TORONTO, March 30, 2016
TORONTO, March 30, 2016 /CNW/ - Discovery Air Inc. (DA.A) ("Discovery Air" or the "Corporation") announced today that it has entered into a credit agreement with certain funds or co-investors (such lenders, collectively "Clairvest") of Clairvest Group Inc., the majority shareholder of the Corporation, providing for a revolving credit facility in the aggregate principal amount of $12,000,000 (the "Revolving Credit Facility"), $2,000,000 of which will be subject to the prior consent of Clairvest. All borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility bear interest at a rate of 12% per annum payable on a monthly basis, mature on December 31, 2016 and are secured. The Corporation may repay and re-borrow the principal under the Revolving Credit Facility on customary conditions. Proceeds from the Revolving Credit Facility will be used to finance aircraft upgrades in support of certain growth initiatives and for business development activities at certain subsidiaries. A material change report will be filed less than 21 days before the closing date of the transaction. This shorter period is reasonable and necessary in the circumstances to allow the Corporation to obtain financing for working capital. In connection with the Revolving Credit Facility, the Corporation also obtained certain adjustments to its existing debt arrangements, including principal repayment adjustments and covenant waivers.
The Revolving Credit Facility is a "related party transaction" within the meaning of Multilateral Instrument 61-101 – Protection of Minority Security Holders in Special Transactions ("MI 61-101"). The Corporation is not required under MI 61-101 to obtain a formal valuation in respect of the Revolving Credit Facility and will be relying upon the exemption from the minority approval requirement in section 5.7(f) of MI 61-101 as a result of (i) the Revolving Credit Facility being provided on reasonable commercial terms that are not less advantageous to the Corporation than if the Revolving Credit Facility was obtained from an arm's length party and (ii) the Revolving Credit Facility not containing any equity component.
