On June 13, 2013, notice was given that the Notice of Redemption issued on May 24, 2013 (the “Notice of Redemption”) with respect to the $188 million in aggregate principal amount of 9.75% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2017 (the “Senior Subordinated Notes”) of The Yankee Candle Company, Inc. (the “Company”) was rescinded. Such Notice of Redemption was subject to the satisfaction of the Financing Condition (as defined in the Notice of Redemption). The Company informed holders of the Senior Subordinated Notes that the Financing Condition will not be satisfied on the Senior Subordinated Redemption Date (as defined in the Notice of Redemption). As a result, no Senior Subordinated Notes will be redeemed.

In addition, the Company announced that it has terminated the previously announced offering of $450.0 million of senior notes in a private placement transaction and that the Company does not intend to enter into a new term loan facility or to amend its asset-based credit facility, which were contemplated in connection with the consummation of the notes offering.
