On September 18, 2014, HealthSouth Corporation (“HealthSouth” or the “Company”) completed its registered public offering of an additional $175 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.75% Senior Notes due November 1, 2024 (the “Additional 2024 Notes”) at a public offering price of 103.625% of the principal amount. The terms of the Additional 2024 Notes are governed by the previously executed Indenture, dated as of December 1, 2009 (the “Base Indenture”), between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as successor to The Bank of Nova Scotia Trust Company of New York, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated September 11, 2012 (the “2024 Supplemental Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein, and the Trustee. The sale of the Additional 2024 Notes was registered pursuant to a Registration Statement (No. 333-183740) on Form S-3 filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The Additional 2024 Notes will:
| • | mature on November 1, 2024 and bear interest at 5.75% per annum, payable semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1, beginning on November 1, 2014; |
| • | be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior, unsecured basis by all of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that guarantee borrowings under its credit agreement and other capital markets debt; |
| • | rank, along with the related guarantees, equal in right of payment to the Company’s current and future senior debt and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated debt; and |
| • | be effectively subordinated to the Company’s current and future secured debt, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt, and any liabilities of the Company’s non-guarantor subsidiaries. |
The indenture relating to the Additional 2024 Notes contains restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends on, or redeem or repurchase, its capital stock; make investments; and merge, consolidate, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets.
The descriptions of the provisions of the Base Indenture and the 2024 Supplemental Indenture are summary in nature and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the provisions of the definitive agreements. The Base Indenture was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2009, and is incorporated herein by reference. The 2024 Supplemental Indenture, which includes the form of Additional 2024 Notes, was filed on September 11, 2012 as Exhibit 4.2 to Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
