Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On November 12, 2021, Tecnoglass Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its direct and indirect subsidiaries, as borrowers (“Borrowers”) amended its existing $50 million senior revolving credit facility to (i) increase the borrowing capacity under revolving loan commitment from $50 million to $150 million, (ii) reduce its borrowing costs by an approximate 130 basis points, and (iii) extend the initial maturity date by one year to November 12, 2026. Borrowings under the credit facility will now bear interest at a rate of LIBOR with no floor plus a spread of 1.75%, based on the Company’s net leverage ratio, compared to a prior rate of LIBOR with a floor of 0.75% plus a spread of 2.50%. The Company expects the amendments to provide approximately $3 million of incremental interest expense savings on an annual basis at current outstanding borrowings. The amended facility was led by PNC Bank N.A as Administrative Agent, with Citizens Bank N.A, BBVA USA, CIT Bank and Wells Fargo Bank N.A serving as Joint Lead Arrangers

 

All other material terms of the credit facility remain unchanged.

 

The foregoing summary of the amendments to the credit facility are qualified in their entirety by reference to the text of the actual amended agreement.

 

A press release announcing the Company entering into the foregoing is attached to this Form 8-K as Exhibit 99.1.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
