| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On December 12, 2012, NetApp, Inc. (“NetApp”) entered into an indenture (the “Base Indenture”) and a first supplemental indenture (the “Supplemental Indenture” and referred to together with the Base Indenture as the “Indenture”) with U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, to establish the terms and form of those certain senior unsecured notes issued by NetApp in the aggregate principal amount of $1.0 billion (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes consist of the following tranches: $750 million aggregate principal amount of 2.00% senior unsecured notes due 2017, and $250 million aggregate principal amount of 3.25% senior unsecured notes due 2022. Interest is payable on the Notes semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing June 15, 2013.
NetApp previously entered into an Underwriting Agreement dated December 5, 2012 in connection with the sale of the Notes, as described further in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed by NetApp with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on December 5, 2012. The Notes were offered and sold under NetApp’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-185217) filed with the SEC on November 30, 2012.
NetApp intends to use the net proceeds of the Notes for general corporate purposes, which may include repayment of certain indebtedness, capital expenditures, possible stock repurchases, working capital and potential acquisitions and strategic transactions. NetApp may also be required to offer to repurchase the Notes upon a change in control and a contemporaneous downgrade of the Notes below an investment grade rating, and it may elect to redeem the Notes in whole or in part at any time, as further specified in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains limited affirmative and negative covenants of NetApp. The negative covenants restrict the ability of NetApp and its subsidiaries to incur debt secured by liens on its principal property or on shares of stock or indebtedness of its subsidiaries that own principal property; to engage in sale and lease-back transactions with respect to any principal property; and to consolidate, merge or sell all or substantially all of its assets.
Events of default under the Indenture include a failure to make payments, non-performance of affirmative and negative covenants, and the occurrence of bankruptcy and insolvency-related events. NetApp’s obligations may be accelerated upon an event of default, in which case the entire principal amount of the Notes would become immediately due and payable.
The foregoing description of certain terms of the Indenture does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Base Indenture and the Supplemental Indenture, which are filed with this report as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 4.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
