TRICO ANNOUNCES PROPOSED OFFERING OF $400 MILLION SENIOR SECURED NOTES OF ITS SUBSIDIARY TRICO SHIPPING AS
THE WOODLANDS, TX, October 9, 2009 /PRIMENEWSWIRE/ — Trico Marine Services, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRMA - News) (the “Company” or “Trico”) announced that its wholly owned subsidiary Trico Shipping AS (“Trico Shipping”) intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Secured Notes due 2014 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) through an offering to qualified institutional buyers within the United States pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to persons outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Senior Secured Notes will be guaranteed by the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, Trico Supply AS and by Trico Supply’s subsidiaries (other than Trico Shipping) and parent companies, including Trico.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Senior Secured Notes to repay approximately $367 million of debt of Trico Supply and its subsidiaries outstanding at May 14, 2009. Because the Senior Secured Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or applicable state securities laws, the Senior Secured Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements. This news release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the Senior Secured Notes.
