New Issue: Brazil's Itau Unibanco prices $1.375 billion 5½% notes due 2022 at par

By Christine Van Dusen

Atlanta, July 31 - Brazil's Itau Unibanco Holding SA priced $1,375,000 of notes due Aug. 6, 2022 (Baa2//BBB) at par to yield 5½%, or Treasuries plus 399.6 basis points, a market source said.

The notes priced in line with talk, set at the mid- to high-5% area.

Itau originally priced $1.25 billion of the notes on Monday and then added a further $125 million as a result of the exercise of the "extended sale option" in the Asian market.

Itau, JPMorgan and Standard Chartered were the bookrunners for the Rule 144A and Regulation S deal.

Proceeds will be used for general corporate purposes.

Itau Unibanco is a lender based in Sao Paulo.
