2014 Credit Agreement

On August 13, 2014 the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2014 Credit Agreement”), with the lenders party thereto and Credit Suisse AG, as administrative agent and collateral agent. In connection with the 2014 Credit Agreement, the Company terminated its existing amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of August 5, 2011, as amended (the “2011 Credit Agreement”), among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, the lenders thereunder and Credit Suisse AG, as administrative agent and collateral agent, and related agreements and documents.

The 2014 Credit Agreement provides the Company with a senior secured revolving line of credit of up to $600 million that is available through August 13, 2019, a $230.0 million senior secured term loan and a €200.0 million senior secured term loan, which both mature on August 13, 2021. The 2014 Credit Agreement allows unlimited incremental commitments, which may be extended at the option of the existing or new lenders and can be in the form of revolving credit commitments, term loan commitments, or a combination of both as long as the Company satisfies a senior secured debt financial ratio contained in the 2014 Credit Agreement.

The 2014 Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with a number of covenants. The covenants limit, in certain circumstances, the Company’s ability to take a variety of actions, including but not limited to: incur indebtedness; create or maintain liens on its property or assets; make investments, loans and advances; repurchase shares of its Common Stock; engage in acquisitions, mergers, consolidations and asset sales; redeem debt; and pay dividends and distributions. If the Company’s borrowings under its revolving line of credit are greater than 30% of the total revolving credit commitments, the 2014 Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial tests, as defined in the 2014 Credit Agreement. If applicable, the minimum required levels of the interest coverage ratio would be 2.5 to 1.0 and the maximum permitted levels of the senior secured leverage ratio would be 2.75 to 1.0. The 2014 Credit Agreement also contains customary default provisions. The 2014 Credit Agreement also has various non-financial covenants, both requiring the Company to refrain from taking certain future actions (as described above) and requiring the Company to take certain actions, such as keeping its corporate existence in good standing, maintaining insurance, and providing its bank lending group with financial information on a timely basis.

In connection with the termination of the 2011 Credit Agreement, the Company recorded charges of $2.6 million for the accelerated amortization of debt acquisition costs and original issue discount as a loss on early extinguishment of debt for the year ended December 31, 2014.

On May 16, 2013, the Company repaid $110.0 million of the outstanding U.S. dollar denominated term loan and €83.5 million of the outstanding Euro denominated term loan under the 2011 Credit Agreement. As a result of the repayment the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $5.2 million in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2014.

On October 12, 2012, the Company and its lenders entered into an amendment of the 2011 Credit Agreement (the “2012 Amendment”). As a result of the 2012 Amendment, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $1.9 million in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2012, which included non-cash charges for accelerated amortization of debt acquisition costs and original issue discount. In preparing the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, these non-cash items were added to net income.

As of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had $467.9 million and $495.3 million, respectively, in U.S. dollar and Euro denominated term loans outstanding under its credit agreements. The weighted average interest rate on the term loans at December 31, 2014 and 2013 was 3.76% and 3.66%, respectively. The Company had no outstanding U.S. dollar and Euro denominated revolving credit amounts as of December 31, 2014. The Company had $117.7 million in U.S. dollar denominated revolving credit amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2013. The weighted average interest rate on the revolving credit amounts at December 31, 2013 was 5.30%.

The 2014 Credit Agreement incorporates facilities for issuance of letters of credit up to $400 million.  Letters of credit issued under the 2014 Credit Agreement letter of credit facility decrease availability under the $600 million revolving line of credit.  As of December 31, 2014 the Company had no letters of credit issued under the 2014 Credit Agreement. As of December 31, 2013, the Company had letters of credit issued under the 2011 Credit Agreement that totaled $54.2 million.  The 2014 Credit Agreement also permits the Company to have additional letter of credit facilities up to $300 million, and letters of credit issued under such additional facilities do not decrease availability under the revolving line of credit. The Company had letters of credit issued under the additional letter of credit facilities of the 2014 Credit Agreement and 2011 Credit Agreement that totaled $30.4 million and $3.1 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company also has bilateral arrangements to issue letters of credit with various other financial institutions.  These additional letters of credit do not reduce the Company’s availability under the 2014 Credit Agreement.  The Company had letters of credit issued under these additional arrangements of $261.5 million and $283.1 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

In total, as of December 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had letters of credit outstanding of $291.9 million and $340.4 million, respectively. The letters of credit generally serve as collateral for certain liabilities included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Certain letters of credit serve as collateral guaranteeing the Company’s performance under contracts.

The Company and certain of its subsidiaries agreed to take certain actions to secure borrowings under the 2014 Credit Agreement.  As a result, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with Credit Suisse, as collateral agent for the lenders, granting security to the lenders for amounts borrowed under the 2014 Credit Agreement.  The Company is required to (a) pledge as collateral the capital stock of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of certain of the Company’s material foreign subsidiaries, and (b) provide a first priority security interest in, and mortgages on, substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets.

6-1/2% Senior Notes

On March 27, 2012, the Company sold and issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2020 (“6-1/2% Notes”) at par. The proceeds from these notes were used for general corporate purposes. The 6-1/2% Notes are redeemable by the Company beginning in April 2016 at an initial redemption price of 103.25% of principal amount. The 6-1/2% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (see Note R – “Consolidating Financial Statements”).

6% Senior Notes

On November 26, 2012, the Company sold and issued $850 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes due 2021 (“6% Notes”) at par. The proceeds from this offering plus other cash was used to redeem all $800 million principal amount of the outstanding 8% Notes. The 6% Notes are redeemable by the Company beginning in November 2016 at an initial redemption price of 103.00% of principal amount. The 6% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (see Note R – “Consolidating Financial Statements”).

10-7/8% Senior Notes

On June 3, 2009, the Company sold and issued $300 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2016 (“10-7/8% Notes”). On September 28, 2012, the Company repaid the outstanding $299.9 million principal amount of its 10-7/8% Notes. The total cash paid to redeem the 10-7/8% Notes was $347.3 million which included a make whole call premium of 12.265%, totaling $36.8 million plus accrued and unpaid interest of $10.6 million at the redemption date.

The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $42.9 million in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes (a) cash payments of $36.8 million for call premiums associated with the repayment of $299.9 million of outstanding debt and (b) $6.1 million of non-cash charges for accelerated amortization of debt acquisition costs related to the redemption of the 10-7/8% Notes, and original issue discount, which all flow into the calculation of net income. In preparing the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the non-cash item (b) was added to net income to reflect cash flow appropriately.

4% Convertible Senior Subordinated Notes

On June 3, 2009, the Company sold and issued $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 4% Convertible Notes.  In certain circumstances and during certain periods, the 4% Convertible Notes will be convertible at an initial conversion rate of 61.5385 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes, equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $16.25 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustment in some events.  Upon conversion, Terex will deliver cash up to the aggregate principal amount of the 4% Convertible Notes to be converted and shares of Common Stock with respect to the remainder, if any, of Terex’s convertible obligation in excess of the aggregate principal amount of the 4% Convertible Notes being converted. The 4% Convertible Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries (see Note R – “Consolidating Financial Statements”).

The Company, as issuer of the 4% Convertible Notes, must separately account for the liability and equity components of the 4% Convertible Notes in a manner that reflects the Company’s nonconvertible debt borrowing rate at the date of issuance when interest cost is recognized in subsequent periods.  The Company allocated $54.3 million of the $172.5 million principal amount of the 4% Convertible Notes to the equity component, which represents a discount to the debt and will be amortized into interest expense using the effective interest method through June 2015.  The Company recorded a related deferred tax liability of $19.4 million on the equity component. During the third quarter of 2012, the Company purchased approximately 25% of the principal amount outstanding of its 4% Convertible Notes due 2015 for approximately $64 million, including $0.3 million of accrued interest. These purchases reduced the balance of the 4% Convertible Notes outstanding by $36.1 million and reduced equity by $19.1 million. The Company recorded a loss on early retirement of debt in the Consolidated Statement of Income of $6.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes (a) cash payments of $5.9 million for debt principal over book value and (b) $0.6 million for non-cash charges for accelerated amortization of debt issuance costs.

The balance of the 4% Convertible Notes was $125.0 million and $116.7 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively, reflecting the impact of the purchase discussed above.  The Company recognized interest expense of $13.5 million and $12.6 million on the 4% Convertible Notes for the years ended December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.  The interest expense recognized for the 4% Convertible Notes will increase as the discount is amortized using the effective interest method, which accretes the debt balance over its term to $128.8 million at maturity.  Interest expense on the 4% Convertible Notes throughout its term includes 4% annually of cash interest on the maturity balance of $128.8 million plus non-cash interest expense accreted to the debt balance as described.

The Company paid a dividend of $0.05 per share in each quarter of 2014. Under the terms of the 4% Convertible Notes, cumulative dividends have changed the initial conversion ratio from 61.5385 to 61.9685 shares of common stock.

8% Senior Subordinated Notes

On November 13, 2007, the Company sold and issued $800 million aggregate principal amount of 8% Notes. The 8% Notes were redeemable by the Company beginning in November 2012 at an initial redemption price of 104.00% of principal amount.

In the fourth quarter of 2012, the Company used the net proceeds from the 6% Notes offering plus other cash to redeem, via tender and subsequent call, all $800 million principal amount of its outstanding 8% Notes. Total cash paid to redeem the 8% Notes was $837.3 million and included tender/call premiums of $34.6 million and accrued interest of $2.7 million.

The Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt of $28.7 million in the Consolidated Statement of Income for the year ended December 31, 2012, which includes (a) cash payments of $35.4 million for call premiums and other expenses associated with the repayment of outstanding debt, (b) $9.3 million of non-cash charges for accelerated amortization of debt acquisition costs related to the redemption of the 8% Notes and (c) $16.0 million of gain related to the termination of the swap agreement associated with the redemption of the Notes, which all flow into the calculation of net income. In preparing the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, the non-cash item (b) was added to net income and the swap termination item (c) was added to Loss on early extinguishment of debt, to reflect cash flow appropriately.
