Exhibit 10.1

AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This AMENDMENT NO. 1 TO NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Amendment”), is made as of October 31, 2016, by and among (a) AMETEK, INC., a Delaware corporation (together with its successors and assigns, the “Company”), and (b) each of the Noteholders (as defined below) signatory hereto, with respect to that certain Note Purchase Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2014, (as in effect immediately prior to giving effect to this Amendment, the “Existing Note Agreement” and, as amended pursuant to this Amendment and as may be further amended, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Note Agreement”), by and among the Company and each holder of the Notes (collectively, the “Noteholders”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Existing Note Agreement.

RECITALS:

A.        The Company and the Noteholders are parties to the Existing Note Agreement, pursuant to which the Company issued and sold the Notes to the Noteholders; and

B.        The Company has requested, and the Majority Holders have agreed to, certain amendments to the provisions of the Existing Note Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

AGREEMENT:

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Majority Holders agree as follows:

 

1. AMENDMENTS TO EXISTING NOTE AGREEMENT.

Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 3 hereof, the Existing Note Agreement is hereby amended by this Amendment as follows:

 

  1.1. Priority Debt.

Clause (c) of Section 10.1 of the Existing Note Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

“(c)      Priority Debt -- Priority Debt at any time to exceed 15% of Consolidated Total Assets (determined as of the end of the most recently ended fiscal quarter of the Company); provided, however, that no Lien created pursuant to Section 10.2(j) shall secure Indebtedness owing under the Bank Credit Agreement or any other note agreement to which the Company is a party unless the Notes are equally and ratably secured by all property subject to such Lien and no Subsidiary shall guaranty or otherwise become obligated in respect of such Indebtedness unless such Subsidiary guaranties, or becomes obligated in respect of, the Notes, in each case pursuant to documentation reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Foreign Subsidiary may become a borrower under the Bank Credit


Agreement, so long as it is liable only for the amount of its direct borrowings thereunder, and the Company shall not be required to cause such Foreign Subsidiary to guaranty the Notes in accordance with this clause (c), if (i) no Default or Event of Default exists and is continuing at the time such Foreign Subsidiary becomes a borrower under the Bank Credit Agreement and (ii) at such time the provision by such Foreign Subsidiary of a guaranty of the Notes would cause the earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s United States parent under the Code; provided, however, that a guaranty of the Notes from such Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to be delivered to the holders of Notes in accordance with this clause (c) on the earliest to occur thereafter of (x) a Default or Event of Default or (y) such time as the provision by such Foreign Subsidiary of a guaranty of the Notes would not cause the earnings of such Foreign Subsidiary to be treated as a deemed dividend to such Foreign Subsidiary’s United States parent under the Code. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) any borrowing by a Foreign Subsidiary under the Bank Credit Agreement shall constitute Priority Debt unless such Foreign Subsidiary shall have provided a guaranty or shall have otherwise become obligated in respect of the Notes in accordance with the terms of this Section 10.1(c), and (2) any Indebtedness owing under the Bank Credit Agreement or any other note agreement to which the Company is a party that is secured by a Lien created pursuant to Section 10.2(j) shall cease to constitute Priority Debt for purposes of the first sentence of this Section 10.1(c) at such time as the Notes are equally and ratably secured by all property subject to such Lien pursuant to documentation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Majority Holders, including, without limitation, an intercreditor agreement and opinions of counsel to the Company and/or any applicable Subsidiary, as the case may be, from counsel reasonably acceptable to the Majority Holders.”

 

  1.2. Accounting Terms; Change in GAAP.

Section 22.6 of the Existing Note Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

 

  22.6 Accounting Terms; Change in GAAP.

(a)         All accounting terms used herein which are not expressly defined in this Agreement have the meanings respectively given to them in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all computations made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made in accordance with GAAP and all balance sheets and other financial statements with respect thereto shall be prepared in accordance with GAAP. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any consolidated financial statement or financial computation shall be done in accordance with GAAP; and, if at the time that any such statement or computation is required to be made the Company shall not have any Subsidiary, such terms shall mean a financial statement or a financial computation, as the case may be, with respect to the Company only.

(b)         For purposes of determining compliance with this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 9, Section 10 and the definition of “Indebtedness”), any election by the Company to measure any financial liability using fair value (as permitted

 

2


by Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic No. 825-10-25 – Fair Value Option, International Accounting Standard 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement or any similar accounting standard) shall be disregarded and such determination shall be made as if such election had not been made.

(c)        If the Company shall notify the holders of Notes that the Company wishes to amend any covenant in Section 10 to eliminate the effect of any change in GAAP on the operation of such covenant (or if the Majority Holders notify the Company that the Majority Holders wish to amend Section 10 for such purpose), then the Company and the holders of the Notes shall negotiate in good faith to make such adjustments as shall be necessary to eliminate the effect of such change in GAAP on such covenant; provided that, until agreement is reached on such adjustments, the Company’s compliance with such covenant shall be determined on the basis of GAAP in effect immediately before the relevant change in GAAP became effective, until either such notice is withdrawn or such covenant is amended in a manner satisfactory to the Company and the Majority Holders, and the Company shall provide to the holders of Notes, with each certificate delivered pursuant to Section 7.2, a reconciliation showing calculations with respect to such covenant before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

 

  1.3. Definition of “Significant Subsidiary”.

The definition of “Significant Subsidiary” in Schedule B of the Existing Note Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

Significant Subsidiary” means, at any time, each Subsidiary the total assets of which account for at least 10% of Consolidated Total Assets (determined as of the end of the Company’s then most recently ended fiscal quarter) and any two or more Subsidiaries the total assets of which, taken together, represent, on an aggregate basis, not less than 10% of Consolidated Total Assets (determined as of the end of the Company’s then most recently ended fiscal quarter).
