Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
Summary
On November 5, 2019, Trex Company, Inc. (Company) entered into a Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (Original Credit Agreement). On May 26, 2020, the Company entered into a First Amendment to the Original Credit Agreement (the First Amendment) to provide for an additional $100 million line of credit. The purpose of the additional $100 million line of credit is primarily to reduce risk associated with the COVID-19 Pandemic should the Company need to secure additional capital to continue its strategy of accelerating the conversion of wood decking to Trex composite decking and expanding its addressable market. As a matter of convenience, the parties incorporated the amendments to the Original Credit Agreement made by the First Amendment into a new Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (New Credit Agreement). In the New Credit Agreement, the revolving commitments under the Original Credit Agreement are referred to as Revolving A Commitments and the new $100 million line of credit is referred to as Revolving B Commitments. In the New Credit Agreement, all of the material terms and conditions related to the original line of credit (Revolving A Commitments) remain unchanged from the Original Credit Agreement.
First Amendment to the New Credit Agreement
The Company entered into the First Amendment, as borrower; Trex Commercial Products, Inc. (TCP), as guarantor; Bank of America, N.A. (BOA), as a Lender, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer; and certain other lenders including Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (Wells Fargo), who is also Syndication Agent; Truist Bank (Truist); and Regions Bank (Regions) (each, a Lender and collectively, the Lenders), arranged by BofA Securities, Inc. as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Bookrunner.
The First Amendment provides for the establishment of an additional Revolving Line of Credit for Aggregate Revolving B Commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $100 million. Each Revolving B Lender severally agreed to make Revolving B Loans to the Borrower as set forth in, and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in, the New Credit Agreement.
The First Amendment further provides that the New Credit Agreement is amended and restated by changing Schedule 2.01 to add applicable lender percentages related to the Revolving B Commitment for BOA of 47.5%, Well Fargo of 28.0% and Regions of 24.5%.
Table of Contents
The First Amendment also provides that Exhibits 2.02 and 2.05 to the Original Credit Agreement are amended in their entireties to include forms related to the Revolving B Commitments. The First Amendment states that all schedules and exhibits to the Original Credit Agreement remain in full force and effect in the New Credit Agreement and are not otherwise altered or amended.
The New Credit Agreement
Under the New Credit Agreement, the terms of the Revolving A Commitment remain unchanged from the Original Credit Agreement: BOA, Wells Fargo and Truist (the Revolving A Lenders) agreed to provide the Company with one or more Revolving Loans for Revolving A Commitments in a collective maximum principal amount of $250,000,000 from January 1 through June 30 of each year and a maximum principal amount of $200,000,000 from July 1 through December 31 of each year (the Revolving A Loan Limit) throughout the term, which ends November 5, 2024 (the Revolving A Term).
The New Credit Agreement, via the First Amendment, adds a Revolving B Commitment. BOA, Wells Fargo and Regions (the Revolving B Lenders) agreed to provide the Company with one or more Revolving Loans for Revolving B Commitments in a collective principal amount of $100,000,000 (the Revolving B Loan Limit) through May 26, 2022 (the Revolving B Term).
The Notes and Interest Rates
The Notes and interest rates for the Revolving A Commitments remained unchanged and are the same as previously disclosed. The Notes for Revolving A Commitments and Revolving B Commitments provide the Company, in the aggregate, the ability to borrow an amount up to the respective Revolving A Loan Limit and Revolving B Loan Limit during the respective Revolving A Term and Revolving B Term. The Company is not obligated to borrow any amount under either the Revolving A Loan or the Revolving B Loan. Within either the Revolving A Loan or the Revolving B Loan, the Company may borrow, repay and reborrow at any time or from time to time while the respective Revolving A Loan or Revolving B Loan remains in effect.
Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement) under the Revolving Loans and the Swing Line Loans accrue interest at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement) and Eurodollar Rate Loans for the Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans accrue interest at the Adjusted London InterBank Offered Rate plus the Applicable Rate (as defined in the Fourth Amended Credit Agreement).
The Base Rate for any day is a fluctuating rate per annum equal to the highest of (a) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (b) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by BOA as its prime rate, and (c) the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0%.
The Applicable Rate for Revolving B Commitments means the following percentages per annum, based upon the Consolidated Debt to Consolidated EBITDA Ratio as set forth in the most recent Compliance Certificate received by BOA as the Administrative Agent and as set forth in the New Credit Agreement:
Pricing Tier | Consolidated Debt to | Eurodollar Rate Loans / LIBOR Index Rate | Base Rate Loans | Revolving B Commitment Fee | ||||
1 | > 2.50:1.00 | 2.75% | 1.75% | 0.60% | ||||
2 | < 2.50:1.00 but > 2.00:1.00 | 2.50% | 1.50% | 0.55% | ||||
3 | < 2.00:1.00 but > 1.50:1.00 | 2.25% | 1.25% | 0.50% | ||||
4 | < 1.50:1.0 | 1.80% | 0.80% | 0.45% |
