INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

 
Item 1.02 - Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement

 
On June 9, 2011, BOK Financial Corporation (“BOKF”) terminated its $100 million First Amended Debenture with George B. Kaiser, Chairman of the Board of Directors, which was previously described in Item 2.03 of the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed December 4,  2009 (the “GBK First Amended Debenture”).  There were no amounts outstanding under the GBK First Amended Debenture and no penalties or costs were paid by BOKF for termination.  The GBK First Amended Debenture is being replaced with the credit facility described in Item 2.03 below.
 
Item 2.03 – Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

On June 9, 2011, BOKF entered into a $100 million senior unsecured 364 day revolving credit facility with Wells Fargo Bank, National Bank, administrative agent, and other commercial banks (the “Credit Agreement”).  The Credit Agreement replaced the GBK First Amended Debenture which was terminated as described in Item 1.02 above.  There are currently no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The amount of interest to be paid on amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement is, at BOKF’s option, either (i) a defined base rate plus 1.25% or (ii) LIBOR plus 1.50% as more fully described in the Credit Agreement attached as exhibit 99 (a) hereto.  A commitment fee equal to 0.20% shall be paid quarterly on the unused portion of the credit commitment.  There are no prepayment penalties.  Any amounts outstanding at the end of the credit facility term shall be converted into a term loan which (except for amounts borrowed for certain acquisitions) shall be payable June 7, 2012.

The Credit Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, as well as affirmative and negative covenants including (without limitation) limits on the Company’s ability to borrow additional funds, make investments and sell assets. These covenants also require BOKF to maintain minimum capital levels.

The Credit Agreement contains customary events of default for credit facilities of this type, including (without limitation): nonpayment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts after a stated grace period; inaccuracy of material representations and warranties; violations of covenants, subject in certain cases to stated cure periods; and certain insolvency, bankruptcies and liquidations. If an event of default occurs and is continuing, BOKF may be required to repay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.
