Financials2009 Financial Discussion

• The 4th Qtr effect on ‘09

• The decision to over deliver was made initially for covenant reasons, by over delivering the 4 th qtr we are

essentially moving ebitda from ‘08 to ‘09.

• We began to experiment with station group deals and shorter rotation buys. This experimentation led to new

buy lines that were not fully utilized at each station and subsequently increased our inventory base. The

new buy lines in some cases would provide higher ratings enabling us to further compete on value and not a

lowest cost basis.

• 1st Qtr Details

• The options were firmed up in the 4th qtr, prior to the continued decline of the economy.

• Canceled March Station orders to improve profit and take advantage of the soft local market by leveraging

March and the 2nd Qtr combined.

• Take advantage of low CPM’s by increasing the over delivery carried forward from $2.8m (end of 4Q) to

$6.4m. This was an extremely difficult task since you had to estimate what future options would be taken so

that you do not waste over delivery.

• The second Qtr “Roll Back” offer resulted in scatter deals that totaled over $9m.

Financials2009 Financial Discussion

• 2nd Qtr Details

• The offer of “Roll Backs” to clients were well received. The cancellation of 50-100% of the options on a client

basis was a reality so being proactive resulted in maintaining a good portion of our booked revenue. Initial

offer of 10% Roll Back on optionable dollars did not gain the traction we had hoped, so in many cases we

reset the 2nd & 3rd qtr upfront.

• Change in Buying Execution, creating minimal bases supplemented by high close in buying, creates a

dynamic risk/reward only to be executed in a soft market. The close in buying takes advantage of

distressed/opportunistic inventory while closely monitoring indexing, coverage and the possibility of local

tightening on a market by market basis.

• Planners must effectively execute & maintain the national unit structure based on this new degree of

complexity, while dealing with a different station weighting metrix, resulting in more volatile conversions.

• This is the Qtr where the bulk of the over delivery will be realized based on its high CPM. Schedules are

adjusted to realize prior over delivery to maximize profit, while still maintaining the integrity of the contractual

parameters sold.

• ITN’s proactive position of Roll Backs should put us in a priority placement for Scatter budgets.

Financials2009 Financial Discussion

• 3rd Qtr Details

• Options are estimated at the 2nd Qtr option % applied to the optionable dollars, and that estimated scatter will

be equal to 1Q of $9m.

• We have not bought the third qtr but based on over delivery and our 2nd qtr negotiations we are estimating the

profit margin to be slightly higher than ’08, if the 2nd qtr buying initiative gains traction and optionable dollars

are secured.

• Continue minimal base buys supplemented with close in buying while cautiously monitoring to see if the

local market shows signs of tightening.

• 4th Qtr Details

• The Billing is based on 80% of 4 Q ‘08 upfront in addition to the same scatter as 4 Q ‘08.

• Profit Margin is based on the ‘09 budget until we begin the 09/10 upfront negotiations.
