Diageo announces pricing for Exchange Offer for outstanding Notes due 2014
10 May 2010
Diageo plc
Diageo, the world's leading premium drinks business, today announced that it has determined the total cash consideration
payable in connection with its offer to exchange up to $1 billion aggregate principal amount of outstanding 7.375% Notes
due 2014 for a cash payment plus an equal principal amount of new notes due 2020 to be issued by Diageo Capital plc, with
payment of principal and interest fully guaranteed by Diageo plc. Diageo also announced today that it has determined the
interest rate to be paid on the new notes issued in connection with the exchange offer.
The total cash consideration payable for each $1,000 principal amount of 2014 notes accepted for exchange will be $180.13,
calculated using a discount rate of 50 basis points over the yield of 1.736% on the 1.5% US Treasury security maturing on 31
December 2013. The total cash consideration includes an early exchange premium of $50 per $1,000 principal amount of
2014 notes accepted for exchange, but only holders who validly tendered, and did not validly withdraw, their 2014 notes at or
prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on 27 April 2010, will be eligible to receive the early exchange premium. Holders
who validly tender notes thereafter but before the expiration date will receive cash consideration that does not include the
early exchange premium.
The new notes will bear interest from the settlement date of the exchange offer, which is expected to be Friday, 14 May 2010,
at a rate per annum equal to 4.828%. The interest rate payable on the new notes was calculated as 100 basis points over the
yield of 3.524% on the 3.625% US Treasury security maturing on 15 February 2020, plus an additional 30.4 basis points in
respect of accrued but unpaid interest on the 2014 notes to, but not including, the settlement date.
The exchange offer will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on 12 May 2010 (unless extended). Pursuant to the terms
of the exchange offer, Diageo will accept for exchange only 2014 notes in an aggregate principal amount up to $1 billion on a
pro rata basis among the tendering holders.
Any notes previously tendered in the exchange offer may be withdrawn at any time prior to the expiration date.
