The 2022 Term Loan Facility was issued with an original issue discount of 2.00%, or $14.0 million. The original issue discount and deferred financing cost associated with the issuance of the borrowings under the 2022 Term Loan Facility are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the 2022 Term Loan Facility, the results of which are not materially different from the effective interest rate basis. 2023 Term Loan Facility In connection with the closing of the Inmarsat Acquisition in May 2023, the Company entered into the $616.7 million 2023 Term Loan Facility, which was fully drawn at closing and matures on May 30, 2030.

Inmarsat Secured Credit Facilities In March 2024, Inmarsat amended its then-existing senior secured credit facilities to (among other matters): (1) establish the $1.3 billion 2024 Inmarsat Term Loan Facility, the proceeds of which, together with cash on hand, were used to repay approximately $1.38 billion of the outstanding borrowings under the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility, resulting in $300.0 million in principal amount of borrowings remaining outstanding under the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility at the closing of the amendment, and (2) replace the prior $700.0 million revolving credit facility with a new $550.0 million revolving line of credit (including up to $100.0 million of letters of credit) (the Inmarsat Revolving Credit Facility and, together with the 2024 Inmarsat Term Loan Facility and the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility, the Inmarsat Secured Credit Facilities). The maturity date for the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility is December 12, 2026, and for the 2024 Inmarsat Term Loan Facility is September 28, 2029. The Inmarsat Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of March 28, 2027 and (if more than $100.0 million of borrowings are outstanding under the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility) the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity of the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility.

Borrowings under the 2024 Inmarsat Term Loan Facility are required to be repaid in quarterly installments of $3.25 million each, which commenced in the quarter ended June 30, 2024, followed by a final installment of $1.23 billion at maturity. As a result of the voluntary prepayments at the closing of the amendment, all quarterly amortization installments with respect to the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility have been reduced to zero, with the only remaining scheduled principal repayment being a final installment of $300.0 million at the maturity date on December 12, 2026.

The applicable margin for the Original Inmarsat Term Loan Facility is 2.50% per annum for base rate loans and 3.50% per annum for SOFR loans. The applicable margin for the 2024 Inmarsat Term Loan Facility is 3.50% per annum for base rate loans and 4.50% per annum for SOFR loans.

The 2027 Notes are effectively senior to all of the Company’s existing and future unsecured debt (including the 2028 Notes and the 2031 Notes) as well as to all of any permitted junior lien debt that may be incurred in the future, in each case to the extent of the value of the assets securing the 2027 Notes.

The Inmarsat 2029 Notes are secured by pari passu first priority liens on the collateral securing the Inmarsat Secured Credit Facilities, and are required to be guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the subsidiaries of Inmarsat Holdings guaranteeing the Inmarsat Secured Credit Facilities.

Senior Notes due 2031 In September 2023, the Company issued $733.4 million in principal amount of 2031 Notes in a private placement to institutional buyers to replace the $733.4 million unsecured bridge loan facility that was entered into in connection with the closing of the Inmarsat Acquisition in May 2023.

The 2031 Notes bear interest at the rate of 7.500% per year, payable semi-annually in cash in arrears, which interest payments commenced in May 2024. Debt issuance costs associated with the issuance of the 2031 Notes are amortized to interest expense on a straight-line basis over the term of the 2031 Notes, the results of which are not materially different from the effective interest rate basis. The 2031 Notes are required to be guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by each of the Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that guarantees the Viasat Revolving Credit Facility.

The 2031 Notes are effectively junior in right of payment to the Company’s existing and future secured debt, including under the Credit Facilities and the 2027 Notes (to the extent of the value of the assets securing such debt), are structurally subordinated to all existing and future liabilities (including trade payables) of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 2031 Notes, and are senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future subordinated indebtedness. The indenture governing the 2031 Notes limits, among other things, the Company’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to: incur, assume or guarantee additional debt; issue redeemable stock and preferred stock; pay dividends, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock; prepay, redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make loans and investments; grant or incur liens; restrict dividends, loans or asset transfers from restricted subsidiaries; sell or otherwise dispose of assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; reduce the Company’s satellite insurance; and consolidate or merge with, or sell substantially all of their assets to, another person. Prior to May 30, 2026, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the 2031 Notes at a redemption price of 107.500% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date, from the net cash proceeds of specified equity offerings. The Company may also redeem the 2031 Notes prior to May 30, 2026, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof plus a “make whole” premium and any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date. The 2031 Notes may be redeemed, in whole or in part, at any time during the 12 months beginning on May 30, 2026 at a redemption price of 103.750%, during the 12 months beginning on May 30, 2027 at a redemption price of 101.875%, and at any time on or after May 30, 2028 at a redemption price of 100%, in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the redemption date. In the event a change of control triggering event occurs (as defined in the indenture governing the 2031 Notes), each holder will have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such holder’s 2031 Notes at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date).
