On June 5, 2009, Holly Corporation (the "Company") and certain of the Company's existing subsidiaries (the "Guarantors") entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with UBS Securities LLC, as representative of the initial purchasers named therein (the "Initial Purchasers"), by which the Company agreed to issue and sell, and the Initial Purchasers agreed to purchase, $200 million aggregate principal amount of 9.875% Senior Notes due 2017 (the "Notes") in accordance with a private placement conducted pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933. The sale of the Notes was completed on June 10, 2009. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of approximately $187 million after estimated expenses (i) to make post-closing inventory payments expected to be between $90 and $100 million in connection with its recent acquisition of the Tulsa Refinery from Sunoco, Inc. (R&M) and (ii) for general corporate purposes, including planned capital expenditures. Interest on the Notes is payable on June 15 and December 15 of each year, beginning on December 15, 2009.
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties and indemnification and contribution provisions whereby the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other, have agreed to indemnify each other against certain liabilities.
The Notes were issued under and are governed by an indenture dated June 10, 2009 (the "Indenture"), between the Company, U.S. Bank Trust National Association, as trustee ("Trustee"), and the Guarantors. The Indenture contains customary terms, events of default and covenants relating to, among other things, the incurrence of debt, the payment of dividends or similar restricted payments, undertaking transactions with the Company's unrestricted affiliates, and limitations on asset sales. On or after June 15, 2013, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem some or all of the Notes at a purchase price equal to 104.9375% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if any, such optional redemption prices decreasing to 102.4688% on or after June 15, 2014, and 100.0000% on or after June 15, 2015. Prior to June 15, 2012, the Company may on any one or more occasions redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at 109.875% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if any; provided that at least 65% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes remains outstanding immediately after the occurrence of such redemption (excluding Notes held by the Company and its affiliates) and the redemption occurs within 120 days of the date of the closing of such equity offering. Prior to June 15, 2013, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at a make-whole price plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if any. If the Company experiences a change of control, the holders of the Notes may require the Company to purchase for cash all or a portion of their Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the redemption date, if any.
The Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and will rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company's existing and future senior debt and senior to any future indebtedness of the Company that expressly provides for subordination to the Notes. The Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantors. The guarantees will rank equally in right of payment with all of the existing and future senior debt of the Guarantors and senior to any future indebtedness of the Guarantors that expressly provides for subordination to the guarantees. The Notes and guarantees are effectively subordinated to any secured debt, to the extent of the assets securing such debt, including indebtedness under the Company's senior secured credit agreement.
