On May 17, 2021, Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the commencement of a private offering (the “Private Offering”), exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), of $1,050,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Private Offering to (i) cause Clear Channel Worldwide Holdings, Inc., a subsidiary of the Company, to redeem all of the outstanding $961,525,000 aggregate principal amount of its 9.25% Senior Notes due 2024 and (ii) pay related transaction fees and expenses.
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 the registration requirements. This Current Report on Form 8-K is not a notice of redemption 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 Private Offering is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
