The Amendment amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of August 4, 2017 (as amended, restated, supplanted or otherwise modified from time to time prior to the Effective Date, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the other borrowers from time to time party thereto, the guarantors from time to time party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swingline lender and letter of credit issuer, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, and provides for, among other things, (i) an upsized revolving credit facility in an aggregate committed amount of $1.0 billion (the “Revolving Facility”), which represents an increase of $150 million from the existing revolving credit facility and which matures on September 30, 2030 and (ii) certain other modifications to the Existing Credit Agreement as further set forth in the Amendment. In connection with the Amendment, (i) all of the outstanding term loans (including accrued and unpaid interest thereon) and (ii) all accrued and unpaid interest and fees on the outstanding revolving loans, in each case, under the Existing Credit Agreement were repaid in full.
Borrowings under the Revolving Facility will bear interest at a rate per annum based on the Company’s Consolidated Total Net Leverage Ratio according to the pricing grid set forth below. Initially, the applicable rate shall be determined based upon Pricing Level 2.
