Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Effective May 18, 2018, our wholly-owned subsidiary, Brewster Inc., executed the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement and Reaffirmation of Guaranties (the “Second Amendment”) to its revolving credit facility, dated as of December 28, 2016 and amended on December 6, 2017, with BMO Harris Bank N.A. (the “Credit Facility”). BMO Harris Bank N.A. is a lender under our existing $300,000,000 credit facility (the “Viad Credit Facility”).

 

The Second Amendment increases the amount available under the Credit Facility to $30,000,000.

 

Other than in respect of the Credit Facility, the Viad Credit Facility, and an existing commercial banking relationship, neither we, nor our affiliates have any material relationships with BMO Harris Bank N.A. This description of the Amendment is qualified by reference to the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 4.B4 and is incorporated by reference herein.
