(NASDAQ: USCR) (the “Company” or “U.S. Concrete”) announced today that it proposes to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $200 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2020 (the “Notes”) to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will be senior secured obligations of the Company and will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the existing and future subsidiaries of the Company that guarantee obligations under its senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Facility”) or that guarantee certain other indebtedness of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries. The Notes and the guarantees will be secured by a first-priority lien on certain of the Company’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ assets and by a second-priority lien on the Company’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ assets that secure the Revolving Facility on a first-priority basis. The interest rate, offering price and other terms will be determined at the time of pricing of the offering. U.S. Concrete intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to repay all of the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Facility, to redeem or otherwise retire all of its outstanding 9.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2015, and for general corporate purposes. The Company has sent a conditional notice of optional redemption to the Trustee for its outstanding 9.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2015. The redemption is subject to certain conditions, including the consummation of this offering or another financing that provides net proceeds sufficient to redeem the 9.50% Senior Secured Notes due 2015 in full. If the conditions are not satisfied, then the notice of optional redemption will be rescinded. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration under the Securities Act or an applicable exemption from the NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
