SPX Corporation announced that it has commenced a tender offer to purchase any and all of its outstanding $500 million in aggregate principal amount 7 5/8% Senior Notes due 2014 through a cash tender offer. The Tender Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on February 5, 2014, unless extended or earlier terminated. In connection with the Tender Offer, SPX is also soliciting the consents of holders of the Notes to certain proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes. The primary purpose of the Proposed Amendments is to eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants (other than, among other covenants, the covenant to pay interest and premium, if any, on, and principal of, the Notes when due), eliminate certain events of default, and reduce the minimum redemption notice period from 30 days to three business days.
