Item 1.01 | Entry Into Material Definitive Agreements. |
On July 21, 2020, Copart, Inc. (“Copart”) entered into a First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”) by and among Copart, certain subsidiaries of Copart party thereto, the lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement amends and restates certain terms of the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 3, 2014, by and among Copart, the lenders from time to time party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (as successor in interest to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association) (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of March 15, 2016 and as amended by the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of July 21, 2016, the “Existing Credit Agreement”).
The First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for, among other things, (a) an increase in the secured revolving credit commitments previously available under the Existing Credit Agreement by $200.0 million, bringing the aggregate principal amount of the revolving credit commitments under the First and Amended and Restated Credit Agreement to $1,050.0 million, (b) an extension of the termination date of the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement from July 21, 2021 to July 21, 2023 and (c) an increase in the pricing levels with respect to the revolving credit commitments as further described below.
The First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement provides for pricing levels at a range of 0.25% to 0.35% in the case of the commitment fee, 1.50% to 2.25% in the case of the applicable margin for LIBOR loans, and 0.50% to 1.25% in the case of the applicable margin for base rate loans, in each case depending on Copart’s consolidated total net leverage ratio.
The principal purpose of this financing transaction was to increase the size and availability under Copart’s Existing Credit Agreement. Copart intends to use the increased availability under the First Amended and Restated Credit Agreement for general corporate purposes, including working capital and capital expenditures as well as potential share repurchases, acquisitions, or other investments relating to Copart’s expansion strategies in domestic and international markets.
