ITEM 1.01.
ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
On October 2, 2019, in connection with the previously announced solicitation of consents by Natura Cosméticos S.A. (“Natura”) on behalf of Avon Products, Inc. (“Avon”) to amend the indenture governing Avon’s outstanding 6.950% Notes due 2043 (the “Indenture”), Avon and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as trustee under the Indenture, entered into a supplemental indenture to the Indenture. The Supplemental Indenture was executed following receipt of the requisite consents, and amends the change of control definition in the Indenture to provide that the previously announced transaction pursuant to which Avon will become a wholly owned direct subsidiary of Natura &Co Holding will not constitute a change of control under the Indenture.
The foregoing description of the Supplemental Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Supplemental Indenture, attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
ITEM 3.03.
MATERIAL MODIFICATION TO RIGHTS OF SECURITY HOLDERS.
