Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 9, 2016, PharMerica Corporation (the “Corporation”) entered into a First Amendment (“Amendment”) to its existing Credit Agreement with the subsidiary loan parties thereto (the “Subsidiary Loan Parties”), the lender parties thereto, including The Huntington National Bank (collectively, the “Lenders”), and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) was previously entered into on September 17, 2014, by and among the Corporation, the lenders party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swingline lender, and an issuing bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agent, and U.S. Bank, National Association, Citibank, N.A., MUFG Union Bank, N.A., BBVA Compass Bank and Suntrust Bank as co-documentation agents. Pursuant to the Amendment, among other things, (a) the revolving commitments to the Revolving Credit Facility were increased by $60,000,000 (from $310,000,000 to $370,000,000), (b) an additional advance under the Term Loan A was provided in an outstanding principal amount equal to $89,062,500, which, when combined with the $210,937,500 outstanding under the Term Loan A as of the date of the Amendment, equals $300,000,000 outstanding under the Term Loan A, (c) the amount by which commitments may be increased after the initial closing was increased from $190,000,000 to $200,000,000, and (d) The Huntington National Bank was added as a new lender to the Credit Agreement. The foregoing summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Corporation’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ending on December 31, 2016.  Except as otherwise expressly provided by the Amendment, all of the respective terms, conditions and provisions of the Credit Agreement and the other loan documents remain the same.

 

Certain of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, and their affiliates have provided and may continue to provide investment banking, commercial banking, financial services, or other services to the Corporation and its affiliates. They have received, and may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for their services.
