Item 1.01

Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On April 26, 2018, Universal Health Services, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries amended their existing accounts receivable securitization facility (the “Receivables Facility”) with a group of conduit lenders, liquidity banks, and PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, which provides for borrowings outstanding from time to time by certain of the Company’s subsidiaries in exchange for undivided security interests in their respective accounts receivable.

The parties to the Receivables Facility entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of October 27, 2010, pursuant to which, among other things, (i) the term of the Receivables Facility was extended through April 26, 2021, (ii) the borrowing limit under the Receivables Facility was increased from $440 million to $450 million and (iii) certain outstanding borrowings were repaid in order to rebalance the amount to be loaned by each lender. In addition, the program fee, and certain other fees were adjusted in connection with the Amendment. Substantially all other provisions of the Receivables Facility remain unchanged.

The foregoing summary description of the Amendment and the transactions contemplated thereby is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference as it were fully set forth herein.
