Item 1.02. Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement
Following the issuance of notes on September 22, 2020 (as described below under
"Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant") by Mondelez International
Holdings Netherlands B.V. ("MIHNBV"), a wholly-owned Dutch subsidiary of
Mondel?z International, Inc. (the "Company"), on September 24, 2020, upon full
prepayment of the $750 million in principal amount outstanding, MIHNBV
terminated its $1.5 billion Term Loan Agreement, dated as of October 14, 2016,
among MIHNBV, as borrower, the Company, as guarantor, the lenders named therein
and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, subject to survival of
any provisions which by their terms survive termination.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On September 22, 2020, MIHNBV, a wholly-owned Dutch subsidiary of the Company,
issued €500 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.000% Notes due 2026 (the
"2026 Notes") and €750 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.375% Notes
due 2029 (the "2029 Notes" and together with the 2026 Notes, the "Notes") in a
transaction exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Notes were issued pursuant to an
Indenture, dated as of October 28, 2016 (the "Indenture"), by and between
MIHNBV, as issuer, the Company, as guarantor, and Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas, as trustee, as supplemented and modified in respect of the Notes by a
third supplemental indenture, dated as of September 22, 2020 (the "Supplemental
Indenture").
The Notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, on a
senior unsecured basis. The Notes are not registered under the Securities Act,
do not bear registration rights and are subject to restrictions on
transferability and resale.
MIHNBV will pay interest on the 2026 Notes and 2029 Notes annually in arrears on
September 22 of each year, beginning on September 22, 2021. The 2026 Notes will
mature on September 22, 2026 and the 2029 Notes will mature on September 22,
2029.
The Indenture contains customary agreements and covenants consistent with those
contained in the Company's outstanding senior unsecured notes. These covenants
limit MIHNBV's and the Company's ability, subject to certain exceptions, to
(i) incur debt secured by liens above a certain threshold, (ii) engage in
certain sale and leaseback transactions above a certain threshold and
(iii) consolidate, merge, convey or transfer its assets substantially as an
entirety. If the Company experiences both a change of control event and a rating
downgrade of the applicable series of Notes below an investment grade rating by
each of Moody's Investors Service, Inc. and Standard & Poor's Ratings Services
within a specified period, MIHNBV will be required to make an offer to purchase
the Notes of that series at a price equal to 101% of their aggregate principal
amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the date of repurchase.
Prior to June 22, 2026, MIHNBV may redeem the 2026 Notes in whole or in part, at
its option, at the redemption price described in the offering memorandum, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption. On or
after June 22, 2026, MIHNBV may redeem the 2026 Notes in whole or in part, at
its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption. Prior
to June 22, 2029, MIHNBV may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at its
option, at the redemption price described in the offering memorandum, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption. On or
after June 22, 2029, MIHNBV may redeem the 2029 Notes in whole or in part, at
its option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the date of redemption.
