Tacoma, Wash., July 11 – InterCement Participacoes SA began a tender offer for the $670,474,000 of outstanding 5¾% senior notes due 2024 issued by Cimpor Financial Operations BV and guaranteed by InterCement and InterCement Brasil SA, according to a company news release.

InterCement is also soliciting consents to amendments that would eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and some events of default in the indenture governing the notes.

The tender offer and consent solicitation will expire at 11:59 p.m. ET on Aug. 5.

The company is offering $805 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes. This includes an early participation payment equal to $30 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered with consents by 5 p.m. ET on July 22, the early tender date.

Holders will also receive accrued interest up to but excluding the applicable settlement date. The early settlement date is expected to be within three business days of the early tender date, and the final settlement date is expected to be within three business days of the expiration date.

The proposed amendments require the consents of holders of a majority of the outstanding notes (excluding any notes held by InterCement or its affiliates).

The tender offer is not conditioned on the receipt of the needed consents.
