Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.
On March 13, 2024, Rackspace Technology, Inc. (the “Company”) commenced an offer (the “Public Term Loan Exchange”) to all term lenders under the first lien credit agreement, dated as of November 3, 2016 (as amended from time to time, the “Existing Credit Agreement”) of its indirect subsidiary Rackspace Technology Global, Inc. (the “Existing Borrower”). Assuming full participation in the Public Term Loan Exchange, we expect that (i) $592.3 million aggregate principal amount of the term loans under the Existing Credit Agreement (the “Existing Term Loans”) would be exchanged or purchased for cancellation and (ii) $418.8 million aggregate principal amount of new first lien second out term loans would be issued by Rackspace Finance, LLC (the “New Borrower”). The Public Term Loan Exchange is open to all of the Company’s term lenders under the Existing Credit Agreement.
The Company expects to launch an exchange offer (the “Public Note Exchange”) to eligible holders to exchange the 3.50% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2028 (the “Existing Secured Notes”) issued by the Existing Borrower for 3.50% FLSO Senior Secured Notes due 2028 issued by the New Borrower on substantially the same terms as the Public Term Loan Exchange.
The information in this Current Report on Form 8-K is being “furnished” pursuant to Item 7.01 and shall not be deemed to be “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, and is not incorporated by reference into any Company filing, whether made before or after the date hereof, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing and regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
This report is for informational purposes only and shall not constitute or form part of any offer or invitation to purchase or sell, or any solicitation of any offer to sell or purchase, notes or any other securities or debt instruments, and neither this report nor any part of it, nor the fact of its release, shall form the basis of, or be relied on or in connection with, any contract therefor. The Public Term Loan Exchange is being made only by and pursuant to the terms and conditions of an exchange agreement that is only being made available to holders of the Existing Term Loans. The complete terms and conditions of the Public Term Loan Exchange for the Existing Term Loans are set forth in such exchange agreement. The Public Note Exchange will be made only by and pursuant to the terms and conditions of a confidential exchange offering memorandum that will only be made available to eligible holders of the Existing Secured Notes. The complete terms and conditions of the Public Note Exchange will be set forth in such confidential offering memorandum. None of the Company, the Existing Borrower, the New Borrower or any of their affiliates takes any position or makes any recommendation as to whether or not eligible holders should participate in the Public Term Loan Exchange or the Public Note Exchange.
