# Centessa obtains waiver for subsidiary name-change default on Note Purchase Agreement

## Summary
- On Dec 22, 2022, Centessa entered a waiver with lenders for an Event of Default under the Oct 1, 2021 Note Purchase Agreement.
- Default triggered by failure to provide prior written notice of a subsidiary's legal name change on Nov 22, 2022.
- Waiver from Three Peaks Capital Solutions Aggregator Fund and Cocoon SA LLC (Oberland Capital affiliate) avoids loan acceleration and penalties.
- Without waiver, lenders could have accelerated the loan under the Note Purchase Agreement.
