Credit Facility

On September 25, 2018, the Company entered into a $700.0 million credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), which replaced the Company’s previous senior secured credit facilities and provides for a five-year $500.0 million revolving line of credit (the "Revolving Credit Facility") and a seven-year $200.0 million bank term loan facility (the "Term Loan A Facility"). Subject to certain conditions, including the absence of a default or event of default under the Credit Agreement, the Company may request incremental loans to be extended under the Revolving Credit Facility or as additional Term Loan Facilities so long as the Company is in pro forma compliance with the financial covenants set forth in the Credit Agreement and the aggregate of such increases does not exceed $400.0 million.

On February 10, 2021, the Company amended its Credit Agreement to, among other things, add a new seven-year $350.0 million Term Loan B Facility (the "Term Loan B Facility") and to decrease the incremental loans that may be extended at the Company’s request to $250.0 million. The amended Credit Agreement was further amended effective February 22, 2022 to adjust the step-down schedule for the maximum net debt to EBITDA ratio.

On May 6, 2022, the Company further amended its Credit Agreement in order to extend the maturity of the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A Facility to May 6, 2027, and to increase the availability under the Revolving Credit Facility, to $600.0 million. Additionally, the Company added a $650.0 million delayed draw term loan facility (the "Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility"), which the Company borrowed on July 5, 2022, in connection with the Neenah merger. The Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility matures on May 6, 2027.

Borrowings under the amended Term Loan A Facility ("Term Loan A Credit Facility") will bear interest, at a rate equal to either (1) a forward-looking term rate based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("Term SOFR"), plus the applicable margin or (2) the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest as
published by the Wall Street Journal as the "bank prime loan" rate, and (c) Term SOFR plus 1.0%, in each case plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Term Loan A Credit Facility is expected to range from 1.25% to 3.00% for SOFR loans and from 0.25% to 2.00% for base rate loans, in each case depending on the Company’s then current net debt to EBITDA ratio.

Borrowings under the amended Revolving Facility or the Delayed Draw Term Loan facility in U.S. dollars will bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (1) a forward-looking term rate based on Term SOFR, plus the applicable margin or (2) the highest of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.5%, (b) the rate of interest as published by the Wall Street Journal as the "bank prime loan" rate, and (c) one-month Term SOFR plus 1.0%, in each case plus the applicable margin. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility in Euros will bear interest at a rate equal to the reserve-adjusted Euro interbank offered rate, or EURIBOR, plus the applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the revolving credit agreement is expected to range from 1.00% to 2.75% for SOFR loans and EURIBOR loans, and from 0.00% to 1.75% for base rate loans, in each case, depending on the Company’s then current net debt to EBITDA ratio.

Borrowings under the Term Loan B Facility will bear interest, equal to a forward-looking term rate based on Term SOFR (subject to a minimum floor of 0.75%) plus 2.75%. Borrowings under the Term Loan B Facility in Euros will bear interest equal to EURIBOR (subject to a minimum floor of 0% ) plus 3.75%.

Under the terms of the amended Credit Agreement, the Company is required to maintain certain financial ratios and comply with certain financial covenants, including maintaining a net debt to EBITDA ratio, as defined in the amended Credit Agreement, calculated on a trailing four fiscal quarter basis, not greater than 5.50x and an interest coverage ratio, also as defined in the amended Credit Agreement, of not less than 2.50x. In addition, borrowings and loans made under the amended Credit Agreement are secured by substantially all of the Company’s and the guarantors’ personal property, excluding certain customary items of collateral, and will be guaranteed by the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned direct material domestic subsidiaries and by Mativ Luxembourg (formerly known as SWM Luxembourg).

The Company was in compliance with all of its covenants under the amended Credit Agreement at March 31, 2025.
Indenture for 8.000% Senior Unsecured Notes Due 2029

On October 7, 2024, the Company closed a private offering of $400.0 million of 8.000% senior unsecured notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”). The 2029 Notes were sold in a private placement in reliance on Rule 144A and Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, pursuant to a purchase agreement between the Company, certain subsidiaries of the Company and a third-party financial institution, as representative of the initial purchasers. The 2029 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned subsidiaries that is a borrower under or that guarantees obligations under the Company’s senior secured credit facilities or that guarantees certain other indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions.

The 2029 Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of October 7, 2024, among the Company, the guarantors listed therein and a third-party financial institution, as trustee. The Indenture provides that interest on the 2029 Notes will accrue from October 7, 2024 and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year, beginning on April 1, 2025, and the 2029 Notes mature on October 1, 2029, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption.

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2029 Notes at any time on or after October 1, 2026, at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture, together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company sells certain assets or consummates certain change of control transactions, the Company will be required to make an offer to repurchase the 2029 Notes, subject to certain conditions.

The Indenture contains certain covenants that, among other things, limit the Company’s ability and the ability of its restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, make certain dividends, repurchase Company stock or make other distributions, make certain investments, create liens, transfer or sell assets, merge or consolidate and enter into
transactions with the Company’s affiliates. Such covenants are subject to a number of exceptions and qualifications set forth in the Indenture. The Indenture also contains certain customary events of default, including failure to make payments in respect of the principal amount of the 2029 Notes, failure to make payments of interest on the 2029 Notes when due and payable, failure to comply with certain covenants and agreements and certain events of bankruptcy or insolvency. The Company was in compliance with all of its covenants under the Indenture at March 31, 2025.
As of March 31, 2025, the average interest rate was 7.00% on outstanding Revolving Facility borrowings, 7.17% on outstanding Term Loan A Credit Facility borrowings, 8.19% on outstanding Term Loan B Facility borrowings, and 6.92% on outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility borrowings. The effective rate on the Notes was 8.000%. The weighted average effective interest rate on the Company's debt facilities, including the impact of interest rate hedges, was approximately 7.44% and 5.94% for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.
