B&G Foods Announces Initial Results of Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation for its 7.625% Notes Due 2018

— Announces Redemption of Remaining Notes —

PARSIPPANY, N.J., June 4, 2013 — B&G Foods, Inc. (NYSE: BGS) announced today that it has received and accepted for purchase approximately $218,063,000  aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 7.625% senior notes due 2018 (CUSIP No. 05508RAD8) (the “Notes”) validly tendered by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 3, 2013, which was the deadline for holders to submit tenders in order to receive the consent payment in connection with the tender offer.  B&G Foods has received consents from holders of approximately 87.75% of the Notes as of the consent payment deadline.

The consents are sufficient to effect the proposed amendments to the indenture and supplemental indentures governing the Notes as set forth in B&G Foods’ Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated May 20, 2013 and the related Letter of Transmittal and Consent (the “Tender Offer Documents”), pursuant to which the tender offer and the consent solicitation are being made.  The proposed amendments eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants and certain default provisions contained in the indenture and supplemental indentures for the Notes.  B&G Foods has executed a third supplemental indenture effecting the proposed amendments to the indenture and supplemental indentures.  The third supplemental indenture is binding on the holders of Notes not purchased in the tender offer.  The tender offer will remain open until 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on June 17, 2013, and holders who tender their Notes prior to this time will receive $1,050.90 per $1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered.

B&G Foods is simultaneously announcing that it has irrevocably called for redemption on July 4, 2013 all Notes that remain outstanding after the expiration of the tender offer, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes, plus an Applicable Premium (as defined in the first supplemental indenture relating to the Notes) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding, the redemption date.  Notices of redemption are being mailed on behalf of B&G Foods by The Bank of New York Mellon, the trustee for the Notes, to the registered holders of such Notes.
