Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 12, 2016, our subsidiary, Sirius XM Radio Inc. (“Sirius XM”), entered into an arrangement agreement (the “Arrangement Agreement”) with Sirius XM Canada Holdings Inc. (“Sirius XM Canada”), an entity in which Sirius XM currently holds an approximate 37% economic interest and 25% voting interest. Pursuant to the Arrangement Agreement, Sirius XM and certain Canadian shareholders will form a new company to acquire shares of Sirius XM Canada not already owned by them pursuant to a plan of arrangement (the “Transaction”). In connection with the Transaction, Sirius XM Canada’s shareholders will be entitled to elect to receive, for each share of Sirius XM Canada held, C$4.50 (U.S.$3.50 as of May 12, 2016) in (i) cash, (ii) shares of our common stock, (iii) a security exchangeable for shares of our common stock, or (iv) a combination thereof; provided that no more than 35.0 million shares of our common stock will be issued in the Transaction. All of the obligations of Sirius XM under the Arrangement Agreement are guaranteed by us.
Following the Transaction, Sirius XM is expected to hold a 70% economic interest and 33% voting interest in Sirius XM Canada, with the remainder of the voting power and economic interest held by Slaight Communications and Obelysk Media, two of Sirius XM Canada’s current Canadian shareholders. Sirius XM expects to contribute to Sirius XM Canada approximately U.S.$275 million in connection with the Transaction (assuming that all shareholders elect to receive cash in connection with the Transaction), which amount is expected to be used to pay the cash consideration to Sirius XM Canada’s shareholders and will be decreased proportionately if shareholders elect to receive consideration in shares of our common stock or securities exchangeable for our common stock.
The Transaction is subject to the approval of two-thirds of the shareholders of Sirius XM Canada, as well as a majority of the minority shareholders of Sirius XM Canada. The Transaction is also subject to receipt of court and Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission approval. Pending receipt of all necessary approvals, the Transaction is expected to close no later than end of the fourth quarter of 2016.
On May 13, 2016, we issued a press release announcing the Transaction. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
