<p style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">Lee Enterprises, Incorporated (the &#8220;Company&#8221;, &#8220;we&#8221; or &#8220;our&#8221;) is furnishing this information in reliance on the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission&#8217;s (the &#8220;Commission&#8221;) issued orders under Section 36 (Release No. 34-88465) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the &#8220;Exchange Act&#8221;) granting registrants, including the Company, exemptions from specified provisions of the Exchange Act and certain rules thereunder (the "Order"), dated March 25, 2020. The Order provides registrants the ability to extend by up to 45 days the dates for filing certain reports made under the Exchange Act. The Company intends to rely on the Order with respect to the Company&#8217;s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 29, 2020 (&#8220;Form 10-Q&#8221;), which would be required to be filed on or before May 8, 2020.</p>

<p style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</p>

<p style="font-family: Arial; font-size: 10pt; margin: 0pt; text-align: justify;">The Company requires additional time to finalize its Form 10-Q primarily due to certain delays and inefficiencies caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Company completed its acquisition of the stock of The Buffalo News, Inc. and certain assets of BH Media Group, Inc. (the &#8220;Acquisition&#8221;) on March 16, 2020. The Company&#8217;s key employees are affected by travel and work restrictions as the result of COVID-19 pandemic. In particular, due to travel restrictions, both on the Company and its advisors, and remote work of the Company&#8217;s accounting team, we have experienced delays and inefficiencies in the completion of the related Acquisition business combination accounting. Additionally, the Company has experienced certain conditions related to COVID-19, such as decreased revenues, and is assessing the need for an impairment on the Company&#8217;s long-lived assets, including those acquired as part of the Acquisition. As a result, the Company is unable to complete financial statements and records that are required to permit the Company to file a timely and accurate Second Quarter Form 10-Q by the prescribed date without undue hardship and expense to the Company. The Company expects to file its Form 10-Q on or before June 22, 2020 (which is 45 days from the original filing deadline of May 8, 2020).</p>
