PRESS RELEASE
RSH-2009-021
 


 
RadioShack Corp. Announces Completion of Cash Tender Offer for its 7⅜% Notes Due 2011
 
 
FORT WORTH, Texas – September 28, 2009 – RadioShack Corporation (NYSE:RSH) announced today the completion of the cash tender offer to purchase (the “tender offer”) its outstanding 7⅜% Notes due 2011 (the “Notes”).
 
 
As of 8:30 a.m., New York City time, on September 28, 2009, the expiration date of the tender offer, an aggregate of $43,237,000 principal amount of the Notes had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the tender offer.  All of such Notes were accepted per the terms of the Offer.
 
 
Because consents were received in respect of less than a majority of the outstanding Notes pursuant to the consent solicitation conducted concurrently with the tender offer, the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the Notes have not been approved and such indenture has not been amended.
 
 
This release is for informational purposes only and is neither an offer to purchase, a solicitation of an offer to sell, or a solicitation of consents with respect to, the Notes nor a recommendation regarding the tender offer and/or consent solicitation.
