style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:10px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">On March 23, 2020, Lowe&#8217;s Companies, Inc. (the &#8220;Company&#8221;) entered into a $1.020&#160;billion five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement (the &#8220;2020 Credit Agreement&#8221;) with the lenders named therein, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing-line lender, and a letter of credit issuer, U.S. Bank National Association, as syndication agent and a letter of credit issuer, and Citibank, N.A., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-documentation agents.  In connection with the 2020 Credit Agreement, the Company terminated all commitments under the 364-Day Credit Agreement, dated as of September 9, 2019, as of March 23, 2020.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the 2020 Credit Agreement. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Subject to obtaining commitments from the lenders and satisfying other conditions specified in the 2020 Credit Agreement, the Company may increase the aggregate availability under the facility by an additional $250&#160;million. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The Company may request borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement that are denominated in any of the following currencies: U.S.&#160;Dollar, Euro, Sterling, Canadian Dollar and such other currencies as are approved by the administrative agent and the lenders in accordance with the 2020 Credit Agreement.  The Company must repay the aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the 2020 Credit Agreement on the Termination Date in effect at such time (currently March 23, 2025). </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">Borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Company&#8217;s option, calculated according to a Base Rate or a Eurocurrency Rate, as the case may be, plus an applicable margin.  Depending on the Company&#8217;s credit ratings at the time of the borrowing, the applicable margin on a Base Rate Loan ranges from 0.000% to 0.100% and the applicable margin on a Eurocurrency Rate Loan ranges from 0.690% to 1.100%.  At the Company&#8217;s current credit ratings, the applicable margin would be 0.000% for a Base Rate Loan and 0.910% for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">In addition, the Company must pay (i)&#160;a facility fee on the lenders&#8217; aggregate commitments under the 2020 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.060% to 0.150%&#160;per annum, depending on the Company&#8217;s credit ratings, and (ii)&#160;a letter of credit fee for the outstanding letters of credit under the 2020 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.690% to 1.100%&#160;per annum, depending on the Company&#8217;s credit ratings.  At the Company&#8217;s current credit ratings, the facility fee would be 0.090% of the aggregate commitments of the lenders (regardless of whether any borrowings are outstanding), and the letter of credit fee for an outstanding letter of credit would be computed at 0.910%.  As of the date hereof, there are no outstanding borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The 2020 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants for a transaction of this type, including a financial covenant concerning the ratio of Consolidated Adjusted Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDAR, as set forth in the 2020 Credit Agreement.  The 2020 Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter a Consolidated Adjusted Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDAR ratio that does not exceed 4.00 to 1.00. </span></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-top:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><span style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">The 2020 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including a cross-default provision and a change of control provision.&#160; In the event of a default, the administrative agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the required lenders, declare the obligations under the 2020 Credit Agreement immediately due and payable and the commitments of the lenders may be terminated. &#160;For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, the commitments of the lenders are automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations become due and payable. </span></div><div

Item 1.01        Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 23, 2020, Lowe's Companies, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a $1.020 billion five-year unsecured revolving credit agreement (the "2020 Credit Agreement") with the lenders named therein, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing-line lender, and a letter of credit issuer, U.S. Bank National Association, as syndication agent and a letter of credit issuer, and Citibank, N.A., Goldman Sachs Bank USA, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-documentation agents.  In connection with the 2020 Credit Agreement, the Company terminated all commitments under the 364-Day Credit Agreement, dated as of September 9, 2019, as of March 23, 2020.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the 2020 Credit Agreement.
Subject to obtaining commitments from the lenders and satisfying other conditions specified in the 2020 Credit Agreement, the Company may increase the aggregate availability under the facility by an additional $250 million.
The Company may request borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement that are denominated in any of the following currencies: U.S. Dollar, Euro, Sterling, Canadian Dollar and such other currencies as are approved by the administrative agent and the lenders in accordance with the 2020 Credit Agreement.  The Company must repay the aggregate principal amount of loans outstanding under the 2020 Credit Agreement on the Termination Date in effect at such time (currently March 23, 2025).
Borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement will bear interest, at the Company's option, calculated according to a Base Rate or a Eurocurrency Rate, as the case may be, plus an applicable margin.  Depending on the Company's credit ratings at the time of the borrowing, the applicable margin on a Base Rate Loan ranges from 0.000% to 0.100% and the applicable margin on a Eurocurrency Rate Loan ranges from 0.690% to 1.100%.  At the Company's current credit ratings, the applicable margin would be 0.000% for a Base Rate Loan and 0.910% for a Eurocurrency Rate Loan.
In addition, the Company must pay (i) a facility fee on the lenders' aggregate commitments under the 2020 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.060% to 0.150% per annum, depending on the Company's credit ratings, and (ii) a letter of credit fee for the outstanding letters of credit under the 2020 Credit Agreement ranging from 0.690% to 1.100% per annum, depending on the Company's credit ratings.  At the Company's current credit ratings, the facility fee would be 0.090% of the aggregate commitments of the lenders (regardless of whether any borrowings are outstanding), and the letter of credit fee for an outstanding letter of credit would be computed at 0.910%.  As of the date hereof, there are no outstanding borrowings under the 2020 Credit Agreement.
The 2020 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, and covenants for a transaction of this type, including a financial covenant concerning the ratio of Consolidated Adjusted Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDAR, as set forth in the 2020 Credit Agreement.  The 2020 Credit Agreement requires the Company to maintain at the end of each fiscal quarter a Consolidated Adjusted Funded Debt to Consolidated EBITDAR ratio that does not exceed 4.00 to 1.00.
The 2020 Credit Agreement also contains customary events of default, including a cross-default provision and a change of control provision.  In the event of a default, the administrative agent shall, at the request of, or may, with the consent of, the required lenders, declare the obligations under the 2020 Credit Agreement immediately due and payable and the commitments of the lenders may be terminated.  For certain events of default relating to insolvency and receivership, the commitments of the lenders are automatically terminated and all outstanding obligations become due and payable.
The foregoing description of the 2020 Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2020 Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Certain lender parties to the 2020 Credit Agreement and certain of their respective affiliates have performed in the past, and may from time to time perform in the future, banking, investment banking and other advisory services for the Company and its affiliates for which they have received, and/or will receive, customary fees and expenses.
