Note 6—Borrowing Facilities

Under the terms of a credit agreement (the U.S. Credit Agreement), the Company has a $100 million five-year revolving credit facility for general corporate purposes with a maturity date of December 21, 2012. The U.S. Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature under which total commitments under the facility may be increased by an additional $100 million, subject to satisfaction of certain conditions and lender approval.

 

Interest on outstanding borrowings under the U.S. Credit Agreement is payable quarterly, at the Company's option, at either LIBOR plus 0.75% to 1.75% or a prime rate plus 0.00% to 0.25%, based upon the Company's debt ratio as specified in the U.S. Credit Agreement. A commitment fee of 0.15% to 0.35% per annum (based upon the Company's debt ratio) on the unused portion of the revolving credit line is payable quarterly in arrears. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the U.S. Credit Agreement and $100 million was available for future borrowings.

 

The U.S. Credit Agreement is secured by the Company's domestic inventory and accounts receivable, 100% of the stock of the Company's domestic subsidiaries, 65% of the voting capital stock of each direct foreign subsidiary and substantially all of the other tangible and intangible assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries. The U.S. Credit Agreement contains customary financial covenants as to working capital, debt leverage, fixed charges and consolidated net worth, and restricts the ability of the Company to incur additional debt, pay dividends, sell assets and to merge or consolidate with other persons. As of December 31, 2011, the Company was in compliance with all such covenants and restrictions.

 

The Company's Thailand subsidiary has a multi-purpose credit facility with Kasikornbank Public Company Limited (the Thai Credit Facility) that provides for approximately $11.1 million (350 million Thai baht) in working capital availability. The Thai Credit Facility is secured by land and buildings in Thailand. Availability of funds under the Thai Credit Facility is reviewed annually and is currently accessible through October 2012. As of December 31, 2011 and 2010, the Company's Thailand subsidiary had no working capital borrowings outstanding.
