BAUSCH HEALTH ANNOUNCES PRICING OF PRIVATE OFFERING OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES

LAVAL, Quebec, Jan. 27, 2022 — Bausch Health Companies Inc. (NYSE/TSX: BHC) (“Bausch Health” or the “Company”) announced today that it has priced its previously announced offering of $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior secured notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be sold to investors at a price of 100.000% of the principal amount thereof.

As previously announced, the Company is also seeking to refinance its existing credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement” and such refinancing, the “Credit Agreement Refinancing”). The refinanced Credit Agreement is expected to consist of approximately $2.5 billion of term B loans (the “New Term B Loans”) and a $975 million revolving credit facility. The Credit Agreement Refinancing is expected to occur upon completion of the initial public offering (“IPO”) of Bausch + Lomb Corporation (“Bausch + Lomb” and such offering, the “Bausch + Lomb IPO”) and a related debt financing by Bausch + Lomb (the “Bausch + Lomb Debt Financing”).

The proceeds from the offering of the Notes, along with the expected proceeds from the New Term B Loans, the Bausch + Lomb IPO and the repayment of an intercompany note owed to us by Bausch + Lomb (which repayment is expected to be funded by the Bausch + Lomb Debt Financing), are expected to be used to fund the Company’s previously announced conditional redemption in full of its outstanding 6.125% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “6.125% Notes due 2025”), refinance all of the existing Term B Loans, fund the Company’s previously announced conditional partial redemption of its outstanding 9.000% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “9.000% Notes due 2025 and, collectively with the 6.125% Senior Notes due 2025, the “Existing Notes”) and to pay related fees, premiums and expenses.

The Notes will be guaranteed by each of the Company’s subsidiaries that are guarantors under the Credit Agreement and existing senior notes and will be secured on a first priority basis by liens on the assets that secure the Credit Agreement and existing senior secured notes.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities law and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered in the United States only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the public by prospectus under applicable Canadian securities laws and, accordingly, any offer and sale of the Notes in Canada will be made on a basis, which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of such securities laws.

The redemption of the 6.125% Notes due 2025 is conditioned upon the completion of the Credit Agreement Refinancing (the “6.125% Notes Condition”). The Company intends to discharge the indenture governing the 6.125% Notes due 2025 concurrently with satisfying such 6.125% Notes Condition. The partial redemption of the 9.000% Notes due 2025 is conditioned upon the receipt of aggregate gross proceeds from the Bausch + Lomb IPO, the Bausch + Lomb Debt Financing, the Credit Agreement Refinancing and the offering of the Notes of at least $7.0 billion (the “9.000% Notes Condition” and, together with the 6.125% Notes Condition, the “Conditions”). This announcement does not constitute an offer to purchase or the solicitation of an offer to sell the Existing Notes.

This news release is being issued pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act and shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
