FINANCING ARRANGEMENTS
On June 9, 2011, the Company entered into a Credit Agreement (Agreement) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent, and certain other banks parties thereto.
The Agreement provides for a $30.0 million revolving credit facility maturing June 9, 2014. The financial covenants in the Agreement require that the Company maintain a cash flow leverage ratio of at least 3.0 to 1.0, measured by comparing quarterly total funded debt to EBITDA. In addition, the Company and its subsidiaries must maintain minimum cash and cash equivalents and certain other approved investments of at least $25.0 million, with $10.0 million held by the Borrowers with the Agent or its affiliates in bank accounts in the United States. Cash and cash equivalents and investments held by foreign subsidiaries are valued at 65% of the applicable currency value for purposes of these calculations. In addition to the financial metric covenants required under the revolving credit facility, under the terms of the Agreement, as amended in August 2012, the Company is restricted from making annual capital expenditures during any fiscal year in excess of $85.0 million. At both December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company had no outstanding borrowings and was in compliance with all applicable debt covenants included in the terms of the Agreement. The Company expects that the revolving credit facility will be terminated upon consummation of the prospective acquisition described in note 18 to the consolidated financial statements.
Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company may elect that the loans comprising each borrowing bear interest at a rate per annum equal to either (a) the sum of 2.50%, plus the one month LIBOR rate then in effect, for base rate loans (“Base Rate Loans”); or (b) the sum of 2.50% plus, (i) the one-month LIBOR rate then in effect, (ii) the two-month LIBOR rate then in effect or (iii) the three-month LIBOR rate then in effect, for LIBOR loans (“LIBOR Loans”). The interest rate on Base Rate Loans will remain the same while such loan is outstanding, while the interest rate for LIBOR Loans will only be effective for the interest period which corresponds to the effective LIBOR rate. LIBOR Loans will convert to Base Rate Loans at the end of an applicable interest period unless the Company requests a new LIBOR Loan. Base Rate Loans may be converted to LIBOR Loans at the Company’s option with three days notice to the Agent. In addition, the Company pays a commitment fee of 0.375% on the unborrowed commitments under the Agreement.
The Company has entered into unsecured line of credit agreements, which expire at various dates, with two international commercial banks, which provide for borrowings of Japanese yen for its foreign subsidiaries, equivalent to $11.4 million as of December 31, 2013. Interest rates for these facilities are based on a factor of the banks’ reference rates. Borrowings outstanding under international line of credit agreements were none at both December 31, 2013 and 2012.
