Cinemark, Inc. Announces Early Settlement and Receipt of Requisite Consents in its Cash Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation for its 9¾% Senior Discount Notes due 2014
PLANO, Texas - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Cinemark, Inc. (NYSE: CNK)
announced today that, pursuant to its previously announced cash tender
offer and consent solicitation (the "Offer" ) for any and all of its 9¾%
Senior Discount Notes due 2014 (the "Notes" ), holders of $402,458,768
principal amount at maturity of the outstanding $419,403,000 principal
amount at maturity, representing 95.96 % of the outstanding Notes, had
validly tendered and not withdrawn their Notes and delivered the related
consents at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 26, 2009
(the "Consent Date" ). The Company also announced that it has accepted
for purchase and payment (the "Early Settlement" ) all of the Notes that
were validly tendered at or prior to the Consent Date. Payment for the
Notes pursuant to the Early Settlement was made today (the "Early
Settlement Date" ). Holders of Notes who tendered their Notes at or prior
to the Consent Date received the total consideration equal to $1,048.75
for each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the Notes validly
tendered, which includes the consent payment of $30.00 per $1,000
principal amount at maturity of Notes, plus any accrued and unpaid
interest up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date.
In addition, as a result of the tender and consents made at or prior to
the Consent Date, the Company has received the requisite consents to
execute a supplemental indenture (the "Supplemental Indenture" ) to the
Indenture, dated as of March 31, 2004, pursuant to which the Notes were
issued (the "Indenture" ), implementing the proposed amendments relating
to the Notes as described in the Offer to Purchase dated June 15, 2009
(the "Offer to Purchase" ). The Company entered into the Supplemental
Indenture today and the amendments are currently operative. As detailed
in the Offer to Purchase, the Supplemental Indenture eliminates
substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain event of
default provisions contained in the Indenture.
The Offer is scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on
July 13, 2009, unless extended (the "Expiration Date" ). Holders of Notes
who tender their Notes after the Consent Date, but at or prior to the
Expiration Date, will receive, promptly after acceptance by the Company,
$1,018.75 for each $1,000 principal amount at maturity of the Notes
validly tendered, plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not
including, the Expiration Date and such holders will not have the right
to withdraw the tendered Notes. Any Notes not tendered and purchased
pursuant to the Offer will remain outstanding and the holders thereof
will be subject to the terms of the Supplemental Indenture even though
they did not consent to the amendments.
The Company has retained Barclays Capital Inc. to serve as sole Dealer
Manager and Solicitation Agent and D.F. King & Co., Inc. to serve as
Information Agent and Tender Agent for the Offer and consent
solicitation. Requests for documents may be directed to D.F. King & Co.,
