The company said the debt securities would be issued as additional 5.875 percent senior notes that are due in 2022 under an indenture dated May 16. Both the 2022 notes offered by Dish DBS Corp. and the 2022 notes issued under the indenture will be treated as a single class of debt securities under the indenture.

   Dish said the net proceeds of the debt sale would be used for general corporate purposes. This offering is expected to close July 26, subject to customary conditions.
