Item 1.01.    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On March 20, 2017, SPX Corporation (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an amendment (the “First Amendment”) to the Company’s existing Credit Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2015 (the “Existing Credit Agreement” and, as amended by the First Amendment, the “Credit Agreement”; capitalized terms used herein and not defined herein having the meanings given to such terms in the Credit Agreement), by and among the Company, the foreign subsidiary borrowers party thereto, the lenders party thereto, Deutsche Bank AG Deutschlandgeschäft Branch, as foreign trade facility agent, and Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent. The First Amendment amended the Existing Credit Agreement to, among other things:

extend the period during which the Company may reinvest the net proceeds from the disposition of its dry cooling business (which disposition was completed on March 30, 2016), without requiring such net proceeds to be used to prepay loans under the Credit Agreement, from 360 days from the date of the disposition (or if a commitment to reinvest such net proceeds is made within such 360 day period, within 180 days after the conclusion of such 360 day period) to 720 days from the date of the disposition (or if a commitment to reinvest such net proceeds has been made within such 720 day period, within 180 days after the conclusion of such 720 day period); and

reduce the size of Material Acquisitions and Material Dispositions for which pro forma effect is to be given in calculating Consolidated EBITDA (which size is determined with respect to consideration paid or gross proceeds received, respectively) from $25,000,000 to $5,000,000 and to include the disposition of the Balcke Dürr businesses as a Material Disposition), in each case for purposes of determining the Consolidated Leverage Ratio or Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio under the Credit Agreement.

The foregoing is a summary of the First Amendment and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the First Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
