Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment to the DIP Credit Agreement and Supplements to the Prepetition Second Lien Indenture

Sun Edison, Inc. (the “Company”), a debtor and debtor-in-possession in a pending case (the “Chapter 11 Case”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code, obtained certain amendments to that certain Senior Secured Superpriority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement, dated as of April 26, 2016 (as amended, the “DIP Credit Agreement”), entered into by and among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “DIP Lenders”), Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “DIP Agent”), and the letter of credit issuers and other financial institutions and entities party thereto from time to time. Such amendments are reflected in that certain Amendment No. 5 to Senior Secured Superpriority Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement, dated as of July 28, 2016 (the “DIP Amendment”), among the Company, the DIP Lenders party thereto and the DIP Agent.

The DIP Amendment modifies certain provisions in the DIP Credit Agreement relating to, among other things: (a) guaranty and collateral matters; (b) certain milestones relating to the Company’s restructuring efforts; (c) asset sales, including designated assets that constitute permitted dispositions under the DIP Credit Agreement; (d) intercompany loans and restricted payments; (e) withdrawals from the DIP Facilities Blocked Accounts (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement); and (f) permitted liens. In connection with the DIP Amendment, the requisite DIP Lenders also approved an updated 13-week budget.

In addition, the Company finalized certain amendments to that certain Indenture, dated as of January 11, 2016 (as amended, the “Prepetition Second Lien Indenture”), that governs the Company’s existing outstanding 5% Guaranteed Convertible Senior Secured Notes due 2018 (the “Prepetition Second Lien Notes”), entered into by and among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto as guarantors and Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Notes Trustee”). Such amendments are reflected in that certain First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 9, 2016 (the “First Supplemental Indenture”), among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto as guarantors and the Notes Trustee. The First Supplemental Indenture modifies certain provisions in the Prepetition Second Lien Indenture in order to (a) facilitate the provision by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries of guaranties of, and liens securing, the Prepetition Second Lien Notes pursuant to covenants of the Company set forth in the DIP Credit Agreement and (b) empower, authorize and direct the Notes Trustee to take actions related to the performance by the Company and its subsidiaries under the DIP Credit Agreement and/or the Final DIP Financing Order. In connection therewith, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries that are also guarantors under the DIP Credit Agreement (collectively, the “Additional Guarantors”) also entered into that certain Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of August 10, 2016 (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), among the Company, the Additional Guarantors and the Notes Trustee, documenting the guaranty of the Prepetition Second Lien Notes required by the DIP Credit Agreement. The Additional Guarantors also provided a guaranty of the obligations under the Company’s Second Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of January 11, 2016 (as amended, the “Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement”). In connection with such guaranties, the Additional Guarantors also granted liens on their assets that constitute collateral under the DIP Credit Agreement, which liens secure the Prepetition Second Lien Notes and obligations under the Company’s Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement.

The foregoing descriptions of the First Supplemental Indenture, the Second Supplemental Indenture and the DIP Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of such documents, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1 hereto, respectively, and are incorporated by reference herein.

 

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

In connection with the DIP Amendment, on July 8, 2016, the Company delivered an updated Schedule 5.13(a) to the DIP Credit Agreement consisting of an updated organizational structure chart of the Company and its subsidiaries. The DIP Amendment amended Schedule 1.01(f), the list of “Specified Subsidiaries,” which subsidiaries are required to become secured guarantors of the Company’s obligations under the DIP Credit Agreement as well as the obligations under the Company’s Prepetition Second Lien Credit Agreement and the Prepetition Second Lien Notes, subject to exceptions as set forth therein. The organizational chart, Schedule 1.01(f) and the entire list of secured guarantors party to the DIP Credit Agreement and the Prepetition Second Lien Indenture dated as of August 7, 2016 (collectively, the “Disclosure Materials”) are attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
