On December 22, 2014, PNM Resources, Inc. (“PNMR”) entered into a $100 million Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement (the “PNMR Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement”) among PNMR, the lenders identified therein and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The PNMR Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement amends and restates the $100 million Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement, entered into on December 27, 2013 (“PNMR Term Loan Agreement”), among PNMR and the lender parties (JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and MUFG Union Bank, N.A.), and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. A copy of the PNMR Term Loan Agreement, which had a maturity date of December 26, 2014, was filed by PNMR as an exhibit to its Form 8-K on December 27, 2013. The PNMR Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement is effective as of December 22, 2014, and has a maturity date of December 21, 2015.
PNMR must pay interest on its borrowing under the PNMR Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement from time to time following funding and must repay all amounts on or before the maturity date.

If an event of default occurs, the Administrative Agent thereunder may, or upon the request and direction of the lenders holding a specified percentage of the loans shall, declare the obligations outstanding under the PNMR Second Amended and Restated Term Loan Agreement to be due and payable.
