Lady and Gentleman,
I refer to our letter to the Board of Directors of Emmis Communications Corporation (“Emmis”) dated August 18, 2016, as amended, containing a proposal (the “Proposal”) by the Purchaser described therein to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock of Emmis that are not beneficially owned by me or certain rollover investors at a cash purchase price of $4.10 per share. This letter is to confirm that the Proposal expired today pursuant to its terms and has not been extended. I am sorry we could not reach an agreement on the valuation. I look forward to continuing to work with you as we move Emmis forward as a public company.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Jeff Smulyan
President, E Acquisition Corporation
