It gains control of the paper, its printing facility in Jersey City and takes a 49.9% interest on the 25-acre parcel on which the printing plant sits, with Zuckerman remaining majority ownership of that property. In addition, Tronc assumes the paper's pension responsibilities, which have been estimated at $30 million.
