January 10 2025 - 8:00AM
Compass Diversified Holdings (NYSE: CODI) (“CODI” or the
“Company”), an owner of leading middle market businesses, announced
that on January 9, 2025, it entered into a First Incremental
Facility Amendment (the “Amendment”) to its existing Credit
Agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent for
the Lenders party thereto.
The Amendment modifies the Company’s Third
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 12, 2022,
as amended, among the Company, the Lenders, the Administrative
Agent and the other financial institutions party thereto, to
provide for (a) an additional advance of the term loan in the
aggregate amount of $200 million (the “Incremental Term Loan”) on
the date of the Amendment, and (b) delayed draw term loan
commitments in the aggregate amount of $100 million (the
“Incremental Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments,” and the loan
drawn thereunder is referred to herein as the “Incremental Delayed
Draw Term Loan”), which may be reduced or terminated by the Company
upon five business days’ notice and pursuant to which the Company
may make no more than two draws by July 9, 2025.
The proceeds from the Incremental Term Loan and
the Incremental Delayed Draw Term Loan will be used for new
acquisitions, working capital, capital expenditures and other
general corporate purposes. The Incremental Term Loan, along with
the existing term loan under the Credit Agreement, will require
quarterly repayments of principal amount ranging from $3.75 million
to $11.25 million, commencing March 31, 2025, with a final payment
of principal and interest due on July 12, 2027.
Commencing on the first quarter ending after the
earlier of (i) the date Incremental Delayed Draw Term Loan is fully
drawn and (ii) the end of the Availability Period, the Company will
be required to make quarterly repayments of principal amount
ranging from 0.625% to 1.875% of the drawn Incremental Delayed Draw
Term Loan (which amounts will be reduced by certain prepayment, if
any), unless such loan is accelerated sooner. The Amendment
contains customary representations and warranties. All other
material terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement were
unchanged.
