Change of control offer

  1. An offer made by a borrower/issuer to repay loans or repurchase securities following the occurence of a change in control. Often a covenant will require that a borrower/issuer make a change of control offer. It is softer than a change of control default but still results in the functional equivalent of an accelerated payment on an obligation.
