San Antonio, Texas – July 22, 2019 – Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: CCO) (“Clear Channel Outdoor”), one of the world’s largest outdoor advertising companies, today announced that it has commenced an underwritten public offering (the “Offering”) of its common stock. Clear Channel Outdoor is proposing to sell 100 million shares of common stock and expects to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to 15 million additional shares of common stock.

Clear Channel Outdoor currently intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem approximately $406 million aggregate principal amount of the 9.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2024 (the “CCWH Notes”) of Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of Clear Channel Outdoor, on August 22, 2019. The amount of the CCWH Notes expected to be redeemed is based on the expected size of the Offering. The redemption is conditioned on the closing of the Offering and the receipt by Clear Channel Outdoor of proceeds from the Offering in an amount sufficient to pay the redemption price. The conditional notice of redemption to be delivered to holders of the CCWH Notes may be rescinded or amended if necessary. This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the conditional notice of redemption to be delivered pursuant to the indenture that governs the CCWH Notes. If the underwriters for the Offering exercise their option to purchase additional shares in full, Clear Channel Outdoor intends to use the net proceeds to redeem an additional approximately $41 million of CCWH Notes and approximately $20 million of the 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020 of Clear Channel International B.V., a subsidiary of Clear Channel Outdoor.
