Exhibit

LOS ANGELES (March 15, 2018) – Live Nation Entertainment, Inc. (NYSE: LYV) (the “company”) today announced that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $500 million in aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes due 2023 (the “Convertible Notes”) and $300 million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2026 (the “Senior Notes”). The company intends to use the net proceeds from these offerings to repurchase its 2.5% convertible senior notes due 2019 from time to time, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.

In connection with the Convertible Notes offering, the company expects to grant the initial purchasers a 30-day option to purchase an additional $50 million aggregate principal amount of such Convertible Notes to cover over-allotments, if any. The completion of the Convertible Notes offering is not contingent on the completion of the Senior Notes offering, and the completion of the Senior Notes offering is not contingent on the completion of the Convertible Notes offering.

The Convertible Notes will mature on March 15, 2023, unless repurchased or converted in accordance with their terms prior to such date. Prior to the close of business on the business day immediately preceding December 15, 2022, the Convertible Notes will be convertible only upon satisfaction of certain conditions and during certain periods; thereafter, the Convertible Notes will be convertible at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date. Upon conversion, holders of the Convertible Notes will receive shares of the company's common stock, cash or a combination thereof, at the company's election. Holders of the Convertible Notes will have the right to require the company to repurchase all or a portion of their Convertible Notes at 100% of their principal, plus any accrued and unpaid interest, upon the occurrence of certain corporate events constituting a "fundamental change" as defined in the indenture for the Convertible Notes.

Each of the Convertible Notes and Senior Notes will be offered through a private placement and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws. As a result, the Convertible Notes, the Senior Notes and any common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any “U.S. persons” except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Accordingly, the Convertible Notes and Senior Notes will be offered only to “qualified institutional buyers” under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and, in the case of the Senior Notes, outside the United States, to persons other than “U.S. persons” in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Convertible Notes, any common stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes or the Senior Notes, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
