Purchase Agreement

On November 6, 2019, Cheniere Corpus Christi Holdings, LLC (“CCH”), an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Cheniere Energy, Inc. (“Cheniere”), and CCH’s subsidiaries Corpus Christi Liquefaction, LLC (“CCL”), Cheniere Corpus Christi Pipeline, L.P. (“CCP”) and Corpus Christi Pipeline GP, LLC (“CCP GP” and together with CCL and CCP, each, a “Guarantor” and collectively, the “Guarantors”), as guarantors, entered into a Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with BofA Securities, Inc. as representative of the initial purchasers named therein (the “Initial Purchasers”) to issue and sell to the Initial Purchasers $1.5 billion aggregate principal amount of its 3.700% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued at a price equal to 99.925% of par to yield 3.709%.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by CCH and the Guarantors and customary conditions to closing and indemnification obligations of CCH and the Guarantors and the Initial Purchasers. The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.

Certain Initial Purchasers and their affiliates have provided in the past, to CCH and its subsidiaries and Cheniere and certain other affiliates of Cheniere, and may provide from time to time in the future, certain commercial banking, financial advisory, investment banking and other services in the ordinary course of their business, for which they have received and may continue to receive customary fees and commissions.

On November 13, 2019 (the “Issue Date”), CCH closed the sale of the Notes pursuant to the Purchase Agreement. The sale of the Notes was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and the Notes were sold on a private placement basis in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act and Rule 144A and Regulation S thereunder.

Indenture

The Notes were issued by CCH on the Issue Date pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of May 18, 2016 (the 2016 Base Indenture”), as supplemented by the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 6, 2019 (the “Third Supplemental Indenture”, and together with the 2016 Base Indenture, the “Base Indenture”), in each case, among CCH, as issuer, CCL, CCP and CCP GP, as guarantors, any other guarantor that may become a party thereto from time to time and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a fourth supplemental indenture, dated as of the Issue Date, among CCH, the Guarantors, any other guarantor that may become a party thereto from time to time and the Trustee, relating to the Notes (the “Fourth Supplemental Indenture”). The Base Indenture as supplemented by the Fourth Supplemental Indenture is referred to herein as the “Indenture.”

Under the terms of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, the Notes will mature on November 15, 2029 and will accrue interest at a rate equal to 3.700% per annum on the principal amount from the Issue Date, with such interest payable semi-annually, in cash in arrears, on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing on May 15, 2020. Any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes at maturity will be paid on the maturity date.

The Notes are senior secured obligations of CCH and rank senior in right of payment to any and all of CCH’s future indebtedness that is subordinated in right of payment to the Notes and equal in right of payment with all of CCH’s existing and future indebtedness (including all loans under CCH’s existing credit facility, all obligations under CCH’s working capital facility and all of CCH’s outstanding senior secured notes) that is senior and secured by the same collateral securing the Notes. The Notes are effectively senior to all of CCH’s senior indebtedness that is unsecured to the extent of the value of the assets constituting the collateral securing the Notes.

As of the Issue Date, the Notes are guaranteed by all of CCH’s existing subsidiaries, consisting of CCL, CCP and CCP GP, and will also be guaranteed by certain of CCH’s future domestic subsidiaries. Such guarantees will be joint and several obligations of such guarantors. The Notes will be secured by a first-priority security interest in substantially all of CCH’s and such guarantors’ assets.

At any time or from time to time prior to May 18, 2029, CCH may redeem all or a part of the Notes, at a redemption price equal to the “make-whole” price set forth in the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. CCH also may at any time on or after May 18, 2029, redeem the Notes, in whole or in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.

The Indenture also contains customary terms and events of default and certain covenants that, among other things, limit CCH’s ability and the ability of CCH’s restricted subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness or issue preferred stock, or pay dividends or distributions on membership interests or subordinated indebtedness or purchase, redeem or retire membership interests, sell or transfer assets, including membership or partnership interests of CCH’s restricted subsidiaries, restrict dividends or other payments by restricted subsidiaries to CCH or any of CCH’s restricted subsidiaries, incur liens, enter into transactions with affiliates, dissolve, liquidate, consolidate, merge, sell or lease all or substantially all of the properties or assets of CCH and its restricted subsidiaries taken as a whole or permit any Guarantor to dissolve, liquidate, consolidate, merge, sell or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets. The Indenture covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions.

The foregoing description of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. The foregoing description of the Indenture is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Indenture, which is incorporated by reference herein. A copy of the 2016 Base Indenture was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by Cheniere on May 18, 2016, and a copy of the Third Supplemental Indenture was filed as Exhibit 4.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by CCH on September 12, 2019.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the closing of the sale of the Notes, CCH, the Guarantors and BofA Securities, Inc., as representative of the respective Initial Purchasers, entered into a Registration Rights Agreement dated the Issue Date (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, CCH and the Guarantors have agreed, and any future guarantors of the Notes will agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to file with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and cause to become effective a registration statement with respect to an offer to exchange any and all of the Notes, for a like aggregate principal amount of debt securities of CCH issued under the Indenture and identical in all material respects to the respective Notes sought to be exchanged (other than with respect to restrictions on transfer or to any increase in annual interest rate), and that are registered under the Securities Act. CCH and the Guarantors have agreed, and any future guarantors of the Notes will agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within 360 days after the Issue Date. Under specified circumstances, CCH and the Guarantors have also agreed, and any future guarantors will also agree, to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to become effective a shelf registration statement relating to resales of the Notes. CCH will be obligated to pay additional interest if it fails to comply with its obligations to register the Notes within the specified time periods.

This description of the Registration Rights Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein.
