By Susanna Moon

Chicago, July 17 – Investec Bank plc said investors had tendered £267,038,000 of its £575 million 9.625% subordinated notes due 2022.

Investec has decided to accept all of the tendered notes at a price of 121.513%, using the benchmark security rate of 0.824% and the purchase yield of 3.148%, according to a company announcement.

The offer remains contingent on financing.

As announced July 9, the issuer was offering to purchase up to £287.5 million of the notes until 11 a.m. ET on July 16.

Pricing was set using the 4% U.K. Treasury due March 2022 plus a purchase spread of 230 basis points.

Holders also will receive accrued interest.

Settlement is slated for July 24.

The company previously said it plans to issue sterling-denominated fixed-rate tier 2 reset callable subordinated notes.

Noteholders who subscribed for the new notes in addition to tendering in the offer will receive priority in the allocation of the new notes, the previous release noted.
