Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On June 22, 2015, Media General, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 6 to its Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 6”), with its subsidiaries MGOC, Inc. and LIN Television Corporation (together, the “Borrowers”), Royal Bank of Canada (“RBC”), as Administrative Agent, and the other lenders and parties thereto. Pursuant to Amendment No. 6, the Borrowers have re-priced the existing aggregate $1.67 billion term B loans outstanding under their senior secured credit facility through a refinancing of the term B loans with a new tranche of otherwise identical term B loans. The interest rate for the re-priced term B loans is based on, at the Borrowers’ option, adjusted LIBOR plus a margin of 3.00% or Base Rate plus a margin of 2.00 %. The maturity date for the term B loans remains July 31, 2020, and the quarterly amortization for the term B loans remains 0.25%, with the balance due at maturity. The expired 1% ‘soft call’ premium for re-pricing transactions within a 6 month period has been reestablished for a 12-month period commencing on the Amendment No. 6 effective date.

 

The description of Amendment No. 6 above does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment No. 6, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
