On September 22, 2026, Open Text Corporation (“OpenText” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing that the Company (i) has issued a conditional notice of redemption with respect to $1.0 billion principal amount of its outstanding 6.900% Senior Secured Notes due 2027 (the “2027 Notes”), providing for the redemption in full of such 2027 Notes on October 2, 2026, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, including a financing condition as described therein and (ii) is exploring a potential offering of senior secured notes pursuant to Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) and Regulation S (“Regulation S”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). A copy of the press release is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, and the information contained in Exhibit 99.1 is incorporated herein by reference into this Item 8.01.
In addition, the Company is currently in the process of seeking to amend its revolving credit agreement (the “Revolver Amendment”). The Company expects that the Revolver Amendment will, among other things, extend the maturity of the revolving credit agreement. The Revolver Amendment remains subject to the execution of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary closing conditions. If and when entered into, the full text of the Revolver Amendment will be filed as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K.
This filing shall not constitute a notice of redemption under the indenture governing the 2027 Notes, and such redemption is subject to the conditions set forth in the applicable notice of redemption, including the financing condition described therein. Such notice has been made only in accordance with the provisions of the indenture governing the 2027 Notes. There can be no assurances as to whether any such redemption will be effected as described above.
This filing shall not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of, the senior secured notes (if such offering proceeds) in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration, qualification or exemption under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction. Any such notes offering will not be registered under the Securities Act. Any such notes may not be offered or sold within the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons, except to persons reasonably believed to be qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A and to certain persons in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S.
