2011 Senior Credit Facility

 

       On May 11, 2011, TSI, LLC entered into a $350,000 senior secured credit facility (“2011 Senior Credit Facility”). The 2011 Senior Credit Facility consists of a $300,000 term loan facility (“2011 Term Loan Facility”), and a $50,000 revolving loan facility (“2011 Revolving Loan Facility”). The 2011 Term Loan Facility was issued at an original issue discount (“OID”) of 1.0% or $3,000. The proceeds were used to pay off amounts outstanding under the 2007 Senior Credit Facility, to pay the redemption price for all of the Company's outstanding 11% senior discount notes due in 2014 (the “Senior Discount Notes”), and to pay related fees and expenses. None of the revolving facility was drawn upon as of the closing date, but loans under the 2011 Revolving Loan Facility may be drawn from time to time pursuant to the terms of the 2011Senior Credit Facility. The 2011 Term Loan Facility matures on May 11, 2018, and the 2011 Revolving Loan Facility matures on May 11, 2016. The borrowings under the 2011 Senior Credit Facility are guaranteed and secured by assets and pledges of capital stock by TSI, LLC and the wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries of TSI, LLC.

 

       The $3,000 OID is recorded as a contra-liability to Long-Term debt on the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of June 30, 2011, and is being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest method. The unamortized balance of the OID as of June 30, 2011 is $2,948.

 

       As of June 30, 2011, there were no outstanding 2011 Revolving Loan Facility borrowings and outstanding letters of credit issued totaled $9,531. The unutilized portion of the 2011Revolving Loan Facility as of June 30, 2011 was $40,469.

 

Borrowings under the 2011 Term Loan Facility, at TSI, LLC's option, bear interest at either the administrative agent's base rate plus 4.5% or its Eurodollar rate plus 5.5%, each as defined in the 2011 Senior Credit Facility. The Eurodollar Rate has a floor of 1.50% and the base rate a floor of 2.50% with respect to the outstanding Term Loans. As of June 30, 2011, the interest rate was 7.0%. TSI, LLC is required to pay 0.25% of principal, or $750 per quarter and repaid principal of $750 on June 30, 2011 accordingly. If, as of the last day of any fiscal quarter of TSI Holdings (commencing with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2011), the secured leverage ratio is greater than 2.75:1.00, TSI, LLC is required to pay $3,750, or 1.25% of principal. As of June 30, 2011, TSI, LLC had a senior secured leverage ratio of 3.39:1.00 and TSI, LLC will be required to make a principal payment of $3,750 on September 30, 2011.

 

 

 

       The terms of the 2011 Senior Credit Facility provide for financial covenants which require TSI, LLC to maintain a senior secured leverage ratio, as defined, of no greater than 5.25:1.00 as of June 30, 2011, with step-downs of 0.25 in each of the next three quarters arriving at an ultimate senior secured leverage ratio requirement of 4.50:1.00 or less effective March 31, 2012 and thereafter; an interest expense coverage ratio of no less than 2.00:1.00; and a covenant that limits capital expenditures to $40,000 for the four quarters ending in any quarter during which the senior secured leverage ratio is greater than 3.00:1.00 and to $50,000 for the four quarters ending in any quarter during which the ratio is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00 but greater than 2.50:1.00. This covenant does not limit capital expenditures if the ratio is less than or equal to 2.50:1.00. TSI, LLC was in compliance with these covenants as of June 30, 2011 with a senior secured leverage ratio of 3.39:1:00 and an interest coverage ratio of 3.69:1.00.

 

     TSI, LLC may prepay the 2011 Term Loan Facility and 2011 Revolving Loan Facility without premium or penalty in accordance with the 2011 Senior Credit Facility, except that a prepayment premium of 2.0% is payable prior to May 11, 2012 and a prepayment premium of 1.0% is payable from May 11, 2012 to May 11, 2013. Mandatory prepayments are required in certain circumstances relating to cash flow in excess of certain expenditures, asset sales, insurance recovery and incurrence of certain other debt. The 2011 Senior Credit Facility contains provisions that require excess cash flow payments, as defined, to be applied against outstanding 2011 Term Loan Facility balances. The applicable excess cash flow repayment percentage is applied to the excess cash flow when determining the excess cash flow payment. Earnings, changes in working capital and capital expenditure levels all impact the determination of any excess cash flows. The applicable excess cash flow repayment percentage is 75% when the senior secured leverage ratio, as defined, exceeds 3.00:1.00; 50% when the senior secured leverage ratio is greater than 2.50:1.00 but less than 3.00:1.00; 25% when the senior secured leverage ratio is greater than 2.00:1.00 but less than 2.50:1.00 and 0% when the senior secured leverage ratio is less than or equal to 2.00:1.00. As of June 30, 2011, the 2011 Term Loan Facility has a balance of $296,302, net of the unamortized OID.

 

       Debt issuance costs related to the 2011 Senior Credit Facility were $8,065, of which, $7,288 is being amortized as interest expense, and are included in “Other assets” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unamortized loan costs of $1,550 related to the 2007 Senior Credit Facility and the Senior Discount Notes and $777 of costs related to the 2011 Senior Credit Facility were written off in the three months ended June 30, 2011 and are included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Repayment of 2007 Senior Credit Facility

       Contemporaneously with entry into the 2011 Senior Credit Facility, TSI, LLC repaid the outstanding principal amount of the 2007 Term Loan Facility of $164,001. The 2007 Term Loan Facility was set to expire on the earlier of February 27, 2014, or August 1, 2013, if the Senior Discount Notes were still outstanding. There were no outstanding amounts under the 2007 Revolving Loan Facility as of this date. The 2007 Term Loan Facility was redeemed for face value plus accrued and unpaid interest of $447 and fees related to the letters of credit of $27. The total cash paid in connection with the redemption was $164,475 as of May 11, 2011 with no early repayment penalty. The Company determined that the 2011 Senior Credit Facility was not substantially different than the 2007 Senior Credit Facility for certain lenders based on the less than 10% difference in cash flows of the respective debt instruments. A portion of the transaction was therefore accounted for as a modification of the 2007 Senior Credit Facility and a portion was accounted for as an extinguishment. In the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recorded refinancing charges of approximately $634, representing the write-off of the remaining unamortized debt costs related to the 2007 Senior Credit Facility, which is included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

 

Redemption of Senior Discount Notes

      A portion of the proceeds from the 2011 Senior Credit Facility were also used to pay the remaining principal amount on the Senior Discount Notes of $138,450 plus a call premium of 1.833% of the principal amount thereof totaling approximately $2,538 and accrued interest of $5,457. The accrued interest included interest through May 11, 2011 of $4,188, plus 30 days of additional interest of $1,269, representing the interest charge during the 30 day notification period. The Company determined that the 2011 Senior Credit Facility was substantially different than the Senior Discount Notes. In the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company wrote-off unamortized deferred financing costs of approximately $916 related to the redemption of the Senior Discount Notes, which is included in “Loss on extinguishment of debt” in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
