£75,000,000 Floating Rate Reset Notes due 2033
Rentokil Initial plc announces that it has raised £75m through the issue of 25 year Floating Rate Reset Notes. The transaction will close on 30 September 2008 and the Notes will be listed.
The Notes contain put and call options and provisions for resetting the interest rate. From issue until 20 August 2013 the Notes will bear interest at three month LIBOR plus 3.98%. Thereafter, the interest rate will be 4.55% plus a credit spread which will be reset every two years by auction. Noteholders may put the Notes back to the issuer, at par, on 20 August 2013 and on each biennial interest reset date thereafter. The issuer may call the Notes at fair market value on interest payment dates from 20 August 2011. If not put or called, the Notes will mature on 20 August 2033.
It is expected that the net proceeds of the Notes will be used to repay drawings under the Company's bank facilities.
