Stapled Securities and Ordinary Shares

 

 

This is supplement no. 1 to the prospectus dated June 16, 2017 that relates to the offer and resale of up to (a) an aggregate of 2,550,682 units of stapled securities (the “Stapled Securities”) (including the ordinary shares of Vantage Drilling International (the “Ordinary Shares” or “New Shares”) (i) forming a part thereof that may become separated therefrom as described in the prospectus and (ii) that are issuable upon the conversion of the Notes (as defined below) forming a part thereof) and (b) an aggregate of 655,094 Ordinary Shares that are not part of any Stapled Securities, of Vantage Drilling International by the selling holders identified in the prospectus. As of February 10, 2016, the original issuance date thereof, each Stapled Security initially represented one Ordinary Share and an original issuance amount of $172.61 principal amount of 1%/12% Step-Up Senior Secured Third Lien Convertible Notes due 2030 (the “Notes” or “Convertible Notes”), in each case subject to adjustment as further described in the prospectus. Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 1% per year from February 10, 2016, the issue date of the Notes, through, but not including, the fourth anniversary of February 10, 2016. From and after the fourth anniversary of February 10, 2016 and through the maturity date of the Notes, interest will accrue at a rate of 12% per year. Interest on the Notes is payable in kind, semi-annually (in arrears) on June 30 and December 31 of each year by increasing the outstanding principal amount of the Notes. The Notes are mandatorily convertible, in whole or in part, into Ordinary Shares upon the occurrence of certain events enumerated in the indenture governing the Notes, as further described in the prospectus. Accordingly, the Notes, or portions thereof, may be converted into Ordinary Shares without the consent of the holder thereof in certain circumstances, as further described in the prospectus. We are not selling any Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares under this prospectus. We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares being offered by the selling holders.

The selling holders may offer Stapled Securities and Ordinary Shares from time to time, if and to the extent as they may determine, through public or private transactions or through other means described under “Plan of Distribution” in the prospectus at prevailing market prices, at prices different than prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The selling holders may sell Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares through agents they select or through underwriters and dealers they select. The selling holders also may sell Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares directly to investors. If the selling holders use agents, underwriters or dealers to sell the Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares, we will name such agents, underwriters or dealers and describe any applicable commissions or discounts in a supplement to this prospectus if required. Neither our Stapled Securities nor our Ordinary Shares are listed on any national securities exchange and no public market currently exists for our Stapled Securities or Ordinary Shares.
