Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 5, 2021, The Chemours Company AR, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Chemours AR”), and The Chemours Company FC, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Chemours FC”), entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement, dated as of March 9, 2020. Chemours AR and Chemours FC entered into the First Amendment with The Toronto-Dominion Bank, as Administrative Agent, as LC Bank, as a Group Agent, and as a Related Committed Purchaser, and Reliant Trust, as a Conduit Purchaser. Chemours FC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Chemours Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Chemours AR is a wholly-owned, bankruptcy-remote special purpose subsidiary of Chemours FC.
The First Amendment, among other things, extends the term of the Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (as amended by the First Amendment), such that Chemours AR may sell certain receivables and request investments and letters of credit until the earlier of March 6, 2023 or another event that constitutes a “Termination Date” under the Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (as amended by the First Amendment). Prior to giving effect to the First Amendment, the Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement was scheduled to expire on March 5, 2021. The First Amendment also increases the Facility Limit under the arrangement from $125 million to $150 million.
The foregoing description is only a summary of the First Amendment, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto, respectively, and which is incorporated by reference herein.
