following public notice of the occurrence of a Change of Control (which period shall be extended so long as the rating of the Notes is under publicly announced consideration for possible downgrade by any of the Rating Agencies); provided that a
Below Investment 

  
 11 








 
Grade Rating Event otherwise arising by virtue of a particular reduction in rating shall not be deemed to have occurred in respect of a particular Change of Control (and thus shall not be deemed
a Below Investment Grade Rating Event for purposes of the definition of Change of Control Triggering Event hereunder) if any of the Rating Agencies making the reduction in rating to which this definition would otherwise apply does not announce or
publicly confirm or inform the Trustee in writing at its request that the reduction was the result, in whole or in part, of any event or circumstance comprised of or arising as a result of, or in respect of, the applicable Change of Control (whether
or not the applicable Change of Control shall have occurred at the time of the Below Investment Grade Rating Event). 

“Change of Control” means the occurrence of any one of the following:

group other than the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries; 
 (ii) the consummation of any transaction (including,
without limitation, any merger or consolidation) the result of which is that any “person” (as that term is used in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) or group becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rules 13d-3 and
13d-5 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the voting power of the Company’s common equity entitled to vote generally in the election of a majority of directors; 

(iii) the first day on which a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the Company are not Continuing Directors;

 (iv) the adoption of a plan relating to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company; or 

(v) the consummation of a so-called “going private/Rule 13e-3 Transaction” that results in any of the effects
described in paragraph (a)(3)(ii) of Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act (or any successor provision) with respect to our Class A Common Shares, following which the Scripps Family Members beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of
the voting power of the Company’s common equity entitled to vote generally in the election of a majority of directors. 

For the purpose of this definition, “Family Agreement” means the Scripps Family Agreement, dated October 15,
1992, as it may be amended from time to time and “Scripps Family Members” shall mean the “Future Shareholders,” as such term is defined in the Family Agreement, and their respective heirs, executors, legal representatives,

Directors who were members of such Board of Directors at the time of such nomination or election (either by a specific vote or by approval of the Company’s proxy statement in which such member was named as a nominee for election as a director,
without objection to such nomination); provided, that Continuing Directors will include persons not elected by or recommended for election by the then-incumbent Board of Directors if such Board of Directors determines reasonably and in good faith

on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per annum shown above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or, if no interest has been paid, from November 24, 2014. The Company will
pay interest semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, commencing May 15, 2015. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. If any Interest Payment Date is not a Business Day, then the related payment of interest for such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect
as if made on such Interest Payment Date and no further interest shall accrue as a result of such delay. 
 The Company shall pay interest
on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful. 

2. Method of Payment. The Company shall pay interest on the Notes (except defaulted interest) to the persons who are the
registered Holders at the close of business on the Interest Record Date immediately preceding the Interest Payment Date notwithstanding any transfer or exchange of such Note subsequent to such Interest Record Date and prior to such Interest Payment

Company for such purpose; provided that at the option of the Company payment of interest may be made by check mailed to the address of the Holder entitled thereto as such address appears in the Note register. However, the payments of interest, and
any portion of the principal (other than interest payable at maturity or on any redemption or repayment date or the final payment of principal) shall be made by the Paying Agent, upon receipt from the Company of immediately available funds by
12:30 p.m., New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed to between the Company and the Paying Agent or the Company), directly to a Holder (by Federal funds wire transfer or otherwise) if the Holder has delivered written instructions

December 1, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”) and a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 24, 2014, setting forth certain terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Base Indenture (the
“Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”). Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Base Indenture and those made part of the Base Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on
the date of the Base Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of Notes are referred to the Base Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the
Base Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
 The Supplemental Indenture imposes certain
limitations on the incurrence of liens and certain sale and leaseback transactions and limits the Company’s ability to consolidate, merge, convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety. To the extent the terms
of the Supplemental Indenture are inconsistent with the Indenture or this Note, the terms of the Supplemental Indenture shall govern. 
 5.
Optional Redemption. The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices described in the Supplemental Indenture. 

6. Change of Control Offer to Repurchase. If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture)
occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, Holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes pursuant to the offer described in the Supplemental Indenture at a
purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date. 
 7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in
denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000. A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Company may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof
for a period of 15 days before such series is selected for redemption, nor need the Company register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part. 

8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

9. Unclaimed Funds. If funds for the payment of principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent will repay the funds to the Company at its written request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease. 

  
 A-5 








 10. Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The Company may be discharged from its
obligations under the Notes and under the Indenture with respect to the Notes except for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Notes and in the Indenture with respect to
the Notes, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture. 
 11. Amendment; Supplement;
Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes of all series then outstanding affected by such amendment or supplement (voting as one class), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of all the Notes of such series, each series voting as a separate class, (or of all the Notes, as the case may be, voting as a single class) then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto
may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or make any other change that does not
adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note. 
 12. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default (other than certain
bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series then outstanding (voting as a separate class) may declare all of the
Notes to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, the entire principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and
interest accrued thereon, if any, shall immediately become due and payable. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it
has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing Defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 

13. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company as if it were not the Trustee. 
 14. No Recourse Against
Others. No stockholder, director, officer, employee, member or incorporator, as such, of the Company, or any successor Person thereof shall have any liability for any obligation under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Note by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.

December 1, 2011 (the “Base Indenture”) and a Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 24, 2014, setting forth certain terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.04 of the Base Indenture (the
“Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Supplemental Indenture, the “Indenture”). Capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture unless otherwise defined herein. The terms of the Notes include
those stated in the Base Indenture and those made part of the Base Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (15 U.S.C. Sections 77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on
the date of the Base Indenture. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and holders of Notes are referred to the Base Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the terms of the
Base Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
 The Supplemental Indenture imposes certain
limitations on the incurrence of liens and certain sale and leaseback transactions and limits the Company’s ability to consolidate, merge, convey, transfer or lease its properties and assets substantially as an entirety. To the extent the terms
of the Supplemental Indenture are inconsistent with the Indenture or this Note, the terms of the Supplemental Indenture shall govern. 
 5.
Optional Redemption. The Notes are redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of the Company, at any time and from time to time at the redemption prices described in the Supplemental Indenture. 

6. Change of Control Offer to Repurchase. If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture)
occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the Notes, Holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of their Notes pursuant to the offer described in the Supplemental Indenture at a
purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase, subject to the rights of Holders of Notes on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant
Interest Payment Date. 
 7. Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in
denominations of $2,000 and multiples of $1,000. A Holder shall register the transfer of or exchange Notes in accordance with the Indenture. The Company may require a Holder, among other things, to furnish appropriate endorsements and transfer
documents and to pay certain transfer taxes or similar governmental charges payable in connection therewith as permitted by the Indenture. The Company need not issue, authenticate, register the transfer of or exchange any Notes or portions thereof
for a period of 15 days before such series is selected for redemption, nor need the Company register the transfer or exchange of any Note selected for redemption in whole or in part. 

8. Persons Deemed Owners. The registered Holder of a Note shall be treated as the owner of it for all purposes. 

9. Unclaimed Funds. If funds for the payment of principal or interest remain unclaimed for two years, the Trustee and the Paying
Agent will repay the funds to the Company at its written request. After that, all liability of the Trustee and such Paying Agent with respect to such funds shall cease.

 10. Defeasance and Covenant Defeasance. The Company may be discharged from its
obligations under the Notes and under the Indenture with respect to the Notes except for certain provisions thereof, and may be discharged from obligations to comply with certain covenants contained in the Notes and in the Indenture with respect to
the Notes, in each case upon satisfaction of certain conditions specified in the Indenture. 
 11. Amendment; Supplement;
Waiver. Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes and the provisions of the Indenture relating to the Notes may be amended or supplemented with the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the
Notes of all series then outstanding affected by such amendment or supplement (voting as one class), and any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance with certain provisions may be waived with the consent of the Holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of all the Notes of such series, each series voting as a separate class, (or of all the Notes, as the case may be, voting as a single class) then outstanding. Without notice to or consent of any Holder, the parties thereto
may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes to, among other things, cure any ambiguity, defect or inconsistency, provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated Notes, or make any other change that does not
adversely affect the rights of any Holder of a Note. 
 12. Defaults and Remedies. If an Event of Default (other than certain
bankruptcy Events of Default with respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of Notes of this series then outstanding (voting as a separate class) may declare all of the
Notes to be due and payable immediately in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If a bankruptcy Event of Default with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing, the entire principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and
interest accrued thereon, if any, shall immediately become due and payable. Holders of Notes may not enforce the Indenture or the Notes except as provided in the Indenture. The Trustee is not obligated to enforce the Indenture or the Notes unless it
has received indemnity satisfactory to it. The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding to direct the Trustee in its exercise of any trust
or power. The Trustee may withhold from Holders of Notes notice of certain continuing Defaults or Events of Default if it determines that withholding notice is in their interest. 

13. Trustee Dealings with Company. The Trustee under the Indenture, in its individual or any other capacity, may become the
owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Company as if it were not the Trustee. 
 14. No Recourse Against
Others. No stockholder, director, officer, employee, member or incorporator, as such, of the Company, or any successor Person thereof shall have any liability for any obligation under the Notes or the Indenture or for any claim based on, in
respect of or by reason of, such obligations or their creation. Each Holder of a Note by accepting a Note waives and releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for the issuance of the Notes.
