The fair value of our 1.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes (Convertible Notes) is based on an income approach, which incorporates certain inputs and assumptions, including scheduled coupon and principal payments, the conversion feature inherent in the Convertible Notes, the put feature inherent in the Convertible Notes, and share price volatility assumptions based on historic volatility of the Company’s ordinary shares and other factors. These fair value measurements are based on significant inputs not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

The fair values of the various term loan facilities and senior notes were based on market quotes and transactions proximate to the valuation date. Based on this valuation methodology, we determined these debt instruments represent Level 2 measurements within the fair value hierarchy.

Credit Facility

Upon closing of the Paladin acquisition on February 28, 2014, the Company entered into a credit facility with Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch and Royal Bank of Canada and certain other lenders, which replaced Endo’s prior credit facility. The prior credit facility was terminated and canceled, with the outstanding indebtedness of $1.4 billion repaid and all liens terminated and released. The initial borrowings under the credit facility consisted of a five-year senior secured Term Loan A facility of $1.1 billion, a seven-year senior secured Term Loan B facility of $425.0 million, and a five-year revolving credit facility with an initial borrowing capacity of up to $750.0 million, substantially all of which is available. The credit facility contains an uncommitted expansion provision which permits up to $1.0 billion (or an unlimited amount if the secured leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility, is less than or equal to 2.75x) of additional revolving or term loan commitments from one or more of the lenders under the credit facility or other lenders.

Under the credit facility, $50.0 million is available for letters of credit and up to $50.0 million is available for swing line loans on same-day notice, both of which may be increased to up to $75.0 million, subject to consents as described in the credit facility. The borrowers’ obligations under the credit facility are guaranteed by all of Endo’s direct and indirect wholly-owned material restricted subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of the borrowers’ assets and those of the guarantors.

The credit facility contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company believes to be usual and customary for a senior secured credit agreement. The negative covenants include, among other things, limitations on capital expenditures, asset sales, mergers and acquisitions, indebtedness, liens, dividends, investments and transactions with the Company’s affiliates. As of September 30, 2014, we are in compliance with all covenants in our credit facility.

As set forth in the new credit agreement, borrowings incur interest at an amount equal to a rate calculated based on the type of borrowing and the Company’s leverage ratio, as defined in the new credit agreement. For the Term Loan A facility and revolving credit facility, the Company could elect to pay interest based on an adjusted London Inter-Bank Offer Rate (LIBOR) plus between 1.50% and 2.25% or an Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the new credit agreement) plus between 0.50% and 1.25%. For the Term Loan B Facility, the Company could elect to pay interest based on an adjusted LIBOR (with a floor of 0.75%) plus 2.50% or an Alternate Base Rate plus 1.50%. The Company will pay a commitment fee of between 30 to 50 basis points, payable quarterly, on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility.

In connection with our entering into the credit agreement, we incurred new debt issuance costs of approximately $27.7 million, $26.7 million of which was deferred and is being amortized over the term of the credit facility. The remaining debt issuance costs of $1.0 million and previously deferred debt issuance costs of $8.6 million associated with the prior credit facility were charged to expense. These expenses were included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a Loss on extinguishment of debt.

In addition, in connection with the Paladin transaction, the Company assumed approximately $23.8 million of previously existing debt entered into by Paladin's subsidiary, Litha.

On December 2, 2013, following the completion of consent solicitations, Endo, certain guarantors party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee, entered into supplemental indentures to the 2019, 2020 and 2022 Notes Indentures, providing, among other things, that the Paladin transaction will not constitute a change of control under the Indentures.

5.375% Senior Notes Due 2023

On June 30, 2014, we issued, through a private placement, $750.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.375% Senior Notes due 2023 (the 2023 Notes) at an issue price of par. Because the notes were not initially registered, the notes were offered only in transactions that were exempt from registration under the Securities Act or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction. Accordingly, we offered the 2023 Notes in the United States only to "qualified institutional buyers" (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2023 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries. Interest on the 2023 Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2015. The 2023 Notes will mature on January 15, 2023, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture incorporated by reference herein. We received proceeds of $750.0 million from the issuance. Costs associated with this offering, including costs related to investment bankers, of $12.6 million were deferred and are included in Other assets on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Endo issued the 2023 Notes for general corporate purposes, which included acquisitions, including the acquisition of DAVA.

1.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes Due 2015

At September 30, 2014, our indebtedness included 1.75% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes due April 15, 2015 (the Convertible Notes). In May 2014, we repurchased approximately $240.7 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes for approximately $548.2 million, including accrued interest. In addition, in July 2014 we repurchased approximately $40.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Convertible Notes for approximately $95.2 million, which included the issuance of 798,367 ordinary shares valued at approximately $55.2 million. The combined repurchases during 2014 reduced the outstanding principal amount of the Convertible Notes to approximately $98.8 million. In connection with the May 2014 and July 2014 repurchases, we charged $14.8 million and $2.0 million, respectively, to expense, representing the differences between the fair value of the repurchased debt components and their carrying amount, as well as third-party costs related to the transactions. The expenses were included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a Loss on extinguishment of debt. Additionally, we recorded a combined decrease to Additional paid-in capital in the amount of $365.0 million, representing the fair value of the equity component of the repurchased Convertible Notes.

The Convertible Notes became convertible at the option of holders beginning October 1, 2013. The conversion right was triggered on September 17, 2013, when the closing sale price of the Company's stock on the NASDAQ Stock Exchange exceeded $37.96 (130% of the conversion price of $29.20) for the 20th trading day in the 30 consecutive trading days ending on September 30, 2013 and the remaining balance of the Convertible Notes remains convertible at September 30, 2014. We are permitted to deliver cash, ordinary shares or a combination of cash and shares, at our election, to satisfy any future conversions of the Convertible Notes. It is our current intention to settle the remaining principal amount of any conversion consideration in cash. Holders of the remaining Convertible Notes may also surrender their notes for conversion after October 15, 2014 at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the stated maturity date. Accordingly, the Company will treat the remaining Convertible Notes as short-term in nature hereafter. In the event that a holder exercises the right to convert his Convertible Notes, the Company will write-off a ratable portion of the associated debt issuance costs.

Concurrently with the issuance of the Convertible Notes, we entered into a privately negotiated convertible note hedge transaction with affiliates of the initial purchasers. Pursuant to the hedge transaction we purchased approximately 13.0 million ordinary share call options intended to reduce the potential dilution to our ordinary shares upon conversion of the Convertible Notes by effectively increasing the initial conversion price of the Convertible Notes to $40.00 per share, representing a 61.1% conversion premium over the closing price of our ordinary shares on April 9, 2008 of $24.85 per share. Also, as part of the note hedge transaction, we sold warrants to affiliates of certain of the initial purchasers whereby they had the option to purchase up to approximately 13.0 million of our ordinary shares at an initial strike price of $40.00 per share.

In connection with the May 2014 and July 2014 Convertible Notes repurchase activity, we entered into agreements with the note hedge counterparty to settle a portion of the call options and warrants. In connection with these agreements, as part of the May 2014 and July 2014 repurchases, we settled call options representing the right to purchase approximately 8.2 million and 1.4 million ordinary shares, respectively, for total cash consideration paid by the counterparty of $302.1 million and $54.2 million, respectively, which were recorded as increases to Additional paid-in capital. The remaining call options, which allow us to purchase up to approximately an additional 3.4 million of our ordinary shares at a strike price of $29.20 per share, expire on April 15, 2015 and must be net-share settled. In connection with these agreements, as part of the May 2014 and July 2014 repurchases, we also settled approximately 8.2 million and 1.4 million, respectively, of warrants for cash consideration paid by EHSI of $242.2 million and $42.3 million, respectively, which were recorded as reductions to Additional paid-in capital. Subsequent to these transactions, the holders of the remaining warrants have the option to purchase up to approximately 3.4 million of our ordinary shares at strike price of $40.00 per share. The remaining warrants expire on various dates from July 14, 2015 through October 6, 2015 and must be net-share settled. The remaining warrants have a dilutive effect on our net income per share to the extent that the price of our ordinary shares exceeds the strike price of the warrants at exercise.

As discussed in Note 18. Net (Loss) Income Per Share, in periods in which our ordinary shares price exceeds the conversion price of the Convertible Notes or the strike price of the warrants, we include the effects of the additional shares that may be issued in our diluted net (loss) income per share calculation using the treasury stock method.

Offer to Exchange

On May 6, 2014, the Company announced the settlement of EHSI's private placement offers to exchange any and all of the outstanding unsecured 7.00% Senior Notes due 2019 (the 2019 Existing EHSI Notes), 7.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the 2020 Existing EHSI Notes) and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2022 (the 2022 Existing EHSI Notes and, together with the 2019 Existing EHSI Notes and 2020 Existing EHSI Notes, the Existing EHSI Notes) issued by EHSI, for new unsecured 7.00% Senior Notes due 2019 (the 2019 New Endo Finance Notes), 7.00% Senior Notes due 2020 (the 2020 New Endo Finance Notes) and 7.25% Senior Notes due 2022 (the 2022 New Endo Finance Notes and, together with the 2019 New Endo Finance Notes and 2020 New Endo Finance Notes, the New Endo Finance Notes), respectively, issued by Endo Finance LLC and Endo Finco Inc. and guaranteed by Endo Limited and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, and the related solicitations of consents to amend the Existing EHSI Notes and the indentures governing the Existing EHSI Notes. Consents were solicited in respect of the indentures governing each series of the Existing EHSI Notes to approve proposed amendments that, among other things, (i) deleted in their entirety substantially all the restrictive covenants in each indenture, (ii) modified the covenants regarding mergers and consolidations, and (iii) eliminated certain events of default.

EHSI accepted all $482.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2019 Existing EHSI Notes, $393.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2020 Existing EHSI Notes and $396.3 million in aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Existing EHSI Notes validly tendered for exchange and not validly withdrawn in the exchange offers. The final settlement took place on May 6, 2014, and a total of $481.9 million of 2019 New Endo Finance Notes was issued in exchange for such tendered 2019 Existing EHSI Notes, $393.0 million of 2020 New Endo Finance Notes was issued in exchange for such tendered 2020 Existing EHSI Notes and $396.3 million of 2022 New Endo Finance Notes was issued in exchange for such tendered 2022 Existing EHSI Notes. A total of $18.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2019 Existing EHSI Notes, $7.0 million aggregate principal amount of 2020 Existing EHSI Notes and $3.7 million aggregate principal amount of 2022 Existing EHSI Notes remained outstanding after settlement of the exchange offers.

The exchange offers were made only to eligible holders, and the New Endo Finance Notes were offered in reliance on exemptions from registration under the Securities Act. In connection with the issuance of the New Endo Finance Notes, Endo Finance LLC, Endo Finco Inc. and the guarantors of the New Endo Finance Notes entered into registration rights agreements with respect to each series of New Endo Finance Notes. Under the registration rights agreements, Endo Finance LLC, Endo Finco Inc. and the guarantors of the New Endo Finance Notes will be required to use their commercially reasonable efforts to (i) file with the SEC by March 31, 2015 an exchange offer registration statement pursuant to which they will offer, in exchange for each series of the New Endo Finance Notes, new notes having terms substantially identical in all material respects to those of the New Endo Finance Notes (except the new notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions) (the A/B Exchange Offers), (ii) complete the A/B Exchange Offers by July 31, 2015 and, under specified circumstances, (iii) file a shelf registration statement with the SEC covering resales of the New Endo Finance Notes. Endo Finance LLC and Endo Finco Inc. may be required to pay additional interest on the New Endo Finance Notes if they fail to comply with the registration and exchange requirements set forth in the registration rights agreements.

On April 17, 2014, EHSI entered into a supplemental indenture with respect to each series of the Existing EHSI Notes to effect the proposed amendments. Such proposed amendments became operative on May 6, 2014, upon settlement of the exchange offers and consent solicitations. The aggregate consent payment paid in connection with the consent solicitations was approximately $11.7 million, which was recorded as debt issuance costs. In connection with these transactions, we also charged $5.3 million to expense related to fees paid to third parties related to the exchange offer. This amount was included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as a Loss on extinguishment of debt.

Other than as described above, there have been no material changes to our other indebtedness from what was disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 3, 2014.
