Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.
On November 25, 2013, Conn’s, Inc. (the “Company”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a First Amendment (the “Amendment”) to Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September 26, 2012 (the “Loan Agreement”), among the Company, as parent and guarantor, Conn Appliances, Inc., Conn Credit I, LP and Conn Credit Corporation, Inc., as borrowers, certain banks and financial institutions named therein, as Lenders, and Bank of America, N.A., a national banking association, as Administrative Agent for the Lenders.
The Amendment increases the revolving facility commitment by $265 million to $850 million and extends the maturity date to November 25, 2017. The Amendment also increases the accordion feature which now allows the Company to increase the revolving credit line up to an additional aggregate amount of $300 million. The interest rate spread has also been reduced under the Amendment by 25 basis points. In the case of base rate revolving loans, the spread has been reduced to a range from 1.5% to 2.25%, and in the case of LIBOR revolving loans, to a range from 2.5% to 3.25%, in each case based on the leverage ratio. In addition, the Amendment, among other things, (i) increases the basket for capital expenditures from $40 million to $75 million, and (ii) reduces the cash recovery covenant from 4.74% to 4.50% for each month.
The foregoing description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety to the full text of (i) the Amendment which is attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference, and (ii) the Loan Agreement which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 10.5.4 to the Company’s Form 10-Q/A for the quarterly period ended October 31, 2012 (File No. 1-34956) as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 11, 2012.
