Constellation Brands To Redeem $650 million 4.625% Senior Notes Due 2023
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
VICTOR, N.Y., Feb. 15, 2013 - Constellation Brands, Inc., (NYSE: STZ and STZ.B)
announced today it will redeem its $650 million 4.625% Senior Notes due 2023.
The proceeds of these notes have been held in escrow since their issuance, and
these notes are subject to a special mandatory redemption under certain
circumstances. Based on the differences between the original Crown Imports
acquisition and the recently announced revised agreement for Constellation's
acquisition of the complete U.S. business of Grupo Modelo, the company has
determined that the conditions for the release of proceeds cannot be satisfied.
Constellation will give notice on February 19, 2013, to the escrow agent to
release the note proceeds to the paying agent for purposes of effecting the
special mandatory redemption. As a result, these notes will be redeemed on
February 20, 2013, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of these notes plus accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding February
20, 2013.
