Item 1.01   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 13, 2020, Entravision Digital Holdings, LLC (the “Acquiror”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Entravision Communications Corporation (the “Company”), acquired a 51% equity interest in RedMas Ventures, S.L. (the “Target”), a company engaged in the sale and marketing of digital advertising, pursuant to a Share Purchase Agreement entered into on the same date (the “Acquisition Agreement”), among the Acquiror and the selling shareholders of the Target (the “Sellers”).

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Acquisition Agreement, the Acquiror acquired (the “Acquisition”) 51% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Target for a total purchase price of $29 million in cash. The Acquisition Agreement also contains representations, warranties, covenants, and indemnities of the parties thereto.

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company, the Acquiror and the Sellers entered into a Put and Call Option Agreement (the “Put and Call Agreement”). Subject to the terms of the Put and Call Agreement, the Sellers have the right (the “Put Option”) to cause the Acquiror to purchase all (but not less than all) of the remaining 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Target at a purchase price to be based on a pre-determined multiple of six times the Target’s 12-month EBITDA in the preceding calendar year. The Sellers may exercise the Put Option upon the occurrence of certain events starting in April 2022.

Additionally, subject to the terms of the Put and Call Agreement, the Acquiror has the right (the “Call Option”), in calendar year 2024, to purchase all (but not less than all) of the remaining 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Target at a purchase price to be based on a pre-determined multiple of six times the Target’s 12-month EBITDA in calendar year 2023.

The foregoing summaries of the Acquisition Agreement and the Put and Call Agreement do not purport to be complete and are 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.
