08 August 2014 - 10:31AM
Business Wire
QVC, Inc. announced today the pricing of $600 million principal
amount of new 4.45% senior secured notes due 2025 and $400 million
principal amount of new 5.45% senior secured notes due 2034
(collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes will be secured by a
first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same
collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness and
certain future indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offering
will be used for the redemption of QVC’s 7.50% senior secured notes
due October 2019 and for working capital and other general
corporate purposes. The offering is expected to close on or about
August 21, 2014, subject to customary closing conditions. QVC, Inc.
is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation
(Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB, LVNTA, LVNTB).
QVC will make the offering pursuant to an exemption under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The
initial purchasers will offer the Notes only to Qualified
Institutional Buyers as permitted under Rule 144A of the Securities
Act, or outside the United States to certain persons in reliance on
Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will not be
registered under the Securities Act and may not be sold in the
United States absent registration or an exemption from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act.
In connection with the offering of the Notes, QVC will agree,
subject to certain conditions, to file a registration statement
relating to a registered offer to exchange the Notes for new
registered notes having substantially identical terms as the
Notes.
This press release is for informational purposes only and does
not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to
buy the offered Notes, nor shall there be any sales of Notes 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.
