ITEM 1.01Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Accounts Receivable Securitization
On March 28, 2024, Trinseo Ireland Global IHB Limited, an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Trinseo PLC (the “Company”) entered into an Deed of Amendment, Restatement and Accession with Styron Receivables Funding Designated Activity Company, Regency Assets Designated Activity Company, HSBC Bank plc, TMF Administration Services Limited and The Law Debenture Trust Corporation P.L.C. and other indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of the Company named therein (the “Deed of Amendment”). The Deed of Amendment amends and restates the terms of the Amended & Restated Master Definitions and Framework Deed, originally dated as of August 12, 2010 (as amended or amended and restated, the “Framework Deed”) as well as other ancillary agreements which provide a facility for the securitization of trade receivables (the “Securitization”) originated by certain of the Company’s Swiss, German, Dutch and U.S. subsidiaries (the “Sellers”). The Securitization is funded through the sale of commercial paper by a special purpose finance entity, the proceeds of which fund the purchase of trade receivables from the Sellers. Collection accounts related to the trade receivables are pledged to the special purpose entity, which holds a first priority perfected security interest in such accounts and are not available to the creditors of the Company or its other subsidiaries.
Pursuant to the Deed of Amendment, the Securitization was amended to (i) increase the number of Sellers to include two additional U.S. subsidiaries of the Company, (ii) extend the final maturity of the Securitization for one (1) year to November 18, 2025, and (iii) permit the Company to terminate the Securitization upon thirty days’ notice. The Framework Agreement contains certain standard representations, warranties and covenants, as well as standard termination or perfection events including those relating to (i) insolvency of the Company or certain of its subsidiaries, (ii) cross acceleration, and (iii) failure to maintain at least $250,000,000 of Liquidity (as defined in the Framework Deed) after May 25, 2025. Pursuant to the Deed of Amendment, the Securitization incurs fixed interest charges of 1.65% on outstanding borrowings plus variable commercial paper or other benchmark rates until November 18, 2024, at which time the fixed interest charges will increase to 3.5%. The Deed of Amendment did not include changes to the fees payable on available but undrawn commitments. The Securitization borrowing limit remains at $150.0 million.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Deed of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete terms and conditions of the Deed of Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
