Seagate Announces Expiration of Early Exchange Period and Upsize of Previously Announced Exchange Offers for Certain Outstanding Debt Securities

Seagate HDD Cayman (the “Company”), a subsidiary of Seagate Technology Holdings plc (NASDAQ: STX), today announced the expiration of the early exchange period in connection with its previously announced exchange offers (each, an “Exchange Offer” and together, the “Exchange Offers”) to certain eligible holders of the Company’s outstanding debt securities listed in the table below (together, the “Existing Notes” and each a “series” of Existing Notes) to exchange Existing Notes for up to approximately $750 million (“New Notes Issuance Limit”) in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 9.625% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “New Notes”). The Company announced that it had increased the previously announced New Notes Issuance Limit from $500 million to approximately $750 million, subject to further increase in its sole discretion. The complete terms and conditions of the New Notes are set forth in a confidential offering memorandum, dated as of November 14, 2022, (the “Offering Memorandum”), and the related letter of transmittal.

In the Exchange Offers, according to information provided by Global Bondholder Services Corporation, the exchange agent for the Exchange Offers, $1,309,731,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s Existing Notes were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 28, 2022 (the “Early Exchange Date”), as more fully set forth below. The Company has been informed by the exchange agent that the preliminary proration factor for the exchange of 4.125% Senior Notes due 2031 was approximately 63.9%.

(1) All Existing Notes of a series tendered for exchange in the Exchange Offers on or before the Early Exchange Date will have priority over any Existing Notes of such series that are tendered after the Early Exchange Date and on or before the Expiration Date. Acceptance of the Existing Notes is subject to the Acceptance Priority Level and the New Notes Issuance Limit.

Although the Exchange Offers are scheduled to expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on December 12, 2022, since Existing Notes have been validly tendered such that the maximum aggregate principal amount of New Notes to be issued in exchange for all such tendered Existing Notes would exceed the New Notes Issuance Limit, the Company does not expect to accept for exchange any Notes tendered after the Early Exchange Date.

Tenders of Existing Notes in the Exchange Offers may no longer be withdrawn, except in certain limited circumstances where additional withdrawal rights are required by law. The Company’s obligation to accept for exchange the Existing Notes validly tendered in each Exchange Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as described in the Offering Memorandum and the Company reserves the right to terminate any Exchange Offer for any reason or for no reason.

This press release does not constitute an offer or a solicitation by the Company to participate in the Exchange Offers and does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the New Notes, nor shall there be any sale of the New Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. The New Notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or any state securities laws. The New Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States or to any “U.S. person” as defined in Rule 902 under the Securities Act except pursuant to an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Company will enter into a registration rights agreement with respect to the New Notes.
