VACKGRO-M The alternative and military ROP plans were on hold pending final creative development. The initial ROP plans called for a PG 2/C, running six times from June through December. Additionally, the following funds were budgeted for the Alternative and Military `Media Plans: Alternative 8udget Military Budget ROP $370.6M $304.5M Magazines - 6 93. M Total $370.6IX $397.9M Reses'Ve Funds5~0. AM 200 0_ _ Total $370.6M $597.91K Following summarizes our revisions to the Alternative and Military Media Plans. Please note that the alternative and military ROP portions of the plan assume 4 insertions: 3-PG 2/C and either a Centerspread 3/C or a Centerspread 2/C. We have included cost estimates for both of the possible centerspread creative options. PLAN M,T82=IVE "DT.A Since the original alternative ROP list was approved, we added one new paper, il a er, in New York, per your direction. (Attached is the revised list of altarnative newspapers).

We have found no data to suggest there is a significant increase in circulation corresponding to special/holiday issues. However, subjectively, we believe that readers are more involved/more attentive to them, due to their focus on local events/topics of relevance to the papers' readers. Our revised alternative scheduling recommendation takes advantage of potential increased reader interest in special issues and builds rsach quickly. We recommend the following schedule for the alternative newspaper plan: Issue DatQS (based on Friday date of the issue date week) ISSDB DATE ON SAIZ DATE September 3rd (Labor Day Weekend) September 1st September 17th September 15th -October 8th October 6th ---October 29th (Halloween) October 27th MIIITM NEWSPliPEit PI,~N Attached is the updated list of base newspapers. We have dropped one paper from the original list due to an excessive mid-year rate increase (Ft. Sill's Cannoneer - rate increase 45%). It has been replaced with another base paper (Camp Ioj@una°s g1412e) which recently began accepting tobacco advertising. This new base paper meats all of our original selection criteria (circulation, active duty personnel, commissary sales etc.).

On a one time only basis, we.may switch our insertion date from the August 2nd back cover to the September 6th back cover. Plan Revisions To complement our military base papers and ANAFTimes insertions, we recommend the purchase of two additional military magazines, a u and the Troop Edition of Off Duty. Attached is a spec sheet providing additional details on both publications. Salute, reaches theyouung male military market and thus increases reach of the younger segment of our demographic target. Although our spec sheet for Off Duty reflects older demographics, we believe that the troop edition reaches a younger audience.

,TL.L 26 ' 93 11 :44 LEO aJETT (15) P. 6 Reser4e,Ontions our media cost estimates indicate that the mflitary reserve fund is not required to cover the revised alternative snd military plans costs. While there are other military publications, they tend to skew older and more female and are not recommended for the revised military plan. As discussed previously, additional newspapers are not a priority. Additionally, since creative units run one time per publication, we could not add insertions. Given these factors, we recommend returning the funds to Ka3siline to help meet corporate deals/fund management back covers and franchises. Let's discuss our recommendation for using these r.serve funds at your convenience. Sincerely, LEO sUI2NETT v. S.R. Barb Kittridg Ue Media Buyer/Planner cc: a. Hanrahan, N. Ryan, S. TagethOff, T.
