CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (NYSE:CNP)’s shares gained 0.57% to $19.29.
CenterPoint Energy, Inc. (CNP) has elected to make a Reference Share Offer Adjustment and distribute Additional Interest, if any, in accordance with the terms of CenterPoint Energy’s 2.0 percent Zero-Premium Exchangeable Subordinated Notes due 2029 (ZENS) rather than electing to enhance the Early Exchange Ratio to 100 percent during the pendency of Verizon Communications Inc.’s (NYSE, Nasdaq: VZ) tender offer.
According to the terms of Verizon’s tender offer offered in Plan TO filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on May 26, 2015, (a) the tender offer is being made solely for cash and expires at 11:59 p.m. (New York City time) on June 22, 2015, unless the offer is extended or earlier terminated; and (b) Verizon anticipates to acquire all remaining shares of AOL for the same cash price in the subsequent merger of AOL with a partner of Verizon, if it consummates its tender offer.
Distributions of Additional Interest on the ZENS are therefore predictable to be made by CenterPoint Energy in connection with the consummation of Verizon’s tender offer and the subsequent merger of AOL with a partner of Verizon. CenterPoint Energy’s distribution of Additional Interest in connection with the Reference Share Offer is predictable to be proportionate to the percentage of eligible shares that are validly tendered by AOL stockholders in Verizon’s tender offer.
Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this press release have the meanings given to such terms in the indenture governing the ZENS.
