WJAR Licensee, LLC FCC Form 312 March 2015 EXHIBIT A The instant application seeks consent, nunc pro tunc, to the pro forma two-step transfer of control of WJAR Licensee, LLC, licensee of transmit only earth station E030019 (the 'Station'), from Allfinco, Inc. (“AFI”) to its immediate parent, Allbritton Communications Company (“ACCO”), and then from ACCO to its immediate parent, Allbritton Group, LLC (“AGLLC”) (collectively 'the Parties'). As the Commission is aware, the Parties recently sought and received consent to the assignment of license of E030019 to WJAR Licensee, LLC. See FCC File No. SES-ASG- 20140903-00701. The ownership structure reviewed and approved in the WJAR assignment application included AFI, ACCO and AGLLC. More specifically, the approved ownership structure indicated that the sole member of the licensee, WJAR Licensee, LLC, was Harrisburg Television, Inc., which in turn is a wholly owned subsidiary of AFI, whose sole shareholder is ACCO. ACCO’s sole shareholder is AGLLC, whose sole member is Perpetual Corporation, which in turn is controlled by Sinclair Television Group, Inc. (“STG”). STG is controlled by Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (“SBG”). The assignment application was granted on December 12, 2014 and consummated on December 19, 2014. In mid-December, SBG, through various licensee subsidiaries, sought and received approval to a pro forma internal reorganization whereby AFI transferred its interest in the licensee to its immediate parent ACCO, which then contributed its interest in the licensee to, and merge into, its immediate parent AGLLC. Please see FCC File No. SES-T/C-20141216-00910, which proposed the transfer of control of KATV Licensee, LLC from AFI to ACCO to AGLLC. That application was granted on December 19, 2014 and consummated on December 31, 2014. As noted above, the WJAR assignment application was granted and consummated prior to the grant of the KATV transfer of control. As a result, there was no opportunity to amend the WJAR assignment to reflect the separately reviewed and approved SBG internal reorganization. The Parties seek to update the FCC’s records with regard to the WJAR Licensee, LLC to reflect the SBG internal reorganization as previously reviewed and approved. Accordingly, the Parties respectfully request that the instant application be granted nunc pro tunc.
