Item 1.02.                                        Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On February 11, 2014, SPX Corporation (the “Company”) discharged its remaining obligations under the indenture dated as of December 13, 2007 (the “Indenture”), governing the Company’s 7 5/8% Notes due 2014 (the “2014 Notes”) by depositing funds with U.S. Bank National Association, the paying agent under the Indenture, sufficient to pay and discharge all remaining indebtedness on the 2014 Notes, including accrued and unpaid interest, after causing to be delivered a notice of redemption to holders of the remaining outstanding 2014 Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture, as described under Item 2.04 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

Item 2.04.                                        Triggering Events That Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement.

 

On February 6, 2014, the Company notified U.S. Bank National Association, the trustee for the 2014 Notes, of its election to call for redemption on February 11, 2014 (the “Redemption Date”), all of the outstanding 2014 Notes, and instructed the trustee to provide notice of such redemption to the holders of the 2014 Notes in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. The 2014 Notes were redeemed at a redemption price of 105.898% of the principal amount thereof (or $1,058.98 per $1,000 in principal amount of the 2014 Notes) plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but not including, the Redemption Date. Following the redemption, none of the 2014 Notes remain outstanding. This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute a notice of redemption of the 2014 Notes.
