DigitalBridge Announces Exchange with Holders of $106 Million of Exchangeable Notes

DigitalBridge Group, Inc. (“DigitalBridge”), today announced that DigitalBridge and DigitalBridge Operating Company, LLC (the "Issuer") entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement (the “Early Exchange Agreement”) with certain noteholders (the “Noteholders”) of the Issuer’s 5.75% Exchangeable Senior Notes due 2025 (the “2025 Notes”), pursuant to which the Noteholders have agreed to exchange approximately $106 million in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2025 Notes for shares of DigitalBridge’s class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), similar to the previous privately negotiated exchange which closed in October 2021.

Under the terms of the Early Exchange Agreement, the original exchange ratio of 434.7826 shares per $1,000 of value has been adjusted to account for savings on future interest payments otherwise due to the Noteholders. For example, using the closing price of DigitalBridge Common Stock on November 15, 2021 of $8.17 (assuming a consistent price across the adjustment period described below), the exchange ratio would be 452.1261 shares per $1,000 of value, with the incremental 17 shares representing value for the incremental interest otherwise due to the Noteholders through 2025. In this example, the number of shares of Common Stock to be issued by DigitalBridge to the Noteholders would be approximately 48.1 million shares.

The Early Exchange Agreement incorporates a reference price and an adjustment mechanism to capture fluctuations in the price of the Common Stock for the next five trading days, and DigitalBridge expects to complete the exchange on or around November 24, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions. DigitalBridge has agreed to pay the Noteholders accrued but unpaid interest on their 2025 Notes in cash, which is approximately $2.2 million through the anticipated closing date.

“We’re pleased to have now exchanged a total of $150 million of the 2025 Notes, representing half of the original issuance” said Jacky Wu, CFO of DigitalBridge. “This agreement continues to accelerate the steady improvement of DigitalBridge cash flows.”

The exchange of treasury shares of Common Stock for the 2025 Notes is being made pursuant to an exemption from registration provided in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. This press release does not constitute an offer to exchange the 2025 Notes or other securities of the Issuer for Common Stock or other securities of DigitalBridge or the Issuer. The foregoing description of the Early Exchange Agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Early Exchange Agreement.
