The cash portion of the Purchase Consideration was funded using cash on hand and £63.8 million pounds sterling borrowed under Euronet's revolving credit facility. Interest on borrowings under the revolving credit facility varies based upon Euronet's consolidated total leverage ratio, as defined in Euronet's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, and is based on a margin over London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or a margin over a base rate. The interest rate on the borrowed amount on May 19, 2014 was 1.73%.
At closing, £9.5 million pounds sterling of the cash portion of the Purchase Consideration and all of the Euronet Common Stock were placed in escrow to be held until May 20, 2016 as security for the Sellers' indemnification and other obligations.
