Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 15, 2019, Novelis Inc. (the "Company") entered into an amendment (the "Amendment") to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as previously amended and as amended by the Amendment, the "ABL Facility"), dated as of October 6, 2014, among the Company and subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the guarantors party thereto, Wells Fargo as administrative agent and collateral agent, and the lenders party thereto.
The Amendment increases the commitments under the ABL Facility by $500 million to $1.5 billion upon the earlier of the closing of our previously announced proposed acquisition (the "Acquisition") of Aleris Corporation ("Aleris") and October 15, 2019. Aleris and certain of its subsidiaries will become borrowers under the ABL Facility upon closing of the Acquisition, and the Amendment includes additional changes to facilitate the Acquisition and the inclusion of Aleris's assets in the borrowing base following the Acquisition.
The Amendment also extends the maturity of the ABL Facility until April 15, 2024; provided that, (1) in the event that our $1.5 billion Short Term Credit Agreement is outstanding (and not refinanced with a maturity date later than October 15, 2024) 60 days prior to its maturity then the ABL Facility will mature 60 days prior to the maturity date of the Short Term Credit Agreement (provided further that if we have commenced a refinancing of the Short Term Credit Agreement that is continuing on and after the date that is 60 days prior to the maturity date of the Short Term Credit Agreement and that is scheduled to be and is capable of being completed prior to the date that is 45 days prior to the maturity date of the Short Term Credit Agreement, then the ABL Facility will mature 45 days prior to the maturity date of the Short Term Credit Agreement);  and (2) in the event that our senior unsecured notes, secured term loan credit agreement or certain other indebtedness is outstanding 90 days prior to its maturity (and not refinanced with a maturity date later than October 15, 2024), then the ABL Facility will mature 90 days prior to the maturity date for such other indebtedness, as applicable; unless excess availability under the ABL Facility is at least (i) 20% of the lesser of (x) the total ABL Facility commitment and (y) the then applicable borrowing base and (ii) 15% of the lesser of (x) the total ABL Facility commitment and (y) the then applicable borrowing base, and a minimum fixed charge ratio test of at least 1.25 to 1 is met.
The Amendment also includes additional changes to increase our operating flexibility.
The foregoing description of the Amendment is a general description and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which the Company plans to file as an exhibit to its next annual report on Form 10-K.
