    NEWS RELEASE Gray Closes Hoak Acquisition and Completes Refinancing of its Senior Credit Facility Atlanta, Georgia – June 13, 2014. Gray Television, Inc. (“Gray,” “we,” “us” or “our”) (NYSE: GTN and GTN.A) today announced that it completed a series of transactions (the “Hoak Acquisition”) that resulted in Gray acquiring 12 television stations and programming of three additional television stations from Hoak Media, LLC (“Hoak”) and Parker Broadcasting, Inc. (“Parker”). In addition, Gray completed the refinancing of its senior credit facility, which now consists of a seven-year $525 million term loan facility and a five-year $50 million revolving credit facility. The proceeds from the term loan were used primarily to complete the Hoak Acquisition for approximately $306 million including working capital adjustments and to refinance $159 million outstanding under our previously existing term loan, pay transaction fees and expenses, and for other general corporate purposes. We did not draw any amounts under the refinanced revolving credit facility. The Hoak Acquisition significantly expanded Gray’s growing portfolio of market-leading owned and/or operated television stations with the acquisition of the following television stations: MARKET STATION AFFILIATION MARKET RANK KSFY ABC Sioux Falls, SD 111 KABY* ABC Sioux Falls, SD 111 KPRY* ABC Sioux Falls, SD 111 KVLY NBC Fargo-Valley City, ND 116 KNOE CBS Monroe- El Dorado, LA 137 KFYR NBC Minot-Bismarck-Dickinson, ND 145 KMOT* NBC Minot-Bismarck-Dickinson, ND 145 KUMV* NBC Minot-Bismarck-Dickinson, ND 145 KQCD* NBC Minot-Bismarck-Dickinson, ND 145 KALB NBC/CBS Alexandria, LA 179 KNOP NBC North Platte, NE 208 KIIT-LP FOX North Platte, NE 208 * satellite station When announcing the Hoak Acquisition on November 20, 2013, Gray reported that Excalibur Broadcasting, LLC (“Excalibur”) would acquire five television stations in existing or future Gray markets from Hoak, Parker, and Prime Cities Broadcasting, Inc.

  • Testimony of Michael W. Palkovic Executive Vice President, Services & Operations on “The Satellite Television Law: Repeal
    Testimony of Michael W. Palkovic Executive Vice President, Services & Operations On “The Satellite Television Law: Repeal, Reauthorize, or Revise?” Before the House of Representatives Committee on Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Communications and Technology June 12, 2013 Good Morning, Chairman Walden, Ranking Member Eshoo, and members of the Subcommittee, I appreciate the opportunity to testify today. My name is Mike Palkovic, and I am the Executive Vice President of Services and Operations of DIRECTV. The summer of 2013 is here. Americans are heading out on vacation, weekend getaways, and family gatherings. They will bring with them grills, refreshments, sunblock, and summer reading. They will also bring their favorite television shows and movies. Today, consumers demand the programming they want, when they want it, where they want it, on the device of their choosing, and at prices they can afford. For the most part, they get it. The very idea that someone could take television to the beach would have been unimaginable twenty years ago. Actually, just about all of today’s video marketplace would have been unrecognizable back then. From its first satellite in 1993 to TV Everywhere today, DIRECTV has played a big role in this transformation. Unfortunately, one subset of television, over-the-air broadcast television remains governed by laws that have not kept up with these changes. These outdated laws work for the broadcasters, but not for the American viewing public. Broadcast television has gotten far too expensive. It is often unavailable where consumers want it, when they want it. Customers are forced to buy unwanted programming to get it, and the broadcast industry increasingly takes it away from viewers in “blackouts.” 1 The growing tension between innovation and stale broadcast regulation has landed repeatedly in federal court.
