On May 6, 2011, the Company, increased and fully exercised the accordion feature of its senior secured revolving credit facility, dated October 11, 2010, by and among the Company, the guarantors party thereto, Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Credit Facility”). The increase and exercise of the accordion feature increased the committed capacity of the Credit Facility by $55 million, from a total of $245 million to $300 million. Pursuant to the accordion increase and exercise, the Company entered into revolving commitment agreements with one new bank, adding the bank as additional lender under the Credit Agreement, and one of the existing banks increased its revolving commitment.
Concurrently with the foregoing, the Company amended the Credit Facility to, among other things, (i) permit its maximum senior leverage ratio to temporarily increase from 3.0 to 1 to 3.5 to 1 for the quarters ending June 30 and September 30, 2011 and 3.25 to 1 for the quarter ending December 31, 2011 and 3.0 to 1 thereafter; (ii) permit the netting of unrestricted domestic cash in excess of $2.5 million but not exceeding $12.5 million against funded indebtedness for purposes of calculating leverage ratios; (iii) increase permitted debt in the United Kingdom from £15 million to £35 million; and (iv) add flexibility to the Company’s ability to transfer funds to and from its United Kingdom subsidiaries.
In connection with the amendments, the Company paid commitment fees for the increase and exercise of the accordion in accordance with the terms of the Credit Facility, which included an increase in the letter of credit fee and Applicable Rate of Euro currency note loans and base rate loans of 0.25% during such times as the Company’s consolidated leverage ratio exceeds 3.0 to 1.
