MADISON, N.J., Feb. 25, 2016 /satPRnews.com/ -- Realogy Holdings Corp. (NYSE: RLGY) (the "Company") announced today that its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Realogy Group LLC ("Realogy Group"), together with a co-issuer, priced $250 million aggregate principal amount of 5.250% senior notes due 2021 (the "Notes") at the initial offering price of 100.25% of the principal amount in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes will be issued under the same indenture as the $300 million aggregate principal amount of Realogy Group's 5.250% senior notes due 2021 issued on November 21, 2014 (the "Existing 5.250% Senior Notes"). The Notes will have identical terms, other than the issue date, the issue price and the first interest payment date, and will constitute part of the same series as the Existing 5.250% Senior Notes. The Notes will have the same CUSIP numbers as the Existing 5.250% Senior Notes, except for the Notes sold pursuant to Regulation S which will, on the 40th day following the issue date of the Notes, have the same CUSIP numbers. The Notes that have the same CUSIP numbers as the Existing 5.250% Senior Notes are expected to be fungible with the Existing 5.250% Senior Notes. The closing of the offering is expected to occur on March 1, 2016, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Notes will be guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by each of Realogy Group's domestic subsidiaries (other than the co-issuer of the Notes) that is a guarantor under its senior secured credit facilities and its outstanding securities. The Notes will also be guaranteed by the Company on an unsecured senior subordinated basis. The Notes will be effectively subordinated to all of Realogy Group's existing and future senior secured debt, including its senior secured credit facilities, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to temporarily reduce outstanding borrowings under its revolving credit facility and for working capital purposes, prior to using such net proceeds to retire a portion of its outstanding 3.375% Senior Notes at maturity in May 2016.
The Notes and the related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes and the related guarantees will be offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, any securities, nor shall there be any sales of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135(c) under the Securities Act.
