Studio City Finance Limited (“Studio City Finance”) today announces
that it has initiated a cash tender offer for up to an aggregate
principal amount of US$100 million (the “Maximum Tender Amount”) of
its outstanding 6.000% senior notes due 2025 (ISIN: US86389QAE26
and USG85381AE48) (the “Notes” and such tender offer, the “Tender
Offer”).
The Tender Offer is being made upon and is
subject to the terms and conditions set out in the Offer to
Purchase, dated April 8, 2024 (the “Offer to Purchase”). The Tender
Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 6, 2024,
unless extended or terminated by Studio City Finance (the
“Expiration Time”). Tenders of the Notes may be withdrawn at any
time at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 19,
2024 (the “Withdrawal Deadline”), but may not be withdrawn
thereafter except in certain limited circumstances where additional
withdrawal rights are required by law.
The consideration for each US$1,000 principal
amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) on or
prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on April 19, 2024 (the
“Early Tender Date”), and accepted for purchase will be US$1,000,
which includes an early tender premium. The consideration for each
US$1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered (and not
validly withdrawn) after the Early Tender Date and on or prior to
the Expiration Time and accepted for purchase will be US$970. Notes
will be accepted only in minimum denominations of US$200,000 and
integral multiples of US$1,000 in excess thereof. The Notes may be
subject to proration if the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) would cause the
Maximum Tender Amount to be exceeded.
The settlement for Notes validly tendered (and
not validly withdrawn) on or prior to the Early Tender Date and
accepted for purchase is expected to occur on April 24, 2024 (the
“Early Payment Date”) (or the Final Payment Date (defined below) if
Studio City Finance elects not to have an Early Payment Date). The
settlement for Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn)
following the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the Expiration
Time and accepted for purchase is expected to be May 8, 2024 (the
“Final Payment Date”). If the Tender Offer is fully subscribed as
of the Early Tender Date, holders who validly tender Notes
following the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes
accepted for payment unless Studio City Finance increases the
Maximum Tender Amount.
Studio City Finance has reserved the right to
extend, amend or terminate the Tender Offer at any time in its sole
discretion, including by increasing or decreasing the Maximum
Tender Amount. Studio City Finance is not required to extend the
Withdrawal Deadline in connection with any such increase or
decrease.
