Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On April 17, 2023, Southwest Gas Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Term Loan Credit Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) with the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A. as Syndication Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and U.S. Bank, National Association as Joint Lead Arrangers and Joint Bookrunners, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and U.S. Bank, National Association as Co-Documentation Agents. The Term Loan Agreement provides for a term loan (the “Term Loan”) of $550 million that matures on October 17, 2024. The Company contributed a majority of the proceeds from the Term Loan to Southwest Gas Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Southwest Gas Corporation”), to repay the amounts outstanding under Southwest Gas Corporation’s $450 million 364-day term loan entered into in January 2023 (the “Southwest Gas Corporation Term Loan”), and will use the remainder for working capital and general corporate purposes. On April 17, 2023, Southwest Gas Corporation repaid in full the Southwest Gas Corporation Term Loan.

Interest rates for the Term Loan are calculated, at the Company’s option, at either the term Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) plus an adjustment of 0.100% or the “alternate base rate,” plus in each case an applicable margin. Loans bearing interest with reference to SOFR have an applicable margin of 1.300% and loans bearing interest with reference to the alternate base rate have an applicable margin of 0.300%. SOFR is calculated with a floor of 0.000% and alternative base rate is calculated with a floor of 1.000%.

The Term Loan Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties and affirmative and negative covenants. In addition, the Term Loan Agreement contains a financial covenant requiring the Company to maintain a ratio of funded debt to total capitalization not to exceed 0.70 to 1.00 as of the end of any quarter of any fiscal year. The description of the Term Loan Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Term Loan Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
