SANTIAGO, Chile, Jan. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Masisa S.A. (Bolsa de Santiago: MASISA) ("Masisa") today announced the commencement of a tender offer to purchase for cash up to U.S.$100,000,000 in aggregate principal amount (the "Maximum Tender Amount") of its outstanding 9.500% Senior Notes due 2019 (the "Notes") (the "Offer").
The Offer is being made by Masisa pursuant to the offer to purchase dated January 6, 2016 (the "Offer to Purchase") and the related letter of transmittal (the "Letter of Transmittal" and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the "Offer Documents").
The table below summarizes certain payment terms of the Offer:

U.S.$950.00 |
* Per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes. |
The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York city time, on February 3, 2016, unless extended or earlier terminated (such date and time, as may be extended, the "Expiration Date").
The early tender deadline for the Offer will be 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 20, 2016 (such date and time, as may be extended, the "Early Tender Time").
Holders of the Notes must validly tender their Notes prior to or at the Early Tender Time in order to be eligible to receive the Early Tender Payment in addition to the Purchase Price. The Notes tendered may be withdrawn prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 20, 2016 (such date and time, as may be extended, the "Withdrawal Deadline"), but not thereafter, except as required by applicable law.
The total consideration for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of the Notes is U.S.$950.00 (the "Total Consideration"), which includes an early tender payment of U.S.$50.00 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of the Notes (the "Early Tender Payment") and the Purchase Price. The Early Tender Payment is payable only to holders of the Notes who tender and validly deliver their Notes prior to or at the Early Tender Time. Holders validly tendering and not withdrawing Notes prior to or at the Early Tender Time will be eligible to receive the Total Consideration (including the Early Tender Payment) on a date promptly following the Expiration Date (the "Settlement Date") (which date is expected to occur on February 4, 2016, the first business day after the Expiration Date). Holders validly tendering their Notes after the Early Tender Time and prior to or at the Expiration Date will be entitled to receive U.S.$900.00 per U.S.$1,000 principal amount of the Notes (the "Purchase Price"), namely an amount equal to the Total Consideration less the Early Tender Payment, on the Settlement Date. In addition, holders whose Notes are purchased in the Offer will receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect of their purchased Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, the Settlement Date.
Because the Offer is subject to the Maximum Tender Amount, if the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to or at to the Expiration Date exceeds the Maximum Tender Amount, Masisa expects to accept for purchase on the Settlement Date an amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to or at the Expiration Date that is equal to (i) the amount of Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to or at the Expiration Date multiplied by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which would be equal to the Maximum Tender Amount and the denominator of which would be equal to the total principal amount of Notes tendered (and not validly withdrawn) in the Offer, rounded downward to the nearest U.S.$1,000 principal amount.
Masisa reserves the right, but is under no obligation, to increase the Maximum Tender Amount at any time, subject to compliance with applicable law. There can be no assurance that Masisa will exercise its right to increase the Maximum Tender Amount.
Masisa's obligation to accept for purchase, and to pay for, the Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Offer is subject to, and conditioned upon satisfaction or waiver of, certain conditions as set forth in the Offer Documents, in the sole discretion of Masisa. The offer is not conditioned on any minimum participation by the Holders or on obtaining any financing.
