Item 6.
Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relation­ships
 with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.__________________
 
 

ITEM 6 OF THIS STATEMENT IS HEREBY AMENDED AND RESTATED TO READ IN ITS ENTIRETY AS FOLLOWS:
 
The 1997 Trust was established by an indenture dated June 24, 1997 (the “Original Indenture”), between Marian S. Heiskell, Ruth S. Holmberg, Judith P. Sulzberger and Arthur Ochs Sulzberger (collectively, the “grantors”), and the grantors and Lynn G. Dolnick, as trustee.  On December 14, 2001, the grantors and Lynn G. Dolnick entered into a first amendment to the Original Indenture (the “Amended Indenture”).  The Amended Indenture was filed with Amendment No. 7 to this Statement as Exhibit G and is hereby incorporated herein by reference.  The following summary of the material terms of the Amended Indenture is qualified in its entirety by such reference to Exhibit G.

 
     

 
28

 


The principal purpose of the Amended Indenture was to increase the number of trustees of the 1997 Trust from five to eight, of whom four trustees are “appointed trustees” and four trustees are either grantors or “elected trustees.”
 
Upon the death, resignation or incapacity of any appointed trustee, the trustees will appoint a successor trustee.  Upon the death, resignation or incapacity of a grantor trustee or an elected trustee, a successor trustee will be elected by a majority vote of those beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust who are over the age of twenty-five years and who are descendants of Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger or who are both married to and living with a descendant of Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger, and who wish to vote, in an election called by the trustees for that purpose. Any determination made by the trustees regarding the procedures and rules for such election or the outcome thereof will be conclusive as to all persons interested or claiming to be interested in the 1997 Trust.  The beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust are (1) the grantors, (2) the descendants of the grantors other than those who request at any time after all of the grantors are deceased, and who receive in the absolute discretion of the trustees, a distribution of a fractional share of the 1997 Trust corpus as permitted by the Amended Indenture, (3) spouses of the grantors or of their descendants, and (4) certain organizations, contributions to which are allowable as deductions under the Internal Revenue Code.
 
Elected trustees are replaced by elected trustees, and appointed trustees are replaced by appointed trustees, so that there will always be four trustees who are appointed trustees and four trustees who either are grantors or elected trustees.

 
     

 
29

 


The Amended Indenture provided that Lynn G. Dolnick, Jacqueline H. Dryfoos, Michael Golden and Arthur Sulzberger, Jr. were the first four appointed trustees.  Currently, Steven Green, Carolyn D. Greenspon, Michael Golden and Arthur Sulzberger, Jr. are the four appointed trustees and James M. Cohen, Gertrude A.L. Golden, Joseph Perpich, and Hays N. Golden, are the trustees who have been duly elected by the eligible beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust.
 
Under the Amended Indenture, all actions of the trustees require the affirmative vote of six trustees.  No trustee (other than a grantor) may participate in any decision or other action of the trustees with respect to any discretionary distribution of principal or income in favor of such trustee.
 
Any trustee may resign at any time, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment or election of a successor trustee.
 
Any trustee (other than a grantor) may be removed without cause by vote of six trustees.
 
The Original Indenture provided that each trustee other than a grantor would serve for a term of five years.  The Amended Indenture does not provide for any term limits apart from the above-mentioned provisions for resignation or removal.
 
The trustees of the 1997 Trust, subject to the limited exceptions described below, are directed to retain the Class B Stock held in the 1997 Trust and not to sell, distribute or convert such shares into Class A Stock, and to vote such Class B Stock against any merger, sale of assets or other transaction pursuant to which control of The New York Times newspaper passes from the trustees unless they determine that the primary objective of the 1997 Trust, which is to maintain the editorial independence and integrity of The New York Times and to continue it “as

 
     

 
30

 

an independent newspaper, entirely fearless, free of ulterior influence and unselfishly devoted to the public welfare,” in accordance with the wishes of Adolph S. Ochs as expressed in his will, can be best achieved by the sale, distribution or conversion of such stock or by the implementation of such transaction.  If upon such determination any Class B Stock is distributed to the beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust, it must be distributed only to descendants of Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger, subject to the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement.  Similarly, any sale by the 1997 Trust of Class B Stock upon such determination can be made only in compliance with the Shareholders Agreement.  See Item 6 of Amendment No. 5 to this Statement for a summary of the provisions of the Shareholders Agreement.
 
The trustees may make distributions of shares of Class A Stock and other trust principal, apart from shares of Class B Stock, in such amount or amounts as the trustees may in their absolute discretion deter­mine to such of the beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust as the trustees may in their absolute discretion select, provided that as long as any of the grantors is alive, the trustees may only distribute equal amounts to each living grantor and to the descendants of a deceased grantor, such descendants to take per stirpes.  In exercising this discretionary power, the trustees are required to bear in mind the need to retain in the 1997 Trust assets other than shares of Class B Stock of sufficient value to pay any estate, transfer, or generation-skipping taxes that may have to be paid out of the 1997 Trust.
 
The trustees will pay out of the net income of the 1997 Trust (almost all of which will be derived from dividends paid on the Class A Stock and Class B Stock held in trust) such amount or amounts as the trustees may in their absolute discretion determine to such one or more of the

 
     

 
31

 

beneficiaries of the 1997 Trust as the trustees may in their absolute discretion select, provided that as long as any of the grantors is alive, the trustees shall distribute one-quarter of the income either to that grantor or to such of the beneficiaries and in such amounts and proportions as that grantor may from time to time in writing direct.  Any net income not so distributed shall be added to principal.
 
The trustees of the 1997 Trust are granted various powers and rights, including among others: (i) to vote all the shares of Class A Stock and Class B Stock held by the 1997 Trust; (ii) to nominate the successor trustees who may also serve on the Company’s Board of Directors; and (iii) to amend certain provisions of the Indenture, but not the provisions relating to retaining the Class B Stock or the manner in which the Class B Stock may be distributed, sold or converted.  The trustees act by the affirmative vote of six trustees.
 
The 1997 Trust will continue in existence until the expiration of 21 years after the death of the survivor of all descendants of Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger living on December 14, 2000.  Upon the termination of the 1997 Trust at the end of the stated term thereof, the shares of Class B Stock will be distributed to the descendants then living of Iphigene Ochs Sulzberger.
