At April 27, 2013, a subsidiary of the Company maintained unsecured revolving credit facilities with banks aggregating $100 million (the “Credit Facilities”). The Credit Facilities expire from November 22, 2015 to April 30, 2016 and current borrowings bear interest at .9% above one-month LIBOR (1.1% at April 27, 2013). At April 27, 2013, borrowings outstanding under the Credit Facilities were $50 million, $2.3 million of the Credit Facilities were used for standby letters of credit and $47.7 million were available for borrowings. The Credit Facilities require the subsidiary to maintain certain financial ratios, principally debt to net worth and debt to EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facilities), and contain other restrictions, none of which are expected to have a material effect on our operations or financial position. At April 27, 2013, we were in compliance with all loan covenants.
