Steinhoff Subsidiary Asks to Bring Forward Maturity Date of Note Program

Steinhoff Services Ltd. is seeking permission to bring forward the maturity date of its 15 billion-South African Rand ($1.2 billion) domestic medium-term note program.

Steinhoff International Holdings NV (SNH.JO) said Wednesday that its wholly-owned subsidiary is asking note holders to give written consent to bring the maturity date forward to Feb. 23, the company said.

If consent is obtained from a majority of note holders, Steinhoff Services Ltd. will redeem the capital outstanding under the program amounting to ZAR7.6 billion, along with accrued interest, the company said.
