Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On January 22, 2024, TIF Funding LLC (the "Borrower"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Triton International Limited ("Triton"), Wells Fargo Bank, National Association ("Wells Fargo"), as Administrative Agent, certain lenders party thereto (the "Lenders") and Wilmington Trust, National Association ("Wilmington Trust"), as Collateral Agent and Securities Intermediary, entered into Amendment Number 5 to Loan and Security Agreement (the "Amendment") that, among other things, amended the Loan and Security Agreement (the "Loan Agreement") relating to the Borrower’s $1.125 billion asset-backed warehouse facility (the "Facility"), which was initially entered into on December 13, 2018. As of the date of the Amendment, there was $240 million outstanding under the Facility.
Pursuant to the Amendment, the interest rate benchmark for the Facility was amended from term SOFR to daily compounded SOFR (“Compounded SOFR”). Additionally, the revolving period of the Facility was extended until January 22, 2027, during which period borrowings under the Facility will bear interest at Compounded SOFR plus 1.60%, after which any borrowings will convert to term notes with a maturity date of January 22, 2031, paying interest at Compounded SOFR plus 2.60%. The Amendment also provides for, among other things, the addition of new Lenders, the modification of certain existing Lenders’ commitments and amends certain definitions in the Loan Agreement.
During the revolving period, the borrowing capacity under the Facility is determined by applying an advance rate against the net book value of designated eligible equipment. The Facility is secured primarily by a pool of intermodal containers and related assets. The Facility contains affirmative and negative covenants and representations and warranties customary for financings of this type. These covenants are subject to a number of important conditions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations.
Wilmington Trust serves or has served as the trustee with respect to certain other asset-backed securitization transactions involving Triton's subsidiaries. In addition, from time to time, the Lenders that provide funding to the Borrower pursuant to the Facility or their affiliates have performed, and may in the future perform, various commercial banking, investment banking, hedging, trustee and financial advisory services for Triton and its subsidiaries for which they have or will receive customary compensation.
The above description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Loan and Security Agreement as amended by the Amendment, a copy of which is expected to be filed as an exhibit to Triton’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The information set forth under Item 1.01 above is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.
