Item 1.01                                            Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 9, 2018, Primoris Services Corporation (“the Company”) entered into the First Amendment and Joinder to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Amendment”) with CIBC Bank USA, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), collateral agent, and joint lead arranger, Bank of the West, as joint lead arranger, Capital One, N.A., as co-syndication agent, Regions Bank, as co-syndication agent, and Branch Banking and Trust Company, IBERIABANK, Bank of America, and Simmons Bank (the “Lenders”). The Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 29, 2017, among such parties (as amended by the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”)

 

The Amendment, among other things, modifies the Credit Agreement to include a $220,000,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”), increases the accordion feature that will allow the Company to increase the Term Loan or borrowing capacity under the $200,000,000 revolving credit facility by $75,000,000, and extends the maturity date of the Credit Agreement from September 29, 2022 to July 9, 2023.

 

The Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments equal to 1.250%, or 5.000% per annum, of the original principal amount of the Term Loan for the first three years and 1.875%, or 7.500% per annum, of the original principal amount of the Term Loan for the next two years, with the balance paid on July 9, 2023. The first principal payment will be due on September 30, 2018.

 

The proceeds from the Term Loan were used to refinance and extinguish the Company’s Senior Secured Notes and Shelf Agreement with The Prudential Investment Management, Inc., and certain Prudential affiliates, to pay down a significant portion of the borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility that was used to finance the acquisition of Willbros Group, Inc., and for general corporate purposes.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amendment and the Credit Agreement, copies of which are included as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.

(iii)                                Net Cash Proceeds of Incurrence of Debt .  The Borrower shall prepay the Term Loan in an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds if, after the Closing Date, the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall issue any Debt of any Loan Party (excluding Debt permitted by Section 11.1 hereof) if a Default or Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom.  The Borrower acknowledges that its performance hereunder shall not limit the rights and remedies of the Loan Parties for any breach of Section 11.1 hereof or any other terms of the Loan Documents.

(b)                                  the Required Lenders advise Administrative Agent that for any reason in connection with any request for a LIBOR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Dollar deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank Eurodollar market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such LIBOR Loans, a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over Lender has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be made available or used for determining the interest rate of loans and such date has occurred, the LIBOR Rate as determined by Administrative Agent will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of maintaining or funding LIBOR Loans for such Interest Period (taking into account any amount to which such Lenders may be entitled under Section 8.1), or that the making or funding of LIBOR Loans has become impracticable as a result of an event occurring after the date of this Agreement which in the opinion of such Lenders materially affects such Loans;
