Aeroflex Incorporated Announces Debt Tender
PLAINVIEW, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Aeroflex Incorporated (“Aeroflex” or the “Company”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Aeroflex Holding Corp. (NYSE: ARX), announced today the commencement of a tender offer (the "Offer") and solicitation for consents (the "Consent Solicitation") for any and all of its outstanding 11.75% Senior Notes due 2015 (CUSIP No. 007768AD6) (the "Notes"), as described below.
The Offer will be funded with a portion of the proceeds from a proposed new term loan under a senior secured credit facility (the "Refinancing"). Accordingly, Aeroflex’s obligations under the Offer and Consent Solicitation, as amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Offer to Purchase”), are conditioned upon the successful completion of the Refinancing, as well as the satisfaction of certain other conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated April 25, 2011.
The Offer and Consent Solicitation are scheduled to expire at 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on May 20, 2011, unless extended or earlier terminated (the “Expiration Time”). Holders who tender Notes and deliver consents before 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on May 6, 2011 (the “Early Participation Time”) will, upon acceptance, receive the total consideration, which includes an early participation premium. Holders who tender Notes and deliver consents after the Early Participation Time, but before the Expiration Time, will, upon acceptance, receive the tender offer consideration but not the early participation premium. The Total Consideration for Notes validly tendered (and not withdrawn) pursuant to the Offer prior to the Early Participation Time and accepted for purchase will be equal to $1,088.07 per $1,000.00 principal amount of the Notes, which includes the early participation premium of $20.00.
To the extent the Offer and Consent Solicitation are not consummated, the total consideration, the early participation premium and the tender offer consideration, will not be paid in respect of any Notes tendered in connection with the Offer and the related consents delivered in connection with the Consent Solicitation will be deemed revoked. Tendered Notes may be withdrawn, and the related consents may be revoked, at any time prior to 12:00 Midnight, New York City time, on May 6, 2011 (as may be extended by the Company, the “Withdrawal Deadline”), but not thereafter. Holders who tender Notes and deliver consents after the Withdrawal Deadline but at or prior to the Expiration Time may not withdraw the Notes tendered or revoke the consents delivered pursuant to the Offer and Consent Solicitation.
The complete terms and conditions of the Offer and Consent Solicitation are set forth in the Offer to Purchase and related Consent and Letter of Transmittal, which have been sent to holders of the Notes. Holders are urged to read the applicable offer documents carefully before making any decision with respect to the Offer and Consent Solicitation.
