PAR PACIFIC HOLDINGS ANNOUNCES PRIVATE OFFERING OF
$100 MILLION OF SENIOR SECURED NOTES DUE 2026
HOUSTON, May 27, 2020 – Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: PARR) (“Par Pacific” or the “Company”) today announced that Par Petroleum, LLC (“Par Petroleum”) and Par Petroleum Finance Corp. (“Finance Corp.” and together with Par Petroleum, the “Issuers”), both wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company, intend to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $100 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2026 (the “Notes”) through a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A and to certain persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S, each under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”).
The Notes will be secured, senior obligations of the Issuers, and interest will be payable semi-annually in arrears. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Par Petroleum’s existing and certain future domestic restricted subsidiaries (excluding Finance Corp.) and on a senior unsecured basis only as to the payment of principal and interest by the Company. The Notes will be secured on a pari passu basis with the same collateral that secures the Issuers’ existing 7.750% Senior Secured Notes due 2025 and the Issuers’ existing Term Loan B facility, which consists of first-priority security interests in substantially all of the assets of the Issuers and the subsidiary guarantors, other than assets constituting collateral for the supply and offtake agreements with J. Aron & Company LLC, assets constituting collateral for the asset-based secured revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., assets constituting collateral for the intermediation arrangement with Merrill Lynch Commodities, Inc. and certain excluded properties.
The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds of the proposed offering for general corporate purposes.
Neither the Notes nor the related guarantees have been, or will be, registered under the Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
This news release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
