Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Paylocity Holding Corporation (PCTY) entered into a new $1.75 billion senior secured revolving credit facility through an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement with PNC Bank and a syndicate of lenders, replacing its prior 2019 credit agreement. The facility includes a $175.0 million swingline sublimit and a $175.0 million letter of credit sublimit and matures on September 17, 2031. As of the effective date, $81.25 million was outstanding.

The company may request up to $875.0 million in additional revolving commitments and, on not more than two occasions, request one-year extensions of the maturity date, in each case subject to lender agreement and customary conditions. Borrowings bear interest at Term SOFR or an adjusted base rate plus margins that vary with a net total leverage ratio, and unused commitments incur a quarterly fee. There is no scheduled principal amortization before maturity, and Paylocity can borrow, prepay and reborrow without premium or penalty other than customary breakage costs.

The facility is guaranteed by material subsidiaries and secured by substantially all assets of Paylocity and the guarantors. Key financial covenants include a maximum net total leverage ratio of 4.00:1.00 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of 2.00:1.00. Proceeds may be used for working capital, capital expenditures, general corporate purposes, permitted acquisitions, investments, distributions and share repurchases.

Term SOFR financial
"bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum determined by reference to either Term SOFR"
Term SOFR is a benchmark interest rate that reflects the cost of borrowing money over a specific period, based on actual transactions in the financial markets. It is used by lenders and borrowers to set the interest rates on loans and financial contracts, helping to ensure rates are fair and transparent. For investors, understanding term SOFR helps gauge borrowing costs and the overall direction of interest rates in the economy.
net total leverage ratio financial
"margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.625% and 0.0% to 0.625%, respectively, based on the then-applicable net total leverage ratio"
interest coverage ratio financial
"maintain a maximum net total leverage ratio of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 and a minimum interest coverage ratio"
A measure of how easily a company can pay the interest on its debt, calculated by comparing the earnings it generates from operations to the interest it owes. It matters to investors because a higher ratio means the company can comfortably meet interest payments — like having several paychecks set aside to cover your rent — while a low ratio signals greater risk of missed payments or financial strain.
Permitted Acquisitions financial
"including Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement), permitted investments"

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amended and Restated Revolving Credit Agreement

On September 17, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), Paylocity Holding Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an amended and restated revolving credit agreement (the “A&R Revolving Credit Agreement”) among the Company, the entities from time to time party thereto as guarantors (each, a “Guarantor,” and collectively the “Guarantors,” and together with the Company, collectively, the “Loan Parties”), PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent (“PNC Bank”), and the other lenders party thereto, which replaces the Credit Agreement dated July 17, 2019 (as amended by the First Amendment to Credit Agreement dated August 19, 2022 and the Second Amendment to Credit Agreement dated October 1, 2024) among the Company, the Guarantors, the lenders party thereto and PNC Bank as the administrative agent thereunder. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the same meanings as given in the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement.

The A&R Revolving Credit Agreement provides for a $1.75 billion senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Facility”). The Facility includes a $175.0 million sublimit for swing loans and a $175.0 million sublimit for letters of credit. The Facility matures on September 17, 2031 (the “Expiration Date”). As of the Effective Date, an aggregate of $81.25 million was outstanding under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement.

The A&R Revolving Credit Agreement provides that the Company has the right at any time to request increased revolving commitments in an aggregate amount of up to $875.0 million. The Company also has the right, subject to certain limitations and conditions, on not more than two occasions, to request a one-year extension of the Expiration Date then in effect. The lenders under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement will not be under any obligation to provide any such increased revolving commitments or extensions, and any such addition of or increase in commitments or extensions of the termination date will be subject to certain customary conditions precedent.

Borrowings under the Facility will generally bear interest, at the Company’s option, at a rate per annum determined by reference to either Term SOFR or an adjusted base rate, in each case plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.625% and 0.0% to 0.625%, respectively, based on the then-applicable net total leverage ratio. In addition, the Company is required to pay certain fees, including (i) a quarterly commitment fee at a rate ranging from 0.10% to 0.25% per annum on the daily amount of the undrawn portion of the revolving commitments under the Facility, based on the then-applicable net total leverage ratio, and (ii) a letter of credit fronting fee at a rate of 0.125% per annum on the daily amount available to be drawn under each letter of credit and a letter of credit participation fees at a rate ranging from 1.00% to 1.625% per annum on the daily undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit and unreimbursed disbursements relating to letters of credit, based on the then-applicable net total leverage ratio (described below). The Facility provides for no scheduled principal amortization prior to the Expiration Date. Subject to certain conditions set forth in the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow, prepay and reborrow under the Facility and terminate or reduce the Lenders’ commitments at any time prior to the Expiration Date in each case, without a premium or a penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to Term SOFR revolving loans.

Under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement, the Loan Parties are required to maintain a maximum net total leverage ratio of not greater than 4.00 to 1.00 and a minimum interest coverage ratio of not less than 2.00 to 1.00. Additionally, the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants limiting the ability of the Loan Parties to, among other things, grant liens, incur or guaranty debt, effect certain mergers, make investments, dispose of assets, pay dividends or distributions on their capital stock, make changes in fiscal year or organizational documents, grant negative pledges and enter into transactions with affiliates, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a facility of the size and type of the Facility.

The proceeds of the loans and letters of credit under the Facility are to be used to fund working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes, including Permitted Acquisitions (as defined in the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement), permitted investments, permitted distributions and share repurchases.

The obligations under the Facility are obligations of the Company and are (i) guaranteed by each existing and future direct or indirect material subsidiary of the Company and (ii) secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions.

The events of default under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement include, among others, payment defaults, material misrepresentations, breaches of covenants under any of the loan documents, cross defaults with certain other material indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events, judgment defaults, unenforceability of loan documents, uninsured losses, ERISA events and change of control events. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the Company’s obligations under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement, the requirement to post cash collateral with respect to



letters of credit, the termination of the lenders’ commitments, a 2.0% increase in the rate of interest, and an obligation of the Guarantors to pay the full amount of the Company’s obligations under the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement.

The foregoing description of the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

In the ordinary course of their respective businesses, certain of the lenders to the A&R Revolving Credit Agreement and their respective affiliates have engaged, and may in the future engage, in commercial banking or other services with the Company and its affiliates for which they have in the past received, and/or may in the future receive, customary fees and expenses.
