6) Long-term Debt and Notes Payable

The Company extended and modified its existing credit facility by entering into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”), dated August 31, 2011. The Company’s Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit line in the amount of $35 million, less outstanding letters of credit, through August 31, 2016 and for the Company’s $16 million term loan maturing January 30, 2014, with interest on both loans at a rate of LIBOR plus between 1.50% and 2.50% based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio. The credit facility allocates up to $20 million of the $35 million revolving credit line for the issuance of letters of credit, including certain existing letters of credit. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of the Company’s assets.

Prior to the August 31, 2011 amendment of the credit facility, the Company’s Credit Agreement provided for a revolving credit line of $35 million for working capital requirements which was committed through January 2012, with interest at LIBOR plus between 2.75% and 4.50%. In addition, the Company was required to pay a commitment fee of between 0.30% and 0.50% on the unused portion of the total credit commitment for the preceding quarter, based on the Company’s leverage ratio under the Credit Agreement.

There was nothing outstanding on our revolving credit facility at March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011. The Company had available on its credit facility $23.3 million at March 31, 2012. The credit facility allocates up to $20 million of the revolving credit line for the issuance of letters of credit. At March 31, 2012, outstanding letters of credit totaled $11.7 million. In addition, the Company is required to pay a commitment fee quarterly at a rate of between 0.25% and 0.35% per annum on the unused portion of the total revolving credit commitment, also based on the Company’s Leverage Ratio.

 

The $5.0 million subordinated promissory note with interest fixed at 6.0% was paid in its entirety in January, 2012.
