a868b80adf8473cb7b3862027ee109c8
A Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings subsidiary launched an amendment for its existing credit facilities that enables the company to reprice certain loans.

The amendment facilitates the repricing of an existing $750m revolving credit facility and an existing $1.43bn term A loan facility. It also increases the size of the existing revolving facility and adds a new $375m term B loan due 2021.

According to a filing, the company intends to use the proceeds of the new term B loan, together with borrowings under the revolving credit facility and cash on hand, to redeem its 4.625% senior notes due 2020.

JPMorgan is acting as lead arranger for the amendment.
