BIRMINGHAM, Ala.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Aug. 4, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- HealthSouth Corporation (NYSE: HLS) today announced the pricing of a $350 million private offering of its 5.75% senior notes due 2024 ("Additional Notes") at a price of 100.50% of the principal amount. The Company will pay interest on the Additional Notes semiannually in arrears on May 1 and November 1 of each year, beginning on November 1, 2015. The Additional Notes will be jointly and severally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of the Company's existing and future subsidiaries that guarantee borrowings under the Company's credit agreement and other capital markets debt. This private offering is expected to close on August 7, 2015 and is conditioned on the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this private offering, along with cash on hand and certain borrowings under its senior secured credit facility, to fund the Company's previously announced acquisition of the operations of Reliant Hospital Partners, LLC and affiliated entities ("Reliant") and to pay fees and expenses related to the Reliant acquisition, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2015. This private offering, however, is not conditioned upon the completion of the Reliant acquisition, and the Reliant acquisition is subject to conditions that do not include the consummation of this offering.

The Additional Notes have been offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and outside the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Additional Notes and the related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act, or any state securities laws, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws.

This press release does not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to buy the securities described herein, nor shall there be any sale of these securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
