Expand Energy Corporation Announces Pricing Terms of Cash Tender Offer for its 5.500% Senior Notes due 2026
27 Noviembre 2024 - 11:02AM
Expand Energy Corporation (NASDAQ: EXE) (“Expand Energy”) announced
today the pricing terms of the previously announced cash tender
offer to purchase (the “Tender Offer”) any and all of its
outstanding 5.500% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). The
complete terms and conditions of the Tender Offer were set forth in
an Offer to Purchase dated November 20, 2024 (as supplemented, the
“Offer to Purchase”), and the related Notice of Guaranteed
Delivery.
The “Purchase Price” for each $1,000 principal
amount of the Notes validly tendered, and not validly withdrawn,
and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be
determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by
reference to the fixed spread specified below plus the yield based
on the bid-side price of the U.S. Treasury Reference Security
specified below as of 11:00 a.m. New York City time today, the date
on which the Tender Offer is currently scheduled to expire. The
Purchase Price is based on a yield to February 5, 2025, the date of
the next specified redemption price reduction under the indenture
governing the Notes, and assuming the Notes are redeemed on
February 5, 2025, at the specified redemption price for such date
of 100.000% of the principal amount, as described in the Offer to
Purchase.

In addition to the Purchase Price, holders whose
Notes are purchased pursuant to the Tender Offer will also receive
accrued and unpaid interest thereon from the last interest payment
date up to, but not including, December 3, 2024 (the “Settlement
Date”), payable on the Settlement Date, assuming that the Tender
Offer is not extended or earlier terminated.
The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m. New
York City Time today, unless extended by Expand Energy in its sole
discretion (such time and date as the same may be extended, the
“Expiration Time”). Tendered Notes may be withdrawn at any time
before the Expiration Time. Holders of Notes must validly tender
and not validly withdraw their Notes (or comply with the procedures
for guaranteed delivery) before the Expiration Time to be eligible
to receive the Purchase Price for their Notes. All Notes purchased
on the Settlement Date will subsequently be retired and cancelled.
Expand Energy will fund the payment for tendered and accepted Notes
with the net proceeds from Expand Energy’s previously announced
issuance and sale (the “Notes Offering”) of $750 million aggregate
principal amount of its 5.700% Senior Notes due 2035 (the “New
Notes”) together with cash on hand.
The consummation of the Tender Offer is subject
to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain
conditions described in the Offer to Purchase.

(USA) LLC are acting as dealer managers for the Tender Offer (the
“Dealer Managers”). For questions regarding the Tender Offer, the
