&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The proceeds will be used by Atento and its subsidiaries to make certain payments under financing agreements as well as to finance transaction costs.

Subject to the fulfillment of customary conditions precedent, including certain third-party consents, this latest transaction is expected to provide Atento with additional operating liquidity and financial flexibility in the coming months, while Atento continues to advance the transformation of its operational core and to further strengthen its financial position in the medium term.

Atento intends to pay coupon payment obligations under its senior secured notes due 2026 and all associated hedge payments upon completion of the new financing.

Atento intends to disclose further details of the transaction, including copies of the relevant agreements, in the coming days.
