01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On September 25, 2025, Applied Materials, Inc. ("Applied") entered into a credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") for a 364-day $2.0 billion revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Administrative Agent"), and the lenders party thereto (collectively, the "Lenders"). The Credit Agreement provides for unsecured borrowings in an initial amount not to exceed $2.0 billion outstanding at any one time. The Credit Agreement includes a provision under which Applied may increase the total amount of the revolving credit facility to no more than $3.0 billion, subject to the receipt of commitments from one or more Lenders for any such increase and other customary conditions. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement will bear interest, at Applied's option, at a rate per annum equal to either (1) the secured overnight financing rate ("Term SOFR") for the selected interest period, plus the applicable margin, which will range from 0.50% to 1.00% depending on Applied's public debt credit ratings, or (2) a rate equal to the highest of (a) a rate that is 0.50% higher than the federal funds effective rate (as the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shall set forth on its public website), (b) the rate publicly announced by the Administrative Agent as its prime rate, (c) Term SOFR for a one-month interest period plus 1.0%, and (d) 1.0%. In addition, the Credit Agreement requires Applied to pay commitment fees on the unused commitments under the Credit Agreement ranging, depending on Applied's public debt credit ratings, from 0.04% to 0.10% per annum and customary agency fees. The Credit Agreement contains certain affirmative and negative covenants customary for credit facilities of this type. The Credit Agreement also contains a financial covenant that requires Applied to maintain as of the last day of each fiscal quarter a ratio of (i) consolidated adjusted EBITDA for the four fiscal quarter
