Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 19, 2014, EarthLink Holdings Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Second Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of May 29, 2013 (as previously amended, the “Credit Agreement”) with the Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders party thereto and Regions Bank, as administrative and collateral agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $135 million senior secured credit facility, all of which is unutilized as of the date of this filing.
The primary purpose of the Amendment is to permit the Company to repurchase from cash on hand up to $30 million of its 8.875% senior notes due 2019 and/or its 7.375% senior secured notes due 2020 (collectively, the “Notes”) as long as such purchases otherwise comply with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the terms of the applicable indentures. The Amendment also makes other form updates.
There are no assurances that the Company will repurchase any Notes.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete; and the references to the Amendment are qualified in their entirety by reference to the copy of the Amendment filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.
