EOC is the managing member of January HoldCo and January Sub (EOC, January HoldCo and January Sub, collectively, the "EDR Subscribers"). WME IMG is an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Endeavor. As a result, Endeavor may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held of record by the EDR Subscribers or WME IMG. The Reporting Person is a member of the governing body of Endeavor and as a result may be deemed to share beneficial ownership of the securities beneficially owned by Endeavor.
In addition, the Reporting Person is the record holder of 60,374 shares of Class A Common Stock.
The above percentage is based on 81,149,701 shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding as of October 31, 2024. | |
(c) | In connection with the MLA Amendment (as defined in Item 6) EOC contributed all of its TKO Opco Units to January HoldCo for no consideration. In addition, (a) on December 11, 2024, December 12, 2024 and December 13, 2024, WME IMG purchased 31,352, 60,208 and 90,500 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively, in a series of open market transactions at weighted average prices of $142.02, $143.73 and $142.44, respectively, and (b) on December 13, 2024, December 16, 2024 and December 17, 2024, EOC purchased 155,387, 263,200 and 263,200 shares of Class A Common Stock, respectively, in a series of open market transactions at weighted average prices of $142.46, $146.97 and $147.12, respectively. None of the foregoing transactions involved a purchase of Class A Common Stock by Mr. Emanuel. Except for the foregoing and the transaction described in Item 6, during the past 60 days, the Reporting Person has not effected any transactions with respect to the Class A Common Stock. | |
(d) | None | |
(e) | Not applicable. | |
Item 6. | Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to Securities of the Issuer | |
Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
On December 16, 2024 (the "MLA Amendment Date"), January HoldCo entered into an amendment to the Margin Loan Agreement (the "MLA Amendment"), increasing the available amount of borrowings thereunder to $2.25 billion. As security for the Margin Loan Agreement, as amended by the MLA Amendment, January HoldCo has granted a first-priority lien to the lenders, pro rata to the amount of their commitments, on additional TKO Opco Units and shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock"), of the Issuer, increasing the total Pledged Securities to 83,074,858 million TKO Opco Units and a corresponding number of shares of Class B Common Stock. For the avoidance of doubt, the Margin Loan Agreement, as amended, is a loan facility of January HoldCo, which is secured by certain of January HoldCo's equity interests in the Issuer and does not constitute indebtedness at the Issuer. |
