Effective July 1, 2013, the Company entered into an amended and restated 5-year credit agreement with Fifth Third Bank that made available to the Company up to $15,000,000 on a revolving credit basis in addition to a $30,000,000 term loan utilized to finance the acquisition of substantially all of the assets of HPI Direct, Inc. as discussed in Note 2. Interest is payable on both the revolving credit agreement and the term loan at LIBOR (rounded up to the next 1/8^th of 1%) plus 0.95% based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings (1.2% at June 30, 2014). The Company pays an annual commitment fee of 0.10% on the average unused portion of the commitment. The available balance under the credit agreement is reduced by outstanding letters of credit. As of June 30, 2014, there was $123,000 outstanding under letters of credit.

On October 22, 2013, the credit agreement was amended to, among other things, increase the amount of permitted investments in subsidiaries that are not parties to the credit and related agreements, from $1 million to $5 million.

On May 1, 2014, the credit agreement was amended to provide for an additional $10 million revolving credit facility with Fifth Third Bank (the “Add on Credit Facility”), pursuant to the Second Amendment to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Other Loan Documents, dated May 1, 2014. The Add on Credit Facility matures July 1, 2016. Interest is payable on the Add on Credit Facility at LIBOR (rounded up to the next 1/8^th of 1%) plus 0.95% based upon the one-month LIBOR rate for U.S. dollar based borrowings (1.2% at June 30, 2014). The Company pays an annual commitment fee of 0.50% on the average unused portion of the commitment.

In order to reduce interest rate risk on the term loan, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with Fifth Third Bank, N.A. in July 2013 that was designed to effectively convert or hedge the variable interest rate on a portion of such borrowing to achieve a net fixed rate of 2.53% per annum, beginning July 1, 2014 with a notional amount of $14,250,000 that is adjusted to match the outstanding principal on the related debt. The notional amount of the interest rate swap is reduced by the scheduled amortization of the principal balance of the term loan of $187,500 per month through July 1, 2015 and $250,000 per month through June 1, 2018. The remaining notional balance of $3,250,000 will be eliminated at the maturity of the term loan on July 1, 2018.

Under the terms of the interest rate swap, the Company will receive variable interest rate payments and make fixed interest rate payments on an amount equal to the notional amount at that time. Changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap designated as the hedging instrument that effectively offset the variability of cash flows associated with the variable-rate, long-term debt obligation are reported in Other Comprehensive Income, net of tax ("OCI"). At June 30, 2014, the interest rate swap had a negative fair value of $228,000, which is presented within other current liabilities within the Consolidated Balance Sheet. The aggregate change of $228,000, net of tax benefit of $81,000, since the inception of the hedge in July 2013 has been recorded within OCI through June 30, 2014. The Company does not currently expect any of those losses to be reclassified into earnings over the subsequent twelve-month period.

The remaining scheduled amortization for the term loan is as follows: 2014 $1,125,000; 2015 $2,625,000; 2016 $3,000,000; 2017 $3,000,000; 2018 $15,875,000. The term loan does not include a prepayment penalty. In connection with the amended and restated credit agreement, the Company incurred approximately $68,000 of debt financing costs, which primarily consisted of legal fees. These costs are being amortized over the life of the credit agreement and are recorded as additional interest expense.

The amended and restated credit agreement with Fifth Third Bank is secured by substantially all of the operating assets of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. and is guaranteed by all domestic subsidiaries of Superior Uniform Group, Inc. The agreement contains restrictive provisions concerning a maximum funded senior indebtedness to EBITDA ratio as defined in the agreement (3.5:1), a maximum funded indebtedness to EBITDA ratio as defined in the agreement (4.0:1) and fixed charge coverage ratio (1.25:1). The Company is in full compliance with all terms, conditions and covenants of the credit agreement.
