In April 2011, OneBeacon U.S. Holdings, Inc. (“OBH”) completed a cash tender offer for $150.0 million in aggregate principal amount of OBH Senior Notes for $161.6 million, which resulted in a $12.0 million loss, including transaction fees.

 

On June 1, 2010, through a cash tender offer, OBH purchased and retired $156.4 million aggregate principal amount of the OBH Senior Notes for an aggregate purchase price of $165.4 million, which resulted in a $9.6 million loss.

 

During 2010, in addition to the cash tender offer, OBH repurchased and retired $29.7 million of outstanding OBH Senior Notes for $30.8 million, which resulted in a $1.2 million loss and OBIC purchased $1.1 million of outstanding OBH Senior Notes for $1.1 million.
