Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On April 22, 2013, Public Service Company of New Mexico (“PNM”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of PNM Resources, Inc., entered into a $75 million Term Loan Agreement (the “Term Loan Agreement”) among PNM, the lenders identified therein, and Union Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. Funding of the Term Loan Agreement occurred on April 22, 2013, at which time the funds were used to repay $75 million in borrowings made under PNM's $400 million unsecured revolving credit facility, dated as of October 31, 2011 (the “PNM Revolver”). The repayment of borrowings under the PNM Revolver will not result in prepayment penalties.

PNM must pay interest on its borrowing under the Term Loan Agreement from time to time following funding and must repay all amounts on or before the maturity date of October 21, 2014.
    
The Term Loan Agreement includes customary covenants, including requirements to not exceed a maximum consolidated debt-to-consolidated capitalization ratio. The Term Loan Agreement also includes customary events of default. The Term Loan Agreement has a cross default provision and a change of control provision. If an event of default occurs, the administrative agent may, or upon the request and direction of the lenders holding a specified percentage of the loans shall, declare the obligations outstanding under the Term Loan Agreement to be due and payable. Such acceleration will occur automatically in the event of an insolvency or bankruptcy default.

        The description of the Term Loan Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the entire Term Loan Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Union Bank, N.A. performs normal banking (including as a lender under the PNM Revolver) and investment banking and advisory services from time to time for PNM and its affiliates, for which it receives customary fees and expenses.


Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
