Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On October 30, 2015, Dex Media, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) by and among the Company, certain of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPM”) as an agent under (i) the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2013 (the “Dex East Credit Agreement”), by and among Dex Media East, Inc., as borrower, the Company, Dex Media Holdings, Inc. (“Holdings”), JPM, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each of the lenders from time to time party thereto; (ii) the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2013 (the “Dex West Credit Agreement”), among Dex Media West, Inc., as borrower, the Company, Holdings, JPM, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each of the lenders from time to time party thereto; and (iii) the Amended and Restated Loan Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2013 (the “SuperMedia Credit Agreement”), by and among SuperMedia, Inc., as borrower, the Company, JPM, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and each of the lenders from time to time party thereto; Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (“DB”) as an agent under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of April 30, 2013 (the “RHDI Credit Agreement” and, collectively with the Dex East Credit Agreement, the Dex West Credit Agreement and the SuperMedia Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreements”), by and among R.H. Donnelley Inc., as borrower, the Company, DB, as administrative agent and collateral agent (in its capacity as such and, collectively with JPM in its capacity as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Dex East Credit Agreement, the Dex West Credit Agreement, the Super Media Credit Agreement and as the shared collateral agent, the “Agents”) and each of the lenders from time to time party thereto; and each lender under the Credit Agreements executing the Forbearance Agreement (the “Subject Lenders”).

Pursuant to the terms of the Forbearance Agreement, the Agents and Subject Lenders have agreed that they will forbear, during the Forbearance Period (as defined below), from exercising rights and remedies (including enforcement and collection actions) with respect to or arising out of the events of default that occurred as a result of the borrowers under the Credit Agreements (i) potentially failing to comply with the maximum leverage and interest coverage ratios under the Credit Agreements (the “Potential Financial Covenant Default”) and (ii) the Company failing to satisfy its obligation to make an interest payment on September 30, 2015 related to the notes (the “Subordinated Notes”) issued under the Indenture, dated January 29, 2010, by and between the Company’s predecessor, R.H. Donnelley Corporation and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 30, 2013 (the “Indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee (the “Payment Default” and, together with the Potential Financial Covenant Default, the “Specified Events of Default”).

The forbearance period (the “Forbearance Period”) under the Forbearance Agreement will expire on the earliest to occur of (i) any representation or warranty made by or on behalf of the Company in or in connection with the Forbearance Agreement or in any certificate furnished to or in connection with the Forbearance Agreement or the Credit Agreements and related agreements shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect (or in any respect to the extent such representation or warranty is qualified by materiality) when made or deemed made; (ii) a failure by the Company to perform or comply with any covenant or term of the Forbearance Agreement; (iii) receipt by either of the Agents from the Company of a payment notice with respect to the Subordinated Notes; (iv) the making of payment of principal or interest, or certain fees with respect to the Subordinated Notes; (v) receipt by the Company (and expiration of four business days thereafter) of a notice of termination from the Agents under the Credit Agreements based upon the Trustee or any holders of the Subordinated Notes directly or indirectly exercising any of their remedies, including any acceleration of the indebtedness under the Subordinated Notes; (vi) upon two business days after the date the Company receives a notice of termination from the Agents as a result of the Trustee or any holders of the Subordinated Notes commencing foreclosure proceedings or commencing a seizure of the Company’s assets; (vii) any event of default under the Credit Agreements other than the Specified Events of Default, shall occur and be continuing; and (viii) 11:59 p.m. (New York time) on November 23, 2015.

2

In the Forbearance Agreement, the Company agreed to provide the Agents’ and Subject Lenders’ advisors reasonable access the Company’s officers, facilities and books and records and otherwise reasonably cooperate in connection with the Agents’ and Subject Lenders’ due diligence investigations. The Company also agreed to make its officers available to discuss the Company’s business and operations with the Agents’ and Subject Lenders’ advisors. As a condition to the effectiveness of the Forbearance Agreement, the Company paid the reasonable and documented fees of the Agents.

The foregoing description of the Forbearance Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Forbearance Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 2.04. Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

The Company’s Subordinated Notes require interest payments, payable semi-annually on March 31 and September 30 of each year. The Company elected not to make the semi-annual payment due on September 30, 2015. Because such default has continued for a period of 30 days, this nonpayment constitutes an event of default, and the Trustee, at the request of the holders of a majority in aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Notes, declared the Subordinated Notes to be immediately due and payable on November 2, 2015. As of the date hereof, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Subordinated Notes is $260,943,594. Amounts outstanding under the Subordinated Notes accrue interest at a rate of 12% per annum for cash interest payments and 14% per annum for payments-in-kind (“PIK”) interest. PIK interest represents additional indebtedness and increases the principal amount owed. As of the date hereof, accrued cash interest under the Subordinated Notes was $10,756,675 and accrued PIK interest was $10,756,675. Overdue interest on the Subordinated Notes accrues interest at a rate of 12% per annum, payable in cash.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

Restructuring Support Agreement and Term Sheet

In connection with entering into the Forbearance Agreement, the Company received a term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) and accompanying Restructuring Support Agreement (“RSA”) from the steering committee of the ad hoc group of Subject Lenders (the “Steering Committee”) that hold over 50% of claims arising out of or related to each of the Credit Agreements, which incorporated the material terms of a global restructuring plan to restructure the Company’s balance sheet.  The Company and its advisors are currently engaged in productive negotiations with the Steering Committee and their advisors regarding the RSA and Term Sheet, with a goal of agreeing on the material terms of a consensual restructuring between and among the Company, the Agents, and the Subject Lenders.

On November 5, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing that it had entered into the Forbearance Agreement and had received drafts of a term sheet and the RSA.  The press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

Cross-Default and Payment Blockage Notice

The Trustee declaring the Subordinated Notes to be immediately due and payable on November 2, 2015, as disclosed in Item 2.04 above, triggered cross-defaults under each of the Credit Agreements. As a result of such cross-defaults, the obligations under each of the Credit Agreements could be accelerated and declared immediately due and payable under the terms of the Credit Agreements. On November 4, 2015, the Agents delivered notice of their election to effect a 179-day payment blockage with respect to the Subordinated Notes pursuant to the terms of the Indenture.

As of October 30, 2015, the Company had a cash balance of approximately $205.3 million, which provides substantial liquidity to fund its current operations.

Dex Media enters into forbearance agreement and receives term sheet and restructuring support agreement from senior lenders

DALLAS, November 5, 2015 — Dex Media, Inc. (NASDAQ:DXM), one of the largest national providers of social, local and mobile marketing solutions to local businesses, today announced it has entered into a forbearance agreement with lenders under its senior secured credit facilities. The agreement is effective through November 23, 2015, pending certain conditions.

In addition, the Company announced it has received a term sheet and restructuring support agreement (RSA) from the ad hoc committee of lenders holding more than 50% of its senior secured credit facilities. The Company and its advisors are reviewing the term sheet and RSA, and are continuing negotiations with the Company’s lenders with a goal of agreeing on terms of a consensual restructuring.

“Constructive discussions with our lenders over the past few months have now led to a term sheet and restructuring support agreement. The forbearance agreement provides additional time to agree on a plan to restructure our debt facilities,” said Joe Walsh, Dex Media President and CEO. “We remain focused on implementing our long term business plan and putting in place the right strategic, operational and financial structure to support our business for many years to come.”

As previously announced, the Company elected to take advantage of a 30-day grace period to make an interest payment due on its senior subordinated notes, which was due on September 30, 2015. The Company did not make the interest payment within the grace period, and as a result, the Company’s bondholders have declared the senior subordinated notes to be immediately due and payable.

The Company’s liquidity position remains strong, with a cash balance of approximately $205.3 million as of October 30, 2015, and its employees, clients and vendors should see no disruption to current operations as a result of this announcement.

Forward-Looking Statements

Some statements included in this release constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and the federal securities laws. Statements that include the words “may”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “would”, “believe”, “anticipate”, “forecast”, “estimate”, “expect”, “preliminary”, “intend”, “plan”, “project”, “outlook” and similar statements of a future or forward-looking nature identify forward-looking statements. You should not place undue reliance on these statements, as they are not guarantees of future performance. Forward-looking statements provide current expectations with respect to our financial performance and future events with respect to our business and industry in general. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and include any statement that does not directly relate to any historical or current fact. Forward-looking statements address matters that involve risks and uncertainties, and include, without limitation, future operating and financial performance of the Company, the implementation of the business transformation program and the ability of the Company to retain existing business and to obtain and retain new business. Accordingly, there are or will be important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in these statements. We believe that these factors include, but are not limited to, the risks related to the following: our ability to provide assurance for the long-term continued viability of our business; our non-compliance with certain covenants under our senior secured credit facilities and our senior subordinated notes; our ability to comply with the forbearance agreement or the risk that the forbearance agreement is terminated; limitations on our operating and strategic flexibility and the ability to operate our business, finance our capital needs or expand business strategies under the terms of our credit facilities; limited access to capital markets and increased borrowing costs resulting from our leveraged capital structure and debt ratings; our ability to obtain additional financing or refinance our existing indebtedness on satisfactory terms or at all; our ability to accurately report our financial results due to a material weakness in our internal control over financial reporting; possible changes in our credit rating; changes in our operating performance; our ability to implement our business transformation program as planned; our ability to realize the anticipated benefits in the amounts and at the times expected from the business transformation program; the risk that the amount of costs associated with our business transformation program will exceed estimates; reduced advertising spending and increased contract cancellations by our clients, which causes reduced revenue; declining use of print yellow page directories by consumers; our ability to collect trade receivables from clients to whom we extend credit; credit risk associated with our reliance on small and medium sized businesses as clients; our ability to anticipate or respond to changes in technology and user preferences; our ability to maintain agreements with major Internet search and local media companies; competition from other yellow page directory publishers and other traditional and new media including increased competition from existing and emerging digital technologies; changes in the availability and cost of paper and other raw materials used to print our directories; our reliance on third-party providers for printing, publishing and distribution services; our ability to attract and retain qualified key personnel; our ability to maintain good relations with our unionized employees; changes in labor, business, political and economic conditions; changes in governmental regulations and policies and actions of federal, state and local municipalities impacting our businesses; the outcome of pending or future litigation and other claims; and other events beyond our control that may result in unexpected adverse operating results. The foregoing factors should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read together with the other cautionary statements included in this and other periodic reports we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission “SEC”, including the information in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014, and Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, which is incorporated herein by reference. If one or more events related to these or other risks or uncertainties materialize, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual results may differ materially from what we anticipate. All forward-looking statements included in this report are expressly qualified in their entirety by the foregoing cautionary statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof or, in the case of statements incorporated by reference, on the date of the document incorporated by reference and, other than as required by law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
