Business Wire
Liberty Media Corporation (“Liberty”) (NASDAQ: LSXMA, LSXMB,
LSXMK, FWONA, FWONK, LLYVA, LLYVK) today announced the payment of a
quarterly interest payment and an Excess Regular Additional
Distribution to the holders as of February 15, 2024 of its 2.75%
Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2049 (the “Debentures”). The
amount of the quarterly interest payment is $6.8750 per $1,000
original principal amount of Debentures, and the amount of the
Excess Regular Additional Distribution is $1.5419 per $1,000
original principal amount of Debentures. As of March 1, 2024, the
aggregate adjusted principal amount outstanding is approximately
$585 million, after giving effect to today’s quarterly interest
payment. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the
meaning given to them in the Indenture for the Debentures.
Under the Indenture for the Debentures, the original principal
amount of the Debentures is reduced in an amount equal to each
Extraordinary Additional Distribution that is made to holders of
the Debentures. Thereafter, the adjusted principal amount is
further reduced on each successive quarterly interest payment date
to the extent necessary to cause the quarterly interest payment to
represent the payment of an annualized yield of 2.75% of the
adjusted principal amount. This latter adjustment, to the extent it
is made by reason of a particular Extraordinary Additional
Distribution that results in a reduction to the principal amount of
the Debentures, takes effect on the second succeeding interest
payment date after the payment of that Extraordinary Additional
Distribution.
To date, Liberty has made one Extraordinary Additional
Distribution to holders of the Debentures. As previously announced,
on March 4, 2022, Liberty made an Extraordinary Additional
Distribution of $29.0057 per $1,000 original principal amount of
Debentures, which was attributable to the special cash dividend
paid on February 25, 2022 by Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (“SIRI”) to
holders of its common stock of record as of the close of business
on February 11, 2022.
Reductions to the principal amount of the Debentures do not
affect the amount of the quarterly interest payments received by
holders of the Debentures, which will continue to be a rate equal
to 2.75% per annum of the original principal amount of the
Debentures. Below is a detail of the amount of the quarterly
interest payment being made on the Debentures, its allocation
between payment of interest and repayment of principal and the
revised adjusted principal amount of the Debentures resulting from
such payment, per $1,000 original principal amount of the
Debentures:

Liberty is also making an Excess Regular Additional Distribution
to holders of the Debentures as of February 15, 2024 of $1.5419 per
Debenture, which is attributable to the regular quarterly dividend
paid by SIRI of $0.0266 per share on November 29, 2023. The payment
of the Excess Regular Additional Distribution will not result in a
reduction to the adjusted principal amount of the Debentures.
The quarterly interest payment and Excess Regular Additional
Distribution are expected to be made on March 1, 2024 to holders of
record of the Debentures as of February 15, 2024.
