Item 2.03.
Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
As previously disclosed, on May 9, 2019, Macy’s, Inc. (“Macy’s”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, Macy’s Retail Holdings, Inc. (“MRHI”), entered into a Credit Agreement dated as of May 9, 2019 (the “Credit Agreement”) among Macy’s, MRHI, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith, Incorporated, Credit Suisse Loan Funding LLC, Fifth Third Bank, U.S. Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, as joint bookrunners and lead arrangers.  The Credit Agreement provides MRHI, as borrower, with unsecured revolving credit in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 billion outstanding at any time, including a $400 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit.  The revolving credit commitments provided for in the Credit Agreement are scheduled to expire on May 9, 2024, subject to up to two one-year extensions that may be requested by MRHI and agreed to by the lenders.  The Credit Agreement replaces the Credit Agreement dated as of May 6, 2016, which provided unsecured revolving credit to MHRI in an aggregate amount not to exceed $1.5 billion outstanding at any time and was scheduled to expire on May 6, 2021. 
On March 19, 2020, MRHI provided notice to the administrative agent under the Credit Agreement to draw down the entire available amount under the revolving credit facility and, as of March 24, 2020 a total of $1.5 billion was outstanding under the revolving credit facility. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility are scheduled to mature on May 9, 2024, and MRHI may repay amounts borrowed any time without penalty.
MRHI increased its borrowings under the revolving credit facility as a proactive measure to increase its cash position and preserve financial flexibility in light of current uncertainty in the global markets resulting from the COVID-19 outbreak.
