Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 11, 2020, Ulta Beauty, Inc., Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrance, Inc. and certain of their subsidiaries (collectively, the “Ulta Parties”) entered into an Amendment No. 1 to Second Amended and Restated Loan Agreement (the “Amendment”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the other lenders party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Amendment amends the existing Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement, dated as of August 23, 2017. The Amendment extends the maturity of the facility to March 11, 2025, provides maximum revolving loans equal to the lesser of $1.0 billion or a percentage of eligible owned inventory and eligible owned receivables (which borrowing base may, at the election of the Ulta Parties and satisfaction of certain condition, include a percentage of qualified cash), contains a $50 million subfacility for letters of credit and allows the Ulta Parties to increase the revolving facility by an additional $100 million, subject to the consent by each lender and other conditions. The Loan Agreement contains a requirement to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.0 to 1.0 during such periods when availability under the Loan Agreement falls below a specified threshold. Substantially all of the Ulta Parties’ assets are pledged as collateral for outstanding borrowings under the Loan Agreement. Outstanding borrowings will bear interest, at the Ulta Parties election, at either a base rate plus a margin of 0%-0.125% or the London Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin of 1.125%-1.25%, with such margins based on average daily excess borrowing availability in each fiscal quarter, and the unused line fee is 0.20% per annum.
Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On March 11, 2020, the Ulta Parties entered into the Amendment described in Item 1.01 above, which information is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
