Item 1.01.                      Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Lexmark International, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), entered into a $350 million 5-year Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") on and effective as of January 18, 2012 (the "Effective Date") by and among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Citibank, N.A. as Syndication Agent, and SunTrust Bank and The Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Ltd., as Co-Documentation Agents, and each other institutional lender signatory thereto.
The Credit Agreement provides for a 5-year senior, unsecured, multicurrency revolving credit facility that includes the availability of swingline loans and multicurrency letters of credit. Under certain circumstances and subject to certain conditions, the aggregate amount available under the facility may be increased to a maximum of $500 million. Interest on all borrowings under the Credit Agreement is determined based upon either the Adjusted Base Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, in each case plus a margin that is adjusted on the basis of a combination of the Company's consolidated leverage ratio and the Company's index debt rating.
The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and also contains certain financial covenants, including those relating to (a) a minimum interest coverage ratio (consolidated EBITDA/consolidated interest expense) of not less than 3.0 to 1.0 and (b) a maximum leverage ratio (consolidated total indebtedness/consolidated EBITDA) of not more than 3.0 to 1.0. The Credit Agreement limits, among other things, the Company's indebtedness, liens and fundamental changes to its structure and business.
The Credit Agreement includes usual and customary events of default (subject, in most cases, to applicable grace periods) for facilities of this nature and provides that, upon the occurrence of an event of default, payment of all amounts due under the Credit Agreement may be accelerated and/or the lenders' commitments may be terminated. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain insolvency or bankruptcy related events of default, all amounts payable under the Credit Agreement shall automatically become immediately due and payable, and the lenders' commitments shall automatically terminate.
As of the Effective Date, there are no loans or letters of credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement. The foregoing summary of the terms of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K.
The Credit Agreement replaces the Company's current $300 million 3-year Multicurrency Revolving Credit Agreement entered into on August 17, 2009, by the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent, Citibank, N.A. and SunTrust Bank as Co-Documentation Agents and each other institutional lender signatory thereto (the "Terminated Credit Agreement"), which agreement was terminated on and effective as of the Effective Date of the Credit Agreement. The Terminated Credit Agreement allowed for swingline loans and the issuance of multicurrency letters of credit under the credit facility. Interest on all borrowings was determined based upon several alternative rates, including a rate based on LIBOR. The Terminated Credit Agreement contained certain financial
covenants, including those relating to the maintenance of a minimum interest coverage ratio and a maximum leverage ratio.
