Item 8.01. Other Events
On May 16, 2008, Unisys Corporation entered into a new three-year, U.S. trade
accounts receivable facility. Under this facility, the company has agreed to
sell, on an ongoing basis, through Unisys Funding Corporation I, a wholly owned
subsidiary, up to $150 million of interests in eligible U.S. trade accounts
receivable. The facility replaces the company's $300 million U.S. trade
accounts receivable facility that was scheduled to terminate on May 28, 2008.
The size of the new facility is consistent with recent utilization of the former
facility, under which $113 million and $140 million of eligible receivables had
been sold at March 31, 2008 and December 31, 2007, respectively. Under the new
facility, receivables are sold at a discount that reflects, among other things,
a yield based on LIBOR. The new facility includes customary representations and
warranties, including no material adverse change in the company's business,
assets, liabilities, operations or financial condition. It also requires the
company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and requires the
maintenance of certain ratios related to the sold receivables. The facility will
be subject to early termination if, as of February 28, 2010, the company's
6.875% Senior Notes due 2010 have not been refinanced or extended to a date
later than May 16, 2011. Other termination events include failure to perform
covenants, materially incorrect representations and warranties, change of
control and default under debt aggregating at least $25 million.
