Any advance by the Lenders to Fox as part of a borrowing under the Revolving Credit Agreement may be available, at Fox’s option, at either (1) the Base Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) which is a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) plus 0.50% or (iii) the Eurodollar Rate (as described below) for a one-month interest period (but not less than zero) plus 1.00% plus (b) the applicable margin for Base Rate advances, or (2) at the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Revolving Credit Agreement) which is a periodic fixed interest rate per annum equal to LIBOR (but not less than zero) plus the applicable margin for Eurodollar Rate advances. The applicable margins for Base Rate advances and Eurodollar Rate advances are based on Fox’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings.

Under the Revolving Credit Agreement, Fox shall pay a facility fee based on Fox’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings.

Fox may terminate, in whole or in part, the unused portion of the credit facility commitments under the Revolving Credit Agreement at any time during the term of the Revolving Credit Agreement. Once terminated, a commitment may not be reinstated.

The Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (each with customary exceptions), including limitations to Fox’s ability to engage in transactions with affiliates, incur liens, engage in certain fundamental changes, incur subsidiary debt, change the nature of its business, and use the proceeds of any borrowing or letter of credit for certain purposes. Additionally, the Revolving Credit Agreement requires Fox to maintain an operating income leverage ratio of 4.5 to 1.0, subject to increase for four quarters in certain situations in connection with material acquisitions.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, one or more of the Lenders, or their affiliates, have or may have various relationships with the Company and its subsidiaries involving the provision of a variety of financial services, including cash management, commercial banking, investment banking, advisory or other financial services, for which they received, or will receive, customary fees and expenses. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries may have entered into or may enter into in the future certain engagements with one or more Lenders or their affiliates relating to specific endeavors.

The foregoing summary of the Revolving Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Revolving Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Bridge Credit Agreement

On March 15, 2019, Fox entered into a 364-Day Bridge Term Loan Agreement (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”) with the initial lenders named therein (the “Bridge Lenders”), Goldman Sachs Bank USA, as Administrative Agent, Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner, and Citibank, N.A. and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., as Co-Syndication Agents. The Bridge Credit Agreement provides for borrowings under a term loan facility of up to $1.7 billion with a maturity date of 364 calendar days following the date on which the Bridge Lenders are required to fund the loans (the “Bridge Closing Date”). The Bridge Credit Agreement is unsecured. The obligations of the Bridge Lenders to fund loans under the Bridge Credit Agreement (the “Commitment Period”) expires on the earlier of June 13, 2020 and the termination of the Amended and Restated Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), dated as of June 20, 2018, among the Company, The Walt Disney Company, TWDC Holdco 613 Corp., WDC Merger Enterprises I, Inc., and WDC Merger Enterprises II, Inc., as may be amended from time to time.

The Bridge Credit Agreement is available to Fox to (a)(i) pay on or about the Bridge Closing Date a portion of the payment of an $8.5 billion cash dividend expected to be paid by Fox to the Company on March 19, 2019 (the “Dividend”) substantially contemporaneously with the expected consummation of the separation of Fox from the Company or to replenish cash used by Fox to pay any portion of the Dividend and (ii) to pay fees and expenses related to the Transactions (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) other than the Disney Acquisition(as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) or to replenish cash used by Fox to pay such fees and expenses and (b) for the general corporate purposes of Fox and its subsidiaries up to $500 million in the aggregate.

Any advance by the Bridge Lenders to Fox as part of a borrowing may be available, at Fox’s option, at either (1) the Base Rate (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) which is a fluctuating interest rate per annum equal to the sum of (a) the highest of (i) the prime rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) plus 0.50% or (iii) the Eurodollar Rate (as described below) for a one-month interest period (but not less than zero) plus 1.00% plus (b) the applicable margin for Base Rate advances, or (2) at the Eurodollar Rate (as defined in the Bridge Credit Agreement) which is a periodic fixed interest rate per annum equal to LIBOR (but not less than zero) plus the applicable margin for Eurodollar Rate advances. The applicable margins for Base Rate advances and Eurodollar Rate advances are based on Fox’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings, and increase by 0.25% every 90 days following the Bridge Closing Date.

Under the Bridge Credit Agreement, beginning on March 15, 2019 and continuing through the date on which the loans are advanced, or the termination of the commitments, Fox shall pay a commitment fee based on Fox’s long-term senior unsecured non-credit enhanced debt ratings multiplied by the aggregate daily amount of unused outstanding commitments. Fox has also agreed to pay a duration fee on each of the 90th, 180th and 270th day after the funding of the loans in an amount equal to 0.50%, 0.75%, and 1.00%, respectively, of the aggregate amount of the advances outstanding at the time.

The Bridge Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants (each with customary exceptions), including limitations to Fox’s ability to engage in transactions with affiliates, incur liens, engage in certain fundamental changes, incur subsidiary debt, change the nature of its business, and use the proceeds of any borrowing for certain purposes. Additionally, the Bridge Credit Agreement requires Fox to maintain an operating income leverage ratio of 4.5 to 1.0, subject to increase for four quarters in certain situations in connection with material acquisitions.

Failure to satisfy the covenants under the Bridge Credit Agreement or the occurrence of other specified events that could constitute an event of default could, among other things, permit the Bridge Lenders thereunder to terminate their commitments or accelerate Fox’s repayment obligations. Borrowings under the Bridge Credit Agreement are subject to mandatory prepayments, and unfunded commitments under the Bridge Credit Agreement are subject to reduction, by or with an amount equal to any proceeds from the incurrence of indebtedness, the issuance of equity, and asset sales outside the ordinary course of business, in each case subject to exclusions, and by or with an amount equal to any “Cash Payment” (as defined in the Merger Agreement) paid to the Borrower in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, one or more of the Bridge Lenders, or their affiliates, have or may have various relationships with the Company or its subsidiaries involving the provision of a variety of financial services, including cash management, commercial banking, investment banking, advisory or other financial services, for which they received, or will receive, customary fees and expenses. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries may have entered into or may enter into in the future certain engagements with one or more Bridge Lenders or their affiliates relating to specific endeavors.

The foregoing summary of the Bridge Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Bridge Credit Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
