Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 29, 2009, Six Flags, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it had elected to extend the minimum tender condition from 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 28, 2009 to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 12, 2009 (the “New Minimum Tender Deadline”) for the exchange offers for its 8 7/8% Senior Notes due 2010 (the “SFI 2010 Notes”), 9 3/4% Senior Notes due 2013 (the “SFI 2013 Notes”), 9 5/8% Senior Notes due 2014 (the “SFI 2014 Notes” and together with the SFI 2010 Notes and the SFI 2013 Notes, the “SFI Notes”) and 4.50% Convertible Notes due 2015 (the “Convertible Notes”). As a result of the extension, it is now a condition of each of the exchange offers that at least 95% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of each of the SFI Notes are validly tendered for exchange and not revoked by the New Minimum Tender Deadline, such tenders of SFI Notes being irrevocable thereafter, and that at least 95% of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes are validly tendered for exchange and not revoked by the New Minimum Tender Deadline and that holders of such Convertible Notes do not withdraw their Convertible Notes on or prior to the Expiration Date on 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 25, 2009, unless extended.
A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The press release contains forward-looking statements and includes cautionary statements identifying important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated.
