Long-term Debt | 15. Long-term Debt On January 31, 2008, the Company entered into an unsecured Credit Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Bank of America, under which the Company was provided with a revolving credit line through December 31, 2008 of up to a maximum principal amount outstanding of $16,000,000. The Company borrowed the maximum amount of $16,000,000 in 2008 to finance its new facility construction and capital project validation. On December 31, 2008, the outstanding revolving credit loans were converted into a term loan with quarterly principal payments of $400,000 and a final installment of $5,200,000 due on the maturity date of December 31, 2015. Interest on the term loan was originally payable at a rate based upon, at the Company’s election, either Bank of America’s prime rate or LIBOR plus 75 basis points. The Company recorded approximately $171,000 as deferred issuance costs which continue to be amortized over the life of the debt facility. In connection with the acquisition of Anika S.r.l., the Company entered into a Consent and First Amendment to the original loan facility with Bank of America. As part of this amendment, the interest rate for Eurodollar based loans was increased and is payable at a rate based upon, at the Company’s election, either Bank of America’s prime rate or LIBOR plus 125 basis points. In addition, the Company pledged to the lender sixty-five percent (65%) of the stock of Anika Therapeutics S.r.l. We also incurred $74,000 of fees charged by Bank of America which were capitalized in accordance with ASC Subtopic 470-50, Debt – Modifications and Extinguishments, as the Consent and First Amendment represents a debt modification. The fees are being amortized over the remaining life of the debt facility. The Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the Company, affirmative and negative covenants regarding the Company’s operations, financial covenants regarding maintenance by the Company of a specified quick ratio and consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio, and events of default. We are in compliance with all covenants specified in the debt agreement. As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Company had a total outstanding debt balance of $9,600,000 and $11,200,000, respectively, of which $1,600,000 was recorded as current at each date. Long-term debt principal payments are $1,600,000 for each of the next two years with the remaining principal of $6,400,000 due in the third and final year. The estimated fair value of our debt instrument approximated book value at December 31, 2012.
