With respect to the Call Shares identified in sub-clauses (ii) and (iii) of this footnote 1, pursuant to the Call Agreement, the obligation of the Paxson Stockholders to deliver the Call Shares to the Purchaser is conditioned on the completion of the Offer and other material conditions, including FCC approval of the purchase of the Call Shares by the Purchaser and other conditions contained in the Call Agreement. Accordingly, neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any of the Reporting Persons that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Call Shares for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and any such beneficial ownership thereof is expressly disclaimed.

The aggregate number of Shares reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons excludes the following 470,227,426 Shares, which represent the maximum number of Shares that could be issued to the Purchaser in the Exchange Offer or the Contingent Exchange, as applicable: (a) 224,719,101 Shares that would be issued to the Purchaser upon conversion of $200,000,000 aggregate stated liquidation preference of the Company’s Series E-2 Convertible Preferred Stock that, among other securities, would be issued to the Purchaser in exchange for the Company’s Series F Non-Convertible Preferred Stock beneficially owned by the Purchaser, (b) 127,446,252 Shares that would be issued to the Purchaser upon conversion of $95,584,689 aggregate stated liquidation preference or principal amount, as applicable, of the Company’s preferred stock or the Company’s Series B Convertible Subordinated Debt that would be issued to the Purchaser in the Contingent Exchange or in respect of securities received by the Purchaser in the Contingent Exchange; (c) 13,333,333 Shares that would be issued upon conversion of $10 million in principal amount of the Company’s Series B Convertible Subordinated Debt that would be transferred by NBC Palm Beach I to the Purchaser if the Contingent Exchange occurs; (d) 20,000,000 Shares that would be issued upon conversion of $15 million of the Company’s Series B Convertible Subordinated Debt to be issued to the Purchaser to fund the Company’s expenses; and (e) 84,728,740 Shares that would be issued upon conversion of $76,403,430 in principal amount or aggregate stated liquidation preference, as applicable, of the Company’s Series B Convertible Subordinated Debt and the Company’s preferred stock that would be issued to the Purchaser in the Exchange Offer. The Reporting Persons do not beneficially own any of the Shares identified in sub-clauses (a) through (e) of this footnote 1, and the issuance to the Purchaser of the securities underlying those Shares is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions to the Exchange Offer and other material contingencies, including the number of shares of Senior Preferred Stock tendered (with related consents) in the Exchange Offer and the occurrence of the Exchange Offer or the Contingent Exchange, as applicable. Accordingly, neither the filing of this Schedule 13D nor any of its contents shall be deemed to constitute an admission by any of the Reporting Persons that it is the beneficial owner of any of the Shares identified in sub-clauses (a) through (e) of this footnote 1 for purposes of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act or for any other purpose, and any such beneficial ownership thereof is expressly disclaimed.

If the Reporting Persons and the NBCU Entities were deemed to be a group by virtue of the transactions described in Section 11 —“Terms of the Master Transaction Agreement and Other Material Agreements” of the Offer to Purchase, the Reporting Persons would be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 500,064,510 Shares. However, the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of 11% Series B Preferred Stock owned by any of the NBCU Entities.

The denominator used in calculating this percentage is 307,701,197, which is the sum of (i) 65,892,265 outstanding Shares (based on information provided by the Company on June 4, 2007) and (ii) 241,808,932 Shares that would be issued upon conversion of the securities disclosed in footnote 1, items (iii) through (vi) above, of this Schedule 13D. If the Reporting Persons and the NBCU Entities were deemed to be a group by virtue of the transactions described in Section 11 —“Terms of the Master Transaction Agreement and Other Material Agreements” of the Offer to Purchase, the Reporting Persons would be deemed to beneficially own approximately 98.9% of the Shares. However, the Reporting Persons expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of the shares of 11% Series B Preferred Stock owned by any of the NBCU Entities.
