NEW YORK, June 5, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- SiriusXM announced today that its subsidiary, Sirius XM Radio Inc., priced an offering of $1.250 billion of 5.50% Senior Notes due 2029. The sale of the notes is expected to be consummated on or about June 7, 2019, subject to customary closing conditions.
The notes are to be sold to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and non-U.S. persons outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S of the Securities Act.
The notes will bear interest at an annual rate of 5.50%. The price to investors will be 100% of the principal amount of the notes. The company will receive gross proceeds of $1.250 billion from the sale of the notes before deducting the initial purchasers' commissions and estimated offering fees and expenses.
The company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering initially to repay the borrowings outstanding under its $1,750 million Senior Secured Revolving Credit Facility due 2023 and for general corporate purposes, which may include the funding of share repurchases by Holdings and the repurchase, redemption, defeasance, tender or repayment of the Issuer's other outstanding indebtedness, in each case, from time to time and as market conditions permit. Balances outstanding under the Credit Facility fluctuate as our needs dictate.
The securities have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration, except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy any of these securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
