Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Senior Secured Term Loan Credit Facility

On June 10, 2015, HCA Inc. (“HCA”), a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of HCA Holdings, Inc., entered into a joinder agreement (the “Joinder Agreement”) to replace each of its existing senior secured term A-2 loan credit facility maturing on May 2, 2016 (the “Tranche A-2 Term Loan Facility”) and senior secured term A-4 loan credit facility maturing on February 2, 2016 (the “Tranche A-4 Term Loan Facility”) with a new $1.40 billion senior secured term A-5 loan credit facility maturing on June 10, 2020 (the “Tranche A-5 Term Loan Facility”) on substantially the same terms as each of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan Facility and Tranche A-4 Term Loan Facility, other than to lower pricing, such that borrowings under the Tranche A-5 Term Loan Facility will bear interest at a variable rate based on the ratio of consolidated total debt to consolidated EBITDA of HCA, which rate is currently at LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 1.50% or a base rate plus an applicable margin of 0.50%.

The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Joinder Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
