Town Sports International Holdings Inc (CLUB: Quote) announced that it has successfully completed a repricing of its currently outstanding $270.7 million senior secured term loan, reducing current interest rates on the term loan by a total of 125 basis points.

The repricing was effected through an amendment to the Company's existing credit agreement. The amendment reduced the applicable margin on the initial term loans from 4.50% to 3.50% for Base Rate Loans and from 5.50% to 4.50% for Eurodollar Loans and reduced the interest rate floor on the initial term loans from 2.50% to 2.25% for Base Rate Loans and from 1.50% to 1.25% for Eurodollar Loans.

The credit agreement was also amended to convert the existing voluntary prepayment penalty from a 101 hard call provision, originally scheduled to end in May 2013, to a 101 soft call provision ending in August 2013.

The company stated that all other principal provisions, including maturity and covenants under the Company's existing credit agreement, comprised of the term loan facility and a $50 million revolving credit facility, remain unchanged.

The company said it expects to incur approximately $4.1 million in fees and expenses in connection with the amendment, including a 1.0% amendment fee of $2.7 million and $1.4 million of related bank and legal fees.

Stocks moved sharply higher over the course of the trading day on Friday, more than offsetting the weakness seen on Thursday. In a reversal from the previous session, the markets benefited from some upbeat U.S. economic data as well as comments from a Federal Reserve official. The major averages saw further upside going into the close, with the Dow and the S&P 500 reaching new record highs. As the IRS targeting scandal continues to make headlines, animal-protection charity People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, or PETA, claims that conservative groups are not the only ones that have faced increased scrutiny from the agency. While the IRS targeting scandal has taken center stage on Capitol Hill on Friday, the results of a new Gallup poll showed that the American public's interest in the story is comparatively low based on historical measures. The poll showed that 54 percent of Americans are following the news that the IRS targeted conservative groups for greater scrutiny "very" or "somewhat" closely.
