Explanation of Responses:
1. The Edward W. Scripps Trust (the "Trust"), of which the reporting person [is/was] a Trustee and a residuary beneficiary, terminated on October 18, 2012. On March 14, 2013, the Trust distributed the reported Common Voting Shares and Class A Common Shares of the Issuer to the reporting person.
Remarks:
The reporting person may be deemed to have shared voting power (due solely to the convertibility of Common Voting Shares of the Company into Class A Common Shares on a share-for-share basis) with respect to more than 10% of the Class A Common Shares of the Company as a result of the voting provisions of the Scripps Family Agreement dated October 15, 1992, as amended, to which the reporting person is a party. The Class A Common Shares beneficially owned by the reporting person (and those held by other Signatories to the Scripps Family Agreement) are not subject to voting or any other provisions of that agreement. Along with other parties to the Scripps Family Agreement, the reporting person filed a Schedule 13D with the Commission on January 24, 2013, as amended on March 18, 2013.
