GILLINGHAM, England, Sept. 8, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Delphi Automotive PLC (NYSE: DLPH), a leading global technology company serving the automotive sector, today announced the commencement of a $750 million private offering of senior notes due 2025 (the "Notes") by its subsidiary, Delphi Jersey Holdings PLC ("DPS"). DPS is the recently formed holding company for Delphi Automotive PLC's ("Delphi") Powertrain Systems segment which Delphi intends to separate from its current business by means of a spin-off to its shareholders.

Upon completion of the separation, DPS intends to use the proceeds from the offering, together with borrowings under a $750 million term loan as part of its credit facilities, to fund operating cash, pay taxes, fees and expenses related to the spin-off, and distribute a dividend to Delphi. Pending completion of the separation, proceeds of the offering will be deposited into escrow for the benefit of the holders of the notes.

The Notes are being offered for sale to qualified institutional buyers in an offering exempt from registration pursuant to Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
