2022 Credit Agreement On March 1, 2022, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a second amended and restated senior secured credit agreement (the “2022 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of financial institutions. The 2022 Credit Agreement amended, restated and replaced in its entirety the Company’s previous credit agreement, referred to as the “2019 Credit Agreement”. The 2022 Credit Agreement provides for (a) an $800.0 million secured revolving credit facility, consisting of a $725.0 million multicurrency facility and a $75.0 million U.S. dollar facility, maturing on March 1, 2027, (b) a $1,100 million secured term loan A-1 facility with quarterly principal installments that commenced on July 31, 2022 and continue through January 31, 2027, with any outstanding principal balance of such term loan A-1 facility being due and payable on maturity on March 1, 2027, and (c) a $515.0 million secured term loan A-2 facility with quarterly principal installments that commenced on July 31, 2022 and continue through January 31, 2027, with any outstanding principal balance of such term loan A-2 being due and payable on maturity on March 1, 2027. The term loan A-2 facility reflects the combination of the outstanding balances of the secured term A-2 and A-3 loans under the 2019 Credit Agreement. Interest is based on Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus a credit spread adjustment, Euro Interbank Offer Rate (“EURIBOR”) or a base rate that resets periodically plus, in each case, a calculated margin amount that is based on the Company’s leverage ratio. Subject to the terms of the 2022 Credit Agreement, the Company has an option to borrow additional funds under the 2022 Credit Agreement with the agreement of the lenders. As of January 31, 2023, $1,906.4 million was outstanding under the 2022 Credit Agreement. The current portion was $80.8 million, and the long-term portion was $1,825.6 million. The weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the 2022 Credit Agreement was 5.08% for the three months ended January 31, 2023. The actual interest rate for borrowings under the 2022 Credit Agreement was 5.58% as of January 31, 2023. The deferred financing costs associated with the term loan portion of the 2022 Credit Agreement totaled $7.7 million as of January 31, 2023 and are recorded as a reduction of long-term debt on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. The deferred financing costs associated with the revolving portion of the 2022 Credit Agreement totaled $4.3 million as of January 31, 2023 and are recorded within other long-term assets on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets. United States Trade Accounts Receivable Credit Facility On May 17, 2022, Greif Receivables Funding LLC (“Greif Funding”), Greif Packaging LLC (“Greif Packaging”), and certain other U.S. subsidiaries of the Company, amended and restated its U.S. receivables financing facility (the “U.S. Receivables Facility”). The amended and restated U.S. Receivables Facility has a maturity date of May 17, 2023 and provides an accounts receivable financing facility of $300.0 million. As of January 31, 2023, there was $247.1 million outstanding under the U.S. Receivables Facility that is reported as long-term debt on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets because the Company intends to refinance these obligations on a long-term basis and has the intent and ability to consummate a long-term refinancing. Greif Funding is a direct subsidiary of Greif Packaging and is included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. However, because Greif Funding is a separate and distinct legal entity from the Company, the assets of Greif Funding are not available to satisfy the liabilities and obligations of the Company, Greif Packaging or other subsidiaries of the Company, and the liabilities of Greif Funding are not the liabilities or obligations of the Company or its other subsidiaries. International Trade Accounts Receivable Credit Facility On April 20, 2022, Cooperage Receivables Finance B.V. and Greif Services Belgium BV, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Greif, Inc., amended and restated the Nieuw Amsterdam Receivables Financing Agreement (the “European RFA”) with affiliates of a major international bank. The amended and restated European RFA matures April 24, 2023. The European RFA provides an accounts receivable financing facility of up to €100.0 million ($108.7 million as of January 31, 2023) secured by certain European accounts receivable. The $78.7 million outstanding on the European RFA as of January 31, 2023 is reported as long-term debt on the interim condensed consolidated balance sheets because the Company intends to refinance these obligations on a long-term basis and has the intent and ability to consummate a long-term refinancing.
