Senior Credit Facilities

The Company is obligated under (i) a senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a senior secured first-lien term loan B in an aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million (the “Term Loan B Facility”) and (iii) a senior secured first-lien delayed draw term loan B in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”) with SunTrust Bank (“SunTrust”), Jefferies Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (collectively, the “Lenders”), originally entered on July 31, 2013 and amended from time to time.

On January 6, 2017, the Company entered into a sixth amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to its Senior Credit Facilities. The Sixth Amendment amended the Senior Credit Facilities to, among other things, (a) permanently reduce the revolving commitments in accordance with a schedule set forth therein and prohibit further revolving borrowings, (b) require the cash collateralization of letters of credit issued thereunder, (c) increase the interest rate for loans outstanding under the Senior Credit Facilities and require a portion of accrued interest at the increased rate to be paid-in-kind, (d) permit the Company and its subsidiaries to enter into the Priming Credit Agreement (as defined below), which provides the Company with an aggregate borrowing commitment of $25.0 million, to be fully drawn at closing, and permit the Company to incur the obligations thereunder and to subordinate the liens securing the Senior Credit Facilities to the liens securing the obligations under the Priming Credit Agreement, and (e) amend certain covenants, including by (i) increasing the consolidated senior secured net leverage ratio covenant, (ii) adding a minimum EBITDA covenant, to be tested quarterly, and (iii) otherwise restricting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur certain additional indebtedness and make additional significant investments or acquisitions.

On January 6, 2017, the Company entered into a new credit agreement (the “Priming Credit Agreement”) with certain existing lenders under the Senior Credit Facilities and SunTrust, as administrative agent for itself and the lenders. The Priming Credit Agreement provides an aggregate borrowing commitment of $25.0 million, which will be fully drawn at closing. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the borrowing under the Priming Credit Agreement (i) to permanently prepay a portion of the outstanding revolving loan balance under the Senior Credit Facilities, (ii) to cash collateralize letters of credit issued under the Senior Credit Facilities, (iii) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the execution and delivery of the Priming Credit Agreement and the Sixth Amendment, and (iv) for working capital and other general corporate purposes.

The Company will pay interest on the outstanding loans under the Priming Credit Agreement at a rate of 10% per annum, and accrued interest will be payable in cash monthly in arrears on the last day of each fiscal month. The obligations under the Priming Credit Agreement are not subject to scheduled amortization installments, and all outstanding obligations will mature and be due and payable in full in cash on July 31, 2018. The occurrence of certain events of default may increase the applicable rate of interest by 2% and could result in the acceleration of the Company’s obligations under the Priming Credit Agreement prior to stated maturity.

The Priming Credit Agreement contains mandatory prepayments, representations and warranties, affirmative and negative covenants, financial covenants and events of default that are substantially identical to the corresponding provisions of the Senior Credit Facilities. In addition, the obligations under the Priming Credit Agreement are guaranteed by joint and several guarantees from the Company’s subsidiaries and secured by a security interest on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The payment obligations under the Priming Credit Agreement rank pari passu in right of payment with the payment obligations under the Senior Credit Facilities. Upon the occurrence of certain mandatory prepayment events, the Company is required to apply the net proceeds thereof, first, to the permanent prepayment of outstanding revolving loans under the Senior Credit Facilities until paid in full, next, to the permanent prepayment of outstanding term loans under the Senior Credit Facilities until paid in full, and, last, to the permanent prepayment of outstanding loans under the Priming Credit Agreement.

The applicable interest rates for each of the Term Loan Facilities is the Eurodollar rate plus 6.00% or the base rate plus 5.00%, until the occurrence of certain pricing decrease triggering events, as defined in the amended Senior Credit Facilities. Upon the occurrence of a pricing decrease triggering event, the interest rates for the Senior Credit Facilities may revert to the Eurodollar rate plus 5.25% or the base rate plus 4.25%. As of March 31, 2017, the interest rates related to the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan Facilities are approximately 8.25% and 6.50%, respectively.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 31, 2018 at which time all principal amounts outstanding are due and payable. The Term Loan Facilities require quarterly principal repayments of $3.1 million beginning March 31, 2016 until their July 31, 2020 maturity at which time the remaining principal amount of approximately $194.9 million is due and payable.

2021 Notes

On February 11, 2014, the Company issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 2021 Notes. The 2021 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all existing and future subsidiaries of the Company.

Interest on the 2021 Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 8.875% per annum and is payable in cash semi-annually on February 15 and August 15 of each year. The debt discount of $5.0 million at issuance is being amortized as interest expense through maturity which will result in the accretion over time of the outstanding debt balance to the principal amount. The 2021 Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of its existing and future subordinated indebtedness.

The 2021 Notes are guaranteed on a full, joint and several basis by each of the Company’s existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that is a borrower under any of the Company’s credit facilities or that guarantees any of the Company’s debt or that of any of its restricted subsidiaries, in each case incurred under the Company’s credit facilities. As of March 31, 2017, the Company does not have any independent assets or operations, and as a result, its direct and indirect subsidiaries (other than minor subsidiaries), each being 100% owned by the Company, are fully and unconditionally, jointly and severally, providing guarantees on a senior unsecured basis to the 2021 Notes.

Level 2:  Quoted prices, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, which are observable for the assets or liabilities, either directly or indirectly.
Level 3:  Inputs that are unobservable for the assets or liabilities. Financial assets with carrying values approximating fair value include cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable. Financial liabilities with carrying values approximating fair value include accounts payable and capital leases. The carrying value of these financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value due to their short maturities.
