Bombardier Announces Expiration of Early Tender Date and Amendments for its Cash Tender Offers

As of the Early Tender date for each Tender Offer, €353,055,000 aggregate principal amount of the 6⅛ Notes (45.26%) were validly tendered, and US$379,434,000 aggregate principal amount of the 8.750 Notes (27.10%) were validly tendered.

The Tender Offers and the Offer to Purchase are hereby amended as follows:

• The settlement date for any 8.750 Notes that have been validly tendered, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase by the Corporation, subject to the Acceptance Priority Level, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Consideration, the 8.750 Tender Cap and possible proration, will be the Final Settlement Date, regardless of whether the 8.750 Notes were tendered before, on or after the Early Tender Date. No 8.750 Notes will be accepted for purchase by the Corporation on the Early Settlement Date.
• Holders of 8.750 Notes that have been validly tendered, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase by the Corporation, subject to the Acceptance Priority Level, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Consideration, the 8.750 Tender Cap and possible proration will receive the Total Consideration in exchange for such 8.750 Notes, regardless of whether the 8.750 Notes were tendered before, on or after the Early Tender Date.
• Holders of 6⅛ Notes that have been validly tendered, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase by the Corporation, subject to the Acceptance Priority Level, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Consideration and possible proration will receive the Total Consideration in exchange for such 6⅛ Notes, regardless of whether the 6⅛ Notes were tendered before, on or after the Early Tender Date.
• Holders whose Notes are purchased in the Tender Offers will receive accrued and unpaid interest in respect of their purchased Notes from the last interest payment date to, but not including, (i) in the case of any 6⅛ Notes tendered at or before the Early Tender Date, the Early Settlement Date and (ii) in the case of (a) any 6⅛ Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date and (b) any 8.750 Notes tendered in the 8.750 Notes Tender Offer, the Final Settlement Date, as the case may be.

The Early Settlement Date and Final Settlement Date with respect to the 6⅛ Notes will not be changed. For avoidance of doubt, any 6⅛ Notes that have been validly tendered at or before the Early Tender Date, not validly withdrawn and accepted for purchase by the Corporation, subject to the Acceptance Priority Level, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Consideration and possible proration, will be settled on the Early Settlement Date in accordance with the terms of the 6⅛ Notes Tender Offer as set forth in the Offer to Purchase. Bombardier expects such Early Settlement Date with respect to such 6⅛ Notes to be March 15, 2019. Any 6⅛ Notes that have been validly tendered after the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase by the Corporation, subject to the Acceptance Priority Level, the Aggregate Maximum Tender Consideration and possible proration, will be settled on the Final Settlement Date in accordance with the terms of the 6⅛ Notes Tender Offer as set forth in the Offer to Purchase. Bombardier expects such Final Settlement Date with respect to such 6⅛ Notes to be March 29, 2019.

For avoidance of doubt, the Withdrawal Deadline, the Expiration Date and the Final Settlement Date will not be changed.

Except as expressly set forth herein, the terms and conditions with respect to the Tender Offers are as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, subject to the Corporation’s right to further waive, amend or terminate any provisions of one or both Tender Offers, including, but not limited to, waiving or amending the 8.750 Tender Cap in the Corporation’s sole discretion.

The Tender Offers are not conditioned on any minimum amount of Notes being tendered. However, the obligation of the Corporation to accept for purchase, and to pay for, Notes validly tendered pursuant to the Tender Offers is subject to, and conditioned upon, the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, in the sole discretion of the Corporation. One of those conditions is the completion of the offering of notes by Bombardier announced on February 28, 2019, on terms satisfactory to Bombardier, which condition has been satisfied. A portion of the proceeds of such offering (net of transaction fees and expenses) will be used to finance the Corporation’s purchase of Notes pursuant to the Tender Offers.

None of Bombardier, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, or their respective board of directors, officers or employees, the dealer managers, tender agent and information agent or the trustees for the Notes makes any recommendation that Holders tender or refrain from tendering all or any portion of the principal amount of their Notes, and no one has been authorized by Bombardier or any of them to make such a recommendation. Holders must make their own decision as to whether to tender their Notes, and, if so, the principal amount of Notes to tender.

All of the Notes are held in book-entry form. If you hold Notes through a broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other intermediary or nominee, you must contact such broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other intermediary or nominee if you wish to tender Notes pursuant to the Tender Offers.  You should check with such broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other intermediary or nominee to determine whether they will charge you a fee for tendering Notes on your behalf.  You should also confirm with the broker, dealer, bank, trust company or other intermediary or nominee any deadlines by which you must provide your tender instructions, because the relevant deadline set by such nominee will be earlier than the deadlines set forth herein.

Bombardier has retained Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC to serve as dealer managers, directly and through their respective affiliates, for the Tender Offers. Bombardier has retained Global Bondholder Services Corporation to act as the tender and information agent in respect of the Tender Offers.
