YOUR OPERATIONAL LEASING SOLUTION
TOUAX Group is delighted to announce that TOUAX Rail Limited a wholly owned Irish subsidiary of the TOUAX Group completed the refinancing of a €55 million syndicated Senior Secured Credit Facility (the "Facility"). The Facility was provided to one of Touax Rail Limited's majority owned subsidiaries.
The term of the €55 million Facility is 5 years including scheduled amortization. Proceeds of the Facility are used to refinance an existing fleet of approximately 930 wagons managed by Touax Rail Limited.
The Facility is non-recourse to TOUAX Group and is attractively priced with a spread of 2% over Euribor, in line with the Group's expectations. To reduce interest rate risk, 90% of the Facility is hedged with an interest rate swap for the term of the Facility.
The Facility was provided by a syndicate of three industry banks of which ING Commercial Banking acted as agent, hedge-provider, mandated arranger and senior lender, DVB SE acted as mandated arranger, senior lender and global security trustee and Crédit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank who acted as mandated arranger and senior lender.
