On August 31, 2023 (the "

"), Microchip Technology Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the "
Company
"), entered into a First Incremental Term Loan Amendment (the "
Amendment
"), by and among the Company, the subsidiaries of the Company party thereto, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the "
Administrative Agent
").  The Amendment amends the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 16, 2021 (the "
Existing Credit Agreement
"), by and among the Company, the lenders from time-to-time party thereto and the Administrative Agent.  The Amendment provides for an incremental term loan facility (the "
2023 Incremental Term Loans
") in an aggregate principal amount of $750.0 million, which was borrowed in full on the Effective Date   The proceeds of the 2023 Incremental Term Loan may be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The 2023 Incremental Term Loans
bear interest, at the Company's option, at the base rate plus a spread of 0.125% to 0.50% or an adjusted term SOFR rate (based on one, three or six-month interest periods) plus a spread of 1.125% to 1.50%, in each case, with such spread being determined based on the credit ratings for certain of the Company's senior, unsecured debt.  The base rate means the highest of the prime rate, the federal funds rate plus a margin equal to 0.50% and the adjusted term SOFR rate for a 1-month interest period plus a margin equal to 1.00%. Interest is due and payable in arrears quarterly for 2023 Incremental Term Loans bearing interest at the base rate and at the end of an interest period (or at each three-month interval in the case of loans with interest periods greater than three months) in the case of 2023 Incremental Term Loans bearing interest at the adjusted term SOFR rate.
The Company is also obligated to pay other customary fees and costs in connection with the 2023 Incremental Term Loans.
The Company's obligations in respect of the 2023 Incremental Term Loans are guaranteed by certain of its subsidiaries meeting materiality thresholds set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement.
The 2023 Incremental Term Loans are otherwise subject to the same terms and conditions as those set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement, including but not limited to representations and warranties, events of default, and financial maintenance covenants.
Certain of the lenders under the Amendment and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, investment banking, commercial lending and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with the Company or the Company's affiliates.  They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions.
