Repsol Oil & Gas Canada Inc. Announces Early Results of Consent Solicitations and Debt Tender Offers
(firmenpresse) - CALGARY, ALBERTA -- (Marketwired) -- 06/23/17 -- Repsol Oil & Gas Canada Inc. (formerly known as Talisman Energy Inc.), a Canadian-based upstream oil and gas company (the "Company"), announced today the early results of its previously announced solicitations of consents (the "Consent Solicitations") from holders of its outstanding
for proposed amendments (the "Proposed Amendments") to certain provisions of the indentures governing the Notes (the "Indentures"), and the early results of its tender offers to purchase for cash (the "Tender Offers" and each a "Tender Offer") any and all of the outstanding Notes.
The following table summarizes, with respect to each series of Notes, (1) the aggregate principal amount of Notes in respect of which consents were validly delivered without tendering the related Notes, (2) the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered (and in respect of which a consent was thereby validly delivered) and (3) the total of the aggregate principal amount of Notes in respect of which consents were validly delivered without tendering the related Notes or by validly tendering Notes, in each case as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 22, 2017 (the "Consent/Early Tender Deadline"). In accordance with the terms and conditions of the Consent Solicitations and Tender Offers, revocation rights with respect to the consents and withdrawal rights with respect to the Notes expired on 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 22, 2017. Accordingly, consents and Notes delivered and tendered in the past or future may not be revoked or withdrawn.
The consents received from holders of Notes of each series exceed the amount needed to adopt the Proposed Amendments to each of the Indentures. Accordingly, the Company, Repsol S.A., a sociedad anonima organized in Spain, and the relevant trustee under each Indenture will execute a supplemental indenture to each Indenture effecting the Proposed Amendments (each a "Supplemental Indenture" and collectively, the "Supplemental Indentures"). Each Supplemental Indenture will become operative upon payment of the applicable Consent Only Payment (as defined below) or Total Consideration (as defined below). Each Supplemental Indenture will amend the reporting covenant and eliminate the merger covenant in the relevant Indenture, as well as make certain other related changes.
Holders that validly delivered consents at or prior to the Consent/Early Tender Deadline without tendering the related Notes will receive the Consent Only Payment of U.S.$2.50 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes (the "Consent Only Payment") as to which they delivered (and did not revoke) such consents on the initial settlement date, which is expected to be June 27, 2017 (the "Initial Settlement Date").
Holders that validly tendered their Notes and thereby delivered the related consents at or prior to the Consent/Early Tender Deadline will receive in respect of Notes accepted for purchase the applicable Total Consideration of U.S.$1,087.50 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, U.S.$1,000.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2021 Notes, U.S.$1,000.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2037 Notes, U.S.$1,000.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2038 Notes, U.S.$955.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2042 Notes, U.S.$960.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2035 Notes and U.S.$1,135.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2027 Debentures (the "Total Consideration"), plus accrued and unpaid interest from the applicable last interest payment date to, but not including, the applicable settlement date ("Accrued Interest"), on the Initial Settlement Date. Such holders will not receive the Consent Only Payment.
Each Tender Offer remains open and is scheduled to expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on July 7, 2017, unless such Tender Offer is extended or earlier terminated by the Company in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law (such time and date with respect to each Tender Offer, as the same may be extended or earlier terminated, the "Expiration Time"). For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this press release, midnight on a particular day refers to the time one minute after 11:59 p.m. on such day. Holders that validly tender their Notes after the Consent/Early Tender Deadline but at or prior to the Expiration Time will be eligible to receive in respect of Notes accepted for purchase the applicable Tender Offer Consideration of U.S.$1,057.50 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2019 Notes, U.S.$970.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2021 Notes, U.S.$970.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2037 Notes, U.S.$970.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2038 Notes, U.S.$925.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2042 Notes, U.S.$930.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2035 Notes and U.S.$1,105.00 for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of 2027 Debentures, plus Accrued Interest, on the final settlement date, which is expected to be July 12, 2017. Such holders will not receive the Consent Only Payment. Holders that tender Notes will be automatically deemed to have delivered consents to the Proposed Amendments in respect of such Notes.
The Consent Solicitations and the Tender Offers are being made on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement and Offer to Purchase dated June 9, 2017 (the "Consent Solicitation Statement and Offer to Purchase"), and related consent and letter of transmittal.
Consummation of the Consent Solicitations and the Tender Offers are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Consent Solicitation Statement and Offer to Purchase. The Company may amend, extend or terminate the Consent Solicitations and the Tender Offers with respect to one or more series of Notes in its sole discretion, subject to applicable law.
This press release is not a solicitation of consents with respect to the Proposed Amendments or any Notes.

The Consent Solicitations and the Tender Offers are being made only pursuant to the Consent Solicitation Statement and Offer to Purchase and related consent and letter of transmittal, copies of which will be delivered to holders of the Notes.
