Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On May 12, 2011, Fabrinet (“Fabrinet”) and Fabrinet Company Limited, a corporation organized under the laws of Thailand and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fabrinet, entered into a facility agreement (the “Facility Agreement”) with TMB Bank Public Company Limited (the “Bank”). On the same date, the parties also executed a General Terms and Conditions of Facility that qualifies the terms of the Facility Agreement. All references to the Facility Agreement are qualified by reference to the General Terms and Conditions of Facility.

Under the terms of the Facility Agreement, the Bank is providing Fabrinet with the following credit facilities: (1) a term loan facility for up to Thai Baht 960 million (equal to $30 million), (2) a hedging facility for currency swaps with a notional amount of $30 million (the “Hedging Facility”), and (3) a settlement limit of Thai Baht 65 million, subject to certain terms and conditions as set forth therein.

The proceeds from the term loan must be used exclusively to construct Fabrinet’s new building located at Soi Khunpra, Phaholyothin Road, Klongneung, Klongluang Patumthanee in Thailand (which Fabrinet refers to as Pinehurst Building Six). The term loan is scheduled to be drawn dawn according to the following schedule: (1) $2 million on June 15, 2011, (2) $4 million on September 15, 2011, (3) $12 million on December 15, 2011 and (4) $12 million on March 15, 2012. The interest rate on the term loan is 5.28% per annum. Borrowings under the term loan are scheduled to be repaid on a quarterly basis between September 2011 and March 2017.

The Facility Agreement requires Fabrinet to maintain a maximum debt to equity ratio and a minimum interest coverage ratio during the term of the facility. In addition, the Facility Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the ability of Fabrinet and its subsidiaries to, among other things, make any material change to their businesses, grant liens on property, enter into mergers, dispose of assets, reduce their registered capital or repay loans or lend money to affiliates, in each case subject to customary exceptions for a facility of this size and type. The facility also contains a covenant that David Thomas Mitchell, the Chief Executive Officer of Fabrinet, will maintain a specified amount of shareholdings in Fabrinet during the term of the facility.

The facility includes customary events of default that include, among other things, non-payment of principal, interest or fees, inaccuracy of representations and warranties, violation of covenants, cross default to other indebtedness, bankruptcy and insolvency events and the occurrence of a material event that could adversely affect Fabrinet’s business or ability to repay any amounts due to the Bank. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the obligations under the Facility Agreement.

On May 12, 2011, Fabrinet also entered into a Confirmation for Cross Currency Swap Transaction (“Confirmation”) under the Hedging Facility with the Bank, pursuant to which the Bank will make quarterly fixed rate payments to Fabrinet on the notional currency amounts specified on Appendix A to the Confirmation (the “Notional Amounts”) in Thai Bhat at an interest rate of 5.28% while Fabrinet will make quarterly floating rate payments at U.S. LIBOR plus 2.8% per annum to the Bank on the Notional Amounts specified in Appendix A in U.S. dollars. In addition, on the final exchange dates specified in the Confirmation, Fabrinet will on each date pay to the Bank the U.S. dollar amount specified on Appendix A while the Bank will pay to Fabrinet the Thai Bhat amount specified on Appendix A for that date. The Notional Amounts for determining the quarterly payments in U.S. dollars commence at $2 million on June 15, 2011, increase to $30 million by March 15, 2012, and then decline over time to $1.5 million by December 15, 2016. The Confirmation is governed by the provisions of the 2002 ISDA Master Agreement (Multicurrency-Cross Border).


The Bank has provided, and in the future may provide, credit, banking currency and related services to the Company, for which it has received, and in the future may receive, compensation from the Company for these services.

8.

  9.2

Where the Borrower is liable to repay the Bank in foreign currency with respect to the facilities or credit limit, the Borrower shall repay in the foreign currency designated by the Bank and purchased by Thai Baht from the Bank at the selling rate of the relevant foreign currency for Thai Baht prescribed by the Bank on the due date of repayment, or by allowing the Bank to deduct the due amount from the foreign currency account opened with the Bank, or by making repayment in such foreign currency together with the fee prescribed by the Bank.
