Key developments for CENTRAL GARDEN & PET CO (CENT)
Central Garden & Pet Co. announced that it has received tenders and consents from the holders of $135,182,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 90.1% of its outstanding $150,000,000 9-1/8% senior subordinated notes due 2013as of the expiration of the consent payment deadline, which was March 5, 2010, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time. This is pursuant to its previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation. On March 5, 2010, the company accepted for purchase and payment all of the Notes that were validly tendered at or prior to the Consent Deadline. Payment for the notes pursuant to the Early Settlement is expected to be made. Holders of notes who tendered their notes at or prior to the consent deadline will receive $1,015.21 for each $1,000 principal amount of the notes validly tendered (which includes the consent payment of $15.21 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes), plus any accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the Early Settlement Date. The consents received exceeded the number required to approve the proposed amendments to the indenture under which the notes were originally issued. Based on these consents, on March 8 2010, the company and the trustee under the Indenture entered into a supplemental indenture that eliminates substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain event of default provisions and modifies certain other provisions of the Indenture. The terms of the tender offer and consent solicitation for the notes are detailed in Central's Offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement dated February 22, 2010. Holders who tender their notes after the Consent Deadline will receive $1,000 per $1,000 in principal amount of the notes validly tendered. The tender offer is scheduled to expire at midnight, New York City time on March 19, 2010. Central intends to redeem any notes, which are currently callable, that remain outstanding after the expiration date of the tender offer on April 20, 2010 and to exercise its rights under the Indenture to satisfy and discharge the Indenture governing the Notes.
