Item 8.01 Other Events.
On April 3, 2019, HC2 Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation  (the "Borrower"), and certain of its subsidiaries that guarantee (the "Guarantors") the Borrower's 11.500% Senior Secured Notes due 2021 (the "Secured Notes"), entered into a $15 million secured revolving credit agreement (the "2019 Revolving Credit Agreement") with MSD PCOF Partners IX, LLC, as lender (the "Lender").  On March 3, 2020, in accordance with the terms of the 2019 Revolving Credit Agreement, the Borrower permanently repaid such facility with a portion of the net cash proceeds from the previously announced sale of 100% of the Borrower's equity interest in the Global Marine Group to an investment affiliate of J.F. Lehman & Company, LLC.
On March 13, 2020 (the "Closing Date"), the Borrower and the Guarantors entered into a new $15 million secured revolving credit agreement (the "New Revolving Credit Agreement") with the Lender.  The Borrower intends to use the proceeds of loans under the New Revolving Credit Agreement for working capital and general corporate purposes.  Any amounts borrowed under the New Revolving Credit Agreement and subsequently voluntarily repaid may be re-borrowed until maturity or termination. The New Revolving Credit Agreement matures on June 1, 2021.
Loans under the New Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to, at the Borrower's option, one, two or three month LIBOR plus a margin of 6.75%. If in the future LIBOR is unavailable, loans under the New Revolving Credit Agreement may bear interest at a base rate plus a margin of 5.75%. The Borrower is required to pay an undrawn commitment fee at a per annum rate equal to 1.00% of the undrawn portion of the commitments under the New Revolving Credit Agreement computed on a daily basis for the applicable period.
All obligations under the New Revolving Credit Agreement are secured by the same collateral that secures the Secured Notes and constitute "First-Out Debt", "First-Out Obligations" and "Pari Passu Obligations" under the indenture governing the Secured Notes (the "Secured Indenture") and the related collateral trust agreement to the extent permitted thereunder.  The obligations of the Borrower under the New Revolving Credit Agreement are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by the same Guarantors that guarantee the Borrower's obligations under the Secured Notes.
The New Revolving Credit Agreement contains substantially similar covenants to the Secured Indenture, including financial covenants.  The New Revolving Credit Agreement also contains customary representations and warranties and events of default for a transaction of this type.
If an event of default under the New Revolving Credit Agreement occurs and is continuing, the Lender may terminate all commitments under the New Revolving Credit Agreement, declare all unpaid principal, interest and other amounts under the New Revolving Credit Agreement to become immediately due and payable and exercise any other available remedies under the New Revolving Credit Agreement or the related loan documents. In addition, if the Borrower becomes subject to any actual or deemed order of relief under the U.S. bankruptcy code, the Lender's commitments will automatically terminate and any outstanding obligations under the New Revolving Credit Agreement will automatically become immediately due and payable.
