2017 Credit Agreement

On January 31, 2017, the Company entered into a credit agreement (as amended, the “2017 Credit Agreement”) with the lenders and issuing banks party thereto and Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch (“CSAG”), as administrative agent and collateral agent. The 2017 Credit Agreement includes (i) a $600 million revolving line of credit (the “Revolver”) and (ii) senior secured term loans totaling $600 million that will mature on January 31, 2024 (the “Term Loans”); both are further described below. On April 23, 2020, the Company entered into a Loan Modification Agreement and Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) to the 2017 Credit Agreement. Amendment No. 4 extended the term of the Revolver to expire on January 31, 2023.

The 2017 Credit Agreement contains a $400 million senior secured term loan (the “Original Term Loan”). On August 17, 2017, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment No. 1 to the 2017 Credit Agreement which lowered the interest rate on the Original Term Loan by 25 basis points. On February 28, 2018, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment No. 2 (“Amendment No. 2”) to the 2017 Credit Agreement which lowered the interest rate on the Original Term Loan by an additional 25 basis points. The Original Term Loan portion of the 2017 Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate of London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 2.00% with a 0.75% LIBOR floor. On March 7, 2019, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement and Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) to the 2017 Credit Agreement. Amendment No. 3 provided the Company with an additional term loan (the “2019 Term Loan”) under the 2017 Credit Agreement in the amount of $200 million. The 2019 Term Loan portion of the 2017 Credit Agreement bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 2.75% with a 0.75% LIBOR floor.

The 2017 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, with incremental amounts in excess of $300 million ($150 million through 2021 as a result of Amendment No. 4) as long as the Company satisfies a senior secured leverage ratio contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2017 Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with a number of covenants which 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 the Revolver are greater than 30% of the total revolving credit commitments, the 2017 Credit Agreement requires the Company to comply with certain financial tests, as defined in the 2017 Credit Agreement. Amendment No. 4 waived compliance with the minimum required levels of the interest coverage ratio (“Interest Coverage Ratio”) and the maximum permitted levels of the senior secured leverage ratio (“Senior Secured Leverage Ratio”) through December 31, 2020, replacing them with a sliding scale minimum liquidity requirement of $100 million at June 30 and September 30, 2020 and $150 million at December 31, 2020. Maximum levels of the Senior Secured Leverage Ratio will be 3.75 to 1.0 at March 31, 2021, 3.25 to 1.0 at June 30, 2021 and 2.75 to 1.0 at September 30, 2021 and thereafter. If applicable, beginning in 2022, the Interest Coverage Ratio would be 2.5 to 1.0. The 2017 Credit Agreement also contains customary default provisions.
In addition, Amendment No. 4 prohibited share repurchases and dividends, contained anti-cash hoarding provisions and additional financial reporting provisions until December 31, 2020. Amendment No. 4 also increased the interest rate on the Revolver by 25 basis points until December 31, 2021. The Company, at its sole option, has the ability to revert to original financial covenants and Revolver pricing. The Company was in compliance with all covenants contained in the 2017 Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2020.

During the year ended December 31, 2018, the Company recorded a loss on early extinguishment of debt related to Amendment No. 2 to the 2017 Credit Agreement of approximately $0.7 million.

As of December 31, 2020 and 2019, the Company had, $579.9 million and $585.5 million, net of discount, respectively, in Term Loans outstanding under the 2017 Credit Agreement. The weighted average interest rate on the Term Loans at December 31, 2020 and 2019 was 3.00% and 4.10%, respectively. The Company had no revolving credit amounts outstanding as of December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. In February 2021, the Company initiated its option to prepay the 2019 Term Loan under the 2017 Credit Agreement prior to its maturity date to reduce the Company’s outstanding debt and lower its leverage. The Company expects to record a loss on early extinguishment of debt related to prepayment of approximately $2 million for accelerated amortization of debt acquisition costs and original issue discount in the first quarter of 2021.

The Company issues letters of credit that generally serve as collateral for certain liabilities included in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and guaranteeing the Company’s performance under contracts. Letters of credit can be issued under two facilities provided in the 2017 Credit Agreement and via bilateral arrangements outside the 2017 Credit Agreement.

The 2017 Credit Agreement incorporates secured facilities for issuance of letters of credit up to $400 million (the “$400 Million Facility”).  Letters of credit issued under the $400 Million Facility decrease availability under the Revolver.  The 2017 Credit Agreement also permits the Company to have additional secured facilities for the issuance of letters of credit up to $300 million (the “$300 Million Facility”). Letters of credit issued under the $300 Million Facility do not decrease availability under the Revolver.

The Company also has bilateral arrangements to issue letters of credit with various other financial institutions (the “Bilateral Arrangements”).  The Bilateral Arrangements are not secured under the 2017 Credit Agreement and do not decrease availability under the Revolver.

Furthermore, the Company and certain of its subsidiaries agreed to take certain actions to secure borrowings under the 2017 Credit Agreement. As a result, on January 31, 2017, Terex and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a Guarantee and Collateral Agreement with CSAG, as collateral agent for the lenders, granting security and guarantees to the lenders for amounts borrowed under the 2017 Credit Agreement. Pursuant to the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, Terex 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 substantially all of the Company’s domestic assets.

5-5/8% Senior Notes

On January 31, 2017, the Company sold and issued $600.0 million aggregate principal amount of Senior Notes Due 2025 (“5-5/8% Notes”) at par in a private offering. The proceeds from the 5-5/8% Notes, together with cash on hand, including cash from the sale of the Company’s Material Handling and Port Solutions business, was used: (i) to complete a tender offer for up to $550.0 million of the Company’s Senior Notes due 2021 (“6% Notes”), (ii) to redeem and discharge such portion of the 6% Notes not purchased in the tender offer, (iii) to fund a $300.0 million partial redemption of the 6% Notes, (iv) to fund repayment of all $300.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding of the Company’s 6-1/2% Senior Notes due 2021 on or before April 3, 2017, (v) to pay related premiums, fees, discounts and expenses, and (vi) for general corporate purposes. The 5-5/8% Notes are jointly and severally guaranteed by certain of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

Fair Value of Debt

Based on indicative price quotations from financial institutions multiplied by the amount recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet (“Book Value”), the Company estimates the fair values of its debt set forth below as of December 31, 2020 and 2019, as follows (in millions, except for quotes):
2020Book ValueQuoteFair Value
5-5/8% Notes$600.0 $1.02750 $616.5 
2017 Credit Agreement - Original Term Loan (net of discount)$384.0 $0.98750 $379.2 
2017 Credit Agreement - 2019 Term Loan (net of discount)$195.9 $0.99000 $193.9

2017 Credit Agreement - 2019 Term Loan (net of discount)$197.7 $1.00938 $199.6 

The fair value of debt reported in the table above is based on price quotations on the debt instrument in an active market and therefore is categorized under Level 1 of the ASC 820 hierarchy. See Note A – “Basis of Presentation” for an explanation of ASC 820 hierarchy. The Company believes that the carrying value of its other borrowings, including amounts outstanding, if any, for the revolving credit line under the 2017 Credit Agreement approximate fair market value based on maturities for debt of similar terms. Fair value of these other borrowings are categorized under Level 2 of the ASC 820 hierarchy.

The Company paid $58.1 million, $70.9 million and $57.5 million of interest in 2020, 2019 and 2018, respectively.
