Edison: 500 million Euro bank loan agreement
Milano, 12 July 2013 – Edison Spa entered on July, 10 2013 into a 500 million euro short term loan agreement with a pool of banks composed by Banca IMI - Intesa Sanpaolo, BBVA, BNP Paribas - BNL, Crédit Agricole CIB, Mediobanca, UniCredit, acting as Mandated Lead Arrangers and/or Lenders. Banca IMI acts also as Agent and Documentation Bank.
The loan, arranged as a Club Deal without any syndication, is an unsecured Revolving Credit Facility. The rate of interest is indexed to Euribor, increased by a spread in line with the current best market conditions, and the facility expires in January 2015.
The transaction is part of the wider refinancing plan, launched last April when Edison entered into two loans, totaling Euro 1,400 million, granted by EDF Group companies.
The new credit line further enhances Edison’s financial flexibility.
