Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On May 23, 2013, Alon USA, LP (“Alon USA LP”), a subsidiary of Alon USA Energy, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into a Second Amended Revolving Credit Agreement (the “New Alon USA LP Credit Facility”), by and among Alon USA LP, the financial institutions from time to time a party thereto (the “Lenders”), Israel Discount Bank of New York as administrative agent, co-arranger and collateral agent, and Bank Leumi USA, as co-arranger for the Lenders. The New Alon USA LP Credit Facility amended and restated that certain Amended Revolving Credit Agreement, dated June 22, 2006 (as previously amended, the “Old Alon USA LP Credit Facility”). No material terms of the Old Alon USA LP Credit Facility were modified by the New Alon USA LP Credit Facility.
The New Alon USA LP Credit Facility has a $240.0 million capacity and will mature in March 2016. The New Alon USA LP Credit Facility can be used both for borrowings and the issuance of letters of credit subject to a limit of the lesser of the facility amount or the borrowing base amount under the facility.
Borrowings under the New Alon USA LP Credit Facility bear interest at the Eurodollar rate plus 3.50% per annum, subject to an overall minimum interest rate of 4.00%.
The New Alon USA LP Credit Facility is secured by (i) a first lien on our cash, accounts receivables, inventories and related assets and (ii) a second lien on fixed assets and other specified property, in each case, excluding those of Alon Paramount Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries other than Alon Pipeline Logistics, LLC, the subsidiaries established in conjunction with the Krotz Springs refinery acquisition, the subsidiaries established in conjunction with the Bakersfield refinery acquisition and our retail subsidiaries.
The New Alon USA LP Credit Facility contains certain restrictive covenants including maintenance financial covenants.
The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the New Alon USA LP Credit Facility, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
In May 2013 the Company's Compensation Committee approved the payment of cash bonuses under the Company's 2005 Incentive Compensation Plan based primarily on performance in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012. As a result, on May 17, 2013, the Company paid cash bonuses to the Company's 2012 named executive officers.
The amounts of these bonuses had not been determined at the time of the filing of the Company's Proxy Statement for the Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Proxy Statement”) and were therefore not included in the “Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation” column contained in the Summary Compensation Table set forth therein. The amount awarded to each of the Company's 2012 named executive officers and the amount of compensation that would have been reflected in the “Total” column of the Summary Compensation Table had the amounts of these awards been determined prior to the filing of the Proxy Statement are set forth below.
