FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 

DJO INCORPORATED ANNOUNCES OFFERING OF $100 MILLION SENIOR UNSECURED NOTES

 

SAN DIEGO, CA, January 14, 2010DJO Incorporated (“DJO” or the “Company”) today announced that its indirect wholly owned subsidiaries, DJO Finance LLC (“DJOFL”), an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of DJO Incorporated, and DJO Finance Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of DJOFL (“DJOFC” and together with DJOFL, the “Issuers”) intend to offer, in a private offering subject to market and other conditions, $100 million aggregate principal amount of 107¤8% senior unsecured notes due 2014 (the “notes”).  Obligations under the notes will be guaranteed by all existing and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s senior secured credit facilities and existing senior unsecured notes.  The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to prepay amounts outstanding under its senior secured credit facilities.

 

The notes are expected to be issued as additional notes under the indenture governing the Company’s 107¤8% Senior Notes due 2014 that were issued on November 20, 2007 (the “existing notes”).  The notes are expected to be treated as a single series with the existing notes and will have the same terms as those of the existing notes, except that (i) the notes will be subject to a separate registration rights agreement and (ii) the notes will be issued initially under CUSIP numbers different from the existing notes.  Holders that exchange their notes in a future registered exchange offer will receive registered notes that are expected to share a single CUSIP number with the existing notes and it is expected that such notes and existing notes will thereafter be fungible.

 

The notes will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to certain non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act.  The initial issuance and sale of the notes will not be registered under the Securities Act, and, the notes may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

 

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the notes, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
