Regulation FD Disclosure

On February 17, 2010, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Georgia, Augusta Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”) confirmed Morris Publishing Group, LLC's, and each of its fourteen subsidiaries' (“Morris Publishing”), as Debtors, Pre-Packaged Plan of Reorganization and approved the adequacy of its Disclosure Statement as filed with the Chapter 11 Petitions (as described below), clearing the way for Morris Publishing to consummate the plan and emerge from bankruptcy as soon as March 1, 2010.

On January 19, 2010, the Debtors had filed voluntary petitions (the “Chapter 11 Petitions”) for relief under chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code") in the Bankruptcy Court, with the Chapter 11 Petitions being assigned to the Honorable Judge John S. Dalis and jointly administered under the caption “In re Morris Publishing Group, LLC, et. al.” Case No. 10-10134.

The Pre-Packaged Plan of Reorganization will reduce bondholder debt through the issuance of $100 million of new second lien secured notes due in 2014 in exchange for the cancellation of approximately $278.5 million of principal amount of outstanding senior subordinated unsecured notes due 2013 plus accrued interest. The reduction of the bondholder debt will be accompanied by a capital contribution of approximately $85 million and a repayment of intercompany indebtedness of approximately $25 million by affiliated entities controlled and owned by the Morris family, resulting in the cancellation of approximately $110 million of senior secured debt.

On February 17, 2010, Morris Publishing issued a press release relating to the foregoing, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
