Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
 
On March 15, 2023, Insteel Industries, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Insteel Wire Products Company (“IWP”), entered into the First Amendment (the “First Amendment”) to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, among IWP, as borrower, the Company, as credit party and guarantor, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“WF”), as agent and lender. The First Amendment extends the maturity date of the Company’s $100.0 million revolving credit facility formerly provided by that certain Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 15, 2019, from May 15, 2024 to March 15, 2028 and replaces the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) with the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”) as the benchmark interest rate available for borrowings. In addition, SOFR-based loans will incur a 0.10% credit adjustment spread due to the conversion from LIBOR to SOFR.
 
Upon the First Amendment effective date, Intercontinental Metals Corporation, a North Carolina corporation (“IMC”), ceased to be a Guarantor under or in connection with the Loan Documents, and Agent and the Lenders unconditionally and irrevocably released IMC from any Loan Document to which IMC is a party together with any of its obligations or indebtedness thereunder. Such release was based upon IMC constituting an Immaterial Subsidiary as of the First Amendment Effective Date. If IMC ever ceases to be an Immaterial Subsidiary, the Loan Parties shall cause IMC to be joined to the Guaranty and Security Agreement as a Guarantor by executing such documents and taking such actions as may be required by Agent in connection therewith.
 
The above description of the First Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
 
As of March 15, 2023, there were no borrowings outstanding on the revolving credit facility and the applicable interest rate margins were 0.25% for base rate loans and 1.25% for SOFR-based loans.
 
Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
