Eighth Supplemental Indenture
In June, Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (the Company) entered into a supplemental indenture (the Eighth Supplemental
Indenture) to amend the terms of the indenture governing its 11.25% senior secured notes due 2022 (2022 Senior Secured Notes) following its receipt of consents from bondholders representing a majority in aggregate principal amount
(the Consenting Noteholders) of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes. No consent fee was paid by the Company to the Consenting Noteholders in connection with the consents obtained to the Eighth Supplemental Indenture.
The Eighth Supplemental Indenture eliminates the Companys obligation to make a springing maturity offer for the 2022 Senior Secured
Notes upon the pro rata redemption, at par, of $100.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes (the Redemption). The Redemption will be funded through (i) the sale of a vessel currently pledged as
collateral in respect of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and (ii) the borrowing of approximately $75.0 million from Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation (the Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation Loan Facility).
The Eighth Supplemental Indenture also (i) clarifies that all past dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral for the
2022 Senior Secured Notes and any future dividends paid in respect of equity pledged as collateral (other than equity of Navios South American Logistics Inc. (Navios Logistics)) can be used by the Company for general corporate purposes,
absent a Default or Event of Default; (ii) provides that future dividends paid in respect of equity of Navios Logistics pledged as collateral for the 2022 Senior Secured Notes may be used only to redeem or repurchase 2022 Senior Secured Notes;
(iii) states that the Company may, subject to the occurrence of the Redemption, agree to the cancellation of amounts it owes to Grimaud Ventures S.A. (Grimaud) under that certain loan agreement dated as of April 25, 2019 (as
amended) (the Grimaud Loan) in lieu of the receipt of pro rata cash dividends from Navios Logistics (the Cancellation); (iv) permits the lender under the Navios Shipmanagement Holdings Corporation Loan Facility to take a
second lien on the pledged share collateral (which pledged share collateral secures the 2022 Senior Secured Notes on a first lien basis); and (v) provides that the 2022 Senior Secured Notes will be provided with a first lien security interest
in the 7.375% Ship Mortgage Notes that secure the Grimaud Loan as of the date of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture no later than fifteen calendar days following the Cancellation.

2020 between the Company and the Lender, (ii) redeeming certain of the 2022 Senior Secured Notes and for (iii) general corporate purposes.
