Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

On March 10, 2023, Liberty Media Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Indenture (the “Indenture”) with U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee, in connection with the sale of $575,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.75% Senior Convertible Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”), including notes with an aggregate principal amount of $75,000,000 issued pursuant to the exercise of an option granted to the Initial Purchasers (as defined below), which was exercised in full, to J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and Mizuho Securities USA LLC, as representatives of the initial purchasers (the “Initial Purchasers”) pursuant to that certain purchase agreement dated March 7, 2023.

 

The Notes were sold to the Initial Purchasers in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Notes were resold to qualified institutional buyers as defined in, and in reliance on, Rule 144A of the Securities Act. The Notes and any common stock issuable upon their conversion may be offered and resold only in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws. To the extent that any shares of common stock are issued upon conversion of the Notes, they will be issued in transactions anticipated to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) thereof, because no commission or other remuneration is expected to be paid in connection with conversion of the Notes and any resulting issuance of shares of the common stock.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, holders of the Notes may convert their Notes, in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at their option, under the following circumstances: (i) during any calendar quarter after the calendar quarter ending June 30, 2023 (and only during such calendar quarter), if the last reported sale price of the Company's Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is equal to or more than 130% of the conversion price of the Notes on the last day of such preceding calendar quarter; (ii) during the five business-day period after any five consecutive trading-day period, which the Company refers to as the measurement period, in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Notes for each trading day of that measurement period was less than 98% of the product of the last reported sale price of the Company's Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock and the applicable conversion rate for the Notes on each such trading day; (iii) if the Company calls the Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the redemption date, but only with respect to the Notes called (or deemed called) for redemption; or (iv) upon the occurrence of specified corporate events described in the Indenture. In addition, holders may convert their Notes at their option at any time on or after December 15, 2027 and ending on the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the stated maturity date for the Notes, without regard to the foregoing circumstances.

 

The Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock at an initial conversion rate of 25.9000 shares of the Company’s Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $38.61 per share of Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock. The conversion rate is subject to adjustment in certain events, but will not be adjusted for accrued interest, including any additional interest. Upon a conversion of the Notes, the Company may elect to pay or deliver, as the case may be, cash, shares of Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock or a combination of cash and shares of Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock.

 

If the Company undergoes a make-whole fundamental change or delivers a notice of redemption, and a holder elects to convert its Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change or redemption, the Company will increase the applicable conversion rate, under certain circumstances, by a number of additional shares of Series A Liberty SiriusXM common stock as described in the Indenture.
