Item 8.01 Other Events.
On May 10, 2018, Valeant Pharmaceuticals International, Inc. (“Valeant”) issued a press release announcing that it is seeking to amend and restate its existing credit agreement and, subject to market conditions, to have a wholly-owned subsidiary issue $750 million of secured debt securities and $750 million of unsecured debt securities. The proceeds of the new term loans to be drawn under the amended and restated credit agreement and the new debt securities are expected to be used to refinance certain outstanding series of notes.
The press release was issued pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), relating to the offering of the debt securities. In accordance with Rule 135c(d) under the Securities Act, a copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.
The foregoing is qualified by reference to the press release that is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated herein by reference.
This Current Report on Form 8-K and the press release attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy these securities, nor shall there be any offer, solicitation or sale of these securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. These securities will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The notes have not been and will not be qualified for sale to the public by prospectus under applicable Canadian securities laws and, accordingly, any offer and sale of the securities in Canada will be made on a basis which is exempt from the prospectus requirements of such securities laws.
