Interval Leisure Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: IILG) ("ILG") announced today that
it has given an irrevocable Notice of Redemption for all of its
outstanding 9.5% Senior Notes due 2016 (the "Senior Notes"). The Senior
Notes, which have an outstanding principal balance of $300 million, will
be redeemed on September 4, 2012, at 100% of the principal amount plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date. ILG intends to fund
the redemption through the use of its $500 million revolving credit
facility and cash on hand. On or after the date of redemption, the
Senior Notes will no longer be deemed outstanding, interest will cease
to accrue thereon and all rights of the holder of the Senior Notes shall
cease to exist, except for the right to receive the redemption price.
The Bank of New York Mellon is the trustee for the Senior Notes and is
serving as the paying agent for this transaction. Copies of the Notice
of Redemption and additional information relating to the redemption of
the Senior Notes may be obtained from The Bank of New York Mellon Trust
Company, N.A., 111 Sanders Creek Parkway, East Syracuse, New York 13057,
attention: Bondholder Relations, telephone: (800) 254-2826.
ILG expects to report approximately $17.9 million in non-cash, pre-tax
charges associated with redemption of the Senior Notes in the third
quarter of 2012. These charges will result from the write-off of
unamortized issuance costs and acceleration of the remaining original
issue discount.
This press release is for informational purposes only and is not an
offer to purchase, or the solicitation of an offer to purchase, the
Senior Notes.
