Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On July 19, 2019, Global Eagle Entertainment Inc. (the “Company” or “we”) entered into an Omnibus Incremental Term Loan and Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement and Amendment to Security Agreement (the “First Lien Amendment”) among the Company, the guarantors party thereto (the “Guarantors”), the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), which First Lien Amendment amends the terms of (i) that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2017, by and among the Company, the Guarantors identified on the signature pages thereto, each lender from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”) and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, L/C Issuer, and Swing Line Lender (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including pursuant to the First Lien Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”) and (ii) that certain Security Agreement, dated as of January 6, 2017 (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including pursuant to the First Lien Amendment, the “Security Agreement”), by and among the Grantors identified on the signature pages thereto and the Administrative Agent.

In addition, on July 19, 2019, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to Securities Purchase Agreement and Amendment to Security Agreement (the “Second Lien Amendment”) among the Company, the Guarantors, Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as collateral agent, and each purchaser party thereto, which Second Lien Amendment amends that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 8, 2018, by and among the Company, Searchlight II TBO, L.P., Searchlight II TBO-W, L.P., and Cortland Capital Market Services LLC, as collateral agent (as amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, including pursuant to the Second Lien Amendment, the “Purchase Agreement”; the notes issued thereunder, the “Second Lien Notes”). In addition, in connection with the foregoing amendments, the applicable parties to the Intercreditor Agreement (as defined in the Credit Agreement) agreed to certain amendments to that agreement (the “Intercreditor Amendment” and together with the First Lien Amendment and the Second Lien Amendment, the “Amendments”).

First Lien Amendment

The First Lien Amendment modified the Credit Agreement, including, with respect to the following terms:

 

   

Certain of the Lenders provided the Company with incremental term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans”) in the aggregate principal amount of $40,000,000, which Incremental Term Loans are pari passu in right of payment and security with the existing term loans under the Credit Agreement.

 

   

The interest rate and maturity date for the Incremental Term Loans are the same as the existing term loans under the Credit Agreement.

 

   

The amortization schedule for the existing term loans is being reset as of the closing date of the First Lien Amendment, which requires an adjustment to the stated amortization rate from 5.0% per annum, to 5.33333% per annum, but which adjustment will not change the actual cash amount of amortization payments received by the existing term loan Lenders in respect of their existing term loans.

 

   

All Incremental Term Loans and all existing term loans under the Credit Agreement have been converted into a new class of term loans under the Credit Agreement (“Amortization Holiday Loans”), which shall amortize on the following reduced schedule (from the previous schedule of 5.33333% per annum (payable quarterly)): (i) 1.0666% per annum (payable quarterly) for a four (4) payment date period commencing on and including the September 30, 2019 payment date and continuing until and including the June 30, 2020 payment date and (ii) 2.6666% per annum (payable quarterly) for the September 30, 2020 payment date and the December 31, 2020 payment date. To the extent certain additional conditions described in the First Lien Amendment are satisfied as of future principal payment dates, the amortization holiday may be extended on such principal payment dates with respect to the Amortization Holiday Loans. 100% of the existing term loans will be converted into Amortization Holiday Loans.

 

   

The Incremental Term Loans were issued with original issue discount of 5.5% and each Lender providing Incremental Term Loans received an incremental term fee equal to 1.00% of the principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans provided by such Lender. In addition, each existing term loan Lender that has agreed to convert its existing term loans into Amortization Holiday Loans received an amendment fee equal to 0.25% of the principal amount of such Lender’s existing term loans.

 

   

As additional collateral security, 100% of the equity interests of (i) all domestic subsidiaries not previously pledged (including any immaterial subsidiaries) and (ii) all first tier foreign subsidiaries, in each case, shall be pledged (the “Additional Equity Pledges”). With respect to foreign subsidiaries, before giving effect to the First Lien Amendment, only 65% of the equity interests of material first tier foreign subsidiaries was pledged as collateral under the Security Agreement.

 

   

The definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” has been amended and the quarterly net first lien leverage ratio financial maintenance covenant levels have been reset.

 

1


   

Certain exceptions to the negative covenants (including with respect to debt incurrence, liens, investments and asset sales) have been modified or removed and the Company is prohibited from making any cash interest or principal payments on the Second Lien Notes.

 

   

Other than in the case of casualty events, the Company’s reinvestment rights in connection with asset dispositions has been removed. In addition, the prepayment waterfall in connection with asset sales has been modified to:

 

   

permit the Company to retain up to the first $8,000,000 of aggregate net proceeds received by the Company and its subsidiaries in connection with asset sales in any fiscal year.

 

   

If the Company and its subsidiaries receive more than $50,000,000 but less than $100,000,000 of aggregate net proceeds from asset sales in any fiscal year, permit the Company to retain up to an additional $4,000,000 of such aggregate net proceeds after using $50,000,000 to prepay the term loans as required by the mandatory prepayment provisions of the Credit Agreement (for a total of up to $12,000,000 when combined with the $8,000,000 described in the immediately preceding bullet point).

 

   

If the Company and its subsidiaries receive more than $100,000,000 of aggregate net proceeds from asset sales in any fiscal year, permit the Company to retain up to an additional $12,000,000 of such aggregate net proceeds after using $100,000,000 to prepay the term loans as required by the mandatory prepayment provisions of the Credit Agreement (for a total of up to $24,000,000 when combined with the $12,000,000 described in the immediately preceding bullet point).

Second Lien Amendment

The Second Lien Amendment modified the Purchase Agreement, including with respect to the following terms:

 

   

Unless the terms of the Credit Agreement permit cash interest payments, all interest payments under the Second Lien Notes shall be paid in-kind at a rate per annum of 12%, payable semi-annually.

 

   

The Second Lien Notes are secured by the Additional Equity Pledges on a second lien basis, subject to the terms of the existing intercreditor agreement.

 

   

The existing prepayment premium schedule on the Second Lien Notes has been replaced with a revised make-whole premium extended through maturity of the Second Lien Notes.

 

   

Corresponding changes have been made to the Purchase Agreement including with respect to definition of “Consolidated EBITDA” and the negative covenant exceptions, in each case, to the extent applicable, in order to mirror the changes to the Credit Agreement contemplated by the First Lien Amendment.

The descriptions contained herein of the Amendments are qualified in their entirety by reference to the terms of the First Lien Amendment, the Second Lien Amendment, and the Intercreditor Amendment, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
