Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure |
Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) announced today that it intends to offer $400 million aggregate original principal amount of exchangeable senior debentures due 2049 (the “Debentures”) exchangeable for Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (“Sirius”) common stock in a private offering (or up to $460 million aggregate original principal amount of Debentures if the initial purchasers for the offering exercise their option to purchase additional Debentures in full) (the “Liberty Offering”). The Debentures will be exchangeable at the option of holders during specified periods. Upon an exchange of Debentures, Liberty, at its option, may deliver Sirius common stock, the value thereof in cash or shares of Liberty’s Series C Liberty SiriusXM Common Stock (“LSXMK”) or any combination of shares of Sirius common stock, cash and/or shares of LSXMK.
Concurrently with the pricing of the proposed Liberty Offering, Sirius expects to purchase up to 20 million shares of its common stock in privately negotiated transactions effected through one or more of the initial purchasers or their respective affiliates. Sirius expects to purchase such shares at a purchase price per share that would be at a discount of between 2.5% and 3.0% to the closing price per share of the Sirius common stock on the date of the pricing of the proposed Liberty Offering, depending on the total number of shares purchased. These purchases could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of Sirius common stock, and could in turn result in a higher effective exchange price for the Debentures.
