Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On June 30, 2021, Vulcan Materials Company (“Vulcan”, “we”, “our” or “us”) entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Truist Bank, as administrative agent (the “Administrative Agent”), and the lenders (the “Lenders”), and other parties named therein. The Credit Agreement provides for a $1.6 billion 3-year delayed draw term loan facility (the “Term Loan Facility”) that will be used to partially fund the previously announced acquisition of U.S. Concrete, Inc. and related fees and expenses.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, covenants and events of default. The primary negative covenant is a limitation on secured debt, and the financial covenant is a maximum debt to EBITDA ratio of 3.50 to 1.00 (with a permitted ratio of 3.75 to 1.00 for four fiscal quarters ending after the consummation of certain material acquisitions).

Borrowings under the Term Loan Facility bear interest, at our option, at either (i) the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus a margin ranging from 0.875% to 1.375% based on our credit ratings or (ii) a base rate (which is equal to the highest of (a) the Administrative Agent’s prime rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%) plus a margin of up to 0.375% based on our credit ratings.

Certain of the Lenders and their affiliates have provided from time to time, and may continue to provide, investment banking, commercial banking, financial and other services to us for which we have paid, and intend to pay, customary fees.

The foregoing description of the Term Loan Facility does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
