Subsequent to the end of Fiscal 2012, on February 15, 2013, BCFWC entered into the Second Amendment. The Second Amendment creates a restricted payments basket of $25 million and permits BCFWC to use the “available amount” to make restricted payments (which basket includes retained excess cash flow, in an amount not to exceed 50% of BCFWC’s consolidated net income (as defined in the existing senior notes) since the second quarter of Fiscal 2011), in each case so long as certain conditions are satisfied. In connection with this amendment, the Company incurred a $1.5 million amendment fee that will be capitalized and included in the line item “Other Assets” on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Additionally, the Company incurred $8.9 million of additional fees, inclusive of an $8.7 million fee payable to Bain Capital, for various consulting and advisory services. These fees will be included in the line item “Selling and Administrative Expenses” on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss).

On February 20, 2013, Burlington Holdings, LLC (Indirect Parent), the indirect parent company of Holdings, and Burlington Holdings Finance, Inc., the wholly-owned subsidiary of Indirect Parent (collectively the Issuers), completed the offering of $350 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2018 (2018 Notes) at an issue price of 98.00%. The 2018 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of the Issuers, and the Issuers are not obligors or guarantors under BCFWC’s existing senior secured credit facilities or indenture. Additionally, as none of the Issuers’ subsidiaries, are obligors or guarantors under the 2018 Notes, the debt is recorded on the Issuers’ financial statements only and is not included in the Company’s financial statements.

Interest is payable on the Senior Notes on each February 15 and August 15, commencing August 15, 2013. The first interest payment on the 2018 Notes will be payable in cash. For each interest period thereafter, the Issuers will be required to pay interest on the 2018 Notes entirely in cash, unless certain conditions are satisfied, in which case the Issuers will be entitled to pay, to the extent described in the indenture governing the 2018 Notes, interest on the 2018 Notes by increasing the principal amount of the 2018 Notes or by issuing new notes (such increase being referred to herein as PIK interest). Cash interest on the 2018 Notes will accrue at the rate of 9.00% per annum. PIK interest on the 2018 Notes will accrue at the rate of 9.75% per annum. The Company intends to pay Indirect Parent a semi annual dividend in order for Indirect Parent to make payment on the semi annual cash interest.

In February 2013, the Issuers used the net proceeds from the offering of the 2018 Notes to pay a special cash dividend of approximately $336 million, in the aggregate, to Indirect Parent’s sole member, Burlington Holdings, Inc., which in turn distributed the proceeds to its stockholders. BCFWC paid a dividend to the Issuers of $4.8 million in order to pay certain fees in connection with the issuance of the 2018 Notes, inclusive of a $3.5 million fee to Bain Capital for various consulting and advisory services.

On February 14, 2013, Parent, and its principal shareholders (Bain Capital Integral Investors, LLC, Bain Capital Fund IX, LLC, BCIP Associates-G and BCIP TCV, LLC) entered into a Termination Agreement, pursuant to which the Stockholders Agreement among each of them and the other stockholders of Parent, dated as of April 13, 2006 (Prior Stockholders Agreement) was terminated. On February 14, 2013, Burlington Holdings, Inc. and the investors and managers from time to time party thereto, entered into a Stockholders Agreement (New Stockholders Agreement). The terms of the New Stockholders Agreement are substantially similar to the terms of the Prior Stockholders Agreement.
