Senior Credit Facilities (Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan A and Term Loan B) Revolving Credit Facility Availability of Funds & Commitment Fee. The Revolving Credit Facility provides for borrowings and letters of credit up to an aggregate of $1.25 billion, and at June 30, 2023 there was $1.25 billion available. However, borrowing levels are subject to certain financial covenants as discussed below. There were no letters of credit outstanding at June 30, 2023. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee on the Revolving Credit Facility of 0.250% to 0.375% per annum, depending on the achievement of certain leverage ratios, as defined in the credit and guarantee agreement dated December 8, 2016, as amended (the "Credit Agreement"), on the total Revolving Credit Facility of $1.25 billion less the amount drawn. Maturity Date: •Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan A: April 6, 2026. The outstanding amounts may become due on December 23, 2024 (i.e., 91 days prior to March 24, 2025) prior to its maturity on April 6, 2026 in the event that the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Term Loan B in excess of $250 million has not been repaid, refinanced or extended to have a maturity date on or after July 6, 2026. The Company expects to refinance and extend the maturity date of the Term Loan B prior to December 23, 2024 such that the maturity of the revolving credit facility and Term Loan A are not accelerated. •Term Loan B: March 24, 2025. Interest: In June 2023, the Company amended its Credit Agreement to replace the benchmark interest rate, U.S. dollar LIBOR, with the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), due to the discontinuance of LIBOR, as further described below. •Revolving Credit Facility & Term Loan A: As amended on June 14, 2023, the Revolving Credit Facility and term loan A facility due April 2026 (the "Term Loan A") bear interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus 0.10% plus 1.75% margin (or an alternative base rate plus 0.75%), with a SOFR floor of zero (prior to the amendment, bore interest at LIBOR plus 1.75% margin, with a LIBOR floor of zero). The margin is subject to potential increases of up to 50 basis points (two (2) increases of 25 basis points each) upon certain increases to net first lien leverage ratios, as defined in the Credit Agreement (effective interest rate of 6.99% as of June 30, 2023, before the impact of interest rate swaps). •Term Loan B: As amended on June 14, 2023, the term loan B facility due March 2025 (the "Term Loan B") bears interest at a rate per annum equal to SOFR plus 0.10% plus 2.25% margin, with a SOFR floor of zero (or an alternative base rate plus 1.25% margin) (prior to the amendment, bore interest at LIBOR plus 2.25% margin with a LIBOR floor of zero) (effective interest rate of 7.49% as of June 30, 2023, before the impact of interest rate swaps). Required Principal Payments: •Term Loan A: Quarterly principal payments, at quarterly rates of 1.25% beginning September 30, 2022, 1.75% beginning September 30, 2023, and 2.50% beginning September 30, 2024 through March 31, 2026, with the balance payable at maturity. •Term Loan B: Quarterly principal payments at a quarterly rate of 0.25%, with the balance payable at maturity. The Term Loan A and Term Loan B also require mandatory prepayments in connection with certain asset sales, subject to certain significant exceptions, and the Term Loan B is subject to additional mandatory repayment from specified percentages of excess cash flow, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Optional Prepayment: •Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan A & Term Loan B: The Company may voluntarily prepay the Revolving Credit Facility, Term Loan A and Term Loan B at any time without premium or penalty Security. The Senior Credit Facilities are guaranteed by the guarantors named in the Credit Agreement and are secured by a security interest in substantially all of the assets of Lionsgate and the Guarantors (as defined in the Credit Agreement), subject to certain exceptions. Covenants. The Senior Credit Facilities contain representations and warranties, events of default and affirmative and negative covenants that are customary for similar financings and which include, among other things and subject to certain significant exceptions, restrictions on the ability to declare or pay dividends, create liens, incur additional indebtedness, make investments, dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with any other person. In addition, a net first lien leverage maintenance covenant and an interest coverage ratio maintenance covenant apply to the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan A and are tested quarterly. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants. Change in Control. The Company may also be subject to an event of default upon a change in control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) which, among other things, includes a person or group acquiring ownership or control in excess of 50% of the Company’s common shares. 5.500% Senior Notes Interest: Bears interest at 5.500% annually (payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, commencing on October 15, 2021). Maturity Date: April 15, 2029. Optional Redemption: (i)Prior to April 15, 2024, the Company may redeem the 5.500% Senior Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the notes to be redeemed plus a "make-whole" premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. The make-whole premium is the greater of (i) 1.0% of the principal amount redeemed and (ii) the excess, if any, of the present value at such redemption date of the redemption price at April 15, 2024 (see redemption prices below) plus interest through April 15, 2024 (discounted to the redemption date at the treasury rate plus 50 basis points) over the principal amount of the notes redeemed on the redemption date. (ii)On or after April 15, 2024, the Company may redeem the 5.500% Senior Notes in whole at any time, or in part from time to time, at certain specified redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Such redemption prices are as follows (as a percentage of the principal amount redeemed): (i) on or after April 15, 2024 - 102.750%; (ii) on or after April 15, 2025 - 101.375%; and (iii) on or after April 15, 2026 - 100%. In addition, the Company may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes at any time and from time to time prior to April 15, 2024 with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at a price of 105.500% of the aggregate principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. Security. The 5.500% Senior Notes are unsubordinated, unsecured obligations of the Company. Covenants. The 5.500% Senior Notes contain certain restrictions and covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, limit the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends or repurchase the Company’s common shares, make certain loans or investments, and sell or otherwise dispose of certain assets subject to certain conditions, among other limitations. As of June 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants. Change in Control. The occurrence of a change of control will be a triggering event requiring the Company to offer to purchase from holders all of the 5.500% Senior Notes, at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. In addition, certain asset dispositions will be triggering events that may require the Company to use the excess proceeds from such dispositions to make an offer to purchase the 5.500% Senior Notes at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase. Capacity to Pay Dividends At June 30, 2023, the capacity to pay dividends under the Senior Credit Facilities and the 5.500% Senior Notes significantly exceeded the amount of the Company's accumulated deficit or net loss, and therefore the Company's net loss of $71.5 million and accumulated deficit of $2,516.3 million were deemed free of restrictions from paying dividends at June 30, 2023. Debt Transactions: Senior Notes Repurchases. In the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company repurchased $85.0 million principal amount of the 5.500% Senior Notes for $61.4 million, together with accrued and unpaid interest.
