Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement
On July 28, 2021, Heritage Insurance Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiary guarantors (together, the “Company”) amended that certain Credit Agreement dated as of December 14, 2018 (as amended to date, the “Credit Agreement”) by entering into the Fifth Amendment to the Credit Agreement (the “Fifth Amendment”) with the lenders from time to time party to the Credit Agreement, and Regions Bank, as administrative agent and collateral agent.
The Fifth Amendment amended the Credit Agreement to, among other things, (i) increase the revolving credit facility from $50 million to $75 million and make related changes to the Credit Agreement, (ii) provide for a $13.75 million advance under the existing $75 million term loan facility resulting in an aggregate of $70 million principal amount outstanding as of the date of the Fifth Amendment, extend the maturity of the term loan facility from December 2023 to July 2026 and reduce the amortization of the term loan facility, (iii) reduce the applicable margin for loans under the Credit Agreement to 2.5% to 3.0% per annum for LIBOR loans (reduced from the prior range of 3.25% to 3.75%) and 1.5% to 2.0% per annum for base rate loans (reduced from the prior range of 2.25% to 2.75%), in each case based on a consolidated leverage ratio ranging from less than or equal to 1.25-to-1 to greater than 2.25-to-1 (previously less than or equal to 2.0-to-1 to greater than 3.0-to-1), (iv) revise certain negative covenants to provide the Company with more flexibility and (v) provide mechanics relating to a transition away from LIBOR as a benchmark interest rate and replace LIBOR with an alternative benchmark rate. All other material terms of the Credit Agreement remain unchanged.
The net proceeds from the advance were used to repay approximately $10 million in principal amount outstanding under the revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes.
