Item 2.03Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
As previously disclosed, Altra Industrial Motion Corporation (the “Company”) is party to a credit agreement (the “Altra Credit Agreement”) dated October 1, 2018. The Altra Credit Agreement provides for a seven-year senior secured term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $1,340.0 million (the “Altra Term Loan Facility”) and a five-year senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate committed principal amount of $300.0 million (the “Altra Revolving Credit Facility”). A copy of the Altra Credit Agreement was filed as an exhibit to the Company’s 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on October 1, 2019.
The Company provided notice to the administrative agent of the Altra Credit Agreement on March 9, 2020 and March 16, 2020 to draw down $50 million and $50 million, respectively, under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility. As of March 17, 2020 a total of $100 million was outstanding under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility. Borrowings under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility are scheduled to mature on September 30, 2023, and the Company may repay amounts borrowed any time without penalty.
Borrowings under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility will initially bear interest at a per annum rate equal to a Eurocurrency Rate plus 2.00% and thereafter will bear interest at a per annum rate equal to a Eurocurrency Rate plus an interest rate spread determined by reference to a pricing grid based on the Company’s senior secured net leverage ratio. Based on the Company’s current senior secured net leverage ratio the interest rate spread would be 2.00%.
The Company increased its borrowings under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility as a precautionary action in order to increase its cash position and enhance its financial flexibility during this period of uncertainty in the global markets resulting from COVID-19. The draw-down proceeds from the Altra Revolving Credit Facility are currently being held on the Company’s balance sheet and may be used for general corporate purposes. The Company could make further borrowings and had $195.6 million available to borrow under the Altra Revolving Credit Facility as of March 17, 2020
