LIMA, Perú, Nov. 14, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Nautilus Inkia Holdings SCS (f/k/a Nautilus Inkia Holdings LLC), Nautilus Distribution Holdings LLC and Nautilus Isthmus Holdings LLC (collectively, the “Issuers“) today announced that they have commenced a cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer“) for up to an amount of their outstanding 5.875% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes“) that would not result in the Aggregate Purchase Price (as defined below) exceeding $150,000,000 (the “Maximum Tender Amount“). In connection with the Tender Offer, the Issuers are also soliciting consents of the holders of the Notes (the “Consent Solicitation“) for the adoption of certain amendments (the “Proposed Amendments“) to the indenture governing the Notes (the “Indenture“). The Proposed Amendments require the consents (the “Requisite Consents“) of holders of a majority in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes. If the Requisite Consents are not obtained in connection with the Consent Solicitation, the Consent Solicitation may be terminated, and in such case, the Proposed Amendments to the Indenture will not become effective, the Third Supplemental Indenture (as defined in the Statement) will not be executed and the Tender Offer will be terminated. Holders who tender their Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer at or before the Early Tender Date (as defined below) will be deemed to have delivered consents in respect of such tendered Notes to the Proposed Amendments and to the execution and delivery of the Third Supplemental Indenture (as defined in the Statement), and will receive the Consent Payment (as defined below) as a component of the Early Tender Payment (as defined below) included in the Total Consideration (as defined below), even if a smaller principal amount is accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer due to proration. Holders may not deliver consents to the Proposed Amendments without also tendering their Notes.
The Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation are subject to certain conditions, as set forth in the offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement, dated November 14, 2022 (as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Statement“), including the Financing Condition (as defined in the Statement), the Third Supplemental Indenture Condition (as defined in the Statement) and the General Conditions (as defined in the Statement). Subject to applicable law, the Issuers may amend, modify or terminate the Tender Offer and/or the Consent Solicitation at any time in their sole discretion.
Information related to the Notes and the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation is listed in the table below.
Notes | CUSIP / ISIN Nos. | Outstanding | Tender Offer | Early Tender | Total |
5.875% | Rule 144A: 45721RAC7 | $372,728,000 | $910.00 | $50.00 | $960.00 |
(1) | As of the date of the Statement. |
(2) | The amount to be paid for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase (excluding Accrued Interest). Accrued Interest will be paid in addition to the Tender Offer Consideration or the Total Consideration, as applicable, on the applicable Settlement Date. |
(3) | The Consent Payment of $1.00 is the amount to be paid for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes for which consents are validly delivered (and not validly withdrawn). |
(4) | Holders that validly tender (and do not validly withdraw) their Notes and thereby validly deliver (and do not validly revoke) their consents at or prior to the Early Tender Date will be eligible to receive the Consent Payment in respect of such Notes as a component of the Early Tender Payment included in the Total Consideration, even if a smaller principal amount is accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer due to proration. |
(5) | The Total Consideration consists of the Tender Offer Consideration plus the Early Tender Payment (which includes the Consent Payment). |
We refer to (1) the aggregate amount that all holders are entitled to receive for (x) their Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and accepted for purchase by the Issuers, and (y) their consents that are validly delivered (and not validly revoked), in each case, at or prior to the Early Tender Date (as defined below); (2) the aggregate amount that all holders are entitled to receive for their Notes that are validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below) and accepted for purchase by the Issuers; (3) Accrued Interest; and (4) fees and expenses in connection with the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation as the “Aggregate Purchase Price“. The “Total Consideration” per $1,000 principal amount of Notes payable to holders who validly tender (and do not validly withdraw) their Notes and thereby deliver (and do not validly revoke) their consents to the Proposed Amendments on or prior to the Early Tender Date (as defined below) is $960.00. The Total Consideration payable under the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation includes an “Early Tender Payment” of $50.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which in turn includes a “Consent Payment” of $1.00 for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes. Holders will only be eligible to receive the Early Tender Payment (which includes the Consent Payment) for Notes that such holders have validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and consents they have validly delivered (and not validly revoked) at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2022, unless extended by the Issuers (the “Early Tender Date“). Holders who validly tender (and do not validly withdraw) their Notes after the Early Tender Date but on or prior to the Expiration Date (as defined below), and whose Notes are accepted for purchase, will be eligible to receive the “Tender Offer Consideration,” which is equal to the Total Consideration less the Early Tender Payment (which includes the Consent Payment). The Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 12, 2022, unless extended or earlier terminated by the Issuers in their sole discretion, subject to applicable law (such time and date, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the “Expiration Date”). Subject to the satisfaction or waiver by the Issuers of all conditions to the consummation of the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation, payment for (i) the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) and that are accepted for purchase and (ii) consents that are validly delivered (and not validly revoked), in each case, at or prior to the Early Tender Date is expected to be made on the “Early Settlement Date“, which is expected to be December 5, 2022, and payment for the Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) after the Early Tender Date but at or prior to the Expiration Date and that are accepted for purchase is expected to be made on the “Final Settlement Date“, which is expected to be December 14, 2022. The Total Consideration and the Tender Offer Consideration will be payable in cash.
If the aggregate amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) would result in an Aggregate Purchase Price that exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, then, subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, the Issuers will accept for purchase Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) on a prorated basis. Holders that validly tender their Notes and thereby deliver their consents at or prior to the Early Tender Date (and do not validly withdraw such Notes and therefore do not validly revoke the related consents) will be eligible to receive the Consent Payment in respect of such Notes, even if a smaller principal amount is accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer due to proration. Furthermore, if the Tender Offer is fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Date and the Issuers elect to have an Early Settlement Date, holders who validly tender Notes following the Early Tender Date will not have any of their Notes accepted for purchase.
Any holder that tenders Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date pursuant to the Tender Offer must also deliver a consent to the Proposed Amendments. Any holder that tenders Notes after the Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the Expiration Date, shall be deemed not to have delivered its consent, and therefore no Consent Payment shall be made after the Early Tender Date.
Holders will receive accrued and unpaid interest on all Notes tendered and accepted for payment in the Tender Offer from the last interest payment date up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date for the Tender Offer (such unpaid interest, together with additional amounts thereon, the “Accrued Interest“).
Notes may be withdrawn any time prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2022, unless extended by the Issuers (the “Withdrawal Date“).
The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer and the Consent Solicitation, as well as the Proposed Amendments, are described in the Statement. Holders are encouraged to read the Statement carefully when it becomes available.
