SEE Announces Pricing of Senior Notes

Sealed Air Corporation (“Sealed Air” or the “Company”) (NYSE: SEE) today announced, together with Sealed Air Corporation (US) (together with the Company, the “Issuers”), the pricing of the Issuers’ offering of 6.125% senior notes due 2028 (the “Notes”). The Notes will be jointly and severally, and irrevocably and unconditionally, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of Sealed Air's existing and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee its senior secured credit facilities, subject to release under certain circumstances, although, for purposes of this offering, Sealed Air Corporation (US) is a co-issuer and not a guarantor.

The Issuers intend to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, (i) together with a borrowing under the Company’s incremental term loan facility and cash on hand, to finance the previously announced acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of LB Holdco, Inc., the parent company of Liqui-Box, Inc. (the “Liqui-Box Acquisition”), including related fees and expenses, (ii) to repurchase any or all of the Company’s outstanding 4.500% senior notes due 2023 (the “2023 Euro Notes”) pursuant to the tender offer commenced by the Company today and satisfy and discharge all of the Company’s outstanding 2023 Euro Notes in accordance with the terms of the indenture governing the 2023 Euro Notes and to pay related premiums, fees and expenses in connection therewith and (iii) to the extent of any remaining proceeds after giving effect to the foregoing transactions, for general corporate purposes. Net proceeds from the sale of the Notes, after initial purchasers’ discounts and commissions and the Company’s estimated fees and expenses, are expected to be approximately $767.7 million. The Issuers expect the offering to close on January 31, 2023, subject to customary closing conditions.

To the extent the expected Liqui-Box Acquisition has not occurred as of the issue date, the indenture governing the notes will require the Issuers to mandatorily redeem $350 million of the notes (on a pro rata basis) if (i) the Liqui-Box Acquisition is not consummated prior to May 8, 2024 or (ii) the Issuers notify the trustee in writing that (a) the acquisition agreement providing for the Liqui-Box Acquisition has been terminated in accordance with its terms or (b) the Liqui-Box Acquisition will not otherwise be pursued, at a redemption price equal to par plus accrued and unpaid interest on the notes to be redeemed, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date.

The Notes and related guarantees will be offered only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and to non-U.S. persons in transactions outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act, and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and other applicable securities laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
