Senior Credit Facilities

On July 31, 2013, the Company entered into (i) a senior secured first-lien revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), (ii) a senior secured first-lien term loan B in an aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million (the “Term Loan B Facility”) and (iii) a senior secured first-lien delayed draw term loan B in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility and the Term Loan B Facility, the “Senior Credit Facilities”) with SunTrust Bank, Jefferies Finance LLC and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc.

On December 23, 2013, the Company entered into the First Amendment to the Senior Credit Facilities pursuant to which the Company obtained the required consent of the lenders to enter into the Settlement Agreements (see Note 10 - Commitments and Contingencies) and to begin making payments, in accordance with the payment terms, on the settlement amount of $15.0 million.

On January 31, 2014, the Company entered into the Second Amendment to the Senior Credit Facilities, which, among other things (i) provides additional flexibility with respect to compliance with the maximum net leverage ratio for the fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2013 through and including December 31, 2014, (ii) provides additional flexibility under the indebtedness covenants to permit the Company to obtain up to $150.0 million of second-lien debt and issue up to $250.0 million of unsecured bonds, provided that 100% of the net proceeds are applied first to the Revolving Credit Facility, with no corresponding permanent commitment reduction, and then to the Term Loan B Facility, (iii) provides the requisite flexibility to sell non-core assets, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, and (iv) increased the applicable interest rates for the Term Loan B Facility and the Delayed Draw Term Loan Facility (collectively, the "Term Loan Facilities") to the Eurodollar rate plus 6.00% or the base rate plus 5.00%, until the occurrence of certain pricing decrease triggering events, as defined in the amendment. Upon the occurrence of a pricing decrease triggering event, the interest rates for the Senior Credit Facilities may revert to the Eurodollar rate plus 5.25% or the base rate plus 4.25%.

As discussed below, the net proceeds of approximately $194.5 million from the issuance of the 2021 Notes on February 11, 2014 were used to repay $59.3 million of the Revolving Credit Facility and $135.2 million of the Term Loan Facilities. In addition, approximately $54.2 million of the net proceeds from the sale of the Home Health Business (see Note 5 - Discontinued Operations) were used to repay $17.2 million of the Revolving Credit Facility and $37.0 million of the Term Loan Facilities. Once repaid, amounts under Term Loan Facilities may not be reborrowed. The Senior Credit Facilities are secured by substantially all of the Company's and its subsidiaries' assets.

The partial repayments of the Senior Credit Facilities as a result of the issuance of the 2021 Notes and from the sale of the Home Health Business were a pricing decrease triggering event that resulted in the interest rates reverting to the Eurodollar rate plus 5.25% or the base rate plus 4.25%. As a result of this rate decrease, the interest rate related to the Revolving Credit Facility is approximately 7.00% and 6.5% for the Term Loan Facilities. The interest rates may vary in the future depending on the Company's consolidated net leverage ratio.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on July 31, 2018 at which time all principal amounts outstanding are due and payable. The Term Loan Facilities each mature on July 31, 2020 at which time the remaining principal amount of approximately $222.8 million is due and payable.

Issuance of 2021 Notes

On February 11, 2014, the Company issued $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of 8.875% senior notes due 2021 (the "2021 Notes"). The 2021 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Company and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by all existing and future subsidiaries of the Company. The 2021 Notes were offered in the United States to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act pursuant to an Indenture (the “2021 Notes Indenture”), dated February 11, 2014, by and among the Company, the guarantors named therein and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee.

Interest on the 2021 Notes accrues at a fixed rate of 8.875% per annum and is payable semi-annually in cash in arrears on February 15 and August 15 of each year, commencing on August 15, 2014. The debt discount of $5.0 million at issuance is being amortized as interest expense through maturity which will result in the accretion over time of the outstanding debt balance to the principal amount. As of March 31, 2014, there are no quoted prices or active markets for the 2021 Notes. The 2021 Notes are the Company's senior unsecured obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness and senior in right of payment to all of its existing and future subordinated indebtedness.

The 2021 Notes are guaranteed on a full, joint and several basis by each of the Company's existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that is a borrower under any of the Company's credit facilities or that guarantees any of the Company's debt or that of any of its restricted subsidiaries, in each case incurred under the Company's credit facilities.

The Company may redeem some or all of the 2021 Notes prior to February 15, 2017 by paying a “make-whole” premium. The Company may redeem some or all of the 2021 Notes on or after February 15, 2017 at specified redemption prices. In addition, prior to February 15, 2017, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the 2021 Notes with the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at a price of 108.875% plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any. The Company is obligated to offer to repurchase the 2021 Notes at a price of 101% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, as a result of certain change of control events. These restrictions and prohibitions are subject to certain qualifications and exceptions.

The 2021 Notes Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, limit the Company's ability and the ability of certain of the Company's subsidiaries to (i) grant liens on its assets, (ii) make dividend payments, other distributions or other restricted payments, (iii) incur restrictions on the ability of the Company's restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends or make other payments, (iv) enter into sale and leaseback transactions, (v) merge, consolidate, transfer or dispose of substantially all of their assets, (vi) incur additional indebtedness, (vii) make investments, (viii) sell assets, including capital stock of subsidiaries, (ix) use the proceeds from sales of assets, including capital stock of restricted subsidiaries, and (x) enter into transactions with affiliates. In addition, the 2021 Notes Indenture requires, among other things, the Company to provide financial and current reports to holders of the 2021 Notes or file such reports electronically with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These covenants are subject to a number of exceptions, limitations and qualifications set forth in the 2021 Notes Indenture.

Pursuant to the terms of the Second Amendment to the Senior Credit Facilities, the Company used approximately $194.5 million of the net proceeds of the offering to repay $59.3 million of the Revolving Credit Facility and $135.2 million of the Term Loan Facilities.

In connection with the issuance of the 2021 Notes, the Company entered into a registration rights agreement on February 11, 2014 with certain guarantors of the 2021 Notes named therein and Jefferies LLC, on behalf of itself and the other initial purchasers named therein (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company has agreed to file an exchange offer registration statement to exchange the 2021 Notes for substantially identical notes registered under the Securities Act unless the exchange offer is not permitted by applicable law or the policy of the SEC. The Company has also agreed to file a shelf registration statement to cover resales of notes under certain circumstances. The Company has agreed to file the exchange offer registration statement with the SEC within 360 days of the issue date of the 2021 Notes and use commercially reasonable efforts to have the exchange offer registration statement declared effective within 450 days of the issue date and to complete the exchange offer with respect to the 2021 Notes within 30 days of effectiveness. In addition, the Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to file the shelf registration statement as promptly as practicable and to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such shelf registration statement to be declared effective by the SEC within 90 days of the event giving rise to such obligation. If the Company fails to satisfy its registration obligations under the Registration Rights Agreement, it will be required to pay additional interest to the holders of the 2021 Notes under certain circumstances.

Deferred Financing Costs

In connection with the issuance of the 2021 Notes, the Company incurred underwriting fees, agent fees, legal fees and other expenses of $1.2 million that are being amortized over the term of the 2021 Notes.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense consisted of the following for the three months ended March 31, 2014 and 2013 (in thousands):

Interest expense, net	$	10,499		$	6,478

The increase in interest expense during the three months ended March 31, 2014 as compared to the same period in 2013 results from higher debt levels partially offset by lower interest rates. The increase in debt primarily relates to the acquisition of the CarePoint Business.
