NEM Newmont Corporation

DENVER, Nov. 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Newmont Mining Corporation (NYSE: NEM) ("Newmont" or the "Company") announced today the results as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 9, 2016 (the "Early Tender Date"), of its offer (the "Tender Offer") to purchase for cash an aggregate combined principal amount of up to $500,000,000 (as such amount may be increased by the Company, the "Maximum Tender Amount") of its 3.500% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes") and 5.125% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "2019 Notes" and, together with the 2022 Notes, the "Notes"). The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer are described in an offer to purchase (the "Offer to Purchase"), dated October 27, 2016.

The Tender Offer commenced on October 27, 2016. The amount of each series of Notes that is purchased in the Tender Offer will be based on the order of priority (the "Acceptance Priority Level") for such series of Notes as set forth in the table below. If purchasing all of the tendered Notes of an applicable Acceptance Priority Level on the Settlement Date (as defined below) would cause the Maximum Tender Amount to be exceeded, the amount of such Notes purchased on the Settlement Date will be prorated based on the aggregate principal amount of such Notes tendered such that the Maximum Tender Amount will not be exceeded using the procedures more fully described in the Offer to Purchase.

The following table presents the aggregate principal amount of Notes of each series validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Early Tender Date, as reported by D.F. King & Co., Inc., the Tender Agent for the Tender Offer.

The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on November 25, 2016, unless extended by the Company (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the "Expiration Date") or earlier terminated. Withdrawal rights with respect to Notes tendered in the Tender Offer expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 9, 2016. Holders of Notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase will receive the applicable "Total Consideration," which includes an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 of principal amount of Notes tendered and accepted for purchase (the "Early Tender Premium"). Holders of Notes who tender their Notes after the Early Tender Date, but at or prior to the Expiration Date, will be eligible to receive only an amount equal to the applicable Total Consideration minus the Early Tender Premium (such amount, the applicable "Tender Offer Consideration"). The applicable Total Consideration or Tender Offer Consideration, as the case may be, will only be paid to holders of tendered Notes to the extent that the Company accepts such Notes for purchase.

The Total Consideration and the Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, for each series of Notes per $1,000 principal amount of Notes validly tendered and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase at 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on November 10, 2016, in accordance with standard market practice. In addition to the Total Consideration or the Tender Offer Consideration, as applicable, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes accepted for purchase will be paid from the last applicable interest payment date up to, but not including, the Settlement Date.

The settlement date for the Tender Offer will follow promptly after the Expiration Date (the "Settlement Date"). The Company expects that the Settlement Date will be November 28, 2016.

The Company's obligation to accept for payment, and pay for, Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase. If any of the conditions are not satisfied or waived by the Company, the Company will not be obligated to accept for purchase, or pay for, validly tendered Notes, subject to applicable law, and may terminate the Tender Offer. The Tender Offer is not conditioned on the tender of a minimum principal amount of Notes.

The lead dealer managers for the Tender Offer are Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated ("BofA Merrill Lynch") and BNP Paribas Securities Corp. ("BNP Paribas"), and BMO Capital Markets Corp. and MUFG Securities Americas Inc. are co-dealer managers.
