Item 8.01 Other Events.

On May 16, 2019, Neiman Marcus Group LTD LLC (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that it intends to commence, subject to market and other conditions, a private offering (the “Second Lien Notes Offering”) of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of second lien notes due 2024 (the “Second Lien Notes”). The Second Lien Notes will be joint and several primary obligations of the Company, The Neiman Marcus Group LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, Mariposa Borrower, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and The NMG Subsidiary LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (collectively, the “Issuers”).

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Second Lien Notes Offering to (i) repay up to $550.0 million of the term loans under the Company’s existing term loan credit facility (the “Existing Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) pay fees and expenses related to the Second Lien Notes Offering, the amendment and extension of the Existing Term Loan Facility and the previously announced exchange offers and consent solicitations (the “Exchange Offers”) relating to the Company’s existing unsecured 8.000% Senior Cash Pay Notes due 2021 and 8.750%/9.500% Senior PIK Toggle Notes due 2021 (the “Existing Notes”). The Second Lien Notes Offering is subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including the completion of the Exchange Offers.

The terms of the Second Lien Notes Offering will be substantially consistent with the terms set forth in the previously announced Transaction Support Agreement, dated March 25, 2019, as amended on April 10, 2019 and April 19, 2019, by and among the Company, certain of its affiliates and holders of Existing Notes and term loans under the Company’s term loan credit facility (the “TSA”). The foregoing is a summary of the material terms of, and is qualified by, the press release, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01. The information disclosed in this Item 8.01, including Exhibit 99.1, is being furnished and will not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that Section, nor will it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such a filing.

The Second Lien Notes and related guarantees will not be registered under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any state and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Neither this Report nor the press release constitutes an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy Second Lien Notes, nor will there be any sale of the Second Lien Notes, in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
