JAKKS Pacific, Inc. (NASDAQ:JAKK) today announced the pricing of $85.0 million principal amount of 4.50% convertible senior notes due 2014 (the “notes”).

The notes are senior unsecured obligations of JAKKS, will pay interest semi-annually at a rate of 4.50% per annum and will mature on November 1, 2014. The conversion rate will initially be 63.2091 shares of JAKKS common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $15.82 per share of common stock), subject to adjustment in certain circumstances. Prior to August 1, 2014, holders of the notes may convert their notes only upon specified events. Upon conversion, the notes may be settled, at JAKKS’ election, in cash, shares of its common stock, or a combination of cash and shares of its common stock. Holders of the notes may require JAKKS to repurchase for cash all or some of their notes upon the occurrence of a fundamental change (as defined). JAKKS anticipates closing the offering of the notes on November 10, 2009. JAKKS also granted the initial purchaser of the notes a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $15.0 million in principal amount of additional notes to cover over-allotments, if any.

JAKKS intends to use the net proceeds from the offering, along with cash on hand, to repurchase all or a portion of its 4.625% convertible senior notes due 2023. In the event JAKKS is unable to repurchase such notes on satisfactory terms, JAKKS may use such proceeds for general corporate purposes.

The notes will be offered to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any other jurisdiction and, unless so registered, may not be offered or sold in the United States except pursuant to an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state laws.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase any of these securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale of the shares of notes in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
