HC2 Holdings, Inc. announced the pricing of an offering of 8.500% senior secured notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) at an issue price of 100%. The size of the offering has been upsized from $300 million to $330 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes. The Notes will be senior secured obligations of the Company and will be guaranteed by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries. The offering of the Notes is expected to close on February 1, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions. In addition, the Company expects to close its previously announced convertible notes exchange on the same date, subject to customary closing conditions. The proceeds from the issuance of the Notes are expected to be used, together with the net cash proceeds of the Company’s previously announced sale of its majority-owned subsidiary Beyond6, Inc., to redeem in full HC2’s existing 11.500% senior secured notes, repay the outstanding indebtedness under its revolving credit agreement, pay related fees and expenses, and for general corporate purposes. The Notes and the New Convertible Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, any state securities laws 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. The Notes are being offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act, and the New Convertible Notes are expected to be issued in one or more private exchange transactions pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act.
