Sphere Entertainment extends MSG Networks loan forbearance to April 4, 2025

Negative Impact 4 of 5 financing Written later

Sphere Entertainment subsidiary MSGN Holdings L.P. has had its lender forbearance extended by two days, through the earlier of 11:59 p.m. E.T. on April 4, 2025 or a termination event. The forbearance covers a missed term loan principal payment due at the October 11, 2024 maturity and a possible future default tied to the MSG Networks budget deadline, so the lenders' remedies remain on hold only for a short period.

Key points

  • MSGN L.P. did not make the term loan principal payment due at the October 11, 2024 maturity; the forbearance period was first set to end November 8, 2024, then extended to April 2, 2025.
  • On April 2, 2025, lenders agreed by email to extend the forbearance period to the earlier of April 4, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. E.T. or a Termination Event.
  • The forbearance also covers failure to deliver the MSG Networks budget for the next fiscal year by March 31, 2025, which would be an event of default if not cured within 30 days.
  • The email amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and is dated April 2, 2025.
