Credit Facility

On November 10, 2011, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), as amended March 7, 2013, with a syndicate of financial institutions, as lenders, and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, providing for revolving loans, swingline loans, letters of credit and a term loan. The Credit Agreement consists of a five-year $250.0 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which includes a sublimit for the issuance of standby letters of credit and a sublimit for swingline loans, and a five-year $500.0 million senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Credit Facility” and, together with the Revolving Credit Facility, the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Agreement also allows the Company to request optional incremental term loans and increases in the revolving commitment. As of March 31, 2013, the Company had up to $62.0 million of unused borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility portion of the Credit Agreement. The amount of unused borrowings available varies in accordance with the terms of the agreement.

On November 10, 2011, the Company borrowed an aggregate principal amount of $75.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. On February 10, 2012, the Company borrowed an additional $95.0 million under the Revolving Credit Facility and $200.0 million under the term Credit Facility, bringing the total aggregate principal balance to $370.0 million. These additional borrowings were used in connection with the S1 acquisition that was completed on February 13, 2012. In connection with obtaining the credit agreement, the Company incurred debt issue costs of $12.8 million, $11.8 million of which was paid during the year-ended 2011.

On March 11, 2013, the Company borrowed an additional $300 million under the Term Credit Facility as amended. These additional borrowings were used in connection with the ORCC acquisition that was completed on March 11, 2013. In connection with the amendment the Company incurred debt issue costs of $9.5 million, of which $9.3 million were paid as of March 31, 2013.

Borrowings under the Credit Facility bear interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) a base rate determined by reference to the highest of (1) the rate of interest per annum publicly announced by the Administrative Agent as its Prime Rate, (2) the federal funds effective rate plus 0.50 of 1% and (3) a LIBOR based rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for a one-month interest period adjusted for certain additional costs plus 1% or (b) a LIBOR based rate determined by reference to the costs of funds for U.S. dollar deposits for the interest period relevant to such borrowing adjusted for certain additional costs, in each case plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin for borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility is, based on the calculation of the applicable consolidated total leverage ratio, between 0.50% to 1.50% with respect to base rate borrowings and between 1.50% and 2.50% with respect to LIBOR based borrowings. Interest is due and payable monthly. The interest rate in effect at March 31, 2013 was 2.46%.

In addition to paying interest on the outstanding principal under the Credit Facility, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee in respect of the unutilized commitments under the Revolving Credit Facility, payable quarterly in arrears. The Company is also required to pay letter of credit fees on the maximum amount available to be drawn under all outstanding letters of credit in an amount equal to the applicable margin on LIBOR based borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility on a per annum basis, payable quarterly in arrears, as well as customary fronting fees for the issuance of letters of credit fees and agency fees.

The Company is permitted to voluntarily reduce the unutilized portion of the commitment amount and repay outstanding loans under the Credit Facility at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR based loans.

 

The Company paid $3.8 million in principal payments for the Term Credit Facility during the three months ended March 31, 2013. The following payments are expected for the Term Credit Facility over the subsequent four year period:

 

     Payments due by Period (amounts in thousands)

   $ 34,375       $ 65,625       $ 75,000       $ 307,500       $ 482,500   

The Credit Agreement also contains certain customary mandatory prepayment provisions. If certain events, as specified in the Credit Agreement, shall occur, the Company may be required to repay all or a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility.

The Credit Facility will mature on November 10, 2016. The Revolving Credit Facility will not amortize and the Term Credit Facility will amortize, with principal payable in consecutive quarterly installments.

The Company’s obligations and the obligations of the guarantors under the Guaranty and cash management arrangements entered into with lenders under the Credit Facility (or affiliates thereof) are secured by first-priority security interests in substantially all assets of the Company and any guarantor, including 100% of the capital stock of ACI Corporation and each domestic subsidiary of the Company, each domestic subsidiary of any guarantor and 65% of the voting capital stock of each foreign subsidiary of the Company that is directly owned by the Company or a guarantor, and in each case, is subject to certain exclusions set forth in the credit documentation governing the Credit Facility.

The Credit Agreement contains certain customary affirmative covenants and negative covenants that limit or restrict, subject to certain exceptions, the incurrence of liens, indebtedness of subsidiaries, mergers, advances, investments, acquisitions, transactions with affiliates, change in nature of business and the sale of the assets. The Company is also required to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio at or below a specified amount and a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio at or above a specified amount. If an event of default, as specified in the Credit Agreement, shall occur and be continuing, the Company may be required to repay all amounts outstanding under the Credit Facility. As of March 31, 2013, and at all times during the period, the Company was in compliance with its debt covenants.
