On January 30, 2007, the Federal Communications Commission (the FCC) granted the transfer of the Companys station WTVK-TV serving the Ft. Myers-Naples, Florida marketplace to Sun Broadcasting, Inc. (Sun). The asset purchase agreement for WTVK-TV to which the Company and Sun are parties requires a closing to take place no later than ten business days subsequent to the FCCs granting of the transfer. The Company expects the previously announced sale transaction, which is subject to customary closing conditions including release of lender liens, assignment consents and the receipt of the purchase price, to close by mid-February 2007.
