Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
Telenet International Finance S.á.r.l. (the “Facility AG Borrower”) has entered into the financing described below by way of additional facilities drawn under the credit agreement originally dated August 1, 2007 as amended from time to time and last amended and restated on November 2, 2015 and made between, amongst others, Telenet BVBA as original borrower and The Bank of Nova Scotia as facility agent (the “Credit Agreement”). The Facility AG Borrower is a direct subsidiary of Telenet BVBA, and Telenet BVBA is an indirect subsidiary of Liberty Global plc.
On November 22, 2016 the Facility AG Borrower, certain other Guarantors and Existing Security Providers (as defined in the Credit Agreement) and The Bank of Nova Scotia as facility agent entered into a €400.0 million additional facility accession agreement (the “AG Accession Agreement”) pursuant to the Credit Agreement. Under the terms of the AG Accession Agreement, certain lenders have agreed to provide a €400.0 million revolving loan facility (“Facility AG”) to the Facility AG Borrower. The final maturity date for Facility AG will be June 30, 2023. Facility AG will bear interest at a rate of EURIBOR plus 2.75% subject to a EURIBOR floor of 0.00%. Facility AG can be utilized by the Facility AG Borrower for its general corporate purposes and/or working capital purposes of the Group (as defined in the Credit Agreement).
The AG Accession Agreement provides that the lenders under Facility AG consent to the amendments to the covenants and other provisions of the Credit Agreement and the Finance Documents (as defined in the Credit Agreement) outlined in the AG Accession Agreement (including in the schedules thereto). Once the consent of the requisite lenders is obtained under the Credit Agreement, such amendments may be implemented at the election of Telenet BVBA.
The foregoing descriptions of Facility AG and the transactions contemplated thereby are not complete and are subject to and qualified in their entirety by reference to the AG Accession Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto at Exhibit 4.1.
