The Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will bear interest at a rate of 5.00% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on
If the Company undergoes certain fundamental changes, holders of the Notes may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or part of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date. In addition, if a make-whole fundamental change occurs prior to the maturity date, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate for holders who convert Notes in connection with such make-whole fundamental change.
The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the Offering will be approximately
In connection with the pricing of the Notes, the Company entered into privately negotiated capped call transactions with certain of the initial purchasers and/or their respective affiliates and/or other financial institutions (the 'capped call counterparties'). The capped call transactions are expected generally to reduce the potential dilution to the Company's common stock upon any conversion of Notes and/or offset any cash payments the Company is required to make in excess of the principal amount of such converted Notes, as the case may be, with such reduction and/or offset subject to a cap. The cap price of the capped call transactions will initially be
In connection with establishing their initial hedges of the capped call transactions, the capped call counterparties have advised the Company that they and/or their respective affiliates expect to enter into various derivative transactions with respect to the Company's common stock and/or purchase shares of the Company's common stock concurrently with or shortly after the pricing of the Notes. This activity could increase (or reduce the size of any decrease in) the market price of the Company's common stock or the Notes at that time.
In addition, the capped call counterparties and/or their respective affiliates may modify their hedge positions by entering into or unwinding various derivative transactions with respect to the Company's common stock and/or purchasing or selling the Company's common stock or other securities of the Company in secondary market transactions following the pricing of the Notes and prior to the maturity of the Notes. This activity could also cause or avoid an increase or a decrease in the market price of the Company's common stock or the Notes, which could affect the ability of noteholders to convert the Notes, and, to the extent the activity occurs following conversion or during any observation period related to a conversion of the Notes, it could affect the number of shares of the Company's common stock and value of the consideration that noteholders will receive upon conversion of the Notes.
The Notes and any shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes 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
This press release does not and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any Notes or shares of the Company's common stock, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of notes or such common stock in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction. The offering may be made only by means of an offering memorandum.
