CHICAGO, June 1, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- R.R. Donnelley & Sons Company (Nasdaq:RRD) ("RR Donnelley" or the "Company") today announced the early tender date results of its offers (the "Offers") to purchase up to $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount (the "Maximum Tender Amount") in an any and all tender offer for its 11.25% Notes due February 1, 2019 (the "2019 Notes") and in maximum tender offers for its 6.125% Notes due January 15, 2017 (the "2017 Notes") and 5.50% Notes due May 15, 2015 (the "2015 Notes", together with the 2019 Notes and the 2017 Notes, the "Securities").
The following table sets forth the Securities that are subject to the Offers as well as the aggregate principal amounts of Securities validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 31, 2011 (the "Early Tender Date").
Holders who have not already tendered their Securities may continue to do so at any time at or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 14, 2011, unless RR Donnelley extends or earlier terminates the applicable Offer. However, such holders will not be entitled to receive any early tender premium, except in the case of any Securities that were tendered prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on May 31, 2011 and which are ultimately accepted for purchase. No tenders will be valid if submitted after the applicable expiration date. Withdrawal rights for the Offers have expired.
RR Donnelley also announced that it has accepted for payment all of the $216,166,000 aggregate principal amount of 2019 Notes that had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Early Tender Date and expects to make payment on such notes today.
As described in the Offer to Purchase, if the aggregate principal amount of Securities within an Acceptance Priority Level that are validly tendered exceeds the Maximum Principal Amount to be Accepted (as set forth in the table above) following the purchase of Securities pursuant to the any and all offer for the 2019 Notes and, in the case of the 2015 Notes, of Securities tendered with a numerically lower Acceptance Priority Level, then RR Donnelley will accept such validly tendered Securities in such Acceptance Priority Level, in the aggregate, on a pro rated basis (rounded downward such that Securities purchased will be in integral multiples of $1,000, but not less than the minimum principal amount to be accepted). RR Donnelley reserves the right to increase the Maximum Tender Amount and/or the Maximum Principal Amount to be Accepted for any of the 2017 Notes and/or the 2015 Notes, subject to compliance with applicable law.
The Offers are being made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase dated May 17, 2011 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the related Letter of Transmittal dated May 17, 2011 (the "Letter of Transmittal"), which sets forth a complete description of the terms of the Offers. Holders of the Securities are urged to read the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal carefully before making any decision with respect to the Offers. The Offers are conditioned on the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase.
