SCHEDULE 13D/A

in respect of
IHEARTMEDIA, INC.
This statement on Schedule 13D/A relates to the shares of Class A common stock, par value $.001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of iHeartMedia, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The statement on Schedule 13D originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Liberty Media Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Reporting Person”), on November 16, 2020 (the “Schedule 13D”) is hereby amended and supplemented to include the information set forth herein. This amended statement on Schedule 13D/A constitutes Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D (this “Amendment,” and together with the Schedule 13D, this “Statement”). This Amendment constitutes an exit filing of the Reporting Person in respect of shares of Class A Common Stock previously reported as beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings given to such terms in the Schedule 13D. Except as set forth herein, the Schedule 13D is unmodified.
Item 2. Identity and Background
The information contained in Item 2(d)-(f) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
(d) - (f)
Schedule 1, attached to this Statement and incorporated herein by reference, provides the required information with respect to each executive officer and director, as applicable, of the Reporting Person (the “Schedule 1 Persons”). Each of such executive officers and directors is a citizen of the United States, unless otherwise noted on Schedule 1.
During the last five years, neither the Reporting Person nor any of the Schedule 1 Persons (to the knowledge of the Reporting Person) has been convicted in a criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction resulting in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.
Item 4. Purpose of Transaction
The information contained in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following:
On October 5, 2021, the Reporting Person determined to dispose of all of the securities of the Issuer beneficially owned by it and executed a block trade for 5,941,248 shares of Class A Common Stock at a price per share of $25.25 through a broker in the open market. As a result of the block trade, together with previous market sales made from time to time, the Reporting Person no longer beneficially owns any shares of Class A Common Stock.
