Item
1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On October 22, 2020, United Natural Foods, Inc. (“UNFI” or the “Company”) completed the issuance and sale of $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 6.750% Senior Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”). The Notes were sold in an offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
The Notes were issued under an indenture, dated October 22, 2020, among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors named therein (the
“Subsidiary Guarantors”) and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 6.750% per annum and is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 15 and October 15 of each year, beginning on April 15, 2021. The Notes will mature on October 15, 2028.
On or after October 15, 2023, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes at its option at the following redemption prices, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date if redeemed during the
12-month period beginning on October 15 of the years indicated below:
2025
and thereafter...................................................................................................................................
100.000%
Prior to October 15, 2023, the Company may, on any one or more occasions, redeem some or all of the Notes at its option at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes being redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium equal to the greater of (i) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of such Note and (ii) the excess of (1) the present value at the redemption date of the sum of (A) the redemption price of the Note at October 15, 2023
(which redemption price is set forth in the table above) plus (B) all required interest payments due on the Note through October 15, 2023 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest to the redemption date), such present value to be computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Indenture) as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (2) the then outstanding principal amount of such Note, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date.
In addition, prior to October 15, 2023, the Company may also redeem up to 40% of the Notes using
the net proceeds of certain equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 106.750% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the Notes redeemed to, but excluding, the redemption date.
Upon the occurrence of certain events constituting a change of control (as defined in the Indenture), the Company will be required to make an offer to repurchase all of the outstanding Notes at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase.
The Notes are guaranteed (the “Note Guarantees”) by each of the
Company’s existing and future subsidiaries that are borrowers under or that guarantee the Company’s term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) or asset-based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Credit Facility”). The Notes and the Note Guarantees are the Company’s and the Subsidiary Guarantors’ general unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all of their existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt and senior in right of payment to any of their future subordinated debt. The Notes and the Note Guarantees will be effectively subordinated in right of payment to (i) all indebtedness and other obligations of any subsidiaries
of the Company that do not guarantee the Notes and (ii) all secured indebtedness of the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors to the extent of the value of the assets securing such indebtedness.
The Indenture contains customary covenants for debt securities of this type that limit the ability of the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to, among other things, (i) incur debt, (ii) declare or pay dividends or make other distributions to stockholders
of the Company, (iii) transfer or sell assets, (iv) create liens on their assets, (v) engage in transactions with affiliates, and (vi) merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis.
The Indenture includes customary events of default, including, among other things, payment default, covenant default, payment defaults and accelerations under other indebtedness, judgment defaults and bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization affecting the
Company or certain of its subsidiaries.
This description of the Indenture is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Indenture (including the form of Global Note attached as Exhibit A to the Indenture), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference herein.
The
net proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, were used to repay $500 million of the amounts outstanding under the Term Loan Facility (including accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such amount) and for the payment of all fees and expenses related to the offering of the Notes.
