SINGAPORE, Sept. 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Maxeon Solar Technologies, Ltd. (NASDAQ:MAXN) ("Maxeon") today announced the completion of its previously announced registered offering of Maxeon's ordinary shares (the "offering"). The offering was conducted in connection with the physical delivery forward transaction between Maxeon and Merrill Lynch International, an affiliate of BofA Securities, Inc.

On July 17, 2020, Maxeon completed the issuance and sale of $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.50% green convertible senior notes (the "Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933. The note valuation period for calculation of the initial conversion rate of the Notes concluded on September 29, 2020 and the Convertibility Commencement Date (as defined in the indenture governing the Notes) will occur on Thursday, October 1, 2020. In accordance with the indenture governing the Notes, Maxeon announced today the initial conversion rate of 54.9611 ordinary shares per $1,000 principal amount of Notes.

In connection with the issuance of the Notes, Maxeon entered into the physical delivery forward transaction with respect to the ordinary shares sold in the offering pursuant to which the Merrill Lynch International agreed to deliver the same number of ordinary shares offered and sold in the offering to Maxeon and/or a third party-trustee designated by Maxeon for no consideration at or around the maturity of the Notes.

A total of approximately 3.8 million shares were sold in the offering for gross proceeds of approximately $58.5 million. Merrill Lynch International received all such proceeds from the sale of the ordinary shares.

The ordinary shares were offered pursuant to Maxeon's Registration Statement on Form F-3 (File No. 333-248564), previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on September 3, 2020 and declared effective on September 8, 2020, which included a prospectus supplement relating to the offering. These documents may be accessed for free by visiting the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, Maxeon or any underwriter or any dealer participating in the offering will arrange to send the prospectus and the related prospectus supplement by contacting Maxeon at [email protected] or by contacting BofA Securities, NC1-004-03-43, 200 North College Street, 3rd Floor, Charlotte, NC 28255-0001, Attention: Prospectus Department, calling 800/294-1322 or emailing [email protected].

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities in the offering, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or other jurisdiction.
