payments made on such day through an increase or decrease in intercompany accounts between Journal and Journal Spinco.  At the close of the business day immediately preceding the Distribution Date, Journal and Journal Spinco shall settle all intercompany account obligations then existing with respect to Taxes for all Affiliation Years and all Combined Years as follows: (i) any account obligations of Journal Spinco that are owned by Journal shall be netted against any account obligations of Journal that are owned by Journal Spinco; (ii) if the net remaining account obligation is owed by Journal Spinco to Journal, then this account obligation shall be transferred on such day by Journal to Journal Spinco as a contribution to capital; and (ii) if the net remaining account obligation is owed by Journal to Journal Spinco, then this account obligation shall be transferred on such day by Journal Spinco to Journal as a distribution.  Such settlement shall not be deemed to affect the treatment of the prior increases and decreases in the intercompany accounts described above in this Section 2.02(d) as being payments for purposes of this Agreement.

(e)            Assignment of Taxable Items.  The Parties shall determine the amounts of income, gain, loss, deduction, and Credit of the Journal Spinco Group for the 2015 Taxable Year that are properly includable in the Journal Consolidated Return for the taxable year of the Journal Group beginning on December 29, 2014.  For all relevant purposes of this Agreement, the members of the Journal Spinco Group and each Journal Spinco Combined Group shall cease to be members of the Journal Group and their respective Journal Combined Group as of the end of the Distribution Date, and Journal Spinco shall cause the books of account of the members of the Journal Spinco Group and the Journal Spinco Combined Groups to be closed for accounting and Tax purposes as of the end of the Distribution Date in accordance with Journal’s direction.  In determining consolidated taxable income for the taxable period that ends on the Distribution Date, the income and other items of the Journal Spinco Group shall be determined in accordance with Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1502-76(b)(1), -76(b)(2)(i) and - 76(b)(2)(iv) and no election shall be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(ii)(D) to ratably allocate items.  However, an allocation shall be made under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(iii) if such allocation is determined by the Parties to be necessary to appropriately allocate income in the event that the Distribution Date occurs on any date other than the last or first day of any month.  Pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76(b)(2)(vi), any item of a pass-through entity that is owned by a member of the Journal Spinco Group shall be allocated as if such member sold its entire interest in the entity immediately before the Distribution.  In the event that a member or members of the Journal Spinco Group would be treated as owning an interest of less than 50% in the aggregate in such pass-through entity, then pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.706-1(c)(2)(ii), each such member’s share of any distributive items shall be the amount determined by taking into account the pro rata part of such items that such member would have included in taxable income had such member remained a partner or owner of the pass-through entity until the end of the partnership tax year based on the portion of the partnership taxable year that has elapsed through the Distribution Date or upon such other reasonable method that the Parties may agree.  Journal Spinco and Journal Spinco Affiliates shall file their respective Tax Returns for the taxable period beginning on the first day after the Distribution Date consistently with such determinations.

(f)            Determining Foreign Attributes.  Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties shall also determine the portion of any Foreign Attribute for the Journal Spinco Group that is allocable to the 2015 Taxable Year, provided, that such portion to be allocated will not include any amount described in Section 951(a) of the Code (relating to inclusions in income of controlled foreign corporation earnings) or any amount described in Section 1293(a) of the Code (relating to inclusions in income of qualified electing fund earnings), or any indirect foreign Tax Credit under Sections 960 and 1293(f) of the Code for foreign income Taxes deemed paid with respect to either of these items; and provided, further, that, without the prior written consent of Journal, such consent not being unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Journal Spinco and its subsidiaries shall not elect to recapture an amount of taxable income from sources without the U.S. of any member of the Journal Spinco Group greater than the minimum amount required by Section 904(f)(1) of the Code for any Affiliation Year.  Journal Spinco shall provide Journal with all information it reasonably requests to make any determination under this Section 2.02(f).  Journal shall likewise share all information with Journal Spinco necessary for Journal Spinco to determine its share of the consolidated foreign Tax Credits for the Affiliation Year ending December 27, 2015 and all prior Affiliation Years.

SECTION 2.03.  U.S. Federal Alternative Minimum Tax.

(a)            Journal Spinco Tax Liability.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, if, for any Affiliation Year, the Journal Group is liable for alternative minimum Tax for U.S. federal income Tax purposes (or any similar U.S. federal Tax) (“AMT”) and the Journal Spinco Group would be liable for AMT if it filed a Tax Return as a separate consolidated group (“Journal Spinco Separate AMT”), the amount payable by Journal Spinco to Journal under this Article II with respect to such Affiliation Year shall in no event be less than an amount (the “Journal Spinco AMT Liability”) determined by the Parties equal to the product of the AMT liability for the Journal Group (the “Journal AMT Liability”) and a fraction (the “Fraction”) (x) the numerator of which is the sum of the Tax preference items and adjustments of the Journal Spinco Group relevant for purposes of the computation of AMT (the “TPIs”) for such Affiliation Year and (y) the denominator of which is the sum of the TPIs of all members of the Journal Group for such Affiliation Year.  The Journal Spinco AMT Liability for such Affiliation Year shall not exceed the amount of the Journal Spinco Separate AMT for such Affiliation Year.

(b)            Minimum Tax Credits.  If for any Affiliation Year Journal Spinco has paid to Journal the Journal Spinco AMT Liability, Journal shall pay to Journal Spinco its proportionate share (determined below) of the minimum Tax credit for U.S. federal

income Tax purposes (the “Minimum Tax Credit”) arising from such Affiliation Year which is actually utilized by the Journal Group in a subsequent Affiliation Year.  Journal Spinco’s proportionate share of such credit for any Affiliation Year shall be equal to the product of such credit and the Fraction (defined in subsection (a) above).  In no event shall Journal Spinco be paid amounts in the aggregate in respect of such credit in excess of the corresponding Journal Spinco AMT Liability.

SECTION 3.01.  Returns Covered.  If Journal Spinco or any Journal Spinco Affiliate is required to join in a Journal Combined Return, the allocation and settlement of amounts due among the Parties shall be governed by this Article III.  Journal Spinco irrevocably designates and agrees to cause each of its Affiliates to so designate Journal as its agent to take any and all actions necessary or incidental to the preparation and filing of Journal Combined Returns.

SECTION 3.02.  Liability of Journal Spinco.  For the taxable year beginning on December 29, 2014, and for each prior taxable year, the Parties shall determine each Journal Spinco Combined Group’s respective share, as determined below, of the total U.S. state and local Tax liability in each such Combined State (each a “Combined State Total Tax Liability”).  The Journal Spinco Combined Group’s share of each Combined State Total Tax Liability (“Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability”) will be based on the apportionment percentage of all members of the Journal Spinco Combined Group, determined with reference only to those companies that are subject to such state’s taxing jurisdiction, as if such members of the Journal Spinco Combined Group had filed a separate Combined Return; provided, however, that in the case of the taxable year beginning on December 29, 2014, such determination of the Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability shall not take into account any items of income, gain, loss deduction, or Credit attributable to any deemed sale of the assets of any member of the Journal Spinco Combined Group pursuant to Section 336(e) of the Code.  The Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability shall include any minimum or similar Taxes for members of each Journal Spinco Combined Group that may be required by the relevant state or locality.  Journal shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold Journal Spinco and the Journal Spinco Affiliates harmless against all Combined Return Tax liabilities in respect of members of the Journal Group; provided, however, that Journal Spinco shall be liable for and shall pay Journal the Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability for each Combined Return for all taxable years ending on, before or including the Distribution Date.

SECTION 3.03.  Operating Losses.  The Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability will not be reduced by, nor will Journal Spinco or any other Journal Spinco Combined Group member receive any payment, credit or benefit for, U.S. state or local net operating losses (“NOLs”), including any carryback or carryover NOLs, that any such member generates for U.S. state or local income Tax purposes on a stand-alone basis, whether or not they are used in a Combined Return (except insofar as such NOLs may reduce the Journal Spinco Combined Group’s share of the total U.S. state and local Tax liability for a Journal Combined Return).

SECTION 3.04.  Short-Year State and Local Returns.  The Parties agree that Combined Returns filed for Tax periods beginning December 29, 2014, will reflect a short taxable year for Journal Spinco ending on the Distribution Date in any state or local taxing jurisdiction in which such Tax year is allowed by administrative practice, whether or not required by law.

SECTION 3.05.  Estimated Taxes, Etc.  For each Combined State, the Parties will determine the Journal Spinco Combined Group’s estimated Tax payments and extension payments (collectively, “Estimated State Taxes”), will prescribe the information required to be provided by the Journal Spinco Combined Group to support Journal’s preparation and filing of Combined Returns and payment of Estimated State Taxes, together with a schedule of due dates for providing of such information and paying its share of Estimated State Taxes, and Journal Spinco will timely and accurately provide and pay the same to Journal, the Parties will calculate the aggregate Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability for all Combined States for a Combined Year less a credit for aggregate Estimated State Taxes paid or determine the refund due to Journal Spinco to the extent aggregate Estimated State Taxes paid by Journal Spinco exceed the aggregate Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability.  For each Combined Return, payment by Journal Spinco to Journal with respect to a Combined Year is due within three (3) business days before the date such Tax are required to be paid.  Payment by Journal to Journal Spinco of any Journal Spinco overpayment is due within five (5) business days after the return including the overpayment is filed.

SECTION 3.06.  Adjustments.

(a)            If an Adjustment occurs, the Journal Spinco Group State Tax Liability for the year in question shall be recomputed by the Parties, including all changes to apportionment percentages that result from such Adjustment.  Journal Spinco shall make payments to Journal for an increase in the Journal Spinco Group Tax Liability or Journal shall make payments to Journal Spinco for a decrease in the Journal Spinco Group Tax Liability, including its allocable share of interest, penalties and additions to Tax and external costs.  Payment in respect of such Adjustments by Journal Spinco is due at least one (1) business day before the date

payment of such Adjustment is required to be made.  Payment in respect of such Adjustments by Journal is due within five (5) business days after Journal receives a refund or credit for refund in respect of the items in question.

(b)            Subject to Article VIII, the Parties shall jointly control all Tax Contests relating to any such Adjustments.

SECTION 4.01.  Journal Spinco Tax Liability.  Journal Spinco shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Journal and Journal Affiliates against, any and all U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. Taxes that are required to be reported on any separate Tax Return of Journal Spinco or a Journal Spinco Affiliate.

SECTION 4.02.  Journal Tax Liability.  Journal shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold harmless Journal Spinco and Journal Spinco Affiliates against, any and all U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. Taxes that are required to be reported on any separate Tax Return of Journal or a Journal Affiliate.

SECTION 4.03.  Separate Return Adjustments.  If there is an adjustment to a separate Tax Return of Journal or a Journal Affiliate, or of Journal Spinco or a Journal Spinco Affiliate, as the case may be, that results in the inclusion in income in such Tax Return of income attributable to the other group of companies, and the recipient thereby incurs an Income Tax Detriment, Journal Spinco shall pay to Journal or Journal shall pay to Journal Spinco, as the case may be, an amount equal to such Income Tax Detriment (including any interest, penalties and additions to Tax) within thirty (30) business days after the Final Determination of such Income Tax Detriment.

SECTION 5.01.  Tax-Free Status Opinion, Etc.  Journal Spinco shall not take or fail to take, and shall not permit any Journal Spinco Affiliates to take or fail to take, any action inconsistent with or that will cause to be untrue any material information or representation in the representation letters that the Tax Advisor relied upon in rendering an opinion or opinions on the Tax-Free Status (“Representation Letters”) or formal advice or opinion.  Journal shall not take or fail to take, and shall not permit any Journal Affiliates to take or fail to take, any action inconsistent with or that shall cause to be untrue any material information or representation in the Representation Letters or formal advice or opinion.  In the event any material information or representation in the Representation Letters shall be untrue, Journal and Journal Spinco shall allocate the Distribution Taxes arising therefrom 75% to Journal and 25% to Journal Spinco, Journal Spinco shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold Journal and Journal Affiliates, and their direct and indirect shareholders harmless against, 25% of any Distribution Taxes and Journal shall be responsible for and shall indemnify and hold Journal Spinco and Journal Spinco Affiliates, and their direct and indirect shareholders harmless against 75% of any Distribution Taxes.

SECTION 5.03.  Limits on Proposed Acquisition Transactions.  The provisions of the Scripps Tax Matters Agreement, dated as of the 30th day of July, 2014, by and among (i) Scripps, on the one hand, and (ii) Scripps Spinco and Newco, on the other hand, shall apply with respect to actions that may trigger liability to Scripps under Section 355(e) of the Code.

SECTION 6.01.  Carryovers to Post-Affiliation Years.  The Parties shall apportion any U.S. federal consolidated net operating or capital losses, Credits or other applicable items between members of the Journal Spinco Group (departing from the Journal Group as a consequence of the Distribution and related transactions) and members of the Journal Group (not taking into account Journal Spinco Group members) pursuant to applicable Treasury Regulations promulgated under Section 1502 of the Code.  Such consolidated items and their apportionment shall be adjusted to reflect any Adjustments that take place with respect to applicable Affiliation Years.

SECTION 6.02.  Carrybacks from Post-Affiliation Years.

(a)            Carryback Items.  If Journal Spinco and/or its Affiliates sustain U.S. federal capital or net operating losses or generate U.S. federal Credits in a Post-Affiliation Year which may be carried back to an Affiliation Year and will generate an Income Tax Benefit, Journal Spinco may request Journal to file a Section 6.02 Claim with the IRS with respect to the U.S. federal income Tax liability of the Journal Group for such Affiliation Year.  Journal shall have sole discretion whether to accept a request to file carryback claims (except for foreign Tax Credit or domestic source capital loss carryback claims) and file any amended Tax Returns or claims for refund relating thereto, which discretion may be exercised without regard to satisfying a standard of good faith or any other standard provided for in this Agreement or elsewhere.  With regard to requests to file claims to carryback foreign Tax Credits or domestic source capital losses to an Affiliation Year, Journal shall implement such requests it determines in good faith to be available on the terms set forth hereinafter.

(b)            Procedures.  If Journal files a Section 6.02 Claim, Journal shall have full control over the Section 6.02 Claim and shall consult with Journal Spinco to determine the nature of all actions to be taken in connection with such claim.  If there is any limitation that applies to the Journal Group in respect of all or a portion of the items that comprise a Section 6.02 Claim in respect of foreign Tax Credits or domestic source capital losses, any Income Tax Benefit in respect of such claim shall be determined by Journal in consultation with Journal Spinco.  If there are any limitations in the ability of the Journal Group to utilize items in the same category as the items that comprise such claim, any Income Tax Benefit shall be determined by Journal in consultation with Journal Spinco based on the assumption that the items were utilized on a Proportionate Basis. Journal shall pay to Journal Spinco the amount of the Income Tax Benefit, if any, derived from such claim within 30 business days after it receives a refund or credit for refund therefor.  Journal Spinco shall repay to Journal all or a portion of such amount to the extent the Income Tax Benefit is reduced as a result of an Adjustment for any Affiliation Year or otherwise, together with applicable interest and penalties.  If Journal elects to file a Section 6.02 Claim in respect of the carryback of any attribute other than foreign Tax Credits or domestic source capital losses, the terms for payment and other provisions shall be determined based upon the mutual agreement, if any, of the Parties.  If Journal files a Section 6.02 Claim, Journal Spinco shall indemnify Journal for any additional Taxes or loss of Tax benefits incurred by a member of the Journal Group (including interest, penalties and additions to Tax), other than a member of the Journal Spinco Group, arising from such claim.  Journal shall also be entitled to reimbursement from Journal Spinco for any reasonable external costs for professional services incurred by Journal in connection with the Section 6.02 Claim whether or not Journal Spinco receives payment or credit therefor.

SECTION 7.01.  Determination.  If an Adjustment occurs, the liability of Journal Spinco or Journal, as the case may be, pursuant to Article II, or the amounts allocated pursuant to Article VI, shall be recomputed by the Parties.  As recomputed for purposes of Article II, Journal Spinco shall make payments to Journal for an increase in Journal Spinco’s liability or Journal shall make payments to Journal Spinco for an increase in Journal’s liability.  For purposes of Sections 2.01 and 2.02, Journal Spinco’s liability shall be deemed to have increased as a result of any Adjustment that results in an increase in the Adjusted Separate Journal Spinco Group Federal Tax Liability or a decrease in the Excess Journal Group Benefits, and Journal’s liability shall be deemed to have increased as a result of any Adjustment that results in a decrease in the Adjusted Separate Journal Spinco Group Federal Tax Liability or an increase in the Excess Journal Group Benefits.

SECTION 7.02.  Payments.  Payments due from Journal Spinco to Journal shall be made no later than one (1) business day before the due date for payment by Journal to a Taxing authority upon the Final Determination of the items in question, or, to the extent no such payment to a Taxing authority is due, within ten (10) business days after the date of such Final Determination.  Payments due from Journal to Journal Spinco shall be made within ten (10) business days after Journal receives a refund or a credit for a refund with regard to the items in question after a Final Determination therefor.  Such payments shall include any applicable interest, penalties and additions to Tax and, if applicable, any reasonable external costs for professional services incurred by Journal thereon.  In calculating any interest payable by Journal Spinco to Journal hereunder, interest, if any, due from Journal to the IRS shall first be deemed to arise with respect to the increase in the liability of Journal Spinco, as determined above.

SECTION 7.03.  Procedures.  Subject to Section 6.02, for any Affiliation Year or Combined Year, the Parties will determine whether to give effect, through any Tax Return, claim for refund or otherwise, to items of loss, deduction or Credit for the Journal Spinco Group which are greater than those reflected on prior Tax Returns and the nature of all actions taken with respect thereto.  If Journal files such a claim, Journal Spinco shall indemnify Journal for any additional Taxes or loss of Tax benefits incurred by a member of the Journal Group or the applicable Journal Combined Group (including interest, penalties and additions to Tax), other than a member of the Journal Spinco Group, arising from such claim.

SECTION 7.04.  Intercompany Adjustments.  If any transaction or arrangement between Journal and/or Journal Affiliates, on the one hand, and Journal Spinco and/or Journal Spinco Affiliates, on the other hand, is recharacterized for applicable Tax

purposes under Section 482 of the Code or otherwise and such recharacterization results in an Income Tax Detriment to one applicable group of companies and an Income Tax Benefit to the other group, the group incurring the Income Tax Detriment shall be paid by the other group an amount equal to such Income Tax Detriment (including any interest, penalties and additions to Tax) within thirty (30) business days after the Final Settlement of such Income Tax Detriment.  In addition, each Party shall be responsible for, and shall indemnify and hold the other Parties and their Affiliates harmless against, any Taxes attributable to intercompany items or otherwise for any stock or other assets (tangible or intangible) transferred to it (or a Journal Affiliate, in the case of Journal, or a Journal Spinco Affiliate, in the case of Journal Spinco ) from another Party (or from a Journal Affiliate, in the case of Journal, or a Journal Spinco Affiliate, in the case of Journal Spinco) for which it is determined not to have paid or provided fair market value consideration.

SECTION 8.01.  Notice.  Each Party shall provide prompt notice to the other Parties of any pending or threatened Tax audit, assessment, proceeding or other Tax Contest of which it becomes aware that could affect any Tax liability for which any other Party may be responsible under this Agreement; provided, however, that failure to give prompt notice shall not affect the indemnification obligations hereunder except to the extent the Party providing indemnification is actually prejudiced thereby.  Such notice shall contain factual information (to the extent known) describing such matters in reasonable detail and shall be accompanied by copies of any notice and other documents received from any Taxing authority in respect of any such matters.

SECTION 8.02.  Journal Spinco and Journal Issues.  Journal and Journal Spinco hereby agree that during the course of an audit or any Tax Contest relating to any Affiliation Year or Combined Year, they will in good faith endeavor to discuss and resolve separately with the IRS or any equivalent state or local Taxing authority (as the case may be) any Journal Spinco Issues and Journal Issues.  “Journal Spinco Issues” are issues relating to items of income, gain, loss, deduction, or Credit that are attributable solely to the Journal Spinco Group and that could not reasonably have material adverse consequences for the U.S. federal, state or local income Tax liability of a member of the Journal Group (other than a member of the Journal Spinco Group) if resolved against the taxpayer.  “Journal Issues” are any other issues, including issues relating to Foreign Attributes of the Journal Spinco Group.

SECTION 8.03.  Procedures.

(b)            After the filing of such protest, Journal and Journal Spinco shall jointly meet with the IRS, state or local representatives responsible for disposing of the issues in dispute and request the separate resolution of the Journal Issues and Journal Spinco Issues.  They shall further request that the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority assign separate representatives to conduct any review of or proceedings on their respective issues.

(c)            Regardless of whether the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority agrees to resolve the issues affecting each Party or assign separate representatives to deal with the issues of each, Journal and Journal Spinco each will attend meetings and will prepare written presentations to be made to the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority regarding any Adjustments proposed only with respect to its respective issues.  Journal and Journal Spinco shall keep each other promptly informed of any developments and discussions at any such meetings concerning Adjustments, whether or not formally proposed, affecting the other such Party.

(d)            For each Affiliation Year or Combined Year, Journal shall have control of all Journal Issues not otherwise settled at the audit or appeals level of the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority.  For each Affiliation Year or Combined Year, Journal Spinco shall have control of all Journal Spinco Issues not otherwise settled by Journal Spinco at the audit or appeals level of the IRS or equivalent state or local Taxing authority (“Journal Spinco Unsettled Issues”).

(e)            To the extent any Journal Issues could affect any Tax liability for which the Journal Spinco Group may be responsible, Journal Spinco shall have joint control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any deficiency, claim or Adjustment, and Journal shall not settle any such Journal Issue without the consent of Journal Spinco, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.  To the extent that any Journal Spinco Issues could affect any Tax liability for

(a)            Except with respect to injunctive relief described below, any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or the breach thereof, shall attempt to be settled first, by good faith efforts of the Parties to reach mutual agreement, and second, if mutual agreement is not reached to resolve the dispute, by final, binding arbitration as set out below.

(b)            A Party that wishes to initiate the dispute resolution process shall send written notice to the other Parties, in accordance with this Section 16.11, with a summary of the controversy and a request to initiate these dispute resolution procedures.  Each Party shall appoint a knowledgeable, responsible representative who has the authority to settle the dispute, to meet and to negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute.  The discussions shall be left to the discretion of the representatives who may utilize other alternative dispute resolution procedures such as mediation to assist in the negotiations.  Discussions and correspondence among the representatives for purposes of these negotiations (i) shall be treated as confidential Information developed for purposes of settlement, (ii) shall be exempt from discovery and production and (iii) shall not be admissible in the arbitration described below or in any lawsuit pursuant to Rule 408 of the Federal Rules of Evidence.  Documents identified in or provided with such communications that are not prepared for purposes of the negotiations are not so exempted and may, if otherwise admissible, be

admitted in evidence in the arbitration or lawsuit.  The Parties agree to pursue resolution under this subsection for a minimum of 30 calendar days before requesting arbitration.

(d)            The foregoing notwithstanding, each Party shall have the right to seek injunctive relief in an applicable court of law or equity to preserve the status quo pending resolution of the dispute and enforce any decision relating to the resolution of the dispute.

(e)            Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this Section 16.11 shall not be applicable to any disagreement between the Parties relating to Distribution Taxes and any such dispute shall be settled in a court of law or as otherwise agreed to by the Parties.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have entered into this Agreement as of the date first above written.
