On August 14, 2015, the Company commenced a cash tender offer for any and all of the 2020 Notes for a price equal to $1,037.88 per $1,000 principal amount, plus accrued interest (the “Tender Offer”). The Tender Offer expired on August 27, 2015 and on August 28, 2015, we retired an aggregate of $192.9 million principal amount of 2020 Notes pursuant to the Tender Offer. On September 1, 2015, the Company issued a notice of redemption for the balance of $207.1 million principal amount of 2020 Notes that remained outstanding after the Tender Offer, with a redemption date of October 1, 2015. On September 23, 2015, pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Note Indenture, we satisfied and discharged the $207.1 million principal amount of the 2020 Notes that remained outstanding by irrevocably depositing with a trustee, prior to the redemption date, sufficient funds to repurchase all such 2020 Notes at a redemption price of $1,033.75 (plus accrued and unpaid interest through September 30, 2015) for each $1,000 aggregate principal amount. The 2020 Notes were subsequently redeemed by the trustee on October 1, 2015.

We recognized a total loss on our early extinguishment of debt of approximately $19.6 million, consisting primarily of a redemption premium of $14.3 million and a $4.9 million non-cash write-off of unamortized deferred financing costs. This loss has been recorded in “Loss on early extinguishment of debt” within the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

On August 19, 2015, we repaid the remaining $11.0 million balance of notes payable to the former shareholders of FS Asia Advisory Limited (formerly Ferrier Hodgson Hong Kong Group), which we acquired in 2010.

On June 26, 2015, we entered into a credit agreement (the “2015 Credit Agreement”), which effectively amended and extended our prior credit agreement, dated November 27, 2012 (the “2012 Credit Agreement”). The 2012 Credit Agreement provided for a five-year $350 million senior secured revolving line of credit maturing on November 27, 2017. The 2015 Credit Agreement provides for a $550 million senior secured revolving line of credit (the “Credit Facility”) maturing on September 26, 2020. We did not incur any early termination or prepayment penalties in connection with the replacement of the 2012 Credit Agreement. At the Company’s option, borrowings under the Credit Facility will bear interest at either one, two or three month LIBOR or an alternative base rate, in each case plus the applicable margin. Borrowings will initially bear interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% per annum, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, or at the alternate base rate plus 0.75% per annum, in the case of base rate loans. After delivering the compliance certificate for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2015, the applicable margin will fluctuate between 1.375% per annum and 2.00% per annum, in the case of LIBOR borrowings, or between 0.375% per annum and 1.00% per annum, in the case of base rate borrowings, in each case, based upon the Company’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2015 Credit Agreement) at such time.

We will initially be required to pay a commitment fee of 0.30% per annum on the daily unused amount of the facility and a letter of credit fronting fee of 1.75% per annum on the maximum amount available to be drawn under each letter of credit that is issued and outstanding. After delivering the compliance certificate for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2015, the commitment fee rate will fluctuate between 0.25% and 0.35% per annum and the letter of credit fee rate will fluctuate between 1.375% and 2.00% per annum, in each case, based upon the Company’s Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio.

Under the Credit Facility, the lenders have a security interest in substantially all of the existing and after acquired assets of FTI Consulting, Inc. and substantially all of our domestic subsidiaries. Subject to certain conditions, at any time prior to maturity, we will be able to invite existing and new lenders to increase the size of the Credit Facility under the 2015 Credit Agreement or provide new term loans under the 2015 Credit Agreement, in each case, up to a maximum of $100.0 million plus unlimited amounts so long as the effect of the new increase does not cause the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio to be greater than 3.50 to 1.00.

The 2015 Credit Agreement governing our Credit Facility and the indenture governing our 2022 Notes contain covenants which, among other things, limit our ability to incur additional indebtedness, create liens, pay dividends on our capital stock, make distributions or repurchases of our capital stock or make specified other restricted payments, consolidate, merge or sell assets or engage in sale-leasebacks, guarantee obligations of other entities and our foreign subsidiaries, make investments and loans, enter into transactions with affiliates or related persons, repay, redeem or purchase certain indebtedness (or modify the terms thereof), make material changes to accounting and reporting practices and engage in any business other than consulting-related businesses or substantially related, complimentary or incidental businesses. In addition, the 2015 Credit Agreement governing our Credit Facility includes financial covenants that require us not to (i) exceed a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio (the ratio of total funded debt to adjusted EBITDA), and (ii) exceed a maximum consolidated interest coverage ratio (the ratio of adjusted EBITDA minus capital expenditures and cash taxes to cash interest). At September 30, 2015, we were in compliance with all covenants as stipulated in the 2015 Credit Agreement governing our Credit Facility and the indenture governing our 2022 Notes.

There were $220 million in borrowings outstanding under the Company’s Credit Facility as of September 30, 2015. The Company has classified these borrowings as long-term debt in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as the Company has the intent and ability, as supported by availability under the 2015 Credit Agreement, to refinance these borrowings for more than one year from the Balance Sheet date.
