Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure

On March 1, 2013, Eastman Kodak Company (the “Company”) announced that it has reached an agreement with the members of the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders to amend the terms of the commitment letter for the previously-announced interim junior debtor-in-possession financing (the “Junior DIP Facility”) and exit financing.

In connection with the negotiation and execution of the amended and restated commitment letter and the filing of this report on Form 8-K, the amended and restated commitment letter has been made available to certain parties and is therefore being furnished as Exhibit 99.1.

Item 8.01 Other Events

On March 1, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing that it has reached an agreement with the members of the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders to amend the Junior DIP Facility and exit financing. A copy of the press release is attached as Exhibit 99.2, and is incorporated into this Item 8.01 by reference.

The amended and restated commitment letter, revised form of the Junior DIP Facility agreement and form of exit financing agreement will be filed with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York.

In connection with the negotiation and execution of the amendment and restatement of the commitment letter, the Company has extended the Expiration Time and Record Date of its offer to holders of its pre-petition second-lien notes to subscribe for new money loans and exchange second lien notes held by them for junior loans under the Junior DIP Facility (the “Offer”) to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on March 14, 2013. Additional information on these dates and the revised dates for the Funding Notification Date, Funding Date and Closing Date will be provided in Supplement No. 2 to the Information Memorandum for the Offer (“Supplement No. 2”) which will be distributed to holders of the Company’s second lien notes as of the mailing record date. The terms Expiration Time, Record Date, Funding Notification Date, Funding Date and Closing Date have the meanings given in the Information Memorandum, dated January 24, 2013, as supplemented on February 7, 2013 and March 1, 2013. Additionally, to participate in the Offer a holder is required to submit a new letter of transmittal in accordance with procedures set forth in Supplement No. 2 and in the form accompanying Supplement No. 2.

Given the changes effected by the amended and restated commitment letter, any letter of transmittal submitted prior to March 1, 2013 will no longer be effective to participate in the Offer. To be eligible to participate in the Offer, a holder must validly submit a new letter of transmittal in the form accompanying Supplement No. 2 and no other form of letter of transmittal will be accepted by the Company.

$830,000,000 Debtor-in-Possession Facility

Amended & Restated Commitment Letter

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Reference is made to the original commitment letter, dated December 13, 2012 (the “Original Commitment Letter”), among Eastman Kodak Company (the “Company”) and the Commitment Parties party thereto (the “Original Commitment Parties”), as amended by the Joinder Agreement (“Joinder Agreement”), dated January 24, 2013 pursuant to which certain Additional Lead Lenders (as defined therein) (together with the Original Commitment Parties, the “Existing Commitment Parties”) joined the Original Commitment Letter in respect of the $830,000,000 Debtor-in-Possession Facility referred to therein (together with the exhibits thereto, the “Existing Commitment Letter”). Each of the parties hereto agrees to amend and restate the Existing Commitment Letter as follows.

On January 19, 2012 (the “Petition Date”), Eastman Kodak Company (“you” or the “Borrower”) and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Debtors” and each a “Debtor”) filed voluntary petitions for relief under Chapter 11 of Title 11 of the United States Code, 11 U.S.C. §§ 101 et seq. (as amended, the “Bankruptcy Code”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). In connection with the foregoing, you have requested that the parties listed on Schedule I hereto (the “Lead Lenders”, “us”, “we” or the “Commitment Parties”), agree to structure and arrange a junior secured priming superpriority debtor-in-possession term loan facility (the “Junior DIP Facility”) in an aggregate amount of up to $830,000,000 under Sections 364(c)(1), (2) and (3) and (d)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code, consisting of (i) first lien term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $455,000,000 of new money (such loans, the “New Money Loans”) and (ii) junior lien term loans in the aggregate principal amount of up to $375,000,000 consisting of a dollar-for-dollar “roll-up” (such loans, the “Rolled-Up Loans”) for amounts outstanding under the Borrower’s (x) 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due March 15, 2019 issued under or in connection with that certain Indenture dated as of March 15, 2011 and (y) 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due March 1, 2018 issued under or in connection with that certain Indenture dated as of March 5, 2010 (collectively, and as amended prior to the Petition Date, the “Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes”) and the Commitment Parties commit to backstop the entire amount of the Junior DIP Facility. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein are used with the meanings assigned to them on the Exhibit A attached hereto (such Exhibit, together with this letter, collectively, this “A&R Commitment Letter”).


1. Commitment

In connection with the foregoing, the Commitment Parties are pleased to advise you of their commitment to provide the New Money Loans, on a several and not joint basis, in the amounts set forth opposite each such Commitment Party’s name on Schedule I hereto (the “Commitments”) upon the terms and conditions set forth in this letter and Exhibit A hereto (the “Term Sheet”) (or as otherwise agreed in writing to by the Borrower and the Commitment Parties). The Commitment Parties’ Commitments hereunder shall be reduced (pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Term Sheet) in an aggregate amount equal to any commitment allocated to holders (other than the Commitment Parties) of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes (“Other Pre-Petition Second Lien Noteholders”). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any Other Pre-Petition Second Lien Noteholder fails to fund any portion of its commitment on the Closing Date, then the Commitment Parties shall fund such amount on the Closing Date as if there were no reductions in the respective commitment amounts set forth above as a result of the commitment allocated to such Other Pre-Petition Second Lien Noteholder.

 

2. Titles and Roles

You hereby appoint Wilmington Trust, National Association (the “Agent” or “Wilmington Trust”) to act, and Wilmington Trust hereby agrees to act, as sole administrative agent and sole collateral agent for the Junior DIP Facility, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this A&R Commitment Letter. You agree that no agents, co-agents, arrangers, co-arrangers, bookrunners, co-bookrunners, managers or co-managers will be appointed, no titles will be awarded and no compensation (other than that expressly contemplated by the Term Sheet and the Fee Letter referred to below) will be paid in connection with the Junior DIP Facility unless you and we shall so reasonably agree (it being understood and agreed that no agent, co-agent, arranger, co-arranger, bookrunner, co-bookrunner, manager or co-manager shall be entitled to greater economics in respect of the Junior DIP Facility than the Commitment Parties).

 

3. Information

You hereby represent and warrant that (a) all information, other than the Projections (as defined below), other forward looking information and information of a general economic or industry specific nature (the “Information”), that has been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, when taken as a whole, does not or will not, when furnished to us, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading in light of the circumstances under which such statements are made (giving effect to all supplements thereto) and (b) the financial projections and other forward-looking information (the “Projections”) that have been or will be made available to us by you or any of your representatives in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby have been or will be prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by you to be reasonable at the time furnished to us. It is understood and agreed that (i) the Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts, (ii) the Projections are subject to significant

 

2


uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond your control, (iii) no assurance can be given that any particular Projection will be realized and (iv) actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ significantly from the projected results and such differences may be material. You agree that if, at any time prior to the Closing Date, you become aware that any of the representations in the preceding sentence would be incorrect if the same was remade, in any material respect, then you will promptly supplement the Information and the Projections so that such representations when remade would be correct, in all material respects, under those circumstances.

$830,000,000

Junior Debtor-in-Possession Term Loan Facility

Summary of Terms and Conditions

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Commitment Letter to which this Term Sheet is attached.

 

I. JUNIOR DIP FACILITY

 

Borrower:    Eastman Kodak Company (the “Borrower”)
Guarantors:    All obligations of the Borrower (collectively, the “Obligations”) in respect of the Junior DIP Facility will be unconditionally guaranteed by each direct and indirect domestic subsidiary of the Borrower that is a debtor and debtor in possession in the jointly administered chapter 11 cases (the “Cases”) pending in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”) (including the Borrower collectively, the “Debtors”).
Administrative Agent:    Wilmington Trust, National Association (in such capacity, the “Junior DIP Agent”)
Collateral Agent:    The Junior DIP Agent.
Lenders:    All holders of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes, including the Lead Lenders, shall be provided the opportunity to subscribe as Lenders and fund the New Money Loans (as defined below) (the “New Money Commitments”) pursuant to procedures consistent with this Term Sheet and reasonably acceptable to Lead Lenders holding a majority in principal amount of the Commitments on the date hereof (the “Required Lead Lenders”) and the Borrower, including procedures allowing for affiliated holders of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes (as defined below) to allocate New Money Commitments and Rolled-Up Loans (as defined below) among themselves in a manner that is consistent with the principles outlined below (the “Procedures”); provided, however, that, in any event, all Lead Lenders shall be offered an allocation of New Money Commitments and Rolled-Up Loans on the same basis. The Required Lead Lenders agree that the procedures set forth in the “Debtor’s Motion for an Order Authorizing (A) Procedures for the Solicitation of Second Lien Noteholders to Participate in the Proposed Supplement Postpetition Financing and (B) the Conduct of the Solicitation” (the “Procedures Motion”) filed with the Bankruptcy Court on December 6, 2012, are acceptable to the Lead Lenders, it being understood that any procedures adopted by the Borrower for the conduct of the solicitation not expressly set forth in the Procedures Motion must be reasonably acceptable to the Required Lead Lenders in accordance with the first sentence of this paragraph.


EXHIBIT A

 

  Each holder of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes, including the Lead Lenders, shall be permitted to subscribe for New Money Commitments in an amount up to the principal amount of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes it holds as of the last date specified by the Borrower for the submission of subscriptions in accordance with the Procedures (the “Record Date”) (such initial New Money Commitment allocations, the “Initial Commitment Amounts” and, any holder of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes who subscribes for an Initial Commitment Amount, an “Initial Participating Holder”).1 To the extent that the Initial Commitment Amounts equals or exceeds $455,000,000, the New Money Commitments will be allocated to each Initial Participating Holder ratably based on its Initial Commitment Amount. At the time of such subscription, each Initial Participating Holder may also elect to provide additional New Money Commitments to the extent that the Initial Commitment Amounts aggregate to less than $455,000,000 (the difference between $455,000,000 and the total Initial Commitment Amounts, the “Shortfall Amount”), up to an amount designated by such Initial Participating Holder to cover the Shortfall Amount (any such designated amount, an “Additional Commitment” and, any Initial Participating Holder with an Additional Commitment, a “Secondary Backstop Party”). The decision of each holder of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes as to whether to provide an Initial Commitment or Additional Commitment will be made at the time it chooses to submit (or not submit) a valid Letter of Transmittal in accordance with the Procedures. The Shortfall Amount shall be allocated to each Secondary Backstop Party ratably based on the principal amount of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes it holds as of the Record Date (but not to exceed its Additional Commitment) in a manner consistent with Annex III; provided that, in the event that the New Money Loans are not fully subscribed for after completion of such procedure, each Lead Lender, who has been allocated New Money Commitments in an amount less than their Commitment, shall be deemed to have made New Money Commitments and shall provide additional New Money Loans pursuant to the terms of their Commitments set forth in the Commitment Letter in order to provide the Borrower the full amount of New Money Loans contemplated by this Term Sheet.
  In consideration for funding New Money Loans, each Lender shall be permitted to roll-up obligations under its Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes into Rolled-Up Loans. The aggregate amount of Rolled-Up Loans will be no greater than $375,000,000 (determined in a manner consistent with the illustrative scenarios set forth on Annex III), which shall be allocated to each Lender on a pro rata basis based on New Money Loans funded

 

1 

For the avoidance of doubt, any Lead Lender who is an Initial Participating Holder shall be permitted to subscribe for an Initial Commitment Amount equal to such Lead Lender’s principal amount of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes as of the Record Date, regardless of whether such principal amount is less than or greater to the principal amount of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes it owns as of the date hereof.

 

2


EXHIBIT A

 

   (but not to exceed the principal amount of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes it holds on the Record Date) in a manner consistent with Annex III. For greater clarity, the aggregate amount of Rolled-Up Loans and the allocation of Rolled-Up Loans at various levels of participation by holders of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes in the New Money Loans are set forth on Annex III.
Type, Amount and Maturity:    A junior term loan facility (the “Junior DIP Facility”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $830,000,000, consisting of (i) first lien term loans in the aggregate principal amount of $455,000,000 of new money (the “New Money Loans”) and (ii) junior lien term loans (such loans, the “Rolled-Up Loans”; together with the New Money Loans, the “Loans”) in the aggregate principal amount of up to $375,000,000 issued to the Lenders in exchange for amounts outstanding due the Lenders under the Borrower’s (i) 10.625% Senior Secured Notes due March 15, 2019 issued under or in connection with that certain Indenture dated as of March 15, 2011 and (ii) 9.75% Senior Secured Notes due March 1, 2018 issued under or in connection with that certain Indenture dated as of March 5, 2010 (collectively, and as amended prior to the Petition Date, the “Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes”).
   The Junior DIP Facility will mature and shall be paid in full in cash on the date (the “Maturity Date”) that is the earliest to occur of (i) September 30, 2013, (ii) the effective date (the “Effective Date”) of the chapter 11 plan for the reorganization of the Borrower (the “Chapter 11 Plan”), to the extent amounts outstanding under the Junior DIP Facility are not converted into exit term loans as described below, and (iii) the acceleration of the Loans in accordance with the Definitive Financing Documentation.
   Notwithstanding anything in the immediately preceding paragraph to the contrary, the Junior DIP Facility may be converted into an exit facility with a maturity date that is the date that is five (5) years from the Maturity Date provided that (i) the Borrower shall be in compliance as of the Effective Date with the financial tests set forth on Annex I attached hereto, (ii) the Effective Date shall have occurred no later than September 30, 2013 pursuant to an order the terms of which that are material to their interests as lenders under the Junior DIP Facility are reasonably acceptable to counsel to the Lead Lenders, (which order be in full force and effect and shall not have been reversed, vacated or modified or stayed), provided that terms of the final order that are substantially consistent with parameters to be set forth in the Definitive Financing Documentation shall be deemed to be reasonably acceptable, (iii) no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the Junior DIP Facility (on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the consummation of the Chapter 11 Plan), (iv) there shall have occurred the sale or disposition, in whole or in part, of any combination of (A) the assets and businesses to be sold in the transaction assigned the code name “Rockford”, (B) the assets and businesses to be sold in the transaction assigned the code name “Walden” and/or (C) trademarks, trademark licenses, domain names and related intellectual property assets

  “Material Adverse Effect” shall be defined as an event or occurrence that has had a material adverse effect, or any event or occurrence which could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect, on (A) the business, properties, financial condition, results of operations or liabilities of the Borrower and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, other than any change, event or occurrence, arising individually or in the aggregate, from (i) events leading up to the commencement of proceedings under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, (ii) events that would reasonably be expected to result from the filing or commencement of the Cases or the announcement of the filing or commencement of the Cases, (iii) the failure to obtain an aggregate gross cash purchase price in excess of the Minimum Proceeds Amount for the Specified Sale or (iv) the DIP Order (as defined below) or the order entered by the Bankruptcy Court approving the Commitment Letter (including, in each case, taking any actions required by such orders) or actions required to be taken under the terms of the Junior DIP Facility or Exit Facility, including in respect to any changes to the corporate governance of the Borrower, (B) the ability of the Borrower or the guarantors to perform their respective obligations under the loan agreement, guarantees and security documents relating to the facilities (the “Loan Documents”) or (C) the ability of the Junior DIP Agent, the Collateral Agent and/or the Lenders to enforce their rights and remedies under the Loan Documents.
  The following terms will apply to the exit term loans: (1) there will be no OID or other fees payable in connection with conversion of the Junior DIP Facility into the exit term facility other than as set forth above, (2)

EXHIBIT A

 

   the exit term loans will be tranched as follows:2 (a) a first lien term loan tranche of $260.1 million (or $278.7 million if the put option premium described below is paid in the form of additional New Money Loans) that will bear interest, at the Company’s option (which may be exercised on each interest payment date), at the rate of (i) L+11.5% payable in cash, or (ii) L+12.5%, of which, at the Company’s option, up to 300 basis points is payable in the form of additional first lien term loans, with a Libor floor of 100 basis points and (b) a second lien term loan tranche of $375 million that will bear interest, the Company’s option (which may be exercised on each interest payment date), at the rate of (i) L+14.00% payable in cash, or (ii) L+15.0%, of which, at the Company’s option, up to 300 basis points is payable in additional second lien term loans, with a Libor floor of 100 basis points, (3) call protection of 102% and 101% will apply to any principal amount of exit term loans voluntarily repaid, in whole or in part, in years one and two, respectively, of the exit term facility, with the proceeds of a refinancing (including a repricing transaction under the Definitive Financing Documentation), (4) the covenants (including reporting requirements), events of default and other terms in the Junior DIP Facility will contain adjustments (to be set forth in the Definitive Financing Documentation) as appropriate for an exit term facility that apply upon conversion (the covenants will be based on projections that are substantially similar to the projections provided to the Lead Lenders as of the date hereof) and (5) the exit term loans shall be guaranteed by the same entities guaranteeing the Junior DIP Facility and secured by the same collateral securing the Junior DIP Facility.
Liens/Priority:    Subject to the Carve-Out (substantially similar, to the extent applicable, to that defined in the Existing DIP Order (as defined below) but to include additional references to AP Services, LLC, advisors to the 1114 Committee, the fee examiner and any other advisors to be agreed (and their successors and replacements), and to provide for a higher amount as may be agreed), the Junior DIP Facility shall be secured by first, second and third priority postpetition liens on all the “Collateral” (as defined in the Final Order (I) Authorizing Debtors (A) To Obtain Post-Petition Financing Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 105, 361, 362, 364(c)(1), 364(c)(2), 364(c)(3), 364(d)(1) and 364(e) and (B) To Utilize Cash Collateral Pursuant To 11 U.S.C. §363 and (II) Granting Adequate Protection To Pre-Petition Secured Parties Pursuant To 11 U.S.C. §§ 361, 362, 363 and 364 [Docket No. 375] (the “Existing DIP Order”) securing the $950,000,000 debtor in possession financing facility (the “Existing DIP Facility”) and 65% of the equity interests of material “first-tier” foreign subsidiaries of the Borrower subject to any exceptions that may be

5


EXHIBIT A

 

   acceptable to the Required Lead Lenders3 (such liens securing the Junior DIP Facility, the “Junior DIP Liens” and the related collateral, the “Junior DIP Collateral”). The Junior DIP Liens shall prime the liens securing the Borrower’s outstanding obligations under the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes that are not Rolled-Up Loans (the “Outstanding Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes”) and liens securing any obligations under the Borrower’s pre-petition first lien credit facility. All obligations under the Junior DIP Facility shall constitute allowed superpriority administrative expense claims with priority under section 364(c)(1) of the Bankruptcy Code over all other administrative expense claims in the Cases, subject to the Carve-Out, junior only to the superpriority administrative expense claims under the Existing DIP Order in favor of the Existing DIP Facility; provided, that the Junior DIP Liens in respect of the Rolled-Up Loans shall be junior in priority to the liens securing the Existing DIP Facility; provided, further, however, that the obligations under the Junior DIP Facility including the Rolled-Up Loans need not be paid in cash on the effective date of a Chapter 11 Plan if the Junior DIP Facility is converted to an exit facility on the conditions described above.

Intercreditor Agreement:

   Intercreditor arrangements between Citicorp North America, Inc., in its capacity as administrative and collateral agent for the lenders under the Existing DIP Facility, and the Junior DIP Agent shall be agreed and set forth in an intercreditor agreement and confirmed in the DIP Order (as defined below), each of which shall be in form, substance and scope reasonably satisfactory to the Lead Lenders and Citicorp North America, Inc.

Adequate Protection:

   As a result of the priming of their liens and use of their cash collateral, holders of Outstanding Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes will be entitled to receive as additional adequate protection (i) replacement liens on Junior DIP Collateral that are junior to the liens securing the Existing DIP Facility and the Junior DIP Facility, (ii) guarantees from all entities that guarantee the Existing DIP Facility and Junior DIP Facility that are subordinate to the guarantee in respect of the Existing DIP Facility and Junior DIP Facility, (iii) administrative claims as provided for in section 507(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, junior to the superpriority administrative expense claims granted to the lenders under the Existing DIP Facility and the Lenders (in each case of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), to the extent of any diminution of the value of the applicable pre-petition collateral from and after the Petition Date), (iv) the payment at or following the Closing Date of an amount equal to accrued interest at the non-default rate (both pre-petition and post-petition) through the Closing Date (which shall be paid with respect to all Pre-petition Second Lien Notes immediately prior to giving effect to any roll-up into Roll-Up Loans) and thereafter in

 

 

3 

The parties acknowledge and agree that the Borrower shall be entitled to provide similar pledges to lenders under the Existing DIP Facility, consistent with the relative priorities for security for pledges of shares of foreign subsidiaries for the Existing DIP Facility as between the revolving and term loan facilities.

 

6


EXHIBIT A

 

   amounts equal to current non-default interest on the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes, and (v) the payment of reasonable and documented fees and expenses incurred by UK counsel retained by either the trustee with respect to the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes and/or the ad hoc committee of holders of the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes represented by Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP. All lenders participating in the Junior DIP Facility will consent to the sufficiency of such adequate protection in connection with the approval of the Junior DIP Facility.4
Credit Bidding:    Subject to the requirements of the Intercreditor Agreement, the lenders holding the New Money Loans shall have the right to credit bid up to $200 million of their New Money Loans in connection with a Specified Sale. To the extent that lenders holding the New Money Loans are the winning bidders for any portion of such assets, the amount of any credit bid shall be deemed to be cash purchase price for determining the Minimum Proceeds Amount.
Availability and Use of Proceeds:   

 

All of the New Money Loans and the Rolled-Up Loans shall be available on the Closing Date.

 

Proceeds of Loans to be used to (i) refinance the term loans outstanding under the Existing DIP Facility,5 (ii) fund working capital requirements described in the Budget (as defined below), (iii) fund adequate protection payments in respect of the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes contemplated herein, or make payments to other creditors to the extent permitted by the Definitive Financing Documentation, and (iv) fund settlement payments (if any) in respect of the UK Pension Scheme to the extent such settlement is reasonably satisfactory to the Required Lead Lenders.

Interest Rates:    New Money Loans: The New Money Loans shall bear interest at the rate of L+ 10.5% per annum, with a Libor floor of 100 bps.
   Rolled-Up Loans: The Rolled-Up Loans shall bear interest at a rate per annum, payable in cash, equal to applicable non default rate on the Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes that are subject to the roll up.

 

 

 

4  For the avoidance of doubt, any currently existing adequate protection set forth in the Existing DIP Order will continue in favor of the holders of Outstanding Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes and the trustee with respect to the Outstanding Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes other than to the extent necessary to give full effect to the terms specifically agreed to in this Term Sheet.
5  Upon the refinancing of the term loans outstanding under the Existing DIP Facility, (i) the New Money Loans will have a first lien on the Term Facility Collateral (as defined in the credit agreement for the Existing DIP Facility), (ii) the New Money Loans will have a second lien on the Revolving Credit Facility Collateral (as defined in the credit agreement for the Existing DIP Facility) and (iii) the Rolled-Up Loans will have third lien on both the Term Facility Collateral and Revolving Credit Facility Collateral. For the avoidance of doubt, these lien priorities shall apply both before and after effectiveness of a Chapter 11 Plan.

 

7


EXHIBIT A

 

   After the occurrence and during the continuance of a payment6 event of default, interest on all Loans and all other outstanding amounts under the Definitive Financing Documentation (as defined below) will bear interest at a rate equal to 2.0% per annum plus the otherwise applicable rate.
Put Option Premium:    At the Borrower’s option, a put option premium in an amount equal to (x) 3% of the Commitments held by each Lead Lender on the date hereof, which shall be earned upon the date hereof and shall be payable in cash to each Lead Lender on the Closing Date or (y) 4% of the Commitments held by each Lead Lender on the date hereof, which shall be earned upon the date hereof and shall be payable in the form of additional New Money Loans issued to each Lead Lender on the Closing Date (and the additional New Money Loans shall be permitted to be converted to exit term loans on the same terms as the other New Money Loans).
Original Issue Discount:    With respect to the New Money Loans only, 99.0%.
Prepayments:   

Voluntary: Prepayments under the Junior DIP Facility may be made at any time without premium or penalty (other than breakage costs to the extent applicable) except as set forth below.

 

Voluntary prepayments of the exit term loans, in whole or in part, with the proceeds of a refinancing (including a repricing transaction under the Definitive Financing Documentation) shall be at par plus accrued interest plus a premium. The premium shall initially be 2% of the aggregate principal amount prepaid, from and after the first anniversary of the Effective Date to the second anniversary thereof, shall be 1% and, from and after the second anniversary of the Effective Date, shall be 0%.

 

Voluntary prepayments will be applied first to the payment in full of the New Money Loans prior to being applied to prepay the Rolled-Up Loans.

 

Mandatory:

 

Mandatory prepayments will be limited to the following: (i) 100% of the net cash proceeds from debt issuances other than permitted debt, (ii) 100% of the net cash proceeds of insurance/condemnation and other extraordinary events, subject to reinvestment rights to be agreed and other customary exceptions and (iii) 80% of the net cash proceeds of asset sales up to $20 million, and 100% of the net cash proceeds of asset sales above $20 million (other than (i) the Specified Sale and (ii) assets over which the lenders under the ABL facility have a first priority lien to the extent such net cash proceeds are required to be applied thereunder), that are allocated and paid to the Debtors’ estates (provided that (A) the

 

 

6  It is understood that on and after the Effective Date, the default interest rate will apply after the occurrence and during the continuance of any event of default.

 

8


EXHIBIT A

 

   Debtors shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that net cash proceeds of asset sales are allocated and paid to the Borrower or its U.S. guarantor subsidiaries as promptly as practicable and to the maximum extent possible and such net cash proceeds will be applied to the prepayment of the Junior DIP Facility at such time that they are allocated and paid to the Borrower or its U.S. guarantor subsidiaries and (B) to the extent that (I) an asset sale involves the sale of collateral securing the Junior DIP Facility or the sale of stock or assets held directly or indirectly by an entity the shares of which have been pledged to the lenders as collateral (other than shares of or assets held by a foreign subsidiary that is not a guarantor) and (II) the percentage of net cash proceeds of such asset or stock sale that is allocated and paid to the Borrower and its guarantor subsidiaries is less than a threshold to be agreed and the total amount of net cash proceeds of the sale exceeds an amount to be agreed, the method of allocation of the net cash proceeds of such an asset or stock sale shall be reasonably acceptable to the Required Lead Lenders), subject to limited customary exceptions, to the prepayment of the Junior DIP Facility.

As shown in the table above, by participating at the same Funding-to-Holdings Ratio as the Lead Lenders, the ratio of Pre-Petition Second Lien Notes rolled-up to Principal Holdings (the “Rolled-Up Ratio”) for the Outside Participants is equal to the highest Rolled-Up Ratio among the Lead Lenders, in this case 87.9%.

Kodak and Lenders Finalize Terms of Interim and Exit Financing

Agreement amends certain terms, giving Kodak additional flexibility

ROCHESTER, N.Y., Mar. 1 – Kodak today announced that it has reached an agreement with the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders to amend the terms for the previously-announced interim and exit financing package. The amendments provide Kodak with additional flexibility to successfully execute its reorganization objectives and emerge from Chapter 11 in mid-2013.

“We are establishing a clear path for our emergence as a stronger, focused Commercial Imaging company,” said Antonio M. Perez, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “As we move toward finalizing our Plan of Reorganization, we are pleased to have reached an agreement with our lenders that gives Kodak additional financial flexibility in how we reach our ultimate goal of a successful emergence with a sustainable business model.”

As part of the agreement, certain terms of the financing have been amended. Kodak now is committed to achieving at least $600 million in cash proceeds through the disposition of any combination of specified non-Commercial Imaging assets, which include its Document Imaging and Personalized Imaging businesses, and trademarks and related rights. Additionally, in anticipation of a Plan of Reorganization to be filed by the company in April 2013, Kodak, along with the Steering Committee of the Second Lien Noteholders and the Unsecured Creditors Committee, will jointly hire a search firm to begin identifying potential new directors for the Board of Directors who will lead the reorganized Kodak following emergence. The existing Board also expects to appoint an additional independent director following closing of the financing. This director would be available to continue to serve on the Board following Kodak’s emergence.

Kodak anticipates closing the financing in mid to late March, subject to the prior approval of the Bankruptcy Court.
