The Company entered into a new senior unsecured revolving Credit Agreement (the “Facility”) on January 18, 2013, which provides for an aggregate availability up to $75.0 million with an option to increase the facility by an additional $50.0 million, subject to lender consent, and a $15.0 million sub-limit for letters of credit. The facility matures on January 18, 2018 and replaces the senior secured Loan Agreement dated as of March 14, 2011 (the “Previous Facility”), which was terminated on the same date the Facility was entered into with the exception of the letters of credits that are still outstanding under the Previous Facility. Borrowings under the Facility bear interest, at the election of the Company, at the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus the applicable margin or the base rate plus the applicable margin. The base rate is the highest of (i) the published prime rate, (ii) the federal funds rate plus 1.50%, or (iii) one month LIBOR plus 1.50%. The applicable margin is based on a percentage per annum determined in accordance with a specified pricing grid based on the total funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. For LIBOR loans, the applicable margin will range from 0.50% to 1.50% per annum, while for base rate loans the applicable margin will range from 0.00% to 0.25% per annum. The Company is required to pay a quarterly commitment fee of 0.25% to 0.35% on the Facility’s unused commitments based on the Company’s funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio. The financial covenants include a maximum consolidated funded debt to adjusted EBITDA ratio and a minimum adjusted EBITDA. As of April 30, 2013, the Company is in compliance with its financial covenants. In addition, there is a domestic liquidity requirement that the Company maintain $50.0 million in unrestricted cash and/or marketable securities (excluding any marketable securities that are held in trust for the settlement of the Company’s obligation under certain deferred compensation plans) as a condition to consummating permitted acquisitions, paying dividends to our shareholders and share repurchases of our common stock.

At April 30, 2013 and 2012, there was $2.7 million and $2.9 million, respectively, of standby letters of credit issued under the Previous Facility.
