RAD Rite Aid Corp

Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Receivable Purchase Agreement

On November 12, 2020, Elixir Insurance Company (the “Seller”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Rite Aid Corporation (the “Company”), entered into a receivable purchase agreement (the “Receivable Purchase Agreement”) with Part D Receivable Trust 2020-1 (Series B) (the “Series B Purchaser”), a Delaware statutory trust beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by Bank of America, N.A.

Pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Receivable Purchase Agreement, Series B Purchaser purchased from Seller all of Seller’s right, title and interest in the outstanding amount, as of September 30, 2020, of the 2020 Medicare Part D final reconciliation payment which is anticipated to be paid by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, an agency within the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (“CMS”), to Seller on or about November 1, 2021 (the “Receivable”). As of September 30, 2020, the outstanding amount of the Receivable was $464 million. The Receivable is to be paid by CMS pursuant to a contract, last signature dated as of September 19, 2019, by and between CMS and Seller (the “Contract”). On the closing date, the Company realized net cash proceeds of $412.8 million, which it intends to use to repay borrowings under its revolving credit facility (without a reduction in commitment). Under certain circumstances, as set forth in the Receivable Purchase Agreement, Seller has a right to a purchase price adjustment of up to $32.0 million (the “Deferred Purchase Price”) payable thirty (30) days following remittance to Series B Purchaser of the final payment made by CMS in respect of the Receivable. The book value of the Receivable of $464.0 million less the sum of the Deferred Purchase Price of $32.0 million and the net cash proceeds of $412.8 million resulted in a non-operating loss of $19.2 million that the Company recognized on the sale of the Receivable, which is equivalent to approximately 4.1% of the book value of the Receivable.

The parties to the Receivable Purchase Agreement have each made customary representations and warranties. Seller agreed to various covenants and agreements, including, among others, Seller’s agreement to perform in all material respects all terms, covenants and other provisions required to be performed by it under the Contract and to service the Receivable. The Receivable Purchase Agreement contains specified repurchase rights that would require Seller to repurchase the Receivable upon Series B Purchaser’s request if certain events occur in respect of the Receivable prior to the termination of the Receivable Purchase Agreement.

Indemnity Agreement

On November 12, 2020, to induce Series B Purchaser to enter the Receivable Purchase Agreement, the Company entered into an indemnity agreement (the “Indemnity Agreement”) with Series B Purchaser. Pursuant to the terms set forth in the Indemnity Agreement, the Company has agreed to indemnify, reimburse and hold Series B Purchaser harmless from certain liabilities and expenses actually suffered or incurred by Series B Purchaser resulting from the occurrence of certain events in respect of the Receivable, as specified therein. The Company’s liability under the Indemnity Agreement is capped at Seller’s liability under the Receivable Purchase Agreement plus certain costs and expenses.
