The term loans are available only for the previously announced Indicor Acquisition, and the filing says the new facilities terminated the $5.0 billion bridge financing commitments in full, so the company is adding borrowing capacity tied to that deal.
Revolving credit commitments increase from $2.3 billion to $3.5 billion, maturing June 9, 2031.
Term loan facility of up to $4.0 billion in three tranches: $1.625 billion due in three years, $1.625 billion due in four years, and $750 million due in five years.
Up to $1.0 billion of revolving loan proceeds may be used toward the Indicor Acquisition consideration and related costs.
The $5.0 billion bridge financing commitments were automatically reduced and terminated in full.
