On February 22, 2013, the Company entered into an agreement with three financial institutions (collectively, the “Lenders”) whereby the Lenders provided a revolving credit facility to the Company for a total of $75,000,000 (the “Credit Facility”). The Credit Facility also includes a letter of credit commitment from the lenders. Advances under the Credit Facility bear interest at selected variable rates, as defined, plus a margin based on the Company’s financial position. The principal amount of the revolving loans shall be repaid on the maturity date. The credit arrangement is secured by substantially all assets of the Company and expires on August 22, 2017.
On March 16, 2015, the Company amended and restated the Credit Facility, to among other things, extend the maturity date to March 16, 2020.
The Credit Facility contains customary covenants, including covenants that limit or restrict the Company’s ability to incur debt, create liens, consolidate or merge into other companies, sell or lease assets, pay or prepay subordinated debt, engage in sale and leaseback transactions, pay dividends, repurchase or make other distributions in respect to its capital stock and engage in transactions with affiliates. The Credit Facility also requires the Company to maintain certain minimum financial ratios and other financial measures. As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, there were no outstanding loan balances under this facility.
As of September 30, 2017 and December 31, 2016, the Company had $3,725,000 of outstanding letters of credit related to its self-insured workers’ compensation program (see Note 6).
