Term Loan Credit Agreement

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Credit Agreement”) with certain funds affiliated with Kennedy Lewis Investment Management LLC (“KLIM”) as lenders (the “Term Loan Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent. Pursuant to the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Term Loan Lenders provided the Company with (i) an initial term loan in the amount of $225 million, which was drawn in full on the same date, and (ii) a commitment to provide delayed draw term loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to $50 million on or before February 26, 2023 (collectively, the “Term Loans”). Net proceeds from the Term Loan Credit Agreement were $215 million ($225 million aggregate principal less $10 million in debt transaction costs).  The Term Loans have a five-year maturity and are non-amortizing.

 

The Term Loans bear interest at a rate of 8.5% per annum payable quarterly in cash and 4.0% per annum Paid-In-Kind interest (“PIK”) or in cash quarterly, at the Company’s option, for an aggregate interest rate of 12.5% per annum.  The Company expects to elect the 4.0% per annum in PIK which will be added to the carrying value of the debt through the term and interest expense will be recorded using the effective interest method. The Term Loans are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), and are secured by (i) a first priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) not constituting ABL Priority Collateral or L/C Cash Collateral (see below for definitions of ABL Priority Collateral and L/C Cash Collateral), including 100% of the stock of material U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of material foreign subsidiaries (the “Term Loan Priority Collateral”) and (ii) a third priority lien on the ABL Priority Collateral and L/C Cash Collateral. The Term Loan Credit Agreement limits, among other things, the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement) to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur or create liens, (iii) dispose of assets, (iv) make restricted payments and (v) make investments, and also contains customary affirmative covenants including delivery of certain of the Company’s financial statements set forth therein.  The Term Loan Credit Agreement does not include a financial maintenance covenant.

 

Board Rights Agreement

On February 26, 2021, in connection with the execution of the Term Loan Credit Agreement, the Company entered into a letter agreement with KLIM (the “Board Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Board Rights Agreement, the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”) appointed an individual designated by KLIM as a member of the Board effective April 1, 2021.  The individual appointed has been nominated for reelection at the next annual meeting on May 19, 2021.  KLIM also has the right to nominate one (1) director at each annual or special meeting of the Company’s shareholders until the third anniversary of the execution of the Board Rights Agreement or until KLIM ceases to hold at least 50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans and commitments under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, whichever is earlier.

 

Until KLIM ceases to hold at least 50% of the original principal amount of the Term Loans and commitments under the Term Loan Credit Agreement, at any time that KLIM’s designated director is not serving on the Board, KLIM will have the right to designate a non-voting observer to the Board. Such observer will have the right to attend meetings of the Board and, under certain circumstances, committees and subcommittees of the Board and to receive information and materials made available to the Board, in each case, subject to certain restrictions and exceptions.

 

Securities Purchase Agreement

On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Term Loan Lenders (the “Buyers”), entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the

“Securities Purchase Agreement”) pursuant to which the Company sold to the Buyers (i) an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares (the “Purchased Shares”) of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) for a purchase price of $10.00 in cash per share for an aggregate purchase price of $10 million and (ii) $25 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s newly issued 5.0% unsecured convertible promissory notes due May 28, 2026 (the “Convertible Notes”) in a private placement transaction. The issuance and sale of the Purchased Shares and Convertible Notes were consummated on February 26, 2021.

 

Convertible Notes

 

The Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.0% per annum, which will be payable in cash on the maturity date and in additional shares of Common Stock on any conversion date. The payment of interest only at the maturity date has the same effect as delivering additional debt instruments to the Holders of the Convertible Notes and therefore is considered PIK.  Therefore, PIK will be added to the carrying value of the debt through the term and interest expense will be recorded using the effective interest method. The maturity date of the Convertible Notes is May 28, 2026.

 

Conversion Features

The Buyers will have the right to elect at any time to convert the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock at an initial conversion rate equal to 100 shares of Common Stock per each $1,000 principal amount of the Convertible Notes (based on an initial conversion price equal to $10.00 per share of Common Stock). The conversion rate and conversion price will be subject to certain customary anti-dilution adjustments.

 

If the closing price of the Common Stock equals or exceeds $14.50 (subject to adjustment in the same manner as the conversion price) for 45 trading days within any period of 60 consecutive trading days, the Company will have the right to cause the mandatory conversion of the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock.

 

In the event of certain fundamental transactions, the Buyers will have the right, within a period of 30 days following the occurrence of such transaction (“Holder Fundamental Transaction Election Period”), to elect to either require prepayment of the Convertible Notes at par plus accrued and unpaid interest or convert all or a portion of the Convertible Notes into shares of Common Stock at the conversion rate then in effect plus any additional shares based on the price per share of Common Stock in connection with the fundamental transaction, or to receive the shares of a successor entity, if any.

 

Embedded Derivatives

The Convertible Notes were considered more akin to a debt-type instrument and the economic characteristics and risks of the embedded conversion features are not considered clearly and closely related to the Convertible Notes. Accordingly, these embedded features were bifurcated from the Convertible Notes and separately accounted for on a combined basis at fair value as a single derivative liability. Kodak allocated $12 million of the net proceeds received to a derivative liability based on the aggregate fair value of the embedded features on the date of issuance which reduced the net carrying value of the Convertible Notes. The derivative is being accounted for at fair value with subsequent changes in the fair value being reported as part of Other income, net in the Consolidated Statement of Operations. The fair value of the Convertible Notes embedded derivative as of March 31, 2021 was a liability of $11 million and is included in Other long-term liabilities in the accompanying Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.  Refer to Note 20, “Financial Instruments” for information on the valuation of the derivative.

 

The carrying value of the Convertible Notes as of March 31, 2021 and at the time of issuance was $13 million ($25 million aggregate gross proceeds less $12 million allocated to the derivative liability).  The estimated fair value of the Convertible Notes as of March 31, 2021 was $24 million (Level 3).  The carrying value is being accreted to the aggregate principal amount using the effective interest method from the date of issuance through the maturity date.

Securities Registration Rights Agreement

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Buyers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Securities Registration Rights Agreement”) providing the Buyers with registration rights in respect of the Purchased Shares and the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Convertible Notes. The Securities Registration Rights Agreement contains other customary terms and conditions, including certain customary indemnification obligations; however, the Securities Registration Rights Agreement does not obligate the Company to facilitate an underwritten offering of the registered Common Stock by the Buyers.

 

Amended and Restated ABL Credit Agreement

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into an amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2016, among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as agent (the “Agent”), and Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as arrangers (the “ABL Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the Amended ABL Credit Agreement, the “Amended ABL Credit Agreement”), with the Agent and the Required Lenders.  Each of the capitalized and undefined terms have the meaning ascribed to such term in the ABL Credit Agreement.

 

The Amended ABL Credit Agreement amends the ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) extend the maturity date to February 26, 2024 or the date that is 90 days prior to the earliest scheduled maturity date or mandatory redemption date of any of the Company’s Term Loan Credit Agreement, Convertible Notes, Series B Preferred Stock, Series C Preferred Stock or any refinancings of any of the foregoing and (ii) decrease the aggregate amount of commitments from $110 million to $90 million. Commitments under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement continue to be able to be used in the form of revolving loans or letters of credit.  The Company had issued approximately $42 million letters of credit under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement as of March 31, 2021 and $90 million letters of credit under the ABL Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2020.  

 

The revolving loans bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 3.50%-4.00% per annum (subject to provisions providing for a replacement benchmark rate upon the discontinuation of LIBOR) or a floating Base Rate (as defined in the Amended ABL Credit Agreement) plus 2.50%-3.00% per annum, based on Excess Availability (as defined in the Amended ABL Credit Agreement). The Company will pay an unused line fee of 37.5-50 basis points per annum, depending on whether the unused portion of the maximum amount available is less than or equal to 50% or greater than 50%, respectively.  The Company will pay a letter of credit fee of 3.50%-4.00% per annum, based on Excess Availability, on issued and outstanding letters of credit, in addition to a fronting fee of 25 basis points on such letters of credit.

 

Obligations under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement continue to be secured by: (i) a first priority lien on assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors constituting cash (other than L/C Cash Collateral, as defined below), accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment and certain other assets (the “ABL Priority Collateral”) and (ii) a second priority lien on substantially all assets of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors (subject to certain exceptions) other than the ABL Priority Collateral, including the L/C cash collateral and 100% of the stock of material U.S. subsidiaries and 65% of the stock of material foreign subsidiaries.

 

The Amended ABL Credit Agreement continues to limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries (as defined in the Amended ABL Credit Agreement) to (i) incur indebtedness, (ii) incur or create liens, (iii) dispose of assets, (iv) make restricted payments and (v) make investments. The Amended ABL Credit Agreement leaves in place customary affirmative covenants, including delivery of certain of the Company’s financial statements set forth therein.

 

Under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement the Company is required to maintain Minimum Liquidity of at least $80 million, which is tested at the end of each quarter.  Minimum Liquidity was $284 million at March 31, 2021.  If Minimum Liquidity falls below $80 million an Event of Default would occur and the Agent has the right to declare the obligation of each Lender to make Revolving Loans and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit to be terminated, and declare the Revolving Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement to be due and payable.

 

Under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement the Company is required to maintain Excess Availability above 12.5% of lender commitments ($11.25 million and $13.75 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively), which is tested at the end of each month.  Excess Availability was $41 million and $20 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively.  If Excess Availability falls below 12.5% of lender commitments a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Trigger Event would occur.  During any Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio Trigger Event, the Company would be required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of greater than or equal to 1.0 to 1.0. If Excess Availability falls below 12.5% of lender commitments, Kodak may, in addition to the requirement to be in compliance with the minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio, become subject to cash dominion control.  Since Excess Availability was greater than 12.5% of lender commitments at March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, Kodak is not required to have a minimum Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of 1.0 to 1.0. The Amended ABL Credit Agreement also removed Eligible Cash from the Borrowing Base.  Therefore, amounts funded into the Eligible Cash account will no longer increase Excess Availability for purposes of compliance reporting. As of December 31, 2020, to maintain Excess Availability of greater than 12.5% of lender commitments, Kodak funded $35 million to the Eligible Cash account held with the ABL Credit Agreement Administrative Agent, which was classified as Restricted Cash in the Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.

 

If Excess Availability falls below 12.5% of lender commitments and the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio is less than 1.0 to 1.0, an Event of Default would occur and the Agent has the right to declare the obligation of each Lender to make Revolving Loans and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit to be terminated, and declare the Revolving Loans, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under the Amended ABL Credit Agreement to be due and payable.

 

Letter of Credit Facility Agreement

 

On February 26, 2021, the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into a Letter of Credit Facility Agreement (the “L/C Facility Agreement”, and together with the Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Amended ABL Credit Agreement the “Credit Agreements”) among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, the lenders party thereto (the “L/C Lenders”), Bank of America, N.A., as agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as issuing bank. Pursuant to the L/C Facility Agreement, the L/C Lenders committed to issue letters of credit on the Company’s behalf in an aggregate amount of up to $50 million, provided that the Company posts cash collateral in an amount greater than or equal to 103% of the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding at any given time (the “L/C Cash Collateral”).

 

The term of the L/C Facility Agreement is three years, subject to the same automatic springing maturity as the Amended ABL Credit Agreement. The Company had issued approximately $48 million letters of credit under the L/C Facility Agreement as of March 31, 2021. The current balance on deposit in the L/C Cash Collateral account is approximately $49 million, of which $14 million was deposited into the L/C Cash Collateral account from proceeds of the financing transactions described herein and the remainder of which was cash collateral previously used to secure letters of credit under the ABL Credit Agreement. The L/C Facility Agreement has the same requirement to maintain Minimum Liquidity of $80 million as is contained in the Amended ABL Credit Agreement.
