Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

On May 22, 2015, GPT Property Trust LP (the “Operating Partnership”), the operating subsidiary of Gramercy Property Trust Inc. (the “Company”), entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”), among the Operating Partnership, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries as guarantors, the lenders referred to therein (the “Lenders”), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent for the Lenders (the “Administrative Agent”). The Amendment modifies that certain Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement, dated as of June 9, 2014, by and among the Operating Partnership, the lenders referred to therein, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as joint bookrunners and joint arrangers, the Administrative Agent, and Bank of America, N.A. as syndication agent (as modified by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement dated January 22, 2015, the “Credit Agreement”).  

 

As previously disclosed, the Credit Agreement provides for a $600.0 million senior unsecured credit facility, consisting of a $400.0 million senior revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) and a $200.0 million senior term loan facility (the “Term Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facilities”).  The Amendment bifurcates the borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility into (i) a $350.0 million “U.S. Revolving Loan” tranche (from which revolving loans are made in U.S. dollars) and (ii) a $50.0 million “Multi Currency Loan” tranche (from which revolving loans are made in euros, Pounds Sterling or other currencies agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders).  The Amendment also made other administrative modifications to the Credit Agreement, but left the current aggregate borrowing capacity under the Credit Facilities unchanged at $600.0 million and, subject to the Company’s exercise of its remaining accordion expansion rights and approval of the lenders providing such incremental financing and satisfaction of certain customary conditions, the maximum borrowing capacity under the Credit Facility unchanged at $1.0 billion.

 

The foregoing does not constitute a complete summary of the terms of the Amendment and reference is made to the complete text of the governing document, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated by referenced herein.
