Hudbay Announces Offering of US$500 Million Aggregate Principal Amount of Senior Notes
September 09 2020 - 8:30AM
Hudbay Minerals Inc. (“Hudbay” or the “company”) (TSX,
NYSE:HBM) today announced that it is offering US$500
million aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the “New
Notes”). The interest rate and other terms of the New Notes will be
determined at pricing and are dependent upon market conditions and
other factors.
Hudbay plans to use the net proceeds from the
offering of the New Notes to refinance all of its outstanding
US$400 million aggregate principal amount of 7.250% senior
notes due 2023 (the “Existing Notes”), pay any related premium,
costs and expenses and for general corporate purposes.
The New Notes will not be registered under the
U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or
the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. The New Notes will
not be qualified by a prospectus in Canada. Unless they are
registered or qualified by a prospectus, the New Notes may be
offered only in transactions that are exempt from registration
under the Securities Act, prospectus qualification under Canadian
securities laws or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction.
In the United States, the New Notes will be offered, and sold, only
to persons reasonably believed to be “qualified institutional
buyers” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and
outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in compliance with
Regulation S under the Securities Act.
This press release is neither an offer to sell
nor the solicitation of an offer to buy the New Notes, the Existing
Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to
sell or solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the New
Notes, the Existing Notes or any other securities in any
jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption with
respect to the Existing Notes.
