About the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations

The type and amount of securities to be issued at the closing of the Exchange Offers will depend on the participation levels in the Exchange Offers and Term Loan Exchange (collectively, the “Offers”) as described below.

The Issuers will exchange any Existing Notes pursuant to the Exchange Offers that have been validly tendered at or prior to the Expiration Time and that are accepted for exchange, subject to all conditions to the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations having been either satisfied or waived by the Issuers, as soon as practicable after the Expiration Time (the “Settlement Date”). The Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations are conditioned upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Offering Memorandum. Either the Comprehensive Exchange Offers will be consummated or the Alternative Exchange Offers will be consummated, but not both.

Eligible Holders of the Existing Notes who wish to participate in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations must tender all their Existing Notes across each series in the Comprehensive Exchange Offers (and deliver consents in the related Comprehensive Consent Solicitations) and the Alternative Exchange Offers (and deliver consents in the related Alternative Consent Solicitations), and shall not be permitted to tender in only one or a subset of the foregoing. Eligible Holders of the Existing Notes who validly tender their Existing Notes in the Exchange Offers will be deemed to have tendered their Existing Notes in both the Comprehensive Exchange Offers and the Alternative Exchange Offers. In addition, such Eligible Holders will be deemed to have delivered consents for each Comprehensive Proposed Amendment and Alternative Proposed Amendment applicable to their Existing Notes.

There are no withdrawal or revocation rights in connection with any of the Exchange Offers. As a result, any tenders of Existing Notes and delivery of the related Consents will be final and irrevocable. Each Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation is a separate offer and/or solicitation, and each may be individually amended, extended, terminated or withdrawn, subject to certain conditions and applicable law, at any time in the Issuers’ sole discretion, and without amending, extending, terminating or withdrawing any other Exchange Offer or Consent Solicitation; provided that the consummation of each Comprehensive Exchange Offer is conditioned upon consummation of all of the Comprehensive Exchange Offers and the applicable Term Loan Exchange, and the consummation of each Alternative Exchange Offer is conditioned upon consummation of all of the Alternative Exchange Offers and the applicable Term Loan Exchange. The Issuers reserve the right throughout the Exchange Offers to amend any of the terms of any Exchange Offers and/or Consent Solicitations, New Comprehensive Notes, and/or the New Alternative Notes, in their sole discretion without instituting withdrawal or revocation rights, regardless of the nature thereof. Any such amendment may be significant.

None of the Issuers, their advisors, the trustee of the Existing Notes, the trustee with respect to the New Comprehensive Notes or New Alternative Notes, as applicable, the Exchange Agent and Information Agent (each as defined below) or any affiliate of any of them, makes any recommendation as to whether Eligible Holders of Existing Notes should participate in the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations , and no one has been authorized by any of them to make such a recommendation. Eligible Holders of Existing Notes should read carefully the Offering Memorandum before making a decision to participate in the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations. In addition, Eligible Holders of the Existing Notes must make their own decisions as to whether to tender their Existing Notes in the Exchange Offers and provide the consent in the related Consent Solicitation.

The Exchange Offers are being made, and the New Comprehensive Notes and New Alternative Notes are being offered and issued only to holders of Existing Notes that are either (i) persons who are reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional buyers” as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act or (ii) persons other than “U.S. persons” as defined in Regulation S who agree to purchase any New Notes outside of the United States and who are otherwise in compliance with the requirements of Regulation S. The Issuers are not making the Exchange Offers in any jurisdiction where the inclusion of any person in such jurisdiction would require the Issuers or any subsidiary of the Issuers to comply with registration requirements or other similar requirements under any securities laws of such jurisdiction. The holders of Existing Notes who have certified to us that they are eligible to participate in the Exchange Offers pursuant to at least one of the foregoing conditions are referred to as “Eligible Holders.”

Only Eligible Holders of Existing Notes may receive a copy of the Offering Memorandum and participate in the Exchange Offers and the Consent Solicitations. The Exchange and Information Agent is Kroll Issuer Services (US) (“Kroll” or the “Exchange Agent” and the “Information Agent”). Detailed instructions regarding how Eligible Holders of Existing Notes can tender Existing Notes and deliver consents with respect to the Consent Solicitations are set forth in the Offering Memorandum. Questions concerning the Exchange Offers or Consent Solicitations or requests for additional copies of the Offering Memorandum or other related documents may be directed to Kroll at iheart@is.kroll.com.

About the Term Loan Exchange and Term Loan Consent Solicitation

The Term Loan Exchange and Term Loan Consent Solicitation will be conducted pursuant to a separate exchange offer open to the lenders under the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Existing Lenders”). Any Existing Lender that participates in the Term Loan Exchange (a “Participating Lender”) will agree to exchange all of its Existing Term Loans in the Term Loan Exchange. If the Comprehensive Threshold is achieved, each Participating Lender will receive (i) a new class of first lien term loans issued by Communications in a principal amount up to 94.0% of its Existing Term Loans and (ii) cash in an amount up to 5.0% of its Existing Term Loans. If the Comprehensive Threshold is not achieved, each Participating Lender will receive (i) a new class of first lien term loans issued by Entertainment I in a principal amount up to 93.5% of its Existing Term Loans, (ii) a new class of first lien term loans issued by Communications in a principal amount up to 0.5% of its Existing Term Loans and (iii) cash in an amount up to 5.0% of its Existing Term Loans. The Term Loan Consent Solicitation will amend the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement to, among other things, permit the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Support Agreement and to remove substantially all affirmative and negative covenants and mandatory prepayments and certain events of default under the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement.
