Credit Agreement On October 23, 2009, the Company and its subsidiaries entered into a $75,000 five year senior secured revolving WF Credit Agreement (the “WF Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Foothill, LLC, as agent, and the lenders from time to time party thereto. On November 22, 2010, this agreement was amended to increase the availability under the facility to $100,000. On April 2011, the Company entered into an additional amendment to increase the availability under the facility to $150,000 and extend the maturity date to October 23, 2015. The WF Credit Agreement replaced the Company’s existing $185,000 senior secured financing agreement with Fortress Credit Corp., as collateral agent, Wells Fargo Foothill, Inc., as administrative agent. Advances under the WF Credit Agreement will bear interest as follows: (a)(i) LIBOR Rate Loans bear interest at the LIBOR Rate and (ii) Base Rate Loans bear interest at the Base Rate, plus (b) an applicable margin. As of December 31, 2012, the applicable margin for borrowing is 2.25% in the case of Base Rate Loans and 2.50% in the case of LIBOR Rate Loans. The applicable margin may be reduced subject to the Company achieving certain trailing twelve month earning levels, as defined. In addition to paying interest on outstanding principal under the WF Credit Agreement, the Company is required to pay an unused revolver fee to lenders under the WF Credit Agreement in respect of unused commitments thereunder. On July 30, 2012, the Company entered into a further amendment to the WF Credit Agreement. This amendment provides that the Company’s Total Leverage Ratio (as defined), measured on a quarter-end basis, must be no greater than 4.0x, for the twelve-month period ending September 30, 2012 and for the twelve-month period ending on the last day of each calendar quarter thereafter. The WF Credit Agreement is guaranteed by all of the Company’s present and future subsidiaries, other than immaterial subsidiaries (as defined) and is secured by substantially all the assets of the Company. The WF Credit Agreement includes covenants that, among other things, restrict the Company’s ability and the ability of its subsidiaries to incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase the capital stock of MDC; make certain types of investments; pay dividends; incur certain liens, sell or otherwise dispose of certain assets; enter into transactions with affiliates; enter into sale and leaseback transactions; and consolidate or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of the Company’s assets to, another person. These covenants are subject to a number of important limitations and exceptions. The WF Credit Agreement also contains financial covenants, including a senior leverage ratio, a total leverage ratio, a fixed charge coverage ratio and a minimum earnings level, as defined. The Company is currently in compliance with all of the terms and conditions of its WF Credit Agreement, and management believes, based on its current financial projections and strategic initiatives, that the Company will be in compliance with covenants over the next twelve months.
