Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendment to Sabre Credit Agreement
On March 2, 2018, Sabre GLBL Inc. (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sabre Corporation (“Sabre,” the “Corporation,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), Sabre Holdings Corporation (“Holdings”) and the several guarantors thereunder entered into the Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment (as defined below), dated March 2, 2018, amending the Borrower’s senior secured credit facilities. The Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment was entered into pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of February 19, 2013 (as further amended on September 30, 2013, February 20, 2014, July 18, 2016, February 22, 2017 and August 23, 2017, the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Borrower, Holdings, the lenders party thereto, the other parties thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”).
The Fifth Term B Loan Refinancing Amendment to the Credit Agreement among the Borrower, Holdings, each of the other Loan Parties (as defined in the Credit Agreement) party thereto, the Administrative Agent and the 2018 Other Term B Lenders (as defined therein) party thereto (the “Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment”) provides dollar-denominated “Term Loan B” tranche of term loans in an aggregate principal amount of approximately $1.88 billion (the “2018 Other Term B Loans”), maturing on February 22, 2024, and amends certain provisions of the Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment, interest rates for the Term Loan B tranche are calculated in accordance with the Credit Agreement, with the applicable interest rate margins reduced to 2.00% per annum for Eurocurrency rate loans and 1.00% per annum for base rate loans. The proceeds of the 2018 Other Term B Loans were used to pay off in full all $1.88 billion of the existing Term B Loans incurred prior to March 2, 2018 under the Credit Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Term Loan B Refinancing Amendment, which is incorporated herein by reference to Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
