Item 1.01.						Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 17, 2021, 星空传媒 Inc., an Ohio corporation (the “Company”), entered into the Third Amendment to Asset-Based Revolving Credit Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America N.A., as administrative agent (the “Agent”). The Third Amendment amends that certain Asset-Based Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of March 13, 2020 (as previously amended, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto and the Agent. The Third Amendment, among other things, increases the amount of tranche A revolver commitments available thereunder by an additional $1,000 million and exchanges $150 million of tranche B revolver commitments available thereunder for tranche A revolver commitments. After giving effect to the Third Amendment, the aggregate principal amount of tranche A revolver commitments under the Credit Agreement is $4,500 million and the aggregate principal amount of tranche B revolver commitments under the Credit Agreement is $0.00.
