On January 9, 2013, HD Supply, Inc. (the “Company”) gave notice of conditional redemption pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of August 30, 2007, as supplemented (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors from time to time parties thereto, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee, that the Company has elected to redeem, subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions precedent, on February 8, 2013 or, if the specified conditions precedent are not satisfied on or prior to February 8, 2013, such later date (but not later than March 11, 2013 as may be determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion) as such conditions precedent are so satisfied (the “Redemption Date”), $888,926,664 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 13.5% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2015 (the “Notes”) under the Indenture, which represents all of the outstanding Notes.
The redemption price with respect to any redeemed Note will be equal to 103.375% of the principal amount of such Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest thereon to the Redemption Date. The redemption is subject to the satisfaction of specified conditions precedent, including, without limitation, consummation (as and when determined by the Company, and as and to the extent the Company will require, in each case in its sole and absolute discretion), on or prior to the Redemption Date of the issuance and/or borrowing of new indebtedness in an aggregate principal amount of $950 million (or such other amount as may be determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion) from one or more sources on terms and conditions satisfactory in all respects to the Company in its sole and absolute discretion. The Company will be entitled to delay, and may delay, the redemption of the Notes until such time as such conditions precedent are satisfied. Such redemption will not occur in the event that the conditions precedent have not been so satisfied by March 11, 2013.
This report does not constitute a notice of redemption under the Indenture nor an offer to tender for, or purchase, any Notes or any other security. There can be no assurances that the conditions precedent to the redemption will be satisfied or that the redemption will occur.
