Item 8.01 Other Events.
Affinity Group, Inc. (the “Company”) is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Affinity Group Holding, Inc. (“AGHI”). AGHI is a holding company and conducts its operations through us and our subsidiaries. AGHI today paid $3.4 million in cash interest payable to institutional holders holding an aggregate of $61.8 million of our 10-7/8% senior notes due 2012 (the “AGHI Notes”) within the “grace” period consented to by such holders for payment of the interest that was due on the AGHI Notes on August 15, 2010. Previously, AGHI also paid the indenture trustee interest in the amount of $15,000 for the holders of the AGHI Notes that had not been identified to AGHI. The remaining holders of the AGHI Notes extended the payment date for the interest due on August 15, 2010 to February 15, 2011. AGHI’s parent, AGI Intermediate Holdco, LLC, made capital contributions to AGHI in the amount needed to pay such cash interest and has advised AGHI that it has made arrangements to fund necessary cash interest on the next interest payment date under the AGHI Notes, February 15, 2011.
