Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Indenture Governing 5.125% Senior Secured Notes Due 2027

On August 23, 2019, Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) completed the sale of $1,250 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of August 23, 2019 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company acting as guarantors party thereto (collectively, the “Guarantors”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and as collateral agent.

The Notes mature on August 15, 2027 and bear interest at a rate of 5.125% per annum. Interest on the Notes is payable to the holders thereof semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2020. The Notes are guaranteed fully and unconditionally on a senior secured basis by the Guarantors and any of the Company’s future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Company’s new senior secured term loan facility (the “New Term Loan Facility”) and the Company’s new senior secured revolving credit facility (the “New Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the New Term Loan Facility, the “New Senior Secured Credit Facilities”), which are described below.

The Notes and the guarantees are secured on a first-priority basis by security interests in all of the Company’s and Guarantors’ assets securing the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities on a pari passu basis with the liens on such assets (other than the assets securing the Company’s new asset-based credit facility (the “New ABL Facility”)) (such assets, other than accounts receivable and certain other assets, the “Notes Priority Collateral”), and on a second-priority basis by security interests in all of the Company’s and Guarantors’ assets securing the New ABL Facility on a first-priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral” and, together with the Notes Priority Collateral, the “Notes Collateral”), in each case, other than any excluded assets and subject to intercreditor agreements.

The Notes and the guarantees are general senior secured obligations of the Company and the Guarantors and rank pari passu in right of payment with the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness, including the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the New ABL Facility and the 9.25% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Stepped-up Notes”) of the Company’s subsidiary Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (“CCWH”) (which on August 23, 2019 ceased to be subordinated indebtedness as described under Item 8.01 herein). The Notes and the guarantees are senior in right of payment to all existing and future subordinated indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors. The Notes are effectively equal to all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future indebtedness secured by a first priority lien on the Notes Priority Collateral (including the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities), to the extent of the value of such collateral, are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s and the Guarantors’ existing and future indebtedness secured by a first priority lien on the ABL Priority Collateral (including the New ABL Facility), to the extent of the value of such collateral, and are structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including preferred stock, of existing and future subsidiaries of the Company that do not guarantee the Notes.

The Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes beginning on August 15, 2022 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture. Prior to August 15, 2022 the Company may redeem all or a portion of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes plus the “make-whole” premium described in the Indenture. The Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at any time prior to August 15, 2022 using the net proceeds from certain equity offerings at 105.125% of the principal amount of the Notes. During any twelve month period prior to August 15, 2022, subject to certain exceptions and conditions, the Company may also redeem up to 10% of the then outstanding aggregate principal amount of Notes at a redemption price equal to 103% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, provided that at the time of any such redemption, there are no outstanding borrowings under the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities (including any amounts drawn under any revolving credit facility or other borrowings outstanding in respect of any term loans), and no such redemption can be made with the proceeds of any indebtedness that refinances existing indebtedness.

 

2


The Indenture contains covenants that limit the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things: (i) incur or guarantee additional debt or issue certain preferred stock; (ii) redeem, purchase or retire subordinated debt; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) create restrictions on the payment of dividends or other amounts from the Company’s restricted subsidiaries that are not Guarantors; (v) enter into certain transactions with affiliates; (vi) merge or consolidate with another person, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (vii) sell certain assets, including capital stock of the Company’s subsidiaries; (viii) designate the Company’s subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries, (ix) pay dividends, redeem or repurchase capital stock or make other restricted payments; and (x) incur certain liens.

Copies of the Indenture and the Notes are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Indenture and the Notes does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Indenture and the Notes.

The New ABL Credit Agreement governs the Company’s New ABL Facility.

Item 1.02

Termination of Material Definitive Agreement

Satisfaction and Discharge of 6.50% Series A and Series B Senior Notes due 2022 and 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020

As previously disclosed, on August 5, 2019, CCWH and Clear Channel International, B.V. (a subsidiary of the Company) delivered conditional notices of redemption, calling all of their outstanding 6.50% Series A and Series B Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Existing Senior Notes”) and 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “Existing CCIBV Notes”), as applicable, for redemption on September 4, 2019 (the “Redemption Date”). The redemptions were conditioned on the closing of the refinancing transactions related to the issuance of the Notes and the entry into the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the New ABL Facility. At the closing of the refinancing transactions, the Company deposited and caused to be deposited with U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee for the Existing Senior Notes and the Existing CCIBV Notes, the proceeds from the Notes and the New Term Loan Facility, together with cash on hand, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the principal amount outstanding, plus premium and accrued and unpaid interest on the Existing Senior Notes and the Existing CCIBV Notes to, but not including, the Redemption Date. CCWH and CCIBV then irrevocably instructed U.S. Bank National Association to apply the deposited funds to the full payment of the Existing Senior Notes and the Existing CCIBV Notes on the Redemption Date, and concurrently therewith, elected to satisfy and discharge the indentures governing the Existing Senior Notes and the Existing CCIBV Notes in accordance with their terms. U.S. Bank National Association acknowledged such satisfaction and discharge. As a result of the satisfaction and discharge of the indentures, CCWH, CCIBV and the respective guarantors of the Existing Senior Notes and the Existing CCIBV Notes have been released from their remaining obligations under the indentures governing such notes and the indentures generally ceased to be of further effect.

Termination of Existing Receivables-Based Credit Facility

In connection with the issuance of the Notes and and the entry into the New Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the New ABL Facility, on August 23, 2019, Clear Channel Outdoor, LLC, a subsidiary of the Company, terminated the existing receivables-based credit facility, dated as of June 1, 2018, with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch as administrative agent. There were no borrowings outstanding under the existing receivables-based credit facility at termination, but there were approximately $62.3 million of letters of credit outstanding that were rolled over to the New ABL Facility.
