Pursuant to the terms of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the Credit Agreement) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the administrative agent, collateral agent, lender and export-related lender and the other lenders party thereto, Stewart & Stevenson LLC and certain of its subsidiaries (the Company) exercised $75 million of the $125 million accordion feature in the Credit Agreement on July 11, 2012. With this exercise, the Credit Agreement provides for a $325 million asset-based revolving credit facility, which is expandable by a $50 million accordion, and is secured by substantially all accounts receivable, inventory and property, plant and equipment of the Company. The Credit Agreement continues to operate pursuant to its existing terms and conditions, as contemplated therein for the exercise of the accordion, which results in the automatic increase of certain thresholds.
