In July 2013, Tiffany & Co.’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Tiffany & Co. (Shanghai) Commercial Company Limited (“Tiffany-Shanghai”), entered into a three-year multi-bank revolving credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement has an aggregate borrowing limit of RMB 930,000,000 ($152,594,000 at October 31, 2013). The Credit Agreement is available for Tiffany-Shanghai’s general working capital requirements, which included repayment of a portion of the indebtedness under Tiffany-Shanghai’s existing bank loan facilities. The Credit Agreement contains affirmative and negative covenants usual and customary for facilities of this size and purpose. The six lenders party to the Credit Agreement will make loans, upon Tiffany-Shanghai’s request, for periods of up to 12 months at the applicable interest rates as announced by the People's Bank of China. There was $57,428,000 outstanding and $95,166,000 available to be borrowed under the Credit Agreement at October 31, 2013. The interest rate applicable to the outstanding borrowings at October 31, 2013 was 6.0%. The Credit Agreement matures in July 2016.
