NOTE F – LINE OF CREDIT

On February 19, 2016, the Company entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (“Credit Agreement”), with Bank of America, which extends the term of the Credit Agreement to April 27, 2021.  The Credit Agreement also increases the amount the Company may borrow under the credit facility from $75,000 to up to $125,000, through October 31, 2016.  On November 1, 2016, the amount the Company may borrow will revert to $75,000 for the remainder of the agreement.  The only other modification to the Credit Agreement was an increase to the Company’s consolidated rolling four-quarter adjusted EBITDA covenant from $60,000 to equal to or greater than $100,000.

Interest is computed based on 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 $4,153, and $5,078 reduction in the available borrowing limit as of January 2, 2016 and October 1, 2016, respectively, due to existing normal course of business guarantees in certain markets.

At  October 1, 2016 there was an outstanding balance of $1,200.  The Company will be required to pay any balance on this line of credit in full at the time of maturity in April 2021 unless the line of credit is replaced or terms are renegotiated.
