BOSTON, Oct. 30, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Iron Mountain Incorporated (NYSE: IRM) (the "Company"), the storage and information management company, today announced a proposed offering by way of a private placement of a total of £400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of GBP senior notes due 2025 (the "Notes") by its wholly owned subsidiary, Iron Mountain (UK) PLC ("IMUK"). The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company and the Company's subsidiaries that guarantee each series of its existing notes.  The exact terms of the Notes and timing of the offering will depend upon market conditions and other factors.

The net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility, are intended to be used to fund the redemption of all of the outstanding £400.0 in aggregate principal amount of Iron Mountain Europe PLC's 6.125% GBP Senior Notes due 2022 (the "IME Notes"). The redemption of the IME Notes will be conditioned upon the completion of the offering of the Notes.

The Notes will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or under any state securities law, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes are being offered only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A and outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. This announcement does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the IME Notes. The formal notice of redemption will be provided separately in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the IME Notes.

No action has been or will be taken in any jurisdiction by the Company or IMUK in relation to the Notes that would permit a public offering of Notes in any country or jurisdiction where action for that purpose would be required.  The proposed offering comprises an offer of securities to the public for the purposes of the Prospectus Directive.  However, no action is required to be taken under the Prospectus Directive in connection with such offer as the minimum denomination of the Notes will be £100,000.
