Material Agreement Form 8 K

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 17, 2024, NACCO Natural Resources Corporation ("NNRC"), a wholly owned subsidiary of NACCO Industries, Inc., entered into the First Amendment to Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the "First Amendment") among NNRC, as the borrower, certain subsidiaries of NNRC, as guarantors, the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The First Amendment amends NNRC's existing Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of November 12, 2021 (as amended, the "Amended Credit Agreement"), for the purpose of, among other things, increasing the revolving credit commitments thereunder to $200.0 million and extending the maturity thereof to September 16, 2028.
Borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement bear interest at a per annum rate equal to (i) an applicable margin plus, (ii) at the option of NNRC, either Term SOFR or the Base Rate (each as defined in the Amended Credit Agreement). The applicable margin is based on NNRC's consolidated net debt to EBITDA ratio (the "Leverage Ratio") and ranges from 2.50% to 3.00% (or, in the case of Base Rate-based loans, 1.50% to 2.00%). In addition, NNRC is required to pay a commitment fee on the unused commitments under the Amended Credit Agreement, which is based on the Leverage Ratio and ranges from 0.40% to 0.50%.
The Amended Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants, which require, among other things, NNRC to maintain a Leverage Ratio of no greater than 2.75 to 1.00 and a consolidated interest coverage ratio of no less than 4.00 to 1.00. The obligations of NNRC under the Amended Credit Agreement are guaranteed by certain of NNRC's direct and indirect, existing and future domestic subsidiaries, and is secured by certain assets of NNRC and the guarantors, subject to customary exceptions and limitations.
The foregoing summary of the First Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference thereto.
