Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Amendment to Senior Secured Credit Facility

 

NCL Corporation Ltd. (“NCLC”), a subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings Ltd., entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 6, 2016, with Voyager Vessel Company, LLC, an indirect subsidiary of NCLC, as co-borrower, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (“JPM”), as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and a syndicate of other banks party thereto as joint bookrunners, arrangers, co-documentation agents and lenders (the “Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility”), which amends and restates the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of October 31, 2014, by and among NCLC, JPM, as administrative agent and as collateral agent, and a syndicate of other banks party thereto as joint bookrunners, arrangers, co-documentation agents and lenders (the “Existing Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The Amended Senior Secured Credit Facility amends the Existing Senior Secured Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) (a) increase the aggregate amount of commitments under the revolver from $625.0 million (the “Existing Revolving Facility”) to $750.0 million (the “New Revolving Facility”) and (b) increase the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the existing senior secured term A facility from $1.16 billion (the “Existing Term A Facility”) to approximately $1.51 billion (the “New Term A Facility”) and (ii) extend the maturity of the New Term A Facility and the New Revolving Facility to June 2021 (the “Extended Maturity Date”), incorporating a springing maturity date for the New Term A Facility and the New Revolving Facility such that both mature on (A) the earlier date that is 91 days prior to the final maturity date of NCLC’s 5.25% senior notes due 2019 (the “5.25% Notes”) if on such date (x) the 5.25% Notes have not been repaid (or refinanced with indebtedness maturing after the Extended Maturity Date) by such date and (y) free liquidity does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of outstanding 5.25% Notes by at least $50.0 million and (B) the earlier date that is 91 days prior to the final maturity date of NCLC’s 4.625% senior notes due 2020 (the “4.625% Notes”) if on such date (x) the 4.625% Notes have not been repaid (or refinanced with indebtedness maturing after the Extended Maturity Date) by such date and (y) free liquidity does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of outstanding 4.625% Notes by at least $50.0 million. NCLC used proceeds of approximately $1.59 billion from the New Term A Facility and the New Revolving Facility to prepay the entire outstanding principal amount of the Existing Revolving Facility, the Existing Term A Facility and its senior secured term B facility under the Existing Senior Secured Facility.
