Exhibit 99.1

 

Â鶹app Announces Terms for Previously Announced Rights Offering

 

ENGLEWOOD, Colo., May 16, 2016.  Â鶹app (Nasdaq: LSXMA, LSXMB, LSXMK, BATRA, BATRK, LMCA, LMCK) (“Â鶹app”) announced today terms for Â鶹app’s previously announced distribution (the “Rights Distribution”) of subscription rights to holders of its Series A, Series B and Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock to acquire shares of its Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock (the “Series C Â鶹app Braves Rights”) in a rights offering to follow such distribution (the “Rights Offering”).  The distribution date for the Rights Distribution will be 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 18, 2016. The record date for the Rights Distribution will be 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 16, 2016 (such date and time, the “Rights Record Date”); however, as a result of “due bill” trading procedures, those persons acquiring shares of Â鶹app Braves common stock in the market following the Rights Record Date but prior to the ex-dividend date (discussed below) will be entitled to receive Series C Â鶹app Braves Rights.

   

In the Rights Distribution, Â鶹app will distribute 0.47 of a Series C Â鶹app Braves Right for each share of Series A, Series B or Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock held as of the Rights Record Date. Fractional Series C Â鶹app Braves Rights will be rounded up to the nearest whole right. No rights to purchase shares of any other series of Â鶹app’s common stock will be issued in the Rights Distribution.  Each whole Series C Â鶹app Braves Right will entitle the holder to purchase, pursuant to the basic subscription privilege, one share of Â鶹app’s Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock at a subscription price of $12.80, which is equal to an approximate 20% discount to the trading day volume weighted average trading price of Â鶹app’s Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock for the 18-day trading period ending on May 11, 2016.  Each Series C Â鶹app Braves Right also entitles the holder to subscribe for additional shares of Series C Â鶹app Braves common stock that are unsubscribed for in the Rights Offering pursuant to an oversubscription privilege. It is expected that the Rights Offering will commence on May 19, 2016, which is also the proposed ex-dividend date for the distribution of the Series C Â鶹app Braves Rights, and will remain open for 20 trading days, subject to extension. Â鶹app expects that the Series C Â鶹app Braves Rights will be tradable beginning on the commencement date. Â鶹app intends to announce the definitive ex-dividend date and trading information (including when-issued trading information) as soon as they have been confirmed.

 

For additional information on the Rights Offering, please see the prospectus included in Â鶹app’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission prior to the Rights Distribution.

 

The completion of the Rights Distribution remains subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, and Â鶹app reserves the right to terminate the Rights Offering at any time prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering, including prior to the Rights Distribution or the commencement of the Rights Offering.
