MEXICO CITY, June 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Grupo Posadas, S.A.B. de C.V. (the "Company") announced today that as of 5:00 P.M., New York City time on June 24, 2015, the Early Tender and Consent Time for its previously announced offer to purchase for cash (the "Tender Offer") any and all of its U.S. $310 million in aggregate principal amount of outstanding 7.875% Senior Notes due 2017 (the "Notes") and solicitation of consents (the "Consents") to amend the indenture relating to the Notes (the "Consent Solicitation"), it has received valid tenders and Consents from holders of U.S. $269.16 million aggregate principal amount of the Notes, representing approximately 86.83% of the U.S. $310 million aggregate principal amount of Notes which are outstanding.   Accordingly, the requisite majority of Consents to adopt the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes (the "Indenture") has been received.  The proposed amendments adopted pursuant to the Consent Solicitation will eliminate substantially all of the Company's restrictive covenants, as well as various events of default and related provisions contained in the Indenture.   

In accordance with the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation, the Company, the guarantors of the Notes and the trustee under the Indenture will enter into a supplemental indenture to effect the proposed amendments, which proposed amendments will become effective on the date when the Company accepts the tendered Notes for purchase and pays the amounts due pursuant to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation with respect to the tendered Notes.

The expiration time of the Tender Offer remains 8:30 A.M., New York City Time, on July 10, 2015, unless extended (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the "Expiration Time") or earlier terminated by the Company.  Holders who validly tendered and did not validly withdraw their Notes at or prior to 5:00 P.M., New York City Time, on June 24, 2015 (the "Early Tender and Consent Time"), will receive the Total Consideration (as described below). Holders who validly tender and do not validly withdraw their Notes after the Early Tender and Consent Time, but at or prior to the Expiration Time, will receive the Tender Offer Consideration (as described below). Holders who tender their Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer are obligated to consent to the proposed amendments to the Indenture.

Holders whose Notes are accepted for purchase by the Company will receive, in addition to accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date, for each U.S.$1,000 principal amount of Notes tendered, an amount in cash in U.S. dollars equal to:

• in the case of Notes tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender and Consent Time, an amount equal to U.S.$1,060.00 (the "Total Consideration"), consisting of (i) an amount equal to U.S.$1,030.00, (the "Tender Offer Consideration") plus (ii) an amount equal to U.S.$30.00 (the "Early Consent Payment"); or
• in the case of Notes tendered and not validly withdrawn after the Early Tender and Consent Time, but at or prior to the Expiration Time, the Tender Offer Consideration, which is the Total Consideration minus the Early Consent Payment.

The terms and conditions of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation are set forth in an offer to purchase and consent solicitation statement, dated June 11, 2015 (the "Offer to Purchase").  The Company may amend, extend or terminate the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation for any reason as provided in the Offer to Purchase.

The completion of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation is conditioned on, among other things, the receipt by the Company of an amount of net proceeds, in cash, not less than the amount of cash required to settle the payment of the Tender Offer Consideration or Total Consideration, as applicable, plus accrued interest for the Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation, and all related expenses in connection therewith from one or more new debt offerings on terms satisfactory to the Company in its sole discretion at or prior to the applicable settlement date.

In the event the above condition has been satisfied, and all other conditions to the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation have been satisfied or have been waived by the Company, the Company expects that payment for all Notes validly tendered at or prior to the Early Tender and Consent Time and accepted by the Company for purchase will be made on the business day the Company selects promptly after the Early Tender and Consent Time or after such other date on which the Company accepts such Notes for purchase. 

Payment for all Notes validly tendered after the Early Tender and Consent Time and at or prior to the Expiration Time and accepted by the Company for purchase will be made on the business day the Company selects promptly following the Expiration Time or the business day on which all conditions to consummation of the Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation have been satisfied or have been waived by the Company.
