Long-Term Debt

10. Long-Term Debt

The Company’s senior unsecured revolving Credit Agreement dated January 18, 2013 (the “Credit Agreement”), provides for an aggregate availability up to $75.0 million with an option to increase the facility by an additional $50.0 million, subject to lender consent, and a $15.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The Credit Agreement matures on January 18, 2018 and replaces the senior secured Loan Agreement dated as of March 14, 2011 (the “Previous Credit Agreement”), which was terminated on the same date the Credit Agreement was entered into. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement bear interest, at the election of the Company, at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus the applicable margin or the base rate plus the applicable margin. The base rate is the highest of (i) the published prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 1.50%, or (iii) one month LIBOR plus 1.50%. The applicable margin is based on a percentage per annum determined in accordance with a specified pricing grid based on the total funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. For LIBOR loans, the applicable margin will range from 0.50% to 1.50% per annum, while for base rate loans the applicable margin will range from 0.00% to 0.25% per annum. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.35% on the facility’s unused commitments based on the Company’s funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. The financial covenants include a maximum consolidated funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio and a minimum adjusted EBITDA, each as defined in the Credit Agreement. As of April 30, 2014, the Company is in compliance with its financial covenants. In addition, there is a domestic liquidity requirement that the Company maintain $50.0 million in unrestricted cash and/or marketable securities (excluding any marketable securities that are held in trust for the settlement of the Company’s obligation under certain deferred compensation plans) as a condition to consummating permitted acquisitions, paying dividends to our shareholders and share repurchases of our common stock. We are permitted to pay up to $50.0 million in dividends in any fiscal year (subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions), which amount is further limited by any shares repurchased and any consideration paid with respect to acquisitions during such fiscal year.

As of April 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no borrowings under its long-term debt arrangements. At April 30, 2014 and 2013, there was $2.8 million and $2.7 million, respectively, of standby letters of credit issued under its long-term debt arrangements. As of April 30, 2013, under its previous senior secured credit agreement, the Company was required to maintain $2.9 million in restricted cash to provide collateral for the standby letters of credit that remain outstanding. During fiscal 2014, the Company transferred the standby letters of credit associated with certain lease for premises from its senior secured credit agreement to its current senior unsecured revolving credit agreement and as a result the Company has no restricted cash balance as of April 30, 2014 compared to $2.9 million at April 30, 2013. The Company has a total of $1.5 million and $1.4 million of standby letters of credits with other financial institutions as of April 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

The Company has outstanding borrowings against the CSV of COLI contracts of $72.9 million and $73.3 million at April 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. CSV reflected in the accompanying balance sheet is net of the outstanding borrowings, which are secured by the CSV of the life insurance policies. Principal payments are not scheduled and interest is payable at least annually at various fixed and variable rates ranging from 4.76% to 8.00%.
