Supervalu’s credit facilities and certain long-term debt agreements have restrictive covenants and cross-default provisions, which generally provide, subject to Supervalu’s right to cure, for the acceleration of payments due in the event of a breach of a covenant or a default in the payment of a specified amount of indebtedness due under certain other debt agreements. Supervalu was in compliance with all such covenants and provisions for all periods presented.

Senior Secured Credit Agreements

During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, Supervalu entered into a fourth amendment agreement (the “Fourth Term Loan Amendment”) amending and restating its Secured Term Loan Facility due March 2019 (the “Secured Term Loan Facility due March 2019” and as amended and restated, the “Secured Term Loan Facility”). The Secured Term Loan Facility provides for (i) an initial term loan facility of $525, which was drawn down in full to refinance outstanding loans under the Secured Term Loan Facility due March 2019, and (ii) a delayed draw term loan facility of $315, which was drawn down in full in the second quarter of fiscal 2018 for the purpose of consummating the acquisition of Unified. Borrowings under the Secured Term Loan Facility bear interest at the rate of LIBOR plus 3.50 percent with a floor on LIBOR set at 1.00 percent, compared to the rate under the Secured Term Loan Facility due March 2019 of LIBOR plus 4.50 percent with a floor of 1.00 percent. The Secured Term Loan Facility will mature on June 8, 2024. However, if Supervalu has not repaid its 6.75 percent Senior Notes due June 2021 or its 7.75 percent Senior Notes due November 2022 by the date that is 91 days prior to the respective maturity date of such notes, the Secured Term Loan Facility will mature on the date that is 91 days prior to the maturity date of such notes. During the first quarter of fiscal 2018, in connection with the completion of the Fourth Term Loan Amendment, Supervalu paid debt financing costs of approximately $8, of which $5 was capitalized and $3 was expensed, and paid original issue discount of approximately $2, all of which was capitalized, and recognized a non-cash charge of approximately $2 for the write-off of existing unamortized debt financing costs. On June 23, 2017, in connection with the closing of the acquisition of Unified, Supervalu executed the delayed draw under the Secured Term Loan Facility and increased the outstanding borrowings under the facility to $840.

The Secured Term Loan Facility is secured by substantially all of Supervalu’s real estate, equipment and certain other assets. The Secured Term Loan Facility is guaranteed by Supervalu’s material subsidiaries (together with Supervalu, the “Term Loan Parties”). To secure their obligations under the Secured Term Loan Facility, the Term Loan Parties have granted a perfected first-priority security interest in substantially all of their intellectual property and a first-priority mortgage lien and security interest in certain owned or ground-leased real estate and associated equipment pledged as collateral. As of December 2, 2017 and February 25, 2017, there was $713 and $520, respectively, of owned or ground-leased real estate and associated equipment pledged as collateral, which was included in Property, plant and equipment, net in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. In addition, the obligations of the Term Loan Parties under the Secured Term Loan Facility are secured by second-priority security interests in the collateral securing Supervalu’s $1,000 asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Revolving ABL Credit Facility”). As of December 2, 2017 and February 25, 2017, $8 and $0 of the Secured Term Loan Facility was classified as current, respectively, excluding debt financing costs and original issue discount.

The loans under the Secured Term Loan Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in certain minimum principal amounts, subject to the payment of breakage or similar costs and, in certain circumstances, a prepayment fee. Pursuant to the Secured Term Loan Facility, Supervalu must, subject to certain exceptions and certain customary reinvestment rights, apply 100 percent of Net Cash Proceeds (as defined in the facility) from certain types of asset sales (excluding proceeds of the collateral security of the Revolving ABL Credit Facility and other secured indebtedness) to prepay the loans outstanding under the Secured Term Loan Facility. Supervalu must also prepay loans outstanding under the facility no later than 90 days after the fiscal year end in an aggregate principal amount equal to a percentage (which percentage ranges from 0 to 50 percent depending on Supervalu’s Total Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the facility) as of the last day of such fiscal year) of Excess Cash Flow (as defined in the facility) for the fiscal year then ended, minus any voluntary prepayments made during such fiscal year with Internally Generated Cash (as defined in the facility). Based on Supervalu’s Total Secured Leverage Ratio (as defined in the facility) as of the last day of fiscal 2017, no prepayment from Excess Cash Flow in fiscal 2017 was required in fiscal 2018. The potential amount of prepayment from Excess Cash Flow in fiscal 2018 that may be required in fiscal 2019 is not reasonably estimable as of December 2, 2017.

The revolving loans under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility may be voluntarily prepaid in certain minimum principal amounts, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, subject to breakage or similar costs. Supervalu and those subsidiaries named as borrowers under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility are required to repay the revolving loans in cash and provide cash collateral under this facility to the extent that the revolving loans and letters of credit exceed the lesser of the borrowing base then in effect or the aggregate amount of the lenders’ commitments under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility. Certain of Supervalu’s material subsidiaries are co-borrowers under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility, and this facility is guaranteed by the rest of Supervalu’s material subsidiaries (Supervalu and those subsidiaries named as borrowers and guarantors under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility, the “ABL Loan Parties”). To secure their obligations under this facility, the ABL Loan Parties have granted a perfected first-priority security interest for the benefit of the facility lenders in their present and future inventory, credit card, wholesale trade, pharmacy and certain other receivables, prescription files and related assets. In addition, the obligations under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility are secured by second-priority liens on and security interests in the collateral securing the Secured Term Loan Facility, subject to certain limitations to ensure compliance with Supervalu’s outstanding debt instruments and leases.

As of December 2, 2017 and February 25, 2017, there were $110 and $0, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility. The assets included in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets securing the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility on a first-priority basis, and the unused available credit and fees under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility, were as follows:



Assets securing the Revolving ABL Credit Facility⁽¹⁾:	December 2, 2017		February 25, 2017
Certain inventory assets included in Inventories, net	$	1,462	$	949
Certain receivables included in Receivables, net	393		228
Certain amounts included in Cash and cash equivalents	21		19


(1)	The Revolving ABL Credit Facility is also secured by all of Supervalu's pharmacy scripts included in Intangible assets, net.



Unused available credit and fees under the Revolving ABL Credit Facility:	December 2, 2017			February 25, 2017
Outstanding letters of credit	$	55		$	53
Letters of credit fees	1.375		%	1.375		%
Unused available credit	835			748
Unused facility fees	0.25		%	0.25		%

Both the Secured Term Loan Facility and the Revolving ABL Credit Facility limit Supervalu’s ability to make Restricted Payments (as defined in both the Secured Term Loan Facility and the Revolving ABL Credit Facility), which include dividends to stockholders and share repurchases. The Secured Term Loan Facility allows up to $125 of Restricted Payments regardless of the resulting pro forma Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the facility). The Secured Term Loan Facility caps the aggregate amount of additional Restricted Payments that may be made over the life of the Secured Term Loan Facility, with the additional Restricted Payments being subject to a pro forma Total Secured Leverage Ratio requirement (as defined in the facility) of 3.5 to 1. That aggregate cap can fluctuate over time and the cap could be reduced by certain other actions taken by Supervalu, including prepayments of debt other than the senior notes and Permitted Investments (as defined in the Secured Term Loan Facility). As of December 2, 2017, this aggregate cap was approximately $502. The Senior Term Loan Facility permits unlimited Restricted Payments if the Total Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Senior Term Loan Facility) after giving effect thereto would be less than 2.0 to 1. The Revolving ABL Credit Facility permits dividends up to $75 per fiscal year, not to exceed $175 in the aggregate over the life of the Revolving ABL Credit Facility as long as no Cash Dominion Event (as defined in the Revolving ABL Credit Facility) exists. Those caps could be reduced by senior note and other prepayments made by Supervalu. The Revolving ABL Credit Facility permits unlimited Restricted Payments as long as the Payment Conditions (as defined in the Revolving ABL Credit Facility) are met.

Debentures

The $400 of 6.75 percent Senior Notes due June 2021 and the $350 of 7.75 percent Senior Notes due November 2022 contain operating covenants, including limitations on liens and on sale and leaseback transactions. Supervalu was in compliance with all such covenants and provisions for all periods presented.
