Item 1.01 Entry Into Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 1, 2019 (the “Closing Date”), Infinera Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $100 million (the “Credit Facility”), which the Company may draw upon from time to time. The Company may increase the total commitments under the Credit Facility by up to an additional $50 million, subject to certain conditions. In addition, the Credit Agreement provides for a $50 million letter of credit subfacility and a $10 million swingline loan facility. The proceeds of the loans under the Credit Agreement may be used to pay the fees, costs, and expenses incurred in connection with the Credit Agreement and for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Facility matures, and all outstanding loans become due and payable, on March 5, 2024. There were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility as of the Closing Date.

Availability under the Credit Facility will be based upon periodic borrowing base certifications valuing certain of the Loan Parties’ (as defined below) inventory and accounts receivable, as reduced by certain reserves. Outstanding borrowings accrue interest at floating rates plus an applicable margin of 2.00% to 2.50% for LIBOR rate loans and 1.00% to 1.50% for base rate loans. The commitment fee payable on the unused portion of the Credit Facility is equal to 0.375% to 0.625% per annum based on utilization of the Credit Facility.

Certain domestic subsidiaries (the “Guarantors” and, together with the Company, the “Loan Parties”) of the Company provided an unconditional guaranty of all amounts owing under the Credit Agreement and related credit documents. Pursuant to that certain Guaranty and Security Agreement (the “Guaranty and Security Agreement”), dated as of August 1, 2019, the Loan Parties have also granted first-priority (subject to certain exceptions) security interests in their respective accounts, inventory, certain related assets, specified deposit accounts, and certain other accounts to secure the obligations under the Credit Agreement and the related credit documents. Future domestic material subsidiaries are also required to become a party to the Guaranty and Security Agreement.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative covenants, such as financial statement reporting requirements and delivery of borrowing base certificates. The Credit Agreement also contains customary covenants that limit the ability of the Loan Parties and their subsidiaries to, among other things, incur debt, create liens and encumbrances, engage in certain fundamental changes, dispose of assets, prepay certain indebtedness, make restricted payments, make investments, and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum amount of liquidity.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default, such as the failure to pay obligations when due, a material breach of representations and warranties or covenants, the entry of material judgments against the Loan Parties or their subsidiaries, the initiation of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings of the Loan Parties or their domestic material subsidiaries, defaults on certain other indebtedness, a change of control, the failure of the guaranty of the Guarantors to be in effect or the failure of the security documents to create valid and perfected liens or the loan documents to be valid and enforceable. Upon an event of default, the lenders may, subject to customary cure rights, require the immediate payment of all amounts outstanding and foreclose on collateral.
