Amendment to Credit Agreement

On March 11, 2011, the Company entered into an amendment to its Credit Agreement dated as of December 1, 2010 (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”). The amendment (i) reduced the interest rate margin applicable to the Term Loans under the Credit Agreement by 0.75% to 3.0% and (ii) reduced the LIBOR floor applicable to the Term Loans under the Credit Agreement from 1.5% to 1.0%. The Company incurred $4.1 million of fees related to this amendment, which will be amortized into interest expense over the remaining term of the debt.

Revolving Credit Facility

The $100.0 million Revolving Credit Facility matures on December 1, 2015 and bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.75%, or the applicable rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement). The Revolving Credit Facility requires compliance with various covenants including but not limited to (i) minimum consolidated interest coverage ratio of 3.25:1.00 from October 1, 2011 to September 30, 2012, and 3.50:1.00 thereafter until maturity; (ii) maximum total leverage ratio of 5.00:1.00 until December 31, 2011, 4.50:1.00 from January 1, 2012 to September 30, 2012, and 4.00:1.00 from October 1, 2012 thereafter until maturity; and (iii) maximum annual capital expenditures of 7.5% of consolidated net revenues of the preceding fiscal year with an additional maximum rollover of $15.0 million from the prior year’s allowance if not expended in the fiscal year for which it is permitted. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had $99.5 million available under the Revolving Credit Facility. Availability under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2012 was net of standby letters of credit of approximately $0.5 million. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had no funds drawn on the Revolving Credit Facility. The obligations under the Revolving Credit Facility are senior obligations, are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries, and are secured by a first priority perfected interest in the equity interests of the Company’s subsidiaries, all of the Company’s assets, and all the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries.

Term Loan

The $300.0 million Term Loan Facility matures on December 1, 2016 and requires quarterly principal payments of $750,000 that commenced on March 31, 2011. From time to time, mandatory prepayments may be required as a result of excess free cash flow as defined in the Credit Agreement, certain additional debt incurrences, certain asset sales, or other events as defined in the Credit Agreement. The Term Loan Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 3.0%, or applicable rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement), and includes a 1.0% LIBOR floor. During the first nine months of 2012 the Company made a mandatory prepayment on its Term Loan Facility of $700,000.  There were no mandatory prepayments made during the first nine months of 2011. As of September 30, 2012, the interest rate on the Term Loan Facility was 4.0%. The obligations under the Term Loan Facility are senior obligations, are guaranteed by the Company’s subsidiaries, and are secured by a first priority perfected interest in the equity interests of the Company’s subsidiaries, all of the Company’s assets, and all the assets of the Company’s subsidiaries.

71/8% Senior Notes

The 71/8% Senior Notes mature November 15, 2018 and are senior indebtedness which is guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of the Company’s current and future subsidiaries. Interest is payable semi-annually on May 15 and November 15 of each year, commencing May 15, 2011.

On or prior to November 15, 2013, the Company may redeem up to 35% of the aggregate principal amount of the notes at a redemption price of 107.125% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest and additional interest to the redemption date with the proceeds of a public offering of its equity securities. On or after November 15, 2014, the Company may redeem all or from time to time a part of the notes, upon not less than 30 days and not more than 60 days’ notice, for the twelve month period beginning on November 15, of the indicated years at (i) 103.563% during 2014; (ii) 101.781% during 2015; and (iii) 100.00% during 2016 and thereafter through November 15, 2018.

Subsidiary Guarantees

The Revolving and Term Loan Facilities and the 71/8% Senior Notes are guaranteed by all of the Company’s subsidiaries. Separate condensed consolidating information is not included as the Company does not have independent assets or operations. The Guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several, and any subsidiaries of the Company other than the Guarantor Subsidiaries are minor. There are no restrictions on the ability of our subsidiaries to transfer cash to the Company or to co-guarantors. All consolidated amounts in the Company’s financial statements are representative of the combined guarantors.

Debt Covenants

At September 30, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all covenants under these debt agreements.
