LEXINGTON, Ky., May 19, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Tempur Sealy International, Inc. (NYSE: TPX) today announced that it proposes to offer, subject to market conditions and other factors, $500 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2026 (the "Notes") to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. Tempur Sealy expects to use the net proceeds of the offering to redeem all $375 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% senior notes due 2020 (the "2020 Notes") at a redemption price equal to the principal amount thereof and the applicable "make-whole" premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest through the redemption date, and pay fees and expenses related thereto. Tempur Sealy intends to use any net proceeds remaining after the redemption of the 2020 Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include repurchases of its common stock pursuant to existing authorizations and any future authorizations approved by its Board of Directors. Pending such uses, Tempur Sealy intends to temporarily reduce revolver borrowings or invest such proceeds in short-term investments. The Notes will be general unsecured senior obligations of Tempur Sealy and will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of Tempur Sealy's existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee or are borrowers under its senior secured credit facilities.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.

This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.
