Uniti Group Inc. Announces Pricing of Senior Secured Notes Offering - Seite 2

The issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the notes for general corporate purposes, which may include funding a portion of the cash consideration payable in connection with the Company’s previously announced merger with Windstream. Closing of the Company’s merger with Windstream will occur, if it occurs, after the closing of this offering and is subject to various closing conditions. Upon the issuance of the notes, the commitments under the previously announced $300,000,000 bridge facility under the commitment letter entered into with certain lenders in connection with the Company’s merger with Windstream will be reduced to zero.

The notes and the additional notes, if any, will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act or any applicable state securities laws. The notes were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A under the Securities Act and outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
