Refinancing Transactions

On January 27, 2023 (the “Settlement Date”), the Company, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc. (the “Issuer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and certain other of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries completed certain refinancing transactions (the “Refinancing Transactions”) consisting of: (i) the exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) of $357,446 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s then existing 5.625% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Senior Notes”) (representing 89.36% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding of the 2026 Senior Notes) for $357,446 aggregate principal amount of the Issuer’s newly issued 5.625% Cash Pay / 10.625% PIK Toggle Senior Secured Third Lien Notes due 2027 (the “Third Lien Notes”), (ii) the issuance by the Issuer (the “Concurrent Notes Offering”) of $580,000 aggregate principal amount of 13.50% Cash Pay / PIK Toggle Senior Secured First Lien Notes due 2027 (the “First Lien Notes” and, together with the Third Lien Notes, the “New Notes”) to holders of 2026 Senior Notes or their designees who participated in the Exchange Offer, including to certain backstop commitment parties who committed to purchase the First Lien Notes not otherwise subscribed for, (iii) the related consent solicitation (the “Consent Solicitation”) to remove substantially all of the covenants, certain events of default and certain other provisions contained in the 2026 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2026 Senior Notes and to release and discharge the guarantee of the 2026 Senior Notes by the Company, (iv) the effectiveness of the Third Amendment (as defined below) to the senior asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Facility”) and (v) the use of proceeds from the Concurrent Notes Offering, together with cash on hand, to prepay all amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility at par, plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, to redeem the Issuer’s existing 2024 Senior Secured Notes (as defined below), including the prepayment premium and any accrued and unpaid interest thereon, and to pay fees and expenses related to the Refinancing Transactions. As a result of the Refinancing Transactions, the Issuer extended the maturities of its indebtedness and reduced the amount of cash interest it is required to pay on such indebtedness for the next two years. The Company recognized a loss on the refinancing and extinguishment of debt of $81,885 during the six months ended June 30, 2023. Additionally, the Company incurred total fees of $91,800 associated with the Refinancing Transactions, of which $86,841 were

paid during the six months ended June 30, 2023, $4,237 were paid during 2022 and $722 are recorded in accounts payable in the condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2023 and will be paid in future periods. The fees paid during the six months ended June 30, 2023 are reflected as a financing outflow in the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows. Of the fees paid during the six months ended June 30, 2023, $73,376 was included in the loss on the refinancing and extinguishment of debt referenced above, $12,465 is presented as a direct deduction from the principal balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet, and $1,000 related to amending the ABL Facility is recorded in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

New Notes

On the Settlement Date, the Issuer issued $580,000 aggregate principal amount of First Lien Notes pursuant to an indenture, dated as of the Settlement Date (the “First Lien Notes Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “First Lien Collateral Agent”).

The First Lien Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuer and are guaranteed by CS Intermediate Holdco 1 LLC (“Holdings”), each of the Issuer’s wholly owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee certain other indebtedness, subject to certain exceptions (the “Domestic Guarantors”), and certain of the Issuer’s wholly owned subsidiaries organized in Costa Rica, France, Mexico, the Netherlands and Romania (the “Foreign Guarantors”). The First Lien Notes are guaranteed by Holdings and the Domestic Guarantors on a senior secured basis and by the Foreign Guarantors on a senior unsecured basis. The guarantees of the subsidiaries organized in France are limited guarantees.

The First Lien Notes will mature on March 31, 2027. The First Lien Notes bear interest at the rate of 13.50% per annum, payable in cash; provided, however, that for the first four interest periods after the Settlement Date, the Issuer has the option, in its sole discretion, to pay up to 4.50% of such interest on the First Lien Notes, in such amount as specified by the Issuer, by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding First Lien Notes or, in limited circumstances as described in the First Lien Notes Indenture, by issuing additional First Lien Notes. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate principal amount of the First Lien Notes of $581,353 recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the election that was made by the Company to pay 4.50% of the first interest payment as payment-in-kind. The Company has also elected to pay 4.50% of the second interest payment as payment-in-kind. Interest on the First Lien Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, and commenced on June 15, 2023.

The Issuer may, at its option, redeem all or part of the First Lien Notes prior to maturity at the prices set forth in the First Lien Notes Indenture. Upon the occurrence of certain events constituting a Change of Control (as defined in the First Lien Notes Indenture), the Issuer will be required to make an offer to repurchase all of the First Lien Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $9,443 of unamortized debt issuance costs and $388 of unamortized original issue discount related to the First Lien Notes, which are presented as direct deductions from the principal balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Both the debt issuance costs and the original issue discount are amortized into interest expense over the term of the First Lien Notes.

The First Lien Notes Indenture contains certain customary covenants that limit the Issuer’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock; incur liens on assets; pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem, its capital stock or make other restricted payments; prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt; make certain loans and investments; enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; enter into transactions with affiliates; and sell certain assets or merge or consolidate with or into other companies. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. The First Lien Notes Indenture also provides for customary events of default, which, if any occur, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all of the then outstanding First Lien Notes to be due and payable immediately.

On the Settlement Date, the Issuer issued $357,446 aggregate principal amount of Third Lien Notes pursuant to an indenture, dated as of the Settlement Date (the “Third Lien Notes Indenture”), by and among the Issuer, the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent (the “Third Lien Collateral Agent”).

The Third Lien Notes are senior secured obligations of the Issuer and are guaranteed by Holdings, each of the Domestic Guarantors, and each of the Foreign Guarantors. The Third Lien Notes are guaranteed by Holdings and the Domestic Guarantors on a senior secured basis and by the Foreign Guarantors on a senior unsecured basis. The guarantees of the subsidiaries organized in France are limited guarantees.

The Third Lien Notes will mature on May 15, 2027. The Third Lien Notes bear interest at the rate of 5.625% per annum, payable in cash; provided, however, that for the first four interest periods after the Settlement Date, the Issuer has the option, in

its sole discretion, to instead pay such interest at 10.625% per annum either by increasing the principal amount of the outstanding Third Lien Notes or, in limited circumstances as described the Third Lien Notes Indenture, by issuing additional Third Lien Notes. As of June 30, 2023, the aggregate principal amount of the Third Lien Notes of $367,930 recognized in the condensed consolidated balance sheet reflects the election that was made by the Company to fully pay the first interest payment on the Third Lien Notes as payment-in-kind. The Company has also elected to pay the second interest payment as payment-in-kind. Interest on the Third Lien Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, and commenced on June 15, 2023.

The Issuer may, at its option, redeem all or part of the Third Lien Notes prior to maturity at the prices set forth in the Third Lien Notes Indenture. Upon the occurrence of certain events constituting a Change of Control (as defined in the Third Lien Notes Indenture), the Issuer will be required to make an offer to repurchase all of the Third Lien Notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the repurchase date.

Debt issuance costs related to the Third Lien Notes are amortized into interest expense over the term of the Third Lien Notes. As of June 30, 2023, the Company had $5,831 of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the Third Lien Notes, which are presented as a direct deduction from the principal balance in the condensed consolidated balance sheet.

The Third Lien Notes Indenture contains certain customary covenants that limit the Issuer’s and its restricted subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred stock; incur liens on assets; pay dividends or make other distributions in respect of, or repurchase or redeem, its capital stock or make other restricted payments; prepay, redeem or repurchase certain debt; make certain loans and investments; enter into agreements restricting certain subsidiaries’ ability to pay dividends; enter into transactions with affiliates; and sell certain assets or merge or consolidate with or into other companies. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. The Third Lien Notes Indenture also provides for customary events of default, which, if any occur, would permit or require the principal, premium, if any, interest and any other monetary obligations on all of the then outstanding Third Lien Notes to be due and payable immediately.

In connection with the issuance of the New Notes, the First Lien Collateral Agent, the Third Lien Collateral Agent, the collateral agent under the ABL Facility, the Issuer, Holdings and the several other parties named therein entered into the First Lien and Third Lien Intercreditor Agreement, providing for the relative priorities of their respective security interests in the assets securing the First Lien Notes, the Third Lien Notes and the ABL Facility, and certain other matters relating to the administration of security interests.

2026 Senior Notes

On November 2, 2016, the Issuer issued $400,000 aggregate principal amount of 2026 Senior Notes. On the Settlement Date, in connection with the Refinancing Transactions, the Issuer completed the Exchange Offer and delivered $357,446 aggregate principal amount of the exchanged 2026 Senior Notes to the trustee for cancellation. Following the completion of the Exchange Offer, $42,554 aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Senior Notes remain outstanding.

Following receipt of the requisite consents in the Consent Solicitation, on January 20, 2023, the Issuer, the guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association (successor in interest to U.S. Bank National Association), as trustee, entered into a supplemental indenture to the indenture governing the 2026 Senior Notes, which became effective on the Settlement Date. The supplemental indenture provides for the elimination of substantially all of the covenants, certain events of default and certain other provisions contained in the 2026 Senior Notes and the indenture governing the 2026 Senior Notes and released and discharged the guarantee of the 2026 Senior Notes by the Company.

The 2026 Senior Notes are guaranteed by each of the Issuer’s wholly-owned existing or subsequently organized U.S. subsidiaries, subject to certain exceptions, to the extent such subsidiary guarantees the ABL Facility. The Issuer may, at its option, redeem all or part of the 2026 Senior Notes at various points in time prior to maturity, as described in the indenture governing the 2026 Senior Notes. The 2026 Senior Notes will mature on November 15, 2026. Interest on the 2026 Senior Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears in cash on May 15 and November 15 of each year.

ABL Facility

On November 2, 2016, Holdings, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc. (the “U.S. Borrower”), Cooper-Standard Automotive Canada Limited (the “Canadian Borrower”), Cooper-Standard Automotive International Holdings B.V. (the “Dutch Borrower”, and, together with the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower, the “Borrowers”) and certain subsidiaries of the U.S. Borrower, entered into a third amendment and restatement of the ABL Facility. In March 2020, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 1 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (“the First Amendment”). As a result of the First Amendment, the ABL Facility maturity was extended to March 2025 and the aggregate revolving loan commitment was reduced to $180.0 million. In May 2020, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), which Second Amendment modified certain covenants under the ABL Facility. In December 2022, the Borrowers entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Third Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), which became effective on the Settlement Date. The Third Amendment provides for the ABL Facility to be amended to:

•permit the U.S. Borrower to issue the New Notes in the Concurrent Notes Offering and Exchange Offer, including the granting of liens, subject to the restrictions set forth in the ABL Facility;

•provide for certain of the U.S. Borrower’s wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in Costa Rica, France, Mexico, the Netherlands, Romania and certain other jurisdictions specified from time to time to become guarantors under the ABL Facility;

•authorize the collateral agent under the ABL Facility to enter into an intercreditor agreement with the collateral trustees for the New Notes; and

•remove the Dutch Borrower as a borrower under the ABL Facility.

The aggregate revolving loan availability includes a $100,000 letter of credit sub-facility and a $25,000 swing line sub-facility. The ABL Facility also provides for an uncommitted $100,000 incremental loan facility, for a potential total ABL Facility of $280,000 (if requested by the Borrowers and the lenders agree to fund such increase). No consent of any lender (other than those participating in the increase) is required to effect any such increase. The Company’s borrowing base as of June 30, 2023 was $180,000. Net the greater of 10% of the borrowing base or $15,000 that cannot be borrowed without triggering the fixed charge coverage ratio maintenance covenant and $5,475 of outstanding letters of credit, the Company effectively had $156,525 available for borrowing under its ABL Facility.

As of June 30, 2023, there were no borrowings under the ABL Facility.

Maturity. Any borrowings under our ABL Facility will mature, and the commitments of the lenders under our ABL Facility will terminate, on March 24, 2025.

Borrowing Base. As of the Settlement Date, the loan and letter of credit availability under the ABL Facility is subject to a borrowing base, which at any time is limited to the lesser of: (A) the maximum facility amount (subject to certain adjustments) and (B) (i) up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable; plus (ii) the lesser of 70% of eligible inventory or 85% of the appraised net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory; plus (iii) up to the lesser of $30,000 and 85% of eligible tooling accounts receivable; minus reserves established by the Agent. The accounts receivable portion of the borrowing base is subject to certain formulaic limitations (including concentration limits). The inventory portion of the borrowing base is limited to eligible inventory, as determined by the Agent. The borrowing base is also subject to certain reserves, which are established by the Agent (which may include changes to the advance rates indicated above). Loan availability under the ABL Facility is apportioned as follows: $160,000 to the U.S. Borrower and $20,000 to the Canadian Borrower.

Guarantees; Security. The obligations of the U.S. Borrower and the Canadian Borrower under the ABL Facility, as well as certain cash management arrangements and interest rate, foreign currency or commodity swaps entered into by the such Borrowers and their subsidiaries, and certain credit lines entered into by non-U.S. subsidiaries, in each case with the lenders and their affiliates (collectively, “Additional ABL Secured Obligations”) are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by Holdings and

its U.S. subsidiaries (with certain exceptions) and certain wholly-owned subsidiaries organized in Costa Rica, France, Mexico, the Netherlands, Romania and certain other jurisdictions specified from time to time, and the obligations of the Canadian Borrower under the ABL Facility and Additional ABL Secured Obligations of the Canadian Borrower and its Canadian subsidiaries are, in addition, guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the Canadian subsidiaries of the Canadian Borrower. The obligations under the ABL Facility and related guarantees are secured by (1) a first priority lien on all of each Borrower’s and each U.S. and Canadian guarantor’s existing and future personal property consisting of certain accounts receivable, inventory, documents, instruments, chattel paper, deposit accounts and securities accounts and certain related assets and proceeds of the foregoing, with various enumerated exceptions, including that: (i) the collateral owned by Canadian Borrower or any of its Canadian subsidiaries that are Guarantors only secure the obligations of Canadian Borrower and such subsidiaries arising under the ABL Facility and Additional ABL Secured Obligations (ii) no liens have been granted on any assets or properties of any non-U.S. subsidiaries of the Company (other than the Canadian Borrower and Canadian Guarantors, as otherwise specified above) in connection with the ABL Facility, (2) a second priority lien on all the capital stock in restricted subsidiaries directly held by the U.S. Borrower and each of the U.S. guarantors, and equipment of the U.S. Borrower and the U.S.-domiciled guarantors and all other material personal property of the U.S. Borrower and the U.S.-domiciled guarantors and (3) a 65% pledge of the equity interest in the first-tier foreign subsidiaries of the U.S. Guarantors.

Interest. Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest at a rate equal to, at the Borrowers’ option:

•in the case of borrowings by the U.S. Borrower, the forward-looking secured overnight funding rate for the applicable interest period (“Term SOFR”) (including a credit spread adjustment of 0.11448% or 0.26161%, depending on the applicable interest period) or the base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin; or

•in the case of borrowings by the Canadian Borrower, bankers’ acceptance (“BA”) rate, Canadian prime rate or Canadian base rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin.

The applicable margin may vary between 2.00% and 2.50% with respect to the Term SOFR or Canadian BA rate-based borrowings and between 1.00% and 1.50% with respect to U.S. base rate, Canadian prime rate and Canadian base rate borrowings. The applicable margin is subject, in each case, to quarterly pricing adjustments (based on average facility availability).

Fees. The Borrowers are required to pay a fee in respect of committed but unutilized commitments. The ABL Facility also requires the payment of customary agency and administrative fees.

Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrowers are able to voluntarily reduce the unutilized portion of the commitment amount and repay outstanding loans, in each case, in whole or in part, at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage and related reemployment costs with respect to repayments of SOFR-based borrowings).

Covenants; Events of Default. The ABL Facility includes affirmative and negative covenants that will impose substantial restrictions on the Company’s financial and business operations, including its ability to incur and secure debt, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends or make acquisitions. The ABL Facility also includes a requirement to maintain a monthly fixed charge coverage ratio of no less than 1.0 to 1.0 when availability under the ABL Facility is less than specified levels. The ABL Facility also contains various events of default that are customary for comparable facilities.

Debt Issuance Costs. As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, the Company had $1,232 and $535, respectively, of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the ABL Facility recorded in other long-term assets in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Term Loan Facility

On November 2, 2016, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc., as borrower, entered into Amendment No. 1 to its senior term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”), which provided for loans in an aggregate principal amount of $340,000. Subject to certain conditions, the Term Loan Facility, without the consent of the then-existing lenders (but subject to the receipt of commitments), could have been expanded (or a new term loan or revolving facility added) by an amount that would not cause the consolidated secured net debt ratio to exceed 2.25 to 1.00 plus $400,000 plus any voluntary prepayments (including revolving facility and ABL Facility to the extent commitments are reduced) not funded from proceeds of long-term indebtedness.

On May 2, 2017, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Term Loan Facility to modify the interest rate. Subsequently, on March 6, 2018, the Company entered into Amendment No. 3 to the Term Loan Facility to further modify the interest rate. In accordance with this amendment, borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bore interest, at the Company’s option, at either (1) with respect to Eurodollar rate loans, the greater of the applicable Eurodollar rate and 0.75% plus 2.00% per annum, or (2) with respect to base rate loans, the base rate, (which is the highest of the then current federal funds rate plus

0.50%, the prime rate most recently announced by the administrative agent under the term loan, and the one-month Eurodollar rate plus 1.0%) plus 1.0% per annum.

Maturity. The Term Loan Facility would have matured on November 2, 2023.

Voluntary Prepayments. In connection with the Refinancing Transactions, Cooper-Standard Automotive Inc. repaid the Term Loan Facility in full on the Settlement Date and the Term Loan Facility was terminated.

Debt Issuance Costs. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had $494 of unamortized debt issuance costs and $319 of unamortized original issue discount related to the Term Loan Facility. Both the debt issuance costs and the original issue discount were amortized into interest expense over the term of the Term Loan Facility.

Debt Covenants

The Company was in compliance with all applicable covenants of the New Notes, the 2026 Senior Notes, and ABL Facility as of June 30, 2023.

Other Financing

Finance leases and other. Other borrowings as of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022 reflect finance leases and other borrowings under local bank lines classified in debt payable within one year in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

Receivable factoring. As a part of its working capital management, the Company sells certain receivables through a single third-party financial institution (the “Factor”) in a pan-European program. The amount sold varies each month based on the amount of underlying receivables and cash flow needs of the Company. These are permitted transactions under the Company’s credit agreements governing the ABL Facility and the indentures governing the New Notes and 2026 Secured Notes. The European factoring facility allows the Company to factor up to €60 million of its Euro-denominated accounts receivable, accelerating access to cash and reducing credit risk. The factoring facility expires in December 2023.

Costs incurred on the sale of receivables are recorded in other expense, net in the condensed consolidated statements of operations. The sale of receivables under this contract is considered an off-balance sheet arrangement to the Company and is accounted for as a true sale and is excluded from accounts receivable in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amounts outstanding under receivable transfer agreements entered into by various locations as of the period end were as follows:


	June 30, 2023		December 31, 2022
Off-balance sheet arrangements	$	57,465	$	52,491

Accounts receivable factored and related costs throughout the period were as follows:


	Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Costs	636		114		1,073		239

As of June 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, cash collections on behalf of the Factor that have yet to be remitted were $5,646 and $3,772, respectively, and are reflected in other current assets as restricted cash in the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
