Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 20, 2019, Novelis Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an amendment (the “ABL Amendment”) to our Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of October 6, 2014 (as previously amended, the “ABL Facility”), among the Company and its subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the guarantors party thereto, Wells Fargo as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto.
The ABL Amendment modifies the ABL Facility by adding contractual terms required, under the United States regulations commonly known as “QFC Stay Rules,” to be included in certain contracts entered into by systemically important banking organizations. These amendments were requested by our lenders under the ABL Facility to facilitate compliance with the QFC Stay Rules.
The foregoing description of the amendment is a general description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1.
Item 9.01. Financial Statements and Exhibits.
