By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Nov. 5 – Agile Property Holdings Ltd. said it secured the needed consents to amend its 8 3/8% senior notes due 2019 and 6½% senior notes due 2017.

As a result, Agile executed the supplemental indentures to the notes on Thursday, which bring some of the note terms into conformity with those of its $500 million of 9% senior notes due 2020, according to a company announcement.

The amendments give the company more flexibility to pursue business opportunities, Agile said.

The consent solicitation ended at 11 a.m. ET on Nov. 4. It began Oct. 21.

As previously noted, the company held a similar consent solicitation in June. The changes proposed by the latest consent solicitation will make clarifications and conforming amendments to the provision in the indentures related to debt, among other provisions.

The consent fee is $3.75 for each $1,000 principal amount of 8 3/8% notes and RMB 37.50 for each RMB 10,000 principal amount of 6½% notes.

The consent solicitation was conditioned on the receipt of consents from the holders of at least a majority of the notes.

The solicitation agents are Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corp. Ltd.
