TPG Knights of Wallstreet > How To Make A Killing on Burger King
Connecting Success Factors to Bennett
The Dubious Phone Call and Time Wasting Project
The folks at TPG will have to answer to my Whistleblower Complaints on the truly odd collection of RFPs emanating from companies connected to Richard Blum, William McGlashan, CBRE, Regency Centers, Trammel Crow, Lennar, Catellus.My story is about witness murders, private equity, mergers and acquisitions linked back to the Matter of Bennett v. Southern Pacific lost in 1989. It was a winnable case as long the witnesses testified.

Private equity is going back for a second helping of Burger King.
Call them gluttonous, but private equity has done well by Burger King, even if customers have grown wary of the Whopper maker. (Sales are lagging rival McDonald’s, even amid the recession when fast food usually outperforms)
A brief recap: In 2002, a consortium of PE investors including TPG Capital LLC, Bain Capital LLC and Goldman Sachs bought the then – struggling hamburger chain from Diageo PLC for roughly $1.5 billion. The group kicked in just $325 million of its own money and borrowed the rest.
Shortly before the IPO in 2006, Burger King borrowed $350 million and promptly paid the investors a $367 million dividend.
The IPO raised $425 million, which was less than the $600 million that was expected, but a nice haul nonetheless for the King’s PE investors.
Add it all up — not including those sundry management, deal and other fees — and the private-equity group collected roughly $800 million by the time of the IPO.
Not too shabby.

Since it was founded by David Bonderman and Jim Coulter in 1992, TPG Capital has grown to become a major force in the buyout industry, raising some of biggest private equity funds ever (including one that nearly reached $20 billion) and carrying out some of the highest-profile takeovers in history.
But unlike rivals such as Blackstone, KKR and Apollo Global Management, TPG has never gone public, instead remaining a partnership and eschewing the chance to find new shareholders on the stock market.
And that's the way Coulter and Jon Winkelried, who succeeded Bonderman as co-CEO in 2015, plan to keep it. After considering its alternatives, the buyout shop will not go public in the immediate future and will instead continue to operate as a private partnership, according to Bloomberg. Rather than selling shares directly to the public, the firm will reportedly examine other financing options, including the potential sale of a stake in itself to private investors.
The report comes as some of TPG's biggest rivals are taking or considering even larger steps away from the traditional PE model. In the wake of major US tax reform, KKR officially switched from a partnership to a corporation in July in hopes of reducing its payments to Uncle Sam. Blackstone has reportedly considered following suit, though it's unclear if the firm will ultimately make the switch. One reason for TPG's choice to stay private, perhaps, is that both have had only middling success growing their stock prices since going public.
Another reason might be the ease with which TPG is already raising new cash from LPs. Earlier in August, the firm topped $10 billion in total commitments for its eighth flagship fund and a separate vehicle focused on healthcare deals, according to Axios. Those funds reportedly have targets of $11 billion and $2.5 billion, respectively, and represent TPG's follow-ups to a $10.5 billion flagship fund that closed in 2016.
The firm—which maintains offices in San Francisco and Fort Worth, TX—has been just as busy on the dealmaking front, with 29 completed transactions so far in 2018, per the PitchBook Platform. Three of those were worth more than a billion dollars each. In January, TPG bought cable company Wave Broadband for some $2.4 billion. And in July, it teamed with Welsh, Carson, Anderson & Stowe and Humana on two separate deals, buying hospital operator Kindred Healthcare for some $4.1 billion and hospice car provider Curo Health Services for $1.4 billion.

Avaya Holdings Corp. (“Avaya Holdings”) is filing this registration statement on Form 10 pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) because we are seeking to list our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, on the New York Stock Exchange.
Once the registration of our common stock becomes effective, we will be subject to the requirements of Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act, including the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, which will require us to file, among other things, annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and proxy statements with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, and we will be required to comply with all other obligations of the Exchange Act applicable to issuers filing registration statements pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act.
Our periodic and current reports will be available on our website, https://investors.avaya.com/financial-info/sec-filings, free of charge, as soon as reasonably practicable after such materials are filed with, or furnished to, the SEC.
On January 19, 2017, Avaya Inc. and certain of its affiliates, including Avaya Holdings (the “Debtor Affiliates” and, together with Avaya Inc., the “Debtors”), commenced chapter 11 cases (the “Bankruptcy Filing”) in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Bankruptcy Court”). The Debtors completed the Restructuring (as defined below) and emerged from chapter 11 proceedings on December 15, 2017.
On the date of the Bankruptcy Filing, the capital structure of the Company, Avaya Inc. and the Debtor Affiliates and non-Debtor Affiliates (collectively, the “Avaya Enterprise”) included approximately $6.0 billion in funded debt. The majority of this funded debt was a legacy of the 2007 transaction in which the Avaya Enterprise was taken private. The remainder of the funded debt originated as part of the Avaya Enterprise’s 2009 acquisition of Nortel Enterprise Systems. In addition to this indebtedness, the following challenges led the Debtors to commence the chapter 11 cases in January 2017:
• | Business model shift: The decline in economic activity between 2008 and 2010, together with the market trends away from hardware-based business communications under the capital expenditure model towards software and services offerings under the operating expense model, had a substantial impact on the Avaya Enterprise’s operations. The Avaya Enterprise also faced ongoing competition to its core Unified Communications Product and Service offerings from numerous competitors such as Cisco and Microsoft. In light of these factors, the Avaya Enterprise experienced significant revenue declines over the past several years. |
• | Substantial annual cash requirements: The Avaya Enterprise’s cash flow profile was negatively impacted by the substantial costs associated with its debt load, which increased over the last decade. Annual cash interest payments averaged approximately $440 million since fiscal 2014, with a corresponding impact on cash flow available to fund the research, development and other investments required to remain competitive in the market. From fiscal 2014 to fiscal 2016, annual cash requirements averaged approximately $900 million, including: (a) approximately $440 million in cash interest payments and (b) annual pension and other post-retirement employment benefits funding of approximately $180 million, as well as ongoing cash needs related to restructuring costs, capital expenditures and cash taxes. |
• | October 2017 debt maturities: Approximately $617 million of the Debtors’ indebtedness was scheduled to mature in October 2017. |
On April 13, 2017, the Debtors filed a Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Avaya Inc. and its Debtor Affiliates and related disclosure statement for the Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Avaya Inc. and its

Debtor Affiliates. On August 7, 2017, the Debtors filed the First Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Avaya Inc. and its Debtor Affiliates (as amended, the “First Amended Plan of Reorganization”) and related disclosure statement for the First Amended Joint Chapter 11 Plan of Reorganization of Avaya Inc. and its Debtor Affiliates (the “Amended Disclosure Statement”). The Bankruptcy Court signed an order approving the Amended Disclosure Statement on August 25, 2017. On September 8, 2017, the Debtors filed the solicitation versions of the First Amended Plan of Reorganization and Amended Disclosure Statement. On September 9, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court assigned the Debtors and their major stakeholder constituencies to mediation. The mediation resulted in a resolution between these constituencies, and, as a result, the Debtors filed a further amended plan of reorganization, the Second Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization (as amended, the “Plan of Reorganization”), and a Disclosure Statement Supplement on October 24, 2017. On November 28, 2017, the Bankruptcy Court entered an order confirming the Debtors’ Plan of Reorganization, which, among other things, provided for the following treatments for certain creditor and equity classes:
• | First lien debt claims: pro rata share of (i) new secured debt (or cash to the extent such debt is partially or fully syndicated) to be issued in connection with the Restructuring (as defined below) and (ii) 90.5% of the reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the post-Emergence Date (as defined below) equity incentive plan, that provides for reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock, or other interests in Avaya Holdings, on a fully diluted basis, to be reserved for directors, officers and employees of the Debtors (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and the Warrants (as defined below)) less the reservation of up to 2.55% of the reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the Equity Incentive Plan and the Warrants) to be established on or prior to the Emergence Date for pro rata distributions on account of general unsecured claims (the “General Unsecured Recovery Equity Reserve”). |
• | Second lien notes claims: pro rata share of 4.0% of the reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the Equity Incentive Plan and the Warrants) and a pro rata share of warrants to acquire 5.0% of reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the Equity Incentive Plan) (the “Warrants”). |
• | General unsecured claims: pro rata share of the $58 million general unsecured recovery pool, which the general unsecured creditors may irrevocably elect to receive as reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the Equity Incentive Plan and the Warrants) or cash proceeds (pursuant to an election submitted prior to the applicable voting deadline). |
• | Claims of Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (“PBGC”) in connection with the termination of the Avaya Inc. Pension Plan for Salaried Employees (“APPSE”): (i) $340 million in cash and (ii) 5.5% of the reorganized Avaya Holdings’ common stock (subject to dilution by the Equity Incentive Plan and the Warrants). |
• | Pre-emergence equity interests in Avaya Holdings: cancelled. |
The Company is not required to file this registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This registration statement shall not constitute an offer to sell, nor a solicitation of an offer to buy, its securities.
