Items 1.01 | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On July 15, 2016 NVR, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated as Sole Lead Arranger and Sole Book Runner, and the other lenders party thereto, which provides for aggregate revolving loan commitments of $200 million (the “Facility”). Proceeds of the borrowings under the Facility will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes. The Credit Agreement termination date is July 15, 2021.
Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may request increases of up to $300 million to the Facility in the form of revolving loan commitments or term loans to the extent that new or existing lenders agree to provide additional revolving loan or term loan commitments. The Credit Agreement provides for a $100 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $25 million sublimit for a swing line commitment. As of July 18, 2016, no revolving loans were outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
Interest on each committed borrowing under the Facility is determined at the Company’s election of either LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.0% to 1.75% (depending upon the Company’s debt rating) or a base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.0% to 0.75% (depending upon the Company’s debt rating). The base rate is defined as the highest of (i) the Federal Funds Rate plus 0.50%, (ii) Bank of America’s prime rate, and (iii) the daily LIBOR for one-month plus 1.0%. The Company is required to pay an unused commitment fee assessed on unused revolving loan commitments at a rate ranging from 0.15% to 0.30%, depending on the Company’s debt rating.
The Credit Agreement contains various representations and affirmative and negative covenants that are generally customary for credit facilities of this type. Such covenants include among others, the following financial maintenance covenants: (i) minimum consolidated tangible net worth, (ii) minimum interest coverage ratio or minimum liquidity and (iii) a maximum leverage ratio. The negative covenants include among others, certain limitations on liens, investments and fundamental changes. The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default, the occurrence of which, following any applicable grace period, would permit the lenders to, among other things, declare the principal, accrued interest and other obligations of the Company under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.
The Credit Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The above referenced summary of the material terms of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to Exhibit 10.1.
Item 2.03 | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement. |
The disclosure contained in Item 1.01 is incorporated herein by reference.
