Item 1.01 | ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT |
See Item 2.03 below.
Item 2.03 | CREATION OF A DIRECT FINANCIAL OBLIGATION OR AN OBLIGATION UNDER AN OFF-BALANCE SHEET ARRANGEMENT OF A REGISTRANT |
On April 14, 2020, General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (“GM Financial”) and General Motors Company (“GM”) renewed its 364-Day Revolving Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent and the other lenders named therein (the “Facility”). The Facility is unsecured, provides available borrowing capacity of $1.95 billion and matures on April 13, 2021.
The Facility is available to GM, GM Financial and certain other wholly owned subsidiaries of GM. However, GM has allocated the Facility for exclusive use by GM Financial. The Facility allows for borrowing in U.S. Dollars only.
GM has guaranteed the obligations of subsidiary borrowers under the Facility. Consistent with the terms of GM’s current revolving credit facilities, if GM fails to maintain an investment grade corporate rating from two or more of the following credit rating agencies: Fitch Ratings, Moody’s Investors Service and Standard & Poor’s, GM will be required to cause certain of GM’s domestic subsidiaries to guarantee GM’s obligations under the terms of the Facility.
Interest rates on obligations under the Facility are based on prevailing annual interest rates for Eurodollar loans or an alternative base rate, both subject to an applicable margin. This applicable margin will be based upon the credit rating assigned to the Facility or to senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness of GM.
The Facility contains representations, warranties and covenants that are typical for this type of facility. These covenants include restrictions on mergers or sales of assets and secured debt borrowings, subject to exceptions and limitations. The Facility also requires that GM maintain at least $4.0 billion in global liquidity and at least $2.0 billion in U.S. liquidity.
Some of the lenders under the Facility, and their affiliates, have various relationships with GM Financial and its subsidiaries involving the provision of financial services, including cash management, investment banking, trust and leasing services, and foreign exchange and other derivative arrangements.
The foregoing description does not constitute a complete summary of the Facility and is qualified by reference in its entirety to the full text of the Facility filed herewith.
