Amendment to Term Loan Credit Agreement
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2023, on June 30, 2023 Eastman Kodak Company (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”) entered into an amendment (the “Term Loan Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2021, among the Company and certain lenders party thereto (the “Term Loan Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as administrative agent (the “Agent”) (the “Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement” and, as amended and restated by the Term Loan Amendment, the “Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement”), with the Agent and certain lenders party thereto (the “Refinancing Term Loan Lenders”), pursuant to which the Refinancing Term Loan Lenders agreed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to provide term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $450,000,000 (the “Refinancing Term Loans”).
On July 21, 2023, the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement became effective and the Company completed its borrowing of the Refinancing Term Loans. The net proceeds of the Refinancing Term Loans were used to (i) refinance its existing senior secured first lien term loan facility under the Existing Term Loan Agreement (plus any accrued paid-in-kind or unpaid cash interest and any unwaived premium), (ii) repay in full and terminate the commitments under the Company’s asset-based revolving credit facility made available pursuant to the Amended and Restated Senior Asset Based Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2016 (the “Existing ABL Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, Bank of America N.A., as agent, the lenders identified therein and the other agents identified therein, as amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, (iii) repay in full the Company’s outstanding Convertible Promissory Notes held by the Term Loan Lenders, dated as of February 26, 2021 (the “Convertible Notes”), in an aggregate original principal amount of $25,000,000 (plus any accrued paid-in-kind or unpaid cash interest), (iv) pay certain fees and expenses related to the foregoing, (v) provide cash collateral in respect of the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement, as described below, or other collateral obligations, and (vi) thereafter, for general corporate purposes and working capital needs of the Company and its subsidiaries. The Term Loan Amendment (including as an exhibit the Amended and Restated Term Loan Credit Agreement) was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2023.
Amendment to Letter of Credit Facility Agreement
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2023, on June 30, 2023 the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors entered into an amendment (the “L/C Facility Amendment”) to the Letter of Credit Facility Agreement, dated as of February 26, 2021, among the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors, Bank of America, N.A., as a lender (the “L/C Lender”), the other lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as agent (the “L/C Agent”), and Bank of America, N.A., as issuing bank (the “Issuing Bank”) (as amended, amended and restated, modified and supplemented prior to the L/C Facility Amendment, the “Existing L/C Facility Agreement” and, as amended and restated by the L/C Facility Amendment, the “Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement”), with Bank of America, N.A., as L/C Lender, L/C Agent and Issuing Bank, pursuant to which the L/C Lender committed, subject to certain terms and conditions, to issue additional letters of credit on the Company’s behalf in an aggregate amount of up to $50,000,000, to an aggregate principal amount of commitments of up to $100,000,000 (the “L/C Facility Commitments”), until August 30, 2023, upon which the aggregate L/C Facility Commitments will reduce to $50,000,000, provided that, at all times, the Company posts cash collateral in an amount greater than or equal to 104% of the aggregate amount of letters of credit issued and outstanding at any given time (the “L/C Cash Collateral”).
On July 21, 2023, the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement became effective and the Company posted L/C Cash Collateral covering substantially all of the L/C Facility Commitments. The L/C Facility Amendment (including as an exhibit the Amended and Restated L/C Facility Agreement) was filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed on July 7, 2023.
Board Rights Agreement
As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2023, on June 30, 2023 in connection with the execution of the Term Loan Amendment, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Board Rights Agreement Amendment”) to the letter agreement with Kennedy Lewis Investment Management LLC, dated February 26, 2021 (the “ExistingBoard Rights Agreement”), which provided that, subject to the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement, KLIM’s right to nominate one individual for election as a member of the Company’s board of directors shall last until the date on which KLIM and certain funds associated with KLIM ceases to hold at least $200,000,000 of the original principal amount of Refinancing Term Loans.
On July 21, 2023, the Board Rights Agreement Amendment became effective concurrently with the effectiveness of the Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement. Darren L. Richman, a Co-Founder and Managing Member of KLIM, is currently serving as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company after being nominated pursuant to the Existing Board Rights Agreement.
Item 1.02
|
Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
|
On July 21, 2023, the Company used the net proceeds from the Refinancing Term Loans to repay in full the amounts outstanding under its Existing ABL Credit Agreement (the “ABL Prepayment”). Upon the administrative agent’s receipt in full of the ABL Prepayment, the Existing ABL Credit Agreement was terminated and the lenders’ security interest in any of the Company’s or its subsidiaries assets or property securing the Existing ABL Credit Agreement was released.
On July 21, 2023, the Company used the net proceeds from the Refinancing Term Loans to repay in full the outstanding Convertible Notes (the “Convertible Notes Prepayment”). Upon the holders’ receipt in full of the Convertible Notes Prepayment, the Convertible Notes were terminated and the Company’s obligations under the Convertible Notes were cancelled.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
Certain information contained in this Current Report may include “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

When used in this Current Report and the exhibits hereto, the words “estimates,” “expects,” “anticipates,” “projects,” “plans,” “intends,” “believes,” “predicts,” “forecasts,” “strategy,” “continues,” “goals,” “targets” or future or conditional verbs, such as “will,” “should,” “could,” or “may,” and similar expressions, as well as statements that do not relate strictly to historical or current facts, are intended to identify forward-looking statements. All forward-looking statements are based upon the Company’s expectations and various assumptions. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current views and assumptions and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results.
Future events or results may differ from those anticipated or expressed in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements include, among others, the risks and uncertainties described in more detail in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 under the headings “Business,” “Risk Factors,” “Legal Proceedings” and/or “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Liquidity and Capital Resources,” in the corresponding sections of the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, and in other filings the Company makes with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission from time to time.
All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company or persons acting on its behalf apply only as of the date of this Current Report and are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements included or referenced in this Current Report. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances that arise after the date made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.
