The Spinco Term Loan Facility has an applicable margin of (i) 1.75% (for LIBOR loans) and (ii) 0.75% (for base rate (“ABR”) loans). The terms of the Spinco Term Loan Credit Agreement are substantially consistent with terms of the Amended GDI Credit Agreement (as defined below).

On February 28, 2020,  the Company, Gardner Denver, Inc.

The GDI Amendment, among other things, (a) refinanced in full the existing senior secured first lien term loan facilities outstanding under the Existing GDI Credit Agreement with replacement senior secured first lien term loan facilities in an aggregate principal amount of approximately US $928 million (“GDI Tranche B-2 Dollar Term Loans”) and €602 million (“GDI Tranche B-2 Euro Term Loans”, and together with the GDI Tranche B-2 Dollar Term Loans, the “GDI Term Loan Facilities”), which will mature on February 28, 2027 (or, if such date is not a business day, the first business day thereafter) and (b) made certain other corresponding changes and updates. Loans under the GDI Term Loan Facilities will have the following applicable margins: (i) for LIBOR loans that are 2020 GDI Tranche B-2 Dollar Term Loans, 1.75%, (ii) for ABR loans that are 2020 GDI Tranche B-2 Dollar Term Loans, 0.75%, and (iii) for LIBOR loans that are 2020 GDI Tranche B-2 Euro Term Loans, 2.00%.

Following the effectiveness of the GDI Amendment and the consummation of the Distribution and of the Merger, the SpinCo Borrower was designated as an additional borrower under the Amended GDI Credit Agreement (the “Designation”) and the term loans of the Spinco Borrower outstanding under the Spinco Term Loan Agreement were designated as loans under the terms of the Amended GDI Credit Agreement.  The Spinco Borrower remains the borrower in respect of the Spinco Term Loan Facility which is separate and distinct from the GDI Term Loan Facilities. Following the effectiveness of the GDI Amendment, the Distribution, the Merger and and the Designation, the Spinco Term Loan Facility and GDI Term Loan Facilities have guarantees from the same credit parties and are secured by the same collateral.
