Second Amendment to Five-Year Competitive Advance and Revolving Credit Agreement among Raytheon Company, Guarantors, and Lenders
Summary
This amendment updates the terms of a five-year revolving credit agreement between Raytheon Company (the borrower), its affiliates as guarantors, and a group of lenders led by JPMorgan Chase Bank and Bank of America. The amendment increases the letter of credit commitment from $300 million to $500 million, updates certain definitions, and clarifies default provisions. It reaffirms the guarantors’ obligations and specifies that the amendment is effective once all parties sign and certain financial conditions are met. Raytheon agrees to cover related administrative costs. All other terms of the original agreement remain in effect.
