(together, the "Notes", and each a "Class" of Notes).
7 January 2022.
The Issuer today announces invitations (the "Consent
Solicitation") to the Noteholders to consent to the modification of
the terms and conditions of the Class A1 Notes, the Class A2a
Notes, the Class B1a Notes and the Class C1a Notes (together, the
"Sterling Notes") and consequential or related amendments to
certain transaction documents relating to the Notes such that the
existing Sterling LIBOR interest basis is replaced by a Compounded
Daily SONIA interest basis and new fallbacks are included to
address the non-availability of SONIA or the replacement of SONIA,
as proposed by the Issuer (the "Proposal") for approval by
extraordinary resolution of the Noteholders of each Class (each an
"Extraordinary Resolution" and together, the "Extraordinary
Resolutions").
Unless otherwise indicated, capitalised terms used but not
otherwise defined in this announcement have the meanings given in
the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
The Proposal constitutes a Basic Terms Modification under the
terms and conditions of the Sterling Notes, and therefore the
holders of each Class are invited to approve the Proposal, even
though the interest rate applicable to the Sterling Notes (and no
other Notes) will be amended if the Proposal is implemented
(although the sterling amounts payable by the Issuer under the
cross-currency swaps in respect of the Notes that are not Sterling
Notes (together, the "Non-Sterling Notes") will also be amended if
the Proposal is implemented). If an Extraordinary Resolution in
respect of any Class is not successfully passed or (in the case of
any Class of the Sterling Notes) the related Eligibility Condition
is not satisfied, then the Issuer will not implement the Proposal
and no Class of the Sterling Notes will be amended (irrespective of
whether or not the relevant Extraordinary Resolution(s) for any of
the other Classes passes and/or any related Eligibility
Condition(s) is satisfied).
The Issuer has convened the Meetings for the purpose of enabling
the Noteholders to consider and resolve, if they think fit, to
approve the Proposal by way of a separate Extraordinary Resolution
in relation to each Class, implementing:
(i) respective changes in the interest basis specified in the
Conditions of the Sterling Notes from Sterling LIBOR to SONIA and
inclusion of new fallbacks to address the non-availability of SONIA
or the replacement of SONIA by means of a supplemental trust deed,
such that on the Interest Payment Date (as defined in the
Conditions) falling in May 2022, the Rate of Interest payable in
respect of the Sterling Notes will be the sum of:
(a) the Current Margin for the relevant Class of Notes (which
are detailed in Annex 2 (Margin Adjustment) to the relevant Notice
of Meeting and in the Summary of Principal Changes to the
Conditions of the Sterling Notes in the Consent Solicitation
Memorandum);
(b) the Margin Adjustment (which is fixed at 0.1193 per cent.); and
(c) the Compounded Daily SONIA rate for the relevant Interest
Period (the detailed provisions relating to the calculation of
which are set out in the Supplemental Trust Deed);
(ii) respective changes in the floating rate options specified
in the Swap Transactions hedging the Non-Sterling Notes from
Sterling LIBOR to SONIA (including corresponding and/or
consequential amendments) by means of swap amended and restated
confirmations;
(iii) corresponding and/or consequential amendments to the
Administration Agreement, Subordinated Loan Agreement, Substitute
Administrator Agreement and Substitute Administrator Facilitator
Agreement by means of an amendment agreement to the Administration
Agreement, Subordinated Loan Agreement, Substitute Administrator
Agreement and Substitute Administrator Facilitator Agreement,
all as further disclosed in the consent solicitation memorandum
prepared by the Issuer dated 7 January 2022 (the "Consent
Solicitation Memorandum").
This announcement does not contain the full terms and conditions
of the Consent Solicitation which are contained in the Consent
Solicitation Memorandum. The Consent Solicitation and Proposal are
being made on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in
the Consent Solicitation Memorandum.
The Solicitation Agent is Lloyds Bank Corporate Markets plc and
the Information and Tabulation Agent is Citibank, N.A., London
Branch.
This announcement should be read in conjunction with the Consent
Solicitation Memorandum which is available from the Information and
Tabulation Agent (including on its website via the link (
https://debtxportal.issuerservices.citigroup.com ) ).
Margin Adjustment
Due to the differences in the nature of Sterling LIBOR and
SONIA, the replacement of Sterling LIBOR as the reference rate for
the Sterling Notes requires a corresponding credit adjustment
spread to the existing Notes Interest Rate Margin payable in
respect of the relevant Class of Sterling Notes. The Proposal uses
the "5-year historical median" methodology agreed by the
International Swaps and Derivatives Association for determining
this credit adjustment spread and recommended by the Working Group
for use in cash products such as the Sterling Notes. It involves
taking the median of the daily difference between Sterling LIBOR
and SONIA in the 5 years leading up to the LIBOR Announcement Date.
Using this methodology, the credit adjustment spread for 3-month
Sterling LIBOR is 0.1193 per cent., as calculated and published by
Bloomberg Index Services Limited on the LIBOR Announcement Date and
as referenced on Bloomberg screen SBP0003M Index on the date of the
Consent Solicitation Memorandum. The credit adjustment spread for
3-month Sterling LIBOR of 0.1193 per cent. will also be applied to
the sterling amounts payable by the Issuer under the cross-currency
swaps in respect of the Non-Sterling Notes.
Notices of Meeting in respect of the Noteholders
Notices convening meetings (the "Meetings") of Noteholders, to
be held via teleconference on 31 January 2022, have been given to
the Noteholders in accordance with the Conditions on the date of
this announcement, including by way of an announcement on the
Regulatory News Service of the London Stock Exchange plc.
In light of the ongoing developments in relation to coronavirus
(COVID-19), it may be impossible or inadvisable to hold the
Meetings (and any adjourned Meetings) at a physical location.
Therefore, in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Deed,
further regulations regarding the holding of the Meetings (and any
adjourned Meetings) will be prescribed to facilitate the Meetings
(and any adjourned Meetings) being held via teleconference. The
Meetings will not be convened at a physical location. The Trustee
has agreed with the Issuer to exercise its powers under paragraph
22 of Schedule 3 (Provisions for the Meetings of Noteholders) to
the Trust Deed to prescribe further regulations regarding the
holding of meetings of the Noteholders and attendance and voting
threat. The procedures regarding the Meetings and the means of
voting on the Extraordinary Resolutions reflected in the Consent
Solicitation Memorandum and the Notices of Meeting reflect those
regulations and have been agreed by the Issuer.
Eligible Noteholders
The Issuer is convening the Meetings to consider and, if thought
fit, approve by way of an Extraordinary Resolution of each Class of
Notes the modifications of the Conditions (and the other
consequential and related modifications described in this
announcement and the Consent Solicitation Memorandum).
When submitting an Electronic Voting Instruction or otherwise
participating at the relevant Meeting in respect of the Sterling
Notes of the relevant Class, an Eligible Noteholder is a Noteholder
who is (a) located and resident outside the United States and not a
U.S. person (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act)
and (b) otherwise a person to whom the Consent Solicitation can be
lawfully made and that may lawfully participate in the Consent
Solicitation.
The implementation of the Proposal will be conditional on:
(a) the Consent Solicitation not having been terminated;
(b) the passing of the Extraordinary Resolution in relation to each Class; and
(c) in respect of each Extraordinary Resolution in respect of
each Class of the Sterling Notes, that the quorum required for, and
the requisite majority of votes cast at, the Meetings (including
any adjournment thereof) in respect of any Class of the Sterling
Notes will need to be satisfied by Eligible Noteholders of such
class, irrespective of any participation at the relevant Meeting by
Ineligible Noteholders (such condition in respect of each Class of
the Sterling Notes, the "Eligibility Condition").
