INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On August 12, Advance Auto Parts, Inc. entered into a new five year senior secured first lien asset based revolving credit facility (the “ABL Facility”) with Bank of America, N.A. as Administrative Agent and lead arranger and the several other lead arrangers and lenders party thereto. The ABL Facility provides for extensions of credit of up to $1.0 billion, subject to a borrowing base thereunder. The ABL Facility has a first lien on substantially all the accounts receivable, inventory, certain deposit accounts and certain related assets of the borrower and guarantors thereunder. Advance Auto Parts, Inc. is the ABL Facility borrower and the guarantors are (i) each of our subsidiaries that guarantee our recently issued senior notes and (ii) certain of our Canadian subsidiaries.

The ABL Facility contains customary covenants limiting indebtedness, liens and restricted payments and customary events of default, including non-payment defaults, covenant defaults and cross-defaults of our other material indebtedness. The ABL Facility also has a customary 1:1 “springing” fixed charge coverage ratio covenant. Our ability to borrow and obtain letters of credit under the ABL Facility is limited to the lesser of (i) the borrowing base, equal to the sum of 90% of eligible credit card receivables, 85% of eligible trade accounts receivable, 85% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory and 100% of qualified cash (up to certain limits for the purpose of determining borrowing capacity), subject, in each case, to customary reserves established by the collateral agent under the ABL Facility from time to time, including supply chain financing reserves and debt maturity reserves, and (ii) the aggregate revolving credit commitments. A portion of the net proceeds from our recent senior notes offering, together with cash on hand, was designated as qualified cash to the initial borrowing base for the ABL Facility and will be held in deposit accounts subject to customary “springing” control agreements. In addition, the ABL Facility includes a customary qualified cash dominion trigger based on, among other things, excess availability. Interest on the loans under the ABL Facility will be calculated by reference to SOFR or an alternate base rate plus an interest rate margin of between 1.75% and 1.25% per annum (for SOFR loans) or between 0.75% and 0.25% per annum (for alternate base rate loans) based on average daily excess availability. Unused commitments under the ABL Facility will accrue an unused commitment fee of either 0.30% or 0.25% per annum, depending on average utilization.

The foregoing descriptions are summaries of the material terms of these agreements and are not complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the complete text of these agreements which are filed with thi
