Item 1.01.   Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 30, 2010, we entered into a credit agreement with a group of banks led by Bank of America, N.A. The new credit agreement provides for a $100 million revolving credit facility, which can be increased by up to $50 million at our request and subject to the agreement of our lenders. We currently have no borrowings outstanding under the new credit facility.
Borrowings under the new credit facility will bear interest at a rate equal to the sum of a base rate or a Eurodollar rate plus an applicable margin, depending on the type of loan and our consolidated leverage ratio. The payment of our indebtedness under the new credit facility is secured by pledges of 100% of the capital stock of our domestic subsidiaries and 65% of the capital stock of our foreign subsidiaries, and is guaranteed by our domestic subsidiaries. The new credit agreement contains customary financial and non-financial covenants. Upon the occurrence of an event of default, the lenders may declare that all principal, interest and other amounts owed are immediately due and payable and may exercise any other available right or remedy. The events of default include, without limitation, non-payment of amounts owed, failure to perform covenants, breach of representations and warranties, institution of insolvency proceedings, entry of certain judgments, and occurrence of a change in control. The new credit facility matures on June 30, 2014. A copy of the new credit agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1.02.   Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 30, 2010, and in connection with entering into the credit agreement described in Item 1.01, we paid $34,097.22 in payment of all indebtedness, fees, expenses, liabilities and other obligations under our existing credit facility with a group of lenders led by Bank of America, N.A., cancelled the credit facility, and terminated the related credit agreement. We incurred no penalty as a result of the prepayment of the indebtedness, the cancellation of the credit facility, or the termination of the credit agreement.
