Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On December 18, 2013, Alexander & Baldwin, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a First Amendment to Credit Agreement ("Amendment") to its $260 million revolving credit facility ("Revolving Credit Facility") by and among Alexander & Baldwin, LLC ("A&B LLC"), Grace Pacific LLC ("Grace"), A&B II, LLC, First Hawaiian Bank, Bank of America N.A., and other lenders party thereto. Under the Amendment, the aggregate capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility is increased to $350 million, the sub-limit for swing line loans is increased from $50 million to $80 million, and the uncommitted increase option is increased to $100 million. Additionally, the Amendment adds Grace as co-borrower, adds A&B II, LLC as guarantor, and modifies certain covenants to account for the Company's acquisition of Grace. The foregoing amendments were undertaken by the Company to consolidate debt facilities, as well as increase the Company's available borrowing capacity due to the acquisition of Grace. All other terms of the Revolving Credit Facility remain substantially unchanged.
On December 18, 2013, the Company entered into an amendment ("Pru Amendment") to its $300 million Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement ("Pru Shelf") by and among A&B LLC and Prudential Investment Management, Inc. ("PIM") and certain affiliates of PIM party thereto. The Pru Amendment modifies certain covenants to account for the acquisition of Grace. All other terms of the Revolving Credit Facility remain substantially unchanged.
On December 18, 2013, the Company entered into a short-term facility ("Bridge Loan"), by and among A&B LLC, Bank of America, N.A., and other lenders party thereto, to finance a portion of the Company's $373 million purchase of commercial properties in Hawaii from Kaneohe Ranch and the Harold K.L. Castle Foundation ("Kaneohe Ranch Transaction"), as previously described in the Company's Form 8-K dated November 19, 2013. The Company borrowed $60 million under the Bridge Loan, which bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.00%. The Bridge Loan matures on June 18, 2014 and requires mandatory prepayments of principal using net proceeds primarily from the planned sale of a property scheduled to be sold under IRS Code section 1031 for the purpose of funding the Kaneohe Ranch Transaction in a reverse 1031 transaction.
The foregoing description of the terms of the Amendment, the Pru Amendment, and the Bridge Loan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, Pru Amendment, and Bridge Loan, which are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
