                              Notice of Consummation


Dear Ms. Dortch:

               On behalf of WVUE License Subsidiary, LLC (“WVUE License Sub”), we
hereby notify the FCC the assignment of the license of the above-referenced Domestic Satellite
Transmit/Receive Earth station was consummated effective August 8, 2017.

               WVUE License Sub is the entity originally designated as the assignee when the
above-referenced application was filed on March 31, 2017. By letter of June 8, 2017, the parties
requested the substitution of Raycom EAT LLC (“Raycom EAT”) as the assignee in order to
allow Raycom Media, Inc. (“Raycom”), the ultimate parent of WVUE License Sub, to complete
a like-kind exchange involving WVUE and proceeds a Raycom station won in the Commission’s
Broadcast Incentive Auction. As the parties explained, the substitution of Raycom EAT for
WVUE License Sub was a pro forma change to the Application because Raycom would have
exclusive and direct control of Raycom EAT for all purposes other than for federal and state
income tax purposes.

              Prior to consummation of the above-captioned application, the Commission
disbursed Raycom’s Incentive Auction proceeds, at which point Raycom determined Raycom
EAT’s involvement no longer was necessary for tax purposes. Accordingly, pursuant to



DC: 6518278-1


discussions with International Bureau staff, this notice reflects the assignment of the above-
referenced license to WVUE License Sub, the originally designated assignee.

               Any questions regarding this matter may be directed to the undersigned.

                                              Respectfully yours,

                                              /s/ Michael P. Beder
                                              Michael P. Beder
                                              Counsel for WVUE License Subsidiary, LLC
