Form 8-K for FLOWSERVE CORP

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement


Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 30, 2009, Flowserve Corporation, a New York corporation (the "Company"), Flowserve B.V. and certain other foreign subsidiaries of the Company entered into a Letter of Credit Agreement with Calyon, as an issuing bank, mandated lead arranger and administrative agent, and the other financial institutions named therein (the "Agreement"). Pursuant to the Agreement, the lenders commit for a 364-day period to issue letters of credit to the Company and its subsidiaries in an aggregate face amount not to exceed €125,000,000 at any time, with an initial commitment of €125,000,000. The Agreement replaces the Company's existing Letter of Credit Agreement (the "Existing LOC"), under which Calyon is an issuing bank, that was originally entered into in September 2007 and is expiring on November 9, 2009.
The initial commitment includes commitments of Calyon and other issuing banks currently existing under the Existing LOC, and these commitments will remain outstanding under the terms of the Agreement and will be permitted to expire pursuant to their terms. New commitments from Calyon and other banks will be made under the Agreement to replace the Existing LOC commitments as they expire. Under the Agreement, the Company will pay an annual commitment fee of 40 basis points on the aggregate unutilized commitments of the issuing banks, and the Company will pay a letter of credit utilization fee at a rate of 135 basis points per annum. As of October 30, 2009, the Company's annual fees equaled 1.35%.
The aggregate commitment of the facility may be decreased by the Company so long as it equals or exceeds the aggregate face amount of all letters of credit and any disbursements outstanding at the time. The Company will guarantee any and all obligations and liabilities of its subsidiaries and itself under the Agreement for any issued letter of credit or related disbursement by a lender. The Company may request extensions of the availability period of the Agreement for additional 364-day periods upon 45 days notice to Calyon.
The above discussion of the Agreement is a summary description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
