Bank Revolving Credit Facility
Bank Revolving Credit Facility
The Company has a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and a Third Amended and Restated Guaranty of Payment of Debt (collectively, the “Credit Facility”), which provides total available borrowings of $450,000,000. The Credit Facility matures on March 30, 2014 and provides for one, 12-month extension option, subject to certain conditions. Borrowings bear interest at LIBOR, subject to a floor of 100 basis points, plus 3.75%. Up to $100,000,000 of the available borrowings may be used, in the aggregate, for letters of credit and/or surety bonds. The Credit Facility has a number of restrictive covenants, including a prohibition on certain consolidations and mergers, limitations on the amount of debt, guarantees and property liens that the Company may incur and restrictions on the pledging of ownership interests in subsidiaries. Additionally, the Credit Facility contains certain development limitations and financial covenants, including the maintenance of minimum liquidity, certain debt service and cash flow coverage ratios, and specified levels of shareholders’ equity (all as specified in the Credit Facility). At January 31, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all of these financial covenants.
The Company also has a First Amended Pledge Agreement (“Pledge Agreement”) with the banks party to the Credit Facility. The Pledge Agreement secures the Company’s obligations under the Credit Facility by granting a security interest to the bank group in its right, title and interest as a member, partner, shareholder or other equity holder of certain direct subsidiaries, including, but not limited to, its right to receive profits, proceeds, accounts, income, dividends, distributions or return of capital from such subsidiaries, to the extent the granting of such security interest would not result in a default under project level financing or the organizational documents of such subsidiary.

The maximum borrowings under the Credit Facility was increased to $465,000,000 on February 21, 2013, upon entering into the fourth amendment to the Credit Facility, as discussed below.
On February 21, 2013, the Company entered into the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and Fourth Amended and Restated Guaranty of Payment of Debt (the "Amended Credit Facility"). The amendment extended the maturity date to February 2016, subject to a one year extension upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, reduced the interest rate spread on the LIBOR option by 25 basis points to 3.50% and removed the prior LIBOR floor of 100 basis points. The amendment also increased available borrowings to $465,000,000, subject to certain reserve commitments to be established, as applicable, on certain dates to be used to retire certain of the Company's Senior Notes that come due during the term of the amendment, and provides an accordion provision allowing the Company to increase its total available borrowings to $500,000,000 upon satisfaction of certain conditions set forth in the Amended Credit Facility. Additionally, the amendment permits the Company to repurchase up to $100,000,000 of Class A Common Stock and to declare or pay dividends in an amount not to exceed $24,000,000 in the aggregate in any four fiscal quarter period to Class A or B common shareholders, subject to certain conditions.
In addition, on February 21, 2013, the Company entered into a Second Amended Pledge Agreement that made certain updates and conforming changes necessitated by the Amended Credit Facility.
