Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
Issuance of 5.00% Senior Notes due 2032
On December 28, 2021, Iron Mountain Incorporated, or the Company, completed a
private offering of $750 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.000% Senior
Notes due 2032, or the Notes, sold at 100.000% of par. The Notes were issued by
the Company's wholly owned subsidiary, Iron Mountain Information Management
Services, Inc. or the Issuer. The net proceeds from the offering were
approximately $737.8 million, after deducting discounts to the initial
purchasers. The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the
Notes to finance the cash consideration for the acquisition of Intercept Parent,
Inc. (collectively with its subsidiaries, ITRenew), or the Acquisition,
including the repayment of certain outstanding debt of ITRenew, and to pay
related fees and expenses. To the extent the Company has proceeds that are not
applied to complete the Acquisition, it intends to apply those proceeds to
reduce outstanding indebtedness and/or for general corporate purposes.
The Notes were offered and sold only to persons reasonably believed to be
qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, or the Securities Act, and outside the United States to
non-United States persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Securities
Act. The Notes have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any
state securities law, and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent
registration or an applicable exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws.
The Notes were issued under an indenture, dated as of December 28, 2021, or the
Indenture, by and among the Issuer, the Company, the Subsidiary Guarantors (as
defined below) and Computershare Trust Company N.A., as trustee.
The Issuer will pay 5.000% interest per annum on the principal amount of the
Notes, payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year. Interest on
the Notes will accrue from December 28, 2021, and the first interest payment
date for the Notes will be May 15, 2022. The Notes will mature on July 15, 2032,
unless they are earlier redeemed or repurchased in accordance with the terms set
forth in the Indenture.
The Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis by
the Company and the Company's direct and indirect wholly owned United States
subsidiaries that represent the substantial majority of its United States
operations, or the Subsidiary Guarantors. The Notes and the guarantees will be
the Issuer's, the Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' general unsecured
senior obligations, will be pari passu in right of payment with all of the
Issuer's, the Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' existing and future
senior debt and will rank senior in right of payment to all of the Issuer's, the
Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' existing and future subordinated debt.
The Notes and the guarantees are effectively subordinated to the Issuer's, the
Company's and the Subsidiary Guarantors' secured indebtedness, to the extent of
the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness, and structurally
subordinated to all liabilities of the Company's subsidiaries that do not
guarantee the Notes.
Prior to July 15, 2027, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem all or a portion
of the Notes at the applicable make-whole price set forth in the Indenture.
Prior to January 15, 2025, the Issuer may, at its option, redeem up to 40% in
aggregate principal amount of the Notes with an amount not greater than the net
proceeds of certain equity offerings at the redemption price set forth in the
Indenture so long as at least 50% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes
(originally issued) remains outstanding immediately afterwards. The Issuer has
the option to redeem all or a portion of the Notes at any time on or after July
15, 2027 at the redemption prices set forth in the Indenture. Upon the sale of
certain assets or upon certain changes of control, the Issuer, the Company or a
Restricted Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture), as applicable, may be
required to offer to repurchase the Notes under the terms set forth in the
Indenture.
The Indenture provides for customary "events of default" which could cause, or
permit, the acceleration of the Notes and which are similar to those applicable
to the Company's currently outstanding senior notes. The Indenture contains
certain restrictive financial and operating covenants, including covenants that
restrict the Issuer's, and in certain cases the Company's ability to incur
indebtedness, pay dividends or make other restricted payments, sell assets,
create or permit liens, guarantee indebtedness, make acquisitions or other
investments and take certain other corporate actions.
This brief description of the Notes is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the Indenture, attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, which is incorporated herein by
reference.
This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the
solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of these
securities in any state or other jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation
or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the
securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.
