Mexico’s Unifin claims early tenders for 85.02% of 6¼% notes due 2019

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Sept. 22 – Mexico’s Unifin Financiera, SAB de CV, Sofom ENR said investors had tendered $311,672,000, or 85.02%, of its 6¼% senior notes due 2019 as of 5 p.m. ET on Sept. 21, the early tender date.

The consents received so far are more than enough to approve the proposed amendments to the notes indenture, according to a company update.

The company is soliciting consents to eliminate its obligation to comply with substantially all of the covenants and some events of default and to shorten the minimum notice period required for a redemption to six business days from 30 days.

As announced Sept. 9, the total purchase price is $1,050 for each $1,000 principal amount of notes tendered by the early tender deadline.

The total amount per $1,000 principal amount consists of the tender offer payment of $1,020 and an early tender payment of $30.

Holders who tender after the early deadline will receive the total amount less the early premium.

The issuer also will pay accrued interest.

The tender offer will continue until midnight ET on Oct. 5.

Tendered notes may no longer be withdrawn as of the early deadline.

Holders who tender their notes must deliver consents, and holders may not give consents without tendering the related notes.

To amend the notes, the company needed to secure consents for at least a majority of the outstanding notes.

The early settlement date is expected to be Sept. 27.

Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (800 820-1653), Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (212 723-6106 or 800 558-3745) and UBS Securities LLC (203 719-4210 or 888 719-4210) are the dealer managers and solicitation agents. D.F. King & Co., Inc. (888 628-1041, 212 269-5550 or unifin@dfking.com) is the tender agent and information agent.

Unifin is a Mexican leasing company operating as a non-banking financial services company based in Mexico City.
