STX Seagate Technology Holdings PLC

On September 16, 2019, Seagate Technology public limited company (the “Company”) and its subsidiary Seagate HDD Cayman (the “Borrower”) entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of February 20, 2019, by and among the Company, the Borrower, the lenders party thereto, and The Bank of Nova Scotia, as administrative agent (as amended from time to time, the “Existing Credit Agreement” and as amended by the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”). The Amendment provides for a new term loan facility in the aggregate principal amount of up to $500,000,000 (“Term Loan”). The Term Loan may be drawn on in one or more borrowings at any time prior to December 15, 2019. In order to borrow under the Term Loan the Borrower must certify that it has repurchased, has irrevocably tendered for and repurchased, or concurrently with the making of such Term Loan will irrevocably accept tenders of and repurchase a portion of each or any of its outstanding Notes (as defined below). The Term Loan is repayable in quarterly installments beginning on December 31, 2020 and is scheduled to mature on September 16, 2025. The Term Loan will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus a variable margin that will be determined based on the corporate credit rating of the Borrower or one of its parent entities. The Term Loan is guaranteed by the same guarantors (“Guarantors”) that guarantee the Existing Credit Agreement. The other material terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged. In accordance with certain financial covenants in the indentures under which the Borrower issued each of its outstanding Senior Notes (including the Notes), the Borrower may not be able, from time to time, to draw the full amounts available under the Credit Facility unless certain subsidiary Guarantors enter into supplemental indentures for such issued and outstanding Senior Notes. Such subsidiary Guarantors plan to enter into such supplemental indentures.

On September 17, 2019, the Borrower requested borrowings under the Term Loan of $500,000,000 principal amount, the proceeds of which will be used together with cash on hand by the Borrower to make payment for the Notes that were validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in connection with the Offers (as defined below).

Certain of the lenders under the Credit Agreement and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Borrower or its affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
