NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)


1.           INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

The condensed financial statements of CPI Aerostructures, Inc. (the “Company”) as of March 31, 2012 and for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been condensed or omitted pursuant to those rules and regulations, although the Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information not misleading.

The condensed balance sheet at December 31, 2011 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. All adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary for a fair presentation for the periods presented have been reflected as required by the SEC. Such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature. It is suggested that these condensed financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011. The results of operations for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for the full year or any other interim period.

On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted the provisions of Accounting Standards Codification 220, “Comprehensive Income.”  The new guidance requires the Company to present Comprehensive Income either on one continuous Statement of Income and Comprehensive Income, or on a separate Statement of Comprehensive income.  The new guidance does not change the computation of Net Income or Comprehensive Income.


 
2.          STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION

The Company accounts for compensation expense associated with stock options based on the fair value of the options on the date of grant.

The Company’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 includes approximately $383,000 of non-cash compensation expense related to the Company’s stock options.  The Company’s net income for the three months ended March 31, 2011 includes approximately $287,000 of non-cash compensation expense related to the Company’s stock options.  The non-cash compensation expense related to all of the Company’s stock-based compensation arrangements is recorded as a component of selling, general and administrative expenses.

The estimated fair value of each option award granted was determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option valuation model.  The following weighted-average assumptions were used for the options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011:


 
2012
2011
Risk-free interest rate
0.9%
2.0%

As of March 31, 2012, all compensation cost related to non-vested stock option awards has been recognized.

Options to acquire 40,517 shares of common stock were granted on January 1, 2012 to members of our board of directors as part of their normal compensation.

During the three months ended March 31, 2012, 20,000 stock options were exercised for cash resulting in proceeds to the Company of $138,200.  During the same period an additional 10,000 options were exercised, pursuant to provisions of the stock option plan, where the Company received no cash and 4,589 shares of its common stock in exchange for the 10,000 shares issued in the exercise.  The 4,589 shares that the Company received were valued at $69,095, the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise.  Lastly, an additional 25,000 options were exercised, pursuant to provisions of the stock option plan, for a combination of cash and common shares.  The Company received $102,815 in cash and 4,333 shares in exchange for the 25,000 shares issued in this exercise.  The 4,333 shares that the Company received were valued at $69,930, the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise.

The intrinsic value of all options exercised during the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 was approximately $451,450 and $208,700, respectively.

3.           DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE

Our use of derivative instruments has been to hedge interest rates. These derivative contracts are entered into with financial institutions.  We do not use derivative instruments for trading purposes and we have procedures in place to monitor and control their use.

We record these derivative financial instruments on the condensed balance sheets at fair value.  For derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as a cash flow hedge, the effective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument is reported as a component of other comprehensive income (loss) and reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings.

 

 
CPI AEROSTRUCTURES, INC.

NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED
 
 
 
Any ineffective portion of the gain or loss on the derivative instrument for a cash flow hedge is recorded in the results of operations immediately.  For derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments, the gain or loss is recognized in the results of operations immediately.  See below for a discussion of our use of derivative instruments, management of credit risk inherent in derivative instruments and fair value information.

In October 2008 and March 2012, the Company entered into interest rate swaps with the objective of reducing our exposure to cash flow volatility arising from interest rate fluctuations associated with certain debt.  The notional amount, maturity date, and currency of these contracts match those of the underlying debt.  The Company has designated these interest rate swap contracts as cash flow hedges.  The Company measures ineffectiveness by comparing the cumulative change in the forward contact with the cumulative change in the hedged item.  No material ineffectiveness was recognized in the quarter ended March 31, 2012.  As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had a net deferred loss associated with cash flow hedges of approximately $71,000 and $33,000, respectively, due to the interest rate swap which has been included in Other Liabilities.

As a result of the use of derivative instruments, the Company is exposed to risk that the counterparties may fail to meet their contractual obligations.  Recent adverse developments in the global financial and credit markets could negatively impact the creditworthiness of our counterparties and cause one or more of our counterparties to fail to perform as expected.  To mitigate the counterparty credit risk, we only enter into contracts with carefully selected major financial institutions based upon their credit ratings and other factors, and continually assess the creditworthiness of counterparties.  To date, all counterparties have performed in accordance with their contractual obligations.

Fair Value

At March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair values of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses approximated their carrying values because of the short-term nature of these instruments.

The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap was determined by comparing the fixed rate set at the inception of the transaction to the “replacement swap rate,” which represents the market rate for an offsetting interest rate swap with the same notional amounts and final maturity date.  The market value is then determined by calculating the present value interest differential between the contractual swap and the replacement swap.

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, $71,288 and $32,988, respectively, was included in Other Liabilities related to the fair value of the Company’s interest rate swap, and $47,050 and $21,772, respectively, net of tax of $24,238 and $11,216, was included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.

The change in unrealized loss from the Company’s interest rate swaps of $(25,278) and $7,736 is included in other comprehensive income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

U.S. Government Contracts includes contracts directly with the U.S. Government and Government subcontracts.

Revisions in the estimated gross profits on contracts and contract amounts are made in the period in which the circumstances requiring the revisions occur. During the three months ended March 31, 2012 and 2011, the effect of such revisions in total estimated contract profits resulted in a decrease to the total gross profit to be earned on the contracts of approximately $600,000 and $1,200,000, respectively, from that which would have been reported had the revised estimates been used as the basis of recognition of contract profits in prior years.

Although management believes it has established adequate procedures for estimating costs to complete on uncompleted open contracts, it is possible that additional significant costs could occur on contracts prior to completion.

INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

Basic income per common share is computed using the weighted average number of shares outstanding.  Diluted income per common share for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 and 2011 is computed using the weighted-average number of shares outstanding adjusted for the incremental shares attributed to outstanding options to purchase common stock.  Incremental shares of 625,517 were used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three month period ended March 31, 2012. Incremental shares of 55,000 were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculations for the three month period ended March 31, 2012 as their exercise price was in excess of the Company’s average stock price for the respective period and, accordingly, these shares are not assumed to be exercised for the diluted earnings per share calculation, as they would be anti-dilutive.  Incremental shares of 397,844 were used in the calculation of diluted income per common share in the three months ended March 31, 2011. All incremental shares were included in the diluted earnings per share calculations for the three months ended March 31, 2011.

LINE OF CREDIT

 
 In August 2007, we entered into a revolving credit facility with Sovereign Bank (the “Sovereign Revolving Facility”), secured by all of our assets.
 
 
On May 26, 2010, the Company and Sovereign Bank entered into a third amendment to the Sovereign Revolving Facility increasing the existing revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) from an aggregate of $3.5 million to an aggregate of $4.0 million and extending the term of the revolving credit facility from August 2011 to August 2013.  In addition, the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility was decreased to (i) the greater of 3.75% or 3.25% in excess of the LIBOR Rate or (ii) the greater of 3.75% or 0.50% in excess of Sovereign Bank’s prime rate, as elected by the Company in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
 
 
On May 10, 2011, the Company entered into a fifth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, increasing the existing revolving credit facility from an aggregate of $4.0 million to an aggregate of $10.0 million and extending the term from August 2013 to August 2014.  In addition, the interest rate of borrowings under the revolving credit facility will no longer be subject to a minimum rate of 3.75%.
 
 
On September 1, 2011, the Company entered into a sixth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, dated as of August 13, 2007, as amended as of October 22, 2008, July 7, 2009, May 21, 2010, March 14, 2011 and May 10, 2011,  providing for a $3.0 million increase until November 30, 2011 of the existing revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement, from an aggregate of $10.0 million to an aggregate of $13.0 million.
 
 
On November 29, 2011, the Company entered into a seventh amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, which increased the revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement from an aggregate of $13.0 million to an aggregate of $18.0 million and extended the term of earlier terminating revolving credit loans to August 2014.  The Amendment also provides for a reduction in the interest rate of borrowings under the revolving credit facility to 2.75% in excess of the LIBOR rate or Sovereign Bank’s prime rate, as elected by the Company in accordance with the Credit Agreement, a reduction in the commitment fee to a rate of 0.4% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit commitment, commencing December 31, 2011 and the addition of a covenant to the Credit Agreement requiring that the Company maintain a ratio of Unsubordinated Liabilities to Capital Base, as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement.
 
 
As of March 31, 2012, the Company was in compliance with all of the financial covenants, as amended, contained in the Credit Agreement and $17.6 million was outstanding under the Sovereign Revolving Facility.
 
 
7.           LONG-TERM DEBT
 
 
On October 22, 2008, the Company obtained a $3.0 million term loan from Sovereign Bank to be amortized over five years (the “Sovereign Term Facility”). The Sovereign Term Facility bears interest at LIBOR (0.22% at March 31, 2012) plus 2.5% and is secured by all of the assets of the Company.
 
 
The terms and conditions of the Sovereign Revolving Facility are applicable to the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
 
Additionally, the Company and Sovereign Bank entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, in the notional amount of $3 million. Under the interest rate swap, the Company pays an amount to Sovereign Bank representing interest on the notional amount at a rate of 5.8% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR.  The effect of this interest rate swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 5.8% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
 
On March 9, 2012, the Company entered into an eighth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, which Amendment provides for an additional term loan from the Sovereign in the principal amount of $4.5 million to be amortized over five years (the “Sovereign Term Facility 2”).  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 shall be used by the Company to purchase tooling and equipment in connection with certain contracts.  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 is subject to the same acceleration provision as the Revolving Credit Loans and the Sovereign Term Facility, which provision allows  Sovereign, at its option, to declare all Loans and other outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement as due and payable upon the occurrence of any Event of Default.  The Amendment also requires a prepayment of the Sovereign Term Facility 2 upon the Company’s receipt of a termination or cancellation payment in connection with the Designated Contracts in an amount equal to the lesser of 50% of such payment or the outstanding principal balance of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.
 
 
Pursuant to the terms of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement and Schedule between Sovereign and the Company, dated October 22, 2008, the Company also entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $4.5 million.  Under the Interest Rate Swap, the Company pays an amount to  Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a fixed rate of 4.11% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 300 basis points.  The effect of this Interest Rate Swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 4.11% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Condensed Financial Statements and notes thereto contained in this report.
 

Forward Looking Statements


 
When used in this Form 10-Q and in future filings by us with the Securities and Exchange Commission, the words or phrases “will likely result,” “management expects” or “we expect,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimated” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.  Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements, each of which speaks only as of the date made.  Such statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from historical earnings and those presently anticipated or projected.  The risks are included in Item 1A - Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and Item 2 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in this Form 10-Q.  We have no obligation to publicly release the result of any revisions which may be made to any forward-looking statements to reflect anticipated or unanticipated events or circumstances occurring after the date of such statements.
 


 
Business Operations
 
 
We are engaged in the contract production of structural aircraft parts principally for the U.S. Air Force and other branches of the U.S. armed forces, either as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor to other defense prime contractors.  CPI Aero also acts as a subcontractor to prime aircraft manufacturers in the production of commercial aircraft parts.  Our strategy for growth has been focused primarily as a subcontractor for defense prime contractors.  Due to our success as a subcontractor to defense prime contractors we have pursued opportunities to increase our commercial subcontracting business.
 


 
Marketing and New Business
 
 
From the beginning of the current fiscal year through May 4, 2012, we received approximately $32.2 million of new contract awards, which included approximately $0.2 million of government prime contract awards, approximately $31.4 million of government subcontract awards and approximately $0.6 million of commercial subcontract awards, compared to a total of $46.8 million of new contract awards, of all types, in the same period last year.
 
 
Included in new contract awards are:
 


 
·  
A $12.7 million purchase order from Boeing for assemblies on the A-10 aircraft.
 
 
·  
A $10.7 million order from Goodrich Corporation for the supply of structural aerospace assemblies.  In addition, we will have, for the first time in our history, design authority for design modifications to the structure it is manufacturing.
 


 
We have approximately $952 million in formalized bids outstanding as of May 4, 2012 and continue to make bids on contracts on a weekly basis. Unawarded solicitations include two bids totaling approximately $647 million to an international aerospace company for work on the Boeing 787. While we cannot predict the probability of obtaining or the timing of awards, some of these outstanding proposals are significant in amount.

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

 


 
While historically our direct U.S. Government work has typically ranged from six months to two years, our major subcontract awards for the E-2D, A-10 and G650 average a 7 year life.  Except in cases where contract terms permit us to bill on a progress basis, we must incur upfront costs in producing assemblies, amortize the costs and bill our customers upon delivery.  Because of the upfront costs incurred, the timing of our billings and the nature of the percentage-of-completion method of accounting described below, there can be a significant disparity between the periods in which (a) costs are expended, (b) revenue and earnings are recorded and (c) cash is received.
 


 
Critical Accounting Policies
 
 
Revenue Recognition
 


 
We recognize revenue from our contracts over the contractual period under the percentage-of-completion (“POC”) method of accounting.  Under the POC method of accounting, sales and gross profit are recognized as work is performed based on the relationship between actual costs incurred and total estimated costs at the completion of the contract.  Recognized revenues that will not be billed under the terms of the contract until a later date are recorded as an asset captioned “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts.”  Contracts where billings to date have exceeded recognized revenues are recorded as a liability captioned “Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings on uncompleted contracts.”  Changes to the original estimates may be required during the life of the contract.  Estimates are reviewed monthly and the effect of any change in the estimated gross margin percentage for a contract is reflected in cost of sales in the period the change becomes known.  The use of the POC method of accounting involves considerable use of estimates in determining revenues, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods.  As a result, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash received by us during any reporting period.  We continually evaluate all of the issues related to the assumptions, risks and uncertainties inherent with the application of the POC method of accounting; however, we cannot assure you that our estimates will be accurate.  If our estimates are not accurate or a contract is terminated, we will be forced to adjust revenue in later periods. Furthermore, even if our estimates are accurate, we may have a shortfall in our cash flow and we may need to borrow money, or seek access to other forms of liquidity, to fund our work in process or to pay taxes until the reported earnings materialize as actual cash receipts.

Results of Operations
 
 
Revenue
 


 
Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $19,721,095 compared to $16,009,608 for the same period last year, representing an increase of $3,711,487 or 23%.
 
 
We generate revenue from government contracts for which we act as a prime contractor or as a subcontractor as well as from commercial contracts. Revenue generated from prime government contracts for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $1,899,397 compared to $1,341,460 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $557,937 or 41.6%. Revenue generated from government subcontracts for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $12,376,798 compared to $12,793,580 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, a decrease of $416,782 or 3.3%.  Revenue generated from commercial contracts was $5,444,900 for the three months ended March 31, 2012 compared to $1,874,568 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $3,570,332 or 190.5%.
 
 
The majority of the increase in revenue was related to increases in production of leading edges for the Gulfstream G650.
 
 
Inflation historically has not had a material effect on our operations.
 


 

 
 
Gross Profit
 
 
Gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $4,964,386 compared to $3,850,104 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $1,114,282. As a percentage of revenue, gross profit for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was 25.2% compared to 24.0% for the same period last year. Our gross margin of 25.2% for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was in line with our expected gross margin percentage range of 25%-27%.
 
 
We expect our gross margin for the full year to fall within our expected range of 25%-27%.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended March 31, 2012 were $2,104,881 compared to $1,800,422 for the three months ended March 31, 2011, an increase of $304,459, or 16.9%.    The increase is primarily due to a $128,000 increase in public fees, which was the result of our changing our policy of issuing options to most of our board of directors in the second quarter of the year.  In 2012, we issued all options to our board of directors on the first business day of the year, which will result in lower expense over the entire year.  In addition we had an increase in accounting and legal fees of $117,000.


 
Income Before Provision for Income Taxes
 


 
Income before provision for income taxes for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $2,710,320 compared to $2,012,050 for the same period last year, an increase of $698,270.
 
 
Provision for Income Taxes
 
 
Provision for income taxes was $791,000 for the three months ended March 31, 2012, or 29% of pre-tax income, compared to $644,000 or 32% of pre-tax income for the three months ended March 31, 2011.  The provision for income taxes as a percentage of pre-tax income decreased because in 2011, the Company began taking a deduction for domestic production activity which results in approximately a 2%-3% tax savings.  This deduction, however, was not estimated until the second quarter of 2011, so it was not taken in the quarter ended March 31, 2011.

Net Income
 


 
Net income for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $1,919,320, or $0.28 per basic share, compared to net income of $1,368,050, or $0.20 per basic share, for the same period last year.  Diluted income per share for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was $0.27, calculated utilizing 7,228,061 average shares outstanding.
 
 
Liquidity and Capital Resources
 


 
General
 


 
At March 31, 2012, we had working capital of $58,048,784 compared to $52,186,436 at December 31, 2011, an increase of $5,862,348, or 11.2%.
 


 
Cash Flow
 


 
A large portion of our cash is used to pay for materials and processing costs associated with contracts that are in process and which do not provide for progress payments.  Contracts that permit us to bill on a progress basis must be classified as “on time” for us to apply for progress payments.  Costs for which we are not able to bill on a progress basis are components of “Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on uncompleted contracts” on our condensed balance sheets and represent the aggregate costs and related earnings for uncompleted contracts for which the customer has not yet been billed.  These costs and earnings are recovered upon shipment of products and presentation of billings in accordance with contract terms.
 
 
Because the POC method of accounting requires us to use estimates in determining revenue, costs and profits and in assigning the amounts to accounting periods, there can be a significant disparity between earnings (both for accounting and tax purposes) as reported and actual cash that we receive during any reporting period.  Accordingly, it is possible that we may have a shortfall in our cash flow and may need to borrow money, or to raise additional capital, until the reported earnings materialize into actual cash receipts.
 
 
At March 31, 2012, we had a cash balance of $530,578 compared to $878,200 at December 31, 2011.
 
 
Our costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings increased by approximately $3.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2012.  The Boeing A-10 contract accounted for approximately $2.3 million of this increase.  Although this contract does provide for milestone billings, the Company has been limited in its ability to invoice Boeing because of the lack of performance by certain vendors.  This has resulted in us not achieving certain milestone billing events.  Additionally, the contract provides that we can’t bill Boeing for approved changes to first articles until such time as the government approves the entire A-10 wing.  We have submitted all first articles on this program and are awaiting government approval of Boeing’s complete submission.  Lastly, a significant amount of production has been completed, however such items can’t be shipped and invoiced, as we are awaiting a minor Boeing configuration change.
 
 
Because of our high growth rate, in order to perform on new programs, such as the recently announced Goodrich and Embraer programs, we may be required to expend up-front costs that may have to be amortized over a portion of production units.  In the case of significant program delays and/or program cancellations, we could be required to bear impairment charges which may be material, for costs that are not recoverable.  Such charges and the loss of up-front costs could have a material impact on our liquidity.
 
 
We continue to work to obtain better payment terms with our customers, including accelerated progress payment arrangements, as well as exploring alternative funding sources.

Line of Credit
 


 
In August 2007, we entered into a revolving credit facility with Sovereign Bank (the “Sovereign Revolving Facility”), secured by all of our assets.
 
 
On May 26, 2010, the Company entered into a third amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank increasing the existing revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) from an aggregate of $3.5 to an aggregate of $4.0 and extending the term of the revolving credit facility from August 2011 to August 2013.  In addition, the interest rate on borrowings under the revolving credit facility was decreased to (i) the greater of 3.75% or 3.25% in excess of the LIBOR Rate or (ii) the greater of 3.75% or 0.50% in excess of Sovereign Bank’s prime rate, as elected by the Company in accordance with the Credit Agreement.
 
 
On May 10, 2011, the Company entered into a fifth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, increasing the existing revolving credit facility from an aggregate of $4.0 million to an aggregate of $10.0 million and extending the term from August 2013 to August 2014.  In addition, the interest rate of borrowings under the revolving credit facility will no longer be subject to a minimum rate of 3.75%.
 
 
On September 1, 2011, the Company entered into a sixth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank, dated as of August 13, 2007, as amended as of October 22, 2008, July 7, 2009, May 21, 2010, March 14, 2011 and May 10, 2011, providing for a $3.0 million increase until November 30, 2011 of the existing revolving credit facility under the Credit Agreement, from an aggregate of $10.0 million to an aggregate of $13.0 million.
 
 
On November 29, 2011, the Company entered into a seventh amendment to the Sovereign Revolving Facility which increased the existing revolving credit facility from an aggregate of $13.0 million to an aggregate of $18.0 million and extended the term of earlier terminating revolving credit loans to August 2014.  The Amendment also provides for a reduction in the interest rate of borrowings under the revolving credit facility to 2.75% in excess of the LIBOR rate or Sovereign Bank’s prime rate, as elected by the Company in accordance with the Credit Agreement, a reduction in the commitment fee to a rate of 0.4% per annum on the average daily unused portion of the revolving credit commitment, commencing December 31, 2011 and the addition of a covenant to the Credit Agreement requiring that the Company maintain a ratio of Unsubordinated Liabilities to Capital Base, as such terms are defined in the Credit Agreement.
 
 
As of March 31, 2012, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants contained in the Credit Agreement, as amended, and $17.6 million was outstanding under the Sovereign Revolving Facility.
 
 

 
 
Term Loan
 
 
On October 22, 2008, we obtained a $3.0 million term loan from Sovereign Bank to be amortized over five years (the “Sovereign Term Facility”).  The Sovereign Term Facility bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.5% and is secured by all of our assets.
 
 
The terms and conditions of the Sovereign Revolving Facility are applicable to the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
 
Additionally, the Company and Sovereign Bank entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement, in the notional amount of $3.0 million.  Under the interest rate swap, the Company pays an amount to Sovereign Bank representing interest on the notional amount of 5.8% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one-month LIBOR plus 2.5%. The effect of this interest rate swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 5.8% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility.
 
 
On March 9, 2012, the Company entered into an eighth amendment to its credit agreement with Sovereign Bank which provides for an additional term loan from the Sovereign in the principal amount of $4.5 to be amortized over five years (the “Sovereign Term Facility 2”).  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 shall be used by the Company to purchase tooling and equipment in connection with certain contracts.  The Sovereign Term Facility 2 is subject to the same acceleration provision as the Revolving Credit Loans and Sovereign Term Facility, which provision allows the Sovereign, at its option, to declare all Loans and other outstanding amounts under the Credit Agreement as due and payable upon the occurrence of any Event of Default.  The Amendment also requires a prepayment of the Sovereign Term Facility 2 upon the Company’s receipt of a termination or cancellation payment in connection with the Designated Contracts in an amount equal to the lesser of 50% of such payment or the outstanding principal balance of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.
 
 
Pursuant to the terms of the ISDA 2002 Master Agreement and Schedule between Sovereign and the Company, dated October 22, 2008, the Company also entered into a five-year interest rate swap agreement in the notional amount of $4.5.  Under the Interest Rate Swap, the Company pays an amount to the Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a fixed rate of 4.11% and receives an amount from Sovereign representing interest on the notional amount at a rate equal to the one month LIBOR rate plus 300 basis points.  The effect of this Interest Rate Swap will be the Company paying a fixed interest rate of 4.11% over the term of the Sovereign Term Facility 2.
