Explanatory Note

The Brink’s Company is filing an amendment to its Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 12, 2020 (the “Original Form 8-K”) solely for the purpose of amending and restating Items 1.01 and 2.03 in their entirety to correct an inadvertent error contained therein regarding the Company’s outstanding loans on June 9, 2020. Other than as set forth in this Explanatory Note, this amendment does not amend any other disclosures in the Original Form 8-K.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 9, 2020, The Brink’s Company (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Third Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto. The Amendment relates to the credit agreement, dated as of October 17, 2017, by and among the Company, certain of its subsidiaries, the lenders party thereto and the agents party thereto (as previously amended and as amended by the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”).

The Amendment replaces the maximum consolidated net leverage ratio covenant with a maximum consolidated net first lien leverage ratio covenant, with the covenant level initially set at 4.25 to 1.00 through December 31, 2020, stepping down to 4.00 to 1.00 for the first three quarters of 2021, then 3.75 to 1.00 for the quarter ended December 31, 2021, and 3.50 to 1.00 for each quarter thereafter through the maturity of the Credit Facility in February 2024. Additionally, among other things, the Amendment adds a level in the pricing grid, adds a 75 bps LIBOR floor for revolving loans, amends certain of the leverage ratio definitions to incorporate a netting concept, revises certain provisions relating to incremental facilities, designates the acquisition of the cash business of U.K.-based G4S plc as a “Permitted Acquisition” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and changes the leverage governors for certain of the covenants.

As of the effective date of the Amendment, approximately $1,701 million (U.S. dollar equivalent) of loans were outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The Company and its affiliates regularly engage many of the banks party to the Amendment, among others, to provide other banking services. All of these engagements are negotiated at arm’s length.

This description of the Amendment is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the entire Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

The information required by this item is included in Item 1.01 and incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On June 12, 2020, the Company issued a press release regarding the Amendment. A copy of this release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
