On June 24, 2025, Uniti Group LP, Uniti Group Finance 2019 Inc., Uniti Fiber Holdings Inc. and CSL Capital, LLC (together, the “Issuers”), each a subsidiary of Uniti Group Inc. (the “Company” and, together with the Issuers, “us” or “we”), completed a private offering of $600,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Issuers’ 8.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Notes”). The Issuers used the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to fund the partial redemption of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of their outstanding 10.50% senior notes due 2028, including related premiums, fees and expenses in connection with the foregoing, and will use the remaining net proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The Notes were issued at an issue price of 100.000% of their principal amount pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of June 24, 2025 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuers, the guarantors named therein (collectively, the “Guarantors”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”). The Notes mature on June 15, 2032 and bear interest at a rate of 8.625% per year. Interest on the Notes is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2025.

The Issuers may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time prior to June 15, 2028 at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus an applicable “make whole” premium described in the Indenture. Thereafter, the Issuers may redeem the Notes in whole or in part, at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture. In addition, at any time on or prior to June 15, 2028, up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes may be redeemed with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 108.625% of the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the applicable redemption date; provided that at least 60% of aggregate principal amount of the originally issued Notes remains outstanding. If certain changes of control of Uniti Group LP occur, holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Issuers to offer to repurchase their Notes at 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date.

The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and by each of Uniti Group LP’s existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries (other than the Issuers) that guarantees indebtedness under the Company’s senior secured credit facility and existing senior notes (except initially certain regulated subsidiaries for which the Company will seek regulatory approval to enable them to guarantee the Notes). The guarantees are subject to release under specified circumstances, including certain circumstances in which such guarantees may be automatically released without the consent of the holders of the Notes.

The Notes and the related guarantees are the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ senior unsecured obligations and rank equal in right of payment with all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to any of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ subordinated indebtedness. The Notes and the related guarantees are effectively subordinated to all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ secured indebtedness (including the senior secured credit facility and outstanding senior secured notes) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including trade payables) of the Issuers’ subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Notes.

The Indenture contains customary high yield covenants limiting the ability of Uniti Group LP and its restricted subsidiaries to: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; incur or guarantee secured indebtedness; pay dividends or distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock; make certain investments or other restricted payments; sell assets; transfer material intellectual property to unrestricted subsidiaries; enter into transactions with affiliates; merge or consolidate or sell all or substantially all of their assets; and create restrictions on the ability of the Issuers and their restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or other amounts to the Issuers. These covenants are subject to a number of important and significant limitations, qualifications and exceptions. The Indenture also contains customary events of default.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture and the form of Note included therein, which are filed herewith as Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
