Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 21, 2015, Pandora Media, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment and Restatement Agreement (the “Amendment and Restatement Agreement”), which, among other things, (1) amends and restates the Credit Agreement dated as of May 13, 2011, as amended and restated as of September 12, 2013, and as further amended on December 2, 2015 (as so amended and restated, the “Restated Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as the borrower, Pandora Media California, LLC (“PMC”) and Ticketfly, LLC (“Ticketfly” and, together with PMC, the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) and (2) amends the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of May 13, 2011, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of August 10, 2011 and Supplement No. 2 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of January 19, 2012 (the “Security Agreement”), made by the Company and PMC in favor of the Administrative Agent. Ticketfly also entered into Supplement No. 3 to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of December 21, 2015, in favor of the Administrative Agent (the “Security Agreement Joinder”).

 

The Restated Credit Agreement, among other things, (1) increased the size of the lenders’ commitments to an aggregate principal amount of $120 million outstanding at any one time; (2) increased the minimum liquidity requirements in proportion to the commitments increase; (3) exempted non-material subsidiaries from the general requirement that subsidiaries join the Security Agreement and pledge certain assets, including equity interests, to the Administrative Agent as security for the Company’s obligations under the Restated Credit Agreement; and (4) incorporated certain market updates relating to LIBOR administration and sanctions law.

 

The foregoing summary of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the Restated Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement Joinder do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the Amendment and Restatement Agreement, the Restated Credit Agreement and the Security Agreement Joinder, which will be filed as exhibits to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2015.
