(“TEGNA”) have based these forward-looking statements on Nexstar’s and TEGNA’s current expectations and projections about future events. Forward-looking statements include information preceded by, followed by, or that includes the words “guidance,” “believes,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “could,” or similar expressions. For these statements, Nexstar and TEGNA claim the protection of the safe harbor for forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The forward-looking statements contained in this communication, concerning, among other things, the ultimate outcome, benefits and synergies of any possible transaction between Nexstar and TEGNA and timing thereof, and future financial performance, including changes in net revenue, cash flow and operating expenses, involve risks and uncertainties, and are subject to change based on various important factors, including the timing of and any potential delay in consummating the proposed transaction, the risk that the conditions to closing of the proposed transaction (including the necessary regulatory approvals or the approval of TEGNA’s stockholders) may not be satisfied in the anticipated timeframe or at all and the transaction may not close, the risk that a regulatory approval that may be required for the proposed transaction is delayed, is not obtained or is obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated, the risk of the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Agreement, the risk that Nexstar fails to obtain the necessary financing arrangements set forth in the debt commitment letters delivered pursuant to the Agreement, the risk that any announcements relating to the proposed transaction could have adverse effects on the market price of Nexstar’s or TEGNA’s common stock, the risk that the disruption from the proposed transaction may make it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships, including retaining and hiring key personnel and maintaining relationships with Nexstar’s or TEGNA’s customers, vendors and others with whom it does business, the risks related to disruption of TEGNA management’s attention from TEGNA’s ongoing business operations due to the proposed transaction, the impact of changes in national and regional economies, the ability to service and refinance Nexstar’s and/or TEGNA’s outstanding debt, successful integration of TEGNA (including achievement of synergies and cost reductions), pricing fluctuations in local and national advertising, future regulatory actions and conditions in the television stations’ operating areas, competition from others in the broadcast television markets, volatility in programming costs, the effects of governmental regulation of broadcasting, industry consolidation, technological developments and major world news events. Unless required by law, Nexstar and TEGNA undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed in this communication might not occur. You should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date of this release. For more details on factors that could affect these expectations, please see Nexstar’s and TEGNA’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. This presentation also includes certain forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, which Nexstar and TEGNA management believe to be useful to investors and analysts. A reconciliation to historical non-GAAP figures is provided in the Appendix. Nexstar and TEGNA are unable to provide a full reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures used in the forward-looking measures without unreasonable effort because it is not possible to predict with a reasonable degree of certainty the information necessary to calculate such measures on a GAAP basis because such information is dependent on future events that may be outside of Nexstar’s and TEGNA's control. The unavailable information could have a significant impact on Nexstar's and TEGNA's GAAP financial results. 2

Appendix
Disclosures and Definitions Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Information This investor presentation includes non-GAAP measures including Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin and Adjusted Free Cash Flow. Definitions of these non-GAAP measures, reconciliations to their nearest GAAP measures, and the reasons management believes these measures provide useful information for investors are included herein. These non-GAAP measures are unaudited and should not be considered an alternative to, or more meaningful than GAAP results provided herein but are used by management as an analytical tool to assess its business. In addition, the results are not necessarily indicative of future performance. Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as net income, plus or (minus): transaction, other one-time and restructuring expenses, stock-based compensation expense, depreciation and amortization expense (excluding amortization of broadcast rights), amortization of basis difference of equity method investments, (gain) loss on asset disposal, impairment charges, interest expense, net, pension and other postretirement plans costs (credit), income tax expense (benefit) and other operating and non-operating expense (income). We consider Adjusted EBITDA to be an indicator of our assets’ operating performance. Free Cash Flow is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is calculated as Free Cash Flow plus or (minus): transaction, other one-time and restructuring expenses, changes in operating assets and liabilities, net of acquisitions (excluding changes in income tax payable), taxes paid on sale of assets, pension and other postretirement plans costs (credit), (payments) for capitalized software obligations, proceeds from disposal of assets and insurance recoveries and other expense (income), cash contribution from (distribution to) noncontrolling interests and other items. We consider Adjusted Free Cash Flow to be an indicator of our liquidity. We consider Adjusted Free Cash Flow to be a liquidity measure that provides useful information to management and investors about the amount of cash generated by the business that can be available for use in ongoing operations, debt payments, pension contributions, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and other items. Adjusted Free Cash Flow is not intended to represent the amount of cash flow available for discretionary expenditures as certain items and non- discretionary expenditures, such as changes in working capital, mandatory debt service requirements and pension contributions, are not deducted from this measure. 12
