Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On May 17, 2024, Comcast Corporation (“Comcast”) entered into a credit agreement (the “credit agreement”) among Comcast, the financial institutions party thereto (the “lenders”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent, and Bank of America, N.A., Barclays Bank PLC, Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Morgan Stanley MUFG Loan Partners, LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-documentation agents. JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., Barclays Bank PLC, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Morgan Stanley MUFG Loan Partners, LLC and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC acted as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunners. The credit agreement replaced Comcast’s prior five-year $11,000,000,000 credit agreement entered into as of March 30, 2021 (the “prior credit agreement”) among Comcast, the financial institutions party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, Citibank, N.A., as syndication agent, and Bank of America, N.A., Mizuho Bank, Ltd., Morgan Stanley MUFG Loan Partners, LLC and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-documentation agents.

The credit agreement provides for a $11,800,000,000 unsecured revolving credit facility (the “facility”) to Comcast for general corporate purposes that is scheduled to expire on May 17, 2029 and is guaranteed by Comcast Cable Communications, LLC and NBCUniversal Media, LLC (the “guarantors”). Comcast may, upon the agreement of one or more new or existing lenders, increase the commitments under the facility up to a total of $14,800,000,000, and/or extend the expiration date of the facility to a date not later than May 17, 2031. At this time, Comcast has not borrowed any funds under the credit agreement, although certain existing letters of credit have been continued under the credit agreement and reduce the availability thereunder in a corresponding amount. Interest is based on either (i) the base rate formula, (ii) the Floating Rate formula or (iii) the fixed rate specified by the lender, each as described in the credit agreement with respect to the applicable type of borrowing. The credit agreement includes a hardwired approach for the replacement of applicable Floating Rates.

The credit agreement contains customary representations and warranties as well as customary affirmative and negative covenants and events of default. Negative covenants include, among others, limitations on incurrence of certain liens by Comcast and certain of its subsidiaries and limitations on incurrence of certain indebtedness by certain of Comcast’s subsidiaries that are not guarantors, and a requirement that the leverage ratio (as defined in the credit agreement) as of the end of any fiscal quarter is not greater than 5.75 to 1.00. If any of the events of default occur and are not cured within any applicable grace periods or waived, any unpaid amounts under the credit agreement may be declared immediately due and payable and the commitments may be terminated.

Comcast and its affiliates maintain various commercial and service relationships with certain of the lenders and their affiliates in the ordinary course of business. In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, certain of the lenders and the other parties to the credit agreement and their respective affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking, investment banking, financial advisory or other services with Comcast and its affiliates for which they have received in the past, and/or may receive in the future, customary compensation and expense reimbursement.

The description above is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by the credit agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference.
