NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
10. Restructuring and Other Charges, Continued:
As of December 31, 2004, the Company had funded through advances from Alltel payment of the restructuring
expenses, and all of the employee reductions and relocations had been completed. During 2004, the Company
also recorded a $1.8 million reduction in the liabilities associated with various restructuring activities initiated
prior to 2003, consisting of lease and contract termination costs. The reduction primarily reflected differences
between estimated and actual costs paid in completing the previous planned lease and contract terminations.
The following is a summary of the activity related to the liabilities associated with the Company’s restructuring
and other charges at December 31:

In the Company’s consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2006, other current liabilities included a portion of
this unpaid restructuring liability totaling $19.5 million, which consisted of $0.2 million of costs related to the
spin-off from Alltel and merger with Valor, $10.6 million in severance and employee-related expenses related to
the realignment of its operational functions, $4.9 million of severance and employee-related expenses related to
the integration of Valor, and $3.8 million related to the early termination of Valor leases. The remaining unpaid
restructuring liability of $9.4 million related to fees resulting from the split-off of the publishing business were
included in accounts payable in the consolidated balance sheet. As discussed above, cash outlays for the
remaining unpaid liabilities will be disbursed over the next 12 months and will be funded from operating cash
