ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
ITEM 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On November 21, 2014, MasTec, Inc., a Florida corporation (“MasTec” or the “Company”), together with certain of the Company’s subsidiaries, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender, L/C Issuer and a Lender, and the other lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”), entered into a fourth amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of August 22, 2011, as amended (the “Credit Agreement”). MasTec entered into the Amendment in connection with its previously announced evaluation of its debt structure, which is intended to ensure ample liquidity and financial flexibility to pursue growth opportunities.

Pursuant to the Amendment, certain Lenders extended to MasTec a new term loan A in the aggregate principal amount of $250.0 million (the “Term Loan A”), following which aggregate commitments under the Credit Agreement, both drawn and undrawn, totaled $1.25 billion. Interest on the Term Loan A accrues at variable rates based, at MasTec’s option, on a eurocurrency rate or a base rate, in each case plus a margin which is equivalent to the margin applicable to revolving obligations under the Credit Agreement. The scheduled maturity date of the Term Loan A is November 21, 2019. The Term Loan A is also subject to amortization in quarterly principal installments of $3,125,000 (subject to reduction as a result of the application of certain prepayments in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement), commencing as of the quarter ending March 31, 2016 and continuing for each fiscal quarter thereafter. MasTec used all net proceeds from the Term Loan A to repay certain other outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Agreement. Except as described in this Current Report on Form 8-K, the material terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.
