EXPLANATORY NOTE
Issuance of 6.404% Senior Notes due 2029
On November 4, 2024, Marex Group plc (the “Company”) completed its previously announced public offering (the “Offering”) of $600,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 6.404% Senior Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”), pursuant to a selling agent agreement (the “Selling Agent Agreement”), dated October 30, 2024, among the Company and Barclays Capital Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC and Jefferies LLC, as joint book-runners and agents.
The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of October 15, 2024 (the “Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 4, 2024 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between the Company and Citibank, N.A., as trustee. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.404% per year, payable in cash on May 4 and November 4 of each year, commencing on May 4, 2025. The interest payable on the Notes is subject to adjustment from time to time based on the credit ratings assigned by specific rating agencies to the Notes, as described in the Indenture. The Notes will mature on November 4, 2029. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes for working capital, to fund incremental growth and for other general corporate purposes.
The Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at any time or from time to time for cash (i) prior to October 4, 2029, at a certain “make-whole” redemption price (as set forth in the Indenture) and (ii) on or after October 4, 2029, at 100% of the principal amount of such Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. Subject to certain limitations specified in the Indenture, if at any time 75% or more of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes originally issued have been redeemed or purchased by the Company and cancelled pursuant to the Indenture, the Company may redeem all of the remaining outstanding Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of Notes being redeemed, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the redemption date.
If a “Change of Control Triggering Event” (as defined in the Indenture) occurs, holders may require the Company to make an offer, to the holders of the Notes, to repurchase all or any part of their Notes at a price of 101% of the then-outstanding principal amount of the Notes being repurchased, plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the date of repurchase.
The Notes are general senior unsecured obligations of the Company.
The Indenture contains customary covenants, such as maintenance of office or agency and payment of additional amounts . The Notes and the Indenture contain customary events of default, including failure to pay principal or interest, breach of covenants and certain bankruptcy events, all subject to terms, including notice and cure periods, as set forth in the Indenture.
The Notes were sold pursuant to the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1, as amended (File No. 333-282656), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on October 28, 2024, and the Company’s Registration Statement on Form F-1MEF (File No. 333-282911), as filed with the Commission on October 31, 2024, which became effective upon filing in accordance with Rule 462(b) under the Securities Act.
The foregoing description of the Selling Agent Agreement, the Base Indenture, the First Supplemental Indenture, the Notes and other documents relating to this transaction does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of these securities and documents, forms or copies of which are attached as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 6-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
