Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On February 18, 2014, Regency GP LLC, as the general partner of Regency GP LP, the general partner of Regency Energy Partners LP (the “Partnership”), entered into the First Amendment to Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, effective as of February 18, 2014, among Regency Gas Services LP, as borrower (the “Borrower”), the Partnership and other guarantors named therein, the administrative agent, the collateral agent, and the lenders (all as named therein) (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”). The material differences between the Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated May 21, 2013 (the “previous credit agreement”) and such previous credit agreement as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendment (the “New Credit Agreement”) include:

 

  An increase in the revolving commitments from $1.2 billion to $1.5 billion with a $200 million increase in the uncommitted incremental facility, increasing such facility from $300 million to $500 million.

 

  An increase in the swingline commitments from $25 million to $50 million.

 

  The addition of provisions permitting certain indebtedness to be incurred pursuant to the merger of PVR Partners, L.P. with and into the Partnership.

 

  An increase in the thresholds of certain events of default regarding judgments and payments of other indebtedness from $10 million to $50 million.

 

  The addition of provisions clarifying that no pipeline purchased or acquired by the Borrower or any guarantor is required to be pledged to secure the obligations under the New Credit Agreement unless the purchase or construction price, as applicable, of such pipeline equals or exceeds $25 million.

The foregoing descriptions of the previous credit agreement and the Credit Agreement Amendment do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the previous credit agreement, which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K filed on May 28, 2013 and which is incorporated herein by reference, and the full text of Credit Agreement Amendment, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
