Liberty Media Corporation ("Liberty”) (Nasdaq: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, BATRA, BATRK, FWONA, FWONK) announced today that it has closed its previously announced private offering of $800 million aggregate original principal amount of its 0.50% exchangeable senior debentures due 2050 (the "Debentures”).

Upon an exchange of Debentures, Liberty, at its option, may deliver shares of Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. ("Live Nation”) common stock or the value thereof in cash (or any combination of shares of Live Nation common stock and cash). Initially, 11.0983 shares of Live Nation common stock are attributable to each $1,000 principal amount of Debentures, representing an initial exchange price of approximately $90.10 for each share of Live Nation common stock. A total of approximately 8,878,640 shares of Live Nation common stock are attributable to the Debentures. Interest will be payable quarterly on March 1, June 1, September 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing March 1, 2021. The Debentures may be redeemed by Liberty, in whole or in part, on or after September 1, 2024. Holders of the Debentures also have the right to require Liberty to purchase their Debentures on September 1, 2024. The redemption and purchase price will generally equal 100% of the adjusted principal amount of the Debentures plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, plus any final period distribution.

Liberty expects to use the net proceeds of the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the future repayment of indebtedness, including Liberty’s 2.25% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2048, and the settlement of the call spread between the Formula One Group and the Liberty SiriusXM Group related to 34.8 million shares of Liberty’s Live Nation common stock.

The Debentures have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act”), or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Debentures were offered by means of an offering memorandum solely to "Qualified Institutional Buyers” pursuant to, and as that term is defined in, Rule 144A of the Securities Act.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Debentures nor shall there be any sale of Debentures in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such state.
