On-The-Bubble Corporation, a US company, plans to issue $100,000,000 in par value of new 10-year maturity, 0% coupon rate, senior unsecured bonds. The issue would be priced at 68-00 (68% of par value) and the $68,000,000 proceeds from this issue will be exactly enough money to fund an exciting new project.
