White & Case advises ICON on its US$2.15 billion notes offering and related secured debt refinancing

Global law firm White & Case LLP has advised ICON plc on the issuance of US$2.15 billion of notes by its wholly owned subsidiary, ICON Investments Six Designated Activity Company. The notes are guaranteed by ICON plc, a world-leading clinical research organization headquartered in Dublin, Ireland.

The proceeds of the notes were applied to repay all of ICON's outstanding secured term and bridge loans, and to redeem its secured 2027 notes. The full-service White & Case team coordinated this refinancing of existing secured debt such that all collateral securing such debt and the subsidiary guarantees on the issuer's existing notes were released substantially concurrently.

The White & Case team was led by partners Rafael Roberti, Ross Sturman, Binoy Dharia, Kimberly Petillo-Décossard (all in New York), Anthony Tama (London); and included associates Brian Munsie, Ashley Chana, Jessy Van Kooten and Nick Townsend (all in New York), and Sarah Diggins (Boston). Law clerks Shahmurad Lodhi, Dana Levy, Chao Li and Julia Utkus (all in New York) also assisted on the matter.
