                                                                                     Pro Forma Assignment
                                                                                           August 10, 2016

                                               FCC Form 312
                                                EXHIBIT F

                                            Changes In Interests

                 This instant application seeks FCC consent to a pro forma assignment of the

transmit-receive earth station license used in connection with WBIR-TV, Knoxville, Tennessee,

from a direct subsidiary of TEGNA Inc. (“TEGNA”) to a newly-formed direct subsidiary of

TEGNA.

                 As reflected in the “Before” diagram provided as Attachment A, station WBIR-

TV and its transmit-receive earth station are currently licensed to TEGNA Pacific, LLC, a

Hawaii limited liability company, whose sole member and parent company is TEGNA. 1 As

reflected in the “After” diagram provided as Attachment B, the proposed assignee of WBIR-

TV’s licenses is WBIR-TV, LLC, a newly-formed Delaware limited liability company whose

sole member and parent company also is TEGNA. Accordingly, the proposed transaction meets

the Commission’s requirements for the use of pro forma procedures. The transmit-receive earth

station authorization identified in this FCC Form 312 application is used in connection with the

operation of the licensee’s television station, and no change in the operation or use of the earth

station authorization will occur as a result of the grant of this pro forma assignment of license.

Accordingly, the public interest would be served by prompt consent to this application.




1
  In connection with the anticipated intra-corporate reorganization, Articles of Termination for TEGNA Pacific,
LLC, were inadvertently filed in Hawaii prematurely, on April 25, 2016. TEGNA accordingly requests nunc pro
tunc approval for this pro forma assignment of WBIR-TV’s license to the extent that the license might be deemed to
have been assigned upon the erroneous filing of the Articles of Termination.
