NCR Atleos has initiated a consent solicitation from holders of its 9.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2029. This action is a critical step to amend the indenture governing these notes, specifically to ensure that the previously announced merger with The Brink's Company does not trigger a 'Change of Control' event. While the merger is not conditioned on the success of this solicitation, securing these amendments is crucial for a smooth transaction and to avoid potential financial complications or accelerated debt repayment. Noteholders who provide consent will receive a payment of $1.25 per $1,000 principal amount, contingent on the merger's closing.
