Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amended and Restated Credit Agreement

On March 23, 2022, Cintas Corporation No. 2 (“Cintas No. 2”), a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Cintas Corporation, a Washington corporation (the “Corporation”), entered into a $2,000 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which contains a letter of credit sub-facility of up to $300 million and a swing line sub-facility of up to $150 million pursuant to the terms and conditions of a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among Cintas No. 2, the lenders party thereto and KeyBank National Association, as Administrative Agent. The Credit Agreement provides Cintas No. 2 the ability to request increases in revolving commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility or new term loan facilities of up to $500 million in the aggregate, subject to customary conditions. The Revolving Credit Facility replaces Cintas No. 2’s existing credit facilities entered into on May 24, 2019.

The Revolving Credit Facility matures on March 23, 2027. Each swing loan made through the swing line sub-facility (a “Swing Loan”) has a maturity date of the earlier of (a) 15 days after the date such loan is made and (b) March 2027. The obligations of Cintas No. 2 under the Revolving Credit Facility have been guaranteed by the Corporation and certain of the Corporation’s material domestic subsidiaries (collectively, the “Guarantors”). The interest rate per annum applicable to loans under the Revolving Credit Facility, will be, in the case of a Swing Loan, the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), or, in the case of all other loans made under the Revolving Credit Facility and at Cintas No. 2’s option, equal to either (i) the relevant SOFR rate for the selected interest rate period plus an applicable margin of between 70 basis points and 122.5 basis points (as determined pursuant to the Credit Agreement) or (ii) the Base Rate.

The Credit Agreement contains customary covenants, including covenants that limit the ability of Cintas No. 2, the Corporation and the other Guarantors to, among other things (i) incur or suffer to exist certain liens, (ii) consolidate, merge, or sell substantially all of its assets, (iii) incur or create any restrictions on the ability to make loans, make investments, or transfer property and (iv) engage in transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require the Corporation to maintain (x) a leverage ratio of consolidated indebtedness to consolidated EBITDA of no more than 3.50 to 1.00, (y) an interest coverage ratio of consolidated EBIT to consolidated interest expense of at least 3.00 to 1.00 and (z) an aggregate amount of priority debt not to exceed 15% of consolidated total capitalization of the Corporation. The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an eve
