PRINCETON, N.J., March 7, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- TRAC Intermodal LLC (the "Company") today announced its proposed offering with TRAC Intermodal Corp. (together, the "Issuers") of $485 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2021 (the "Notes"). The Notes and the related note guarantees will be offered in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The precise timing, size and terms of the offering are subject to market conditions and other factors.
The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be used to redeem all of the $150 million currently outstanding aggregate principal amount of the 11.0% senior secured notes due 2019 issued by the Issuers and to pay accrued interest, premiums, fees and expenses related thereto. The excess net proceeds will be used to pay a cash dividend of approximately $325 million to the Company's ultimate shareholders. The foregoing does not constitute a notice of redemption for the Issuers' outstanding notes.
The Notes will be guaranteed by certain of the subsidiaries that guarantee the Company's senior secured credit facility (the "ABL Credit Facility") as well as by Interpool, Inc. d/b/a TRAC Intermodal ("TRAC Intermodal"), the borrower under the ABL Credit Facility and a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. The Notes and the note guarantees will be secured, subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens, by a second-priority lien on all of the tangible and intangible assets that secure the obligations of the Company and the guarantors under the ABL Credit Facility.
The Notes and the related note guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under, or an applicable exemption from, 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 the Notes or any other security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the Notes will be made only by means of a private offering circular.
