(the "Common Stock") were purchased on August 1, 2006. In fact, one-half of that number, or 6,150 shares of Common Stock, were purchased on August 1, 2006, and the other 6,150 shares of Common Stock were purchased by Hearst-Argyle Television, Inc., which uses the same broker. Accordingly, for each transaction in this Amendment, the number of shares acquired, as set forth in the column "Amount" under "Securities Acquired" of Item 4, has been reduced by one-half, and the "Amount of Securities Beneficially Owned Following Reported Transaction(s)," as set forth in each line of Item 5, has been adjusted to reflect the accurate numbers. /s/ Ronald J.
