The Company maintains a $175.0 million domestic revolving credit facility, which expires in August 2018.  Borrowings under the credit agreement bear interest at a variable rate based on the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus 125 to 225 basis points (1.6 percent at March 31, 2015) depending upon the Company’s leverage ratio, as defined below.  At March 31, 2015 and 2014, no borrowings were outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

The Company also maintains credit agreements for its foreign subsidiaries, with outstanding short-term borrowings at March 31, 2015 and 2014 of $18.6 million and $32.4 million, respectively.  At March 31, 2015, the Company’s foreign unused lines of credit totaled $41.0 million.  In aggregate, the Company had total available lines of credit of $216.0 million at March 31, 2015.

Provisions in the Company’s revolving credit facility, Senior Note agreements, and various foreign credit agreements require the Company to maintain compliance with various covenants and include certain cross-default clauses. Under its primary debt agreements in the U.S., the Company has provided a lien on substantially all domestic assets. The Company is also subject to a leverage ratio covenant, which requires the Company to limit its consolidated indebtedness, less a portion of the Company’s cash balance, both as defined by the credit agreement, to no more than three and one-quarter times consolidated net earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, and certain other adjustments (“Adjusted EBITDA”), and an interest expense coverage ratio, which requires the Company to maintain Adjusted EBITDA of at least three times consolidated interest expense.  The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of March 31, 2015.
