Senior Secured Credit Facilities

As of September 30, 2017, the facilities under the Company’s credit agreement with Capital One, National Association (as administrative agent) and the lenders named therein (the “Former Credit Agreement”) consisted of $160.0 million in senior secured term loans, of which $141.0 million was outstanding at such date, and a $50.0 million revolving credit facility, with outstanding borrowings of $27.0 million at such date. The facilities were scheduled to mature on July 31, 2020. Borrowings under the Former Credit Agreement bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either (1) the highest of the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, the Eurodollar rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, or the administrative agent’s prime rate as announced from time to time, or (2) the Eurodollar rate for the applicable interest period, plus in each case, an applicable margin based on the Company’s leverage ratio. For the nine months ended September 30, 2017, the weighted-average effective interest rate on the Company’s outstanding borrowings under the Former Credit Agreement was approximately 3.5%.

On October 20, 2017, subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into credit agreements with respect to a $900.0 million senior secured first lien credit facility (consisting of $800.0 million in term loans and a $100.0 million revolving credit facility) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (as administrative agent and collateral agent), the lenders party thereto and the other entities party thereto (the “First Lien Facility”), and a $200.0 million senior secured second lien term loan facility with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (as administrative agent and collateral agent), the lenders party thereto and the other entities party thereto (the “Second Lien Facility” and, together with the First Lien Facility, the “Credit Facilities”). The term loans under both Credit Facilities were fully drawn at closing; the revolving credit facility under the First Lien Facility was undrawn at closing. Proceeds from the term loan borrowings under the Credit Facilities at the closing were primarily used to fund the cash purchase price in the American Acquisition (a portion of which was used to repay American’s outstanding senior secured indebtedness), to refinance the Company’s outstanding senior secured indebtedness under the Former Credit Agreement, and to pay certain transaction fees and expenses.

Borrowings under each of the Credit Facilities bear interest, at the Company’s option, at either (1) a base rate equal to the greatest of the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, the applicable administrative agent’s prime rate as announced from time to time, or the LIBOR rate for a one-month interest period plus 1.00%, subject to a floor of 1.75% (with respect to the term loans) or 1.00% (with respect to borrowings under the revolving credit facility) or (2) the LIBOR rate for the applicable interest period, subject to a floor of 0.75% (with respect to the term loans only), plus in each case, an applicable margin. The applicable margin for the term loans under the First Lien Facility is 2.00% for base rate loans and 3.00% for LIBOR rate loans. The applicable margin for borrowings under the revolving credit facility ranges from 1.50% to 2.00% for base rate loans and 2.50% to 3.00% for LIBOR rate loans, based on the Company’s net leverage ratio. The applicable margin for the term loans under the Second Lien Facility is 6.00% for base rate loans and 7.00% for LIBOR rate loans. The commitment fee for the revolving credit facility is payable quarterly at a rate of between 0.375% and 0.50%, depending on the Company’s net leverage ratio, and is accrued based on the average daily unused amount of the available revolving commitment.

The revolving credit facility under the First Lien Facility matures on October 20, 2022, and the term loans under the First Lien Facility mature on October 20, 2024. The term loans under the First Lien Facility must be repaid in 27 quarterly installments of $2.0 million each, which commence in March 2018, followed by a final installment of $746.0 million at maturity. The term loans under the Second Lien Facility must be repaid in full at maturity on October 20, 2025.

Borrowings under each of the Credit Facilities are guaranteed by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly owned domestic subsidiaries (other than certain insignificant or unrestricted subsidiaries), and are secured by substantially all of the present and future assets of the Company and the guarantors (subject to certain exceptions). Under the Credit Facilities, the Company and its restricted subsidiaries are subject to certain limitations, including limitations on their ability to: incur additional debt, grant liens, sell assets, make certain investments, pay dividends and make certain other restricted payments. In addition, the Company will be required to pay down the term loans under the Credit Facilities under certain circumstances if the Company or its restricted subsidiaries issue debt, sell assets, receive certain extraordinary receipts or generate excess cash flow (subject to exceptions). The revolving credit facility under the First Lien Facility contains a financial covenant regarding a maximum net leverage ratio that applies when borrowings under the revolving credit facility exceed 30% of the total revolving commitment. The Credit Facilities also prohibit the occurrence of a change of control, which includes the acquisition of beneficial ownership of 50% or more of the Company’s capital stock (other than by certain permitted holders, which include, among others, Blake L. Sartini, Lyle A. Berman, Neil I. Sell and certain affiliated entities). If the Company defaults under the Credit Facilities due to a covenant breach or otherwise, the lenders may be entitled to, among other things, require the immediate repayment of all outstanding amounts and sell the Company’s assets to satisfy the obligations thereunder.
