MOOG ANNOUNCES NEW BANK FACILITY
East Aurora, NY, Moog Inc. (NYSE: MOG.A AND MOG.B) announced it has closed on a new secured
$900 million, five-year revolving credit facility. The new thirteen-bank arrangement replaces a
$750 million revolving credit facility that would have matured in March of 2013. In addition to
the increase in the facility size, the new agreement contains an accordion feature, which provides
an opportunity to upsize the facility by an additional $200 million.
Terms and conditions of the new credit arrangement are similar to the previous agreement and have
been updated to reflect the companys growth over the last several years and its enhanced credit
profile. Grid based interest pricing based upon the companys leverage will start at LIBOR plus
175 basis points under the new arrangement, the same as in the previous facility.
HSBC Bank acted as Lead Arranger for the new facility. M&T Bank was the Lead Syndication Agent,
with Bank of America and JPMorgan Chase serving as Co-Syndication Agents, and Citizens Bank in the
capacity of Documentation Agent.
Weve successfully increased the size and refreshed the terms on our Revolving
Credit Facility, said Don Fishback, Moogs Chief Financial Officer. We are
very pleased we will continue to work with an extraordinary group of banks
who have supported our growth initiative over many years.
Upon closing, Moog had approximately $550 million in borrowing capacity under the new arrangement.
