Beasley Media Group has opened an Exchange Offer with its debt holders to exchange their outstanding 8.625% Senior Secured Notes due in 2026 into newly issued 9.200% Senior Secured Notes due August 1, 2028 at an exchange ratio of 95.0% of the aggregate principal amount (or $950 per $1,000 of principal amount) of the Existing Notes tendered for exchange.
Beasley says that a holder of approximately 73% of the Existing Notes has entered into a transaction support agreement to support the Exchange Offer, subject to certain customary conditions, including a minimum participation condition (the “TSA Minimum Participation Condition”) requiring 100% of Existing Noteholders to participate in the Exchange Offer or Tender Offer. The issuer of the notes will purchase up to $68.0 million of aggregate principal amount of the Existing Notes to holders who elect to exchange all of their Existing Notes in the Exchange Offer at a purchase price of 62.5% (or $625 per $1,000 of principal amount), plus accrued and unpaid interest. If more than $68.0 million principal amount of Existing Notes elect to receive the Tender Offer Consideration in the Tender Offer, $68.0 million principal amount of Existing Notes will be repaid in cash consideration o
