Business Wire
Kosmos Energy Ltd. (“Kosmos”) (NYSE/LSE:KOS) announced today the
pricing of $400 million aggregate principal amount of its 7.750%
senior notes due 2027. The offering is expected to close on October
26, 2021, subject to customary closing conditions. Kosmos intends
to use the net proceeds from the offering, together with cash on
hand, to refinance the $400 million aggregate principal amount of
private placement notes the Company issued to fund its acquisition
of Anadarko WCTP Company.
The securities offered will not be registered under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or any
state securities laws and, unless so registered, the securities may
not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or
an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the
Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws and
foreign securities laws. The senior notes and the related
guarantees were offered only to persons reasonably believed to be
qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from
registration set forth in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and,
outside the United States, to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the
exemption from registration set forth in Regulation S under the
Securities Act.
This press release is being issued pursuant to, and in
accordance with, Rule 135c under the Securities Act, and is neither
an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the notes or
any other securities and shall not constitute an offer to sell or a
solicitation of an offer to buy, or a sale of, the notes or any
other securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer,
solicitation or sale is unlawful.
