Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Three Year Revolving Credit Facility
On April 30, 2009, Ryder System, Inc. (the "Company") and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a three-year, $875 million syndicated global revolving credit facility agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with the financial institutions and other lenders named therein, including Bank of America, N.A. as administrative agent, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc, as syndication agent, and Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., Mizuho Corporate Bank, Ltd. and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as co-lead arrangers. The facility can also be used to issue up to $75 million in letters of credit.
The Credit Agreement replaces the Company's existing $870 million global revolving credit facility dated May 11, 2004, as amended. The existing Credit Agreement was scheduled to expire on May 11, 2010 but was terminated concurrent with the closing of the new facility. The Company did not incur any early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the existing facility.
Amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement are unsecured and repayable at maturity on April 30, 2012. The maximum amount of outstanding borrowings and letters of credit permitted at any one time under the Credit Agreement is $875,000,000. The proceeds of the Credit Agreement are to be used for working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Company and its subsidiaries, including commercial paper support.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest at LIBOR for specified interest periods, a floating rate based upon the Bank of America prime rate or the Federal Funds rate, plus, in each case, a margin determined with reference to the Company's credit ratings. Based on the Company's current credit ratings, the applicable margin for LIBOR-based loans would be 2.125% and for loans based on the Bank of America prime rate or the Federal Funds rate would be 1.125%. In addition, the Company is required to pay the lenders a facility fee on the facility amount (whether or not used) at a rate per annum which is based on the Company's credit ratings. Based on the Company's current credit ratings, the annual facility fee will be equal to .375%.
The Company has guaranteed the obligations of all subsidiary borrowers under the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including covenants applicable to the Company and its subsidiaries limiting the amount of secured indebtedness, liens, substantial asset sales and mergers. Most of these restrictions are subject to certain minimum thresholds and exceptions. The Credit Agreement also contains the following financial covenant:
The Company is required to maintain a ratio of (a) consolidated debt to
(b) consolidated tangible net worth, which is not greater than 3.0 to 1.0, based on terms defined in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement contains no provisions restricting its availability in the event of a material adverse change to the Company's business operations. The Credit Agreement does include customary events of default which could result in an acceleration or increase in amounts due, including (subject to certain materiality thresholds and grace periods) payment default, failure to comply with covenants, material inaccuracy of representation or warranty, bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, change of control, ERISA matters and cross-default to other debt agreements. The lenders and agents (and their respective affiliates) may have provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, cash management, underwriting, lending, commercial banking, leasing, foreign

exchange, trust or other advisory services to the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates. These parties may have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation for these services.
