EX 99.1 OSI Press Release -Announcement of Senior Notes Tender Offer Results


Exhibit 99.1

OSI Restaurant Partners, LLC Announces Waiver of
Minimum Consents Condition and IPO Condition and
Results of Its Previously Announced Tender Offer for Its 10% Senior Notes Due 2015

TAMPA, Florida - August 13, 2012 - OSI Restaurant Partners, LLC (“OSI”) announced today that as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 7, 2012 (the “Consent Deadline”), it had received tenders and consents from the holders of approximately $102,207,000, or 41.2%, of the aggregate principal amount of its 10% Senior Notes due 2015 (CUSIP No. 67105EAB8) (the “Notes”), in connection with its previously announced tender offer and consent solicitation for the Notes (the “Offer”), which commenced on July 25, 2012, and is described in the Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated July 25, 2012 (the “Offer to Purchase”). OSI also announced today that it has waived the Minimum Consents Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and the IPO Condition (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) contained in the Offer to Purchase.
As a result of OSI waiving the Minimum Consents Condition and the IPO Condition, and pursuant to the terms of the Offer to Purchase, OSI has accepted for payment all Notes validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) prior to the Consent Deadline, and holders who tendered such Notes will receive $1,028.75 per $1,000 in principal amount of Notes validly tendered, plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes up to, but not including, the payment date for such Notes, which is expected to be August 13, 2012. Subject to satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase (other than the Minimum Consents Condition and the IPO Condition, which have been waived), any holder who tenders Notes after the Consent Deadline but prior to the expiration of the Tender Offer at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on August 21, 2012, or prior to the time and date specified in any extension of such time and date (the “Expiration Date”), will receive $1,018.75 per $1,000 in principal amount of any such Notes validly tendered, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the payment date for any such Notes.
OSI expects to use cash on hand, together with proceeds made available to it from the initial public offering of shares of common stock of its ultimate parent company, Bloomin' Brands, Inc., to fund payments to holders who validly tendered their Notes in the Offer and to fund the redemption or other retirement of the remaining Notes.
