6.	Revolving Credit Facility and Long-Term Debt

The Company maintains a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with its principal bank, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). The Agreement provided for a $40.0 million term loan maturing December 31, 2016. The term loan has been completely paid off at December 31, 2016, compared to an outstanding balance of $15.0 million at December 31, 2015.

The Agreement was amended in December 2016 to increase our revolving credit line to $25.0 million, with a $6.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit. Of the $6.0 million sublimit for standby letters of credit, $5.3 million was used at December 31, 2016. Advances under the revolving credit facility bear interest, as selected by the Company, of either (a) a daily floating rate of one month LIBOR plus 1.75% or (b) a fixed rate of LIBOR plus 1.75%. The Agreement also provides for an unused commitment fee of 0.35% per year through December 31, 2016 and 0.375% per year thereafter on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility, and a fee of 1.75% of the face amount of each letter of credit reserved under the line of credit and 0.95% on standalone, fully secured letters of credit. The Company had no outstanding borrowings on its revolving credit line at December 31, 2016 and 2015. The line of credit expires on July 1, 2018.

The Agreement includes $5.0 million in standalone, cash-secured letters of credit at December 31, 2016 to satisfy collateral requirements associated with the Company’s former status as a self-insured employer in California. In conjunction with these letters of credit, the Company posted with the Bank as collateral $5.3 million in restricted certificates of deposit.

The credit facility is collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable and other rights to receive payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment.

The Agreement requires the satisfaction of certain financial covenants as follows:

•

EBITDA [net profit before taxes plus interest expense (net of capitalized interest expense), depreciation expense, and amortization expense] on a rolling four-quarter basis of not less than $22 million at March 31, 2017 and $25 million at the end of each fiscal quarter thereafter; and

•

ratio of restricted and unrestricted cash and marketable securities to workers’ compensation and safety incentive liabilities of at least 1.0:1.0, measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis.

The Agreement includes certain additional restrictions as follows:

•

capital expenditures may not exceed a total of $4.0 million in 2016 without the Bank’s prior approval;

•

incurring additional indebtedness is prohibited without the prior approval of the Bank, other than purchase financing (including capital leases) for the acquisition of assets, provided that the aggregate of all purchase financing does not exceed $1,000,000 at any time; and

•

the Company may not terminate or cancel any of the AICE policies without the Bank’s prior written consent.

The Agreement also contains other customary events of default. If an event of default under the Agreement occurs and is continuing, the Bank may declare any outstanding obligations under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

At December 31, 2016, the Company was in violation of the capital expenditure limitation. The Bank agreed to waive this covenant violation.

The Company maintains a mortgage loan with the Bank with a balance of approximately $4.6 million and $4.8 million at December 31, 2016 and 2015, respectively, secured by the Company’s corporate office building in Vancouver, Washington. This loan requires payment of monthly principal payments of $18,375 plus interest at a rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.25%, with the unpaid principal balance due February 1, 2018.
