Beginning on March 12, 2020, NCLC borrowed under both the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Norwegian Epic Credit Agreement the full amount of $1.55 billion.

The proceeds from the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Norwegian Epic Credit Agreement borrowings are currently being held on NCLC’s balance sheet. In accordance with the terms of the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and the Norwegian Epic Credit Agreement, the proceeds from the borrowings may be used for working capital, general corporate or other purposes permitted by the facilities.
