SPHRSphere Entertainment Co. Apr 21, 8:31 PM ET

Sphere Entertainment extends MSGN loan forbearance three days to April 24, 2025

Negative financing Written later 1.012.03

Sphere Entertainment's subsidiary MSGN Holdings L.P. agreed by email on April 21, 2025 to a three-day extension of a forbearance agreement with its lenders, which pauses lender remedies over a missed term loan payment and a budget delivery requirement. The forbearance period now runs until 11:59 p.m. E.T. on April 24, 2025, or an earlier termination event, unless extended further. The filing shows the lenders have not yet been paid and the arrangement remains short-term, which matters to shareholders because the financing situation is still unresolved.

  • Forbearance period extended by three days to 11:59 p.m. E.T. on April 24, 2025
  • Extension agreed by email on April 21, 2025, with the forbearance originally set to expire November 8, 2024
  • Underlying issue: MSGN L.P. did not pay term loan principal at its October 11, 2024 maturity
  • Separate condition: failure to deliver MSG Networks' budget by March 31, 2025 would be an event of default if not cured by April 30, 2025
