Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On July 31, 2017, Pinnacle West Capital Corporation (“Pinnacle West”), The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as Agent (the "Agent"), as an Issuing Bank and as a Lender, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as a Lender ("JPMorgan") entered into an amendment to the 364-day credit agreement, dated as of August 31, 2016, with the Agent and JPMorgan, allowing Pinnacle West to borrow, repay and reborrow, from time to time, up to $125 million through July 30, 2018. Pinnacle West will use the amended facility to directly or indirectly fund or otherwise support obligations related to 4C Acquisition, LLC, a subsidiary of Pinnacle West. The amended facility can also be used for letters of credit. Borrowings under the amended facility will bear interest at LIBOR plus 0.80% per annum.

Borrowings under the amended facility are conditioned on Pinnacle West’s ability to make certain representations at the time each borrowing is made, except for representations concerning no material adverse effect and certain litigation matters, which were made only at the time the amended facility was entered into. The amended facility includes customary covenants, including requirements that Pinnacle West maintain ownership of a specified percentage of the outstanding capital stock of Arizona Public Service Company, maintain a consolidated debt-to-capitalization ratio no greater than a prescribed level and comply with certain lien restrictions. The amended facility also includes customary events of default, including a cross default provision and a change of control provision. If an event of default occurs, lenders holding a specified percentage of the commitments, or the agent with such lenders’ consent, may terminate the obligations of the lenders to make loans under the amended facility and the obligations of the issuing banks to issue letters of credit and may declare the obligations outstanding under the amended facility to be due and payable.
