Tenet Calls for Full Redemption of 7.500% Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2025

Tenet Healthcare Corporation (NYSE: THC) yesterday called for the redemption of all of the $700 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of its 7.500% senior secured first lien notes due April 1, 2025 (the “Notes”), which were issued pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of November 6, 2001, by and between Tenet and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor trustee to The Bank of New York, as supplemented by the Thirty-Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of April 7, 2020, thereto (collectively, the “Indenture”).

The Notes will be redeemed on February 23, 2022 (the “Redemption Date”) with available cash on hand, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed plus the make-whole premium set forth in the Indenture (the “Redemption Price”), together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Tenet expects the Redemption Price to be approximately $730 million, and through such redemption, to lower its future annual cash interest payments by approximately $53 million.
