Introductory Note
As previously disclosed, Greenway Medical Technologies, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger on September 23, 2013 (the “Merger Agreement”) with VCG Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Parent”), and Crestview Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”). Parent and Merger Sub are beneficially owned by affiliates of Vista Equity Partners Fund IV, L.P. (“Vista”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, upon the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, Merger Sub commenced a tender offer (the “Offer”) on October 4, 2013 to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock, $0.0001 par value per share, of the Company (“Company Common Stock”) at a purchase price of $20.35 per share, without interest, net to the holder in cash (the “Offer Price”), subject to any required withholding of taxes.
On November 4, 2013, Merger Sub became the owner of more than 90% of the Company Common Stock, and in accordance with the Merger Agreement and as permitted by applicable law, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “Merger”). At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), (i) the Company was the surviving corporation in the Merger and now is a wholly-owned direct subsidiary of Parent and (ii) each outstanding share of Company Common Stock not validly tendered, accepted for payment and paid for pursuant to the Offer (other than shares of Company Common Stock owned by the Company (including treasury shares), Parent or Merger Sub, any wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company or Parent, or by stockholders of the Company who have properly exercised and perfected their demand for appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the Delaware General Corporation Law and, as of the Effective Time, have neither withdrawn nor lost their rights to appraisal) was converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, net to the holder thereof in cash without interest thereon and less any required withholding taxes. Following the Effective Time, the shares of Company Common Stock will be delisted from the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”), and will be deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the Company will no longer file periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission on account of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock.
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 4, 2013, Vitera Healthcare Solutions, LLC, as borrower (“Borrower”), and Lightning Acquisition, LLC, as a guarantor (“Guarantor”), entered into the (i) First Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2013 (the “New First Lien Credit Agreement”), with the lenders party thereto from time to time, the guarantors party thereto from time to time, and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent, collateral agent, issuing bank and swing line lender and (ii) Second Lien Credit Agreement, dated as of November 4, 2013 (the “New Second Lien Credit Agreement”), with the lenders party thereto from time to time, the guarantors party thereto from time to time, and Jefferies Finance LLC, as administrative agent and collateral agent. The New First Lien Credit Agreement provides for (i) a $360 million senior secured first lien term loan facility with a term of seven (7) years (which we refer to as the “First Lien Term Loan Facility”) and (ii) a $30 million first lien senior secured revolving credit facility with a term of five (5) years (which we refer to as the “Revolving Credit Facility” and together with the First Lien Term Loan Facility, the “First Lien Credit Facility”). The New Second Lien Credit Agreement provides for a $180 million senior secured second lien term loan facility with a term of eight (8) years (which we refer to as the “Second Lien Credit Facility” and together with the First Lien Credit Facility, each a “Credit Facility” and, collectively, the “Credit Facilities”).

Roles. Jefferies and BMO Capital Markets Corp. (“BMO Capital Markets”) have been appointed as joint lead arrangers and joint book-running managers for the Credit Facilities. Jefferies has been appointed as administrative agent for the First Lien Credit Facility and for the Second Lien Credit Facility.
Interest Rate. Loans under the Credit Facilities bear interest, at Borrower’s option, at a rate equal to the adjusted Eurodollar rate or an alternate base rate, in each case, plus a spread.
As of the closing date, at Borrower’s election, the interest rate per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Facilities will be based on a fluctuating rate of interest determined by reference to either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the higher of (a)(1) the “U.S. Prime Lending Rate” as published in The Wall Street Journal, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50% and (3) (x) a Eurodollar rate applicable for an interest period of one month, plus (y) 1.00%, in each case, plus (b) an applicable margin, or (ii) a Eurodollar rate determined by reference to LIBOR, adjusted for statutory reserve requirements, subject to a floor of 1.00%, plus an applicable margin. As of the closing date, loans under the New First Lien Credit Facilities have applicable margins equal to a range from 3.75% to 4.00%, in the case of base rate loans, and a range from 4.75% to 5.00%, in the case of Eurodollar rate loans, and loans under the New Second Lien Credit Facility have applicable margins equal to 7.25%, in the case of base rate loans, and 8.25%, in the case of Eurodollar rate loans.
Prepayments and Amortization. Borrower will be permitted to make voluntary prepayments with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility at any time, without premium or penalty (other than LIBOR breakage costs, if applicable). Borrower will be permitted to make voluntary prepayments with respect to the First Lien Term Loan Facility and Second Lien Credit Facility at any time, subject to the following prepayment premiums, and, if applicable, any LIBOR breakage costs: (i) with respect to the First Lien Term Loan Facility, in an amount equal to 1.00% of the amount prepaid prior to the date that is six (6) months from the closing date of the Credit Facilities solely to the extent such prepayment is in connection with a refinancing that reduces the effective yield of the debt which refinancing is not in connection with an acquisition-related financing, an initial public offering, or a change of control, and (ii) with respect to the Second Lien Credit Facility, in an amount equal to (a) 2.00% of the amount repaid on or prior to the date that is one (1) year from the closing date of the Credit Facilities and (b) 1.00% of the amount repaid after the date that is one (1) year from the closing date of the Credit Facilities but on or prior to the date that is two (2) years from the closing date of the Credit Facilities. The first lien term loans under the Credit Facilities will amortize 1% per annum in equal quarterly installments with the balance payable at the final maturity date. The entire principal amount of the loans under the Second Lien Credit Facility is payable at the final maturity date.
Financial Covenant. Each of the Credit Facilities includes a maximum total net funded leverage, subject to certain covenant levels as set forth in the Credit Facilities.

Guarantors. All obligations under the Credit Facilities are guaranteed by Guarantor, each existing and future direct and indirect, domestic subsidiary of Borrower and certain of its affiliates, including the Company, subject to certain limitations.
Security. The obligations of Borrower and the guarantors under the Credit Facilities and under any interest rate protection or other hedging arrangements entered into with any lender party (or any affiliates of the foregoing), will be secured, subject to permitted liens and other agreed upon exceptions by a security interest in all of Borrower’s and each guarantor’s existing or after-acquired personal property, including all of the capital stock of Borrower and all of the capital stock in first-tier, wholly-owned restricted subsidiaries directly held by Borrower or any guarantor (limited, in the case of first-tier foreign subsidiaries, to 100% of the non-voting equity interests (if any) and 65% of the voting equity interests of such subsidiaries), subject to customary exceptions.
Other Terms. The Credit Facilities contain customary representations and warranties and customary affirmative and negative covenants, including, among other things, restrictions on indebtedness, liens, investments, mergers and consolidations, sales of assets, dividends and other distributions, transactions with affiliates, prepayments of other indebtedness, modifying the organizational documents, changing lines of business, having Guarantor conduct activities other than those that are typical for a holding company, changing the fiscal year, negative pledges and burdensome agreements, sale-lease back transactions, certain restrictions on subsidiaries, and anti-terrorism law, anti-money laundering and embargoed or sanctioned persons. The representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants in the New Second Lien Credit Agreement are substantially similar to the New First Lien Credit Agreement, with customary cushions and setbacks.
The Credit Facilities contain customary events of default, including, without limitation, nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts; material inaccuracy of a representation or warranty when made; violation of the other covenants set forth in the New First Lien Credit Agreement or the New Second Lien Credit Agreement, as applicable; with respect to the New First Lien Credit Agreement, cross-default to material indebtedness, and with respect to the New Second Lien Credit Agreement, a cross-payment default to certain indebtedness under the New First Lien Credit Agreement and cross-acceleration to material indebtedness; bankruptcy events; certain ERISA events; material unsatisfied judgments; ineffectiveness or invalidity of any lien on a material portion of the collateral under the security documents; actual or asserted invalidity of any loan document; non-perfection of the security interest on a material portion of the collateral; change of control; failure to enter into certain amendments to the loan documents required pursuant to the terms of the fee letter; and the equity investors holding term loans in excess of a certain cap. The events of default in the New Second Lien Credit Agreement are substantially similar (except as mentioned above with respect to cross-acceleration as opposed to cross-default to material indebtedness and a cross-payment default to certain indebtedness under the New First Lien Credit Agreement) to the New First Lien Credit Agreement, with customary cushions and setbacks.
