LISLE, Ill., Dec. 14, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE: SXCP) announced today that it and its wholly owned subsidiary, SunCoke Energy Partners Finance Corp. ("Finance Corp." and together, the "Issuers"), have priced their previously announced private offering to eligible purchasers of an additional $70 million aggregate principal amount of their 7.50% senior unsecured notes due 2025 (the "New Notes").  SXCP expects to close the sale of the New Notes on December 19, 2017, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.  The New Notes will be issued at a price equal to $104.25 of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued interest from December 15, 2017, resulting in a yield to worst of 6.565%.

SunCoke Energy Partners, L.P.

The New Notes are being offered as additional notes under an indenture pursuant to which the Issuers originally issued $630 million aggregate principal amount in May 2017. The New Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all of SXCP's current subsidiaries (other than Finance Corp.) and certain of its future subsidiaries.

SXCP intends to use the net proceeds received from this offering to repay borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit facility.

The New Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (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 applicable exemption from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The New Notes may be resold by the initial purchasers pursuant to Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act. This press release is being issued pursuant to Rule 135c under the Securities Act.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy the New Notes nor shall there be any sale of the New Notes in any jurisdiction in which the offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to the registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
