ITEM 1.01. ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT
364-Day Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility
On February 4, 2014 (the “Revolving Credit Facility Closing Date”), Toll Brothers, Inc. (the “Registrant”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, First Huntingdon Finance Corp. (the “Borrower,” and together with the Registrant, the “Company”), closed on the previously announced 364-day senior unsecured revolving credit facility by entering into a credit agreement dated as of February 4, 2014 (the “Credit Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and Citibank, N.A. (“Citibank”), as administrative agent.
The Credit Agreement provides for an unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) to be made available to the Borrower, from time to time after the Revolving Credit Facility Closing Date and prior to the termination date of the Revolving Credit Facility, in the amount of $500 million (“Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment”). The Company may select interest rates for the Revolving Credit Facility equal to (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (ii) the base rate (which is defined as the greatest of (a) Citibank’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1%) plus an applicable margin or (iii) the federal funds / Euro rate (which is defined as the greater of (a) the sum of the federal funds effective rate plus an applicable margin plus 0.25% and (b) one-month LIBOR), with the applicable margin, in each case, based on the Registrant’s leverage ratio. The Company is obligated to pay an undrawn commitment fee, which is based on the average daily unused amount of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment and the Registrant’s leverage ratio. Any proceeds from borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility may be used for lawful, general business purposes.
Under the terms of the Credit Agreement, the Registrant is not permitted to allow its maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) to exceed 1.75:1.00 and is required to maintain a tangible net worth (as defined in the Credit Agreement) of no less than approximately $2.22 billion (subject to adjustments as provided in the Credit Agreement). The Revolving Credit Facility is subject to acceleration upon certain specified events of default, including failure to make timely payments, breaches of representations or covenants, failure to pay other material indebtedness, or another person or group becoming beneficial owner of 50% or more of the Registrant’s outstanding voting stock. The Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments will terminate, and amounts owing under the Revolving Credit Facility will become due and payable, on February 3, 2015.
The Registrant and substantially all of its 100% owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the Credit Agreement.
Citibank, Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, The Royal Bank of Scotland PLC, SunTrust Bank and PNC, National Association, each a participant in the Revolving Credit Facility, currently provide, and they and other participants may in the future provide, other general banking services to the Company.
A copy of the Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01. The foregoing summary of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement filed herewith.
Senior Unsecured Term Loan
On February 3, 2014, (the "Term Loan Closing Date"), the Company closed on a 5-year senior unsecured term loan facility by entering into a credit agreement dated as of February 3, 2014 (the “Term Loan Agreement”), by and among the Company, the lenders party thereto and SunTrust Bank, as administrative agent (“SunTrust”).
The Term Loan Agreement provides for a senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) in the amount of $485 million. The full amount of the Term Loan Facility will be borrowed by the Borrower on the Term Loan Closing Date. The Term Loan Facility has an additional term loan feature under which the Company may, subject to certain conditions set forth in the Term Loan Agreement, request additional term loans in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $400 million, although no lender is obligated to provide such additional term loans. The Company may select interest rates for the Term Loan Facility equal to (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin, (ii) the base rate (which is defined as the greatest of (a) SunTrust’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds effective rate plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1%) plus an applicable margin or (iii) the federal funds / Euro rate (which is defined as the greater of (a) the sum of the federal funds effective rate plus an applicable margin plus 0.25% and (b) one-month LIBOR), with the applicable margin, in each case, based on the Registrant’s leverage ratio. Any proceeds from borrowings under the Term Loan Facility may be used for lawful, general business purposes.
Under the terms of the Term Loan Agreement, the Registrant is not permitted to allow its maximum leverage ratio (as defined in the Term Loan Agreement) to exceed 1.75:1.00 and is required to maintain a tangible net worth (as defined in the
Term Loan Agreement) of no less than approximately $2.22 billion (subject to adjustments as provided in the Term Loan Agreement). The Term Loan Facility is subject to acceleration upon certain specified events of default, including failure to make timely payments, breaches of representations or covenants, failure to pay other material indebtedness, or another person or group becoming beneficial owner of 50% or more of the Registrant’s outstanding voting stock. The Term Loan Facility will mature, and amounts owing under the Term Loan Facility will become due and payable, on February 3, 2019.
The Registrant and substantially all of its 100% owned home building subsidiaries are guarantors under the Term Loan Agreement.
