"Closing on the agreement is contingent upon the completion of a successful due diligence process," said Larry Marbert, Knight Ridder VP/production and facilities. "It could take a few weeks and it could take some months." Closing on the 10 acres will "probably be in a few months," said Pedro Martin. The land, which is now occupied by a low-rise garage, surface parking lots and one, relatively small, two-story building on Biscayne, Ave., was put up for sale in November. Edie Laquer, the broker for Knight Ridder, assisted in securing several offers before Terra emerged as the winner. Plans for the parcel are preliminary, but could include residential, office, hotel and retail components, said David Martin, Terra's chief operating officer. Terra plans to audition architects from around the world to develop a master plan. Under the deal's terms, Terra must provide some 740 parking spaces for Herald employees and not interfere with the newspaper's delivery trucks. In making the announcement Friday, both Knight Ridder and The Herald scotched earlier rumors that the Herald's building, at 1 Herald Plaza, was a part of the deal. "It is not for sale," Marbert stressed. Should Knight Ridder ever want to sell it, Terra i have the right of first refusal, he said. Knight Ridder is the nation's second-largest newspaper publisher, with products in print and online. The company publishes 31 daily newspapers in 28 U.S. markets, with a readership of 9.0 million daily and 12.7 million Sunday. Knight Ridder also has investments in a variety of Internet and technology companies and two newsprint companies. The company's Internet operation, Knight Ridder Digital, develops and manages the company's online properties. It is the founder and operator of Real Cities (www.RealCities.com), the largest national network of city and regional Web sites in more than 105 U.S. markets. Knight Ridder and Knight Ridder Digital are headquartered in San Jose, Calif. FR Certain statements contained in this report are forward -looking. They are based on management's current knowledge of factors affecting Knight Ridder's business. Actual results could differ materially from those currently anticipated, depending upon -- but not limited to -- the effects of interest rates, of national and local economies on revenue, of the evolution of the Internet, of unforeseen changes in the price of newsprint and of negotiations and relations with labor unions.

Th mp City Clerk Neighbors balk at plans for bavfront condo tower ■ Plans for a high-rise condo at the foot of the historic Venetian Causeway have run Into opposition from neighbors. BY ANDRES YIGLUCCI aviglucci@MiamiHerald.com A developer's plan to build a condo tower on one of the lass: undeveloped private vv front lots in downtown Miami — a Miami Herald parking lot at the foot of the historic Venetian Causeway - is drawing opposition from residents of nearby condos and the Venetian Islands wor- ried about blocked vistas and increased traffic congestion. The developer, Citisquare Group, is asking the city of Miami to change the 1.1-acre lot's industrial zoning to per- mit construction of a 564-unit, 64-story condo on the edge of Biscayne Bay at Northeast 15th Street. The developers would also build a baywalk and a small plaza at the foot of the causeway, which they say would make the bayfront at that spot accessible to the pub- lic for the first time in years. But opponents argue the small site is unsuited to a large condo tower, which they con- tend would wall off views of the historic 1925 causeway and the bay from the niainlandand br." increased traffic to a c4 :way and neighborhood streets already burdened by too many cars. The proposed' condo would be roughly twice as high as the Venetia condos just across 15th Street. "Why would you want to BOX SMART MEETING Miami's zoning board will meet at 7 p.m. Monday at Miami City Hall, 3500 Pan American Dr. put up a high-rise right at the edge of the baywalk that cre- ates a wall or a shadow or an impediment to enjoyment of the waterfront?" said Barbara Blsno, president of the Vene- tiaa Causeway Neighborhood Alliance, which has fought to preserve the historic cause- way bridges. An existing baywalk at the site, part of The Miami Her- ald's property, has been fenced off for years for secu- rity reasons. NEIGI4BORHOOD REVIVAL Citisquare's David Martin said the tower will not block the causeway or bay views. A plant and the building's curved facade would ensure clear eastward views, he said. Moreover, he said, the pro- ject'% .residents would help rejuvenate a neighborhood that has been plagued by crime, shuttered buildings such at the Omni mall and a persistent homeless problem. "'Wlit want to improve the quality of life in the area," Martin said. The rezoning request will be heard by Miami's zoning board on Monday evening. Citisquare is also asking the city to rezone the adjacent site of The Miami Herald. The developers have filed plans for a second tower on The Miami Herald's site under an agree- ment with the newspaper's corporate parent, Knight Rid- der, which is selling its sur, rounding parking lots for $190 million. The deal gives the developer the right of first refusal should the building ever be put up for sale. But company executives say the building is not now for sale and will remain in place for the foreseeable future. Miami Herald Publisher Jesus Diaz said that's unlikely to change even after the pending purchase of Knight Ridder by the McClatchy Co. "Knight Ridder has always said the building is not on the market," Diaz said in an inter- view. "That position has not changed, and I don't foresee that changing under McClatchy." Martin's company also plans to build two additional towers on a lot belonging to The Miami Herald located behind the historic Boulevard Shops building on Biscayne Boulevard, as well as a mas- sive shopping center on the newspaper's two main lots along North Bayshore Drive. Residents say they are not opposed to high-rises off the water, but say they intend to fight the proposed Venetian Causeway tower because of its unique location. "It will overwhelm the entrance to the historic cause- way," said Venetia resident Patricia Mayor. Others are concerned about the cumulative effect on traffic from the condos and shops, as well as from other major pro- jects in the'area, including the Performing Arts Center. "It's going to be a mess. It's a mess now. The lack of plan- ning is horrendous," said Mat- thew Leibowitz, president of the Venetian Islands Home- owners Association. REZONING QUESTIONED Critics also question why city planners have recom- mended approval of the rezon- ing when Miami 21, the zoning overhaul meant to produce a new, neighborhood -friendly code, has not yet been corn- ' pleted. A draft of the plan is to be unveiled publicly May 13. "These developers are seeking to get in under the wire before Miami 21 goes into effect," said Hal Spaet, a long- time Venetia resident and for- mer state representative. But some residents say they would welcome the tower. "We've been waiting for this sort of thing for years," said Julie Grimes, a resident and representative for the Doubletree Hotel in the Grand building. It's been a desolate area. We've been living with homeless people and empty lots for years. "Miami is becoming a world -class city, and every other big city has traffic. It's going to be a problem and someone has to alleviate it. But that's life in the big city." Baytront high-rise plans face tough opposition Page 1 of 3 th JEkit►Im Herald.com Submitted Into the public record in corm ed n with Posted on Wed, May. 17, 2006 item ?2--30 cn ov Priscilla A. Thompson City Clerk DEVELOPMENT Bayfront high-rise plans face tough opposition Plans to build a high-rise tower on one of downtown Miami's last undeveloped bayfront lots will be put to the test before a city planning board. BY MATTHEW HAGGMAN mhaggman@MlamiHerald.com A hotly contested proposal to build a 64-story condo and hotel tower at the foot of the historic Venetian Causeway goes before a Miami planning board tonight. Developer Citisquare Group wants to build three condo towers and a massive retail center with shops and restaurants on 10 acres east of Biscayne Boulevard. It is buying the land for $190 million from Knight Ridder, parent of The Miami Herald. Citisquare also is asking to rezone the site of The Miami Herald building for a fourth condo, although Knight Ridder has said repeatedly those offices are not for sale. I lie. proposed tower near the causeway is drawing stiff opposition in another example of Miami's ongoing struggle to balance growth with preservation. Last week the city zoning board voted 4-2 against the proposal, citing traffic concerns and resident opposition. Zoning board members also voted 4-2 against rezoning the site of The Miami Herald building, saying there's no need to rezone a property that's not for sale. After the Planning Advisory Board, the City Commission will decide the matter this summer. Venetian Islands homeowner groups and nearby residents fear a 564-unit tower on what is now a parking lot north of The Miami Herald will block views and clog the only roadway connecting the islands to Miami. "There is universal objection to the overwhelming likelihood of dumping thousands of additional cars onto the causeway," said Matt Leibowitz, president of the Venetian Islands Homeowners Association. ' 'We will aggressively advocate our position and, if necessary, litigate it." Citisquare argues traffic concerns are overblown and that the project would revitalize the area. The developer has promised a bay walk and plaza on the site. Some residents spoke in the tower's favor; "I think it's beautiful to build up this community," said Venetian Isles resident Shmuel Mann. The other aspect of Citisquare's proposal under consideration tonight is the rezoning of The Miami Herald site at 1 Herald Plaza. City zoning board members wondered why the developer was applying to rezone for a high-rise tower if Knight Ridder insists the land isn't for sale. Under the terms of the deal, Knight Ridder is giving Citisquare permission to seek rezoning and development approvals for The Miami Herald offices -- despite saying it won't sell. Citisquare must provide parking for Herald employees and ensure Herald delivery trucks operate without interruption. The developer also gets the first chance at buying 1 Herald Plaza if Knight Ridder -- or Sacramento -based McClatchy Co., which is buying Knight Ridder -- ever chooses to sell. KNOWING THE FUTURE Citisquare attorney Lucia A. Dougherty said her clients are seeking the rezoning of 1 Herald Plaza because they want to know what could spring up between the 10 acres they're buying and Biscayne Bay, in case the building should be sold to httnv//www_miami rnm/1,,1.1 Bayfront high-rise plans face tough opposition Page 2 of 3 somebody else down the road. And proponents contend rezoning is needed to bring the parcel in line with nearby properties. "I have no problem with tall buildings in that area," said zoning board member Charles Garavaglia, who supported rezoning. But others remain perplexed. Since Knight Ridder put the land up for sale in 2004, rumors have been rampant it plans to sell The Miami Herald offices, given they are on prime waterfront real estate just a block from the Miami Performing Arts Center. The fact Knight Ridder declared the printing plant off-limits for redevelopment but not the offices has sparked further speculation. "It is very unusual to permit someone else to rezone their property when they have no intention of selling," said Stanley B. Price, a land -use attorney in Miami. Price said, for instance, a zoning change allowing a high-rise condo could result in a higher tax assessment -- something a property owner with no plans to sell would presumably want to avoid. "The sense is that there is more than meets the eye here," Price said. Larry Marbert, Knight Ridder's vice president of production and facilities, reiterated what Knight Ridder officials have said repeatedly since the company first put the 10 acres on the block. • "I don't know how many different ways I can say it, the building is not for sale," he said. "In In fact, during the bidding process, those who included the building in their bids were disqualified." atchy CEO Gary Pruitt also said there are no plans to sell the building when he visited The Miami Herald earlier this year after signing a contract to buy Knight Ridder. However, he acknowledged the site's value -- "Great view," he said while standing in the newspaper's cafeteria, which overlooks Biscayne Bay. In opposing the project, some zoning board members also criticized The Miami Herald's coverage. Board member Joseph Ganguzza cited a recent Miami Herald story and rendering illustrating proposed development around the Miaml Performing Arts Center as incomplete, because a rendering of the condo proposed for the site of The Miami Herald offices was not displayed. Ganguzza said The Miaml Herald really "has not spoken clearly about what is going on" and called the coverage ' 'selective." To date, The Miami Herald has published some nine articles on the land deal, including reporting on Knight Ridder allowing Citisquare Group to pursue development approvals on 1 Herald Plaza. Tom Fiedler, executive editor of The Miami Herald, said a rendering of the proposed tower at 1 Herald Plaza was not included in the April 30 story and graphic because Knight Ridder has consistently said the property is not for sale. NOT IN PLAY' "To the best of our knowledge, we've been told again and again, the property is not in play," said Fiedler, who added: "As As a newsroom, we have no dog in this fight." Citisquare Group is led by Miami builders Terra Group, headed by Pedro Martin, and New York -based RFR Holdings, whose principals are Michael Fuchs and Aby Rosen. Other investors include Chilean utility executive Jorge Rosenblut; Patricio Kreutzberger, son of Hispanic television star Don Francisco; Miami real estate investor Hank Sopher; and Brooklyn -based developer Shaya Boymelgreen, head of real estate development company Leviev Boymelgreen. Developer Mark Siffin, who has operations in Miami and Indiana, is a joint -venture partner in the large retail project. Plans for the retail complex and two other condo towers adjacent to the Boulevard Shops are still in the early stages of the approval process; they go before the Urban Development Review Board today.

Thompson City Clerk Board split on controversial high-rise After three hours of debate, the Miami Planning Advisory Board gave a proposal for a 64-story condo tower a split verdict. BY ANDRES VIGLUCCI aviglucci@MiamiHerald.com Amid opposition from residents, a developer's proposal for a 64-story condo tower at the foot of the historic Venetian Causeway failed to win the full endorsement of Miami's planning board. After three hours of debate stretching late into the night Wednesday, the Planning Advisory Board issued a split verdict on the project, which would occupy what is now a one -acre Miami Herald parking lot: Members voted 4-3 to recommend approval of the proposed condo. But the land -use change necessary for the project to go forward fell one vote short of the required five. The board voted the same way on a second proposed condo tower that would rise where The Miami Herald's office „Iding now stands. That plan has not generated the same level of opposition, in part because it appears less likely to materialize in the near future. The newspaper's parent company, Knight-Ridder, which owns the properties, has insisted the office building and an abutting one housing its presses are not for sale. It has agreed to sell the lot at the Venetian entrance as well as several inland Tots totaling about 10 acres to Miami developers Terra Group and its partners for $190 million, while promising the firm first dibs on the building should it ever decide to sell. Terra officials say they want to lock in approvals now for the tower at the office building site to ensure no incompatible project is built there in the future. GREAT CONFUSION The unusual plan, however, has caused considerable confusion and skepticism in several public hearings. One result: The City Commission will face a muddled set of recommendations from its advisory boards when it makes a final decision. Last week, Terra failed to win the endorsement of the city zoning board to rezone both bayfront properties, now classified as Tight industrial; that request also failed to win the needed five votes. Board members' uncertainty over plans for The Miami Herald building played into the vote. Terra's David Martin said Thursday he is confident of commission approval. "We look forward to presenting our plans to the City Commission," Martin said. "We We also look forward to continue working with the neighborhood to improve the area." Terra and its partners got better news on another front. The Urban Design Review Board in a 3-1 vote on Wednesday recommended approval of its plan for a large retail center and two condo towers on the inland Knight-Ridder lots. That means those projects, dubbed Citisquare, now go to the planning board. Martin and his partners have been meeting with opponents but so far have been unable to blunt their opposition. The developers did muster several residents, sporting "I Support Terra's Citisquare Project," to support the plan Wednesday night and submitted 100 signatures. VOCAL OPPOSITION Residents of the Venetian Islands and condos on the land side submitted 150 letters opposing the projects and lined up Board split on controversial high-rise Page 2 of 2 to voice criticisms of the proposed tower's effect on causeway traffic and already congested streets. While noting that they support the retail center and the inland towers, some critics said the tower should remain primarily open to preserve street -level views of the picturesque causeway bridge. "We're talking about a 60-story wall of glass and steel at the foot of the Venetian Causeway and Fifteenth Street, which is a small arterial road," Venetia resident Hal Spaet said. In voting against the plan, board member Robert Young said he found opponents' arguments ' ' persuasive." But supporters on the board noted the condo tower follows city master plans, which call for high -density development on the site, which is near the new Miami Performing Arts Center and is envisioned by planners as part of a new, intensely urban downtown district. ,(.) 2006 ,Miami}lerald.com and wire r4 ice sources.

Thompson City Clerk McClatchy to Acquire Knight Ridder Becomes Country's Second Largest Newspaper Publisher $6.5 Billion Deal Unites Two Historic Franchises Focused on Great Journalism New McClatchy Will Serve 30 Markets Growing 50% Faster Than U.S. Average McClatchy Will Divest Select Papers Outside its Strategic Objectives SACRAMENTO, Calif. and SAN JOSE, Calif., March 13 , PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- The McClatchy Company (NYSE: MNI) of Sacramento, CA and Knight-Ridder, Inc. (NYSE: KRI) of San Jose, CA today announced they have signed a definitive agreement under which McClatchy will acquire Knight Ridder in a transaction valued at $67.25 per share consisting of $40.00 in cash and a fixed fraction of .5118 of a Class A McClatchy share. The transaction values Knight Ridder at approximately $6,5 billion, including approximately $2.0 billion in assumed debt at closing. The expanded McClatchy Company will have 32 daily newspapers and approximately 50 non -dailies after the planned sale of 12 Knight Ridder papers. McClatchy's dailies will then have a combined daily circulation of about 3.2 million, making it the nation's second largest newspaper company measured by daily circulation. McClatchy stated that it would have had 2005 pro forma revenues of $2,83 billion and combined pro forma EBITDA of $754 million assuming full year ownership of all retained papers, after planned divestitures which contribute $219 million of EBITDA, and before cost synergies. The transaction is expected to be accretive to free cash flow (net income after adding back depreciation and amortization, minus capital expenditures) in the mid -teens percent and dilutive to GAAP earnings per share in the mid -single digit range in the first year after closing, becoming EPS accretive by 2008. As a result, McClatchy will own leading newspapers in many of the fastest growing markets nationwide. Papers to be added through this transaction include the Miami Herald, Kansas City Star, Fort Worth Star -Telegram and Charlotte Observer. They will join McClatchy's 12 papers serving cities like Minneapolis, MN; Sacramento, CA; and Raleigh, NC. In addition, McClatchy combined with Knight Ridder will have an expanded network of valuable Internet assets including the national Real Cities network, a one-third stake in the leading jobs site CareerBuilder, and other attractive interactive businesses. Capturing A Broader Audience "Opportunities like this come perhaps once in a company's lifetime, and we're thrilled to have this chance to extend McClatchy journalism and our proven newspaper operations to 20 high -quality newspapers in high -growth markets," said Gary Pruitt, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of McClatchy. Our two companies operate in the finest traditions of American journalism, devoted to independent, public interest reporting and the highest ethical values. Combining the two creates a company particularly well -positioned to lead the way in a changing media landscape. It's truly a chance for McClatchy to do more of what it does best." The acquisition builds on McClatchy's track record of successfully acquiring and integrating newspapers. The company first moved beyond its California base by acquiring The Anchorage Daily News in 1979. It later added the News Tribune (Tacoma) in 1986; the News & Observer (Raleigh) in 1995; the Star Tribune (Minneapolis) in 1998; and Sun Star (Merced, CA) in 2004. The Knight Ridder papers to be retained are a good geographic fit with McClatchy's current portfolio, generally located in regions where McClatchy has deep history and experience. Once integrated, the new McClatchy will operate the leading local media companies in 30 of the country's premium growth markets, each generally employing the markets largest news staff and largest sales force, and enjoying the leading online presence and the largest share of local advertising. 'A Similar Mission' Knight Ridder Chairman and CEO Tony Ridder said, "Knight Ridder and McClatchy share many similar -- and important -- values, most notably a commitment to quality journalism, fairness to our employees and service to our communities. The joining of so many Knight Ridder newspapers under McClatchy's banner will enable them to continue to flourish in an environment of excellence and integrity. This transaction, which represents an excellent outcome for shareholders, also concludes a period of considerable uncertainty for many of Knight Ridder's valued and dedicated employees, and I thank them for their perseverance through it. For the 12 newspapers that will be sold, the uncertainty is not over and I regret that very much." Knight Ridder, which is based in San Jose, CA, is a leading communications company with substantial newspaper and internet assets, including 32 daily papers in 29 U.S. markets in addition to 50 non -daily newspapers. the Real Cities national network of city and regional websites, and a strong Washington bureau, which will serve the new McClatchy newspapers. "This deal is a vote of confidence in the newspaper industry as well as our mission -driven commitment to public interest journalism," Mr. Pruitt added. "We strongly believe that good journalism is good business, but that doesn't mean business as usual. We have the opportunity to apply tested, successful management in some of the most promising markets in the http://phx.corporate-ir.net/phoenix.zhtml?c=70958&p=irol-newsArticle print&ID=834242... 6/6/2006 Knight Ridder::Investor Information::News Release Page 2 of 4 country. Although audiences get news in many new ways today, the appetite for independent, useful information is greater than ever, and the opportunities for a news company that meets these needs is unlimited." As part of the transaction, McClatchy intends to divest 12 Knight Ridder newspapers, mainly located in cities that do not fit the company's longstanding acquisition criteria, chiefly involving growing markets. The largest are the Philadelphia Inquirer and San Jose Mercury News. Others include Knight Ridder's other Philadelphia paper. the Daily News; Akron Beacon Journal (OH); Wilkes Barre Times Leader (PA); Aberdeen American News (SD); Grand Forks Herald (ND); Ft. Wayne News - Sentinel (IN); Contra Costa Times (CA); Monterey Herald (CA); and Duluth News Tribune (MN). The St. Paul Pioneer Press (MN) is to be sold due to anticipated anti-trust concerns involving McClatchy's (Minneapolis) Star Tribune. "These are terrific publications but simply do not fit with our long- standing acquisition and operating strategies," said Mr. Pruitt, Terms and Conditions Under the terms of the agreement, shareholders of Knight Ridder will receive $40.00 in cash and a fixed fraction of .5118 of a share of McClatchy Class A stock for a total per share consideration of $67.25 based upon the closing price for McClatchy on March 10, 2006 of $53.24. At the transaction's closing, McClatchy will have approximately 54.9 million Class A shares outstanding and 26.2 million Class B shares. The transaction is subject to customary terms and conditions, including approval by the Knight Ridder shareholders and is expected to close in three to four months. Holders of McClatchy Class B stock acting by written consent have adopted the merger agreement, approved the issuance of the shares in the merger and approved an amendment to McClatchy's restated certificate of incorporation to increase the authorized Class A common stock from 100 million shares to 200 million shares in connection with the merger. No further vote of McClatchy's stockholders is required. Knight Ridder generated $3.1 billion in revenue and $638 million in EBITDA in 2005, pro forma for full year ownership of all Knight Ridder newspapers. Based upon adjusted transaction value of $6.0 billion, after valuing Knight Bidder's off balance sheet assets at approximately $500 million, the transaction represents a multiple of 9.5x 2005 EBITDA, before taking into account $60 million in pro forma cost synergies. Including these synergies, the multiple is 8.7x 2005 EBITDA. McClatchy will be adding two Knight Ridder directors to its board. McClatchy will finance the transaction with a $3.75 billion bank debt facility. It has received commitments from Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. to underwrite the financing for the purchase. Credit Suisse served as financial advisor to McClatchy and Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Morgan Stanley advised Knight Ridder in connection with this transaction. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati served as legal counsel to McClatchy and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz, and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom LLP served as legal counsel to Knight Ridder.
