(NYSE: PACD) (the “Company”) announced today that it has entered into a $50 million first lien superpriority revolving credit agreement with Angelo, Gordon Energy Servicer, LLC, as administrative agent and the lenders party thereto (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”). The Company expects to use any future borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement to finance working capital and capital expenditure needs.
The Company’s obligations under the Revolving Credit Agreement are guaranteed by all of the subsidiaries that guaranty the Company’s 8.375% First Lien Notes due 2023 (“First Lien Notes”) and 11.0/12.0% Second Lien PIK Notes due 2024 (together, the “Notes”).
The Revolving Credit Agreement is secured by a sole first-priority lien on the Company’s and the guarantors’ accounts receivable and a shared first-priority lien (with holders of the First Lien Notes), on all assets serving as collateral under such First Lien Notes, with a superpriority right to repayment ahead of other first lien holders in an enforcement action.
The facility represents a portion of the Company’s permitted indebtedness capacity under the Indentures governing the Notes while preserving other permitted indebtedness capacity, such as the ability to incur up to $50 million with respect to a capital lease facility or to incur up to $50 million through use of our general indebtedness basket, which may be secured.
Pacific Drilling CEO Bernie Wolford commented, “We are pleased to partner with Angelo Gordon for this three-year $50 million facility.
