Note 8. Credit Facility

On February 17, 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with several lenders (the “Credit Agreement”) providing for (i) a $350.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) and (ii) a $150.0 million senior unsecured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). Principal payments on a portion of the Term Loan are due in equal quarterly installments of $7.5 million, with the remainder due when the Credit Agreement expires in October 2016. Subject to obtaining additional commitments from lenders, the principal amount of the loans provided under the Credit Agreement may be increased by the Company by up to an additional $150.0 million through October 13, 2015.

 

As of April 30, 2013, the Company had no outstanding balance under the Revolver and a $120.0 million outstanding balance under the Term Loan, of which $90.0 million is classified as long-term. The interest paid on borrowings under the Credit Agreement and commitment fees paid on the Revolver are variable rates tied to LIBOR plus a spread based on the Company’s leverage ratio.

These borrowings under the Credit Agreement have a variable interest rate structure and are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amount of the short-term and long-term debt approximates the estimated fair value.
