(the “Company”) entered into that certain Incremental Amendment (Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement) (the “Amendment”), by and among the Company, its subsidiaries signatory thereto, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., in its capacity as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), amending that certain Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Agreement, dated as of October 30, 2015 (as previously amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the subsidiaries from time to time party thereto, as guarantors, the lenders from time to time party thereto and the Administrative Agent.

 

Pursuant to the Amendment, the Company borrowed an additional $500 million of incremental loans under a new tranche of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loan Facility”). The terms of the loans under the Incremental Term Loan Facility are substantially similar to those relating to the loans outstanding under the Term Loan Credit Agreement prior to giving effect to the Amendment, except with respect to issue price, the interest rate applicable to the Company’s borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan Facility, prepayment premiums in connection with certain voluntary prepayments thereof, and certain other provisions.

 

The interest rate margin applicable to the Incremental Term Loan Facility is 1.50%, in the case of base rate loans, and 2.50%, in the case of LIBOR loans. Proceeds from borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan Facility will be used (i) for general corporate purposes, including to fund purchases of equity interests of the Company and (ii) to pay fees and expenses relating to, or in connection with the transactions contemplated by, the Amendment. The incremental loans under the Incremental Term Loan Facility were issued at a price of 99.50% of par.
