Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 4, 2011, Motorola, Inc. (renamed Motorola Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”)) entered into a new $1.5 billion revolving credit agreement (the “Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the “Agent”), and the several lenders and agents party thereto.  The Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement permits the Company to borrow syndicated loans (the “Syndicated Loans”) and money market loans (the “Money Market Loans”) from time to time for general corporate purposes, including commercial paper backup.  The Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement matures on June 30, 2014.

 

Syndicated Loans under the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the Base Rate as in effect from time to time or (ii) the Eurodollar Rate for the Interest Period, plus, in each case, the Applicable Margin based on the Company’s corporate credit rating (each as defined in the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement). Money Market Loans under the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (i) the LIBO Rate for the Interest Period therefore plus or minus the LIBO Margin quoted by the bank making such loan or (ii) the Set Rate for the Interest Period therefore quoted by the bank making such loan (each as defined in the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement).

 

Certain other material terms of the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement include (i) financial covenants relating to maximum leverage and minimum interest coverage ratios; (ii) customary restrictive covenants (subject, in each case, to certain exceptions and amounts) that limit the Company’s ability to, among other things, create liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions; (iii) customary events of default, upon the occurrence of which, after any applicable grace period, the lenders will have the ability to accelerate all outstanding loans thereunder and terminate the commitments; and (iv) customary representations and warranties.  In addition, the Company has the ability, at any time, to increase the aggregate commitments under the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement from $1.5 billion to $2.0 billion, subject to the approval of the Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld), the condition that no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing, and other terms and conditions set forth in the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement.

 

The Agent and the other agents and lenders party to the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement, as well as certain of their respective affiliates, have performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial banking, investment banking, underwriting and other financial advisory services for the Company, for which they have received and may in the future receive customary fees and expenses.  The Agent was an administrative agent under the Old Credit Agreement referred to in Item 1.02 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The foregoing description of the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.

 

Item 1.02.  Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

In connection with entering into the Motorola Solutions Credit Agreement described in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, the Company terminated its existing Five-Year Credit Agreement, dated as of December 14, 2006, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agents, and the other financial institutions party thereto, as amended on March 28, 2008 and June 5, 2009 (the “Motorola, Inc. Credit Agreement”).  There were no outstanding loan borrowings under the Motorola, Inc. Credit Agreement at the time of termination and no early termination penalties were incurred by the Company.
