-- Listener hours for Pandora during the month of October 2012 were 1.25
billion, an increase of 65% from 754 million during the same period last
year.

-- Share of total U.S. radio listening for Pandora in October 2012 was

Pandora is releasing key audience metrics on a monthly basis to provide the most current information regarding Pandora's users and usage across platforms. Because Pandora calculates radio market share using a seven-day trailing period as of the end of the month, this figure was temporarily suppressed by the effect of Hurricane Sandy. As of October 24, 2012, the company's market share was 6.75%.
