Item 1.01. Entry into Material Definitive Agreements.

9.250% Senior Secured Notes due 2023

General

On the Closing Date, Parent and Prime Finance Inc. (the “Co-Issuer” and, together with Parent, the “Issuers”) successfully completed the offering of $3,140,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 9.250% Second-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2023 (the “Second Lien Notes”). The Second Lien Notes were offered and sold to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act and to certain accredited investors as defined under Regulation D under the Securities Act. The Second Lien Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration requirements or a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

On the Closing Date, upon the completion of the Merger, the Registrant and certain subsidiaries of the Registrant (the “ADT Subsidiaries”) entered into a Supplemental Indenture to the Indenture, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Second Lien Notes Indenture”), by and among the Issuers, certain subsidiaries of Parent, as guarantors (the “Prime Guarantors” and, together with the Registrant and the ADT Subsidiaries, the “Guarantors”) and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee and collateral agent, whereby the Registrant and the ADT Subsidiaries agreed to guarantee and secure the obligations under the Second Lien Notes and the Second Lien Notes Indenture as further described below. The Issuers’ obligations under the Second Lien Notes and the Second Lien Notes Indenture are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured second-priority basis, by each of Parent’s existing domestic subsidiaries that guarantees its First Lien Credit Facilities (as defined below), including the Registrant and the ADT Subsidiaries following the closing of the Merger, and by each of its future domestic subsidiaries that guarantees certain of its debt or issues disqualified stock. The Second Lien Notes and the related guarantees are secured by second-priority security interests in the collateral owned by each Issuer and Guarantor, subject to certain permitted liens and exceptions as further described in the Second Lien Notes Indenture and the related security documents. The collateral consists of substantially all of the Issuers’ and the Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets securing Parent’s First Lien Credit Facilities, which exclude certain capital stock and other securities of its affiliates and other property.

Maturity and Interest Payments

The Second Lien Notes will mature on May 15, 2023. Interest on the Second Lien Notes will accrue at 9.250% per annum and will be paid semi-annually, in arrears, on May 15 and November 15 of each year, beginning November 15, 2016.

Redemption

On or after May 15, 2019, the Issuers may redeem the Second Lien Notes at their option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at the redemption prices set forth in the Second Lien Notes Indenture. In addition, prior to May 15, 2019, the Issuers may redeem the Second Lien Notes at their option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Second Lien Notes redeemed, plus a “make-whole” premium and accrued and unpaid interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time and from time to time on or prior to May 15, 2019, the Issuers may redeem in the aggregate up to 40% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) in an aggregate amount equal to the net cash proceeds of one or more equity offerings at a redemption price equal to 109.250%, plus accrued and unpaid interest, so long as at least 50% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Second Lien Notes (calculated after giving effect to any issuance of additional notes) must remain outstanding after each such redemption.

Certain Covenants

The Second Lien Notes Indenture contains covenants that limit the Issuers’ (and most of their subsidiaries’) ability to, among other things: (i) incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares; (ii) make dividend payments on or make other distributions in respect of their capital stock or make other restricted payments; (iii) make certain investments; (iv) sell certain assets; (v) create or permit to exist dividend and/or payment restrictions affecting their restricted subsidiaries; (vi) create liens on assets; (vii) consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of their assets; and (viii) enter into certain transactions with their affiliates. These covenants are subject to a number of limitations and exceptions. Additionally, upon the occurrence of specified change of control events, the Issuers must offer to repurchase the Second Lien Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the purchase date. The Second Lien Notes Indenture also provides for customary events of default.

4.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2032

General

On the Closing Date, Merger Sub successfully completed its previously announced offer to exchange (the “Exchange Offer”) new 4.875% First-Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2032 (the “Exchange Notes”) for outstanding 4.875% Notes due 2042 of the Registrant held by qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act, persons outside of the United States in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities Act and accredited investors as defined under Regulation D under the Securities Act. Merger Sub issued

Following the completion of the Exchange Offer, $31,680,000 aggregate principal amount of the Registrant’s 4.875% Notes due 2042 remained outstanding as of the Closing Date. The Exchange Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent an effective registration statement or an applicable exemption from registration requirements or a transaction not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act or any state securities laws.

On the Closing Date, upon the completion of the Merger, the Registrant, the ADT Subsidiaries, Parent, the Co-Issuer and the Prime Guarantors entered into a Supplemental Indenture to the Indenture, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Exchange Notes Indenture”), by and between Merger Sub and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Exchange Notes Trustee”), whereby the Registrant assumed Merger Sub’s obligations under the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Notes Indenture, and the ADT Subsidiaries, Parent, the Co-Issuer and the Prime Guarantors (collectively, the “Exchange Notes Guarantors”) agreed to guarantee and secure the obligations under Exchange Notes and the Exchange Notes Indenture as further described below. The Registrant’s obligations under the Exchange Notes and the Exchange Notes Indenture are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured first-priority basis, by each of Parent’s existing domestic subsidiaries that guarantees its First Lien Credit Facilities (including the ADT Subsidiaries but excluding the Registrant, the successor issuer of the Exchange Notes following the Merger), and by each of its future domestic subsidiaries that guarantees certain of its debt or issues disqualified stock. The Exchange Notes and the related guarantees are secured by first-priority security interests in the collateral owned by the Registrant and each Exchange Notes Guarantor, subject to certain permitted liens and exceptions as further described in the Exchange Notes Indenture and the related security documents. The collateral consists of substantially all of the Registrant’s and the Exchange Notes Guarantors’ tangible and intangible assets securing Parent’s First Lien Credit Facilities, which exclude certain capital stock and other securities of its affiliates and other property.

Certain Covenants

The Exchange Notes Indenture contains covenants that limit the Registrant’s ability to, among other things: (i) incur certain liens; (2) enter into sale leaseback transactions; (3) permit certain change of control transactions; and (4) consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. Additionally, upon the occurrence of specified change of control events, the Registrant must offer to repurchase the Exchange Notes at 101% of the principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but not including, the purchase date. The Exchange Notes Indenture also provides for customary events of default.
