Item 2.03    Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On November 18, 2016, Sable International Finance Limited (“Sable”) and Coral-US Co-Borrower LLC (“Coral US”), each an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Liberty Global plc, entered into a Joinder Agreement (the “Joinder”) in respect of the credit agreement dated May 16, 2016 (the “Credit Agreement”) between, among others, Sable and Coral US, as borrowers, The Bank of Nova Scotia, as administrative agent, and each lender party thereto. Pursuant to the Joinder, certain lenders agreed to provide a $300.0 million term loan facility (the “Term B-1B Loan Facility”) in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement. The loan under the Term B-1B Loan Facility constitutes an increase to the existing Term B-1 Loan under (and as defined in) the Credit Agreement.
The final maturity date for the Term B-1B Loan Facility is December 31, 2022. The Term B-1B Loan Facility bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 4.75% subject to a LIBOR floor of 0.75%. The net proceeds from the Term B-1B Loan Facility will be used to prepay indebtedness under the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement and for general corporate purposes.
The foregoing description of the Term B-1B Loan Facility is not complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the Joinder, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1.
