Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement; 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 23, 2012, PetSmart, Inc. and PetSmart Store Support Group, Inc. (collectively, the “Company”) entered into a new $100 million, 5-year revolving Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent and swing line lender (the “Agent”). The Credit Facility will be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes, and includes a $100 million letter of credit sub-facility for standby and documentary letters of credit. Advances of credit issued under the Credit Facility are secured by a pledge by the Company and each guarantor of, among other things, accounts, inventory, deposit accounts, intellectual property and other general intangibles and proceeds of the foregoing. The Credit Facility contains customary events of default that permit the Agent to accelerate the Company’s outstanding obligations if not cured within applicable grace periods, including nonpayment of reimbursement obligations, fees or other amounts, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, and certain defaults under other indebtedness, and provides for automatic acceleration upon the occurrence of bankruptcy and other insolvency events. The Credit Facility replaces the Company’s existing revolving Credit Agreement dated August 15, 2007, among the Company, the Lenders Party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as issuing bank, administrative agent and collateral agent.

On March 23, 2012, the Company also entered into a new separate 5-year Letter of Credit Agreement between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as L/C Issuer (the “L/C Facility”). Maximum availability under the LC Facility is $100 million. Letters of credit issued under the LC Facility are secured by a pledge by the Company of cash and cash equivalents. The Agreement contains customary events of default that permit the Wells Fargo Bank to accelerate the Company’s outstanding obligations if not cured within applicable grace periods, including nonpayment of reimbursement obligations, fees or other amounts, violation of covenants, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, and certain defaults under other indebtedness, and provides for automatic acceleration upon the occurrence of bankruptcy and other insolvency events. The L/C Facility replaces the Company’s existing Letter of Credit Agreement dated June 30, 2006, and amended on May 13, 2009, between the Company and Bank of America, N.A.

The above descriptions are a summary and are qualified in their entirety by the terms of the agreements governing the Credit Facility and L/C Facility, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
