Under the terms of the Company’s credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), the Company can borrow up to $5.0 million from time to time (as may be limited by the covenants in the credit agreement as discussed below) up to and until January 1, 2012. Loans made under the revolving line of credit will accrue interest at either (i) the floating rate equal to the prime rate in effect from time to time or (ii) the fixed rate of 1.75% above LIBOR, at the Company’s election. For prime rate loans, the interest rate will be adjusted when each prime rate change by the bank is announced and becomes effective.  There were no outstanding borrowings under this agreement as of July 1, 2011.

 

Borrowings under the credit agreement are secured by all of the Company’s accounts receivable and other rights to payment, general intangibles, inventory and equipment, including those of the Company’s subsidiaries. In addition, borrowings under the credit agreement are secured by investments held in a securities account at Wells Fargo that must at all times have a collateral value of at least $5.0 million. Each of the Company’s subsidiaries (except Public Agency Resources) has signed an unconditional guaranty of the Company’s obligations under the credit agreement.

 

The credit agreement contains customary representations and affirmative covenants, including a covenant to maintain a tangible net worth of at least $18.0 million at all times. Tangible net worth is defined in the credit agreement as stockholders’ equity less intangible assets and loans or advances to, or investments in, any related entities or individuals. The impact of any non-cash property lease termination expense of up to $1.0 million in the aggregate recorded during the period from October 1, 2009 through December 31, 2010 was excluded from the calculation of tangible net worth under the credit agreement. As of July 1, 2011, the Company’s tangible net worth as defined under the Company’s credit agreement was met.

 

The credit agreement also includes customary negative covenants, including a covenant that prohibits the incurrence of additional indebtedness by the Company or the Company’s subsidiaries other than purchase money indebtedness not to exceed $2.0 million and indebtedness existing on the date of the credit agreement, and a covenant that prohibits payment of dividends on the Company’s stock and redemptions, repurchases or other acquisitions of the Company’s stock, except that the Company can repurchase stock with an aggregate fair market value up to $5.0 million in any calendar year.  In addition, the credit agreement includes customary events of default for a credit facility.  Upon a default, the interest rate will be increased by a default rate margin of 4.0%.  Upon the occurrence of an event of default under the credit agreement, including a breach of any of the covenants discussed above, Wells Fargo has the option to make any loans then outstanding under the credit agreement immediately due and payable and is no longer obligated to extend further credit to the Company under the credit agreement.
