and, together with Realogy Group, the “Issuers”), Realogy Intermediate Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and the Company’s direct, wholly-owned subsidiary (“Realogy Intermediate”), and the subsidiary guarantors named therein entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with the representative of the several initial purchasers named in Schedule A thereto, relating to the sale by the Issuers of $550 million aggregate principal amount of the Issuers’ 7.625% senior secured second lien notes due 2025 at par (the “Notes”). The aggregate size of the offering was upsized from $400 million to $550 million.The Notes will be issued in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and to persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Realogy Intermediate and each domestic subsidiary of the Company, other than certain excluded entities, that is a guarantor under its senior secured credit facilities and certain of its outstanding securities. The Notes will also be guaranteed by the Company, on an unsecured senior subordinated basis. The Notes will be secured by substantially the same collateral as the Company’s existing first lien obligations under its senior secured credit facilities on a second priority basis. Subject to customary closing conditions, the sale of the Notes is expected to close on or about June 16, 2020.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Issuers and the guarantors. In addition, the Issuers and the guarantors have agreed to indemnify the initial purchasers against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, or to contribute to payments the initial purchasers may be required to make in respect of those liabilities. Furthermore, the Issuers and the guarantors have agreed with the initial purchasers not to offer or sell any similar debt securities for a period of 60 days after the closing date without the prior written consent of the representative of the initial purchasers.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering, together with cash on hand, to redeem in full its outstanding 5.250% Senior Notes due 2021, and to pay related accrued interest, premium, fees and expenses.
