Item 8.01  Other Events.
On May 23, 2018, Harris Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, on behalf of themselves and the several underwriters named therein, with respect to the offering and sale of $850 million aggregate principal amount of 4.400% Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”) in an underwritten public offering by the Company. The offering is being made pursuant to the Company’s effective registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration Statement No. 333-213408) previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 31, 2016. The Underwriting Agreement contemplates that the Notes will be issued under an Indenture, dated as of September 3, 2003, between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as successor to The Bank of New York, as trustee. The sale of the Notes is expected to close on June 4, 2018. The foregoing summary of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the copy of the Underwriting Agreement filed herewith as Exhibit 1.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the offering of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to fund the redemption in full of all of the $400 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 4.40% notes due December 2020 (the “2020 Notes”) and $400 million aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 5.55% notes due October 2021 (the “2021 Notes”) and to pay accrued interest, fees and expenses associated with each such redemption. As previously reported on a Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company filed May 24, 2018, on May 23, 2018, the Company caused notices to be issued for the optional redemption in full of all of the 2020 Notes and the 2021 Notes, which will be redeemed on June 22, 2018. The foregoing does not constitute a notice of redemption for the 2020 Notes or the 2021 Notes.
