Intelsat Announces Pricing of Senior Notes
Luxembourg, 12 April 2012
Intelsat S.A., the world’s leading provider of satellite services, today announced that its subsidiary, Intelsat Jackson Holdings S.A. (“Intelsat Jackson”), priced $1,200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 7 1/4% senior notes due 2020 (the “notes”) at an offering price of 101.75%, plus accrued and unpaid interest from April 15, 2012. The notes will provide an effective yield of 6.91%. The notes will be issued under the same indenture as Intelsat Jackson’s existing 7 1/4% senior notes due 2020. Intelsat Jackson’s obligations under the notes will be guaranteed by certain of its parent and subsidiary companies.
The net proceeds from the sale of the notes are expected to be used by Intelsat Jackson to purchase any and all of its $701,913,000 outstanding 9 1/2% Senior Notes due 2016 and up to $470,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its $1,048,220,000 outstanding 11 1/4% Senior Notes due 2016, in each case that are validly tendered in connection with Intelsat Jackson’s amended tender offers announced on April 12, 2012. Proceeds from the sale of the notes may also be used to redeem or repurchase notes not purchased in the applicable tender offer, to pay related fees and expenses and for general corporate purposes.
The notes referred to above are being offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act and applicable exemptions from registration, prospectus or like requirements under the laws and regulations of the relevant jurisdictions outside the United States. The notes will not be registered under the Securities Act and, until registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The notes referred to above will also not be registered in any jurisdiction outside of the |
|
| United States and no action or steps will be taken to permit the offer of the notes in any such jurisdiction where any registration or other action or steps would be required to permit an offer of the notes.
The notes may therefore not be offered or sold in any such jurisdiction except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the relevant requirements of laws and regulations of such jurisdictions.
No prospectus as required by the Directive 2003/71/EC (and the implementing laws and regulations in the relevant member states) has been filed with respect to the notes and therefore no offers of notes may be made in any Member States of the European Economic Area unless made pursuant to an exemption under the Directive 2003/71/EC (and the implementing laws and regulations in the relevant Member States).
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or any other securities of Intelsat, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of the notes in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
