Item 8.01. Other Events.
On October 5, 2011, Jazz Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), completed its voluntary early redemption of the entire remaining $35,091,000 principal amount of its 8.00% convertible notes originally due December 31, 2011 (the “Notes”). In accordance with the indenture for the Notes, the remaining Notes were redeemed at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes. The Company financed the redemption through available cash on hand, which enabled the Company to save over $600,000 in interest. Upon completion of this redemption, none of the 8.00% notes due December 31, 2011 remains outstanding, and neither the Company nor its subsidiary, Jazz Semiconductor, Inc., has any notes due before 2015.
A copy of a press release announcing the redemption of the Notes is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
