Senior Term Loan Due 2022

In October 2018, the Company entered into a term loan agreement with Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A. (“Rabobank”) in the amount of €150.0 million (or approximately $176.1 million as of March 31, 2021). The Company is permitted to prepay the term loan before its maturity date of October 28, 2022. Interest is payable on the term loan quarterly in arrears at an annual rate equal to the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating.

Credit Facility

In October 2018, the Company entered into a multi-currency revolving credit facility of $800.0 million. The credit facility expires on October 17, 2023. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the credit facility, at the Company’s option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.875% based on the Company’s credit rating. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the revolving credit facility and had the ability to borrow approximately $800.0 million under the revolving credit facility.

On April 9, 2020, the Company entered into an amendment to its credit facility to include incremental term loans (“2020 term loans”) that allow the Company to borrow aggregate principal amounts of €235.0 million and $267.5 million (or an aggregate of approximately $543.3 million as of March 31, 2021). Amounts can be drawn incrementally at any time prior to maturity, but must be drawn down proportionately. Amounts drawn must be in a minimum principal amount of $100.0 million and integral multiples of $50.0 million in excess thereof. Once amounts have been repaid, those amounts are not permitted to be re-drawn. The maturity date of the 2020 term loans is April 8, 2022. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding under the 2020 term loans, at the Company's option, at either (1) LIBOR plus a margin based on the Company's credit rating ranging from 1.125% to 2.125% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 1.375% to 2.375% thereafter, or (2) the base rate, which is equal to the higher of (i) the administrative agent’s base lending rate for the applicable currency, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, and (iii) one-month LIBOR for loans denominated in U.S. dollars plus 1.0%, plus a margin based on the Company’s credit rating ranging from 0.125% to 1.375% until April 8, 2021 and ranging from 0.375% to 1.375% thereafter. The 2020 term loans contain covenants restricting, among other things, the incurrence of indebtedness and the making of certain payments, including dividends. The Company also has to fulfill financial covenants with respect to a total debt to EBITDA ratio and an interest coverage ratio. On April 15, 2020, the Company borrowed €117.5 million and $133.8 million of 2020 term loans. The Company simultaneously repaid €100.0 million (or approximately $108.7 million) of its revolving credit facility from the borrowings received. There were no other borrowings on the 2020 term loans subsequent to the initial borrowings in April 2020. On February 16, 2021, the Company repaid the 2020 term loans of €117.5 million and $133.8 million (or an aggregate of approximately $276.0 million as of February 16, 2021). As of March 31, 2021, the Company had the ability to borrow €117.5 million and $133.7 million (or an aggregate of approximately $271.6 million) of 2020 term loans.

Interest on U.S. dollar borrowings under the Company’s credit facility and the 2020 term loans is calculated based upon LIBOR. In the event that LIBOR is no longer published, interest will be calculated upon either a base rate or the secured overnight financing rate depending on cost. The credit facility and 2020 term loans also provide for an expedited amendment process once a replacement for LIBOR is established.

1.002% Senior Term Loan Due 2025

On January 25, 2019, the Company borrowed €250.0 million (or approximately $293.4 million as of March 31, 2021) from the European Investment Bank. The loan matures on January 24, 2025. The Company is permitted to prepay the term loan before its maturity date. Interest is payable on the term loan at 1.002% per annum, payable semi-annually in arrears.

Of the 2016 term loans, an aggregate amount of €56.0 million (or approximately $61.1 million) was repaid upon maturity of two term loan agreements in October 2019.

In aggregate, the Company has indebtedness of €657.0 million (or approximately $771.1 million as of March 31, 2021) through this group of twelve remaining related term loan agreements. The provisions of the term loan agreements are substantially identical, with the exception of interest rate terms and maturities. The Company is permitted to prepay the term loans before their maturity dates. For the term loans with a fixed interest rate, interest is payable in arrears on an annual basis, with interest rates ranging from 0.70% to 2.26% and maturity dates between August 2021 and August 2028. For the term loans with a floating interest rate, interest is payable in arrears on a semi-annual basis, with interest rates based on the EURIBOR plus a margin ranging from 0.70% to 1.25% and maturity dates between August 2021 and August 2025.
