Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 26, 2013, tw telecom holdings inc. ("Holdings"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of tw telecom inc. (the "Company"), closed
its previously announced private offering of $450 million in aggregate principal amount of its 5.375% Senior Notes due 2022 (the "2022 Notes") and $350 million in aggregate principal amount of its 6.375% Senior Notes due 2023 (the
"2023 Notes" and together with the 2022 Notes, the "Notes"). The 2022 Notes were issued pursuant to a new indenture dated as of August 26, 2013 (the "2022 Indenture") by and among Holdings, the Company, certain
subsidiaries of the Company and Holdings (the "Subsidiary Guarantors") and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), as trustee. The 2023 Notes were issued pursuant to a new indenture dated as of August 26,
2013 (the "2023 Indenture"), by and among Holdings, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors and Wells Fargo, as trustee.
The Company
plans to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund the repurchase of any and all of Holdings' $430 million principal amount of 8% Senior Notes due 2018 (the "8% Notes") that are tendered in a concurrent cash tender offer and
consent solicitation (the "Tender Offer") and for general corporate purposes, which may include repurchases of the Company's common stock. Pending the application of the net proceeds to these uses, the Company plans to invest the
proceeds in cash and cash equivalents.
This report does not constitute an offer to sell, or the solicitation of an offer to buy, the Notes.
Any offers of the Notes were made only by means of a private offering circular. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or the securities laws of any other jurisdiction, and
may not be offered or sold in the United States or to, or for the account or benefit of, U.S. persons absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements. The Notes were sold to "qualified institutional buyers" as
defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and to non-U.S. persons outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act.
The 2022 Notes Indenture
The 2022 Notes
are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, and rank equally in right of payment with Holdings' existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Holdings will pay interest on the 2022 Notes
semiannually on April 1 and October 1 of each year, commencing on October 1, 2013, at a rate of 5.375% per annum. The 2022 Notes will mature on October 1, 2022. Holdings has the option to redeem all or a part of the 2022
Notes at any time on or after October 1, 2017 at the redemption prices set forth in the 2022 Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. At any time prior to October 1, 2015, Holdings has the option to
redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes with the net cash proceeds of equity offerings by the Company at a redemption price of 105.375% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of redemption, provided that at least 65% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes remains outstanding after such redemption. Prior to October 1, 2017, Holdings may redeem some or all of the
Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2022 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date plus the applicable "make-whole" premium.
The 2023 Notes Indenture
The 2023 Notes
are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors, and rank equally in right of payment with Holdings' existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Holdings will pay interest on the 2023 Notes
semiannually on March 1 and September 1 of each year, commencing on March 1, 2014, at a rate of 6.375% per annum. The 2023 Notes will mature on September 1, 2023. Holdings has the option to redeem all or a part of the 2023
Notes at any time on or after September 1, 2018 at the redemption prices set forth in the 2023 Indenture, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption. At any time prior to September 1, 2016, Holdings has the option
to redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes with the net cash proceeds of equity offerings by the Company at a redemption price of 106.375% of the aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes, plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, to the date of redemption, provided that at least 65% of the original aggregate principal amount of the 2023 Notes remains outstanding after such redemption. Prior to September 1, 2018, Holdings may redeem some or all of the
Notes at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the 2023 Notes plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the applicable redemption date plus the applicable "make-whole" premium.
The 2022 Indenture is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K and the 2023 Indenture is filed as Exhibit 4.2
to this Form 8-K, and each of them is incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the material terms of the 2022 Indenture and 2023 Indenture above are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 4.1 and 4.2.
Registration Rights Agreements
In
connection with the closing of the offering of the Notes, the Company, Holdings and the representatives of the initial purchasers of the Notes entered into a registration rights agreement dated August 26, 2013 in respect of the 2022 Notes (the
"2022 Notes Registration Rights Agreement") and a registration rights agreement dated August 26, 2013 in respect of the 2023 Notes (the "2023 Notes Registration Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the terms of the 2022 Notes
Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and Holdings agreed, among other things, to file an exchange offer registration statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") within 180 days after the issuance of the 2022
Notes, or, if required, to file a shelf registration statement to cover re-sales of the 2022 Notes under certain circumstances. Pursuant to the terms of the 2023 Notes Registration Rights Agreement, the Company and Holdings agreed, among other
things, to file an exchange offer registration statement with the SEC within 180 days after the issuance of the 2023 Notes, or, if required, to file a shelf registration statement to cover re-sales of the 2023 Notes under certain circumstances.
The 2022 Notes Registration Rights Agreement is filed as Exhibit 4.3 to this Form 8-K and the 2023 Notes Registration Rights Agreement is
filed as Exhibit 4.4 to this Form 8-K, and each of them is hereby incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the material terms of the 2022 Notes Registration Rights Agreement and the 2023 Notes Registration Rights Agreement above are
qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibits 4.3 and 4.4.
Second Supplemental Indenture
Following Holdings' receipt of the consent of the holders of $406.2 million in aggregate principal amount, or approximately 94.5% of the outstanding
aggregate principal amount, of 8% Notes in the Tender Offer and prior to the purchase of such 8% Notes referenced in Item 8.01 below, on August 26, 2013, the Company, Holdings, certain subsidiaries of the Company and Holdings and Wells
Fargo, as trustee, entered into a Second Supplemental Indenture (the "Supplemental Indenture") to, among other things, eliminate certain of the restrictive covenants and events of default related to the 8% Notes (other than events of
default relating to the failure to pay principal of and interest on the 8% Notes, certain bankruptcy and insolvency events and the failure to maintain guarantees in full force and effect) and to shorten the notice period for redemption of the 8%
Notes. The consents received were sufficient to effect all of the proposed amendments to the indenture governing the 8% Notes pursuant to the Supplemental Indenture.
The Supplemental Indenture is filed as Exhibit 4.5 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The description of the material terms of the Supplemental Indenture above is qualified in its
entirety by reference to Exhibit 4.5.
