Item 8.01. Other Events.

Senior Secured Notes Offering

On November 4, 2015, Sabre Corporation (“Sabre,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) issued a press release announcing the commencement of a proposed offering by its wholly-owned subsidiary Sabre GLBL Inc. (“Sabre GLBL”) of $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes due 2023 (the “Notes”). The Notes and the related note guarantees will be offered in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The precise timing, size and terms of the offering are subject to market conditions and other factors.

The Notes and the related note guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws. The Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration under, or an applicable exemption from, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

We expect to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to redeem $235 million aggregate principal amount of the $400 million 8.35% senior unsecured notes due 2016 issued by Sabre Holdings Corporation, a subsidiary of Sabre and parent of Sabre GLBL, and to pay accrued interest, premiums, fees and expenses related thereto. The excess net proceeds will be available for general corporate purposes, including potential acquisitions and certain potential repurchases of shares of Sabre’s common stock. The foregoing does not constitute a notice of redemption for or an obligation to issue a notice of redemption for our outstanding notes.

A copy of the press release announcing the offering of the Notes is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.

A confidential offering circular is being furnished to prospective investors in connection with Sabre GLBL’s private offering of the Notes. Certain disclosures that are included in the confidential offering circular are attached as Exhibit 99.2 to this Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein. Certain of this information has not previously been made publicly available by the registrant. This Form 8-K also updates certain information previously reported by the Company.
