ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
Revolving Credit Agreement
On June 17, 2022, FMC Corporation (the “Company”)
entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the
“Credit Agreement”) among the Company, as U.S. Borrower, certain
foreign subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, as Euro
Borrowers (the “Euro
Borrowers”
and together with the Company, the “Borrowers”),
the lenders (the “Lenders”)
and issuing banks party thereto, Citibank, N.A., as administrative
agent, Citibank, N.A. and BofA Securities, Inc., as joint lead
arrangers, Bank of America, N.A., as syndication agent, and certain
other financial institutions party thereto as co-documentation
agents (collectively, the “Credit
Parties”).
The Credit Agreement amended and restated the Fourth Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 26, 2021, by and among
the Credit Parties.
The Credit Agreement provides for a $2.0 billion revolving credit
facility, $400 million of which is available for the issuance of
letters of credit for the account of the Borrowers and $50 million
of which is available for swing loans to certain of the Borrowers,
with an option, subject to certain conditions and limitations, to
increase the aggregate amount of the revolving credit commitments
to $2.75 billion (the “Revolving
Credit Facility”).
The Revolving Credit Facility is a senior unsecured obligation that
ranks equally with the Company’s other senior unsecured
obligations. The issuance of letters of credit and the proceeds of
revolving credit loans made pursuant to the Revolving Credit
Facility are available and will be used for general corporate
purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries.
Amounts under the Revolving Credit Facility may be borrowed, repaid
and re-borrowed from time to time until the current termination
date of the Revolving Credit Facility on June 17, 2027, which is
the date five years after the Revolving Credit Facility’s effective
date of June 17, 2022. The Company also has the option, subject to
certain conditions and prior to each of the first and second
anniversaries of such effective date, to extend the termination
date of the Revolving Credit Facility to the date that is one year
after the current termination date. Voluntary prepayments and
commitment reductions under the Revolving Credit Facility are
permitted at any time without payment of any prepayment fee upon
proper notice and subject to minimum dollar amounts.
Revolving loans under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at a
floating rate, which will be (i) a base rate, (ii) Adjusted Term
SOFR (defined as the forward-looking SOFR term rate published by
CME Group Benchmark Administration Limited plus 0.10% per annum
subject to a floor of zero) or (iii) EURIBOR, plus, in each case,
an applicable margin, as determined in accordance with the
provisions of the Credit Agreement. The base rate will be the
highest of: (i) the rate of interest announced publicly by
Citibank, N.A. in New York, New York from time to time as its “base
rate”; (ii) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1.00%; or
(iii) Adjusted Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.00%. The
Company is required to pay a facility fee on the average daily
amount (whether used or unused) of each Lender’s revolving credit
commitment from the effective date for such Lender until the
termination date of such Lender at a rate per annum equal to an
applicable percentage in effect from time to time for the facility
fee, as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Credit
Agreement. The initial facility fee is 0.125% per annum. The
applicable margin and the facility fee are subject to adjustment as
provided in the Credit Agreement.
The Revolving Credit Facility is unsecured, except that the Company
has provided the Lenders a guaranty with respect to payment of the
loans made to the Euro Borrowers and the swing loan borrowers under
the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains financial and
other covenants, including a maximum leverage ratio and minimum
interest coverage ratio, and includes limitations on, among other
things, liens, fundamental changes, changes in the nature of the
Company’s business and compliance with certain anti-corruption
laws, anti-money laundering laws and regulations or executive
orders administered by the United States Department of the
Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control or other similar
economic sanctions administered or enforced by the European Union,
Her Majesty’s Treasury of the United Kingdom or the United Nations
Security Council. The Credit Agreement also contains certain
representations, warranties and events of default, in each case as
set forth in the Credit Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport
to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the
Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current
Report on Form 8-K.
Some of the Lenders and their affiliates have various relationships
with the Company involving the provision of financial services,
including cash management, investment banking and trust and leasing
services. In addition, the Company has entered into interest rate,
foreign exchange and energy derivative arrangements with some of
the Lenders and their affiliates.
