Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Termination of a Material Definitive Agree
On November 9, 2012, Fluor Corporation (the "Company") entered into a $1,800,000,000 Revolving Loan and Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated as of November 9, 2012 among the Company, the lenders party thereto from time to time, BNP Paribas, as Administrative Agent and an Issuing Lender, Bank of America, N.A., as Syndication Agent and Citibank, N.A. and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as Co-Documentation Agents (the "Credit Facility").
On that same day, the existing (i) $500,000,000 Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated as of September 16, 2009 and (ii) $800,000,000 Revolving Loan and Financial Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated as of December 14, 2010 were terminated and all outstanding letters of credit thereunder were assigned or otherwise transferred to the Credit Facility.
The Credit Facility: (i) provides support for the issuance of up to $1,800,000,000 of performance standby letters of credit, (ii) has a sub-limit of $1,000,000,000 for cash drawings and the issuance of financial letters of credit, (iii) has a maturity date of November 8, 2017, and (iv) has an accordion feature whereby the Credit Facility may be increased in increments of at least $25,000,000 or any whole multiple of $10,000,000 in excess thereof up to an additional $500,000,000 (not to exceed a maximum of $2,300,000,000) subject to certain conditions. Interest on borrowings under the Credit Facility would be charged at the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) or an alternate Base Rate, in each case plus applicable margins that fluctuate based upon the applicable ratings of the Company's non-credit-enhanced senior unsecured long-term debt.
In addition, the Credit Facility:
† provides for a letter of credit fee (when letters of credit are issued) and a commitment fee for the unused amounts under the Credit Facility, which will fluctuate based on the Company's applicable ratings;
† requires that the Company maintain a maximum ratio of consolidated debt to consolidated tangible net worth of 1:00 to 1:00;
† contains restrictive covenants (subject, in each case, to certain
customary exceptions and amounts) which among other things: (x) cap at
$600,000,000 the aggregate amount of debt for the Company's subsidiaries,
(y) limit the Company's ability to create liens securing other debt, and
(z) place certain limitations on the Company's ability to engage in
acquisitions, mergers and dispositions;
† contains customary events of default, upon the occurrence of which and after any applicable grace period, the lenders will have the ability to accelerate all outstanding loans thereunder, require cash collateralization of all outstanding letters of credit and terminate all commitments;
† provides that the Company may terminate or reduce the Credit Facility at any time; and
† contains customary representations and warranties.
In conjunction with the Credit Facility, the Company also amended its existing
$1,200,000,000 Revolving Performance Letter of Credit Facility Agreement dated
as of December 14, 2010 maturing December 13, 2015 (the "PLOC Facility") to
(i) increase the cap on the aggregate amount of debt for Company subsidiaries
from $500,000,000 to $600,000,000 and (ii) update the defaulting lender
provisions to match the terms of the Credit Facility.
The foregoing summary of some of the terms of the Credit Facility and the PLOC Facility is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of each such facility, copies of which have been filed or will be provided in a future filing.
