Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Results of Operations and Financial Con
On April 24, 2009, our European subsidiary Interface Europe B.V. (and certain of its European subsidiaries, collectively with Interface Europe B.V. referred to as the "Borrower") entered into an amended and restated Credit Agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with ABN AMRO Bank N.V. Under the Credit Agreement (which replaces a prior credit agreement with ABN AMRO Bank, N.V. executed on March 9, 2007), ABN AMRO will provide a credit facility (the "Facility"), until further notice, available to the Borrower. The key features of the Facility are as follows:
· The Facility provides availability for borrowings and bank guarantees in varying aggregate amounts over time as follows:
PERIOD EUROS (in millions)
1 May 2009 - 30 September 2009 32
1 October 2009 - 30 September 2010 26
1 October 2010 - 30 September 2011 20
1 October 2011 - 30 September 2012 14
From 1 October 2012 8
· The Facility is available to the Borrower for general working capital needs and for paying dividends.
· A sublimit of 5 million Euros applies to bank guarantees with a tenor exceeding one year.
· Interest on borrowings under the Facility is charged at varying rates computed by applying a margin of 1% over ABN AMRO's Euro base rate (consisting of the leading refinancing rate as determined from time to time by the European Central Bank plus a debit interest surcharge), which base rate is subject to a minimum of 3.5% per annum. Fees on bank guarantees and documentary letters of credit are charged at a rate of 1% per annum or part thereof on the maximum amount and for the maximum duration of each guarantee or documentary letter of credit issued. A Facility fee of 0.5% per annum is payable with respect to the Facility amount.
· The Facility is secured by liens on certain real property, personal property and other assets of the Borrower.
· The Facility also includes certain financial covenants (which require the Borrower and its subsidiaries to maintain a minimum interest coverage ratio, total debt/EBITDA ratio and tangible net worth/total assets) and affirmative and negative covenants, and other provisions that restrict the Borrower's ability (and the ability of certain of the Borrower's subsidiaries) to take certain actions.
The foregoing description of the material terms of the Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.1.
