Item 1.01  Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On April 18, 2014, GenCorp Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a subordinated delayed draw credit agreement (the “Subordinated Credit Facility”) with the lenders identified therein, and The Bank of New York Mellon, as administrative agent.
 
The Subordinated Credit Facility provides a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of up to $100.0 million.  Outstanding indebtedness under the Subordinated Credit Facility may be voluntarily prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, in general without premium or penalty.
 
GenCorp intends to use borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility for a variety of purposes which may include refinancing of existing debt, repurchasing common equity, working capital and general corporate purposes.
 
In general, borrowings under the Subordinated Credit Facility bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of (x) the greater of LIBOR and 1.00% per annum plus (y) 8.50%, or in the case of base rate loans, the base rate as it is defined in the credit agreement governing the Subordinated Credit Facility plus 7.50%.
 
The Company is subject to certain limitations including the ability to incur additional debt, make certain investments and acquisitions, and make certain restricted payments, including stock repurchases and dividends.  The Subordinated Credit Facility includes events of default usual and customary for facilities of this nature, the occurrence of which could lead to an acceleration of the Company’s obligations thereunder.
 
The description of the Subordinated Credit Facility contained herein does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
