Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 16, 2024, Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Liberty Media”), entered into amendments to (i) the Reorganization Agreement (the “Reorganization Agreement” and such amendment to the Reorganization Agreement, the “Reorganization Agreement Amendment”), dated as of December 11, 2023, with Liberty Sirius XM Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Media (“New Sirius”) and Sirius XM Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sirius XM Holdings”), and (ii) the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”, such amendment to the Merger Agreement, the “Merger Agreement Amendment”, and the Reorganization Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement Amendment together, the “Amendments”), dated as of December 11, 2023, with New Sirius, Sirius XM Holdings and Radio Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sirius (“Merger Sub”), relating to the split-off of New Sirius, which will own all of the assets and liabilities attributed to the Liberty SiriusXM Group, from Liberty Media (the “Split-Off”) and, following the Split-Off, the combination of New Sirius and Sirius XM Holdings through the merger of Merger Sub with Sirius XM Holdings, with Sirius XM Holdings becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of New Sirius (the “Merger” and, together with the Split-Off, the “Transactions”).

The Amendments, among other things, ratably adjust the exchange ratios in each of the Reorganization Agreement and the Merger Agreement in connection with the Transactions to reduce, by 90%, the total number of outstanding shares of New Sirius common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“New Sirius Common Stock”), immediately following the closing of the Transactions.

These changes to the exchange ratios affect Sirius XM Holdings stockholders and holders of shares of Liberty Media’s Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“LSXMA”), Liberty Media’s Series B Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“LSXMB”), and Liberty Media’s Series C Liberty SiriusXM common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“LSXMK” and, together with LSXMA and LSXMB, the “Liberty SiriusXM Common Stock”), uniformly and will not alter any such stockholder’s percentage interest in the outstanding shares of New Sirius Common Stock as of immediately following the closing of the Transactions as compared to what such stockholder’s percentage interest in New Sirius Common Stock would have been without such revisions to the exchange ratios, except to the extent that it results in some stockholders receiving cash in lieu of owning a fractional share of New Sirius Common Stock. These changes to the exchange ratios are intended to preserve the economics of the Transactions announced in December 2023, while reducing the number of shares of New Sirius Common Stock that would be outstanding immediately after the closing of the Transactions. In addition, these changes are expected to more closely align the nominal share price of New Sirius Common Stock immediately after the closing of the Transactions with the price of the shares of Liberty SiriusXM Common Stock being redeemed in the Split-Off, and increase the nominal price per share of New Sirius Common Stock, which is designed to help improve trading dynamics in the stock and potentially increase its attractiveness to investors.

The Amendments are further summarized below and have been approved by Liberty Media’s Board of Directors, the Special Committee of the Board of Directors of Sirius XM Holdings and Sirius XM Holdings’ Board of Directors. Liberty Media’s Board of Directors has recommended that holders of shares of LSXMA and LSXMB vote in favor of the Split-Off, as it has been amended by the Reorganization Agreement Amendment.

Additionally, in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement Amendment, Liberty Radio, LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Media that holds a majority of the outstanding shares of Sirius XM Holdings common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“SiriusXM Common Stock”), in its capacity as a stockholder of Sirius XM Holdings, has delivered to Sirius XM Holdings a written consent pursuant to Section 228 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware approving and adopting the Merger Agreement, as amended by the Merger Agreement Amendment, and approving the transactions contemplated thereby. As a result, no meeting of the stockholders of Sirius XM Holdings will be held in connection with the Transactions, as such Transactions have been amended by the Amendments.

The parties are working diligently to complete the Transactions as soon as practicable. We expect the closing to occur in the third quarter of 2024. 

Reorganization Agreement Amendment

The Reorganization Agreement Amendment, among other things, (i) revises the definition of the “Exchange Ratio” to multiply the original calculation thereof set forth in the Reorganization Agreement by one tenth (0.1) to implement the reduction in the number of shares of New Sirius Common Stock outstanding immediately following the closing of the Transactions, (ii) revises the restructuring plan contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement to provide for, among other things, the conversion of Sirius XM Radio Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Sirius XM Holdings, to Sirius XM Radio LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Delaware Limited Liability Company Act (the “Conversion”) and (iii) provides that the completion of the Conversion be a condition to the closing of the Split-Off.

Merger Agreement Amendment

The Merger Agreement Amendment, among other things, (i) revises the definition of “SiriusXM Exchange Ratio” under the Merger Agreement to be one-tenth (0.1) of a share of New Sirius Common Stock to implement the reduction in the number of shares of New Sirius Common Stock outstanding immediately following the closing of the Transactions, (ii) entitles record holders of shares of SiriusXM Common Stock immediately prior to the closing of the Merger who would have otherwise been entitled to receive a fractional share of New Sirius Common Stock in the Merger to receive cash in lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share and (iii) provides that the approval of the Conversion by the United States Federal Communications Commission be a condition to the closing of the Merger.

The foregoing descriptions of the Reorganization Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of the Reorganization Agreement Amendment and Merger Agreement Amendment, respectively, copies of which are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 2.1, respectively, and the terms of which are incorporated by reference herein.
