Item 2.03 - Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation Under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On November 10, 2022, IDEX Corporation (the "Company") drew down approximately $200 million from its term credit facility and on November 10, 2022 and November 15, 2022, the Company made additional draws in an aggregate amount of approximately $168 million from its revolving credit facility, in each case, pursuant to the terms of the Company's Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated November 1, 2022, by and between the Company, along with certain of its subsidiaries, as borrowers, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, swing line lender and an issuer of letters of credit; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., PNC Bank, National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as co-syndication agents and issuers of letters of credit; HSBC Bank USA, National Association, Mizuho Bank, Ltd. and Bank of China, Chicago Branch, as co-documentation agents, and the other lenders and financial institutions party thereto (the "Credit Agreement").
As previously disclosed, the proceeds from the borrowings will be used to finance a portion of the consideration for the Company's previously announced acquisition of Muon B.V., a private limited liability company in the Netherlands, and its subsidiaries.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement have a final maturity date of November 1, 2027 and bear interest, at either an alternate base rate or Term SOFR rate (or appropriate alternative currency reference rates) plus, in each case, an applicable margin. Such applicable margin is based on the better of the Company's senior, unsecured, long-term debt rating or the Company's applicable leverage ratio. Interest is payable (a) in the case of base rate loans, quarterly, and (b) in the case of Term SOFR rate loans, on the last day of the applicable interest period selected, or every three months from the effective date of such interest period for interest periods exceeding three months.
A copy of the Credit Agreement was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 2, 2022.
