SOUTHLAKE, Texas, Nov. 21, 2022 /PRNewswire/ — Sabre Corporation (“Sabre”) (Nasdaq: SABR) today announced that its wholly-owned subsidiary Sabre GLBL Inc. (“Sabre GLBL”) upsized and priced an offering of $555,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 11.250% senior secured notes due 2027 (the “Secured Notes”), an upsize of $20,000,000 over the amount previously announced. The sale of the Secured Notes is expected to close on December 6, 2022, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Secured Notes will pay interest semi-annually in arrears, at a rate of 11.250% per year, and will mature on December 15, 2027. The Secured Notes will be guaranteed by Sabre Holdings Corporation and each subsidiary that borrows under or guarantees Sabre GLBL’s senior secured credit facility. The Secured Notes and the note guarantees will be secured, subject to permitted liens, by a first-priority security interest in substantially all present and hereafter acquired property and assets of Sabre GLBL and the guarantors (other than certain excluded assets).
The net proceeds from the sales of the Secured Notes will be used for the repayment of approximately $536 million aggregate principal amount of debt under Sabre’s Term Loan B (scheduled to mature in 2024), plus accrued and unpaid interest and related fees and expenses. Sabre will incur no additional indebtedness in connection with the issuance of the Senior Notes, other than amounts covering the original issue discount (OID) and such interest, fees and expenses.
The Secured Notes and the related note guarantees have been offered in a private offering to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Secured Notes and the related note guarantees have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The Secured Notes and the related note guarantees may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.
This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Secured Notes or any other security and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which, or to any persons to whom, such offering, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offers of the Secured Notes were made only by means of a private offering circular. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
