7.875% senior secured notes due 2017 The Company’s 7.875% senior secured notes ("senior secured notes") are due October 2017. These notes are secured by the land and buildings of the following subsidiaries of the Company: Titan Tire Corporation, Titan Tire Corporation of Bryan, Titan Tire Corporation of Freeport and Titan Wheel Corporation of Illinois. The Company’s senior secured notes outstanding balance was $200.0 million at March 31, 2012. 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes due 2017 The Company’s 5.625% convertible senior subordinated notes ("convertible notes") are due January 2017. The initial base conversion rate for the convertible notes is 93.0016 shares of Titan common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes, equivalent to an initial base conversion price of approximately $10.75 per share of Titan common stock. If the price of Titan common stock at the time of determination exceeds the base conversion price, the base conversion rate will be increased by an additional number of shares (up to 9.3002 shares of Titan common stock per $1,000 principal amount of convertible notes) as determined pursuant to a formula described in the indenture. The base conversion rate will be subject to adjustment in certain events. The Company’s convertible notes balance was $112.9 million at March 31, 2012. Revolving credit facility The Company’s $100 million revolving credit facility ("credit facility") with agent Bank of America, N.A. has a January 2014 termination date and is collateralized by the accounts receivable and inventory of Titan and certain of its domestic subsidiaries. During the first three months of 2012 and at March 31, 2012, there were no borrowings under the credit facility. Outstanding letters of credit were $12.0 million at March 31, 2012, leaving $88.0 million of unused availability on the credit facility. The credit facility contains certain financial covenants, restrictions and other customary affirmative and negative covenants. Titan is in compliance with these covenants and restrictions as of March 31, 2012. Other debt Brazil Term Loan In May 2011, the Company entered into a two-year, unsecured $10.0 million Term Loan with Bank of America, N.A. (BoA Term Loan) to provide working capital for the Sao Paulo, Brazil manufacturing facility. Borrowings under the BoA Term Loan bear interest at a rate equal to LIBOR plus 200 basis points. The BoA Term Loan shall be a minimum of $5.0 million with the option for an additional $5.0 million loan for a maximum of $10.0 million. The BoA Term Loan is due May 2013. The Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement and cross currency swap transaction with Bank of America Merrill Lynch Banco Multiplo S.A. that is designed to convert the outstanding $5.0 million US Dollar based LIBOR loan to a Brazilian Real based CDI loan. See Note 10 for additional information. As of March 31, 2012, the Company had $5.0 million outstanding on this loan and the interest rate including the effect of the swap agreement was approximately 12%. Brazil Revolving Line of Credit The Company's wholly-owned Brazilian subsidiary, Titan Pneus Do Brasil Ltda ("Titan Brazil"), has a revolving line of credit (Brazil line of credit) established with Bank of America Merrill Lynch Banco Multiplo S.A. in May 2011 that is secured by a $12.0 million line of credit between the Company and Bank of America N.A. under the Company's $100.0 million credit facility. Titan Brazil could borrow up to 16.0 million Brazilian Reais, which equates to approximately $8.8 million dollars as of March 31, 2012, for working capital purposes. Under the terms of the Brazil line of credit, borrowings, if any, bear interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 247 basis points. At March 31, 2012 there were no borrowings outstanding on this line of credit.
