Sunoco LP Announces Upsizing and Pricing of Private Offering of Senior Notes
DALLAS, Nov. 9, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Sunoco LP (NYSE: SUN) ("Sunoco") today announced that it has priced at 100% an upsized private offering (the "offering") of $800 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.500% senior notes due 2029 (the "notes"). Sunoco Finance Corp., a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Sunoco, will serve as co-issuer of the notes. The sale of the notes is expected to settle on November 24, 2020, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Sunoco intends to use the net proceeds from the offering and borrowings under its revolving credit facility to fund the separately announced tender offer for any and all of its outstanding 4.875% senior notes due 2023 (the "2023 notes") and, if applicable, a partial redemption of the 2023 notes.
The offering of the notes has not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, the notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Sunoco plans to offer and sell the notes only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.
This news release is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the notes or any other securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful, nor does it constitute a notice of redemption under the optional redemption provisions of the indenture governing the 2023 notes.
