LBI Media, Inc. Announces Amendments To Private Exchange Offers and Solicitation of Consents and Extension of the Expiration Date of Private Exchange Offers and Solicitation of Consents

BURBANK, Calif., Oct. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- LBI Media, Inc. ("Media") announced today that it has amended certain terms of its previously announced private exchanges offers (the "Exchange Offers") and solicitation of consents (the "Exchange Offers Consents"), with respect to its 8½% senior subordinated notes due 2017 (the "Old Senior Subordinated Notes") and LBI Media Holdings, Inc.'s 11% senior discount notes due 2013 (the "Discount Notes", and together with the Old Senior Subordinated Notes, the "Old Notes") and extended the expiration date for the Exchange Offers and solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents to midnight, New York City time, on October 25, 2012 (the "Expiration Date").

The terms of the Exchange Offers were initially described in a confidential offering memorandum and consent solicitation statement, dated July 17, 2012 (the "Initial Offering Memorandum"). The Initial Offering Memorandum was supplemented by the Supplement to the Confidential Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement dated July 24, 2012 and the press releases issued by Media on August 14, 2012, August 30, 2012, September 21, 2012, September 28, 2012, and October 5, 2012 (the "Prior Supplements"). The amended terms of the Exchange Offers are more fully described in a Second Supplement to the Confidential Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation (the "Offering Memorandum Supplement"), dated October 12, 2012 (the Initial Offering Memorandum as supplemented by the Prior Supplements and the Offering Memorandum Supplement, the "Offering Memorandum"). Copies of the Offering Memorandum Supplement will be delivered to eligible holders of Old Senior Subordinated Notes and Discount Notes.

Media has revised the consideration being offered to holders of Old Senior Subordinated Notes and Discount Notes as described in the Offering Memorandum as set forth in the table below. Initially, only those holders that validly tendered their Old Notes prior to the previously scheduled early tender date of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 30, 2012, were entitled to receive the "Total Consideration" rather than the "Exchange Consideration". Media has now determined that all holders that validly tender and do not withdraw their Old Notes prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on October 25, 2012 (the "Early Tender Date"), will be entitled to receive the Total Consideration. Media also announced today the extension of the Withdrawal Deadline (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) for the Exchange Offers and solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents until midnight, New York City time, on October 25, 2012. In addition, holders may no longer deliver Exchange Offers Consents without tendering the related Old Notes or tender their Old Notes without delivering the related Exchange Offers Consents.

Media is revising the Exchange Offers to offer new 11% second priority secured springing subordinated notes due 2020 of Media (the "Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes") for Old Senior Subordinated Notes in lieu of its previously offered "Senior Priority Secured Notes", "Junior Priority Senior Secured Notes", and "2012 Senior Subordinated Notes." LBI Media Holdings, Inc. ("Holdings") and Media are revising the Exchange Offers to offer either Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes or new 11% senior notes due 2017 of Holdings (the "Holdings Notes" and, together with the Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes, the "New Notes") for any and all of the outstanding Discount Notes. If a majority of the principal amount of the Old Senior Subordinated Notes are validly tendered and accepted (and not withdrawn) in the Exchange Offers, the Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes will be subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior debt of Media or the applicable subsidiary guarantor (including Media's existing senior secured revolving credit agreement (the "Senior Secured Revolver") and Media's 9¼% senior secured notes due 2019 (the "First Priority Senior Secured Notes")) and will be senior in right of payment to the Old Senior Subordinated Notes and related subsidiary guarantees. If less than a majority of the principal amount of the Old Senior Subordinated Notes are validly tendered and accepted (and not withdrawn) in the Exchange Offers, the Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes will be equal in right of payment to all senior debt of Media or the applicable subsidiary guarantor and will be senior in right of payment to the Old Senior Subordinated Notes and related subsidiary guarantees.

As a result of the removal of the Senior Priority Secured Notes, Junior Priority Senior Secured Notes and 2012 Senior Subordinated Notes as consideration in the Exchange Offers, holders who previously tendered Old Senior Subordinated Notes for Senior Priority Secured Notes or Discount Notes for Junior Priority Senior Secured Notes will be deemed to have tendered for Second Priority Secured Springing Subordinated Notes. If holders who previously tendered Discount Notes prefer to receive Holdings Notes instead, such holders must withdraw the tender of their Discount Notes prior to the Withdrawal Deadline and properly re-tender and not withdraw their Discount Notes and elect to receive Holdings Notes prior to the Expiration Date.

Media is amending certain other terms of the Exchange Offers, as more fully described in the Offering Memorandum Supplement.

Media announced today additional preliminary results of the Exchange Offers. As of 2:00 p.m., New York City time, October 12, 2012, (i) approximately $10.4 million, or 4.6%, of the outstanding principal amount of Old Senior Subordinated Notes not held by affiliates of Media had been validly tendered and not withdrawn, and (ii) approximately $1.5 million, or 3.7%, of the outstanding principal amount of Discount Notes not held by affiliates of Holdings had been validly tendered and not withdrawn. In addition, certain holders of the Old Senior Subordinated Notes and the Discount Notes have already tendered, or have agreed to tender (subject to certain terms and conditions contained in agreements between the parties), approximately $57.9 million, or 25.4%, of the outstanding principal amount of the Old Senior Subordinated Notes not held by Media or Media's affiliates and approximately $24.0 million, or 58.5%, of the outstanding principal amount of the Discount Notes not held by Holdings or Holdings' affiliates, and have delivered, or have agreed to deliver (subject to certain terms and conditions contained in agreements between the parties), their Exchange Offers Consents to the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Old Senior Subordinated Notes or Discount Notes, as applicable.

Old Notes may still be tendered and Exchange Offers Consents may still be delivered until midnight, New York City time, on October 25, 2012 unless the Exchange Offers or solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents is terminated or withdrawn earlier, or unless the Exchange Offers or solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents is extended. In addition, Media has the right to amend, terminate or withdraw any of the Exchange Offers or solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents, at any time and for any reason, including if any of the conditions to the Exchange Offers or solicitation of Exchange Offers Consents are not satisfied.

Concurrently with the Exchange Offers, Media is also soliciting consents (the "Solicitation Consents") from holders of its First Priority Senior Secured Notes to certain amendments to the indenture governing the First Priority Senior Secured Notes (the "First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation"). The terms of the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation have also been amended to, among other things, reflect the new terms of the Exchange Offers and increase the interest rate payable on the First Priority Senior Secured Notes to 10.25% per annum (or 10.0% per annum, if at least a majority of the principal amount of the Old Senior Subordinated Notes are validly tendered and accepted (and not withdrawn) in the Exchange Offers). The amended terms of the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation are more fully set forth in a Supplement, dated October 12, 2012 (the "Consent Solicitation Supplement") to the Consent Solicitation Statement, dated July 17, 2012, copies of which have been delivered to eligible holders of First Priority Senior Secured Notes. If Media receives the requisite consents to the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation, Media will execute a supplemental indenture (the "Supplemental Indenture") on or soon after the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation Expiration Date (defined below), but not later than the date the Exchange Offers are consummated. The Supplemental Indenture, by its terms, will become effective only upon the consummation of the Exchange Offers.

The expiration date for the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation is extended to midnight, New York City time, on October 25, 2012 or such later time and date to which the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation is extended (the "First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation Expiration Date"). Solicitation Consents may be revoked at any time on or prior to the earlier of (i) the Acceptance Date and (ii) midnight, New York City time, on October 25, 2012. Media will pay an aggregate consent payment of $2.2 million (the "Consent Payment") to be paid on a pro rata basis (based on the principal amount of the First Priority Senior Secured Notes for which Solicitation Consents are provided) to each holder of record as of July 16, 2012 who validly consents to the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the First Priority Senior Secured Notes by validly delivering and not revoking a Solicitation Consent on or prior to the Acceptance Date. Solicitation Consents delivered after the Acceptance Date but on or prior to the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation Expiration Datewill still be entitled to the Consent Payment. In the event that the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitationis withdrawn or otherwise not completed, including if the Exchange Offers are not completed, the Consent Payment will not be paid or be payable to holders of First Priority Senior Secured Notes who have validly delivered Solicitation Consents in connection with the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation.

In connection with the First Priority Senior Secured Notes Consent Solicitation, as supplemented, Media has entered into a consent solicitation commitment and support agreement with holders of approximately $128.1 million, or 58.2%, of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the First Priority Senior Secured Notes, whereby such holders have (subject to certain terms and conditions contained in agreements between the parties), agreed to deliver Solicitation Consents for all of such holders' First Priority Senior Secured Notes.
