Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Agreement.
On December 27, 2022, Weber-Stephen Products LLC,
a Delaware limited liability company (“Weber-Stephen”), a subsidiary of Weber Inc., a Delaware corporation, entered
into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Credit Agreement dated as of October 30, 2020 (as previously amended
and as further amended pursuant to the Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”) by and among Weber-Stephen, as borrower,
Weber-Stephen Products Belgium BV, as euro borrower, the lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A. as an issuing bank, as swingline
lender and as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”).
Pursuant to the Amendment, the maximum net first
lien leverage ratio covenant of 7.00:1.00 (the “Financial Covenant”) is waived for the fiscal quarters ending December
31, 2022, and March 31, 2023, in each case, on the terms set forth below (the “Waiver”).
The Waiver shall be automatically terminated upon
the occurrence of any Covenant Waiver Termination Event (as defined in the Credit Agreement to include, among other events, if the Take-Private
Transaction (as defined in the Credit Agreement) does not occur within a certain period). If the Waiver is terminated, Weber-Stephen must
test the Financial Covenant for the most recently ended fiscal quarter (the “Testing Quarter”) for which financial
statements have been delivered to the Administrative Agent, subject to its right to exercise an equity cure as set forth in the Credit
Agreement.
If the Waiver is terminated and Weber-Stephen
is not in compliance with the Financial Covenant for the Testing Quarter, in addition to other rights and remedies of the Revolving Facility
Lenders (as defined in the Credit Agreement) provided for under the Credit Agreement, Weber-Stephen must pay the Revolving Facility Lenders
a fee (the “Contingent Fee”) in an amount equal to 3.0% per annum in respect of any outstanding loans under the Revolving
Facility (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Contingent Fee will continue to be payable until Weber-Stephen is in compliance with
the Financial Covenant for any two consecutive fiscal quarter period ending on or after September 30, 2023, at which time the Contingent
Fee will terminate permanently.
From and after the earlier of (a) April 30, 2023
and (b) the date on which the Specified Equity Contribution (as defined in the Credit Agreement) is made, Weber-Stephen may not incur
any further borrowings under the Revolving Facility if after giving effect to any such borrowing, the obligations outstanding under the
Revolving Facility would exceed (x) $250 million or (y) if a Shareholder Loan Agreement Cure (as defined in the Credit Agreement)
has occurred, $200 million (the “Revolver Draw Limitation”). The Revolver Draw Limitation shall terminate upon the
earlier of (x) one year following the consummation of the Take-Private Transaction and (y) the date on which Weber-Stephen demonstrates
compliance with the Financial Covenant for any fiscal quarter ending on or after June 30, 2023.
Each lender under the Revolving Facility that
consents to the Amendment will receive an amendment fee in an amount equal to 0.25% of the Revolving Facility Commitments (as defined
in the Credit Agreement) held by such lender as of the date of the Amendment.
The foregoing description of the Amendment is a summary and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation
or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
The information set forth in Item 1.01 above is
incorporated herein by reference.
