Sale of Joint Venture and Pending Merger Transaction
On February 12, 2013, the Company, and its wholly-owned subsidiaries LIN Television Corporation (“LIN Television”) and LIN Television of Texas, L.P. (“LIN Texas”) entered into a series of transactions whereby in exchange for a $100 million capital contribution to Station Venture Holdings LLC (“SVH”), the Company’s joint venture with NBCUniversal Media LLC, LIN Texas sold its interest in SVH and the Company was released from certain obligations including its guarantee of the $815.5 million note payable by SVH to General Electric Capital Corporation (the “JV Sale Transaction”). To fund this contribution, the Company entered into a $60 million incremental term loan facility and utilized $40 million of cash on hand and borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
Concurrent with the closing of the JV Sale Transaction, the Company also entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with LIN Media LLC, a newly formed Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of LIN TV Corp. (“LIN LLC”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, LIN TV Corp. will be merged with and into LIN LLC with LIN LLC continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). The Merger, which is subject to shareholder approval (among other closing conditions), is expected to enable LIN LLC to be classified as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, and such change in classification would be treated as a liquidation of LIN TV Corp. for federal income tax purposes with the result that LIN TV Corp. would recognize a gain or loss, as applicable, in its 100% equity interest in LIN Television.
The Merger is expected to generate sufficient capital losses to fully offset the capital gains recognized in the JV Sale Transaction if the price of the Company’s class A common stock at the closing of the Merger is at or below approximately $10.30 per share (based on current aggregate outstanding shares of classes A, B and C of approximately 54.3 million). At closing prices greater than this amount up to approximately $11.85 per share, the Company is expected to consume its remaining net operating losses to fully offset the recognized capital gains. For each added $1.00 per share that the Company’s class A common stock price exceeds approximately $11.85 at closing, the Company expects to incur cash income taxes of approximately $20 million. If the trading price of the Company’s class A common stock price at the effective time of the Merger is at or below $11.85 per share, the Company does not expect to incur any cash income taxes related to the Merger.
In addition, it is possible that, if the trading price of the Company’s class A common stock significantly increases to a price greater than approximately $20.00 per share, the Company would not be able to recognize a capital loss as a result of the merger to use to offset against the capital gain recognized in the JV Sale Transaction. Furthermore, at the time of the Merger, if the Company’s class A common stock was trading at a price greater than approximately $20.00 per share, it is probable that the board of directors would not consummate the Merger because the Company would be required to pay any resulting tax liabilities from the JV Sale Transaction with cash on hand and available borrowings (which may be insufficient).
Subsequent Events
On May 2, 2013, LIN LLC filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) with respect to the LIN LLC class A common shares that will be issued in the Merger. The Registration Statement was subsequently amended on May 8, 2013 and also includes a proxy statement to be used by the Company in order to solicit proxies from its stockholders for the approval of the Merger at a special meeting of stockholders.
On April 4, 2013, the Company acquired a 50.1% interest in HYFN, Inc., a full service digital advertising agency that develops and implements mobile, social and web experiences and, on April 9, 2013, the Company acquired a 60% interest in Dedicated Media,

Access to Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Supplemental Financial Data
The Company reports and discusses its operating results using financial measures consistent with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and believes this should be the primary basis for evaluating its performance. Non-GAAP financial measures such as Broadcast Cash Flow (“BCF”), Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (“EBITDA”) and Free Cash Flow (“FCF”) should not be viewed as alternatives or substitutes for GAAP reporting. However, BCF, Adjusted EBITDA and FCF are common supplemental measures of performance used by investors, lenders, rating agencies and financial analysts. As a result, these non-GAAP measures can provide certain additional insight about the market value of the Company and its stations; the Company’s ability to fund acquisitions, investments and working capital needs; the Company’s ability to service its debt; the Company’s performance versus other peer companies in its industry; and other operating performance trends for its business. The Company makes available reconciliations of its operating income, a GAAP reporting measure, to BCF, Adjusted EBITDA and FCF on the Company’s web site. In addition, the Company provides additional information on its web site, at the same location, regarding historical revenue by source, pro forma income statement information and certain other components of cash flow. Interested parties should go to the Investor Relations section of www.linmedia.com.

The information discussed in this press release, particularly in the section with the heading “Business Outlook,” includes forward-looking statements about the Company’s future operating results within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Company based these forward-looking statements on its current assumptions, knowledge, estimates and projections about factors that could affect its future operations. Although the Company believes that its assumptions made in connection with the forward-looking statements are reasonable, no assurances can be given that those assumptions and expectations will prove to be correct. Statements in this press release that are forward-looking include, but are not limited to, local, national and political advertising growth; changes in interactive, network compensation, barter and other revenues; changes in direct operating, selling, general and administrative, amortization of program rights and corporate expenses; and cash programming, cash capital expenditures, cash interest expense and principal amortization, cash tax payments and effective tax rates. These forward-looking statements are subject to various risks, uncertainties and assumptions which may cause these expectations and assumptions not to occur or to differ materially from those outcomes projected in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, general economic uncertainty; restrictions on the Company’s operations as a result of the Company’s indebtedness; global or local events that could disrupt TV broadcasting; softening of the domestic advertising market; further consolidation of national and local advertisers, and the national sales representation market; risks associated with acquisitions, and the integration of any acquired businesses; changes in TV viewing patterns, ratings and commercial viewing measurement; increases in news and syndicated programming costs, and capital expenditures; changes in television network affiliation agreements and retransmission consent agreements; changes in government regulation; competition; seasonality; effects of complying with accounting standards; potential influence of certain stockholders, including HM Capital Partners I, LP and its affiliates, tax impact of the JV Sale Transaction; effects of the Merger, including the potential impact to the value of our stock price leading up to and as a result of the Merger and the potential adverse effect on liquidity if the Merger is not consummated, and other risks discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Registration Statement on Form S-4 filed on May 2, 2013, and later amended on May 8, 2013, and other filings made with the SEC (which are available on the Investor Relations section of www.linmedia.com, or at www.sec.gov), which are incorporated in this release by reference.

On May 2, 2013, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC containing a preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.
