Private Placement of US$400 million of 6.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2022.
Entry into Purchase Agreement
On July 27, 2017, Atento Luxco 1 S.A. (“Atento Luxco 1” or the “Issuer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Atento S.A. (the “Registrant” or “Atento”), entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), with Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as representatives of the several initial purchasers named therein, for the issuance and sale by the Issuer of US$400 million aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the “Notes”) in a private placement transaction (the “Private Placement”). The Notes will be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by certain of Atento’s wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”), and the Notes and the guarantees will be secured, subject to permitted liens and other limitations, by a first-priority lien on the capital stock of the Issuer and each of the Guarantors within 120 days following the issuance of the Notes. Atento S.A. and Atalaya Luxco Midco S.à r.l. will guarantee the Notes but will not be considered guarantors for any purposes under the indenture that will govern the Notes and therefore will not be subject to the covenants in the indenture otherwise applicable to guarantors. The Notes were priced at 100% of their principal amount and will mature on August 10, 2022.
The offering is expected to close on August 10, 2017, subject to customary closing conditions. The Issuer intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem all of the Issuer’s outstanding 7.375% Senior Secured Notes due 2020 and all of the existing debentures due 2019 of its subsidiary Atento Brasil.
The description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference and attached to this report asExhibit 1.1.
Press Release
On July 28, 2017, the Atento issued a press release announcing the pricing of the Private Placement, the text of which is set forth asExhibit 99.1.
