On
July 20, 2016,
the Debtors filed Bankruptcy Petitions in the Bankruptcy Court seeking relief under Chapter
11
of the Bankruptcy Code under the caption “
In re: CJ Holding Co., et al., Case
No.
16
-
33590
.” The filing of the Bankruptcy Petitions constituted an event of default with respect to the Original Credit Agreement. As a result, the Company’s pre-petition secured indebtedness under the Original Credit Agreement became immediately due and payable and any efforts to enforce such payment obligations were automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter
11
Proceeding. As of
December 31, 2016,
$1.3
billion of debt under the Original Credit Agreement was classified as liabilities subject to compromise.
 
Additional information regarding the Chapter
11
Proceeding is included in Note

- Chapter
11
Proceeding and Emergence.
 
Amended Credit Facility
 
On
January 6, 2017,
in connection with the emergence from bankruptcy, the Company entered into the New Credit Facility, and subsequently on
May 4, 2017,
entered into the Amended Credit Facility.
 
The Amended Credit Facility allows the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers (the "Borrowers"), to incur revolving loans in an aggregate amount up to the lesser of
$200.0
million and a borrowing base, which borrowing base is based upon the value of the Borrowers’ accounts receivable and inventory, subject to eligibility criteria and customary reserves which
may
be modified in the Agent’s permitted discretion. The Amended Credit Facility also provides for the issuance of letters of credit, which would further reduce borrowing capacity thereunder. The maturity date of the Amended Credit Facility is
May 4, 2022.
 
If at any time the amount of loans and other extensions of credit outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility exceed the borrowing base, the Borrowers
may
be required, among other things, to prepay outstanding loans immediately.
 
The Borrowers’ obligations under the Amended Credit Facility are secured by liens on a substantial portion of the Borrowers’ personal property, subject to certain exclusions and limitations. Upon the occurrence of certain events, additional collateral, including a portion of the Borrowers’ real properties,
may
also be required to be pledged. Each of the Borrowers is jointly and severally liable for the obligations of the other Borrowers under the Amended Credit Facility.
 
At the Borrowers’ election, interest on borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility will be determined by reference to either LIBOR plus an applicable margin of
2.0%
 or an “alternate base rate” plus an applicable margin of
1.0%.
Beginning after the fiscal month ending on or about
September 30, 2017,
these margins will be subject to a monthly step-up of
0.25%
in the event that average excess availability under the Amended Credit Facility is less than
37.5%
of the total commitment, and a monthly step-down of
0.25%
in the event that average excess availability under the Amended Credit Facility is equal to or greater than
62.5%
of the total commitment. Interest will be payable quarterly for loans bearing interest based on the alternative base rate and on the last day of the interest period applicable to LIBOR-based loans. The Borrowers will also be required to pay a fee on the unused portion of the Amended Credit Facility equal to (i)
0.75%
in the event that utilization is less than
25.0%
of the total commitment, (ii)
0.50%
in the event utilization is equal to or greater than
25%
of the total commitment but less than
50%
of the total commitment and (iii)
0.375%
in the event that utilization is equal to or greater than
50%
of the total commitment.
 
The Amended Credit Facility contains covenants that limit the Borrowers’ and their subsidiaries’ ability to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make loans or investments, make distributions, merge into or consolidate with other persons, make capital expenditures or engage in certain asset dispositions including a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.
 
The Amended Credit Facility also contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a monthly minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of
1.0:1.0
if, as of any month-end, liquidity is less than
$40.0
million.
 
The fixed charge coverage ratio is generally defined in the Amended Credit Facility as the ratio of (i) EBITDA minus certain capital expenditures and cash taxes paid to (ii) the sum of cash interest expenses, scheduled principal payments on borrowed money and certain distributions.
 
As of
June 30, 2017,
the Company was in compliance with all financial covenants.
 
DIP Facility
 
On
July 29, 2016,
the Predecessor entered into a
$100.0
million Superpriority Secured Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement (the “DIP Credit Agreement”) with the other Debtors, the DIP Lenders and Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as administrative agent.
 
The borrowers under the DIP Facility were the Predecessor and CJ Holding Co. All obligations under the DIP Facility were guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries that were debtors in the Bankruptcy cases. Borrowings under the DIP Credit Agreement were generally secured by superpriority priming liens on substantially all of the assets of the borrowers and guarantors.
 
Amounts outstanding under the DIP Facility bore interest based on, at the option of the borrower, LIBOR or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable margin equal to
9.0%
in the case of LIBOR loans and
8.0%
in the case of base rate loans. The alternative base rate was equal to the highest of (i) the published ‘prime rate’, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the DIP Credit Agreement) plus 
0.5%
and (iii) LIBOR plus
1.0%.
The DIP Facility also required that the Company pay various fees to the DIP Lenders, including a commitment fee equal to
5.0%
of the unused commitments thereunder. The DIP Facility was scheduled to mature on
March 31, 2017.
 
In accordance with the Restructuring Plan, on the Plan Effective Date, the Company repaid all amounts outstanding under the DIP Facility with the proceeds from the Rights Offering and the DIP Facility was canceled and discharged.
 
Predecessor Credit Agreements
 
On
March 
24,
2015,
in connection with the closing of the Nabors Merger, the Predecessor entered into the Original Credit Agreement. The Original Credit Agreement provided for senior secured credit facilities in an aggregate principal amount of
$1.66
billion, consisting of (i) a revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit Facility” or the “Revolver”) in the aggregate principal amount of
$600.0
million and (ii) a term loan B facility (“Term Loan B”) in the aggregate principal amount of
$1.06
billion. The Company simultaneously repaid all amounts outstanding and terminated Old C&J’s prior credit agreement;
no
penalties were due in connection with such repayment and termination. All obligations under the Original Credit Agreement were guaranteed by the Predecessor’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries.
 
On
September 29, 2015,
the Company obtained and the Predecessor entered into a waiver and amendments to the Original Credit Agreement, which, among other things, suspended certain financial covenants set forth in the Original Credit Agreement. The suspension of these financial covenants commenced with the fiscal quarter ending
September 30, 2015
and would have lasted through the fiscal quarter ending
June 30, 2017.
 
On
May 10, 2016,
the Company obtained a temporary limited waiver agreement from certain of the lenders pursuant to which, effective as of
March 31, 2016,
such lenders agreed to
not
consider a breach of the Minimum Cumulative Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement) covenant measured as of
March 31, 2016
an event of default through
May 31, 2016.
 
On
May 
31,
2016,
the Company obtained and the Predecessor entered into the Forbearance Agreement with certain of the lenders pursuant to which, among other things, such lenders agreed
not
to pursue default remedies against the Company with respect to its breach of the Minimum Cumulative Consolidated EBITDA Covenant or certain specified payment defaults.
 
On
June 
30,
2016,
this forbearance was extended through
July 17, 2016
pursuant to the Second Forbearance Agreement, and prior to the termination of the Second Forbearance Agreement, this forbearance period was once again extended through
July 20, 2016.
The Second Forbearance Agreement provided that the forbearance would terminate upon the occurrence of certain events, including the failure of the Predecessor to enter into the Restructuring Support Agreement on or prior to
July 
8,
2016.
On
July 8, 2016,
the Predecessor entered into the Restructuring Support Agreement with the Supporting Lenders. The Restructuring Support Agreement contemplated the implementation of a restructuring of the Company through a debt-to-equity conversion and Rights Offering, which transaction was effectuated through the Restructuring Plan.
 
On
July 20, 2016,
the Debtors filed Bankruptcy Petitions in the Bankruptcy Court seeking relief under Chapter
11.
Additional information, including definitions of capitalized defined terms, regarding the Chapter
11
Proceeding is included in Note
2
- Chapter
11
Proceeding and Emergence.
 
Revolving Credit Facility
 
The Revolver was scheduled to mature on
March 24, 2020 (
except that if any Five-Year Term Loans (as defined herein) had
not
been repaid prior to
September 24, 2019,
the Revolver was scheduled to mature on
September 24, 2019).
Borrowings under the Revolver were non-amortizing. Amounts outstanding under the Revolver bore interest based on, at the option of the borrower, LIBOR or an alternative base rate, plus an applicable margin determined pursuant to a pricing grid based on the ratio of consolidated total indebtedness of C&J and its subsidiaries to Consolidated EBITDA of C&J and its subsidiaries for the most recent
four
fiscal quarter period for which financial statements are available (the “Total Leverage Ratio”).
 
On
July 20, 2016,
the Debtors filed the Bankruptcy Petitions which constituted an event of default under the Original Credit Agreement and accelerated the Revolver and Term Loan B Facility indebtedness to become immediately due and payable. On the Plan Effective Date, pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement entered into on
July 8, 2016,
holders of the Revolver and Term Loan B Facility received their pro rata share of
100.0%
of the New Equity in the Successor, subject to dilution from the issuance of New Equity on account of the Management Incentive Plan, the Rights Offering, the Backstop Fee and the New Warrants as discussed further in Note
2
- Chapter
11
Proceeding and Emergence.
 
Term Loan B Facility
 
Borrowings under the Term Loan B were comprised of
two
tranches: a tranche consisting of
$575.0
million in aggregate principal amount of term loans maturing on
March 24, 2020 (
the “Five-Year Term Loans”) and a tranche consisting of a
$485.0
million in aggregate principal amount of term loans maturing on
March 24, 2022 (
the “Seven-Year Term Loans”). The Company was required to make quarterly amortization payments in an amount equal to
1.0%,
with the remaining balance payable on the applicable maturity date. As of
December 
31,
2016,
the Company had borrowings outstanding under the Five-Year Term Loans and the Seven-Year Term Loans of
$569.3
million and
$480.2
million, respectively.
 
Five-Year Term Loans outstanding under the Term Loan B bore interest based on, at the option of the Company, (i) LIBOR subject to a floor of
1.0%,
plus a margin of
5.5%,
or (ii) an alternative base rate, plus a margin of
4.5%.
Seven-Year Term Loans outstanding under the Term Loan B bore interest based on, at the option of the Company, (i) LIBOR subject to a floor of
1.0%,
plus a margin of
6.25%,
or (ii) an alternative base rate, plus a margin of
5.25%.
 
The alternative base rate was equal to the highest of (i) the administrative agent’s prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus
0.5%,
or (iii) LIBOR plus
1.0%.
 
On
July 20, 2016,
the Debtors filed the Bankruptcy Petitions which constituted an event of default under the Original Credit Agreement and accelerated the Term Loan B Facility indebtedness to become immediately due and payable; however, any efforts to enforce such payment obligations were automatically stayed as a result of the Chapter
11
Proceeding. On the Plan Effective Date, pursuant to the Restructuring Support Agreement entered into on
July 8, 2016,
holders of the Term Loan B Facility debt received their pro rata share of
100.0%
of the New Equity in the Successor, subject to dilution from the issuance of New Equity on account of the Management Incentive Plan, the Rights Offering, the Backstop Fee and the New Warrants as discussed further in Note
2
- Chapter
11
Proceeding and Emergence.
 
Interest Expense
 
As of
June 30, 2016,
based on the negotiations between the Company and the lenders, it became evident that the restructuring of the Company's capital structure would
not
include a restructuring of the Company's Revolving Credit Facility, the Five-Year Term Loans and the Seven-Year Term Loans, and these debt obligations, as demand obligations, would
not
be paid in the ordinary course of business over the term of these loans. As a result, during the
second
quarter of
2016,
the Company accelerated the amortization of the associated original issue discount and deferred financing costs, fully amortizing these amounts as of
June 30, 2016.
For the
three
and
six
months ended
June 30, 2017 (
Successor) and
2016
(Predecessor), interest expense consisted of the following (in thousands):
