Oppenheimer Holdings Inc. announced today that it priced $125 million aggregate principal amount of 5.50% senior secured notes due 2025 at an initial offering price of 100% of the principal amount in connection with its previously announced private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The closing of the private offering is expected to occur on September 22, 2020, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by OPY's subsidiaries, E.A. Viner International Co. and Viner Finance Inc. The Notes will be secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of OPY's and the subsidiary guarantors' existing and future tangible and intangible assets.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities law and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes will be offered in the United States only to qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act and outside the United States under Regulation S of the Securities Act.

OPY intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, along with cash on hand, to redeem in full its 6.75% Senior Secured Notes due July 1, 2022, and pay all related fees and expenses in relation thereto.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
