Item 2.03 Creation of Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

SBA Senior Finance, Inc. (“SBA Senior Finance”), a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of SBA Communications Corporation, maintains a senior credit facility (“credit facility”) with a syndicate of lenders, in the amount of $400.0 million. The credit facility consists of a $275.0 million term loan which was funded at closing, a $50.0 million delayed draw term loan and a $75.0 million revolving line of credit. On November 8, 2004, we borrowed $20.0 million available on the delayed draw term loan. This borrowing will accrue interest at LIBOR plus 3.50% (5.85% as of the date of the borrowing) and will amortize at a quarterly rate of 0.25%, maturing on October 31, 2008.

 

The credit facility requires SBA Senior Finance to maintain specified financial ratios, including ratios regarding its debt to annualized operating cash flow, debt service, cash interest expense and fixed charges for each quarter. The credit facility also contains affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, restricts SBA Senior Finance’s ability to incur debt and liens, sell assets, commit to capital expenditures, enter into affiliate transactions or sale-leaseback transactions, and/or build towers without anchor tenants. The credit facility agreement was filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report of Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2003.
