Section 1 – Registrant’s Business and Operations
Item 1.01 – Entry Into A Material Definitive Agreement
We, our subsidiaries and our lender, PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC”), entered into Amendment No. 14 (“Amendment”), dated as of January 25, 2010, to our Revolving Credit, Term Loan and Security Agreement (“Loan Agreement”), amending the interest rate to be paid under the LIBOR option. Under the terms of the Loan Agreement, we are to pay interest on the outstanding balance of the term loan and the revolving line of credit, at our option, based on prime plus 2.5% and 2.0%, respectively, or LIBOR plus 3.5% and 3.0%, respectively. Under the Loan Agreement prior to the Amendment, the LIBOR option included a 2.5% floor, which limited the minimum interest rates on the term loan and revolving line of credit at 6.0% and 5.5%, respectively. Under the Amendment, we and PNC agreed to lower the floor on the LIBOR interest rate option by 150 basis points to 1.0%, allowing for minimum interest rate floor under the LIBOR option on the outstanding balances of our term loan and revolving line of credit of 4.5% and 4.0%, respectively. The prime rate option of prime plus 2.5% and 2.0% in connection with our term loan and revolving line of credit, respectively, was not changed under the Amendment.
All other terms of the Loan Agreement, as amended prior to this Amendment, remain principally unchanged.
