SandRidge Energy, declared that the Company has reached privately negotiated purchase and exchange agreements under which it will repurchase $100 million aggregate principal amount of its senior unsecured notes for $30 million cash and exchange $300 million of senior unsecured notes into convertible notes.

McDonald’s Corp., trying to revive flagging sales, is calling the rollout of all-day breakfast in the U.S. a success and telling franchisees to prepare for the next course: a national value plan, according to Bloomberg.
Regaining our dominance in value by aligning around a national value platform and the power of Opnad is the next step, Mike Andres, the restaurant chain’s U.S. president, wrote last week in an e-mail to domestic franchisees and employees that was obtained by Bloomberg. Opnad is McDonald’s national advertising fund that comprises contributions from franchise owners.
The chain, planned to report third-quarter earnings next week, is trying to ignite a turnaround after seven straight quarters of declining U.S. same-store sales.

McDonald’s also is trying to simplify its menu and kitchens to speed customer service at its about 14,300 domestic locations.
