Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Credit Agreement

On March 31, 2020, McGrath RentCorp (the “Company”) entered into an amended and restated credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender, L/C Issuer and lender, and other lenders named therein (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility provides for a $420.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility (which may be further increased to $67.0 million by adding one or more tranches of term loans and/or increasing the aggregate revolving commitments), which includes a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swingline loans. The proceeds of the Credit Facility will be available to be used for general corporate purposes, including permitted acquisitions. The Credit Facility permits the Company’s existing indebtedness to remain, which includes the Company’s $12.0 million Treasury Sweep Note due March 31, 2025, the Company’s existing senior notes issued pursuant to the Note Purchase and Private Shelf Agreement with Prudential Investment Management, Inc., dated as of April 21, 2011 (as amended, the “Note Purchase Agreement”): (i) the $40.0 million aggregate outstanding principal of notes issued March 17, 2014 and due March 17, 2021, and (ii) the $60.0 million aggregate outstanding principal of notes issued November 5, 2015 and due November 5, 2022. In addition, the Company may incur additional senior note indebtedness in an aggregate amount not to exceed $250.0 million. The Credit Facility replaces the Company’s prior $420.0 million credit facility dated March 31, 2016 with Bank of America, N.A., as agent, as amended. All obligations outstanding under the prior credit facility as of the date of the Credit Facility were refinanced by the Credit Facility on March 31, 2020.

The Credit Facility contains customary covenants limiting the Company’s ability to, among other things, incur liens, make investments, incur indebtedness, merge or consolidate with others or dispose of assets, change the nature of its business, and enter into transactions with affiliates. In addition, the Credit Facility contains financial covenants requiring the Company: (1) not to permit the Consolidated Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) as of the end of any fiscal quarter to be less than 2.50 to 1.00; (2) not to permit the Tangible Net Worth (as defined in the Credit Facility) as of the end of any fiscal quarter of the Company to be less than the sum of (i) $246,103,400 plus (ii) 25% of the Company’s Consolidated Net Income (as defined in the Credit Facility) (but only if a positive number) for each fiscal quarter ended subsequent to December 31, 2011, plus (iii) 90% of the net cash proceeds from the issuance of the Company’s capital stock after December 31, 2011 (provided that the financial covenant under this clause (2) will cease to apply on the date on which the documents governing the Company’s senior note indebtedness are revised to remove their parallel financial covenant); and (3) not to permit the Consolidated Leverage Ratio (as defined in the Credit Facility) at any time during any period of four consecutive fiscal quarters to be greater than 2.75 to 1.00.

The lenders may, subject to various customary cure rights of the Company, require the immediate payment of all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility if (1) the Company fails to pay the amounts under the Credit Facility when due; (2) the Company or any of the Guarantors (as defined below) fails to comply with its various covenants and agreements related to the Credit Facility; (3) the Company or any of the Guarantors makes incorrect or misleading representations and warranties in the documents relating to the Credit Facility; (4) the Company, any of the

Guarantors (as defined below) or any of the Company’s Material Subsidiaries (as defined in the Credit Facility) fails to pay when due debt obligations in excess of $10.0 million, or such debt obligations may be declared payable earlier than their stated maturity due to breach by the Company, any of the Guarantors or any of the Company’s Material Subsidiaries; (5) the Company or any of its subsidiaries is subject to an insolvency proceeding, makes an assignment of the benefit of creditors, appoints a receiver or takes similar action; (6) the Company or any of its subsidiaries becomes subject to (a) final judgments or orders for payment of money that exceed $10.0 million in the aggregate or (b) non-monetary final judgments that have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect; (7) the Company incurs liability with respect to certain benefit plans which result or could reasonably be expected to result in payments in excess of $10.0 million; (8) the loan documentation related to the Credit Facility ceases to be in full force and effect; or (9) any Change of Control (as defined in the Credit Facility) of the Company occurs.

In connection with the Credit Facility, certain of the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries, Mobile Modular Management Corporation, Enviroplex, Inc. and Adler Tank Rentals, LLC (the “Guarantors”), entered into a guaranty in favor of Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, dated March 31, 2020 (the “Guaranty”), whereby such subsidiaries guarantee the full payment of all the obligations of the Company under the Credit Facility. Each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries shall, upon its becoming a Material Subsidiary, be required to become a party to the Guaranty.

The foregoing descriptions of the Credit Facility and the Guaranty do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those documents, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference. The Credit Facility and the Guaranty have been included to provide information regarding their terms and are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company or the Guarantors. The Credit Facility contains representations and warranties that the Company and the Guarantors have made to the lenders, which are qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules that the Company has provided to the lenders in connection with the Credit Facility. The information in those disclosure schedules modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Credit Facility and, accordingly, the representations and warranties made in the Credit Facility and the Guaranty should not be relied on as characterizations of the actual state of facts at the time they were made or otherwise.

A copy of the Company’s press release announcing the Credit Facility is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Credit Facility Letter Agreement and Credit Line Note

On March 30, 2020, the Company entered into an amended and restated credit facility letter agreement with MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (the “Credit Facility Letter”) and a credit line note in favor of MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (the “Credit Line Note”), which provide for a $12.0 million line of credit facility related to its cash management services (“Sweep Service Facility”). The Sweep Service Facility matures on the earlier of March 31, 2025, and the date that the Company ceases to utilize MUFG Union Bank, N.A. for its cash management services. The Sweep Service Facility replaces the Company’s prior $12.0 million sweep service facility, dated as of March 31, 2016.

As provided in the Credit Line Note for the Sweep Service Facility, in addition to other events of default described therein, an occurrence of an event of default under the Credit Facility also constitutes an event of default under the Sweep Service Facility.

The foregoing description of the Credit Facility Letter and the Credit Line Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of those documents, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.3 and 10.4, respectively, and are incorporated herein by reference.
