Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement





Credit Agreement Amendment


On December 10, 2020, Uniti Group LP, Uniti Group Finance 2019 Inc. and CSL Capital, LLC (together, the "Borrowers"), each a subsidiary of Uniti Group Inc. (the "Company"), entered into Amendment No. 7 (the "Amendment") to that certain credit agreement, dated as of April 24, 2015 (as amended from time to time prior to the date hereof, the "Credit Agreement") among the Borrowers, the guarantors party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, collateral agent, swing line lender and an L/C issuer and certain other lenders named therein.

Pursuant to the Amendment, commitments from new and existing lenders under the Credit Agreement's revolving credit facility (the "Revolving Credit Facility") have increased to $500 million and, subject to certain conditions, the maturity date of such commitments has been extended to December 10, 2024. As amended, the Revolving Credit Facility provides that (i) upon receipt of routine regulatory approvals, new and extended commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 375 to 450 basis points, with 0% LIBOR floor, depending on the Company's secured leverage ratio, and (ii) certain limitations that were included in previous amendments to our credit agreement have been modified or removed, including restrictions relating to debt incurrence, restricted payments, and permitted investments.

The Revolving Credit Facility will be subject to an earlier maturity date of 91 days prior to the maturity of any outstanding debt with a principal amount of at least $200 million, unless the Company's unrestricted cash balance plus remaining revolving credit facility commitments exceeds the principal amount of such debt at all times following such 91st day until the maturity of such indebtedness. Certain non-extending lender commitments of approximately $60 million will mature on April 24, 2022 and will continue to bear interest at rates previously in effect. Prior to the expiration of these commitments, the aggregate size of the Revolving Credit Facility will be $560 million from all lenders.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
