Key Financial Metrics
The filing does not provide specific revenue, profit, cash flow, margin, or liquidity figures for the reporting period. The document focuses on a capital raise event rather than operational performance metrics.
- New Debt Issuance: $105 million aggregate principal amount of 11.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2029.
- Existing Debt: $400 million aggregate principal amount of 11.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 previously issued.
- Offering Structure: Private offering to qualified institutional buyers (Rule 144A) and offshore investors (Regulation S).
Material Changes
The primary material change is the expansion of the company's debt capital structure through the new $105 million note offering. This increases the total outstanding principal of the 11.000% Senior Secured Notes due 2019 to $505 million upon completion of the offering.

Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the use of proceeds from the $105 million offering (not specified in the text).
- Review the "Unaudited Pro Forma Combined and Historical Consolidated Financial Statements" (Exhibit 99.5) to assess the impact of the new debt on leverage ratios.
- Examine the "Risk Factors" (Exhibit 99.4) for specific details on the company's financial condition and the terms of the notes.
- Confirm the maturity date of the notes; the text states "due 2019" for both the existing and new notes, which may require verification against the full offering memorandum.
