EXHIBIT 10.39
FIFTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT AND CONSENT
THIS FIFTH AMENDMENT TO CREDIT AGREEMENT AND CONSENT, dated as of the 30th
day of April, 2004 (this "Amendment"), is made by and between PROVINCE
HEALTHCARE COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (the "Borrower"), the Lenders (as
hereinafter defined) that have executed this Amendment (the "Required Lenders"),
and WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as agent for the Lenders (in such
capacity, the "Agent").
BACKGROUND STATEMENT
A. The Borrower, certain banks and other financial institutions (the
"Lenders"), the Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent, and UBS
Warburg LLC and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Capital Corporation, as Documentation Agents, are
parties to a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of November
13, 2001, as amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Certain Operative
Agreements, dated as of March 29, 2002, by that certain Second Amendment to
Credit Agreement and Consent, dated as of March 28, 2003, by that certain Third
Amendment to Credit Agreement and Consent, dated as of May 27, 2003 and by that
certain Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2003 (as
amended, the "Credit Agreement"), providing for the availability of a revolving
credit facility to the Borrower upon the terms and conditions set forth therein.
Capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meanings given
to them in the Credit Agreement.
B. The Borrower has requested that the Credit Agreement be amended (a) to
exclude the net termination obligations of the Borrower under Swap Agreements
from the definition of "Debt" for certain purposes under the Credit Agreement,
and (b) to increase the required ratio of Consolidated Debt to Consolidated
EBITDA as described herein. Such amendments require the consent of the Required
Lenders under Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement.
C. The Borrower has also informed the Agent and the Lenders that it
proposes, through its wholly owned subsidiary, PHC-Las Cruces, Inc., a New
Mexico corporation ("PHC - Las Cruces"), to acquire by lease a hospital located
at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxxxxx in Las Cruces, New Mexico and related assets
(the "Las Cruces Hospital") for an aggregate Acquisition Amount not to exceed
$165,000,000 (the "Las Cruces Acquisition"). The Las Cruces Acquisition requires
the consent of the Required Lenders under Sections 5.12 and 6.7 of the Credit
Agreement.
D. The Borrower has also notified the Agent that it will not consummate
the acquisition of a single licensed hospital located in Paris, Texas that was
consented to by the Required Lenders pursuant to that certain Credit Agreement
Consent, dated as of December 5, 2003 (the "Paris, Texas Acquisition Consent"),
between the Borrower, certain Lenders and the Agent, and that the Borrower has
no obligations to Christus St. Joseph's Health System with respect thereto.
E. The Borrower has also informed the Agent and the Lenders that it seeks
to exclude for certain purposes under the Credit Agreement non-cash asset
impairment charges and
non-cash losses from sale not exceeding $15,000,000 in the aggregate (the
"Glades Non-Cash Loss") resulting from the proposed sale of Glades General
Hospital to the Health Care District of Palm Beach County scheduled to close on
or about April 30, 2004. The exclusion of the Glades Non-Cash Loss requires the
consent of the Required Lenders under Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement.
F. The Borrower has also informed the Agent and the Lenders that it seeks
to extend the deadline for the Havasu Regional Medical Center transactions
approved by the Required Lenders on the terms and subject to the conditions of
the Consent, dated as of October 28, 2003 (the "Havasu Consent"), between the
Borrower, certain Lenders and the Agent, from March 31, 2004 to June 30, 2004.
Such extension requires the consent of the Required Lenders under Section 10.8
of the Credit Agreement.
G. The Borrower has also informed the Lenders that it seeks to cause
PHC-Xxxxxx, Inc., a Louisiana corporation ("PHC-Eunice"), to contribute
substantially all of the assets of Xxxxxx Community Medical Center (the "Eunice
Hospital") to Xxxxxx Community Medical Center, LLC, a Delaware limited liability
company ("Eunice LLC"), in exchange for at least 70% of the Capital Stock of
Xxxxxx LLC, which will be owned by PHC-Xxxxxx and/or another wholly owned
Subsidiary of the Borrower (the "Contribution Transaction"). The Credit
Agreement does not currently permit the Contribution Transaction, and,
therefore, the consent of the Required Lenders is required under Section 10.8 of
the Credit Agreement.
H. The Borrower has also informed the Lenders that it seeks to use up to
$40,000,000 to repurchase a portion of the 4-1/4% Subordinated Notes and/or the
4-1/2% Subordinated Notes from the holders thereof. Such repurchase requires the
consent of the Required Lenders under Section 10.8 of the Credit Agreement.
I. The Required Lenders have agreed to the amendments and consents
described above on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein.
