Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Select Medical Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), proposes to issue and sell to the several purchasers named in Schedule I hereto (the “Initial Purchasers”) $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.25% Senior Notes due 2032 (the “Notes”) pursuant to the terms of this purchase agreement (this “Agreement”). J.P. Morgan Securities LLC has agreed to act as the representative of the several Initial Purchasers (the “Representative”) in connection with the offering and sale of the Notes.

 

The Securities (as defined herein) will be issued pursuant to the provisions of an indenture, to be dated as of December 3, 2024 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the Guarantors (as defined herein) and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

 

The payment of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis, jointly and severally, by (i) the entities listed on Schedule II hereto and (ii) any subsidiary of the Company formed or acquired after the Closing Date (as defined herein) that executes an additional guarantee in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, the “Guarantors”) pursuant to their guarantees (the “Guarantees”). The Notes and the Guarantees attached thereto are herein collectively referred to as the “Securities”.

 

Concurrently with the issuance of the Securities, the Company intends to enter into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of March 6, 2017 (as amended, amended and restated, modified and supplemented from time to time prior to the date hereof, the “Credit Agreement”), among, inter alios, Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Parent”), the Company, as borrower, the lenders and issuing banks party thereto, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, which will, among other modifications to the Credit Agreement, (i) establish a new incremental term loan under the Credit Agreement (the “New Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,050 million, (ii) extend the maturity date of the revolving commitments thereunder, (iii) provide for an incremental revolving commitment in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million and (iv) make certain other changes to the Credit Agreement.

 

 

As described in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum (each as defined below), the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the issuance and sale of the Securities, together with the proceeds of the New Term Loans and available cash, to refinance the term loan currently outstanding under the Credit Agreement, to redeem all of its outstanding 6.250% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and to pay fees and expenses related to the foregoing. The issuance and sale of the Securities, the entrance into the Amendment, including the borrowing of the New Term Loans, the redemption of the 2026 Notes, and the other related transactions described herein and in the Time of Sale Memorandum (as defined below) are collectively referred to as the “Transactions.” This Agreement, the Indenture (including the Guarantees set forth therein) and the Securities described in the Time of Sale Memorandum are referred to in this Agreement collectively as the “Transaction Documents”.

 

In connection with the offer and sale of the Securities, the Company and the Guarantors have prepared a preliminary offering memorandum, dated November 18, 2024 (the “Preliminary Memorandum”), a pricing supplement, dated November 18, 2024, as set forth on Annex A (the “Pricing Supplement” and, together with the Preliminary Memorandum, the “Time of Sale Memorandum”), and will prepare an offering memorandum dated the date hereof (the “Final Memorandum”) setting forth information concerning the Company, the Guarantors and the Securities. Copies of the Preliminary Memorandum and Pricing Supplement have been, and copies of the Final Memorandum will be, delivered to the Initial Purchasers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. As used herein, the terms “Preliminary Memorandum,” “Time of Sale Memorandum” and “Final Memorandum” shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein on the date hereof. The terms “supplement,” “amendment” and “amend” as used herein with respect to the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum shall include all documents subsequently filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (the “Exchange Act”), that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to such terms in the Preliminary Memorandum.

 

The Company understands that the Initial Purchasers propose to make an offering of the Securities on the terms and in the manner set forth herein and in the Time of Sale Memorandum and agrees that the Initial Purchasers may resell, subject to the conditions set forth herein, all or a portion of the Securities to purchasers (the “Subsequent Purchasers”) on the terms set forth in the Time of Sale Memorandum (the first time when sales of the Securities are made is referred to as the “Time of Sale”). The Securities will be offered without being registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to persons who are reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in compliance with the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“Rule 144A”) and in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act (“Regulation S”). Pursuant to the terms of the Securities and the Indenture, investors who acquire Securities shall be deemed to have agreed that Securities may only be resold or otherwise transferred, after the date hereof, if an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act is available (including the exemptions afforded by Rule 144A or Regulation S). The Company hereby confirms that it has authorized the use of the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum and any Additional Written Communication (as defined herein) in connection with the offer and sale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers.

 

As used herein, the term “Company Group Entities” means the Company, together with all of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, including the Guarantors.

 

The Company and each of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, hereby confirm their agreement with the several Initial Purchasers concerning the purchase and resale of the Securities, as follows:

6.             Covenants of the Company and the Guarantors. Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, covenants and agrees with each Initial Purchaser as follows:

 

(a)             To furnish to the Initial Purchasers, without charge, as promptly as practicable following the Time of Sale and in any event not later than the second business day following the date hereof and during the period mentioned in Section 6(d) or (e), as many copies of the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, any documents incorporated by reference therein and any supplements and amendments thereto as they may reasonably request.

(c)             To furnish to the Initial Purchasers a copy of each proposed Additional Written Communication to be prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company and not to use or refer to any proposed Additional Written Communication to which they reasonably object.

 

(d)             If at any time prior to the Closing Date (i) any event shall occur or condition shall exist as a result of which any of the Time of Sale Memorandum as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading or (ii) it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Memorandum to comply with law, the Company will immediately notify the Initial Purchasers thereof and forthwith prepare and, subject to paragraph (b) above, furnish to the Initial Purchasers such amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Memorandum (or any document to be filed with the Commission and incorporated by reference therein) as may be necessary so that the statements in any of the Time of Sale Memorandum as so amended or supplemented (including such documents to be incorporated by reference therein) will not, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, be misleading or so that any of the Time of Sale Memorandum will comply with law.

 

 

(e)            If, during such period after the date hereof and prior to the date on which all of the Securities shall have been sold by the Initial Purchasers, any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Final Memorandum in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading or if, in the judgment of the Representative or counsel for the Initial Purchasers, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Final Memorandum to comply with applicable law, subject to paragraph (b) above, forthwith to prepare and furnish, at its own expense, to the Initial Purchasers, either amendments or supplements to the Final Memorandum so that the statements in the Final Memorandum as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, when delivered to a Subsequent Purchaser, be misleading or so that the Final Memorandum, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.

 

(f)             (i) To cooperate with the Representative and counsel for the Initial Purchasers to qualify or register (or to obtain exemptions from qualifying or registering) all or any part of the Securities for offer and sale under the securities laws of the several states of the United States, the provinces of Canada or any other jurisdictions designated by the Initial Purchasers, and to comply with such laws and to continue such qualifications, registrations and exemptions in effect so long as required for the distribution of the Securities and (ii) to advise the Representative promptly of the suspension of the qualification or registration of (or any such exemption relating to) the Securities for offering, sale or trading in any jurisdiction or any initiation or threat of any proceeding for any such purpose, and in the event of the issuance of any order suspending such qualification, registration or exemption, to use its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the withdrawal thereof at the earliest possible moment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Company or any of the Guarantors shall be required to qualify as a foreign corporation or to take any action that would subject it to general service of process in any such jurisdiction where it is not presently qualified or where it would be subject to taxation as a foreign corporation.

(h)            None of the Company, the Guarantors, or any affiliate (as defined in Rule 501(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) has or will, directly or through any agent, sell, offer for sale or solicit offers to buy or otherwise negotiate in respect of any security (as defined in the Securities Act) which if, as a result of the doctrine of “integration” referred to in Rule 502 under the Securities Act, such offer or sale would be integrated with the sale of the Securities hereunder in a manner that would require registration of the Securities under the Securities Act or would otherwise render invalid (for the purpose of (i) the sale of the Securities by the Company to the Initial Purchasers, (ii) the resale of the Securities by the Initial Purchasers to the Subsequent Purchasers or (iii) the resale of the Securities by such Subsequent Purchasers to others) the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof or by Rule 144A or by Regulation S thereunder or otherwise.

 

(i)              Not to solicit any offer to buy or offer or sell the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising (as those terms are used in Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act) or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.

 

(j)              (i) For so long as any of the Securities remain outstanding, to furnish to the Initial Purchasers copies of all reports and other communications (financial or otherwise) furnished by the Company to the Trustee or to the holders of the Securities; (ii) prior to the Closing Date, to furnish to the Initial Purchasers, as soon as they have been prepared, a copy of any audited annual financial statements or unaudited interim financial statements of the Company for any period subsequent to the period covered by the most recent financial statements appearing or incorporated by reference in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum; and (iii) while any of the Securities remain outstanding, to make available, upon request, to any holder of such Securities and any prospective purchasers thereof the information specified in Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act, unless as such time the Company shall be subject to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and shall have filed all reports required to be filed pursuant to such Sections and the related rules and regulations of the Commission.

 

(k)             During the period of two years after the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any Guarantor will be, nor will it become, an open-end investment company, unit investment trust or face-amount certificate company that is or is required to be registered under Section 8 of the Investment Company Act.

 

(l)              None of the Company, any Guarantor or their respective Affiliates, nor any person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will engage in any directed selling efforts (as that term is defined in Regulation S) with respect to the Securities, and the Company, the Guarantors their respective Affiliates and each person acting on its or their behalf (other than the Initial Purchasers) will comply with the offering restrictions requirement of Regulation S.

 

 

(m)            Each of the Company and the Guarantors will not permit any of its subsidiaries, and will use its reasonable best efforts not to permit any of its affiliates (as defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act), to resell any of the Securities that have been acquired by any of them, except for Securities purchased by the Company or any of its affiliates and resold in a transaction registered under the Securities Act.

 

(n)            Neither the Company nor any Guarantor will take any action prohibited by Regulation M under the Exchange Act in connection with the distribution of the Securities contemplated hereby.

 

(o)            The Company will apply the net proceeds from the sale of the Securities in the manner described under the caption “Use of Proceeds” in the Time of Sale Memorandum and the Final Memorandum.

 

(p)            During the period of 90 days following the date hereof, the Company will not and will not permit any of its subsidiaries to, without the prior written consent of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (which consent may be withheld at the sole discretion of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC), directly or indirectly, sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer or establish an open “put equivalent position” within the meaning of Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or announce the offering of, or file any registration statement under the Securities Act in respect of, any debt securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or securities exchangeable for or convertible into debt securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (other than as contemplated by this Agreement).

 

7.             Offering of Securities; Restrictions on Transfer.

 

(a)             Each Initial Purchaser, severally and not jointly, represents and warrants that such Initial Purchaser:

 

(i)              is a qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act and an accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act;

 

(ii)             it has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities by means of any form of general solicitation or general advertising within the meaning of Rule 502(c) of Regulation D under the Securities Act or in any manner involving a public offering within the meaning of Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; and

 

(iii)            has not solicited offers for, or offered or sold, and will not solicit offers for, or offer or sell, the Securities as part of their initial offering except:

 

(A)            to persons whom it reasonably believes to be qualified institutional buyer within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act in transactions pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act and in connection with each such sale, it has taken or will take reasonable steps to ensure that the purchaser of the Securities is aware that such sale is being made in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act; or

 

(B)            in accordance with the restrictions set forth in Annex B hereto.

 

 

8.             Indemnity and Contribution.

 

(a)             Each of the Company and the Guarantors, jointly and severally, agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Initial Purchaser, its directors and officers and each person, if any, who controls any Initial Purchaser within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, and each affiliate of each Initial Purchaser within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including, without limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim, as such expenses are incurred) arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained or incorporated by reference in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, any Additional Written Communication prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company Group Entities, or the Final Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in the light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities arise out of or are based upon by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to any Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto), it being understood and agreed that the only such information so furnished is as set forth in Section 8(b). The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(a) shall be in addition to any liabilities that the Company and the Guarantors may otherwise have.

 

(b)            Each Initial Purchaser agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and each of the Guarantors, each of their respective directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls the Company or any Guarantor within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company and the Guarantors to such Initial Purchaser, but only with reference to information relating to such Initial Purchaser furnished to the Company by such Initial Purchaser through the Representative expressly for use in the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto). Each of the Company and the Guarantors hereby acknowledges that the only information that the Initial Purchasers through the Representative have furnished to the Company expressly for use in the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, any Additional Written Communication or the Final Memorandum (or any amendment or supplement thereto) are the statements set forth in the third and fourth sentences of the eighth paragraph and in the tenth and eleventh paragraphs under the caption “Plan of distribution” in the Preliminary Memorandum and the Final Memorandum. The indemnity agreement set forth in this Section 8(b) shall be in addition to any liabilities that each Initial Purchaser may otherwise have.

 

 

(c)             In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b), such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing; provided, however, that the failure to so notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under paragraph (a) or (b) above, except to the extent that it has been materially prejudiced by such failure (through the forfeiture of substantive rights and defenses) and shall not relieve the indemnifying party from any liability that the indemnifying party may have to an indemnified party other than under paragraph (a) or (b) above. The indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel, (ii) the indemnifying party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, (iii) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be legal defenses available to it that are different from or in addition to those available to the indemnifying party or another indemnified party represented by such counsel, or (iv) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party (and/or other indemnified parties) and such indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel and any additional counsel engaged pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) above) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be paid or reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Representative, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss, claim, damage, liability or expense by reason of such settlement. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and does not include any statements as to or any findings or admissions of fault, culpability or failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

 

(d)            To the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause 8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and the Initial Purchasers on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total discounts and commissions received by the Initial Purchasers bear to the aggregate offering price of the Securities. The relative fault of the Company and the Guarantors on the one hand and of the Initial Purchasers on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or the Guarantors, or by the Initial Purchasers, and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Initial Purchasers’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8(d) are several in proportion to the respective principal amount of Securities they have purchased hereunder as set forth opposite their names in Schedule I hereto, and not joint.

 

 

(e)             Each of the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to Section 8(d) were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Initial Purchasers were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d). The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this subsection (e), no Initial Purchaser shall be obligated to make contributions hereunder that in the aggregate exceed the total discounts, commissions and other compensation received by such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement, less the aggregate amount of any damages that such Initial Purchaser has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

 

(f)              The indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the Guarantors contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Initial Purchaser, its officers and directors, any person controlling any Initial Purchaser or any affiliate of any Initial Purchaser or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.

 

9.             Termination. The Representative may terminate this Agreement by notice given by it to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be, any of the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE Amex Equities, the NASDAQ Stock Market, the Chicago Board of Options Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Chicago Board of Trade or the over-the-counter market, (ii) trading of any securities issued or guaranteed by Parent, the Company or any of the Guarantors shall have been suspended on any exchange or in any over-the-counter market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment or clearance services in the United States shall have occurred, (iv) any moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by federal or New York State authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change in financial markets or any calamity or crisis, either within or outside the United States, that in the Representative’s judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any other event specified in this clause (v), makes it, in the judgment of the Representative, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Memorandum or the Final Memorandum.

 

 

10.           Effectiveness; Defaulting Initial Purchasers. This Agreement shall become effective as of the date first written above.

 

If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities that it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the aggregate principal amount of Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on such date, the other Initial Purchasers shall be obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule I bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, or in such other proportions as may be specified by the Representative with the consent of the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers agreed but failed or refused to purchase on the Closing Date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of Securities that any Initial Purchaser has agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of one-tenth of such principal amount of Securities without the written consent of such Initial Purchaser. If, on the Closing Date any Initial Purchaser or Initial Purchasers shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities which it or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date and the aggregate principal amount of Securities with respect to which such default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of Securities to be purchased on the Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the non-defaulting Initial Purchasers and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Initial Purchaser or of the Company or any Guarantor except that the provisions of Sections 6(g), 8 and 11 hereof shall at all times be effective and shall survive such termination. In any such case either the Representative or the Company shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if any, in the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum or in any other documents or arrangements may be effected. As used in this Agreement, the term “Initial Purchaser” shall be deemed to include any person substituted for a defaulting Initial Purchaser under this Section 10. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Initial Purchaser from liability in respect of any default of such Initial Purchaser under this Agreement.

 

11.           Reimbursement of the Expenses of the Initial Purchasers. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Representative pursuant to Section 9 or because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company or any Guarantor to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company or any Guarantor shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company and each of the Guarantors, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Initial Purchasers, severally, upon demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Initial Purchasers in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

 

12.           Entire Agreement.

 

(a)             This Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement among the Company and the Guarantors, on the one hand, and the Initial Purchasers, on the other hand, with respect to the preparation of the Preliminary Memorandum, the Time of Sale Memorandum, the Final Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase and sale of the Securities.

 

 

(b)            This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company, the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

 

(c)            The Company and the Guarantors acknowledge that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Initial Purchasers have acted at arm’s length, are not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company, the Guarantors or any other person, (ii) the Initial Purchasers owe the Company and the Guarantors only those duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement) if any, (iii) the Initial Purchasers may have interests that differ from those of the Company and the Guarantors, and (iv) the Initial Purchasers have not provided any legal, accounting, regulatory or tax advice with respect to the offering contemplated hereby, and the Company and the Guarantors have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they deemed appropriate. The Company and the Guarantors waive to the full extent permitted by applicable law any claims it may have against the Initial Purchasers arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with the offering of the Securities.

 

13.           Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures thereto and hereto were upon the same instrument. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by telecopier, facsimile or other electronic transmission (i.e., a “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart thereof.

 

14.           Successors. This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto, and to the benefit of the indemnified parties referred to in Section 8 hereof, and in each case their respective successors, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. The term “successors” shall not include any Subsequent Purchaser or other purchaser of the Securities as such from any of the Initial Purchasers merely by reason of such purchase.

 

15.           Partial Unenforceability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other section, paragraph or provision hereof. If any section, paragraph or provision of this Agreement is for any reason determined to be invalid or unenforceable, there shall be deemed to be made such minor changes (and only such minor changes) as are necessary to make it valid and enforceable.

 

16.           Authority of the Representative. Any action by the Initial Purchasers hereunder may be taken by the Representative on behalf of the Initial Purchasers, and any such action taken by the Representative shall be binding upon the Initial Purchasers.

 

17.           Applicable Law. This Agreement and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.

 

Any legal suit, action or proceeding arising out of or based upon this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (“Related Proceedings”) may be instituted in the federal courts of the United States of America located in the City and County of New York or the courts of the State of New York in each case located in the City and County of New York (collectively, the “Specified Courts”), and each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction (except for suits, actions, or proceedings instituted in regard to the enforcement of a judgment of any Specified Court in a Related Proceeding (a “Related Judgment”), as to which such jurisdiction is non-exclusive) of the Specified Courts in any Related Proceeding. Service of any process, summons, notice or document by mail to such party’s address set forth above shall be effective service of process for any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court. The parties irrevocably and unconditionally waive any objection to the laying of venue of any Specified Proceeding in the Specified Courts and irrevocably and unconditionally waive and agree not to plead or claim in any Specified Court that any Related Proceeding brought in any Specified Court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Each party not located in the United States irrevocably appoints CT Corporation System as its agent to receive service of process or other legal summons for purposes of any Related Proceeding that may be instituted in any Specified Court.

 

 

Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any right to trial by jury in any suit or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement.

 

18.           Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes. (i) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Initial Purchaser of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. (ii) In the event that any Initial Purchaser that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Initial Purchaser becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Initial Purchaser are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.

Exhibit 99.1

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE	4714 Gettysburg Road Mechanicsburg, PA 17055 NYSE Symbol: SEM

 

 

Select Medical Holdings Corporation Announces Pricing of Offering of 6.250% Senior Notes due 2032 by Select Medical Corporation

 

MECHANICSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA – November 18, 2024 – Select Medical Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) (NYSE: SEM), today announced that Select Medical Corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Holdings (“Select”), has priced a private offering (the “Offering”) of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.250% senior notes due 2032 (the “notes”). The Offering is expected to close on December 3, 2024, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The notes will be senior unsecured obligations of Select and will be guaranteed by certain of Select’s existing and future domestic subsidiaries.

 

Concurrently with the consummation of the Offering, Select intends to amend its existing senior secured credit agreement to, among other things, establish a new incremental term loan which will refinance Select’s existing term loans, extend the maturity date of Select’s existing revolving credit facility and provide for an incremental revolving commitment.

 

Select intends to use the net proceeds of the Offering, together with the proceeds from the proposed new incremental term loan and cash on hand, to repay in full the term loans currently outstanding under Select’s existing senior secured credit agreement, to redeem all of Select’s outstanding 6.250% senior notes due 2026 and to pay fees and expenses related to the foregoing.

 

The notes and related guarantees have not been and will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements. Accordingly, the notes and related guarantees are being offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to certain non “U.S. persons” in transactions outside the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act.

 

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy, nor will there be any sale of, the notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful. Any offer of the notes will be made only by means of a private offering memorandum. This press release is being issued pursuant to and in accordance with Rule 135c under the Securities Act. This press release shall not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the 6.250% senior notes due 2026.
