| Item 1.01. | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On December 16, 2011, Xerox Corporation (“Xerox” or “we”) refinanced its $2.0 billion unsecured revolving credit facility that was executed in April 2007 (the “2007 Credit Facility”). This new $2 billion facility is a five year commitment maturing in 2016 with a group of lenders that includes affiliates of Citibank, N.A., J.P Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and BNP Paribas as lead arrangers and bookrunners (the “New Facility”). A majority of the lenders that participated in the 2007 Credit Facility are participating in the New Facility. Pricing, which is determined from a ratings grid based on our public debt ratings, includes a borrowing rate of LIBOR + 1.175% and an annual commitment fee of 20 bps, based on our current ratings. The New Facility contains a $300 million letter of credit subfacility, and also includes an accordion feature that would allow us to increase (from time to time, with willing lenders) the overall size of the facility up to an aggregate amount not to exceed $2.75 billion. We have the right to request a one year extension on each of the first and second anniversary dates.
The New Facility provides a backstop to Xerox’s publicly registered $2 billion commercial paper program. Proceeds from any borrowings under the New Facility would be used to provide working capital for Xerox and its subsidiaries and for general corporate purposes.
Our obligations under the New Facility are unsecured and are not guaranteed by any of our subsidiaries. However, if in the future any of our domestic subsidiaries guarantee any debt for money borrowed by Xerox of more than $100 million, that subsidiary is required to guaranty Xerox’s obligations under the New Facility as well. In the event any of our subsidiaries borrows under the New Facility, its borrowings thereunder would be guaranteed by Xerox.
The New Facility contains various affirmative, negative and financial maintenance covenants, conditions to borrowing and events of default.
The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the New Facility is not complete and is in all respects subject to the actual provisions of the New Facility, a copy of which has been filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
The lenders or their affiliates have in the past engaged, and may in the future engage, in transactions with and perform services, including commercial banking, financial advisory and investment banking services, for Xerox and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business for which they have received or will receive customary fees and expenses.
