INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. 14,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Calumet, Inc. (NASDAQ: CLMT)
(the "Company" or "Calumet") today announced that its wholly owned
subsidiaries, Calumet Specialty Products Partners, L.P. (the
"Partnership") and Calumet Finance Corp. (together with the
Partnership, the "Issuers"), priced their private placement (the
"Offering") under Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), of $100 million in aggregate principal amount of
9.75% Senior Notes due 2028 (the "New Notes"). The New Notes mature
on July 15, 2028 and will be issued
at 98% of par. The Offering is expected to close on January 16, 2025, subject to customary closing
conditions.
Calumet intends to use all of the net proceeds from the Offering
to redeem a portion of the Issuers' outstanding 11.00% Senior Notes
due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") on or before April 15, 2025 (the "Redemption"). The New Notes
are a mirror issue to the Issuers' existing 9.75% Senior Notes due
2028, of which $325 million in
aggregate principal amount was issued on June 27, 2023 (the "Original Notes"). The New
Notes will have substantially identical terms as the Original
Notes. However, the New Notes will be issued under a separate
indenture and have different CUSIP numbers from the Original
Notes.
The securities to be sold will not be, and have not been,
registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws,
and unless so registered, the securities may not be offered or sold
in the United States except
pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to,
the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable
state securities laws. Calumet plans to offer and sell the
securities only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified
institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act
and to non-U.S. persons outside the
United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities
Act.
This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption
with respect to the 2026 Notes. This press release shall not
constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to
buy, any of these securities, nor shall there be any sale of these
securities in any state in which such offer, solicitation, or sale
would be unlawful. This press release is being issued pursuant to
and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act.
