Notes Offering by HD Supply, Inc.
On March 28, 2016, HD Supply Holdings, Inc. issued a press release announcing that its indirect wholly-owned subsidiary, HD Supply, Inc. (HD Supply), has commenced an offering of senior notes (the Notes) in transactions that are exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act). A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report. HD Supply intends to use the proceeds from the offering, together with available cash, to redeem all of its outstanding 11.50% Senior Notes due 2020 totaling $1,000 million in aggregate principal amount in accordance with the terms of HD Supplys notice of conditional full redemption as described below, and to pay related fees and expenses. The redemption date is expected to be April 27, 2016. This report does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
Notice of Conditional Redemption
On March 28, 2016, HD Supply, Inc. gave notice of conditional full redemption pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of October 15, 2012, as supplemented, among HD Supply, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee, and the subsidiary guarantors party thereto, that HD Supply has elected to redeem all of its outstanding 11.50% Senior Notes due 2020 totaling $1,000 million in aggregate principal amount, subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions precedent set forth in the redemption notice, including consummation on or prior to the redemption date of the issuance or borrowing of new indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $1,000 million (or such other amount as may be determined by HD Supply).
The redemption price with respect to any redeemed note will be equal to 100.000% of the principal amount of such note, plus the Applicable Premium (calculated in accordance with the definition thereof in the Indenture), plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date.
This report does not constitute a notice of redemption under the Indenture nor an offer to tender for, or purchase, any notes or any other security. There can be no assurances that the conditions precedent to the redemption will be satisfied or that the redemption will occur.
In accordance with General Instruction B.2 of Form 8-K, the information in this Item 7.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, including Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto, shall not be deemed filed for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
