CINCINNATI, Sept. 13, 2016 -- Cincinnati Bell Inc. (NYSE:CBB) (the “Company”) today announced that it plans to offer $425 million aggregate principal amount of its senior notes due 2024 (the “Notes”), subject to market and other conditions. The Notes will be guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, by certain of the Company’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to purchase any and all of the Company’s outstanding 8.375% Senior Notes due 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) that are validly tendered in a tender offer commenced by the Company today (the “Tender Offer”) and to redeem, repurchase or satisfy and discharge any 2020 Notes not purchased in the Tender Offer (in each case, including paying any accrued interest) in accordance with the indenture for the 2020 Notes and pay related transaction fees and expenses.
The Notes will be offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to persons outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes and the related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
This press release is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to buy or sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell the securities described herein. There shall not be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
