CHARLOTTE, N.C., June 17,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Sealed Air Corporation ("SEE")
(NYSE: SEE) today announced, together with Sealed Air Corporation
(US) (together with SEE, the "Issuers"), that the Issuers commenced
an offering of senior notes due 2032 (the "Notes"). The Notes will
be jointly and severally, and irrevocably and unconditionally,
guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of SEE's existing
and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its
senior secured credit facilities, subject to release under certain
circumstances, although, for purposes of this offering, Sealed Air
Corporation (US) is a co-issuer and not a guarantor.
The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of
the Notes, (i) to repurchase any or all of SEE's outstanding 5.500%
senior notes due 2025 (the "2025 Notes") pursuant to the tender
offer commenced by SEE today and to pay related premiums, fees and
expenses in connection therewith, and (ii) to the extent of any
remaining proceeds after giving effect to the foregoing
transaction, for general corporate purposes. The tender offer is
conditioned upon, among other things, the completion of the
offering of the Notes; however, the closing of the offering of the
Notes is not conditioned on the consummation of the tender offer.
If SEE purchases less than the full aggregate principal amount of
the outstanding 2025 Notes, SEE intends to satisfy and discharge
any remaining 2025 Notes in accordance with the terms of the
indenture governing the 2025 Notes.
The Notes and related guarantees will be offered only to
qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to non-U.S.
persons in transactions outside the
United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act. The
Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and, unless
so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an
applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the
registration requirements of the Securities Act and other
applicable securities laws.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the
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. This press release
does not constitute an offer to purchase the 2025 Notes or a notice
of satisfaction and discharge with respect to the 2025 Notes.
