By Angela McDaniels

The total consideration includes a $30 consent payment for each $1,000 principal amount of notes. The company said it received tenders and consents from holders of 100% of the notes before Oct. 21, the consent solicitation expiration.

The company solicited consents to amend the note indenture to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and some events of default.

The tender offer began on Sept. 8. The deadline was originally Oct. 6, but it was extended to Oct. 31, then to Nov. 20 and finally to Nov. 24.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (800 820-1853 or collect 212 538-0652) is the dealer manager and solicitation agent for the offer. D. F. King & Co. (800 431-9633) is the information agent.
