Supervalu intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes to purchase 7.25% Hybrid Income Term Security Units held in the form of Corporate Units of its wholly owned subsidiary, New Albertson’s, tendered in the retailer’s offer to purchase any and all such outstanding Corporate Units at a purchase price in cash of $25.22 per Corporate Unit.

As a result of the completion of the offering of the Notes, Supervalu has announced that the financing condition to the offer has been satisfied. However, the completion of the offer remains subject to the other closing conditions and subject to applicable law, Supervalu said.
