Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
International Lease Finance Corporation (the Company) entered into Amendment No. 2, effective as
of December 22, 2010 (the Amendment), between the Company and each of the lenders on the
signature pages thereto, which amended that Companys $2.5 billion Five-Year Revolving Credit
Agreement, dated as of October 13, 2006 (the Credit Agreement).
As disclosed in the Companys Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2010, the Company was
in compliance in all material respects with the covenants in its debt agreements, but as of
September 30, 2010, the Company was close to the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.10
required under the Credit Agreement. The fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined within the Credit
Agreement, means the ratio of earnings for the period of four fiscal quarters ending on the last
day of the reporting period to combined fixed charges and preferred stock dividends referred to in
paragraph (d)(1) of Item 503 of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, and determined
pursuant to the Instructions to such Item 503(d). The Companys net loss for the nine months ended
September 30, 2010 was primarily due to impairment and lease related charges.
The Amendment revises the definition of fixed charge coverage ratio so that, in connection with the
computation of earnings, any impairment charges incurred during any measurement period in
connection with write-downs to their fair value of aircraft owned at any time during such period
shall be added to the calculation of earnings to the extent such impairment charges were deducted
in computing earnings for such period. As a result, such impairment charges will not affect
compliance with the fixed charge coverage ratio.
As a condition to the effectiveness of the Amendment, the Company repaid $800 million of aggregate
principal amount of loans outstanding under the Credit Agreement plus accrued interest thereon.
The foregoing summary of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment
attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
