Financing Arrangements

Term Loans

During 2014, in order to finance its acquisitions of Hi-Tech Pharmacal Co Inc. and VersaPharm Inc., the Company entered into two term loan agreements (the “Term Loans”) with certain lenders and with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. The aggregate principal amount financed was $1,045.0 million. As of March 31, 2018, outstanding debt under the Term Loans was $831.9 million and the Company was in full compliance with all applicable covenants which included customary limitations on indebtedness, distributions, liens, acquisitions, investments, and other activities. The Term Loans are scheduled to mature in 2021.

During the three month period ended March 31, 2018, the Company amortized $1.3 million of the deferred financing cost related to the Term Loans, resulting in $15.2 million remaining balance of deferred financing costs at March 31, 2018. The Company will amortize this balance using the straight-line method over the life of the Term Loan Agreements.

Subsequent to November 13, 2015, interest accrues based at the Company’s election, on an adjusted prime/federal funds rate (“ABR Loan”) or an adjusted LIBOR (“Eurodollar Loan”) rate, plus a margin of 4.00% for ABR Loans, and 5.00% for Eurodollar Loans. As of the date of the filing of this Form 10-Q until the maturity of the Term Loans, the Company's spread will be based upon the Ratings Level applicable on such date as documented below. As of the period ended March 31, 2018, the Company was a Ratings Level I for the Existing Term Loan Facility.



Ratings Level	Index Ratings (Moody’s/S&P)	Eurodollar Spread	ABR Spread
Level I	B1/B+ or higher	4.25%	3.25%
Level II	B2/B	4.75%	3.75%
Level III	B3/B- or lower	5.50%	4.50%

For the three month periods ended March 31, 2018 and 2017, the Company recorded interest expense of $12.3 million and $10.9 million, respectively, in relation to the Term Loans.

JPMorgan Credit Facility

On April 17, 2014, the Akorn Loan Parties entered into a Credit Agreement (the “JPM Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan as administrative agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent for certain other lenders (at closing, Bank of America, N.A. and Wells Fargo Bank, N. A.) for a $150.0 million revolving credit facility (the “JPM Revolving Facility”).

As of March 31, 2018, the Company was in full compliance with all covenants applicable to the JPM Revolving Facility.

The Company may use any proceeds from borrowings under the JPM Revolving Facility for working capital needs and for the general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries. At March 31, 2018, there were no outstanding borrowings under the JPM Revolving Facility, and availability was reduced from $150.0 million to $135.0 million in accordance with ratio thresholds under the credit agreement.

The JPM Credit Agreement places customary limitations on indebtedness, distributions, liens, acquisitions, investments, and other activities of the Akorn Loan Parties in a manner designed to protect the collateral while providing flexibility for growth and the historic business activities of the Company and its subsidiaries.
