Alfa, S.A.B. de C.V. announced the successful receipt of requisite consents from holders of approximately 89.85% of its outstanding 6.875% Senior Notes due 2044. This allows the company to execute a supplemental indenture to amend the original indenture governing the Notes. The company will pay an Early Consent Fee of US$10.00 per US$1,000.00 principal amount to eligible holders who delivered valid consents before the Early Consent Deadline.
Additionally, Alfa plans to have Sigma Alimentos, S.A. de C.V. and certain subsidiaries provide a full and irrevocable guarantee of the Notes. Due to strong support, all outstanding Notes will benefit from these guarantees, maintaining the existing CUSIP numbers. The proposed amendments will become operative upon satisfaction of conditions, including shareholder approval of the spin-off of Alpek, S.A.B. de C.V.
