 364-day senior secured bridge loan facility, subject to customary conditions, mandatory commitment reduction events and entry into definitive financing and ancillary documentation as set forth therein. Compass expects that the existing senior non-convertible notes and asset-based securities facilities of Anywhere and its subsidiaries will remain in place following the closing. To the extent funded, the net proceeds of the debt financing are expected to be used to refinance certain existing indebtedness of Anywhere and its subsidiaries, including borrowings under Anywhere’s revolving credit facility, to pay fees, costs and expenses related to the transaction and for general corporate purposes.
