Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On December 22, 2008, McAfee, Inc. (the Company) entered into a Credit Agreement among the
Company, McAfee Ireland Holdings Limited (McAfee Ireland), the subsidiaries of the Company party
thereto as guarantors, the lenders from time to time party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as
Administrative Agent and L/C Issuer (the Credit Agreement). The Credit Agreement provides for a
$100.0 million unsecured term loan to the Company, and a $100.0 million unsecured revolving credit
facility, with a $25.0 million letter of credit sublimit, under which either the Company or McAfee
Ireland may borrow. The term loan is available for draw from January 5, 2009 through January 9,
2009. The Credit Agreement also contains an expansion option permitting the Company to arrange
with existing lenders and/or new lenders for them to provide up to an aggregate of $200.0 million
in additional commitments. The facility was undrawn at closing. The
Company intends to draw the full amount of the term loan during the
availability period. Initial borrowing under the
Credit Agreement by McAfee Ireland is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions precedent.
The principal of, together with accrued interest on, the term loan is due on December 22,
2009. The revolving credit facility terminates on December 22, 2011, on which date all outstanding
principal of, together with accrued interest on, any revolving loans will be due. The Company may
prepay the loans and terminate the commitments at any time, without premium or penalty, subject to
reimbursement of certain costs in the case of eurocurrency loans.
Loans may be made in U.S. dollars, euros or other currencies agreed to by the lenders. Loans
will bear interest at the election of the Company at the prime rate or at an adjusted LIBOR rate
plus a margin (ranging from 2.00% to 2.50%) that varies with the Companys consolidated leverage
ratio (a eurocurrency loan). Interest on the loans is payable quarterly in arrears with respect
to prime rate loans and at the end of an interest period (or at each three month interval in the
case of loans with interest periods greater than three months) in the case of eurocurrency loans.
The credit facility contains financial covenants, measured at the end of each of the Companys
fiscal quarters, providing that the Companys consolidated
leverage ratio (as defined in the Credit Agreement) cannot exceed 2.0 to 1.0
and its consolidated interest coverage ratio (as defined in the
Credit Agreement) cannot be less than 3.0 to 1.0.
Additionally, the credit facility contains affirmative covenants, including covenants
regarding the payment of taxes, maintenance of insurance, reporting requirements and compliance
with applicable laws. The credit facility contains negative covenants, among other things,
limiting the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur debt, liens, make
acquisitions, make certain restricted payments and sell assets. The events of default under the
credit facility include payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches
of covenants, judgment defaults, bankruptcy events and the occurrence of a change in control (as
defined in the Credit Agreement).
