7.	Revolving Credit Facility and Long-Term Debt

The Company maintains a credit agreement (the “Agreement”) with its principal bank, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Bank”). The Agreement provided for a $40.0 million term loan maturing December 31, 2016, as well as a $14.0 million revolving credit line, with a $5.0 million sublimit for unsecured standby letters of credit. The outstanding balance on the term loan was $15.0 million at December 31, 2015 and $40.0 million at December 31, 2014. The Agreement also includes $88.3 million in cash-secured letters of credit to satisfy collateral requirements associated with security deposit requirements for workers’ compensation purposes in California. In conjunction with these letters of credit, the Company posted with the Bank as collateral $92.4 million in restricted money market funds and restricted certificates of deposit, of which $50.1 million is included in current assets on the consolidated balance sheet at December 31, 2015.

The term loan with the Bank requires payments of $5.0 million on June 30, 2016, September 30, 2016 and December 31, 2016. The term loan bears interest at the one month LIBOR plus 4.0%.

Advances under the revolving credit facility bear interest as selected by the Company of either (a) a daily floating rate of one month LIBOR plus 2% or (b) a fixed rate of LIBOR plus 2.0%. The Agreement also provides for an unused commitment fee of 0.35% per year on the average daily unused amount of the revolving credit facility, and a fee of 1.75% of the face amount of each letter of credit. The Company had no outstanding borrowings on its revolving credit line at December 31, 2015 and 2014. The revolving line of credit expires on October 1, 2017.

The credit facility is collateralized by the Company’s accounts receivable and other rights to receive payment, general intangibles and equipment.

The Agreement requires the satisfaction of certain financial covenants as follows:

•

minimum Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of no less than 1.50:1.0, measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis; and

•

ratio of restricted and unrestricted cash and marketable securities to workers’ compensation and safety incentive liabilities of at least 1.0:1.0, measured quarterly.

The Agreement includes certain additional covenants as follows:

•

capital expenditures may not exceed a total of $5.0 million in 2015 and $4.0 million in 2016 without the Bank’s prior approval;

•

incurring additional indebtedness is prohibited without the prior approval of the Bank, other than up to $200,000 per year in purchase money financing and the aggregate of all purchase money indebtedness does not exceed $400,000 at any time;

•

repurchases of the Company’s common stock are prohibited; and

•

quarterly cash dividends up to $0.22 per share may be paid so long as there is no default by the Company and payment would not cause a default.

The Agreement also contains customary events of default. If an event of default under the Agreement occurs and is continuing, the Bank may declare any outstanding obligations under the Agreement to be immediately due and payable.

The Company is currently in default under the terms of the Agreement based upon the Company’s failure to comply with covenants regarding accuracy and timeliness of financial information. We have entered into a forbearance agreement with the Bank in connection with the current default. The forbearance agreement establishes a time period during which our lender has voluntarily agreed not to cause the payment obligations under the Agreement to be immediately due and payable, to invoke default interest rates or to exercise any of the Bank’s other rights, powers and remedies. The Bank has agreed to forbear from immediate enforcement of its rights and remedies based upon the defaults through June 1, 2016. BBSI must deliver its 2015 Form 10-K by June 1, 2016 as part of this agreement. In addition, the Bank has agreed to forbear from immediate enforcement of its rights and remedies based upon the defaults through June 30, 2016 with respect to BBSI’s late filing of its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2016.

At June 30 and September 30, 2014, the Company was also in violation of the following covenants with its Bank:

•

minimum Fixed Charge Coverage ratio of no less than 1.25:1.0, measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis;

•

funded Debt: EBITDA of no more than 1.75:1, measured quarterly on a rolling four-quarter basis; and

•

ratio of restricted and unrestricted cash and marketable securities to workers’ compensation and safety incentive liabilities of at least 1.0:1.0, measured quarterly.

In addition, at December 31, 2014 and June 30, 2015, the Company was in violation of its ratio of restricted and unrestricted cash and marketable securities to workers’ compensation and safety liabilities of at least 1.0:1.0. The Company was also in violation of the fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.50:1.0 at December 31, 2015. On May 24, 2016, the Company reached an agreement with the Bank pursuant to which the Bank has agreed to waive these covenant violations upon filing of the 2015 10-K.

As part of its negotiations with the Bank on the forbearance and waivers discussed above, the Company accelerated to May 24, 2016 the payment of $2.5 million of the $5 million originally due December 31, 2016 on its term loan. The Company also agreed to pay the remaining $2.5 million balance on the December 31, 2016 payment upon the earlier of December 31, 2016 or the receipt of federal unemployment tax refunds. In addition, the Bank amended the Agreement to include delisting of the Company’s common stock by NASDAQ as an event of default.

The Company maintains a mortgage loan with the Bank with a balance of approximately $4.8 million and $5.1 million as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, respectively, secured by the Company’s corporate office building in Vancouver, Washington. This loan requires payment of monthly principal installments of $18,375, bearing interest at the one month LIBOR plus 2.25%, with the unpaid principal balance due November 1, 2017. This mortgage loan is included on current portion of long-term debt due to the forbearance agreement with the Bank.
