Digicel Group Limited Amends Denominations of 8.250% Senior Notes Due 2020 and 7.125% Senior Notes Due 2022 to Facilitate Participation in Exchange OffersKINGSTON, Jamaica, December 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Digicel Group Limited ("Digicel") announced today that, to facilitate participation in the previously announced Exchange Offers (as defined in the Offering Memorandum), the Exchange Offers are being amended such that Digicel's outstanding 8.250% Senior Notes due 2020 (the "Existing 2020 Notes") and its outstanding 7.125% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "Existing 2022 Notes" and, together with the Existing 2020 Notes, the "Existing DGL Notes") may be tendered in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. This change in the denominations of the Existing DGL Notes will be effective until settlement (or termination) of the Exchange Offers. The Exchange Offers are being conducted pursuant to a confidential offering memorandum dated August 31, 2018, as supplemented by Supplement No. 1 dated September 7, 2018, Supplement No. 2 dated December 3, 2018, and Supplement No. 3 dated December 12, 2018 (the "Offering Memorandum"). (Logo: https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/737804/Digicel_Logo.jpg ) For the avoidance of doubt, in the event proration is required with respect to Existing 2020 Notes, Digicel will multiply the principal amount of each valid tender of such Existing 2020 Notes by the applicable proration rate and round the resulting amount down to the nearest multiple of $1,000 principal amount, to determine the principal amount of such tender to be accepted. Depending on the aggregate principal amount tendered of such Existing 2020 Notes and the proration factor applied, if the principal amount of the Existing 2020 Notes to be returned to an Eligible Holder (as defined below) as a result of proration would result in less than $200,000 principal amount being returned to such Eligible Holder, Digicel, in its sole discretion, will either accept or reject all of such Eligible Holder's validly tendered Existing 2020 Notes. The expiration date for each of the Exchange Offers remains unchanged at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 21, 2018. All other terms and conditions of the Exchange Offers also remain unchanged. As the Withdrawal Deadline (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) for each Exchange Offer has passed, holders may no longer withdraw Existing DGL Notes tendered i the Exchange Offers, except in certain limited circumstances as set forth in the Offering Memorandum. Each Exchange Offer is a separate offer and, subject to applicable law, may be amended, extended, terminated or withdrawn, either as a whole, or with respect to one or more series of Existing DGL Notes, at any time and for any reason, including if any of the conditions described in the Offering Memorandum are not satisfied or waived by the applicable expiration date. Documents relating to the Exchange Offers and Consent Solicitations (as defined in the Offering Memorandum) will only be distributed to holders of Existing DGL Notes who certify that they are (i) "qualified institutional buyers" within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or (ii) persons outside the United States that are not "U.S. persons" within the meaning of Regulation S under the Securities Act (such holders, "Eligible Holders").
