August 2018 Debt Facilities

On August 7, 2018 (the “Closing Date”), the Company and certain of its subsidiaries amended its (i) Third Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “New Amended BoA Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto (the “BoA Facility Loan Parties”) and (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “FS/KKR Agent”) and the lenders party thereto (the “FS/KKR Facility Loan Parties”). The Company used a portion of the proceeds of the $335.0 million loans made to the Company under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement to prepay loans under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

The New Amended BoA Credit Agreement provides for several five-year senior secured credit facilities, consisting of (i) Tranche A Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Amended Tranche A Loans”), (ii) Tranche A‑1 Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $70.0 million (the “Amended Tranche A‑1 Loans” and, together with the Tranche A Loans, the “Amended BoA Term Loans”) and (iii) revolving credit commitments in the aggregate principal amount of $130.0 million (the “Amended Revolving Credit Commitments” and, the loans under the Revolving Credit Commitments, the “Amended Revolving Loans”). On the Closing Date, the total amount outstanding under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement was $335.0 million, including (i) $150.0 million of Amended Tranche A Loans, (ii) $70.0 million of Amended Tranche A‑1 Loans and (iii) $115.0 million of Amended Revolving Loans.

The loans under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to (i) with respect to the Amended Revolving Loans and the Amended Tranche A Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 3.50% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 2.50% per annum and (ii) with respect to the Amended Tranche A‑1 Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 7.00% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 6.00% per annum. The loans under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement provide for interest rate reductions if certain leverage ratios are achieved, with minimum interest rates equal to (i) with respect to the Amended Revolving Loans and the Amended Tranche A Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 3.00% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 2.00% per annum and (ii) with respect to the Amended Tranche A-1 Loans (a) the LIBOR rate plus 6.00% per annum or (b) the base rate plus 5.00% per annum.  The undrawn portions of the Revolving Credit Commitments are subject to a commitment fee of 0.375% per annum.

The Company may make voluntary prepayments of the loans outstanding under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement, subject to the payment of customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR-based borrowings and, in certain cases, to the prepayment premium set forth in the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company is mandated to make prepayments (without payment of a premium or penalty) under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement amounting to: (i) the loans outstanding under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement plus, (a) where intellectual property is disposed, 50.0% of the disposed intellectual property’s orderly liquidation value, and (b) where any other assets constituting collateral are disposed or upon the receipt of certain insurance proceeds, 100% of the net proceeds thereof, subject to certain reinvestment rights; and (ii) the Amended Tranche A-1 Loans to the extent that the outstanding principal amount thereof exceeds 15.0% of the orderly liquidation value of the registered trademarks owned by the BoA Facility Loan Parties. The Amended BoA Term Loans will continue to amortize in quarterly installments of $5.0 million.

The New Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the BoA Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries. Moreover, the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the BoA Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to (i) maintain a positive net income, (ii) satisfy a maximum loan to value ratio initially set at 50.0%  (applicable to the Amended Revolving Loans and Amended Tranche A Loans) decreasing over the term of the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement until reaching a final maximum loan to value ratio of 42.5% and (iii) satisfy a maximum consolidated first lien leverage ratio, initially set at 3.875:1:00, decreasing over the term of the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement until reaching a final maximum ratio of 2.875:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2022 and thereafter.

The New Amended BoA Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default, including a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or not waived, the Bank of America Agent, at the request of the lenders under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement, must take various actions, including, without limitation, the acceleration of all amounts due under the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement.

The Company may request an increase in (i) the Revolving Credit Facility and Tranche A Loans as would not cause the consolidated first lien leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such increase, to exceed 2.80:1.00 and (ii) the Tranche A-1 Loans, as would not cause the consolidated first lien leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such increase, to exceed (a) with respect to any increase, the proceeds of which will be used solely to finance an acquisition, 3.00:1.00 and (b) with respect to any other increase, 2.90:1.00, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement. At March 31, 2019, the Company is in compliance with the covenants included in the New Amended BoA Credit Agreement.

The New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement provides for a five and a half-year $314.0 million senior secured term loan facility. The Company may request one or more additional term loan facilities or the increase of term loan commitments under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement as would not have caused the consolidated total leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such addition and increase, to exceed 6.00:1.00, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

The loans under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate equal to either (i) the LIBOR rate plus 8.75% per annum or (ii) the base rate plus 7.75% per annum.

The Company may make voluntary prepayments of the loans outstanding under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement, subject to the payment of customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR-based borrowings and, in certain cases, to the prepayment premium set forth in the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement. The Company is mandated to make prepayments (without payment of a premium or penalty) of loans outstanding under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement amounting to: (i) where intellectual property was disposed, 50.0% of the disposed intellectual property’s orderly liquidation value, (ii) where any other asset constituting collateral is disposed or upon the receipt of certain insurance proceeds, 100% of the net proceeds thereof, subject to certain reinvestment rights, and (iii) any consolidated excess cash flow, in an amount equal to (a) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was at least 4.00:1.00, 75% thereof, (b) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was less than 4.00:1.00 but at least 3.00:1.00, 50% thereof and (c) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was less than 3.00:1.00, 0% thereof. The loans under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement will continue to amortize in quarterly installments of approximately $2.1 million.

The New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the FS/KKR Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries. Moreover, the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the FS/KKR Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to satisfy (i) a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, initially set at 7.25:1.00, decreasing over the term of the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement until reaching a final maximum ratio of 6.25:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2022 and thereafter and (ii) a maximum consolidated first lien leverage ratio, initially set at 3.875:1.00, decreasing over the term of the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement until reaching a final maximum ratio of 2.875:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2022 and thereafter.  At March 31, 2019, the Company is in compliance with the covenants included in the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

The New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement contains certain customary events of default, including a change of control. If an event of default occurs and is not cured within any applicable grace period or is not waived, the FS/KKR Agent, at the request of the lenders under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement, is required to take various actions, including, without limitation, the acceleration of amounts due thereunder.

The Company may request one or more additional term loan facilities or the increase of term loan commitments under the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement as would not have caused the consolidated total leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such addition and increase, to exceed 6.00:1.00, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the New Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

July 2016 Debt Facilities

On July 1, 2016, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into (i) the Third Amended and Restated First Lien Credit Agreement (the “Amended BoA Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto and (ii) the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement”) with Wilmington Trust, National Association, as administrative agent and collateral agent and the lenders party thereto.  Such agreements amended, restated and replaced the Company’s previous debt facilities.  The Company used a portion of the proceeds of the $287.5 million loans made to the Company under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement and the $415.0 million loans made to the Company under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement to fund the payment of the purchase price with respect to the acquisition of the Gaiam Brand Holdco, LLC and costs and expenses incurred in connection with such acquisition and related transactions.

The Amended BoA Credit Agreement provided for several five-year credit facilities, consisting of (i) Tranche A Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $133.0 million (the “Tranche A Loans”), (ii) Tranche A-1 Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $44.5 million (the “Tranche A-1 Loans” and, together with the Tranche A Loans, the “BoA Term Loans”) and (iii) revolving credit commitments in the aggregate principal amount of $110.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Facility” and, the loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Revolving Loans”).  On July 1, 2016, the total amount outstanding under the Amended BoA Credit Agreement was $258.0 million, including (i) $133.0 million of Tranche A Loans, (ii) $44.5 million of Tranche A-1 Loans and (iii) $80.5 million of borrowing under the Revolving Loans.

The Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement provided for a six-year $415.0 million senior secured term loan facility.  The Company could have requested one or more additional term loan facilities or the increase of term loan commitments under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement as would not have caused the consolidated total leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such addition and increase, to have exceeded 6.00:1.00, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

The Company could have made voluntary prepayments of the loans outstanding under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement, subject to the payment of customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR-based borrowings and, in certain cases, to the prepayment premium set forth in the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement.  The Company was mandated to make prepayments (without payment of a premium or penalty) of loans outstanding under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement amounting to: (i) where intellectual property was disposed, 50.0% of the disposed intellectual property’s orderly liquidation value, (ii) where any other asset constituting collateral is disposed or upon the receipt of certain insurance proceeds, 100% of the net proceeds thereof, subject to certain reinvestment rights, and (iii) any consolidated excess cash flow, in an amount equal to (a) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was at least 4.00:1.00, 75% thereof, (b) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was less than 4.00:1.00 but at least 3.00:1.00, 50% thereof and (c) in the event the consolidated total leverage ratio was less than 3.00:1.00, 0% thereof.  On March 31, 2017, the loans under the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement commenced amortization in quarterly installments, equal to 2.00% per annum of the original aggregate principal amount thereof.

The Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement contained customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants applicable to the FS/KKR Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries.  Moreover, the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement contained financial covenants that required the FS/KKR Facility Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to satisfy (i) a maximum consolidated total leverage ratio, initially set at 7.25:1.00, decreasing over the term of the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement until reaching the final maximum ratio of 6.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018 and thereafter and (ii) a maximum consolidated first lien leverage ratio, initially set at 2.80:1.00, decreasing over the term of the Amended FS/KKR Credit Agreement until reaching the final maximum ratio of 2.50:1.00 for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2018 and thereafter.

The Company could have requested one or more additional term loan facilities or the increase of term loan commitments under the FS/KKR Credit Agreement as would not have caused the consolidated total leverage ratio, determined on a pro forma basis after giving effect to any such addition and increase, to exceed 6.00:1.00, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions in the FS/KKR Credit Agreement.

Interest Rate Swaps

On December 10, 2018, the Company entered into interest rate swap agreements related to its term loans (the “2018 Swap Agreements”) with certain financial institutions.  The Company recorded its interest rate swaps in accrued expense and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value using Level 2 inputs.  The 2018 Swap Agreements have a $300 million notional value, and $150 million matures on December 31, 2021 and $150 million matures on January 4, 2022.

The Company’s risk management objective and strategy with respect to the 2018 Swap Agreements is to reduce its exposure to variability in cash flows on a portion of the Company’s floating-rate debt.  The 2018 Swap Agreements protect the Company from changes in its cash flows attributable to changes in a contractually specified interest rate on an amount of borrowing equal to the then outstanding swap notional.  The Company will periodically assess the effectiveness of the hedge (both prospective and retrospective) by performing a single regression analysis that was prepared at the inception of the hedging relationship.  To the extent the hedging relationship is highly effective, the gain or loss on the swap will be recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and reclassified into interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transactions affect earnings.
