© 2015 Winston & Strawn LLP
General Overview

space

• Sponsor desire to match existing terms of portfolio

ABL Deal Specific Terms
• Reserves – creeping past general permitted discretion
• Financial Covenant/Equity Cure – increased frequency of
cure rights
• Cash Dominion Spring – extension of trigger event
• Payment Conditions – creation of sub categories and
combinations within standard requirements

Alternate Approaches to Enhanced Availability
• Eligible equipment or fixed asset components
• Stretch portion on eligible accounts and/or eligible

• Eligible accounts of foreign subsidiaries

LSTA Update
© 2015 Winston & Strawn LLP
LSTA Update
• Model Credit Agreement Provisions
• Disqualified Lender Lists
• LSTA approach generally followed in marketplace
• But with case-by-case negotiated deviations
• DQ list only provided to Agent not lenders
• Assignments to DQed lenders null and void
• Expansion of borrower ability to update list
• LSTA Market Advisory– deviations upset delicate balance

Bankruptcy Update
© 2015 Winston & Strawn LLP
Bankruptcy Update
• In re MPM Silicones, LLC – the worst of all worlds:
• Claim for make-whole payment denied;
• Plan confirmed that provided for below market interest rate to
secured lenders; and,
• Claims against second lienholders for breach of intercreditor
agreement dismissed.
• Unitranche Issues:
• In RadioShack bankruptcy, court interpreted and enforced
Agreement Among Lenders (AAL).
• There was no express ruling as to enforceability of AAL in
bankruptcy, but decision does provide some comfort.
