restricted Stock Units I can receive in connection with the Program vest?

The restricted stock units will vest 50% after 2 years, 25% after 3 years and the remaining 25% after four years.

If I elect to exchange options, will the exchange itself subject me to any income taxes?

No. The exchange of options under the Program should be treated as a non-taxable exchange to you. When the restricted stock units
vest, however, such vesting will be a taxable event.

How do I know if I am eligible to participate? How do I find out how many eligible options I have and what their exercise prices are?

We will provide you with this information at the time of the offer to exchange.

What will happen if I do not participate in the Program?

Nothing will change. All of your current stock options will continue to be valid. The terms and conditions applicable to your current
options will not change.
