Item 1.01. |
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
|
Effective as of February 22, 2023, STRATTEC SECURITY CORPORATION (the "Company")

Amendment No. 2 dated June 25, 2015, an Amendment No. 3 dated June 24, 2016, an Amendment No. 4 dated June 26, 2017, an Amendment No. 5 dated September 28, 2018, an Amendment No. 6 dated October 28, 2019 and an Amendment No. 7 dated June 1, 2021
(collectively, the "STRATTEC Credit Agreement"), with BMO Harris Bank N.A., as lender. The Amendment modifies the benchmark for purposes of determining interest on

Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
