In the period from June 25, 2025 through June 30, 2025 (Successor), total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs, amounted to $923. Total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts, amounted to $11,061 and $28,577 for the period from March 30, 2025 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and for the three months ended June 29, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively. Total interest expense on long-term debt, inclusive of amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discounts, amounted to $38,664 and $53,304 for the period ended December 29, 2024 through June 24, 2025 (Predecessor) and for the six months ended June 29, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively.

As of June 30, 2025 (Successor) and December 28, 2024 (Predecessor), the Company’s debt consisted of fixed and / or variable-rate instruments. The Company has historically entered into interest rate swaps to hedge a portion of the cash flow exposure associated with the Company’s variable-rate borrowings. At June 30, 2025 (Successor), the Company did not have any interest rate swaps in effect. The weighted average interest rate (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs and debt discount) on the Company’s outstanding debt, exclusive of the impact of any applicable interest rate swaps, was approximately 11.09% and 7.75% per annum at June 30, 2025 (Successor) and December 28, 2024 (Predecessor), respectively, or 7.47% per annum at December 28, 2024 (Predecessor) including the impact of any applicable interest rate swaps, based on interest rates on these dates.

Senior Secured Credit Agreement

In connection with the Company’s emergence from bankruptcy, on June 24, 2025 the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB (“WSFS”), as administrative agent, entered into a senior secured credit agreement (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) which provides for a five-year term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $465,000 maturing on June 24, 2030 (the “New Term Loan Facility”). As of June 30, 2025 (Successor), the Company had $465,000 in an aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the New Term Loan Facility. Additionally, the Company has $3,659 in issued but undrawn letters of credit outstanding with Bank of America, N.A., which are permitted under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and issued pursuant to separate reimbursement and cash collateral agreements.

The New Term Loan Facility bears a variable interest rate based on either (1) the sum of (x) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (a) 0.50% per annum plus the Federal Funds Effective Rate (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement), (b) the prime rate announced by WSFS and (c) one-month Term SOFR plus 1.00%; provided that such rate is not lower than a floor of 1.50%, plus (y) 5.80% per annum, or (2) the sum of (x) Term SOFR plus (y) 6.80% per annum, provided that Term SOFR is not lower than a floor of 0.50%. The interest rate in effect for the New Term Loan Facility as of June 30, 2025 was 11.12%.

All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are guaranteed by, subject to certain exceptions, each of the Company’s current and future material subsidiaries. All obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement, and the guarantees of those obligations, are or will be secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and each guarantor organized in the United States, the United Kingdom and the Netherlands (each, a “Secured Guarantor”).

The Company is required to prepay (a) 100% of the unrestricted cash held by the Company and its subsidiaries in excess of $100,000, (b) 100% of the proceeds from the sale of certain assets and proceeds of certain casualty events, and (c) 100% of incurrence of any new debt proceeds unless such incurrence is permitted under the credit agreement. Other than the mandatory prepayments of excess unrestricted cash as described above, the Company is also required to pay a prepayment premium of: (a) for the first eighteen months following the Emergence Date, 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility in excess of $200,000, (b) from the eighteen-month anniversary of the Emergence Date to the second anniversary of the Emergence Date, 2.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility, and (c) from the second anniversary of the Emergence Date to the third anniversary of the Emergence Date, 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of prepayments or refinancings of the New Term Loan Facility. All prepayments of the principal balance of outstanding loans under the New Term Loan Facility are subject to customary “breakage” costs with respect to Term SOFR loans under the New Term Loan Facility. The Senior Secured Credit Agreement contains other customary terms, including (1) representations, warranties and affirmative covenants, (2) negative covenants, including limitations on indebtedness, liens, mergers, acquisitions, asset sales, investments, distributions, prepayments of subordinated debt, amendments of material agreements governing subordinated indebtedness, changes to lines of business and transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to baskets, thresholds and other exceptions, the availability of certain of which are subject to compliance with certain financial ratios, and (3) customary events of default.

Prepetition Liabilities

On April 13, 2021, the Company, as borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and an issuing bank, entered into a credit agreement (the “Prepetition Credit Agreement”). The Prepetition Credit Agreement provided for senior secured financing of $1,175,000 in the aggregate, consisting of (1) $1,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of senior secured tranche B term loans maturing on April 13, 2028 (the “Prepetition Term Loan Facility”) and (2) a $175,000 senior secured revolving credit facility (which included borrowing capacity available for letters of credit) maturing on April 23, 2026 (the “Prepetition Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the Prepetition Term Loan Facility, the “Prepetition Credit Facilities”). On January 2, 2025 and January 31, 2025, the Company borrowed $50,000 and $121,341, respectively, under the Revolving Credit Facility. These borrowings were under the Prepetition Revolving Credit Facility. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, all outstanding liabilities of approximately $1,116,000 under the Prepetition Credit Facilities and the Prepetition Credit Agreement were discharged and the liens and mortgages related thereto were released (see Note 2 “Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11”). Between the Petition Date and the Emergence Date, the Company’s obligations were automatically stayed and the Company entered into certain first day motions to take certain operating actions under the supervision of the Court. Contractual interest on the Company’s obligations amounted to $15,412, which is $4,351 in excess of reported interest expense during the Predecessor period.

On April 13, 2021, the Company issued $500,000 in aggregate principal amount of its 4.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2029 (the “Notes”). The Notes were issued pursuant to an indenture, dated as of April 13, 2021 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, the guarantors named therein and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee and notes collateral agent. Upon emergence from bankruptcy, all outstanding obligations of $500,000 under the Notes and the Indenture were discharged and the liens and mortgages related thereto were released (see Note 2 “Emergence from Voluntary Reorganization under Chapter 11”).
