The Phoenix Companies, Inc. (“Phoenix” or the “company”) (NYSE:PNX) today announced the successful consent solicitation of bondholders holding its 7.45% Quarterly Interest Bonds due 2032 (CUSIP 71902E 20 8) (NYSE:PFX) to amend the indenture governing the bonds. The consents received represent approximately 70% of the outstanding principal amount.

The approved amendment is in connection with Phoenix’s previously announced agreement to be acquired by Nassau Reinsurance Group Holdings, L.P. and become its privately held, wholly owned subsidiary. Completion of the consent solicitation is not a condition to closing.

If the merger is consummated and the bonds are delisted, the company will no longer be required to file SEC Reports with the SEC and will not be required to file reports with the bond’s trustee or the SEC pursuant to the terms of the Indenture or the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

The amendment would require the company to deliver to the trustee and make available to bondholders certain annual financial statements, quarterly financial statements and reports on certain current events. The consent solicitation statement, as supplemented, contains more detail on how bondholders and other designated parties can access financial statements and other information after the company is no longer required to file reports with the SEC.
