Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Amendment to Term Loan Agreement
On December 8, 2016, Boise Cascade Company (“the Company”) and its principal operating subsidiaries, Boise Cascade Wood Products, L.L.C., and Boise Cascade Building Materials Distribution, L.L.C., as borrowers, and Boise Cascade Wood Products Holdings Corp., Chester Wood Products LLC, and Moncure Plywood LLC, as guarantors, entered into the First Amendment to the Term Loan Agreement (the “Term Loan Amendment”) with American AgCredit, PCA, as administrative agent and sole lead arranger, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, originally dated March 30, 2016.
The Term Loan Amendment allows the Company to prepay its $75 million term loan (the “Term Loan”) (in whole or in part) and subsequently reborrow amounts prepaid on or before December 31, 2018. The Company's option to reborrow applicable prepaid principal amounts expires on December 31, 2019. Reborrowings may be made in up to three instances in minimum amounts of $10 million each. In addition, amounts prepaid and eligible for reborrowing are subject to an unused line fee of 0.325% per annum times the average daily amount of the unused commitments.
The Term Loan Amendment sets forth procedures for reborrowing and also amends certain provisions relating to permitted indebtedness and refinancing of the Company’s indebtedness and certain provisions related to the Company’s $350 million senior unsecured notes issued on August 29, 2016.
The foregoing summary of the Term Loan Amendment is qualified in its entirety to the complete text of the Term Loan Amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Amendment to Senior Secured Asset-Based Credit Facility
On December 8, 2016, the Company and its principal operating subsidiaries, Boise Cascade Wood Products, L.L.C., and Boise Cascade Building Materials Distribution, L.L.C., as borrowers, and Boise Cascade Wood Products Holdings Corp., Chester Wood Products LLC, and Moncure Plywood LLC, as guarantors, entered into the Fourth Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Facility Amendment”) with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC, as administrative agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto, originally dated May 15, 2015 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or otherwise modified before the date of the Credit Facility Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”).
The Credit Facility Amendment modifies sections of the Credit Agreement related to permitted indebtedness. In particular, the Credit Facility Amendment increases the Company’s ability to issue other unsecured indebtedness to $100 million from $25 million provided that the Company is in compliance with certain financial covenants after giving effect to the debt incurrence on a pro forma basis. The Credit Facility Amendment also incorporates or amends certain provisions relating to the Term Loan, and the Company’s $350 million senior unsecured notes issued on August 29, 2016.
The foregoing summary of the Credit Facility Amendment is qualified in its entirety to the complete text of the Credit Facility Amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On December 8, 2016, following the entry into the Term Loan Amendment, the Company prepaid $30 million of the term loan, which became available to reborrow pursuant to the Term Loan Amendment.
