Inmarsat again extends consent solicitation
New York, May 16 - Inmarsat Group Ltd. said it has extended its solicitation of consents from holders of the $477.5 million of 7 5/8% senior notes due 2012 issued by Inmarsat Finance plc and the 10 3/8% senior discount notes due 2012 issued by Inmarsat Finance II plc.
The expiration date is now 5 p.m. ET on May 17 from 5 p.m. ET on May 13.
At its previous announcement on May 10, Inmarsat increased the consent payment on offer and extended the expiration from 5 p.m. ET on May 11.
The consent fee is now $50 per $1,000 for both series of notes, up from $20 for the 7 5/8% notes and $25 for the 10 3/8% notes.
The London-based satellite operator announced the solicitation on April 20, saying it was to amend the note indenture to allow a possible public offering of ordinary shares by Inmarsat Group Holdings Ltd. and the expected dividend policy.
Consents are required from holders of at least a majority of each series of notes.
Inmarsat said that on closing of the equity offering it would redeem 35% of the 7 5/8% notes at a price of 107.625.
The solicitation was previously extended on the original terms on May 5.
Credit Suisse First Boston is solicitation agent.
