Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On August 13, 2013, Luby’s, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a credit agreement among the Company, the lenders from time to time party thereto, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, and Amegy Bank, National Association (“Amegy Bank”), as Syndication Agent (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement is a $70 million revolving credit facility expiring September 1, 2017 (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). The Revolving Credit Facility may, subject to the agreement by the lenders to provide the necessary commitments, be increased by up to an additional $20 million for a total facility size of $90.0 million. The Revolving Credit Facility terminates on, and all amounts owing thereunder must be repaid on, September 1, 2017.

 

Borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility will bear interest at (1) a base rate equal to the greater of (a) the federal funds effective rate plus one-half of 1% and (b) prime, plus, in either case, an applicable spread that ranges from 0.75% to 1.75% per annum, or (2) the London InterBank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable spread that ranges from 2.50% to 3.50% per annum. The applicable spread under each option is dependent upon certain measures of the Company’s financial performance at the time of election. Interest is payable quarterly, or in more frequent intervals if LIBOR applies.

 

The Company also pays a quarterly commitment fee based on theunused portion of the Revolving Credit Facility, which is also dependent upon the Company’s financial performance, ranging from 0.30% to 0.40% per annum. Finally, the Company is obligated to pay to the lenders a one-time fee in connection with the closing of the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Indebtedness under the Revolving Credit Facility is secured by a security interest in, among other things, all of the Company’s present and future personal property and all of the personal property of its guarantors (other than the Excluded Assets (as defined therein)) and all Scheduled Real Property (as defined therein) of the Company and its subsidiaries.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility contains customary covenants and restrictions on the Company’s ability to engage in certain activities, including financial performance covenants, asset sales and acquisitions, and contains customary events of default. Specifically, among other things, the Company is required to maintain a minimum Debt Service Coverage Ratio (as defined therein) of not less than 2.50 to 1.00, and a Lease Adjusted Leverage Ratio (as defined therein) or not more than 4.25 to 1.00. As of August 13, 2013, the Company was in full compliance with all covenants with respect to the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

All amounts owing by the Company under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the subsidiaries of the Company.

 

Christopher J. Pappas, the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer, is a member of the Advisory Board of Amegy Bank, which is a lender under, and Syndication Agent of, the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

 

Item 1.02.  Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

The Revolving Credit Facility described above in Item 1.01 replaces the Company’s $50.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Prior Credit Facility”). The Prior Credit Facility was created by the Credit Agreement, dated as of November 9, 2009, among the Company, the lenders party thereto, Wells Fargo and Amegy Bank, as Documentation Agents, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, National Association, as Administrative Agent, as amended by First Amended to Credit Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2010, Second Amendment to Credit Agreement, dated as of July 26, 2010, Third Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of September 30, 2010, Fourth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of October 31, 2010, Fifth Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of August 25, 2011, Six Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of October 20, 2011 and Seventh Amendment to Credit Agreement dated as of February 14, 2013. The Prior Credit Facility was terminated on August 13, 2013 in connection with the Company’s entry into the Revolving Credit Facility.

 

Christopher J. Pappas is a member of the Advisory Board of Amegy Bank, which was a lender under, and Documentation Agent of, the Prior Credit Facility.
