Altisource exchange and maturity extension
We advised an ad hoc group of term loan lenders on the transaction
Davis Polk advised an ad hoc group of term loan lenders in connection with an exchange and maturity extension of Altisource Portfolio Solutions S.A.’s term loans.
Through the exchange and maturity extension, Altisource reduced its outstanding debt obligations by about 25%, from $232.8 million to $172.5 million. The lenders exchanged their existing term loans for (i) a $110 million interest-bearing first-lien loan with a five-year maturity extension and associated non-interest-bearing exit fee of $50 million and (ii) 63.5% of Altisource’s pro forma outstanding shares. Altisource is also the borrower under a new $12.5 million super senior credit facility. Pre-transaction Altisource shareholders, penny warrant holders and restricted stock unit holders also received warrants in the transaction.
Altisource is a leading integrated service provider and marketplace for the real estate and mortgage industries. Altisource provides technology and innovative solutions to mortgage servicing and origination clients, as well as buyers and sellers of single-family residential real estate.
