Sale of Additional Senior Secured Notes due 2028

On March 8, 2022, LSB Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) completed its previously announced issuance and sale of $200 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “New Notes”). The New Notes constitute a further issuance of the 6.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2028, of which $500 million aggregate principal amount was issued on October 14, 2021 (such previously issued notes together with the New Notes, the “Notes”). The New Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of October 14, 2021 (the “Indenture”), by and among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein, and Wilmington Trust, National Association, a national banking association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Notes Trustee”). The New Notes were issued at a price equal to 100.000% of their face value, plus accrued interest from October 14, 2021 to March 8, 2022, in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) and will be resold to eligible purchasers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2028 and rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s debt that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the notes, and will rank pari passu in right of payment with all of the Company’s liabilities that are not so subordinated, including the Company’s revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Company’s obligations under the Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by the subsidiary guarantors named in the Indenture on a senior secured basis.

Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 6.250% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on May 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2022, to the holders of record on the immediately preceding May 1 and October 1. Interest on the New Notes accrues from October 14, 2021.

The Indenture provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants in the Indenture, payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, a failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Notes may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all the Notes to be due and payable.

The foregoing description of the Indenture is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Indenture (including the form of the Notes and the guarantees included therein), which is incorporated herein by reference.

On March 8, 2022, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the offering of the New Notes.

A copy of the press release announcing the closing of the offering of the New Notes is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
