TYSONS, Va., May 02, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Park Hotels & Resorts Inc. (“Park”) (NYSE: PK) announced today that its subsidiaries, Park Intermediate Holdings LLC, a Delaware limited liability (the “Company”), PK Domestic Property LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, and PK Finance Co-Issuer Inc., a Delaware corporation (collectively, the “Issuers”), commenced a tender offer to purchase for cash (the “Tender Offer”), subject to certain terms and conditions, any and all of their outstanding 7.500% Senior Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), at the price set forth below.
The Tender Offer is scheduled to expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 13, 2024 (the “Expiration Time”), unless extended or earlier terminated by the Issuers. The Tender Offer is being made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase and related Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, each dated May 2, 2024 (together, the “Tender Offer Materials”), which set forth a more detailed description of the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer. Holders of the Notes are urged to carefully read the Tender Offer Materials before making any decision with respect to the Tender Offer.
The following table sets forth certain terms of the Tender Offer:
| Title of Security | CUSIP Numbers/ISINs: | Principal Amount Outstanding |
Tender Offer Consideration(1)(2) |
||
| 7.500% Senior Notes due 2025 |

____________
| (1) | Excludes accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Settlement Date (as defined below), which will be paid in addition to the Tender Offer Consideration (as defined below). |
| (2) | Per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted. |
Subject to the terms and conditions of the Tender Offer, holders of the Notes who validly tender and do not subsequently validly withdraw their Notes, or deliver a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, at or prior to the Expiration Time will be eligible to receive the tender offer consideration payable for each $1,000 principal amount of Notes specified in the table above (the “Tender Offer Consideration”).
The Issuers will purchase any Notes (i) that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn or (ii) with respect to which a properly completed and duly executed Notice of Guaranteed Delivery has been delivered (to the extent that such Notes are not delivered at or prior to the Expiration Time), in each case, at or prior to the Expiration Time, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the Tender Offer, promptly following the Expiration Time (the “Settlement Date”). The Settlement Date is currently expected to be May 16, 2024, assuming all conditions to the Tender Offer have been satisfied or waived. Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Settlement Date. For the avoidance of doubt, accrued interest will cease to accrue on the Settlement Date for all Notes accepted in the Tender Offer, including those tendered by the guaranteed delivery procedures set forth in the Tender Offer Materials.
The obligation of the Company to accept for purchase and to pay the Tender Offer Consideration and the accrued and unpaid interest on the tendered Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer is not subject to any minimum tender condition, but is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions described in the Tender Offer Materials, including the consummation of one or more debt financing transactions in an aggregate principal amount of at least $650.0 million on terms and conditions acceptable to the Issuers (the “Financing Condition”), in their sole discretion. The Tender Offer may be amended, extended, terminated or withdrawn.
The Issuers presently intend to redeem any Notes that remain outstanding after consummation of the Tender Offer, but are under no obligation to do so. This statement of intent shall not constitute a notice of redemption under the indenture governing the Notes.
The Issuers have retained Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to serve as the Dealer Manager and Global Bondholder Services Corporation to serve as the Tender and Information Agent for the Tender Offer.
