Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 10, 2021, SEACOR Marine Holdings Inc. (“SEACOR Marine”), Falcon Global USA LLC (“FGUSA”), an indirect subsidiary of SEACOR Marine, and certain subsidiaries of FGUSA, entered into a Second Amendment and Conditional Payoff Agreement (the “Conditional Payoff Agreement”) in respect of that certain (i) term and revolving loan facility, dated as of February 8, 2018, administered by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (as amended, the “Credit Facility”) and (ii) obligation guaranty issued by SEACOR Marine, dated February 8, 2018, pursuant to which SEACOR Marine provides a guarantee of certain limited obligations of FGUSA under the Credit Facility (as amended, the “Obligation Guaranty”). As of June 10, 2021, there was $117.3 million of principal outstanding under the Credit Facility.

Under the terms of the Conditional Payoff Agreement, the $117.3 million of principal currently outstanding will be deemed satisfied in full upon the payment to the lenders of a total of $50 million comprised of (i) $25.0 million to be paid at the signing of the Conditional Payoff Agreement, and (ii) $25.0 million to be paid on or before December 15, 2021. Hull and machinery insurance proceeds received by the lenders in respect of the SEACOR Power incident will be set off against and satisfy the requirement to make the second $25.0 million payment. The Conditional Payoff Agreement also forgives the interest on the second $25.0 million payment if such amount is paid prior to June 30, 2021, suspends the requirement to comply with certain financial covenants, and releases SEACOR Marine from its obligations pursuant to the Obligation Guaranty. Upon final payment, the Credit Facility will terminate and the mortgages and security arrangements will be released with respect to the nine liftboats securing the obligations under the Credit Facility. SEACOR Marine has provided a limited guaranty with respect to the obligations of FGUSA under the Conditional Payoff Agreement (the “Payoff Amount Guarantee”).

The foregoing description of the Conditional Payoff Agreement and the Payoff Amount Guarantee does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Conditional Payoff Agreement and the Payoff Amount Guarantee, a copy of each of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and Exhibit 10.2 hereto, respectively, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The information included in Item 1.01 with respect to the Credit Facility, Conditional Payoff Agreement and Payoff Amount Guarantee is incorporated into this Item 2.03 by reference.
