Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 10, 2010, EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG) entered into an unsecured Revolving Credit
Agreement (New Facility) among EOG, Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (Administrative
Agent), the financial institutions as bank parties thereto (Banks) and the other parties thereto.
The New Facility is in addition to EOGs existing unsecured
Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of June
28, 2005 (as amended), among EOG, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent thereunder,
the financial institutions as bank parties thereto and the other parties thereto, which has a
scheduled maturity date of June 28, 2012 and which is referenced under Item 9.01 below and on the
exhibit index hereto.
The New Facility has a scheduled maturity date of September 10, 2013 and includes an option
for EOG to extend, on up to two occasions, the term for successive one-year periods, subject to,
among certain other terms and conditions, the consent of the Banks holding greater than 50% of the
commitments then outstanding under the New Facility. The New Facility commits the Banks to provide
advances and letters of credit up to an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion at any one time
outstanding, with an option for EOG to request increases in the aggregate commitments to an amount
not to exceed $1.5 billion, subject to certain terms and conditions. Advances under the New
Facility accrue interest based, at EOGs option, on either the London InterBank Offering rate
(LIBOR) plus an applicable margin or the base rate (as defined in the New Facility) plus an
applicable margin. The applicable margin used in connection with interest rates and fees will be
based on EOGs credit rating at the applicable time.
The New Facility also provides for a Canadian sub-facility and a United Kingdom (UK)
sub-facility, pursuant to which a Canadian subsidiary of EOG and a UK subsidiary of EOG,
respectively, each can obtain advances and letters of credit up to an aggregate principal amount of
$75.0 million (which amount is included in, and is not in addition to, the $1.0 billion aggregate
commitments).
The New Facility contains representations, warranties, covenants and events of default that
are customary for investment grade, senior unsecured commercial bank credit agreements, including a
financial covenant for the maintenance of a total debt-to-total capitalization ratio of no greater
than 65%.
The foregoing description of the New Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the New Facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is
incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangement of a Registrant.
(a) The information set forth above under Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference. As of
the date hereof, no borrowings have been made under the New Facility by EOG, its Canadian
subsidiary party thereto or its UK subsidiary party thereto.
