Scotia Capital and TD Securities are lead arrangers for the new credit facility, which includes a syndicate of 11 Canadian, U.S., and international banks.

"The commitment of our banking syndicate shows continued support of CAE's market leadership in simulation and modelling technologies and integrated training solutions, and acknowledges our sound financial position," said Alain Raquepas, CAE's Chief Financial Officer.

The new revolving credit facility will expire in April 2013. It maintains CAE's borrowing flexibility and provides continued liquidity within a strong capital structure. The facility will be used for general corporate purposes and to facilitate growth opportunities.
