On February 24, 2022, OUTFRONT Media Inc., a Maryland corporation (the “Company”), filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) an automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (the “New Registration Statement”) to replace the existing automatic shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-230366) filed with the SEC on March 18, 2019 (the “Prior Registration Statement”), which was scheduled to expire on March 18, 2022 pursuant to Rule 415(a)(5) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Prior Registration Statement was deemed terminated upon the effectiveness of the New Registration Statement on February 24, 2022.

In connection with the filing of the New Registration Statement, the Company also filed the following two prospectus supplements:

(i)          A prospectus supplement (the “ATM Prospectus Supplement”) covering the offering of an aggregate offering price of up to $232,528,589 of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), pursuant to the ATM Equity OfferingSM Sales Agreement (the “Sales Agreement”). The ATM Prospectus Supplement continues an offering, from time to time, of Common Stock having an aggregate offering price of up to $267,545,979 previously covered by the Prior Registration Statement. A copy of the Sales Agreement was previously filed as Exhibit 1.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 21, 2017.

The AV Prospectus Supplement continues an offering of up to 1,623,256 shares of the Company’s Common Stock previously covered by the Prior Registration Statement. The issuance of the Class A Shares was previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on June 14, 2017.
