Subject: Message from Randy and Gerry/Confirmation Hearing Date Set


Today the judge overseeing our Chapter 11 filing set the week of August 16th as the date of the confirmation hearing on Tribune’s plan of reorganization. As you know, we submitted the plan last week, so this is another positive step forward in our effort to emerge from bankruptcy before the end of the year.

In another development today, all the parties involved in our case agreed to the appointment of a special examiner who will look into the details of our 2007 going private transaction. The court set July 12th as the date for the examiner to submit his report. The judge said he did not want the timing of the report to delay the confirmation hearing.

We’ll continue keeping you updated as the Chapter 11 process moves forward.

Randy and Gerry
