Guarantor Arrangements

The Company recognizes, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken by issuing the guarantee. The following is a summary of agreements that the Company has determined are within the scope of guarantor arrangements:

The Company enters into indemnification agreements in the ordinary course of business. Under these agreements, the Company typically indemnifies, holds harmless, and agrees to reimburse the indemnified party for losses suffered or incurred by the indemnified party. The maximum potential amount of future payments the Company could be required to make under these indemnification agreements is unlimited. The Company believes that the estimated fair value of these agreements is minimal. Accordingly, the Company has not recorded liabilities for these agreements as of December 31, 2017.
Under the Company’s Credit Facility, the Company is required to reimburse lenders for any increased costs that they may incur in the event of a change in law, rule or regulation resulting in their reduced returns from any change in capital requirements. The Company cannot estimate the potential amount of any future payment under this provision, nor can the Company predict if such an event will ever occur.
In connection with many of the Company’s acquisitions, the Company enters into a TBA or LMA for specified periods of time, usually six months or less, whereby the Company typically indemnifies the owner and operator of the radio station, their employees, agents and contractors from liability, claims and damages arising from the activities of operating the radio station under such agreements. The maximum potential amount of any future payments the Company could be required to make for any such previous indemnification obligations is indeterminable at this time. The Company has not, however, previously incurred any significant costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims relating to any such indemnification obligation.

Financial Statements of Parent

The condensed financial data of the Parent Company has been prepared in accordance with Rule 12-04 of Regulation S-X. The Parent Company’s financial data includes the financial data of Entercom Communications Corp., excluding all subsidiaries.

The most significant restrictions on the payment of dividends by CBS Radio (as contemplated by Rule 4-08(e) of Regulation S-X) are set forth in the Credit Facility and the indenture governing the Senior Notes.

Under the Credit Facility, CBS Radio is permitted to make distributions to the Parent Company in amounts, as defined, as follows: (a) amounts which are required to pay the Parent Company’s overhead costs; and (b) other restricted payments (“Other Restricted Payment”). With respect to the Credit Facility, the permitted Other Restricted Payment is generally an amount which does not trigger a default or exceed a Consolidated Net Leverage Ratio of 5.00 times. The Company’s ability to make an Other Restricted Payment in these amounts under the Credit Facility is a function of its leverage ratio.

Effectively all of CBS Radio’s assets are subject to these distribution limitations to the Parent Company.

The following tables set forth the condensed financial data (other than the statements of shareholders’ equity as this statement is not condensed) of the Parent Company:

the balance sheets as of December 31, 2017 and 2016;
