Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 13, 2024, Entravision Digital Holdings, LLC (the “Seller”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Entravision Communications Corporation (the “Company”), entered into an agreement to sell its equity interests in MediaDonuts Pte. Ltd. ("MediaDonuts") and Redmas Ventures S.L. ("Redmas", and collectively with MediaDonuts, the "Target Companies") to IMS Internet Media Services, Inc. ("IMS"), pursuant to an Equity Purchase Agreement entered into on the same date (the “Purchase Agreement”) among the Seller, the Company and IMS. The Target Companies and their subsidiaries collectively do business as part of Entravision Global Partners, the Company's digital commercial partnerships business, in certain countries in Asia and Latin America. IMS is an affiliate of Aleph Group, a global digital advertising company.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Purchase Agreement, IMS agreed to purchase (the “Purchase”) 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of Target Companies for a total purchase price of approximately $16.4 million in cash, subject to adjustments for working capital and other items. The Purchase Agreement also contains representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities of the parties thereto.

The Purchase is expected to close on or around June 28, 2024 ("Closing"), following the satisfaction of, and subject to, customary closing conditions.

On June 13, 2024, the Seller and the Company also entered into an Assignment, Assumption and Release Agreement (the "Assignment") with IMS and the parties who sold MediaDonuts to the Seller on July 1, 2021 (the "MediaDonuts Founders"). Pursuant to the Assignment, the parties thereto agreed, at Closing, for the Seller and the Company to assign to IMS that Earn-Out Agreement dated July 1, 2021 between the Seller, the Company and the MediaDonuts Founders (the "Earn-Out Agreement").

Subject to the terms of the Earn-Out Agreement, the MediaDonuts Founders are owed an amount in April 2025 based on a pre-determined multiple of EBITDA for each of calendar years 2023 and 2024. Pursuant to the Assignment, and concurrent with Closing, (i) the Seller agreed to pay to the MediaDonuts Founders an aggregate amount of $6.5 million, and (ii) upon receipt of the payment described in (i), the MediaDonuts Founders agreed that the Seller and the Company shall have no further obligations under the Earn-Out Agreement. The Assignment terminates in the event the Purchase Agreement terminates prior to Closing.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement and the Assignment does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of such agreements, copies of which are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
