Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On July 2, 2026, The Timken Company (the “Company”) entered into a Sixth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with certain subsidiaries of the Company from time to time party thereto, as designated borrowers, Bank of America, N.A. and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Co-Administrative Agents, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Paying Agent for the Non-EEA Agented Borrowers, J.P. Morgan SE, as Paying Agent for the EEA Agented Borrowers, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Bank of America, N.A., as L/C Issuers, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Swing Line Lender, and the other lenders from time to time party thereto (collectively, the “Lenders”). The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Company’s previous revolving credit agreement, dated as of December 5, 2022 (the “Existing Revolving Credit Agreement”), and the proceeds thereof will be used (i) to refinance the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement and (ii) for general corporate purposes, including working capital, capital expenditures, permitted acquisitions, and to repay, redeem or refinance existing or future indebtedness. The Credit Agreement provides for a $1.2 billion unsecured revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility matures on July 2, 2031. The interest rate applicable to the loans under the Credit Agreement is based on grid pricing determined by the Company’s debt rating. In addition, the Company will pay a facility fee based on its debt rating times the aggregate revolving credit commitments of all of the Lenders. The Credit Agreement is not secured by assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations, warranties and covenants, including financial covenants that require the Company to maintain a consolidated net leverage ratio and a consolidated interest coverage ratio in accordance with the limits set forth therein. The Credit Agreement is subject to customary events of default. If any event of default occurs and is continuing, the Lenders may instruct the administrative agents to accelerate amounts due under the Credit Agreement (except for a bankruptcy event of default, in which case such amounts will automatically become due and payable) and exercise other rights and remedies. The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Lenders and the agents (and each of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates) of the Credit Agreement have in the past provided, and may in the future provide, investment banking, cash management, underwriting, lending, commercial banking, trust, leasing services, foreign exchange and other advisory services to, or engage in transactions with, the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates. These parties have received, and may in the future receive, customary compensation from the Company and its subsidiaries or affiliates, for such services.
