FAQ

What insider transaction did Liberty Live report in this LYV Form 4?

Liberty Live reported an exchange of its existing 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures due 2053 for a new series with the same coupon and principal. The transaction restructures debenture terms linked to Live Nation’s common stock but keeps the overall principal amount unchanged at $1,116,315,000.

How are Liberty Live’s LYV-linked debentures exchangeable into Live Nation stock?

Each $1,000 original principal amount of both the old and new debentures is exchangeable for the cash value of 9.5320 shares of Live Nation common stock. Any exchange or put is settled in cash by Liberty Live, so holders receive cash based on the underlying share value.

What changed between the old and new Liberty Live exchangeable debentures tied to LYV?

The principal terms now include a later put date and updated exchange conditions. Holders of the old debentures could put them on September 30, 2028, while holders of the new debentures may put them on September 30, 2032, with revised redemption and fundamental change mechanics but the same 2.375% coupon.

Do Liberty Live’s new exchangeable debentures affect Live Nation share issuance?

The debentures reference Live Nation common stock but are settled in cash by Liberty Live. Each $1,000 principal amount corresponds to the cash value of 9.5320 shares, meaning investors in the debentures receive cash, not Live Nation shares, when they exercise exchange or put rights.

When do Liberty Live’s LYV-linked exchangeable debentures mature?

Both the old and new 2.375% Exchangeable Senior Debentures are scheduled to expire on September 30, 2053. Holders have specified windows to exchange or put the debentures before maturity, including a main put date in 2032 for the new series under defined conditions.

Under what conditions can holders exchange Liberty Live’s new LYV-linked debentures?

Holders may exchange the new debentures during specified periods if conditions are met, such as Live Nation’s stock value exceeding 130% of the adjusted principal, the debenture trading below 98% of the stock’s value, certain fundamental changes, redemptions, or specified dividend-related triggers before September 30, 2032.
