Current Year Debt Transactions
(a) 2019 Term Loan Facility
Principal and Maturity: In August 2019, Products Corporation entered into a senior secured term loan facility among certain affiliated funds, investment vehicles or accounts managed or advised by Ares Management LLC, as lender, in an initial aggregate principal amount of $200 million (the “2019 Term Loan Facility” and such agreement being the “2019 Term Loan Agreement”), and Wilmington Trust, National Association (“Wilmington Trust”), as administrative and collateral agent. The approximate $188 million of net proceeds from the 2019 Term Loan Facility (after taking into account approximately $12 million of related fees and expenses) were used for general corporate purposes. The 2019 Term Loan Facility will mature on the earliest of: (x) August 6, 2023; (y) the 180th day prior to the stated maturity of Products Corporation’s existing 2016 Term Loan Facility, if any loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility remain outstanding and have not been replaced or refinanced by such date; and (z) the date of any springing maturity of the 2016 Term Loan Facility (i.e., the 91st day prior to the maturity of the 5.75% Senior Notes due February 15, 2021 if any 5.75% Senior Notes remain outstanding by such date and certain liquidity thresholds are not met).
Guarantees and Security: Products Corporation and its restricted subsidiaries under the 2019 Term Loan Facility (collectively, the “Restricted Group”) are subject to the covenants under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement. The 2019 Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by each existing and future direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiary of Products Corporation (subject to various exceptions), as well as by Revlon, on a limited recourse basis, and Elizabeth Arden (U.K.) Ltd., Revlon Canada Inc. and Elizabeth Arden (Canada) Limited. The obligations of Revlon, Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors under the 2019 Term Loan Facility are secured by pledges of the equity of Products Corporation and the equity of the Restricted Group held by Products Corporation and each subsidiary guarantor (subject to customary exceptions, including equity of first-tier foreign subsidiaries in excess of 66% of the voting equity interests of such entity) and by substantially all tangible and intangible personal and real property of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors (subject to customary exclusions). The 2019 Term Loan Facility and the existing 2016 Term Loan Facility share the same guarantors and collateral, except that the 2019 Term Loan Facility is also secured by a first-priority lien on certain intellectual property of the American Crew business (the “Additional Collateral”) and is guaranteed by the entities established to hold such Additional Collateral. Pursuant to a first lien pari passu intercreditor agreement, dated August 6, 2019, among Revlon, Products Corporation, the subsidiary guarantors, Wilmington Trust and Citibank, N.A. (acting as administrative agent and collateral agent for the 2016 Term Loan Facility), the liens on the shared collateral securing the 2019 Term Loan Facility rank pari passu in priority with the liens on the shared collateral securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility.
License Agreement: In connection with the pledge of such Additional Collateral, Products Corporation entered into intercompany arrangements pursuant to which the Additional Collateral was contributed to a newly-formed subsidiary, Beautyge I, which then further contributed the Additional Collateral to its new wholly-owned subsidiary, Beautyge II, LLC. Products Corporation entered into a license and royalty arrangement on arm’s length terms with Beautyge II, LLC to provide for the Company’s continued use of the Additional Collateral during the term of the 2019 Term Loan Facility.
Interest and Fees: Interest accrues on the 2019 Term Loan Facility at a rate per annum of one-month adjusted LIBOR (which has a floor of 0%) plus a margin of 9.50%. Products Corporation is also obligated to pay customary fees and expenses in connection with the 2019 Term Loan Facility. 
Affirmative and Negative Covenants: The 2019 Term Loan Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the Restricted Group’s ability to: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) incur liens; (iii) sell, transfer or dispose of assets; (iv) make investments; (v) make dividends and distributions on, or repurchases of, equity; (vi) make prepayments of contractually subordinated or junior lien debt; (vii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates; (viii) enter into sale-leaseback transactions; (ix) change their lines of business; (x) restrict dividends from their subsidiaries or restrict liens; (xi) change their fiscal year; and (xii) modify the terms of certain debt. The 2019 Term Loan Agreement also contains additional covenants: (i) restricting the activities of the entities established to hold the Additional Collateral; (ii) limiting the incurrence of additional secured debt by the Restricted Group to an aggregate principal amount of $50 million (excluding the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility and any refinancing of the 5.75% Senior Notes due 2021); (iii) restricting the transfer by the Restricted Group of material intellectual property to non-guarantor restricted subsidiaries or other affiliates; and (iv) limiting additional investments by Products Corporation and its subsidiary guarantors in any non-guarantor subsidiary to an outstanding amount of $50 million plus $10 million for ordinary course investments consistent with past practice. These negative covenants are subject to various exceptions, including an “available amount basket” based on 50% of Products Corporation’s cumulative consolidated net income from October 1, 2016, subject to Products Corporation’s compliance with a 5.0 to 1.0 ratio of Products Corporation’s net debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2019 Term Loan Agreement), except such compliance is not required when such baskets are used to make investments.
Financial Covenants: The 2019 Term Loan Agreement contains financial covenants. First, Products Corporation cannot permit at any time both (x) the aggregate principal amount of secured and structurally senior debt to exceed $2.5 billion and (y) the ratio of Products Corporation's net secured and structurally senior debt to Consolidated EBITDA to be greater than 5.0 to 1.0, subject to a one-time equity cure right. Second, Products Corporation’s Consolidated EBITDA cannot be less than $250 million for any test period ending on or after March 31, 2021.
Prepayments: The 2019 Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments from: (i) the net proceeds from the issuance by Products Corporation or any of its restricted subsidiaries of certain additional debt; (ii) commencing with the excess cash flow calculation with respect to fiscal year ending December 31, 2020, 50% of excess cash flow, with step-downs to 25% and 0% upon achievement of certain first lien leverage ratios and reduced by voluntary prepayments of the 2019 Term Loan Facility, the 2016 Term Loan Facility and revolving loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility (to the extent commitments thereunder are permanently reduced); and (iii) asset sale proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property that have not been reinvested to the extent in excess of certain minimum amounts (subject to an aggregate reinvestment cap of $50 million). Products Corporation may voluntarily prepay the 2019 Term Loan Facility at any time. All voluntary prepayments, certain mandatory prepayments and repayments upon acceleration after an event of default of the 2019 Term Loan Facility must be accompanied by a fee in an amount equal to: (i) prior to January 1, 2021, a make-whole amount with respect to interest payments through December 31, 2020 plus 10% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid, repaid or required to be repaid; (ii) on and after January 1, 2021, but prior to January 1, 2022, 10% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid, repaid or required to be repaid; (iii) on and after January 1, 2022, but prior to January 1, 2023, 7.5% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid, repaid or required to be repaid; or (iv) thereafter, 5% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid, repaid or required to be repaid. A 5% exit fee is also payable upon the final scheduled maturity of the 2019 Term Loan Facility or if the loans thereunder are accelerated upon an event of default. The 2019 Term Loan Agreement also contains certain customary representations, warranties and events of default.
Events of Default: The 2019 Term Loan Agreement includes customary events of default, including a cross default provision making it an event of default under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement if there is an event of default under Products Corporation’s existing 2016 Credit Agreements, the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement, the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement or the Senior Notes Indentures. The lenders under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement may declare all outstanding loans under the 2019 Term Loan Agreement to be due and payable immediately upon an event of default. Under such circumstances, the lenders under the 2016 Credit Agreements, the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement and the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement may also declare all outstanding loans under such facilities to be due and payable immediately as a result of similar cross default provisions, and upon non-payment of any accelerated principal amount, the trustees or noteholders for the 5.75% Senior Notes and 6.25% Senior Notes may declare all outstanding notes to be due and payable immediately as a result of similar cross-acceleration provisions, subject to certain exceptions and limitations described in the relevant instruments.
Fees and expenses incurred in connection with consummating the 2019 Term Loan Agreement of approximately $14 million were capitalized and are being amortized to interest expense over the term of the 2019 Term Loan Agreement using the effective interest method. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2019 Term Loan Facility Agreement at December 31, 2019 was $200 million.
(b) Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement
In June 2019, Products Corporation entered into a 2019 Senior Unsecured Line of Credit Agreement, providing Products Corporation with a $30 million senior unsecured line of credit from MacAndrews & Forbes Group, LLC, a subsidiary of Revlon’s majority stockholder, which facility allows Products Corporation to request loans thereunder and to use the proceeds of such loans for working capital and other general corporate purposes until the facility matures. In November 2019, Products Corporation and MacAndrews & Forbes Group, LLC entered into the Amended and Restated 2019 Senior Unsecured Line of Credit Agreement (the “Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement”) to extend the maturity of such facility by 1-year, expiring December 31, 2020 (the "Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility"). As of December 31, 2019 and as of the November 7, 2019 extension date, there were no borrowings outstanding or repayments under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility.
Any loans outstanding under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility shall bear interest at an annual rate of 8%, which is payable quarterly in arrears in cash. Products Corporation may, at its option, prepay any borrowings under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility, in whole or in part (together with accrued and unpaid interest), at any time prior to maturity, without premium or penalty. Products Corporation is required to repay any outstanding loans under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility, together with accrued interest thereon, if for any reason Products Corporation or any of its subsidiaries has available unrestricted cash that Products Corporation determines, in its reasonable judgment, is not required to run their operations in the ordinary course of business, provided that such repayment would not result in material adverse tax consequences.
The Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement includes customary events of default, including a cross default provision making it an event of default under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement if there exists and continues an event default under Products Corporation’s 2016 Credit Agreements, the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement, the 2019 Term Loan Agreement or the Senior Notes Indentures. If any such event of default occurs, MacAndrews & Forbes Group, LLC may declare all outstanding loans under the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility to be due and payable immediately.
(c) March 2019 Amendment to the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility
In March 2019, Products Corporation, Revlon and certain of their subsidiaries entered into Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement (as amended by Amendment No. 2, the “Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement”) in respect of the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility (as in effect after Amendment No. 2, the “Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility”). Pursuant to the terms of Amendment No. 2, the maturity date applicable to the $41.5 million senior secured first in, last out Tranche B of the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility was extended from April 17, 2019 to April 17, 2020. The 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement provided that the “Liquidity Amount” (defined in the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement as the sum of each borrowing base less the sum of (x) the aggregate outstanding extensions of credit under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, and (y) any availability reserve in effect on such date) may exceed the aggregate commitments under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility by up to 5%. Amendment No. 2 limits the Liquidity Amount to no more than the aggregate commitments under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. Under the 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement, a “Liquidity Event Period” generally occurred if Products Corporation’s Liquidity Amount fell below the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. Amendment No. 2 changed these thresholds to $50 million and 15%, respectively, only for purposes of triggering certain notification obligations of Products Corporation, increased borrowing base reporting frequency and the ability of the administrative agent to apply amounts collected in controlled accounts for the repayment of loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. After entering into Amendment No. 2, in March 2019 Products Corporation’s availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility was $37.3 million, which was less than the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, which at such date equated to $41.3 million. Accordingly, effective beginning in March 2019 Products Corporation is required to maintain a FCCR of a minimum of 1.0 to 1.0 (which it currently satisfies), the administrative agent may apply amounts collected in controlled accounts for the repayment of loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, which the administrative agent began applying in March 2019, and Products Corporation is required to provide the administrative agent with weekly borrowing base certificates. Products Corporation will be required to: (i) maintain such 1.0 to 1.0 minimum FCCR until such time that availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility equals or exceeds the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under such facility for at least 20 consecutive business days; and (ii) Products Corporation will continue to provide the administrative agent with weekly borrowing base certificates and the administrative agent may continue to apply amounts collected in controlled accounts as set forth above in each case until such time that availability under such facility is equal or exceeds the greater of $50 million and 15% of the maximum availability under such facility for at least 20 consecutive business days. Amendment No. 2 also adjusts, among other things, the “payment conditions” required to make unlimited restricted payments.

(d) April 2018 Amendment to Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility
In April 2018, Products Corporation amended the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility Agreement, as detailed below, to, among other things, add a new $41.5 million senior secured first in, last out "Tranche B," while the original $400 million tranche under such facility became a senior secured last in, first out "Tranche A" ("Amendment No.1" and the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility as in effect after Amendment No. 1, the "2016 Revolving Credit Facility"). Tranche A matures on the earlier of: (x) September 7, 2021; and (y) the 91st day prior to the maturity of Products Corporation’s 5.75% Senior Notes, if, on that date (and solely for so long as), (i) any of Products Corporation’s 5.75% Senior Notes remain outstanding and (ii) Products Corporation’s available liquidity does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding 5.75% Senior Notes by at least $200 million. Tranche B was initially scheduled to mature on April 17, 2019, a date that was later extended to April 17, 2020 pursuant to Amendment No. 2. Total borrowings at face amount under Tranche A and Tranche B under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2019 were $230.9 million (excluding $11.4 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit) and $41.5 million, respectively (the 2016 Term Loan Facility and the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility are collectively referred to as the "2016 Senior Credit Facilities" and the applicable agreements, as amended, being the “2016 Credit Agreements”).
Amendment No. 1 provided for the availability and repayment terms of each Tranche, as well as terms governing the payment priorities between the Tranches. Other amendments to the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility under Amendment No. 1 included: (i) a $15 million increase to the cap on amounts eligible for inclusion in the borrowing base relating to certain assets located in jurisdictions other than the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, and the U.K.; (ii) a reduction to the amount of additional debt generally permitted to be incurred; (iii) a reduction in the amount of incremental debt under 2016 Term Loan Agreement permitted to be incurred pursuant to the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement; (iv) the removal of temporary increases to the borrowing base between August 15th and October 31st of each year; (v) an increase to threshold conditions in respect of the ability to make certain dividends and distributions on equity during the term of the Tranche B; and (vi) an amendment to the calculation of the financial covenant.
During 2018, the Company incurred approximately $4.0 million of fees and expenses in connection with consummating Amendment No. 1, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the remaining term of Amendment No. 1 using the effective interest method. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under Tranche A and Tranche B of the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility at December 31, 2019 was $230.9 million and $41.5 million, respectively.
(e) 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Loan Credit Agreement
In July 2018, Revlon Holdings B.V. (the "Dutch Borrower"), a wholly owned indirect foreign subsidiary of Products Corporation, Revlon Finance LLC, a wholly owned direct subsidiary of the Dutch Borrower (the "U.S. Co-Borrower" and, together with the Dutch Borrower, the "Borrowers"), the other loan parties, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., acting as administrative agent and collateral agent (the "Agent"), entered into an Asset-Based Term Loan Credit Agreement (the "2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility" and the "2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement," respectively) and related guarantee and security agreements.
Principal and Maturity: The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility provides for a euro-denominated senior secured asset-based term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of €77 million, the full amount of which was funded on the closing of the facility in July 2018. The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility has an uncommitted incremental facility pursuant to which it may be increased from time to time by up to €43 million, subject to certain conditions and the agreement of the lenders providing such increase. The proceeds of the loans under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility were used for working capital and other general corporate purposes. The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility matures on July 9, 2021.
The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement requires the maintenance of a borrowing base supporting the borrowing thereunder, to be evidenced with the delivery of monthly borrowing base certificates customary for facilities of this type, with more frequent reporting required upon the triggering of certain events. The borrowing base calculation under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility is based on the sum of: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable; and (ii) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory, in each case with respect to certain of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries organized in Australia, Bermuda, Germany, Italy, Spain and Switzerland (the "Borrowing Base Guarantors" and, together with the Borrowers, the "Loan Parties"). The borrowing bases in each jurisdiction are subject to certain customary availability reserves set by the Agent.
Guarantees and Security: The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility is guaranteed by the Borrowing Base Guarantors, as well as by the direct parent entities of each Borrowing Base Guarantor (not including Revlon or Products Corporation) on a limited recourse basis (the "Parent Guarantors"). The obligations of the Loan Parties and the Parent Guarantors under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility are secured by first-ranking pledges of the equity of each Loan Party, the inventory and accounts receivable of the Borrowing Base Guarantors, the material bank accounts of each Loan Party, the material intercompany indebtedness owing to any Loan Party (including any intercompany loans made with the proceeds of the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility) and certain other material assets of the Borrowing Base Guarantors. The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility includes a cash dominion feature customary for transactions of this type.
Interest and Fees: Interest is payable on each interest payment date as set forth in the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement, and in any event at least quarterly, and accrues on borrowings under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility at a rate per annum equal to the EURIBOR rate, with a floor of 0.50%, plus an applicable margin equal to 6.50%. The Borrowers are obligated to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility, including a fee payable to Citibank, N.A. for its services as Agent. Loans under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility may be prepaid without premium or penalty.
Affirmative and Negative Covenants: The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the Loan Parties’ ability to, subject to various exceptions and qualifications: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) incur liens; (iii) sell, transfer or dispose of assets; (iv) make investments; (v) make dividends and distributions on, or repurchases of, equity; (vi) make prepayments of contractually subordinated or junior lien debt; (vii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates, including amending certain material intercompany agreements or trade terms; (viii) enter into sale-leaseback transactions; (ix) change their lines of business; (x) restrict dividends from their subsidiaries or restrict liens; (xi) change their fiscal year; and (xii) modify the terms of certain debt. The Parent Guarantors are subject to certain customary holding company covenants. The ability of the Loan Parties to make certain intercompany asset sales, investments, restricted payments and prepayments of intercompany debt is contingent on certain "cash movement conditions" or "payment conditions" being met, which among other things, require a certain level of liquidity for the applicable Loan Party to effect such type of transactions. The 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement also contains certain customary representations, warranties and events of default.
Prepayments: The Borrowers must prepay loans under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility to the extent that outstanding loans exceed the borrowing base. In lieu of a mandatory prepayment, the Loan Parties may deposit cash in an amount not to exceed 10% of the borrowing base into a designated U.S. bank account with the Agent that is subject to a control agreement (such cash, the "Qualified Cash"). If any such over-advance has not been cured within 60 days, the Qualified Cash may be applied, at the Agent’s option, to prepay the loans under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility. To the extent certain levels of availability are obtained during a certain period of time, the Borrowers can withdraw the Qualified Cash from such bank account. In addition, the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments from the net proceeds from the incurrence by the Loan Parties of debt not permitted thereunder.
During 2018, the Company incurred approximately $5.7 million of fees and expenses in connection with consummating the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement, which were capitalized and are being amortized over the remaining term of the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility using the effective interest method. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement at December 31, 2019 was $86.3 million.
(f) 2016 Senior Credit Facilities
In connection with and substantially concurrently with the closing of the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition, Products Corporation entered into: (i) the 7-year $1.8 billion 2016 Term Loan Facility (the "2016 Term Loan Facility" and such agreement being the "2016 Term Loan Agreement"); and (ii) the 5-year $400 million 2016 Revolving Credit Facility (the "Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility" and, as amended, together with the 2016 Term Loan Facility, the “2016 Senior Credit Facilities” and such agreement being the "Original 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement"). Products Corporation also completed the issuance of $450 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.25% Senior Notes due August 1, 2024 (the "6.25% Senior Notes"). The proceeds of Products Corporation's issuance of the 6.25% Senior Notes and the 2016 Term Loan Facility, together with approximately $35 million of borrowings under the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Facility and approximately $126.7 million of cash on hand, were used: (A) to fund the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition, including: (i) repurchasing the entire $350 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the then-existing Elizabeth Arden Senior Notes (the "Elizabeth Arden Senior Notes"); (ii) repaying the entire $142 million aggregate principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date under Elizabeth Arden’s $300 million revolving credit facility (which facility was terminated upon such repayment); (iii) repaying the entire $25 million aggregate principal amount of borrowings outstanding as of the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date under Elizabeth Arden's second lien credit facility (which facility was terminated upon such repayment); and (iv) retiring the entire $55 million liquidation preference of all 50,000 shares of Elizabeth Arden's then-issued and outstanding preferred stock (which amount included a $5 million change of control premium); and (B) to completely refinance and repay all of the $651.4 million in aggregate principal balance outstanding under Products Corporation’s then-existing 2011 Term Loan (the "2011 Term Loan") and all of the $658.6 million in aggregate principal balance outstanding under Products Corporation’s Old Acquisition Term Loan (each of which facilities were terminated upon such repayment) (together with the 2011 Term Loan, the "Old Term Loan Agreement" and the "Old Term Loan Facility," respectively). The Company did not incur any material early termination penalties in connection with repaying the Old Term Loan Facility or the Elizabeth Arden indebtedness and preferred stock.
Following is an updated description of Products Corporation's 2016 Senior Credit Facilities, after giving effect to Amendment No. 2 to the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility:
2016 Term Loan Facility
Principal and Maturity: On the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date, Products Corporation entered into the 2016 Term Loan Agreement, for which Citibank, N.A. acts as administrative and collateral agent and which has an initial aggregate principal amount of $1.8 billion and matures on the earlier of: (x) September 7, 2023; and (y) the 91st day prior to the maturity of Products Corporation’s 5.75% Senior Notes due February 15, 2021 if, on that date (and solely for so long as), (i) any of Products Corporation's 5.75% Senior Notes remain outstanding and (ii) Products Corporation’s available liquidity does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of its then outstanding 5.75% Senior Notes by at least $200 million. The loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility were borrowed at an original issue discount of 0.5% to their principal amount. The 2016 Term Loan Facility may be increased by an amount equal to the sum of (x) the greater of $450 million and 90% of Products Corporation’s pro forma consolidated EBITDA, plus (y) an unlimited amount to the extent that (1) the first lien leverage ratio (defined as the ratio of Products Corporation’s net senior secured funded debt that is not junior or subordinated to the liens of the Senior Facilities to EBITDA) is less than or equal to 3.5 to 1.0 (for debt secured pari passu with the 2016 Term Loan Facility) or (2) the secured leverage ratio (defined as the ratio of Products Corporation’s net senior secured funded debt to EBITDA) is less than or equal to 4.25 to 1.0 (for junior lien or unsecured debt), plus (z) up to an additional $400 million if the 2016 Revolving Credit Facility has been repaid and terminated. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Amended 2016 Term Loan Facility at December 31, 2019 was $1,741.5 million.
Guarantees and Security: Products Corporation and the restricted subsidiaries under the 2016 Term Loan Facility, which include Products Corporation’s subsidiaries, including Elizabeth Arden and its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Restricted Group"), are subject to the covenants under the 2016 Term Loan Agreement. The 2016 Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by each of Products Corporation's existing and future direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (subject to various exceptions), certain foreign subsidiaries, as well as by Revlon, on a limited recourse basis. The obligations of Revlon, Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors under the 2016 Term Loan Facility are secured by pledges of the equity of Products Corporation held by Revlon and the equity of the Restricted Group held by Products Corporation and each subsidiary guarantor (subject to certain exceptions, including equity of first-tier foreign subsidiaries in excess of 65% of the voting equity interests of such entity) and by substantially all tangible and intangible personal and real property of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain exclusions). The obligors and guarantors under the 2016 Term Loan Facility and the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility are identical. The liens securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility on the accounts, inventory, equipment, chattel paper, documents, instruments, deposit accounts, real estate and investment property and general intangibles (other than intellectual property) related thereto (the "Revolving Facility Collateral") rank second in priority to the liens thereon securing the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. The liens securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility on all other property, including capital stock, intellectual property and certain other intangible property (the "Term Loan Collateral"), rank first in priority to the liens thereon securing the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, while the liens thereon securing the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility rank second in priority to the liens thereon securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility.
Interest and Fees: Interest accrues on term loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility at a rate per annum of adjusted LIBOR (which has a floor of 0.75%) plus a margin of 3.5% or an alternate base rate plus a margin of 2.5%, at Products Corporation’s option, and is payable quarterly, at a minimum. Products Corporation is obligated to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the 2016 Term Loan Facility.
Affirmative and Negative Covenants: The 2016 Term Loan Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, limit the Restricted Group’s ability to: (i) incur additional debt; (ii) incur liens; (iii) sell, transfer or dispose of assets; (iv) make investments; (v) make dividends and distributions on, or repurchases of, equity; (vi) make prepayments of contractually subordinated or junior lien debt; (vii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates; (viii) enter into sale-leaseback transactions; (ix) change their lines of business; (x) restrict dividends from their subsidiaries or restrict liens; (xi) change their fiscal year; and (xii) modify the terms of certain debt. The negative covenants are subject to various exceptions, including an "available amount basket" based on 50% of Products Corporation’s cumulative consolidated net income, plus a "starter" basket of $200 million, subject to Products Corporation’s compliance with a 5.0 to 1.0 ratio of Products Corporation’s net debt to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the 2016 Term Loan Agreement), except such compliance is not required when such baskets are used to make investments. While the 2016 Term Loan Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and events of default, it does not contain any financial maintenance covenants.
Prepayments: The 2016 Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments from: (i) the net proceeds from the issuance by Products Corporation or any of its restricted subsidiaries of certain additional debt; (ii) 50% of excess cash flow for fiscal years ending December 31st, with step-downs to 25% and 0% upon achievement of certain first lien leverage ratios and reduced by voluntary prepayments of loans under the 2016 Term Loan Facility and revolving loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility to the extent commitments thereunder are permanently reduced; and (iii) asset sale proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property that have not been reinvested to the extent in excess of certain minimum amounts. Products Corporation may voluntarily prepay the 2016 Term Loan Facility without premium or penalty. No excess cash flow payments were due and payable with respect to 2019.
Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility
Principal and Maturity: On the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date, Products Corporation entered into the Original 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement, as subsequently amended pursuant to Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, and for which Citibank, N.A. acts as administrative agent and collateral agent. The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility has an aggregate maximum availability of $441.5 million (with a $100 million sublimit for letters of credit and up to $70 million available for swing line loans), which availability is subject to the amount of the borrowing base. The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility may be increased by the greater of (x) $33.5 million and (y) the excess of the borrowing base over the amounts of then-effective commitments. The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility permits certain non-U.S. subsidiaries to borrow in local currencies. The borrowing base calculation in respect of the Tranche A under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility is based on the sum of: (i) 85% of eligible accounts receivable; (ii) the lesser of 85% of the net orderly liquidation value and a percentage of the value specified in respect of different types of eligible inventory; (iii) the lesser of (A) the sum of (x) 75% of the net orderly liquidation value in respect of eligible equipment and (y) 75% of the mortgage value of eligible real property and (B) $40 million; and (iv) qualified restricted cash (capped at $75 million), which are collectively subject to certain availability reserves set by the administrative agent. The borrowing base calculation in respect of the Tranche B under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility is based on the sum of: (i) 10% of eligible accounts receivable and (ii) the lesser of 10% of the net orderly liquidation value and a percentage of the value specified in respect of different types of eligible inventory, which are collectively subject to certain availability reserves set by the administrative agent. Tranche A under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility matures on the earlier of: (x) September 7, 2021; and (y) the 91st day prior to the maturity of Products Corporation’s 5.75% Senior Notes due February 15, 2021 if, on that date (and solely for so long as), (i) any of Products Corporation’s 5.75% Senior Notes remain outstanding and (ii) Products Corporation’s available liquidity does not exceed the aggregate principal amount of its then outstanding 5.75% Senior Notes by at least $200 million. Tranche B under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility matures on April 17, 2020.
Guarantees and Security: The Restricted Group under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement (which is the same as the Restricted Group under the 2016 Term Loan Agreement) is subject to the covenants under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement. The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility is guaranteed by each of Products Corporation's existing and future direct or indirect wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiaries (subject to various exceptions), certain foreign subsidiaries, as well as by Revlon on a limited recourse basis. The obligations of Revlon, Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility are secured by pledges of the equity of Products Corporation held by Revlon and the equity of Products Corporation’s restricted subsidiaries held by Products Corporation and each subsidiary guarantor (subject to certain exceptions, including equity of first-tier foreign subsidiaries in excess of 65% of the voting equity interests of such entity) and by substantially all tangible and intangible personal and real property of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors (subject to certain exclusions). The obligors and guarantors under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility and the 2016 Term Loan Facility are identical. The liens on the Revolving Facility Collateral securing the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility rank first in priority to the liens thereon securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility, which rank second in priority on such collateral. The liens on the Term Loan Collateral securing the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility rank second in priority to the liens thereon securing the 2016 Term Loan Facility, which rank first in priority on such collateral.
Interest and Fees: Under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, interest is payable quarterly and accrues on borrowings under such facility at a rate per annum equal to either: (i) the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin equal to (A) in the case of the Tranche A, 0.25%, 0.50% or 0.75%, or (B) in the case of the Tranche B, 1.50%, 1.75% or 2.00%, in each case depending on the average excess availability (based on the borrowing base as most recently reported by Products Corporation to the administrative agent from time-to-time); or (ii) the Eurocurrency rate plus an applicable margin equal to (A) in the case of the Tranche A, 1.25%, 1.50% or 1.75%, or (B) in the case of the Tranche B, 2.50%, 2.75% or 3.00%, in each case depending on the average excess availability (based on the borrowing base as most recently reported by Products Corporation to the administrative agent from time-to-time), at Products Corporation’s option. The applicable margin decreases as the average excess availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility increases.
Products Corporation is obligated to pay certain fees and expenses in connection with the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, including a commitment fee of 0.25% for any unused amounts under the Tranche A and 0.50% for any unused amounts under the Tranche B Loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility may be prepaid without premium or penalty.
Affirmative and Negative Covenants: The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that are similar to those in the 2016 Term Loan Agreement, other than the "available amount basket" (as described above in the description of the 2016 Term Loan Facility); provided, however, under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement the Restricted Group will be able to incur unlimited additional amounts of certain types of debt, make unlimited asset sales and dispositions, make unlimited investments and acquisitions, prepay junior debt and make unlimited restricted payments to the extent that certain "payment conditions" for asset-based credit facilities are satisfied. The Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and events of default. If Products Corporation’s "Liquidity Amount" (defined in the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement as the Borrowing Base (capped at 100% of the Revolving Commitment) less the sum of (x) the aggregate outstanding extensions of credit under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, and (y) any availability reserve in effect on such date falls below the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility (a "Liquidity Event Period"), then the Restricted Group will be required to maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (the ratio of Products Corporation’s EBITDA minus capital expenditures to cash interest expense and scheduled principal payments under the 2016 Term Loan Agreement for such period, the "FCCR") of a minimum of 1.0 to 1.0 until the first date after 20 consecutive business days for which the Liquidity Amount is equal to or greater than such threshold. Under Amendment No. 2, such availability reserve amounts were set at $50 million and 15% in connection with triggering certain notification obligations, increased borrowing base reporting frequency, and the ability of the administrative agent to apply amounts collected in controlled accounts for the repayment of loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. If Products Corporation is in default under the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Agreement, Products Corporation may cure such default by Products Corporation and/or Revlon issuing certain equity securities and Products Corporation receiving capital contributions from Revlon, with such cash being deemed to increase EBITDA for the purpose of calculating the applicable ratio. Products Corporation may exercise this cure right no more than two times in any four-quarter period, and no more than five times in total during the term of the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. As Products Corporation’s consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was greater than 1.0 to 1.0 as of December 31, 2019, all of the $157.7 million of availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility was available as of such date.
Prepayments: Products Corporation must prepay (i) Tranche A borrowings under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility to the extent that outstanding loans thereunder and letters of credit exceed the Tranche A availability and (ii) Tranche B borrowings under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility to the extent that outstanding loans thereunder exceed the Tranche B availability; provided that the Tranche A borrowings are required to be repaid prior to the repayment of the Tranche B borrowings. During a Liquidity Event Period, the administrative agent may apply amounts collected in controlled accounts for the repayment of loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility. After entering into Amendment No. 2, in March 2019 Products Corporation’s availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility was $37.3 million, which was less than the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, which at such date equated to $41.3 million. Accordingly, effective beginning in March 2019 Products Corporation is required to maintain a FCCR of a minimum of 1.0 to 1.0 (which it currently satisfies), the administrative agent may apply amounts collected in controlled accounts for the repayment of loans under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, which the administrative agent began applying in March 2019, and Products Corporation is required to provide the administrative agent with weekly borrowing base certificates. Products Corporation will be required to: (i) maintain such 1.0 to 1.0 minimum FCCR until such time that availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility equals or exceeds the greater of $35 million and 10% of the maximum availability under such facility for at least 20 consecutive business days; and (ii) Products Corporation will continue to provide the administrative agent with weekly borrowing base certificates and the administrative agent may continue to apply amounts collected in controlled accounts as set forth above in each case until such time that availability under such facility is equal or exceeds the greater of $50 million and 15% of the maximum availability under such facility for at least 20 consecutive business days. Amendment No. 2 also adjusts, among other things, the “payment conditions” required to make unlimited restricted payments.
(g) 5.75% Senior Notes
In February 2013, Products Corporation completed its offering (the "2013 Senior Notes Refinancing"), pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act, of $500 million aggregate principal amount of the 5.75% Senior Notes. The 5.75% Senior Notes are unsecured and were issued to investors at par. The 5.75% Senior Notes mature on February 15, 2021. Interest on the 5.75% Senior Notes accrues at 5.75% per annum, paid every six months on February 15th and August 15th.
The 5.75% Senior Notes were issued pursuant to the 5.75% Senior Notes Indenture (the "5.75% Senior Notes Indenture" and together with the 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture, the "Senior Notes Indentures"), dated as of February 8, 2013 (the "5.75% Senior Notes Closing Date"), by and among Products Corporation, Products Corporation’s domestic subsidiaries (the "5.75% Senior Notes Guarantors"), which also currently guarantee Products Corporation’s 2016 Senior Credit Facilities and the 6.25% Senior Notes, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "5.75% Senior Notes Trustee"). The 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantors issued guarantees (the "5.75% Senior Notes Guarantees") of Products Corporation’s obligations under the 5.75% Senior Notes and the 5.75% Senior Notes Indenture on a joint and several, senior unsecured basis.
In December 2013, Products Corporation consummated an offer to exchange the original 5.75% Senior Notes for $500 million of new 5.75% Senior Notes, which have substantially the same terms as the original 5.75% Senior Notes, except that they are registered under the Securities Act (such registered new notes being the "5.75% Senior Notes").
Products Corporation used a portion of the $491.2 million of net proceeds from the issuance of the 5.75% Senior Notes (net of underwriters' fees) to repay and redeem all of the $330 million then outstanding aggregate principal amount of its 9.75% Senior Secured Notes, as well as to pay $8.6 million of accrued interest. Products Corporation incurred an aggregate of $19.4 million of fees for the applicable redemption and tender offer premiums, related fees and expenses in connection with redemption and repayment of the 9.75% Senior Secured Notes and other fees and expenses in connection with the issuance of the 5.75% Senior Notes. Products Corporation used a portion of the remaining proceeds from the issuance of the 5.75% Senior Notes, together with existing cash, to pay approximately $113 million of principal on its then outstanding 2011 Term Loan in conjunction with the February 2013 Term Loan Amendments. Products Corporation used the remaining balance available from the issuance of the 5.75% Senior Notes for general corporate purposes, including, without limitation, debt reduction transactions, such as repaying a loan to Revlon at its maturity on October 8, 2013, which proceeds Revlon used to pay the liquidation preference of Revlon's then outstanding Series A Preferred Stock, in connection with its mandatory redemption on such date.
Ranking: The 5.75% Senior Notes are Products Corporation’s unsubordinated, unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any future subordinated obligations of Products Corporation and rank pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior debt of Products Corporation. Similarly, each 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantee is the relevant 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantor’s joint and several, unsubordinated and unsecured obligation, ranking senior in right of payment to any future subordinated obligations of such 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantor and ranking pari passu in right of payment with all existing and future senior debt of such 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantor. The 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantees were issued on a joint and several basis.
The 5.75% Senior Notes and the 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantees rank effectively junior to Products Corporation’s 2016 Senior Credit Facilities and 2019 Term Loan Facility which are secured, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness, as well as indebtedness and preferred stock of Products Corporation’s foreign and immaterial subsidiaries (including the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility) (the "5.75% Senior Notes Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries" and together with the 6.25% Senior Notes Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries, the "Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"), none of which guarantee the 5.75% Senior Notes.
Optional Redemption: The 5.75% Senior Notes may be redeemed at Products Corporation's option, at any time as a whole, or from time-to-time in part, at 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued interest to the date of redemption.
Change of Control: Upon the occurrence of specified change of control events, Products Corporation is required to make an offer to purchase all of the 5.75% Senior Notes at a purchase price of 101% of the outstanding principal amount of the 5.75% Senior Notes as of the date of any such repurchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.
Certain Covenants: The 5.75% Senior Notes Indenture limits Products Corporation’s and the 5.75% Senior Notes Guarantors’ ability, and the ability of certain other subsidiaries, to:
• incur or guarantee additional indebtedness ("Limitation on Debt");
• pay dividends, make repayments on indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the 5.75% Senior Notes and make other "restricted payments" ("Limitation on Restricted Payments");
• make certain investments;
• create liens on their assets to secure debt;
• enter into transactions with affiliates;
• merge, consolidate or amalgamate with another company ("Successor Company");
• transfer and sell assets ("Limitation on Asset Sales"); and
permit restrictions on the payment of dividends by Products Corporation’s subsidiaries ("Limitation on Dividends from Subsidiaries").
These covenants are subject to important qualifications and exceptions. The 5.75% Senior Notes Indenture also contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default.
In addition, if during any period of time the 5.75% Senior Notes receive investment grade ratings from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the 5.75% Senior Notes Indenture, Products Corporation and its subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenants on Limitation on Debt, Limitation on Restricted Payments, Limitation on Asset Sales, Limitation on Dividends from Subsidiaries and certain provisions of the Successor Company covenant. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 5.75% Senior Notes at December 31, 2019 was $500.0 million.
(h) 6.25% Senior Notes
In August 2016, Revlon Escrow Corporation (the "Escrow Issuer"), which was a wholly owned subsidiary of Products Corporation, completed the 6.25% Senior Notes offering, pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended, the "Securities Act"), of $450 million aggregate principal amount of the 6.25% Senior Notes due 2024. The 6.25% Senior Notes are unsecured and were initially issued by the Escrow Issuer to the initial purchasers under an Indenture, dated as of August 4, 2016 (the "6.25% Senior Notes Indenture"), between the Escrow Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "6.25% Senior Notes Trustee"). The 6.25% Senior Notes mature on August 1, 2024. Interest on the 6.25% Senior Notes accrues at 6.25% per annum, paid every six months through maturity on each February 1 and August 1. The proceeds from the 6.25% Senior Notes were released from escrow on the September 7, 2016 The Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date (the "Escrow Release"). On the Elizabeth Arden Acquisition Date, the Escrow Issuer was merged with and into Products Corporation and in connection with the Escrow Release, Products Corporation and certain of its direct and indirect wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, including Elizabeth Arden and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors"), and the 6.25% Senior Notes Trustee entered into a supplemental indenture (the "6.25% Senior Notes Supplemental Indenture") to the 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture, pursuant to which Products Corporation assumed the obligations of the Escrow Issuer under the 6.25% Senior Notes and the 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally guaranteed the 6.25% Senior Notes on a senior unsecured basis (the "6.25% Senior Notes Guarantees"). The 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors are the same entities that are subsidiary guarantors under the 2016 Senior Credit Facilities.
In December 2016, Products Corporation consummated an offer to exchange the original 6.25% Senior Notes for $450 million of new 6.25% Senior Notes, which have substantially the same terms as the original 6.25% Senior Notes, except that they are registered under the Securities Act (such registered new notes being the "6.25% Senior Notes").
Ranking: The 6.25% Senior Notes are Products Corporation’s senior, unsubordinated and unsecured obligations, ranking: (i) pari passu in right of payment with all of Products Corporation’s existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness; (ii) senior in right of payment to all of Products Corporation’s and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors’ future subordinated indebtedness; and (iii) effectively junior to all of Products Corporation’s and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors’ existing and future senior secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under Products Corporation’s 2016 Senior Credit Facilities and the 2019 Term Loan Facility, to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness. The 6.25% Senior Notes and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantees are: (i) structurally subordinated to all of the liabilities and preferred stock of any of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the 6.25% Senior Notes; and (ii) pari passu in right of payment with liabilities of the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors other than expressly subordinated indebtedness. The 6.25% Senior Notes and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantees rank effectively junior to indebtedness and preferred stock of Products Corporation’s foreign and immaterial subsidiaries (including the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Facility) (the "6.25% Senior Notes Non-Guarantor Subsidiaries"), none of which guarantee the 6.25% Senior Notes.
Optional Redemption: Products Corporation may redeem the 6.25% Senior Notes at its option, at any time as a whole, or from time to time in part, at the following redemption prices (expressed as percentages of principal amount), plus accrued interest to (but not including) the date of redemption, if redeemed during the 12-month period beginning on August 1 of the years indicated below:
PeriodOptimal Redemption Premium Percentage
2020103.125%  
2021101.563%  
2022 and thereafter100.000%  
All redemptions (and notices thereof) may be subject to various conditions precedent, and redemption dates specified in such notices may be extended so that such conditions precedent may be fulfilled (to the extent redemption on such dates is otherwise permitted by the 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture).
Change of Control: Upon the occurrence of specified change of control events, Products Corporation is required to make an offer to purchase all of the 6.25% Senior Notes at a purchase price of 101% of the outstanding principal amount of the 6.25% Senior Notes as of the date of any such repurchase, plus accrued and unpaid interest to (but not including) the date of repurchase.
Certain Covenants: The 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture imposes certain limitations on Products Corporation’s and the 6.25% Senior Notes Guarantors’ ability, and the ability of certain other subsidiaries, to: (i) incur or guarantee additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock; (ii) pay dividends, make certain investments and make repayments on indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the 6.25% Senior Notes and make other "restricted payments"; (iii) create liens on their assets to secure debt; (iv) enter into transactions with affiliates; (v) merge, consolidate or amalgamate with another company; (vi) transfer and sell assets; and (vii) permit restrictions on the payment of dividends by Products Corporation's subsidiaries.
These covenants are subject to important qualifications and exceptions. The 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture also contains customary affirmative covenants and events of default. In addition, if during any period of time the 6.25% Senior Notes receive investment grade ratings from both Standard & Poor’s and Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the 6.25% Senior Notes Indenture, Products Corporation and its subsidiaries will not be subject to the covenants regarding limitations on debt, limitations on restricted payments, limitation on guarantees by restricted subsidiaries, limitation on transactions with affiliates, certain provisions of the successor company covenant, limitation on asset sales and limitation on dividends from restricted subsidiaries.
The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 6.25% Senior Notes at December 31, 2019 was $450.0 million.
See Note 22, “Subsequent Events –2020 Refinancing Transactions.”

Covenants

Products Corporation was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the 2016 Credit Agreements, the 2019 Term Loan Agreement, the 2018 Foreign Asset-Based Term Agreement, the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Agreement, as well as with all applicable covenants under its Senior Notes Indentures, as of December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2019, the aggregate principal amounts outstanding and availability under Products Corporation’s various revolving credit facilities were as follows:
CommitmentBorrowing BaseAggregate principal amount outstanding at December 31, 2019
Availability at December 31, 2019 (a)
Tranche A of the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility$400.0  $400.0  $230.9  $157.7

Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility$30.0  N/A  $—  $30.0  
(a) Availability as of December 31, 2019 is based upon the borrowing base then in effect under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility of $441.5 million, less $11.4 million of outstanding undrawn letters of credit and $272.4 million then drawn. As Products Corporation’s consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio was greater than 1.0 to 1.0 as of December 31, 2019, all of the $157.7 million of availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility was available as of such date.
The Company’s foreign subsidiaries held $102.5 million out of the Company's total $104.3 million in cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2019. While the cash held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is primarily used to fund their operations, the Company regularly assesses its global cash needs and the available sources of cash to fund these needs, which regularly includes repatriating foreign-held cash to settle historical intercompany loans and other intercompany payables. The Company believes that it has and will have sufficient liquidity to meet its cash needs for at least the next 12 months based upon the cash generated by its operations, cash on hand, availability under the Amended 2016 Revolving Credit Facility, the Amended 2019 Senior Line of Credit Facility, the 2020 Refinancing Transactions and other permissible borrowings, along with the option to further settle historical intercompany loans and payables with certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company also expects to generate additional liquidity from cost reductions resulting from the implementation of the 2018 Optimization Program, which was initiated during the fourth quarter of 2018, and cost reductions generated from other cost control initiatives, as well as funds provided by selling certain assets (such as the Natural Honey and Floid brands that were sold in December 2019) in connection with the Company's ongoing Strategic Review. See Note 22, “Subsequent Events –2020 Refinancing Transactions.
