Notes Offering
On June 4, 2024, Genpact Luxembourg S.à r.l. (“Genpact Luxembourg”) and Genpact USA, Inc. (“Genpact USA”), indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Genpact Limited (“Genpact”), completed their previously announced underwritten public offering (the “Notes Offering”) of $400 million aggregate principal amount of their 6.000% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes are Genpact Luxembourg’s and Genpact USA’s senior unsecured indebtedness and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Genpact. The 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture dated as of March 26, 2021 (the “Base Indenture”) among Genpact Luxembourg, Genpact USA, Genpact and Computershare Trust Company, National Association (as successor to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association), as trustee (the “Trustee”), and a second supplemental indenture dated as of June 4, 2024 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”).
The 2029 Notes have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to an effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-265204), as supplemented by the prospectus supplement dated May 30, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act.
In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Notes, Genpact, Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA entered into an Underwriting Agreement dated as of May 30, 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA, as co-issuers, Genpact, as guarantor, and the representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the “Underwriters”), pursuant to which Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA agreed to issue and sell the 2029 Notes to the Underwriters. For a complete description of the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, please refer to the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference.
The 2029 Notes will mature on June 4, 2029. Interest on the 2029 Notes accrues at the rate of 6.000% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 4 and December 4 of each year, commencing on December 4, 2024.
The 2029 Notes and the related guarantee are general unsecured obligations of Genpact Luxembourg, Genpact USA and Genpact, as applicable, and will be pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior indebtedness of such entities, will be effectively subordinated to all future secured indebtedness of such entities to the extent of the value of the assets securing that indebtedness and will be senior in right of payment to all future subordinated indebtedness of such entities. The 2029 Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other liabilities of subsidiaries of Genpact (other than Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA) that do not guarantee the 2029 Notes, including the liabilities of certain subsidiaries pursuant to Genpact’s senior credit facility.
Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes prior to May 4, 2029 at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, plus an applicable “make-whole” premium. Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes on or after May 4, 2029 at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date.
The 2029 Notes are subject to certain customary covenants, including limitations on the ability of Genpact and certain of its subsidiaries, including Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA, with significant exceptions, (i) to incur debt secured by liens; (ii) to engage in certain sale and leaseback transactions; and (iii) to consolidate, merge, convey or transfer their assets substantially as an entirety. In addition, pursuant to a customary change of control covenant, upon a change of control repurchase event, Genpact Luxembourg and Genpact USA will be required to make an offer to repurchase the 2029 Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such 2029 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the date of repurchase.
Genpact intends to use the net proceeds from the Notes Offering for general corporate purposes, which may include repaying or redeeming Genpact Luxembourg’s outstanding 3.375% senior notes due 2024 at or prior to their maturity on December 1, 2024.
The foregoing descriptions of the Base Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the 2029 Notes are qualified in their entirety by reference to the actual terms of the respective documents. Copies of the Underwriting Agreement, the Base Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the form of the 2029 Notes are attached as Exhibits 1.1, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 hereto, respectively, and each is incorporated by reference herein.
