Uniti Group Inc. (the "Company," "Uniti," or "we") (NASDAQ:UNIT) today announced that Kinetic ABS Issuer LLC, a limited-purpose, bankruptcy remote subsidiary of Uniti (the "Issuer"), has commenced an offering of $1,140,710,000 aggregate principal amount of secured fiber network revenue term notes (the "Notes"), the issuance and sale of which are subject to market conditions and other factors. The Notes are expected to have an anticipated repayment date in June 2033. The Notes are expected to be secured by certain residential fiber network assets and related customer agreements in the States of Texas, Arkansas, Kentucky, Ohio, Georgia, Iowa, Alabama, Florida, North Carolina and Oklahoma. Each of the Issuer and its direct parent entity and subsidiaries are designated as "unrestricted subsidiaries" under Uniti's credit agreement and the indentures governing its outstanding senior notes.

In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Issuer expects to (i) increase the maximum commitment under its existing liquidity funding note facility to reflect the increase in the transaction's liquidity reserve requirements that would result from the issuance of the Notes and (ii) extend the maturity of the existing liquidity note facility to align with the final maturity date of the Notes.

Uniti intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include success-based capital expenditures and/or repayment of outstanding debt.
