PRONET INC. PLANS RULE 144A OFFERING OF
$100 MILLION OF SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTES
PLANO, TEXAS, May 11, 1995 -- PRONET INC. (NASDAQ - PNET) today announced
that it intends to commence a Rule 144A offering of $100 million principal
amount of senior subordinated notes due 2005. The Company anticipates
completing the offering during the second quarter of 1995.
The notes will be general unsecured obligations of the Company and will be
subordinated to all existing and future Senior Debt (to be defined in the
indenture governing the notes) of the Company. The indenture will provide
that the Company may not incur any debt that is subordinate in right of
payment to the Senior Debt and senior in right of payment to the notes. The
indenture will also contain covenants that, among other things, will limit
the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur indebtedness, pay
dividends, engage in transactions with affiliates, sell assets and engage in
mergers, consolidations and other acquisitions.
The Company expects to use the net proceeds of the private offering to
repay indebtedness under its credit facility, to pursue the Company's
acquisition strategy, to purchase frequency rights, to make capital
expenditures for buildout of the Company's regional paging systems and for
enhanced services, and for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The notes have not been and will not be registered under the Securities
Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.
ProNet, based in the Dallas suburb of Plano, Texas, is a leading provider
of wireless communications services through its paging and security
operations.
