(TMK Re) entered into the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2015 among Torchmark, TMK Re, the Lenders listed therein and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (Wells Fargo) (the First Amendment). The First Amendment amends that Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 16, 2014 among Torchmark, as the Borrower, TMK Re, as a Loan Party, Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender, L/C Issuer and L/C Administrator and the other lenders party thereto (the Restated Credit Agreement). The First Amendment provides for a rate floor of zero for LIBOR and Base Rate loans and removes the "dead hand" provision from the Change of Control definition. The foregoing description of the First Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment, which is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and which is incorporated by reference herein.
Torchmark and its subsidiaries from time to time have had, and may continue to have, various commercial, lending or other relationships with certain of the banks that are a party to the First Amendment and their affiliates.
