Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On December 23, 2016, Phibro Animal Health Corporation (the “Company”) entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement”) with Bank of America, N.A. (“Bank of America”) and Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., New York Branch (f/k/a Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank, B.A., “Rabobank Nederland,” New York Branch) (“Rabobank”), which amends the Credit Agreement, dated as of April 16, 2014, among the Company, Bank of America, as administrative agent, collateral agent and L/C issuer, and each lender from time to time party thereto (the “Original Credit Agreement”), as amended by Amendment No. 1, dated as of January 19, 2016 (“Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement” and together with Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement, the “Credit Agreement Amendments”; the Original Credit Agreement as amended by the Credit Agreement Amendments, the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

  

Pursuant to Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement, the Company has agreed to increase the applicable interest rate it pays on the revolving credit commitments available under its credit facility. In the case of Eurodollar Rate Loans and LIBOR Daily Rate Floating Loans (as each term is defined in the Original Credit Agreement), the applicable rate increases from a rate ranging from (i) 2.75% per annum to 2.50% per annum under the Original Credit Agreement to (ii) 3.00% per annum to 2.50% per annum under the Amended Credit Agreement. In the case of Base Rate Loans (as defined in the Credit Agreement), the applicable rate increases from a rate ranging from (i) 1.75% per annum to 1.50% per annum to (ii) 2.00% per annum to 1.50% per annum. Determination of the applicable rate is based on the Company’s First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Original Credit Agreement). In exchange for the increase in interest rate, the Company is no longer required to pay a quarterly fee to Bank of America and Rabobank.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment No. 2 to Credit Agreement, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference, the Original Credit Agreement, which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed April 23, 2014 and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference, and Amendment No. 1 to Credit Agreement which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 on the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed January 19, 2016 and is incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
