Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On June 24, 2016, E*TRADE Clearing LLC (“ETC”), an indirect subsidiary
of E*TRADE Financial Corporation, entered into a 364-day, $400 million
Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility (the “Credit Facility”) with
a syndicate of banks, and with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
administrative agent. The Credit Facility will be used by ETC for
short-term operational needs, including, among other things, funding
clearing agency margin deposits. As of June 24, 2016, no amounts were
outstanding under the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility replaces the
364-day Senior Unsecured Revolving Credit Facility entered into by and
among ETC, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the
other parties thereto on June 26, 2015, which expired in accordance with
its terms.
The obligations under the Credit Facility are unsecured. The revolving
loans under the Credit Facility will accrue interest at rates equal to,
at the election of ETC, either the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the
Credit Facility) or the Eurodollar Rate, plus a fixed margin of 1.75%.
ETC will pay a commitment fee of 0.375% on the average daily unused
portion of the Credit Facility. ETC may request increases in the
aggregate amount of commitments under the Credit Facility in an
aggregate amount not to exceed $200 million. The Credit Facility
contains customary covenants for credit facilities of this nature,
including financial maintenance covenants relating to ETC’s minimum
consolidated tangible net worth and regulatory net capital ratio.
