Senior Credit Agreement

In November 2011, the Company entered into a Senior Credit Agreement with a syndication of banks, which provided $1.25 billion in U.S. Term Loans (the "U.S. Term Loans") and contains a $1.25 billion revolving facility (the "Revolving Facility," and together with the U.S. Term Loans, the "Senior Credit Facilities"). The proceeds of the U.S. Term Loans and borrowings under the Revolving Facility were used to repay amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement and to pay the related fees and expenses of the foregoing transactions.

The Revolving Facility consists of a $750 million U.S. dollar-denominated tranche (the "U.S. Revolving Facility") and a $500 million alternative currency tranche (the "Alternative Currency Revolving Facility"). The U.S. Revolving Facility is available to the Company for borrowings in U.S. Dollars, and the Alternative Currency Revolving Facility is available to the Company for borrowings in U.S. Dollars, Euros, Sterling, Yen and such other currencies as are acceptable to each lender under the Alternative Currency Revolving Facility. The Revolving Facility includes a $125 million subfacility for the issuance of letters of credit and a $100 million subfacility for swingline borrowings. The Company may incur additional term loan commitments or increases in the amount of the commitments under the Revolving Facility (the "Incremental Commitments") in an aggregate principal amount of up to $750 million plus any previously made scheduled or voluntary (other than any debt refinanced) principal payments of U.S. Term Loans from Lenders or other financial institutions designated by the Company, to the extent agreed by such Lenders or other financial institutions. The Senior Credit Facilities are guaranteed by substantially all of the Company's domestic subsidiaries (the "Guarantors"). The Senior Credit Facilities are also secured by a pledge of the capital stock of substantially all direct subsidiaries of the Company and the Guarantors (limited to 65% of outstanding voting stock of foreign holding companies and any foreign subsidiaries) and substantially all of the other tangible and intangible property and assets of the Company and the Guarantors.

As of December 31, 2011, the U.S. Term Loans currently bear interest at LIBOR plus 2.00% per annum, if the Company chooses to make LIBOR borrowings, or at a base rate plus 1.00% per annum. The applicable margins over LIBOR and the base rate for the Revolving Facility and the U.S. Term Loans can fluctuate based on a calculation of the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement. At December 31, 2011, the Company had no amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility. The Company also pays a facility fee on the entire amount of the Revolving Facility. The facility fee is currently 0.40% per annum, but can decrease to 0.30% per annum based on the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio, as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement.

The U.S. Term Loans mature on November 14, 2016 and require amortization payments of approximately $23.4 million per quarter in each of 2012 and 2013, $31.3 million per quarter in 2014, $46.9 million per quarter in 2015 and $187.5 million per quarter in 2016. The Senior Credit Agreement requires prepayments of the U.S. Term Loans with the proceeds from (1) certain asset sales and casualty events, unless the Company's Consolidated Leverage Ratio is equal to or less than 3.25 to 1.0, and (2) the proceeds from certain issuances of indebtedness not permitted by the Senior Credit Agreement. Amounts drawn on the Revolving Facility become due and payable on November 14, 2016. The U.S. Term Loans and amounts drawn on the Revolving Facility may be voluntarily prepaid without penalty or premium.

The Senior Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants for facilities of this type, including among others, covenants pertaining to the delivery of financial statements, notices of default and certain material events, maintenance of business and insurance, collateral matters and compliance with laws, as well as customary negative covenants for facilities of this type, including limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and liens, mergers and certain other fundamental changes, investments and loans, acquisitions, transactions with affiliates, dispositions of assets, payments of dividends and other restricted payments, prepayments or amendments to the terms of specified indebtedness and changes in our lines of business. The Senior Credit Agreement contains financial covenants requiring maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum consolidated leverage ratio.

The Senior Credit Agreement contains default provisions customary for facilities of this type, which are subject to customary grace periods and materiality thresholds.

During any period when the Company maintains an investment grade rating from both Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") and Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), and no default has occurred and is continuing under the Senior Credit Agreement, the restrictions imposed by certain negative covenants under the Senior Credit Agreement will be suspended. Additionally, during such time the Company may require that all collateral then in effect be released from the security interest created pursuant to the security documents so long as no Refinancing Indebtedness (as defined in the Senior Credit Agreement) secured by a lien on any assets of the Company or any of the Guarantors is outstanding (or any such lien is contemporaneously released). Upon the occurrence of a ratings downgrade by either S&P or Moody's to a level below investment grade status or upon the Company ceasing to have a corporate credit rating by either such agency (or a successor thereto), the collateral is required to be reinstated.

Senior Notes

In May 2010, the Company issued $550.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.625% Senior Notes due 2017 (the "2017 Senior Notes") and $700.0 million aggregate principal amount of 7.875% Senior Notes due 2020 (the "2020 Senior Notes") in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933 (the "Securities Act") to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and to persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. In July 2010, the Company privately placed $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes through a reopening of the 2020 Senior Notes. The notes were issued at a price of 105.5%, giving an effective yield to maturity of 7.087%. The 2017 Senior Notes and 2020 Senior Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

The 2017 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.625% per year, accruing from May 19, 2010. Interest on the 2017 Senior Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2011. The 2017 Senior Notes will mature on July 15, 2017, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the indenture. The 2020 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 7.875% per year, accruing from May 19, 2010. Interest on the 2020 Senior Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning on January 15, 2011. The 2020 Senior Notes will mature on July 15, 2020, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the indenture. At December 31, 2011, the $1.01 billion of debt associated with the 2020 Senior Notes includes a $14.6 million premium.

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2017 Senior Notes at any time prior to July 15, 2014, and some or all of the 2020 Senior Notes at any time prior to July 15, 2015, in each case at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date and an applicable make-whole premium set forth in the indenture. On or after July 15, 2014 in the case of the 2017 Senior Notes, and on or after July 15, 2015 in the case of the 2020 Senior Notes, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2017 Senior Notes and 2020 Senior Notes of such series at redemption prices set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to July 15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of either series of the 2017 Senior Notes and 2020 Senior Notes at a specified redemption price set forth in the indenture with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, it must offer to repurchase the 2017 Senior Notes and 2020 Senior Notes at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

In November 2010, the Company issued $800.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.0% Senior Notes due 2018. These notes were issued in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and to persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The 2018 Senior Notes are Mylan's senior unsecured obligations and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of the Company's domestic subsidiaries.

The 2018 Senior Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.0% per year, accruing from November 24, 2010. Interest on the 2018 Senior Notes is payable semiannually in arrears on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning on May 15, 2011. The 2018 Senior Notes will mature on November 15, 2018, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the indenture. At December 31, 2011, the $818.8 million of 2018 Senior Notes is net of an $11.0 million discount and includes a fair value adjustment of $29.8 million. In January 2011, $500.0 million of the outstanding fixed-rate 2018 Senior Notes was swapped to a variable rate of LIBOR plus 2.96%.

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2018 Senior Notes at any time prior to November 15, 2014 at a price equal to 100% of the principal amount redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date and an applicable make-whole premium set forth in the indenture. On or after November 15, 2014 the Company may redeem some or all of the 2018 Senior Notes at redemption prices set forth in the indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the redemption date. In addition, at any time prior to November 15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2018 Senior Notes at a specified redemption price set forth in the indenture with the net cash proceeds of certain equity offerings. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, it must offer to repurchase the 2018 at 101% of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the repurchase date.

In May 2010, the Company used $1.00 billion of the net proceeds of the initial 2017 Senior Notes and 2020 Senior Notes offering to repay a portion of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans due under the terms of its Prior Credit Agreement. In September 2010, the Company also repaid an additional amount of $300.0 million of debt under the Prior Credit Agreement, by repaying the remaining balance of the U.S. Tranche A Term Loans and a portion of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans, using cash on hand. In November 2010, the Company used $800 million of gross proceeds from the 2018 Senior Notes offering to repay an additional portion of the U.S. Tranche B Term Loans due under the terms of its Prior Credit Agreement. As a result of these repayments, the Company reduced senior secured leverage and extended the maturity profile of Mylan's outstanding indebtedness.

Cash Convertible Notes

In September 2008, Mylan issued $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of Cash Convertible Notes due 2015 ("Cash Convertible Notes"). The Cash Convertible Notes bear stated interest at a rate of 3.75% per year, accruing from September 15, 2008. The effective interest rate used for interest expense purposes is 9.5%. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning on March 15, 2009. The Cash Convertible Notes will mature on September 15, 2015, subject to earlier repurchase or conversion. Holders may convert their notes subject to certain conversion provisions determined by the market price of the Company's common stock, specified distributions to common shareholders, a fundamental change, and certain time periods specified in the purchase agreement. The Cash Convertible Notes had an initial conversion reference rate of 75.0751 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion reference price of $13.32 per share), subject to standard anti-dilution adjustments, with the principal amount and remainder payable in cash. These adjustments include stock splits, issuances of dividends, rights, warrants, other securities, indebtedness, other assets or property to all holders of our common stock, or other issuances to all holders of our common stock on a preferential basis, and are designed to protect the economic position of the note holder by restoring the value of the note from the impact of such dilutive transactions. The Cash Convertible Notes are not convertible into our common stock or any other securities under any circumstance.

On September 15, 2008, concurrent with the sale of $575.0 million aggregate principal amount of Cash Convertible Notes due 2015 (the "Cash Convertible Notes"), Mylan entered into a convertible note hedge and warrant transaction with certain counterparties. Pursuant to the warrant transactions, the Company sold to the counterparties warrants to purchase in the aggregate up to approximately 43.2 million shares of Mylan common stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to the anti-dilution adjustments for the Cash Convertible Notes, which under most circumstances represents the maximum number of shares that underlie the conversion reference rate for the Cash Convertible Notes. The sold warrants had an exercise price of $20.00 and will be net share settled, meaning that Mylan will issue a number of shares per warrant corresponding to the difference between its share price at each warrant expiration date and the exercise price. The warrants meet the definition of derivatives under the guidance in ASC 815; however, because these instruments have been determined to be indexed to the Company's own stock and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC 815-40, the warrants have been recorded in shareholders' equity in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

In the third quarter of 2011, the Company entered into amendments with the counterparties to exchange the original warrants with an exercise price of $20.00 (the "Old Warrants") with new warrants with an exercise price of $30.00 (the "New Warrants"). Approximately 41.0 million of the Old Warrants were exchanged in the transaction. All other terms and settlement provisions of the Old Warrants remain unchanged in the New Warrants. As part of the amendments, the Company paid the holders of the Old Warrants approximately $3.66 per warrant or $150 million in total.

At December 31, 2011, the total liability of $937.2 million consists of $477.2 million of debt ($575.0 million face amount, net of $97.8 million discount) and the bifurcated conversion feature with a fair value of $460.0 million recorded as a liability within long-term debt at December 31, 2011. Additionally, the Company has purchased call options, which are recorded as assets at their fair value of $460.0 million within other assets at December 31, 2011. At December 31, 2010, the total liability of $928.3 million consisted of $455.9 million of debt ($575.0 million face amount, net of $119.1 million discount) and the bifurcated conversion feature with a fair value of $472.4 million recorded as a liability within other long-term obligations in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. The purchased call options are assets recorded at their fair value of $472.4 million within other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2010.

Holders may convert their notes subject to certain conversion provisions including (i) during any quarter if the closing price of our common stock exceeds 130% of the respective conversion price per share. During a defined period at the end of the previous quarter; (ii) during a defined period following five consecutive trading days in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount was less than 98% of the product of the closing price of our common stock on such day and the applicable conversion reference rate; (iii) if the Company makes specified distributions to holders of our common stock including sales of rights or common stock on a preferential basis, certain distribution of assets or other securities or rights to all holders of our common stock or certain transactions resulting in substantially all shares of our common stock being converted into cash, securities or other property; or (iv) upon a change of control or if our securities cease to be traded on a major U.S. stock exchange. The amount payable per $1,000 notional bond would be calculated as the product of (1) the conversion reference rate (currently 75.0751) and (2) the average Daily Volume Weighted Average Price per share of common stock for a specified period following the conversion date. Any payment above the principal amount is matched by a convertible note hedge.

 

As of December 31, 2011, because the closing price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days in the period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day in the December 31, 2011 period, was more than 130% of the applicable conversion reference price of $13.32, the $575.0 million of Cash Convertible Notes was currently convertible. Although the Company's experience is that convertible debentures are not normally converted by investors until close to their maturity date, it is possible that debentures could be converted prior to their maturity date if, for example, a holder perceives the market for the debentures to be weaker than the market for the common stock. Upon an investor's election to convert, the Company is required to pay the full conversion value in cash. Should holders elect to convert, the Company intends to draw on its revolving credit facility to fund any principal payments.

Senior Convertible Notes

In March 2007, Mylan issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of 1.25% Senior Convertible Notes due 2012 (the "Senior Convertible Notes"). This amount is now included in the current portion of long-term debt. The Senior Convertible Notes bear interest at a rate of 1.25% per year, accruing from March 7, 2007. The effective interest rate used for interest expense purposes is 6.4%. Interest is payable semiannually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year, beginning September 15, 2007. The Senior Convertible Notes will mature on March 15, 2012, subject to earlier repurchase or conversion. Holders may convert their notes subject to certain conversion provisions determined by, among others, the market price of the Company's common stock and the trading price of the Senior Convertible Notes. The Senior Convertible Notes had an initial conversion rate of 44.5931 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $22.43 per share), subject to adjustment, with the principal amount payable in cash and the remainder in cash or stock at the option of the Company. Currently, the effective conversion rate for the Senior Convertible Notes is 41.678 shares of common stock per $1,000 principal amount of notes, representing a stock price of $23.99 per share and reflecting the Company's suspension of its cash dividend. A further adjustment was not made in the fourth quarter of 2011 as it would not change the conversion price by at least 1% as required by the indenture. This adjustment not made will have an effect on the conversion of the notes and will reduce the conversion rate to 41.539. At December 31, 2011, the $594.0 million of debt is net of a $6.0 million discount. At December 31, 2010, the $565.5 million debt is net of a $34.5 million discount.

In March 2007, concurrent with the issuance of the Senior Convertible Notes, Mylan entered into a convertible note hedge transaction, comprised of a purchased call option and two warrant transactions with two financial institutions, each of which the Company refers to as a counterparty. The net cost of the transactions was $80.6 million. The purchased call options will cover approximately 26.8 million shares of Mylan common stock, subject to anti-dilution adjustments substantially similar to the anti-dilution adjustments for the Senior Convertible Notes, which under most circumstances represents the maximum number of shares that underlie the Senior Convertible Notes. Concurrently with entering into the purchased call options, the Company entered into warrant transactions with the counterparties. Pursuant to the warrant transactions, the Company sold to the counterparties warrants to purchase in the aggregate approximately 26.8 million shares of Mylan common stock, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustments. The warrants may not be exercised prior to the maturity of the Senior Convertible Notes, subject to certain limited exceptions.

The purchased call options are expected to reduce the potential dilution upon conversion of the Senior Convertible Notes in the event that the market value per share of Mylan common stock at the time of exercise is greater than the then effective conversion price of the Senior Convertible Notes. The sold warrants had an initial exercise price that was 60% higher than the price per share of $19.50 at which the Company offered common stock in a concurrent equity offering. If the market price per share of Mylan common stock at the time of conversion of any Senior Convertible Notes is above the strike price of the purchased call options, the purchased call options will, in most cases, entitle the Company to receive from the counterparties in the aggregate the same number of shares of our common stock as the Company would be required to issue to the holder of the converted Senior Convertible Notes. Additionally, if the market price of Mylan common stock at the time of exercise of the sold warrants exceeds the strike price of the sold warrants, the Company will owe the counterparties an aggregate of approximately 26.8 million shares of Mylan common stock. The purchased call options and sold warrants may be settled for cash at the Company's election.

The purchased call options and sold warrants are separate transactions entered into by the Company with the counterparties, are not part of the terms of the Senior Convertible Notes, and will not affect the holders' rights under the Senior Convertible Notes. The purchased call options and sold warrants meet the definition of derivatives. However, because these instruments have been determined to be indexed to the Company's own stock and have been recorded in stockholders' equity in the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets, the instruments are exempted from the scope of GAAP requirements for accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities and are not subject to the fair value provisions of that accounting guidance.

All financing fees associated with the Company's borrowings are being amortized over the life of the related debt. The total unamortized amounts of $52.4 million and $61.8 million are included in other assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets at December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010. In conjunction with the refinancing of debt, approximately $20.1 million of deferred financing fees were written off during the year ended December 31, 2011.

At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the fair value of the Senior Notes and Senior Convertible Notes was approximately $3.15 billion and $3.06 billion, respectively. At December 31, 2011 and 2010, the fair value of the Cash Convertible Notes was approximately $1.00 billion and $996.2 million, respectively.

At December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Company had outstanding letters of credit of $79.8 million and $85.4 million.

Certain of the Company's debt agreements contain certain cross-default provisions.

Mandatory minimum repayments remaining on the outstanding borrowings under the term loans and notes at December 31, 2011, excluding the discounts, premium and conversion features, are as follows for each of the periods ending December 31:
