On September 30, 2016, Textron entered into a senior unsecured revolving credit facility that expires in September 2021 for an aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion, of which up to $100 million is available for the issuance of letters of credit.  At December 31, 2016, there were no amounts borrowed against the facility and there were $11 million of letters of credit issued against it.  This facility replaced the existing 5-year facility, which had no outstanding borrowings and was scheduled to expire in October 2018.

 

6% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Notes

The Finance group’s $299 million of 6% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Junior Subordinated Notes are unsecured and rank junior to all of its existing and future senior debt.  The notes mature on February 15, 2067; however, we have the right to redeem the notes at par on or after February 15, 2017 and are obligated to redeem the notes beginning on February 15, 2042.  Interest on the notes is fixed at 6% until February 15, 2017 and is variable at the three-month London Interbank Offered Rate + 1.735% thereafter.

 

Support Agreement

Under a Support Agreement, as amended in December 2015, Textron Inc. is required to ensure that TFC maintains fixed charge coverage of no less than 125% and consolidated shareholder’s equity of no less than $125 million.  There were no cash contributions required to be paid to TFC in 2016, 2015 and 2014 to maintain compliance with the support agreement.
