CAMARILLO, Calif. – (BUSINESS WIRE) – Salem Media Group, Inc. (Nasdaq: SALM) today announced the pricing of its previously announced offering of $255 million aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior secured notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) at an issue price of 100% of principal amount. Interest on the Notes will be payable semi-annually, in cash in arrears, on June 1^st and December 1^st of each year, commencing December 1, 2017. The Notes will mature on June 1, 2024, unless earlier redeemed or repurchased. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by all of Salem’s existing and certain future domestic restricted subsidiaries. The Notes will be secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all of Salem’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ assets (other than accounts receivable, inventory, deposit and securities accounts, certain real estate and related assets, which secure a new senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility to be entered into at the time of the closing of the Notes offering (the “ABL Facility”) on a first-priority basis, and certain excluded property) and by a second-priority lien on the ABL Facility priority collateral, and the ABL Facility will be secured by a second-priority lien on the Notes priority collateral. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on or about May 19, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions.

Together with borrowings under the ABL Facility, Salem intends to use the net proceeds of the Notes offering to repay its existing senior credit facilities, to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Notes offering and the ABL Facility and to pay accrued and unpaid interest on its existing term loan.

The Notes and the related guarantees are being offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to persons other than “U.S. persons” in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
