Item 1.01.  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On July 2, 2010, Exopack Holding Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of financial institutions, which amends and restates the Company’s Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of October 31, 2007. The Credit Agreement provides for a secured revolving credit facility in an amount of up to $125.0 million, which includes a Canadian dollar sub-facility available to the Company’s Canadian subsidiaries for up to $25.0 million (or the Canadian dollar equivalent).  Availability under the Credit Agreement is subject to borrowing base limitations described in the Credit Agreement for both the U.S. and the Canadian subsidiaries. 

 

Under the Credit Agreement, in general, interest will accrue on amounts outstanding under the U.S facility at a variable annual rate equal to the U.S. Index Rate (as defined therein) plus 2.0%, or at the Company’s election, at an annual rate equal to the LIBOR Rate (as defined therein) plus 3.0%.  In general, interest will accrue on amounts outstanding under the Canadian sub-facility at a variable rate equal to the Canadian Index Rate (as defined therein) plus 2.0%, or at the Company’s election, at an annual rate equal to the BA Rate (as defined therein) plus 3.0%.

 

In general, in the absence of an event of default, the Credit Agreement matures at the earliest of (a) July 2, 2014, (b) ninety (90) days prior to the stated maturity of the 111/4% Senior Unsecured Notes due February 1, 2014 issued by the Company in an aggregate original principal amount up to $245.0 million, and (c) ninety (90) days prior to the stated maturity of the Bemis Debt (as such term is defined in the Credit Agreement).

 

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative and negative covenants that restrict the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ ability to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, engage in mergers, acquisitions and asset sales, declare dividends and distributions, redeem or repurchase equity interests, incur contingent obligations, prepay certain subordinated indebtedness, make loans, certain payments and investments and enter into transactions with affiliates.

 

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay customary closing fees, letter of credit fees and unused line fees for a credit facility of this size and type.

 

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement is only a summary and does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and is incorporated herein by reference.
