DESCRIPTION OF NOTES
The following description of the particular terms of the notes offered hereby (referred to in the accompanying prospectus as “debt securities”) supplements and, to the extent inconsistent therewith, supersedes the description of the general terms and provisions of debt securities set forth in the accompanying prospectus. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the accompanying prospectus. In this description, all references to the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our” refer only to MasTec, Inc. and not to any of its subsidiaries. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, references to the “indenture” governing the notes refer to the base indenture (as defined below) as supplemented by the supplemental indenture (as defined below).
General
The notes will be issued under the indenture, dated as of June 5, 2009 (the “base indenture”), between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as to be supplemented and amended by the twenty-first supplemental indenture, to be dated as of the Issue Date (the “supplemental indenture”), between the Company and the Trustee.
The indenture is subject to, and is governed by, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and the terms of the notes include those made part of the indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act. The following description and the description in the accompanying prospectus do not purport to be complete and are subject, and qualified in their entirety by reference, to the Trust Indenture Act and all the provisions of the notes and the indenture. We urge you to read the indenture because it, and not this description, defines your rights as a holder of the notes.
Principal Amount and Maturity
We are offering $550,000,000 aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2029 (the “notes”). The notes will mature on June 15, 2029.
The Company may, without notice to or consent of the holders or beneficial owners of the notes, from time to time issue in separate offerings additional notes in an unlimited amount having the same ranking, interest rate, maturity and other terms (except the issue date, the price to the public and, if applicable, the initial interest payment date and the date from which interest will begin to accrue) as the notes. The notes and any additional notes will constitute the same series and will be treated as a single class for all purposes under the indenture, including waivers, amendments, redemptions and offers to purchase. However, if any such additional notes are not fungible with the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, such additional notes will be issued with a different CUSIP number (or other applicable identifying number).
The notes will be issued only in fully registered form, without coupons, in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. No service charge will be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or other similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith.
Interest
Interest on the notes will accrue at a rate of 5.900% per annum from the Issue Date and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15, commencing December 15, 2024, to those persons in whose names the notes are registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding June 1 and December 1, whether or not a business day, as the case may be.
If any interest payment date, any redemption date, any repurchase date, the maturity date, Change of Control Payment Date or any other date on which the principal of or premium, if any, or interest on a note becomes due
