Senior Secured Notes

In conjunction with the SageQuest acquisition on July 30, 2010, the Company entered into a credit agreement with D.E. Shaw Direct Capital Portfolios, LLC (“DE Shaw”) for $17,500 of senior secured notes (the “Senior Secured Notes”). All of the assets of the Company, inclusive of the SageQuest assets acquired, were used to collateralize the Senior Secured Notes.

Principal amounts under the Senior Secured Notes were payable in monthly installments commencing March 2012 and continuing through the maturity date on July 30, 2014. Prepayment of the Senior Secured Notes would have been required upon (a) the sale of substantially all of the Company’s assets or a change in control upon the sale of equity, (b) the disposition, involuntary or voluntary, of any asset in a single transaction or series of related transactions in excess of $50, subject to permitted reinvestment, (c) a registered firm commitment underwritten public offering by the Company of its ordinary shares resulting in aggregate gross cash proceeds greater than $50,000 and in which the initial price to the public is at least $13.91 per share, as adjusted for any share capital subdivision or consolidation (a “Qualified Public Offering”), and (d) any excess cash flow generated by the Company, defined as (i) positive cash flow from operations, plus (ii) any cash flow from extraordinary receipts, less (iii) repayments of the Senior Secured Notes, less (iv) the unfinanced cash portion of capital expenditures net of any proceeds received from sales of fixed assets (each, a “Prepayment Event”). The maximum prepayment due upon a Prepayment Event would have varied based on the date that the Prepayment Event had occurred: prior to July 30, 2012, 103% of the principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest would have been due; from July 31, 2012 through July 30, 2013, 101% of the principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest would have been due; July 31, 2013 and thereafter, 100% of the principal balance plus accrued and unpaid interest would have been due. However, the prepayment would have been limited to the net proceeds generated in the Prepayment Event, except for in the case of excess cash flow. In the case of excess cash flow, the prepayment would have been limited to 50% of such excess cash flow.

The Senior Secured Notes bore interest at a floating rate of one-month LIBOR plus 9.50% per annum (based on actual days), but not less than 12.5%. As of December 31, 2011, the actual interest rate was 12.5%. Interest was payable monthly in arrears, commencing September 1, 2010 until the Senior Secured Notes were repaid in full. In the event of default and until the event of default was cured or waived, the interest rate was to be 2.5% per annum higher than the otherwise applicable interest rate.

On the issuance date, the Senior Secured Notes were recorded in the consolidated balance sheet net of discount of $690, related to fees assessed by the lender at that time. The carrying value of debt was being accreted to the principal amount of the debt by charges to interest expense using the effective-interest method over the four-year term of the Senior Secured Notes to the maturity date. At December 31, 2011, the debt discount balance totaled $449. Accretion amounts recognized as interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011 totaled $170.

The credit agreement required the Company to maintain financial covenants, one of which limited the Company’s maximum total leverage ratio (total indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments, as defined by the terms of the Senior Secured Notes agreement). The financial covenants would have become more restrictive in 2012 and 2013. In addition, the Company was required to maintain other affirmative, negative and financial covenants. The Company was not in compliance with certain of the covenants at December 31, 2011. However, the Company received a waiver of noncompliance from DE Shaw through May 31, 2012.

On May 10, 2012, the Company used the proceeds from the $25,000 Term Loan of its Senior Secured Credit Facility to pay in full all amounts due under the Senior Secured Notes, including principal then remaining of $17,063, prepayment premium of $512 and accrued interest. As a result of the early repayment of the Senior Secured Notes, in the year ended December 31, 2012, the Company recorded a loss on extinguishment of debt of $934, comprised of the write-off of unamortized debt discount of $387 and unamortized deferred financing cost of $18, the prepayment premium of $512 paid in cash, and associated legal fees of $17.

Senior Secured Credit Facility

On May 10, 2012, the Company entered into a credit facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC consisting of a $25,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”) and a $25,000 revolving line of credit (the “Revolving Credit Facility”), which would have expired on May 10, 2017 (collectively, the “Senior Secured Credit Facility”). The Senior Secured Credit Facility was collateralized by a senior first lien on all assets and property of the Company. The purpose of the Senior Secured Credit Facility was to repay the outstanding principal of the Senior Secured Notes, which was repaid on May 10, 2012 with proceeds of the $25,000 Term Loan, and to provide an additional source of liquidity to the Company. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility were subject to drawdown limitations based on financial ratios of the Company.

The interest rate on the Term Loan and borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility was either (a) LIBOR plus 3.5% per annum, but not less than 4.5% per annum, or (b) at our option, subject to certain conditions, base rate plus 2.5% per annum, but not less than 5.5% per annum. Principal due under the Term Loan was payable in quarterly installments commencing on December 31, 2012, with $313 due in 2012, $1,250 due in 2013, $1,406 due in 2014, $2,031 due in 2015, $2,500 due in 2016 and $17,500 due in 2017. All amounts borrowed under the revolving line of credit were due and payable on May 10, 2017. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facility required a 1% prepayment penalty if the facility was terminated within the first twelve months of the agreement.

On the issuance date of May 10, 2012, the Term Loan was recorded in the consolidated balance sheet net of discount of $651, related to fees assessed by the lender at the time. The carrying value of this debt was being accreted to the principal amount of the debt by charges to interest expense using the effective-interest method over the five-year term of the Term Loan to the maturity date. At December 31, 2012, the debt discount balance totaled $556. Accretion amounts recognized as interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $95. On the issuance date, the Company also capitalized deferred financing costs of $484 related to third-party fees incurred in connection with the Senior Secured Credit Facility. These deferred costs were being amortized through charges to interest expense using the effective-interest method over the five-year term of the Senior Secured Credit Facility to the expiration date. At December 31, 2012, deferred financing cost recorded in other current assets and other assets (non-current) were $106 and $307, and totaled $413. Amortization amounts recognized as interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2012 totaled $71.

The Senior Secured Credit Facility contained financial covenants that, among other things, required the Company to maintain liquidity of at least $10,000, comprised of cash plus availability under borrowings, and limited the Company’s maximum total leverage ratio (total indebtedness with a maturity greater than twelve months to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization and certain other adjustments, as defined by the terms of the Senior Secured Credit Facility agreement). The leverage ratio became more restrictive in each of 2013 and 2014. The Senior Secured Credit Facility also required the Company to maintain other affirmative and negative covenants. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of December 31, 2012.

Amended Revolving Credit Facility

On November 29, 2013, Fleetmatics entered into an amendment to the existing Senior Secured Credit Facility with Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC (the “Credit Facility Amendment”). The Credit Facility Amendment replaced the $25,000 term loan (the “Term Loan”) and the $25,000 revolving line of credit with a $50,000 revolving line of credit (the “Amended Revolving Credit Facility”). As of December 31, 2013, the Company had outstanding borrowings of $23,750 under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility, which were used to pay down the remaining unpaid principal balance of the Term Loan. The Amended Revolving Credit Facility contains certain customary financial covenants, including a leverage ratio and minimum liquidity requirement. The Company was in compliance with all such covenants as of December 31, 2013. At the Company’s election, the interest rate on borrowings under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility is either (a) LIBOR plus 2.0% per annum, or (b) base rate plus 1.0% per annum. Amounts borrowed under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility may be repaid and, subject to customary terms and conditions, reborrowed at any time during and up to the maturity date. Any outstanding balance under the Amended Revolving Credit Facility is due and payable no later than May 10, 2017. As a result of the repayment of the Term Loan in November 2013, the Company recorded as interest expense the unamortized debt discount of $426 and a $158 reduction of debt issuance costs.
