REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
REVOLVING CREDIT FACILITY
On April 11, 2013, the Company entered into a five-year $1,200,000 unsecured senior revolving credit facility (the “New Facility”) with a syndicate of banks, which expires on April 11, 2018. The Company terminated its existing $500,000 senior revolving credit facility, which would have expired in fiscal year 2015 (the “Prior Facility”). In connection with the New Facility, the Company incurred deferred financing costs of $3,043, which will be amortized to interest expense over the term of the New Facility. There were no amounts outstanding against the Prior Facility or the New Facility for any of the periods presented. Letters of credit outstanding against the New Facility as of April 30, 2013 were approximately $7,242.
Borrowings under the New Facility bear interest at either a variable rate based upon the London InterBank Offered Rate (U.S. dollar, British Pound, Euro, Swiss Franc and Japanese Yen borrowings) or the European Union Banking Federation Rate (Euro borrowings) or at the prime rate of the Facility Agent (U.S. dollar borrowing only). The New Facility requires the Company to maintain a consolidated leverage ratio (Consolidated Funded Debt to Earnings Before Net Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, Amortization and the Non-Cash Portion of Non-Recurring Charges and Income (“EBITDA”)) not to exceed 3.50 to 1.00, based upon the trailing four quarters' results.
In addition, the New Facility includes other covenants that under certain circumstances may restrict the Company’s ability to incur additional indebtedness, make investments and other restricted payments, enter into sale and leaseback transactions, create liens and sell assets. As of April 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with all related financial and other restrictive covenants, including limitations on indebtedness.
