Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously disclosed, on February 1, 2019, Sirius XM Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Sirius XM”), completed the acquisition of Pandora Media, LLC (the successor to Pandora Media, Inc.) (“Pandora”) pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization, dated as of September 23, 2018, among Sirius XM, Pandora, White Oaks Acquisition Corp., Sirius XM Radio Inc. (“Sirius XM Radio”), Billboard Holding Company, Inc. and Billboard Acquisition Sub, Inc. As a result of the acquisition, Pandora is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Sirius XM.

On February 1, 2019, Pandora and certain of its subsidiaries joined Sirius XM Radio’s existing $1.75 billion senior secured revolving credit facility with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent, and the other agents and lenders party thereto (the “Credit Facility”) as guarantors. Obligations under the Credit Facility are secured by a lien on substantially all of Sirius XM Radio’s assets and the assets of its material domestic subsidiaries, including Pandora. Sirius XM Radio may use borrowings under the Credit Facility for working capital and other general corporate purposes, including share repurchases, dividends and the financing of acquisitions.

The Credit Facility contains incremental facilities and related debt and lien baskets, which allow Sirius XM Radio to increase or incur new commitments under the revolving facility and/or incur new term loans or other forms of indebtedness, subject to the terms of the Credit Facility.

 

For additional information regarding the Credit Facility, see Sirius XM’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on January 30, 2019.

 

Sirius XM intends to cause Pandora and its subsidiaries that joined the Credit Facility to provide guarantees of Sirius XM Radio’s outstanding senior notes.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated by reference herein.
