Chicago, Dec. 20 – Hain Celestial Group, Inc. secured a lender waiver until Feb. 27 under its credit facility with Bank of America, NA as administrative agent, according to an 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Hain entered into a second limited waiver and extension to the amended credit agreement dated Dec. 12, 2014. Bank of America Merrill Lynch International Ltd. is the global swingline lender; Wells Fargo Bank, NA is the syndication agent; JPMorgan Chase Bank, NA, Citizens Bank, NA and Farm Credit East, ACA are the documentation agents.
As announced Sept. 26, Hain had received a waiver and extension until Dec. 27 to deliver its fiscal year 2016 financial statements and, if necessary, its first-quarter financial statements for fiscal year 2017.

The $1 billion revolving credit facility is set to mature in December 2019 and may be increased by another $350 million.
As of June 30, there was $828 million of debt under the credit agreement, including borrowings used to redeem $150 million of senior notes and for the $114 million acquisition of Orchard House Foods in December 2015.
