Item 8.01 Other Events.
On November 25, 2013, Clear Channel Communications, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release stating that it is seeking to extend $1.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of its existing term loans B and C due January 2016 until July 2019 and announcing the commencement of the Company’s offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) Senior Notes due 2021 (the “Notes”) issued by the Company for any and all of the Company’s outstanding 10.75% Senior Cash Pay Notes due 2016 and 11.00%/11.75% Senior Toggle Notes due 2016 (collectively, the “Outstanding Notes”). The Notes will be issued as “additional notes” under the indenture governing the Company’s outstanding Senior Notes due 2021 that were issued on June 21, 2013. The Exchange Offer is only available to certain eligible holders of the Outstanding Notes and is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. This current report on Form 8-K is neither an offer to sell or exchange nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
A copy of the press release announcing the foregoing potential transactions is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated in this Item 8.01 by reference.
