Key Terms of the 2026 Term Loan Facility
- Principal Amount: $810 million incremental senior secured term loans (the "Extended B-2026 Term Loans").
- Maturity Date: October 2, 2033 (7-year maturity).
- Interest Rate: At the Company's election, either:
- Term SOFR + 1.50%, or
- Alternative Base Rate (ABR) + 0.50%.
- Amortization: 1.00% per annum paid in equal quarterly installments, with the remaining balance due upon maturity.
- Prepayment Terms: Voluntarily prepayable without penalty or premium, subject to customary SOFR breakage costs and a 1.00% repricing premium if repriced within six months of closing.
- Guarantees and Collateral: Obligations are guaranteed by certain domestic subsidiaries and secured by capital stock of subsidiaries and substantially all non-real estate assets.
Use of Proceeds
Borrowings from the facility, combined with cash on hand, were allocated to:
- Full Repayment: Existing term loans maturing on November 22, 2028 (the Existing B-2021 Term Loans), including cashless rollovers.
- Partial Prepayment: $100 million principal prepayment of existing term loans maturing October 3, 2031 (the Replacement B-2024 Term Loans), which eliminates mandatory scheduled amortization payments on those loans prior to their maturity date.
- Revolver Paydown: Prepayment of outstanding borrowings under the Company's asset-based revolving credit facility (ABL Facility).
- Transaction Expenses: Payment of associated financing and legal fees.
Balance Sheet & Market Impact
