The Additional Facility bears interest at a variable rate equal to WIBOR for the relevant interest period plus margin. The margin on the Additional Facility depends on the ratio of net consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA in such a way that the lower the ratio – the lower the margin, with the maximum margin level applicable when the net consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA ratio exceeds 3.50:1, and the minimum margin level applicable when that ratio is no higher than 1.50:1. The final repayment term for the Additional Facility is March 31, 2023. The Additional Facility will be repaid in one bullet installment on the final repayment date.

The receivables arising under the Additional Facility are secured by the same package of security interests and guarantees extended by some of the Company’s group members as granted under the Facilities Agreement.
