/CNW/ -- Bank of Montreal (TSX: BMO) (NYSE: BMO) today announced the pricing of USD 1 billion of non-viability contingent capital ("NVCC") Additional Tier 1 (AT1) Limited Recourse Capital Notes, Series 7 (the "LRCNs").
The LRCNs will bear interest at a rate of 7.375 per cent annually, payable quarterly, for the initial period ending, but excluding, November 26, 2036. Thereafter, the interest rate on the LRCNs will reset every five years at a rate equal to the prevailing 5-year U.S. Treasury Rate plus 2.579 per cent. The LRCNs will mature on November 26, 2086. The expected closing date of the offering is September 16, 2026.
On or before the issuance of the LRCNs, the Bank will issue NVCC Non-Cumulative 5-Year Fixed Rate Reset Class B Preferred Shares, Series 56 ("Preferred Shares Series 56") to be held by Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as trustee for BMO LRCN Trust (the "Limited Recourse Trust"). In the case of non-payment of interest, principal or the redemption price on the LRCNs when due or an event of default, the recourse of each LRCN holder will be limited to that holder's proportionate share of the Limited Recourse Trust's assets, which will consist of Preferred Shares Series 56 except in limited circumstances.
The LRCNs may be redeemed at the option of the Bank, with the prior written approval of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (Canada), in whole or in part, on not less than 10 nor more than 60 days' prior notice, every quarter on the interest payment date, commencing on November 26, 2036.
The net proceeds will be contributed to the general funds of the Bank and will be utilized for general banking purposes, which may include the redemption of outstanding capital securities of the Bank and/or repayment of other outstanding liabilities of the Bank, and are expected to qualify as Additional Tier 1 capital of the Bank for regulatory purposes.
