As previously disclosed, WillScot Corporation, a Delaware corporation
("WillScot"), Mobile Mini, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Mobile Mini" or the
"Company"), and Picasso Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly
owned subsidiary of WillScot ("Merger Sub"), entered into an Agreement and Plan
of Merger dated March 1, 2020, as amended by that certain Amendment to Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated May 28, 2020 (as amended, the "Merger Agreement")
pursuant to which, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary
closing conditions, Merger Sub will be merged with and into Mobile Mini, with
Mobile Mini surviving as a wholly-owned subsidiary of WillScot (the "Merger" or
the "Proposed Transaction").
New ABL Facility
As previously disclosed, on March 1, 2020, WillScot entered into a commitment
letter (as amended and restated on May 26, 2020 for the purpose of joining an
additional financial institution, the "Commitment Letter") pursuant to which
certain financial institutions have committed to provide a senior secured asset
based revolving credit facility (the "New ABL Facility") in an aggregate
principal amount of $2.4 billion. The New ABL Facility will be entered into
concurrently with the consummation of the Merger and the proceeds of the New ABL
Facility will be available to (x) refinance the existing ABL credit facilities
of Mobile Mini and WillScot and to redeem the Mobile Mini 2024 Notes (defined
below) and (y) pay the fees, costs and expenses incurred in connection with the
Merger and the related transactions, subject to customary conditions.
The New ABL Facility has been syndicated to a number of additional financial
institutions and pricing under the New ABL Facility has been modified in
connection therewith. Borrowings under the New ABL Facility are expected to bear
interest at (i) in the case of US Dollars, at the applicable US Borrower's
option, either an adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.875% or alternative base rate plus
0.875%, (ii) in the case of Canadian Dollars, at the applicable Canadian
Borrower's option, either a Canadian BA rate plus 1.875% or Canadian prime rate
plus 0.875%, and (iii) in the case of Euros and British Pounds Sterling, an
adjusted LIBOR rate plus 1.875%. Each such interest rate shall be subject, at
the end of each fiscal quarter (commencing at the end of the first fiscal
quarter that begins after completion of the Merger) to (x) an increase of 0.25%,
if the daily average availability to be drawn under the New ABL Facility during
the preceding fiscal quarter exceeds 66.7% of total availability thereunder, or
(y) a decrease of 0.25%, if the daily average availability to be drawn under the
New ABL Facility during the preceding fiscal quarter is less than 33.3% of total
availability thereunder, in each case, relative to the interest rates set forth
in the preceding sentence.
Redemption of Mobile Mini's 5.850% Senior Notes due 2024
In connection with the Merger Agreement, on June 3, 2020, Mobile Mini gave
notice of its intent to redeem (the "Mobile Mini Redemption") all $250.0 million
aggregate principal amount of its 5.850% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "Mobile Mini
Notes").
The Mobile Mini Notes are expected to be redeemed on the later of (i) the second
business day following the consummation of the Merger and (ii) July 3, 2020
(such date, the "Mobile Mini Redemption Date"). In accordance with the terms of
the Mobile Mini Notes and the Indenture, dated as of May 9, 2016, among the
Company, each of the subsidiary guarantors party thereto and Deutsche Bank Trust
Company Americas, as Trustee (the "Indenture"), the Mobile Mini Notes will be
redeemed at a redemption price equal to 102.938% of the principal amount of the
Mobile Mini Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest and Additional Interest (as
defined in the Indenture), if any, to the Mobile Mini Redemption Date.

Secured Notes due 2022
On June 1, 2020, WillScot announced that its indirect subsidiary, Williams
Scotsman International, Inc. ("WSII"), is conditionally calling for redemption
(the "WSII Redemption") all $270.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its
outstanding 7.875% Senior Secured Notes due 2022 (the "WSII Notes") on July 1,
2020 (the "WSII Notes Redemption Date"). The WSII Redemption is subject to and
conditioned upon (i) the completion by WSII or one of its subsidiaries of an
issuance of at least $500.0 million aggregate principal amount of notes and the
release of such funds to the issuer from escrow, if applicable, no later than
the WSII Notes Redemption Date, and (ii) the completion of the Merger.
This Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption with respect to the
Mobile Mini Notes or the WSII Notes.

New WSII Notes Offering
In connection with the Merger, Picasso Finance Sub, Inc., a newly-formed finance
subsidiary of WSII (the "Issuer"), priced its offering of $650.0 million in
aggregate principal amount of 6.125% senior secured notes due 2025 (the "New
WSII Notes") on June 1, 2020. The offering is expected to be consummated on
June 15, 2020.
If the offering is consummated, the gross proceeds thereof will be deposited by
the initial purchasers into a segregated escrow account pursuant to an escrow
and security agreement. Concurrently with the closing of the Merger and the
satisfaction of certain other escrow conditions, the escrowed proceeds will be
released to fund, together with funds drawn under the New ABL Facility, the
repayment of all outstanding indebtedness under each of WillScot's and Mobile
Mini's existing ABL credit facilities, the Mobile Mini Redemption and the WSII
Redemption (collectively, the "Refinancing Transactions") and to pay fees and
expenses related to the Refinancing Transactions and the Merger.
