Note 9 - Debt

As of September 30, 2015, total debt was $322.0 million consisting of $307.0 million of our outstanding 9.5% senior secured notes, net of discount, and a $15.0 million draw on our ABL facility.  As of December 31, 2014, total debt was $323.2 million consisting of $306.2 million of our outstanding 9.5% senior secured notes, net of discount, and a $17.0 million draw on our ABL facility.
 
Our credit documents (the ABL Facility and the indenture governing the senior secured notes) contain operating covenants that limit the discretion of management with respect to certain business matters.  These covenants place significant restrictions on, among other things, the ability to incur additional debt, to pay dividends, to create liens, to make certain payments and investments and to sell or otherwise dispose of assets and merge or consolidate with other entities.  In addition, the ABL Facility contains a fixed charge coverage ratio covenant which will be applicable if the availability under the ABL Facility is less than 10.0% of the amount of the ABL Facility.  If applicable, that covenant requires us to maintain a minimum ratio of adjusted EBITDA less capital expenditures made during such period (other than capital expenditures financed with the net cash proceeds of asset sales, recovery events, incurrence of indebtedness and the sale or issuance of equity interests) to fixed charges of 1.00 to 1.00.  We are not currently in a compliance period, and we do not expect to be in a compliance period during the next twelve months.  However, we continue to operate in a challenging commercial environment and our ability to maintain liquidity and comply with our debt covenants may be affected by changes in economic or other conditions that are beyond our control and which are difficult to predict.

The ABL Facility provides for loans and letters of credit in an amount up to the aggregate availability under the facility, subject to meeting certain borrowing base conditions, with sub-limits of up to $10.0 million for swingline loans and $20.0 million for letters of credit.  Borrowings under the ABL Facility bear interest through maturity at a variable rate based upon, at our option, either LIBOR or the base rate (which is the greatest of one-half of 1.00% in excess of the federal funds rate, 1.00% in excess of the one-month LIBOR rate and the Agent's prime rate), plus, in each case, an applicable margin.  The applicable margin for loans under the first-in last-out term facility that are (i) LIBOR loans ranges, based on the our average excess availability, from 2.75% to 3.25% per annum and (ii) base rate loans ranges, based on our average excess availability, from 1.00% to 1.50%.  The applicable margin for other advances under the ABL Facility that are (i) LIBOR loans ranges, based on our average excess availability, from 1.75% to 2.25% and (ii) base rate loans ranges, based on our average excess availability, from 0.00% to 0.50%.

We must also pay an unused line fee equal to 0.25% per annum to the lenders under the ABL Facility if utilization under the facility is greater than or equal to 50.0% of the total available commitments under the facility, or an unused line fee equal to 0.375% per annum if utilization under the facility is less than 50.0% of the total available commitments under the facility. Customary letter of credit fees are also payable, as applicable.
