DENVER, COLORADO - January 15, 2009 - Local Insight Regatta Holdings, Inc. ("LIRH") today announced that it has filed an amendment to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the "Form 10-Q/A") for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2008, originally filed on December 1, 2008, to amend and restate its consolidated financial statements as of September 30, 2008 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2008.

The Form 10-Q/A was filed following LIRH's identification of certain errors in its application of non-cash purchase accounting adjustments related to the acquisition in April 2008 of substantially all the assets of the Independent Line of Business division of L.M. Berry and Company (the "Berry ILOB") and the acquisition of Local Insight Yellow Pages, Inc. ("LIYP") in November 2007.

The restatement of LIRH's consolidated financial statements reflects non-cash adjustments associated with purchase accounting, and does not have any effect on LIRH's previously reported advertising sales, cash balances, EBITDA-as adjusted or free cash flow as of September 30, 2008 and for the three and nine month periods ended September 30, 2008. Please refer to the Form 10-Q/A for a reconciliation of these adjustments.
