Item 1.02 | Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement. |
As previously disclosed, on May 19, 2023, Carrier Global Corporation (the “Company”) entered into a senior unsecured delayed draw term loan credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and certain other lenders. The Credit Agreement permitted aggregate borrowings of up to €2.3 billion (the “Delayed Draw Facility”) and was drawn in full by the Company on January 2, 2024, in connection with its financing of the acquisition of the climate solutions business of Viessmann Group GmbH & Co. KG.
On June 3, 2024, the Company repaid the full amount outstanding under the Delayed Draw Facility, and following the repayment, terminated the Credit Agreement in its entirety.
The borrowings under the Delayed Draw Facility were repaid using proceeds from the Company’s previously announced sale of its security business, Global Access Solutions, to Honeywell International Inc., which was completed on June 3, 2024.
Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On June 3, 2024, the Company delivered a Notice of Redemption (the “Redemption Notice”) to holders of the Company’s outstanding 5.800% Notes due 2025 (the “Notes”), providing for the redemption for cash by the Company of all $1.0 billion of the outstanding Notes on June 13, 2024 (the “Redemption Date”). The Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes and (2) (i) the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest discounted to the Redemption Date at the treasury rate plus 15 basis points, less (ii) interest accrued to the Redemption Date, plus, in either case, accrued interest to the Redemption Date.
