REPURCHASE OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK

 

SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA – July 6, 2004 – Entravision Communications Corporation (NYSE: EVC) announced today that it has repurchased 2,542,006 shares of its Series A convertible preferred stock from TSG Capital Fund III, L.P. for $55 million, funded by a combination of additional borrowings under the company’s existing bank credit facility and available cash on hand. Under a revised share repurchase agreement with TSG Capital, subject to Entravision’s ability to raise financing on terms acceptable to it in its sole discretion, the company will repurchase the remaining 3,323,096 shares of Series A preferred stock from TSG Capital by June 30, 2005. The price of the repurchases will reflect a small premium to the liquidation value at the time of repurchase. The repurchases will remove the potential uncertainty resulting from the April 2006 put option associated with the Series A preferred stock.
