Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
As previously disclosed, on December 15, 2017, Hanesbrands Inc. (the “Company”), along with each of MFB International Holdings S.à r.l. and HBI Australia Acquisition Co. Pty Ltd, wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company (the “Loan Parties”), entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 15, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”), with the various financial institutions and other persons from time to time party to the Credit Agreement as lenders, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent and the collateral agent.
On April 27, 2020, the Company, along with the Loan Parties, entered into a First Amendment and Waiver (the “First Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. The First Amendment effects changes to certain provisions and covenants under the Credit Agreement during the period beginning with the fiscal quarter ending June 27, 2020 and continuing through the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021 (such period of time, the “Covenant Relief Period”), including: (a) suspension of compliance with the maximum leverage ratio; (b) reduction of the minimum interest coverage ratio from 3.00 to 1.00 to (i) 2.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarters ending June 27, 2020 through April 3, 2021 and (ii) 2.25 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter ending July 3, 2021; (c) a minimum EBITDA covenant of $625 million as of June 27, 2020, $505 million as of September 26, 2020, $445 million as of January 2, 2021, $435 million as of April 3, 2021 and $505 million as of July 3, 2021; (d) a minimum liquidity covenant of $300 million, increasing to $400 million upon certain conditions; (e) increased limitations on investments, acquisitions, restricted payments and the incurrence of indebtedness; and (f) anti-cash hoarding provisions. During the Covenant Relief Period, the applicable margin and applicable commitment fee margin will be calculated assuming the leverage ratio is greater than or equal to 4.50 to 1.00. The First Amendment also permanently amends the definition of “leverage ratio” for purposes of the financial covenant calculation to remove the maximum amount of cash allowed to be netted from the definition of “indebtedness” and to allow for the netting of cash from certain foreign subsidiaries.
The foregoing description of the First Amendment is only a summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto, and is incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized terms used herein but not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the First Amendment or the Credit Agreement, as applicable.
From time to time, the financial institutions party to the Credit Agreement or their affiliates have performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial banking, investment banking and other financial advisory services for the Company and its affiliates for which they have received, and will receive, customary fees and expenses. For example, certain lenders under the Credit Agreement and/or their affiliates are parties to the Company’s accounts receivable securitization facility.
