Item 1 — Information Contained in this Form 6-K Report
On June 14, 2021, Atlas Corp. (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that on June 11, 2021, it completed an exchange (the “Exchange”) of an aggregate of $300,000,000 million of senior notes of Seaspan Corporation, its wholly-owned subsidiary (“Seaspan”), which are held by certain affiliates of Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited (the “Fairfax Holders”), for 12,000,000 shares of a new series of preferred stock designated as Series J Preferred Shares, par value $0.01 (the “Preferred Shares”), of the Company and 1,000,000 warrants to purchase common shares, par value $0.01 (the “Warrants”), of Atlas. The notes subject to the Exchange consist of $200,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 5.50% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), being all of the outstanding 2027 Notes. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this report.
In connection with the Exchange, the Fairfax Holders agreed to amend the terms of Seaspan’s 5.50% Senior Notes due 2025 and the 2026 Notes that remain outstanding following the Exchange to, among other things, eliminate the mandatory redemption and put rights and release and discharge all outstanding guarantees and liens on collateral thereunder. The Fairfax Holders also agreed to terminate Seaspan’s Amended and Restated Pledge and Collateral Agent Agreement (the “Pledge Agreement”) and to release and discharge all outstanding liens on collateral under the Pledge Agreement. The 2026 Notes and the 2027 Notes that were exchanged were cancelled following completion of the Exchange.
The Company concurrently entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”) with the Fairfax Holders providing for certain registration rights related to the Preferred Shares and the Warrants.
