By Jennifer Chiou

New York, May 17 - Neff Rental LLC and Neff Finance Corp. announced that they received tenders and consents from holders of all of their $245 million of 11¼% second priority senior secured notes due 2012 and $80 million of 13% senior subordinated notes due 2013 at the early deadline of 5 p.m. ET on May 17.

In addition the tender was extended and will now end at 5 p.m. ET on June 6, pushed back from midnight ET on June 1.

Pricing will be set at 2 p.m. ET on May 23. In each case, pricing will be set using a spread of 50 basis points over a reference Treasury security.

For the 11¼% notes, the payment per $1,000 principal amount will be based on 50 bps over the 4 7/8% U.S. Treasury note due May 15, 2009 while for the 13% notes the payment per $1,000 principal amount will be based on 50 bps over the 3 5/8% U.S. Treasury note due June 30, 2007.
