Warrant Distribution Record Date
The Board has set a record date of the close of business on October 5, 2026 (the "Record Date") for the Company’s previously announced distribution of warrants ("Warrants") to purchase shares of Class B Common Stock. The Company expects to distribute the Warrants on or about October 13, 2026 (the "Issue Date"). The distribution of the Warrants is contingent on the closing of the previously announced acquisition by the Company of Warner Bros. Discovery, Inc. (the "WBD Merger"); however, the WBD Merger is subject to further closing conditions, and the ultimate timing for the closing of the WBD Merger, if any, is not yet certain. As a result, the Company may, at its discretion, choose to cancel the Record Date and/or the Issue Date or postpone the Record Date and/or the Issue Date to a later date. If the Record Date and/or the Issue Date is cancelled or postponed, the Company will issue a public announcement of such change in a manner that complies with the rules of the exchange where the Company is then listed.
As previously disclosed on April 7, 2026, a special committee of the Board that was established in connection with the Company’s approval of the WBD Merger recommended to the Board the declaration of a distribution of Warrants to holders of Class B Common Stock as of the Record Date, excluding each of Lawrence J. Ellison, David F. Ellison, Gerald J. Cardinale, The Lawrence J. Ellison Revocable Trust, u/a/d 1/22/88, as amended, and RedBird Capital Partners Fund IV (Master), L.P. or any of their respective affiliates, successors or transferees (collectively, the "Restricted Holders").
On the Issue Date, each share of Class B Common Stock held by a stockholder as of the Record Date, other than the Restricted Holders (including any of the Company’s wholly owned subsidiaries that own Class B Common Stock), the Paramount Global 401(k) Plan and the Paramount Global Master Trust, will receive one (1) Warrant, rounded down to the nearest whole Warrant. The Company expects to issue approximately 470 million Warrants on the Issue Date. Shares of Class B Common Stock held by the Paramount Global 401(k) Plan and the Paramount Global Master Trust will, in lieu of receiving Warrants in the warrant distribution, receive shares of Class B Common Stock.
If issued, each Warrant initially will entitle the holder thereof to purchase one (1) share of Class B Common Stock at an initial exercise price per share equal to the average of the daily volume-weighted average price of the Class B Common Stock for the twenty (20) trading days ending on (and including) the third (3rd) business day prior to the closing of the WBD Merger, subject to a maximum of $16.02 per share and a minimum of $12.00 per share. The exercise price of the Warrants will be subject to certain anti-dilution and other adjustments. The Company intends to apply to list the Warrants for trading on the NYSE, subject to applicable approvals, and the Warrants will trade separately from the Company’s Class B Common Stock.
