GIBSON ENERGY INC. ANNOUNCES PRICING OF SENIOR NOTES
Gibson Energy Inc. has agreed to issue and sell $500-million
(U.S.) principal amount of 6.75-per-cent senior unsecured notes due July 15, 2021, and $250-million principal amount of 7.00-per-cent senior
unsecured notes due July 15, 2020. The U.S. tranche will be issued at a price of 98.476 per cent,
resulting in a yield to maturity of 7.00 per cent per annum, and will be
payable semi-annually in arrears beginning Jan. 15, 2014. The Canadian
tranche will be issued at a price of 98.633 per cent, resulting in a yield to
maturity of 7.25 per cent per annum, and will be payable semi-annually in
arrears beginning Jan. 15, 2014. The offering is expected to close
on June 28, 2013, subject to customary closing conditions.
Gibson intends to use the anticipated net proceeds from the offering to
repay all of the loans outstanding under its existing senior secured
first lien credit facility, with the remaining proceeds to be used for
general corporate purposes.
Concurrently with the closing of the offering, Gibson expects to enter
into a new $500-million senior secured revolving credit facility, which will replace Gibson's
existing $375-million (U.S.) senior secured revolving credit facility. The
new revolving credit facility is expected to be undrawn at the
completion of the offering (except for the continuation of outstanding
letters of credit).
We seek Safe Harbor.
