In August 2014, we entered into two separate equipment term loans with Banc of America Leasing & Capital LLC; one for $2.6 million to finance equipment to be used at the Company’s Rader Farms facility, and the other for $1.9 million to finance equipment to be used at Willamette Valley Fruit Company. Both of these equipment term loans accrue interest at a rate of 2.35% and will be repaid over 60 recurring monthly payments commencing September 15, 2014.

On November 8, 2013, we entered into a $60.0 million senior secured term loan and a new $30.0 million senior secured revolving line of credit with a syndicate of lenders led by U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), pursuant to a Credit Agreement, a Security Agreement and certain other customary ancillary agreements (the “Senior Credit Facility”). To facilitate the Senior Credit Facility, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries entered into a Letter Amendment Agreement, dated as of November 8, 2013, with U.S. Bank (the “Letter Amendment”). The Letter Amendment reconciled the terms of the Senior Credit Facility with the terms of the Loan and Security Agreement and that certain Loan Agreement (term loan), dated as of November 30, 2006, by and between the Company’s wholly owned subsidiary, La Cometa Properties, Inc., and U.S. Bank.

The borrowing capacity available to us under the Senior Credit Facility consists of notes representing:

A revolving line of credit up to $30.0 million, maturing on November 8, 2018. At March 28, 2015, $20.1 million was outstanding and $9.9 million was available under the line of credit. All borrowings under the revolving line of credit bear interest at either (i) the prime rate of interest announced by U.S. Bank from time to time or (ii) LIBOR, plus the LIBOR Rate Margin (as defined in the revolving credit facility note) as adjusted.

An equipment term loan B due September 2020 with interest at 3.12%. On August 14, 2013, we entered into an equipment term loan B to finance equipment located at Willamette Valley Fruit Company.

The Senior Credit Facility maintained the terms and borrowing capacity of the prior agreement with respect to the following:

Bluffton, Indiana mortgage loan due December 2016; interest rate at 30 day LIBOR plus 165 basis points, fixed through a swap agreement to 6.85%; collateralized by land and a building in Bluffton, Indiana.

Lynden, Washington real estate term loan due July 2017; interest at LIBOR plus 165 basis points; fixed through a swap agreement to 4.28%; secured by a leasehold interest in the real property in Lynden, Washington.

As is customary in such financings, U.S. Bank, on behalf of the syndicate of lenders, may terminate the syndicate’s commitments, accelerate the repayment of amounts outstanding and exercise other remedies upon the occurrence of an event of default (as defined in the Senior Credit Facility), subject, in certain instances, to the expiration of an applicable cure period. The Senior Credit Facility requires us to maintain compliance with certain financial covenants, including a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and a leverage ratio. At March 28, 2015, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants.

Interest Rate Swaps

To manage exposure to changing interest rates, we selectively enter into interest rate swap agreements. Our interest rate swaps qualify for and are designated as cash flow hedges. Changes in the fair value of a swap that is highly effective and that is designated and qualifies as a cash flow hedge to the extent that the hedge is effective, are recorded in other comprehensive income.

We entered into an interest rate swap in 2006 to convert the interest rate of the mortgage to purchase the Bluffton, Indiana facility from the contractual rate of 30 day LIBOR plus 165 basis points to a fixed rate of 6.85%. The swap has a fixed pay-rate of 6.85% and a notional value of approximately $1.8 million at each of March 28, 2015 and December 27, 2014, and expires in December 2016. We evaluate the effectiveness of the hedge on a quarterly basis and, at March 28, 2015, the hedge is highly effective. The interest rate swap had a fair value of approximately $141,000 and $155,000 at March 28, 2015 and December 27, 2014, respectively, which were recorded as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. The swap value was determined in accordance with the fair value measurement guidance discussed earlier using Level 2 observable inputs and approximates the loss that would have been realized if the contract had been settled at the end of the fiscal period.

We entered into another interest rate swap in January 2008 to effectively convert the interest rate on the real estate term loan to a fixed rate of 4.28%. The interest rate swap is structured with decreasing notional values to match the expected pay down of the debt. The notional value of the swap was $2.5 million and $2.6 million at March 28, 2015 and December 27, 2014, respectively. The interest rate swap is accounted for as a cash flow hedge derivative and expires in July 2017. The interest rate swap had fair value of approximately $185,000 and $194,000 at March 28, 2015 and December 27, 2014, respectively, which were recorded as a liability on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets. This value was determined in accordance with the fair value measurement guidance discussed earlier using Level 2 observable inputs and approximates the loss that would have been realized if the contract had been settled at the end of the fiscal period.
