Notes Offering
On May 1, 2020, Baker Hughes Holdings LLC (“BHH LLC”) and Baker Hughes
Co-Obligor,
Inc. (the
“Co-Obligor,”
and together with BHH LLC, the “Issuers”) closed the offering of $500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.486% Senior Notes due 2030 (the “Securities”). The Securities, which were offered and sold pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) by and among the Issuers and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC as representatives of the underwriters named therein, are registered pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form
S-3
(File Nos.
333-222111
and
333-22211-01),
filed on December 15, 2017.
The Securities were issued under an indenture dated as of October 28, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), between BHH LLC (as successor to Baker Hughes Incorporated) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 3, 2017, among BHH LLC, the
Co-Obligor
and the Trustee and as further amended and supplemented by the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of the date hereof, among BHH LLC, the
Co-Obligor
and the Trustee (together, the “Indenture”).
The Securities bear interest at 4.486% per annum and will mature on May 1, 2030. Interest on the Securities is payable on May 1 and November 1 of each year beginning November 1, 2020. At any time and from time to time prior to February 1, 2030, the Issuers may redeem the Securities, in whole or in part, at a “make-whole” redemption price as described in the Indenture. At any time and from time to time on or after February 1, 2030, the Issuers may redeem some or all of the Securities at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed as described in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains certain restrictions, including a limitation that restricts the Issuers’ ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to incur liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions. The Indenture also restricts the ability of the Issuers to consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of their assets.
The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the of the Base Indenture, which was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Current Report of Baker Hughes Incorporated on Form
8-K
filed on October 29, 2008, the Second Supplemental Indenture, which was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Current Report of BHGE LLC on Form
