Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 15, 2015, Snap-on Incorporated (“Snap-on”) entered into a five-year, $700 million multi-currency revolving credit facility that terminates on December 15, 2020 (the “New Facility”). This New Facility amends and restates Snap-on’s previous $700 million multi-currency revolving credit facility that was set to terminate on September 27, 2018. As of December 15, 2015, no amounts were outstanding under either facility. Borrowings under the New Facility will bear interest at varying rates based on either (i) Snap-on’s then-current, long-term debt ratings; or (ii) Snap-on’s then-current ratio of consolidated debt net of certain cash adjustments (“Consolidated Net Debt”) to the sum of such Consolidated Net Debt plus total equity and less accumulated other comprehensive income or loss (the “Leverage Ratio”). The interest rate on borrowings under the New Facility will initially be LIBOR plus 91 basis points.
The New Facility requires that Snap-on maintain, as of each fiscal quarter end, either (i) a Leverage Ratio not greater than 0.60 to 1.00; or (ii) a ratio not greater than 3.50 to 1.00 of Consolidated Net Debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization and certain other adjustments for the preceding four fiscal quarters then ended (the “Debt to EBITDA Ratio”). Snap-on may, up to two times during any five-year period during the term of the New Facility (including any extensions thereof), increase the maximum Leverage Ratio to 0.65 to 1.00 and/or increase the maximum Debt to EBITDA Ratio to 3.75 to 1.00 for four consecutive fiscal quarters in connection with certain material acquisitions (as defined in the related credit agreement).
The foregoing description of the New Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Second Amended and Restated Five Year Credit Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2015, among Snap-on and each lender and agent listed on the signature pages thereof, with respect to which J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and U.S. Bank National Association acted as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners, filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
