Explanation of Responses:

1. In connection with the spin-off of the Issuer from TEGNA Inc. on June 29, 2015, this outstanding and unvested time-vesting TEGNA restricted stock unit (RSU) award granted in 2015 was converted into an RSU award denominated in shares of the Issuer's common stock. The number of underlying shares was adjusted (based in part on the volume weighted average per-share price of the Issuer's common stock during each of the first five full NYSE trading sessions commencing June 29, 2015) in a manner intended to preserve the aggregate intrinsic value of the original TEGNA RSU award. This amendment is being filed to disclose the number of shares of the Issuer's common stock underlying this RSU. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Issuer's underlying common stock.

2. These RSUs vest in four equal quarterly installments beginning on August 1, 2015. Vested shares will be delivered to the reporting person as soon as administratively practicable upon the reporting person's separation from service with the Issuer.
