Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On December 10, 2024, Travel + Leisure Co. (the “Borrower”) entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to that certain Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2018, among the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent and the other parties thereto (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”). The Sixth Amendment, among other things, established term loans in an aggregate principal amount of $875 million (the “2024 Term Loan B Facility”), the net proceeds of which, together with cash on hand, were used to replace and reprice $593 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company’s 2023 incremental term loan B facility (the “2023 Term Loan B Facility”) and refinance $282 million of outstanding borrowings under the Company’s 2018 term loan B facility due May 31, 2025 (the “2018 Term Loan B Facility”) and to pay related fees and expenses. The 2024 Term Loan B Facility matures on December 14, 2029, which is consistent with the prior maturity date of the 2023 Term Loan B Facility.
The 2024 Term Loan B Facility has substantially the same terms as the 2023 Term Loan B Facility, except, among other things, the 2024 Term Loan B Facility bears interest at the Borrower’s option at a rate of (a) Base Rate (which is the highest of Bank of America’s prime rate, the federal funds rate plus 0.50%, and the Term SOFR (as defined in the Credit Agreement) one month rate, plus an applicable rate of 1.50%, or (b) the Term SOFR rate, plus an applicable rate of 2.50% (subject to a floor of 0.50%). The SOFR Adjustment (as defined in the Credit Agreement) does not apply to either option.
The 2024 Term Loan B Facility may be prepaid at any time, without prepayment premium or penalty, but is subject to a prepayment premium of 1.00% if a prepayment of the 2024 Term Loan B Facility is made in connection with certain “repricing events” at any time during the first six months after the closing date.
The description of the Sixth Amendment in this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”) is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms of the Sixth Amendment included therein. The Sixth Amendment is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
