TENNECO INC. (NYSE:TEN) Files An 8-K Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
ITEM1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT.
Tenneco Inc. has amended and renewed its North American trade
accounts receivable securitization program. The company extended
the term of both facilities to April30, 2019. The amount of
financing provided by the first priority facility will be
increased to $155million and the amount of financing provided by
the second priority facility, which is subordinated to the first
priority facility, will be decreased to $25million. Both
facilities monetize accounts receivable generated in the U.S. and
Canada that meet certain eligibility requirements, and the second
priority facility also monetizes certain additional receivables
generated in the U.S. and Canada that would otherwise be
ineligible under the first priority facility. The companys
accounts receivable securitization programs, both in North
America and in Europe, provide the company with financing at
costs that are generally favorable to alternative sources of
financing and allow the company to reduce borrowings under its
revolving credit arrangements.
The above summary of the amendments to and renewal of Tennecos
North American trade accounts receivable securitization program
is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the terms of the documents effecting the amendments and renewal,
copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 hereto and
are incorporated by reference herein.
