Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On March 11, 2011, Hanger Orthopedic Group, Inc. (the Company) entered into an amendment (the Amendment) to its Credit Agreement dated as of December 1, 2010 (the Credit Agreement), by and among the Company, the Lenders party thereto and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, Issuer and Swing Line Lender. The Amendment (i) reduces the interest rate margin applicable to the term loans under the Credit Agreement by 0.75% and (ii) reduces the LIBOR floor applicable to the term loans under the Credit Agreement from 1.50% to 1.00%. The Amendment also liberalizes the Companys maximum permitted consolidated leverage ratio (which is defined as the ratio of the Companys consolidated indebtedness to consolidated net income before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, non-cash charges and certain other items, with certain adjustments) by increasing it from the current ratio of 3.75 to 1.0 for any fiscal quarter ending during the period commencing on October 1, 2013 and thereafter to 4.00 to 1.0 for any such fiscal quarter. The Amendment also provides, with certain exceptions, for a prepayment penalty of 1% on the amount of any voluntary prepayment made by the Company of all or part of the term loans within six months after the effective date of the Amendment if such prepayment is made using the proceeds of indebtedness with an effective weighted average yield that is less than the effective weighted average yield of the term loans.
The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment filed herewith as Exhibit 4.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
