          A Fee Payment is Required for this application. The Total Fee is $270.

          You can use the FCC's Electronic Form 159 System to pay electronically and/or to print out an appropriate
          Form 159. Press the button below now or return to this screen later by pressing the "Pay Fee" button on the
          CDBS Main Menu/ Informal Menu. See the CDBS User's Guide for more information about fee payment.




          Payment must be received by US Bank within 14 (calendar) days of the date that the application is officially
          received by the Media Bureau's electronic filing system (indicated by the reference number above). This
          deadline applies to any payment submission method (electronic or via a paper check). If payment is not
          received in time, the filed application will be considered to be not paid and will therefore not be processed by
          the MB.

         Exhibit 2
         Description: USE OF FCC FORM 316

         THE INSTANT APPLICATION REQUESTS FCC CONSENT FOR THE LICENSEE'S CONVERSION FROM A LOUISIANA
         CORPORATION INTO A LOUISIANA LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY.

         UNDER LOUISIANA LAW, THE CHANGE IN ORGANIZATIONAL FORM IS REGARDED AS CONVERSION OF THE FORM
         OF THE ENTITY AND NOT A TERMINATION OF THE ENTITY. THE CONVERTED ENTITY CONTINUES ITS EXISTENCE
         AND THE PROCESS OF CONVERSION ITSELF DOES NOT ALTER THE OWNERSHIP INTERESTS OF THE EQUITY
         HOLDERS OF THE CONVERTED ENTITY.

         AS THIS REPRESENTS A CORPORATE REORGANIZATION WHICH INVOLVES NO
         SUBSTANTIAL CHANGE IN THE BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF THE CORPORATION, USE OF FCC FORM 316 IS
         APPROPRIATE.

         Attachment 2


         Exhibit 4
         Description: AGREEMENTS

         THE LICENSEE HAS ATTACHED THE APPLICATION FOR CONVERSION, AS FILED WITH THE OFFICE OF THE
         SECRETARY OF STATE FOR THE STATE OF LOUISIANA. THE APPLICATION FOR CONVERSION PROVIDES FOR THE
         CONVERSION OF THE LICENSEE FROM A LOUISIANA CORPORATION TO A LOUISIANA LIMITED LIABILITY
         COMPANY. UNDER LOUISIANA STATE LAW, THE CONVERSION OF THE LICENSEE CHANGED THE
         ORGANIZATIONAL FORM OF THE LICENSEE BUT DID NOT CHANGE THE OWNERSHIP OR TERMINATE THE
         EXISTENCE OF THE LICENSEE. THE APPLICATION FOR CONVERSION WAS FILED ON DECEMBER 31, 2009, WITH AN
         EFFECTIVE DATE OF DECEMBER 31, 2009. BECAUSE THE CONVERSION WAS UNDERTAKEN FOR TAX PURPOSES
         AND DID NOT CHANGE THE OWNERSHIP OF THE LICENSEE, THROUGH INADVERTENCE THE LICENSEE DID NOT
         FILE A FORM 316 PRO FORMA APPLICATION. THE LICENSEE REGRETS THIS OVERSIGHT AND IS FILING THE
         INSTANT APPLICATION TO BRING THE COMMISSION'S RECORDS UP TO DATE.

         Changes in Interests


         Exhibit 13
         Description: ACQUISITION OF CONTROL

         THE FCC MOST RECENTLY REVIEWED AND APPROVED THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THE PARTIES HOLDING A
         MAJORITY OF THE ATTRIBUTABLE INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY IN FCC FILE NO. BALCT-20081230AFW, GRANTED
         JULY 30, 2009. IN THAT APPLICATION, THE FCC REVIEWED AND APPROVED THE COMMON OWNERSHIP OF
         KTBS-TV, SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA, AND KPXJ(TV), SHREVEPORT, LOUISIANA BY KTBS, INC. AS DESCRIBED IN
         THAT APPLICATION, NO SINGLE PERSON OR ENTITY HELD A MAJORITY INTEREST IN THE COMPANY. THREE OF
         ATTRIBUTABLE PARTIES COLLECTIVELY HELD OVER SIXTY PERCENT (60%) OF THE SHARES OF THE COMPANY.
         AS DEMONSTRATED IN EXHIBIT 10 TO THE INSTANT APPLICATION, THE SAME THREE PARTIES (LOIS WRAY
         ROWE, EDWIN N. WRAY, JR., AND BETTY WRAY ANDERSON (TRUSTEE OF THE WRAY PROPERTIES TRUST))
         CONTINUE TO CONTROL OVER SIXTY PERCENT (60%) OF THE OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY. EACH OF THESE
         PARTIES CONTROLS THEIR INTERESTS INDEPENDENTLY AND THERE ARE NO VOTING AGREEMENTS BETWEEN
         THE THREE PARTIES.

         THE FCC REVIEWED AND APPROVED THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THESE SAME THREE PARTIES IN THE COMPANY'S
         1992 LONG FORM TRANSFER OF CONTROL APPLICATION (FCC FILE NO. BTCCT-19920608KF, GRANTED AUGUST 14,
         1992). AS DESCRIBED IN THAT 1992 APPLICATION, NO SINGLE PERSON OR ENTITY HELD A MAJORITY INTEREST IN
         THE COMPANY. FROM THAT TIME TO THE PRESENT, OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY HAVE BEEN
         TRANSFERRED BETWEEN VARIOUS MEMBERS OF THE WRAY FAMILY OR THEIR DESIGNEES (PRINCIPALLY BY
         INHERITANCE) SUCH THAT THE PERCENTAGES HELD BY THE PARTIES REVIEWED AND APPROVED IN THE 1992
         APPLICATION HAVE CHANGED OVER TIME. HOWEVER, NO SINGLE PERSON OR ENTITY HAS EVER HELD A
         MAJORITY OF THE OWNERSHIP INTERESTS AND AT LEAST 60 PERCENT HAS REMAINED IN THE CONTROL OF
         PARTIES REVIEWED AND APPROVED BY THE FCC IN THE 1992 APPLICATION.

         AS NOTED ABOVE, THE CONVERSION OF THE COMPANY FROM A LOUISIANA CORPORATION TO A LOUISIANA
         LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY DID NOT CHANGE THE BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY.

         CERTAIN OF THE ATTRIBUTABLE PARTIES DISCLOSED IN THIS APPLICATION HELD PRE-EXISTING INTERESTS IN
         THE COMPANY THAT WERE PREVIOUSLY CONSIDERED NON-ATTRIBUTABLE UNDER THE FCC'S RULES BECAUSE
         THEY HELD LESS THAN FIVE PERCENT (5%) OF THE STOCK OF KTBS, INC. UPON THE CONVERSION OF THE
         COMPANY INTO A LIMITED LIABILITY COMPANY, THESE PARTIES BECAME ATTRIBUTABLE UNDER THE FCCS
         RULES, ALTHOUGH THEIR PROPORTIONATE OWNERSHIP INTERESTS IN THE COMPANY DID NOT CHANGE AS A
         RESULT OF THE CONVERSION. EACH OF THESE NEWLY ATTRIBUTABLE MEMBERS HOLDS LESS THAN FOUR
         PERCENT (4%) OF THE OWNERSHIP OF THE COMPANY. ONE MEMBER OF THE COMPANY, WHICH HOLDS A FOUR
         POINT TWO PERCENT (4.2%) INTEREST, ELECTED TO BECOME A NON-ATTRIBUTABLE INSULATED LIMITED
         LIABILITY COMPANY MEMBER UNDER THE TERMS OF THE COMPANY'S OPERATING AGREEMENT AND IN
         ACCORDANCE WITH THE FCCS RULES.

                                         Exhibit 10
                        Changes in Interests as a Result of Assignment

        As described in Exhibit 2 hereto, the instant application covers the conversion of the
licensee from a Louisiana corporation to a Louisiana limited liability company. As stated in the
Application for Conversion filed with the State of Louisiana (attached to this application at
Exhibit 4): “Each one (1%) percent of no par value common shares of stock in the converting
entity shall be exchanged for one (1%) percent membership interest of the converted entity.”
Thus, the process of conversion itself does not result in any change in the ultimate ownership or
control of the licenses.

        As described in Exhibit 13 to this application, the FCC previously reviewed and approved
the qualifications of the parties that collectively hold a majority of the interests in the company
(See FCC File No. BALCT-20081230AFW, granted July 30, 2009, and FCC File No. BTCCT-
19920608KF, granted August 14, 1992). Certain of the attributable parties disclosed in this
application, however, were previously considered non-attributable under the FCC's rules because
they held less than five percent (5%) of the stock of KTBS, Inc. Upon the conversion of the
company into a limited liability company, these parties became attributable under the FCC’s
rules, although their proportionate ownership interests in the company did not change as a result
of the conversion. Each of these newly attributable members (designated with an asterisk below)
holds less than four percent (4%) of the ownership of the company and they collectively own less
than fourteen percent (14%) of the company. One member of the company, which holds a four
point two percent (4.2%) interest, elected to become a non-attributable insulated limited liability
company member under the terms of the company's operating agreement and in accordance with
the FCC's rules. The ownership interests of each of the attributable owners of the company
immediately before and immediately after the assignment are set forth below.

        As noted above, the conversion of the company did not result in an change in the
proportionate ownership of the company. After the completion of the conversion of the
company into a limited liability company, however, the ownership interests held by the Estate of
George Wray were fully distributed to the beneficiaries of the Estate. As the Estate held just
thirteen point two percent (13.2%) of the ownership interests in the company and the distribution
of the interests did not result in any party gaining or losing de facto or de jure control of the
company, this distribution itself does not constitute a change in ownership or control requiring
prior consent. Nevertheless, in the interest of keeping the Commission’s records completely up-
to-date, the complete and current attributable ownership of the company is set forth below.
