The complete terms and conditions of the tender offer for the Notes are detailed in ILFCa™s Offer to Purchase dated May 19, 2011, and the related Letter of Transmittal (the aTender Offer Documentsa).
On June 2, 2011, after the Early Tender Date, ILFC exercised its right to accept for payment all of the 4.750% Medium-Term Notes, Series Q, due January 13, 2012 (the a4.750% Notesa) and the 5.400% Medium-Term Notes, Series R, due February 15, 2012 (the a5.400% Notes,a and together with the 4.750% Notes, the aAny and All Notesa) validly tendered and not withdrawn prior to the Early Tender Date. ILFC settled the payment for such accepted notes on June 3, 2011.
Each holder who validly tendered its 4.750% Notes prior to the Early Tender Date received the total consideration of $1,025.00 per $1,000.00 principal amount of its 4.750% Notes tendered and accepted, which consists of $995.00 as the tender offer consideration and $30.00 as an early tender payment and each holder who validly tendered its 5.400% Notes prior to the Early Tender Date received the total consideration of $1,030.00 per $1,000.00 principal amount of its 5.400% Notes tendered and accepted, which consists of $1,000.00 in tender offer consideration and $30.00 as an early tender payment. In addition, accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the applicable payment date of the Any and All Notes, was paid in cash on all tendered and accepted Any and All Notes. The total cash consideration, including accrued and unpaid interest, for such Any and All Notes was approximately $710.1 million.
The tender offers for the Notes will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City Time, on June 16, 2011, unless extended by ILFC (such time and date, as the same may be extended, the aExpiration Datea). Because the withdrawal deadline (5:00 p.m. New York City time on June 2, 2011) has passed, tendered Notes may no longer be withdrawn at any time, except in the limited circumstances where required by law described in the Offer to Purchase.
All the conditions set forth in the Tender Offer Documents remain unchanged. If any of the conditions is not satisfied, ILFC may terminate the tender offers and return tendered Notes not previously accepted. ILFC has the right to waive any of the foregoing conditions with respect to the Notes. In addition, ILFC has the right, in its sole discretion, to terminate the tender offers at any time, subject to applicable law.
