Note 9 – Debt

As discussed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on June 17, 2013, the Company entered into a revised syndicated multicurrency credit facility on June 14, 2013, which amended and replaced the Company's previous credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. and certain other major financial institutions. The revised facility increased the maximum principal amount available for revolving credit borrowings under this facility from $175,000 to $300,000, which can be increased to $400,000 at the Company's option if the lenders agree and the Company satisfies certain conditions. This facility matures in June 2018. In addition, the revised facility amended certain financial, acquisition and other covenants, but the consolidated leverage ratio calculation, for which access to credit under the former facility largely depended upon, remains relatively consistent and cannot exceed 3.50 to 1. At September 30, 2013 and December 31, 2012, the consolidated leverage ratio was below 1.0 to 1 and the Company was also in compliance with all of the current and former facilities' other covenants, respectively. At September 30, 2013, the Company had no amounts outstanding under this revised facility. At December 31, 2012, the Company had approximately $12,200 outstanding under its former facility.
