SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP, INC. NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

Nature of Operations

As of March 31, 2021, we had two reportable segments for accounting purposes, broadcast and local sports. The broadcast segment consists primarily of our 186 broadcast television stations in 87 markets, which we own, provide programming and operating services pursuant to agreements commonly referred to as local marketing agreements (LMAs), or provide sales services and other non- programming operating services pursuant to other outsourcing agreements (such as joint sales agreements (JSAs) and shared services agreements (SSAs)). These stations broadcast 628 channels as of March 31, 2021. For the purpose of this report, these 186 stations and 628 channels are referred to as "our" stations and channels. The local sports segment consists primarily of our Bally Sports network brands (the Bally RSNs), the Marquee Sports Network (Marquee) joint venture and a minority equity interest in the Yankee Entertainment and Sports Network, LLC (YES Network). We refer to the Bally RSNs and Marquee as "the RSNs". The RSNs and YES Network own the exclusive rights to air, among other sporting events, the games of professional sports teams in designated local viewing areas.

Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and VIEs for which we are the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent a minority owner’s proportionate share of the equity in certain of our consolidated entities. Noncontrolling interests which may be redeemed by the holder, and the redemption is outside of our control, are presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests. All intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

We consolidate VIEs when we are the primary beneficiary. We are the primary beneficiary of a VIE when we have the power to direct the activities of the VIE that most significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE and have the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive returns that would be significant to the VIE. See Note 9. Variable Interest Entities for more information on our VIEs.

Investments in entities over which we have significant influence but not control are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. Income from equity method investments represents our proportionate share of net income generated by equity method investees.

Interim Financial Statements

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of equity (deficit) and redeemable noncontrolling interests, and consolidated statements of cash flows for these periods as adjusted for the adoption of recent accounting pronouncements discussed below.

As permitted under the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures normally included with audited consolidated financial statements and, accordingly, should be read together with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020 filed with the SEC. The consolidated statements of operations presented in the accompanying consolidated financial statements are not necessarily representative of operations for an entire year.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, and expenses in the consolidated financial statements and in the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance providing optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective for all entities immediately upon issuance of the update and may be applied prospectively to applicable transactions existing as of or entered into from the date of adoption through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, if elected, but do not expect a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

Broadcast Television Programming

We have agreements with multi-channel video programming distributors (MVPDs) and virtual MVPDs (vMVPDs, and together with MVPDs, "Distributors") for the rights to television programming over contract periods, which generally run from one to seven years. Contract payments are made in installments over terms that are generally equal to or shorter than the contract period. Pursuant to accounting guidance for the broadcasting industry, an asset and a liability for the rights acquired and obligations incurred under a license agreement are reported on the balance sheet when the cost of each program is known or reasonably determinable, the program material has been accepted by the licensee in accordance with the conditions of the license agreement, and the program is available for its first showing or telecast. The portion of program contracts which becomes payable within one year is reflected as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets

The rights to this programming are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value. Program contract costs are amortized on a straight-line basis except for contracts greater than three years which are amortized utilizing an accelerated method. Program contract costs estimated by management to be amortized in the succeeding year are classified as current assets. Payments of program contract liabilities are typically made on a scheduled basis and are not affected by amortization or fair value adjustments.

Fair value is determined utilizing a discounted cash flow model based on management’s expectation of future advertising revenues, net of sales commissions, to be generated by the program material. We assess our program contract costs on a quarterly basis to ensure the costs are recorded at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value.

Sports Programming Rights

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document We have multi-year program rights agreements that provide the Company with the right to produce and telecast professional live sports games within a specified territory in exchange for a rights fee. A prepaid asset is recorded for rights acquired related to future games upon payment of the contracted fee. The assets recorded for the acquired rights are classified as current or non-current based on the period when the games are expected to be aired. Liabilities are recorded for any program rights obligations that have been incurred but not yet paid at period end. We amortize these programming rights as an expense over each season based upon contractually stated rates. Amortization is accelerated in the event that the stated contractual rates over the term of the rights agreement results in an expense recognition pattern that is inconsistent with the projected growth of revenue over the contractual term.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the National Basketball Association (NBA), the National Hockey League (NHL), and Major League Baseball (MLB) suspended or delayed the start of their seasons as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. On that date, the Company suspended the recognition of amortization expense associated with prepaid program rights agreements with teams within these leagues. Amortization expense resumed for the NBA, NHL, and MLB over the modified seasons when the games commenced during the third quarter of 2020. The NBA and NHL also delayed the start of their 2020-2021 seasons until December 22, 2020 and January 13, 2021, respectively; sports rights expense associated with these seasons will be recognized over the modified term of these seasons.

Certain rights agreements with professional teams contain provisions which require the rebate of rights fees paid by the Company if a contractual minimum number of live games are not delivered. As of March 31, 2021, we have estimated rebates due from teams of $42 million which we expect to receive in the second quarter of 2021. The actual amount of rebates to be received will vary depending on changes in the final game counts of each leagues' respective season. Rights fees paid in advance of expense recognition, inclusive of any contractual rebates due to the Company, are included within prepaid sports rights in our consolidated balance sheets.

Non-cash Investing and Financing Activities

Non-cash transactions related to finance lease obligations were $6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. Leased assets obtained in exchange for new operating lease liabilities were $3 million and $8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

Revenue Recognition

The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by type and segment (in millions):

For the three months ended March 31, 2021 Broadcast Local sports Other Eliminations Total

Distribution revenue $ 361 $ 698 $ 50 $ — $ 1,109 Advertising revenue 267 65 40 (1) 371 Other media, non-media, and intercompany revenues 37 5 18 (29) 31

Total revenues $ 665 $ 768 $ 108 $ (30) $ 1,511

For the three months ended March 31, 2020 Broadcast Local sports Other Eliminations Total

Distribution revenue $ 355 $ 752 $ 49 $ — $ 1,156 Advertising revenue 310 55 35 — 400 Other media, non-media, and intercompany revenues 36 5 44 (32) 53

Total revenues $ 701 $ 812 $ 128 $ (32) $ 1,609

Distribution Revenue. We generate distribution revenue through fees received from Distributors for the right to distribute our stations, RSNs, and other properties. Distribution arrangements are generally governed by multi-year contracts and the underlying fees are based upon a contractual monthly rate per subscriber. These arrangements represent licenses of intellectual property; revenue is recognized as the signal or network programming is provided to our customers (as usage occurs) which corresponds with the satisfaction of our performance obligation. Revenue is calculated based upon the contractual rate multiplied by an estimated number of subscribers. Our customers will remit payments based upon actual subscribers a short time after the conclusion of a month, which generally does not exceed 120 days. Historical adjustments to subscriber estimates have not been material.

Certain of our distribution arrangements contain provisions that require the Company to deliver a minimum number of live professional sports games or tournaments during a defined period which usually corresponds with a calendar year. If the minimum threshold is not met, we may be obligated to refund a portion of the distribution fees received if shortfalls are not cured within a specified period of time. Our ability to meet these requirements is primarily driven by the delivery of games by the professional sports leagues. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had not historically paid any material rebates under these contractual provisions as it is unusual for there to be an event which is significant enough to preclude the Company from meeting or exceeding these thresholds. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant disruptions to the normal operations of the professional sports leagues resulting in delays and uncertainty with respect to regularly scheduled games. Decisions made by the leagues during the second quarter of 2020 regarding the timing and format of the revised 2020 season and decisions made by the NHL and NBA during the fourth quarter of 2020 and first quarter of 2021 regarding the timing and format of their revised 2020-2021 seasons have resulted, in some cases, in our inability to meet these minimum game requirements and the need to reduce revenue based upon estimated rebates due to our distribution customers. Accrued rebates as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $268 million and $420 million, respectively. The decrease in accrued rebates during the three- month period ending March 31, 2021 includes $133 million of payments and $19 million of adjustments related primarily to increases in estimated game counts. As of March 31, 2021, $183 million is reflected in other current liabilities and $85 million is reflected in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We expect these rebates to be paid during 2021 and 2022. There were no rebates accrued during the three-month period ending March 31, 2021. See Subsequent Events within Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Advertising Revenue. We generate advertising revenue primarily from the sale of advertising spots/impressions within our broadcast television, RSN, and digital platforms.

Deferred Revenue. We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. We classify deferred revenue as either current in other current liabilities or long-term in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets based on the timing of when we expect to satisfy our performance obligations. Deferred revenue was $233 million as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, of which $179 million and $184 million, respectively, was reflected in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, was $17 million and $30 million, respectively.

On November 18, 2020, the Company and Diamond Sports Group, LLC (DSG) entered into an enterprise-wide commercial agreement with Bally's Corporation (Bally's), including providing certain branding integrations in our RSNs, broadcast networks and other properties. These branding integrations include naming rights associated with the majority of our RSNs (other than Marquee). The initial term of this arrangement is 10 years and we expect to begin performing under this arrangement in 2021. The Company received noncash consideration initially valued at $199 million which is reflected as a contract liability and will be recognized as revenue as the performance obligations under the arrangement are satisfied. No revenue was recognized under this arrangement during the three months ended March 31, 2021. See Note 3. Other Assets for more information.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, three customers accounted for 20%, 19%, and 15%, respectively, of our total revenues. For the three months ended March 31, 2020, three customers accounted for 20%, 17%, and 12%, respectively, of our total revenues. As of March 31, 2021, three customers accounted for 20%, 17%, and 15%, respectively, of our accounts receivable, net. For purposes of this disclosure, a single customer may include multiple entities under common control.

Income Taxes

Our income tax provision for all periods consists of federal and state income taxes. The tax provision for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 is based on the estimated effective tax rate applicable for the full year after taking into account discrete tax items and the effects of the noncontrolling interests. We provide a valuation allowance for deferred tax assets if we determine that it is more likely than not that some or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In evaluating our ability to realize net deferred tax assets, we consider all available evidence, both positive and negative, including our past operating results, tax planning strategies, current and cumulative losses, and forecasts of future taxable income. In considering these sources of taxable income, we must make certain judgments that are based on the plans and estimates used to manage our underlying businesses on a long-term basis. A valuation allowance has been provided for deferred tax assets related to certain temporary basis differences, interest expense carryforwards under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 163(j) and a substantial amount of our available state net operating loss carryforwards based on past operating results, expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary basis differences, alternative tax strategies and projected future taxable income.

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was less than the statutory rate primarily due to substantially magnified impact of discrete items as a result of small pre-tax income. Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was less than the statutory rate primarily due to $27 million of federal tax credits related to investments in sustainability initiatives and a $13 million discrete benefit as a result of the CARES Act allowing for the 2020 federal net operating loss to be carried back to pre-2018 years when the federal tax rate was 35%.

Share Repurchase Program

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document On August 4, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $500 million share repurchase authorization in addition to the previous repurchase authorization of $1 billion. There is no expiration date and currently, management has no plans to terminate this program. As of March 31, 2021, the total remaining purchase authorization was $880 million.

Subsequent Events

In May 2021, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share, payable on June 15, 2021 to holders of record at the close of business on June 1, 2021.

Other than those noted in Note 3. Other Assets and Note 4. Notes Payable, Finance Leases, and Commercial Bank Financing, no other subsequent events were noted.

The Company is closely monitoring the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on all aspects of its business, including how it has already impacted, and will impact, its advertisers, Distributors, and agreements with professional sports leagues. While the NBA, NHL, and MLB were able to complete modified season schedules during 2020, there can be no assurance that the MLB, NBA, or NHL will complete full or abbreviated seasons in the future. The NBA and NHL delayed the start of their 2020-2021 seasons until December 22, 2020 and January 13, 2021, respectively, however both under reduced game counts. The MLB began their season on time in April 2021 under a full game schedule. The NBA and NHL have not announced their 2021-2022 season schedules yet. Any reduction in the number of games played by the leagues may have an adverse impact on our operations and cash flows. The Company is currently unable to predict the full extent that the COVID-19 pandemic will have on its financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows in future periods due to numerous uncertainties.

Reclassifications

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation.

2. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS OF ASSETS:

Acquisitions. In February 2021, we acquired ZypMedia for approximately $7 million in cash. The acquired assets and liabilities were recorded at fair value as of the closing date of the transaction.

Dispositions. In February 2021, we sold two of our television broadcast stations, WDKA-TV in Paducah, KY, and KBSI-TV in Cape Girardeau, MO, for an aggregate purchase price of $28 million. We recorded a gain of $12 million which is included within gain on asset dispositions and other, net of impairment in our consolidated statements of operations.

Broadcast Incentive Auction. In 2012, Congress authorized the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to conduct so-called "incentive auctions" to auction and re-purpose broadcast television spectrum for mobile broadband use. Pursuant to the auction, television broadcasters submitted bids to receive compensation for relinquishing all or a portion of their rights in the television spectrum of their full-service and Class A stations. Low power stations were not eligible to participate in the auction and are not protected and therefore may be displaced or forced to go off the air as a result of the post-auction repacking process.

In March 2016, the FCC began the repacking process associated with the auction, in which the FCC reassigned some stations to new post-auction channels. We do not expect reassignment to new channels to have a material impact on our coverage. We have received notification from the FCC that 100 of our stations have been assigned to new channels. Legislation has provided the FCC with a $3 billion fund to reimburse reasonable costs incurred by stations that are reassigned to new channels in the repack. We expect that the reimbursements from the fund will cover the majority of our expenses related to the repack. We recorded gains related to reimbursements for spectrum repack costs incurred of $14 million and $24 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which are included within gain on asset dispositions and other, net of impairment in our consolidated statements of operations. Capital expenditures related to the spectrum repack were $4 million and $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively.

3. OTHER ASSETS:

Other assets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 consisted of the following (in millions):

As of March 31, As of December 31, 2021 2020

Equity method investments $ 492 $ 451 Other investments 575 450 Post-retirement plan assets 48 44 Other 107 113

Total other assets $ 1,222 $ 1,058

Equity Method Investments We have a portfolio of investments, including our investment in the YES Network and entities that are primarily focused on the development of real estate, sustainability initiatives, and other non-media businesses. For the periods ended March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, none of our investments were individually significant.

YES Network Investment. We account for our investment in the YES Network as an equity method investment, which is recorded within other assets in our consolidated balance sheets, and in which our proportionate share of the net income generated by the investment is included within income (loss) from equity method investments in our consolidated statements of operations. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we recorded income of $13 million and $5 million, respectively, related to our investment.

Other Investments

We measure our investments, excluding equity method investments, at fair value or, in situations where fair value is not readily determinable, we have the option to value investments at cost plus observable changes in value, less impairment.

As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we held $88 million and $68 million, respectively, in equity securities which are classified as level 1 securities in the fair value hierarchy. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 we recognized fair value adjustment gains of $20 million and losses of $1 million, respectively, associated with these securities, which are reflected in other income, net in our consolidated statements of operations. Investments accounted for utilizing the measurement alternative were $22 million, net of $7 million of cumulative impairments, as of March 31, 2021, and $26 million, net of $7 million of cumulative impairments, as of December 31, 2020. There were no adjustments to the carrying amount of investments accounted for utilizing the measurement alternative for the three months ended March 31, 2021 or 2020.

On November 18, 2020, we entered into a commercial agreement with Bally's. As part of this agreement, we received warrants to acquire up to 8.2 million shares of Bally's common stock for a penny per share, of which 3.3 million are exercisable upon meeting certain performance metrics. We also received options to purchase up to 1.6 million shares of Bally's common stock with exercise prices between $30 and $45 per share, exercisable after four years. These investments are reflected at fair value within our financial statements. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 we recorded an increase in value of $103 million which is reflected in other income, net in our consolidated statements of operations. The value of these investments was $435 million and $332 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. See Note 11. Fair Value Measurements for further discussion.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document In April 2021, we made an incremental investment of $93 million in Bally's in the form of non-voting perpetual warrants. These warrants are convertible into 1.7 million shares of Bally's common stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, subject to certain adjustments.

4. NOTES PAYABLE, FINANCE LEASES, AND COMMERCIAL BANK FINANCING:

Bank Credit Agreements

Each of the bank credit agreements of Sinclair Television Group, Inc. (STG), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and DSG (collectively, the Bank Credit Agreements) include a financial maintenance covenant, the first lien leverage ratio (as defined in the respective Bank Credit Agreements), which requires such applicable ratio not to exceed 4.5x and 6.25x, measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter, for STG and DSG, respectively. The respective financial maintenance covenant is only applicable if 35% or more of the capacity (as a percentage of total commitments) under the respective revolving credit facility, measured as of the last day of each quarter, is utilized under such revolving credit facility as of such date. Since there was no utilization under either of the revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2021, neither STG nor DSG was subject to the respective financial maintenance covenant under their applicable Bank Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2021, the STG first lien leverage ratio was below 4.5x and the DSG first lien leverage ratio exceeded 6.25x. We expect that the DSG first lien leverage ratio will remain above 6.25x for at least the next 12 months, which will restrict our ability to utilize the full DSG revolving credit facility. We do not currently expect to have more than 35% of the capacity of the DSG revolving credit facility outstanding as of any quarterly measurement date during the next twelve months, therefore we do not expect DSG will be subject to the financial maintenance covenant. The Bank Credit Agreements contain other restrictions and covenants with which the respective entities were in compliance as of March 31, 2021.

On April 1, 2021, STG amended the STG Bank Credit Agreement to raise term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $740 million (STG Term Loan B-3), the proceeds of which were used to refinance a portion of STG's term loan maturing in January 2024. The STG Term Loan B-3 matures in April 2028 and bears interest at LIBOR (or successor rate) plus 3.00%.

Accounts receivable securitization facility

On September 23, 2020, the Company's and DSG's indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, Diamond Sports Finance SPV, LLC (DSPV), entered into a $250 million accounts receivable securitization facility (the A/R Facility) which matures on September 23, 2023, in order to enable DSG to raise incremental funding for the ongoing business needs of the local sports segment.

The outstanding balance under the A/R Facility was $173 million and $177 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Accounts receivable held by DSPV were $229 million and $228 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

DSG's ability to make scheduled payments on its debt obligations depends on its financial condition and operating performance, which are subject to prevailing economic and competitive conditions and to certain financial, business, competitive, legislative, regulatory and other factors beyond its control. The impact of the outbreak of COVID-19 continues to create significant uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. Further, DSG’s success is dependent upon the existence and terms of its agreements with distributors, OTT and other streaming providers. We anticipate DSG’s existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from our operations, and borrowing capacity will be sufficient to satisfy its debt service obligations, capital expenditure requirements, and working capital needs for the next twelve months. However, certain factors, including but not limited to, the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting effect on the economy, our advertisers, Distributors, and their subscribers, could affect DSG’s liquidity and ability to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit DSG to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on its debt.

Notes payable and finance leases to affiliates

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document The current portion of notes payable, finance leases, and commercial bank financing in our consolidated balance sheets includes finance leases to affiliates of $2 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Notes payable, finance leases, and commercial bank financing, less current portion, in our consolidated balance sheets includes finances leases to affiliates of $6 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. See Note 10. Related Person Transactions for further discussion.

Debt of variable interest entities and guarantees of third-party debt

STG jointly, severally, unconditionally, and irrevocably guaranteed $48 million and $49 million of debt of certain third parties as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, of which $15 million and $16 million, net of deferred financing costs, related to consolidated VIEs that are included in our consolidated balance sheets as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. These guarantees primarily relate to the debt of Cunningham Broadcasting Corporation (Cunningham) as discussed under Cunningham Broadcasting Corporation within Note 10. Related Person Transactions. We have determined that, as of March 31, 2021, it is not probable that we would have to perform under any of these guarantees.

5. REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTERESTS:

We account for redeemable noncontrolling interests in accordance with ASC 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, and classify them as mezzanine equity in our consolidated balance sheets because their possible redemption is outside of the control of the Company. Our redeemable non-controlling interests consist of the following:

Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Equity. On August 23, 2019, Diamond Sports Holdings LLC (DSH), an indirect parent of DSG and indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued preferred equity (the Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Equity).

Dividends accrued during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were $4 million and $13 million, respectively, and are reflected in net income attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests in our consolidated statements of operations. The dividends paid in cash accrue at a rate equal to 1-month LIBOR (with a 0.75% floor) plus 7.5%, which is 0.5% lower than the rate payable if the dividends were paid-in-kind during the quarter.

The balance of the Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Equity was $170 million, net of issuance costs, as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020.

Subsidiary Equity Put Right. A noncontrolling equity holder of one of our subsidiaries has the right to sell their interest to the Company at any time during the 30-day period following September 30, 2025. The value of this redeemable noncontrolling interest was $18 million and $20 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

Sports Programming Rights

We are contractually obligated to make payments to purchase sports programming rights. The following table presents our annual non-cancellable commitments relating to our local sports segment's sports programming rights agreements as of March 31, 2021. These commitments assume that sports teams fully deliver the contractually committed games, and do not reflect the impact of rebates expected to be paid by the teams.

(in millions) 2021 (remainder) $ 1,233 2022 1,655 2023 1,608 2024 1,540 2025 1,420 2026 and thereafter 7,008

Total $ 14,464

Other Liabilities

In connection with our acquisition of the Bally RSNs, we assumed certain fixed payment obligations which are payable through 2027. We recorded these obligations in purchase accounting at estimated fair value. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $31 million was recorded within other current liabilities and $98 million and $97 million, respectively, was recorded within other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Interest expense of $2 million was recorded for both the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020.

In connection with our acquisition of the Bally RSNs, we assumed certain variable payment obligations which are payable through 2030. These contractual obligations are based upon the excess cash flow of certain Bally RSNs. We recorded these obligations in purchase accounting at estimated fair value. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, $14 million and $12 million, respectively, was recorded within other current liabilities and $41 million was recorded within other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. These obligations are measured at the present value of the estimated amount of cash to be paid over the term of the contracts. We recorded a measurement adjustment loss of $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 within other income, net in our consolidated statements of operations.

Litigation

We are a party to lawsuits, claims, and regulatory matters from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Actions currently pending are in various stages and no material judgments or decisions have been rendered by hearing boards or courts in connection with such actions. Except as noted below, we do not believe the outcome of these matters, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material effect on the Company's financial statements.

FCC Litigation Matters

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document On December 21, 2017, the FCC issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (NAL) proposing a $13 million fine for alleged violations of the FCC's sponsorship identification rules by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. We filed a response disputing the Commission's findings and the proposed fine.

On September 1, 2020, one of the individuals who filed a petition for reconsideration of the Order and Consent Decree filed a petition to deny the license renewal application of WBFF(TV), Baltimore, MD, and the license renewal applications of two other Baltimore, MD stations with which the Company has a JSA or LMA, Deerfield Media station WUTB(TV) and Cunningham station WNUV(TV). The Company filed an opposition to the petition on October 1, 2020, and the petition remains pending.

On September 2, 2020, the FCC adopted a Memorandum Opinion and Order and Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (NAL) against the licensees of several stations with whom the Company has LMAs, JSAs, and/or SSAs in response to a complaint regarding those stations’ retransmission consent negotiations. The NAL proposed a $0.5 million penalty for each station, totaling $9 million. The licensees filed a response to the NAL on October 15, 2020, asking the Commission to dismiss the proceeding or, alternatively, to reduce the proposed forfeiture to $25,000 per station. The Company is not a party to that proceeding and cannot predict whether or how the proceeding will affect the Company’s financial statements. However, we accrued an expense for the above legal matters during 2020, as we consolidate these stations as VIEs.

Other Litigation Matters

On November 6, 2018, the Company agreed to enter into a proposed consent decree with the Department of Justice (DOJ). This consent decree resolves the DOJ’s investigation into the sharing of pacing information among certain stations in some local markets. The DOJ filed the consent decree and related documents in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia on November 13, 2018. The U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia entered the consent decree on May 22, 2019. The consent decree is not an admission of any wrongdoing by the Company and does not subject Sinclair to any monetary damages or penalties. The Company believes that even if the pacing information was shared as alleged, it would not have impacted any pricing of advertisements or the competitive nature of the market. The consent decree requires the Company to adopt certain antitrust compliance measures, including the appointment of an Antitrust Compliance Officer, consistent with what the Department of Justice has required in previous consent decrees in other industries. The consent decree also requires the Company's stations not to exchange pacing and certain other information with other stations in their local markets, which the Company’s management has already instructed them not to do.

The Company is aware of twenty-two putative class action lawsuits that were filed against the Company following published reports of the DOJ investigation into the exchange of pacing data within the industry. On October 3, 2018, these lawsuits were consolidated in the Northern District of Illinois. The consolidated action alleges that the Company and thirteen other broadcasters conspired to fix prices for commercials to be aired on broadcast television stations throughout the United States and engaged in unlawful information sharing, in violation of the Sherman Antitrust Act. The consolidated action seeks damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and interest, as well as injunctions against adopting practices or plans that would restrain competition in the ways the plaintiffs have alleged. The Court denied the Defendants’ motion to dismiss on November 6, 2020. Since then, the Plaintiffs have served the Defendants with written discovery requests, and the Court has set a pretrial schedule requiring discovery to be completed by July 1, 2022, and briefing on class certification to be completed by November 14, 2022. The Company believes the lawsuits are without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against all such claims.

8. SEGMENT DATA:

We measure segment performance based on operating income (loss). We have two reportable segments: broadcast and local sports. Our broadcast segment, previously referred to as our local news and marketing services segment, provides free over-the-air programming to television viewing audiences and includes stations in 87 markets located throughout the continental United States. Our local sports segment, previously referred to as our sports segment, provides viewers with live professional sports content and includes our Bally RSNs, Marquee, and our investment in the YES Network. Other and corporate are not reportable segments but are included for reconciliation purposes. Other primarily consists of original networks and content, including Tennis, non-broadcast digital and internet solutions, technical services, and other non-media investments. Corporate costs primarily include our costs to operate as a public company and to operate our corporate headquarters location. All of our businesses are located within the United States.

Segment financial information is included in the following tables for the periods presented (in millions):

9. VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES:

Certain of our stations provide services to other station owners within the same respective market through agreements, such as LMAs, where we provide programming, sales, operational, and administrative services, and JSAs and SSAs, where we provide non- programming, sales, operational, and administrative services. In certain cases, we have also entered into purchase agreements or options to purchase the license related assets of the licensee. We typically own the majority of the non-license assets of the stations, and in some cases where the licensee acquired the license assets concurrent with our acquisition of the non-license assets of the station, we have provided guarantees to the bank for the licensee’s acquisition financing. The terms of the agreements vary, but generally have initial terms of over five years with several optional renewal terms. Based on the terms of the agreements and the significance of our investment in the stations, we are the primary beneficiary when, subject to the ultimate control of the licensees, we have the power to direct the activities which significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE through the services we provide and we absorb losses and returns that would be considered significant to the VIEs. The fees paid between us and the licensees pursuant to these arrangements are eliminated in consolidation.

We are party to a joint venture associated with Marquee. Marquee is party to a long term telecast rights agreement which provides the rights to air certain live game telecasts and other content, which we guarantee. In connection with a prior acquisition, we became party to a joint venture associated with one other regional sports network. We participate significantly in the economics and have the power to direct the activities which significantly impact the economic performance of these regional sports networks, including sales and certain operational services. We consolidate these regional sports networks because they are variable interest entities and we are the primary beneficiary.

The carrying amounts and classification of the assets and liabilities of the VIEs mentioned above, which have been included in our consolidated balance sheets as of the dates presented, were as follows (in millions):

ASSETS Current assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 45 $ 64 Accounts receivable, net 57 70 Prepaid sports rights 46 2 Other current assets 4 5 Total current assets 152 141

Property and equipment, net 15 16 Operating lease assets 6 6 Goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets 15 15 Definite-lived intangible assets, net 52 54 Other assets 1 1

Total assets $ 241 $ 233

LIABILITIES Current liabilities: Other current liabilities $ 45 $ 40

Notes payable, finance leases and commercial bank financing, less current portion 9 10 Operating lease liabilities, less current portion 5 5 Program contracts payable, less current portion 3 4 Other long-term liabilities 11 17

Total liabilities $ 73 $ 76

The amounts above represent the consolidated assets and liabilities of the VIEs described above, for which we are the primary beneficiary. Total liabilities associated with certain outsourcing agreements and purchase options with certain VIEs, which are excluded from the above, were $125 million and $131 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, as these amounts are eliminated in consolidation. The assets of each of these consolidated VIEs can only be used to settle the obligations of the VIE. As of March 31, 2021, all of the liabilities are non-recourse to us except for the debt of certain VIEs. See Debt of variable interest entities and guarantees of third-party debt under Note 4. Notes Payable, Finance Leases, and Commercial Bank Financing for further discussion. The risk and reward characteristics of the VIEs are similar.

Other VIEs

We have several investments in entities which are considered VIEs. However, we do not participate in the management of these entities, including the day-to-day operating decisions or other decisions which would allow us to control the entity, and therefore, we are not considered the primary beneficiary of these VIEs.

The carrying amounts of our investments in these VIEs for which we are not the primary beneficiary were $83 million and $75 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Our maximum exposure is equal to the carrying value of our investments. The income and loss related to equity method investments and other investments are recorded in income (loss) from equity method investments and other income, net, respectively, in our consolidated statements of operations. We recorded losses of $4 million and $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to these investments.

10. RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS:

Transactions with our controlling shareholders

David, Frederick, J. Duncan, and Robert Smith (collectively, the controlling shareholders) are brothers and hold substantially all of our Class B Common Stock and some of our Class A Common Stock. We engaged in the following transactions with them and/or entities in which they have substantial interests:

Leases. Certain assets used by us and our operating subsidiaries are leased from entities owned by the controlling shareholders.

11. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS:

Accounting guidance provides for valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). A fair value hierarchy using three broad levels prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

• Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. • Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. • Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions.

The following table sets forth the carrying value and fair value of our financial assets and liabilities for the periods presented (in millions):

As of March 31, 2021 As of December 31, 2020

The fair value of the options is derived utilizing the Black Scholes valuation model. The most significant inputs include the trading price of the underlying common stock, the exercise price of the options, which range from $30 to $45 per share, and a DLOM of 25%. There are certain restrictions surrounding the sale and ownership of common stock and the Company has agreed not to sell any shares beneficially owned prior to the first anniversary of the agreement. The Company is also precluded from owning more than 4.9% of the outstanding common shares of Bally's, inclusive of shares obtained through the exercise of the warrants and options described above. See Other Investments under Note 3. Other Assets for further discussion.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This report includes or incorporates forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), and the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions about us, including, among other things, the following risks:

COVID-19 risks

• The suspension, and possible cancellation, of some or all of the MLB, NBA and NHL seasons, and tennis tournaments; • the requirement of our RSNs to pay professional sports team minimum rights fees, but thereafter being unable to obtain rebates from sports teams for fewer games played; • the need to reimburse Distributors affiliation fees related to canceled professional sporting events; • loss of advertising revenue due to (i) postponement or cancellation of professional sporting events, (ii) reluctance of advertisers to purchase advertising spots due to reduced consumer spending as a result of shelter in place and stay at home orders, or lower audience engagement, (iii) potential reduced need for advertisers to advertise for certain goods or services with low supply, due to interruptions in the supply chain, and (iv) adverse business conditions affecting our customers, including our advertisers’ going out of business; • the significant disruption to the operations of the professional sports leagues and the macroeconomy caused by COVID-19 may result in the recognition of further impairment charges on our goodwill and definite-lived intangible assets; • we may be unable to access debt and equity capital on favorable terms, if at all, or a severe disruption and instability in the global financial markets or deterioration in credit and financing conditions may affect our access to capital necessary to fund business operations, pursue acquisition and development opportunities, refinance existing debt, and increase our future interest expense; • the interruption to global supply chains caused by COVID-19 could impact our ability to migrate off of various transition services provided by the seller of acquired assets which we rely upon to conduct our business in the local sports segment; • potential that our workforce may contract COVID-19 which could impact operations and increase health care costs; and • cybersecurity and operational risks as a result of work-from-home arrangements.

Industry risks

• The business conditions of our advertisers, particularly in the political, automotive and service categories; • the performance of networks and syndicators that provide us with programming content, as well as the performance of internally originated programming; • subscriber churn due to the impact of technological changes and the proliferation of over-the-top (OTT) direct to consumer platforms; • the loss of appeal of our sports programming, which may be unpredictable, and the impact of strikes caused by collective bargaining between players and sports leagues; • the availability and cost of programming from leagues and professional teams, networks and syndicators, as well as the cost of internally originated programming; • our relationships with networks and their strategies to distribute their programming via means other than their local television affiliates, such as OTT or direct-to-consumer content;

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document • labor disputes and legislation and other union activity associated with film, acting, writing, and other guilds and professional sports leagues; • the broadcasting community’s ability to develop and adopt a viable mobile digital broadcast television (mobile DTV) strategy and platform, such as the adoption of a next generation broadcast standard (NEXTGEN TV), and the consumer’s appetite for mobile television; • the impact of programming payments charged by networks pursuant to their affiliation agreements with broadcasters requiring compensation for network programming; • the availability and cost of programming from networks and syndicators, as well as the cost of internally originated programming;

• the effects of declining live/appointment viewership as reported through rating systems and local television efforts to adopt and receive credit for same day viewing plus viewing on-demand thereafter; • changes in television rating measurement methodologies that could negatively impact audience results; • the ability of local Distributors to coordinate and determine local advertising rates as a consortium; • the operation of low power devices in the broadcast spectrum, which could interfere with our broadcast; • the impact of Distributors, and OTTs offering "skinny" programming bundles that may not include television broadcast stations, regional sports networks, or other programming that we distribute; and • the ability to renew media rights agreements with various professional sports teams which have varying durations and terms that are at least as favorable as those in existence.

Regulatory risks

• The effects of the FCC's National Broadband Plan, the impact of the repacking of our broadcasting spectrum, as a result of the incentive auction, within a limited timeframe and funding allocated; • the potential for additional governmental regulation of broadcasting or changes in those regulations and court actions interpreting those regulations, including ownership regulations limiting over-the-air television's ability to compete effectively (including regulations relating to JSA, SSA, cross ownership rules, and the national ownership cap), arbitrary enforcement of indecency regulations, retransmission consent regulations, and political or other advertising restrictions, such as payola rules; • the impact of FCC and Congressional efforts which may restrict a television station's retransmission consent negotiations; • the impact of FCC rules requiring broadcast stations to publish, among other information, political advertising rates online; • the impact of foreign government rules related to digital and online assets; and • the potential impact from the elimination of rules prohibiting mergers of the four major television networks.

Risks specific to us

• Our ability to attract and maintain local, national, and network advertising and successfully participate in new sales channels such as programmatic and addressable advertising through business partnership ventures and the development of technology; • our ability to service our debt obligations and operate our business under restrictions contained in our financing agreements; • our ability to successfully implement and monetize our own content management system (CMS) designed to provide our viewers significantly improved content via the internet and other digital platforms; • our ability to successfully renegotiate retransmission consent and distribution agreements for our existing and acquired businesses with favorable terms; • the ability of stations which we consolidate, but do not negotiate on their behalf, to successfully renegotiate retransmission consent and affiliation fees (cable network fees) agreements; • our ability to renew our FCC licenses; • our ability to obtain FCC approval for any future acquisitions, as well as, in certain cases, customary antitrust clearance for any future acquisitions; • our ability to identify media business investment opportunities and to successfully integrate any acquired businesses, as well as the success of our new content and distribution initiatives in a competitive environment, including CHARGE!, TBD, Comet, STIRR, Marquee, other original programming, and mobile DTV; • our ability to air all sports games in live format given the increased game counts in 2021 due to the NHL and NBA shifting games that would have been broadcast into the fourth quarter of 2020 into 2021; • our ability to maintain our affiliation and programming service agreements with our networks and program service providers and at renewal, to successfully negotiate these agreements with favorable terms; • our ability to manage operational risks in joint venture arrangements related to our RSNs; • our ability to generate synergies and leverage new revenue opportunities;

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Any references to the second, third, or fourth quarters are to the three months ended June 30, September 30, or December 31, respectively, for the year being discussed. We have two reportable segments, "broadcast" and "local sports," that are disclosed separately from our other and corporate activities.

Seasonality / Cyclicality

The operating results of our broadcast segment are usually subject to cyclical fluctuations from political advertising. In even numbered years, political spending is usually significantly higher than in odd numbered years due to advertising expenditures preceding local and national elections. Additionally, every four years, political spending is usually elevated further due to advertising expenditures preceding the presidential election. Also, the second and fourth quarter operating results are usually higher than the first and third quarters’ because advertising expenditures are increased in anticipation of certain seasonal and holiday spending by consumers.

The operating results of our local sports segment are usually subject to cyclical fluctuations based on the timing and overlap of the MLB, NBA and NHL seasons. Usually, the second and third quarter operating results are higher than the first and fourth quarter operating results.

However, with the exception of political advertising, our usual seasonality and cyclicality, as described above, did not occur in 2020, and may not occur in 2021, for either segment due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Operating Data

The following table sets forth our consolidated operating data for the periods presented (in millions):

The Impact of COVID-19 on our Results of Operations

Overview

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a pandemic, and by the end of the following day, each of the MLB, NBA, and NHL had suspended their seasons. On March 13, 2020, the United States declared a national state of emergency. As of March 31, 2021, the national state of emergency is still in effect, however states have reopened their economies at various levels, COVID-19 vaccinations are being distributed in mass quantities and all professional sports leagues are currently playing live games. However, with new variants of COVID-19 being detected across multiple countries, it still remains unclear how the current trends of states reopening their economies will be impacted and what the overall impact of COVID-19 will be on our business.

Broadcast segment

During the first quarter of 2021, as compared to the prior year, we saw a decrease in advertising revenue primarily related to a decrease in political advertising revenue, as 2020 was a political year. We expect total advertising revenue for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021 to be higher than the same period in 2020 primarily due to the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the prior year. See Revenue under the Broadcast Segment section below for further discussion.

Local sports segment

In March 2020, the NBA and NHL each postponed their ongoing 2019-2020 seasons and the MLB postponed the start of its 2020 season and returned to operation under reduced game counts and were able to complete these modified seasons during the early part of the fourth quarter of 2020. The NBA and NHL began their modified 2020-2021 seasons during the fourth quarter of 2020 and the first quarter of 2021, respectively, and the MLB began its 2021 season on April 1, 2021. Advertising revenue increased in the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the first quarter of 2020 largely driven by an increased number of NBA and NHL games played during the quarter. Distribution revenue decreased during the first quarter of 2021 compared to the first quarter of 2020 due to subscriber erosion experienced by certain Distributors and the effect of three Distributors dropping carriage of the RSNs during the third and fourth quarter of 2020. The NBA and NHL are nearing completion of their modified 2020-2021 seasons. The NBA and NHL have not announced their 2021-2022 season schedules yet and there can be no assurances that the MLB, NBA, or NHL will complete full or abbreviated seasons in the future. Any reduction in the actual number of games played by the leagues may have an adverse impact on our operations and the cash flows of our local sports segment. See Distribution Revenue in Revenue Recognition and Sports Programming Rights under Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on how COVID-19 has impacted distribution revenue and sports rights expense, respectively, including the need for us to provide rebates to our Distributors as well as seek rebate from or reduce future payments to certain of the sports teams.

Business continuity

Within the United States, our business has been designated an essential business, which allows us to continue to serve our customers, however, the COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted our operations. Certain of our facilities have experienced temporary disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we cannot predict whether our facilities will experience more significant disruptions in the future and how long these disruptions will last. The COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the risk that a significant portion of our workforce will suffer illness or otherwise be unable to work. Furthermore, additional reductions in our workforce may become necessary as a result of declines in our business caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. If we take such actions, we cannot assure that we will be able to rehire our workforce once our business has recovered.

BROADCAST SEGMENT

The following table sets forth our revenue and expenses for our broadcast segment, previously known as our local news and marketing services segment, for the periods presented (in millions):

Three Months Ended Percent March 31, Change Increase / 2021 2020 (Decrease) Revenue: Distribution revenue $ 361 $ 355 2% Advertising revenue 267 310 (14)% Other media revenues (a) 37 36 3%

Media revenues $ 665 $ 701 (5)%

(a) Includes $27 million and $24 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, of intercompany revenue related to certain services provided to local sports and other under management services agreements, which is eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue

Distribution revenue. Distribution revenue, which includes payments from Distributors for our broadcast signals, increased $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021, when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to an increase in contractual rates, partially offset by a decrease in subscribers.

Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue decreased $43 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease is primarily related to a decrease in political advertising revenue of $36 million, as 2020 was a political year and a decrease in certain other categories, notably a $3 million decrease in each of the automotive, furniture, and restaurants categories, respectively, a $2 million decrease in each of the drugs and cosmetics and retail categories, respectively, and a $1 million decrease in media primarily as a result of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as the Super Bowl moving from being broadcast on FOX in the prior year to CBS in the current year. The decrease is partially offset by an increase in certain categories, notably a $5 million increase in both the services and entertainment categories, respectively.

Expenses

Media programming and production expenses. Media programming and production expenses increased $21 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily related to a $28 million increase in fees pursuant to network affiliation agreements, partially offset by a $4 million decrease in promotional costs and a $3 million decrease in employee compensation cost and travel expenses.

Media selling, general and administrative expenses. Media selling, general and administrative expenses increased $1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily due to $8 million in employee compensation cost, a portion of which is related to severance and other termination benefits related to the reduction-in-force completed in the first quarter, partially offset by a $7 million decrease in third-party fulfillment costs from our digital business.

Depreciation and amortization expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $4 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, and is primarily due to an increase in assets placed in-service.

Amortization of program contract costs. The amortization of program contract costs decreased $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same periods in 2020, and is primarily related to the timing of amortization on long-term contracts and reduced renewal costs.

Corporate general and administrative expenses. See explanation under Corporate and Unallocated Expenses.

Gain on asset dispositions and other, net of impairments. For the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 we recorded gains of $14 million and $24 million, respectively, related to reimbursements from the spectrum repack. During the first quarter of 2021 we recorded a gain on asset disposition of $12 million, related to the WDKA-TV/ KBSI-TV transaction and a loss of $12 million related to the write-down of the carrying value of assets of one of our stations to approximate the estimated selling price to be received in a potential sales transaction. During the first quarter of 2020 we recorded a gain on asset disposition and other, net of impairments of $8 million

LOCAL SPORTS SEGMENT

Our local sports segment, previously known as our sports segment, reflects the results of our Bally RSNs, Marquee, and a minority interest in the YES Network. The RSNs and YES Network own the exclusive rights to air, among other sporting events, the games of professional sports teams in designated local viewing areas.

The following table sets forth our revenue and expenses for our local sports segment for the period presented (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31, Percent Change Increase / 2021 2020 (Decrease)

Revenue: (b) Distribution revenue $ 698 $ 752 (7)% Advertising revenue 65 55 18% Other media revenue 5 5 —%

Media revenue $ 768 $ 812 (5)%

Operating Expenses: Media programming and production expenses $ 657 $ 478 37% Media selling, general and administrative expenses (a) 65 57 14% Depreciation and amortization expenses 84 110 (24)% Corporate general and administrative 3 2 50%

Operating (loss) income (a) $ (41) $ 165 (125)% Income from equity method investments $ 13 $ 6 117%

(a) Includes $26 million and $23 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively, of intercompany expense related to certain services provided by the broadcast segment under a management services agreement, which is eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Marquee was launched in late February 2020, therefore although not called out in each section below, is a driver of the changes between the periods due to a full quarter of activity being included in the current period, versus only a partial quarter of activity in the prior period.

Distribution revenue. Distribution revenue, which is generated through fees received from Distributors for the right to distribute our RSNs, decreased $54 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to the loss of three Distributors in 2020 and elevated subscriber churn with remaining Distributors offset by a $19 million reduction to accrued rebates to Distributors primarily related to an increase in estimated games related to the 2020-2021 NBA season. See discussion under Revenue Recognition within FN 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within the Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion. We expect distribution revenue to decrease for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021 primarily due to elevated levels of subscriber churn.

Advertising revenue. Advertising revenue is primarily generated from sales of commercial time within the RSNs programming. Advertising revenue increased $10 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a higher number of games being played in the first quarter of 2021 when compared to the first quarter of 2020 due to

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document suspension of the league seasons in March of 2020. We expect advertising revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to increase as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to a higher number of games played in the second quarter. See discussion under The Impact of COVID-19 on our Results of Operations for further discussion.

Media programming and production expenses. Media programming and production expenses are primarily related to amortization of our sports programming rights with MLB, NBA, and NHL teams, and the costs of producing and distributing content for our brands including live games, pre-game and post-game shows, and backdrop programming. Media programming and production expenses increased $179 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily driven by an increase in sports rights amortization expense of $161 million and production expenses of $18 million. These increases are primarily driven by the suspension of the 2019-2020 NBA and NHL seasons in early March 2020 and the compression of the 2020-2021 NBA and NHL seasons. The changes to the seasons were in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and resulted in a higher number of games during the first quarter of 2021 as compared to the same prior year period. The increase in sports rights amortization was moderated by reductions in rights fees resulting from the decisions made by the NBA and NHL to reduce the overall number of games to be played in the 2020-2021 season. We expect media programming and production expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2021 to increase as compared to the three months ended March 31, 2021, primarily due to the start of the MLB season. See discussion under The Impact of COVID-19 on our Results of Operations for further discussion.

Media selling, general, and administrative expenses. Media selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily related to a $3 million increase of management services agreement fees, a $2 million increase in information technology expenses, and a $1 million increase in employee compensation cost.

Depreciation and amortization expenses. Depreciation and amortization expenses decreased $26 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a decrease in amortization expense due to lower intangible asset values as a result of the impairment we recognized in 2020.

Corporate general and administrative expenses. See explanation under Corporate and Unallocated Expenses.

Income from equity method investments. Income from equity method investments for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 was $13 million and $6 million, respectively, and is primarily related to our investment in the YES Network.

(a) Non-media revenues for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 includes $2 million and $8 million, respectively, of intercompany revenues related to certain services and sales provided to the broadcast segment, which are eliminated in consolidation.

(b) Non-media expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 include $1 million of intercompany expenses related to certain services and sales provided to the broadcast segment, which are eliminated in consolidation.

(c) Media expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 include $2 million and $1 million, respectively, of intercompany expenses primarily related to certain services and sales provided to the broadcast segment, which are eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue. Media revenue increased $7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to an increase in advertising revenue related to our owned networks and digital initiatives. Non-media revenue decreased $27 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a decrease in broadcast equipment sales due to the expected winding down of the FCC's National Broadband Plan repack process.

Expenses. Media expenses decreased $6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to decreased programming and operating costs of our owned networks. Non-media expenses decreased $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a decrease in the costs of goods associated with our lower broadcast equipment sales.

CORPORATE AND UNALLOCATED EXPENSES

The following table presents our corporate and unallocated expenses for the periods presented (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31, Percent Change Increase/ 2021 2020 (Decrease)

Corporate general and administrative expenses $ 61 $ 49 24% Interest expense including amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs $ 151 $ 180 (16)% Other income (expense), net $ 124 $ (4) n/m Income tax benefit $ 9 $ 12 (25)% Net income attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests $ (4) $ (20) (80)% Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests $ (34) $ (8) n/m

n/m — not meaningful

Corporate general and administrative expenses. The table above and the explanation that follows cover total consolidated corporate general and administrative expenses. Corporate general and administrative expenses increased in total by $12 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a $20 million increase in employee compensation cost, a portion of which is related to severance and other termination benefits related to the reduction-in-force completed in the first quarter, partially offset by a $6 million decrease in legal, consulting, and regulatory costs, primarily related to the litigation discussed under Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies within the Consolidated Financial Statements and the acquisition of the Bally RSNs.

We expect corporate general and administrative expenses to decrease in the second quarter of 2021.

Interest expense including amortization of debt discount and deferred financing costs. The table above and explanation that follows cover total consolidated interest expense. Interest expense decreased by $29 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a $19 million decrease in DSG interest expense related to decreases in LIBOR and refinancing of existing indebtedness and a $12 million decrease in STG interest expense due to decreases in LIBOR and refinancing of existing indebtedness, partially offset by a $3 million increase related to the A/R Facility.

We expect interest expense to increase in amount in the second quarter of 2021.

Other income, net. Other income, net increased by $128 million for the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to a $122 million increase in the value of investments recorded at fair value.

Income tax benefit. The effective tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2021 was a benefit of 53.8% as compared to a benefit of 8.3% during the same period in 2020. The increase in the benefit for the three months ended March 31, 2021, as compared to the same period in 2020, is primarily due to substantially magnified impact of 2021 discrete items as a result of small 2021 pre-tax income partially offset by a greater benefit in 2020 of federal tax credits related to investments in sustainability initiatives.

Net income attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests. Net income attributable to the redeemable noncontrolling interests decreased $16 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily due to redemptions of a portion of the outstanding preferred equity subsequent to March 31, 2020.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests. Net income attributable to the noncontrolling interests increased $26 million during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020, primarily as a result of the launch of Marquee at the end of February 2020.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

As of March 31, 2021, we had net working capital of approximately $2,048 million, including $941 million in cash and cash equivalent balances. Cash on hand, cash generated by our operations, and borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Agreements are used as our primary sources of liquidity.

The Bank Credit Agreements each include a financial maintenance covenant, the first lien leverage ratio (as defined in the respective Bank Credit Agreement), which requires such applicable ratio not to exceed 4.5x and 6.25x, measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter, for STG and DSG, respectively. The respective financial maintenance covenant is only applicable if 35% or more of the capacity (as a percentage of total commitments) under the respective revolving credit facility, measured as of the last day of each quarter, is utilized under such revolving credit facility as of such date. Since there was no utilization under either of the revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2021, neither STG nor DSG was subject to the respective financial maintenance covenant under their applicable Bank Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2021, the STG first lien leverage ratio was below 4.5x and the DSG first lien leverage ratio exceeded 6.25x. We expect that the DSG first lien leverage ratio will remain above 6.25x for at least the next 12 months, which will restrict our ability to fully utilize the DSG revolving credit facility. We do not currently expect to have more than 35% of the capacity of the DSG revolving credit facility outstanding as of any quarterly measurement date during the next twelve months, therefore we do not expect DSG will be subject to the financial maintenance covenant. The Bank Credit Agreements contain other restrictions and covenants with which the respective entities were in compliance as of March 31, 2021.

On April 1, 2021, STG amended the STG Bank Credit Agreement to raise the STG Term Loan B-3 in an aggregate principal amount of $740 million, the proceeds of which were used to refinance a portion of STG's term loan maturing in January 2024. The STG Term Loan B-3 matures in April 2028 and bears interest at LIBOR (or successor rate) plus 3.00%.

The A/R Facility enables DSG to raise incremental funding for the ongoing business needs of the local sports segment. The maximum funding availability under the A/R Facility is the lesser of $250 million and the sum of the lowest aggregate loan balance since November 1, 2020 plus $50 million. The amount of actual availability under the A/R Facility is subject to change based on the level of eligible receivables sold by certain indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of DSG identified therein (Originators) to DSPV and certain reserves. Eligibility of the receivables is determined by a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, credit ratings of the Originators’ customers, customer concentration levels, and certain characteristics of the accounts receivable being transferred. As of March 31, 2021, the total commitment was $216 million and the balance of the loans under the A/R Facility was $173 million.

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, there were no redemptions of preferred equity. The balance of the Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Equity as of March 31, 2021 was $170 million, net of issuance costs.

We anticipate that existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from our operations, and borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Agreements and A/R Facility will be sufficient to satisfy our debt service obligations, capital expenditure requirements, and working capital needs for the next 12 months. However, certain factors, including but not limited to, the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting effect on the economy, our advertisers, Distributors, and their subscribers, could affect our liquidity and our first lien leverage ratio which could affect our ability to access the full borrowing capacity under the Bank Credit Agreements. For our long- term liquidity needs, in addition to the sources described above, we may rely upon various sources, such as but not limited to, the issuance of long-term debt, the issuance of equity or other instruments convertible into or exchangeable for equity, or the sale of Company assets. However, there can be no assurance that additional financing or capital or buyers of our Company assets will be available, or that the terms of any transactions will be acceptable or advantageous to us.

Sources and Uses of Cash

The following table sets forth our cash flows for the periods presented (in millions):

Three Months Ended March 31,

2021 2020

Net cash flows used in operating activities $ (206) $ (39)

Cash flows used in investing activities: Acquisition of property and equipment $ (20) $ (46) Proceeds from the sale of assets 28 18 Purchases of investments (49) (25) Spectrum repack reimbursements 14 24 Other, net 1 6

Net cash flows used in investing activities $ (26) $ (23)

Cash flows (used in) from financing activities: Proceeds from notes payable and commercial bank financing $ 6 $ 873 Repayments of notes payable, commercial bank financing and finance leases (26) (20) Dividends paid on Class A and Class B Common Stock (15) (18) Repurchase of outstanding Class A Common Stock — (176) Redemption of redeemable subsidiary preferred equity — (198) Distributions to noncontrolling interests, net (30) (3) Distributions to redeemable noncontrolling interests (2) (378) Other, net (18) (9)

Net cash flows (used in) from financing activities $ (85) $ 71

Operating Activities

Net cash flows used in operating activities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily related to higher payments for production and overhead costs, distributor rebate payments and a decrease in cash collections from Distributors.

Investing Activities

Net cash flows used in investing activities increased during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The increase is primarily related to lower spectrum repack reimbursements and higher contributions to investments, offset by lower capital expenditures and the sale of WDKA and KBSI during the first quarter of 2021.

Financing Activities

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Net cash flows from financing activities decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2021 when compared to the same period in 2020. The decrease is primarily related to lower proceeds from the issuance of debt during the first quarter of 2021 compared to the draw on the STG and DSG revolving credit facilities during the first quarter of 2020, offset by the repurchase of Class A Common Stock, the redemption of the Redeemable Subsidiary Preferred Equity, and distributions to the redeemable noncontrolling interests during the first quarter of 2020.

In February and May 2021, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share. Future dividends on our shares of common stock, if any, will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on several factors including our results of operations, cash requirements and surplus, financial condition, covenant restrictions, and other factors that the Board of Directors may deem relevant.

CONTRACTUAL CASH OBLIGATIONS

During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we entered into agreements which increased estimated contractual amounts owed for program rights and content for the remainder of 2021, years 2022-2023, 2024-2025, and 2026 and thereafter by $64 million, $159 million, $128 million, and $97 million, respectively, as of March 31, 2021.

As of March 31, 2021, there were no other material changes to our contractual cash obligations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

There were no changes to critical accounting policies and estimates from those disclosed in Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates under Part II. Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations within our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to create significant uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. It is reasonably possible that these uncertainties will continue to impact our estimates related to, but not limited to, revenue recognition, goodwill and intangible assets, sports programming rights, and income taxes. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. See Distribution Revenue in Revenue Recognition and Sports Programming Rights under Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies within the Consolidated Financial Statements for a further discussion on how COVID-19 has impacted distribution revenue and sports rights expense. Our estimates may further change in the future as the COVID-19 pandemic continues, new events occur, and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes from the quantitative and qualitative discussion about market risk previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures and Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the design and effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures and our internal control over financial reporting as of March 31, 2021.

The term "disclosure controls and procedures," as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures.

The term "internal control over financial reporting," as defined in Rules 13a-15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, means a process designed by, or under the supervision of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer and effected by our Board of Directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and includes those policies and procedures that:

• pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of our assets; • provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP and that our receipts and expenditures are being made in accordance with authorizations of management or our Board of Directors; and • provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of our assets that could have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.

Assessment of Effectiveness of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2021, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended March 31, 2021, that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

Management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures or our internal control over financial reporting will prevent all errors and all fraud. A control system, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within our company have been detected. These inherent limitations include the realities that judgments in decision-making can be faulty and that breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake. Additionally, controls can be circumvented by the individual acts of some persons, by collusion of two or more people, or by management’s override of the control. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions; over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

We are party to lawsuits and claims from time to time in the ordinary course of business. Actions currently pending are in various stages and no material judgments or decisions have been rendered by hearing boards or courts in connection with such actions.

SINCLAIR BROADCAST GROUP, INC.

FORM OF RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT

Restricted Stock Agreement between Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), and the eligible employee to whom Stock is being granted pursuant hereto (the “Recipient”).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Company had adopted the 1996 Long-Term Incentive Plan of Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (the “Plan”) to reward certain key individuals for making major contributions to the Company and its subsidiaries by enabling them to acquire shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (“Common Stock”), of the Company;

WHEREAS, the Recipient is employed by the Company in an important capacity and has made a major contribution to the Company;

WHERAS, the granting of stock to Recipient hereunder is conditioned upon Recipient’s agreement to the confidentiality and noncompetition covenants contained herein and Recipient is willing to agree to such covenants; and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to award to the Recipient shares of Common Stock of the Company, subject to the restrictions set forth in this Agreement.

The parties hereto desire to enter into this Agreement in order to set forth the terms of the Stock Grant. Accordingly, the parties hereto agree as follows:

AGREEMENTS

1. Award of Shares Subject to Restrictions. The Company awards to the Recipient, and the Recipient acknowledges the award by the Company, of that number of shares of Common Stock (the “Restricted Stock”) which were previously identified to the Recipient. The date of the award of the Restricted Stock shall for all purposes be the “Grant Date”, and the value of the Restricted Stock shall be the number of shares granted to the recipient multiplied by the closing price of the Common Stock as reported on the NASDAQ National Market for the date of the grant.

2. Restrictions. Recipient shall not voluntarily or involuntarily transfer, sell, pledge, assign, give, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of (“transfer”) any shares of Restricted Stock until the restrictions on such shares lapse in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document 3. Lapse of Restrictions. The restrictions on transfer of the shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse according to the following schedule:

4. Termination of Employment.

(a) Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the restrictions set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement have not yet lapsed shall be forfeited on the date of termination of Recipient’s employment with the Company (the “Termination Date”) if Recipient’s employment with the Company is terminated for any reason other than due to a Qualifying Termination (as defined below), before the date on which the restrictions on transfer of the shares of the Restricted Stock lapse. Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the restrictions set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement have not yet lapsed shall vest immediately on the Termination Date if Recipient’s employment with the Company is terminated due to a Qualifying Termination before the date on which the restrictions on transfer of the shares of Restricted Stock lapse; provided, in the case of termination as a result of Retirement, Recipient agrees to enter into an agreement reasonably requested by Company which provides for (a) a full release of the Company for any claims Recipient may have, (b) an agreement not to disparage the Company and (c) an agreement to comply with any previously agreed covenants not to compete or solicit the Company’s employees and/or customers to which Recipient is otherwise subject.

(b) For the purposes of this Agreement, the term “Cause” shall have the meaning set forth in Recipient’s employment agreement with the Company or, in the event there is no employment agreement between Recipient and the Company, shall mean any of the following: (i) the wrongful appropriation for Recipient’s own use or benefit of property or money entrusted to Recipient by the Company or its direct or indirect subsidiaries, (ii) the conviction or granting of a Probation Before Judgment (or similar such finding or determination if not by a Maryland court) of a crime involving moral turpitude, (iii) Recipient’s continued willful disregard of Recipient’s duties and responsibilities hereunder after written notice of such disregard and the reasonable opportunity to correct such disregard, (iv) Recipient’s continued violation of the Company policy after written notice of such violations (such policy may include policies as to drug or alcohol abuse) and the reasonable opportunity to cure such violations, (v) any willful misconduct or gross negligence by Recipient which is reasonably likely (in the opinion of the Company’s FCC counsel) to actually jeopardize a Federal Communications Commission license of any broadcast station owned directly or indirectly by the Company or programmed, directly or indirectly, by the Company; or (vi) the continued insubordination of Recipient and/or Recipient’s repeated failure to follow the reasonable directives of the Recipient’s supervisor or the Company’s Board of Directors after written notice of such insubordination or the failure to follow such reasonable directives.

(c) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Disability” shall have the meaning set forth in Recipient’s employment agreement with the Company or, in the event there is no employment agreement between Recipient and the Company, shall mean Recipient’s inability, whether mental or physical, to perform the normal duties of Recipient’s position for ninety (90) days (which need not be consecutive) during any twelve (12) consecutive month period, and the effective date of such disability shall be the day next following such ninetieth (90th) day. If the Company and Recipient are unable to agree as to whether Recipient is disabled, the question will

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document be decided by a physician to be paid by the Company and designated by the Company, subject to the approval of Recipient (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld) whose determination will be final and binding on the parties.

(d) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Good Reason” shall have the meaning set forth in Recipient’s employment agreement with the Company or, in the event there is no employment agreement between Recipient and the Company, shall mean any of the following: (i) a more than five percent (5.0%) reduction in Recipient’s compensation (other than a reduction consistent with a company-wide reduction in pay affecting substantially all executive employees of the Company and its subsidiaries), (ii) the relocation of Recipient’s principal place of employment more than twenty (20) miles from its present location or, (iii) a material reduction in the duties of Recipient or a material change in Recipient’s working conditions.

(f) For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Retirement” shall mean Recipient’s voluntary separation from service with the Company either (i) after age 65 or (ii) after age 55, if at such time Recipient has had at least ten (10) years of service with the Company.

5. Change in Control. Notwithstanding the provisions in Sections 3 and 4 set forth above, shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the restrictions have not yet lapsed shall immediately vest in the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving corporation, or a transaction in which another individual or entity becomes the owner of fifty percent (50%) or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company.

6. Relationship to Plan. The award of Restricted Stock is issued in accordance with and subject to all of the terms, conditions and provisions of the Plan, as amended from time to time, and administrative interpretations thereunder, if any, which have been adopted by the Committee thereunder and are in effect on the date hereof. Except as defined herein or otherwise stated, capitalized terms shall have the same meanings ascribed to them under the Plan.

7. No Rights as Stockholder. The Recipient shall not have any rights as a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the shares of Restricted Stock until the restrictions on such shares of Restricted Stock have lapsed.

8. No Right to Employment. The award of shares of Restricted Stock pursuant to this Agreement shall not confer on the Recipient any right to continue in the service of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affect the right of the Company or any subsidiary to terminate Recipient’s employment at any time; and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed a waiver or modification of any provision contained in any agreement between the Recipient and the Company or any parent or subsidiary thereof. This Agreement shall not affect the right of the Company or any parent or subsidiary thereof to reclassify, recapitalize, or otherwise change its capital or debt structure or to merge, consolidate, convey any or all of its assets, dissolve, liquidate, wind up, or otherwise reorganize.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document 9. Withholding for Tax Purposes. At the election of Recipient made through an online election process established by, or on behalf of the Company, either (a) Common Stock transferable to the Recipient hereunder shall be reduced by a number of shares of Common Stock with a Fair Market Value (calculated on the trading day preceding the date on which the taxable event occurs as described below) which the Company is required to withhold under the then applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or its successors, or any other federal, state or local tax withholding requirement (“Withholding”) or (b) Recipient shall pay to the Company in immediately available funds the amount of such Withholding; provided, if Recipient does not make such election prior to the time that such Withholding would be required, Recipient shall be deemed to have elected the action under clause (a) of this Section 9. Such reductions shall occur, and Withholding shall be applicable, at the times restrictions on the Restricted Shares lapse in accordance with Sections 3 and 4 of this Agreement and the rules under the Code and, in order to facilitate withholding by the Company at such times, Recipient shall make no election under Section 83(b) of the Code. The provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any Restricted Stock Award Agreement entered into by the Company and Recipient prior to the date hereof, shall replace Section 9 in any such prior agreements and this Agreement shall serve as an amendment to any such prior agreement to such extent. An online election made by Recipient pursuant to this Section 9 shall remain in effect with respect to all Restricted Stock held by Recipient until such time, as any, that Recipient utilizes the online election process to make an alternative election.

10. Restrictive Legend. Any certificates issued for the shares with respect to which the restrictions set forth in Section 3 have not lapsed shall be inscribed with the following label:

“The shares of stock evidenced by this certificate are subject to the terms and restrictions of a Restricted Stock Award Agreement.

C. The parties hereto desire to amend and restate any and all understandings and agreements between them that precede the Effective Date and relate in any manner to the terms and conditions of Employee’s employment, including without limitation, the Employment Agreement effective July 14, 1997, as amended July 27, 2011, which shall be superseded and replaced by this Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, IN CONSIDERATION OF the mutual covenants herein contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Duties.

The Work Product shall upon creation become the property of Company, and all evidence thereof shall, without any compensation to Employee, become the property of Company. All of the Work Product constitutes “work made for hire” as such term is defined in Section 101 of the U.S. Copyright Act of 1976 (U.S.C. 17 §101), as amended, such that all copyrights in such Work Product, in any and all media and through all forms of communication or transmission, whether presently known or hereafter developed, are the exclusive property of Company (or its designee).

(3) take all reasonable steps necessary, or reasonably requested by any of the SBG Entities, to ensure that all Confidential Information is kept confidential for the use and benefit of the SBG Entities; and

(4) upon termination of Employee's employment or at any other time any of the SBG Entities in writing so request, promptly deliver to such SBG Entity all materials constituting Confidential Information relating to such SBG Entity (including all copies) that are in Employee's possession or under Employee's control. If requested by any of the SBG Entities to return any Confidential Information, Employee will not make or retain any copy of or extract from such materials.

(b) For purposes of this Section 5.1, Confidential Information means any proprietary or confidential information of or relating to any of the SBG Entities that is not generally available to the public.

As used herein, "participate" means lending one's name to, acting as a consultant or adviser for, being employed by, or acquiring any direct or indirect interest in any business or enterprise, whether as a stockholder, partner, officer, director, employee, consultant, or otherwise.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document (b) While employed by the Company or any of the SBG Entities, and for twelve (12) months thereafter (regardless of the reason why Employee's employment is terminated), Employee will not directly or indirectly:

(1) hire, attempt to hire, or to assist any other person or entity in hiring or attempting to hire any employee of any of the SBG Entities or any person who was an employee of any of the SBG Entities within the prior twelve (12) month period; or

(d) In the event that (i) SBG or STG places all or substantially all of its television broadcast stations up for sale within twelve (12) months after termination of Employee's employment hereunder, or (ii) Employee's employment is terminated in connection with the disposition of all or substantially all of such television broadcast stations (whether by sale of assets, equity, or otherwise), Employee agrees to be bound by, and to execute such additional instruments as may be necessary or desirable to evidence Employee's agreement to be bound by, the terms and conditions of any non-competition provisions contained in the purchase and sale agreement for such stations, without receiving any consideration therefore beyond that expressed in this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall Employee be bound by, or obligated to enter into, any non-competition provisions referred to in this Section 5.2 that extend beyond twelve (12) months from the date of termination of Employee's employment hereunder or whose scope extends the scope of the non-competition provisions set forth in Section 5.2(a) of this Agreement.

(e) The twelve (12)) month time periods referred to in this Section 5.2 of this Agreement shall be tolled on a day-for-day basis for each day during which Employee participates in any activity in violation of Section 5.2 of this Agreement so that Employee shall be restricted from engaging in the conduct referred to in Section 5.2 of this Agreement for a full twelve (12) months.

(f) For purposes of this Section 5.2, Designated Market Area shall mean the designated market area ("DMA") as defined by The A.C. Nielsen Company (or such other similar term as is used from time to time in the television broadcast community).

5.3. Acknowledgment. Employee acknowledges and agrees that this Agreement (including, without limitation, the provisions of Sections 5 and 6 of this Agreement) is a condition of Employee being employed by the Company, Employee having access to Confidential Information, being eligible to receive the items referred to in Section 3 of this

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document Agreement, Employee's advancement at the Company, and Employee being eligible to receive other special benefits from the Company; and further, that this Agreement is entered into, and is reasonably necessary, to protect the SBG Entities' investment in Employee's training and development, and to protect the goodwill, trade secrets, business practices, and other business interests of the SBG Entities.

6. Remedies.

6.1. Injunctive Relief. The covenants and obligations contained in Section 5 of this Agreement relate to matters which are of a special, unique, and extraordinary character, and a violation of any of the terms of such Section 5 will cause irreparable injury to the SBG Entities, the amount of which will be impossible to estimate or determine and which cannot be adequately compensated. Therefore, SBG Entities will be entitled to an injunction, a restraining order, or other equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction (subject to such terms and conditions that the court determines appropriate) restraining any violation or threatened violation of any of such terms by Employee and such other persons as the court orders. The parties acknowledge and agree that judicial action, rather than arbitration, is appropriate with respect to the enforcement of the provisions of Section 5 of this Agreement. The forum for any litigation hereunder shall be the Circuit Court of Baltimore County or the United States District Court (Northern Division) sitting in Baltimore, Maryland.

6.2. Cumulative Rights and Remedies. Rights and remedies provided by Section 5 of this Agreement are cumulative and are in addition to any other rights and remedies any of the SBG Entities may have at law or equity.

7. Absence of Restrictions. Employee warrants and represents that Employee is not a party to or bound by any agreement, contract, or understanding, whether of employment or otherwise, with any third person or entity which would in any way restrict or prohibit Employee from undertaking or performing employment with the Company in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(ii) The acquisition by any Person as Beneficial Owner (as defined in Section 8.1 (d) of this Agreement), directly or indirectly, of securities of SBG immediately following which such Person beneficially owns securities of SBG representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power represented by SBG's then outstanding voting securities.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document 9.7. Severability. If the scope of any provision contained in this Agreement is too broad to permit enforcement of such provision to its full extent, then such provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and Employee hereby consents that such scope may be reformed or modified accordingly and enforced as reformed or modified in any proceeding brought to enforce such provision. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence, whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision, to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, shall not be deemed to be a part of this Agreement, and shall not invalidate the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

9.8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement of Employee and the Company regarding Employee's employment by the Company. This Agreement amends, supersedes, and replaces all prior agreements and understandings, written or verbal, formal or informal, among the parties with respect to the employment of Employee by the Company, including the subject matter of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended or modified except by agreement in writing, signed by the party against whom enforcement of any waiver, amendment, modification, or discharge is sought. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement is not intended to supersede, amend, replace or in any way effect any Restricted Stock Award Agreement between SBG and Employee, all of which agreements shall remain in full force and effect without modification thereto.

9.9. Interpretation. This Agreement is being entered into among competent and experienced businesspersons (who have had an opportunity to consult with counsel), and any ambiguous language in this Agreement will not necessarily be construed against any particular party as the drafter of such language.

9.11. Taxes. The Company may withhold from any payments under this Agreement all applicable federal, state, city, or other taxes required by applicable law to be so withheld as determined by the Company in its discretion.

The Company and Employee do hereby jointly and severally waive their right to a trial by jury in any action or proceeding to which both are parties arising out of, or in any manner pertaining to, this Agreement. It is understood and agreed that this waiver constitutes a waiver of the right to trial by jury of all claims against all parties to such actions or proceedings. This waiver is knowingly, voluntarily, and willingly made by Employee and the Company, and each represents and warrants to the other that no representations of facts or opinion have been made by any person to induce this waiver or to in any way modify or nullify its effect. Still further, Employee and the Company each represents to the other that each has been represented by counsel selected by such party to review or prepare this Agreement or, if not represented, that such

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document party has been advised, and has had the opportunity, to seek the advice of independent legal counsel to review this Agreement prior to signing this Agreement.

9.13. Exclusion from ERISA and Retirement and Fringe Benefit Computation. Employee and the Company do hereby jointly and severally acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall not be regarded as an “employee benefit plan” under 29 U.S.C. § 1002(3); provided, however, that if this Agreement is ever regarded as an “employee benefit plan” under 29 U.S.C. § 1002(3), Employee and the Company acknowledge and agree that this Agreement shall be regarded as a plan which is unfunded and is maintained primarily for the purpose of providing deferred compensation for a select group of management or highly compensated employees under 29 U.S.C. § 1051(2). Unless specifically provided otherwise pursuant to a separate plan or agreement, this Agreement (except for Section 3.1) shall not be taken into account as “wages,” “salary” or “compensation” in determining eligibility or benefits under (i) any pension, retirement, profit sharing or other qualified or nonqualified plan of deferred compensation, (ii) any employee welfare or fringe benefit plan, including, but not limited to, group life insurance and disability, or (iii) any form of extraordinary pay, including, but not limited to, bonuses, sick pay, and vacation pay.

9.14. Section 409A Compliance. Employee and the Company intend that the payments and benefits provided under this Agreement shall either be exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be construed in a manner that affects the Employee’s and the Company’s intent to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A. Nevertheless, the tax treatment of the benefits provided under the Plan is not warranted or guaranteed. Neither the Company nor its respective directors, officers, employees or advisers shall be held liable for any taxes, interest, penalties or other monetary amounts owed by the Employee as a result of this Agreement. This Agreement may not be amended in any way that results in a violation of section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code or any regulatory or other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service thereunder. In particular, except to the extent permitted by regulatory or other guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service under section 409A(a)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, no amendment of this Agreement shall in any way (including a change in form of distribution) result in acceleration of the timing or amount of any payment (or any portion thereof) of “deferred compensation” that is due under this Agreement. An amendment that permits acceleration for any one or more of the reasons that constitute exceptions to the prohibition on acceleration of payments, pursuant to Treas. Regs. § 1.409A-3(j) (as presently written or as hereafter amended, finalized, replaced or supplemented), shall not be deemed to be in violation of this Section 9.14. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Employee is regarded as a “specified employee” within the meaning of section 409A(a)(2)(B) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, he may not receive any payment(s) of “deferred compensation” upon any “separation from service” (as defined in Section 4.1(e)), unless such payment(s) are made on or after the date that is six (6) months after the date of such separation from service (or if earlier, the date of death of such specified employee). Instead, any such payments to which such specified employee would otherwise be entitled during the first six (6) months following such separation from service shall be accumulated and paid on the first day of the seventh (7th) month following the date of separation from service.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document 9.15. No Right to Employment. Nothing herein contained is intended to or shall be construed as conferring upon Employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company.

9.16. Enforcement. The location of any arbitration regarding this Agreement shall be Baltimore County, Maryland. The forum for any litigation involving this Agreement shall be the Circuit Court of Baltimore County or the United States District Court (Northern Division) sitting in Baltimore, Maryland. In the event that either party institutes an action to enforce or interpret any provision of this Agreement, the non-prevailing party shall pay to the prevailing party all costs and expenses (including a reasonable sum for attorneys’ fees and all expert witness fees) incurred by the prevailing party in connection with any such action as determined by the finder of fact in such proceeding.

9.17. Independent Legal Counsel. The undersigned understand and acknowledge that this Agreement was prepared by the Company. The undersigned understand that Employee and the Company may be adverse to each other regarding terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The undersigned acknowledge that counsel to the Company has not represented Employee in connection with the preparation of this Agreement nor provided Employee with any legal or other advice in connection with this Agreement and that Employee has been advised and urged to seek independent professional legal, tax, and financial advice in connection with deciding to enter into this Agreement.

9.18. Arbitration and Extension of Time. Except as specifically provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, any dispute or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, as an individual or as part of a class, shall be determined and settled by arbitration in Baltimore County, Maryland in accordance with the Commercial Rules of the American Arbitration Association then in effect, and the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1 et seq., and judgment upon the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. The expenses of the arbitration shall be borne by the non-prevailing party to the arbitration, including, but not limited to, the cost of experts, evidence, and legal counsel, as determined by the arbitrator(s) in any such proceeding. Whenever any action is required to be taken under this Agreement within a specified period of time and the taking of such action is materially affected by a matter submitted to arbitration, such period shall automatically be extended by the number of days, plus ten (10) that are taken for the determination of that matter by the arbitrator(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties agree to use their best reasonable efforts to minimize the costs and frequency of arbitration hereunder.

9.19 Payment to Beneficiaries and Beneficiary Designation.

(a) In the event of Employee’s death at a time when Employee is entitled to receive but has not yet received any cash payments pursuant to this Agreement, any such remaining payments shall be paid to Employee’s beneficiaries.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document (b) Simultaneously with the execution of this Agreement, Employee shall designate one or more beneficiaries to receive the cash payments referred to in Section 9.19(a) of this Agreement. Such beneficiary designation shall be set forth in Exhibit C attached hereto and made a part hereof, and may be modified by Employee at any time, and from time to time, by execution of a new Exhibit C. Each designation of beneficiary will revoke all prior designations by Employee.

(c) If the primary beneficiaries named by Employee die before Employee, and there are no living contingent beneficiaries named by Employee, then the Company shall direct distribution of the cash payments payable pursuant to this Agreement to the legal representative of the estate of Employee.

9.20 Payments to Minors. If any person to whom any cash payment is due under this Agreement is a minor, or is reasonably found by the Company to be incompetent by reason of physical or mental disability, the Company shall have the right to cause such payments becoming due to such person to be made to another for his benefit, without responsibility of the Company to see to the application of the payment of any such payments, and such payment will constitute a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Company with respect thereto.

Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document NATURE OF 3 Months Ended OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF Mar. 31, 2021 SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] NATURE OF OPERATIONS NATURE OF OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: AND SUMMARY OF Nature of Operations SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (the Company) is a diversified television media company with national reach and a strong focus on providing high-quality content on our local television stations, regional sports networks, and digital platforms. The content, distributed through our broadcast platform and third-party platforms, consists of programming provided by third-party networks and syndicators, local news, college and professional sports, and other original programming produced by us. Additionally, we own digital media products that are complementary to our extensive portfolio of television station related digital properties. Outside of our media related businesses, we operate technical services companies focused on supply and maintenance of broadcast transmission systems as well as research and development for the advancement of broadcast technology, and we manage other non-media related investments.

As of March 31, 2021, we had two reportable segments for accounting purposes, broadcast and local sports. The broadcast segment consists primarily of our 186 broadcast television stations in 87 markets, which we own, provide programming and operating services pursuant to agreements commonly referred to as local marketing agreements (LMAs), or provide sales services and other non-programming operating services pursuant to other outsourcing agreements (such as joint sales agreements (JSAs) and shared services agreements (SSAs)). These stations broadcast 628 channels as of March 31, 2021. For the purpose of this report, these 186 stations and 628 channels are referred to as "our" stations and channels. The local sports segment consists primarily of our Bally Sports network brands (the Bally RSNs), the Marquee Sports Network (Marquee) joint venture and a minority equity interest in the Yankee Entertainment and Sports Network, LLC (YES Network). We refer to the Bally RSNs and Marquee as "the RSNs". The RSNs and YES Network own the exclusive rights to air, among other sporting events, the games of professional sports teams in designated local viewing areas. Principles of Consolidation

The consolidated financial statements for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 are unaudited. In the opinion of management, such financial statements have been presented on the same basis as the audited consolidated financial statements and include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of operations, consolidated statements of comprehensive income, consolidated statements of equity (deficit) and redeemable noncontrolling interests, and consolidated statements of cash flows for these periods as adjusted for the adoption of recent accounting pronouncements discussed below.

Our estimates may change as new events occur and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

The following table presents our revenue disaggregated by type and segment (in millions):

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document For the three months ended March 31, 2021 Broadcast Local sports Other Eliminations Total

Certain of our distribution arrangements contain provisions that require the Company to deliver a minimum number of live professional sports games or tournaments during a defined period which usually corresponds with a calendar year. If the minimum threshold is not met, we may be obligated to refund a portion of the distribution fees received if shortfalls are not cured within a specified period of time. Our ability to meet these requirements is primarily driven by the delivery of games by the professional sports leagues. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had not historically paid any material rebates under these contractual provisions as it is unusual for there to be an event which is significant enough to preclude the Company from meeting or exceeding these thresholds. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant disruptions to the normal operations of the professional sports leagues resulting in delays and uncertainty with respect to regularly scheduled games. Decisions made by the leagues during the second quarter of 2020 regarding the timing and format of the revised 2020 season and decisions made by the NHL and NBA during the fourth quarter of 2020 and first quarter of 2021 regarding the timing and format of their revised 2020-2021 seasons have resulted, in some cases, in our inability to meet these minimum game requirements and the need to reduce revenue based upon estimated rebates due to our distribution customers. Accrued rebates as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $268 million and $420 million, respectively. The decrease in accrued rebates during the three-month period ending March 31, 2021 includes $133 million of payments and $19 million of adjustments related primarily to increases in estimated game counts. As of March 31, 2021, $183 million is reflected in other current liabilities and $85 million is reflected in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We expect these rebates to be paid during 2021 and 2022. There were no rebates accrued during the three-month period ending March 31, 2021. See Subsequent Events within Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Advertising Revenue. We generate advertising revenue primarily from the sale of advertising spots/impressions within our broadcast television, RSN, and digital platforms.

In accordance with ASC 606, we do not disclose the value of unsatisfied performance obligations for (i) contracts with an original expected length of one year or less and (ii) distribution arrangements which are accounted for as a sales/usage based royalty. Deferred Revenue. We record deferred revenue when cash payments are received or due in advance of our performance, including amounts which are refundable. We classify deferred revenue as either current in other current liabilities or long-term in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets based on the timing of when we expect to satisfy our performance obligations. Deferred revenue was $233 million as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, of which $179 million and $184 million, respectively, was reflected in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. Deferred revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, was $17 million and $30 million, respectively.

On November 18, 2020, the Company and Diamond Sports Group, LLC (DSG) entered into an enterprise-wide commercial agreement with Bally's Corporation (Bally's), including providing certain branding integrations in our RSNs, broadcast networks and other properties. These branding integrations include naming rights associated with the majority of our RSNs (other than Marquee). The initial term of this arrangement is 10 years and we expect to begin performing under this arrangement in 2021. The Company received non-cash consideration initially valued at $199 million which is reflected as a contract liability and will be recognized as revenue as the performance obligations under the arrangement are satisfied. No revenue was recognized under this arrangement during the three months ended March 31, 2021. See Note 3. Other Assets for more information.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document losses, and forecasts of future taxable income. In considering these sources of taxable income, we must make certain judgments that are based on the plans and estimates used to manage our underlying businesses on a long-term basis. A valuation allowance has been provided for deferred tax assets related to certain temporary basis differences, interest expense carryforwards under the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) Section 163(j) and a substantial amount of our available state net operating loss carryforwards based on past operating results, expected timing of the reversals of existing temporary basis differences, alternative tax strategies and projected future taxable income.

We do not believe that our liability for unrecognized tax benefits would be materially impacted in the next twelve months, as a result of expected statute of limitations expirations, the application of limits under available state administrative practice exceptions, and the resolution of examination issues and settlements with federal and certain state tax authorities. Share Repurchase ProgramOn August 4, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized an additional $500 million share repurchase authorization in addition to the previous repurchase authorization of $1 billion. There is no expiration date and currently, management has no plans to terminate this program. As of March 31, 2021, the total remaining purchase authorization was $880 million. Subsequent Events

In May 2021, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.20 per share, payable on June 15, 2021 to holders of record at the close of business on June 1, 2021.

Other than those noted in Note 3. Other Assets and Note 4. Notes Payable, Finance Leases, and Commercial Bank Financing, no other subsequent events were noted.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation.

Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document NOTES PAYABLE, 3 Months Ended FINANCE LEASES, AND COMMERCIAL BANK Mar. 31, 2021 FINANCING Debt Disclosure [Abstract] NOTES PAYABLE, NOTES PAYABLE, FINANCE LEASES, AND COMMERCIAL BANK FINANCE LEASES, AND FINANCING: COMMERCIAL BANK Bank Credit Agreements FINANCING Each of the bank credit agreements of Sinclair Television Group, Inc. (STG), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, and DSG (collectively, the Bank Credit Agreements) include a financial maintenance covenant, the first lien leverage ratio (as defined in the respective Bank Credit Agreements), which requires such applicable ratio not to exceed 4.5x and 6.25x, measured as of the end of each fiscal quarter, for STG and DSG, respectively. The respective financial maintenance covenant is only applicable if 35% or more of the capacity (as a percentage of total commitments) under the respective revolving credit facility, measured as of the last day of each quarter, is utilized under such revolving credit facility as of such date. Since there was no utilization under either of the revolving credit facilities as of March 31, 2021, neither STG nor DSG was subject to the respective financial maintenance covenant under their applicable Bank Credit Agreement. As of March 31, 2021, the STG first lien leverage ratio was below 4.5x and the DSG first lien leverage ratio exceeded 6.25x. We expect that the DSG first lien leverage ratio will remain above 6.25x for at least the next 12 months, which will restrict our ability to utilize the full DSG revolving credit facility. We do not currently expect to have more than 35% of the capacity of the DSG revolving credit facility outstanding as of any quarterly measurement date during the next twelve months, therefore we do not expect DSG will be subject to the financial maintenance covenant. The Bank Credit Agreements contain other restrictions and covenants with which the respective entities were in compliance as of March 31, 2021.

Further, DSG’s success is dependent upon the existence and terms of its agreements with distributors, OTT and other streaming providers. We anticipate DSG’s existing cash and cash equivalents, cash flow from our operations, and borrowing capacity will be sufficient to satisfy its debt service obligations, capital expenditure requirements, and working capital needs for the next twelve months. However, certain factors, including but not limited to, the severity and duration of the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting effect on the economy, our advertisers, Distributors, and their subscribers, could affect DSG’s liquidity and ability to maintain a level of cash flows from operating activities sufficient to permit DSG to pay the principal, premium, if any, and interest on its debt.

FCC Litigation Matters

On December 21, 2017, the FCC issued a Notice of Apparent Liability for Forfeiture (NAL) proposing a $13 million fine for alleged violations of the FCC's sponsorship identification rules by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. We filed a response disputing the Commission's findings and the proposed fine.

On May 22, 2020, the FCC released an Order and Consent Decree pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay $48 million to resolve the matters covered by the NAL, the FCC’s investigation of the allegations raised in a Hearing Designation Order, and a retransmission related matter. The Company submitted the $48 million payment on August 19, 2020. As part of the consent decree, the Company also agreed to implement a 4-year compliance plan. Two petitions were filed on June 8, 2020 seeking reconsideration of the Order and Consent Decree. The Company filed an opposition to the petitions on June 18, 2020, and the petitions remain pending. On September 1, 2020, one of the individuals who filed a petition for reconsideration of the Order and Consent Decree filed a petition to deny the license renewal application of WBFF(TV), Baltimore, MD, and the license renewal applications of two other Baltimore, MD stations with which the Company has a JSA or LMA, Deerfield Media station WUTB(TV) and Cunningham station WNUV(TV). The Company filed an opposition to the petition on October 1, 2020, and the petition remains pending.

In certain cases, we have also entered into purchase agreements or options to purchase the license related assets of the licensee. We typically own the majority of the non-license assets of the stations, and in some cases where the licensee acquired the license assets concurrent with our acquisition of the non-license assets of the station, we have provided guarantees to the bank for the licensee’s acquisition financing. The terms of the agreements vary, but generally have initial terms of over five years with several optional renewal terms. Based on the terms of the agreements and the significance of our investment in the stations, we are the primary beneficiary when, subject to the ultimate control of the licensees, we have the power to direct the activities which significantly impact the economic performance of the VIE through the services we provide and we absorb losses and returns that would be considered significant to the VIEs. The fees paid between us and the licensees pursuant to these arrangements are eliminated in consolidation.

The aggregate purchase price of these television stations increases by 6% annually. A portion of the fee is required to be applied to the purchase price to the extent of the 6% increase. The cumulative prepayments made under these purchase agreements were $55 million and $54 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The remaining aggregate purchase price of these stations, net of prepayments, as of both March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, was approximately $54 million. Additionally, we provide services to WDBB-TV pursuant to an LMA, which expires April 22, 2025, and have a purchase option to acquire for $0.2 million.

Sinclair Broadcast Group, Inc. (the Company) is a diversified television media company with national reach and a strong focus on providing high-quality content on our local television stations, regional sports networks, and digital platforms. The content, distributed through our broadcast platform and third-party platforms, consists of programming provided by third-party networks and syndicators, local news, college and professional sports, and other original programming produced by us. Additionally, we own digital media products that are complementary to our extensive portfolio of television station related digital properties. Outside of our media related businesses, we operate technical services companies focused on supply and maintenance of broadcast transmission systems as well as research and development for the advancement of broadcast technology, and we manage other non-media related investments. Principles of Consolidation Principles of Consolidation and Interim Financial Statements The consolidated financial statements include our accounts and those of our wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, and VIEs for which we are the primary beneficiary. Noncontrolling interests represent a minority owner’s proportionate share of the equity in certain of our consolidated entities. Noncontrolling interests which may be redeemed by the holder, and the redemption is outside of our control, are presented as redeemable noncontrolling interests. All intercompany transactions and account balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document income, consolidated statements of equity (deficit) and redeemable noncontrolling interests, and consolidated statements of cash flows for these periods as adjusted for the adoption of recent accounting pronouncements discussed below.

The impact of the outbreak of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to create significant uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and financial markets. It is reasonably possible that these uncertainties could further materially impact our estimates related to, but not limited to, revenue recognition, goodwill and intangible assets, program contract costs, sports programming rights, and income taxes. As a result, many of our estimates and assumptions require increased judgment and carry a higher degree of variability and volatility. Our estimates may change as new events occur and additional information emerges, and such changes are recognized or disclosed in our consolidated financial statements. Recent Accounting Recent Accounting Pronouncements Pronouncements In March 2020, the FASB issued guidance providing optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the discontinuation of the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or by another reference rate expected to be discontinued. The guidance was effective for all entities immediately upon issuance of the update and may be applied prospectively to applicable transactions existing as of or entered into from the date of adoption through December 31, 2022. We are currently evaluating the impact of this guidance, if elected, but do not expect a material impact on our consolidated financial statements. Broadcast Television Broadcast Television Programming Programming We have agreements with multi-channel video programming distributors (MVPDs) and virtual MVPDs (vMVPDs, and together with MVPDs, "Distributors") for the rights to television programming over contract periods, which generally run from one to seven years. Contract payments are made in installments over terms that are generally equal to or shorter than the contract period. Pursuant to accounting guidance for the broadcasting industry, an asset and a liability for the rights acquired and obligations incurred under a license agreement are reported on the balance sheet when the cost of each program is known or reasonably determinable, the program material has been accepted by the licensee in accordance with the conditions of the license agreement, and the program is available for its first showing or telecast. The portion of

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document program contracts which becomes payable within one year is reflected as a current liability in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets

The rights to this programming are reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets at the lower of unamortized cost or fair value. Program contract costs are amortized on a straight- line basis except for contracts greater than three years which are amortized utilizing an accelerated method. Program contract costs estimated by management to be amortized in the succeeding year are classified as current assets. Payments of program contract liabilities are typically made on a scheduled basis and are not affected by amortization or fair value adjustments.

We have multi-year program rights agreements that provide the Company with the right to produce and telecast professional live sports games within a specified territory in exchange for a rights fee. A prepaid asset is recorded for rights acquired related to future games upon payment of the contracted fee. The assets recorded for the acquired rights are classified as current or noncurrent based on the period when the games are expected to be aired. Liabilities are recorded for any program rights obligations that have been incurred but not yet paid at period end. We amortize these programming rights as an expense over each season based upon contractually stated rates. Amortization is accelerated in the event that the stated contractual rates over the term of the rights agreement results in an expense recognition pattern that is inconsistent with the projected growth of revenue over the contractual term. Certain rights agreements with professional teams contain provisions which require the rebate of rights fees paid by the Company if a contractual minimum number of live games are not delivered. As of March 31, 2021, we have estimated rebates due from teams of $42 million which we expect to receive in the second quarter of 2021. The actual amount of rebates to be received will vary depending on changes in the final game counts of each leagues' respective season. Rights fees paid in advance of expense recognition, inclusive of any contractual rebates due to the Company, are included within prepaid sports rights in our consolidated balance sheets. Revenue Recognition Distribution Revenue. We generate distribution revenue through fees received from Distributors for the right to distribute our stations, RSNs, and other properties. Distribution arrangements are generally governed by multi-year contracts and the underlying fees are based upon a contractual monthly rate per subscriber. These arrangements represent licenses of intellectual property; revenue is recognized as the signal or network programming is provided to our customers (as usage occurs) which corresponds with the satisfaction of our performance obligation. Revenue is calculated based upon the contractual rate multiplied by an estimated number of subscribers. Our customers will remit payments based upon actual subscribers a short time after the conclusion of a month, which generally does not exceed 120 days. Historical adjustments to subscriber estimates have not been material.

Copyright © 2021 www.secdatabase.com. All Rights Reserved. Please Consider the Environment Before Printing This Document of games by the professional sports leagues. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company had not historically paid any material rebates under these contractual provisions as it is unusual for there to be an event which is significant enough to preclude the Company from meeting or exceeding these thresholds. The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in significant disruptions to the normal operations of the professional sports leagues resulting in delays and uncertainty with respect to regularly scheduled games. Decisions made by the leagues during the second quarter of 2020 regarding the timing and format of the revised 2020 season and decisions made by the NHL and NBA during the fourth quarter of 2020 and first quarter of 2021 regarding the timing and format of their revised 2020-2021 seasons have resulted, in some cases, in our inability to meet these minimum game requirements and the need to reduce revenue based upon estimated rebates due to our distribution customers. Accrued rebates as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were $268 million and $420 million, respectively. The decrease in accrued rebates during the three-month period ending March 31, 2021 includes $133 million of payments and $19 million of adjustments related primarily to increases in estimated game counts. As of March 31, 2021, $183 million is reflected in other current liabilities and $85 million is reflected in other long-term liabilities in our consolidated balance sheets. We expect these rebates to be paid during 2021 and 2022. There were no rebates accrued during the three-month period ending March 31, 2021. See Subsequent Events within Note 1. Nature of Operations and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies.

Advertising Revenue. We generate advertising revenue primarily from the sale of advertising spots/impressions within our broadcast television, RSN, and digital platforms.

Certain reclassifications have been made to prior years' consolidated financial statements to conform to the current year's presentation. Fair Value Measurements Accounting guidance provides for valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). A fair value hierarchy using three broad levels prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The following is a brief description of those three levels:

(b) On November 18, 2020, we entered into a commercial agreement with Bally's and received warrants and options to acquire common equity in the business. During the three months ended March 31, 2021 we recorded $103 million of fair value adjustments related to these interests. The fair value of the warrants is primarily derived from the quoted trading prices of the underlying common equity adjusted for a 25% discount for lack of marketability (DLOM). The fair value of the options is derived utilizing the Black Scholes valuation model. The most significant inputs include the trading price of the underlying common stock, the exercise price of the options, which range from $30 to $45 per share, and a DLOM of 25%. There are certain restrictions surrounding the sale and ownership of common stock and the Company has agreed not to sell any shares beneficially owned prior to the first anniversary of the agreement. The Company is also precluded from owning more than 4.9% of the outstanding common shares of Bally's, inclusive of shares obtained through the exercise of the warrants and options described above. See Other Investments under Note 3. Other Assets for further discussion.
