Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 17, 2018, New Jersey Resources Corporation (“NJR” or the “Borrower”), as borrower, and certain of NJR’s unregulated subsidiaries, as guarantors (the “Guarantors”), entered into the First Amendment to Credit Agreement (the “First Amendment”), which amends the $100,000,000 Credit Agreement, dated as of August 18, 2017 (the “Credit Agreement”) with the lenders party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent for the lenders. For a description of the Credit Agreement, see NJR’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on August 18, 2017.

Pursuant to and subject to the terms of the First Amendment, the Credit Agreement was amended to permit the disposition of assets relating to sale/leaseback or other similar tax equity financing arrangements of meter assets or of solar or wind facilities so long as at the time of the such sale/leaseback or similar arrangement, the Borrower is in compliance with a maximum leverage ratio (consolidated total indebtedness to consolidated total capitalization as defined in the Credit Agreement), of not more than 0.65 to 1.00 at any time both before and after such incurrence and that no event of default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) may be caused by such sale/leaseback or similar arrangement.

The above description of the First Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the entire First Amendment attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference.
