First Lien Term Loan
In February 2021, we used all of the net proceeds from issuance of the Senior Notes, along with cash on hand, to prepay $356.4 million aggregate principal amount of our first lien term loans outstanding under the First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Debt Prepayment”). Following the Debt Prepayment, $400.0 million aggregate principal amount of first lien term loans were outstanding under our First Lien Credit Agreement. In February 2021, we entered into an amendment to our First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), pursuant to which the Company completed a repricing of its First Lien Term Loan Facility, which decreased the interest rate from LIBOR plus 3.75% per annum to LIBOR plus 3.00% per annum. The Company recognized $7.7 million in the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 within Loss on debt modification and extinguishment on our Consolidated Statements of Operations, primarily comprised of the write-off of unamortized issuance costs associated with the Debt Prepayment.
In July 2021, we entered into an amendment to our existing First Lien Credit Agreement, that provided for the incurrence of an additional $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of additional term loans under our existing First Lien Credit Agreement.
The first lien term debt has a variable interest rate whereby the Company can elect to use a Base Rate or LIBOR plus an applicable rate. The applicable rate is 2.00% for Base Rate loans or 3.00% for LIBOR Based Loans. The effective interest rate on the first lien debt was 5.83% and 3.41% as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
First Lien Revolving Credit Facility
Pursuant to the Second Amendment to the First Lien Credit Agreement entered into in February 2021, the Company increased the aggregate commitments to $250.0 million under our first lien revolving credit facility. The Second Amendment also provided an extension of the maturity date of our first lien revolving credit facility to November 2025.
The first lien revolving debt has a variable interest rate whereby the Company can elect to use a Base Rate or LIBOR plus an applicable rate. The applicable margin is 1.00% to 1.25% for Base Rate loans or 2.00% to 2.25% for LIBOR Based Loans, depending on the Company’s leverage.
In July 2021, the Company drew down $225.0 million under the revolving credit facility and then paid off the outstanding $225.0 million balance of the revolving credit facility with proceeds from the Credit Agreement Amendment and proceeds from the Senior Notes. The effective interest rate was 4.4% as of the repayment date. Immaterial debt issuance costs were incurred in connection with these entries into the revolving credit facility. These debt issuance costs are amortized into interest expense over the expected life of the arrangement. Unamortized debt issuance costs included in Deferred costs and other assets, net of current portion on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were immaterial as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
First Lien Credit Agreement
The First Lien Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all the productive assets of the Company. The First Lien Credit Agreement contains a number of covenants that restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the Company’s ability to, among other things:
incur additional indebtedness;
create or incur liens;
engage in certain fundamental changes, including mergers or consolidations;
sell or transfer assets;
pay dividends and distributions on our subsidiaries’ capital stock;
make acquisitions, investments, loans or advances;
engage in certain transactions with affiliates; and
enter into negative pledge clauses and clauses restricting subsidiary distributions.
If the Company draws more than $87.5 million of the revolving credit loan, the revolving credit loan is subject to a springing financial covenant pursuant to which the consolidated first lien net leverage ratio must not exceed 5.00 to 1.00. The credit agreements also contain certain customary affirmative covenants and events of default, including a change of control. If an event of default occurs, the lenders under the credit agreements will be entitled to take various actions, including the acceleration of amounts due under the credit agreements and all actions permitted to be taken by a secured creditor.
Senior Notes
In February 2021, ZoomInfo Technologies LLC and ZoomInfo Finance Corp., indirect subsidiaries of ZoomInfo Technologies Inc. (the “Issuers”), issued $350.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 3.875% Senior Notes due February 2029 to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Interest on the Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears beginning on August 1, 2021. The Issuers may redeem all or a part of the Notes at any time prior to February 1, 2024 at a price equal to the present value of the redemption price as of February 1, 2024, defined below, plus unaccrued and unpaid interest to February 1, 2024. In addition, beginning on February 1, 2024, the Issuers may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 101.938% of the principal amount redeemed. The redemption price decreases to 100.969% and 100.000% of the principal amount redeemed on February 1, 2025 and February 1, 2026, respectively. In addition, at any time prior to February 1, 2024, the Issuers may redeem up to 40% of the Notes from the proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 103.875% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest.
In July 2021, ZoomInfo Technologies LLC and ZoomInfo Finance Corp., indirect subsidiaries of ZoomInfo Technologies Inc., issued and sold $300.0 million in aggregate principal amount of additional 3.875% senior notes due in 2029. The notes were issued under the same indenture as the Issuers’ existing $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 3.875% senior notes due 2029 (the “Existing Notes”), which were issued in February 2021, and constitute part of the same series as the Existing Notes.
