Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 9, 2016, Mylan N.V., a public limited liability company ( naamloze vennootschap ) incorporated and existing under the laws of the Netherlands (“Mylan” or the “Company”), announced that it has completed its offering of $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 2.500% Senior Notes due 2019 (the “2019 Notes”), $2,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.150% Senior Notes due 2021 (the “2021 Notes”), $2,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.950% Senior Notes due 2026 (the “2026 Notes”) and $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.250% Senior Notes due 2046 (the “2046 Notes” and, together with the 2019 Notes, the 2021 Notes and the 2026 Notes, the “Notes”). In connection with the issuance of the Notes, the Company entered into an indenture, dated as of June 9, 2016 (the “Indenture”), among the Company, Mylan Inc., as guarantor (the “Guarantor”), and The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the “Trustee”), and a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of June 9, 2016 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), among the Company, the Guarantor, and Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman, Sachs & Co. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several initial purchasers of the Notes.

The Notes were issued in a private offering exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), to qualified institutional buyers in accordance with Rule 144A and to persons outside of the United States pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act.

Indenture

The Notes are the Company’s senior unsecured indebtedness and are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Guarantor. In addition, if a subsidiary of the Company becomes a guarantor or an obligor in respect of certain indebtedness, such subsidiary will guarantee the Notes on the terms and subject to the conditions in the Indenture. The 2019 Notes bear interest at a rate of 2.500% per annum, accruing from June 9, 2016. Interest on the 2019 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 7 and December 7 of each year, commencing on December 7, 2016. The 2019 Notes will mature on June 7, 2019, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The 2021 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.150% per annum, accruing from June 9, 2016. Interest on the 2021 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2016. The 2021 Notes will mature on June 15, 2021, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The 2026 Notes bear interest at a rate of 3.950% per annum, accruing from June 9, 2016. Interest on the 2026 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2016. The 2026 Notes will mature on June 15, 2026, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The 2046 Notes bear interest at a rate of 5.250% per annum, accruing from June 9, 2016. Interest on the 2046 Notes is payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on December 15, 2016. The 2046 Notes will mature on June 15, 2046, subject to earlier repurchase or redemption in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.


At any time and from time to time prior to their maturity date in the case of the 2019 Notes, the date that is one month prior to their maturity date in the case of the 2021 Notes, the date that is three months prior to their maturity date in the case of the 2026 Notes and the date that is six months prior to their maturity date in the case of the 2046 Notes, the Company may redeem some or all of the Notes of the applicable series, upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, at a price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of any Notes being redeemed, and (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes being redeemed, in the case of the 2019 Notes, that would be due to their maturity date, in the case of the 2021 Notes, that would be due if the 2021 Notes matured on the date that is one month prior to their maturity date, in the case of the 2026 Notes, that would be due if the 2026 Notes matured on the date that is three months prior to their maturity date, and in the case of the 2046 Notes, that would be due if the 2046 Notes matured on the date that is six months prior to their maturity date, in each case, not including unpaid interest accrued to, but excluding, the redemption date, discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the treasury rate plus 25 basis points with respect to the 2019 Notes, 30 basis points with respect to the 2021 Notes, 35 basis points with respect to the 2026 Notes and 40 basis points with respect to the 2046 Notes, plus, in each case, unpaid interest on the Notes being redeemed accrued to, but excluding, the redemption date. If the Company experiences certain change of control events with respect to a series of Notes, it must offer to purchase all Notes of such series at a purchase price equal to 101% of the principal amount of such Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase.

If the Company does not acquire more than 90% of the outstanding shares of Meda AB (publ.), a public limited company organized under the laws of Sweden (“Meda”) on or prior to February 10, 2017 or if certain other events related to the Company’s previously announced public offer (the “Offer”) to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Meda with an enterprise value of $9.9 billion at announcement (the “Meda Acquisition”) occur at any time prior thereto, the Company will redeem the 2019 Notes, the 2021 Notes and the 2046 Notes (the “Special Mandatory Redemption”) at a redemption price equal to 101% of the principal amount of each such series of Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of the Special Mandatory Redemption. The Special Mandatory Redemption will not apply to the 2026 Notes, which will remain outstanding in this instance.

The Indenture contains covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability and the ability of certain of its subsidiaries to enter into sale and leaseback transactions; create liens; and consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of the Company’s assets. The Indenture also provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants, payment defaults or acceleration of other indebtedness, failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. These covenants and events of default are subject to a number of important qualifications, limitations and exceptions that are described in the Indenture. If an event of default with respect to the Notes of a series occurs under the Indenture, the principal amount of all of the Notes of such series then outstanding, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of acceleration, may become immediately due and payable.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from this offering to finance the Meda Acquisition, to repay, prepay, redeem or otherwise refinance the Company’s or any of the Company’s subsidiaries’ indebtedness (including that of Meda and its subsidiaries) (the “Refinancing”) and to pay costs associated with the Meda Acquisition and the Refinancing, including non-periodic fees, costs and expenses, stamp registration and other taxes. On June 9, 2016, in accordance with the terms of the Bridge Credit Agreement, dated as of February 10, 2016 (the “Bridge Credit Agreement”), among the Company, as borrower, the Guarantor, as guarantor, Deutsche Bank AG Cayman Islands Branch, as administrative agent and a lender, and the other lenders and guarantors party thereto from time to time, the commitments under the Bridge Credit Agreement were permanently terminated in their entirety in connection with the completion of the offering of the Notes. In the event of a Special Mandatory Redemption, the 2026 Notes will remain outstanding, and the Company intends to use the net proceeds from the offering of the 2026 Notes for the repayment, prepayment, redemption or other refinancing of the indebtedness of the Company or any of its subsidiaries and the payment of any fees and expenses incurred in connection therewith.


The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Indenture, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto, and the Notes, the forms of which are contained in Exhibit 4.1, all of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the offering of the Notes, the Company entered into the Registration Rights Agreement pursuant to which the Company and the Guarantor will use commercially reasonable efforts (1) to file a registration statement (the “Exchange Offer Registration Statement”) with respect to an offer to exchange each series of Notes (each, an “Exchange Offer”) for new notes with the same aggregate principal amount and terms substantially identical in all material respects to the applicable series of Notes (except for the provisions relating to the transfer restrictions and payment of additional interest); (2) to cause the Exchange Offer Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) under the Securities Act; and (3) to consummate the Exchange Offer not later than 365 days following the date of issuance of the Notes (the “Exchange Date”).

If the Company and the Guarantor determine that the Exchange Offer would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the SEC or upon receipt of a written request (a “Shelf Request”) from any initial purchaser representing that it holds Notes that are or were ineligible to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, the Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to (1) file a shelf registration statement covering resales of the Notes; (2) cause such shelf registration statement to become effective under the Securities Act; and (3) keep the shelf registration statement effective until the earliest of the date (i) when a registration statement with respect to such Notes has become effective under the Securities Act and such Notes have been exchanged or disposed of pursuant to such registration statement, (ii) when such Notes cease to be outstanding, (iii) except in the case of Notes that are held by an initial purchaser and that are ineligible to be exchanged in the Exchange Offer, when the Exchange Offer is consummated, (iv) when such Notes are freely tradeable, without restriction, under federal or state securities laws, (v) the date that is one year after the issue date of the Notes and (vi) the date when holders of the Notes, other than holders that are “affiliates” (as defined in Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”)) of the Company, are able to sell such Notes without restriction, and without reliance as to the availability of current public information, pursuant to Rule 144 (such date, the “Registration Rights Expiration Date”).

As to any series of Notes, if (1) the Exchange Offer, with respect to such series of notes, is not completed on or prior to the Exchange Date, (2) the shelf registration statement with respect to such series of notes, if required because the Company and the Guarantor determine that the Exchange Offer would violate any applicable law or applicable interpretations of the SEC, has not become effective on or prior to the Exchange Date, (3) the Company receives a Shelf Request and the shelf registration statement required to be filed thereby has not become effective by the later of (a) the Exchange Date and (b) 90 days after delivery of such Shelf Request or (4) the shelf registration statement, if required by the Registration Rights Agreement, has become effective and thereafter ceases to be effective or the prospectus contained therein ceases to be usable, in each case whether or not permitted by the Registration Rights Agreement, at any time prior to the Registration Rights Expiration Date, and such failure to remain effective or usable exists for more than 180 days (whether or not consecutive) in any 12-month period, each such event referred to in clauses (1) through (4), a “Registration Default,” then the interest rate on the Notes of such series will be increased by (i) 0.25% per annum for the first 90-day period beginning on the day immediately following such Registration Default and (ii) an additional 0.25% per annum with respect to each subsequent 90-day period, in each case until and including the date such Registration Default ends, up to a maximum increase of 0.50% per annum.


The foregoing summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.

The initial purchasers of the Notes have, from time to time, performed, are currently performing and may in the future perform, various financial advisory and commercial and investment banking services for the Company, for which they received or will receive customary fees and expenses.

These statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
