Item 1.01                                           Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K for Lannett Company, Inc. (“Lannett”) filed on December 2, 2015, in connection with its acquisition of Kremers Urban Pharmaceuticals Inc., Lannett entered into (i) a credit and guaranty agreement (the “Credit and Guaranty Agreement”) among certain of its wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Lannett Guarantors”), Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc. (“Morgan Stanley”), as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto providing for a secured credit facility (the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The Senior Secured Credit Facility consisted of a term loan facility initially providing for Tranche A term loans (the “Tranche A Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $275.0 million, a term loan facility initially providing for Tranche B term loans (the “Tranche B Term Loans” and together with the Tranche A Term Loans, the “Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $635.0 million and a revolving credit facility providing for revolving loans (the “Revolving Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of up to $125.0 million.

 

On June 17, 2016, Lannett entered into Amendment No. 1 to Credit and Guaranty Agreement (“Amendment No. 1”) among Lannett, as the borrower, Morgan Stanley, in its capacity as administrative agent, and each incremental term lender party thereto (the “Incremental Term Lender”). Pursuant to Amendment No. 1, Lannett was provided an incremental term loan by the Incremental Term Lender in the principal amount of $150.0 million (the “Incremental Term Loan”). The terms of this Incremental Term Loan are substantially the same as those applicable to the Tranche B Term Loans.

 

Lannett used the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan, together with cash on hand, to repurchase, in a privately negotiated transaction, the remaining outstanding $200.0 million aggregate principal amount of Lannett’s 12.0% Senior Notes due 2023 (the “Senior Notes”). In order to allow for such repurchase under the Senior Secured Credit Facility, on June 17, 2016, Lannett entered into Amendment No. 2 to Credit and Guaranty Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”) among Lannett, as the borrower, Morgan Stanley, in its capacity as administrative agent, and each lender party thereto, whereby the lenders under Credit and Guaranty Agreement consent to the use of the proceeds of the Incremental Term Loan to repurchase the Senior Notes.

 

The foregoing description of Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 1 and Amendment No. 2, which are filed as Exhibits 10.43 and 10.44, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 1.02                                           Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

In connection with the repurchase of the Senior Notes, Lannett terminated the Indenture, dated as of November 25, 2015, among Lannett, the Lannett Guarantors, and Wilmington Trust, National Association.
