Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 31, 2013, USG Corporation (the “Corporation”) completed the private offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of its 5.875% senior notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued under the Corporation’s Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2006 (as supplemented prior to the date hereof, the “Original Indenture”), by and between the Corporation and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”), and as supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 5, dated as of October 31, 2013, by and among the Corporation, certain of the Corporation’s domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors, and the Trustee (“Supplemental Indenture No. 5” and together with the Original Indenture, the “Indenture”). The Notes will bear interest at a rate of 5.875% per year. The Corporation will pay interest on the Notes on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning May 1, 2014. The Notes will mature on November 1, 2021. The Notes are senior unsecured obligations and rank equally with all of the Corporation’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. The Corporation’s obligations under the Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of its domestic subsidiaries. The Indenture contains certain customary restrictions, including a limitation that restricts the Corporation’s ability and the ability of specified subsidiaries of the Corporation to create or incur secured indebtedness.
The above description of the Indenture, including Supplemental Indenture No. 5 filed herewith, is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms of those documents, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission and incorporated herein by reference.
The Notes were offered and sold only to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.
