Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 2, 2016, BWX Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement dated May 11, 2015 with Bank of America N.A., as Administrative Agent, and certain lenders and letter of credit issuers party thereto (the "Amendment").
Among other changes to the Credit Agreement, the Amendment adds a new US dollar term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $112.5 million and a new Canadian dollar term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to the equivalent of $137.5 million US dollars (collectively, the "Incremental Term Loans"), neither of which count against the $250 million limit for incremental term loan, revolving credit borrowings and letter of credit commitments contained in the Credit Agreement. Each of the Incremental Term Loans may be drawn in a single drawing at any time prior to December 31, 2016. If drawn, each Incremental Term Loan will mature on June 30, 2020, and the Company will be required to make quarterly amortization payments in an amount equal to 1.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental Term Loans that are utilized. The proceeds of the Incremental Term Facilities shall be used for working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions and other lawful corporate purposes.
A commitment fee of 0.175% per year will be charged on the unused commitments for the Incremental Term Loans. If drawn, the interest rates applicable to the Incremental Term Loans will be substantially the same as the interest rates applicable to the existing revolving credit facility and term loan set forth in the original Credit Agreement (except for certain modifications in the Amendment to reflect the eurocurrency rate applicable to the Canadian dollar term loan). In connection with entering into the Amendment, the Company paid certain upfront fees to the lenders that committed to fund Incremental Term Loans, and the Company paid an arrangement fee to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety to the complete text of the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated by reference herein.
