SUMMARY

In this prospectus, unless otherwise indicated, the words "Sinclair," "our," "us" and "we" refer to Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc., the issuer of the original notes and the exchange notes, and its subsidiaries. This summary highlights selected information from this document and the materials incorporated by reference and does not contain all of the information that is important to you. For a more complete understanding of this offering, we encourage you to read this entire prospectus and the documents to which we have referred you.

Introduction

We are a diversified television broadcasting company that owns, provides programming and operating services pursuant to local marketing agreements (LMAs) or provides sales services pursuant to outsourcing agreements to more television stations than all but one other commercial broadcasting group in the United States. We currently own, provide programming and operating services pursuant to LMAs or provide sales services to 62 television stations in 39 markets. We currently have duopolies, where we own and operate two stations, in ten markets; own and operate a station and provide programming and operating services to a second station in nine markets; own a station or stations and provide or are provided sales, operational and managerial services to another station in four markets.

We have a mid-size market focus and 47 of our 62 stations are located in television designated market areas (DMAs) that rank between the 13th and 75th largest in the United States. Our television station group is diverse in network affiliation with 20 stations affiliated with Fox, 19 with The WB, eight with ABC, six with UPN, four with NBC and three with CBS. Two stations are not affiliated with any network.

We underwent rapid and significant growth from 1991 to 2000, most of which occurred prior to the end of 1999. Since 1991, we have increased the number of television stations we own or provide services to from three television stations to 62 television stations, primarily through acquisitions. As a result of these acquisitions, we have incurred significant depreciation, amortization and impairment costs, as well as interest costs associated with financing of these acquisitions. These costs and other factors identified at page 23 have in turn led us to experience losses in 2002 and in three of the last five years and we may incur additional losses in the future. Prior to September 1999, we also owned, operated and/or programmed up to 52 radio stations in ten markets. We sold all of our interests in radio stations in 1999 and 2000.

Operating Strategy

Our operating strategy includes the following elements.

•: Programming to Attract Viewership. We seek to target our programming offerings to attract viewership, particularly in the 18 to 49 year-old age bracket.
•: Developing Local Franchises. We believe that the greatest opportunity for a sustainable and growing customer base lies within our local communities and have therefore focused on developing a strong local sales force at each of our television stations. Our goal is to continue to grow our share of local revenues.
•: Control of Operating and Programming Costs. We seek to control our operating and programming costs through a disciplined approach to managing programming acquisition and other costs, use of our national reach to negotiate with programming providers for high quality programming at favorable prices and through program-specific profit analysis, detailed budgeting, tight control over staffing levels and detailed long-term planning models.

•: Utilization of Local Marketing Agreements and Duopolies. We have sought to increase our revenues and improve our margins by providing programming services pursuant to an LMA to a second station in selected DMAs where we already own one station or by owning two stations in a single DMA and by entering into outsourcing agreements in which our stations provide or are provided various non-programming related services such as sales, operational and managerial services to or by other stations.
•: Strategic Realignment of Station Portfolio. In anticipation of the possibility of deregulation of the television ownership rules, we are re-examining our television station group portfolio with the objective of building our local franchises in the markets we deem strategic and divesting or swapping our non-strategic stations.

Recent Developments

Redemption of HYTOPS

Sinclair Capital, our subsidiary trust, had outstanding $200.0 million aggregate liquidation amount of 11⁵/8% high yield trust offered preferred securities (the "HYTOPS"), for which we were indirectly liable. The trustee for Sinclair Capital redeemed, in full, the HYTOPS, plus the associated 4.65% call premium and accrued interest thereon. The HYTOPS redemption was funded from the May 2003 offering of the original notes and the May 2003 offering of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018.

Potential Creation of Modified Holding Company Structure

We may decide to transfer substantially all of our assets and liabilities (including the exchange notes offered by this prospectus) to our wholly-owned subsidiary, Sinclair Television Group, Inc. ("STG"). STG would also become the primary obligor under our bank credit agreement and our senior subordinated notes, including the exchange notes offered by this prospectus. Upon the potential creation of the modified holding company structure, the exchange notes offered by this prospectus would become senior subordinated obligations of STG. All of our class A common stock, class B common stock, preferred stock and the convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018 would remain at Sinclair and would not become obligations or securities of STG. Following the transfer, we anticipate that STG would hold approximately 95% of our total assets as of March 31, 2003 and approximately 97% of our consolidated revenue, over 100% of our consolidated income from continuing operations before taxes and 99% of our cash flows from operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2003. We expect that we would guarantee any indebtedness transferred to STG and might guarantee any new indebtedness incurred by STG.

We believe that the assumption of notes by STG in connection with the potential creation of the modified holding company structure would not give rise to any adverse tax consequences to you. See "United States Federal Income Tax Consequences" beginning on page 74.

We cannot assure you that we will proceed with the creation of a modified holding company structure in the form described herein or at all.

We are a Maryland corporation formed in 1986. Our principal offices are located at 10706 Beaver Dam Road, Hunt Valley, MD 21030, and our telephone number is (410) 568-1500.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

On May 29, 2003, we completed the private offering of $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. As part of this offering, we entered into a registration rights agreement with the initial purchasers of the original notes in which we agreed, among other things, to deliver this prospectus to you and to complete an exchange offer for the original notes. Below is a summary of the exchange offer:

Securities Offered		Up to $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of new 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012, which have been registered under the Securities Act. The terms of the exchange notes are identical in all material respects to those of the original notes, except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the original notes do not apply to the exchange notes.
		In March 2002, we issued $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012, which we subsequently exchanged for $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of registered, publicly tradable 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. In November 2002, we issued $125.0 milion aggregate principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012 and in December 2002, we issued an additional $125.0 million aggregate principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012, which we subsequently exchanged for $250.0 million aggregate principal amount of registered, publicly tradable 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. The exchange notes are fully fungible and exchangeable with such previously registered, publicly tradable 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. Assuming all the original notes are exchanged in the exchange offer, the total amount outstanding of our registered 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012 will be $650.0 million.
The Exchange Offer		We are offering to exchange each new $1,000 principal amount of our 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012, which have been registered under the Securities Act, for $1,000 principal amount of our outstanding 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012 which have not been registered.
		In order to be exchanged, an original note must be properly tendered and accepted. All original notes that are validly tendered and not withdrawn will be exchanged. As of the date of this prospectus, there are $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of original notes outstanding. We will issue exchange notes promptly after the expiration of the exchange offer.
Expiration Date		5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003 unless we extend the expiration date.

Conditions to the Exchange Offer	The exchange offer is subject to conditions, which we may waive in our sole discretion. If we materially change the terms of the exchange offer, we will resolicit tenders of the original notes. The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of the original notes being tendered. See "The Exchange Offer—Conditions to the Exchange Offer" on page 32.
	We reserve the right in our sole and absolute discretion, subject to applicable law, at any time and from time to time,
	•	to delay the acceptance of the original notes for exchange,
	•	to terminate the exchange offer if the conditions have not been satisfied, or
	•	to extend the expiration date of the exchange offer and retain all original notes tendered pursuant to the exchange offer, subject, however, to the rights of holders of original notes to withdraw their tendered original notes.
	See "The Exchange Offer—Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments" beginning on page 27.
Withdrawal Rights	You may withdraw a tender of original notes at any time on or prior to the expiration date by delivering a written notice of withdrawal to Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly First Union National Bank) and following the procedures set forth under "The Exchange Offer—Withdrawal Rights" beginning on page 31.

	•	complete, sign and deliver a letter of transmittal and the other documents required by the letter of transmittal, to Wachovia Bank, National Association at the address given on page 32 of this prospectus; or

	Additional information for tendering original notes is provided in "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering Original Notes" beginning on page 29.
Special Procedures for Beneficial Owners	If you are the beneficial holder of original notes that are registered in the name of your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, and you wish to tender in the exchange offer, you should promptly contact the person in whose name your original notes are registered and instruct that person to tender on your behalf. See "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering Original Notes" beginning on page 29.

Guaranteed Delivery Procedures	If you wish to tender your original notes and you cannot get required documents to the exchange agent on time, you may tender your original notes by following the guaranteed delivery procedures under "The Exchange Offer—Procedures for Tendering Original Notes—Guaranteed Delivery" on page 30.
Resales	Based on interpretations by the staff of the Commission, as detailed in a series of no-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by you without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as long as:
	•	you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of business;
	•	you are not participating, do not intend to participate and have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate, in a distribution of the exchange notes; and
	•	you are not an affiliate of ours.
	If you are an affiliate of ours, are engaged in or intend to engage in or have any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes:
	(1)	you cannot rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the Commission; and
	(2)	you must comply with the registration requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.
	Each broker or dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes that were acquired as a result of market-making or other trading activities must acknowledge that it will comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any offer to resell, resale, or other transfer of the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer, including the delivery of a prospectus that contains information with respect to any selling holder required by the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. A broker-dealer may use this prospectus for an offer to resell or to otherwise transfer the original notes for a period ending 180 days after the date of this prospectus.
	Furthermore, any broker-dealer that acquired any of its original notes directly from us:
	•	may not rely on the applicable interpretation of the staff of the Commission's position contained in Exxon Capital Holdings Corp., SEC no-action letter (April 13, 1988), Morgan, Stanley & Co. Inc., SEC no-action letter (June 5, 1991) and Shearman & Sterling, SEC no-action letter (July 2, 1983); and

	•	must also be named as a selling noteholder in connection with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act relating to any resale transaction.
Exchange Agent	Wachovia Bank, National Association is serving as exchange agent in connection with the exchange offer. The address and telephone and facsimile numbers of the exchange agent are listed under "The Exchange Offer—Exchange Agent" on 32.
Use of Proceeds	We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of the exchange notes in the exchange offer. We will pay all expenses incident to the exchange offer. See "Use of Proceeds" on page 23.
United States Federal Income Tax Consequences	An exchange of original notes for exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer will not be a taxable event for U.S. federal income tax purposes. See "United States Federal Income Tax Consequences" beginning on page 74.

THE EXCHANGE NOTES

The form and terms of the exchange notes and the original notes are identical in all material respects, except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the original notes do not apply to the exchange notes. The exchange notes will evidence the same debt as the original notes and will be governed by the same indenture.

Issuer		Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc.
Exchange Notes Offered		$100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012
Maturity		March 15, 2012
Interest Rate		8% per year (calculated using a 360-day year)
Interest Payment Dates		September 15 and March 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2003
Ranking		The exchange notes will be our general unsecured obligations subordinated in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness including all our obligations under our bank credit agreement. The exchange notes will rank equal in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness including $310.0 million of our 8³/4% senior subordinated notes due 2011 and $550.0 million of our previously registered 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. As of March 31, 2003, on an as adjusted basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 offering of the original notes, the May 2003 offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, the redemption of the HYTOPS and the application of excess proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, (1) we had $547.4 million of senior indebtedness (which ranked senior to the notes), all of which was guaranteed by the guarantors on a senior basis; (2) we had $1,118.7 million of senior subordinated indebtedness including the original notes (which ranked equal to each other), all of which was guaranteed by the guarantors on a senior subordinated basis; (3) the guarantors had an additional $72.0 million of senior indebtedness which ranked senior to the guarantees of the original notes; and (4) we were able to borrow an additional $180.8 million under the bank credit agreement, as amended, which constituted senior indebtedness to which the original notes were subordinated and were guaranteed by the guarantors on a senior basis. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Subordination" beginning on page 35.
Note Guarantees		The exchange notes will be guaranteed, fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally, on a senior subordinated basis by each of the guarantors, which consist of all but one of our subsidiaries that own or operate television stations and include all of our subsidiaries that have issued guarantees under the bank credit agreement, as amended. The issuer and the guarantors represented approximately 97% of our total assets as of March 31, 2003 and approximately 97% of our revenue, over 100% of our income from continuing operations before taxes and 99% of our cash flows from operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2003.

		The guarantees will be general unsecured obligations of the guarantors, subordinated in right of payment to all such guarantors' existing and future senior indebtedness, and will rank equal in right of payment to all such guarantors' existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness and senior to all future subordinated indebtedness of such guarantors. As of March 31, 2003, on an as adjusted basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 offering of the original notes, the May 2003 offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, the redemption of the HYTOPS and the application of excess proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, the aggregate amount of senior indebtedness of the guarantors that ranked senior in right of payment to the senior subordinated guarantees would have been $619.3 million (including $547.4 million of outstanding indebtedness representing guarantees of our senior indebtedness). See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Guarantees" on page 39.
		Under the terms of the indenture, we have the right to form or acquire subsidiaries in the future that will not be required to be guarantors of the exchange notes. Under the terms of the indenture, a subsidiary that is a guarantor is not permitted to guarantee senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, as amended, or assume or become liable with respect to our indebtedness unless such subsidiary becomes a guarantor and any guarantor which no longer guarantees any of our other indebtedness may be released from its guarantee. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Restricted Payments" beginning on page 41, "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness" on page 46 and "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Unrestricted Subsidiaries" on page 49.
Optional Redemption		The exchange notes and the previously registered $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8% senior subordinated notes due 2002 will be redeemable at our option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after March 15, 2007, at the redemption prices set forth herein, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. In addition, until March 15, 2005, we can redeem up to 25% of the original principal amount of the exchange notes and the previously registered $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012 with the proceeds of public equity offerings of our company. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Optional Redemption" on page 35.

Change of Control Offer	Upon the occurrence of a change of control, each holder of the exchange notes will have the right to require us to purchase all or a portion of that holder's exchange notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase. Certain highly leveraged transactions and certain transactions with our management and our affiliates that may adversely affect holders of the exchange notes do not constitute a change of control. A change of control will result in an event of default under our bank credit agreement, as amended, which consists of $725 million of revolving credit and incremental term loan facilities and could result in the acceleration of all indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, as amended, (which constitutes senior indebtedness and guarantor senior indebtedness). We might not be able to pay you the required price for exchange notes you present to us at the time of a change of control, because:
	•	we might not have enough funds at that time; or
	•	the terms of our senior debt may prevent us from paying.
	See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants—Purchase of Exchange Notes Upon a Change of Control" beginning on page 47.
Certain Indenture Provisions	The indenture governing the exchange notes will contain covenants limiting our (and our restricted subsidiaries') ability to:
	•	incur additional debt;
	•	pay dividends or distributions on our capital stock or repurchase our capital stock;
	•	issue stock of subsidiaries;
	•	make certain investments;
	•	create liens on our assets to secure debt;
	•	enter into transactions with affiliates;
	•	merge or consolidate with another company; and
	•	transfer and sell assets.
	These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants" beginning on page 39.
Risk Factors	Investing in the exchange notes involves substantial risks. See the section entitled "Risk Factors" beginning on page 10 for a description of certain of the risks you should consider before investing in the exchange notes.

RISK FACTORS

This offering involves a high degree of risk. You should consider carefully the risks described below, together with the other information included in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus, before tendering original notes for exchange. If any of the following risks actually occur, our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects could be materially adversely affected, which in turn could adversely affect our ability to repay the exchange notes.

Risks Related to the Notes

If you fail to exchange your original notes for exchange notes, they will continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions and you may have difficulty selling them.

If you do not exchange your original notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer, you will continue to be subject to the restrictions on transfer of your original notes described in the legend on your original notes. The restrictions on transfer of your original notes arise because we issued the original notes under exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. In general, you may only offer or sell the original notes if they are registered under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws, or offered and sold under an exemption from these requirements. We do not intend to register the original notes under the Securities Act.

To the extent original notes are tendered and accepted in the exchange offer, a holder's ability to sell untendered original notes could be adversely affected. In addition, although the original notes have been designated for trading in the Private Offerings, Resale and Trading through Automatic Linkages ("PORTAL") market, to the extent that original notes are tendered and accepted in connection with the exchange offer, the trading market, if any, for the original notes would be adversely affected.

You may find it difficult to sell your exchange notes because there is no existing trading market for the exchange notes.

You may find it difficult to sell your exchange notes because an active trading market for the exchange notes may not develop. The exchange notes are being offered to the holders of the original notes. The original notes were issued on May 29, 2003 primarily to a small number of institutional investors. After the exchange offer, the trading market for the remaining untendered original notes could be adversely affected.

There is no existing trading market for the exchange notes and there is currently a limited trading market for the existing registered 8% senior subordinated notes due 2012. We do not intend to apply for listing or quotation of the exchange notes on any exchange, and so we do not know the extent to which investor interest will lead to the development of a trading market or how liquid that market might be. Although the initial purchasers of the original notes have informed us that they intend to make a market in the exchange notes, they are not obligated to do so, and any market-making may be discontinued at any time without notice. As a result, the market price of the exchange notes, as well as your ability to sell the exchange notes, could be adversely affected.

Some noteholders may be subject to registration and prospectus delivery requirements after the exchange offer and could be liable for violations of the securities laws if they do not comply with those requirements.

Based on certain no-action letters issued by the staff of the Commission, we believe that you may offer for resale, resell or otherwise transfer the exchange notes without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act. However, if you are a broker-dealer or are deemed to be participating in a distribution of the exchange notes, then in some instances your exchange notes will not be freely tradable and you will remain obligated to comply with the registration

and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act to transfer your exchange notes. In these cases, if you transfer any exchange note without delivering a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act or without an exemption from registration of your exchange notes under the Securities Act, you may incur liability under the Securities Act. We do not and will not assume or indemnify you against this liability.

If you do not follow the exchange offer procedure you may not receive exchange notes, and you may have difficulty selling the original notes.

We will issue the exchange notes in exchange for your original notes only if you tender the original notes and deliver a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and other required documents before expiration of the exchange offer. You should deliver the necessary documents so they arrive before the expiration of the exchange offer. We are not required to notify you of any defects or irregularities in your tender of original notes for exchange. If your notes are not tendered properly, you will continue to hold restricted securities and the registration rights for the notes will end. This may make it more difficult for you to sell the notes.

The ability of our subsidiaries to distribute funds to us may be limited, which could make it more difficult for us to repay your notes.

We conduct our operations through our direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries. As a holding company, we own no significant assets other than our equity in our subsidiaries, and we are dependent upon the cash flow of our subsidiaries to meet our obligations. If our subsidiaries need to retain cash for operations, or because of statutory or contractual restrictions, we may not be able to make interest or principal payments when due to holders of the exchange notes or we may not be able to purchase the exchange notes upon a change of control. The exchange notes and the subsidiary guarantees effectively will be subordinated to all existing and future senior indebtedness and guarantor senior indebtedness and other liabilities and commitments of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.

You may not receive full payment on the exchange notes if our assets are insufficient to pay debt that is senior to the exchange notes.

The exchange notes rank junior to all of our senior debt and all senior debt of the guarantors. As a result, if we or a guarantor are declared bankrupt, become insolvent or are liquidated or reorganized, then any debt that ranks ahead of the exchange notes and the guarantees will be entitled to be paid in full before any payment may be made with respect to the exchange notes or under the guarantees. The exchange notes will be general unsecured obligations, and senior debt, including indebtedness under our bank credit agreement and other senior debt we may incur in the future, will be entitled to payment before the exchange notes. The exchange notes will also be effectively junior to any secured debt that we or the guarantors may have now or may incur in the future to the extent of the value of the assets securing that debt. Therefore, you may not receive all (and may not receive any) payment on the exchange notes in some circumstances even though holders of senior debt may receive all or a greater portion of the amounts due them.

The subordination provisions of the indenture will also provide that we can make no payment to you during the continuance of payment defaults on our senior debt, and payments to you may be suspended for a period of up to 179 days if a nonpayment default exists under our senior debt. See "Description of the Exchange Notes—Subordination," "Description of the Exchange Notes—Certain Covenants" and "Description of Outstanding Indebtedness" for additional information.

$72.0 million of senior indebtedness; and (4) we were able to borrow an additional $180.8 million under the bank credit agreement, as amended.

If there is a change in control of Sinclair that reduces the market value of your exchange notes, we may not have the funds necessary to repurchase your exchange notes as required by the indenture.

The indenture requires us to offer to repurchase your exchange notes at 101% of their principal amount if there is a change of control of Sinclair, but we may not have the funds necessary to do so. A change of control under the indenture governing the exchange notes would also constitute a change of control under the indentures governing each of our currently existing senior subordinated notes, and we would be required to offer to repurchase those notes at the same time. If we did not have or have access to sufficient funds to repurchase the exchange notes or any of our currently existing senior subordinated notes, then we would not be able to repurchase your notes, and the market value of your notes could go down. In fact, we expect that we would require third-party financing, but we cannot assure you that we would be able to obtain that financing on favorable terms or at all.

Our bank credit agreement also restricts our ability to repurchase the exchange notes, even when we are required to do so. In addition, a change of control will be an event of default under the bank credit agreement and could cause all of our debt to come due. We cannot assure you that we will have the financial resources to satisfy these payment obligations if triggered upon a change of control.

The guarantees may be released under certain circumstances, which could reduce the assets available to repay the exchange notes and make it less likely that we will be able to repay your notes.

If one or more of our subsidiaries is released as a guarantor of the exchange notes, the assets available to repay your notes may be reduced and it may be more difficult for us to repay your notes. If we sell, exchange or transfer the stock of a guarantor or substantially all of the assets of a guarantor to a non-affiliate, that guarantor will no longer be our subsidiary and the applicable guarantee will be released and the assets of the former guarantor will no longer be available to us for repayment of the exchange notes. Any guarantee of any of the guarantors may also be released if the guarantor no longer guarantees any of our other debt. If a guarantee is released in this way, although the former guarantor would remain our subsidiary, it would no longer have any obligation to pay any amounts due on the exchange notes or to provide us with funds for our payment obligations. In addition, our right to receive any assets of our non-guarantor subsidiaries upon their liquidation or reorganization, and therefore the rights of the noteholders to participate in those assets, will be structurally subordinated to the claims of the applicable non-guarantor subsidiary's creditors, so that the assets would not be available to repay your notes until these creditors had been satisfied.

Not all of our subsidiaries will guarantee the exchange notes, and your right to receive payments on the exchange notes will be subordinated to all of the liabilities of the non-guarantor subsidiaries.

Not all of our subsidiaries will guarantee the exchange notes, including any future subsidiaries that do not guarantee our senior indebtedness. If any of our non-guarantor subsidiaries becomes insolvent, liquidates, reorganizes, dissolves or otherwise winds up, holders of their indebtedness and their trade creditors will generally be entitled to payment on their claims from the assets of those subsidiaries before any of those assets are made available to us. Consequently, your claims in respect of the exchange notes will be effectively subordinated to all of the liabilities (including trade credit) of our non-guarantor subsidiaries.

If the guarantees of the exchange notes are held unenforceable because of fraudulent conveyance laws, the guarantors will not be required to repay your notes and it may be less likely that we will be able to repay your notes.

Fraudulent conveyance laws can be applied to prohibit the enforcement of obligations in some circumstances. If the guarantees were deemed unenforceable under these laws, you might not be repaid

amounts owed to you under the notes. The incurrence of the guarantees by the guarantors could be subject to review under U.S. federal bankruptcy law or relevant state fraudulent conveyance laws if a bankruptcy case or lawsuit is begun by or on behalf of unpaid creditors of the guarantors. Under these laws, a court could avoid the guarantee of the guarantor or subordinate the amounts owing under the guarantee to the guarantor's presently existing or future debt or take other actions detrimental to you. If a guarantee is avoided as a fraudulent conveyance or found to be unenforceable for any other reason, you will not have a claim against that guarantor and will only be a creditor of ours or any guarantor whose obligation was not set aside or found to be unenforceable. We have not separately obtained a solvency opinion in connection with this transaction.

Risks Related to Our Business

The Iraq War resulted in a decline in advertising revenues and negatively impacted our operating results. Future conflicts may have a similar effect.

The war in Iraq resulted in a reduction in advertising revenues as a result of uninterrupted news coverage and general economic uncertainty. During the first quarter 2003, we experienced $2.2 million in advertiser cancellations and preemptions. We cannot determine how long this reduction will last. The reduction has, however, resulted in lower earnings than we would have experienced without this disruption. If the United States becomes engaged in similar conflicts in the future, they may have a similar adverse impact on our results of operations.

Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our financial condition and prevent us from fulfilling our obligations under these exchange notes.

As we describe in "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2003, which is incorporated in this prospectus, we have a high level of debt (totaling $1,558.5 million) compared to stockholders' equity of $207.9 million. Our relatively high level of debt poses the following risks to you and to Sinclair, particularly in periods of declining revenues:

•: We use a significant portion of our cash flow to pay principal and interest on our outstanding debt and to pay dividends on preferred stock, limiting the amount available for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes.
•: Our lenders may not be as willing to lend additional amounts to us for future working capital needs, additional acquisitions, or other purposes.
•: The interest rate under the bank credit agreement, as amended, is a floating rate, and will increase if general interest rates increase. This will reduce the funds available to repay the exchange notes and our other debt and for operations and future business opportunities and will make us more vulnerable to the consequences of our leveraged capital structure.
•: We may be more vulnerable to adverse economic conditions than less leveraged competitors and thus less able to withstand competitive pressures.
•: If our cash flow were inadequate to make interest and principal payments, we might have to refinance our indebtedness or sell one or more of our stations to reduce debt service obligations.

Any of these events could reduce our ability to generate cash available for investment or debt repayment or to make improvements or respond to events that would enhance profitability. See "Description of Outstanding Indebtedness" for additional information.

We may be able to incur significantly more debt in the future, which will increase each of the foregoing risks related to our indebtedness.

At March 31, 2003, on an as adjusted basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 offering of the original notes, the May 2003 offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, the redemption of the HYTOPS and the application of excess proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, we had an additional $180.8 million available (subject to certain borrowing conditions) for additional borrowings under the bank credit agreement. In addition, under the terms of our debt instruments, we may be able to incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, including additional senior debt and in some cases secured debt. Provided we meet certain financial and other covenants, the terms of the indenture governing the notes do not prohibit us from incurring such additional indebtedness. If we incur additional indebtedness, the risks described above relating to having substantial debt could intensify.

Our advertising revenue can vary substantially from period to period based on many factors beyond our control. This volatility affects our operating results and may reduce our ability to repay indebtedness or reduce the market value of our securities.

We rely on sales of advertising time for substantially all of our revenues and as a result, our operating results are sensitive to the amount of advertising revenue we generate. If we generate less revenue, it may be more difficult for us to repay our indebtedness and the value of all our business may decline. Our ability to sell advertising time depends on:

•: the health of the economy in the areas where our stations are located and in the nation as a whole;
•: the popularity of our programming;
•: changes in the makeup of the population in the areas where our stations are located;
•: pricing fluctuations in local and national advertising;
•: the activities of our competitors, including increased competition from other forms of advertising-based mediums, particularly network, cable television, direct satellite television, internet and radio;
•: the decreased demand for political advertising in non-election years; and
•: other factors that may be beyond our control.

As a result of the foregoing factors, our advertising revenue has decreased significantly from levels prior to 2001 and our revenues and earnings have been, and may continue to be, adversely affected.

Promises we have made to our lenders limit our ability to take actions that could increase the value of our securities or may require us to take actions that decrease the value of our securities.

Our existing financing agreements prevent us from taking certain actions and require us to meet certain tests. These restrictions and tests may require us to conduct our business in ways that make it more difficult for us to repay our indebtedness or decrease the value of our business. These restrictions and tests include the following:

•: Restrictions on additional debt,
•: Restrictions on our ability to pledge our assets as security for our indebtedness,
•: Restrictions on payment of dividends, the repurchase of stock and other payments relating to capital stock,
•: Restrictions on some sales of assets and the use of proceeds of asset sales,

•: Restrictions on mergers and other acquisitions, satisfaction of conditions for acquisitions, and a limit on the total amount of acquisitions without consent of bank lenders,
•: Restrictions on the type of businesses we and our subsidiaries may be in,
•: Restrictions on the type and amounts of investments we and our subsidiaries may make, and
•: Financial ratio and condition tests including the ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, as adjusted (adjusted EBITDA) to total interest expense, the ratio of adjusted EBITDA to certain of our fixed expenses, and the ratio of indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA.

Future financing arrangements may contain additional restrictions and tests. All of these restrictive covenants may restrict our ability to pursue our business strategies, prevent us from taking action that could increase the value of our securities, or may require actions that decrease the value of our securities. In addition, we may fail to meet the tests and thereby default on one or more of our obligations (particularly if the economy continues to soften and thereby reduces our advertising revenues). If we default on our obligations, creditors could require immediate payment of the obligations or foreclose on collateral. If this happened, we could be forced to sell assets or take other action that would reduce significantly the value of our securities and we may not have sufficient assets or funds to pay our obligations under the exchange notes.

Key officers and directors have financial interests that are different and sometimes opposite to those of Sinclair and Sinclair may engage in transactions with these officers and directors that may benefit them to the detriment of other securityholders.

Some of our officers, directors and majority stockholders own stock or partnership interests in businesses that engage in television broadcasting, do business with us, or otherwise do business that conflicts with our interests. They may transact some business with us even when there is a conflict of interest or they may engage in business competitive to our business and those transactions may benefit the officers, directors or majority stockholders to the detriment of our other securityholders. David D. Smith, Frederick G. Smith, and J. Duncan Smith are each an officer and director of Sinclair, and Robert E. Smith is a director of Sinclair. Together, the Smiths hold shares of our common stock that control the outcome of most matters submitted to a vote of stockholders. The Smiths own a television station which is programmed pursuant to an LMA with us. The Smiths also own businesses that lease real property and tower space to us, buy advertising time from us, and engage in other transactions with us. In addition, Cunningham Broadcasting Corporation (formerly Glencairn, Ltd.) is a corporation owned by Carolyn C. Smith, the mother of the controlling stockholders and certain trusts established by Carolyn C. Smith (which own non-voting stock). Cunningham holds the licenses for certain television stations that we program under LMAs. We have an option to acquire the equity interests in Cunningham for a price based on the purchase price of Cunningham's stations. We have agreed that if we exercise the option we would either pay any liability under Cunningham's bank credit agreement or take any equity interests subject to the security interest held by the lender under that agreement. In addition, David D. Smith, our President and Chief Executive Officer, has a controlling interest in and is a member of the Board of Directors of Summa Holdings, Ltd., a company in which we hold a 17.5% equity interest and exercise significant influence over Summa by virtue of David D. Smith's board seat and our board seat. See "—Our investments in other businesses may not deliver the value we ascribe to them on our financial statements or reach our strategic objectives."

Maryland law and our financing agreements limit the extent to which our officers, directors and majority stockholders may transact business with us and pursue business opportunities that Sinclair might pursue. These limitations do not, however, prohibit all such transactions.

The Smiths exercise control over all matters submitted to a stockholder vote, and may have interests that differ from yours. They may therefore take actions that are not in the interests of other securityholders.

David D. Smith, Frederick G. Smith, J. Duncan Smith and Robert E. Smith hold shares representing almost 90% of the vote and therefore control the outcome of most matters submitted to a vote of stockholders, including, but not limited to, electing directors, adopting amendments to our certificate of incorporation and approving corporate transactions. The Smiths hold class B common stock, which generally has 10 votes per share. Our class A common stock has only one vote per share. Our other series of preferred stock generally do not have voting rights.

Circumstances may occur in which the interests of the Smiths, as the controlling equity holders, could be in conflict with the interests of the holders of the exchange notes and the Smiths would have the ability to cause Sinclair to take actions in their interest. In addition, the Smiths could pursue acquisitions, divestitures or other transactions that, in their judgment, could enhance their equity investment, even though such transactions might involve risks to the holders of the exchange notes. See "Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners" in our Form 10-K, as amended, which is incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

Certain features of our capital structure that discourage others from attempting to acquire Sinclair may prevent our securityholders from receiving a premium on their securities or result in a lower price for our securities.

The control the Smiths have over stockholder votes may discourage other companies from trying to acquire us. In addition, our board of directors can issue additional shares of preferred stock with rights that might further discourage other companies from trying to acquire us. Anyone trying to acquire us would likely offer to pay more for shares of class A common stock than the amount those shares were trading for in market trades at the time of the offer. If the voting rights of the Smiths or the right to issue preferred stock discourage such takeover attempts, stockholders may be denied the opportunity to receive such a premium. The general level of prices for class A common stock might also be lower than it would be if these deterrents to takeovers did not exist.

We must purchase television programming in advance and may therefore incur programming costs that we cannot cover with revenue from the programs. If this happens, we could experience losses that make our securities less valuable.

One of our most significant costs is television programming and our ability to generate revenue to cover this cost may affect the value of our securities. If a particular program is not popular in relation to its costs, we may not be able to sell enough advertising time to cover the costs of the program. Since we generally purchase programming content from others rather than produce it ourselves, we also have little control over the costs of programming. We usually must purchase programming several years in advance, and may have to commit to purchase more than one year's worth of programming. Finally, we may replace programs that are doing poorly before we have recaptured any significant portion of the costs we incurred, or accounted fully for the costs on our books for financial reporting purposes. Any of these factors could reduce our revenues or otherwise cause our costs to escalate relative to revenues. These factors are exacerbated during a weak advertising market. Additionally, our business is subject to the popularity of the programs provided by the networks with which we have affiliation agreements or which provide us programming. Each of our affiliation groups experienced revenue increases in 2002, except for UPN affiliates, but this trend may not continue in the future.

We may lose a large amount of programming if a network terminates its affiliation with us, which could increase our costs and/or reduce our revenue.

Our affiliation agreements with three ABC stations have expired. In general, we continue to operate these stations as ABC affiliates and we do not believe ABC has any current plans to terminate the affiliation of any of these stations although we cannot assure you that ABC will not do so.

The non-renewal or termination of one or more of these or any of our other network affiliation agreements would result in us no longer being able to carry programming of the relevant network. This loss of programming would require us to obtain replacement programming, which may involve higher costs and which may not be as attractive to our target audiences, resulting in reduced revenues.

Competition from other broadcasters and changes in technology may cause a reduction in our advertising revenues and/or an increase in our operating costs.

The television industry is highly competitive and this competition can draw viewers and advertisers from our stations, which reduces our revenue, or require us to pay more for programming, which increases our costs. We face intense competition from the following:

New technology and the subdivision of markets. Cable providers and direct broadcast satellite companies are developing new techniques that allow them to transmit more channels on their existing equipment to highly targeted audiences, reducing the cost of creating channels and potentially leading to the division of the television industry into ever more specialized niche markets. Competitors who target programming to such sharply defined markets may gain an advantage over us for television advertising revenues. Lowering the cost of creating channels may also encourage new competitors to enter our markets and compete with us for advertising revenue. In addition, emerging technologies that will allow viewers to digitally record and play back television programming may decrease viewership of commercials and, as a result, lower our advertising revenues.

In-market competition. We also face more conventional competition from rivals that may be larger and have greater resources than we have. These include:

•: other local free over-the-air broadcast stations, and
•: other media, such as newspapers, periodicals and cable systems.

Deregulation. The FCC recently modified its broadcast ownership rules. The new rules, among other things: increase the number of stations a group may own nationally by increasing the audience reach cap from 35% to 45%; increase the number of stations an entity can own or control in many local markets; repeal the newspaper-broadcast limits and replace them with new general cross media limits which would permit owners of daily newspapers to own one or more television stations in the same market as the newspaper's city of publication in many markets; and repeal the radio-television cross ownership rules and replace them with new general cross media limits. While the new rules have yet to take effect, and currently Congress is examining these rules, if they become law broadcast station owners would be permitted to own more television stations, both locally and nationally, potentially affecting our competitive position. In addition, the FCC has reallocated a portion of the spectrum for new services including fixed and mobile wireless services and digital broadcast services. As a result of all these changes, new companies are able to enter our markets and compete with us.

The phased introduction of digital television will increase our costs, due to increased equipment and operational costs, and could have a variety of other adverse effects on our business.

The FCC has adopted rules for implementing digital (including high definition) television ("DTV") service in the United States. Under the rules, our stations are required to begin DTV operations over a transition period. In addition, we expect that the FCC will reclaim our non-digital channels at the end

of the transition period. We believe that the transition to DTV may have the following effects on us, which could increase our costs or reduce our revenue.

Conversion and programming costs. We expect to incur approximately $150.0 million in costs, of which we have incurred $106.5 million through March 31, 2003, to convert our stations from the current analog format to digital format. However, our costs may be higher than this estimate. We expect to continue to incur significant costs to convert our stations to digital format. In addition, we may incur additional costs to obtain programming for the additional channels made available by digital technology and higher utilities costs as a result of converting to digital operations. Increased revenues from the additional channels may not make up for the conversion cost and additional programming expenses.

Possible Sanctions. The FCC has adopted a series of graduated sanctions to be imposed upon licensees who do not meet the FCC's DTV build-out schedule. Some of our stations could face monetary fines and possible loss of any digital construction permits if they cannot comply with the DTV build-out schedule.

Reclamation of analog channels. Congress directed the FCC to auction analog channels when the current holders convert to digital transmission. In addition, the FCC has reallocated a portion of the spectrum band to permit both wireless services and to allow new broadcast operations. If the channels are owned or programmed by our competitors, they may exert increased competitive pressure on our operations.

Signal quality issues. Our signal quality under digital transmission may be lower relative to our competitors, and we may lose viewers and thereby lose revenue, or be forced to rely on cable television or other alternative means of transmission with higher costs to deliver our digital signals to all of the viewers we are able to reach with our current analog signals.

Digital must carry. If the FCC does not require cable companies to carry both analog and digital signals of stations during the digital transition period, cable customers in our broadcast markets may not receive our digital signal, which could negatively impact our stations by reducing revenue.

Subscription fees. The FCC has determined to assess a fee in the amount of 5% of gross revenues on digital television subscription services. If we provide subscription services and are unable to pass this cost through to our subscribers, this fee will reduce our earnings from any digital television subscription services we implement in the future.

Given this climate of market uncertainty and regulatory change, we cannot be sure what impact the FCC's actions might have on our plans and results in the area of digital television. See "Business—Federal Regulation of Television Broadcasting" included in our Form 10-K, as amended, incorporated herein by reference for additional information.

Federal regulation of the broadcasting industry limits our operating flexibility, which may affect our ability to generate revenue or reduce our costs.

The FCC regulates our business, just as it does all other companies in the broadcasting industry. We must ask the FCC's approval whenever we need a new license, seek to renew, or assign, or modify a license, purchase a new station, or transfer the control of one of our subsidiaries that holds a license. Our FCC licenses and those of the stations we program pursuant to LMAs are critical to our operations; we cannot operate without them. We cannot be certain that the FCC will renew these

licenses in the future, or approve new acquisitions. If licenses were not renewed or acquisitions approved, we may lose revenue that we otherwise could have earned.

In addition, Congress and the FCC currently have under consideration, and may in the future adopt, new laws, regulations and policies regarding a wide variety of matters (including technological changes) that could, directly or indirectly, materially and adversely affect the operation and ownership of our broadcast properties. New federal legislation may limit our ability to conduct our business in ways that we believe would be advantageous and may thereby negatively affect our operating results.

The FCC's multiple ownership rules limit our ability to operate multiple television stations and may result in a reduction in our revenue or prevent us from reducing costs. The FCC recently announced changes to the multiple ownership rules that may threaten our existing strategic approach to certain television markets. These rules remain susceptible to changes as a result of either Petitions for Reconsideration or judicial appeals that may be brought by interested parties. In addition, the rules are currently the subject of certain legislation in the United States Congress which may result in changes to these new rules. We are unable to predict at this time the likelihood of success of any such actions and the impact that this might have on us and our operations.

General limitations.

The recently enacted FCC ownership rules limit us from having "attributable interests" in television stations that reach more than 45% (using a calculation method specified by the FCC) of all television households in the U.S. We reach approximately 24% of U.S. television households on an actual basis or, under the FCC's current method for calculating this limit, approximately 14%. The FCC has announced that they are continuing to study the continued relevancy and efficacy of the calculation method that reduces our actual reach of 24% to a deemed reach of 14%. If the FCC changes the calculation method, it is possible that in the future our ability to expand could be limited and this may prevent us from engaging in acquisitions that could increase our revenue or our operating margins.

Changes in the rules on television ownership and local marketing agreements.

Certain of our stations have entered into what have commonly been referred to as local marketing agreements or LMAs. One typical type of LMA is a programming agreement between two separately owned television stations serving the same market, whereby the licensee of one station programs substantial portions of the broadcast day and sells advertising time during such program segments on the other licensee's station subject to ultimate editorial and other controls being exercised by the latter licensee. We believe these arrangements allow us to increase operating margins and enhance profitability.

Although the duopoly rules recently enacted by the FCC allow us to continue to program most of the stations that we currently LMA or to buy these stations, in the absence of a waiver, the new rules would require us to terminate or modify three of our LMAs in markets where both the station we own and the station we LMA are ranked among the top four stations in their particular DMA. The FCC's new ownership rules include specific provisions permitting waivers of this "top four restriction" and we are currently studying the applicability of these rules to our markets.

If we are required to terminate or modify our LMAs, our business could be affected in the following ways:

Losses on investments. As part of our LMA arrangements, we own the non-license assets used by the stations with which we have LMAs. If LMA arrangements are no longer permitted, we would be forced to sell these assets, or find another use for them. If LMAs are prohibited, the market for such assets may not be as good as

when we purchased them and we would need to sell the assets to the owner or a purchaser of the related license assets. Therefore, we cannot be certain we will recoup our investments.

Termination penalties. If the FCC requires us to modify or terminate existing LMAs before the terms of the LMAs expire, or under certain circumstances, if we elect not to extend the term of the LMAs, we may be forced to pay termination penalties under the terms of some of our LMAs. Any such termination penalty could be material.

Failure of owner/licensee to exercise control.

The FCC requires the owner/licensee of a station to maintain independent control over the programming and operations of the station. As a result, the owners/licensees of the stations with which we have LMAs or outsourcing agreements can exert their control in ways that may be counter to our interests, including the right to preempt or terminate programming in certain instances.

These preemption and termination rights cause us some uncertainty that we will be able to air all of the programming that we have purchased, and therefore uncertainty about the advertising revenues we will receive from such programming.

In addition, if the FCC determines that the owner/licensee is not exercising sufficient control, it may penalize the owner/licensee by a fine, revocation of the license for the station or a denial of the renewal of the license.

Any one of these scenarios might result in a reduction of our cash flow and an increase in our operating costs or margins, especially the revocation of or denial of renewal of a license. In addition, penalties might also affect our qualifications to hold FCC licenses, and thus place those licenses at risk.

Under the new rules, radio station joint sales agreements or JSAs (agreements which typically authorize a station to sell advertising time on another station in return for a fee) are attributable and must be terminated within two years of the effective date of the rules unless the station providing the services can otherwise own the station under the new multiple ownership rules. While television JSAs are currently not attributable, the FCC has announced that it intends to issue a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to seek comment on whether or not to make television JSAs attributable as well. Certain of our stations have entered into Outsourcing Agreements pursuant to which either one of our stations provides certain non-programming services (including sales services) to another station in the market or another in-market station provides such services to one of our stations. If these agreements are deemed to be similar to JSAs, and if television JSAs become attributable, we could be required to terminate our existing Outsourcing Agreements within a specified time period after the effective date of the FCC's decision.

We have lost money in three of the last five years, and may continue to do so indefinitely, which may impair our ability to pay our obligations under the exchange notes or to repurchase the exchange notes.

We have suffered net losses in three of the last five years. In 1999 and 2000, we reported earnings, but this was largely due to a gain on the sale of our radio stations. Our losses are due to a variety of cash and non-cash expenses which may or may not recur. Our net losses may therefore continue indefinitely and as a result, we may not have sufficient funds to pay our obligations under the exchange notes or to repurchase the exchange notes. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in our Form 10-K, as amended, incorporated herein by reference.

Our investments in other businesses may not deliver the value we ascribe to them on our financial statements or reach our strategic objectives.

Our strategy includes investing in and working with other businesses, including technology and internet-related businesses. In pursuit of this strategy, we made several investments in technology and internet-related businesses in 1999 and 2000. The stock prices of publicly-traded technology and internet-related companies generally declined dramatically since 2000, and specific businesses we have invested in have experienced substantial impairment of their value. As a result, we have written-off a substantial portion of our investments in these businesses. These write-offs include all of our $10.1 million investment in Acrodyne Communications, Inc., a manufacturer of television transmitters and other broadcast equipment. We cannot assure you that these investments will be worth the amount we currently ascribe to them on our financial statements, or that we will be able to develop services that are profitable for Sinclair or the businesses in which we have invested. If the businesses in which we have invested fail to succeed, we may lose as much as all of our remaining investment in the businesses. We may also spend additional funds and devote additional resources to these businesses (we recently invested an additional $1.0 million in Acrodyne), and these additional investments may also be lost.

In addition, we recently invested $20.0 million, representing approximately a 17.5% equity interest, in Summa Holdings, Ltd., a holding company that owns automobile dealerships, retail tire franchises and a leasing company, in which David D. Smith has a controlling interest. In contemplating the investment, we considered the historic and potential returns on equity. Additionally, under the terms of the agreement, Summa is committed to maintaining a certain amount of advertising with our stations. We will not be involved in the day-to-day management or operations of Summa, however, we will hold one board seat. There can be no assurances as to the future value of our investment in Summa. We may also invest additional funds and devote additional resources to Summa and these additional investments may also be lost.

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any proceeds from the exchange offer. In consideration for issuing the exchange notes, we will receive in exchange the original notes of like principal amount, the terms of which are identical in all material respects to the exchange notes, except that the transfer restrictions and registration rights relating to the original notes do not apply to the exchange notes. The original notes surrendered in exchange for the exchange notes will be retired and canceled and cannot be reissued. Accordingly, issuance of the exchange notes will not result in any increase in our indebtedness. We have agreed to bear the expenses of the exchange offer. No underwriter is being used in connection with the exchange offer.

On May 29, 2003, we issued and sold the original notes. We used the net proceeds from the offering, which were approximately $104.1 million, along with the net proceeds from the offering of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, which were approximately $145.4 million, towards redemption of $200.0 million aggregate liquidation amount of outstanding 11⁵/8% high yield trust offered preferred securities (the "HYTOPS") of our subsidiary trust, Sinclair Capital, and to pay the related redemption premium and accrued interest. Of the remaining proceeds, we used approximately $26.0 million for general corporate purposes and approximately $12.0 to repay debt outstanding under our bank credit agreement.

RATIO OF EARNINGS TO FIXED CHARGES

The table below sets forth the ratio of earnings to fixed charges of Sinclair and its consolidated subsidiaries on a historical basis for each of the periods indicated:

Three Months Ended March 31,				Fiscal Year Ended December 31,
2003		2002		2002		2001		2000		1999		1998
(a)		(a)		(a)		(a)		(a)		(a)		(a)

(a): "Net broadcast revenues" are defined as broadcast revenues net of agency commissions.
(b): Depreciation and amortization includes depreciation and amortization of property and equipment and amortization of definite-lived intangible assets and other assets.
(c): Depreciation and amortization and interest expense amounts differ from prior presentations for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000, 1999, and 1998. Previously the amortized costs associated with the issuance of indebtedness had been classified as depreciation and amortization instead of being classified as interest expense. Accordingly, we reclassified $3,313, $3,288 and $2,752 as interest expense for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2000, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
(d): Subsidiary trust minority interest expense represents the distributions on the HYTOPS and amortization of deferred finance costs. See footnote (f).
(e): "Total debt" is defined as long-term debt, net of unamortized discount, and capital lease obligations, including current portion thereof. Total debt does not include the HYTOPS or our preferred stock.
(f): HYTOPS represents our Obligated Mandatorily Redeemable Security of Subsidiary Trust Holding Solely KDSM Senior Debentures representing $200 million aggregate liquidation value.

THE EXCHANGE OFFER

Purpose and Effect

In connection with the sale of the original notes, we entered into registration rights agreements with the initial purchasers of the original notes. In those agreements, we agreed, among other things,

•: to use our best efforts to file under the Securities Act a registration statement relating to an offer to exchange the original notes for exchange notes with terms identical in all material respects (except as described below) to the terms of the original notes and
•: to use our best efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective.

The exchange offer is being made to satisfy our contractual obligations under the registration rights agreement.

The original notes provide, among other things, that,

(1): if an exchange offer registration statement is not filed by September 26, 2003, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the 90 days starting on September 27, 2003, and increasing by an additional .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period;
(2): if an exchange offer registration statement is not declared effective by November 25, 2003, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the 90 days starting November 29, 2003, and increasing by .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; and
(3): if we have not exchanged exchange notes for all original notes validly tendered prior to December 25, 2003, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the 90 days starting December 26, 2003, and increasing by .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period.

The form and terms of the exchange notes are identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the original notes except that the exchange notes (1) have been registered under the Securities Act and therefore will not be subject to certain restrictions on transfer applicable to the original notes and (2) will not have registration rights or provide for any increase in the interest rate related to the obligation to register. See "Description of the Exchange Notes" and "Description of the Original Notes" for more information on the terms of the respective notes and the differences between them.

We are not making the exchange offer to, and will not accept tenders for exchange from, holders of original notes in any jurisdiction in which an exchange offer or the acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdiction.

Unless the context requires otherwise, the term "holder" with respect to the exchange offer means any person in whose name the original notes are registered on our books or any other person who has obtained a properly completed bond power from the registered holder, or any person whose original notes are held of record by The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") who desires to deliver such original notes by book-entry transfer at DTC.

Terms of the Exchange

Upon the terms and conditions described in this prospectus and in the accompanying letter of transmittal, which together constitute the exchange offer, we hereby offer to exchange up to $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of exchange notes for a like aggregate principal amount of original notes properly tendered on or prior to the expiration date (as defined below) and not properly withdrawn in accordance with the procedures described below. We will issue, promptly after the

expiration date, an aggregate principal amount of up to $100,000,000 of exchange notes in exchange for a like principal amount of outstanding original notes tendered and accepted in connection with the exchange offer. The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum principal amount of original notes being tendered. As of the date of this prospectus $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the original notes is outstanding. This prospectus, together with the letter of transmittal, is first being sent on or about the date on the cover page of the prospectus to all holders of original notes known to us. Original notes tendered in the exchange offer must be in denominations of principal amount of $1,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000.

Holders of original notes do not have any appraisal or dissenters' rights in connection with the exchange offer. Original notes that are not tendered, or are tendered but not accepted, in connection with the exchange offer will remain outstanding and be entitled to the benefits of the indenture, but will not be entitled to any further registration rights under the registration rights agreement, except under limited circumstances. See "Risk Factors—If you fail to exchange your original notes for exchange notes, they will continue to be subject to the existing transfer restrictions and you may have difficulty selling them" and "Description of the Original Notes." If any tendered original notes are not accepted for exchange because of an invalid tender, the occurrence of certain other events set forth herein or otherwise, certificates for any such unaccepted original notes will be returned, without expense, to the tendering holder thereof promptly after the expiration date, or, if such unaccepted original notes are uncertificated, such securities will be returned, without expense to the tendering holder thereof promptly after the expiration date via book entry transfer.

Holders who tender original notes in connection with the exchange offer will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchange of original notes in connection with the exchange offer. The Company will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes described below, in connection with the exchange offer. See "—Fees and Expenses."

The Board of Directors of Sinclair does not make any recommendation to holders of original notes as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering all or any portion of their original notes pursuant to the exchange offer. In addition, no one has been authorized to make any such recommendation. Holders of original notes must make their own decision whether to tender pursuant to the exchange offer and, if so, the aggregate amount of original notes to tender after reading this prospectus and the letter of transmittal and consulting with their advisers, if any, based on their own financial position and requirements.

Expiration Date; Extensions; Amendments

The term "expiration date" means 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003 unless we extend the exchange offer (in which case the term "expiration date" shall mean the latest date and time to which the exchange offer is extended). In any event, we will hold the exchange offer open for at least twenty business days. We expressly reserve the right in our sole and absolute discretion, subject to applicable law, at any time and from time to time,

(1): to delay the acceptance of the original notes for exchange,
(2): to terminate the exchange offer (whether or not any original notes have theretofore been accepted for exchange) if we determine, in our reasonable discretion, that any of the events or conditions referred to under "—Conditions to the Exchange Offer" have occurred or exist or have not been satisfied,
(3): to extend the expiration date of the exchange offer and retain all original notes tendered pursuant to the exchange offer, subject, however, to the right of holders of original notes to withdraw their tendered original notes as described under "—Withdrawal Rights," and

(4): to waive any condition or otherwise amend the terms of the exchange offer in any respect.

If the exchange offer is amended in a manner that we determine constitutes a material change, or if we waive a material condition of the exchange offer, we will promptly disclose such amendment by means of a prospectus supplement that will be distributed to the registered holders of the original notes, and we will extend the exchange offer to the extent required by Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act.

Any such delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment will be followed promptly by oral or written notice thereof to the exchange agent and by making a public announcement thereof, and such announcement in the case of an extension will be made no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. Without limiting the manner in which we may choose to make any public announcement and subject to applicable law, we shall have no obligation to publish, advertise or otherwise communicate any such public announcement other than by issuing a release to an appropriate news agency.

Acceptance or Exchange and Issuance of Exchange Notes

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer, we will exchange, and will issue to the exchange agent, exchange notes for original notes validly tendered and not withdrawn (pursuant to the withdrawal rights described under "—Withdrawal Rights") promptly after the expiration date. In all cases, delivery of exchange notes in exchange for original notes tendered and accepted for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer will be made only after timely receipt by the exchange agent of

(1): original notes or a book-entry confirmation of a book-entry transfer of original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC,
(2): the letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees, and
(3): any other documents required by the letter of transmittal.

The term "book-entry confirmation" means a timely confirmation of a book-entry transfer of original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC.

Subject to the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, we will be deemed to have accepted for exchange, and thereby exchanged, original notes validly tendered and not withdrawn when, as and if we give oral or written notice to the exchange agent of our acceptance of such original notes for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer. The exchange agent will act as our agent for the purpose of receiving tenders of original notes, letters of transmittal and related documents, and as agent for tendering holders for the purpose of receiving original notes, letters of transmittal and related documents and transmitting exchange notes to validly tendering holders. Such exchange will be made promptly after the expiration date. If for any reason whatsoever, acceptance for exchange or the exchange of any original notes tendered pursuant to the exchange offer is delayed (whether before or after our acceptance for exchange of original notes) or we extend the exchange offer or are unable to accept for exchange or exchange original notes tendered pursuant to the exchange offer, then, without prejudice to our rights set forth herein, the exchange agent may, nevertheless, on our behalf and subject to Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, retain tendered original notes and such original notes may not be withdrawn except to the extent tendering holders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described under "—Withdrawal Rights."

Pursuant to the letter of transmittal, a holder of original notes will warrant and agree in the letter of transmittal that it has full power and authority to tender, exchange, sell, assign and transfer original notes, that we will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to the tendered original notes, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances, and that the original notes tendered

for exchange are not subject to any adverse claims or proxies. The holder also will warrant and agree that it will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by us or the exchange agent to be necessary or desirable to complete the exchange, sale, assignment, and transfer of the original notes tendered pursuant to the exchange offer.

Procedures for Tendering Original Notes

Valid Tender. Except as set forth below, in order for original notes to be validly tendered pursuant to the exchange offer, the exchange agent must receive a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents at its address set forth under "—Exchange Agent," and either (1) the exchange agent must receive tendered original notes, or (2) such original notes must be tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer set forth below and the exchange agent must receive a book-entry confirmation, in each case on or prior to the expiration date, or (3) the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth below must be complied with.

If less than all of the original notes delivered are tendered for exchange, a tendering holder should fill in the amount of original notes being tendered in the appropriate box on the letter of transmittal. The entire amount of original notes delivered to the exchange agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

The method of delivery of certificates, the letter of transmittal and all other required documents, is at the option and sole risk of the tendering holder, and delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by the exchange agent. If delivery is by mail, registered mail, return receipt requested, properly insured, or an overnight delivery service is recommended. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery.

Book Entry Transfer. The exchange agent will establish an account with respect to the original notes at DTC for purposes of the exchange offer within two business days after the date of this prospectus. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC's book-entry transfer facility system may make a book-entry delivery of the original notes by causing DTC to transfer such original notes into the exchange agent's account at DTC in accordance with DTC's procedures for transfers. However, although delivery of original notes may be effected through book-entry transfer into the exchange agent's account at DTC, the letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, must in any case be delivered to and received by the exchange agent at its address set forth under "—Exchange Agent" on or prior to the expiration date, or the guaranteed delivery procedure set forth below must be complied with.

Delivery of documents to DTC in accordance with DTC's procedures does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.

Signature Guarantees. Certificates for the original notes need not be endorsed and signature guarantees on the letter of transmittal are unnecessary unless (a) a certificate for the original notes is registered in a name other than that of the person surrendering the certificate or (b) such registered holder completes the box entitled "Special Issuance Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions" in the letter of transmittal. In the case of (a) or (b) above, such certificates for original notes must be duly endorsed or accompanied by a properly executed bond power, with the endorsement or signature on the bond power and on the letter of transmittal guaranteed by a firm or other entity identified in Rule 17Ad-15 under the Exchange Act as an "eligible guarantor institution," including (as such terms are defined therein): (i) a bank; (ii) a broker, dealer, municipal securities broker or dealer or government securities broker or dealer; (iii) a credit union; (iv) a national securities exchange, registered securities association or clearing agency; or (v) a savings association that is a participant in a Securities Transfer Association (an "eligible institution"), unless surrendered on behalf of such eligible institution. See Instruction 1 to the letter of transmittal.

Guaranteed Delivery. If a holder desires to tender original notes pursuant to the exchange offer and the certificates for such original notes are not immediately available or time will not permit all required documents to reach the exchange agent on or before the expiration date, or the procedures for book-entry transfer cannot be completed on a timely basis, such original notes may nevertheless be tendered, provided that all of the following guaranteed delivery procedures are complied with:

(1): such tenders are made by or through an eligible institution;
(2): a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, substantially in the form accompanying the letter of transmittal is received by the exchange agent, as provided below, on or prior to the expiration date; and
(3): the certificates (or a book-entry confirmation) representing all tendered original notes, in proper form for transfer, together with a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, are received by the exchange agent within three Nasdaq Stock Market trading days after the date of execution of such notice of guaranteed delivery.

The notice of guaranteed delivery may be delivered by hand, or transmitted by facsimile or mail to the exchange agent and must include a guarantee by an eligible institution in the form set forth in such notice.

Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, the delivery of exchange notes in exchange for original notes tendered and accepted for exchange pursuant to the exchange offer will in all cases be made only after timely receipt by the exchange agent of original notes, or of a book-entry confirmation with respect to such original notes, and a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal (or facsimile thereof), together with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal. Accordingly, the delivery of exchange notes might not be made to all tendering holders at the same time, and will depend upon when original notes, book-entry confirmations with respect to original notes and other required documents are received by the exchange agent.

Our acceptance of the tender of original notes tendered pursuant to any of the procedures described above will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering holder and us upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the exchange offer.

Determination of Validity. All questions as to the form of documents, validity, eligibility (including time of receipt) and acceptance for exchange of any tendered original notes will be determined by us, in our sole discretion, which determination shall be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the absolute right, in our sole and absolute discretion, to reject any and all tenders determined by us not to be in proper form or the acceptance of which, or exchange for, may, in the view of our counsel, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right, subject to applicable law, to waive any of the conditions of the exchange offer as set forth under "—Conditions to the Exchange Offer" or any condition or irregularity in any tender of original notes of any particular holder whether or not similar conditions or irregularities are waived in the case of other holders.

Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer (including the letter of transmittal and the instructions thereto) will be final and binding. No tender of original notes will be deemed to have been validly made until all irregularities with respect to such tender have been cured or waived. Neither we, our affiliates or assigns, the exchange agent nor any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity in any tender of original notes. Moreover, neither we, our affiliates or assigns, the exchange agent nor any other person will incur any liability for failing to give notification of any defect or irregularity.

If any letter of transmittal, endorsement, bond power, power of attorney, or any other document required by the letter of transmittal is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should so indicate when signing, and unless waived by us, proper evidence satisfactory to us, in our sole discretion, of such person's authority to so act must be submitted.

A beneficial owner of original notes that are held by or registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee or custodian is urged to contact such entity promptly if such beneficial holder wishes to participate in the exchange offer.

Resales of Exchange Notes

We are making the exchange offer in reliance on the position of the staff of the Commission in interpretive letters addressed to third parties in other transactions. However, we have not sought our own interpretive letter and there can be no assurance that the staff of the Commission would make a similar determination with respect to the exchange offer as it has in past interpretive letters to third parties. Based on these interpretations by the staff of the Commission, we believe that the exchange notes issued in the exchange offer for original notes may be offered for resale, resold or otherwise transferred by holders of the original notes without compliance with the registration and prospectus delivery provisions of the Securities Act, if:

•: the exchange notes are acquired in the ordinary course of the holders' business;
•: the holders have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution of the exchange notes; and
•: the holders are not "affiliates" of ours within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act.

Any holder who is an affiliate of ours or who intends to participate in the exchange offer for the purpose of distributing exchange notes or any broker-dealer who purchased original notes directly from us to resell pursuant to Rule 144A or any other available exemption under the Securities Act:

•: cannot rely on the applicable interpretations of the staff of the Commission mentioned above;
•: will not be permitted or entitled to tender the original notes in the exchange offer; and
•: must comply with the registration and prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale transaction.

A broker-dealer who holds original notes that were acquired for its own account as a result of market-making or other trading activities may be deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act and must, therefore, deliver a prospectus meeting the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of exchange notes. Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for original notes, where the original notes were acquired by a broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities must acknowledge in the letter of transmittal that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. See "Plan of Distribution."

Withdrawal Rights

Except as otherwise provided herein, tenders of original notes may be withdrawn at any time on or prior to the expiration date.

In order for a withdrawal to be effective a written, telegraphic, telex or facsimile transmission of such notice of withdrawal must be timely received by the exchange agent at its addresses set forth under "—Exchange Agent" on or prior to the expiration date. Any such notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person who tendered the original notes to be withdrawn, the aggregate

principal amount of original notes to be withdrawn, and (if certificates for such original notes have been tendered) the name of the registered holder of the original notes as set forth on the original notes, if different from that of the person who tendered such original notes. If original notes have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, then prior to the physical release of such original notes, the tendering holder must submit the serial numbers shown on the particular original notes to be withdrawn and the signature on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an eligible institution, except in the case of original notes tendered for the account of an eligible institution. If original notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer set forth in "—Procedures for Tendering Original Notes," the notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawal of original notes, in which case a notice of withdrawal will be effective if delivered to the exchange agent by written, telegraphic, telex or facsimile transmission. Withdrawals of tenders of original notes may not be rescinded. Original notes properly withdrawn will not be deemed validly tendered for purposes of the exchange offer, but may be retendered at any subsequent time on or prior to the expiration date by following any of the procedures described above under "—Procedures for Tendering Original Notes."

All questions as to the validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of such withdrawal notices will be determined by the Company, in its sole discretion, whose determination shall be final and binding on all parties. Neither we, our affiliates or assigns, the exchange agent nor any other person shall be under any duty to give any notification of any irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification. Any original notes which have been tendered but which are withdrawn will be returned to the holder thereof promptly after withdrawal.

Conditions to the Exchange Offer

Notwithstanding any other provisions of the exchange offer, or any extension of the exchange offer, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or to exchange, any original notes for any exchange notes, and may terminate the exchange offer (whether or not any original notes have theretofore been accepted for exchange) or may waive any conditions to or amend the exchange offer, if, in the opinion of our legal counsel, the consummation of the exchange offer or any portion thereof would violate any applicable law or any applicable interpretation of the Commission or its staff. In such event, if we determine to amend the exchange offer and such amendment constitutes a material change to the exchange offer, we will promptly disclose such amendment by means of a prospectus supplement that will be distributed to the registered holders of the original notes, and we will extend the exchange offer to the extent required by Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act.

Exchange Agent

Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly First Union National Bank) has been appointed as exchange agent for the exchange offer. Delivery of the letter of transmittal and any other required documents, questions, requests for assistance, and requests for additional copies of this prospectus or of the letter of transmittal should be directed to the exchange agent as follows:

Wachovia Bank, National Association
c/o Wachovia Customer Information Center
1525 West W.T. Harris Boulevard
Charlotte, North Carolina 28262
Attn: Reorganization Department, 3C3-NC1153
Phone: (704) 590-7413
Facsimile: (704) 590-7628

Delivery to other than the above address or facsimile number will not constitute a valid delivery.

Fees and Expenses

We have agreed to pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and will reimburse it for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith. We will also pay brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by them in forwarding copies of this prospectus and related documents to the beneficial owners of original notes, and in handling or tendering for their customers.

Holders who tender their original notes for exchange will not be obligated to pay any transfer taxes in connection therewith. If, however, exchange notes are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of the original notes tendered, or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of original notes in connection with the exchange offer, then the amount of any such transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder or any other persons) will be payable by the tendering holder. If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes or exemption therefrom is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed directly to such tendering holder.

We will not make any payment to brokers, dealers or others soliciting acceptances of the exchange offer.

Accounting Treatment

The exchange notes will be recorded at the same carrying value as of the original notes, which is face value, as reflected in our accounting records on the date of the exchange. Accordingly, we will recognize no gain or loss for accounting purposes. The expense related to the issuance of the exchange notes and of the exchange offer will be deferred and amortized over the term of the exchange notes.

DESCRIPTION OF THE EXCHANGE NOTES

We issued the original notes and will issue the exchange notes under an indenture, dated as of March 14, 2002, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 26, 2002, the Second Supplemental Indenture dated as of November 8, 2002, the Third Supplemental Indenture dated as of January 17, 2003, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture dated as of May 9, 2003 and the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 17, 2003 among Sinclair, the guarantors and Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly First Union National Bank), as trustee (as amended or supplemented, the "Indenture"). The terms of the exchange notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939.

The following summary of the material provisions of the Indenture does not purport to be complete, and where reference is made to particular provisions of the Indenture, such provisions, including the definitions of certain terms, are qualified in their entirety by reference to all of the provisions of the Indenture and those terms made a part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. For definitions of certain capitalized terms used in the following summary, see "Certain Definitions." References in this section to "Sinclair", "we" and "our" refer to Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. without its subsidiaries, unless the context otherwise requires. Section references herein are to the Indenture. A copy of the form of Indenture will be made available upon request to Sinclair.

General

The exchange notes will mature on March 15, 2012, will initially be limited to $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount, and will be unsecured senior subordinated obligations of Sinclair. Each exchange note will bear interest at 8% per annum from the original issue date of the original note or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been paid, payable semiannually on September 15 and March 15 of each year, commencing September 15, 2003, to the Person in whose name the exchange note (or any predecessor exchange note) is registered at the close of business on the March 1 or September 1 next preceding such interest payment date.

The exchange notes will be guaranteed, fully and unconditionally and jointly and severally, on a senior subordinated basis by each of the guarantors, which consist of all but one of our subsidiaries that own or operate television stations and include all of our subsidiaries that have issued guarantees under the bank credit agreement, as amended. The issuer and the guarantors represented approximately 97% of our total assets as of March 31, 2003 and approximately 97% of our revenue, over 100% of our income from continuing operations before taxes and 99% of our cash flows from operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2003.

Principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the exchange notes will be payable, and the exchange notes will be exchangeable and transferable, at our office or agency maintained for such purposes (which initially will be the trustee under the Indenture); provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at our option by check mailed to the Person entitled to such interest as shown on the security register.

The exchange notes will be issued only in fully registered form without coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and any integral multiple thereof. (Section 302) See "—Book-Entry Securities; The Depository Trust Company; Delivery and Form." No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer, exchange or redemption of exchange notes, except in certain circumstances for any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed. (Section 306)

We may from time to time, without notice to or the consent of the holders of exchange notes, create and issue further exchange notes ranking equally with the exchange notes in all respects, subject to the limitations described under "Certain Covenants—Limitations on Indebtedness." Such further exchange notes may be consolidated and form a single series with the exchange notes, vote together with the exchange notes and have the same terms as to status, redemption or otherwise as the exchange

notes. References to exchange notes in this "Description of the Exchange Notes" include these additional exchange notes if they are in the same series, unless the context requires otherwise.

Optional Redemption

The exchange notes will be subject to redemption at any time on or after March 15, 2007, at our option, in whole or in part, on not less than 30 nor more than 60 days' prior notice by first-class mail in amounts of $1,000 or an integral multiple thereof at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of the principal amount), if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning March 15 of the years indicated below:

Redemption
Year Price

2007	104.000	%
2008	102.667	%
2009	101.333	%

and thereafter at 100% of the principal amount, in each case together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on relevant record dates to receive interest due on an interest payment date).

In addition, at any time on or prior to March 15, 2005, we may redeem up to 25% of the principal amount of Notes issued under the Indenture with the net proceeds of a Public Equity Offering of Sinclair at 108.000% of the aggregate principal amount, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date (subject to the right of holders of record on relevant record dates to receive interest due on an interest payment date).

If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed, the Trustee shall select the exchange notes or portions thereof to be redeemed pro rata, by lot or by any other method the Trustee shall deem fair and reasonable. (Sections 1101, 1105 and 1107)

Sinking Fund

There will be no sinking fund.

Subordination

The payment of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the exchange notes will be subordinated in right of payment, as set forth in the Indenture, to the prior payment in full of all Senior Indebtedness in cash or cash equivalents or in any other form as acceptable to the holders of Senior Indebtedness. The exchange notes will be senior subordinated indebtedness of Sinclair ranking pari passu with all other existing and future senior subordinated indebtedness of Sinclair and senior to all existing and future Subordinated Indebtedness of Sinclair. (Section 1201)

During the continuance of any default in the payment of any Designated Senior Indebtedness no payment (other than payments previously made pursuant to the provisions described under "—Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of Indenture") or distribution of Sinclair's assets of any kind or character (excluding certain permitted equity interests or subordinated securities) shall be made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the exchange notes or on account of the purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition of, the exchange notes unless and until such default has been cured, waived or has ceased to exist or such Designated Senior Indebtedness shall have been discharged or paid in full in cash or cash equivalents or in any other form as acceptable to the holders of Senior Indebtedness after which Sinclair shall resume making any and all required payments in respect of the exchange notes, including any missed payments.

During the continuance of any non-payment default with respect to any Designated Senior Indebtedness pursuant to which the maturity thereof may be accelerated (a "Non-payment Default") and after the receipt by the Trustee from a representative of the holder of any Designated Senior Indebtedness of a written notice of such Non-payment Default, no payment (other than payments previously made pursuant to the provisions described under "—Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of Indenture") or distribution of any of Sinclair's assets of any kind or character (excluding certain permitted equity or subordinated securities) may be made by Sinclair on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on, the exchange notes or on account of the purchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition of, the exchange notes for the period specified below (the "Payment Blockage Period").

The Payment Blockage Period shall commence upon the receipt of notice of the Non-payment Default by the Trustee and Sinclair from a representative of the holder of any Designated Senior Indebtedness and shall end on the earliest of

(1): the first date on which more than 179 days shall have elapsed since the receipt of such written notice (provided such Designated Senior Indebtedness as to which notice was given shall not have been accelerated),
(2): the date on which such Non-payment Default (and all Non-payment Defaults as to which notice is given after such Payment Blockage Period is initiated) are cured, waived or ceased to exist or on which such Designated Senior Indebtedness is discharged or paid in full in cash or cash equivalents or in any other form as acceptable to the holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness or
(3): the date on which such Payment Blockage Period (and all Non-payment Defaults as to which notice is given after such Payment Blockage Period is initiated) shall have been terminated by written notice to Sinclair or the Trustee from the representatives of holders of Designated Senior Indebtedness initiating such Payment Blockage Period.

When the Payment Blockage Period ends, in the case of clauses (1), (2) and (3), we shall promptly resume making any and all required payments in respect of the exchange notes, including any missed payments. In no event will a Payment Blockage Period extend beyond 179 days from the date of the receipt by Sinclair or the Trustee of the notice initiating such Payment Blockage Period (such 179-day period referred to as the "Initial Period"). Any number of notices of Non-payment Defaults may be given during the Initial Period; provided that during any 365-day consecutive period only one Payment Blockage Period, during which payment of principal of, or interest on, the exchange notes may not be made, may commence and the duration of the Payment Blockage Period may not exceed 179 days. No Non-payment Default with respect to Designated Senior Indebtedness which existed or was continuing on the date of the commencement of any Payment Blockage Period will be, or can be, made the basis for the commencement of a second Payment Blockage Period, whether or not within a period of 365 consecutive days, unless such default has been cured or waived for a period of not less than 90 consecutive days. (Section 1203)

If we fail to make any payment on the exchange notes when due or within any applicable grace period, whether or not on account of the payment blockage provisions referred to above, such failure would constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture and would enable the holders of the exchange notes to accelerate the maturity thereof. See "—Events of Default."

The Indenture provides that in the event of any insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, or any receivership, liquidation, reorganization or other similar case or proceeding, relative to Sinclair or its assets, or any liquidation, dissolution or other winding up of Sinclair, whether voluntary or involuntary and whether or not involving insolvency or bankruptcy, or any assignment for the benefit of creditors or any other marshalling of assets or liabilities of Sinclair, all Senior Indebtedness must be paid in full in cash or cash equivalents or in any other manner acceptable to the holders of Senior

Indebtedness, or provision made for such payment, before any payment or distribution (excluding distributions of certain permitted equity or subordinated securities) is made on account of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on the exchange notes. (Section 1202)

By reason of such subordination, in the event of liquidation or insolvency, Sinclair's creditors who are holders of Senior Indebtedness may recover more, ratably, than the holders of the exchange notes, and funds which would be otherwise payable to the holders of the exchange notes will be paid to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness to the extent necessary to pay the Senior Indebtedness in full in cash or cash equivalents or in any other manner acceptable to the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and Sinclair may be unable to meet its obligations fully with respect to the exchange notes.

Each Guarantee of a Guarantor will be an unsecured senior subordinated obligation of such Guarantor, ranking pari passu with, or senior in right of payment to, all other existing and future Indebtedness of such Guarantor that is expressly subordinated to Guarantor Senior Indebtedness. The Indebtedness evidenced by the Guarantees will be subordinated to Guarantor Senior Indebtedness to the same extent as the exchange notes are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness and during any period when payment on the exchange notes is blocked by Designated Senior Indebtedness, payment on the Guarantees is similarly blocked.

"Senior Indebtedness" is defined as the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding under any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy law whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding) on any Indebtedness of Sinclair (other than as otherwise provided in this definition), whether outstanding on the date of the Indenture or thereafter created, incurred or assumed, and whether at any time owing, actually or contingent, unless, in the case of any particular Indebtedness, the instrument creating or evidencing the same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding expressly provides that such Indebtedness shall not be senior in right of payment to the exchange notes. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, "Senior Indebtedness" shall include (1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding under any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy law whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding) and all other obligations of every nature of Sinclair from time to time owed to the lenders (or their agent) under the Bank Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any Indebtedness under any refinancing, refunding or replacement of the Bank Credit Agreement shall not constitute Senior Indebtedness to the extent that the Indebtedness thereunder is by its express terms subordinate to any other Indebtedness of Sinclair, (2) Indebtedness outstanding under the Founders' Notes and (3) Indebtedness under Interest Rate Agreements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Senior Indebtedness" shall not include

(1): Indebtedness evidenced by the exchange notes,
(2): Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of Sinclair,
(3): Indebtedness which when incurred and without respect to any election under Section 1111(b) of Title 11 United States Code, is without recourse to Sinclair,
(4): Indebtedness which is represented by Disqualified Equity Interests,
(5): any liability for foreign, federal, state, local or other taxes owed or owing by Sinclair,
(6): Indebtedness of Sinclair to the extent such liability constitutes Indebtedness to a Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of Sinclair or any of such Affiliate's subsidiaries,
(7): that portion of any Indebtedness which at the time of issuance is issued in violation of the Indenture, and
(8): Indebtedness owed by Sinclair for compensation to employees or for services.

"Guarantor Senior Indebtedness" is defined as the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding under any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy laws whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding) on any Indebtedness of any Guarantor (other than as otherwise provided in this definition), whether outstanding on the date of the Indenture or thereafter created, incurred or assumed, and whether at any time owing, actually or contingent, unless, in the case of any particular Indebtedness, the instrument creating or evidencing the same or pursuant to which the same is outstanding expressly provides that such Indebtedness shall not be senior in right of payment to any Guarantee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, "Guarantor Senior Indebtedness" shall include (1) the principal of, premium, if any, and interest (including interest accruing after the filing of a petition initiating any proceeding under any state, federal or foreign bankruptcy law whether or not allowable as a claim in such proceeding) and all other obligations of every nature of any Guarantor from time to time owed to the lenders (or their agent) under the Bank Credit Agreement; provided, however, that any Indebtedness under any refinancing, refunding, or replacement of the Bank Credit Agreement shall not constitute Guarantor Senior Indebtedness to the extent that the Indebtedness thereunder is by its express terms subordinate to any other Indebtedness of any Guarantor, (2) Indebtedness evidenced by any guarantee of the Founders' Notes and (3) Indebtedness under Interest Rate Agreements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, "Guarantor Senior Indebtedness" shall not include

(1): Indebtedness evidenced by the Guarantees,
(2): Indebtedness that is subordinate or junior in right of payment to any Indebtedness of any Guarantor,
(3): Indebtedness which when incurred and without respect to any election under Section 1111(b) of Title 11 of the United States Code, is without recourse to any Guarantor,
(4): Indebtedness which is represented by Disqualified Equity Interests,
(5): any liability for foreign, federal, state, local or other taxes owed or owing by any Guarantor to the extent such liability constitutes Indebtedness,
(6): Indebtedness of any Guarantor to a Subsidiary or any other Affiliate of Sinclair or any of such Affiliate's subsidiaries,
(7): Indebtedness evidenced by any guarantee of any Subordinated Indebtedness or Pari Passu Indebtedness,
(8): that portion of any Indebtedness which at the time of issuance is issued in violation of the Indenture, and
(9): Indebtedness owed by any Guarantor for compensation to employees or for services.

"Designated Senior Indebtedness" is defined as (1) all Senior Indebtedness outstanding under the Bank Credit Agreement and (2) any other Senior Indebtedness which is incurred pursuant to an agreement (or series of related agreements) simultaneously entered into providing for indebtedness, or commitments to lend, of at least $25,000,000 at the time of determination and is specifically designated in the instrument evidencing such Senior Indebtedness or the agreement under which such Senior Indebtedness arises as "Designated Senior Indebtedness" by Sinclair.

As of March 31, 2003, on an as adjusted basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 offering of the original notes, the May 2003 offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, the redemption of the HYTOPS and the application of excess proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, (1) Sinclair had $547.4 million of Senior Indebtedness (which ranked senior to the exchange notes), all of which was guaranteed by the Guarantors on a senior basis; (2) Sinclair had $1,118.7 million of Senior Subordinated Indebtedness including the original notes (which ranked equal

to each other), all of which was guaranteed by the Guarantors on a senior subordinated basis; (3) the Guarantors had an additional $72.0 million of Senior Indebtedness which ranked senior to the Guarantees of the original notes; and (4) Sinclair was able to borrow an additional $180.8 million under Sinclair's Bank Credit Agreement, which would constitute Senior Indebtedness to which the original notes were subordinated and were guaranteed by the Guarantors on a senior basis. See "Risk Factors—You may not receive full payment on the exchange notes if our assets are insufficient to pay debt that is senior to the exchange notes." Sinclair and its Subsidiaries' ability to incur additional Indebtedness is restricted as set forth under "Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness." Any Indebtedness which can be incurred may constitute additional Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness.

Guarantees

The Guarantors will, fully and conditionally and jointly and severally, unconditionally guarantee the due and punctual payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on, the exchange notes. Such Guarantees will be subordinated to the Guarantor Senior Indebtedness. See "—Subordination."

As of March 31, 2003, on an as adjusted basis, after giving effect to the May 2003 offering of the original notes, the May 2003 offering of convertible senior subordinated notes due 2018, the redemption of the HYTOPS and the application of excess proceeds to reduce indebtedness under the bank credit agreement, the aggregate amount of Guarantor Senior Indebtedness that would have ranked senior in right of payment to the Guarantees would have been $619.3 million (including $547.4 million of outstanding indebtedness representing guarantees of Senior Indebtedness). Moreover, Sinclair would have been able to borrow an additional $180.8 million under the Bank Credit Agreement, which would constitute Guarantor Senior Indebtedness that would rank senior in right of payment to the Guarantees.

Under certain circumstances described under "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness," we are required to cause the execution and delivery of additional Guarantees by Restricted Subsidiaries. (Section 1014)

In addition, upon any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of Sinclair, of all of Sinclair's Equity Interest in, or all or substantially all of the assets of, any Guarantor, which is in compliance with the Indenture, such Guarantor shall be released from all its obligations under its Guarantee.

The Guarantors consist of 107 of our existing Subsidiaries, including all but one of our Subsidiaries that own or operate television stations and all Subsidiaries that have issued guarantees under the Bank Credit Agreement. Sinclair and the Guarantors represented approximately 97% of our total assets as of March 31, 2003 and approximately 97% of our revenue, over 100% of our income continuing operations before taxes and 99% of our cash flows from operating activities for the year ended March 31, 2003.

Certain Covenants

The Indenture contains, among others, the following covenants:

Limitation on Indebtedness. We will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create, incur, assume or directly or indirectly guarantee or in any other manner become directly or indirectly liable for ("incur") any Indebtedness (including Acquired Indebtedness), except that Sinclair may incur Indebtedness and a Guarantor may incur Permitted Subsidiary Indebtedness if, in each case, the Debt to Operating Cash Flow Ratio of Sinclair and its Restricted Subsidiaries at the time of the incurrence of such Indebtedness, after giving pro forma effect thereto, is 7:1 or less.

The foregoing limitation will not apply to the incurrence of any of the following (collectively, "Permitted Indebtedness"):

(1): Indebtedness of Sinclair under the Bank Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed amounts committed and undrawn as of the date of the Indenture under any revolving credit facility thereunder;
(2): Indebtedness of Sinclair pursuant to the exchange notes and Indebtedness of any Guarantor pursuant to a Guarantee;
(3): Indebtedness of any Guarantor consisting of a guarantee of Sinclair's Indebtedness under the Bank Credit Agreement;
(4): Indebtedness of Sinclair or any Restricted Subsidiary outstanding on the date of the Indenture and listed on a schedule thereto;
(5): Indebtedness of Sinclair owing to a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that any Indebtedness of Sinclair owing to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor is made pursuant to an intercompany note in the form attached to the Indenture and is subordinated in right of payment from and after such time as the exchange notes shall become due and payable (whether at Stated Maturity, acceleration or otherwise) to the payment and performance of Sinclair's obligations under the exchange notes; provided, further, that any disposition, pledge or transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person (other than a disposition, pledge or transfer to a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or a pledge to or for the benefit of the lenders under the Bank Credit Agreement) shall be deemed to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor not permitted by this clause (5);
(6): Indebtedness of a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary owing to Sinclair or another Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary; provided that, with respect to Indebtedness owing to a Wholly Owned Subsidiary that is not a Guarantor, (x) any such Indebtedness is made pursuant to an intercompany note in the form attached to the Indenture and (y) any such Indebtedness shall be subordinated in right of payment from and after such time as the obligations under the Guarantee by such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary shall become due and payable to the payment and performance of such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary's obligations under its Guarantee; provided, further, that (a) any disposition, pledge or transfer of any such Indebtedness to a Person (other than a disposition, pledge or transfer to Sinclair or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary or pledge to or for the benefit of the lenders under the Bank Credit Agreement) shall be deemed to be an incurrence of such Indebtedness by the obligor not permitted by this clause (6) and (b) any transaction pursuant to which any Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, which has Indebtedness owing to Sinclair or any other Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, ceases to be a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to be the incurrence of Indebtedness by such Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary that is not permitted by this clause (6);
(7): guarantees of any Restricted Subsidiary made in accordance with the provisions of "—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness";
(8): obligations of Sinclair entered into in the ordinary course of business pursuant to Interest Rate Agreements designed to protect Sinclair against fluctuations in interest rates in respect of Sinclair's Indebtedness as long as such obligations at the time incurred do not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Indebtedness then outstanding or in good faith anticipated to be outstanding within 90 days of such occurrence;
(9): any renewals, extensions, substitutions, refundings, refinancings or replacements (collectively, a "refinancing") of any Indebtedness described in clauses (2), (3), (4) and (5) above, including any successive refinancings so long as the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness

represented thereby is not increased by such refinancing plus the lesser of (I) the stated amount of any premium or other payment required to be paid in connection with such a refinancing pursuant to the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced or (II) the amount of premium or other payment actually paid at such time to refinance the Indebtedness, plus, in either case, the amount of expenses of Sinclair incurred in connection with such refinancing and, in the case of Pari Passu or Subordinated Indebtedness, such refinancing does not reduce the Average Life to Stated Maturity or the Stated Maturity of such Indebtedness; and

(10): Indebtedness of Sinclair in addition to that described in clauses (1) through (9) above, and any renewals, extensions, substitutions, refinancings, or replacements of such Indebtedness, so long as the aggregate principal amount of all such Indebtedness shall not exceed $25,000,000. (Section 1008)

Limitation on Restricted Payments. (a) We will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly:

(1): declare or pay any dividend on, or make any distribution to holders of, any of Sinclair's Equity Interests (other than dividends or distributions payable solely in its Qualified Equity Interests);
(2): purchase, redeem or otherwise acquire or retire for value, directly or indirectly, any Equity Interest of Sinclair or any Affiliate thereof (except Equity Interests held by Sinclair or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary);
(3): make any principal payment on, or repurchase, redeem, defease, retire or otherwise acquire for value, prior to any scheduled principal payment, sinking fund or maturity, any Subordinated Indebtedness;
(4): declare or pay any dividend or distribution on any Equity Interests of any Subsidiary to any Person (other than Sinclair or any of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries);
(5): incur, create or assume any guarantee of Indebtedness of any Affiliate (other than a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair); or
(6): make any Investment in any Person (other than any Permitted Investments)

(any of the foregoing payments described in clauses (1) through (6), other than any such action that is a Permitted Payment, collectively, "Restricted Payments") unless after giving effect to the proposed Restricted Payment (the amount of any such Restricted Payment, if other than cash, as determined by our Board of Directors, whose determination shall be conclusive and evidenced by a Board resolution),

(1)

no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and such Restricted Payment shall not be an event which is, or after notice or lapse of time or both, would be, an "event of default" under the terms of any Indebtedness of Sinclair or its Restricted Subsidiaries; and

(2)

the aggregate amount of all such Restricted Payments declared or made after the date of the Indenture does not exceed the sum of:

(A): an amount equal to Sinclair's Cumulative Operating Cash Flow less 1.4 times Sinclair's Cumulative Consolidated Interest Expense;
(B): the aggregate Net Cash Proceeds received after December 9, 1993 by Sinclair from capital contributions (other than from a Subsidiary) or from the issuance or sale (other than to any of our Subsidiaries) of our Qualified Equity Interests (except, in each case, to the extent such proceeds are used to purchase, redeem or otherwise retire Equity Interests or Subordinated Indebtedness as set forth below); and

(C): to the extent that any Investment constituting a Restricted Payment (including an Investment in an Unrestricted Subsidiary) that was made after the date of the Indenture is sold or is otherwise liquidated or repaid, 100% of the amount (to the extent not included in Cumulative Operating Cash Flow) equal to the Net Cash Proceeds or Fair Market Value of marketable securities received with respect to such Investment (less the cost of the disposition of such Investment and net of taxes).

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, and in the case of clauses (2) through (5) below, so long as there is no Default or Event of Default continuing, the foregoing provisions shall not prohibit the following actions (clauses (1) through (5) being referred to as "Permitted Payments"):

(1): the payment of any dividend within 60 days after the date of declaration thereof, if at such date of declaration such payment would be permitted by the provisions of paragraph (a) of this Section and such payment shall be deemed to have been paid on such date of declaration for purposes of the calculation required by paragraph (a) of this Section;
(2): any transaction with an officer or director of Sinclair entered into in the ordinary course of business (including compensation or employee benefit arrangements with any officer or director of Sinclair);
(3): the repurchase, redemption, or other acquisition or retirement of any Equity Interests of Sinclair in exchange for (including any such exchange pursuant to the exercise of a conversion right or privilege in connection therewith cash is paid in lieu of the issuance of fractional shares or scrip), or out of the Net Cash Proceeds of, a substantially concurrent issue and sale for cash (other than to a Subsidiary) of other Qualified Equity Interests of Sinclair; provided that the Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance of such Qualified Equity Interests are excluded from clause (2)(B) of paragraph (a) of this Section;
(4): any repurchase, redemption, defeasance, retirement, refinancing or acquisition for value or payment of principal of any Subordinated Indebtedness in exchange for, or out of the net proceeds of, a substantially concurrent issuance and sale for cash (other than to any Subsidiary of Sinclair) of any Qualified Equity Interests of Sinclair, provided that the Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance of such Qualified Equity Interests are excluded from clause (2)(B) of paragraph (a) of this Section; and
(5): the repurchase, redemption, defeasance, retirement, refinancing or acquisition for value or payment of principal of any Subordinated Indebtedness (other than Disqualified Equity Interests) (a "refinancing") through the issuance of new Subordinated Indebtedness of Sinclair, as the case may be, provided that any such new Indebtedness (A) shall be in a principal amount that does not exceed the principal amount so refinanced or, if such Subordinated Indebtedness provides for an amount less than the principal amount thereof to be due and payable upon a declaration or acceleration thereof, then such lesser amount as of the date of determination), plus the lesser of (I) the stated amount of any premium, interest or other payment required to be paid in connection with such a refinancing pursuant to the terms of the Indebtedness being refinanced or (II) the amount of premium, interest or other payment actually paid at such time to refinance the Indebtedness, plus, in either case, the amount of expenses of Sinclair incurred in connection with such refinancing; (B) has an Average Life to Stated Maturity greater than the remaining Average Life to Stated Maturity of the exchange notes; (C) has a Stated Maturity for its final scheduled principal payment later than the Stated Maturity for the final scheduled principal payment of the exchange notes; and (D) is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the exchange notes at least to the same extent as the Indebtedness to be refinanced. (Section 1009)

Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. We will not, and will not permit any of our Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, enter into or suffer to exist any transaction or series of related

transactions (including, without limitation, the sale, purchase, exchange or lease of assets, property or services) with any Affiliate of Sinclair (other than Sinclair or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary) unless

(1): such transaction or series of transactions is in writing on terms that are no less favorable to Sinclair or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, than would be available in a comparable transaction in arm's-length dealings with an unrelated third party and
(2): with respect to any transaction or series of transactions involving aggregate payments in excess of $1,000,000, we deliver an officers' certificate to the Trustee certifying that such transaction or series of related transactions complies with clause (1) above and such transaction or series of related transactions has been approved by a majority of the members of our Board of Directors (and approved by a majority of Independent Directors or, in the event there is only one Independent Director, by such Independent Director) and
(3): with respect to any transaction or series of transactions involving aggregate payments in excess of $5,000,000, an opinion as to the fairness to us or such Restricted Subsidiary from a financial point of view issued by an investment banking firm of national standing.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision will not apply to (A) any transaction with an officer or director of Sinclair entered into in the ordinary course of business (including compensation or employee benefit arrangements with any officer or director of Sinclair), (B) any transaction entered into by Sinclair or one of its Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiaries with a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair, and (C) transactions in existence on the date of the Indenture. (Section 1010)

Limitation on Senior Subordinated Indebtedness. We will not, and will not permit any Guarantor to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, issue, assume, guarantee or otherwise in any manner become directly or indirectly liable for or with respect to or otherwise permit to exist any Indebtedness that is subordinate in right of payment to any Indebtedness of Sinclair or such Guarantor, as the case may be, unless such Indebtedness is also pari passu with the exchange notes or the Guarantee of such Guarantor, or subordinate in right of payment to the exchange notes or such Guarantee to at least the same extent as the exchange notes or such Guarantee are subordinate in right of payment to Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, as the case may be, as set forth in the Indenture. (Section 1011)

Limitation on Liens. We will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create, incur, affirm or suffer to exist any Lien of any kind upon any of its property or assets (including any intercompany notes), now owned or acquired after the date of the Indenture, or any income or profits therefrom, except if the exchange notes are directly secured equally and ratably with (or prior to in the case of Liens with respect to Subordinated Indebtedness) the obligation or liability secured by such Lien, excluding, however, from the operation of the foregoing any of the following:

(a): any Lien existing as of the date of the Indenture and listed on a schedule thereto;
(b): any Lien arising by reason of (1) any judgment, decree or order of any court, so long as such Lien is adequately bonded and any appropriate legal proceedings which may have been duly initiated for the review of such judgment, decree or order shall not have been finally terminated or the period within which such proceedings may be initiated shall not have expired; (2) taxes not yet delinquent or which are being contested in good faith; (3) security for payment of workers' compensation or other insurance; (4) good faith deposits in connection with tenders, leases, contracts (other than contracts for the payment of money); (5) zoning restrictions, easements, licenses, reservations, provisions, covenants, conditions, waivers, restrictions on the use of property or minor irregularities of title (and with respect to leasehold interests, mortgages, obligations, liens and other encumbrances incurred, created, assumed or permitted to exist and arising by, through or under a landlord or owner of the leased property, with or without consent of the lessee), none of which materially impairs the

use of any parcel of property material to the operation of the business of Sinclair or any Subsidiary or the value of such property for the purpose of such business; (6) deposits to secure public or statutory obligations, or in lieu of surety or appeal bonds; (7) surveys, exceptions, title defects, encumbrances, reservations of, or rights of others for, rights of way, sewers, electric lines, telegraph or telephone lines and other similar purposes or zoning or other restrictions as to the use of real property not interfering with the ordinary conduct of the business of Sinclair or any of its Subsidiaries; or (8) operation of law in favor of mechanics, materialmen, laborers, employees or suppliers, incurred in the ordinary course of business for sums which are not yet delinquent or are being contested in good faith by negotiations or by appropriate proceedings which suspend the collection thereof;

(c): any Lien now or hereafter existing on property of Sinclair or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries securing Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, in each case which Indebtedness is permitted under the provisions of "—Limitation on Indebtedness" and provided that the provisions described under "—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness" are complied with;
(d): any Lien securing Acquired Indebtedness created prior to (and not created in connection with, or in contemplation of) the incurrence of such Indebtedness by Sinclair or any Subsidiary, in each case which Indebtedness is permitted under the provisions of "—Limitation on Indebtedness"; provided that any such Lien only extends to the assets that were subject to such Lien securing such Acquired Indebtedness prior to the related transaction by Sinclair or its Subsidiaries;
(e): any Lien securing Permitted Subsidiary Indebtedness; and
(f): any extension, renewal, refinancing or replacement, in whole or in part, of any Lien described in the foregoing clauses (a) through (e) so long as the amount of security is not increased thereby. (Section 1012)

Limitation on Sale of Assets. (a) We will not, and will not permit any of our Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, consummate an Asset Sale unless (1) at least 80% of the consideration from such Asset Sale (exclusive of assumed Senior Indebtedness to which we and our Restricted Subsidiaries have received a full and unconditional release from such liability in connection with such Asset Sale) is received in cash and (2) we or such Restricted Subsidiary receives consideration at the time of such Asset Sale at least equal to the Fair Market Value of the shares or assets sold (other than in the case of an involuntary Asset Sale, as determined by our Board of Directors and evidenced in a Board resolution or in connection with an Asset Swap as determined in writing by a nationally recognized investment banking or appraisal firm); provided, however, that in the event Sinclair or any Restricted Subsidiary engages in an Asset Sale with any third party and receives in consideration therefor, or simultaneously with such Asset Sale enters into, a Local Marketing Agreement with such third party or any affiliate thereof, the Fair Market Value of such Local Marketing Agreement (as determined in writing by a nationally recognized investment banking or appraisal firm) shall be deemed cash and considered when determining whether such Asset Sale complies with the foregoing clauses (1) and (2). Notwithstanding the foregoing, clause (1) of the preceding sentence shall not be applicable to any Asset Swap.

(b) If all or a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale are not required to be applied to repay permanently any Senior Indebtedness then outstanding as required by the terms thereof, or Sinclair determines not to apply such Net Cash Proceeds to the permanent prepayment of such Senior Indebtedness or if no such Senior Indebtedness is then outstanding, then Sinclair may within 12 months of the Asset Sale, invest the Net Cash Proceeds in properties and assets that (as determined by the Board of Directors of Sinclair) replace the properties and assets that were the subject of the Asset Sale or in properties and assets that will be used in the businesses of Sinclair or its Restricted Subsidiaries existing on the date of the Indenture or reasonably related thereto. The amount of such Net Cash

Proceeds neither used to permanently repay or prepay Senior Indebtedness nor used or invested as set forth in this paragraph constitutes "Excess Proceeds."

(c) When the aggregate amount of Excess Proceeds equals $5,000,000 or more, we shall apply the Excess Proceeds to the repayment of the exchange notes and any Pari Passu Indebtedness required to be repurchased under the instrument governing such Pari Passu Indebtedness as follows:

(A) we shall make an offer to purchase (an "Offer") from all holders of the exchange notes in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture in the maximum principal amount (expressed as a multiple of $1,000) of exchange notes that may be purchased out of an amount (the "Note Amount") equal to the product of such Excess Proceeds multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the exchange notes, and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the exchange notes and such Pari Passu Indebtedness (subject to proration in the event such amount is less than the aggregate Offered Price of all exchange notes tendered) and

(B) to the extent required by such Pari Passu Indebtedness to permanently reduce the principal amount of such Pari Passu Indebtedness, we shall make an offer to purchase or otherwise repurchase or redeem Pari Passu Indebtedness (a "Pari Passu Offer") in an amount (the "Pari Passu Debt Amount") equal to the excess of the Excess Proceeds over the Note Amount; provided that in no event shall the Pari Passu Debt Amount exceed the principal amount of such Pari Passu Indebtedness plus the amount of any premium required to be paid to repurchase such Pari Passu Indebtedness.

The offer price shall be payable in cash in an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount of the exchange notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date (the "Offer Date") such Offer is consummated (the "Offered Price"), in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Indenture. To the extent that the aggregate Offered Price of the exchange notes tendered pursuant to the Offer is less than the Note Amount relating thereto or the aggregate amount of Pari Passu Indebtedness that is purchased is less than the Pari Passu Debt Amount (the amount of such shortfall, if any, constituting a "Deficiency"), Sinclair shall use such Deficiency in the business of Sinclair and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Upon completion of the purchase of all the exchange notes tendered pursuant to an Offer and repurchase of the Pari Passu Indebtedness pursuant to a Pari Passu Offer, the amount of Excess Proceeds, if any, shall be reset at zero.

(d) Whenever the Excess Proceeds received by Sinclair exceed $5,000,000, such Excess Proceeds shall be set aside by Sinclair in a separate account pending (i) deposit with the depositary or a paying agent of the amount required to purchase the exchange notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered in an Offer or a Pari Passu Offer, (ii) delivery by Sinclair of the Offered Price to the holders of the exchange notes or Pari Passu Indebtedness tendered in an Offer or a Pari Passu Offer and (iii) application, as set forth above, of Excess Proceeds in the business of Sinclair and its Restricted Subsidiaries. Such Excess Proceeds may be invested in Temporary Cash Investments, provided that the maturity date of any such investment made after the amount of Excess Proceeds exceeds $5,000,000 shall not be later than the Offer Date. We shall be entitled to any interest or dividends accrued, earned or paid on such Temporary Cash Investments, provided that we shall not withdraw such interest from the separate account if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(e) If we become obligated to make an Offer pursuant to clause (c) above, the exchange notes shall be purchased by us, at the option of the holder thereof, in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, on a date that is not earlier than 45 days and not later than 60 days from the date the notice is given to holders, or such later date as may be necessary for us to comply with the requirements under the Exchange Act, subject to proration in the event the Note Amount is less than the aggregate Offered Price of all exchange notes tendered.

(f) We shall comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with an Offer.

(g) We will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, create or permit to exist or become effective any restriction (other than restrictions existing under (i) Indebtedness as in effect on the date of the Indenture and listed on a schedule thereto as such Indebtedness may be refinanced from time to time, provided that such restrictions are no less favorable to the holders of the exchange notes than those existing on the date of the Indenture or (ii) any Senior Indebtedness and any Guarantor Senior Indebtedness) that would materially impair our ability to make an Offer to purchase the exchange notes or, if such Offer is made, to pay for the exchange notes tendered for purchase. (Section 1013)

Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness. (a) We will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, other than the Guarantors, directly or indirectly, to secure the payment of any of Sinclair's Senior Indebtedness and we will not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, pledge any intercompany notes representing obligations of any Restricted Subsidiary (other than the Guarantors) to secure the payment of any Senior Indebtedness unless in each case such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to the Indenture providing for a guarantee of payment of the exchange notes by such Restricted Subsidiary, which guarantee shall be on the same terms as the guarantee of the Senior Indebtedness (if a guarantee of Senior Indebtedness is granted by any such Restricted Subsidiary) except that the guarantee of the exchange notes need not be secured and shall be subordinated to the claims against such Restricted Subsidiary in respect of Senior Indebtedness to the same extent as the exchange notes are subordinated to Senior Indebtedness of Sinclair under the Indenture.

(b) We will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary, other than the Guarantors, directly or indirectly, to guarantee, assume or in any other manner become liable with respect to any of our Indebtedness (other than guarantees in existence on the date of the Indenture) unless such Restricted Subsidiary simultaneously executes and delivers a supplemental indenture to the Indenture providing for a guarantee of the exchange notes on the same terms as the guarantee of such Indebtedness except that if the exchange notes are subordinated in right of payment to such Indebtedness, the guarantee under the supplemental indenture shall be subordinated to the guarantee of such Indebtedness to the same extent as the exchange notes are subordinated to such Indebtedness under the Indenture.

(c) Each guarantee created pursuant to the provisions described in the foregoing paragraph is referred to as a "Guarantee" and the issuer of each such Guarantee is referred to as a "Guarantor." Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Guarantee by a Restricted Subsidiary of the exchange notes shall provide by its terms that it shall be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon

(1) any sale, exchange or transfer, to any Person not an Affiliate of Sinclair, of all of Sinclair's Equity Interest in, or all or substantially all the assets of, such Restricted Subsidiary, which is in compliance with the Indenture or

(2) with respect to any Guarantees created after the date of the Indenture, the release by the holders of the Indebtedness of Sinclair described in clauses (a) and (b) above of their security interest or their guarantee by such Restricted Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Indebtedness), at a time when (A) no other Indebtedness of Sinclair has been secured or guaranteed by such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be, or (B) the holders of all such other Indebtedness which is secured or guaranteed by such Restricted Subsidiary also release their security interest in, or guarantee by, such Restricted Subsidiary (including any deemed release upon payment in full of all obligations under such Indebtedness). (Section 1014)

Restriction on Transfer of Assets. Sinclair and the Guarantors will not sell, convey, transfer or otherwise dispose of their respective assets or property to any of Sinclair's Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Guarantor), except for sales, conveyances, transfers or other dispositions made in the ordinary course of business and except for capital contributions to any Restricted Subsidiary, the only material assets of which are broadcast licenses.

For purposes of this provision, any sale, conveyance, transfer, lease or other disposition of property or assets, having a Fair Market Value in excess of (a) $1,000,000 for any sale, conveyance, transfer, leases or disposition or series of related sales, conveyances, transfers, leases and dispositions and (b) $5,000,000 in the aggregate for all such sales, conveyances, transfers, leases or dispositions in any fiscal year of Sinclair shall not be considered "in the ordinary course of business." (Section 1015)

Purchase of Exchange Notes Upon a Change of Control. If a Change of Control shall occur at any time, then each holder of exchange notes shall have the right to require that we purchase such holder's exchange notes in whole or in part in integral multiples of $1,000, at a purchase price (the "Change of Control Purchase Price") in cash in an amount equal to 101% of the principal amount of such exchange notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (the "Change of Control Purchase Date"), pursuant to the offer described below (the "Change of Control Offer") and the other procedures set forth in the Indenture.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control, we shall notify the Trustee thereof and give written notice of such Change of Control to each holder of exchange notes, by first-class mail, postage prepaid, at his address appearing in the security register, stating, among other things, the purchase price and that the purchase date shall be a business day no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is mailed, or such later date as is necessary to comply with requirements under the Exchange Act; that any Note not tendered will continue to accrue interest; that, unless we default in the payment of the purchase price, any exchange notes accepted for payment pursuant to the Change of Control Offer shall cease to accrue interest after the Change of Control Purchase Date; and certain other procedures that a holder of exchange notes must follow to accept a Change of Control Offer or to withdraw such acceptance.

If a Change of Control Offer is made, there can be no assurance that we will have available funds sufficient to pay the Change of Control Purchase Price for all of the exchange notes that might be delivered by holders of the exchange notes seeking to accept the Change of Control Offer. A Change of Control will also result in an event of default under the Bank Credit Agreement and could result in the acceleration of all indebtedness under the Bank Credit Agreement. See "Description of Indebtedness—Bank Credit Agreement." Moreover, the Bank Credit Agreement prohibits the repurchase of the exchange notes by us. Our failure to make or consummate the Change of Control Offer or pay the Change of Control Purchase Price when due will result in an Event of Default under the Indenture.

The term "all or substantially all" as used in the definition of "Change of Control" has not been interpreted under New York law (which is the governing law of the Indenture) to represent a specific quantitative test. As a consequence, in the event the holders of the exchange notes elected to exercise their rights under the Indenture and we elected to contest such election, there could be no assurance as to how a court interpreting New York law would interpret the phrase.

The existence of a holder's right to require us to repurchase such holder's exchange notes upon a Change of Control may deter a third party from acquiring us in a transaction which constitutes a Change of Control.

"Change of Control" means the occurrence of either of the following events:

(1) any "person" or "group" (as such terms are used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), other than Permitted Holders, is or becomes the "beneficial owner" (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and 13d-5 under the Exchange Act, except that a Person shall be deemed to have beneficial ownership of all shares that such Person has the right to acquire, whether such right is exercisable immediately or only after the passage of time), directly or indirectly, of more than 40% of the total outstanding Voting Stock of Sinclair, provided that the Permitted Holders "beneficially own" (as so defined) a lesser percentage of such Voting Stock than such other Person and do not have the right or ability by voting

power, contract or otherwise to elect or designate for election a majority of the Board of Directors of Sinclair;

(2) during any period of two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constituted the Board of Directors of Sinclair (together with any new directors whose election to such Board or whose nomination for election by the shareholders of Sinclair, was approved by a vote of at least 66²/3% of the directors then still in office who were either directors at the beginning of such period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of such Board of Directors then in office;

(3) Sinclair consolidates with or merges with or into any Person or conveys, transfers or leases all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, or any corporation consolidates with or merges into or with Sinclair, in any such event pursuant to a transaction in which the outstanding Voting Stock of Sinclair is changed into or exchanged for cash, securities or other property, other than any such transaction where the outstanding Voting Stock of Sinclair is not changed or exchanged at all (except to the extent necessary to reflect a change in the jurisdiction of incorporation of Sinclair) or where (A) the outstanding Voting Stock of Sinclair is changed into or exchanged for (x) Voting Stock of the surviving corporation which is not Disqualified Equity Interests or (y) cash, securities and other property (other than Equity Interests of the surviving corporation) in an amount which could be paid by Sinclair as a Restricted Payment as described under "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" (and such amount shall be treated as a Restricted Payment subject to the provisions in the Indenture described under "—Limitation on Restricted Payments") and (B) no "person" or "group" other than Permitted Holders owns immediately after such transaction, directly or indirectly, more than the greater of (1) 40% of the total outstanding Voting Stock of the surviving corporation and (2) the percentage of the outstanding Voting Stock of the surviving corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by Permitted Holders immediately after such transaction; or

(4) Sinclair is liquidated or dissolved or adopts a plan of liquidation or dissolution other than in a transaction which complies with the provisions described under "—Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets."

"Permitted Holders" means as of the date of determination (1) any of David D. Smith, Frederick G. Smith, J. Duncan Smith and Robert E. Smith; (2) family members or the relatives of the Persons described in clause (1); (3) any trusts created for the benefit of the Persons described in clauses (1), (2) or (4) or any trust for the benefit of any such trust; or (4) in the event of the incompetence or death of any of the Persons described in clauses (1) and (2), such Person's estate, executor, administrator, committee or other personal representative or beneficiaries, in each case who at any particular date shall beneficially own or have the right to acquire, directly or indirectly, Equity Interests of Sinclair.

The provisions of the Indenture will not afford holders of exchange notes the right to require Sinclair to repurchase the exchange notes in the event of a highly leveraged transaction or certain transactions with Sinclair's management or its affiliates, including a reorganization, restructuring, merger or similar transaction (including, in certain circumstances, an acquisition of Sinclair by management or its Affiliates) involving Sinclair that may adversely affect holders of the exchange notes, if such transaction is not a transaction defined as a Change of Control. A transaction involving Sinclair's management or its Affiliates, or a transaction involving a recapitalization of Sinclair, will result in a Change of Control if it is the type of transaction specified by such definition. We will comply with the applicable tender offer rules, including Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other applicable securities laws or regulations in connection with a Change of Control Offer. (Section 1016)

Limitation on Subsidiary Equity Interests. Sinclair will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair to issue any Equity Interests, except for (1) Equity Interests issued to and held by Sinclair or a Wholly Owned Restricted Subsidiary, and (2) Equity Interests issued by a Person prior to the time (A) such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary, (B) such Person merges with or into a Restricted

Subsidiary or (C) a Restricted Subsidiary merges with or into such Person; provided that such Equity Interests were not issued or incurred by such Person in anticipation of the type of transaction contemplated by subclause (A), (B) or (C). (Section 1017)

Limitation on Dividends and Other Payment Restrictions Affecting Subsidiaries. Sinclair will not, and will not permit any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to, directly or indirectly, create or otherwise cause or suffer to exist or become effective any encumbrance or restriction on the ability of any Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair to

(1): pay dividends or make any other distribution on its Equity Interests,
(2): pay any Indebtedness owed to Sinclair or a Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair,
(3): make any Investment in Sinclair or a Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair or
(4): transfer any of its properties or assets to Sinclair or any Restricted Subsidiary.

However, this covenant will not prohibit

(1): any encumbrance or restriction pursuant to an agreement in effect on the date of the Indenture and listed on a schedule thereto or contained in any other indenture or instrument governing debt or preferred securities that are no more restrictive than those contained in the Indenture;
(2): any encumbrance or restriction, with respect to a Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary of Sinclair on the date of the Indenture, in existence at the time such Person becomes a Restricted Subsidiary of Sinclair and not incurred in connection with, or in contemplation of, such Person becoming a Restricted Subsidiary;
(3): any encumbrance or restriction existing under any agreement that extends, renews, refinances or replaces the agreements containing the encumbrances or restrictions in the foregoing clauses (1) and (2), or in this clause (3), provided that the terms and conditions of any such encumbrances or restrictions are not materially less favorable to the holders of the exchange notes than those under or pursuant to the agreement evidencing the Indebtedness so extended, renewed, refinanced or replaced or are not more restrictive than those set forth in the Indenture; and
(4): any encumbrance or restriction created pursuant to an asset sale agreement, stock sale agreement or similar instrument pursuant to which an Asset Sale permitted under "—Limitation on Sale of Assets" is to be consummated, so long as such restriction or encumbrance shall be effective only for a period from the execution and delivery of such agreement or instrument through a termination date not later than 270 days after such execution and delivery. (Section 1018)

Limitation on Unrestricted Subsidiaries. We will not make, and will not permit any of our Restricted Subsidiaries to make, any Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries if, at the time thereof, the aggregate amount of such Investments would exceed the amount of Restricted Payments then permitted to be made pursuant to the "—Limitation on Restricted Payments" covenant. Any Investments in Unrestricted Subsidiaries permitted to be made pursuant to this covenant (1) will be treated as the payment of a Restricted Payment in calculating the amount of Restricted Payments made by Sinclair and (2) may be made in cash or property. (Section 1019)

Provision of Financial Statements. The Indenture provides that, whether or not we are subject to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, we will, to the extent permitted under the Exchange Act, file with the Commission the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which we would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to such Section 13(a) or 15(d) if we were so subject, such documents to be filed with the Commission on or prior to the respective dates (the

"Required Filing Dates") by which we would have been required so to file such documents if we were so subject.

We will also in any event (x) within 15 days of each Required Filing Date (1) transmit by mail to all holders, as their names and addresses appear in the Note register, without cost to such holders and (2) file with the Trustee copies of the annual reports, quarterly reports and other documents which we would have been required to file with the Commission pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act if we were subject to such Sections and (y) if our filing such documents with the Commission is not permitted under the Exchange Act, promptly upon written request and payment of the reasonable cost of duplication and delivery, supply copies of such documents to any prospective holder at our cost.

Additional Covenants. The Indenture also contains covenants with respect to the following matters: (i) payment of principal, premium and interest; (ii) maintenance of an office or agency; (iii) arrangements regarding the handling of money held in trust; (iv) maintenance of corporate existence; (v) payment of taxes and other claims; (vi) maintenance of properties; and (vii) maintenance of insurance.

Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets

Sinclair shall not, in a single transaction or a series of related transactions, consolidate with or merge with or into any other Person or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person or group of affiliated Persons, or permit any of its Subsidiaries to enter into any such transaction or transactions if such transaction or transactions, in the aggregate, would result in a sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Sinclair and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis to any other Person or group of affiliated Persons, unless at the time and after giving effect thereto:

(1): either (a) Sinclair shall be the continuing corporation or (b) the Person (if other than Sinclair) formed by such consolidation or into which Sinclair is merged or the Person which acquires by sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition of all or substantially all of the properties and assets of Sinclair and its Subsidiaries on a Consolidated basis (the "Surviving Entity") shall be a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and such Person assumes, by a supplemental indenture in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of Sinclair under the exchange notes and the Indenture and the registration rights agreement, and the Indenture and the registration rights agreement shall remain in full force and effect;
(2): immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;
(3): immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis, the Consolidated Net Worth of Sinclair (or the Surviving Entity if Sinclair is not the continuing obligor under the Indenture) is equal to or greater than the Consolidated Net Worth of Sinclair immediately prior to such transaction;
(4): immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction on a pro forma basis (on the assumption that the transaction occurred on the first day of the four-quarter period immediately prior to the consummation of such transaction with the appropriate adjustments with respect to the transaction being included in such pro forma calculation), Sinclair (or the Surviving Entity if Sinclair is not the continuing obligor under the Indenture) could incur $1.00 of additional Indebtedness under the provisions of "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Indebtedness" (other than Permitted Indebtedness);

(5): each Guarantor, if any, unless it is the other party to the transactions described above, shall have by supplemental indenture confirmed that its Guarantee shall apply to such Person's obligations under the Indenture and the exchange notes;
(6): if any of the property or assets of Sinclair or any of its Subsidiaries would thereupon become subject to any Lien, the provisions of "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Liens" are complied with; and
(7): Sinclair or the Surviving Entity shall have delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Trustee, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger, transfer, sale, assignment, lease or other transaction and the supplemental indenture in respect thereto comply with the provisions of the Indenture and that all conditions precedent provided for in the Indenture relating to such transaction have been complied with.

Each Guarantor will not, and Sinclair will not permit a Guarantor to, in a single transaction or series of related transactions merge or consolidate with or into any other corporation (other than Sinclair or any other Guarantor) or other entity, or sell, assign, convey, transfer, lease or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its properties and assets on a Consolidated basis to any entity (other than Sinclair or any other Guarantor) unless at the time and giving effect thereto:

(1) either (a) such Guarantor shall be the continuing corporation or (b) the entity (if other than such Guarantor) formed by such consolidation or into which such Guarantor is merged or the entity which acquires by sale, assignment, conveyance, transfer, lease or disposition the properties and assets of such Guarantor shall be a corporation duly organized and validly existing under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia and shall expressly assume by a supplemental indenture, executed and delivered to the Trustee, in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, all the obligations of such Guarantor under the exchange notes and the Indenture and the registration rights agreement;

(2) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; and

The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any transaction (including an Asset Sale made in accordance with "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sale of Assets") with respect to any Guarantor if the Guarantee of such Guarantor is released in connection with such transaction in accordance with paragraph (c) of "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Issuances of Guarantees of and Pledges for Indebtedness." (Section 801)

In the event of any transaction (other than a lease) described in and complying with the conditions listed in the immediately preceding paragraphs in which Sinclair or any Guarantor is not the continuing corporation, the successor Person formed or remaining shall succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, Sinclair or such Guarantor, as the case may be, and Sinclair or such Guarantor, as the case may be, would be discharged from its obligations under the Indenture, the exchange notes or its Guarantee, as the case may be, and the registration rights agreements. (Section 802)

(7): any holder or holders of at least $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness of Sinclair, any Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary after a default under such Indebtedness shall notify the Trustee of the intended sale or disposition of any assets of Sinclair, any Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary that have been pledged to or for the benefit of such holder or holders to secure such Indebtedness or shall commence proceedings, or take any action (including by way of set-off), to retain in satisfaction of such Indebtedness or to collect on, seize, dispose of or apply in satisfaction of Indebtedness, assets of Sinclair or any Restricted Subsidiary (including funds on deposit or held pursuant to lock-box and other similar arrangements);

(e): Sinclair, any Guarantor or any Restricted Subsidiary takes any corporate action in furtherance of any such actions in this paragraph (9). (Section 501)

If an Event of Default (other than as specified in clauses (8) and (9) of the prior paragraph) shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes outstanding may, and the Trustee at the request of such holders shall, declare all unpaid principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest on, all the exchange notes to be due and payable immediately by a notice in writing to us (and to the Trustee if given by the holders of the exchange notes); provided that so long as the Bank Credit Agreement is in effect, such declaration shall not become effective until the earlier of (a) five business days after receipt of such notice of acceleration from the holders or the Trustee by the agent under the Bank Credit Agreement or (b) acceleration of the Indebtedness under the Bank Credit Agreement. Thereupon the Trustee may, at its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce the rights of the holders of exchange notes by appropriate judicial proceeding. If an Event of Default specified in clause (8) or (9) of the prior paragraph occurs and is continuing, then all the exchange notes shall ipso facto become and be immediately due and payable, in an amount equal to the principal amount of the exchange notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date the exchange notes become due and payable, without any declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any holder. The Trustee or, if notice of acceleration is given by the holders of the exchange notes, the holders of the exchange notes shall give notice to the agent under the Bank Credit Agreement of such acceleration.

After a declaration of acceleration, but before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Trustee, the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of exchange notes outstanding, by written notice to us and the Trustee, may rescind and annul such declaration if (a) we have paid or deposited with the Trustee a sum sufficient to pay (1) all sums paid or advanced by the Trustee under the Indenture and the reasonable compensation, expenses,

disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, (2) all overdue interest on all exchange notes, (3) the principal of and premium, if any, on any exchange notes which have become due otherwise than by such declaration of acceleration and interest thereon at a rate borne by the exchange notes and (4) to the extent that payment of such interest is lawful, interest upon overdue interest at the rate borne by the exchange notes; and (b) all Events of Default, other than the non-payment of principal of the exchange notes which have become due solely by such declaration of acceleration, have been cured or waived. (Section 502)

The holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes outstanding may on behalf of the holders of all the exchange notes waive any past default under the Indenture and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or interest on any Note, or in respect of a covenant or provision which under the Indenture cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the holder of each Note outstanding. (Section 513)

We are also required to notify the Trustee within five business days of the occurrence of any Default. (Section 501) We are required to deliver to the Trustee, on or before a date not more than 60 days after the end of each fiscal quarter and not more than 120 days after the end of each fiscal year, a written statement as to compliance with the Indenture, including whether or not any default has occurred. (Section 1021) The Trustee is under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the Indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of the exchange notes unless such holders offer to the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the Trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred thereby. (Section 602)

The Trust Indenture Act contains limitations on the rights of the Trustee, should it become a creditor of Sinclair or any Guarantor, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to realize on certain property received by it in respect of any such claims, as security or otherwise. The Trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions, provided that if it acquires any conflicting interest it must eliminate such conflict upon the occurrence of an Event of Default or else resign.

Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance of the Indenture

Sinclair may, at its option, at any time, elect to have the obligations of Sinclair, each of the Guarantors and any other obligor upon the exchange notes discharged with respect to the outstanding exchange notes ("defeasance"). Such defeasance means that Sinclair, each of the Guarantors and any other obligor under the Indenture shall be deemed to have paid and discharged the entire indebtedness represented by the outstanding exchange notes, except for

(1): the rights of holders of outstanding exchange notes to receive payments in respect of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on such exchange notes when such payments are due,
(2): Sinclair's obligations with respect to the exchange notes concerning issuing temporary exchange notes, registration of exchange notes, mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen exchange notes, and the maintenance of an office or agency for payment and money for security payments held in trust,
(3): the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the Trustee, and
(4): the defeasance provisions of the Indenture. In addition, Sinclair may, at its option and at any time, elect to have the obligations of Sinclair and any Guarantor released with respect to certain covenants that are described in the Indenture ("covenant defeasance") and any omission to comply with such obligations shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default with respect to the exchange notes. In the event covenant defeasance occurs, certain events (not including non-payment, enforceability of any Guarantee, bankruptcy and insolvency

events) described under "—Events of Default" will no longer constitute an Event of Default with respect to the exchange notes. (Sections 401, 402 and 403)

In order to exercise either defeasance or covenant defeasance,

(1): we must irrevocably deposit with the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of the holders of the exchange notes, cash in United States dollars, U.S. Government Obligations (as defined in the Indenture), or a combination thereof, in such amounts as will be sufficient, in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants or a nationally recognized investment banking firm expressed in a written certification thereof delivered to the Trustee, to pay and discharge the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the outstanding exchange notes on the Stated Maturity of such principal or installment of principal or interest (or on any date after March 15, 2007 (such date being referred to as the "Defeasance Redemption Date"), if when exercising either defeasance or covenant defeasance, we have delivered to the Trustee an irrevocable notice to redeem all of the outstanding exchange notes on the Defeasance Redemption Date);
(2): in the case of defeasance, we shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel in the United States stating that (A) we have received from, or there has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (B) since the date of the Indenture, there has been a change in the applicable federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion of independent counsel in the United States shall confirm that, the holders of the outstanding exchange notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such defeasance had not occurred;
(3): in the case of covenant defeasance, we shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel in the United States to the effect that the holders of the outstanding exchange notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for federal income tax purposes as a result of such covenant defeasance and will be subject to federal income tax on the same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such covenant defeasance had not occurred;
(4): no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on the date of such deposit or insofar as clause (8) or (9) under the first paragraph under "—Events of Default" are concerned, at any time during the period ending on the 91st day after the date of deposit;
(5): such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not cause the Trustee for the exchange notes to have a conflicting interest with respect to any securities of Sinclair or any Guarantor;
(6): such defeasance or covenant defeasance shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a Default under, the Indenture or any other material agreement or instrument to which we or any Guarantor is a party or by which it is bound;
(7): we shall have delivered to the Trustee an opinion of independent counsel to the effect that (A) the trust funds will not be subject to any rights of holders of Senior Indebtedness or Guarantor Senior Indebtedness, including, without limitation, those arising under the Indenture and (B) after the 91st day following the deposit, the trust funds will not be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally;
(8): we shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate stating that the deposit was not made by us with the intent of preferring the holders of the exchange notes or any Guarantee

over the other creditors of Sinclair or any Guarantor with the intent of defeating, hindering, delaying or defrauding creditors of Sinclair, any Guarantor or others;

(9): no event or condition shall exist that would prevent us from making payments of the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the exchange notes on the date of such deposit or at any time ending on the 91st day after the date of such deposit; and
(10): we shall have delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate and an opinion of independent counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent provided for relating to either the defeasance or the covenant defeasance, as the case may be, have been complied with. (Section 404)

Satisfaction and Discharge

The Indenture will cease to be of further effect (except as to surviving rights of registration of transfer or exchange of exchange notes, as expressly provided for in the Indenture) as to all outstanding exchange notes when

(a)

either

(1): all the exchange notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (except lost, stolen or destroyed exchange notes which have been replaced or paid) have been delivered to the Trustee for cancellation or
(2): all exchange notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation (a) have become due and payable, or (b) will become due and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or (c) are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the name, and at the expense, of Sinclair and Sinclair or any Guarantor has irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited with the Trustee funds in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on the exchange notes not theretofore delivered to the Trustee for cancellation, including principal of, premium, if any, and accrued interest at such Stated Maturity or redemption date;

(b)

Sinclair or any Guarantor has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable under the Indenture relating to the exchange notes by Sinclair or any Guarantor; and

(c)

Sinclair has delivered to the Trustee an officers' certificate and an opinion of counsel stating that (1) all conditions precedent under the Indenture relating to the satisfaction and discharge of the Indenture relating to the exchange notes have been complied with and (2) such satisfaction and discharge will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, the Indenture relating to the exchange notes or any other material agreement or instrument to which Sinclair or any Guarantor is a party or by which Sinclair or any Guarantor is bound. (Section 1301)

Modifications and Amendments

Modifications and amendments of the Indenture relating to the exchange notes may be made by Sinclair, any Guarantor and the Trustee with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding exchange notes; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holder of each outstanding Note affected thereby:

(1): change the Stated Maturity of the principal of, or any installment of interest on, any Note or reduce the principal amount thereof or the rate of interest thereon or any premium payable upon the redemption thereof, or change the coin or currency in which the principal of any

Note or any premium or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment after the Stated Maturity thereof (or in the case of redemption, on or after the redemption date) (other than provisions relating to the covenants set forth under "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sale of Assets);

(2): amend, change or modify the obligation of Sinclair to make and consummate a Change of Control Offer in the event of a Change of Control in accordance with "—Certain Covenants—Purchase of Exchange Notes Upon a Change of Control," including amending, changing or modifying any definitions with respect thereto;
(3): reduce the percentage in principal amount of outstanding exchange notes, the consent of whose holders is required for any supplemental indenture, or the consent of whose holders is required for any waiver or compliance with certain provisions of the Indenture or certain defaults or with respect to any Guarantee;
(4): modify any of the provisions relating to supplemental indentures requiring the consent of holders or relating to the waiver of past defaults or relating to the waiver of certain covenants, except to increase the percentage of outstanding exchange notes required for such actions or to provide that certain other provisions of the Indenture relating to the exchange notes cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the holder of each Note affected thereby;
(5): except as otherwise permitted under "—Consolidation, Merger, Sale of Assets," consent to the assignment or transfer by Sinclair or any Guarantor of any of its rights and obligations under the Indenture; or
(6): amend or modify any of the provisions of the Indenture relating to the subordination of the exchange notes or any Guarantee in any manner adverse to the holders of the exchange notes or any Guarantee;

provided further, that no such modification or amendment may, without the consent of the holders of 66²/3% of the outstanding exchange notes affected thereby, amend, change or modify the obligation of Sinclair to make and consummate an Offer with respect to any Asset Sale or Asset Sales in accordance with "—Certain Covenants—Limitation on Sale of Assets" including amending, changing or modifying any definitions with respect thereto. (Section 902)

Without the consent of any holders, Sinclair and the Guarantors, when authorized by a resolution of the board of directors, and the Trustee, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more supplemental indentures or agreements, or other instruments with respect to any Guarantee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, for any of the following purposes:

(1): to evidence the succession of another Person to Sinclair, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the exchange notes, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of Sinclair or such Guarantor or obligor under the Indenture and in the exchange notes and in any Guarantee, in each case in compliance with the provisions of the Indenture,
(2): to add to the covenants of Sinclair, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the exchange notes for the benefit of the holders, or to surrender any right or power conferred in the Indenture upon Sinclair, any Guarantor or any other obligor upon the exchange notes, as applicable, in the Indenture, in the exchange notes or in any Guarantee,
(3): to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in the Indenture which may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision in the Indenture or in any Guarantee, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under the Indenture, the exchange notes or any Guarantee; provided that, in each case, such provisions shall not adversely affect the interests of the holders,

(8): to provide for uncertificated exchange notes in place of or in addition to certificated exchange notes. The holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes outstanding may waive compliance with certain restrictive covenants and provisions of the Indenture relating to the exchange notes. (Section 1022)

Governing Law

The Indenture, the exchange notes and the Guarantees will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

Payment and Paying Agent

Payments in respect of the exchange notes shall be made to The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"), which shall credit the relevant accounts at DTC on the applicable payment dates or, if the exchange notes are not held by DTC, such payments shall be made at the office or agency of the Paying Agent maintained for such purpose, or at our option, by check mailed to the address of the holder entitled thereto as such address shall appear on the Notes Register. The Paying Agent shall initially be Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly First Union National Bank). The Paying Agent shall be permitted to resign as Paying Agent upon 30 days' written notice to us. In the event that Wachovia Bank, National Association chooses no longer to be the Paying Agent, we shall appoint a successor (which shall be a bank or trust company) acceptable to us to act as Paying Agent.

Registrar and Transfer Agent

Wachovia Bank, National Association (formerly First Union National Bank) will act as registrar and transfer agent for the exchange notes (the "Notes Registrar").

As described under "—Book-Entry Securities; The Depository Trust Company; Delivery and Form," so long as the exchange notes are in book-entry form, registration of transfers and exchanges of exchange notes will be made through Direct Participants and Indirect Participants in DTC. If physical certificates representing the exchange notes are issued, registration of transfers and exchanges of exchange notes will be effected without charge by or on behalf of Sinclair, but, in the case of a transfer, upon payment (with the giving of such indemnity as Sinclair may require) in respect of any tax or other governmental charges which may be imposed in relation to it.

Sinclair will not be required to register or cause to be registered any transfer of exchange notes during a period beginning 15 days prior to the mailing of notice of redemption of exchange notes and ending on the day of such mailing.

Book Entry Securities; The Depository Trust Company; Delivery and Form

Exchange notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without interest coupons, in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. Exchange notes will not be issued in bearer form.

Exchange of Book-Entry Notes for Certificated Notes

A beneficial interest in a global mote may not be exchanged for a note in certificated form unless

(1): DTC (a) notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to continue as Depositary for the global note or (b) has ceased to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and in either case we thereupon fail to appoint a successor Depositary within 90 days,
(2): we, at our option, notify the Trustee in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of the exchange notes in certificated form or
(3): there shall have occurred and be continuing an Event of Default or any event which after notice or lapse of time or both would be an Event of Default with respect to the exchange notes.

In all cases, certificated notes delivered in exchange for any global note or beneficial interests therein will be registered in the names, and issued in any approved denominations, requested by or on behalf of the Depositary (in accordance with its customary procedures). Any certificated note issued in exchange for an interest in a global note will bear the legend restricting transfers that is borne by such global note. Any such exchange will be effected through the DTC Deposit/Withdraw at Custodian system and an appropriate adjustment will be made in the records of the Security Registrar to reflect a decrease in the principal amount of the relevant global note.

Certain Book-Entry Procedures for Global Notes

The descriptions of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream that follow are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to change by them from time to time. We take no responsibility for these operations and procedures and urges investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised us that it is:

•: a limited purpose trust company organized under the laws of the State of New York,
•: a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law,
•: a member of the Federal Reserve System,
•: a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code and a "Clearing Agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Exchange Act.

DTC was created to hold securities for its participants ("participants") and facilitate the clearance and settlement of securities transactions between participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its participants, thereby eliminating the need for physical transfer and delivery of certificates. Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies and clearing corporations and may include certain other organizations. Indirect access to the DTC system is available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a participant, either directly or indirectly ("indirect participants").

DTC has advised us that its current practice, upon the issuance of each global note, is to credit, on its internal system, the respective principal amount of the individual beneficial interests represented by

such global note to the accounts with DTC of the participants through which such interests are to be held. Ownership of beneficial interest in the global notes will be shown on, and the transfer of that ownership will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC or its nominees (with respect to interest of participants) and the records of participants and indirect participants (with respect to interests of persons other than participants).

As long as DTC, or its nominee, is the registered Holder of a global note, DTC or such nominee, as the case may be, will be considered the sole owner and holder of the exchange notes represented by such global note for all purposes under the indenture and the exchange notes. Except in the limited circumstances described above under "—Exchanges of Book-Entry Notes for Certificated Notes," owners of beneficial interests in a global note will not be entitled to have any portions of such global note registered in their names, and will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of exchange notes in definitive form and will not be considered the owners or holders of the global note (or any exchange notes represented thereby) under the indenture or the exchange notes. All interests in a global note, including those held through Euroclear or Clearstream, will be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC. Those interests held through Euroclear or Clearstream will also be subject to the procedures and requirements of such system.

The laws of some states require that certain persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a global note to such persons may be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on behalf of its participants, which in turn act on behalf of indirect participants and certain banks, the ability of a person having beneficial interests in a global note to pledge such interest to persons or entities that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests. Payments of the principal, of, premium, if any, and interest on global notes will be made to DTC or its nominee as the registered owner thereof. Neither Sinclair, the Trustee nor any of their respective agents will have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interest in the global notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership interests.

We expect that DTC or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of principal of, premium, if any, or interest in respect of a global note representing any exchange notes held by it or its nominee, will credit participants' accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in the principal amount of such global note for such exchange notes as shown on the records of DTC or its nominee. We also expect that payments by participants to owners of beneficial interests in such global note held through such participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held for the accounts of customers registered in "street name." Such payments will be the responsibility of such participants. None of Sinclair or the Trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of its participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the exchange notes, and Sinclair and the Trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee as the registered owner of the exchange notes for all purposes.

Except for trades involving only Euroclear and Clearstream participants, interests in the global notes will trade in DTC's Same-Day Funds Settlement System and secondary market trading activity in such interests will therefore settle in immediately available funds, subject in all cases to the rules and procedures of DTC and its participants. Transfers between participants in DTC will be effected in accordance with DTC's procedures, and will be settled in same-day funds. Transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be affected in the ordinary way in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

Subject to compliance with the transfer and exchange restrictions applicable to the exchange notes described elsewhere herein, cross-market transfers between DTC participants, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected by DTC in accordance with DTC's rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by its respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interest in the relevant global note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures or same-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

Because of time zone differences, the securities account of a Euroclear or Clearstream participant purchasing an interest in a global note from a DTC participant will be credited, and any such crediting will be reported to the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream participant, during the securities settlement processing day (which must be a business day for Euroclear and Clearstream) immediately following the DTC settlement date. Cash received in Euroclear or Clearstream as a result of sales of interests in a global note by or through a Euroclear or Clearstream participant to a DTC participant will be received with value on the DTC settlement date but will be available in the relevant Euroclear or Clearstream cash account only as of the business day for Euroclear or Clearstream following the DTC settlement date.

DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of exchange notes only at the direction of one or more participants to whose accounts with DTC interests in the global notes are credited and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the exchange notes as to which such participant or participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an Event of Default under the exchange notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the global notes for exchange notes in certificated form, and to distribute such exchange notes to its participants.

Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures in order to facilitate transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the global notes among participants of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or continue to perform such procedures, and such procedures may be discontinued at any time. None of Sinclair, the Trustee nor any of their respective agents will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear, Clearstream or their participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations, including maintaining, supervising or reviewing the records relating to or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in global notes.

DESCRIPTION OF THE ORIGINAL NOTES

The terms of the original notes are identical in all material respects to those of the exchange notes, except that (1) the original notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, are subject to certain restrictions on transfer and are entitled to certain rights under the registration rights agreements (which rights will terminate upon consummation of the exchange offer, except under limited circumstances); and (2) the exchange notes will not provide for any additional interest as a result of our failure to fulfill certain registration obligations. Certain relevant terms of the registration rights agreements are described more fully below.

In the event that (1) due to a change in applicable law or current interpretations by the Commission, Sinclair and the guarantors are not permitted to effect the exchange offer for all of the notes, (2) the exchange offer is not for any other reason consummated by December 25, 2003, (3) any holder of the notes shall, within 30 days after consummation of the exchange offer, notify Sinclair and the guarantors that the holder (x) is prohibited by applicable law or SEC policy from participating in the exchange offer, (y) may not resell exchange notes acquired by it in the exchange offer to the public without delivering a prospectus and that the prospectus contained in the exchange offer registration statement is not appropriate or available for resales by that holder or (z) is a broker-dealer and holds notes acquired directly from Sinclair and the guarantors or an "affiliate" of Sinclair or any guarantor, or (4) at the request of either of the initial purchasers, then in addition to or in lieu of conducting the exchange offer, we will be required to file a registration statement (a "shelf registration statement") covering resales (a) by the holders of the notes in the event we are not permitted to effect the exchange offer pursuant to the foregoing clause (1) or the exchange offer is not consummated by December 25, 2003 pursuant to the foregoing clause (1) or (2) or (b) by the holders of notes with respect to which we receive notice pursuant to the foregoing clauses (3) or (4), and will use our best efforts to cause any such shelf registration statement to become effective and to keep such shelf registration statement continuously effective for two years from the effective date thereof or such shorter period that will terminate when all of the securities covered by the shelf registration statement have been sold pursuant to the shelf registration statement. We shall, if we file a shelf registration statement, provide to each holder of the notes copies of the related prospectus and notify each such holder when the shelf registration statement has become effective. A holder that sells notes pursuant to a shelf registration statement generally will be required to be named as a selling securityholder in the related prospectus and to deliver a current prospectus to purchasers, and will be subject to certain of the civil liability provisions under the Securities Act in connection with such sales.

Under the registration rights agreements, we have agreed to use our best efforts to: (1) file the exchange offer registration statement or a shelf registration statement with the Commission as soon as practicable after the date of the indenture or notice from holders in the event of clauses (3) or (4) of the prior paragraph, (2) have such exchange offer registration statement or shelf registration statement declared effective by the Commission as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, and (3) commence the exchange offer and issue the exchange notes in exchange for all notes validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the exchange offer prior to the close of the exchange offer, or, in addition or in the alternative, cause such shelf registration statement to remain continuously effective for two years from the effective date thereof or such shorter period that will terminate when all of the notes covered by the shelf registration statement have been sold pursuant to the shelf registration statement. Although we intend to file an exchange offer registration statement and, if applicable, a shelf registration statement as described above, there can be no assurance that any such registration statement will be filed or, if filed, that it will become effective with respect to each of the notes. Each holder of the notes, by virtue of becoming a holder, will be bound by the provisions of the registration rights agreements that may require the holder to furnish notice or other information to us as a condition to certain of our obligations to file a shelf registration statement by a particular date or to maintain its effectiveness for the prescribed two-year period.

If we fail to comply with the above provisions, we and the guarantors hereby jointly and severally agree to pay liquidated damages to each holder of notes or exchange notes that are subject to transfer restrictions as follows:

(1): if an exchange offer registration statement (or, in the event of a change in applicable law or due to current interpretations by the Commission, we are not permitted to effect the exchange offer, a shelf registration statement) is not filed by September 26, 2003, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the first 90 days starting on September 27, 2003 and increasing by an additional .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period;
(2): if an exchange offer registration statement or shelf registration statement is not declared effective by November 25, 2003, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the first 90 days starting November 26, 2003 and increasing by .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period; and
(3): if we have not exchanged exchange notes for all original notes validly tendered prior to December 25, 2003 or, if applicable, a shelf registration statement has been declared effective and such shelf registration statement ceases to be effective prior to two years from its original effective date or such shorter period that will terminate when all of the exchange notes covered by the shelf registration statement have been sold pursuant to the shelf registration statement, additional interest will become payable on the original notes at the rate of .50% per annum for the first 90 days starting December 26, 2003 and increasing by .25% per annum at the beginning of each subsequent 90-day period.

The foregoing summary of certain provisions of the registration rights agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the registration rights agreement. Copies of the registration rights agreement are available from us or the initial purchasers upon request.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES

The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences, and in the case of a holder that is a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below), certain federal estate tax consequences, (a) expected to result to holders whose original notes are exchanged for exchange notes in this exchange offer and (b) relevant to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of the exchange notes by persons who hold the notes as a capital asset within the meaning of section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (generally, property held for investment). This summary does not consider state, local or foreign tax laws. In addition, it does not include all of the rules which may affect the U.S. tax treatment of your investment in the notes. For example, special rules not discussed herein may apply to you if you are:

•: a broker-dealer or a dealer in securities or currencies;
•: an S corporation;
•: a bank, thrift or other financial institution;
•: a regulated investment company or a real estate investment trust;
•: an insurance company;
•: a tax-exempt organization;
•: subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Internal Revenue Code;
•: holding the notes as a part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other risk reduction or constructive sale transaction;
•: holding the notes through a partnership or similar pass-through entity;
•: a person with a "functional currency" other than the U.S. dollar; or

•: a U.S. expatriate.

The summary is based on the following materials, all as in effect on the date hereof:

•: the Internal Revenue Code;
•: the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code, including temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations;
•: court decisions; and
•: administrative interpretations and practices of the Internal Revenue Service.

Legislation, judicial decisions, or administrative changes may be forthcoming that could affect the accuracy of the statements included in this summary, possibly on a retroactive basis. We have not requested, and do not plan to request, any ruling from the Internal Revenue Service concerning the tax consequences of the exchange of the original notes for the exchange notes or the purchase, ownership or disposition of the exchange notes. The statements set forth below are not binding on the Internal Revenue Service or any court. Thus, we can provide no assurance that the statements set forth below will not be challenged by the Internal Revenue Service, or that they would be sustained by a court if they were so challenged.

We urge you to consult your own tax advisor concerning the tax consequences to you of the exchange of the original notes for the exchange notes and of holding and disposing of the exchange notes, including the U.S. federal, state, local, foreign and other tax consequences and potential changes in the tax laws.

In addition, if we decide to create a modified holding company structure as described above in "Recent Developments—Potential Creation of Modified Holding Company Structure," STG rather than Sinclair will become the primary obligor on the notes. We believe that the transfer of assets to, and the assumption of the notes by, STG will be effected in a manner such that the change in obligor will not result in a deemed exchange of the notes for "new" notes for federal income tax purposes. If the assumption of the notes by STG were to result in such an exchange for federal income tax purposes, the tax consequences to you would depend on the facts relating to the transaction and your own individual circumstances. You should consult your tax advisor regarding the tax consequences that would apply in such a case. The remainder of this summary assumes that any assumption of the notes by STG will not result in such an exchange of the notes for federal income tax purposes.

Tax Consequences of the Exchange of Original Notes for Exchange Notes

The exchange of the original notes for the exchange notes in the exchange offer will not be treated as an "exchange" for federal income tax purposes because the exchange notes will not be considered to differ materially in kind or extent from the original notes. Accordingly, the exchange of original notes for exchange notes will not be a taxable event to holders for federal income tax purposes. Each exchange note will have the same tax attributes as the original note exchanged therefor, including the same issue price, adjusted issue price, adjusted tax basis and holding period. References below to "notes" apply equally to the exchange notes and the original notes.

Consequences to U.S. Holders

If you are a "U.S. Holder", as defined below, this section applies to you and summarizes certain U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of the notes. Otherwise, the next section, "Non- U.S. Holders", applies to you. You are a "U.S. Holder" if you hold notes and you are:

•: a citizen or resident of the U.S.;

•: a corporation or other entity taxable as a corporation created or organized in or under the law of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia;
•: an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or
•: a trust if either (i) a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) the trust was in existence on August 20, 1996, was treated as a U.S. person on that date and has elected to be treated as a U.S. person at all times thereafter.

If a partnership or other entity taxable as a partnership holds notes, the tax treatment of a partner in that partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partners in a partnership that holds notes should consult their own tax advisors concerning the particular tax consequences to them.

Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest

A portion of the purchase price of each original note upon initial issuance was attributable to interest that had accrued prior to the issue date of the original notes. We believe that a portion of the first interest payment equal to such amount should be treated as a return of the pre-issuance accrued interest to an initial holder of each note, rather than as interest payable on the note. If this position is respected, as will be assumed for purposes of the remainder of this summary, each initial holder's basis in the note would exclude the pre-issuance accrued interest and our payment of such amount would not be treated as taxable income to such an initial holder. Initial holders should consult their own tax advisors concerning the tax treatment of the pre-issuance accrued interest.

Payments of Interest

A U.S. Holder must generally include the interest on the notes in ordinary income:

•: when it accrues, if the U.S. Holder uses the accrual method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or
•: when the U.S. Holder receives it, if the U.S. Holder uses the cash method of accounting for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Market Discount

If a U.S. Holder acquires, after the original issue of the original notes, a note at a cost (excluding any amount attributable to previously accrued stated interest) that is less than the note's stated redemption price at maturity, the amount of such difference is treated as "market discount" for federal income tax purposes, unless such difference is less than .0025 multiplied by the stated redemption price at maturity multiplied by the number of complete years to maturity from the date of acquisition.

Under the market discount rules of the Internal Revenue Code, you are required to treat any gain on the sale, exchange, retirement or other disposition of a note as ordinary income to the extent of the accrued market discount that has not previously been included in income. If you dispose of a note with market discount in certain otherwise nontaxable transactions, you may be required to include accrued market discount as ordinary income as if you had sold the note at its then fair market value.

In general, the amount of market discount that has accrued is determined on a ratable basis. A U.S. Holder may, however, elect to determine the amount of accrued market discount on a constant yield to maturity basis. This election is made on a note-by-note basis and is irrevocable.

With respect to notes with market discount, you may not be allowed to deduct immediately a portion of the interest expense on any indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or to carry the notes. A U.S. Holder may elect to include market discount in income currently as it accrues, in which case the interest deferral rule set forth in the preceding sentence will not apply. This election will apply to all debt instruments that a U.S. Holder acquires on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies and is irrevocable without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in a note will be increased by the amount of market discount included in the holder's income under the election.

Amortizable Bond Premium

If you purchase a note for an amount (excluding any amount attributable to previously accrued stated interest) that exceeds the note's stated redemption price at maturity, you will generally be considered to have purchased the note with "amortizable bond premium" equal in amount to the excess. You may elect to amortize the bond premium over the term of the notes on a constant yield method as an offset to interest includible in income under your regular accounting method. In such case, your tax basis in your notes will be reduced by the amount of the allowable amortization. However, because of our rights to optionally redeem the notes during the period beginning on March 15, 2007 and ending on March 14, 2010 (see "Description of the Exchange Notes—Optional Redemption"), special rules apply that may result in the deferral of amortization of some of the bond premium based on the assumption that we will exercise our redemption rights so as to maximize the yield to the holders of notes. If such optional redemption rights expire unexercised, bond premium will generally be recalculated. If you elect to amortize bond premium, you should consult with your own tax advisor concerning the manner in which the bond premium will be amortized.

An election to amortize premium on a constant yield method will apply to all debt obligations held or subsequently acquired by you on or after the first day of the first taxable year to which the election applies. You may not revoke the election without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisor before making this election.

Constant Yield Election

As an alternative to the above-described rules for including interest payments and market discount in income and amortizing bond premium, you may elect to include in gross income all interest that accrues on a note, including stated interest, market discount and adjustments for bond premium, on the constant yield method. If such an election were made, you would be deemed to have made an election to amortize bond premium, which as discussed above applies to all debt instruments held or subsequently acquired by you. Particularly for U.S. Holders who are on the cash method of accounting, a constant yield election may have the effect of causing you to include interest in income earlier than would be the case if no such election were made, and the election may not be revoked without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service. You should consult your own tax advisor before making this election.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of the Notes

A U.S. Holder must recognize taxable gain or loss on the sale, exchange, redemption, retirement or other taxable disposition of a note. The amount of the gain or loss equals the difference between the amount received for the note (in cash or other property, valued at fair market value), minus the amount, if any, attributable to accrued but unpaid interest on the note, minus the U.S. Holder's adjusted tax basis in the note. In the absence of a constant yield election, a U.S. Holder's tax basis in a note will generally equal the price paid for the note (excluding any amount attributable to previously accrued stated interest), increased by market discount that is included in income in respect of the note

and reduced by any amortizable bond premium in respect of the note which has been taken into account.

A U.S. Holder's gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss except as described under "Market Discount" above. The capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder has held the notes for more than one year. Otherwise, it will be short-term capital gain or loss. Payments attributable to accrued but unpaid interest which have not yet been included in income will generally be taxed as ordinary interest income. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

Information reporting and backup withholding may apply to payments of principal and interest on a note or the proceeds from the sale or other disposition of a note with respect to certain noncorporate U.S. Holders. Such U.S. Holders generally will be subject to backup withholding unless the U.S. Holder provides to the payor a correct taxpayer identification number and certain other information, certified under penalties of perjury, or otherwise establishes an exemption. Any amount withheld under the backup withholding rules may be credited against the U.S. Holder's federal income tax liability and any excess may be refunded if the proper information is provided to the Internal Revenue Service.

Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders

As used herein, a "Non-U.S. Holder" is a person or entity that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is not a U.S. Holder.

An individual may, subject to exceptions, be deemed to be a resident alien, as opposed to a non-resident alien, by among other ways being present in the United States:

•: on at least 31 days in the calendar year, and
•: for an aggregate of at least 183 days during a three-year period ending in the current calendar year, counting for such purposes all of the days present in the current year, one-third of the days present in the immediately preceding year, and one-sixth of the days present in the second preceding year.

Resident aliens are subject to United States federal income tax as if they were United States citizens.

Payments of Interest

If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, interest paid to you will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes or withholding taxes if the interest is not effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business within the U.S. and you:

•: do not actually or constructively own a 10% or greater interest in our capital or profits;
•: are not a controlled foreign corporation with respect to which we are a "related person" within the meaning of section 864(d)(4) of the Internal Revenue Code;
•: are not a bank receiving interest pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary course of your trade or business; and
•: you provide appropriate certification.

You can generally meet the certification requirement by providing a properly executed Form W-8BEN or appropriate substitute form to us, or our paying agent. If you hold the notes through a financial institution or other agent acting on your behalf, you may be required to provide appropriate

documentation to your agent. Your agent will then generally be required to provide appropriate certifications to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries. Special certification rules apply to foreign partnerships, estates, and trusts, and in certain circumstances certifications as to the foreign status of partners, trust owners, or beneficiaries may have to be provided to us or our paying agent.

If you do not qualify for an exemption under these rules, interest income from the notes may be subject to withholding tax at the rate of 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) at the time it is paid. The payment of interest effectively connected with your U.S. trade or business, however, would not be subject to a 30% withholding tax if you provide us or our agent an adequate certification (currently on Form W-8ECI), but such interest would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net basis at the rates applicable to U.S. Holders. In addition, if you are a foreign corporation and the payment of interest is effectively connected with your U.S. trade or business, you may also be subject to a 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) branch profits tax.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Notes

If you are a Non-U.S. Holder, you generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on any amount which constitutes capital gain upon retirement or disposition of a note, unless:

•: your investment in the note is effectively connected with your conduct of a U.S. trade or business; or
•: you are a nonresident alien individual and are present in the U.S. for 183 or more days in the taxable year within which such sale or other taxable disposition takes place and certain other requirements are met.

If you have a U.S. trade or business and your investment in a note is effectively connected with that trade or business, the payment of the sale proceeds with respect to the note would be subject to U.S. federal income tax on a net income basis at the rate applicable to U.S. Holders. In addition, a foreign corporation may be subject to a 30% (or lower applicable treaty rate) branch profits tax if its investment in the note is effectively connected with the foreign corporation's U.S. trade or business.

U.S. Federal Estate Tax

The U.S. federal estate tax will not apply to notes owned by you at the time of your death, provided that (a) you do not own actually or constructively (within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code and the Treasury Regulations) 10% or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of our voting stock and (b) interest on the notes would not have been, if received at the time of your death, effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States.

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

No backup withholding or information reporting will generally be required with respect to interest paid to a Non-U.S. Holder of notes if the beneficial owner of the note provides the certification described above in "Non-U.S. Holders—Payments of Interest" or is an exempt recipient and, in each case, the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the beneficial owner is a U.S. Holder.

Information reporting requirements and backup withholding generally will not apply to any payments of the proceeds of the sale of a note effected outside the U.S. by a foreign office of a foreign broker (as defined in applicable Treasury Regulations). However, unless the foreign office of a broker has documentary evidence in its records that the beneficial owner is a Non-U.S. Holder and certain other conditions are met, or the beneficial owner otherwise establishes an exemption, information

reporting (but not backup withholding) will apply to any payment of the proceeds of the sale of a note effected outside the U.S. by such a broker if it:

•: is a U.S. person, as defined in the Internal Revenue Code;
•: derives 50% or more of its gross income for certain periods from the conduct of a trade or business in the U.S.;
•: is a controlled foreign corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes; or
•: is a foreign partnership that, at any time during its taxable year, has 50% or more of its income or capital interests owned by U.S. persons or is engaged in the conduct of a U.S. trade or business.

Payments of the proceeds of any sale of a note effected by the U.S. office of a broker will be subject to information reporting and backup withholding requirements, unless the beneficial owner of the note provides the certification described above in "Non-U.S. Holders—Payments of Interest" or otherwise establishes an exemption.

If you are a Non-U.S. Holder of notes, you should consult your tax advisor regarding the application of information reporting and backup withholding in your particular situation, the availability of an exemption therefrom and the procedures for obtaining the exemption, if available. Any amounts withheld from payment to you under the backup withholding rules will be allowed as a refund or credit against your federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is furnished to the Internal Revenue Service.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in connection with the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by such broker-dealers during the period referred to below in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for original notes if such original notes were acquired by such broker-dealers for their own accounts as a result of marketing-making activities or other trading activities. We have agreed that this prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by such broker-dealers in connection with resales of such exchange notes for a period ending 180 days after the expiration date of the applicable exchange offer, or, if earlier, when all such exchange notes of the series subject to such exchange offer have been disposed of by such broker-dealers.

We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance of exchange notes in the exchange offer or from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers. Exchange notes received by broker-dealers for their own accounts may be sold from time to time in one or more transactions in the over-the-counter market, in negotiated transactions, through the writing of options on the exchange notes or a combination of such methods of resale, at market prices prevailing at the time of resale at prices related to such prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. Any such resale may be made directly to purchasers or to or through brokers or dealers who may receive compensation in the form of commissions or concessions from any such broker-dealer and/or the purchasers of any such exchange notes. Any broker-dealer that resells exchange notes that were received by it for its own account in connection with the exchange offers and any broker or dealer that participates in a distribution of such exchange notes may be deemed to be an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any profit on any such resale of exchange notes may be deemed to be underwriting compensation under the Securities Act. The letter of transmittal states that by acknowledging that it will deliver and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an "underwriter" within the meaning of the Securities Act.

ITEM 20. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

The Articles of Amendment and Restatement and By-Laws of Sinclair state that Sinclair shall indemnify, and advance expenses to, its directors and officers whether serving Sinclair or at the request of another entity to the fullest extent permitted by and in accordance with Section 2-418 of the Maryland General Corporation Law. Section 2-418 contains certain provisions which establish that a Maryland corporation may indemnify any director or officer made party to any proceeding by reason of service in that capacity, against judgments, penalties, fines, settlements and reasonable expenses actually incurred by the director or officer in connection with such proceeding unless it is established that the director's or officer's act or omission was material to the matter giving rise to the proceeding and the director or officer (i) acted in bad faith or with active and deliberate dishonesty; (ii) actually received an improper personal benefit in money, property or services; or (iii) in the case of a criminal proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his act was unlawful. However, if the proceeding was one by or in the right of the corporation, indemnification may not be made if the director or officer is adjudged to be liable to the corporation. The statute also provides for indemnification of directors and officers by court order.

Section 12 of Article II of the Amended By-Laws of Sinclair provides as follows:

A director shall perform his duties as a director, including his duties as a member of any Committee of the Board upon which he may serve, in good faith, in a manner he reasonably believes to be in the best interests of Sinclair, and with such care as an ordinarily prudent person in a like position would use under similar circumstances. In performing his duties, a director shall be entitled to rely on information, opinions, reports, or statements, including financial statements and other financial data, in each case prepared or presented by:

(a): one or more officers or employees of Sinclair whom the director reasonably believes to be reliable and competent in the matters presented;
(b): counsel, certified public accountants, or other persons as to matters which the director reasonably believes to be within such person's professional or expert competence; or
(c): a Committee of the Board upon which he does not serve, duly designated in accordance with a provision of the Articles of Incorporation or the By-Laws, as to matters within its designated authority, which Committee the director reasonably believes to merit confidence.

A director shall not be considered to be acting in good faith if he has knowledge concerning the matter in question that would cause such reliance described above to be unwarranted. A person who performs his duties in compliance with this Section shall have no liability by reason of being or having been a director of Sinclair.

Sinclair has also entered into indemnification agreements with certain officers and directors which provide that Sinclair shall indemnify and advance expenses to such officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in effect on the date of the agreement, and to such greater extent as applicable law may thereafter from time to time permit. Such agreements provide for the advancement of expenses (subject to reimbursement if it is ultimately determined that the officer or director is not entitled to indemnification) prior to the disposition of any claim or proceeding.

ITEM 22. UNDERTAKINGS.

Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes:

(1)

To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(a): To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act");
(b): To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement;
(c): To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(a) and (1)(b) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

(2): That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3): To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the notes being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the

II-2

question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Items 4, 10(b), 11, or 13 of this Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of the registration statement through the date of responding to the request.

Each of the undersigned registrants hereby undertakes to supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning a transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in the registration statement when it became effective.
