reorganization in which a new holding company (the Company) would become the publicly-traded parent of the Predecessor and its subsidiaries (the &#147;Reorganization&#148;). Also on April&nbsp;3, 2023 in connection with such intended Reorganization,
the Predecessor entered into an Agreement of Share Exchange and Plan of Reorganization (the &#147;Reorganization Agreement&#148;) with the Company and Sinclair Holdings, LLC. Effective as of 12:00 a.m. on June&nbsp;1, 2023, pursuant to the terms of
the Reorganization Agreement, each outstanding share of the Predecessor&#146;s Class&nbsp;A common stock and Class&nbsp;B common stock was exchanged automatically on
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap"><FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">a&nbsp;one-for-one&nbsp;basis</FONT></FONT> for a share of Class&nbsp;A common stock and Class&nbsp;B common stock, respectively, of the Company. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Following the Reorganization, the Company is the successor issuer to the Predecessor pursuant to Rule 414 under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;), and Rule <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">12g-3(a)</FONT> under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the &#147;Exchange Act&#148;). Accordingly, the Registrant&#146;s Class&nbsp;A common stock,
par value $0.01 per share, is deemed to be registered under Section&nbsp;12(b) of the Exchange Act and will trade on the NASDAQ Stock Market&#146;s Global Select Market under the ticker symbol &#147;SBGI.&#148; In connection with the Reorganization,

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Registrant&#146;s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws require the Registrant to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent
permitted by Maryland law. Under current Maryland law, the Registrant will indemnify (i)&nbsp;any director or officer who has been successful, on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of a proceeding to which he or she was made a party by reason
of his or her service in that capacity, against reasonable expenses incurred by him or her in connection with the proceeding and (ii)&nbsp;any present or former director or officer against any claim or liability unless it is established that
(a)&nbsp;his or her act or omission was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and was committed in bad faith or was the result of active and deliberate dishonesty; (b)&nbsp;he or she actually received an improper personal benefit in
money, property or services; or (c)&nbsp;in the case of a criminal proceeding, he or she had reasonable cause to believe that his or her act or omission was unlawful. In addition, the Registrant&#146;s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws require
the Registrant to pay or reimburse, in advance of the final disposition of a proceeding, expenses incurred by a director or officer to the fullest extent provided by Maryland law. Current Maryland law provides that the Registrant shall have
received, before providing any such payment or reimbursement, (i)&nbsp;a written affirmation by the director or officer of his or her good faith belief that he or she has met the standard of conduct necessary for indemnification by us as authorized
by Maryland law and our bylaws and (ii)&nbsp;a written undertaking by or on his or her behalf to repay the amount paid or reimbursed by us if it shall ultimately be determined that the standard of conduct was not met. The Registrant&#146;s Articles
of Incorporation and Bylaws also permit the Registrant&#146;s Board of Directors to provide indemnification, payment or reimbursement of expenses to any of our employees or agents in such capacity. The Registrant&#146;s Articles of Incorporation
also provide that no amendment thereto may limit or eliminate this limitation of liability with respect to events occurring prior to the effective date of such amendment. </P>
