Unsecured Term Notes We entered into a note agreement dated August 11, 2008 that provided for the issuance of $11.0 million of unsecured term notes with a fixed interest rate of 8.01% and a term of seven years. Principal payments of $2.2 million per year are due on the notes beginning August 11, 2011. The remaining principal payments are payable over an average term of 0.3 years through August 11, 2015. Any principal prepayments would be assessed a penalty as defined in the agreement. The agreement contains customary financial and other covenants as defined in the agreement. As of May 3, 2015, we have one remaining annual payment of $2.2 million due on August 11, 2015. Revolving Credit Agreement –United States As of May 3, 2015, we had an unsecured credit agreement with Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. ("Wells Fargo') that provided for an unsecured revolving loan commitment of $10.0 million to be used to finance working capital and general corporate purposes. The amount of borrowings that were outstanding under the credit agreement with Culp Europe at April 27, 2014, noted below decreased the $10.0 million available. Interest was charged at a rate (applicable interest rate of 1.78% and 1.75% at May 3, 2015 and April 27, 2014, respectively) equal to the one-month LIBOR rate plus a spread based on the ratio of debt to EBITDA as defined in the agreement. The credit agreement contained customary financial and other covenants as defined in the agreement and was set to expire August 31, 2015. Our credit agreement with Wells Fargo contained a financial covenant that limited our capital expenditures to $10 million in any fiscal year. Effective March 3, 2015, Wells Fargo increased our capital expenditure limit from $10 million to $12 million for fiscal 2015, as a result of the capital expansion plan associated with our mattress fabrics segment. Our capital expenditures were $10.5 million for fiscal 2015, and as a result, we are not in violation of this financial covenant. Effective July 10, 2015, we amended the Credit Agreement to extend the expiration date to August 31, 2017 and maintain the annual capital expenditure limit of $12 million noted above. At May 3, 2015, and April 27, 2014, there were $250,000 and $195,000 in outstanding letters of credit (all of which related to workers compensation) provided by the Credit Agreement. There were no borrowings outstanding under the agreement associated with our U.S. operations at May 3, 2015, and April 27, 2014. Revolving Credit Agreement - China We have an unsecured credit agreement associated with our operations in China that provides for a line of credit up to 40 million RMB (approximately $6.4 million USD at May 3, 2015), expiring on February 9, 2016. This agreement has an interest rate determined by the Chinese government. There were no borrowings under this agreement as of May 3, 2015 and April 27, 2014. Revolving Credit Agreement – Culp Europe At April 27, 2014, we had an unsecured credit agreement with Wells Fargo that incurred interest at WIBOR (Warsaw Interbank Offered Rate) plus 2% (applicable interest rate of 4.38% at April 27, 2014). There were $586,000 (1.8 million Polish Zloty) in borrowings outstanding under the agreement at April 27, 2014. Effective May 2, 2014, we converted our 1.8 million Polish Zloty ($586,000 USD) denominated borrowings under this agreement to EURO denominated borrowings totaling €424,000 ($588,000 USD). In addition, our applicable interest rate was converted to EURO LIBOR plus 2%. At May 3, 2015, no borrowings were outstanding this agreement, as the outstanding balance was paid in full during the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Overall Our loan agreements require, among other things, that we maintain compliance with certain financial covenants. At May 3, 2015, the company was in compliance with these financial covenants. Interest paid during 2015, 2014, and 2013 totaled $268,000 $466,000, and $666,000, respectively.
