(“OI Europe”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of OI Group, intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, in a private offering $310 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2023, to be guaranteed by OI Group and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of OI Group that are guarantors under OI Group’s credit agreement. A copy of the Press Release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report.

OI Europe’s obligations under the senior notes will be unsecured and guaranteed on a joint and several basis by OI Group and certain U.S. domestic subsidiaries of OI Group that are guarantors under OI Group’s credit agreement. The senior notes will be issued pursuant to an indenture that will contain covenants which, among other things, restrict the ability of OI Group and its subsidiaries to incur liens, engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of OI Group’s assets.

The senior notes and the guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or applicable state securities laws, and will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. Unless so registered, the senior notes and the guarantees may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Prospective purchasers that are qualified institutional buyers are hereby notified that the seller of the senior notes may be relying on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A.

The information contained in this Item 7.01 is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the senior notes or the guarantees, nor shall there be any sale of the senior notes and the guarantees in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state.

The information contained in this Item 7.01 is being furnished and shall not be deemed “filed” with the Securities and Exchange Commission for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section or Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act and such information shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into any registration statement or other document filed pursuant to the Securities Act or the Exchange Act.
