SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | SUBSEQUENT E VENTS A MENDMENT TO C REDIT A GREEMENT On February 1, 2021, we and certain of our subsidiaries entered into a Second Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, or the Second Amendment, with certain lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent under the Credit Agreement. The Second Amendment amends the Credit Agreement to provide us with additional flexibility to issue new senior secured notes with related guarantees from our U.S. subsidiaries, which new senior secured notes and related guarantees may be secured on a pari passu basis with the U.S. Obligations by the U.S. Collateral (each as defined in the Second Amendment). The Second Amendment also makes minor technical changes and allows for certain additional internal corporate reorganizations. S ENIOR S ECURED N OTES O FFERING On February 10, 2021, we issued $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 1.4% Notes at 99.945 percent of their principal amount, in a private placement in reliance on Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 1.4% Notes are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by our U.S. subsidiaries that guarantee the Credit Agreement. The 1.4% Notes are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Credit Agreement, any of our foreign subsidiaries or any of our non-wholly owned subsidiaries. The 1.4% Notes and related guarantees are secured by pledges of equity interests, or the Collateral, that are owned by us and by each subsidiary guarantor, which equity interests are the same equity interests pledged to secure the obligations of U.S. borrowers under the Credit Agreement. The 1.4% Notes will share equally in the Collateral with the Credit Agreement. The guarantee of each such subsidiary guarantor will be released to the extent such subsidiary no longer guarantees the Credit Agreement and in certain other circumstances, and the Collateral pledged by such subsidiary guarantor will also be released upon the release of such subsidiary guarantor’s guarantee. The 1.4% Notes and related guarantees are senior secured obligations of us and the subsidiary guarantors. The 1.4% Notes and related guarantees rank equally in right of payment with all of our and the subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future senior indebtedness, including under the Credit Agreement and the 4¾% Notes, the 3¼% Notes, the 4⅛% Notes and the 2¼% Notes; be senior in right of payment to all of our and the subsidiary guarantors’ future indebtedness that is by its terms expressly subordinated in right of payment to the 1.4% Notes; rank equally in right of payment to all of our and the subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future senior secured indebtedness (including indebtedness under the Credit Agreement) that is secured by the Collateral on a first-priority basis, to the extent of the value of the Collateral; rank effectively senior to all of our and the subsidiary guarantors’ existing and future unsecured indebtedness and indebtedness secured on a junior basis, in each case to the extent of the value of the Collateral; rank effectively junior to all existing and future indebtedness that is secured by liens on assets that do not constitute a part of the Collateral, to the extent of the value of such assets; and be structurally subordinated to all existing and future indebtedness and other liabilities of each of our existing and future subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 1.4% Notes. As a result of the guarantees by the subsidiary guarantors of the 1.4% Notes, such subsidiaries were also required to guarantee, and have now guaranteed, on a senior unsecured basis the 4¾% Notes, the 3¼% Notes, the 4⅛% Notes and the 2¼% Notes pursuant to supplemental indentures to the indenture for the 4¾% Notes and the 3¼% Notes, the indenture for the 4⅛% Notes and the indenture for the 2¼% Notes. The 1.4% Notes are not, and are not required to be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The 1.4% Notes mature on April 1, 2026. Interest on the 1.4% Notes will be payable semi-annually in cash on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on October 1, 2021. The 1.4% Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture by and among Silgan ,certain of our U.S. subsidiaries and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent, which indenture contains covenants that are generally less restrictive than those in the Credit Agreement and substantially similar to the covenants in the indenture for the 4¾% Notes and the 3¼% Notes, the indenture for the 4⅛% Notes and the indenture for the 2¼% Notes. Prior to March 1, 2026 (one month prior to the maturity date of the 1.4% Notes, or the Par Call Date, the 1.4% Notes will be redeemable at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100 percent of the principal amount of the 1.4% Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the principal amount of the 1.4% Notes plus a “make-whole” amount, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. On or after the Par Call Date, the 1.4% Notes will be redeemable at a redemption price equal to 100 percent of the aggregate principal amount of any 1.4% Notes being redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. We will be required to make an offer to repurchase the 1.4% Notes at a repurchase price equal to 101 percent of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase, upon the occurrence of a change of control repurchase event as provided in the indenture for the 1.4% Notes. The gross proceeds from the sale of the 1.4% Notes were $500.0 million. We used the gross proceeds from the sale of the 1.4% Notes to prepay $500.0 million of our outstanding term loans under the Credit Agreement. We paid the initial purchasers' discount and offering expenses related to the sale of the 1.4% Notes with cash on hand. Annual aggregate maturities of the prepaid term loans of $500.0 million were extended to 2026 to match the maturities of the 1.4% Notes because we refinanced these term loans with the gross proceeds from the issuance of the 1.4% Notes. This amount included current maturities of term loans of $90.0 million that are now classified as long-term debt in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2020.
