On June 2, 2023, Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing the early tender results for the previously announced cash tender offer (the “Tender Offer”) to purchase up to $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 3.300% Senior Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) and that it has amended the Tender Offer by increasing the maximum aggregate principal amount of Notes that may be purchased in the Tender Offer to $650,000,000 (the “Tender Cap”). The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are set forth in the offer to purchase, dated May 18, 2023 (the “Offer to Purchase”).
As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 1, 2023 (the “Early Tender Deadline”), $676,243,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offer. The purchase of all of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the Tender Offer would cause the Company to purchase Notes with an aggregate principal amount in excess of the Tender Cap. Accordingly, the Notes will be purchased on a pro rata basis up to the Tender Cap in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase. Since the Tender Offer was fully subscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, the Company will not accept for purchase any Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender Deadline. The Tender Offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 16, 2023, unless extended or earlier terminated.
On June 2, 2023, the Company also issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Tender Offer and the Company’s acceptance of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Deadline on a pro rata basis up to the Tender Cap in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase.
Copies of the press releases announcing early tender results and pricing are attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and Exhibit 99.2, respectively, and are incorporated in this Item 8.01 by reference.
The information contained in this Current Report on Form 8-K, and any announcements related to the Tender Offer, shall not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to purchase, any securities in any jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
