NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION

Preparation of Interim Financial Statements

All references in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer to iHeartMedia, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries. The Company’s reportable segments are iHeartMedia (“iHM”), Americas outdoor advertising (“Americas outdoor” or “Americas outdoor advertising”) and International outdoor advertising (“International outdoor” or “International outdoor advertising”).

The accompanying consolidated financial statements were prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of management, include all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the results of the interim periods shown. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. Management believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. ~~Due~~As described below, as a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Company's Plan of Reorganization (as defined below), the consolidated financial statements after the Effective Date (as defined below), are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements on or before that date. Refer to ~~seasonality and other factors, the results~~Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting, for ~~the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year.~~additional information. The financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s 2018 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. Also included in the consolidated financial statements are entities for which the Company has a controlling financial interest or is the primary beneficiary. Investments in companies in which the Company owns 20% to 50% of the voting common stock or otherwise exercises significant influence over operating and financial policies of the company are accounted for under the equity method. All significant intercompany transactions are eliminated in the consolidation process.

Unless otherwise indicated, information in these notes to the consolidated financial statements relates to continuing operations. Certain of the Company's operations have been presented as discontinued. The Company presents businesses that represent components as discontinued operations when the components meet the criteria for held for sale, are sold, or spun-off and their disposal represents a strategic shift that has, or will have, a major effect on its operations and financial results. See Note 4, Discontinued Operations.

As part of the Separation and Reorganization (as defined below), the Company reevaluated its segment reporting, resulting in the presentation of two businesses:


▪	Audio, which provides media and entertainment services via broadcast and digital delivery and also includes the Company’s events and national syndication businesses and


▪	Audio & Media Services, which provides other audio and media services, including the Company’s media representation business, Katz Media Group (“Katz Media”) and the Company's provider of scheduling and broadcast software, Radio Computing Services (“RCS”).

Prior periods have been recast to reflect the Company's current segment presentation. See Note 13, Segment Data.

Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2019 presentation.

Voluntary Filing under Chapter 11

On March 14, 2018 (the "Petition Date"), the Company, iHeartCommunications, Inc. ("iHeartCommunications") and certain of the Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the "Bankruptcy Court"). Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (“CCOH”) and its direct and indirect subsidiaries did not file voluntary petitions for reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code and ~~are~~were not Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases.

~~The Chapter 11 Cases are being administered under the caption~~ ~~In re: iHeartMedia, Inc., Case No. 18-31274 (MI)~~. The Debtors are operating their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court.

On ~~March 16,~~April 28, 2018, the Company and the other Debtors entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) with certain creditors and equity holders (the “Consenting Stakeholders”). The RSA contemplates the restructuring and recapitalization of the Debtors (the “Restructuring Transactions”) throughfiled a plan of reorganization in(as amended, the ~~Chapter 11 Cases, which plan was confirmed in January 2019. Pursuant to the RSA, the Consenting Stakeholders have agreed to, among other things, support the Restructuring Transactions~~“Plan of Reorganization”) and ~~vote in favor of~~ a ~~plan of reorganization to effect the Restructuring Transactions.~~

The RSA provides certain milestones for the Restructuring Transactions. Failure of the Debtors to satisfy these milestones without a waiver or consensual amendment would provide the Consenting Stakeholders a termination right under the RSA. These milestones include (i) the filing of a plan of reorganization andrelated disclosure statement ~~in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Debtors and the Consenting Stakeholders, which were filed~~ with the Bankruptcy Court, ~~on April 28, 2018, (ii)~~which we subsequently amended by filing the ~~filing~~second, third, fourth and fifth amended Plan of ~~a motion for approval~~Reorganization and amended versions of the disclosure statement by May 31, 2018, which deadline was subsequently extended to June 22, 2018, and which motion was filed with the Bankruptcy Court on that date, (iii) the entry of an order approving the disclosure statement by July 27, 2018 (subject to one additional 20-day extension on the terms set forth on the RSA), which order was ultimately entered on September 20, 2018, (iv) the entry of an order confirming the plan of reorganization within 75 days of the entry of an order approving the disclosure statement, which order was ultimately entered onDisclosure Statement. On January 22, 2019, ~~and (v)~~ the ~~effective date~~Plan of Reorganization was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.

On May 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), the conditions to the effectiveness of the ~~plan~~Plan of ~~reorganization~~Reorganization were satisfied and the Company emerged from Chapter 11 through (a) a series of transactions (the ~~"Effective Date"~~“Separation”) ~~occurring by March 14, 2019,~~through which ~~has not yet occurred but is currently expected to occur on or about May 1, 2019. The Debtors satisfied~~CCOH, its parent Clear Channel Holdings, Inc. (“CCH”) and its subsidiaries (collectively with CCOH and CCH, the first and second milestones, but did not satisfy the subsequent milestones and as a result, certain of the Consenting Stakeholders presently have the right to terminate the RSA, but as of the date hereof, the RSA has not been terminated.“Outdoor Group”) were separated

~~iHeartCommunications,~~from, and ceased to be controlled by, the Company and its subsidiaries (the “iHeart Group”), and (b) a series of transactions (the “Reorganization”) through which isiHeartCommunications’ debt was reduced from approximately $16 billion to approximately $5.8 billion and a ~~Debtor~~global compromise and settlement among holders of claims (“Claimholders”) in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases ~~provides~~was effected. The compromise and settlement involved, among others, (i) the ~~day-to-day cash management services for CCOH’s cash activities~~restructuring of iHeartCommunications’ indebtedness by (A) replacing its “debtor-in-possession” credit facility with a $450 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) and ~~balances~~(B) issuing to certain Claimholders, on account of their claims, approximately $3.5 billion aggregate principal amount of new senior secured term loans (the “Term Loan Facility”), approximately $1.45 billion aggregate principal amount of new 8.375% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Senior Unsecured Notes”) and approximately $800 million aggregate principal amount of new 6.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “6.375% Senior Secured Notes”), (ii) the Company’s issuance of new Class A common stock, new Class B common stock and special warrants to purchase shares of new Class A common stock and Class B common stock (“Special Warrants”) to Claimholders, subject to ownership restrictions imposed by the Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”), (iii) the settlement of certain intercompany transactions, and (iv) the sale of the preferred stock (the “iHeart Operations Preferred Stock”) of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary iHeart Operations, Inc.

See below for more information regarding Reorganization items.Predecessor period.

ASC 852 requires certain additional reporting for financial statements prepared between the bankruptcy filing date and the date of emergence from bankruptcy, including:

Reclassification of Debtor pre-petition liabilities that are unsecured, under-secured or where it cannot be determined that the liabilities are fully secured, to a separate line item in the Consolidated Balance Sheet called, "Liabilities subject to compromise"; and

Segregation of Reorganization items, net as a separate line in the Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Loss, ~~outside of~~included within income from continuing operations.

~~Debtor-In-Possession~~

In general, as debtors-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors are authorized to continue to operate as an ongoing business, but may not engage in transactions outside the ordinary course of business without the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant to first day and second day motions filed with the Bankruptcy Court, the Bankruptcy Court authorized the Debtors to conduct their business activities in the ordinary course, including, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions of such orders, authorizing the Debtors to: (i) pay employees’ wages and related obligations; (ii) continue to operate their cash management system in a form substantially similar to prepetition practice; (iii) use cash collateral on an interim basis; (iv) continue to honor certain obligations related to on-air talent, station affiliates and royalty obligations; (v) continue to maintain certain customer programs; (vi) pay taxes in the ordinary course; (vii) continue their surety bond program; and (viii) maintain their insurance program in the ordinary course.

~~Automatic Stay~~

Subject to certain specific exceptions under the Bankruptcy Code, the Chapter 11 Cases automatically stayed most judicial or administrative actions against the Debtors and efforts by creditors to collect on or otherwise exercise rights or remedies with respect to pre-petition claims. Absent an order from the Bankruptcy Court, substantially all of the Debtors’ pre-petition liabilities are subject to settlement under the Bankruptcy Code. See Note 14, ~~Condensed Combined Debtor-In-Possession Financial Information~~.

~~Executory Contracts~~

Subject to certain exceptions, under the Bankruptcy Code, the Debtors may assume, amend or reject certain executory contracts and unexpired leases subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court and certain other conditions. Generally, the rejection of an executory contract or unexpired lease is treated as a pre-petition breach of such executory contract or unexpired lease and, subject to certain exceptions, relieves the Debtors from performing their future obligations under such executory contract or unexpired lease but entitles the contract counterparty or lessor to a pre-petition general unsecured claim for damages caused by such deemed breach. Generally, the assumption of an executory contract or unexpired lease requires the Debtors to cure existing monetary defaults under such executory contract or unexpired lease and provide adequate assurance of future performance. Accordingly, any description of an executory contract or unexpired lease with the Debtors in this document, including where applicable a

~~IHEARTMEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION)~~

~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(UNAUDITED)~~

quantification of the Company’s obligations under any such executory contract or unexpired lease of the Debtors, is qualified by any overriding rejection rights the Company has under the Bankruptcy Code.

~~Potential Claims~~

The Debtors have filed with the Bankruptcy Court schedules and statements setting forth, among other things, the assets and liabilities of each of the Debtors, subject to the assumptions filed in connection therewith. These schedules and statements may be subject to further amendment or modification after filing. Certain holders of pre-petition claims that are not governmental units were required to file proofs of claim by the deadline for general claims, which was on June 29, 2018 (the “Bar Date”).

~~The Debtors' have received approximately 4,300~~proofs of claim as of April 22, 2019 for an amount of approximately $808.4 billion. Such amount includes duplicate claims across multiple Debtor legal entities. These claims will be reconciled to amounts recorded in the Company's accounting records. Differences in amounts recorded and claims filed by creditors will be investigated and resolved, including through the filing of objections with the Bankruptcy Court, where appropriate. The Bankruptcy Court does not allow for claims that have been acknowledged as duplicates. Approximately 2,000 claims totaling approximately $7.0 billion have been disallowed, modified or withdrawn and the Debtors have filed additional claim objections with the Bankruptcy Court for approximately 50 claims totaling approximately $0.6 million in additional reductions and modifications. The Company may ask the Bankruptcy Court to disallow claims that the Company believes have been later amended or superseded, are without merit, are overstated or should be disallowed for other reasons. In addition, as a result of this process, the Company may identify additional liabilities that will need to be recorded or reclassified to Liabilities subject to compromise. In light of the substantial number of claims filed, and expected to be filed, the claims resolution process may take considerable time to complete and will continue after the Debtors emerge from bankruptcy.

~~Reorganization Items, Net~~

The Debtors have incurred and will continue to incur significant costs associated with the reorganization, including the write-off of original issue discount and deferred long-term debt fees on debt subject to compromise, costs of debtor-in-possession refinancing, legal and professional fees. The amount of these charges, which since the Petition Date are being expensed as incurred, are expected to significantly affect the Company’s results of operations. In accordance with applicable guidance, costs associated with the bankruptcy proceedings have been recorded as Reorganization items, net within the Company's accompanying Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018. See Note 13, ~~Reorganization Items, Net~~.

~~Financial Statement Classification of Liabilities Subject to Compromise~~

The accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets as of March 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 include amounts classified as Liabilities subject to compromise, which represent liabilities the Company anticipates will be allowed as claims in the Chapter 11 Cases. These amounts represent the Debtors’ current estimate of known or potential obligations to be resolved in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases, and may differ from actual future settlement amounts paid. Differences between liabilities estimated and claims filed, or to be filed, will be investigated and resolved in connection with the claims resolution process. The Company will continue to evaluate these liabilities throughout the Chapter 11 process and adjust amounts as necessary. Such adjustments may be material. See Note 12, ~~Liabilities Subject to Compromise~~.

~~Plan of Reorganization~~

On April 28, 2018, the Debtors filed a plan of reorganization (as amended, the “Plan of Reorganization”) and a related disclosure statement (as amended, the “Disclosure Statement”) with the Bankruptcy Court. Thereafter, the Debtors filed a second, third and fourth amended Plan of Reorganization and amended versions of the Disclosure Statement. On September 20, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement and related solicitation and notice procedures for voting on the Plan of Reorganization. On October 10, 2018, the Debtors filed a fifth amended Plan of Reorganization and the Disclosure Statement Supplement. On October 18, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement Supplement and the continued solicitation of holders of general unsecured claims for voting on the Plan of Reorganization. The deadline for holders of claims and interests to vote on the Plan of Reorganization was November 16, 2018. More than 90% of the votes cast by holders of claims and interests entitled to vote thereon accepted the Plan of Reorganization.

On December 16, 2018, the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and Norfolk County Retirement System entered into the CCOH Separation Settlement (as defined below) resolving all claims, objections, and other causes of action that have

~~IHEARTMEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES (DEBTOR-IN-POSSESSION)~~

~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

~~(UNAUDITED)~~

been or could be asserted by or on behalf of CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and/or Norfolk County Retirement System by and among the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., certain individual defendants in the GAMCO Asset Management, Inc. action and/or the Norfolk County Retirement System action, and the private equity sponsor defendants in such actions. In connection with the CCOH Separation Settlement, on December 17, 2018, the Debtors filed a modified fifth amended Plan of Reorganization. On January 10, 2019, hearings commenced to consider confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization. On January 17, 2019, the Debtors came to agreement on the terms of the Legacy Plan Settlement (as defined below) with Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”), solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027 (together with the 5.50% Senior Notes due 2016, the “Legacy Notes”), and not in its individual capacity, and certain consenting Legacy Noteholders of all issues related to confirmation of our plan of reorganization, and on January 21, 2019 and January 22, 2019, the Debtors filed further modified versions of the fifth amended Plan of Reorganization. On January 22, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization.

The Plan of Reorganization contemplates a restructuring of the Debtors that will reduce iHeartCommunications’ debt from approximately $16 billion to approximately $5.8 billion, and will result in the separation of CCOH from the Company, creating two independent companies.

~~Going Concern~~

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and contemplate the realization of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business. ~~As noted above, Liabilities subject to compromise will be resolved in connection with~~During the Chapter 11 ~~Cases. The~~Cases, the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern iswas contingent upon the Company’s ability to successfully implement the Company’s Plan of Reorganization, among other factors. As a result of the ~~Chapter 11 Cases, the realization~~effectiveness and implementation of assets and the satisfaction of liabilities are subject to uncertainty. While operating as debtors-in-possession under Chapter 11, the Company may sell or otherwise dispose of or liquidate assets or settle liabilities, subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court or as otherwise permitted in the ordinary course of business, for amounts other than those reflected in the accompanying consolidated financial statements. Further, the Plan of Reorganization, ~~could materially change~~there is no longer substantial doubt about the amounts and classifications of assets and liabilities reported in the consolidated financial statements. The accompanying consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments related to the recoverability and classification of assets or the amounts and classification of liabilities or any other adjustments that might be necessary should the Company be unableCompany's ability to continue as a going concern or as a consequence of the Chapter 11 Cases. As a result of our financial condition, the defaults under our debt agreements, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Chapter 11 Cases, substantial doubt exists that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

New Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

Leases

The Company adopted ASU No. 2016-02, which created ASC 842, Leases, and all subsequent ASUs relating to this Topic, as of January 1, 2019 (collectively, "ASC 842"). This new lease accounting standard, which supersedes previous lease accounting guidance under U.S. GAAP, results in significant changes to the balance sheets of lessees, most significantly by requiring the recognition of a right-of-use ("ROU") asset and lease liability by lessees for those leases classified as operating leases. Lessor

~~NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS~~

accounting is also updated to align with certain changes in the lessee model and the revenue recognition standard ("ASC Topic 606"), which was adopted in 2018.

The Company applied the transition provisions of this standard at January 1, 2019 following the optional transition method provided by ASU No. 2018-11; consequently, the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements for periods before the date of adoption continue to be presented in accordance with ASC Topic 840. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which allowed us to not reassess whether expired or existing contracts are or contain leases and to carry forward the historical lease classification for those leases that commenced prior to the date of adoption.

Upon adoption of ASC 842, prepaid and deferred rent balances, which were historically presented separately, were combined and presented net within the ROU asset. Additionally, deferred gains related to previous transactions that were historically accounted for as sale and operating leasebacks in accordance with ASC Topic 840 were eliminated and recognized as a cumulative-effect adjustment to equity, resulting in an increase to equity, net of tax, of $128.9 million. Under ASC Topic 840, such gains were recognized ratably over the lease term as a credit to operating lease expense, and operating lease expense for the three and nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 included ~~a credit~~credits of ~~$1.5~~$1.3 million and $3.9 million, respectively, for the amortization of these gains, which ~~was~~were not recognized in ~~the three months ended March 31,~~any period after January 1, 2019.

Adoption of the new standard had a material impact on our consolidated balance sheets, but it did not have a material impact on our other consolidated financial statements. Additionally, the standard requires disclosures to meet the objective of enabling users of the financial statements to assess the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. Refer to Note 2,5, Revenue, and Note 3,6, Leases, for more information.

Intangible Assets and Goodwill

During the first quarter of 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other (Topic 350). This update ~~eliminates~~eliminated the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Entities ~~will~~are required to record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit's carrying amount over its fair value. The standard is effective for annual and any interim impairment tests performed for periods beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company early adopted the proposed guidance under ASU 2017-04 beginning on January 1, 2019 on a prospective basis. The implementation of ASU 2017-04 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

NOTE 3 - FRESH START ACCOUNTING

Fresh Start

In connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC 852, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. The Company ~~generates revenue~~was required to adopt fresh start accounting because (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor Company and (ii) the reorganization value of the Company's assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.

In accordance with ASC 852, with the application of fresh start accounting, the Company allocated its reorganization value to its individual assets based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC 805, "Business Combinations." The reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company's assets before considering liabilities. The excess reorganization value over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets is reported as goodwill. As a result of the application of fresh start accounting and the effects of the implementation of the Plan of Reorganization, the consolidated financial statements after May 1, 2019 are not comparable with the consolidated financial statements as of or prior to that date.

Reorganization Value

As set forth in the Plan of Reorganization and the Disclosure Statement, the enterprise value of the Successor Company was estimated to be between $8.0 billion and $9.5 billion. Based on the estimates and assumptions discussed below, the Company estimated the enterprise value to be $8.75 billion, which is the mid-point of the range of enterprise value.

the operating data of publicly-traded benchmark companies to the same operating data of the Company were applied. The ~~primary source~~selected publicly traded companies analysis identified a group of comparable companies giving consideration to lines of business and markets served, size and geography. The valuation multiples were derived based on historical and projected financial measures of revenue inand earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and applied to projected operating data of the ~~iHM segment is~~Company.

To estimate enterprise value utilizing the ~~sale~~discounted cash flow method, an estimate of ~~local~~future cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 with a terminal value was determined and ~~national advertising~~discounted the estimated future cash flows to present value. The expected cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 with a terminal value were based upon certain financial projections and assumptions provided to the Bankruptcy Court. The expected cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 were derived from earnings forecasts and assumptions regarding growth and margin projections, as applicable. A terminal value was included, calculated using the terminal multiple method, which estimates a range of values at which the Successor Company will be valued at the end of the Projection Period based on the Company’s broadcast radio stations, its iHeartRadio digital platforms, station websites, sponsorships and live events. This segment also generates revenues from traffic and weather data, syndicated content, and other miscellaneous transactions.

~~The Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments generate revenue primarily from the sale of advertising space on printed and digital out-of-home advertising displays.~~

The Company also generates revenue through contractual commissions realized from the sale of national spot and online advertising on behalf of clients of its full-service media representation business, Katz Media,applying a terminal multiple to final year OIBDAN, which is ~~reported~~defined as consolidated operating income adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expenses included within corporate expenses, as well as Depreciation and amortization, Impairment charges and Other operating income (expense), net.

To estimate enterprise value utilizing the selected transactions analysis, valuation multiples were derived from an analysis of consideration paid and net debt assumed from publicly disclosed merger or acquisition transactions, and such multiples were applied to the broadcast cash flows of the Successor Company. The selected transactions analysis identified companies and assets involved in publicly disclosed merger and acquisition transactions for which the ~~Company’s Other segment.~~targets had operating and financial characteristics comparable in certain respects to the Successor Company.

A. Separation of CCOH Adjustments

(1) On May 1, 2019, as part of the Separation, the outstanding shares of both classes of CCOH common stock were consolidated such that CCH held all of the outstanding CCOH Class A common stock that was held by subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications, through a series of share distributions by other subsidiaries that held CCOH common stock and a conversion of CCOH Class B common stock that CCH held to CCOH Class A common stock. Prior to the Separation, iHeartCommunications owned approximately 89.1% of the economic rights and approximately 99% of the voting rights of CCOH. To complete the Separation, CCOH merged with and into CCH, with CCH surviving the merger and changing its name to Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (“New CCOH”), and pre-merger shares of CCOH Class A common stock (other than shares of CCOH Class A common stock held by CCH or any direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of CCH) were converted into an equal number of shares of post-merger common stock of New CCOH. iHeartCommunications transferred the post-merger common stock of New CCOH it held to Claimholders pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization but retained 31,269,762 shares. Such retained shares were distributed to two affiliated Claimholders on July 18, 2019. Upon completion of the merger and Separation, New CCOH became an independent public company. Upon distribution of the shares held by iHeartCommunications, the Company does not hold any ownership interest in CCOH.

The assets and liabilities of CCOH have been classified as discontinued operations. The discontinued operations reflect the assets and liabilities of CCOH, which are presented as discontinued operations as of the Effective Date. CCOH’s assets and liabilities are adjusted to: (1) eliminate the balance on the Due from iHeartCommunications Note and the balance on the intercompany payable due to iHeartCommunications from CCOH’s consolidated balance sheet, which are intercompany amounts that were eliminated in consolidation; (2) eliminate CCOH’s Noncontrolling interest and treasury shares; and (3) eliminate other intercompany balances.

C. Fresh Start Adjustments

We have applied fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852. Fresh start accounting requires the revaluation of our assets and liabilities to fair value, including both existing and new intangible assets, such as FCC licenses, developed technology, customer relationships and tradenames. Fresh start accounting also requires the elimination of all predecessor earnings or deficits in Accumulated deficit and Accumulated other comprehensive loss. These adjustments reflect the actual amounts recorded as of the Effective Date.


(1)	Reflects the fair value adjustment as of May 1, 2019 made to accounts receivable to reflect management's best estimate of the expected collectability of accounts receivable balances.

(2)

Reflects the fair value adjustment as of May 1, 2019 to eliminate certain prepaid expenses related to software implementation costs and other upfront payments. The Company historically incurred third-party implementation fees in connection with installing various cloud-based software products, and these amounts were recorded as prepaid expenses and recognized as a component of selling, general and administrative expense over the term of the various contracts. The Company determined that the remaining unamortized costs related to such implementation fees do not provide any rights that result in future economic benefits. In addition, the Company pays signing bonuses to certain of its on-air personalities, and these amounts were recorded as prepaid expenses and recognized as a component of Direct operating expenses over the terms of the various contracts. To the extent these contracts do not contain substantive claw-back provisions, these prepaid amounts do not provide any enforceable rights that result in future economic benefits. Accordingly, the balances related to these contracts as of May 1, 2019 were adjusted to zero.

(3) Reflects the fair value adjustment to eliminate receivables related to tenant allowances per certain lease agreements. These receivables were incorporated into the recalculated lease obligations per ASC 842.

(4)

Reflects the fair value adjustment to recognize the Company’s property, plant and equipment as of May 1, 2019 based on the fair values of such property, plant and equipment. Property was valued using a market approach comparing similar properties to recent market transactions. Equipment and towers were valued primarily using a replacement cost approach. Internally-developed and owned software technology assets were valued primarily using the Royalty Savings Method, similar to the approach used in valuing the Company’s tradenames and trademarks. Estimated royalty rates were determined for each of the software technology assets considering the relative contribution to the Company’s overall profitability as well as available public market information regarding market royalty rates for similar assets. The selected royalty rates were applied to the revenue generated by the software technology assets. The forecasted cash flows expected to be generated as a result of the royalty savings were discounted to present value utilizing a discount rate considering overall business risks and risks associated with the asset being valued. For certain of the software technology assets, the Company used the cost approach which utilized historical financial data regarding development costs and expected future profit associated with the assets. The adjustment to the Company’s property, plant and equipment consists of a $182.9 million increase in tangible property and equipment and a $151.0 million increase in software technology assets

(5) Historical goodwill and other intangible assets have been eliminated and the Company has recognized certain intangible assets at estimated current fair values as part of the application of fresh start accounting, with the most material intangible assets being the FCC licenses related to the Company’s 854 radio stations. The Company has also recorded customer-related and marketing-related intangible assets, including the iHeart tradename.

The following table sets forth estimated fair values of the components of these intangible assets and their estimated useful lives:



(In thousands)	Estimated Fair Value				Estimated Useful Life
FCC licenses	$	2,281,720		(a)	Indefinite
Customer / advertiser relationships	1,643,670			(b)	5 - 15 years
Talent contracts	373,000			(b)	2 - 10 years
Trademarks and tradenames	321,928			(b)	7 - 15 years

Total intangible assets upon emergence	4,627,126
Elimination of historical acquired intangible assets	$	(2,431,142	)
Fresh start adjustment to acquired intangible assets	2,195,984

(a) FCC licenses. The fair value of the indefinite-lived FCC licenses was determined primarily using the direct valuation method of the Income Approach and, for smaller markets a combination of the Income approach and the Market Approach. The Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist it in the development of the assumptions and the Company’s determination of the fair value of its FCC licenses.

Under the direct valuation method, the fair value of the FCC licenses was calculated at the market level as prescribed by ASC 350. The application of the direct valuation method attempts to isolate the income that is properly attributable to the FCC licenses alone (that is, apart from tangible and identified intangible assets and goodwill). It is based upon modeling a hypothetical “greenfield” build-up to a “normalized” enterprise that, by design, lacks inherent goodwill and whose only other assets have essentially been paid for (or added) as part of the build-up process. Under the direct valuation method, it is assumed that rather than acquiring FCC licenses as part of a going concern business, the buyer hypothetically obtains FCC licenses and builds a new operation with similar attributes from scratch. Thus, the buyer incurs start-up costs during the build-up phase which are normally associated with going concern value. Initial capital costs are deducted from the discounted cash flow model which results in value that is directly attributable to the FCC licenses. In applying the direct valuation method to the Company’s FCC licenses, the licenses are grouped by type (e.g. FM licenses vs. AM licenses) and market size in order to ensure appropriate assumptions are used in valuing the various FCC licenses based on population and demographics that influence the level of revenues generated by each FCC license, using industry projections. The key assumptions used in applying the direct valuation method include market revenue growth rates, market share, profit margin, duration and profile of the build-up period, estimated start-up capital costs and losses incurred during the build-up period, the risk-adjusted discount rate (“WACC”) and terminal values. The WACC was calculated by weighting the required returns on interest-bearing debt and common equity capital in proportion to their estimated percentages based on a market participant capital structure.

For licenses valued using the Market Transaction Method, the Company used publicly available data, which included sales of comparable radio stations and FCC auction data involving radio broadcast licenses to estimate the fair value of FCC licenses. Similar to the application of the Income approach for the FCC licenses, the Company grouped licenses by type and market size for comparison to historical market transactions.

The historical book value of the FCC licenses as of May 1, 2019 was subtracted from the fair value of the FCC licenses to determine the adjustment to decrease the value of Indefinite-lived intangible assets-licenses by $44.9 million.

(b) Other intangible assets. Definite-lived intangible assets include customer/advertiser relationships, talent contracts for on-air personalities, trademarks and tradenames and other intangible assets. The Company engaged a third-party valuation firm to assist in developing the assumptions and determining the fair values of each of these assets.

For purposes of estimating the fair values of customer/advertiser relationships and talent contracts, the Company primarily utilized the Income Approach (specifically, the multi-period excess earnings method, or MPEEM) to

IHEARTMEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

estimate fair value based on the present value of the incremental after-tax cash flows attributable only to the subject intangible assets after deducting contributory asset charges. The cash flows attributable to each grouping of customer/advertiser relationships were adjusted for the appropriate contributory asset charges (e.g., FCC licenses, working capital, tradenames, technology, workforce, etc.). The discount rate utilized to present-value the after-tax cash flows was selected based on consideration of the overall business risks and the risks associated with the specific assets being valued. Additionally, for certain advertiser relationships the Company used the Cost Approach using historical financial data regarding the sales, administrative and overhead expenses related to the Company’s selling efforts associated with revenue for both existing and new advertisers. The ratio of expenses for selling efforts to revenue was applied to total revenue from new customers to determine an estimated cost per revenue dollar of revenue generated by new customers. This ratio was applied to total revenue from existing customers to estimate the replacement cost of existing customer/advertiser relationships. The historical book value of customer/advertiser relationships as of May 1, 2019 was subtracted from the fair value of the customer/advertiser relationships determined as described above to determine the adjustment to increase the value of the customer/advertiser relationship intangible assets by $1,604.1 million.

For purposes of estimating the fair value of trademarks and tradenames, the Company primarily used the Royalty Savings Method, a variation of the Income approach. Estimated royalty rates were determined for each of the trademarks and tradenames considering the relative contribution to the Company’s overall profitability as well as available public information regarding market royalty rates for similar assets. The selected royalty rates were applied to the revenue generated by the trademarks and tradenames to determine the amount of royalty payments saved as a result of owning these assets. The forecasted cash flows expected to be generated as a result of the royalty savings were discounted to present value utilizing a discount rate considering overall business risks and risks associated with the asset being valued. The historical book values of talent contracts, trademarks and tradenames and other intangible assets as of May 1, 2019 were subtracted from the fair values determined as described above to determine the adjustments as follows:



(In millions)
Customer/advertiser relationships	$	1,604.1	increase in value
Talent contracts	361.6		increase in value
Trademarks and tradenames	274.4		increase in value
Other	0.8		increase in value
Total fair value adjustment	$	2,240.9	increase in value

(c) Included within other intangible assets are permanent easements, which have an indefinite useful life. All other intangible assets are amortized over the respective lives of the agreements, or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Company’s future cash flows.

The following table sets forth the adjustments to goodwill:



(In thousands)
Reorganization value	$	10,710,208
Less: Fair value of assets (excluding goodwill)	(7,386,843		)
Total goodwill upon emergence	3,323,365

Fresh start adjustment to goodwill	$	(92,127	)

(6)

The operating lease obligation as of May 1, 2019 had been calculated using an incremental borrowing rate applicable to the Company while it was a debtor-in-possession before its emergence from bankruptcy. Upon application of fresh start accounting, the lease obligation was recalculated using the incremental borrowing rate applicable to the Company after emergence from bankruptcy and commensurate to its new capital structure. The incremental borrowing rate used decreased from 12.44% as

IHEARTMEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

of March 31, 2019 to 6.54% as of May 1, 2019. As a result of this decrease, the Company's Operating lease liabilities and corresponding Operating lease right-of-use assets increased by $541.2 million to reflect the higher balances resulting from the application of a lower incremental borrowing rate. The Operating lease right-of-use-assets were further adjusted to reflect the resetting of the Company's straight-line lease calculation. In addition, the Company increased the Operating lease right-of-use assets to recognize $13.1 million related to the favorable lease contracts.

(7)

Reflects the fair value adjustment to adjust deferred revenue and other liabilities as of May 1, 2019 to its estimated fair value. The fair value of the deferred revenue was determined using the market approach and the cost approach. The market approach values deferred revenue based on the amount an acquirer would be required to pay a third party to assume the remaining performance obligations. The cost approach values deferred revenue utilizing estimated costs that will be incurred to fulfill the obligation plus a normal profit margin for the level of effort or assumption of risk by the acquirer. Additionally, a deferred gain was recorded at the time of the certain historical sale-leaseback transaction. During the implementation of ASC 842, the operating portion was written off as of January 1, 2019. The financing lease deferred gain remained. As part of fresh start accounting, this balance of $0.9 million was written off.

(8) Reflects the fair value adjustment to adjust Long-term debt as of May 1, 2019. This adjustment is to state the Company's finance leases and other pre-petition debt at estimated fair values.

(9) Reflects the fair value adjustment to adjust Accrued expenses as of May 1, 2019. This adjustment primarily relates to adjusting vacation accruals to estimated fair values.

(10) Reflects a net increase to deferred tax liabilities for fresh start adjustments attributed primarily to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets, the effects of which are partially offset by a decrease in the valuation allowance. The Company believes it is more likely than not that its deferred tax assets remaining after the Reorganization and emergence will be realized based on taxable income from reversing deferred tax liabilities primarily attributable to property, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

In connection with the Separation, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the agreements described below.

Transition Services Agreement

On the Effective Date, the Company, iHM Management Services, iHeartCommunications and CCOH entered into a transition services agreement (the “Transition Services Agreement”), pursuant to which iHM Management Services has agreed to provide, or cause the Company, iHeartCommunications, iHeart Operations or any member of the iHeart Group to provide, CCOH with certain administrative and support services and other assistance which CCOH will utilize in the conduct of its business as such business was conducted prior to the Separation, for one year from the Effective Date (subject to certain rights of CCOH to extend up to one additional year, as described below). The transition services may include, among other things, (a) treasury, payroll and other financial related services, (b) certain executive officer services, (c) human resources and employee benefits, (d) legal and related services, (e) information systems, network and related services, (f) investment services and (g) procurement and sourcing support.

IHEARTMEDIA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

The charges for the transition services are generally consistent with the Corporate Services Agreement, dated as of November 10, 2005, by and between iHM Management Services and CCOH (the “Corporate Services Agreement”), which governed the provision of certain services by the iHeart Group to the Outdoor Group prior to the Separation. The allocation of cost is based on various measures depending on the service provided, which measures include relative revenue, employee headcount, number of users of a service or other factors. CCOH may request an extension of the term for all services or individual services for one-month periods for up to an additional 12 months, and the price for transition services provided during such extended term will be increased for any service other than those identified in the schedules to the Transition Services Agreement as an “IT Service” or any other service the use and enjoyment of which requires the use of another IT Service.

CCOH may terminate the Transition Services Agreement with respect to all or any individual service, in whole or in part, upon 30 days’ prior written notice, provided that any co-dependent services must be terminated concurrently.

New Tax Matters Agreement

On the Effective Date, the Company entered into a new tax matters agreement (the “New Tax Matters Agreement”) by and among the Company, iHeartCommunications, iHeart Operations, CCH, CCOH and CCOL, to allocate the responsibility of the Company and its subsidiaries, on the one hand, and the Outdoor Group, on the other, for the payment of taxes arising prior and subsequent to, and in connection with, the Separation.

The New Tax Matters Agreement requires that the Company and iHeartCommunications indemnify CCOH and its subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless, on an after-tax basis, from and against (i) any taxes other than transfer taxes or indirect gains taxes imposed on the Company or any of its subsidiaries (other than CCOH and its subsidiaries) in connection with the Separation, (ii) any transfer taxes and indirect gains taxes arising in connection with the Separation, and (iii) fifty percent of the amount by which the amount of taxes (other than transfer taxes or indirect gains taxes) imposed on CCOH or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the Separation that are paid to the applicable taxing authority on or before the third anniversary of the separation of CCOH exceeds $5 million, provided that, the obligations of the Company and iHeartCommunications to indemnify CCOH and its subsidiaries with respect taxes (other than transfer taxes or indirect gains taxes) imposed on CCOH or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the Separation will not exceed $15 million. In addition, if the Company or its subsidiaries use certain tax attributes of CCOH and its subsidiaries (including net operating losses, foreign tax credits and other credits) and such use results in a decrease in the tax liability of the Company or its subsidiaries, then the Company is required to reimburse CCOH for the use of such attributes based on the amount of tax benefit realized. The New Tax Matters Agreement provides that any reduction of the tax attributes of CCOH and its subsidiaries as a result of cancellation of indebtedness income realized in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases is not treated as a use of such attributes (and therefore does not require the Company or iHeartCommunications to reimburse CCOH for such reduction).

The New Tax Matters Agreement also requires that (i) CCOH indemnify the Company for any income taxes paid by the Company on behalf of CCOH and its subsidiaries or, with respect to any income tax return for which CCOH or any of its subsidiaries joins with the Company or any of subsidiaries in filing a consolidated, combined or unitary return, the amount of taxes that would have been incurred by CCOH and its subsidiaries if they had filed a separate return, and (ii) except as described in the preceding paragraph, CCOH indemnify the Company and its subsidiaries, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless, on an after-tax basis, from and against any taxes other than transfer taxes or indirect gains taxes imposed on CCOH or any of its subsidiaries in connection with the Separation.

Any tax liability of CCH attributable to any taxable period ending on or before the date of the completion of the Separation, other than any such tax liability resulting from CCH’s being a successor of CCOH in connection with the merger of CCOH with and into CCOH or arising from the operation of the business of CCOH and its subsidiaries after the merger of CCOH with and into CCH, will not be treated as a liability of CCOH and its subsidiaries for purposes of the New Tax Matters Agreement.

Trade and Barter

Trade and barter transactions represent the exchange of advertising spots ~~or display space~~ for merchandise, services or other assets in the ordinary course of business. The transaction price for these contracts is measured at the estimated fair value of the non-cash consideration received unless this is not reasonably estimable, in which case the consideration is measured based on the standalone selling price of the advertising spots ~~or display space~~ promised to the customer. Trade and barter revenues and expenses from continuing operations, which are included in consolidated revenue and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively, were as follows:

~~Lease Revenue Considerations in Outdoor Segments~~

Certain of the revenue transactions in the Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments are considered leases, for accounting purposes, as the contracts convey to customers the right to control the use of the Company’s advertising displays for a period of time. These contracts, which typically cover periods of a few weeks to one year (although there are some with longer terms), are generally cancelable after a specified notice period in the Americas outdoor segment, while contracts in the International outdoor segment are generally non-cancelable or require the customer to pay a fee to terminate the contract. To qualify as a lease, fulfillment of the contract must be dependent upon the use of a specified advertising structure, the customer must have almost exclusive use of the advertising display throughout the contract term, and, upon adoption of the new leases standard (ASC 842) on January 1, 2019, the customer must also have the right to change the advertisement that is displayed throughout the contract term.

The Company has elected a practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from associated lease components if certain criteria are met. As such, each right to control the use of an advertising display that meets the lease criteria is combined with the related installation and maintenance services provided under the contract into a single lease component. Production services, which do not meet the criteria to be combined, and each advertising display that does not meet the lease criteria (along with any related installation and maintenance services) are non-lease components. Consideration in outdoor advertising contracts is allocated between lease and non-lease components in proportion to their relative standalone selling prices, which are generally approximated by the contractual prices for each promised service. The Company accounts for revenue from leases, which are all classified as operating leases, in accordance with the lease accounting guidance (ASC Topic 840 or ASC Topic 842, depending on the advertising campaign start date), while the Company’s remaining revenue transactions are accounted for as revenue from contracts with customers (ASC Topic 606).

In accordance with the transition approach that the Company elected to adopt ASC Topic 842, as described in Note 1, revenue contracts with campaign start dates prior to January 1, 2019 were not reassessed to determine whether they qualify as a lease under the requirements of the new leasing standard. Instead, they continue to be accounted for as revenue from contracts with customers or revenue from leases based on the requirements of the previous standard (ASC Topic 840), and the new requirements have been applied to revenue contracts with campaign start dates on or after January 1, 2019. Because the definition of a lease is more restrictive under the new standard, fewer of our new outdoor advertising contracts meet the definition of a lease for accounting purposes, resulting in an increase in the percentage of revenue that is categorized as revenue from contracts with customers as compared to the prior year.

NOTE 36 – LEASES

The Company enters into operating lease contracts for land, buildings, structures and other equipment. Arrangements are evaluated at inception to determine whether such arrangements contain a lease. Operating leases primarily include land and building lease contracts and leases of radio towers and contracts for the use of space on floors, walls and exterior locations on buildings. Arrangements in which wall space is used are considered to be lease contracts if all other required elements of a lease contract are present. The Company assessed certain international transit contracts under ASC 842, which historically were determined to be leases, and concluded that the arrangements did not meet the definition of leases under the new leasing standard. In accordance with the transition guidance of ASC 842, such arrangements are included in the Company’s balance sheet as of January 1, 2019. The majority of the Company's transit contracts do not meet the definition of a lease due to substantive substitution rights within those contracts.towers. Arrangements to lease building space consist primarily of the rental of office space, but may also include leases of other equipment, including automobiles and copiers. Operating leases are reflected on the Company's balance sheet within Operating lease right-of-use assets and the related short-term and long-term liabilities are included within Current and Noncurrent operating lease liabilities, respectively. As of March 31, 2019, a portion of the Company's operating lease liabilities relate to lease contracts entered into prior to the Petition Date. As such, these liabilities are included within Liabilities subject to compromise. See Note 12 - ~~Liabilities Subject to Compromise~~ ~~for more information.~~

The Company's finance leases are included within Property, plant and equipment with the related liabilities included within Long-term debt or within Liabilities subject to compromise.

ROU assets represent the right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the respective lease term. Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Certain of the Company's operating lease agreements include rental payments ~~based on a percentage of revenue and others include rental payments~~that are adjusted periodically for inflationary changes. ~~Percentage rent contracts, in which lease expense is calculated as a percentage of advertising revenue, and payments~~Payments due to changes in inflationary adjustments are included within variable rent expense, which is accounted for separately from periodic straight-line lease expense. Amounts related to insurance and property taxes in lease arrangements when billed on a pass-through basis are allocated to the lease and non-lease components of the lease based on their relative standalone selling prices. ~~Internationally, the Company is commonly assessed VAT on its contracts, which is treated as a nonlease component.~~

~~(UNAUDITED)~~

Many operating lease contracts expire; however, the Company may continue to operate the leased assets after the rights and obligations of the lease agreements have expired. Such contracts, once expired, are not considered to be leases and future expected payments are not included in operating lease liabilities or ROU assets. ManyCertain of the Company's leases ~~entered into in connection with advertising structures~~ provide options to extend the terms of the agreements. Generally, renewal periods are excluded from minimum lease payments when calculating the lease liabilities as, for most leases, the Company does not consider exercise of such options to be reasonably certain. As a result, unless a renewal option is considered reasonably assured, the optional terms and related payments are not included within the lease liability. The Company's lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.

The implicit rate within the Company's lease agreements is generally not determinable. As such, the Company uses the incremental borrowing rate ("IBR") to determine the present value of lease payments at the commencement of the lease. The IBR, as defined in ASC 842, is "the rate of interest that a lessee would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment."In connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC 852, the Company applied the provisions of fresh start accounting to its Consolidated Financial Statements on the Effective Date. As a result, the Company adjusted the IBR used to value the Company's ROU assets and operating lease liabilities at the Effective Date (see Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting). In addition, upon adoption of ASC 852 in the first quarter of 2019, the Company did not elect the practical expedient to combine non-lease components with the associated lease components. Upon application of fresh start accounting on the Effective Date, the Company elected to use the practical expedient to not separate non-lease components from the associated lease component for all classes of the Company's assets.

Generally, the annual impairment test includes a full quantitative assessment, which involves the preparation of a fair value estimate for each of the Company's reporting units based on the most recent projected financial results, market and industry factors, including comparison to peer companies and the application of the Company's current estimated WACC. However, in connection with emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. As of May 1, 2019, the Company allocated its estimated enterprise fair value to its individual assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC 805, "Business Combinations." As a result of the recent fair value exercise applied in connection with fresh start accounting, the Company opted to use a qualitative assessment for its annual indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of July 1, 2019 in lieu of performing the full quantitative assessment, as permitted by ASC 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other".

The qualitative impairment assessment performed for indefinite-lived intangible assets considered the general macroeconomic environment, industry and market specific conditions, financial performance, including changes in costs and actual versus forecasted results, as well other issues or events specific to the Audio segment.

Based on this assessment and the totality of facts and circumstances, including the business environment in the third quarter of 2019, the Company determined that it was not more likely than not that the fair value of the Company and its reporting units is less than their respective carrying amounts. As such, the Company concluded no indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment was required for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019. During the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019, the Predecessor Company recognized non-cash impairment charges of $91.4 million in relation to indefinite-lived FCC licenses as a result of an increase in the ~~Company's weighted average cost~~WACC used in performing the annual impairment test. The Predecessor Company recognized impairment charges related to its indefinite-lived intangible assets within several iHM radio markets of ~~capital.~~$33.2 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Other Intangible Assets

Other intangible assets include definite-lived intangible assets and permanent easements. The Company’s definite-lived intangible assets primarily include ~~transit~~customer and ~~street furniture contracts,~~advertiser relationships, talent and representation contracts, ~~customer~~trademarks and ~~advertiser relationships, and site leases~~tradenames and other contractual rights, all of which are amortized over the shorter of either the respective lives of the agreements or over the period of time the assets are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to the Company’s future cash flows. Permanent easements are indefinite-lived intangible assets which include certain rights to use real property not owned by the Company. The Company periodically reviews the appropriateness of the amortization periods related to its definite-lived intangible assets. These assets are recorded at amortized cost.

Goodwill

Annual Impairment Test to Goodwill

The Company performs its annual impairment test on goodwill as of July 1 of each year. The Company also tests goodwill at interim dates if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill might be impaired.

Generally, the Company's annual impairment test includes a full quantitative assessment, which involves the preparation of a fair value estimate for each reporting unit based on the most recent projected financial results, market and industry factors, including comparison to peer companies and the application of the Company's current estimated WACC. However, in connection with emergence from bankruptcy, the Company qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. As of May 1, 2019, the Company allocated its estimated enterprise fair value to its individual assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC 805, "Business Combinations."

Upon application of fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852 in connection with the emergence from bankruptcy, the Company recorded goodwill of $3.3 billion, which represented the excess of Reorganization Value over the estimated fair value of the Company's assets and liabilities. Goodwill was further allocated to reporting units based on the relative fair values of the Company's reporting units as of May 1, 2019.

As a result of the recent fair value exercise applied in connection with fresh start accounting, the Company opted to use a qualitative assessment for its annual goodwill impairment test as of July 1, 2019 in lieu of performing the full quantitative assessment, as permitted by ASC 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other".

As of July 1, 2019, the qualitative impairment assessment performed for goodwill considered the general macroeconomic environment, industry and market specific conditions for each reporting unit, financial performance, including changes in costs and actual versus forecasted results, as well other issues or events specific to each reporting unit. In addition, the Company evaluated the impact of changes in the Company's stock price and the trading values of its publicly-traded debt from May 1, 2019 to July 1, 2019 to determine whether or not any changes would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill allocated to its reporting units.

~~NOTE 6 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES~~

The Company and its subsidiaries are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in the Company’s assumptions or the effectiveness of its strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition or results of operations.

Although the Company is involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of the Company’s litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; defamation matters; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; intellectual property claims; and tax disputes.

~~Chapter 11 Cases~~

iHeartCommunications' filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constitutes an event of default that accelerated its obligations under its debt agreements. Due to the Chapter 11 Cases, however, the creditors' ability to exercise remedies under iHeartCommunications' debt agreements were stayed as of March 14, 2018, the Petition Date, and continue to be stayed. On March 21, 2018, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB ("WSFS"), solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027, and not in its individual capacity, filed an adversary proceeding against the Company in the Chapter 11 Cases. In the complaint, WSFS alleged, among other things, that the "springing lien" provisions of the priority guarantee notes indentures and the priority guarantee notes security agreements amounted to "hidden encumbrances" on the Company's property, to which the holders of the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027 were entitled to "equal and ratable" treatment. On March 26, 2018, Delaware Trust Co. ("Delaware Trust"), in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 14% Senior Notes due 2021, filed a motion to intervene as a plaintiff in the adversary proceeding filed by WSFS. In the complaint, Delaware Trust alleged, among other things, that the indenture governing the 14% Senior Notes due 2021 also has its own "negative pledge" covenant, and, therefore, to the extent the relief sought by WSFS in its adversary proceeding is warranted, the holders of the 14% Senior Notes due 2021 are also entitled to the same "equal and ratable" liens on the same property. On April 6, 2018, the Company filed a motion to dismiss the adversary proceeding and a hearing on such motion was held on May

In addition, the complaint seeks to have any votes to accept the Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization by Abrams and Highfields on account of their 2021 notes claims, and any votes to accept the Fourth Amended Plan of Reorganization by defendant CCH on account of its junior notes claims, to be designated and disqualified. The Court held a pre-trial conference and oral argument on October 18, 2018.

5.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2027

On August 7, 2019, iHeartCommunications entered into an indenture (the “New Senior Secured Notes Indenture”) with Capital I, as guarantor, the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and collateral agent, governing the $750.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 that were issued in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the ~~existing Corporate Services Agreement, the termination of any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments from CCOH~~Securities Act, and to the Debtors for trademarks or other intellectual property, the waiver of any post-petition amounts owed by CCOH relating to such trademarks or other intellectual property, and the execution of a new transition services agreement and other separation documents. The CCOH Separation Settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court andpersons outside the United States ~~District Court for~~pursuant to Regulation S under the ~~Southern District~~Securities Act. The 5.25% Senior Secured Notes mature on August 15, 2027 and bear interest at a rate of ~~Texas~~5.25% per annum. Interest is payable semi-annually on ~~January 22, 2019.~~February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on February 15, 2020.

The ~~Separation Agreement contemplates~~5.25% Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Capital I and the subsidiaries of iHeartCommunications that guarantee the Term Loan Facility. The 5.25% Senior Secured Notes and the related guarantees rank equally in ~~connection~~right of payment with all of iHeartCommunications’ and the ~~Separation (i) the cash sweep arrangement under the Corporate Services Agreement between CCOH~~guarantors’ existing and ~~iHeartCommunications will terminate, and (ii) any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments~~future indebtedness that is not expressly subordinated to the ~~Debtors~~5.25% Senior Secured Notes (including the Term Loan Facility, the 6.375% Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Unsecured Notes), effectively equal with iHeartCommunications’ and the guarantors’ existing and future indebtedness secured by ~~CCOH for trademarks or other intellectual property, will terminate effective as~~a first priority lien on the collateral securing the 5.25% Senior Secured Notes, effectively subordinated to all of ~~December 31, 2018.

Since January 1, 2019, CCOH has incurred an additional intercompany liability of $52.1 million in favor of iHeartCommunications as of March 31, 2019. Pursuant to an amendment to the Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement Amendment"), CCOH has agreed to offset the $149 million amount owed by iHeartCommunications on the Effective Date by $52.1 million, resulting in a total net payment to CCOH of approximately $107 million on the Effective Date (including the $10.2 million payment discussed above). Pursuant to the Amendment, within 15 business days after the Effective Date, iHeartCommunications and CCOH will pay the other any intercompany liability incurred from April 1, 2019 through the Effective Date. The Intercompany Note and Due to iHeartCommunications Note are eliminated in consolidation in our consolidated financial statements. The Bankruptcy Court approved a final order to allow us to continue to provide the day-to-day cash management services for CCOH during the Chapter 11 Cases. Upon the occurrence of the Separation on the Effective Date, we will cease to provide these services for CCOH.5.25% Senior Secured Notes.

~~China Investigation~~

Several employees of Clear Media Limited, an indirect, non-wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company whose ordinary shares are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, are subject to an ongoing police investigation in China for misappropriation of funds. The Company is not aware of any litigation, claim or assessment pending against the Company in relation to this investigation. Based on information known to date, the Company believes any contingent liabilities arising from potential misconduct that has been or may be identified by the investigation in China are not material to the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The effect of the misappropriation of funds is reflected in these financial statements in the appropriate periods.

The Company advised both the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and the United States Department of Justice of the investigation at Clear Media Limited and is cooperating to provide information in response to inquiries from the agencies. The Clear Media Limited investigation could implicate the books and records, internal controls and anti-bribery provisions of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which statute and regulations provide for potential monetary penalties as well as criminal and civil sanctions. It is possible that monetary penalties and other sanctions could be assessed on the Company in connection with this matter. The nature and amount of any monetary penalty or other sanctions cannot reasonably be estimated at this time and could be qualitatively or quantitatively material to the Company.

~~Italy Investigation~~

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, the Company identified misstatements associated with VAT obligations in its business in Italy, which resulted in an understatement of its VAT obligation. These misstatements resulted in an understatement of other long-term liabilities of $16.9 million as of December 31, 2017. The effect of these misstatements is reflected in the historical financial statements in the appropriate periods. Upon identification of these misstatements, the Company undertook certain procedures, including a forensic investigation, which is ongoing. In addition, the Company voluntarily disclosed the matter and preliminary findings to the Italian tax authorities in order to commence a discussion on the appropriate calculation of the VAT position. The current expectation is that the Company may have to repay to the Italian tax authority a substantial portion of the VAT previously applied as a credit in relation to the transactions under investigation, amounting to approximately $17 million, including estimated possible penalties and interest. The Company made a payment of approximately $8.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2018 and expects to pay the remainder during the last half of 2019. The ultimate amount to be paid may differ from the estimates, and such differences may be material.

NOTE 9 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Chapter 11 Cases

iHeartCommunications' filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated its obligations under its debt agreements. Due to the Chapter 11 Cases, however, the creditors' ability to exercise remedies under iHeartCommunications' debt agreements were stayed as of March 14, 2018, the Petition Date. On March 21, 2018, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB ("WSFS"), solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027, and not in its individual capacity, filed an adversary proceeding against the Company in the Chapter 11 Cases. In the complaint, WSFS alleged, among other things, that the "springing lien" provisions of the priority guarantee notes indentures and the priority guarantee notes security agreements amounted to "hidden encumbrances" on the Company's property, to which the holders of the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027 were entitled to "equal and ratable" treatment. On March 26, 2018, Delaware Trust Co. ("Delaware Trust"), in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 14% Senior Notes due 2021, filed a motion to intervene as a plaintiff in the adversary proceeding filed by WSFS. In the complaint, Delaware Trust alleged, among other things, that the indenture governing the 14% Senior Notes due 2021 also had its own "negative pledge" covenant, and, therefore, to the extent the relief sought by WSFS in its adversary proceeding was warranted, the holders of the 14% Senior Notes due 2021 would also be entitled to the same "equal and ratable" liens on the same property. On January 15, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered judgment in the Company's favor denying all relief sought by WSFS and all other parties. Pursuant to a settlement (the “Legacy Plan Settlement”) with WSFS and certain consenting Legacy Noteholders of all issues related to confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization, on May 1, 2019 upon the Company's confirmed Plan of Reorganization becoming

effective, this adversary proceeding was deemed withdrawn and/or dismissed, with respect to all parties thereto, with prejudice and in its entirety.

On October 9, 2018, WSFS, solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027, and not in its individual capacity, filed an adversary proceeding against Clear Channel Holdings, Inc. (“CCH”) and certain shareholders of iHeartMedia. The named shareholder defendants were Bain Capital LP; Thomas H. Lee Partners L.P.; Abrams Capital L.P.; and Highfields Capital Management L.P. In the complaint, WSFS alleged, among other things, that the shareholder defendants engaged in a “pattern of inequitable and bad faith conduct, including the abuse of their insider positions to benefit themselves at the expense of third-party creditors including particularly the Legacy Noteholders.” The complaint asked the court to grant relief in the form of equitable subordination of the shareholder defendants’ term loan, priority guarantee notes and 2021 notes claims to any and all claims of the legacy noteholders. In addition, the complaint sought to have any votes to accept the Plan of Reorganization by Abrams and Highfields on account of their 2021 notes claims, and any votes to accept the Plan of Reorganization by defendant CCH on account of its junior notes claims, to be designated and disqualified. Pursuant to the Legacy Plan Settlement, on May 1, 2019 upon the Company's confirmed Plan of Reorganization becoming effective, this adversary proceeding was deemed withdrawn and/or dismissed, with respect to all parties thereto, with prejudice and in its entirety.

Stockholder Litigation

On May 9, 2016, a stockholder of CCOH filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, captioned GAMCO Asset Management Inc. v. iHeartMedia, Inc. et al., C.A. No. 12312-VCS. The complaint named as defendants the Company, iHeartCommunications, Bain Capital Partners, LLC and Thomas H. Lee Partners, L.P., the Company's pre-bankruptcy private equity sponsors and pre-bankruptcy majority owners (together, the "Former Sponsor Defendants"), and the members of CCOH's board of directors. CCOH also was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleged that CCOH had been harmed by the intercompany agreements with iHeartCommunications, CCOH’s lack of autonomy over its own cash and the actions of the defendants in serving the interests of the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Former Sponsor Defendants to the detriment of CCOH and its minority stockholders. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH and that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Former Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the CCOH board of directors' breaches of fiduciary duty, rescission of payments made by CCOH to iHeartCommunications and its affiliates pursuant to dividends declared in connection with the offering of notes by Clear Channel International BV and certain asset sales by CCOH, and an order requiring the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Former Sponsor Defendants to disgorge all profits they have received as a result of the alleged fiduciary misconduct.

On December 29, 2017, another stockholder of CCOH filed a derivative lawsuit (the “Norfolk Lawsuit”) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, captioned Norfolk County Retirement System, v. iHeartMedia, Inc., et al., C.A. No. 2017-0930-JRS. The complaint named as defendants the Company, iHeartCommunications, the Former Sponsor Defendants, and the members of CCOH's board of directors. CCOH was named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleged that CCOH had been harmed by the CCOH Board’s November 2017 decision to extend the maturity date of the intercompany revolving note (the “Third Amendment”) at what the complaint described as far-below-market interest rates. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH, a modification of the Third Amendment to bear a commercially reasonable rate of interest, and an order requiring disgorgement of all profits, benefits and other compensation obtained by defendants as a result of the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties.

On March 7, 2018, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff's verified derivative complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On March 16, 2018, the Company filed a Notice of Suggestion of Pendency of Bankruptcy and Automatic Stay of Proceedings. On May 4, 2018, plaintiff filed its response to the motion to dismiss. On June 26, 2018, the defendants filed a reply brief in further support of their motion to dismiss. Oral argument on the motion to dismiss was held on September 20, 2018.

the State of Delaware, captioned GAMCO Asset Management, Inc. v. Hendrix, et al., C.A. No. 2018-0633-JRS. The complaint named as defendants the Former Sponsor Defendants and the members of CCOH’s board of directors. The complaint alleged that minority shareholders in CCOH during the period November 8, 2017 to March 14, 2018 were harmed by decisions of the CCOH Board and the intercompany note committee of the Board relating to the Intercompany Note. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the CCOH Board, the intercompany note committee, and the Sponsor Defendants breached their fiduciary duties and that the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the Board’s breach of fiduciary duty; and an award of damages, together with pre- and post-judgment interests, to the putative class of minority shareholders.

On December 16, 2018, the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and Norfolk County Retirement System entered into a settlement (the “CCOH Separation Settlement”) of all claims, objections, and other causes of action that have been or could be asserted by or on behalf of CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and/or Norfolk County Retirement System by and among the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., certain individual defendants in the GAMCO Asset Management, Inc. action and/or the Norfolk County Retirement System action, and the Former Sponsor Defendants in such actions. The CCOH Separation Settlement provided for the consensual separation of the Debtors and CCOH, including approximately $149.0 million of recovery to CCOH on account of its claim against iHeartCommunications in the Chapter 11 cases, a $200 million unsecured revolving line of credit from certain of the Debtors to CCOH for a period of up to three years, the transfer of certain of the Debtors’ intellectual property to CCOH, the waiver by the Debtors of the setoff for the value of the transferred intellectual property, mutual releases, the termination of the cash sweep under the existing Corporate Services Agreement, the termination of any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments from CCOH to the Debtors for trademarks or other intellectual property, the waiver of any post-petition amounts owed by CCOH relating to such trademarks or other intellectual property, and the execution of a new transition services agreement and other separation documents. The CCOH Separation Settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas on January 22, 2019. On May 1, 2019, the Debtors’ Plan of Reorganization went effective, and the Norfolk Lawsuit and GAMCO II Lawsuit were each subsequently dismissed with prejudice.

The income tax expense for the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 (Predecessor) primarily consists of the income tax impacts from reorganization and fresh start adjustments, including adjustments to our valuation allowance. The Company recorded income tax benefits of $102.9 million for reorganization adjustments in the Predecessor period, primarily consisting of: (1) tax expense for the reduction in federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards from the cancellation of debt income ("CODI") realized upon emergence; (2) tax benefit for the reduction in deferred tax liabilities attributed primarily to long-term debt that was discharged upon emergence; (3) tax benefit for the effective settlement of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits that were discharged upon emergence; and (4) tax benefit for the reduction in valuation allowance resulting from the adjustments described above. The Company recorded income tax expense of $185.4 million for fresh start adjustments in the Predecessor period, consisting of $529.1 million tax expense for the increase in deferred tax liabilities resulting from fresh start accounting adjustments, which was partially offset by $343.7 million tax benefit for the reduction in the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

The effective tax rate for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 (Predecessor) was 8.2% and 4.3%, respectively. The 2018 effective tax rates were primarily impacted by the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets resulting from current period interest expense limitation carryforward in U.S. federal and certain state jurisdictions due to uncertainty regarding our ability to realize those assets in future periods.

As a result of the Plan of Reorganization, the Company expects the majority of its federal NOL carryforwards and certain state NOL carryforwards to be reduced or eliminated as a result of the CODI realized from the bankruptcy emergence. Pursuant to the attribute reduction and ordering rules set forth in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the reduction in the Company’s tax attributes for excludible CODI does not occur until the last day of the Company’s tax year, December 31, 2019. Accordingly, the tax adjustments recorded in the Predecessor period represent our best estimate using all available information at September 30, 2019. Additionally, the Company recognized a capital loss for tax purposes as a result of the series of transactions to effect the Plan of Reorganization. This capital loss may be carried forward to offset capital gains recognized by the Company in the next five years, subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the Code. The deferred tax asset associated with the capital loss carryforward is offset by a valuation allowance due to significant uncertainty regarding the Company’s ability to utilize the carryforward prior to its expiration. The final tax impacts of the bankruptcy emergence, as well as the Plan of Reorganization’s overall effect on the Company’s tax attributes and tax basis in assets will be refined based on the Company’s final December 31, 2019 financial position as required under the Code. The final tax impacts on the Company's tax attributes could change significantly from the current estimates.

NOTE 11 – STOCKHOLDER'S EQUITY (DEFICIT)

Historically, the Company granted restricted shares of the Company's Class A common stock to certain key individuals. In connection with the effectiveness of the Plan of Reorganization, all unvested restricted shares were canceled.

Pursuant to the Post-Emergence Equity Plan the Company adopted in connection with the effectiveness of our Plan of Reorganization, the Company has granted restricted stock units and options to purchase shares of the Company's Class A common stock to certain key individuals.

This Post-Emergence Equity Plan is designed to provide an incentive to certain key members of management and service providers of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and non-employee members of the Board of Directors and to offer an additional inducement in obtaining the services of such individuals. The Post-Emergence Equity Plan provides for the grant of (a) options and (b) restricted stock units, which, in each case, may be subject to contingencies or restrictions as set forth under the plan and applicable award agreement.

The aggregate number of shares of Class A common stock that may be issued or used for reference purposes with respect to which awards may be granted under the plan shall be equal to the sum of (a) 12,770,387 shares of Class A common stock for awards to key members of management and service providers plus (b) 1,596,298 shares of Class A common stock for awards to non-employee members of the Board. Such shares of common stock may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, consist either in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares of common stock or shares of common stock held in the treasury of the Company.

The Company shall at all times during the term of the plan reserve and keep available such number of shares of common stock as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the plan.

The Company granted 5,542,668 stock options and 3,205,360 restricted stock units on May 30, 2019 in connection with the Company's emergence from bankruptcy (the "Emergence Awards").

Share-based compensation expenses are recorded in corporate expenses and were $17.1 million and $20.2 million for the Successor Company for three months ended September 30, 2019 and the period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019, respectively. Share-based compensation expenses for the Predecessor Company were $0.5 million, 0.5 million and 1.6 million for three months ended September 30, 2018, the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 and the nine months ended September 30, 2018, respectively.

As of September 30, 2019, there was $63.1 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested share-based compensation arrangements with vesting based on service conditions. This cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3.6 years.

Stock Options

The term of each option granted pursuant to the plan may not exceed (a) six (6) years from the date of grant thereof in the case of the awards granted upon emergence and (b) ten (10) years from the date of grant thereof in the case of all other options; subject, however, in either case, to earlier termination as hereinafter provided.

Options granted under the plan are exercisable at such time or times and subject to such terms and conditions as shall be determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee") at the time of grant.

The options granted as Emergence Awards vest (or vested, as applicable), subject to a participant’s continued full-time employment or service with the Company through each applicable vesting date, (a) 20% on July 22, 2019, and (b) an additional 20% vesting on each of the next four anniversaries of the grant date.

No option granted under the plan will provide for any dividends or dividend equivalents thereon.

Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs")

RSUs may be issued either alone or in addition to other awards granted under the plan.

The RSUs granted in respect of the Emergence Awards vest or vested (as applicable), subject to a participant’s continued full-time employment or service with the Company through each applicable vesting date, (a) 20% on July 22, 2019, and (b) an additional 20% vesting on each of the next four anniversaries of the grant date.

Each RSU (representing one share of common stock) awarded to a participant will be credited with dividends paid in respect of one share of common stock (“Dividend Equivalents”). Dividend Equivalents will be withheld by the Company for the participant’s account, and interest may be credited on the amount of cash Dividend Equivalents withheld at a rate and subject to such terms as determined by the Committee. Dividend Equivalents credited to a participant’s account and attributable to any particular RSU (and earnings thereon, if applicable) shall be distributed to the participant upon settlement of such RSU and, if such RSU is forfeited, the participant shall have no right to such Dividend Equivalents.

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Format of Presentation

Management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations (“MD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Our discussion is presented on both a consolidated and segment basis.

Our reportable segments are iHeartMedia (“iHM”), Americas outdoor advertising (“Americas outdoor” or “Americas outdoor advertising”) and International outdoor advertising (“International outdoor” or “International outdoor advertising”). Our iHM segmentprimary business provides media and entertainment services via ~~live~~ broadcast and digital delivery, including our networks businesses, through our Audio segment. We also operate businesses that provide audio and ~~also includes~~media services, including our events and national syndication business. Our Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments provide outdoor advertising services in their respective geographic regions using various digital and traditional display types. Included in the “Other” category is ourfull-service media representation business, Katz Media Group (“Katz Media”) and our provider of scheduling and broadcast software and services, Radio Computing Services ("RCS"). Following the Separation, we ceased to operate the outdoor business, which ~~is ancillary~~prior to the Separation was presented as our ~~other businesses.~~

~~We manage~~Americas outdoor segment and our operating segments by focusing primarily on their operating income, while Corporate expenses, Other operating income (expense), net, Interest expense, Gain on marketable securities, Equity in earnings (loss)International outdoor segment. The historical results of nonconsolidated affiliates, Loss on extinguishment of debt, Other income, net and Income tax expense are managed on a total company basis and are, therefore, included only in our discussion of consolidated results.

~~Certain prior period amounts~~the outdoor business have been reclassified ~~to conform to the 2019 presentation.~~as results from discontinued operations.

~~Current Bankruptcy Proceedings~~

On March 14, 2018 (the "Petition Date"), iHeartMedia, Inc. (the “Company”, “iHeartMedia,” “we” or “us”), iHeartCommunications, Inc. (“iHeartCommunications”) and certain of the Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions for relief (the "Chapter 11 Cases") under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"), in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the "Bankruptcy Court"). Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (“CCOH”) and its direct and indirect subsidiaries did ~~not~~ ~~file voluntary petitions for reorganization under the Bankruptcy Code and are not Debtors in the Chapter 11 Cases.~~

~~The Chapter 11 Cases are being administered under the caption In re: iHeartMedia, Inc.,~~ ~~et al~~. Case No. 18-31274 (MI). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses as “debtors-in-possession” under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. On April 28, 2018, the Debtors filed a plan of reorganization (as amended, the “Plan of Reorganization”) and a related disclosure statement (as amended, the “Disclosure Statement”) with the Bankruptcy Court. On January 22, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization. Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, we currently anticipate the Plan of Reorganization will become effective and iHeartMedia will emerge from Chapter 11 on or about May 1, 2019, ~~(the "Effective Date").~~

Onwe consummated the ~~Effective Date,~~Separation and Reorganization, resulting in a substantial reduction in our long-term indebtedness and corresponding cash interest expenses, and significantly extending the maturities of our outstanding indebtedness, as more fully described under “Liquidity and Capital Resources” below. Over the past ten years, we ~~will emerge~~have transitioned our Audio business from ~~Chapter 11 through (a)~~ a ~~series~~single platform radio broadcast operator to a company with multiple platforms including podcasting, networks and live events. We have also invested in numerous technologies and businesses to increase the competitiveness of ~~transactions through which CCOH, its parent Clear Channel Holdings, Inc. (“CCH”) and its subsidiaries will be separated from, and cease to be controlled by us~~our inventory with our advertisers and our ~~subsidiaries (the “Separation”), and (b) a series of transactions through which we will reduce~~audience. We believe that our ~~debt~~ability to generate free cash flow from ~~approximately $16 billion to approximately $5.8 billion and effect a global compromise and settlement among holders of claims in connection~~these business initiatives coupled with the ~~Chapter 11 Cases (the “Reorganization”), which will involve, among other things, (i)~~significant reduction in interest payments due to our reduced level of indebtedness and our continued efforts to refinance our exit indebtedness with indebtedness with lower interest rates and the ~~restructuring~~elimination of the majority of our ~~indebtedness by (A) replacing~~near-term debt maturities will enable us to generate sufficient cash flows to operate our ~~existing DIP facility with a $450 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “New ABL Facility”)~~businesses and ~~(B) issuing to certain of~~de-lever our prepetition senior creditors, on account of their claims, a $3.5 billion senior secured term loan credit facility, $1.45 billion aggregate principal amount of new Senior Unsecured Notes due 2027 and $800 million aggregate principal amount of new Senior Secured Notes due 2026, (ii) our issuance of new common stock and special warrants to holders of claims and interests, subject to ownership restrictions imposed by the FCC, and (iii) the intercompany settlement transactions and sale of the preferred stock of our indirect wholly-owned subsidiary iHeart Operations, Inc., in each case pursuant to the separation and settlement agreement entered into among us, iHeartCommunications, CCH and CCOH (the "Separation Agreement").

Upon the occurrence of the Separation on the Effective Date, iHeartCommunications will enter into a revolving credit facility that provides for borrowings to Clear Channel Outdoor, LLC ("CCOL"), a subsidiary of CCH, at CCOL’s option, of up to $200 million, with any borrowings bearing interest at a rate equal to the prime lending rate (the "iHC Line of Credit"). The iHC Line of Credit will be unsecured. The facility will have a three year maturity, and may be terminated by CCOL earlier at CCOL's option.

Description of our Business

Our ~~iHM~~Audio strategy centers on delivering entertaining and informative content where our listeners want to find us across multiple platforms, including broadcast, mobile and digital, as well as events. Our primary source of revenue is derived from selling broadcast local and national advertising time on our radio stations, with contracts typically less than one year in duration. The programming formats of our radio stations are designed to reach audiences with targeted demographic characteristics. We are working closely with our advertising and marketing partners to develop tools and leverage data to enable advertisers to effectively reach their desired audiences. We continue to expand the choices for listeners and we deliver our content and sell advertising across multiple distribution channels including digitally via our iHeartRadio mobile application, our station websites and other digital platforms which reach national, regional and local audiences. We also generate revenues from our ~~networks,~~Networks, including Premiere and Total Traffic & Weather, as well as through sponsorships and our nationally recognized live events and other revenue streams. We also generate revenue by providing audio and media services to radio and TV broadcast industry participants through our Katz Media and RCS businesses.

Management typically monitors our outdoor advertising business by reviewing the average rates, average revenue per display, occupancy and inventory levels of each of our display types by market. Our outdoor advertising revenue is derived from selling advertising space on the displays we own or operate in key markets worldwide, consisting primarily of billboards, street furniture and transit displays. Part of our long-term strategy for our outdoor advertising businesses is to pursue the technology of digital displays, including flat screens, LCDs and LEDs, as additions to traditional methods of displaying our clients’ advertisements. We are currently installing these technologies in certain markets, both domestically and internationally.

Our advertising revenue ~~for all of our segments~~ is highly correlated to changes in gross domestic product (“GDP”) as advertising spending has historically trended in line with ~~GDP, both domestically and internationally.~~GDP. Our broadcast national and local revenue, as well as our Katz Media revenue, are generally impacted by political cycles. ~~Internationally, our results are impacted by fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates as well as~~

Emergence from Bankruptcy

On March 14, 2018, iHeartMedia, Inc. (the “Company,” "iHeartMedia," "we" or "us"), iHeartCommunications, Inc. (“iHeartCommunications”) and certain of the ~~economic conditions~~Company's direct and indirect domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors”) filed voluntary petitions for relief (the “Chapter 11 Cases”) under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”), in the ~~foreign markets~~United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas, Houston Division (the “Bankruptcy Court”). On April 28, 2018, the Debtors filed a plan of reorganization and a related disclosure statement (as amended, the “Disclosure Statement”) with the Bankruptcy Court, which was subsequently amended by filing the second, third, fourth and fifth amended Plan of Reorganization and amended versions of the Disclosure Statement. On January 22, 2019, the Modified Fifth Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of iHeartMedia, Inc. and Its Debtor Affiliates (as further modified, the “Plan of Reorganization”) was confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court.

On May 1, 2019 (the “Effective Date”), the conditions to the effectiveness of the Plan of Reorganization were satisfied and the Company emerged from Chapter 11 through (a) a series of transactions (the “Separation”) through which Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc. (“CCOH”), its parent Clear Channel Holdings, Inc. (“CCH”) and its subsidiaries (collectively with CCOH and CCH, the “Outdoor Group”) were separated from, and ceased to be controlled by, the Company and its subsidiaries (the “iHeart Group”), and (b) a series of transactions (the “Reorganization”) through which iHeartCommunications’ debt was reduced from approximately $16 billion to approximately $5.8 billion and a global compromise and settlement among holders of claims

(“Claimholders”) in connection with the Chapter 11 Cases was effected. The compromise and settlement involved, among others, (i) the restructuring of iHeartCommunications’ indebtedness by (A) replacing its “debtor-in-possession” credit facility with a $450 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) and (B) issuing to certain Claimholders, on account of their claims, approximately $3.5 billion aggregate principal amount of new senior secured term loans (the “Term Loan Facility”), approximately $1.45 billion aggregate principal amount of new 8.375% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Senior Unsecured Notes”) and approximately $800 million aggregate principal amount of new 6.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2026 (the “6.375% Senior Secured Notes”), (ii) the Company’s issuance of new Class A common stock, new Class B common stock and special warrants to purchase shares of new Class A common stock and Class B common stock (“Special Warrants”) to Claimholders, subject to ownership restrictions imposed by the Federal Communications’ Commission (“FCC”), (iii) the settlement of certain intercompany transactions, and (iv) the sale of the preferred stock (the “iHeart Operations Preferred Stock”) of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary iHeart Operations, Inc. (“iHeart Operations”) in connection with the Separation.

Results of Operations

Our financial results for the periods from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 and for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 are referred to as those of the “Predecessor” period. Our financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and the period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019 are referred to as those of the “Successor” period. Our results of operations as reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements for these periods are prepared in accordance with GAAP. Although GAAP requires that we report our results for the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 and the period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019 separately, management views the Company’s operating results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 by combining the results of the applicable Predecessor and Successor periods because such presentation provides the most meaningful comparison of our results to prior periods.

The Company cannot adequately benchmark the operating results of the period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019 against any of the previous periods reported in its Consolidated Financial Statements without combining it with the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 and does not believe that reviewing the results of this period in isolation would be useful in identifying trends in or reaching conclusions regarding the Company’s overall operating performance. Management believes that the key performance metrics such as revenue, operating income and Adjusted EBITDA for the Successor period when combined with the Predecessor, period provide more meaningful comparisons to other periods and are useful in identifying current business trends. Accordingly, in addition to presenting our results of operations as reported in our Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with GAAP, the tables and discussion below also present the combined results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

The combined results for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, which we refer to herein as the results for the "nine months ended September 30, 2019" represent the sum of the reported amounts for the Predecessor period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 and the Successor period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019. These combined results are not considered to be prepared in accordance with GAAP and have not been prepared as pro forma results per applicable regulations. The combined operating results do not reflect the actual results we would have achieved absent our emergence from bankruptcy and may not be indicative of future results.

~~Three Months~~

~~iHM revenue increased $21.2 million during~~for the three months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 ~~compared~~and the period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019 was 57.5% and 39.0%, respectively. The effective tax rates for both periods were primarily impacted by tax expense from non-deductible expenses and the provision for state income taxes.

The effective tax rate for continuing operations of the Predecessor Company for period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 (Predecessor) and nine months ended September 30, 2019 was 0.4% and 0.7%, respectively. The income tax expense for the period from January 1, 2019 through May 1, 2019 (Predecessor) and the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily consists of the income tax impacts from reorganization and fresh start adjustments, including adjustments to our valuation allowance. The Company recorded income tax benefits of $102.9 million for reorganization adjustments in the Predecessor period, primarily consisting of: (1) tax expense for the reduction in federal and state net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards from the cancellation of debt income ("CODI") realized upon emergence; (2) tax benefit for the reduction in deferred tax liabilities attributed primarily to long-term debt that was discharged upon emergence; (3) tax benefit for the effective settlement of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits that were discharged upon emergence; and (4) tax benefit for the reduction in valuation allowance resulting from the adjustments described above. The Company recorded income tax expense of $185.4 million related to fresh start adjustments in the Predecessor period, consisting of $529.1 million in tax expense, related to the ~~same~~increase in deferred tax liabilities resulting from fresh start accounting adjustments, offset by $343.7 million in tax benefit for the reduction in the valuation allowance on our deferred tax assets.

The effective tax rate for continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2018 was 8.2% and 4.3%, respectively. The 2018 effective tax rates were primarily impacted by the valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets resulting from current period interest expense limitation carryforward in U.S. federal and certain state jurisdictions due to uncertainty regarding our ability to realize those assets in future periods.

As a result of ~~2018. Digital revenue increased $16.6 million driven by growth in podcasting, primarily~~the Plan of Reorganization, the Company expects the majority of its federal NOL carryforwards and certain state NOL carryforwards to be reduced or eliminated as a result of the CODI realized from the bankruptcy emergence. Pursuant to the attribute reduction and ordering rules set forth in the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the reduction in the Company’s tax attributes for excludible CODI does not occur until the last day of the Company’s tax year, December 31, 2019. Accordingly, the tax adjustments recorded in the Predecessor period represent our ~~acquisition of Stuff Media in October 2018, as well as other digital revenue, such as live radio and other on-demand services. National broadcast spot revenue increased $16.5 million, primarily~~best estimate using all available information at June 30, 2019. Additionally, the Company recognized a capital loss for tax purposes as a result of ~~increased programmatic buying~~the series of transactions to effect the Plan of Reorganization. This capital loss may be carried forward to offset capital gains recognized by ~~our national customers. Revenue from our Network businesses, including both Premiere and Total Traffic & Weather, also increased $6.1 million. These revenue increases were partially~~the Company in the next five years, subject to annual limitations under Section 382 of the Code. The deferred tax asset associated with the capital loss carryforward is offset by a ~~$19.4 million decrease in Local broadcast spot revenue.~~

iHM direct operating expenses increased $26.0 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The increase in Direct operating expenses was primarily driven by higher digital royalties, content costs and compensation-related expenses from higher podcasting and digital subscription revenue. We also incurred higher production costs related to our events, including the iHeartRadio Music Awards. iHM SG&A expenses decreased $13.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018 primarilyvaluation allowance due to ~~lower trade and barter expenses, primarily resulting from~~significant uncertainty regarding the ~~timing, partially offset by higher third-party digital sales activation fees.~~Company’s ability to utilize the

carryforward prior to its expiration. The final tax impacts of the bankruptcy emergence, as well as the Plan of Reorganization’s overall effect on the Company’s tax attributes and tax basis in assets will be refined based on the Company’s final December 31, 2019 financial position as required under the Code. The final tax impacts on the Company's tax attributes could change significantly from the current estimates.

~~Three Months~~

International outdoor revenue decreased $28.2 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Excluding the $24.7 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, International outdoor revenue decreased $3.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The decrease in revenue is due primarily to lower revenue as a result of contracts not being renewed in certain countries, including Italy and Spain. This decrease was partially offset by growth in multiple countries, including Sweden, which continues to benefit from new digital inventory and strong market conditions.

International outdoor direct operating expenses decreased $19.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Excluding the $17.2 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, International outdoor direct operating expenses decreased $1.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. The decrease was primarily due to lower site lease expenses in countries with lower revenue, including Italy, partially offset by site lease expenses related to new contracts. International outdoor SG&A expenses decreased $7.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018. Excluding the $5.6 million impact from movements in foreign exchange rates, International outdoor SG&A expenses decreased $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the same period of 2018.

We define Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated Operating income adjusted to exclude restructuring and reorganization expenses included within Direct operating expenses, Selling, General and Administrative expenses, (“SG&A”) and Corporate expenses ~~include~~and share-based compensation expenses ~~related to iHM, Americas outdoor, International outdoor and our Other category,~~included within Corporate expenses, as well as ~~overall executive, administrative~~the following line items presented in our Statements of Operations: Depreciation and ~~support functions.~~amortization, Impairment charges and Other operating income (expense), net. Alternatively, Adjusted EBITDA is calculated as Net income (loss), adjusted to exclude (Income) loss from discontinued operations, net of tax, Income tax (benefit) expense, Interest expense, Depreciation and amortization, Reorganization items, net, Other (income) expense, net, Gain (loss) on investments, net, Impairment charges, Other operating (income) expense, net, Share-based compensation, and restructuring and reorganization expenses. Restructuring expenses primarily include severance expenses incurred in connection with cost saving initiatives, as well as certain expenses, which, in the view of management, are outside the ordinary course of business or otherwise not representative of the Company's operations during a normal business cycle. Reorganization expenses primarily include the amortization of retention bonus amounts paid or payable to certain members of management directly as a result of the Reorganization. We use Adjusted EBITDA, among other measures, to evaluate the Company’s operating performance. This measure is among the primary measures used by management for the planning and forecasting of future periods, as well as for measuring performance for compensation of executives and other members of management. We believe this measure is an important indicator of our operational strength and performance of our business because it provides a link between operational performance and operating income. It is also a primary measure used by management in evaluating companies as potential acquisition targets. We believe the presentation of this measure is relevant and useful for investors because it allows investors to view performance in a manner similar to the method used by management. We believe it helps improve investors’ ability to understand our operating performance and makes it easier to compare our results with other companies that have different capital structures or tax rates. In addition, we believe this measure is also among the primary measures used externally by our investors, analysts and peers in our industry for purposes of valuation and comparing our operating performance to other companies in our industry. Since Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, operating income or net income (loss) as an indicator of operating performance and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. Because it excludes certain financial information compared with operating income and compared with consolidated net income (loss), the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, users of this financial information should consider the types of events and transactions which are excluded.

(1)	We define Free cash flow from (used for) continuing operations ("Free Cash Flow") as Cash provided by (used for) operating activities from continuing operations less capital expenditures, which is disclosed as Purchases of property, plant and equipment by continuing

operations in the Company's Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows. We use Free Cash Flow, among other measures, to evaluate the Company’s liquidity and its ability to generate cash flow. We believe that Free Cash Flow is meaningful to investors because we review cash flows generated from operations after taking into consideration capital expenditures due to the fact that these expenditures are considered to be a necessary component of ongoing operations. In addition, we believe that Free Cash Flow helps improve investors' ability to compare our liquidity with other companies. Since Free Cash Flow is not a measure calculated in accordance with GAAP, it should not be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, Cash provided by operating activities and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures employed by other companies. Free Cash Flow is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs.

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities ~~was $89.0 million during~~for the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 was $223.4 million compared to ~~$175.5~~$663.3 million of cash provided by operating activities ~~during~~in the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018. The ~~decrease~~primary driver for the change in cash provided by operating activities iswas a $180.3 million decrease in operating cash flows provided by discontinued operations, which decreased from a cash inflow of $147.6 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to a cash outflow of $32.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations decreased from $515.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2018 to $256.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2019 primarily ~~attributed to~~as a result of cash ~~paid in relation to~~payments for Reorganization items, ~~net of $33.9~~including payments for pre-petition liabilities and for bankruptcy professional fees, upon our emergence from bankruptcy on May 1, 2019. Such payments for Reorganization items were $149.3 million ~~during~~higher in the ~~three~~nine months ended March 31, 2019 and changes in working capital balances, particularly accounts payable, which were affected by the timing of payments. Cash paid for interest was $103.9 million during the three months ended March 31,

September 30, 2019 compared to ~~$94.5 million during~~ the ~~three~~nine months ended September 30, 2018. In addition, cash interest payments made by continuing operations increased $61.7 million as a result of interest payments on our debt issued upon our emergence compared to pre-petition interest payments made in the prior year. The Company ceased paying interest on long-term debt classified as Liabilities subject to compromise after the March 31, 2018. The increase of $9.4 million in cash paid for interest is due primarily to the refinancing of the $2,200.0 million 7.625% CCWH Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020 with $2,235.0 million in 9.25% CCWH Senior Subordinated Notes due 2024 during the three months ended March 31, 2019.14, 2018 petition date.

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities of ~~$52.4~~$305.0 million during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 primarily ~~reflected $51.1~~reflects $222.4 million in cash used for investing activities from discontinued operations. In addition, we used $82.5 million for capital expenditures. We spent ~~$20.7~~$68.4 million for capital expenditures in our ~~iHM~~Audio segment primarily related to IT infrastructure, ~~$11.4~~$4.1 million in our ~~Americas outdoor~~Audio & Media Services segment, primarily related to ~~the construction of new advertising structures, such as digital boards, $14.8 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to street furniture~~acquired software and ~~transit advertising structures, including digital displays and $4.2~~$10.0 million in Corporate primarily related to equipment and software purchases.

Cash used for investing activities of ~~$37.2~~$134.9 million during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 primarily ~~reflected~~reflects $105.3 million in cash used for investing activities from discontinued operations. In addition, we used $~~38.7~~47.4 million ~~used~~ for capital expenditures. We spent $~~9.1~~40.8 million for capital expenditures in our ~~iHM~~Audio segment primarily related to IT infrastructure, ~~$12.9~~$2.5 million in our ~~Americas outdoor~~Audio & Media Services segment, primarily related to ~~the construction of new advertising structures, such as digital displays, $15.3 million in our International outdoor segment primarily related to street furniture~~acquired software and ~~transit advertising structures and $1.4~~$4.1 million in Corporate primarily related to equipment and software purchases.

Financing Activities

Cash ~~provided by~~used for financing activities of ~~$2.0~~$60.7 million during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 primarily resulted from the net payment by iHeartCommunications to CCOH as CCOH's recovery of its claims under the Due from iHeartCommunications Note and settlement of the post-petition intercompany note balance, partially offset by $60.0 million in proceeds received from ~~long-term debt.~~the issuance of the iHeart Operations Preferred Stock.

Cash used for financing activities of ~~$92.4~~$493.1 million during the ~~three~~nine months ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2018 primarily resulted from payments on long-term debt and on our receivables based credit facility.

~~Liquidity After Filing~~ In connection with the ~~Chapter 11 Cases~~

~~iHeartCommunications' filing~~replacement of the ~~Chapter 11 Cases constituted an event of default that accelerated its obligations under its debt agreements. Due to the Chapter 11 Cases, however, the creditors' ability to exercise remedies under~~ iHeartCommunications' ~~debt agreements were stayed as of March 14, 2018, the Petition Date, and continue to be stayed.~~

On March 16, 2018, the Debtors entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement (the “RSA”) with certain creditors and equity holders (the “Consenting Stakeholders”). The RSA contemplates the restructuring and recapitalization of the Debtors (the “Restructuring Transactions”) through a Plan of Reorganization, which was confirmed in January 2019. Pursuant to the RSA, the Consenting Stakeholders have agreed to, among other things, support the Restructuring Transactions and vote in favor of a plan of reorganization to effect the Restructuring Transactions.

The RSA provides certain milestones for the Restructuring Transactions. Failure of the Debtors to satisfy these milestones without a waiver or consensual amendment would provide the Consenting Stakeholders a termination right under the RSA. These milestones include (i) the filing of a plan of reorganization and disclosure statement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Debtors and the Consenting Stakeholders, which were filed initially with the Bankruptcy Court on April 28, 2018, (ii) the filing of a motion for approval of the disclosure statement by May 31, 2018, which deadline was subsequently extended to June 22, 2018, and which motion was filed with the Bankruptcy Court on that date, (iii) the entry of an order approving the disclosure statement by July 27, 2018 (subject to one additional 20-day extension on the terms set forth in the RSA), which order was ultimately entered on September 20, 2018 (iv) the entry of an order confirming the plan of reorganization within 75 days of the entry of an order approving the disclosure statement, which order was ultimately entered on January 22, 2019 and (v) the Effective Date occurring by March 14, 2019, which has not yet occurred but is currently expected to occur on or about May 1, 2019. The Debtors satisfied the first and second milestones, but did not satisfy the subsequent milestones and as a result, certain of the Consenting Stakeholders presently have the right to terminate the RSA, but as of the date hereof the RSA has not been terminated.

In general, as debtors-in-possession under the Bankruptcy Code, we are authorized to continue to operate as an ongoing business, but may not engage in transactions outside the ordinary course of business without the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court. Pursuant to first day and second day motions filed with the Bankruptcy Court, the Bankruptcy Court authorized us to conduct our business activities in the ordinary course, including, among other things and subject to the terms and conditions of such orders, authorizing us to: (i) pay employees’ wages and related obligations; (ii) continue to operate our cash management system in a form substantially similar to prepetition practice; (iii) use cash collateral on an interim basis; (iv) continue to honor certain obligations related to on-air talent, station affiliates and royalty obligations; (v) continue to maintain certain customer programs; (vi) pay taxes in the ordinary course; (vii) continue our surety bond program; and (viii) maintain our insurance program in the ordinary course.

~~The filing of the Chapter 11 Cases is intended to permit iHeartCommunications to reduce its indebtedness to achieve a manageable capital structure.~~

On April 28, 2018, the Debtors filed a plan of reorganization (as amended, the “Plan of Reorganization”) and a related disclosure statement (as amended, the “Disclosure Statement”) with the Bankruptcy Court pursuant to Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. On June 21, 2018, the Debtors filed an amended Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. On August 5, 2018, the Debtors filed an amended Plan of Reorganization with the Bankruptcy Court. On August 23, 2018, the Debtors filed a second amended Plan of Reorganization and a further amended Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. On August 28, 2018, the Debtors filed a third amended Plan of Reorganization and a further amended Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. On September 12, 2018, the Debtors filed a fourth amended Plan of Reorganization and a further amended Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. On September 18, 2018, the Debtors filed a revised fourth amended Plan of Reorganization and a further amended Disclosure Statement with the Bankruptcy Court. On September 20, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement and related solicitation and notice procedures for voting on the Plan of Reorganization, and the Debtors filed solicitation versions of the Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement.

Following the entry of the order approving the Disclosure Statement, the Debtors, certain Consenting Stakeholders, and the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors reached an agreement regarding the treatment of general unsecured claims under the Plan of Reorganization. On October 10, 2018, the Debtors filed a fifth amended Plan of Reorganization and a supplement to the Disclosure Statement (the “Disclosure Statement Supplement”). On October 18, 2018, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order approving the Disclosure Statement Supplement and the continued solicitation of holders of general unsecured claims for voting on the Plan of Reorganization, and the Debtors filed solicitation versions of the Plan of Reorganization and Disclosure Statement Supplement. On January 22, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Plan of Reorganization.

Pursuant to the Plan of Reorganization, we will issue new common stock, and special warrants to purchase common stock (“Special Warrants”) in exchange for claims against or interests in the Debtors. Holders of claims with respect to the iHeartCommunications term loan credit agreement, priority guarantee notes, 14% Senior Notes due 2021 and legacy notes will receive their pro rata share of a distribution of new term loans and new notes of iHeartCommunications and 99% of our new equity interests, subject to dilution by any common stock issued pursuant to a post-emergence equity incentive plan, as set forth in the Plan of Reorganization to be filed prior to the Effective Date. The preliminary terms of the new term loans and new notes are set forth in the Disclosure Statement, and the specific terms of the new term loans and new notes will be set forth in a supplement to the Plan of Reorganization. Holders of equity interests in iHeartMedia will receive their pro rata share of 1% of our new equity interests, subject to dilution by any common stock issued pursuant to a post-emergence equity incentive plan. On the Effective Date, the applicable Debtors will execute documents to effect the Separation of CCOH from iHeartMedia, and the equity interests of the successor to CCOH currently held by subsidiaries of iHeartMedia will be distributed to holders of claims with respect to the term loan credit agreement and priority guarantee notes.

The Plan of Reorganization has been confirmed by the Bankruptcy Court, but there can be no assurance that the Effective Date for the Plan of Reorganization will occur on or about May 1, 2019 or at all.

During the pendency of the Chapter 11 Cases, iHeartCommunications' principal sources of liquidity have been limited to cash flow from operations, cash on hand and borrowings under its DIP credit facility. Our ability to maintain adequate liquidity through the reorganization process and beyond depends on successful operation of our business, and appropriate management of operating expenses and capital spending. Our anticipated liquidity needs are highly sensitive to changes in each of these and other factors.

~~On January 18, 2018, iHeartCommunications incurred $25.0 million of additional borrowings under the revolving credit loan portion of its~~ receivables based credit facility ~~bringing its total outstanding borrowings under the facility to $430.0 million. In February 2018, iHeartCommunications prepaid $59.0 million~~with a new DIP Facility on ~~the revolving credit loan portion of this facility. On the Petition Date, we incurred a prepayment premium of $5.5 million upon acceleration of the loans and pre-petition accrued interest and fees~~

~~totaling $2.4 million, which were added to the principal amount outstanding under the facility, bringing the total outstanding borrowings under the facility to $379.0 million.~~ On June 14, 2018, iHeartCommunications entered into a Superpriority Secured Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”), as parent borrower, with Holdings, Subsidiary Borrowers, Citibank, N.A., as a lenderwe repaid the outstanding $306.4 million and administrative agent, the swing line lenders and letter of credit issuers named therein and the other lenders from time to time party thereto. The entry into the DIP Credit Agreement was approved by an order$74.3 million balances of the ~~Court (the “DIP Order”). We used proceeds from this facility (the "DIP Facility") and cash on hand to repay all amounts owed under and terminate iHeartCommunications'~~ receivables based credit ~~facility. As of March 31, 2019, we had no borrowings~~facility's term loan and revolving credit commitments, respectively. An additional $125.0 million principal amount was repaid under the DIP ~~Facility.~~

In connection with the cash management arrangements with CCOH, iHeartCommunications maintains an intercompany revolving promissory note payable by iHeartCommunications to CCOH (the "Intercompany Note"), which matures on May 15, 2019. As of December 31, 2017, the principal amount outstanding under the Intercompany Note was $1,067.6 million. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, CCOH wrote down the balance of the note by $855.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2017 to reflect the estimated recoverable amount of the Intercompany Note as of December 31, 2017, based on CCOH management's best estimate of the cash settlement amount. As of the Petition Date, the principal amount outstanding under the Intercompany Note was $1,031.7 million. As of March 31, 2019, the asset recorded in respect of the Intercompany Note on CCOH's balance sheet was $154.8 million. Pursuant to an order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, as of March 14, 2018, the balance of the Intercompany Note is frozen, and following March 14, 2018, intercompany allocations that would have been reflected in adjustments to the balance of the Intercompany Note are instead reflected in an intercompany balance that accrues interest at a rate equal to the interest under the Intercompany Note. As of March 31, 2019, the liability recorded in respect of the post-petition intercompany balance on CCOH's balance sheet was $73.7 million. The Separation Agreement contemplates that in connection with the Separation (i) the cash sweep arrangement under the Corporate Services Agreement between CCOH and iHeartCommunications will terminate, and (ii) any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments to the Debtors by CCOH for trademarks or other intellectual property, will terminate effective as of December 31, 2018. The Debtors agreed to (i) the repayment of the post-petition intercompany balance outstanding in favor of the Debtors as of December 31, 2018, which was equal to $21.6 million as of that date and (ii) the waiver of the set-off value of any royalties and IP license fees owed to iHeartCommunications equal to approximately $31.8 million from March 14, 2018 through December 31, 2018, such that the resulting intercompany balance on such date was $10.2 million in favor of CCOH, payable on the Effective Date. Since January 1, 2019, CCOH has incurred an additional intercompany liability of $52.1 million in favor of iHeartCommunications as of March 31, 2019. Pursuant to an amendment to the Separation Agreement (the "Separation Agreement Amendment"), CCOH has agreed to offset the $149 million amount owed by us on the Effective Date by $52.1 million, resulting in a total net payment to CCOH of approximately $107 million on the Effective Date (including the $10.2 million payment discussed above). Pursuant to the Amendment, within 15 business days after the Effective Date, iHeartCommunications and CCOH will pay the other any intercompany liability incurred from April 1, 2019 through the Effective Date. The Intercompany Note and Due to iHeartCommunications Note are eliminated in consolidation in our consolidated financial statements. The Bankruptcy Court approved a final order to allow us to continue to provide the day-to-day cash management services for CCOH during the Chapter 11 Cases. Upon the occurrence of the Separation on the Effective Date, we will cease to provide these services for CCOH.

The Bankruptcy Court’s order also approves iHeartCommunications' continuing to provide services to CCOH pursuant to the Corporate Services Agreement during the Chapter 11 Cases. Upon the occurrence of the Separation on the Effective Date, we will enter into a new Transition Services Agreement with iHeartMedia Management Services, Inc. (“iHM Management Services”), iHeartCommunications and CCOH, for one year from the Effective Date (subject to certain rights of New CCOH to extend up to one additional year), pursuant to which iHM Management Services expects to provide, or expects iHeartCommunications, iHeart Operations, us or any of our subsidiaries to provide, CCH with certain administrative and support services and other assistance which CCH will utilize in the conduct of its business as such business was conducted prior to the Separation.

Following the Chapter 11 Cases, all interest payments due on debt held by the Debtors were stayed, which included $165.1 million on the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, $78.8 million on the 9.0% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021, $45.0 million on the 9.0% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2022, $50.5 million on the 10.625% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2023, $49.0 million on the 11.25% Priority Guarantee Notes due 2021 and $124.7 million on the 14.0% Senior Notes due 2021Facility during the three months ended ~~March 31, 2019.~~September 30, 2018.

The Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting, which contemplates continuity of operations, realization of assets, and satisfaction of liabilities and commitments in the normal course of business. The Consolidated Financial Statements do not reflect any adjustments that might result from the outcome of the Chapter 11 Cases, including but not limited to future effects from relief or emergence. We have significant indebtedness and we have reclassified all of the Debtors' indebtedness other than the DIP Facility to Liabilities Subject to Compromise at March 31, 2019. Our level of indebtedness has adversely impacted and is continuing to adversely impact our

financial condition. As a result of our financial condition, the defaults under our debt agreements, and the risks and uncertainties surrounding the Chapter 11 Cases, substantial doubt exists that we will be able to continue as a going concern.

~~Liquidity Following the Separation and Reorganization~~Anticipated Cash Requirements

The Separation and Reorganization ~~will result~~resulted in a new capital structure with significantly lower levels of long-term debt and a corresponding decrease in debt service requirements after emergence compared to historical debt levels. As a result of the Separation and Reorganization, our consolidated long-term debt ~~is expected to decrease~~decreased from ~~$20.5~~approximately $16 billion to ~~approximately~~ $5.8 billion. In ~~2018,~~the Successor period from May 2, 2019 to September 30, 2019, we paid ~~$398.0~~$79.3 million of cash interest, and incurred contractual interest of $1,189.1 million that was not paid. In 2017, we paid cash interest of $1,772.4 million. After the Effective Date, we anticipate that our annual cash interest payments will be less than $400 million.interest.

In connection with the Separation and Reorganization, ~~and Separation,~~ we ~~anticipate that we will be required to make certain cash payments, including approximately $107~~paid CCOH $115.8 million ~~to be paid to CCOH~~ in settlement of intercompany payable balances, asincluding settlement of ~~March 31, 2019, $17.7~~the Due from iHeartCommunications Note and post-petition intercompany balances, $15.8 million to cure contracts, ~~$19.7~~$17.5 million for a general unsecured claims reserve, and ~~approximately $124~~$201.6 million for professional fees (of which ~~$99~~$126.3 million ~~is to be~~was paid on the Effective Date). Other anticipated cash requirements for the year ended December 31, 2019 include capital expenditures of approximately $129 million and $47.4 million to be paid in the fourth quarter of 2019 for the remaining consideration for two businesses acquired in the fourth quarter of 2018.

~~Following the Effective Date, we expect that our~~Our primary sources of liquidity ~~will be~~are cash on hand, which consisted of $277.1 million as of September 30, 2019, cash flow from operations and borrowing capacity under ~~the New~~our ABL Facility. ~~Upon emergence, we expect to have cash on hand of approximately $60 million after payment of settlement amounts and professional fees on the Effective Date.~~ As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, we had a facility size of $450.0 million under iHeartCommunications' ABL Facility, had no borrowings outstanding ~~under the DIP Facility, a borrowing base of $426.8 million, $59.0~~and $49.2 million of outstanding letters of credit, ~~and had an availability block requirement of $37.5 million,~~ resulting in ~~$330.3~~$400.8 million of excess availability.

~~Following the Effective Date, we~~We expect that our primary anticipated uses of liquidity will be to fund our working capital, make interest payments and voluntary prepayments of principal on our long-term debt ~~service,~~and to fund capital expenditures and other obligations. These other obligations include dividend payments to be due to the investor of preferred stock of iHeart Operations, the terms of which are further described in Note 98 to our financial statements included ~~herein,~~herein. We anticipate that we will have approximately $105 million of cash interest payments in the fourth quarter of 2019 and ~~any borrowings~~approximately $400 million of cash interest payments in 2020. Over the past ten years, we have transitioned our Audio business from a single platform radio broadcast operator to ~~be provided~~a company with multiple platforms, including podcasting, networks and live events.

On August 7, 2019, iHeartCommunications completed the sale of $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.25% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the "5.25% Senior Secured Notes") in a private placement. We used the net proceeds from the 5.25% Senior Secured Notes, together with cash on hand, to ~~comply with the financial covenants~~prepay at par $740.0 million of borrowings outstanding under our ~~new financing agreements, depends on our future operating performance and cash flows from operations, which are subject~~Term Loan Facility.

On February 4, 2019, CCWH, a subsidiary of CCOH, delivered a conditional notice of redemption calling all of its outstanding $275.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Series A Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020 (the “Series A CCWH Subordinated Notes”) and $1,925.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Series B Senior Subordinated Notes due 2020 (the “Series B CCWH Subordinated Notes” and together with the Series A CCWH Subordinated Notes, the “CCWH Subordinated Notes”) for redemption on March 6, 2019. The redemption was conditioned on the closing of the offering of $2,235.0 million of newly-issued 9.25% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2024 (the "New CCWH Subordinated Notes"). At the closing of such offering on February 12, 2019, CCWH deposited with the trustee for the CCWH Subordinated Notes a portion of the proceeds from the new notes in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the CCWH Subordinated Notes to, but not including, the redemption date. CCWH irrevocably instructed the trustee to apply such funds to the full payment of the CCWH Subordinated Notes on the redemption date. Concurrently therewith, CCWH elected to satisfy and discharge the indentures governing the CCWH

Subordinated Notes in accordance with their terms and the trustee acknowledged such satisfaction and discharge. As a result of the satisfaction and discharge of the indentures, CCWH and the guarantors of the CCWH Subordinated Notes have been released from their remaining obligations under the indentures and the CCWH Subordinated Notes.

As of the Petition Date, we ceased accruing interest expense in relation to long-term debt reclassified as Liabilities subject to compromise.

~~CCWH Senior Subordinated Notes~~

~~As of March 31, 2019,~~For additional information regarding our debt, including the New CCWH Senior Subordinated Notes represented $2,235.0 million aggregate principal amount of indebtedness outstanding. On February 4, 2019, CCWH delivered a conditional notice of redemption calling all of its outstanding CCWH Subordinated Notes for redemption on March 6, 2019. The redemption was conditioned on the closingterms of the offering of $2,235.0 million of New CCWH Subordinated Notes. At the closing of such offering on February 12, 2019, CCWH deposited with the trustee for the CCWH Subordinated Notes a portion of the proceeds from the new notes in an amount sufficientgoverning documents, refer to pay and discharge the principal amount outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the CCWH Subordinated Notes to, but not including, the redemption date. CCWH irrevocably instructed the trustee to apply such funds to the full payment of the CCWH Subordinated Notes on the redemption date. Concurrently therewith, CCWH elected to satisfy and discharge the indentures governing the CCWH Subordinated Notes in accordance with their terms and the trustee acknowledged such discharge and satisfaction. As a result of the satisfaction and discharge of the indentures, CCWH and the guarantors of the CCWH Subordinated Notes have been released from their remaining obligations under the indentures and the CCWH Subordinated Notes.

The New CCWH Subordinated Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of February 12, 2019 (the “Indenture”), among Clear Channel Worldwide, CCOH, Clear Channel Outdoor, Inc. (“CCOI”) and the other guarantors party thereto (collectively with CCOH and CCOI, the “Guarantors”), and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, paying agent, registrar and transfer agent (the “Trustee”)Note 8, Long-Term Debt. The New CCWH Subordinated Notes mature on February 15, 2024 and bear interest at a rate of 9.25% per annum. Prior to CCOH’s separation from iHeartMedia, Inc. in connection with the completion of iHeartMedia, Inc.’s Chapter 11 proceedings, interest will be payable to the Trustee weekly in arrears. Following the Separation, interest will be payable to the Trustee semi-annually. In each case, interest will be payable to the holders of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year, beginning on August 15, 2019.

The New CCWH Subordinated Notes and the guarantees of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes are unsecured senior subordinated obligations that rank pari passu in right of payment to all senior subordinated indebtedness of Clear Channel Worldwide and the Guarantors, junior to all senior indebtedness of Clear Channel Worldwide and the Guarantors, including Clear Channel Worldwide’s outstanding 6.50% Series A Senior Notes and Series B Senior Notes due 2022 (the “Senior Notes”), and senior to all future subordinated indebtedness of Clear Channel Worldwide and the Guarantors that expressly provides that it is subordinated to the New CCWH Subordinated Notes. Following the satisfaction of certain conditions, including that the Senior Notes are no longer outstanding and at least a portion of such notes has been refinanced with senior secured indebtedness, the New CCWH Subordinated Notes and the guarantees of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes will cease to be subordinated obligations and thereafter will rank pari passu in right of payment with all senior indebtedness of Clear Channel Worldwide and the Guarantors (the “step-up”). There can be no assurance that the step-up will ever occur and that the New CCWH Subordinated Notes and the guarantees will ever cease to be subordinated indebtedness of Clear Channel Worldwide and the Guarantors.

Clear Channel Worldwide may redeem the New CCWH Subordinated Notes at its option, in whole or part, at any time prior to February 15, 2021, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes redeemed, plus a make-whole premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. Clear Channel Worldwide may redeem the New CCWH Subordinated Notes, in whole or in part, on or after February 15, 2021, at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. At any time prior to February 15, 2021, Clear Channel Worldwide may elect to redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes at a redemption price equal to 109.25% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, with the net proceeds of one or more equity offerings. In addition, Clear Channel Worldwide may redeem up to 20% of the aggregate principal amount of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes at any time prior to February 15, 2021, using the net proceeds from certain other equity offerings at 103% of the principal amount of the New CCWH Subordinated Notes.

As of the Effective Date, ~~of the Plan of Reorganization,~~ these management fees ~~will be~~were waived.

~~CCOH Dividends~~

In connection with the cash management arrangements with CCOH, iHeartCommunications maintained an intercompany revolving promissory note payable by iHeartCommunications to CCOH (the “Intercompany Note”), which consists of the net activities resulting from day-to-day cash management services provided by iHeartCommunications to CCOH. As of March 14, 2018, the principal amount outstanding under the Intercompany Note was $1,031.7 million. The Intercompany Note is eliminated in consolidation in our consolidated financial statements.

The Intercompany Note previously was the subject of litigation. Pursuant to the terms of the settlement of that litigation, CCOH’s board of directors established an intercompany note committee for the specific purpose of monitoring the Intercompany Note. The CCOH Intercompany Note Committee has the non-exclusive authority, pursuant to the terms of its charter, to demand payments under the Intercompany Note under certain specified circumstances tied to the Company’s liquidity or the amount outstanding under the Intercompany Note as long as CCOH makes a simultaneous dividend equal to the amount so demanded. If the specified circumstances tied to the Company’s liquidity occur, the CCOH Intercompany Note Committee is authorized to demand repayment of up to the full principal amount of the Intercompany Note, if it declares a simultaneous dividend to CCOH’s stockholders in the same amount. As a result of the Chapter 11 Cases, the balance on the Intercompany Note is currently frozen and any payment pursuant to such demand would be subject to the approval of the Bankruptcy Court.

As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the balance under the Intercompany Note has become immediately due and payable. Pursuant to an order entered by the Bankruptcy Court, as of March 14, 2018, the balance of the Intercompany Note is frozen, and following March 14, 2018, intercompany allocations that would have been reflected in adjustments to the balance of the Intercompany Note are instead reflected in an intercompany balance that accrues interest at a rate equal to the interest under the Intercompany Note. As of March 31, 2019, the liability recorded in respect of the post-petition intercompany arrangement on CCOH's balance sheet was $73.7 million. The Separation Agreement contemplates that in connection with the Separation (i) the

cash sweep arrangement under the Corporate Services Agreement between CCOH and iHeartCommunications will terminate, and (ii) any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments to the Debtors by CCOH for trademarks or other intellectual property, will terminate effective as of December 31, 2018. As noted above, the Separation Agreement provides for (i) the repayment of the post-petition intercompany balance outstanding in favor of us as of December 31, 2018, which was equal to $21.6 million as of that date and (ii) the waiver of the set-off value of any royalties and IP license fees owed to us equal to approximately $31.8 million from March 14, 2018 through December 31, 2018, such that the resulting intercompany balance on such date was $10.2 million in favor of CCOH, payable on the Effective Date. Since January 1, 2019, CCOH has incurred an additional intercompany liability of $52.1 million in favor of us as of March 31, 2019. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement Amendment, CCOH has agreed to offset the $149 million owed by us on the Effective Date by $52.1 million, resulting in a total net payment to CCOH of approximately $107 million on the Effective Date (including the $10.2 million payment discussed above). Pursuant to the Separation Agreement Amendment, within 15 business days after the Effective Date, iHeartCommunications and CCOH will pay the other any intercompany liability incurred from April 1, 2019 through the Effective Date.

Commitments, Contingencies and Guarantees

We are currently involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued our estimate of the probable costs for resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. Please refer to “Legal Proceedings” in Part II, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

SEASONALITY

Typically, the ~~iHM, Americas outdoor and International outdoor segments experience their~~Audio segment experiences its lowest financial performance in the first quarter of the calendar year, with International outdoor historically experiencing a loss from operations in that period. Our International outdoor segment typically experiences its strongest performance in the second and fourth quarters of the calendar year. We expect this trend to continue in the future. Due to this seasonality and certain other factors, the results for the interim periods may not be indicative of results for the full year. In addition, our Audio segment and our Audio and media representation business are impacted by political cycles and generally experience higher revenues in congressional election years, and particularly in presidential election years. This cyclicality may affect comparability of results between years.

MARKET RISK

We are exposed to market risks arising from changes in market rates and prices, including movements in interest rates ~~foreign currency exchange rates~~ and inflation.

Interest Rate Risk

A significant amount of our long-term debt bears interest at variable rates. Accordingly, our earnings will be affected by changes in interest rates. As of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019, approximately ~~31%~~48% of our aggregate principal amount of long-term debt bore interest at floating rates. Assuming the current level of borrowings and assuming a 50% change in LIBOR, ~~disregarding the impact of the Chapter 11 Cases on our requirement to pay interest on our long-term debt,~~ it is estimated that our interest expense for the ~~three months ended March 31,~~period from May 2, 2019 through September 30, 2019 would have changed by ~~$19.7~~$14.5 million.

In the event of an adverse change in interest rates, management may take actions to mitigate our exposure. However, due to the uncertainty of the actions that would be taken and their possible effects, the preceding interest rate sensitivity analysis assumes no such actions. Further, the analysis does not consider the effects of the change in the level of overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment.

~~Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk~~

We have operations in countries throughout the world. Foreign operations are measured in their local currencies. As a result, our financial results could be affected by factors such as changes in foreign currency exchange rates or weak economic conditions in the foreign markets in which we have operations. We believe we mitigate a small portion of our exposure to foreign currency fluctuations with a natural hedge through borrowings in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our foreign operations reported a net loss of $37.6 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019. We estimate a 10% increase in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies would have decreased our net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 by $3.8 million. A 10% decrease in the value of the U.S. dollar relative to foreign currencies during the three months ended March 31, 2019 would have increased our net loss for the same period by a corresponding amount.

This analysis does not consider the implications that such currency fluctuations could have on the overall economic activity that could exist in such an environment in the U.S. or the foreign countries or on the results of operations of these foreign entities.

Inflation

Inflation is a factor in the economies in which we do business and we continue to seek ways to mitigate its effect. Inflation has affected our performance in terms of higher costs for wages, salaries and equipment. Although the exact impact of inflation is indeterminable, we believe we have offset these higher costs by increasing the effective advertising rates of most of our broadcasting stations ~~and outdoor display faces~~ in our ~~iHM, Americas outdoor~~Audio operations.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The preparation of our financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates, judgments and ~~International outdoor operations.~~assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amount of expenses during the reporting period. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate our estimates that are based on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. The result of these evaluations forms the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities and the reported amount of expenses that are not readily apparent from other sources. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such difference could be material. Our significant accounting policies are discussed in the notes to our consolidated financial statements included in Note 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Management believes that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require management’s most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. The following narrative describes these critical accounting estimates, the judgments and assumptions and the effect if actual results differ from these assumptions.

Fresh Start Accounting

In connection with our emergence from bankruptcy and in accordance with ASC 852, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. We were required to adopt fresh start accounting because (i) the holders of existing voting shares of the Predecessor Company received less than 50% of the voting shares of the Successor Company and (ii) the reorganization value of our assets immediately prior to confirmation of the Plan of Reorganization was less than the post-petition liabilities and allowed claims.

In accordance with ASC 852, with the application of fresh start accounting, we allocated our reorganization value to our individual assets based on our estimated fair values in conformity with ASC 805, "Business Combinations." The reorganization value represents the fair value of the Successor Company's assets before considering liabilities. The excess reorganization value over the fair value of identified tangible and intangible assets is reported as goodwill.

Reorganization Value

As set forth in the Plan of Reorganization and the Disclosure Statement, the enterprise value of the Successor Company was estimated to be between $8.0 billion and $9.5 billion. Based on the estimates and assumptions discussed below, we estimated the enterprise value to be $8.75 billion, which is the mid-point of the range of enterprise value.

Management and its valuation advisors estimated the enterprise value of the Successor Company, which was approved by the Bankruptcy Court. The selected publicly traded companies analysis approach, the discounted cash flow analysis (“DCF”) approach and the selected transactions analysis approach were all utilized in estimating enterprise value. The use of each approach provides corroboration for the other approaches. To estimate enterprise value utilizing the selected publicly traded companies analysis method, valuation multiples derived from the operating data of publicly-traded benchmark companies to the same operating data of the Company were applied. The selected publicly traded companies analysis identified a group of comparable companies giving consideration to lines of business and markets served, size and geography. The valuation multiples were derived based on

historical and projected financial measures of revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and applied to projected operating data of the Company.

To estimate enterprise value utilizing the discounted cash flow method, an estimate of future cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 with a terminal value was determined and discounted the estimated future cash flows to present value. The expected cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 with a terminal value were based upon certain financial projections and assumptions provided to the Bankruptcy Court. The expected cash flows for the period 2019 to 2022 were derived from earnings forecasts and assumptions regarding growth and margin projections, as applicable. A terminal value was included, calculated using the terminal multiple method, which estimates a range of values at which the Successor Company will be valued at the end of the Projection Period based on applying a terminal multiple to final year OIBDAN, which is defined as consolidated operating income adjusted to exclude non-cash compensation expenses included within corporate expenses, as well as Depreciation and amortization, Impairment charges and Other operating income (expense), net.

To estimate enterprise value utilizing the selected transactions analysis, valuation multiples were derived from an analysis of consideration paid and net debt assumed from publicly disclosed merger or acquisition transactions, and such multiples were applied to the broadcast cash flows of the Successor Company. The selected transactions analysis identified companies and assets involved in publicly disclosed merger and acquisition transactions for which the targets had operating and financial characteristics comparable in certain respects to the Successor Company.

For information regarding fresh start accounting, refer to Note 3, Fresh Start Accounting to our Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Annual Goodwill and Indefinite-lived Intangible Asset Impairment Test

We perform our annual impairment test on goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets as of July 1 of each year. We also test goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets at interim dates if events or changes in circumstances indicate that goodwill or indefinite-lived intangible assets might be impaired.

Generally, our annual impairment test includes a full quantitative assessment, which involves the preparation of a fair value estimate for each of our reporting units based on our most recent projected financial results, market and industry factors, including comparison to peer companies and the application of our current estimated weighted average cost of capital ("WACC"). However, in connection with our emergence from bankruptcy, we qualified for and adopted fresh start accounting on the Effective Date. As of May 1, 2019, we allocated our estimated enterprise fair value to our individual assets and liabilities based on their estimated fair values in conformity with ASC 805, "Business Combinations." As a result of the recent fair value exercise applied in connection with fresh start accounting, we opted to use a qualitative assessment for our annual goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment test as of July 1, 2019 in lieu of performing the full quantitative assessment, as permitted by ASC 350, "Intangibles - Goodwill and Other".

Indefinite-lived Intangible Assets

In connection with our Plan of Reorganization, we applied fresh start accounting as required by ASC 852 and recorded all of our assets and liabilities at estimated fair values, including our FCC licenses, which are included within our Audio reporting unit. As of July 1, 2019, the qualitative impairment assessment performed for indefinite-lived intangible assets considered the general macroeconomic environment, industry and market specific conditions, financial performance, including changes in costs and actual versus forecasted results, as well other issues or events specific to the Audio reporting unit.

Goodwill

Upon application of fresh start accounting in accordance with ASC 852 in connection with our emergence from bankruptcy, we recorded goodwill of $3.3 billion, which represented the excess of estimated enterprise fair value over the estimated fair value of our assets and liabilities. Goodwill was further allocated to our reporting units based on the relative fair values of our reporting units as of May 1, 2019. See Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements located in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information.

and actual versus forecasted results, as well other issues or events specific to each reporting unit. In addition, we evaluated the impact of changes in our stock price and the trading values of our publicly-traded debt from May 1, 2019 to July 1, 2019 to determine whether or not any changes would indicate a potential impairment of goodwill allocated to our reporting units.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

Required information is presented under “Market Risk” within Item 2 of this Part I.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

As required by Rule 13a-15(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, we have carried out an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that are filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure and is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and our Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 at the reasonable assurance level.

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended ~~March 31,~~September 30, 2019 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

We currently are involved in certain legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business and, as required, have accrued an estimate of the probable costs for the resolution of those claims for which the occurrence of loss is probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. These estimates have been developed in consultation with counsel and are based upon an analysis of potential results, assuming a combination of litigation and settlement strategies. It is possible, however, that future results of operations for any particular period could be materially affected by changes in our assumptions or the effectiveness of our strategies related to these proceedings. Additionally, due to the inherent uncertainty of litigation, there can be no assurance that the resolution of any particular claim or proceeding would not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or results of operations.

Although we are involved in a variety of legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business, a large portion of our litigation arises in the following contexts: commercial disputes; defamation matters; employment and benefits related claims; governmental fines; intellectual property claims; and tax disputes. The Plan of Reorganization provides for the treatment of claims against the Debtors' bankruptcy estates, including pre-petition liabilities that have not otherwise been satisfied or addressed during the Chapter 11 Cases.

~~Chapter 11 Cases~~

~~iHeartCommunications' filing of the Chapter 11 Cases constitutes an event of default that accelerated its obligations under its debt agreements. Due~~For information regarding legal proceedings, refer to ~~the Chapter 11 Cases, however, the creditors' ability to exercise remedies under iHeartCommunications' debt agreements were stayed as of March 14, 2018, the date of the Chapter 11 petition filing,~~Note 9, Commitments and ~~continue to be stayed. See Note 6~~ Contingencies to our ~~consolidated financial statements located~~Consolidated Financial Statements included in ~~Item 8 of~~ Part III of this ~~Annual~~Quarterly Report on Form 10-K for more information about the debt agreements. On March 21, 2018, Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB ("WSFS"), solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027 (collectively with the 5.50% Senior Notes due 2016, the “Legacy Notes”), and not in its individual capacity, filed an adversary proceeding against us in the Chapter 11 Cases. In the complaint, WSFS alleged, among other things, that the "springing lien" provisions of the priority guarantee notes indentures and the priority guarantee notes security agreements amounted to "hidden encumbrances" on the Company's property, to which the holders of the 6.875% senior notes due 2018 and 7.25% senior notes due 2027 were entitled to "equal and ratable" treatment. On March 26, 2018, Delaware Trust Co. ("Delaware Trust"), in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 14.0% Senior Notes due 2021, filed a motion to intervene as a plaintiff in the adversary proceeding filed by WSFS. In the complaint, Delaware Trust alleged, among other things, that the indenture governing the 14.0% Senior Notes due 2021 also has its own "negative pledge" covenant, and, therefore, to the extent the relief sought by WSFS in its adversary proceeding is warranted, the holders of the 14.0% Senior Notes due 2021 are also entitled to the same "equal and ratable" liens on the same property. On April 6, 2018, we filed a motion to dismiss the adversary proceeding and a hearing on such motion was held on May 7, 2018. We answered the complaint and completed discovery. The trial was held on October 24, 2018. On January 15, 2019, the Bankruptcy Court entered judgment in our favor denying all relief sought by WSFS and all other parties. Pursuant to a settlement (the “Legacy Plan Settlement”) with WSFS and certain consenting Legacy Noteholders of all issues related to confirmation of our Plan of Reorganization, upon our confirmed Plan of Reorganization becoming effective, this adversary proceeding shall be deemed withdrawn and/or dismissed, with respect to all parties thereto, with prejudice and in its entirety.10-Q.

On October 9, 2018, WSFS, solely in its capacity as successor indenture trustee to the 6.875% Senior Notes due 2018 and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2027, and not in its individual capacity, filed an adversary proceeding against Clear Channel Holdings Inc. (“CCH”) and certain shareholders of iHeartMedia. The named shareholder defendants are Bain Capital LP; THL; Abrams Capital L.P. ("Abrams"); and Highfields Capital Management L.P. ("Highfields"). In the complaint, WSFS alleged, among other things, that the shareholder defendants engaged in a “pattern of inequitable and bad faith conduct, including the abuse of their insider positions to benefit themselves at the expense of third-party creditors including particularly the Legacy Noteholders.” The complaint asks the court to grant relief in the form of equitable subordination of the shareholder defendants’ term loan, Priority Guarantee Notes and 14.0% Senior Notes due 2021 claims to any and all claims of the legacy noteholders. In addition, the complaint sought to have any votes to accept the fourth amended plan of reorganization by Abrams and Highfields on account of their 2021 notes claims, and any votes to accept the fourth amended plan of reorganization by the defendant Clear Channel Holdings, Inc., ("CCH") on account of its junior notes claims, to be designated and disqualified. The court held a pre-trial conference and oral argument on October 18, 2018. Pursuant to the Legacy Plan Settlement, upon our confirmed Plan of Reorganization becoming effective, this adversary proceeding shall be deemed withdrawn and/or dismissed, with respect to all parties thereto, with prejudice and in its entirety.

~~Stockholder Litigation~~

On May 9, 2016, a stockholder of CCOH filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, captioned GAMCO Asset Management Inc. v. iHeartMedia Inc. et al., C.A. No. 12312-VCS. The complaint names as defendants the Company, iHeartCommunications, Bain Capital and THL (together, the "Sponsor Defendants"), the Company's private equity sponsors and majority owners, and the members of CCOH's board of directors. CCOH also is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that CCOH has been harmed by the intercompany agreements with iHeartCommunications, CCOH’s lack of autonomy over its own cash and the actions of the defendants in serving the interests of the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to the detriment of CCOH and its minority stockholders. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the defendants have breached their fiduciary duties by causing CCOH to: (i) continue to loan cash to iHeartCommunications under the intercompany note at below-market rates; (ii) abandon its growth and acquisition strategies in favor of transactions that would provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications; (iii) issue new debt in Clear Channel International B.V.'s, an international subsidiary of ours, offering of 8.75% Senior Notes due 2020 (the "CCIBV Note Offering") to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend; and (iv) effect the sales of certain outdoor markets in the U.S. (the "Outdoor Asset Sales") allegedly to provide cash to the Company and iHeartCommunications through a dividend. The complaint also alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the directors' breaches of their fiduciary duties. The complaint further alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants were unjustly enriched as a result of these transactions and that these transactions constituted a waste of corporate assets for which the defendants are liable to CCOH. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH and that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the CCOH board of directors' breaches of fiduciary duty, rescission of payments made by CCOH to iHeartCommunications and its affiliates pursuant to dividends declared in connection with the CCIBV Note Offering and Outdoor Asset Sales, and an order requiring the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants to disgorge all profits they have received as a result of the alleged fiduciary misconduct.

On July 20, 2016, the defendants filed a motion to dismiss plaintiff's verified stockholder derivative complaint for failure to state a claim upon which relief can be granted. On November 23, 2016, the Court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss all claims brought by the plaintiff. On December 19, 2016, the plaintiff filed a notice of appeal of the ruling. The oral hearing on the appeal was held on October 11, 2017. On October 12, 2017, the Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the lower court's ruling, dismissing the case.

On December 29, 2017, another stockholder of CCOH filed a derivative lawsuit in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, captioned Norfolk County Retirement System, v. iHeartMedia, Inc., et al., C.A. No. 2017-0930-JRS. The complaint names as defendants the Company, iHeartCommunications, the Sponsor Defendants, and the members of CCOH's board of directors. CCOH is named as a nominal defendant. The complaint alleges that CCOH has been harmed by the CCOH board of directors' November 2017 decision to extend the maturity date of the intercompany revolving note (the “Third Amendment”) at what the complaint describes as far-below-market interest rates. Specifically, the complaint alleges that (i) the Company and Sponsor defendants breached their fiduciary duties by exploiting their position of control to require CCOH to enter the Third Amendment on terms unfair to CCOH; (ii) the CCOH board of directors breached their duty of loyalty by approving the Third Amendment and elevating the interests of the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor Defendants over the interests of CCOH and its minority unaffiliated stockholders; and (iii) the terms of the Third Amendment could not have been agreed to in good faith and represent a waste of corporate assets by the CCOH board of directors. The complaint further alleges that the Company, iHeartCommunications and the Sponsor defendants were unjustly enriched as a result of the unfairly favorable terms of the Third Amendment. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the defendants breached their fiduciary duties to CCOH, a modification of the Third Amendment to bear a commercially reasonable rate of interest, and an order requiring disgorgement of all profits, benefits and other compensation obtained by defendants as a result of the alleged breaches of fiduciary duties.

of the intercompany note committee breached their fiduciary duties by not demanding payment under the Intercompany Note and issuing a simultaneous dividend after a threshold tied to the Company’s liquidity had been reached; (ii) the CCOH board of directors breached their fiduciary duties by approving the Third Amendment rather than allowing the Intercompany Note to expire; (iii) the CCOH board breached their fiduciary duties by not demanding payment under the Intercompany Note and issuing a simultaneous dividend after a threshold tied to the Company’s liquidity had been reached; (iv) the Sponsor Defendants breached their fiduciary duties by not directing the CCOH board to permit the Intercompany Note to expire and to declare a dividend. The complaint further alleges that the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the board’s alleged breach of fiduciary duties. The plaintiff sought, among other things, a ruling that the CCOH board, the intercompany note committee, and the Sponsor Defendants breached their fiduciary duties and that the Sponsor Defendants aided and abetted the board of directors' breach of fiduciary duty; and an award of damages, together with pre- and post-judgment interests, to the putative class of minority shareholders.

On December 16, 2018, the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and Norfolk County Retirement System entered into the CCOH Separation Settlement to settle of all claims, objections, and other causes of action that have been or could be asserted by or on behalf of CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., and/or Norfolk County Retirement System by and among the Debtors, CCOH, GAMCO Asset Management, Inc., certain individual defendants in the GAMCO Asset Management, Inc. action and/or the Norfolk County Retirement System action, and the private equity sponsor defendants in such actions. The CCOH Separation Settlement provides for the consensual separation of the Debtors and CCOH, including approximately $149.0 million of recovery to CCOH on account of its claim against iHeartCommunications in the Chapter 11 Cases, a $200 million unsecured revolving line of credit from certain of the Debtors to CCOH for a period of up to three years, the transfer of certain of the Debtors’ intellectual property to CCOH, the waiver by the Debtors of the setoff for the value of the transferred intellectual property, mutual releases, the termination of the cash sweep under the existing Corporate Services Agreement, the termination of any agreements or licenses requiring royalty payments from CCOH to the Debtors for trademarks or other intellectual property, the waiver of any post-petition amounts owed by CCOH relating to such trademarks or other intellectual property, and the execution of a new transition services agreement and other separation documents. The CCOH Separation Settlement was approved by the Bankruptcy Court and the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas on January 22, 2019.

~~China Investigation~~

Several employees of Clear Media Limited, an indirect, non-wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company whose ordinary shares are listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, are subject to an ongoing police investigation in China for misappropriation of funds. We are not aware of any litigation, claim or assessment pending against us in relation to this investigation. Based on information known to date, we believe any contingent liabilities arising from potential misconduct that has been or may be identified by the investigation in China are not material to our consolidated financial statements. The effect of the misappropriation of funds is reflected in these financial statements in the appropriate periods.

We advised both the SEC and the DOJ of the investigation at Clear Media Limited and we are cooperating to provide information in response to inquiries from the agencies. The Clear Media Limited investigation could implicate the books and records, internal controls and anti-bribery provisions of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, which statute and regulations provide for potential monetary penalties as well as criminal and civil sanctions. It is possible that monetary penalties and other sanctions could be assessed on the Company in connection with this matter. The nature and amount of any monetary penalty or other sanctions cannot reasonably be estimated at this time and could be qualitatively or quantitatively material to the Company.

~~Italy Investigation~~

During the three months ended June 30, 2018, we identified misstatements associated with VAT obligations in our business in Italy, which resulted in an understatement of our VAT obligation. These misstatements resulted in an understatement of other long-term liabilities of $16.9 million as of December 31, 2017. The effect of these misstatements is reflected in the historical financial statements in the appropriate periods. Upon identification of these misstatements, we undertook certain procedures, including a forensic investigation, which is ongoing. In addition, we voluntarily disclosed the matter and preliminary findings to the Italian tax authorities in order to commence a discussion on the appropriate calculation of the VAT position. The current expectation is that we may have to repay to the Italian tax authority a substantial portion of the VAT previously applied as a credit in relation to the transactions under investigation, amounting to approximately $17 million, including estimated possible penalties and interest. We made a payment of $8.6 million during the fourth quarter of 2018 and expect to pay the remainder during the last half of 2019. The ultimate amount to be paid may differ from our estimates, and such differences may be material.
