Note 6— Financing

 

We have an unsecured revolving credit facility of $150 million in place through January 17, 2017. The facility is used for working capital, general corporate purposes and to back-up our use of commercial paper. This facility requires our total indebtedness to be less than 62.5% of our total capitalization at the end of each fiscal quarter and our EBITDA (defined as net income plus interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) to be at least two times our interest charges for the trailing four fiscal quarters at the end of each fiscal quarter. Failure to maintain these ratios will result in an event of default under the credit facility and will prohibit us from borrowing funds thereunder. As of March 31, 2014, we are in compliance with these ratios. Our total indebtedness is 49.5% of our total capitalization as of March 31, 2014 and our EBITDA is 5.8 times our interest charges. This credit facility is also subject to cross-default if we default on in excess of $10 million in the aggregate on our other indebtedness. This arrangement does not serve to legally restrict the use of our cash in the normal course of operations. There were no outstanding borrowings under this agreement at March 31, 2014, however, $4.5 million was used to back up our outstanding commercial paper.
