We also assigned a `BB+' bank loan rating to Brocade's proposed aggregate $1.125 billion senior secured credit facilities, consisting of a $1 billion five-year term loan and a $125 million revolver. The recovery rating on the credit facilities is `1', indicating expectations for very high (90%-100%) recovery in the event of a default. We also assigned preliminary senior unsecured and subordinated ratings of 'BB-' and 'B', respectively, to debt securities that may be issued under Brocade's recent $750 million universal shelf registration.
