Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On January 31, 2019, we announced that our subsidiary, Sirius XM Radio Inc. (“Sirius Radio”), has received the requisite consents to adopt the proposed amendments (the “2023 Notes Proposed Amendments”) to the indenture governing Pandora Media, Inc.’s (“Pandora”) 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) in connection with Sirius Radio’s previously announced solicitation of consents with respect thereto (the “2023 Notes Consent Solicitation”), which expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2019.

 

Following the receipt of the requisite consents with respect to the 2023 Notes, on January 31, 2019, Pandora and Citibank, N.A., as trustee under the indenture governing the 2023 Notes (the “Trustee”), executed the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of January 31, 2019 (the “2023 Notes First Supplemental Indenture”), to the indenture governing the 2023 Notes, dated as of June 1, 2018 (the “2023 Notes Indenture”), between Pandora and the Trustee, giving effect to the 2023 Notes Proposed Amendments. The 2023 Notes Proposed Amendments will expressly permit the transactions contemplated by our previously announced agreement and plan of merger and reorganization with Pandora (the “Acquisition”). The 2023 Notes Proposed Amendments also provide each holder of the 2023 Notes with a right to require Pandora to repurchase such holder’s 2023 Notes at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the applicable repurchase date, subject to certain conditions, including that the secondary market trading price of the 2023 Notes is below 100% for a specified number of trading days.

 

The 2023 Notes Supplemental Indenture became effective upon execution thereof, but the 2023 Notes Proposed Amendments will not become operative until satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to the 2023 Notes Consent Solicitation, including that all conditions precedent to the closing of the Acquisition have been satisfied or waived at or prior to February 15, 2019 and payment of the consent fee, which Sirius Radio expects to occur on the closing date of the Acquisition.

 

The foregoing description of the 2023 Notes Supplemental Indenture is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2023 Notes Supplemental Indenture, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

3

Repurchase Price shall be equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes to be repurchased pursuant to this Article 18.

 

(b)      Repurchases of Notes under this Section 18.01 shall be made, at the option of the Holder thereof, upon:

 

(i)      the delivery to the Company and the Paying Agent by a Holder of a duly completed notice (the “ Special Repurchase Notice ”) in the form attached to the Indenture as Exhibit B, if the Notes are Physical Notes, and in compliance with the Depositary’s procedures for surrendering interests in Global Notes, if the Notes are Global Notes, in each case within the 10 Business Day period immediately after the last day of the 10 consecutive Trading Day period related to the relevant Special Repurchase Event; and

for Notes surrendered for repurchase will be made on the later of (i) the Special Repurchase Date ( provided the Holder has satisfied the conditions in Section 18.01) and (ii) the time of book-entry transfer or the delivery of such Note to the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) by the Holder thereof in the manner required by Section 18.01 by mailing checks for the amount payable to the Holders of such Notes entitled thereto as they shall appear in the Note Register; provided , however , that payments to the Depositary shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Depositary or its nominee. The Trustee shall, promptly after such payment and upon written demand by the Company, return to the Company any funds in excess of the sum of (1) the Special Repurchase Price and (2) if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest, in each case, in respect of all of the Notes to be so repurchased on such Special Repurchase Date.

 

(b)      If by 11:00 a.m. New York City time, on the Special Repurchase Date, the Trustee (or other Paying Agent appointed by the Company) holds money sufficient to make payment on all the Notes or portions thereof that are to be repurchased on such Special Repurchase Date, then, with respect to the Notes that have been properly surrendered for repurchase, (i) such Notes will cease to be outstanding, (ii) interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (whether or not book-entry transfer of the Notes has been made or the Notes have been delivered to the Trustee or Paying Agent) and (iii) all other rights of the Holders of such Notes will terminate (other than the right to receive the Special Repurchase Price and, if applicable, accrued and unpaid interest).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

 

SIRIUSXM ANNOUNCES EXPIRATION OF CONSENT SOLICITATION

WITH RESPECT TO PANDORA MEDIA’S CONVERTIBLE NOTES DUE 2023

 

NEW YORK – January 31, 2019 – Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: SIRI) today announced that the previously announced consent solicitation by Sirius XM Radio Inc., its subsidiary, with respect to certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing Pandora Media, Inc.’s 1.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2023 (the “2023 Notes”) expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 31, 2019 (the “2023 Notes Expiration Time”). As of the 2023 Notes Expiration Time, Sirius XM Radio Inc. had received valid consents in respect of at least a majority of the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding 2023 Notes (the “2023 Notes Requisite Consents”) to the proposed amendments with respect to the indenture governing the 2023 Notes. Promptly upon receipt of the 2023 Notes Requisite Consents on January 31, 2019, Pandora Media, Inc. and Citibank, N.A., the trustee under the indenture for the 2023 Notes, entered into a supplemental indenture to the indenture governing the 2023 Notes implementing the proposed amendments with respect to the 2023 Notes, at which time such supplemental indenture became effective.

 

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement, dated January 18, 2019 (as supplemented, including by the Supplement dated January 31, 2019), and the related consent form, including that all conditions precedent to the closing of the Acquisition (defined below) have been satisfied or waived at or prior to February 15, 2019 (the “Consent Conditions Outside Date”), holders of 2023 Notes as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 17, 2019 whose consents were received (and not validly revoked) at or prior to the 2023 Notes Expiration Time, will be eligible to receive a cash payment (the “Consent Fee”) of $3.75 per $1,000 principal amount of such Notes, promptly after all conditions to the consent solicitation shall have been satisfied or waived, and in no event later than the closing date of the Acquisition. Holders of 2023 Notes that provide consents after the 2023 Notes Expiration Time will not receive the Consent Fee.

 

The proposed amendments will become operative only upon the payment of the Consent Fee, which Sirius XM Radio Inc. expects to occur on the closing date of Sirius XM Holdings Inc.’s previously announced acquisition of Pandora Media, Inc. (the “Acquisition”). If the Consent Fee is not paid, the proposed amendments will not become operative and will be deemed to be revoked retroactively to the date of the supplemental indenture. Upon the proposed amendments becoming effective and operative, all the holders of the 2023 Notes and their respective transferees will be bound by the terms thereof, even if they did not deliver consents to the proposed amendments.

 

BofA Merrill Lynch acted as solicitation agent in connection with the consent solicitation. D.F. King & Co., Inc. is acting as the information, tabulation and paying agent for the consent solicitations. Questions may be directed to D.F. King at (800) 676-7437 (toll free) or (212) 269-5550 (bankers and brokers).

 

This announcement is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell the 2023 Notes.
