Pending Acquisition of Worldpay	Pending Acquisition of Worldpay On March 17, 2019, FIS, Wrangler Merger Sub, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS (“Merger Sub”), and Worldpay, Inc. (“Worldpay”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “merger agreement”) pursuant to which Merger Sub will merge with and into Worldpay (the “merger”), with Worldpay surviving the merger and becoming a wholly owned subsidiary of FIS. Worldpay is a leading payments technology company with unique capability to power global omni-commerce. With an integrated technology platform, Worldpay offers a comprehensive suite of products and services, delivered globally through a single provider. Worldpay processes over 40 billion transactions annually, supporting more than 300 payment types across 146 countries and 126 currencies. Worldpay is focused on expanding into high-growth markets and customer segments, including global eCommerce, integrated payments and B2B. FIS and Worldpay have complementary solutions and services, and clients will benefit from our combined global payment capabilities, robust risk and fraud solutions and advanced data analytics. Under the terms of the merger agreement, FIS will acquire 100 percent of the equity of Worldpay. At the closing, Worldpay shareholders will receive approximately 289 million shares of FIS common stock and $3.4 billion in cash, subject to certain adjustments, using an exchange ratio of 0.9287 FIS shares plus $11.00 in cash for each share of Worldpay. In addition, FIS expects to repay approximately $7.4 billion in Worldpay debt in connection with the merger, although depending on market conditions it may choose to leave outstanding some or all of Worldpay’s existing notes in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.7 billion, which would reduce the amount of permanent financing FIS would seek to raise, as discussed below. The combination of stock and cash values Worldpay at an enterprise value of approximately $43 billion, including the repayment/assumption of Worldpay debt of approximately $7.4 billion. Upon closing, FIS shareholders will own approximately 53 percent and Worldpay shareholders will own approximately 47 percent of the combined company on a fully diluted basis. The acquisition is subject to receipt of required regulatory and stockholder approvals and other customary closing conditions. The merger is not subject to a financing condition. FIS expects to close the acquisition in the third quarter of 2019. In connection with the merger, on March 17, 2019, FIS entered into a bridge facility commitment letter (the “original commitment letter”), with Barclays Bank PLC, Goldman Sachs Bank USA and Goldman Sachs Lending Partners LLC (the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders committed to provide a 364-day senior unsecured bridge term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $9.5 billion (the “bridge facility”), consisting of (i) a $2.0 billion tranche (the “amendment tranche”) to backstop an amendment to FIS’ existing Revolving Credit Facility, dated September 21, 2018, as defined in Note 7, to permit the borrowing of revolving loans thereunder up to $2.0 billion (the “specified revolving loans”), on a limited conditionality basis consistent with the conditions precedent to funding under the bridge facility and (ii) a $7.5 billion tranche (the “capital markets tranche”). The capital markets tranche of the bridge facility was established for the purpose of refinancing certain outstanding indebtedness of Worldpay and its subsidiaries on the closing date, financing a portion of the merger consideration, and paying fees and expenses related to the merger, the refinancing and the related transactions. FIS intends to replace the capital markets tranche of the bridge facility prior to the closing of the merger with permanent financing, which we currently expect to include debt securities, commercial paper and/or revolving credit borrowings. On March 29, 2019, FIS and certain financial institutions party to the existing Revolving Credit Facility entered into an amendment to the existing Revolving Credit Facility to, among other things, permit the borrowing of the specified revolving loans on a limited conditionality basis consistent with the conditions precedent to funding under the bridge facility and, in connection with the entry into such amendment, the commitments in respect of the amendment tranche of the bridge facility were automatically and permanently reduced to zero. The specified revolving loans may also be used to refinance certain outstanding indebtedness of Worldpay and its subsidiaries on the closing date, finance a portion of the merger consideration and pay fees and expenses related to the merger, the refinancing and the related transactions. On April 5, 2019, FIS and certain financial institutions party to the existing Revolving Credit Facility entered into a second amendment to the existing Revolving Credit Facility to permit FIS to exclude indebtedness issued or incurred for the purpose of financing any acquisition that utilizes at least $1.5 billion of debt financing from the calculation of the maximum leverage ratio permitted thereunder prior to the consummation of such acquisition or the termination of the acquisition agreement with respect thereto; provided that such acquisition financing includes provisions requiring its repayment if the acquisition is not completed. The funding of the capital markets tranche of the bridge facility on the closing date is subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of certain conditions set forth in the commitment letter, including, among others, completion of the merger substantially concurrent with the funding of the bridge facility, the non-occurrence of a material adverse effect (as defined in the merger agreement) with respect to Worldpay, delivery of certain financial statements of FIS and Worldpay, the accuracy (subject to certain materiality qualifiers) of certain representations and warranties, the execution and delivery of definitive documentation and other customary conditions more fully set forth in the commitment letter. The conditions precedent to the funding of the specified revolving loans under the existing Revolving Credit Facility on the closing date are substantially the same as the conditions precedent to the funding of the bridge facility on the closing date.
