 Loan. The outstanding balance under the Term Loan Agreement as of October 31, 2025 was $3.5 billion.

Under the Term Loan Agreement, borrowings will bear interest on the principal amount outstanding at a floating rate based on, at Synopsys’ election, (i) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus an applicable margin based on the credit ratings of Synopsys ranging from 0.875% to 1.375% (in the case of Tranche 1) or 1.000% to 1.500% (in the case of Tranche 2) or (ii) the ABR (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) plus an applicable margin based on the credit ratings of Synopsys ranging from 0.000% to 0.375% (in the case of Tranche 1) or 0.000% to 0.500% (in the case of Tranche 2). 

The Term Loan Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring that Synopsys maintain a maximum consolidated leverage ratio, as well as certain other non-financial covenants. As of October 31, 2025, we were in compliance with the financial covenant.

In March 2025, we issued $10.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of senior notes (the Senior Notes). Our total proceeds were approximately $9.9 billion, net of original issuance discount of $17.0 million and total issuance costs of $70.2 million. The net proceeds of the Senior Notes were used to fund a portion of the Cash Consideration in the Ansys Merger and pay related transaction fees and expenses.

On February 13, 2024, we entered into a Sixth Amendment Agreement (the Sixth Amendment), which amended and restated our previous revolving credit agreement, dated as of December 14, 2022 (as amended and restated, the Revolving Credit Agreement).

Under the Sixth Amendment, certain amendments became effective on February 13, 2024 and certain additional amendments became effective on the Acquisition Date. The Sixth Amendment amended the financial covenant to allow netting of the cash proceeds of certain debt incurred to finance the Ansys Merger as well as certain other modifications set forth therein. The Sixth Amendment, among other things, also amended: (i) the applicable margin used to determine the interest that accrues on loans and the facility fee payable under the revolving credit
