Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On March 3, 2016, Service Corporation International (the “Company”) entered into a credit agreement with J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, providing for a new senior unsecured credit facility (the “new senior credit facility”), to replace its previous senior credit facility, which comprised a $600 million senior term loan facility maturing in July 2018 and a revolving credit facility providing for borrowings of up to $500 million, with commitments expiring and loans maturing in July 2018. The new senior credit facility consists of a term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount of $700 million and a revolving credit facility of up to $700 million, with commitments expiring and loans maturing in March 2021.

Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to, at SCI’s option, either (a) a LIBOR rate adjusted for certain additional costs, plus an applicable margin, or (b) a base rate, plus an applicable margin. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the Credit Agreement, SCI will pay a commitment fee in respect of the average daily unutilized Revolver and Term Loan commitments thereunder. With respect to outstanding letters of credit, SCI will pay customary fees equal to the applicable margin for LIBOR borrowings under the Revolver, plus fronting fees. The applicable margin on borrowings and the commitment fees will vary in accordance with SCI’s leverage ratio. All obligations under the Credit Agreement are unconditionally guaranteed by certain of SCI’s existing and subsequently acquired or organized domestic subsidiaries and, in certain circumstances, by other subsidiaries of SCI. The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, and SCI is subject to a maximum leverage ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio. The Credit Agreement also specifies certain customary events of default. A copy of the Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
