Tops Holding LLC and Tops Markets II Corporation Announce Early Results of Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation and Extension of Deadline for Receipt of Total Exchange Consideration

Williamsville, NY, July 24, 2017– Tops Holding LLC and Tops Markets II Corporation (the “Issuers”) today announced the early tender results for their previously announced exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) to certain eligible noteholders described below to exchange any and all of the outstanding $85,514,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.750%/9.500% Senior Notes due 2018 (CUSIP / ISIN Nos 89078XAB3 / US89078XAB38) (the “HoldCo Notes”) issued by Tops Holding II Corporation for a combination of new 9.000% Senior Amortizing Notes due 2021 (the “OpCo Notes”) and cash consideration.

According to information provided by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the exchange agent and information agent for the Exchange Offer, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on July 21, 2017 (the “Early Deadline”), the Issuers had received tenders and consents from holders of $76,426,000 in aggregate principal amount of the HoldCo Notes, representing approximately 89.37% of the total outstanding principal amount of the HoldCo Notes.

Accordingly, the Issuers have received consents sufficient to approve the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the HoldCo Notes (the “Consent Solicitation”), and Tops Holding II Corporation and the trustee for the HoldCo Notes will enter into a supplemental indenture containing such amendments. Such amendments will not become effective and operative, with respect to any HoldCo Notes that remain outstanding following the settlement of the Exchange Offer, unless and until the Issuers accept for exchange the HoldCo Notes validly tendered in the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation.

As the condition that Eligible Holders representing at least 90% of the aggregate principal amount of HoldCo Notes tender their HoldCo Notes in the Exchange Offer has not been met, the Issuers also announced that they have extended the date by which tenders must be received for holders to receive the “Total Exchange Consideration” of $883.50 in principal amount of OpCo Notes and $116.50 in cash consideration per $1,000 principal amount of HoldCo Notes to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on August 4, 2017, which date and time is the “Expiration Date” for the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation. Accordingly, all HoldCo Notes tendered at or prior to the Expiration Date, including those tendered at or prior to the Early Deadline, will be eligible to receive the Total Exchange Consideration, plus accrued and unpaid interest in cash on HoldCo Notes accepted for exchange through, but not including, the settlement date for the Exchange Offer. All other terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer and Consent Solicitation remain unchanged.  The Withdrawal Deadline and Early Deadline have expired. HoldCo Notes tendered for exchange may not be validly withdrawn and consents may not be revoked, unless the Issuers determine in the future in their sole discretion to permit withdrawal and revocation rights.
