U.S. Debt

On August 27, 2013, the Company entered into a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with various lenders (the “Lenders”) and letter of credit issuers (each, an “L/C Issuer”), and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”), swing line lender and an L/C Issuer, providing for various senior secured credit facilities (collectively, the “Credit Facility”) comprised of a $65.0 million senior secured term loan, a $70.5 million senior secured U.S. dollar revolving credit facility for U.S. dollar revolving loans with sub-facilities for letters of credit and swing-line loans, and a $19.5 million senior secured multi-currency revolving credit facility for U.S. dollar and specific foreign currency loans. The Company has the option to obtain additional commitments for either the U.S. dollar revolving credit facility or the term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $30.0 million. As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, $0.8 million and $1.3 million of letters of credit were outstanding, respectively. Total unused credit availability under the Credit Facility was $69.2 million and $66.7 million at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively. Revolving loans may be borrowed, repaid and reborrowed until August 27, 2018, at which time all amounts borrowed pursuant to the Credit Facility must be repaid.

At the Company’s option, revolving loans and the term loans accrue interest at a per annum rate based on either the highest of (a) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, (b) the Agent’s prime lending rate, and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00%, plus a margin ranging from 0.5% to 1.5% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio (“Base Rate”), or a Eurocurrency Rate (as defined in the agreement) plus 1.5% to 2.5% depending on the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio. Interest on swing line loans is the Base Rate.

 

Accrued interest on Base Rate Loans is payable quarterly in arrears on the last day of each calendar quarter and at maturity. Interest on Eurocurrency Loans is payable on the last date of each applicable Interest Period (as defined in the agreement), but in no event less than once every three months and at maturity. The weighted average interest rate on outstanding borrowings was 2.22% and 2.23% at June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, respectively.

The Company has granted a security interest in substantially all of its assets to secure its obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company’s U.S. subsidiaries and such guaranty obligations are secured by a security interest on substantially all of the assets of such subsidiaries, including certain real property. The Credit Agreement may also be guaranteed by the Company’s material foreign subsidiaries to the extent no adverse tax consequences would result to the Company.

The Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants, including the requirement to maintain compliance with a consolidated leverage ratio of less than 2.75 and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of more than 1.25. The Credit Agreement also includes customary events of default and the occurrence of an event of default could result in an increased interest rate equal to 2.0% above the applicable interest rate for loans, the acceleration of the Company’s obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement and an obligation of the subsidiary guarantors to repay the full amount of the Company’s borrowings pursuant to the Credit Agreement.

As of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all related financial and other restrictive covenants under the Credit Agreement.

The Company paid $2.7 million of other customary closing fees, arrangement fees, administration fees, letter of credit fees and commitment fees for the Credit Agreement. As of both June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013, capitalized deferred financing costs of $0.6 million are included in deferred charges and other assets and $1.7 million and $1.9 million, respectively, are included as a discount to debt in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. Amortization expense was $0.2 million and $0.3 million for the respective three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and is classified as interest expense.
