By Jennifer Chiou
New York, April 11 - Edgen/Murray, LP said it intends to retire the long-term debt of its subsidiaries, including Edgen Murray Corp.'s $136 million of 9 7/8% senior secured notes due 2011 and Pipe Acquisition Finance Ltd.'s $130 million of senior secured floating-rate notes due 2010.
Edgen Murray II, LP, a new holding company formed by Jefferies Capital Partners IV, LP and its general partner to recapitalize and refinance Edgen/Murray, entered into a commitment letter with Lehman Brothers and Jefferies Finance LLC to provide $500 million in debt financing, a portion of which will be used to retire the notes.
Jefferies Capital Partners, funds managed by Jefferies Capital Partners, other institutional co-investors and Edgen/Murray management are expected to purchase Edgen/Murray's subsidiaries from its existing partners.
The company added that it plans to repay any amounts outstanding under its subsidiaries' senior credit facilities, also using proceeds from debt financing.
