Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On September 22, 2014, iHeart Communications, Inc. (“iHeart”), an indirect parent company of Clear Channel Outdoor Holdings, Inc., distributed a confidential preliminary offering circular dated September 22, 2014 (the “Offering Circular”) relating to the proposed offering of $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of iHeart’s Priority Guarantee Notes due 2022 (the “Proposed Offering”) to be offered and sold only to qualified institutional buyers in an unregistered offering pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Act. The notes will be issued as “additional notes” under the indenture governing iHeart’s outstanding Priority Guarantee Notes due 2022 that were issued on September 10, 2014.

The Offering Circular discloses that through September 19, 2014, revenues for iHeart’s iHeartMedia segment were pacing up 2.8%, with core stations pacing up 1.3%. Pacings for the Americas Outdoor advertising and International Outdoor advertising segments were down 0.8% and up 4.5%, respectively.

Pacing data reflects revenues booked at a specific date versus the comparable date in the prior period and may or may not reflect the actual revenue growth at the end of the period. iHeart’s revenue pacing information includes an adjustment to prior periods to include all acquisitions and exclude all divestitures in both periods presented for comparative purposes. It also excludes the effects of foreign exchange movements.

The pacing data included in the Offering Circular may be deemed material, non-public information and is being furnished hereby pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or incorporated by reference in any filing under the Act Act or the Exchange Act, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
