\nBelden Inc. (NYSE: BDC), a leading global supplier of specialty networking solutions, today announced the pricing of its private offering (the \u201cNotes Offering\u201d) of \u20ac450 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.250% senior subordinated notes due 2033 (the \u201cNotes\u201d) at an issue price of 100% of their principal amount. Belden expects the Notes Offering to close on January 28, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions. The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior subordinated basis by Belden\u2019s current and future domestic subsidiaries that guarantee Belden\u2019s indebtedness under its revolving credit agreement.<\/p>\n
\nBelden intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering along with cash on hand to fund the redemption in full of its 3.375% senior subordinated notes due 2027 (the \u201c2027 Notes\u201d), pursuant to the terms of the Indenture relating to the 2027 Notes, and pay related fees and expenses. Belden expects the redemption date for the 2027 Notes to be on or about February 11, 2026.<\/p>\n
\nThe Notes offered have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the \u201cSecurities Act\u201d), or any state securities laws; and unless so registered, the Notes may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. The Notes are being offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons under Regulation S.<\/p>\n
\nThis announcement shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy any of the Notes, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes in any state in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state. This announcement shall not constitute a redemption notice and is not an offer to redeem or purchase any of the 2027 Notes.<\/p>\n
\nIn connection with the Notes Offering, the initial purchasers may engage in stabilizing transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that which might otherwise prevail. Any such stabilization action must be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws and rules.<\/p>\n

For these purposes the expression \u201cProspectus Regulation\u201d means Regulation (EU) 2017\/1129, as amended. This press release does not constitute a prospectus within the meaning of the Prospectus Regulation and does not constitute an offer to the public in the EEA.<\/p>\n
\nThe Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the EEA. For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of (i) a retail client as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of Directive 2014\/65\/EU (as amended, \u201cMiFID II\u201d), (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive (EU) 2016\/97 (as amended, the \u201cInsurance Distribution Directive\u201d), where that customer would not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II, or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Regulation. Consequently, no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No. 1286\/2014 (as amended, the \u201cPRIIPs Regulation\u201d) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.<\/p>\n

Consequently, no key information document required by the PRIIPs Regulation as it forms part of domestic law in the UK by virtue of the EUWA (the \u201cUK PRIIPs Regulation\u201d) for offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and, therefore, offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.<\/p>\n
