During 2019, the Company and its finance subsidiary, Audacy Capital Corp., issued $425.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured second-lien notes due May 1, 2027 (the "Initial 2027 Notes"). Interest on the Initial 2027 Notes accrues at the rate of 6.500% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year. The Initial 2027 Notes are governed by an indenture dated as of April 30, 2019 (the "Base Indenture"), as supplemented by a first supplemental indenture dated December 13, 2019 (the "First Supplemental Indenture"), (collectively, the "Indenture").

A portion of the Initial 2027 Notes was issued at premium. As of any reporting period, the unamortized premium on the Initial 2027 Notes is reflected on the balance sheet as an addition to the Initial 2027 Notes.

During the fourth quarter of 2021, Audacy Capital Corp., issued $45.0 million of additional 6.500% senior secured second-lien notes due 2027 (the "Additional 2027 Notes"). The Additional 2027 Notes were issued as additional notes under the Indenture. The Additional 2027 Notes are treated as a single series with the Initial 2027 Notes (collectively, the "2027 Notes") and have substantially the same terms as the Initial 2027 Notes. The Additional 2027 Notes were issued at a price of 100.750% of their principal amount.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company repurchased $10.0 million of its 2027 Notes through open market purchases. This repurchase activity generated a gain on retirement of the 2027 Notes in the amount of

The Credit Facility has usual and customary covenants including, but not limited to, a net first lien leverage ratio, restricted payments and the incurrence of additional debt. Specifically, the Credit Facility requires the Company to comply with a certain financial covenant which is a defined term within the agreement, including a maximum Consolidated Net First-Lien Leverage Ratio that cannot exceed 4.0 times at September 30, 2022. In certain circumstances, if the Company consummates additional acquisition activity permitted under the terms of the Credit Facility, the Consolidated Net First-Lien Leverage Ratio will be increased to 4.5 times for a one year period following the consummation of such permitted acquisition. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s Consolidated Net First Lien Leverage Ratio was 3.8 times.

Failure to comply with the Company’s financial covenant or other terms of its Credit Facility and any subsequent failure to negotiate and obtain any required relief from its lenders could result in a default under the Company’s Credit Facility. Any event of default could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business and financial condition. The acceleration of the Company’s debt repayment could have a material adverse effect on its business. The Company may seek from time to time to amend its Credit Facility or obtain other funding or additional funding, which may result in higher interest rates.

As of September 30, 2022, the Company is in compliance with the financial covenant and all other terms of the Credit Facility in all material respects. The Company’s ability to maintain compliance with its covenant is highly dependent on its results of operations. The cash available from the Revolver is dependent on the Company’s Consolidated Net First-Lien Leverage Ratio at the time of such borrowing. Refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation And Significant Policies - Liquidity and Capital Resources, for additional information.

During the first quarter of 2021, the Company and its finance subsidiary, Audacy Capital Corp., issued $540.0 million in aggregate principal amount of senior secured second-lien notes due March 31, 2029 (the "2029 Notes"). Interest on the 2029 Notes accrues at the rate of 6.750% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 31 and September 30 of each year.

The Company used net proceeds of the offering, along with cash on hand, to: (i) repay $77.0 million of existing indebtedness under the Term B-2 Loan; (ii) repay $40.0 million of drawings under the Revolver; and (iii) fully redeem all of its $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.250% senior notes due 2024 (the "Senior Notes") and to pay fees and expenses in connection with the redemption.

In connection with this activity, during the first quarter of 2021, the Company: (i) recorded $6.6 million of new debt issuance costs attributable to the 2029 Notes; and (ii) $0.4 million of debt issuance costs attributable to the Revolver which will be amortized over the remaining term of the Revolver on a straight line basis. The Company also incurred $0.5 million of costs which were classified within refinancing expenses.

On July 20, 2020, Audacy Capital Corp. entered into an amendment ("Amendment No. 5") to the Credit Agreement dated October 17, 2016 (as previously amended, the "Existing Credit Agreement" and, as amended by Amendment No. 5, the "Credit Agreement"), with the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent. Amendment No. 5, among other things:

(a) amended the Company's financial covenants under the Credit Agreement by: (i) suspending the testing of the Consolidated Net First Lien Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) through the Test Period (as defined in the Credit Agreement) ending December 31, 2020; (ii) adding a new minimum liquidity covenant of $75.0 million until December 31, 2021, or such earlier date as the Company may elect (the "Covenant Relief Period"); and (iii) imposing certain restrictions during the Covenant Relief Period, including among other things, certain limitations on incurring additional indebtedness and liens, making restricted payments or investments, redeeming notes and entering into certain sale and lease-back transactions;

(b) increased the interest rate and/or fees under the Credit Agreement during the Covenant Relief Period applicable to: (i) 2024 Revolving Credit Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to (x) in the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a customary Eurodollar rate formula plus a margin of 2.50% per annum, and (y) in the case of Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), a customary base rate formula plus a margin of 1.50% per annum, and (ii) Letter of Credit (as defined in the Credit Agreement) fees to 2.50% times the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under any such Letter of Credit; and

(c) modified the definition of Consolidated EBITDA by setting fixed amounts for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2020, September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2020, for purposes of testing compliance with the Consolidated Net First Lien Leverage Ratio financial covenant during the Covenant Relief Period, which fixed amounts correspond to the Borrower's Consolidated EBITDA as reported under the Existing Credit Agreement for the Test Period ended March 31, 2020, for the fiscal quarters ending June 30, 2019, September 30, 2019, and December 31, 2019, respectively.

On March 5, 2021, Audacy Capital Corp. entered into an amendment ("Amendment No. 6") to the Credit Agreement dated October 17, 2016 (as previously amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as amended by Amendment No. 6, the “Credit Agreement”), with the guarantors party thereto, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent.

Under the Existing Credit Agreement, during the Covenant Relief Period the Company was subject to a $75.0 million limitation on investments in joint ventures, Affiliates, Unrestricted Subsidiaries and Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries (each as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) (the “Covenant Relief Period Investment Limitation”). Amendment No. 6, among other things, excludes from the Covenant Relief Period Investment Limitation any investments made in connection with a permitted receivables financing facility. The Covenant Relief Period ended in the fourth quarter of 2021.

On July 15, 2021, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a $75.0 million Receivables Facility to provide additional liquidity, to reduce the Company's cost of funds and to repay outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility.

The documentation for the Receivables Facility includes (i) a Receivables Purchase Agreement entered into by and among Audacy Operations, Audacy Receivables as seller, the Investors, and DZ BANK, as agent; (ii) a Sale and Contribution Agreement, by and among Audacy Operations, Audacy NY, and Audacy Receivables; and (iii) a Purchase and Sale Agreement and together with the Receivables Purchase Agreement and the Sale and Contribution Agreement, the “Agreements”) by and among certain wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company (together with Audacy NY, the “Originators”), Audacy Operations and Audacy NY.

Pursuant to the Purchase and Sale Agreement, the Originators (other than Audacy NY) have sold, and will continue to sell on an ongoing basis, their accounts receivable, together with customary related security and interests in the proceeds thereof, to Audacy NY. Pursuant to the Sale and Contribution Agreement, Audacy NY has sold and contributed, and will continue to sell and contribute on an ongoing basis, its accounts receivable, together with customary related security and interests in the proceeds thereof, to Audacy Receivables. Pursuant to the Receivables Purchase Agreement, Audacy Receivables has sold and will continue to sell on an ongoing basis such accounts receivable, together with customary related security and interests in the proceeds thereof, to the Investors in exchange for cash investments.

Yield is payable to Investors under the Receivables Purchase Agreement at a variable rate based on either the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") or commercial paper rates plus a margin. Collections on the accounts receivable: (x) will be used to either: (i) satisfy the obligations of Audacy Receivables under the Receivables Facility; or (ii) purchase additional accounts receivable from the Originators; or (y) may be distributed to Audacy NY, the sole member of Audacy Receivables. Audacy Operations acts as the servicer under the Agreements.

The Agreements contain representations, warranties and covenants that are customary for bankruptcy-remote securitization transactions, including covenants requiring Audacy Receivables to be treated at all times as an entity separate from the Originators, Audacy Operations, the Company or any of its other affiliates and that transactions entered into between Audacy Receivables and any of its affiliates shall be on arm’s-length terms. The Receivables Purchase Agreement also contains customary default and termination provisions which provide for acceleration of amounts owed under the Receivables Purchase Agreement upon the occurrence of certain specified events with respect to Audacy Receivables, Audacy Operations, the Originators, or the Company, including, but not limited to: (i) Audacy Receivables’ failure to pay yield and other amounts due;

(ii) certain insolvency events; (iii) certain judgments entered against the parties; (iv) certain liens filed with respect to assets; and (v) breach of certain financial covenants and ratios.

The Company has agreed to guarantee the performance obligations of Audacy Operations and the Originators under the Receivables Facility documents. The Company has not agreed to guarantee any obligations of Audacy Receivables or the collection of any of the receivables and will not be responsible for any obligations to the extent the failure to perform such obligations by Audacy Operations or any Originator results from receivables being uncollectible on account of the insolvency, bankruptcy or lack of creditworthiness or other financial inability to pay of the related obligor.

In general, the proceeds from the sale of the accounts receivable are used by the SPV to pay the purchase price for accounts receivable it acquires from Audacy NY and may be used to fund capital expenditures, repay borrowings on the Credit Facility, satisfy maturing debt obligations, as well as fund working capital needs and other approved uses.

Although the SPV is a wholly owned consolidated subsidiary of Audacy NY, the SPV is legally separate from Audacy NY. The assets of the SPV (including the accounts receivable) are not available to creditors of Audacy NY, Audacy Operations or the Company, and the accounts receivable are not legally assets of Audacy NY, Audacy Operations or the Company. The Receivables Facility is accounted for as a secured financing.

The Receivables Facility has usual and customary covenants including, but not limited to, a net first lien leverage ratio, a required minimum tangible net worth, and a minimum liquidity requirement (the "financial covenants"). Specifically, the Receivables Facility requires the Company to comply with a certain financial covenant which is a defined term within the agreement, including a maximum Consolidated Net First-Lien Leverage Ratio that cannot exceed 4.0 times at September 30, 2022. As of September 30, 2022, the Company’s Consolidated Net First Lien Leverage Ratio was 3.8 times. The Receivables Facility also requires the Company to maintain a minimum tangible net worth, as defined within the agreement, of at least $300.0 million. Additionally, the Receivables Facility requires the Company to maintain liquidity of $75.0 million. As of September 30, 2022, the Company was compliant with the financial covenants.

The Receivables Facility will expire on July 15, 2024, unless earlier terminated or subsequently extended pursuant to the terms of the Receivables Purchase Agreement. The pledged receivables and the corresponding debt are included in Accounts receivable, net and Long-term debt, net of current portion, respectively, on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At September 30, 2022, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $75.0 million under the Receivables Facility. Refer to Note 1, Basis of Presentation And Significant Policies - Liquidity and Capital Resources, for additional information.

Simultaneously with entering into a business combination and assuming the Credit Facility on November 17, 2017, the Company also assumed the 7.250% unsecured senior notes (the “Senior Notes”) that were subsequently modified and were set to mature on November 1, 2024 in the amount of $400.0 million. The Senior Notes were originally issued by CBS Radio Inc. (now Audacy Capital Corp.) on October 17, 2016.

In connection with the redemption of the Senior Notes during the first quarter of 2021, the Company wrote off the following amounts to gain/loss on extinguishment of debt: (i) $14.5 million in prepayment premiums for the early retirement of the Senior Notes; (ii) $8.7 million of unamortized premium attributable to the Senior Notes; (iii) $1.0 million of unamortized debt issuance costs attributable to the Senior Notes; and (iv) $1.3 million of unamortized debt issuance costs attributable to the Term B-2 Loan.
