8. LINE OF CREDIT Effective May 31, 2011, we extended the term of our $60 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolver”) from December 31, 2012 to December 31, 2013. All other terms of our Revolver remain unchanged. Our Revolver is secured by our real estate, machinery and equipment, and fixtures. Amounts borrowed under the Revolver bear interest, at our option, at the prime lending rate established by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. or LIBOR plus 1.5 percent. We pay a fee on a quarterly basis of one-fourth of one percent per annum on the weighted-average unused portion of the Revolver. At December 31, 2011, no amounts were borrowed under the Revolver, and we had outstanding letters of credit totaling $15.3 million, which reduced the unused portion of the Revolver to $44.7 million. We are required to maintain certain financial covenants, including a minimum current ratio of 1.25 to 1.0, a net worth minimum requirement, debt to net worth ratio of 0.5 to 1.0, and an earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) to interest expense ratio of 4.0 to 1.0. As of December 31, 2011, we were in compliance with these covenants. |
