Item 8.01. | Other Events. |
Mediacom Communications Corporation owns cable systems through two principal subsidiaries, Mediacom LLC and Mediacom Broadband LLC. The operating subsidiaries of Mediacom Broadband have a bank credit facility (the “Broadband credit facility”) that consists of a revolving credit commitment and two term loans. On May 29, 2008, the operating subsidiaries of Mediacom Broadband entered into an incremental facility agreement that provides for a new term loan under the Broadband credit facility in the principal amount of $350.0 million (the “new term loan”). On May 29, 2008, the full amount of the $350.0 million new term loan was borrowed by the operating subsidiaries of Mediacom Broadband.
Borrowings under the new term loan bear interest at a floating rate or rates equal to, at the option of the operating subsidiaries of Mediacom Broadband, the LIBOR rate or the prime rate, plus a margin of 3.50% for LIBOR rate loans and a margin of 2.50% for prime rate loans. For the first four years of the new term loan, the LIBOR rate and the prime rate applicable to the new term loan are subject to a minimum of 3.00% in the case of the LIBOR rate and a minimum of 4.00% in the case of the prime rate. The new term loan matures on January 3, 2016. The obligations of the operating subsidiaries under the new term loan are governed by the terms of the Broadband credit facility.
Approximately $335.0 million of the proceeds from the new term loan were used to repay the outstanding balance of the revolving credit portion of the Broadband credit facility, without any reduction in the revolving credit commitments. The balance of the proceeds from the new term loan will be used for general corporate purposes.
