J.P. Morgan and BofA Merrill Lynch were the underwriters for the offering. The net proceeds of the offering was used to redeem The Nature Conservancy’s outstanding 6.30 percent Bonds due July 1, 2019. The Nature Conservancy was established in 1951, and its mission is to conserve the lands and waters on which all life depends.
