facility in an aggregate principal amount of $1,375 million (the
2023 Term B Loans), the proceeds of which were,
in each case used, together with cash on hand, to repay in full
HIs 2014-1 Additional Term Loans due 2021 and HIs 2016 Term B

The 2021 Term B Loans have a stated maturity date of October1,
2021 and the 2023 Term B Loans have a stated maturity date of

event that certain earlier-maturing senior notes issued by HI are
not repaid or refinanced prior to their maturity date and HI does

time. The 2021 Term B Loans and the 2023 Term B Loans bear
interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin plus,
at the HIs option, either LIBOR (which is subject to a .75%
