Item 1.01. Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement.

On December 19, 2022, the Company, certain of its subsidiaries and Coöperatieve Rabobank U.A., New York Branch (“Rabobank”), and the other lenders named therein, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement providing for a $1.25 billion multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility, which replaced the Company’s former $800.0 million multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility and provided an additional $450.0 million in borrowing capacity. An initial borrowing under the multi-currency unsecured revolving credit facility was used to retire a $240.0 million short-term multi-currency revolving credit facility with Rabobank that was due to mature on March 31, 2023. The credit facility consists of a $325.0 million U.S. dollar only tranche and a $925.0 million multi-currency tranche for loans denominated in U.S. Dollars, Euros or other currencies to be agreed upon. The credit facility matures on December 19, 2027. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding for any borrowings denominated in U.S. dollars, at the Company’s option, at either (1) the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus 0.1% plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating, or (2) the base rate, which is the highest of (i) the Prime Rate, (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus .5% , and (iii) Term SOFR for a one-month tenor plus 1.0%, plus a margin ranging from 0.000% to 0.875% based on the Company’s credit rating. Interest accrues on amounts outstanding for any borrowings denominated in Euros at the Euro Interbank Offered Rate (“EURIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.875% based on the Company’s credit rating.

The credit facility contains covenants restricting, among other things, the incurrence of indebtedness and the making of certain payments, including dividends. The Company also has to fulfill financial covenants with respect to a total debt to EBITDA ratio and an interest coverage ratio.

A copy of the Credit Agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
