Credit Facilities
 
Current Credit Facilities
 
On March 31, 2011, the Company entered into a senior secured credit facility (the “2011 Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks, and simultaneously borrowed $386.0 million to retire all outstanding obligations under the Company’s previous amended and restated credit agreement and to fund our obligation with respect to a capital call initiated by TV One. The total amount available under the 2011 Credit Agreement is $411.0 million, consisting of a $386.0 million term loan facility that matures on March 31, 2016 and a $25.0 million revolving loan facility that matures on March 31, 2015. Borrowings under the credit facilities are subject to compliance with certain covenants including, but not limited to, certain financial covenants. Proceeds from the credit facilities can be used for working capital, capital expenditures made in the ordinary course of business, its common stock repurchase program, permitted direct and indirect investments and other lawful corporate purposes. On December 19, 2012, the Company entered into an amendment to the 2011 Credit Agreement (the “December 2012 Amendment”). The December 2012 Amendment: (i) modifies financial covenant levels with respect to the Company's total-leverage, secured-leverage, and interest-coverage ratios; (ii) increases the amount of cash the Company can net for determination of its net indebtedness tests; and (iii) extends the time for certain of the 2011 Credit Agreement's call premium while reducing the time for its later and lower premium.
  
Considering the December 2012 Amendment, the 2011 Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants that the Company is required to comply with, including:
 
(a) maintaining an interest coverage ratio of no less than:
§
1.10 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§
1.20 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2014;
§
1.25 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015; and
§
1.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015 and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.
 
(b) maintaining a senior secured leverage ratio of no greater than:
§
4.50 to 1.00 on September 30, 2012 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§
4.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through June 30, 2014;
§
4.00 to 1.00 on September 30, 2014;
§
3.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§
3.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015;
§
2.75 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015 and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.
 
(c) maintaining a total leverage ratio of no greater than:
§
8.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2012 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through December 31, 2013;
§
8.25 to 1.00 on March 31, 2014 and June 30, 2014;
§
8.00 to 1.00 on September 30, 2014;
§
7.50 to 1.00 on December 31, 2014;
§
6.50 to 1.00 on March 31, 2015 and the last day of each fiscal quarter through September 30, 2015;
§
6.00 to 1.00 on December 31, 2015 and the last day of each fiscal quarter thereafter.
 
(d) limitations on:
§
liens;
§
sale of assets;
§
payment of dividends; and
§
mergers.

As of December 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement.
  
Under the terms of the 2011 Credit Agreement, interest on base rate loans is payable quarterly and interest on LIBOR loans is payable monthly or quarterly. The base rate is equal to the greater of: (i) the prime rate; (ii) the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50%; or (iii) the LIBOR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%. The applicable margin on the 2011 Credit Agreement is between (i) 4.50% and 5.50% on the revolving portion of the facility and (ii) 5.00% (with a base rate floor of 2.5% per annum) and 6.00% (with a LIBOR floor of 1.5% per annum) on the term portion of the facility. The average interest rate was 7.50% for 2012. Commencing on June 30, 2011, quarterly installments of 0.25%, or $960,000, of the principal balance on the term loan are payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December.
  
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $24.0 million of borrowing capacity under its revolving credit facility. After taking into consideration the financial covenants under the 2011 Credit Agreement, approximately $21.5 million was available to be borrowed.
 
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding approximately $377.3 million on its term credit facility. During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company repaid approximately $3.8 million under the 2011 Credit Agreement. In addition, on April 13, 2012, the Company made an approximately $2.0 million term loan principal repayment based on its December 31, 2011 excess cash flow calculation according to the terms of the 2011 Credit Agreement. The original issue discount is being reflected as an adjustment to the carrying amount of the debt obligation and amortized to interest expense over the term of the credit facility.
 
Period between and including the November 2010 Refinancing Transactions and entering into the 2011 Credit Agreement
 
On November 24, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement amendment with its prior syndicate of banks. The credit agreement amendment, which amended and restated the Previous Credit Agreement (as defined below) (as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), among other things, replaced the existing amount of outstanding revolving loans with a $323.0 million term loan and provided for three tranches of revolving loans, including a $20.0 million revolver to be used for working capital, capital expenditures, investments, and other lawful corporate purposes, a $5.1 million revolver to be used solely to redeem and retire the 2011 Notes, and a $13.7 million revolver to be used solely to fund a capital call with respect to TV One (the “November 2010 Refinancing Transaction”).
 
During the period between November 24, 2010, and as of March 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all of its financial covenants under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.
 
Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, interest on both alternate base rate loans and LIBOR loans was payable monthly. The LIBOR interest rate floor was 1.00% and the alternate base rate was equal to the greater of the prime rate, the Federal Funds Effective Rate plus 0.50% and the LIBOR Rate for a one-month period plus 1.00%. Interest payable on (i) LIBOR loans were at LIBOR plus 6.25% and (ii) alternate base rate loans was at an alternate base rate plus 5.25% (and, in each case, could have been permanently increased if the Company exceeded certain senior leverage ratio levels, tested quarterly beginning June 30, 2011). The interest rate paid in excess of LIBOR could have been as high as 7.25% during the last quarter prior to maturity if the Company exceeded the senior leverage ratio levels on each test date. Commencing on September 30, 2011, quarterly installments of 0.25%, or $807,500, of the principal balance on the $323.0 million term loan were payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December.
  
Under the terms of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, quarterly installments of principal on the term loan facility were payable on the last day of each March, June, September and December commencing on September 30, 2007, in a percentage amount of the principal balance of the term loan facility outstanding on September 30, 2007, net of loan repayments, of 1.25% between September 30, 2007 and June 30, 2008, 5.0% between September 30, 2008 and June 30, 2009, and 6.25% between September 30, 2009 and June 30, 2012. Based on the: (i) $174.4 million net principal balance of the term loan facility outstanding on September 30, 2008; (ii) a $70.0 million prepayment in March 2009; (iii) a $31.5 million prepayment in May 2009; and (iv) a $5.0 million prepayment in May 2010, quarterly payments of $4.0 million are payable between June 30, 2010 and June 30, 2012.
  
On December 24, 2010, all remaining outstanding 2011 Notes were repurchased pursuant to the indenture governing the 2011 Notes. We incurred approximately $4.5 million in borrowings under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement in connection with such repurchase.
 
As a result of our repurchase and refinancing of the 2011 Notes, the expiration of the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement was June 30, 2012.
 
On March 31, 2011, the Company repaid all obligations under, and terminated, the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with proceeds from the 2011 Credit Agreement. During the quarter ended March 31, 2011, the Company did not borrow from the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and repaid approximately $353.7 million from proceeds from the 2011 Credit Agreement.
  
Pre November 2010 Refinancing Transactions
 
In June 2005, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement with a syndicate of banks (the “Previous Credit Agreement”), and simultaneously borrowed $437.5 million to retire all outstanding obligations under its Previous Credit Agreement. The Previous Credit Agreement was amended in April 2006 and September 2007 to modify certain financial covenants and other provisions. Prior to the November 2010 Refinancing Transaction, the Previous Credit Agreement was to expire the earlier of (a) six months prior to the scheduled maturity date of the 87/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due July 1, 2011 (January 1, 2011) (unless the 87/8% Senior Subordinated Notes have been repurchased or refinanced prior to such date) or (b) June 30, 2012. The total amount available under the Credit Agreement was $800.0 million, consisting of a $500.0 million revolving facility and a $300.0 million term loan facility. Borrowings under the credit facilities were subject to compliance with certain provisions including, but not limited, to financial covenants.
 
During the quarter ended March 31, 2010, we noted that certain of our subsidiaries identified as guarantors in our financial statements did not have requisite guarantees filed with the trustee as required under the terms of the indentures governing the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2013 (the “2013 Notes”) and 2011 Notes (the “Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries”). The Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries caused a non-monetary, technical default under the terms of the relevant indentures at December 31, 2009, causing a non-monetary, technical cross-default at December 31, 2009 under the terms of our Previous Credit Agreement. On March 30, 2010, we joined the relevant subsidiaries as guarantors under the relevant indentures (the “Joinder”). Further, on March 30, 2010, we entered into a third amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Previous Credit Agreement. The Third Amendment provided for, among other things: (i) a $100.0 million revolver commitment reduction (from $500.0 million to $400.0 million) under the bank facilities; (ii) a 1.0% floor with respect to any loan bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the adjusted LIBOR (iii) certain additional collateral requirements; (iv) certain limitations on the use of proceeds from the revolving loan commitments; (v) the addition of Interactive One, LLC as a guarantor of the loans under the Previous Credit Agreement and under the notes governed by the Company’s 2011 Notes and 2013 Notes; (vi) the waiver of the technical cross-defaults that existed as of December 31, 2009 and through the date of the amendment arising due to the Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries; and (vii) the payment of certain fees and expenses of the lenders in connection with their diligence work on the amendment.
 
Under the terms of the Previous Credit Agreement, upon any breach or default under either the 87/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due July 2011 or the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 2013, the lenders could among other actions immediately terminate the Previous Credit Agreement and declare the loans then outstanding under the Previous Credit Agreement to be due and payable in whole immediately. Similarly, under the 87/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, a default under the terms of the Previous Credit Agreement would constitute an event of default, and the trustees or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding notes (under either class) may declare the principal of such class of note and interest to be due and payable immediately.
  
As of each of June 30, 2010, July 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010, we were not in compliance with the terms of the Previous Credit Agreement. More specifically: (i) as of June 30, 2010, we failed to maintain a total leverage ratio of 7.25 to 1.00; (ii) as of each of July 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010, as a result of a step down of the total leverage ratio from no greater than 7.25 to 1.00 to no greater than 6.50 to 1.00 effective for the period July 1, 2010 to September 30, 2011, we also failed to maintain the requisite total leverage ratio; and (iii) as of September 30, 2010, we failed to maintain a senior leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00. On July 15, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a forbearance agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association), as administrative agent (the “Agent”), and financial institutions constituting the majority of outstanding loans and commitments (the “Required Lenders”) under the Previous Credit Agreement, relating to the defaults and events of default existing as of June 30, 2010 and July 1, 2010. On August 13, 2010, we entered into an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement (the “Forbearance Agreement Amendment”) that, among other things, extended the termination date of the Forbearance Agreement to September 10, 2010, unless terminated earlier by its terms, and provided additional forbearance related to the then anticipated default caused by an opinion of Ernst & Young LLP expressing substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as issued in connection with the restatement of our financial statements. Under the Forbearance Agreement and the Forbearance Agreement Amendment, the Agent and the Required Lenders maintained the right to deliver “payment blockage notices” to the trustees for the holders of the 2011 Notes and/or the 2013 Notes.
 
On August 5, 2010, the Agent delivered a payment blockage notice to the Trustee under the Indenture governing our 2013 Notes. As a result, neither we nor any of our guaranteeing subsidiaries could make any payment or distribution of any kind or character in respect of obligations under the 2013 Notes, including the interest payment that was scheduled to be made on August 16, 2010. The 30-day grace period for the nonpayment of interest before such nonpayment constituted an event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture expired on September 15, 2010. While the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding 2013 Notes could have declared the principal amount, and accrued and unpaid interest, on all outstanding 2013 Notes to be due and payable immediately as a result of such event of default, no such remedies were exercised as we continued to negotiate the terms of the amended exchange offer and a new support agreement with the members of the ad hoc group of holders of our 2011 Notes and 2013 Notes. The event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture also constituted an event of default under the Previous Credit Agreement. While the Forbearance Agreement Amendment expired by its terms on September 10, 2010, we and the Agent continued to negotiate the terms of a credit facility amendment and the Agent and the lenders did not exercise additional remedies under the Previous Credit Agreement. The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement cured all of these issues.
 
Senior Subordinated Notes
 
Period after the March 2011 Refinancing Transaction
 
On November 24, 2010, we issued $286.8 million of our 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016 in a private placement and exchanged and then cancelled approximately $97.0 million of $101.5 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 2011 Notes and approximately $199.3 million of $200.0 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 2013 Notes (the 2013 Notes together with the 2011 Notes, the “Prior Notes”). We entered into supplemental indentures in respect of each of the Prior Notes which waived any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen that may be waived and eliminated substantially all of the covenants in each indenture governing the Prior Notes, other than the covenants to pay principal and interest on the Prior Notes when due, and eliminated or modified the related events of default. Subsequently, all remaining outstanding 2011 Notes were repurchased pursuant to the indenture governing the 2011 Notes, effective as of December 24, 2010.
 
As of December 31, 2012, the Company had outstanding $747,000 of its 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 2013 and $327.0 million of our 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes due May 2016. During the year ended December 31, 2010, pursuant to the debt exchange, the Company repurchased $101.5 million of the 87/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at par and $199.3 million of the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at an average discount of 5.0%, and recorded a gain on the retirement of debt of approximately $6.6 million, net of the write-off of deferred financing costs of approximately $3.3 million.
 
Interest payments under the terms of the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes are due in February and August. Based on the $747,000 principal balance of the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes outstanding on September 30, 2011, interest payments of $24,000 are payable each February and August through February 2013.
 
Interest on the 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes was initially payable in cash, or at our election, partially in cash and partially through the issuance of additional 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes (a “PIK Election”) on a quarterly basis in arrears on February 15, May 15, August 15 and November 15, commencing on February 15, 2011. We made a PIK Election only with respect to interest accruing up to but not including May 15, 2012, and with respect to interest accruing from and after May 15, 2012 such interest accrues at a rate of 121/2% and is payable in cash.
  
Interest on the Exchange Notes accrued from the date of original issuance or, if interest had already been paid, from the date it was most recently paid. Interest accrues for each quarterly period at a rate of 121/2% for such quarterly period that interest is paid fully in cash. However, during the period the PIK Election was in effect, the interest paid in cash and the interest paid-in-kind by issuance of additional Exchange Notes (“PIK Notes”) accrued for such quarterly period at 6.0% cash per annum and 9.0% PIK per annum.
 
A PIK Election remained in effect through May 15, 2012. After May 15, 2012, interest accrued at a rate of 121/2% and was payable wholly in cash and the Company no longer had an option to pay any portion of its interest through the issuance of PIK Notes.  During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company issued approximately $14.2 million of additional 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes in accordance with the PIK Election that was in effect through May 15, 2012.
  
The indentures governing the Company’s 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes also contain covenants that restrict, among other things, the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, purchase common stock, make capital expenditures, make investments or other restricted payments, swap or sell assets, engage in transactions with related parties, secure non-senior debt with assets, or merge, consolidate or sell all or substantially all of its assets.
 
The Company conducts a portion of its business through its subsidiaries. Certain of the Company’s subsidiaries have fully and unconditionally guaranteed the Company’s 121/2%/15% Senior Subordinated Notes, the 63/8% Senior Subordinated Notes and the Company’s obligations under the 2011 Credit Agreement.
 
Period prior to November 2010 Refinancing Transactions
 
Subsequent to December 31, 2009, we noted that certain of our subsidiaries identified as guarantors in our financial statements did not have requisite guarantees filed with the trustee as required under the terms of the indentures (the “Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries”). The Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries caused a non-monetary, technical default under the terms of the relevant indentures at December 31, 2009, causing a non-monetary, technical cross-default at December 31, 2009, under the terms of our Credit Agreement dated as of June 13, 2005. We have since joined the relevant subsidiaries as guarantors under the relevant indentures (the “Joinder”). Further, on March 30, 2010, we entered into a third amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to the Credit Agreement. The Third Amendment provides for, among other things: (i) a $100.0 million revolver commitment reduction under the bank facilities; (ii) a 1.0% floor with respect to any loan bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the adjusted LIBOR; (iii) certain additional collateral requirements; (iv) certain limitations on the use of proceeds from the revolving loan commitments; (v) the addition of Interactive One, LLC as a guarantor of the loans under the Credit Agreement and under the notes governed by the Company’s 2001 and 2005 senior subordinated debt documents; (vi) the waiver of the technical cross-defaults that existed as of December 31, 2009 and through the date of the amendment arising due to the Non-Joinder of Certain Subsidiaries; and (vii) the payment of certain fees and expenses of the lenders in connection with their diligence in connection with the amendment.
 
On August 5, 2010, the Agent under our Previous Credit Agreement delivered a payment blockage notice to the Trustee under the Indenture governing our 2013 Notes. As a result, neither we nor any of our guaranteeing subsidiaries may make any payment or distribution of any kind or character in respect of obligations under the 2013 Notes, including the interest payment that was scheduled to be made on August 16, 2010. The 30-day grace period for the nonpayment of interest before such nonpayment constituted an event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture expired on September 15, 2010. While the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding 2013 Notes could have declared the principal amount, and accrued and unpaid interest, on all outstanding 2013 Notes to be due and payable immediately as a result of such event of default, no such remedies were exercised as we continued to negotiate the terms of the amended exchange offer and a new support agreement with the members of the ad hoc group of holders of our 2011 and 2013 Notes. The event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture also constituted an event of default under the Previous Credit Agreement. As of November 24, 2010, any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen were cured.
  
As of each of June 30, 2010, July 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010, we were not in compliance with the terms of our Previous Credit Agreement. More specifically: (i) as of June 30, 2010, we failed to maintain a total leverage ratio of 7.25 to 1.00; (ii) as of each of July 1, 2010 and September 30, 2010, as a result of a step down of the total leverage ratio from no greater than 7.25 to 1.00 to no greater than 6.50 to 1.00 effective for the period July 1, 2010 to September 30, 2011, we also failed to maintain the requisite total leverage ratio; and (iii) as of September 30, 2010, we failed to maintain a senior leverage ratio of 4.00 to 1.00. On July 15, 2010, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into the Forbearance Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (successor by merger to Wachovia Bank, National Association), as Agent, and the Required Lenders under our Previous Credit Agreement, relating to the defaults and events of default existing as of June 30, 2010 and July 1, 2010. On August 13, 2010, we entered into an amendment to the Forbearance Agreement Amendment that, among other things, extended the termination date of the Forbearance Agreement to September 10, 2010, unless terminated earlier by its terms, and provided additional forbearance related to the then anticipated default caused by an opinion of Ernst & Young LLP expressing substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern as issued in connection with the restatement of our financial statements. Under the Forbearance Agreement and the Forbearance Agreement Amendment, the Agent and the Required Lenders maintained the right to deliver “payment blockage notices” to the trustees for the holders of the 2011 Notes and/or the 2013 Notes.
  
On August 5, 2010, the Agent under our Previous Credit Agreement delivered a payment blockage notice to the Trustee under the Indenture governing our 2013 Notes. As a result, neither we nor any of our guaranteeing subsidiaries could make any payment or distribution of any kind or character in respect of obligations under the 2013 Notes, including the interest payment that was scheduled to be made on August 16, 2010. The 30-day grace period for the nonpayment of interest before such nonpayment constituted an event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture expired on September 15, 2010. While the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding 2013 Notes could declare the principal amount, and accrued and unpaid interest, on all outstanding 2013 Notes to be due and payable immediately as a result of such event of default, as of the date of this filing, no such remedies were exercised as we continued to negotiate the terms of the amended exchange offer and a new support agreement with the members of the ad hoc group of holders of our 2011 and 2013 Notes. The event of default under the 2013 Notes Indenture also constituted an event of default under the Previous Credit Agreement. As of November 24, 2010, as a result of the November 2010 Refinancing Transactions, any and all existing defaults and events of default that had arisen or may have arisen were cured.
 
TV One Senior Secured Notes
 
In connection with the Redemption Financing, TV One issued $119.0 million in senior secured notes on February 25, 2011.
