2. SECURITIES ACT EXEMPTION APPLICABLE
Pursuant to the Offering Circular, dated July 11, 2000 (the
"Offering Circular"), a copy of which is filed as Exhibit T3E(1) hereto,
and the related Letter of Transmittal, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit
T3E(2) hereto (which, together with the Offering Circular, constitutes the
"Exchange Offer"), Sunbeam Corporation ("Sunbeam" or the "Applicant" ) has
proposed to issue up to $348,422,000 aggregate principal amount at maturity
of 11% Senior Secured Subordinated Notes due 2011 (the "Secured Notes"), to
be issued by Sunbeam under the indenture to be qualified hereby, and up to
an aggregate of 34,238,000 newly issued, fully paid and nonassessable
shares of common stock, par value $.01 per share, of Sunbeam ("Sunbeam
Common Stock") in exchange for the entire aggregate principal amount at
maturity ($2,014,000,000) of Sunbeam's outstanding Zero Coupon Convertible
Senior Subordinated Debentures due 2018 (the "Zero Debentures"). Subject to
the terms and conditions of the Exchange Offer, Sunbeam will issue $173.00
principal amount at maturity of Secured Notes ($149.06 principal amount at
issuance) and 17 shares of Sunbeam Common Stock for each $1,000 principal
amount at maturity of Zero Debentures that are properly tendered and not
withdrawn pursuant to the Exchange Offer.
As the Secured Notes are proposed to be offered for exchange by
Sunbeam with its existing securityholders exclusively and solely for
outstanding securities of Sunbeam, the transaction is exempt from
registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities
Act"), pursuant to the provisions of Section 3(a)(9) thereof. Other than
certain shares of Sunbeam Common Stock issuable to the lenders under
Sunbeam's senior credit agreement, as described in the section of the
Offering Circular captioned "The Exchange Offer - Agreements Relating to
Sunbeam Securities - Senior Credit Agreement Amendment," there have not
been, and there will not be, any sales of the Secured Notes or Sunbeam
Common Stock made by Sunbeam (other than sales pursuant to the Exchange
Offer) or by or through an underwriter at or about the same time as the
Exchange Offer. No consideration has been, or will be given, directly or
indirectly, to any broker, dealer, salesman, or other person for soliciting
exchanges of the Zero Debentures. Sunbeam has appointed American Stock
Transfer & Trust Company (the "Exchange Agent") as the Exchange Agent in
connection with the Exchange Offer and MacKenzie Partners, Inc. (the
"Information Agent") as the Information Agent in connection with the
Exchange Offer. Sunbeam has agreed to reimburse the Exchange Agent and the
Information Agent for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in connection
therewith and to indemnify the Exchange Agent and the Information Agent
against any losses or claims incurred without negligence or bad faith on
the part of the Exchange Agent or the Information Agent, respectively, in
connection with their respective duties relating to the Exchange Offer. In
addition, Sunbeam will pay remuneration to its financial, legal, and
accounting advisors for the provision of advisory, legal and accounting
services, respectively. No holder of the outstanding Zero Debentures has
made or will be requested to make any cash payment to Sunbeam in connection
with the Exchange Offer.
