Item 1.01          Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

Credit Agreement

On October 27, 2015 (the “Closing Date”), Coty Inc. (“Coty”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the other borrowers party thereto from time to time, the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other agents from time to time party thereto. The Credit Agreement provides for senior secured credit facilities (the “Senior Secured Facilities”) in the aggregate principal amount of $4.5 billion comprised of (i) a five year revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount up to $1.5 billion, (ii) a $1.75 term loan A facility and (iii) a $1.25 billion term loan B facility. A portion of the term loan B facility is denominated in Euros and the revolving credit facility is available to be borrowed by Coty in Pounds Sterling, Swiss Francs, Canadian Dollars, Euros and other currencies reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent and the revolving lenders.

On the Closing Date, the proceeds of the term loan facilities were used to refinance (i) that certain credit agreement, dated as of April 2, 2013, among Coty, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “2013 Credit Agreement”) and (ii) that certain credit agreement, dated as of March 24, 2015, among Coty, the lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and pay fees, costs and expenses (the “2015 Credit Agreement and, together with the 2013 Credit Agreement, the “Previous Credit Agreements”). The revolving credit facility will also be used for working capital needs, general corporate purposes and other purposes not prohibited by the Credit Agreement. Immediately following the closing of the Credit Agreement on the Closing Date, $220 million was outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Interest Rate; Commitment Fee. The interest rate applicable to any borrowings under the term loan A facility and the revolving credit facility will accrue at a rate equal to, at Coty’s option, either LIBOR plus a margin of 2.00% per annum or a base rate plus a margin of 1.00% per annum, which margins are subject to certain step-downs based on Coty’s total net leverage ratio. The interest rate applicable to any borrowings under the term loan B facility will accrue at a rate equal to (a) for U.S. dollar term loans, at Coty’s option, either LIBOR (subject to a 0.75% floor) plus a margin of 3.00% or a base rate plus a margin of 2.00%, and (b) for Euro term loans, EURIBOR (subject to a 0.75% floor) plus a margin of 2.75%. Coty will pay to the revolving lenders an unused commitment fee calculated at a rate per annum equal to 0.50%, subject to certain step-downs based on Coty’s total net leverage ratio.

Repayment; Maturity. The term loan A facility is repayable in equal quarterly installments of 1.25% of the original principal amount of the term loan A facility, with the balance due on the date that is five years following the Closing Date. The term loan B facility is repayable in equal quarterly installments of 0.25% of the original principal amount of the term loan B facility, with the balance due on the date that is seven years following the Closing Date. The revolving credit facility will mature on October 27, 2020.
