On June 14, 2019, OUTFRONT Media Inc. (the “Company”), along with its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Outfront Media Capital LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Finance LLC”), and Outfront Media Capital Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with Finance LLC, the “Issuers”), and the other guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”), entered into an indenture (the “Indenture”) with Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (the “Trustee”), relating to the issuance by the Issuers of $650.0 million aggregate principal amount of 5.000% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold in a private transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
The Notes bear an interest rate of 5.000% per annum and interest on the Notes will be payable on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on February 15, 2020. The Notes will mature on August 15, 2027. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and the Guarantors.
The terms of the Notes are governed by the Indenture. The Indenture contains customary covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ abilities to, among other things, (i) incur additional indebtedness, guarantee indebtedness or issue disqualified stock or, in the case of such subsidiaries, preferred stock, (ii) pay dividends on, repurchase or make distributions in respect of the Company’s or Finance LLC’s capital stock or make other restricted payments, (iii) make certain investments or acquisitions, (iv) sell, transfer or otherwise convey certain assets, (v) create liens, (vi) enter into sale/lease-back transactions, (vii) enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends or make other intercompany transfers, (viii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ assets, (ix) enter into transactions with affiliates, (x) prepay certain kinds of indebtedness, and (xi) issue or sell stock of the Company’s subsidiaries. These covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications. Further, certain of these covenants will cease to apply after the date on which the Notes receive investment grade ratings from both Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. and S&P Global Ratings, provided no default or event of default under the Indenture exists at that time. Such terminated covenants will be reinstated if the Notes lose their investment grade ratings at any time thereafter.
The Issuers may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time, or from time to time, on or after August 15, 2022 at redemption prices listed in the Indenture. In addition, prior to August 15, 2022, the Issuers may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes in an amount not to exceed the net cash proceeds from certain equity offerings, at a redemption price of 105% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption; provided that at least 50% of the aggregate amount of the Notes remains outstanding after such redemption. The Issuers may also redeem all or some of the Notes at any time, or from time to time, prior to August 15, 2022 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.
Upon the occurrence of a “change of control repurchase event,” as defined in the Indenture, the Company is required to offer to repurchase the Notes at 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.
The Indenture contains customary events of default, including failure to make required payments, failure to comply with certain agreements or covenants, failure to pay or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, failure to pay certain judgments, certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency, and certain failures or repudiations of guarantees of the Notes. An event of default under the Indenture will allow either the Trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then-outstanding Notes to accelerate, or in certain cases, will automatically cause the acceleration of, the amounts due under the Notes.
The foregoing descriptions of the Indenture and the Notes do not purport to be complete, and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture (which includes the form of the Notes), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
