On October 2, 2009 the Registrant and certain of its subsidiaries entered into Amendment No. 3 to its Loan and Security Agreement dated August 31, 2005 (the “Amendment”) with Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Central), as agent for the lenders, and the lenders participating in the amended credit facility. Among other things, the Amendment waives the requirement for the Registrant to maintain certain financial covenants measured at September 30, 2009, October 31, 2009 and November 30, 2009, modifies certain required financial covenants at December 31, 2009, January 31, 2010 and February 28, 2010, changes the calculation of the fixed charge coverage ratio to include capital expenditures in the definition of fixed charges and increases the required minimum excess availability from September 30, 2009 to March 31, 2010 by $5 million. In addition, the interest rate on the facility’s revolving line of credit and term loan was increased to prime plus a margin ranging from 1.00% to 1.25% (for prime-based borrowings) or LIBOR plus a margin ranging from 2.75% to 3.00% (for LIBOR-based borrowings).
This summary of the terms of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment, a copy of which has been filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this report.
The credit facility matures in August 2010. The credit facility is collateralized by substantially all of the Registrant’s operating assets. Failure to comply with the covenants contained in the credit facility could result in the acceleration of any outstanding balance under the facility prior to their stated maturity date. Additionally, the lenders of the credit facility can restrict the Registrant’s ability to incur additional secured indebtedness and can declare a default under the credit facility in the event of, among other things, a material adverse change in the Registrant’s business. The Registrant has no material relationship with the lenders other than the amended credit facility described herein.
