Employers Holdings to offer $150 million 10-year senior notes

By Paul A. Harris

St. Louis, May 2 - Employers Holdings, Inc., plans to raise $150 million via a Rule 144A placement of 10-year senior notes, according to documents filed on Friday with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The pro forma interest rate on the notes is 8%.

A spokesman for the company declined to furnish any other information when contacted late Friday afternoon by Prospect News.

Proceeds from the notes will be used to partially fund the $193.9 million acquisition of AmCOMP Inc., which is expected to close during the second quarter of 2008.

Employers Holdings is a Reno, Nev.-based provider of worker compensation insurance to U.S. small businesses.
