INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 23, 2005, ENSCO International Incorporated (the Company) amended and restated its existing $250 million Credit Agreement with a syndicate of lenders. The amended and restated agreement (the 2005 Credit Facility or Amended and Restated Credit Agreement) provides for a $350 million unsecured revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes. In consideration of the Company issuing a guaranty (the Guaranty) in favor of the Administrative Agent, the Companys wholly-owned subsidiary, ENSCO Offshore International Company (EOIC), was also added as a Borrower, with a sublimit of $200 million for borrowings and letters of credit. The 2005 Credit Facility has a five-year term, expiring June 23, 2010, and replaces the Companys $250 million five-year Credit Agreement that was scheduled to mature on July 26, 2007. Advances under the 2005 Credit Facility bear interest at the Administrative Agents base rate or at the LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin rate depending on the Companys credit rating. The Company pays an undrawn facility fee on the total $350 million commitment, which is also based on the Companys credit rating, and pays an additional utilization fee on outstanding advances if such advances exceed 50% of the total $350 million commitment. The Company is required to maintain certain financial covenants, including a specified level of interest coverage, and debt to total capitalization ratio. The Company also has the right to increase the commitments under the 2005 Credit Facility to an aggregate amount of up to $500 million. A copy of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and a copy of the Guaranty are attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
