Commitments And Contingencies Disclosure Text Block	13. CONTINGENCIES AND COMMITMENTS Contingencies The Company is subject to various outstanding claims which arise in the ordinary course of business and to other legal proceedings. Management anticipates that any potential liability of the Company, which may arise out of or with respect to these matters, will not materially affect the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows. There were no material changes from the contingencies listed in the Company’s Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 16, 2018, except as described below. Other In February 2018, the Company entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement to purchase two radio stations in St. Louis, Missouri from Emmis Communications for $15.0 million in cash. With this acquisition, the Company will increase its presence in St. Louis, Missouri, to six radio stations. On March 1, 2018, the Company commenced operations under a TBA. The Company completed this transaction on April 30, 2018. The Company has a relationship with United States Traffic Network (“USTN”), a vendor that provides short duration advertising network services (e.g., sponsored traffic reports) and guaranteed revenue to the Company. USTN’s former corporate parent, Global Traffic Network (“GTN”), indicated that USTN is in financial distress and that GTN has ceased operations in the United States. In February 2018, the Company sent a protective notice to cancel its CBS Radio USTN contract effective in late March 2018. On March 14, 2018, GTN announced that it sold 100% of its ownership interest in USTN to an entity controlled by the president of USTN. On April 27, 2018, the Company executed a series of agreements with USTN which replaced outstanding accounts receivable from USTN with a senior secured note and an equity interest in USTN. The Company has not recognized revenue from USTN since the Merger, as the Company has determined that the revenue is not collectable at this time, which negatively impacted net revenues by approximately $12.0 million in the three months ended March 31, 2018. This position, however, could change in future quarters as circumstances change.
