Item 1.01 – Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 12, 2017, Alarcon Holdings, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Spanish Broadcasting System, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Contract of Purchase and Sale, as amended by the Amendment to Contract of Purchase and Sale dated as of October 31, 2017 (collectively, the “Agreement”), to sell a building and real property located at 26 West 56th Street, New York, New York 10019 (the “Premises”) to 26 W. 56 LLC (the “Purchaser”). The due diligence period provided for in the Agreement expired on October 31, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. New York City time.

The purchase price for the Premises is $14,000,000, exclusive of closing costs (the “Purchase Price”). Upon the execution of the Agreement, the Purchaser deposited the sum of $2,800,000 into escrow as a deposit against the Purchase Price, with the remaining balance of $11,200,000 to be paid at the closing. The Company will use the net proceeds, as such term is defined in the Indenture governing the Company’s outstanding 12.5% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Notes”), received from the sale of the Premises to repay a portion of the Notes.  

The foregoing is a brief description of the terms of the Agreement and is subject to, and qualified entirely by reference to, the full text of the Agreement, to be filed with the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2017.
