Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On December 14, 2016, Innospec Inc. (the Company) and certain subsidiaries of the Company entered into a Third Amendment and Restatement Agreement with various lenders which amends and restates the Companys credit facility agreement dated December 14, 2011,as amended and restated on August 28, 2013 and November 6, 2015 (the Pre-Existing Credit Agreement; the Pre-Existing Credit Agreement, as amended and restated pursuant to the Third Amendment and Restatement Agreement, being the Amended Credit Agreement.)
The Amended Credit Agreement retains the $200,000,000 revolving credit facility available to the Company and adds a term loan facility of $110,000,000. The termination date of the revolving facility remains November 6, 2020. The term loan has an $11,000,000 repayment installment due December 28, 2017, a $16,500,000 installment due December 28, 2018 and a $22,000,000 installment due December 28, 2019, with the outstanding balance due on November 6, 2020.
The proceeds of the term loan are to be used in connection with Companys obligations under the Share and Asset Purchase Agreement (the SAPA), dated as of October 25, 2016 by and between Huntsman Investments (Netherlands) B.V. and Innospec International LTD, as amended. The SAPA was previously disclosed in the Companys Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 27, 2016 and a copy of the SAPA was filed as an exhibit to that Current Report on Form 8-K.
The obligations of the Company under the Amended Credit Agreement are secured obligations and guaranteed by certain subsidiaries of the Company. Amounts available under the revolving facility may be borrowed in U.S. dollars, Euros, British pounds and other freely convertible currencies. The term loan has a base currency of U.S. dollars.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains customary representations, covenants and events of default, which are broadly consistent with those in the Pre-Existing Credit Agreement, although the initial margin (to which LIBOR or EURIBOR, as applicable, is added to calculate the interest rate for loans under the Amended Credit Agreement) has increased to 1.70% and the amount of permitted indebtedness has increased.
Under the Amended Credit Agreement, the Company pays a customary upfront arrangement fee to its lenders, as well as a fee to the coordinating bank and reimbursement of certain expenses.
This description of the Third Amendment and Restatement Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Third Amendment and Restatement Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
