2020 Debt Transactions

In February 2020, the Company completed a private offering of $550.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.0% unsecured senior notes due 2030 (“2030 notes”) at an issue price equal to 100% of par value. The net proceeds from the issuance of the 2030 notes were used together with a borrowing on our $900.0 million revolving credit facility (“2023 facility”) to redeem the remaining $503.9 million in outstanding aggregate principal amount of 5.625% senior secured notes due 2024 (“2024 notes”) and $47.5 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.75% senior secured notes due 2027 (“2027 notes”) and to pay related transaction fees and expenses.  

In connection with the issuance of the 2030 notes, we incurred $8.3 million of various third-party fees and expenses. These costs have been recorded as a reduction to long-term debt and are being amortized over the contractual life of the 2030 notes using the effective interest method.

As the Company concluded that the redemption of the 2024 notes and 2027 notes were debt extinguishments, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of $28.0 million in interest expense in the first quarter of 2020. Of this loss, approximately $22.7 million was attributable to the payment of redemption premiums on the extinguished notes and $5.3 million was attributable to the write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs and debt premium.

Senior Unsecured Notes due 2030

As of March 31, 2020, we have $550.0 million outstanding in aggregate principal amount of the 2030 notes, which mature on March 1, 2030. Interest accrues on the 2030 notes at a rate of 5.00% per annum and is payable semi-annually on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on September 1, 2020.

 

The terms of the 2030 notes are governed by the indenture, dated as of the February 11, 2020 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors named therein and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee. The 2030 notes, subject to certain exceptions, are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior unsecured basis, by each of the Company’s direct and indirect wholly owned subsidiaries (the “Guarantors”) that guarantee its obligations under the Company’s 2023 Facility and existing senior secured term loan facility (the “2024 term loan,” and, together with the 2023 facility, the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) and the 2027 Secured Notes. Subject to certain exceptions, future subsidiaries that guarantee the Senior Secured Credit Facilities, the 2027 notes or certain other indebtedness will also guarantee the 2030 notes.

 

The 2030 notes constitute senior unsecured obligations of the Company and the Guarantors, pari passu in right of payment with all of the existing and future senior indebtedness of the Company, including indebtedness under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the 2027 notes. The 2030 notes are also (i) effectively subordinated to all existing and future secured indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors (including under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and the 2027 notes) to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, (ii) senior to all of the future subordinated indebtedness of the Company and the Guarantors, and (iii) structurally subordinated to any existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities, including preferred stock, of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2030 notes.

 

The Indenture contains restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional debt or issue preferred stock, create liens, create restrictions on the Company’s subsidiaries’ ability to make payments to the Company, pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ capital stock, make certain investments or certain other restricted payments, guarantee indebtedness, designate unrestricted subsidiaries, sell certain kinds of assets, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, and effect mergers and consolidations.

At any time prior to March 1, 2025, the Company may redeem the 2030 notes in whole or in part at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2030 notes plus the “applicable premium” set forth in the Indenture. In addition, at any time prior to March 1, 2023, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2030 notes with the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings, as described in the Indenture, at a price equal to 105.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date.  At any time on or after March 1, 2025, the Company may redeem the 2030 notes at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, holders of the 2030 notes may require it to repurchase all or part of their 2030 notes at 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

Fair Value

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company does not have any financial instruments which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. We have elected to report the value of our 2027 notes, 2030 notes, 2024 term loan and 2023 facility at amortized cost. The fair values of the 2027 notes, 2030 notes and the 2024 term loan at March 31, 2020 were approximately $419.4 million, $503.4 million and $45.6 million, respectively, and were determined using Level 2 inputs based on market prices. The carrying value of the 2023 facility at March 31, 2020 approximates fair value as the rates are comparable to those at which we could currently borrow under similar terms, are variable and incorporate a measure of our credit risk. As such, the fair value of the 2023 facility was also classified as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

We were not in violation of any covenants or restrictions imposed by any of our debt agreements at March 31, 2020.
