Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 2, 2022, Blue Bird Corporation (the “Company”) entered into the Fifth Amendment and Limited Waiver to Credit Agreement (“Fifth Amendment”), by and among the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including Blue Bird Body Company (“Borrower”), and Bank of Montreal, as Administrative Agent and an Issuing Bank, Fifth Third Bank and Truist Bank, each an Issuing Bank, and certain other financial institutions from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”).

The Fifth Amendment amended the Credit Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2016 (“Credit Agreement,” as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of September 13, 2018 (“First Amendment”), Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of May 7, 2020 (“Second Amendment”), Third Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of December 4, 2020 (“Third Amendment”), Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of November 24, 2021 (“Fourth Amendment”), and as further amended by the Fifth Amendment, collectively the “Amended Credit Agreement”).

The Fifth Amendment, among other things, resulted in the Borrower and Administrative Agent jointly electing an early opt-in to change one of the market interest rate indices that Borrower can elect to accrue interest on outstanding borrowings from the U.S. Dollar London Interbank Offering Rate (“LIBOR”), which is being discontinued subsequent to June 30, 2023, to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate as administered by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York (“SOFR”). Such change will become effective at the end of the applicable interest period for any LIBOR borrowings outstanding on the Fifth Amendment effective date.

The Fifth Amendment also provides covenant relief, through December 31, 2022, via a waiver of the $20.0 million trailing twelve-month minimum consolidated EBITDA covenant for the fiscal quarter ending October 1, 2022 and the 2,306 minimum units manufactured covenant for the trailing three-month period ending October 1, 2022. Out of an abundance of caution, the Company requested such covenant relief given the supply chain disruptions that challenged the Company throughout its fiscal year.

Finally, the Fifth Amendment requires the Company to provide a rolling thirteen-week cash flow forecast to the Administrative Agent, on a monthly basis, beginning with the fiscal month ended August 27, 2022 and ending with the fiscal month ending April 1, 2023.

The foregoing description of the Fifth Amendment is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to a copy of the Fifth Amendment, which will be included as an Exhibit to the Company’s fiscal year 2022 Form 10-K that will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in December 2022.
