ITEM 1.01.

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On
April 24, 2020, Performance Food Group, Inc. (the
“Issuer”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Performance Food Group Company
(
“PFG”), issued and sold $275 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% Senior Notes due 2025 (the
“Notes”), which mature on
May 1, 2025, pursuant to an
indenture dated as of
April 24, 2020, by and between the Issuer, the guarantors party
thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. The Notes were sold within the United States only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
“Securities Act”), and outside the
United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
PFG intends to use the net proceeds of the offering for working capital and general corporate purposes and to pay related fees and
expenses.
The Notes were issued at 100.0% of their par value. The Notes bear interest at a rate of 6.875% per year, payable semi-annually in arrears.
The Notes are and will be guaranteed by PFGC, Inc. (
“PFGC”) and all of the Issuer’s existing and future material wholly-owned domestic restricted
subsidiaries, to the extent such
subsidiaries guarantee indebtedness under the Issuer’s asset-based
lending facility, the Issuer’s other capital markets debt securities or certain of the Issuer’s other indebtedness incurred under credit facilities. The Notes are not, and will not be, guaranteed by PFG.
Upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event or upon the sale of certain assets in which the Issuer does not apply the
proceeds as required, the holders of the Notes will have the right to require the Issuer to make an offer to repurchase each holder’s Notes at a price equal to 101% (in the case of a change of control triggering event) or 100% (in the case of an
asset sale) of their principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the repurchase date.
At any time prior to
May 1, 2022, the Issuer may redeem all or a part of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Notes being redeemed plus a make-whole premium and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date. The Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at any time on or after
May 1, 2022 at redemption
prices equal to 103.438%, 101.719% and 100.000% of the principal amount of the Notes redeemed if the redemption occurs during the twelve-month periods beginning on May 1 of the years 2022, 2023 and 2024, respectively, in each case plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but not including, the applicable redemption date. In addition, prior to
May 1, 2022, the Issuer may redeem up to 40% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes at a redemption price equal to 106.875% of the
aggregate principal amount of the Notes redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the redemption date, with the net cash proceeds the Issuer receives from one or more qualifying equity offerings.
The Notes contain covenants that limit PFGC and its restricted
subsidiaries’ ability to incur or guarantee additional debt or issue
disqualified stock or preferred stock; pay dividends and make other distributions on, or redeem or repurchase, capital stock; make certain investments; incur certain liens; enter into transactions with affiliates; consolidate, merge, sell or
otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets; create certain restrictions on the ability of PFGC’s restricted
subsidiaries to make dividends or other payments to PFGC; designate restricted
subsidiaries as unrestricted
subsidiaries; and
transfer or sell certain assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important exceptions and qualifications. The Notes also provide for certain customary events of default which, if any of them occurs, would permit or require the principal of
and accrued interest on the Notes to become or be declared due and payable.
