(“CEDC FinCo”), entered into a joint summary term sheet (the “Term Sheet”) relating to a proposed financial restructuring of the Issuer and certain of its affiliates (the “Proposed Restructuring”). Roust Trading has delivered the Term Sheet to the Issuer as a viable alternative to the transactions contemplated by the offering memorandum, consent solicitation and disclosure statement filed by the Issuer with the SEC on February 25, 2013 (which has the support of neither Roust Trading nor the Steering Committee). The Term Sheet sets forth the material terms of a restructuring of the Issuer’s capital structure, including the following terms:

 

·Roust Trading would provide a new $172 million cash investment (the “New Cash”), the proceeds of which would be used by the Issuer or CEDC FinCo to make available a reverse Dutch auction opportunity for the 2016 Notes (the “Dutch Auction”). Any New Cash not used to purchase 2016 Notes in the Dutch Auction would be added to the consideration for the 2016 Notes which do not participate in the Dutch Auction on a pro rata basis.

 

·All remaining 2016 Notes not accepted for payment in the Dutch Auction (“Remaining 2016 Notes”) would be extinguished in return for (i) new senior secured notes due 2018 (“New Senior Notes”) with an aggregate principal amount equal to $450 million plus the interest accrued but unpaid on the Remaining 2016 Notes in respect of the period from March 16, 2013 to the earlier of June 1, 2013 and the date preceding the date of issuance of the New Senior Notes, (ii) $200 million convertible junior secured notes due 2018 (the “Convertible PIK Toggle Notes”) and (iii) any remaining portion of the New Cash not paid in the Dutch Auction.

 

·Roust Trading would receive, in respect of the New Cash and the extinguishment of the $50 million credit facility established pursuant to that certain binding Term Sheet entered into between Roust Trading and the Issuer, dated December 28, 2012, at least 85% of the equity of the reorganized Issuer.

 

·Holders of the Issuer’s 3% Convertible Senior Notes due 2013 (“2013 Notes”), holders of other Issuer unsecured debt and existing Issuer stockholders would receive in the aggregate no more than 15% of the equity of the reorganized Issuer.

 

·The New Senior Notes will be issued by CEDC FinCo, have a maturity date of April 30, 2018, and bear cash interest of 8% per annum, increasing to 9% in year two, and 10% in year three and thereafter.

 

·The Convertible PIK Toggle Notes will be issued by CEDC FinCo, have a maturity date of April 30, 2018, and bear interest of 10% per annum (payable in cash or in kind), and be convertible after 18 months into 20% of the Issuer’s equity, increasing to 25% if converted in 2016, 30% if converted in 2017 and then 35% if converted in 2018 or thereafter (in each case based on $200 million principal amount and PIK interest accrued on the Convertible PIK Toggle Notes).

 

·The New Senior Notes and the Convertible PIK Toggle Notes will be issued by CEDC FinCo and guaranteed by the Issuer and certain of the Issuer’s subsidiaries. To the extent legally permissible and permitted by existing debt obligations, the New Senior Notes and Convertible PIK Toggle Notes will be secured against all assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries.

 
 

 

The Steering Committee has agreed to work exclusively with Roust Trading through March 10, 2013 to prepare the documentation necessary to implement the Proposed Restructuring.

 

The foregoing disclosure is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Term Sheet, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.36 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Subject to the Term Sheet, in furtherance of the foregoing objectives, the Reporting Persons may in the future engage in conversations with the Issuer, other stockholders and/or other securityholders with respect to this matter or other transactions or changes in governance, management or the Board of Directors of the Issuer and may make additional proposals that may include proposing, considering or undertaking one or more of the actions set forth in subsection (a) through (j) of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons may also seek to increase their ownership of the Issuer’s securities beyond that which they have on the date of this filing.

 

Item 6.Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer.

 

The Reporting Persons hereby add the following disclosure to this Item 6:

 

The matters set forth in Item 4 of this Amendment No. 14 are incorporated in this Item 6 by reference as if fully set forth herein.
