QVC Completes Issuance of $1 Billion of New Senior Secured Notes

WEST CHESTER, Pa.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- QVC, Inc. announced today the completion of the previously announced offering of $600 million principal amount of new 4.45% senior secured notes due 2025 and $400 million principal amount of new 5.45% senior secured notes due 2034 (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes will be secured by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of QVC, which is the same collateral that secures QVC's existing secured indebtedness and certain future indebtedness. The net proceeds from the offering will be used for the redemption of QVC’s 7.50% senior secured notes due October 2019 and for working capital and other general corporate purposes. QVC, Inc. is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation (Nasdaq: LINTA, LINTB, LVNTA, LVNTB).

The Notes were offered pursuant to an exemption under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") only to Qualified Institutional Buyers as permitted under Rule 144A of the Securities Act, or outside the United States to certain persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

In connection with the offering of the Notes, QVC has agreed, subject to certain conditions, to file a registration statement relating to a registered offer to exchange the Notes for new registered notes having substantially identical terms as the Notes.

This press release is for informational purposes only and does not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes, nor shall there be any sales of Notes 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.
