iHeartCommunications, Inc. Announces the Early Tender Results of Its Private Offer to Exchange 10.0%
Senior Notes Due 2018 for Newly-Issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes Due 2021
iHeartCommunications, Inc. (“iHeartCommunications”) announced today the early tender results of its previously announced private
offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to holders of iHeartCommunications’ outstanding 10.0% Senior Notes due 2018 (the “Outstanding Notes”)
to exchange Outstanding Notes for newly-issued 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 (the “New Notes”). The Exchange Offer,
which is only available to holders of Outstanding Notes that have certified their status as (i) “qualified institutional buyers” as
that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or institutional “accredited
investors” as that term is defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act, or (ii) non “U.S. persons” as that
term is defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act (each, an “Eligible Holder”), is being made pursuant to an Offering Circular
dated December 20, 2016, and is exempt from registration under the Securities Act.
As of the previously announced early tender date of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 4, 2017 (the “Early Tender Date”),
approximately $597.5 million in aggregate principal amount (or approximately 70.3 percent) of the Outstanding Notes, including
approximately $503 million aggregate principal amount of Outstanding Notes held by subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications, have
been validly tendered and not withdrawn. Eligible Holders who have not already tendered their Outstanding Notes may continue
to do so at any time prior to midnight, New York City time, on January 19, 2017 (the “Expiration Date”), unless extended by
iHeartCommunications. Eligible Holders who tender their Outstanding Notes after the Early Tender Date will receive $970
principal amount of New Notes in exchange for each $1,000 principal amount of Outstanding Notes validly tendered and accepted for
exchange. Withdrawal rights for the Exchange Offer have expired, unless reinstated by iHeartCommunications.
A portion of the Outstanding Notes tendered by iHeartCommunications’ subsidiaries will be prorated to the extent tenders made
prior to the Expiration Date would result in the issuance of an aggregate principal amount of New Notes that would exceed
iHeartCommunications’ remaining secured debt capacity under the indentures governing its existing indebtedness. Outstanding Notes
validly tendered by unaffiliated parties, including all Outstanding Notes tendered prior to or after the Early Tender Date, and
accepted for exchange will not be subject to proration.
Consummation of the Exchange Offer and issuance of the New Notes is subject to certain customary conditions that must be
satisfied or waived by iHeartCommunications in its sole and absolute discretion on or prior to the Expiration Date.
iHeartCommunications expects to deliver the New Notes on or about January 23, 2017.
The complete terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer are set forth in the Offering Circular, and in the accompanying Letter
of Transmittal, which were only distributed to holders of the Outstanding Notes that completed and returned a letter of eligibility
confirming that they are Eligible Holders. Holders of the Outstanding Notes that desire a copy of the letter of eligibility must
