Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Triumph Group, Inc. (the "Company"), substantially all of its domestic subsidiaries, as co-borrowers and guarantors (collectively, the “Subsidiary Co-Borrowers”), the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”) are party to that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated November 19, 2013 (as amended, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which the lenders (i) made a $375 million term loan to the Company and the Subsidiary Co-Borrowers on the closing date and (ii) provided a $1 billion revolving line of credit under which the Company and its Subsidiary Co-Borrowers may borrow revolving credit loans and multicurrency swing loans (subject to certain sublimits) and cause to be issued letters of credit (subject to certain sublimits), in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $1 billion outstanding at any time. Under the Existing Credit Agreement, the expiration date for the revolving line of credit was November 19, 2018 and the maturity date of the term loan was May 14, 2019.
On May 3, 2016, the Company entered into a Sixth Amendment to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among the Company, the Subsidiary Co-Borrowers, the lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent (the “Sixth Amendment” and the Existing Credit Agreement, as amended by the Sixth Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”), pursuant to which those lenders electing to enter into the Sixth Amendment extended the expiration date for the revolving line of credit and the maturity date for the term loan by five years to May 3, 2021. Lenders holding revolving credit commitments aggregating $940 million elected to extend the expiration date for the revolving line of credit, and Lenders holding approximately $324.5 million of term loans (out of an aggregate outstanding term loan balance of approximately $330.5 million) elected to extend the term loan maturity date.
In addition, the Sixth Amendment amended the Existing Credit Agreement to, among other things,(i) modify certain financial covenants to allow for the add-back of certain cash and non-cash charges, (ii) amend the total leverage ratio financial covenant to provide for a gradual reduction in the maximum permitted total leverage ratio commencing with the fiscal year ending March 31, 2018, (iii) increase the interest rate, commitment fee and letter of credit fee pricing provisions for the highest pricing tier, (iv) establish the interest rate, commitment fee and letter of credit fee pricing at the highest pricing tier until the Company delivers its compliance certificate for its fiscal year ending March 31, 2017, (v) increase the minimum revolver availability threshold test in connection with the Company making certain permitted investments, certain additional permitted dividends, permitted acquisitions and permitted payments of certain types of indebtedness, and (vi) decrease the maximum senior secured leverage ratio threshold test in connection with the Company making certain permitted investments, certain permitted dividends, permitted acquisitions and permitted payments of certain types of indebtedness during the period from the date of the Sixth Amendment until the Company delivers its compliance certificate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2017.
The obligations under the Credit Agreement and related documents continue to be secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries pursuant to a Second Amended and Restated Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, dated as of November 19, 2013, among the Company, the domestic subsidiaries of the Company party thereto and the Administrative Agent, and certain other collateral documents.

| |
• | For the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2016, The Boeing Company (commercial, military and space) accounted for 39.0% of net sales and Gulfstream accounted for 10.6% of net sales. |
| |

• | To ensure that the Company has full access to its Revolving Credit Facility(the"Credit Facility") during fiscal 2017, the Company expects to approach the holders of the 4.875% Senior Notes due 2021 to amend the terms of the indenture to conform with the 5.25% Senior Notes due 2022 which allows for a higher level of secured debt. Absent this consent, the Company could be restricted as to the level of new borrowings under the Credit Facility during fiscal 2017. To mitigate the risk of failing to obtaining the consent and to ensure the Company has adequate liquidity available through fiscal 2017, the Company choose to make a significant draw on the Credit Facility in early April 2016, taking the drawn balance to $800.0 million. The Company will pay down the Credit Facility once the consent is received from the holders of the 4.875% Senior Notes due 2021. |
| |
• | The amount of the goodwill impairment has been done on a preliminary basis as the Company is still waiting on final information on the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities of the Aerostructures reporting unit in order to finalize the calculation which will be completed when the Company files in Form 10-K |
The information in this Item 2.02 of this Report on Form 8-K and Exhibit 99.1 attached hereto shall not be deemed "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
