ON Semiconductor Announces Offering of Common Stock

 

PHOENIX, Ariz. – Jan. 27, 2004 – ON Semiconductor (Nasdaq: ONNN) today announced a proposed common stock offering of 47.0 million shares, including 34.0 million shares offered by the company and 13.0 million shares offered by a selling stockholder. These securities will be issued under ON Semiconductor’s existing shelf registration statement on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

In connection with the offering, ON Semiconductor and the selling stockholder propose to grant the underwriters an option for a period of 30 days from the initial offering to purchase up to an additional 7.05 million shares of common stock to cover over-allotments, if any. ON Semiconductor plans to use a portion of the net proceeds of the offering to redeem a portion of its first lien senior secured notes due 2010 and its second lien senior secured notes due 2008 through the exercise of the “equity clawback” provisions of the indentures governing the notes. The company intends to use any remaining proceeds for general corporate purposes, which may include additional reductions in its outstanding debt. ON Semiconductor will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares by the selling stockholder.

 

The joint bookrunning managers for the offering will be Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated and Credit Suisse First Boston LLC. Copies of the preliminary prospectus related to the common stock offering may be obtained from Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, Prospectus Department, 1585 Broadway, New York, NY 10036-8200 (telephone no. 212-761-6775) or from Credit Suisse First Boston LLC, Prospectus Department, One Madison Avenue, New York, NY 10010 (telephone no. 212-325-2580).

 

This news release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under


the securities law of any such jurisdiction.

 

The common stock offering may be made only by means of a prospectus and related prospectus supplement, copies of which may be obtained by contacting Morgan Stanley or Credit Suisse First Boston as indicated in this news release.
