TIDMSKGSmurfit Kappa Group completes amendments
to its Senior Credit Facility Agreement
3 July 2009: Smurfit Kappa Group plc ("SKG" or the "Group"), one of the world's largest integrated manufacturers of paper-based packaging products, with operations in Europe and Latin America, today announced that the amendments to its Senior Credit Facility have now become effective.
Lenders comprising in excess of 98% of the Facility consented to the proposed amendments, providing the Group with (i) the ability to raise longer dated financing, as and when market conditions are attractive, to refinance a portion of its existing bank facilities and (ii) increased leverage and interest cover covenant headroom.
In addition, lenders holding 75% of the Group's revolving credit facility ("RCF") elected to extend their commitments by one year. The original EUR600 million RCF maturing in December 2012 has therefore been converted into two tranches totalling EUR525 million of which EUR152 million matures in December 2012 and EUR373 million in December 2013 (SKG had targeted a minimum RCF amount of EUR200 million to be extended to December 2013).
Smurfit Kappa Group's Chief Financial Officer, Mr Ian Curley, commented "We are pleased to have completed the amendments to our Senior Credit Facility within the expected timeframe and costs. This initiative forms part of an ongoing process of effective capital management and further strengthens our balance sheet in light of the ongoing uncertainty in the global economic environment."
