Penske Automotive Group,Inc. (NYSE:PAG) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 12, 2018, we amended and restated the revolving credit agreement among our subsidiaries in the U.K. (the “U.K. subsidiaries”) and National Westminster Bank plc and BMW Financial Services (GB) Limited (BMW Financial) principally to extend the facility for five years through December 12, 2023 (the “U.K. credit agreement”).

As amended, the U.K. credit agreement provides up to a £150.0 million revolving line of credit and up to an additional £52.0 million of demand overdraft lines of credit to be used for working capital, acquisitions, capital expenditures, investments and general corporate purposes.The revolving loans generally bear interest between defined LIBOR plus 1.10% and defined LIBOR plus 2.10%. In addition, the U.K. credit agreement now includes a £100.0 million “accordion” feature which allows the U.K. subsidiaries to request up to an additional £100.0 million of facility capacity.The lenders may agree to provide the additional capacity, and, if not, the U.K. subsidiaries may add an additional lender, if available, to the facility to provide such additional capacity.

The U.K. credit agreement is fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a joint and several basis by our U.K. subsidiaries, and contains a number of significant covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of our U.K. subsidiaries to pay dividends, dispose of assets, incur additional indebtedness, repay other indebtedness, create liens on assets, make investments or acquisitions and engage in mergers or consolidations.In addition, our U.K. subsidiaries are required to comply with defined ratios and tests, including:a ratio of earnings before interest, taxes, amortization, and rental payments (“EBITAR”) to interest plus rental payments, a measurement of maximum capital expenditures, and a debt to EBITDA ratio.A breach of these requirements would give rise to certain remedies under the U.K. credit agreement, the most severe of which is the termination of the agreement and acceleration of any amounts owed.

The U.K. credit agreement also contains typical events of default, including change of control and non-payment of obligations and cross-defaults to other material indebtedness of our U.K. subsidiaries.Substantially all of our U.K. subsidiaries’ assets are subject to security interests granted to the lenders under the U.K. credit agreement.

We purchase motor vehicles from subsidiaries of BMW Group, the parent company and affiliate of BMW Financial, a lender under the U.K. credit agreement, for sale at certain of our dealerships. BMW Group subsidiaries also provide certain of our dealerships with “floor-plan,” mortgage and consumer financing.Item 9.01 Financial Statements and Exhibits.
