Item 2.03.                                         Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

On June 28, 2018, BCI IV Operating Partnership LP (the “Borrower”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Black Creek Industrial REIT IV Inc. (the “Company”), amended and increased the amount of its existing $100.0 million revolving credit facility by increasing the aggregate revolving loan commitments to $200.0 million, pursuant to that certain Second Amendment and Incremental Revolving Commitment Assumption Agreement (the “Second Amendment”), with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent and as a lender, Bank of America, N.A., as a lender, U.S. Bank National Association, as a lender, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as a lender, and Regions Bank, N.A., as a lender (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Borrower’s existing revolving credit facility, as previously amended and as amended by the Second Amendment, is collectively referred to herein as the “Amended Credit Facility.” The Amended Credit Facility provides the Borrower with the ability from time to time to increase the size of the aggregate loan commitment under the agreement by an additional $400.0 million up to a total of $600.0 million, subject to receipt of lender commitments and satisfaction of other conditions. Any increase to the size of the Amended Credit Facility may be in the form of an increase in the aggregate revolving loan commitments, the establishment of a term loan, or a combination of both. The maturity date of the Amended Credit Facility continues to be September 18, 2020, and may be extended pursuant to two one-year extension options, subject to the Borrower’s continuing compliance with certain financial covenants, the payment of an extension fee and the satisfaction of other customary conditions.

 

At the Borrower’s election, borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility are charged interest based on LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 1.60% to 2.50% or an alternative base rate plus a margin ranging from 0.60% to 1.50%, each depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Customary fall-back provisions apply if LIBOR is unavailable. The alternative base rate is equal to the greatest of (a) the prime rate announced from time to time by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, (b) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.5%, and (c) LIBOR plus 1.0%. If either of the LIBOR rate or the alternative base rate is less than zero, it will be deemed to be zero for purposes of the Amended Credit Facility.

 

In addition to interest, the Borrower must pay a quarterly unused fee that equals the amount of the revolving loan commitment unused by the Borrower on a given day multiplied by either (i) 0.20% on an annualized basis if more than 50% of the revolving loan commitment is being used or, (ii) 0.25% on an annualized basis if 50% or less of the revolving loan commitment is being used. The Borrower is also required to pay certain participation and other fees in connection with any letters of credit issued under the Amended Credit Facility.

 

Borrowings under the Amended Credit Facility are available for general corporate purposes, i ncluding but not limited to property acquisitions, new construction, renovations, expansions, tenant improvements, working capital, and debt refinancings. As of June 28, 2018, the amount outstanding under the Amended Credit Facility was $78.5 million with an interest rate of 3.69%.

 

Borrowings under the Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and certain of its subsidiaries. In addition, a pledge of equity interests in the Company’s subsidiaries that directly own unencumbered properties shall be provided until such time as the Company elects to terminate such pledges, subject to satisfaction of certain financial covenants, including but not limited to the Company having a “total asset value” (as defined in the Amended Credit Facility) of at least $500.0 million, provided that there is no default.

 

The Amended Credit Facility requires the maintenance of certain financial and borrowing base covenants, including covenants concerning: (i) consolidated tangible net worth; (ii) consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio; (iii) consolidated leverage ratio; (iv) secured indebtedness; (v) secured recourse indebtedness; (vi) unencumbered property pool debt yield; (vii) unencumbered interest coverage ratio; (viii) unencumbered property pool leverage ratio; and (ix) unencumbered property pool criteria.

 

In addition, the Amended Credit Facility contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, which, among other things, require the Borrower to deliver to the Lenders specified quarterly and annual financial information, and limit the Borrower, the Company and/or its subsidiaries, subject to various exceptions and thresholds, from: (i) creating liens (other than certain permitted liens) on the unencumbered asset pool; (ii) merging with other companies or changing ownership interest; (iii) selling all or substantially all of its assets or properties; (iv) permitting certain transfers of a material interest in the Borrower; (v) entering into certain transactions with affiliates, except on an arms-length basis; (vi) making certain types of investments; (vii) if in default under the Amended Credit Facility, paying certain distributions or certain other payments to affiliates; and (viii) incurring indebtedness (subject to certain permitted indebtedness).

 

2



 

The Amended Credit Facility permits voluntary prepayment of principal and accrued interest and contains various customary events of default, which are described therein. As is customary in such financings, if an event of default occurs under the Amended Credit Facility, the Lenders may accelerate the repayment of amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility and exercise other remedies subject, in certain instances, to the expiration of an applicable cure period.

 

The preceding summary does not purport to be a complete summary of the Amended Credit Facility and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amended Credit Facility, which is filed herewith and incorporated by reference herein.

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto and the Agent are parties to the Credit Agreement, dated as of September 18, 2017 (as amended by the First Amendment, dated as of January 19, 2018 (the “ Existing Credit Agreement ”), and as further amended, restated, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “ Credit Agreement ”). Terms used but not defined herein shall have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the Existing Credit Agreement.

 

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested an increase in Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement (such increase in Revolving Commitments, the “ Incremental Revolving Commitments ”), and that the Agent and Lenders enter into this Agreement to amend the Existing Credit Agreement, in each such case,  as more particularly set forth herein and the Agent and Lenders have agreed to do so, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

 

NOW THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

I.             COMMITMENTS .  Each Lender hereby commits, severally, but not jointly, on the terms set forth in this Agreement to make the Incremental Revolving Commitments as set forth on Schedule A available to the Borrower on the Second Amendment Effective Date (defined below) subject to the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3 below. After giving effect to the Incremental Revolving Commitments, the aggregate Revolving Commitments shall be as set forth on Schedule B hereto.  Each Lender (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Existing Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the amendments and exhibits thereto, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement; (ii) agrees that it has and will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in entering into the Existing Credit Agreement and this Agreement, and in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent, as the case may be, by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

 

II.            AMENDMENTS .  Pursuant to Section 9.02 of the Existing Credit Agreement, the parties hereto agree that the Existing Credit Agreement is amended as follows:

 

A.                                     Section 6.11 (b)  of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety, as follows:

 



 

“(b)         Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio .  Commencing on the Effective Date and prior to the first testing date described below in this Section 6.11(b), Borrower shall not permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio to be less than 1.00 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, unless, as of such date of determination, Borrower’s balance sheet as of each relevant quarter end shows that the amount of all Cash and Cash Equivalents plus the maximum amount available to be drawn hereunder is at least five percent (5%) of the average usage of the aggregate Commitments for such quarter.  Borrower shall not permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio to be less than (i) commencing on December 31, 2018 (the first testing date), 1.25 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, (ii) commencing on March 31, 2019, not less than 1.35 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter, and (iii) commencing on March 31, 2020 and thereafter, 1.50 as of the last day of any fiscal quarter. In all cases, the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be determined based on information for the most recent quarter annualized.”

 

B.                                     The Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended to include as a new Section 5.01(h)  the following:

 

“To the extent applicable, upon Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s reasonable request from time to time, Borrower shall promptly deliver to Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, a Beneficial Ownership Certification in relation to the Borrower.   As used in this paragraph, “ Beneficial Ownership Certification ” means a certification regarding beneficial ownership required by the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, which certification shall be substantially similar in form and substance to the form of Certification Regarding Beneficial Owners of Legal Entity Customers published jointly, in May 2018, by the Loan Syndications and Trading Association and Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association and “ Beneficial Ownership Regulation ” means 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230.”

 

III.          REPRESENTATIONS .  The Borrower, on its own behalf and on behalf of the other Loan Parties, makes, on the effective date of this Agreement, the representations and warranties in Article III of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and confirms that such representations and warranties are true and correct in all material respects as of the date hereof, except to the extent any such representation or warranty relates solely to an earlier date, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct on and as of such earlier date, and the representations and warranties contained in Section 3.04 of the Credit Agreement shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to subsections (a) or (b), as applicable, of Section 5.01 of the Existing Credit Agreement.  Additionally, the Borrower represents and warrants that immediately before and after giving effect to this Agreement on the date hereof, no Default or Event of Default exists.

 

IV.          CONDITIONS TO EFFECTIVENESS .  This Agreement will become effective on the first date (the “ Second Amendment Effective Date ”) on which the following conditions are satisfied:

 

A.            The Agent shall have received counterparts of this Agreement executed and delivered by the Borrower, the other Loan Parties, each Lender and the Agent.

 

B.            If so requested by the Additional Lender, the Agent shall have received  a Note made by Borrower and payable to the Additional Lender.

V.            TERMS GENERALLY .  Other than as set forth herein, for all purposes under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Incremental Revolving Commitments and any Loan made using the Incremental Revolving Commitments (such Loans, the “ Incremental Revolving Loans ”) shall have the same terms as the initial Revolving Commitments and initial Revolving Loans, respectively, and shall be treated for all terms and conditions as the same Class of Commitments and Loans, as applicable, as the initial Revolving Commitments and initial Revolving Loans, as applicable.  Upon the occurrence of the Second Amendment Effective Date, the Incremental Revolving Commitments and any Incremental Revolving Loans shall automatically and without further action by any Person constitute, for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, respectively. The Agent shall take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that the Incremental Revolving Commitments and the Incremental Revolving Loans are included in each repayment or commitment reduction, as applicable, of Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, as applicable, on a pro rata basis.  For avoidance of doubt, the Second Amendment Effective Date shall constitute the Increase Effective Date under the Credit Agreement for the purposes of the Incremental Revolving Commitments.

 

VI.          CREDIT AGREEMENT GOVERNS .  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents and for the avoidance of doubt, the obligation of each Lender to make (i) its Incremental Revolving Commitments available, in each case, on the Second Amendment Effective Date shall be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 3 above, and (ii) its portion of Incremental Revolving Loans from time to time thereafter shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement applicable to Revolving Loans.

 

VII.         CONFIRMATION OF GUARANTY AND PLEDGE AGREEMENT . Each Loan Party (a) confirms its obligations under the Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, (b) confirms that its obligations under the Credit Agreement as modified hereby constitute “Obligations” (as defined in the Credit Agreement), (c) confirms its guarantee of the Obligations under the Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, (d) confirms that its obligations under the Credit Agreement as modified hereby are entitled to the benefits of the guarantee set forth in the Guaranty or Subsidiary Guaranty, as applicable, (e) to the extent such Loan Party is a Pledgor, confirms its obligations under the Pledge Agreement and that its obligations in respect of the Credit Agreement as modified hereby are entitled to the benefits of the pledges set forth in the Pledge Agreement and (f) agrees that the Credit Agreement as modified hereby is the Credit Agreement under and for all purposes of the Guaranty, Subsidiary Guaranty and Pledge Agreement, as applicable.  Each Loan Party, by its execution of this Agreement, hereby confirms that the Obligations shall remain in full force and effect.
