K. CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS 

The Company has no outstanding long-term debt as of August 31, 2014 and 2013.  The Company’s credit arrangements consisted of the following:

 

Credit Facility Agreement

The Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary, Lindsay International Holdings B.V., has an unsecured $5.0 million Credit Facility Agreement with Coöperatieve Centrale Raiffeisen-Boerenleenbank B.A. (“Rabobank”),  which was entered into on August 22, 2014 (the “Credit Facility Agreement”).    The borrowings from the Credit Facility Agreement may primarily be used for working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.  There were no borrowings outstanding on the Credit Facility Agreement at August 31, 2014.  Borrowings under the Credit Facility Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 115 basis points (1.31 percent at August 31, 2014).  The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.25 percent on the unused portion of the Credit Facility Agreement. Unpaid principal and interest is due by August 21, 2015. 

Revolving Credit Agreement 

The Company has an unsecured $30.0 million Revolving Credit Note and Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., which was amended on January 22, 2014 to revise letter of credit expiry dates and cash collateralization procedures (the “Revolving Credit Agreement”).  The borrowings from the Revolving Credit Agreement may primarily be used for working capital purposes and funding acquisitions.  At August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on the Revolving Credit Agreement.  The amount of borrowings available at any time under the Revolving Credit Agreement is reduced by the amount of standby letters of credit then outstanding.  At August 31, 2014, the Company had the ability to borrow $24.5 million under this facility, after consideration of standby letters of credit of $5.5 million. Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Agreement bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 90 basis points (1.06 percent at August 31, 2014), subject to adjustment as set forth in the Revolving Credit Agreement.  Interest is paid on a monthly to quarterly basis depending on loan type.  The Company also pays an annual commitment fee of 0.25 percent on the unused portion of the Revolving Credit Agreement.  Unpaid principal and interest is due by February 13, 2016.

 

The credit agreements contain certain covenants relating to the Company’s financial condition. Upon the occurrence of any event of default of these covenants, including a change in control of the Company, all amounts due thereunder may be declared to be immediately due and payable.  At August 31, 2014 and 2013, the Company was in compliance with all loan covenants.
