Includes the Early Participation Premium for Spirit Notes validly tendered prior to the Early Consent Date described below and not |
In connection with the exchange offers, Realty Income is also soliciting consents from holders of the Spirit Notes to amend the indenture governing the Spirit Notes to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants in the indenture (the "Proposed Amendments"). If the Proposed Amendments are adopted, the Spirit Notes will be governed by the amended indenture. Holders of the Spirit Notes under the amended indenture will no longer receive annual, quarterly and other reports from Spirit, and will no longer be entitled to the benefits of various covenants and other provisions in the indenture and certain other provisions.
The exchange offers and consent solicitations (together, the "Exchange Offers") commenced on December 19, 2023 and expire immediately following 5:00 p.m.,
Each Realty Note will have the same maturity date, accrue interest at the same annual interest rate, have the same interest payment dates, and same redemption terms as the Spirit Note for which it is exchanged. Each Realty Note received in exchange for the corresponding Spirit Note will accrue interest from (and including) the most recent date to which interest has been paid on such Spirit Note; provided, that interest will only accrue with respect to the aggregate principal amount of the Realty Note received, which may be less than the principal amount of the Spirit Note tendered for exchange. Except as otherwise set forth in the Prospectus (as defined below), payment will not be received for accrued and unpaid interest on the Spirit Note exchanged at the time of the exchange.
The Realty Notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Realty Income and will rank equally in right of payment with all other existing and future senior indebtedness of Realty Income. The Realty Notes will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of Realty Income's existing and future secured indebtedness (to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness) and structurally subordinated to all obligations of Realty Income's subsidiaries with respect to the assets of such subsidiaries, other than any subsidiaries that may guarantee the Realty Notes in the future.
The consummation of the Exchange Offers is subject to, and conditional upon, the satisfaction or waiver (other than the waiver of the condition requiring consummation of the Merger (as defined in the Prospectus)) of the conditions set forth in Realty Income's preliminary prospectus, dated as of December 19, 2023 (the "Prospectus"), including, among other things, (i) the consummation of the Merger, which is currently expected to close in the first quarter of 2024 subject to customary closing conditions and (ii) receipt of valid consents to the proposed amendments from the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of each series of the Spirit Notes, voting as separate series. Tendered Spirit Notes may be validly withdrawn at any time prior to the Expiration Date. Consents to the Proposed Amendments may be revoked at any time prior to the Early Consent Date, but may not be revoked at any time thereafter. Realty Income may terminate or withdraw the Exchange Offers at any time for any reason.
The closing of the Merger is not conditioned upon the completion of the Exchange Offers.
