NOTE I – LONG-TERM DEBT AND LINE OF CREDIT

The Company has a $75,000 line of credit with Bank of America. Interest is computed at the bank’s Prime Rate or LIBOR, adjusted by features specified in the Credit Agreement. The collateral for this line of credit is the pledge of the capital stock of certain subsidiaries of the Company, set forth in a separate pledge agreement with the bank. Part of the credit agreement is that any existing bank guarantees are considered a reduction of the overall availability of credit and part of the covenant calculation. This resulted in a $3,800, and $4,575 reduction in the available borrowing limit as of December 28, 2013 and January 3, 2015, respectively, due to existing normal course of business guarantees in certain markets. The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants based on adjusted EBITDA and a debt coverage ratio.

 

There was no outstanding balance on this line of credit at December 28, 2013 or at January 3, 2015.  The Company will be required to pay any balance on this line of credit in full at the time of maturity in April 2016 unless the line of credit is replaced or terms are renegotiated.
