Item 8.01 Other Events.

Completion of Tender Offers for Outstanding Notes

On March 12, 2014, the Company completed its previously announced cash tender offers (the “Tender Offers”) for any and all of (i) the $400,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 8 38% Senior Secured Notes due 2017 (the “Senior Secured Notes”) and (ii) the $315,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 10% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes” and, together with the Senior Secured Notes, the “Notes”). A total of $368,651,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 92.16%, of the outstanding amount of the Senior Secured Notes, and $244,622,000 in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 77.66%, of the outstanding amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes were repurchased by the Company in the Tender Offers.

Redemption of Notes and Discharge of Indentures

On March 12, 2014, the Company notified holders of the Senior Secured Notes and the Senior Subordinated Notes that on April 11, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”) it will redeem all of the Notes remaining outstanding after the consummation of the Tender Offers, including $31,349,000 aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes and $70,378,000 aggregate principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Notes (the “Redemption”). The Senior Secured Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price of 103.0%, or $1,030.00 per $1,000, of the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest of approximately $16.28 per $1,000 in principal amount of the Notes to the Redemption Date (the “Senior Secured Notes Redemption Price”). The Senior Subordinated Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price of 107.5%, or $1,075.00 per $1,000, of the principal amount of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest of approximately $44.44 per $1,000 in principal amount of the Notes to the Redemption Date (the “Senior Subordinated Notes Redemption Price”).

The Senior Secured Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of January 29, 2010 among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and The Bank of New York Mellon as Trustee (the “Trustee”) and Notes Collateral Agent (the “Senior Secured Notes Indenture”). The Senior Subordinated Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of October 28, 2010 among the Company, the guarantors party thereto and the Trustee (the “Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture”).

In connection with the Redemption, on March 12, 2014, the Company irrevocably deposited with the Trustee both the Senior Secured Notes Redemption Price and the Senior Subordinated Notes Redemption Price and, as a result, was released as of such date from its obligations under both the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture pursuant to the satisfaction and discharge provisions thereunder.

Cessation of SEC Reporting

The Company has been a voluntary filer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and has been obligated to file periodic reports with the SEC pursuant to the terms of both the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture. As a result of the discharge of both the Senior Secured Notes Indenture and the Senior Subordinated Notes Indenture described above, the Company is no longer obligated to and will no longer voluntarily file reports with the SEC following this Current Report on Form 8-K.
