On August 29, 2008, Arctic Cat Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a new credit agreement evidencing a senior secured revolving credit facility maturing on March 31, 2009 with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and lead arranger, pursuant to which the Company may borrow an aggregate principal amount of up to $75,000,000, reducing to $60,000,000 as of October 31, 2008, and further reducing to $40,000,000 as of December 31, 2008 (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement replaces and restates the Company’s existing Credit Agreement dated July 24, 2002. The Company intends to use amounts drawn pursuant to the Credit Agreement for general corporate purposes and to repurchase or redeem shares of its outstanding common stock.
The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by all existing and future-acquired or created domestic subsidiaries, and all foreign subsidiaries of the Company to the extent that such subsidiaries can provide a guaranty without material adverse tax consequences. The Credit Agreement is secured by a lien on substantially all of the personal property of the Company and each of the Company’s domestic subsidiaries, and contains certain customary representations and warranties, covenants and events of default.
The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement is a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Credit Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1, which is incorporated herein by reference to this Item 1.01.
