(collectively, the “Facilities”). The Facilities are unsecured and consist of a five-year $10 billion facility (the “5-year Facility”), a three-year, $4.1 billion facility (the “3-Year Facility”) and a 364-day, $2.0 billion facility (the “364-Day Facility”). The 5-Year Facility matures on March 31, 2028, the 3-Year Facility matures on March 31, 2026, and the 364-Day Facility matures on March 30, 2024. The Facilities are available to GM as well as certain of its wholly owned subsidiaries. However, GM has allocated the 364-Day Facility for exclusive use by General Motors Financial Company, Inc. The 5-Year Facility and 3-Year Facility allow for borrowing in U.S. Dollars and other currencies. The 364-Day Facility allows for borrowing in U.S. Dollars only. GM has guaranteed the obligations of subsidiary borrowers under the Facilities. Unlike GM’s prior revolving credit facilities, GM’s subsidiaries are no longer required to guarantee the obligations under the Facilities if GM fails to maintain an investment grade corporate rating from two credit rating agencies. Interest rates on obligations under the Facilities are based on prevailing annual interest rates for Term SOFR loans, Daily Simple SOFR loans or an alternative base rate, each subject to an applicable margin. This applicable margin will be based upon the credit rating assigned to the Facilities or to senior, unsecured long-term indebtedness of GM. The Facilities contain representations, warranties and covenants that are typical for these types of facilities. These covenants include restrictions on mergers or sales of assets, limitations on the incurrence of indebtedness and requirements for subsidiaries to guarantee the obligations, in each case subject to conditions, exceptions and limitations. The Facilities also require that GM maintain at least $4.0 billion in global liquidity and at least $2.0 billion in U.S. liquidity. Some of the lenders under the Facilities, and their affiliates, have various relationships with GM and its subsidiaries involving the provision of financial services, including cash management, investment banking, trust and leasing services, and foreign exchange and other derivative arrangements. The foregoing description does not constitute a complete summary of the Facilities and is qualified by reference in its entirety to the full text of the Facilities filed herewith.
