Term Loans and Line of Credit with PNC Bank

The Company has a credit agreement that includes a revolving line of credit and term loan credit facility with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto.

In May 2023, the Company entered into an Incremental Facility Amendment with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and various lenders party thereto that amended the Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated October 28, 2020 (the “Credit Agreement” and, together with the Incremental Facility Amendment, the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

Pursuant to the Incremental Facility Amendment, the Company incurred a new senior secured term loan A-2 (the “Term Loan A-2”) in an aggregate principal amount of $150.0. The issue price of the Term Loan A-2 was equal to 100% of the aggregate principal amount thereof. The Term Loan A-2 bears interest at a rate based on either (i) the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) (subject to a 0% floor) for the applicable interest period plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.50% and 2.75%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio or (ii) a variable rate equal to the highest of (x) the overnight bank funding rate plus 0.50%, (y) the prime rate and (z) daily simple SOFR, plus a 0.10% SOFR adjustment plus 1.00%, plus an applicable margin ranging between 0.50% and 1.75%, depending on the Company’s leverage ratio. The Term Loan A-2 is guaranteed by each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries and is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the guarantors, on a pari passu basis with the other facilities under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Term Loan A-2 matures on October 28, 2025, and is not subject to any mandatory repayments prior to such maturity date.

The net proceeds from the Term Loan A-2, together with cash on hand, were used to repay outstanding amounts under the Company’s revolving credit facility. Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company continues to have access to an accordion feature with the ability to increase the revolver or incur additional term loans under the incremental facility of $300.0 after giving effect to borrowings under the Term Loan A-2.

The revolving line of credit allows for borrowings up to an aggregate maximum principal amount of $400.0. To hedge currency exposure in foreign operations, €90.0 of the borrowings on the line of credit are denominated in euros. The borrowings have been designated as a net investment hedge, see additional information in Note 8.

The effective interest rate on the credit agreement at September 30, 2023, was 7.4%. Interest expense recognized on the credit agreement, excluding interest rate swap activity, during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, and October 1, 2022, totaled $27.5 and $9.8, respectively. As of September 30, 2023, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants related to the Amended Credit Agreement.
