Senior Secured Notes due 2031
In June 2025, the company completed a private placement offering of $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due 2031 (the 2031 Notes). The 2031 Notes will pay interest semiannually on January 15 and July 15, commencing on January 15, 2026, and will mature on January 15, 2031, unless earlier repurchased or redeemed by the company. The 2031 Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Unisys Holding Corporation, Unisys AP Investment Company I and Unisys NPL, Inc., each a Delaware corporation that is directly or indirectly wholly owned by the company (the Subsidiary Guarantors). The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes, together with cash on hand, were used to finance the company’s tender offer to purchase for cash any and all of its outstanding 6.875% Senior Secured Notes due November 1, 2027 (the 2027 Notes) and solicitation of consents from holders of the 2027 Notes to amendments to the indenture governing the 2027 Notes (the Tender Offer) and the payment of related premiums, fees and expenses. The company also used the net proceeds from the issuance of the 2031 Notes to redeem, on or about November 1, 2025, any 2027 Notes that remain outstanding following the Tender Offer, as explained under the Senior Secured Notes due
2027 section below, and to fund, together with cash on hand, a portion of the company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans deficit and postretirement liabilities. See Note 3 for additional details on the discretionary contribution to the company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans.
The 2031 Notes and the guarantees by the Subsidiary Guarantors rank equally in right of payment with all of the existing and future senior debt of the company and the Subsidiary Guarantors and senior in right of payment to any future subordinated debt of the company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. The 2031 Notes and the guarantees are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including preferred stock, trade payables and pension liabilities) of the subsidiaries of the company that are not Subsidiary Guarantors. The 2031 Notes and the guarantees are secured by liens on substantially all assets of the company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, other than certain excluded assets (the collateral). The liens securing the 2031 Notes on certain Asset Based Lending (ABL) collateral are subordinated to the liens on ABL collateral in favor of the ABL secured parties, subject to certain limitations and permitted liens.
The company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time on or after January 15, 2028 at a redemption price determined in accordance with the redemption schedule set forth in the indenture relating to the 2031 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
Prior to January 15, 2028, the company may, at its option, redeem some or all of the 2031 Notes at any time, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes redeemed plus a “make-whole” premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The company may also redeem, at its option, up to 40% of the 2031 Notes at any time prior to January 15, 2028, using the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price of 110.625% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. On or after January 15, 2028, the company may, on any one or more occasions, redeem all or part of the 2031 Notes at specified redemption premiums, declining to par for any redemptions on or after January 15, 2030. Prior to January 15, 2028, the company may redeem up to 10% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes during each calendar year, commencing in 2025, at a purchase price equal to 103% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
The indenture relating to the 2031 Notes contains covenants that limit the ability of the company and its restricted subsidiaries (as defined therein) to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness and guarantee indebtedness; (ii) pay dividends or make other distributions or repurchase or redeem its capital stock; (iii) prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt; (iv) make loans and investments (including investments by the company and the Subsidiary Guarantors in subsidiaries that are not guarantors); (v) sell assets; (vi) create or incur liens; (vii) enter into transactions with affiliates; (viii) enter into agreements restricting its subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; and (ix) consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets. These covenants are subject to several important limitations and exceptions.
If the company experiences certain kinds of changes of control (as defined in the indenture), it must offer to purchase the 2031 Notes at 101% of the principal amount of the 2031 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. In addition, if the company sells assets under certain circumstances, it must apply the proceeds of such sales towards an offer to repurchase the 2031 Notes at a price equal to par plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any.
The indenture also provides for events of default, which, if any of them occur, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all the then outstanding 2031 Notes to be due and payable immediately.
Interest expense related to the 2031 Notes is comprised of the following:

Senior Secured Notes due 2027
As of December 31, 2024, the company had $485.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 2027 Notes. Interest on the 2027 Notes is payable semi-annually on May 1 and November 1. On June 11, 2025, the company commenced the Tender Offer. The purchase price offered per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer was $1,006.25, which included an early tender premium of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of 2027 Notes. Concurrent with the closing of the issuance of the 2031 Notes, the company paid an aggregate amount of $488.6 million, including $3.0 million of early tender premium and $5.5 million of accrued interest and other expenses through June 27, 2025, to purchase $480.1 million of aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 2027 Notes tender in the Tender Offer.
On June 27, 2025, the company satisfied and discharged the indenture relating to the 2027 Notes, issued a notice of redemption for its remaining outstanding principal amount, and deposited U.S. government securities with the trustee of the 2027 Notes to
cover the remaining outstanding aggregate principal amount of $4.9 million, plus accrued but unpaid interest on the 2027 Notes to be redeemed to, but not including, the redemption date.
As a result of the satisfaction and discharge, the indenture relating to the 2027 Notes ceased to be of further effect except as to rights of registration of transfer or exchange of 2027 Notes which survive until all 2027 Notes have been canceled and the rights, protections and immunities of the trustee, as expressly provided for in the indenture relating to the 2027 Notes.
The satisfaction and discharge of the 2027 Notes resulted in a loss on debt extinguishment of $6.8 million, reported in other (expense), net, which included the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $3.8 million and an early tender premium of $3.0 million paid to repurchase a portion of the 2027 Notes.

Asset Based Lending (ABL) Credit Facility
Concurrently with the issuance of the 2031 Notes, the company entered into an amendment of the company’s secured revolving credit facility (the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility) that extended the maturity date from October 2027 to June 2030 and modified certain other terms and covenants. The secured revolving credit facility continues to provide for revolving loans and letters of credit up to an aggregate amount of $125.0 million (with a limit on letters of credit of $40.0 million), with an uncommitted accordion feature allowing for the aggregate amount available to be increased up to $155.0 million upon the satisfaction of certain specified conditions.
Availability under the credit facility is subject to a borrowing base calculated by reference to the company’s receivables. At June 30, 2025, the company had no borrowings and $8.3 million of letters of credit outstanding. Availability under the credit facility was $99.1 million, net of letters of credit issued.
The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility is subject to a springing maturity, under which the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility will immediately mature 91 days prior to any date on which contributions to pension funds in the United States in an amount in excess of $100.0 million are required to be paid unless the company is able to meet certain conditions, including that the company has the liquidity (as defined in the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility) to cash settle the amount of such pension payments, as applicable, no default or event of default has occurred under the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility, the company’s liquidity is above $130.0 million and the company is in compliance with the then applicable fixed charge coverage ratio on a pro forma basis.
The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility is guaranteed by the subsidiary guarantors and any future material domestic subsidiaries. The facility is secured by the assets of the company and the subsidiary guarantors, other than certain excluded assets, under a security agreement entered into by the company and the subsidiary guarantors in favor of Bank of America, N.A., as agent for the lenders under the credit facility.
The company is required to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio if the availability under the Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility falls below the greater of 10% of the lenders’ commitments under the facility and $12.5 million.
The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility contains customary representations and warranties, including, but not limited to, that there has been no material adverse change in the company’s business, properties, operations or financial condition. The Amended and Restated ABL Credit Facility includes restrictions on the ability of the company and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur other debt or liens, dispose of assets and make acquisitions, loans and investments, repurchase its equity, and prepay other debt. These restrictions are subject to several important limitations and exceptions. Events of default include non-payment, failure to comply with covenants, materially incorrect representations and warranties, change of control and default under other debt aggregating at least $50.0 million, subject to relevant cure periods, as applicable.
At June 30, 2025, the company has met all covenants and conditions under its various lending and funding agreements. For at least the next 12 months, the company expects to continue to meet these covenants and conditions.
