Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 1, 2016, FLIR Systems, Inc. (“FLIR”) entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein, pursuant to which FLIR agreed to issue and sell to the Underwriters $425 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.125% notes due 2021 (the “Notes”). The public offering price of the Notes was 99.931% of the principal amount. FLIR expects that the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be approximately $421 million after deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses. FLIR intends to use the net proceeds to repay $250 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.75% senior unsecured notes due September 1, 2016 and for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, investments in or extensions of credit to our subsidiaries, capital expenditures, acquisitions and stock repurchases.

The Notes will be issued and sold in a public offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-211275) and a related prospectus and prospectus supplement, each filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by FLIR, and customary closing conditions, indemnification rights and termination provisions. The above description of the Underwriting Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

Certain of the Underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in and may in the future engage in investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with FLIR and its affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
