SGL Carbon SE successfully placed EUR 250 million of Senior Secured Notes

01/05/2019

SGL Carbon SE has today successfully placed EUR 250 million in aggregate principal amount of its 4.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2024 (the Notes ). The transaction was several times oversubscribed.

SGL Carbon plans to use the proceeds, together with cash on hand, to prefund its existing convertible bonds due 2020 (the 2020 Convertible Bonds ), for repayment of the existing SGL ACF loan related to the BMW Joint Venture, and to pay related costs and expenses. In connection with the prefunding of the 2020 Convertible Bonds, SGL Carbon intends to deposit a portion of the proceeds from the offering of the Notes, representing the aggregate amount of principal and interest that will be due under the 2020 Convertible Bonds until their maturity, into an escrow account that will be pledged for the benefit of the holders of the 2020 Convertible Bonds.

The Notes will be issued at par. The transaction is expected to close on April 10, 2019.

SKion GmbH, one of SGL Carbon's major shareholders, purchased EUR 25 million of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes in the offering.
