Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 21, 2017, The Dayton Power and Light Company (“DP&L”), a subsidiary of DPL Inc. (“DPL”), and its lenders entered into an amendment to DP&L’s Revolving Credit Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2015, among DP&L, the lenders party thereto, PNC Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and an L/C Issuer, Fifth Third Bank, as Syndication Agent and an L/C Issuer, and Bank of America, N.A., as Documentation Agent and an L/C Issuer (the “Credit Agreement Amendment”) and an amendment to DP&L’s Bond Purchase and Covenant Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2015, among DP&L, SunTrust Bank, as Administrative Agent, and the several lenders party thereto (the “Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement Amendment”). The Credit Agreement Amendment and the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement Amendment each modified the definition of Consolidated Net Worth in the relevant agreement (which is used for measuring the Total Debt to Total Capitalization ratio under the relevant agreement), to exclude, through March 31, 2018, non-cash charges related directly to impairments of coal generation assets in DP&L’s fiscal quarter ending December 31, 2016 and thereafter.
The Credit Agreement Amendment and the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement Amendment also changed, with respect to each agreement, the dates after the planned separation of DP&L’s generation business from its distribution and transmission business during which compliance with the total capitalization ratio shall be suspended if long-term indebtedness of DP&L, as determined by the PUCO, is less than or equal to $750.0 million. This time period for each agreement previously was January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017. Following the effectiveness of the Credit Agreement Amendment and the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement Amendment, this time period is now the twelve months immediately subsequent to the separation of the generation assets from DP&L.
The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the Credit Agreement Amendment and the Bond Purchase and Covenants Agreement Amendment are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of such amendments, each which has been filed as an exhibit to DPL and DP&L’s combined Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, and are incorporated herein by reference.
